40. Chills
"Yes," Ren Baoquan said with some indignation," That year he told me that he was going to go out, quit his job as a civil servant in the county town and asked me to help him take care of Aunt Zhuoer, Aunt Zhuoer was a relative of him, very reluctant, but for his future he agreed, at the beginning there was a letter back, at that time the village installed a telephone, he would occasionally call one, and then there was no news at all, Aunt Zhuoer was sick in the third month after he left, sometimes good and sometimes bad, and it was a little bad until the winter, let me find him back to see the last face, I comforted her while treating her while looking for Li Qingze, but he was the same as missing, how could he not be found, Aunt Zhuoer held a needle and thread every day in front of the telephone in the village and waited for him, I couldn't wait and went to the big stone tablet at the entrance of the village to wait for him, but I still didn't wait, and it didn't work until the spring of the next year. When he came, he called his name. Ren Baoquan's eyes were slightly red when he said about the past, "I heard that his Qingze Group is getting bigger and bigger over the years, and he is also a veritable big boss, but he has never come back once, he was the only college student in the village, and he was the first high-achieving student of BJ University in our county. ”
Tang Xin listened quietly to him talking about the past, a chill in his heart, his eyebrows frowned slightly, and he could no longer see the sweet look on his face. Ren Baoquan saw that her expression was wrong, and then he remembered that Li Qingze was always Tang Xin's biological father no matter what, and it was inappropriate to say bad things about his father in front of his daughter, so he sighed and said, "I'm sorry, little Tang Xin, forgive my uncle, these words have been held in my heart for a long time, Aunt Zhuo'er has been too bitter in this life, I don't vomit or be unhappy, I don't take into account your feelings, it's my uncle." ”
Tang Xin raised his eyes and met his eyes, and said seriously, "Uncle Ren, are you sure that grandma died after he left the ancient village?"
Ren Baoquan looked at Tang Xin's eyes and said inexplicably, "Yes, when it was almost May 98, Li Qingze left the village in October 97. Aunt Zhuoer has been sick for a long time, and everyone in the village has gone to see her, and the farewell ceremony for her departure was still held in the Lusheng Ping just now, and the coffin I personally carried was sent up the mountain. ”
Tang Xin's eyes were cold, and he sighed lightly and said, "On October 21, 97, Li Qingze went to Tang Garden to find his grandfather, saying that his mother passed away due to illness, and he was also dismissed from the unit and lost his job because of his mother's filial piety in front of the bed for a long time, and asked his grandfather to take him in to find a future in the Tang family, hehe," Tang Xin chuckled, "My lovely father really found a good future for himself." ”
Everyone was shocked.
"What?!" Ren Baoquan exclaimed incredulously, "He, he!" His powerful thick hands couldn't help but tremble slightly. In the end, he couldn't say the next words, there have been many reports in the newspapers about Li Qingze and the Tang family over the years, and he still didn't believe it, thinking it was scribbled, but now it seems that most of those things are true, and this bastard thing is really capable of doing it!
Tang Xin stretched his brows, held Ren Baoquan's trembling big hand, and comforted softly, "It's all over, Uncle Ren." ”
Ren Baoquan opened his mouth, sighed fiercely, patted Tang Xin's hand and said, "Good boy, don't talk about it, let's go to school." After saying that, he walked forward first.
Tang Xin saw Ren Baoquan's footsteps a little erratic, obviously this matter stimulated him a lot, and just as he wanted to step forward, Mu Junyao grabbed her shoulder and said softly, "Give him some time, the relatives he grew up with since childhood are so ruthless and unrighteous for his own future, he needs to digest it well." ”
Tang Xin felt a chill in his heart, "Reckless of human morality! It's really something that my father can do." ”
Mu Junyao patted her thin shoulder, her big hand conveyed warm power to her, Tang Xin raised his eyes and smiled brightly at him, "It's okay, I've experienced things that are more reckless than this." ”
Mu Junyao's eyes flashed slightly, his chin rested on the top of her head, and he said softly, "With me, you will never experience it again in the future, believe me." ”
Tang Xin's heart warmed, the corners of his mouth rose, and then his face straightened, and he pushed him away, "Bad guy, can't you take advantage of it for a day?!"
After speaking, he jumped up and caught up with Ren Baoquan, and obediently held his arm, "Uncle Ren, the ancient village is really beautiful, I don't even want to leave, is there anything delicious here?" ”
"Hehe, it's so much more delicious, there are wild vegetable buns, pickled meat, pickled fish, pickled duck, pickled bamboo shoots, and your mother's favorite sour soup fresh fish ......"
Mu Junyao smiled and looked at Tang Xin, who was obediently coquettish in front of him, and turned back to Tang Xin, who was grimacing at him, and shook his head helplessly.
"Miss Tang is in a much better mood. Qin Hao said with a smile behind him, "I knew how good it would be to bring her earlier." ”
Mu Junyao had a smile in her eyes, and her heart was slowly opening to him. Seeing that she turned her head and no longer touched herself, Mu Junyao straightened her face and ordered, "My cheap old man played such a big game of chess for his glory and wealth, even the old lady doesn't want it, I don't think he gives up so easily, pay attention, add manpower to Ah Qiang, don't make any mistakes, I don't want Tang Xin to be hurt again." ”
"Yes. ”
The new primary school was built in the direction of the hotel to the new village, in order not to destroy the pattern of the village, but also for the convenience of the children on this side of the new village, it is the best in the open space between the two villages, and after the completion of the original name, it is called the stilted building primary school.
Tang Xin looked at the school in front of him, and remembered his grandfather, there is a teaching building, a separate kindergarten, a library and indoor hall, a separate canteen, two teachers' dormitory buildings, a standard running track, two standard basketball courts and a small football field, I heard that the primary school was built that year, and no one wanted to come because the teacher was stumped, so my grandfather promised the local education committee that Tang was responsible for providing a separate subsidy for all teachers who went to the stilted building primary school to teach in addition to the salary, which was issued once every three months, and the teacher's family could stay in the Tang Resort Hotel for free with proof when visiting relatives, and at the same time, strict requirements were also imposed on teachers, so the stilted building primary school has become a well-known primary school in the local area.
Mu Junyao asked Ah Qiang and them to stay outside the school, and only took Qin Hao into the school, mainly because they were dressed too eye-catching, just like Tang Xin said, they were dressed in black and black pants, for fear of scaring the children. Tang Xin smiled sweetly at his intimate approach, this man is indeed likable.
Ren Baoquan led the three of them to meet the school's principal Hao, principal Hao is the only teacher in the previous stilted building primary school, is about to retire, I heard that Tang Xin is here, I am very happy, I have to take her to see the children in class, Tang Xin does not want to affect the children, thought about it and said, otherwise it is good to go to the kindergarten, and watching a group of children playing is unlikely to affect their studies, so everyone came to the kindergarten.
The kindergarten of the stilted building is divided into three classes, the town is only so big, the population is so much, enough, there is a teacher in each class, separate teaching classes, usually play together, Tang Xin went to the three classes of children are taking music lessons together, Tang Xin heard that they were learning to sing the bear song and happily joined.
Mu Junyao looked at the little woman who was happily playing the piano and teaching the children to sing with a smile in her eyes, and the innocent and sweet smile on her face affected everyone around her, and her heart was very soft.
"What a good girl. Ren Baoquan hugged his hands, looked at Tang Xin with a smile on his face, and said sincerely, "It would be nice if her mother was still here!"
Mu Junyao smiled, "Auntie is watching from the sky." ”
"yes, yes. Ren Baoquan nodded and agreed.
Later, they played games with the children for a while, and it was not until the kitchen aunt came to inform them that the children's lunch was ready, and they said goodbye to the principal and left the school.
Ren Baoquan happily opened his mouth and invited Tang Xin, "Little Tang Xin, let's go, go home with my uncle for lunch." ”
Tang Xin smiled sweetly and said, "Uncle Ren, I really want to promise you, but you see, Mr. Mu and a few of his colleagues can't be fed with a little food, so let's wait for Auntie to be fully prepared next time and we'll go, okay?"
Ren Baoquan laughed and said, "What a caring girl, you really said it, your aunt probably only prepared meals for a few of us." ”
Mu Junyao smiled and said, "Let's go back to the hotel to eat, so we won't trouble Uncle Ren." ”
Ren Baoquan said heartily, "It's not troublesome, the main thing is that I didn't expect that there are these young men, but I can't let the guests go hungry, this is not the rule of our ancient village, in this way, change it to dinner, at 6 o'clock in the evening, I will pick you up, go to my house to eat, uncle will make you a table of the flavor of our ancient village." ”
Tang Xin smiled and didn't answer, and looked at Mu Junyao, this man was not a master who could eat other people's food casually, she didn't dare to help him agree.
Mu Junyao smiled and said, "Okay." But you don't have to pick us up, we'll find a place, see you in the evening. ”
"Good, good. That's it. Ren Baoquan happily said goodbye and left.
Tang Xin watched Ren Baoquan's brisk footsteps walk far away before he smiled and joked to Mu Junyao, "Has Mr. Mu ever eaten a meal with such a small pot and small stove in a small courtyard as a farmhouse?
Mu Junyao approached her gently, "So Miss Tang is worried about me?"
Tang Xin pursed his lips, "I'm idle!" and walked forward after speaking.
Mu Junyao hurriedly followed, her two long white legs had already attracted the sideways eyes of many men, coupled with that trouble-making face, he couldn't let those bees and butterflies smell the fragrance, he hadn't smelled enough.
"Where are you going?" Mu Junyao scared off a man who wanted to lean up and talk with his eyes, and asked, this is not the direction back to the hotel.
Tang Xin happily looked east and west, there were many vendors selling handmade products on the old street, most of them were local residents, there were many old people selling local embroidery, and there were also those selling local snacks, hearing Mu Junyao asking, he smiled and looked back at Qin Hao Alin who was uncomfortable, "I'll take you to eat something delicious first, and then take them to buy a few clothes, you look at them, one by one is about to be regarded as the underworld." ”
In addition to Mu Junyao and Ah Qiang wearing civilian clothes, the three of them are dressed in straight black suits, with shiny leather shoes, basically you need to add a pair of sunglasses or something to shoot the people in black, and Ah Qiang is not prepared, and he is still wearing yesterday's body, which should be very uncomfortable.
When Qin Hao and the others heard this, they were all grateful, and Qin Hao said with tears in his eyes, "It's still Miss Tang's intimacy! Thank you, Miss Tang." "A few of them have been stared at since the morning, and it is also, such a beautiful place to relax and relax, they are really out of place, and they are embarrassed to go out if they don't change them out.
Mu Junyao glanced at them and said lightly, "I think it's very good, very handsome." ”
Tang Xinbai glanced at him, "Handsome is certainly handsome, but you also take into account the mood of your subordinates, besides, they will also wear this when you go to climb the mountain tomorrow?" Seeing that the man didn't care, he muttered, "It's not considerate at all." ”
Mu Junyao had a smile on her face, approached her, and said ambiguously, "With the boss's wife caring for her subordinates, the boss is happy." ”
Tang Xin rolled his eyes, chose not to hear, and walked towards the stall that exuded fragrance in front of him, only to see a middle-aged woman wearing a national costume diligently flipping through the things on the stove in front of her, Tang Xin took a closer look, it was not an iron pot or an iron plate, but a stone, with several dough-like things on it, the color was gray-green, gray-green, and the fragrance was emitted from here, Tang Xin took a deep breath and asked happily, "Boss, what is this?"
"Hehe," the woman looked at Tang Xin's greedy face, happy for the popularity of her own food, "This is the wild vegetable bun from our ancient village, let's try it." "Marly's start is recommended for guests.
Tang Xin nodded busily, "Well, okay." Licking his small mouth, he took the dough wrapped in leaves in the woman's hand, blew it and couldn't wait to take a bite, a fragrant smell suddenly spread in his mouth, Tang Xin smiled sweetly and said to the woman, "It's delicious, help me get it again, five." Tang Xin looked at the men behind him. Sure enough, when they saw Qin Hao, they also looked interested.
"Okay. The woman happily responded, and the work in her hands did not stop, and she quickly wrapped the dough in leaves and put it on the plate in front of her.
Tang Xin picked one up and handed it to Mu Junyao, "Come on, try it." He turned his eyes and beckoned to the few people behind, "Qin Hao, Ah Qiang, come over and eat." ”
"Thank you, Miss Tang," Qin Hao and the others came over with a smile when they were summoned, and one by one they started unceremoniously, and then let out a satisfied exclamation.
Tang Xin slowly ate the dumplings in his hand, his eyes glanced at the indifferent man in front of him, raised his eyebrows at him, the man glanced at her, turned his head to the side, Tang Xin pouted, "Mr. Mu is really boring, hum!" The pretty face twisted his face, and he dropped a sentence "You pay!" and left.
