Jiang Xi's so-called method is...... She wants to pretend to be Wang Dasheng's loyal "brainless fan" of his lover, and then go to see her and find her to "chat very happily".

I thought to myself, she has not even talked to anyone and she has "chatted happily", when she gets there, will people pay attention to her?

On the weekend, I accompanied Jiang Xi to Wang Dasheng's house, standing under a row of small high-rise buildings that didn't look very spectacular, and I sent a message to Wang Dasheng: Let's go downstairs.

Wang Dasheng's figure soon appeared at the door of the unit, and he was dressed much more casually when he met this time, which looked much more pleasing to the eye than at the dinner before.

It's just that he still has a sacrosanct arrogance on his face, and the first sentence he said was not a greeting, but a slightly panicked admonition: "When I met my wife for a while, don't mention the adaptation of the script, just say that you are her old fan, and I have always liked her writing, and I regret that she didn't continue to write, and you came this time to discuss with her and help her continue the article." ”

When I peeked at Jiang Xi, she had already nodded in agreement, but as soon as Wang Dasheng turned around, she immediately pouted at me and grimaced.

I scratched my head, feeling that letting Jiang Xi say so many words against her will at one time was really a challenge to her upright temperament, and I hope she will "reveal her true form" after a while.

Wang Dasheng's family lives on the eighth floor, and the door lock is fingerprinted, I don't know if it is because he is worried or the sensor lock is not very sensitive, he tried several times before opening the door.

I have also come to see the house in this community, and I don't have the impression of a particularly luxurious large apartment, and sure enough, after walking in, I saw a somewhat kind three-bedroom apartment, and the living room was quite spacious, and we were naturally invited to sit on the sofa.

Jiang Xi was still quite surprised to see Wang Dasheng's wife for the first time, she saw that some of the doors on the left and right sides of the living room were closed, and some were hidden, so she lowered her voice and asked, "Your wife...... What about her?"

Wang Dasheng pointed us in the direction with his eyes, and Jiang Xi and I looked at the door diagonally opposite the sofa at the same time, and seemed to hear the intermittent noise coming from inside.

I listened to it for a few seconds, and it didn't feel like dialogue or background music from a TV series, and there was a faint sound of swords "clanging and clanging".

Is this watching a martial arts movie?

Wang Dasheng knocked lightly on the door twice, "Teacher Jiang and his lover have arrived, you ...... Are you done with that?"

"No, I don't. ”

"Can you pause for a moment?" Wang Dasheng stood sideways by the door, trying to see through the crack in the door.

"No, you can't. ”

Jiang Xi and I are a little at each other's faces, let's not count us as guests, at least Wang Dasheng should have told his wife about our intention before we came, but what kind of hospitality was it that he was treated so coldly as soon as he entered the door?

But I saw that Jiang Xi still looked very patient, and I also took back the unhappiness that I was about to come out of.

At this time, Wang Dasheng withdrew his hand, turned his head and nodded to the two of us, and sighed: "Trouble wait a little longer, that, what to drink?"

"No, no, no. Jiang Xi patted his backpack, "We brought our own." ”

"Good. Wang Dasheng seemed to have something on his mind, and sat alone on the single-group sofa on the side.

I subconsciously glanced at the hidden door twice, suddenly pushed Jiang Xi with my elbow, and then took out my mobile phone and sent her a message: "I remember that Wang Dasheng's wife is suspected of depression, right?"

Jiang Xi replied to the message: "Well, I also specially checked the relevant information, so I was prepared." ”

I just wanted to ask Jiang Xi what information he had checked, but suddenly there was a shout from the room, and then something slammed into the door and fell to the ground with a "bang".

Wang Dasheng hurriedly stepped forward and pushed the door open, and I heard his voice soft, as if he were saying a word of comfort.

"I don't want to talk today!

A word of comfort got such a response, but Wang Dasheng didn't show the slightest irritability, picked up the thing that his wife threw at the door just now from the ground, and handed it back, "It's your fan, really, people came all the way to help you continue to write that article."

"Where did I come from? Where did I come from? Wang Dasheng, do you think I'm so stupid, do you think I'm still dreaming of the Spring and Autumn Festival? Don't be funny, I'm not worthy, you let people go back, you don't have to show jokes to others here." ”

His wife's words did sound dejected, but anyone could tell that she was not self-defeating, but unusually aggressive.

"It's a real fan, and I really want to finish writing your article, didn't you say it yourself...... Turnip greens have their own love, no matter how it is written, can you still gain one or two true love fans?"

Speaking of this, Jiang Xi stuffed the backpack into my hand, stood up and walked to the door, and said softly, "Is it Meng Nanda?"

As soon as she said this, I suddenly felt an eerie silence permeate the whole room, and Wang Dasheng turned around mechanically and pulled a mechanical smile at Jiang Xi, who was standing at the door.

"Hello, are you Meng Nanda?" Jiang Xi repeated the opening sentence that was extremely polite.

"Xiaocao Mingnan", this is the pen name of Wang Dasheng's wife.

And Jiang Xi blurted out "Meng Nanda", which is a title that has never appeared in her book review area, and when I talked with Jiang Xi around the fireplace at night in those days, I flipped her book review area back and forth several times, and gained a lot of happiness.

Her sentence is not unreasonable, as long as an article is well written and has a correct attitude, even if there are a few poisonous points, it seems that it can attract some readers, everyone has their own love, maybe some readers are like this feeling of "returning to the basics"? Even Teacher Jiang Xi solemnly gave her a score of five for this book, saying: At least ten years ago, it was a passing president's article.

"This is Jiang Xi, she really is your loyal reader. ”

"Meng Nanda, are you really not going to continue to write your essay? It's a pity!" Jiang Xi acted in a play, which was really impressive, especially when she opened her mobile phone and flipped through several book reviews urging changes, some of which were even published last year.

"A lot of these are my trumpets, to be honest, you didn't push this article well, if you pushed it well, the results would definitely not be like this. ”

As he spoke, Jiang Xi had unconsciously moved into the room, and from my point of view, a bedside table was placed at the door as soon as he entered the door, and the head of the bed was facing the door, and Wang Dasheng and Jiang Xi were standing facing the head of the bed, could it be ......

Wang Dasheng's wife is lying in bed?

Do depressed patients need long-term bed rest? I don't know much about this, and I don't dare to think deeply, seeing Jiang Xi leaning over, as if whispering something, and Wang Dasheng on the side seemed to shrug his shoulders and sigh lightly.

I never questioned Jiang Xi's talkativeness, and I didn't worry about her emotional intelligence and adaptability when talking to people, so when Wang Dasheng exited the door with a relaxed expression, I was calm and light-hearted, and I hid my merit and fame.

"My wife used to talk a lot...... Wang Dasheng sat on the sofa and lay down on the cushion a little tiredly.

And I was ready for him to tell me about the past in a long speech, but there was nothing left.

Wang Dasheng looked up at the ceiling in a daze, and every time he blinked, it seemed like he had spent a lot of effort.

Compared to Jiang Xi, I am not a person who is particularly good at chatting, and the only little sense of humor is also contributed to Jiang Xi, at this time, I don't even have the idea of provoking a conversation, so I followed him to do the same action, leaning, looking at the ceiling.

A very light laugh gradually came from the room, and Wang Dasheng, who heard this chuckle, suddenly sat up straight, his expression became very serious, and he seemed to tilt his head slightly.

"Oh, by the way, let's have dinner at my house in the evening, it looks like they still have something to talk about. Wang Dasheng lit up his phone and glanced at the time.

"No need, I still have children at home, and the children have nothing to eat when I go back late. "I was a little surprised, thinking that the difference between the pretending boss in the hotel before and the man who was now wearing lounge clothes and smiling and wanting to leave us for dinner didn't seem to be the same person.

"Where does your child go to school? Why don't I drive with you and pick them up and come to my house to eat together?" Wang Dasheng slapped his thighs with both hands, stood up and walked to the refrigerator, and actually began to count the ingredients in the refrigerator.

"I really don't need to, the child still has to do his homework......" I was already a little uncomfortable sitting on the sofa, and I wanted to say a few more excuses, but the mobile phone in my pocket rang.

I opened it and saw that it was Jiang Xi's message: his wife wants to leave us at her house for dinner, Wang Dasheng will cook, and I will give you a task - learn a little more about the situation of the two of them from Wang Dasheng, I seem to be able to analyze why his wife is depressed.

I don't know how she managed to chat with people hotly, and at the same time be distracted to send such a remote text message, after reading it, I only felt my eyebrows beating wildly, and hurriedly replied: You just took a task of adapting the script and sequel, you don't need to do any derivative services, right?

"Oh, what do you want, I have a good chat with his wife, you can chat with Wang Dasheng, and by the way, you can also learn about cooking. ”

I glanced at the room with a complicated expression, and the laughter coming from it was a little higher, and I now think that Wang Dasheng and his wife are not suffering from depression, but that they have never met such a talkative chat friend as Jiang Xi.

Thinking of the readers in her group, because they like to follow her water group so much, they don't even chase after her, and I have nothing that I can't be relieved of.

It's just that your wife, you are a group of water, and you don't chase the text of your readers, do you really think this is a wise choice?

Seeing that Wang Dasheng had taken out all kinds of meat, eggs and vegetables from the refrigerator and entered the kitchen, I also hurriedly called the teacher of the cram school and asked the teacher to help pick up Jiang things at night, and by the way, after finishing the homework at the teacher's place, we may have to pick her up later.

Wang Dasheng in the kitchen hummed a song in a low voice, I told him that the child had been settled, and my Jiang Xi also felt that he couldn't finish chatting with his wife, so he ...... Excuse me.

He said: "Don't bother, the main thing is that my wife can't go out, otherwise I should invite you to the xx hotel for dinner." ”

I immediately grasped a point of doubt, but I didn't ask immediately, but continued his words: "It's no worse at home than outside, Jiang Xi and I have been married for so many years, and we are used to eating at home, your potatoes are shredded vertically and are crispy, why don't I come?"

"I always feel unstable when I cut it vertically, do you often cook at home? Wang Dasheng didn't see me, put down the knife and turned around to measure the rice in the rice bucket.

As the knife made a "tuk-tuk" sound on the chopping board, I pretended to ask, intentionally or unintentionally, "Your wife has not been feeling well for the past two days?"

Wang Dasheng let the water wash over the rice, shook his head and sighed, and said, "It's not these two days, she's ...... Alas, really anxious ......"

I noticed that Wang Dasheng wanted to stop talking, so I also remained silent again, I believe that he must have not found a suitable chat partner for a long time, although I am far less knowledgeable about finding topics than Jiang Xi, but Wang Dasheng should not be a "literary worker" who is more emotional like his wife.

Sure enough, when he pressed the rice cooker button, he finally continued: "My wife originally talked a lot, but most of the books she told me were the books she read, and I didn't understand the storyline, so she began to introduce me to the relationship between the characters and the role setting, and then said that if the author was her, how would she unfold the dramatic conflict, and let everyone get the lunch box or something early...... If you look at me, a food engineering graduate, I'm not interested in what she's talking about. Later, the work became busier and busier, and we were often separated from each other, and I was out to visit customers, and she was in charge of small and small things in the factory......"

He held a handful of celery in his hand, but the movement of picking vegetables was extremely slow, "I was very happy that she had her own hobbies, but I couldn't quite understand, obviously she was already very busy with work during the day, why did she stay up late at night to write?

I gradually found out that Wang Dasheng was talking to me as a confidant, and while I listened to him, a look of deep understanding flashed on my face from time to time, and he said this, isn't that how I feel?

Obviously, there is no shortage of money in the family, Jiang Xi still explodes his liver every day in order to write essays, and often tells me some inexplicable character designs, character relationships, character backgrounds, I haven't understood this character yet, her words have jumped to the next topic, Jiang Xi's typical fast-to-jump thinking, I'm a graduate student in information engineering, and I can't keep up at all.

So for this Wang Dasheng, I have been disgusted, guarded, lax, and relieved from the beginning...... Sympathy to now.

The two of us are really brothers!

Jiang Xi and I have already gotten some fragments of information from Brother Li, knowing that his wife had a major operation, and then she didn't recover well after the operation, so she became a little depressed, and his factory also suffered a big setback before, and then in order to get his wife out of depression, he had to find someone to improve the one that was not very brilliant regardless of work, and it ended up spending a lot of unjust money.

So what I want to know is why his wife is reluctant to go out and why she has become depressed, and I think this is also the message that Jiang Xi wants me to hear.
