Chapter 217: Twists and Turns

Before Meng Zitao could speak, Xiaoyun objected: "It's really winter, it's cloudy today, why are you going to the park?" Besides, we've visited enough attractions during this time, let's find a place to sit down, I haven't eaten breakfast yet." ”

He Wanyi said angrily: "You didn't eat breakfast before, and now you still have the face to say?"

"It's nothing to get a beauty night's sleep, right?"

Speaking of this, Xiaoyun looked at Meng Zitao with a smile: "Do you want to go to the park, or do you want to find a place to sit?"

"Why are you asking me about this kind of thing?" Meng Zitao couldn't help but complain a little in his heart that Xiaoyun was troublesome, and he proposed it just now, this question was really difficult for him to answer, for fear that he would say something wrong and make He Wanyi unhappy.

"It's up to you. ”

He Wanyi glared at Xiaoyun, and then said apologetically to Meng Zitao: "I'm bothering you today." ”

Meng Zitao hurriedly said that it didn't matter, and then took them to a more famous casual restaurant nearby.

Everyone ordered some snacks and chatted while eating.

Speaking of which, Xiaoyun's existence, although it belongs to a light bulb, at this time, she can speak well, which also dispelled the embarrassment of Meng Zitao and He Wanyi at the beginning, and after a while, the three of them began to talk and laugh.

After chatting for a while, Xiaoyun got up and went to the bathroom, whether it was intentional or not, it could be regarded as giving the two of them a chance to be alone.

"You ......"

After being silent for a while, the two of them spoke at the same time, Meng Zitao and He Wanyi were stunned, and then said in unison: "You speak first." ”

This scene made both of them laugh, and Meng Zitao said, "You can say it first." ”

He Wanyi hesitated for a moment. said: "There is a question, I don't know whether to ask it or not. ”

"It's okay, just ask. Meng Zitao said with a smile.

He Wanyi said: "I heard Grandma Qian tell you about your family's situation before. It feels a little different from how you behave. ”

Hearing this, Meng Zitao understood, and said with a smile: "Actually, my money is indeed earned by myself, and almost all of it is obtained by leakage. ”

"Pick up the leak?" He Wanyi felt a little unbelievable when she heard this answer.

"Yes......" Mencius singled out a few previous experiences. Said a little.

The more He Wanyi listened, the more surprised she became, and finally said a little speechlessly: "Your luck is inevitably too good." ”

"It's okay. Meng Zitao smiled.

"Then was your luck so good before?" He Wanyi asked a key question.

Of course, Meng Zitao would not hide this kind of thing, and said: "That's not it." Otherwise, I wouldn't have been worried about my father's medical expenses last year. ”

"Ah, you're saying you've picked up all these leaks over the past few months?"

"Pretty much. ”

"This ...... Have you ever wondered what makes your luck so good?"

"I haven't really thought about that. Meng Zitao shook his head: "I think." What I really want to say. This is most likely due to accumulation. ”

"Have you been learning antiques for a long time?"

"It's been more than four years, almost five years. ”

He Wanyi was a little relieved when she heard that it had been so long, and asked again: "Then do you think this kind of thing is addictive?"

Meng Zitao said: "At the beginning, there will be some some, but as people often say, when money reaches a certain stage, it is just a string of numbers, and my current state is about the same." Because there is no pressure when it comes to money anymore, so. Usually pay more attention to the thing itself. ”

"So, as the news says, this kind of thing is definitely not going to happen to me in order to pick up the leak. Of course, I'm not saying that I won't be eye-catching, but I will try my best to avoid it and keep improving myself. ”

Hearing this, He Wanyi smiled and said, "I'm also interested in antiques now, can you teach me how to learn this knowledge?"

"Absolutely. Meng Zitao hurriedly told He Wanyi about his learning experience, and then said that now he has just worshipped Zheng Anzhi as a teacher and gained some new learning experience, but if you can say it, you have to ask Zheng Anzhi.

He Wanyi was surprised, and said with a smile: "Don't be so troublesome, what you said is enough for me to be busy for a while, and I am mainly interested, and I don't have the idea of studying this aspect professionally." ”

He Wanyi's smile amazed Meng Zitao, fortunately, he is not the kind of pig brother who gets crazy when he sees a beautiful woman, otherwise he would have to be embarrassed.

However, Meng Zitao's expression still fell into He Wanyi's eyes, although she only has a slight impression of Meng Zitao now, but there is a way for women to please themselves, and Meng Zitao's concern still makes her very happy.

Immediately, He Wanyi thought of another thing, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "I want to ask, when did we meet?"

When Meng Zitao heard this, he immediately became excited, but in order to avoid He Wanyi from misunderstanding when he learned that he was investigating her, he suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked, "Why do you ask that?"

He Wanyi said: "When we met for the first time, you gave me the feeling that we had met before, maybe I was wrong." ”

When Meng Zitao heard this, his mood immediately calmed down a lot, and it was also said that He Wanyi had met him once before, and after so many years, how could he still remember who he was?

However, this is also an opportunity for him to solve his doubts, saying: "You are not mistaken, but I don't know if it is you." ”

"Tell me about it. ”

"That's the case, it was when I was in junior high school......" Meng Zitao said the original thing.

He Wanyi was surprised: "Ah, I remember, it turned out to be you!"

"Ah, are you He Baoyue?" Meng Zitao also pretended to be surprised and said, but he immediately reacted, he pretended to be too much, making him want to slap himself twice, isn't this nothing to do?

Sure enough, He Wanyi's reaction was similar to what Meng Zitao thought, and she was slightly stunned: "I remember that I didn't seem to tell you my name at the beginning, right?"

"This ......"

Meng Zitao looked at He Wanyi's puzzled eyes. Gritting his teeth in the end, he still said: "Actually, I passed my classmates at the beginning. I've inquired about you, and I've been looking for you a few times. ”

"Why?" He Wanyi asked lightly.

Meng Zitao said a little embarrassedly: "The main thing is that you at that time, to me, were like the warm sun in winter, feeling very warm." However, I am not very good at communicating with girls, and I also had low self-esteem at the beginning. So I didn't muster up the courage to meet you. ”

He Wanyi somewhat understood the meaning of Meng Zitao's words, and it stands to reason that she should be happy about this. But for deeper reasons, it didn't make her happy.

Seeing He Wanyi's expression, Meng Zitao guessed her thoughts, which was also the reason why he complained that he had nothing to do just now.

But that's it. This problem must be solved. And after solving it, there is also a benefit, at least he feels that there should be no gap between him and He Wanyi.

"I hope you don't get me wrong, I didn't think of you as He Baoyue at the beginning, after all, you have different names and temperaments, and in my eyes you are two people. And I don't think it's fair to you to treat you like she. ”

He Wanyi was silent for a moment and asked, "Didn't you have the idea of wanting to know where He Baoyue was?"

Meng Zitao replied: "At that time, I thought you were relatives. I did have the idea of finding out how she's doing through you. Still, I'm still saying that. All this time, I didn't think of you as the same person, I hope you don't get me wrong. ”

He Wanyi was silent, which made Meng Zitao very worried in his heart, and he had no experience in this area before, so he didn't know how to deal with this matter for a while.

At this time, Xiaoyun appeared and asked with a smile, "What did you just talk about?"

"Hehe, it's nothing, it's not early, let's order some dinner." Meng Zitao hurriedly said.

Xiaoyun's eyes lit up: "Okay, I want a big meal!"

"No problem......"

At this time, He Wanyi opened her mouth slightly next to her, but in the end she didn't say anything.

After lunch, everyone sat down for a while, and He Wanyi said goodbye.

After walking for a while, Xiaoyun asked, "I said, what the hell is going on with you?"

He Wanyi hesitated for a moment, and then said what happened just now.

Xiaoyun said incredulously: "Just because of this?"

He Wanyi said: "I understand your thoughts, but I just feel a little uncomfortable in my heart. ”

Xiaoyun said speechlessly: "I said, you eat your own vinegar, don't you have a problem with your brain, you are sick, you have to be cured! Besides, Meng Zitao didn't dislike you, why do you dislike him?"

He Wanyi said: "I didn't say that I disliked him, and besides, why did he dislike me?"

Xiaoyun said: "You have talked about a boyfriend, but he has not talked about a girlfriend, according to your thoughts, should he dislike you?"

"Well, it's two different things, okay. ”

"Why are they two different things, did he tell you that he still remembered the old you? Even if he never forgets it, isn't that what he thinks about? Just like the joke says, if you change your vest, isn't it you?"

Looking at He Wanyi's silent appearance, Xiao Yun said with some hatred: "You are good at everything, you can go out of the hall and enter the kitchen, you will definitely be a good wife and mother in the future, but why should you have a habit of cleanliness in this regard? But if you want to talk about a habit of cleanliness, you can't just ask him, right?"

He Wanyi said: "I am not ......"

Xiaoyun interrupted her: "Then what are you?

He Wanyi raised his hand and surrendered: "Okay, if you're right, it's okay." ”

Xiaoyun said: "What do I mean I'm right, let the past be good, the most important thing is the present and the future." Moreover, how good Meng Zitao is, he has a good personality and can make money, and his appearance is also good, you are still his first love, what more do you want?

"If you want it, you can chase it. He Wanyi said.

Xiao Yun said with a teasing smile: "If you look at it, you will know duplicity, as far as Meng Zitao's attitude towards you, do you think I am chasing after you?" I advise you, don't be hypocritical, cherish this opportunity." ”

He Wanyi said again and again: "Okay, okay, don't worry about this, I'll take care of it!"

"Don't do anything you'll regret in the future?"

Xiaoyun shook his finger, and then asked with some curiosity: "There is something I still don't understand. Okay, why did you change your name? I think your old name was pretty nice. ”

He Wanyi smiled bitterly: "Actually, unless the name is too ugly." Who would want to change their name?"

Xiaoyun asked again, "Then why are you?"

He Wanyi said: "Mainly, I was actually quite annoying at the beginning, selfish, arrogant, disregarding the feelings of others, and some of the character of a brutal lady are all in me." Later, when I was in high school, I had a conflict with my classmates because of my personality. ”

"It was my responsibility that took the lion's part. But at that time, I was doing well in my studies, and the teacher helped me, and that classmate couldn't think about it for a while. He committed suicide by jumping into the lake, but fortunately he was saved by everyone. Since then, I have begun to reflect on my words and actions, and this is how I realized. I'm a nasty person. After that, he vowed to change himself. ”

"As for changing the name, although there are also thoughts of changing oneself, more often than not, I don't want to think of my old self again. ”

Hearing the end, Xiao Yun was a little abrupt: "Oh, the reason why you reacted so much just now is because you hate your former relationship, right?"

"Hmm. He Wanyi nodded lightly: "However, I have figured it out now, even if I don't want to face it anymore." The former me and the current me are indeed the same person. Look forward. ”

"That's right!" Xiaoyun nodded again and again, and then asked a question that made He Wanyi cry and laugh: "By the way, are there any delicious snacks around here?"

"You're a pig, you just finished eating, and you want to eat it, and sooner or later you will eat it into a fat pig. ”

"I just can't eat fat, envy, right?"

"Hmph, who would envy ......"

The words were divided into two ends, out of the restaurant, Meng Zitao was extremely depressed, walked home, and when he was halfway there, he couldn't hold it back anymore, called Shu Ze, and told him what had just happened.

"You're a pig, why are you talking about this?"

I didn't know what was going on, so I blurted it out. ”

"I really convinced you, you see that her look is wrong, just lie to her and say that she has no impression of He Baoyue for a long time. No wonder some people say that people who are in love have a declining IQ, and you are typical. ”

"At this time, you still have to be honest. ”

"Fart, girls just want to coax, sometimes, they should be cheated. You're being honest, but you've messed things up, isn't that boring?"

"Besides, I called you to ask what you should do, don't keep splashing me with cold water?"

"Hmph, people like you should splash cold water on you. And I'm not a lover, how can I know the solution at any time?"

"Then there is no recruitment?" Meng Zitao was very disappointed when he heard this.

"I really can't help you, I'll go find someone and ask. ”

"Thank you, thank you, you are really my savior!"

"Come on, when the matter is settled, you can thank you again......"

Closing the phone, Meng Zitao was in a better mood, but in his heart, he was still very worried.

Walking all the way home, looking at his mobile phone without moving, Meng Zitao's mood began to fall again.

Seeing Meng Zitao coming back, Xu Ping hurriedly asked, "Xiao Tao, how was the blind date today?"

Meng Zitao was really in no mood to say it, waved his hand, and walked to his room: "Mom, this matter is a bit complicated, let's talk about it later." ”

Xu Ping was about to ask, but was stopped by Meng Shuliang.

When Meng Zitao walked back to the room, Xu Ping complained, "Why are you stopping me?"

Meng Shuliang said: "You didn't see that your son was in a bad mood." ”

"Then you have to make it clear, so that you can drug the certificate!"

"What's the hurry, when he wants to say it, he will naturally say it......"

Meng Zitao walked back to the room a little bored, he looked at his phone, and as soon as his mind turned, he planned to send a text message to He Wanyi, but he didn't know what to say, and finally his liver was so angry that he wanted to throw away the phone.

At this time, the mobile phone "dingdong" sounded, and a text message came, Meng Zitao hurriedly looked at it, it was actually sent by He Wanyi, and saw the text message written: "I'm really sorry for today's incident, I had a boyfriend before, do you mind?"

Seeing this text message, Meng Zitao jumped three feet high excitedly, and hurriedly replied: "The most important thing is now and in the future." ”

After pressing send, Meng Zitao waited anxiously again. After a while, He Wanyi sent another text message, and he opened it to take a look. couldn't help cheering, and hurriedly began to reply again.

The cheers reached the living room through the door, which made Meng Shuliang and his wife look at each other a little.

"What's the matter, it won't be stimulated, right?" Xu Ping couldn't help but worry.

Meng Shuliang waved his hand: "How can my son be so easily hit? ”

"No, I'll have to take a look. ”

Xu Ping still felt uneasy, so she walked to the door of Meng Zitao's room, because the door was not closed. Xu Ping secretly looked into the room through the gap and found that Meng Zitao was happily writing text messages.

This made Xu Ping breathe a sigh of relief and feel better. He turned around and made an OK gesture to her husband and said with a smile, "It seems that there is no problem this time." ”

Meng Shuliang said with a smile: "I'll just say it, Xiao Tao is so good, how can the other party look down on him?"

"It's going to be an afterthought......"

…………

There is a way that people are in good spirits when they are happy. I chatted with He Wanyi for a lot of time yesterday. Meng Zitao felt that the estrangement between the two had basically disappeared.

It's just that what makes Meng Zitao feel a little pity is that He Wanyi is a little cautious about emotional matters, and he can't break the window paper in the middle. As for the reason, he also has some guesses.

Of course, considering that the two have been in contact for only a few days, Meng Zitao is not in a hurry about it. And the two are still young now, and they can develop slowly and steadily.

Originally. Today, Meng Zitao planned to take He Wanyi and them to play, but He Wanyi said that he was more interested in his antique shop.

So, after he went to Zheng Anzhi's early in the morning to listen to some teachings, he came to the antique shop and waited for He Wanyi and their arrival.

After everything was ready, Meng Zitao kept looking out of the door, which made the army next to him feel a little funny.

Meng Zitao said with a smile: "What are you laughing at, you bachelor won't understand." ”

Dajun smiled: "Come on, just like you fool, I'd better not find a partner." ”

"You actually call me like a fool?!"

"Of course, I don't believe you look in the mirror. ”

"Roll the calf......"

After a few jokes, He Wanyi and they didn't come, but Chang Huarong walked in from outside the door with a box.

"Shopkeeper Meng, I'm going to trouble you again today. ”

"Where, where, you are not a trouble for me, but the God of Wealth. ”

Seeing Chang Huarong, Meng Zitao thought of the scene after he and He Wanyi were separated in Shanghai, he politely invited Chang Huarong to take a seat, and asked with a smile: "Professor Chang, last Sunday, I seemed to see you at the XX Hotel." ”

Chang Huarong's eyes were stunned, and then he waved his hand and said, "Hmm, I didn't go, could it be that you read it wrong?"

"Oh, that's probably because it's far away, and it's wrong. Meng Zitao smiled embarrassedly, but he was a little disappreciative in his heart, with his current eyes, how could he be wrong?

He originally wanted to remind Chang Huarong not to be deceived by gullible others, but everyone is not particularly good friends, since Chang Huarong himself does not admit it, why should he meddle?

Meng Zitao then asked, "Professor Chang, I don't know what kind of treasure you brought today?"

"It's a real treasure. Chang Huarong took out a shield-like ornament from the box slightly mysteriously.

Meng Zitao fixed his eyes: "This is...... The animal face pattern plaque of the Erlitou period?"

This plaque is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, with rounded corners and a curved surface, and the whole is in the shape of a shield. There are two round noses on each side. The surface is inlaid with many turquoise pieces of different shapes and sizes to form animal face patterns. The selection of materials and production are very fine, and the images are very beautiful. Its technology is superb, the three-dimensional sense is strong, and the preservation is also very good, if it is genuine, it is very rare.

"Shopkeeper Meng is really knowledgeable!" Chang Huarong smiled and gave Meng Zitao a thumbs up.

"Where, where, I happened to see it before. Meng Zitao waved his hand and said modestly.

At this time, He Wanyi and Xiaoyun walked in.

This made Meng Zitao happy, and hurriedly said hello and introduced the two sides.

It is not difficult for Chang Huarong to find from Meng Zitao's expression that he is interested in He Wanyi, so he did not hesitate to say a few good words.

After a few pleasantries, everyone turned their attention to the object on the table.

Xiaoyun sighed lightly: "Hey, what is this, it looks like a shield, and it seems to be inlaid with turquoise, right?"

Meng Zitao nodded and said, "Yes, this is the beast face pattern plaque of the Erlitou period." So far, only three pieces of this type have been discovered, and their ornamentation is the earliest known animal face pattern on bronzes, and the authenticity is very valuable. ”

Xiao Yun asked with some curiosity, "When is the Erlitou period?"

Meng Zitao said: "It is an archaeological culture between the Longshan culture and the Erligang culture in the Central Plains, and the specific time should be in the Xia Dynasty. (To be continued.) )
