Volume 1 1998 Chapter 16 The Hidden Dragon in the Abyss
The group walked out of the hotel, Zhao Min suddenly said that he wanted to go to the bathroom and asked Li Yuan to accompany her, Li Yuanxin said that I am not a woman, but I still followed.
Pang Jianguo and Guo Xiaobao stood by a flower bed outside the hotel and smoked.
Guo Xiaobao spat out a smoke ring and asked, "Lao Pang, have you seen anything like this before?"
Pang Jianguo shook his head.
"Neither did I. ”
Guo Xiaobao threw the cigarette butt on the ground and extinguished it, and said: "I've seen a lot of smart children, but such a smart one, no, you can't say it's smart, it's clearly an old monster!"
"This kid is not simple. "Pang Jianguo is not highly educated, he can't say the word demon, and now there is no such statement.
"I'll go to Jinmen early tomorrow morning, and I really have to hurry up to buy a hukou, if nothing else, I'll rush this person. ”
Pang Jianguo nodded. He and Guo Xiaobao have the same opinion, this year is more important to the right person than the family wealth, Li Yuan's household registration is not in Yingzhou, and he will definitely go to high school in other places next year, but he can't easily lose it.
As she was talking, Jiang Ping suddenly poked her head out of the car and asked, "Xiaobao, why don't you go and take a look, why haven't you come back for so long?"
……
Li Yuan was standing outside the bathroom, feeling bored, when a clear and bright figure suddenly broke into view.
"Ahh ”
Xu Xiaowen was in a hurry to go to the toilet, her steps were a little hurried, and she almost bumped into Li Yuan, she paused, blinked her bright eyes, and looked at Li Yuan suspiciously, not understanding why he was standing at the door of the women's toilet.
Li Yuan stepped aside and made a gesture of please.
Xu Xiaowen staggered over with a red face, and the girl's unique faint fragrance made Li Yuan, the prodigal son among the flowers who had tasted the fragrance of women, couldn't help but be intoxicated.
Li Yuan turned on the faucet of the public sink, washed his face, looked at himself in the mirror, didn't feel anything wrong, and didn't understand why Xu Xiaowen's eyes were strange when he looked at him just now.
How did he know that the reason why Xu Xiaowen looked at him like that was because of what Guan Xuedao said before.
……
Li Yuan is a nobleman?
Even if Guan Xuedao is the deputy mayor, this statement is hardly convincing.
"As far as I know, his family is not in good condition. ”
Fang Xuemin's parents know a lot, as far as she knows, Li Yuan's parents are both from the countryside, their education is not high, one is sick and the other is laid off, the man is still a bad gambler, not only the family wealth is ruined, but also a lot of debts.
Can the son of such a person be called a nobleman?
Well, Li Yuan's grades are good, and my husband just said that he took the fourth place in the class this time, but what does this mean, the Olympics only recognize the top three.
Fang Xuemin couldn't hide things in his heart, so he shook out the things he knew, and looked at Guan Xuedao after speaking, as if asking: What do you say?
Guan Xuedao was noncommittal, turned to Xu Xiaowen, and asked, "What do you think of you as a classmate?"
"Huh?"
Xu Xiaowen didn't expect the question to be pushed to herself, and out of politeness, she couldn't help but answer, so she thought about it seriously.
"I haven't spoken much to him. Xu Xiaowen first cleared herself, saw her mother showing a satisfied smile, and then said: "His grades are very good, but he often doesn't do homework." ”
"The teacher doesn't talk about him?" Fang Xuemin interjected.
"I always talked about him at first, but then I ......"
Xu Xiaowen told the things in the class meeting of the new semester, and Fang Xuemin showed a surprised expression.
"I'll just say he's not a good thing. Fang Xuemin was quite proud and felt that he was very knowledgeable.
"What happened later?" asked Guan Xuedao.
"He was hospitalized the next day, and when he returned to school, it was like a different person, he listened carefully in class, and his homework was completed on time, and he didn't-" Xu Xiaowen stopped the car in time, swallowed "don't stare at me" back into her stomach, took a sip of juice, and hid her panic.
Thinking about it carefully, after Li Yuan returned to school from injury, he really didn't stare at her anymore, and he rarely even saw him on the way to school and home. Xu Xiaowen was happy about this at first, but gradually she was a little disappointed to be abandoned.
"I remember that his house was quite close to our house," Fang Xuemin asked, "Did he pestered you on the road?"
"Nope. Xu Xiaowen lied, with resentment in her heart, and blurted out: "He mixes with Zhao Min and them every day, how can he have time to pester me!"
Xu Bin and Fang Xuemin didn't notice anything unusual, they only thought she was disgusted with Li Yuan.
Guan Xuedao's eyes were so vicious, he saw through her tangled thoughts at a glance, and overshadowed the topic with a smile.
"How is his relationship in the class?"
"He is generally popular, and after the accident, his classmates didn't dare to talk to him, so Zhao Min and they got close to him. ”
Xu Xiaowen briefly talked about a few of Li Yuan's friends, and her expression returned to normal.
"Zhao Min is the first grade you said, how can she be so close to that kind of bad boy from a girl's family?" Fang Xuemin said hatefully, "And that Pang Tao, his grades are so poor, and he is not afraid of bringing people to ruin!"
The logic of her sentence is a little confusing, and she doesn't know who she is worried about bringing who to whom.
"You don't have to say a word, and it's not your daughter. Xu Bin persuaded.
"You don't talk much!" Fang Xuemin's eyes widened, "When your daughter is abducted, you will say that it will be too late!"
The two quarreled, and outsiders couldn't interject, Guan Xuedao ignored them, and continued to ask: "You said that those two classmates have made great progress in their grades?"
"Hmm. ”
"That's right. ”
Guan Xuedao smiled and said, "Lao Xu, I bet that the man who called that kid just now should be the father of one of them." ”
"That big gold chain, you say? I remember that it seems to be driving a bus, and the business is not small, if you are in charge of transportation, you will inevitably have to deal with it in the future. ”
"Look at who the bad boy befriended!"
When Fang Xuemin heard the big gold chain, the image of a hooligan immediately appeared in his mind, in short, he was not a good person.
"You can't say that. ”
Guan Xuedao sat up straighter, his tone was as flat as usual, but with an invisible momentum.
Fang Xuemin was stunned, and then realized that the other party was not only her husband's classmate, but also a deputy mayor, and suddenly died down.
Guan Xuedao's momentum was immediately retracted, and he turned into an idle cloud and wild crane again, and said to Xu Bin: "Do you remember what Guo Lao said about Liu Bei?"
Guo Lao in Guan Xuedaokou is the Chinese language teacher of the two in college, who likes to read the Three Kingdoms and has deep insights.
Xu Bin recalled his college days, with a smile on his face, and said: "I remember, he said that Liu Bei was 'a hero in troubled times and a capable minister who ruled the world'." ”
"Didn't this sentence say Cao Cao?"
Xu Xiaowen couldn't help but ask.
"That's what your dad asked the teacher back then. Guan Xuedao smiled and said: "Uncle will test you, don't care what the book says, just say that this sentence is put on Liu Bei, is it appropriate?"
Xu Xiaowen's brows furrowed.
She has not read "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", but she has watched the TV series, a large-scale series produced by CCTV and premiered in 1994, with excellent production, fascinating plot and superb performances of actors.
Xu Xiaowen recalled Liu Bei in the TV series, combined with the comments in the history textbook, the more she thought about it, the more confused she became.
"It seems to be okay?" Xu Xiaowen said unconfidently.
Guan Xuedao was no longer embarrassed for her, and said: "Being able to divide the world with Cao Cao and Sun Quan, isn't Liu Bei a hero? Therefore, Liu Bei can also be called 'the hero of the troubled times and the capable minister of the world'. These are Guo Lao's original words. ”
Xu Bin nodded and said, "There is still the second half of the teacher's comment. ”
"It's hard to succeed in love. ”
Guan Xuedao said with emotion: "Liu Bei and Cao Cao are both heroes, but they are not as rational as Cao Cao, they like to be emotional, if it weren't for this, they wouldn't have been defeated and died." But then again, isn't it because of his affection and righteousness that people like Liu Bei?"
"It's hypocritical. Xu Bin sang the opposite tune.
"Haha, no wonder your daughter-in-law said that you don't grow up, you are at this age, do you still believe that the world is black and white?" Guan Xuedao laughed.
"No one is perfect. Xu Bin also smiled, suddenly reacted, and asked in amazement: "You say he looks like Liu Bei?
Guan Xuedao smiled and said nothing.
Seeing that he refused to explain, Xu Bin believed it a little and said to himself: "That's really a nobleman." ”
Fang Xuemin didn't believe Guan Xuedao's nonsense, and it was difficult to refute his face, so he said with a smile: "Liu Bei, I also know that if something happens, he will leave his wife and run away, even if he becomes the chairman, he can't marry his daughter." ”
"If people really want to be the chairman, can they take a fancy to our daughter?"
"Why can't you look down on it, where is our daughter not as good as others?"
Fang Xuemin babbled about his requirements for his future son-in-law, and her husband and daughter were speechless and ashamed.
Guan Xuedao has nothing to do with himself, turning the teacup in his hand, and wandering outside.
What he wants to say is not that Li Yuan is like Liu Bei, but that some people are as fundamental as dragons, and being poor for a while does not mean anything.
The hidden dragon is in the abyss, and the wind and clouds will go up to the nine heavens, if such a person has no chance, it will be fine, once he gets help, he will not be obscure.
……
Xu Xiaowen came out of the bathroom and found that Li Yuan was still there, thinking of the "criteria for choosing a son-in-law" or something, her face was suddenly crimson.
Xu Xiaowen was already extremely beautiful, and her shy and timid appearance added a little delicateness, and Li Yuan was dumbfounded.
At this moment, Li Yuan's mind was blank, and he just hoped that time would stop.
It's a pity that there are always people who don't open their eyes to cause trouble.
A young man with yellow hair came out of the toilet drunk, and was just about to wash his hands, when he suddenly saw Xu Xiaowen, and was stunned.
Li Yuan frowned, took a step to block Huang Mao's sight with his back, glanced at Xu Xiaowen, and motioned for her to leave quickly.
Xu Xiaowen was already flustered, and when she saw him walking towards her, she misunderstood what he was going to do to herself, and stepped back with her arms folded in panic, like a little white rabbit stared at by a vicious wolf.
In this way, Huang Mao's eyes straightened, and he was stunned for several seconds, and suddenly shouted at the top of his voice.
"Come and see the beauty!"
