Chapter 138: A Successful Gambler
When Bai Yulan heard the voice, she quickly wiped her tears and stood up: "Oh...... It's okay...... The sun pierced the eyes. ”
Mrs. Ouyang looked at the two people: "Did I miss something? I was late because I was waiting for Lao Liu's car." ”
Magnolia glanced at Ou Tongyang and asked Mrs. Ouyang in a low voice, "Did they all go to the airport smoothly?"
"It's all right, but I was hit by a novice who used the accelerator as a brake, and no one was hurt. ”
Magnolia asked suspiciously, "How could it be so coincidental?"
Mrs. Ouyang replied: "It's near the Tsing Yi Bridge, I heard Lao Liu say so." ”
Magnolia was still puzzled.
Ou Tongyang wiped his face and took a map of Hong Kong, put it on the sofa table, pointed to the Tsing Yi Bridge, and said: "It should be on the Changqing Highway, which is the first bridge to the airport." ”
"Oh. "Magnolia really hopes it was just an accident.
Ou Tongyang frowned and folded the newspaper.
Mrs. Ouyang asked, "Is there any problem? Did someone hit it on purpose?"
Magnolia took it and said, "Probably not, why didn't anyone get hurt on purpose?"
Mrs. Ouyang couldn't help but be a little nervous when she saw the two children take out the map to find the location, but now when she heard Bai Yulan say this, she breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good." I don't know if it's right to let him go back to Shanghai, but that Bai Lang said that Shanghai is safe. ”
Ou Tongyang took it, and his nasal voice was a little thick: "I think so too, Shanghai is safer." ”
Mrs. Ouyang took the tea handed by Magnolia and said, "I can only think like this now." By the way, Ah Tong, has Mr. Ou found it?"
Bai Yulan looked at Ou Tongyang and saw that Ou Tongyang was a little embarrassed, so she replied for him: "There is no clue, I don't know where to look." ”
"No clues? where he frequents, oh, yes, he barely leaves the house. So did he leave a few words, the books he often reads, and what he has been doing recently, Ah Tong, doesn't he often draw bookmarks for you, look at what the bookmarks he has drawn recently, and whether there are any traces to follow. Mrs. Ouyang observed the expressions of the two children and proposed the solution she had come up with.
Ou Tongyang hurriedly said, "Yes, I'll go and see the bookmark." He turned around and walked towards the study, but he didn't take two steps before he was stopped by Mrs. Ouyang.
"Okay, don't pretend, you didn't look for it at all. Ah Tong, you are a smart child, and Lan Yatou is not an outsider, I might as well tell you, I must meet your stepfather today, I want to see what agreement this mysterious person made with your father back then. ”
Bai Yulan and Ou Tongyang both remembered what Ouyang Junsheng said when he came to find his wife yesterday, "Didn't he plan to keep what he promised me?" This sentence proves that Ouyang Junsheng must have had a secret agreement with Mr. Ou, and this agreement must be related to Mrs. Ouyang. It seems that Mrs. Ouyang heard this, but when she saw Ouyang Junsheng turning quickly, she didn't expose him.
Mrs. Ouyang looked at Ou Tongyang, she believed that Ou Tongyang must know the truth. Looking at Magnolia again, she felt that Magnolia should also know part of the truth.
Mrs. Ouyang said sadly: "Ah Tong, is the truth so embarrassing? How long do you want to keep this secret? Who is your stepfather?"
Ou Tongyang's head turned quickly, he knew that the truth was not embarrassing, but the secret must not be revealed, this is the tranquility that his father-in-law has insisted on for a lifetime of loneliness, he can't say. But when his mother asked, he couldn't wait, so he had to calculate while talking: "Mom, that's the case." Dad was worried, because, because my dad knew it, he knew who Ah Yan's mother was, and Dad didn't want him to tell you that they had an agreement. ”
Mrs. Ouyang asked suspiciously, "Mr. Ou has been in Hong Kong, how can he know who that woman is?"
"He knows, because he was the one who went to Nanjing to pick me up in Hong Kong, and at that time, you and your father went to your hometown to pick up Ah Shu and my grandparents. ”
"Isn't he confused all the time? How can he pick you up? And how can he still know how to make an agreement with your father? Is he actually sober?"
Ou Tongyang saw that his mother was pressing step by step, so he had to say: "Actually, my father is not so confused, especially when he was young, he was still very sober, have you forgotten that he is still my Chinese enlightenment teacher? ”
Mrs. Ouyang always felt that this mysterious person was not so simple, just unwilling to get along with people, she had been hiding for so many years, "Then why did he leave? And you don't want to go to find him, as if you know where he is." ”
"I didn't know where he was, but I knew he was leaving. Because, because, because that woman was actually one of his relatives, it should be his niece or niece, he said that sooner or later you would come and ask him, but he promised my father that he couldn't say it, so he had to leave. And a long time ago, he bought a pension property in the mainland, and told us that if he left one day, don't look for him, he just found a place with relatives to retire. China is so big, I really don't know how to find someone who is deliberately hiding, and I am worried that if I find him, he will continue to run away, and finally there will be no place to retire. ”
Magnolia listened to the story made up by Ou Tongyang, and she was so impressed. I don't know who will be lucky enough to be his wife in the future, it should be the misfortune to be his wife, living in lies every day without knowing it, haha......
Ou Tongyang ignored Magnolia's forcible smile, and continued to make it up: "Do you remember two years ago, when you didn't listen to dissuasion and insisted on coming over to thank him well, and brought a lot of things, he didn't dare to see you, just because he was afraid that he would accidentally leak his mouth when he saw you." After you left, my dad started preparing to leave. At that time, I promised him that you would never come to the door again, and he gave up the idea of leaving. Yesterday you came here and decided to go upstairs on the fly, which caught me a little off guard, and I had to hope that he didn't hear and see, but you know, there are so many people, such a big battle, it is impossible not to alarm him, so it can be said that he left as I expected, but I didn't expect it to be so soon. He has pursued peace of mind all his life, so I discussed with Yulan and decided not to look for it. ”
Bai Yulan saw Ou Tongyang's honest face, sincere attitude, and stable voice, she felt that she had already believed him, and felt that Lu Minxing was not only the author of "A World of Camphor", but also a person who knew a big secret, so when she heard him mention her name, she nodded hurriedly and said, "Don't look for it, don't look for it, Lu ...... , the road was chosen by him a long time ago, let's follow his wishes, maybe this is the best for him, good for everyone!"
In fact, the reason why lies can be believed is because there are things in lies that can really be believed, such as what happened two years ago, such as Lu Minxing's evasion, most of them are true, and there is only a little bit of lies, which is the purpose of evasion.
Mrs. Ouyang looked at the two children hesitantly, Ou Tongyang was good at acting and she understood, but Bai Yulan was a sincere child and couldn't act, so she couldn't help but believe it: "Really? Then I came for nothing? Ah Tong, didn't your stepfather tell you the name of that woman?"
"Mom, how could he tell me a secret that he would rather stay away from home than leak?" said Ou Tongyang innocently.
Mrs. Ouyang sighed: "It seems that everything is determined. It's hard for your stepfather to be such a trustworthy man, hey. Lan girl, do you want to stay here or go back to Yanyuan with me? Of course I hope you can stay with me, but Yanyuan is afraid that it will not be quiet. ”
Magnolia looked at Ou Tongyang, she was a little worried about him, today his inexplicable sadness and tears made her heart unable to let go, for the first time she felt that this man was not always so sunny, and everything in the past did not pass away with the wind as he himself said, and there were too many unknown emotions hidden in his heart. Thinking that he has to adjust himself to sunshine, upwardness, and positive energy every day, quietly hide all the sadness, sadness and sorrow, and occasionally break out, such a life will drive people crazy, is he really okay? But Ou Tongyang turned his face indifferently and ignored it.
Ou Tongyang's reaction, Magnolia understood, and she had no choice but to leave.
Yan Yuan is really not quiet, and the first person to greet Magnolia after going back turned out to be Sun Xiaorui.
"Yulan, where have you been? I haven't seen you for most of the day. Quick, look at what gift I bought you, look, it's easy to use, you can read books on the car and the subway, this is called 'Aipai', and it's as easy to use as a computer. ”
Magnolia looked at Sun Xiaorui's new outfit and said with a smile: "What are you doing, buying such a valuable thing, you are rich?"
Sun Xiaorui pulled Magnolia into her "condensation" and showed Magnolia a tax payment voucher, and when Magnolia saw the amount, she was so shocked that she couldn't close her mouth: "Sister Sun, you ...... How can you have so much money?"
Sun Xiaorui said proudly: "This time you know why I stayed in Macao for a few days, right? It is really paradise there, seeing that our wealth has increased exponentially like this, it is really not worth it to think about the thousands of yuan we have to work hard for so many flies and dogs every day." When I earned the money to buy a house, I hesitated and wanted to stop, but I thought, my Sun Xiaorui is either still a poor egg, or I will ascend to the sky from now on, I bet all at once, Yulan, I bet all at once, and it has become like this, I succeeded, I no longer have to run for three meals a day, nor do I have to bow to my in-laws' house for the hundred and ten square meters, there is no need to listen to the boss's nagging, I want to be my own boss!"
