Chapter 72: A Sense of Déjà vu
"Uncle, you're lying to me, right?"
As the train approached its destination, the sky gradually brightened, the morning light became clearer little by little, and the scene inside and outside the train window slowly became clearer. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Sitting across from her was a pretty girl, with a straight nose, a bit of heroic eyebrows, and long, dense eyelashes, but she looked a little suspicious and a little angry, she took off her earbuds and threw them slightly the small window sill between the two.
I don't even need an honorific title.
"How did I lie to you?" Duan Shanshan asked as he put the earbuds into his jacket pocket and pretended to be at a loss.
"You don't look like a person in your forties at all!" the girl snorted, not knowing if she was angry because she might have been deceived, or because Duan Shanshan's appearance did not match the image of "uncle" she had predicted in advance.
"What's the benefit of lying to you?" Duan Shanshan turned his head to look out the window a little embarrassed, reluctantly holding on to his casual lies, "I looked like this when I was in my early twenties, and at that time others always said that I was old-looking; Besides, I didn't ask you to call me 'uncle'!"
The girl didn't look like such a stupid child who was so careless, she stretched out her hand at Duan Shanshan: "I don't believe it, show me your ID card!"
Duan Shanshan was taken aback for a moment, isn't it just a little joke, why is it so serious? So he shook his head again and again and waved his hand to refuse.
"Girl, I didn't say you, how can you casually ask strangers to see your ID card when you go out, your habit is not good. ”
The girl laughed at him again, this time with seven points of disdain and three points of ridiculousness.
"Who likes to look at other people's ID cards? Isn't it that you lied to me, so I don't care if you ask for it!"
"I didn't lie to you, believe it or not. Duan Shanshan decided to pursue the tactics of a dead duck's hard mouth to the end, staring at the trees and houses passing by outside the window without turning his head, "Little girl, don't be so big and small." ”
"Don't call me a little girl!" the girl was annoyed and glared at him angrily, "Maybe you are a big man who is not as tall as me, and you dare to call me a little girl?"
It can be seen that she is very confident in her height, but Duan Shanshan is not confident in this point, and she is too lazy to respond, so she simply doesn't bother with her.
The girl bit her lip and glared at him, he was so uncomfortable with the scrutiny, questioning, and condemnation that she simply closed her eyes and listened to the music intently. When the girl saw that he was pretending to be dead, she turned her head to stare out the window at the morning scene.
I don't know how long it took, a warning electronic sound came from the earbuds, Duan Shanshan opened his eyes and opened the notebook to see, it turned out that he had been listening to music for more than an hour, and the notebook was about to run out of power. He closed his notebook, stood up and removed his duffel bag from the luggage rack, tucked it in and put it away, and pulled out a book.
Yesterday, when he was waiting for the train, he arrived early and had nothing to do, so he went to the bookstore in the train station to kill time, and easily bought the just-published version of the three most books in the Chinese culture library "Historical Records".
Putting his bag back on the luggage rack, he sat down and read intently.
This book is almost sixteen open volumes, obviously more than a circle wider than the common books on the market, and it is still a little difficult to read it at will, so Duan Shanshan held the spine of the book with his right hand and turned the page with his left hand, and couldn't help but make a look of sitting in danger and not releasing the volume.
"What kind of book are you reading?" The girl who had been treated coldly by him for a long time couldn't help but turn her head and ask curiously, seeing that he didn't look like he was reading an idle book.
Duan Shanshan maintained a reading posture without squinting, held the book in his right hand and raised it, and raised the cover of the book towards the girl.
"Are you reading the Chronicles?" the girl's eyes widened in surprise, and she looked incredulous, and even stood up and leaned over to him, bending down to read the contents of the book.
It is the first page of "Volume 1: The First Book of the Five Emperors", there is no vernacular commentary or commentary, it is densely packed with classical Chinese, only a simple vignette of the Yellow Emperor's prints.
Duan Shanshan subconsciously sniffled, and once again smelled the girl's hair at a closer distance, mixed with the fragrance of the ink of the new book, and suddenly felt refreshed and relaxed. To be honest, he was not used to maintaining such an intimate distance from the young opposite sex, so he twisted unnaturally, leaning against the wall by the window, trying to open up a little gap with the girl's body.
"Listen to the songs of eight or nine years, and watch the original version of the "Historical ......Records", the girl sat back on the folding chair opposite him, and muttered to herself, "I wonder if you are really forty-five years old, uncle, I'm sorry, I shouldn't doubt you." ”
Duan Shanshan didn't raise his head, and said shamelessly and casually: "It's okay, I don't blame you, it's because I'm too tender and don't look like someone my age." ”
After saying this, he couldn't help but stand up the cold hairs all over his body, goosebumps and disgusting fell to the ground, but fortunately the girl couldn't see it from his casual appearance.
"Uncle, where are you?" finally being fooled, the girl resumed her attitude towards her elders and began to talk to him again.
"I went to Tan City. Duan Shanshan replied casually while reading the book.
The girl blinked and asked, "Oh, isn't that almost there?"
Duan Shanshan nodded and replied: "If you don't miss it, I'll be there at a quarter past seven, get out of the car just to go for breakfast, I haven't tasted Zixi noodles in northern Fujian for a long time." ”
"Oh, that's really good, but it's a pity that I have to go to Yancheng District, and I can't get off until a quarter past nine, so I guess I'll have to eat some breakfast on the train later." The girl's tone sounded rather envious.
After being accosted by the girl several times, Duan Shanshan didn't finish reading a page for a long time, and after thinking about it, he felt that he really couldn't concentrate in this state, so he simply closed the book depressedly.
"The things on the train are expensive, unpalatable and unhygienic, so it's best to put up with them. ”
"Who wants to eat the things on the train, I brought a box of Nanxiang Xiaolong on the train, but it will definitely not taste good if it is left overnight!" The girl's words carried a strong disgust and grievance.
"Oh, are you SH on the bus?" Duan Shanshan asked casually, ten years ago on May 4, he had participated in a special website party called "New Warring States Alliance", and a large group of historical friends from all over the world chatted about the past and the present, and stayed in SH for a total of three days, and he had a deep memory of the delicious Nanxiang Xiaolong.
The girl nodded and asked, "Have you ever been to our Yancheng?"
Hearing this, Duan Shanshan couldn't help but be stunned. His grandfather's house is in Yancheng District, and he himself was born in Yancheng, because his parents are dual-income workers and have no time to take care of their children, and his mother was in Shancheng County and his father was in Tancheng City at the earliest, so he was always taken care of by his retired grandmother in Yancheng before entering school. It wasn't until he was in elementary school that his mother was transferred to reunite with his father, and he returned to his parents in Tancheng. It can be said that he spent his childhood in Yancheng completely, and even after returning to Tancheng, he basically went to Yancheng for a few weeks during the winter and summer vacations every year.
After all, most of his grandparents, aunts and uncles are in Yancheng, so he is no stranger to Yancheng at all.
"I was born in Yancheng Municipal Hospital, and I went to Tancheng when I was in elementary school. Duan Shanshan said with a smile.
"Yes, what a coincidence, uncle, I was also born in the municipal hospital!" said the girl in surprise.
Duan Shanshan couldn't help but smile bitterly, you are from Yancheng District, Yancheng District is the seat of the regional government, and the municipal hospital is the best hospital in northern Fujian, is it unusual for you to be born there?
"Then have you been to Jiufeng Mountain and Mangdang Mountain?" the girl asked with great interest.
Duan Shanshan smiled and nodded: "I went there when I was a child, but I almost forgot it, I remember that there is a zoo in Jiufeng Mountain, and there are 3,800 kans in Mangdang Mountain." ”
"That's right, that's right, then you should go and see it again if you have a chance, you have been a teenager since you were a child...... No!" The girl suddenly remembered something, and suddenly became angry, "The Jiufeng Mountain Zoo only existed in eighty-two years, and it has only been twenty-eight years now, and you said that you are forty-five years old? Even if you go there just after the zoo is built, you should be seventeen or eighteen years old at that time!"
The girl found that she was still being fooled, and she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and stare at Duan Shanshan again, and there was no need for honorifics.
Duan Shanshan touched her nose in embarrassment, she didn't expect this girl to be so delicate and agile, and she was discovered by her as soon as she didn't pay attention to her and said that she had leaked her mouth.
"That's my mistake, I should say when I was younger......"
"I don't believe it, you're too good at deceiving people, unless you really show me your ID card this time!" the girl looked at him again with war, contempt, and hatred, and her emotions were even stronger than the last time.
Duan Shanshan couldn't help but turn his head to look at her, and suddenly found that the girl's face was a little familiar, and what was the vague intimacy he had for her before? Was it because of her Yancheng accent? No, strictly speaking, this girl's accent was not a standard Yancheng accent, but more like the taste of his grandparents' SX accent, although this girl's SX accent was very light and not obvious.
"What are you staring at me blankly, liar, pervert, scoundrel!" the girl rebuked angrily, immediately drawing the attention of several of the awakened travelers around her.
"Girl, what's wrong with him?" a middle-aged strong man with a big waist and a round waist walked over menacingly, and the fat all over his body was trembling up and down.
"She's joking with me. Duan Shanshan explained a little embarrassed.
"I didn't ask you, stay there!" The strong man snorted disdainfully, turned his head and immediately changed his face to the girl with a friendly smile and asked, "Don't be afraid, child, just tell me if you have anything." ”
The girl tried her best to keep a straight face and look angry, but at last she couldn't help but chuckle.
"It's nothing, thank you for your concern, he didn't treat me well, you misunderstood. ”
The strong man rubbed the back of his head innocently, and dropped a sentence with a smile, "If you have something, just say it." Then he went back to his seat.
Duan Shanshan, who was very bored, opened the "Historical Records" on his lap again and began to read. From this moment on, until he got out of the car, he never said a word to the girl again, nor did he look at her again.
P.S. Theoretically, it is unlikely that the passengers who get on the SH bus to Yancheng are in the same carriage as the passengers who get on the bus from Hangzhou to Tancheng, but this is just a novelist's words, and it should not be enough to challenge the lower limit of the reader's IQ.
So far, Che Guanglong continues to lead the actor favorability survey with a 61.54% advantage, I wonder why so many people like this guy, but unfortunately the survey can't be accompanied by voting reasons. So I started a pinned post, hoping that people would simply leave a reason for your vote, which will also help me portray the character more likable, thank you.
Continue to ask for recommendations, ask for collections, ask for book reviews (not evaluation votes, give me some recommendations for book reviews and so on, so that I can have the confidence to write down)!
