Part 2 Chapter 4 The sound of the piano is melodious
Zhu Xiaolan walked angrily towards the community, the children in the yard ran around, and there were constantly loud voices of adults greeting and scolding. She smelled the fragrance of vegetables from various houses, stepped on the stairs and went up the six arms, panting and opening the door to see Zhou Yu coming out of the kitchen with a big basin and sitting on the sofa eating noodles.
"Why did you have dinner?" Zhu Xiaolan closed them, "It's noodles again, aren't there any leftovers in the refrigerator?"
Zhou Yuxili snorted and said while eating, "It's so heavy hot pot flavor, you don't call me when you eat hot pot?"
Zhu Xiaolan threw her bag on the sofa, collapsed on the sofa, and said lazily: "The director gave me a blind date today, which one do you guess?"
Zhou Yu glanced at Zhu Xiaolan's pale face with disdain, and said, "You dare to go out on a blind date before you clean up your façade?
Zhu Xiaolan got up suddenly, stared at Zhou Yu, and said, "Do you remember the man I told you three years ago? I met you on the construction site, and I told you that their company cut corners!"
Zhou Yu rolled his eyes and said, "Who remembers? What do you say about cutting corners, those who steal less these years are considered kind! Just your dead head cares about these things every day, you have drawn so many pictures, and you don't see how much money you get? You have to pay rent again on the weekend, how much money do you have?"
Zhu Xiaolan Nuonuo said: "Didn't I take all my money home!"
"Phew!" Zhou Yu took a sip elegantly, and said: "It's really faceful to hand over the money to your mother when you're such an adult! If you want the truth to be a good object, I'm also worried about him, you haven't grown up at all, bother!" Zhou Yu's long chopsticks picked up a large string of noodles and stuffed it into his mouth. Chew it two or three times and swallow it, and say, "Say, who is it?"
Zhu Xiaolan was a little sullen. Said: "I used to know a decoration designer, but now he said that he came out to open a company and worked alone! It's just that thought I can't accept!"
"What thoughts, let's hear it!" Zhou Yu was really interested, this Zhu Xiaolan was her college classmate and roommate, and among the many strange-looking people, she could be regarded as an even stranger person. She looked like a well-behaved woman. Usually it's very talkative, but when you screw it, it's really amazing. What's even more infuriating is that the places where she made a mistake are very trivial things that are not worth mentioning in the eyes of others.
Zhu Xiaolan talked about Lin Shengjie's lunch box theory and the theory that the steel pipe is one millimeter thinner, and after finishing speaking, she made a very contemptuous look, and said: "He is just arguing with strong words, obviously he is wrong, and he makes excuses for himself, and makes himself look very right." It's the first time I've met such a thick-skinned person!"
Zhou Yu stopped her chopsticks... Looking at Zhu Xiaolan's excited appearance strangely, she remembered that someone once said that saying bad things about others behind her back is a very bad character. She thought. said: "I still think this person is quite reliable." ”
Zhu Xiaolan's eyes widened, and then she sighed again. This friend of hers. is clearly the same kind of person as Lin Shengjie, she is really a pig's head to complain to her.
"Xiaolan. If everyone in the world obeys the rules like you, then there will be peace in the world! Let's put it this way, the rules are made to serve the managers, so that the managers can manage better. But there are also more people in this society who know the real purpose of these rules, and they are not convinced to accept the management of others, so they have to do what they need to do to circumvent the rules under the current system to succeed. Zhou Yu saw Zhu Xiaolan's disapproving look, and knew that it was useless to tell her more, so he said: "Just say that you are a dead brain, you see that the law firm has not carried out a consulting business called reasonable tax avoidance now, if you are interested, you can study it well!" Zhou Yu finished eating the noodles, put down the chopsticks and touched his stomach, and said: "If you really want to find an object that completely meets your imagination, I'm afraid you can only go to the army to find it, and the soldier is like a mountain!"
"Don't be sarcastic about me!" Zhu Xiaolan said sullenly, "I know what's wrong with me, but I just can't get used to him like that!"
"Classmate Zhu Xiaolan, aren't you known as the kindest person in the world? How can there be someone you can't get used to? Besides, it's not easy for a man you don't like to make you remember for years!" Zhou Yu got up with the basin, and the chopsticks jingled on the basin, "Without rebellious youth, people will not grow up." Zhu Xiaolan, you have been obedient until you are 27 years old, but in fact, your psychological age is only 14 years old! I think you like other people! Haha, only 14-year-old people will like others, but they can't get used to it!"
Zhu Xiaolan blushed and said, "I won't tell you, I'll go to sleep!"
Zhu Xiaolan and Zhou Yu were not very good friends in college, Zhu Xiaolan is introverted and does not like to participate in group activities, if it is not for the scholarship every semester, her name will definitely appear in the first place, almost no one will remember her. Zhou Yu is different, Zhou Yu was born to be a person who leads others, she has been a class president for four years in college, and she can always be seen active in all collective activities in the college. She is capable and beautiful, and she speaks and is very thoughtful, and she has always been Zhu Xiaolan's idol.
Zhou Yu exudes a strong aura, giving people a strong sense of presence, and Zhu Xiaolan is shrouded by such an aura all the time. She got along with Zhou Yu cautiously, and there was a little smug in it. Zhou Yu actually dislikes people like her who are good for nothing but studying, but an incident when they were about to graduate from their senior year changed their views on each other.
Senior year, the age of going their separate ways. Some people broke up, some people fell in love, some people were sad, some people were satisfied, some people were disappointed, and some people had no regrets, of course, there was no shadow of Zhou Yu and Zhu Xiaolan among these people. Zhu Xiaolan is autistic, so she doesn't have a boyfriend, and Zhou Yu is too flamboyant and can't look down on all the so-called unpromising boys who take the initiative to pursue her. At the end of her senior year, the two of her sat in the dormitory and looked at each other, waiting for a late night meeting her boyfriend's roommate.
Zhou Yu was sad and lost, how could she not have a boyfriend? She couldn't figure it out, so she bought two bottles of Red Star Erguotou at the store downstairs, threw one to Zhu Xiaolan, and said, "Drink it." It's good to get drunk and get a good night's sleep, what's the big deal, isn't it just that you don't have a boyfriend? took a big sip, and then looked at Zhu Xiaolan with a smile.
Zhu Xiaolan unscrewed the cap of the bottle. He hesitated to take a sip, and the spicy taste in his mouth was unpleasant. She stuck out her tongue and refused to drink any more.
Zhou Yu looked at Zhu Xiaolan's appearance and became angry, snatched the bottle, and said, "Drink if you want." If you don't drink it, don't drink it at all. Look at you like that, you obviously want to drink but pretend not to drink, why bother? Lao Tzu drank it all by himself!"
Zhu Xiaolan lowered her head and said: "I also look down on myself, I obviously want to do something, but I don't dare to do it!"
"What don't you dare? I want to have your grades, go around three times in the whole grade, and walk with the wind!" Zhou Yu looked at Zhu Xiaolan with disdain, and said, "Tell me, what do you want to do? This university will be over soon." If you don't do it, you won't have a chance!"
Zhu Xiaolan thought for a while and said, "I want to be the same as you." Don't get up early in the morning to buy breakfast for you and take a seat; I don't want to show you my notes and assignments when I'm close to the exam, and I want to peek at other people's papers when I'm taking the exam. I don't want to be in a daze and don't dare to hand in the exam papers first, I want to go out to work part-time, and I don't want to watch you meet every weekend and go out and stay alone in an empty classroom. The more Zhu Xiaolan spoke, the more her eyes became redder. She wiped her eyes twice and said, "I don't want to be like this either!"
Zhou Yu smiled and drank two small bottles of liquor, climbed into bed in a daze, and said inarticulately: "I look down on people like you the most, you have no heart and no guts, and you have a nest!" After speaking, he burped and stuffed two empty bottles under his pillow.
The dormitory was dimly lit, and the other sisters hadn't come back yet. Zhu Xiaolan sat bored, so she leaned on the window and looked blindly, below is a row of cement table tennis tables, occasionally couples sit on the table and talk about love.
When it was almost time to turn off the lights, several boys took guitars and sat on the cement platform, and Zhu Xiaolan was interested. There are a lot of romances downstairs in the girls' dormitory, especially on the side of their windows, where there are many boys calling for lovers or singing love songs downstairs. Zhu Xiaolan hurriedly shook Zhou Yu's body and said, "Zhou Yu, look, someone is singing again!"
As he spoke, he heard the sound of playing the guitar, and there was a faint man singing something.
Zhou Yu got up in a daze, looked out, turned his head with a smile, and said, "I really didn't see it, I sang it for you!"
Zhu Xiaolan didn't believe it, Zhou Yu was stunned and said: "Isn't that one who plays the piano the one in the academy or something!"
Zhu Xiaolan was secretly happy in her heart, but she was more shy, and she wanted to stick out her head to look but didn't dare to look.
Zhou Yu stretched out his head with the strength of the wine and said, "Who are you looking for?"
A group of boys laughed and laughed, and a voice like a thunderbolt sounded, "Zhu Xiaolan!"
There were a lot of girls in the next room, and many people were shouting, "Come down!" and "Come down!"
Zhu Xiaolan sat at the head of the bed in a daze, not knowing what to do at all, only shrunk down to listen to those faint voices.
I don't know how long the time passed, and the sound of the heckling gradually dimmed, but the sound of the guitar was still the same.
Zhou Yu opened his eyes, only to see Zhu Xiaolan listening to the sound with tears on her face, while her hand was grasping something indiscriminately. Her heart was on fire when she saw it, and said, "If you want to go down, wash your face, if you don't want to go down, I'll deal with it for you!"
Zhu Xiaolan wiped her eyes and choked up: "I'll just listen to it, no one has ever sung to me!"
Zhou Yu fumbled with the two wine bottles under the pillow, opened the window, and shouted: "Sing, sing, sing for a long time, now it's midnight." Fuck off!" said two glass bottles whizzing down, only to hear two crisp glass shattering sounds and a boy's wail.
"Alright, the world is quiet!"
As soon as I finished speaking, I heard the sound of girls laughing in the next room, and there were a lot of people who wanted to come and see.
Zhu Xiaolan's mouth opened wide and she couldn't speak.
"You're smart, you're not overwhelmed. Damn, what kind of bullshit genius, he still talked in front of other boys, and said that he would soak you before graduation!" Zhou Yu said contemptuously, and pulled the quilt to sleep.
Zhu Xiaolan stood by the window in a daze, watching a few dark shadows walk away along the wall of the dormitory, and there seemed to be those melodious and lingering guitar sounds in her ears.
Since that night, Zhu Xiaolan has treated Zhou Yu sincerely, and Zhou Yu has also taken Zhu Xiaolan into his sphere of influence, which can be regarded as covering her. Later, when they looked for jobs, they both stayed in the city again, and they rented the same house until now.
