Chapter 235
“…… I have to say that the British are really looking for a place, and when you look at this Sydney, it is simply a unique place in the world, and if you rank the ports of the world, Sydney will definitely be ranked in. Why? Because it is a huge bay with a very small mouth and a very large belly, and there is no big river entering the sea, but all such places are one of the few good ports in the world!
Australia is a vast and sparsely populated place, the breadth of the land is equivalent to the distance from London to Moscow, the area is similar to the mainland of the United States, but the population is about the same as Texas, and as long as the population is concentrated in the coast, 85% of Australians live within 50 kilometers of the coastline, and the inland is a large area of hot and arid desert, and most places are very short of water.
Australia is also a very poisonous place, with some of the world's most venomous jellyfish and snakes in the world, and some snakes can kill a hundred people with 10 milligrams of venom......
The cities are mainly concentrated in the coastal areas, and the rural areas are mainly inland, and the farmers here are real local tyrants, and many farmers are driving private planes to herd cattle!
Of course, there are also uneven economic developments, for example, the economy of New South Wales, where Sydney is located, is almost equal to that of Austria, while the economy of the Northern Territory is only equal to that of Nepal......"
"With such a huge disparity in economic level, I wonder if the Australian people will also engage in regional discrimination?" Gu Xiyan listened with interest, secretly pondering in her heart.
From the airport to the school, from history to the present, from the economy to the humanities, from the scenery to the accent, Ouyang Yichen did not let everyone's ears be idle, it seemed that he could talk with ease, there was no trace of coldness along the way, Gu Xiyan looked at the "crooked nuts" on the street through the car window, a smile rose at the corner of his mouth, more than ten years of Australian life "watered" Ouyang Yichen, a combination of Chinese and Western "know-it-all", I don't know if this guy is also this look like he can't stop the car with one mouth when he is in class?
However, she admits that not everyone has the ability to speak like a river, first of all, you have to have the goods in your stomach!
After lunch, Gu Xiyan stood leisurely in the corridor outside the room, examining the itinerary, "satisfying" the habits of the Chinese, but also combined with the Australian style, if in China, he should be a good hand in "and thin mud", undoubtedly, Ouyang Yichen has no details,
"Don't you want to rest for a while?" Ouyang Yichen saw Gu Xiyan in the corridor as soon as he turned the stairs.
"Didn't you rest too?" Gu Xiyan replied with a smile, raising the itinerary in his hand, "The mind is careful enough, and the arrangement is not leaky." ”
"You're right, you must not leak!" Ouyang Yichen stood firmly in front of Gu Xiyan, "You take a good look at this whole school, I have two words written on my face - China." ”
"You can really represent ......" Obviously, Gu Xiyan regarded Ouyang Yichen's "sudden" patriotism as a "ridicule" in daily life.
"In China, you can't experience it. Ouyang Yichen raised his eyebrows and quickly changed the topic, "Don't you need to rest?"
"Maybe it's a little too excited," Gu Xiyan could feel Ouyang Yichen's slightly low mood, everyone has indescribable helplessness and suffering, even if the trajectory of life sometimes goes against your original intention, you have to straighten your waist and support it, "What about you? ”
"If you're not tired, I'll take you somewhere. Ouyang Yichen seems to ignore emotions quickly, which is the advantage brought to him by long-term independent life.
"Where are you going?" Gu Xiyan was a little curious about Ouyang Yichen's "Xiao Zao", and then looked at the room next to her, "I'll call Professor Zhao." ”
"Shhhhhhh ”
"Is it appropriate?" Gu Xiyan glared with an expression of "extremely inappropriate".
"Let's go and go back, that's where they can sleep. ”
Gu Xiyan stood outside the fence gate, similar to the fence gate of the B courtyard, but in front of him was a two-story small building, with pure white walls, green doors and windows, and the huge phoenix wood had begun to appear enchanting, echoing the lawn under the tree, and the color saturation was definitely a pleasing scenery.
"This is ......," Gu Xiyan hesitated and did not continue to move.
"Dad, you're finally back!" The door was opened, and a little girl came down the stairs and rushed over, "Hello, Gu Xiyan, I'm Angel Ouyang." ”
"Would it be better for you to call Auntie?" Ouyang Yichen shook his head and looked at his daughter who rushed to Gu Xiyan excitedly, yes, he promised her, as soon as Gu Xiyan arrived, he arranged for them to meet, and the child was really the most impatient.
"I've always felt that I can be called Auntie just like Jessica, you know, she looks like she's 40 years old!" Angel looked Gu Xiyan up and down happily, "Gu Xiyan, are you 40 years old?"
"Hahaha......" Gu Xiyan laughed, the little girl in front of her, her brown hair fell on her shoulders, her fair face was with baby fat, her brown pupils were full of excitement, and a few small freckles dotted on the bridge of her nose jumped with her lively expression, "I may not be 40 years old until a while." ”
"If you have to let me choose, then I will choose Gu Xiyan......" Angel looked at Ouyang Yichen with his eyes, looking resolute.
"Call Auntie. Ouyang Yichen's tone was full of "uncompromising".
"It's okay, I like Angel's name. Gu Xiyan smiled and touched Angel's hair.
"Is Mommy okay too?" said Angel's eyes with a sly look.
"Angel!" Ouyang Yichen finally accentuated.
"I know Mommy doesn't just call her, so even if Jessica wasn't 40, I wouldn't call her Mommy. Angel smiled mischievously, "Auntie, you must want to see what my house is like, right?
Before Gu Xiyan could get out of the conversation between the father and daughter, she was pulled into the house by Angel, and the little girl looked excited, and her ears were full of her "chirping" excitement.
"It was a gift from my dad when I was 5 years old...... Angel said, pointing to a model dinosaur.
"This is the ...... I won in the speech contest"
"And this, my mother gave it to me, but she now has her own child and doesn't have time to buy me another ......"
"This is what my dad brought back from China last time," Angel said proudly, taking the puzzle pieces from the cabinet of the Forbidden City, "cooler than anything here, I put it together myself." ”
"You are very powerful!" Gu Xiyan has always been infected by Angel's joy, she is not like a child from a divorced family, she doesn't seem to be troubled in the slightest, Ouyang Yichen must be a good father, there is no shortage of material and love.
"That's what my dad said!" Angel's smile kept on his lips, "I love him the most, how about you?"
Gu Xiyan looked at Angel in surprise, looking at her with a serious look, a little helpless, Angel undoubtedly included himself in the category of "screening", "Your father is a very good person......
"Then do you love him?" Angel's widening eyes locked on Gu Xiyan tightly, "You know, he is the best man in the world." ”
"We are...... Partners, too...... Very good friend. Maybe there was a little expectation in those eyes, and her joy made Gu Xiyan envious, and she couldn't bear to refuse.
"Then maybe you're a special friend of his. Angel lowered her eyes and continued to fiddle with her gadgets, her tone tinged with a little frustration.
"I'm honored. Gu Xiyan didn't know why, Angel would touch her heart so much, she didn't want to destroy her imagination.
"But can't you really be my mommy?" Angel raised her eyes again, with a little mist in her eyes, she had a natural liking for Gu Xiyan, she liked this Gu Xiyan with long hair and gentle and delicate speech.
Gu Xiyan suddenly realized Angel's inner desire, she had been looking forward to having a mother...... Gu Xiyan's heart was bumped and hurt, what a happy child she looked!
"That must be that Dad hasn't done well enough," Angel muttered to himself in Gu Xiyan's frustration, "If you want to be my mommy one day, you can come to me, okay?"
"......" Gu Xiyan couldn't say half a "no", the world of children is very simple, and they can take any wish for granted, while the world of adults is too complicated, and many things are powerless and helpless.
"Because Ouyang Yichen doesn't have a girlfriend, he has to work all day, lecture all day, be with me all day long, talk to me about the four great inventions, talk to me about the Xia Shang and Western Zhou, talk to me about the Forbidden City, the Temple of Heaven, the Taihe Palace, and talk to me about the four beauties, isn't it boring? Isn't it pitiful? Isn't it ......" Angel seemed to be heartbroken, and when he talked about "loneliness", he was "sad" and cried.
"Angel!" Ouyang Yichen stood at the door with a plate of fruit, "Are you still going to sell me?"
Angel stopped abruptly, stuck out his tongue with a smile, and shrugged his shoulders, "Auntie doesn't plan to accept it, Ouyang Yichen, you can only charm me alone now......"
"Are you ready for the debate topic for the weekend?" Ouyang Yichen put the fruit on the table, ignoring the girl's teasing, and turned a thousand pounds in twos.
"I'll go to the study right now......"
"I'm sorry, but Angel always wished she had a mom, and many times she would measure me by the same standard...... Friends of the opposite sex. Ouyang Yi showed a hint of "distress".
"I can see that she is very eager, it doesn't seem to be a difficult thing for you, right?" Gu Xiyan teased.
"It's suitable, it's not easy!" Ouyang Yichen patted the back of the chair helplessly.
"Once bitten by a snake, ten years afraid of the well rope?"
"This is called eating a trench and growing wisdom. ”
"Don't you look like a cautious person?"
"How can a man with connotation be able to see through it at a glance?"
"No wonder Angel is always ready to sell you. ”
"Hahaha......"
I don't know if it's because I see Angel's elf cuteness, Gu Xiyan is also very eager to have such a daughter, children are a topic that has rarely been mentioned in the past two years, but everyone who understands, because of her feelings, have intentionally or unintentionally avoided this topic, and Angel, who saw the ghost horse today, suddenly made her realize that this wish has always been so tenaciously buried in her heart......
Why is it that what is natural in the eyes of others has become unattainable in my own world?
Ling Zhanchi's call came as promised, and she almost blurted out "Let's have a child too"!
"Good, go to bed early......"
Ling Zhanchi's voice came from far away, sounding even more magnetic, like hypnosis, filling her ears with softness......
Life is like a lottery drawn in a random hand, which reads "on the top of the great luck", the peaks and loops, the willows and flowers, and finally put the right person in the right position, those brocade clothes at night, pearls secretly cast, sometimes it feels like sleeping on the bench, complaining and complaining, regretting and regretting, and falling asleep!
