Chapter 64: A Tired Phone Call
At nine o'clock the next morning, Gu Fei slipped to the wet balcony. He shook his head, carefully avoiding the dripping clothes above his head, and called home.
There's no way he can do it.
There were six of them in a dormitory, and four of them had just eaten the breakfast that Gu Fei had brought back, and they had just laid down and closed their eyes. After a night in the sky, they were ready to sleep well, and in the evening they got up to fight again.
The one who answered the phone was Gu Fei's mother, Huang Juan.
"Mom. It's me! ”
"Xiaofei?" Huang Juan suddenly heard her son's voice and asked happily, "I called you last night, and your mobile phone was turned off." Later, I called your dormitory again, and your classmates said that you were not there for the time being. Nothing happened, did it? ”
"It's okay." Gu Fei slightly explained his situation last night.
However, he knew that his mother must not understand what design or machinery, so he simply said to help the teacher do something unfathomable. As for the trivial things such as going out to work to earn rations, he can not mention it. In the past, if Huang Juan asked, he would switch to a powerful work-study program.
When Huang Juan heard this, she immediately relieved herself.
In her heart, as long as she has a relationship with the teacher, it will not be a bad thing, so she doesn't have to worry about what will happen to her son.
"Yes, Dumbo!" Huang Juan asked anxiously: "Your sister-in-law and I went to withdraw money yesterday, and when we checked the bank account, we found that you sent us a large sum of money last time. Xiaofei, tell your mother honestly, where did the money come from? ”
Gu Fei was a little speechless.
He only sent a month's and a half months' salary back last time, and it was only more than 10,000 yuan, which is actually a lot of money?
However, it is also understood that Gu Fei's more than 10,000 yuan is almost the total income of their hometown without eating or drinking for more than half a year, and Huang Juan said that it was a huge amount of money, and he was not surprised.
Gu Fei had no choice but to push the money on the teacher who had nothing to do.
Huang Juan was stunned by this unwarranted teacher, and after half a ring, she asked, "You sent all the money back." What about your living expenses? ”
"Don't worry." Gu Fei laughed and said, "Mom, do you think I'll be so stupid that I don't leave a penny on me?" ”
Huang Juan breathed a sigh of relief and agreed: "That's good." When you go out alone, you can leave nothing behind, and it's the right thing to fill your stomach first. ”
Gu Fei shook his head with a smile and did not speak.
Every time he called back, he could hear something like that, and he had long been used to it.
Huang Juan's worried voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Xiaofei, you're graduating from your senior year now! I've heard that it costs a lot of money to find a job after graduation. Now that your grandparents are gone, there is nothing to spend at home except for Xiaoying to go to school. Why don't I send you some back? ”
Gu Fei was stunned for a moment, and only after half a ring did he reply with a relaxed smile: "No need." ”
"Mom, don't you know about your son? I never tell lies, my job is easy to find, and it doesn't cost me anything. Besides, my 'teacher' job continues, and I earn some money every month.
You don't have to worry about money. Leave some to make up for the three of you, and if there are others, pay off the debts of your relatives first! ”
Without waiting for Huang Juan to reply, Gu Fei hurriedly changed the topic with emotion.
"Time flies so fast, I didn't expect Xiaoying to go to school in a blink of an eye. I still remember when I hugged her more than three years ago, the little girl was not as tall as a chair. ”
"Isn't it?" Huang Juan was easily brought aside by Gu Fei's topic.
She babbled and said, "Now the whole village is about the same age as you, and you are a bachelor." More than a dozen of your cousins are married. Like the eighteenth cousin next door, do you remember? ”
Gu Fei nodded speechlessly.
"Remember! It's a naughty little cousin who was pushed to the fork of a tree by his own buffalo and spit blood. Mom......" Gu Fei sighed and shouted at a long time: "I've only been out for more than three years, and it's not amnesia." How could you not know them? ”
"Just remember. He's so much younger than you, but he got married two months ago. And your thirty-second aunt, she has been married for more than half a year, and yesterday she sent someone back to say that she was pregnant. ”
Gu Fei's head became a lot bigger when he heard this, and he hurriedly smiled: "Mom, if someone wants to get married, let him get married, and if he wants to get pregnant, let her get pregnant." It's none of your business, why don't you take care of your body and your little granddaughter now? ”
"Why is it none of my business?" Huang Juan became angry when she heard this.
"A few days ago, Mrs. Li San from Li Village next door, she killed a duck I raised for no reason. I couldn't get angry for a while, so I went to her to theorize.
Good guys, there are a total of 12 people in the family, up and down, and they stand in front of the door like a Great Wall. And what about your mother and me, who are about the same age as her, there is only one lonely and pitiful granddaughter around me when I look left and right, do you say that I am not angry? ”
Gu Fei scratched his head vigorously with a bitter face.
For thousands of years, the concept of having more children and more blessings has been deeply rooted in the minds of many Chinese people. I wanted to correct it with just one or two sentences, but Gu Fei didn't think he had that ability. He let out a long sigh and remained silent.
"Xiaofei." Huang Juan changed her eager tone: "In the past few years, are you still in touch with your aunt?" ”
When Gu Fei heard this, he suddenly made a "bang", and his head slammed on the floor door of the balcony.
As soon as he heard the beginning of the words "marriage", he knew that sooner or later this fire would burn from his little niece to himself.
In Gu Fei's hometown, dozens or hundreds of households in a village are often one family, all with the same surname. The "aunt" in Huang Juan's mouth is her forty-sixth cousin, who happened to be in the same class as Gu Fei in middle school.
When I was in school, my aunt was still a regular classmate, and when I saw Gu Fei, I was just indifferent to passers-by. However, when Gu Fei came to his grandmother's house as a guest during the Chinese New Year, this aunt and classmate would wait at the door of Gu Fei's grandmother's house, and after listening to him obediently bow his head and grit his teeth and shout an aunt, she left happily.
"Mom, where are you going here?" Gu Fei wiped his sweat again and again, "Since I went to college, I haven't been in touch with her anymore." ”
"Your sister-in-law is very nice, not only is she well-behaved, but she also went to college."
Gu Fei was a little silent.
There are many college students on the Internet, but in reality, in many rural areas, it is still a rare species like pandas. The vast majority of children have just finished junior high school and are already content to go out to work.
"Really haven't been in touch again?" Huang Juan couldn't help but ask again.
"Not really!" Gu Fei had no choice but to cut through the mess quickly and reply categorically.
"......" Huang Juan cushioned for so long, and finally asked this sentence carefully. So Xiaofei, do you have a girlfriend at school? ”
"Mom, I'm still in school, don't worry. And I'm very busy right now, and I'm going to help the teacher soon. Gu Fei had no choice but to open his eyes and tell nonsense.
Gu Fei quickly said a few more words and hung up the phone in a hurry.
