55. Helpless explanation

The Hou family lives to the west of Xinlin School: Houjiazhuang, which is more than eight miles away. And the road in front of Xinlin School is the road to the east in the direction of the county seat. That is to say: Hao Jian sent his former teacher Yan Ruyu home today, and he had to ride 16 miles back and forth, turn to the road in front of the school, and then ride more than 4 miles to the east to find an electric rickshaw, and then drive for more than 100 miles for three hours to get to the D county seat!

However, the road between Xiaozhuang Village and Houjiazhuang belongs to the kind of sheep intestine path. Regardless of the time and place, four-wheeled vehicles can only take a detour. Usually, in addition to pedestrians' feet on them, it is some bicycles that patronize them.

In those days, there were certainly not a few trails like this. Although they are also the same as those main roads in the countryside, they have endured the storm for a day and a night. However, at the moment, they are quite flat and hard compared to those main roads in the countryside!

Therefore, it is effortless for Rao is Hao Jian to ride on this sheep intestine trail with people. At this moment, although he is riding a bicycle with the wind under his feet, he still has the sad thing in his heart: if Hou Weidong and Li Yue'e did not go to other places to drink happy wine. At this time, I was going through the resignation procedures at the county bureau, but I made a mistake because I sent Mr. Yan home. Wouldn't we only have to "regret for life"!

Thinking of this, Hao Jian whispered to Yan Ruyu behind him: Teacher Yan, the student suddenly remembered that there was one more thing in the school, and he hadn't instructed other teachers to implement it. I'd better ask someone to take you home!

Yan Ruyu behind her, of course, understood: These words were just Hao Jian's excuse to get rid of her. She secretly scolded Hao Jian in her heart: Hao Jian, you know that Li Yue'e is my daughter-in-law, and you still defile her. At this moment, you still want to stop her and Weidong from going to work in other places. Let's get past me first!

Immediately, Yan Ruyu suddenly turned from the original muffled snort to a choked cry: Hey, the ancients all knew that one day is a teacher and a father for life. Hao Jian, it's too troublesome for you to even send your teacher home. It's so disappointing and chilling!

Then, Hao Jian felt that Teacher Yan, who was lying behind him, was twitching violently. He looked very, very sad to be angry!

Seeing that Teacher Yan was so sad, Hao Jian couldn't say anything more!(Hey, even if he is really a "hard-hearted" person, I am afraid he will be shocked in the face of Yan Ruyu's "grievance"!) The next Hao Jian can only be helpless to ride like an athlete to the extreme, riding and riding under his feet----

Hao Jian dreamed of "One Thousand and One Nights", and he would never have thought that a woman would follow him from afar. He wouldn't even know that his wife, who had always trusted and cared for him, had become extremely suspicious of him!

After more than an hour, Hao Jian finally rode to the door of Hou's house. Yan Ruyu pressed her abdomen and pretended to get out of the car, took out a handkerchief and wiped her eyes twice. Then, he took out the key to open the door of the hall and turned to him, and sent out an invitation with a smile: Hao Jian, you can sit in the room for a while, and let the teacher cook a few side dishes to express your gratitude!

Hao Jian thought to himself: Teacher Yan, we must hurry to the county bureau and do our best to prevent your son and daughter-in-law from being transferred to work. Thinking of this, Hao Jian squeezed out some smiles and said: Teacher Yan, we have already said that there are still things in the school, and we have not instructed the teachers to implement them. Therefore, it is impossible for us to have lunch at your place today. I hope you will forgive me!

When Yan Ruyu heard this, she couldn't help but roll up her sleeves and glance at the watch on her wrist. I saw that the tip of the hour hand was at 10:20. She couldn't help but wonder to herself: Wei Dong and Yue'e went out from home at about six o'clock, went to the "Martyrs' Cemetery" east of Xinlin School to meet Principal Lu, and then took an electric rickshaw to the county bureau to submit a letter of resignation.

It takes about three and a half hours for an electric rickshaw to go to the county seat from here, when the road is flat and hard. What's more, today's roads are muddy, and electric rickshaws certainly can't go fast. Besides, there are still some procedures for "resignation" to be handled at the county bureau. In this way, they may not have gotten into the car of Pi County at this time. Now, we have to think about it anyway, and try to delay Hao Jian's time as much as possible!

So, Yan Ruyu took Hao Jian's hand and said: Hao Jian, no matter what, you sent the teacher home today. If, you don't mind if the teacher just bothered you again and again. Please come in for a snack and a cup of tea! Otherwise, we'll pay you double the fare. If it really doesn't work, let's kneel down and apologize to you!

When Hao Jian heard this, his heart churned rapidly: Hao Jian, Teacher Yan's words are all about this. Can you still refuse?

However, Hao Jian thought more: If we don't agree, if Teacher Yan comes to kneel down and let her neighbors see it, we will be "disobedient to the teacher, unkind and unjust". If this matter really comes to that point, I will be a bad element who "can't be washed away by jumping into the Yellow River". Then, aren't we even more: for no reason, have we become the "rats crossing the street" that everyone spurns?

When Hao Jian thought about it like this, he didn't dare to disobey Teacher Yan's "deliberate retention". So, he obediently followed Mr. Yan into the Hou family hall and sat on the combined black leather sofa by the west wall. Looking at the photo frame on the opposite wall: Teacher Yan and his wife sat together, two children squatted in front of them, two older children stood beside their grandparents, and Hou Weidong and Li Yue'e hugged each other and stood behind Teacher Yan and his wife. What a warm "family photo"!

Although, above the photo, everyone is smiling the same "sunny". However, Hao Jian just felt that Li Yue'e's smile was the most obsessive. Anyone who is a man, who sees it, can't help but cry a hala----

Hao Jian thought vigorously, but he didn't know: on the edge of the haystack outside the kitchen of the Hou family, Cai Yulu supported the bicycle and locked the chain. He walked gently to the door of the Hou family hall: under a tall and thick osmanthus tree, he looked at the door of the hall from time to time. I always think about those incomprehensible questions: Hey, why did Teacher Yan pretend to be sick and have to let Hao Jian send her home?

Pressing Hao Jian on the combination of black leather sofas, Mr. Yan turned around and came to the long table close to the back wall, holding a round ceramic jar with a small belly in one hand, and picking up the tea bottle on the table with the other, and then turned around and walked to the glass coffee table in front of Hao Jian.

In this way, Yan Ruyu saw it: Hao Jian greedily looked at the "family portrait" on the opposite wall. Her heart was like overturning a bottle of sauce and vinegar, and it merged into a sour and spicy fire of jealousy, burning her heart. It seemed like she was about to explode, and it hurt her!

However, Yan Ruyu's consciousness was not confused. She understood that she wanted to delay him more time by forcing a smile to keep Hao Jian. In order to achieve her goal, at this moment, even if she has the fire of "rushing to the sky", she must absolutely suppress it in her heart. In order for Weidong and Yue'e to leave N County "calmly", she is pretending to be a fool in front of Hao Jian, and she will not give up!

In Yan Ruyu's heart, there was a voice shouting over and over again: Don't be impulsive, be calm! So, she squeezed out a smile and walked to the glass coffee table in front of Hao Jian, bent down and pulled off the lid of the ceramic jar and erected it.

The sound of fragrant peanuts falling on the coffee table provoked Hao Jian to come back from his obsession. looked at Yan Ruyu and said polite words: Teacher Yan, you are so polite. I'm so embarrassed!

When Yan Ruyu heard this, she scolded angrily in her heart: Hao Jian, you are a hypocrite with a beast's heart. However, she pretended to be casual and said humblely: Hao Jian, these peanuts are just a little bit of the landlord's suitability. It's not worth mentioning at all!

As she spoke, Yan Ruyu picked up a glass cup on the tray on the coffee table again, reached into the "Jasmine" tea bag next to the tray, and pinched out some tea leaves and put them into the teacup. Then he picked up the teapot and put it up. Immediately, a stream of crystal-like flawless liquid flowed into the cup, steaming hot and singing seductive songs.

After a while, small white flowers floated in the cup, like a shy bride, slowly raised their heads, opened their green coats and looked playfully at the world outside the glass.

Yan Ruyu turned: While peeling peanuts and throwing them into his mouth, he looked at Hao Jian, who was in the "family photo" on the opposite wall, and reminded: Hao Jian, the tea in front of you can be drunk. After a while, the taste of tea is old, but it doesn't taste good!

Hao Jian retracted his obsessive gaze and said embarrassedly: Teacher Yan, we have lived half of our lives, but we have never seen such a "pleasing to the eye" woman as Mr. Li. Just now, it really made you laugh. I hope you will forgive me!

As he spoke, Hao Jian was extremely embarrassed to take a few sips of the teacup in front of him, and boasted: Oh, this jasmine tea, the taste is really wonderful and attractive. It's a pity that our Yulu likes to drink a kind of green tea!

Yan Ruyu couldn't help but say sourly: Hao Jian, in your heart at the moment, I'm afraid that "the drunkard's intention is not to drink". In other words, "alcohol is not intoxicating, and people are drunk". is too greedy in the world, but it will be "destroyed by heaven and earth"!

As soon as Yan Ruyu's words landed, Hao Jian hurriedly explained: Mr. Yan, I really praise the wonderful taste of this "jasmine" tea. Don't get me wrong!

In fact, Yan Ruyu also knew: Hao Jian's words just now were really praising the taste of "jasmine" tea. However, looking at Hao Jian's obsessive look, she couldn't help but "knock on the side" of Hao Jian.

Now, Hao Jian's words made her sober up all of a sudden: Ruyu, Ruyu, how long you can keep Hao Jian today is equivalent to how much time you have bought for Weidong and Yue'e. You must not forget your purpose!

Thinking of this, Yan Ruyu reached out from the tray, took out a cup and put it in front of her, and then pinched out some tea leaves from the "Jasmine" tea bag and put them in the teacup. Immediately, he picked up the teabottle and stood up to the mouth of the teacup, and poured himself a cup of tea.

Looking at the boiling heat coming from above the teacup, Yan Ruyu's mood finally calmed down. She couldn't help but secretly rejoice: she was able to control her emotions!

Yan Ruyu, who came to her senses, held Hao Jian's hand with both hands and said with a smile on her face: Hao Jian, I have nothing to do at home when I retire as a teacher, so I often go to Xinhua Bookstore to buy some novels and books to read. So, we said it "like no one", and it really didn't mean you. I hope you will forgive me!

At this moment, Hao Jian, who had just woken up from his obsession, had no chance to think about the intention of Mr. Yan's words just now. Yan Ruyu took his hand and explained vigorously, which made him feel embarrassed again. He took out a hand and gently took her hand, and said with a smile: "Teacher Yan, as your student, how can I be angry with you? Oh, your tea can also be drunk!"

While Hao Jian lowered his head to drink tea, Yan Ruyu hurriedly turned his head to aim: the clock face on the wall behind Hao Jian (just now, she asked Hao Jian to sit on the sofa by the west wall. In fact, it was intended to have his back to the clock face on the west wall. I saw that the clock face had already shown that the time had reached eleven twenty o'clock. She secretly wondered: Now, Weidong and Yue'e should also get on the bus to Pixian!

Thinking of this, Yan Ruyu couldn't help but drink tea with joy. However, she still didn't forget to think: Next, let's talk about something with Hao Jian. How can he not be suspicious?

At this time, the teacup in front of Hao Jian bottomed out. Looking at the empty cup, he remembered that he had more important things to do, and he absolutely couldn't stay here any longer! So, he gently put down the empty cup and stood up and said, "Teacher Yan, I have eaten peanuts and drunk tea." We still have something to do at school, so it's time to leave!

Hearing this, Yan Ruyu couldn't help but be overjoyed: Oh, we haven't figured out what to say to him next. So, she stood up and grabbed Hao Jian's hand and said duplicitously: Hao Jian, since you still have something to do. In the future, if you have time, you should remember to come and chat with your teacher!

Next, the pair of teachers and students walked out hand in hand, saying hypocritical polite words to each other. After a while, Hao Jian got on the bike and rode into the distance.

And Teacher Yan, who was still very enthusiastic just now, immediately turned around and closed the door of the hall. Running quickly to the kitchen door, he took out the key and inserted it into the keyhole and turned it. muttered to himself: Weidong, Yue'e, as a mother, I can only do so much for the two of you. From now on, you two can do it for yourselves!

Looking at Yan Ruyu bowing her head and inserting the key into the keyhole, Cai Yulu thought to herself: Oh, if she opens the kitchen door and closes the door, won't we have a chance to walk into the kitchen and ask her the long-suppressed question in her heart?

Thinking of this, Cai Yulu quickly got out from behind the stout osmanthus tree and walked gently towards Yan Ruyu step by step. His heart was churning rapidly: Yulu, you must wait until you follow Teacher Yan into the kitchen before you can ask. However, Cai Yulu didn't know: she has a masculine personality, and her words and deeds are very similar to men!

Rao is Cai Yulu walked cautiously, but her slightly heavy footsteps, which were different from other women, inevitably penetrated Yan Ruyu's ears. She couldn't help but turn her head to look, and when she saw that it was Cai Yulu, she suddenly thought: Wei Dong repeatedly told me when he left, no matter what, don't tell anyone the truth of the matter. Especially Cai Yulu!

Before leaving, Hou Weidong also said vigorously: Because Cai Yulu is a masculine woman, her words and deeds are as upright and bold as men. However, when she faces Hao Jian's betrayal, she will definitely be as irritable and extreme as a man. Maybe you won't be able to think about it!

Thinking of this, Yan Ruyu couldn't help but feel a pang in her heart: Hey, how long has she been in our house? Did she hear what I talked to Hao Jian? Did she hear a few more words? Could it be that she had already ---- but before she could think about this problem clearly, Cai Yulu had already come to her, looking at her without blinking her eyes and saying, "Teacher Yan, can we also go to your house to eat peanuts and drink tea?"

When Yan Ruyu heard this, she was shocked: Oh, listening to her voice, she has been coming to our house for a long time. I'm afraid she heard what I said to Hao Jian just now! At this time, Cai Yulu's masculine voice drifted into her ears with the wind very, very inappropriately: Teacher Yan, why did you do everything possible to trick Hao Jian into coming to the house to eat peanuts and drink tea?

Yan Ruyu secretly pondered in her heart: Hey, how could she know about this matter? Could it be that she went to follow Hao Jian this morning? Now, since she came to our house to look for me, I'm afraid that she will definitely not "give up" if she doesn't ask for a "Zi Chou Yimao"! Oh, what should I do?

However, Yan Ruyu hadn't figured out a reasonable countermeasure yet, and Cai Yulu threw a question at her again: Teacher Yan, you are so silent. What do you mean? Isn't it intended to "turn a blind eye" to me?

After Yan Ruyu heard this, her heart sank: Oh, this Cai Yulu is really an "aggressive" woman. I am really "ashamed of myself"! It seems that the matter of Hao Jian and Yue'e really can't be let her know. No matter what she said about me, I had to "keep my mouth shut." Absolutely must remember!

However, Yan Ruyu didn't know what else to say to Cai Yulu, so that she wouldn't "entangle" herself anymore? She couldn't help but reach out and scratch her hair. However, Cai Yulu's mouth on the other side seemed to be idle for a moment: Teacher Yan, you don't answer such questions, it seems that we are really not here today. Hey, in my opinion, you know the contradiction between Hao Jian and Brother Jianhua, but you are extremely reluctant to tell me, right?

Yan Ruyu knew it well: In front of her, this woman had already asked a few questions. If you don't speak, you won't be able to talk about it.

Thinking of this, Yan Ruyu squeezed out some smiles and said: His sister-in-law, we were extremely hungry just now, and we were thinking about whether to cook rice or noodles for today's lunch. I don't mean to snub you! I hope you don't want to be angry again, now let's take a small shovel to dig up a few vegetables, come back and fry the next noodles and eat them with you. You must not have eaten lunch either!

As she spoke, Yan Ruyu quickly ran into the kitchen at the base of the wall, bent down and took a small shovel and turned around and walked out.

However, Cai Yulu's fat body blocked the door, and she said stiffly: Teacher Yan, I didn't come to your house today to eat and drink. We just had a few questions that I didn't understand, and I would like you to ask you to answer them for me. Let's go to the hall over there and talk!

When Yan Ruyu heard this, she knew that if she didn't answer today, the woman's question in front of her would definitely not be able to do anything! So, she dropped the small shovel and said with a smile: Okay, let's take Ms. Cai to the hall to eat peanuts and drink tea while talking. Let's go!

When Cai Yulu heard this, she turned around and stood outside the door waiting for Teacher Yan.

Yan Ruyu casually closed the kitchen door, took Cai Yulu's hand and walked into the hall, pointed to the combination of black leather sofas on the west wall, and said with a smile: Ms. Cai, please sit down and eat peanuts. I'll pour two cups of tea and we'll moisten our throats!

As she spoke, Yan Ruyu reached out and took a cup from the tray again, and when she bent over to carry the tea bottle, Cai Yulu's laughing voice smashed into her ears coldly: Teacher Yan, you are quite neat. We want to know why you pretended to be sick and tricked Hao Jian into coming to your house this morning?

When Yan Ruyu heard it, she finally understood: Ah, it turns out that she has already seen everything I did in the morning. At this time, she decided that I would not come to the house for no reason, so she tricked Hao Jian into coming to the house. Hey, what should I say? Well, if she asks the truth, let's just "cheat and deny it." This is also a helpless explanation!

Thinking of this, Yan Ruyu met Cai Yulu's eyes and deliberately pretended to be stupid: What Ms. Cai said is right, I deceived Hao Jian to come to the house. I have a teacher-student relationship with him, Ms. Cai shouldn't suspect that there is no clarity between the two of us, right?

As soon as Yan Ruyu's words landed, she heard the other party's words that she didn't believe at all: Teacher Yan, when Hao Jian received a call from the county bureau, rushed into the dormitory and pulled out his bicycle and rode to the teacher's office, intending to turn around and ride towards the south school gate, you tricked Hao Jian into coming to his house to eat peanuts and drink tea. It shouldn't be as simple as telling the story of the teacher-student relationship, right?

Yan Ruyu's heart froze: Cai Yulu, you are really amazing. However, you won't understand that in order to prevent you from being heartbroken and going to a dead end, I can only stand up to you and play the game of "playing tricks and not admitting accounts" with you!

So, Yan Ruyu scratched her ears and cheeks and continued to pretend to be stupid: Yulu, because we are so bored at home because we are retired, we tricked Hao Jian into coming to the house to chat and talk. I really can't imagine that you don't believe that between me and Hao Jian, it is absolutely clear. So, how complicated do you think the relationship between me and Hao Jian is, I hope to teach me a lot. Let's absolutely "listen to you"!

Cai Yulu really didn't expect that Teacher Yan would deviate from the problem. She can only "open the skylight and say bright words": Teacher Yan, I remember Hao Jian shouting into the microphone: Director Xu, the bureau notified Principal Lu to pick up people the day before yesterday. And he didn't reveal a little bit of wind to me, obviously he was playing me like a monkey!

As she spoke, Cai Yulu couldn't help but raise her voice: Teacher Yan, I know that Hao Jian rushed into the dormitory angrily and took out the bicycle, he must have wanted to go to the county bureau to ask for clarification; I also know that Brother Jianhua must have gone to the county bureau today; I know that you know what the contradiction between Hao Jian and Brother Jianhua is about. Just stop him from going to the county bureau! Tell me the truth of the matter!

Yan Ruyu thought to herself: Cai Yulu, if I tell you, you won't be able to think about going to a dead end. Haven't I become an "executioner" who has been spurned by others! No, even if you insult me, or even beat me. I can't even tell you! So, she pretended to be inexplicable and said, "Ms. Cai, we really don't understand what you're talking about?"

When Cai Yulu heard this, she knew that Teacher Yan would not tell her at all, what was the truth of the matter? She stood up helplessly and said goodbye: Okay, since Teacher Yan doesn't want to tell me, we won't disturb your peaceful life anymore!

As she spoke, she Cai Yulu turned around and ran to the kitchen of the Hou family. Behind him, Yan Ruyu's distressed cry came: His sister-in-law, it's noon. You just stay and have lunch before you leave!

However, Cai Yulu just glanced back at Teacher Yan and dropped a sentence: Teacher Yan, you don't tell me the truth of the matter. There are always other people who know! As he spoke, he ran to the haystack and quickly unlocked the car, and rode off the front of the bike without looking back.

Looking at Cai Yulu's back of "absolutely gone", Yan Ruyu secretly pondered the words "other people", and she suddenly exclaimed: Oh, Cai Yulu should be talking about Hao Yan!
