Chapter 49: Threesome
Lu Tao really bought the table tennis table back and put it in the courtyard of the community. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Since Lu Tao installed the table tennis table, Liu Jia has brought Kaikai to play almost every day, and Lu Tao has to accompany him almost every time. I also played with Liu Jia's mother and son, but I have always been at the level of frequently picking up balls, so I soon became the sparring partner of Yangyang and Kaikai, and Lu Tao and Liu Jia, who also had good ball skills, became a fixed group of players.
Lu Tao's table tennis skills are at a high level, and when he was a student, he participated in the provincial table tennis tournament and won the ranking. In fact, Lu Tao is a sports genius, in addition to playing table tennis, he is also very good at sprinting, and he has also won awards in provincial competitions. Until now, no one has been able to break the 100-meter record he set at his alma mater in junior high school.
It's just that my mother-in-law ignored her son's strengths and didn't let Lu Tao enter the sports school, but let him become a soldier. However, at that time, Lu Tao himself was willing to join the army, and he said that it was his childhood dream to wear a military uniform and become a soldier. But as a result, he was not admitted to the military academy in the army, returned to the local area without a stable job, and was unemployed several times. If he had gone to a private school, and now he is a physical education teacher who receives a national salary, if he becomes a professional athlete and develops well, it is possible to become a national champion or even an Olympic champion. My mother-in-law may not have realized her mistakes in raising her son until now, but as a bystander, I must learn from her lessons, find out Yangyang's interests and specialties as soon as possible, teach him according to his aptitude, and let him do what he likes and is best at in the future, and only in this way can he make achievements.
Within a few days, I found that the table tennis table that Lu Tao bought not only benefited Liu Jia's mother and son, but also made a public welfare for the whole community.
One day, when I passed by Guo Mei's cake shop, she pulled me in, and then she looked out left and right, and when she saw that there was no situation nearby, she closed the door and took me into the operation room.
Seeing her mysterious appearance, I asked, "What's the secret?"
Even though she and I were in the room, she spoke in a very small voice, as if she was afraid of being eavesdropped. She asked me, "What's the matter with that female classmate of yours, who runs to our neighborhood every day?"
I listened, smiled and said, "It's nothing, she brought her son here to play table tennis." ”
"But I don't usually see her son playing, but I often see her playing with your family Lu Tao. The kind-hearted Guo Mei reminded me.
"Lu Tao plays table tennis well, so I play with her when I have time. "I still look like I don't care.
"Have time? The two of them are simply playing together every day, and the whole community is watching, can a widow be with other people's men all day without making people suspicious?" Guo Mei said to me as if she was anxious for me.
"I don't see anything abnormal? What is it about my husband and my classmates playing table tennis? Not to mention that the two of them are still colleagues. I still pretended to be calm.
"Do you believe it when you catch an adulterer in bed?" Guo Mei began to say to me, the elm head.
"You're right, I don't believe anything but catching the rape in bed. I said.
Seeing my bland reaction, Guo Mei was a little puzzled by me, and said, "You really don't care about your husband engaging with others?"
"It's not that I don't care, it's that there's no evidence, and I like to speak with evidence. I said.
"What kind of evidence is not evidence, you should be the police to solve the case? This kind of thing has to be intuitive, and if you see something abnormal on the surface, you have to pay attention!" Guo Mei pushed me and said.
"Sister Mei, for me as a person, if I don't see it, it means nothing, I don't suspect it, I don't investigate, as long as my husband takes 80% of the money home every month, and 80% of the time is enough to go home to live. "I told Guo Mei about my 0.8 view of marriage.
"Then you don't care about the remaining 20 percent?" Guo Mei asked puzzled.
"Yes, in the face of a big living person, you can't control him 100%, in fact, no one has the right to control anyone, everything should be voluntary, I don't ask for love, I don't take it, I just wait in the same place. I continued to say to Guo Mei.
"I don't understand your reasoning, but since you don't care, I don't need to talk too much. Guo Mei looked disappointed at me.
"No, Sister Mei, I know that you are for my good, you are my true friend, I am very grateful to you, but I am such a person, would you like to see me arguing or fighting with Lu Tao or Liu Jia?
"Oh, I really admire you, you are so patient, I can't stand it, I really can't stand it, if my husband with others, I will die with them!" When Guo Mei said this, she also raised her fist, very scrappy.
"Then who will take care of the stars after you and them die together?" I asked Guo Mei rhetorically.
"Stars? What can you do so much? When something like that happens, it makes people dizzy. When it comes to the stars, although Guo Mei insists on her own point of view, the fierce appearance just now has disappeared, and her eyes are erratic.
Seeing that Guo Mei began to rethink, I then said to her: "We are already mothers, and some things cannot be handled so simply, we have to take care of our children." ”
"Yes, you have a point. Guo Mei finally nodded.
It's not that I'm indifferent to Lu Tao and Liu Jia's relationship, but now that the relationship between the two of them is still under observation, I will talk to them when necessary, but there should be no violence, despair will only make me calmer, not angry. If there is anger, hope has not been lost. However, thinking about it again, these may be pure concerns, what is between Lu Tao and Liu Jia? Isn't it okay to play table tennis?
After being observed by Lu Tao for a while, there was really a new trend, and he wanted to take me and Yangyang to climb the mountain and have a picnic! It is worth noting that he suggested that I invite Liu Jia's mother and son to go with him.
"Why don't you just give her a call? I said to Lu Tao.
"Oh, you still call her, you are classmates!" Lu Tao was anxious.
"You're still colleagues. "I deliberately teased Lu Tao, it was fun to see him in a hurry.
"It's better for you to fight, I'm not suitable. Lu Tao handed me the phone directly.
In the end, I called Liu Jia, and I did this, first, because I was curious and wanted to find out Lu Tao's true meaning, and secondly, I still had trust in Lu Tao or Liu Jia, after all, one was my husband and the other was my best friend.
In addition to a large Buddha Mountain in Taigu County, there is also a Phoenix Mountain near the city. There is no temple on Phoenix Mountain, but there are two towers, which belong to the wild mountains that have not been developed.
As soon as Yang Yang heard that he was going to climb the mountain and have a picnic, he was interested again, and he didn't need to call himself to get up on the day of departure, and after breakfast he put two toys in his small schoolbag, and sat on the sofa early to wait for the departure.
Lu Tao carried a large bag of instant noodles, ham, braised eggs, pickles, and beer like a long journey, and after I reminded him, he brought a small aluminum pot, a few boxes of matches, and a large bucket of water. How do you cook without a pot?
In fact, like Yangyang, I was excited when I heard that I was going to climb the mountain, but I didn't show it on the surface. I'm a person who especially likes to go out and play, and I'd rather travel every day if I can.
Our family of three and Liu Jia's mother and son rode to the bottom of the mountain, then threw the bicycle into the farmland at the foot of the mountain, and began to hike the mountain. Phoenix Mountain is a little higher than Big Buddha Mountain, but the road up the mountain is easier than the road to Big Buddha Mountain, although it is also a naturally formed mountain road, but there are fewer gravel and thorns on the road.
We climbed all the way to the bottom of the twin towers at the top of the mountain, and because we were carrying two kindergarten children, we walked slowly, and it was already noon when we reached the top of the mountain. Lu Tao found a leeward place, set up a small stove with three stones, and everyone worked together to pick up some firewood, and then we started to make a fire to cook.
"It won't cause a fire, right?" I asked Lu Tao, the team leader, worriedly.
"There aren't even trees growing here, where did the fire start?" Lu Tao said, pointing to the bare hillside.
At this time, Liu Jia, who was cooking noodles, spoke: "There are no trees, but there is grass?"
"Alright, you two don't worry, it's going to be fine. Lu Tao waved his hand and said. It seems that my opinion and Liu Jia's opinion are purely women's opinions, and there is no need to pay much attention.
Since the team leader thinks that there is no danger, let's have a bold picnic. A picnic is just a pot of instant noodles, but the team members are very happy to eat it, as if it feels better than the ramen noodles at home.
Yang Yang, who has been tossing endlessly, sweated on his forehead after a while, and he took off his coat himself when I didn't pay attention, and after I saw it, I quickly picked up the coat and put it on for him, but he just didn't want to wear it, saying it was too hot.
"Hurry up and put it on!!!
"It's okay, let him go, it's not cold today, and children just like to toss, and he will feel hot and tired and uncomfortable if he wears too much. Lu Tao and Liu Jia said this to me almost in unison.
Because it was 1 to 2, I lost, listened to the opinions of both of them, and didn't put on a coat for Yang Yang again.
But at this time, Kai Kai used a thin wooden stick to stir the remaining firewood, and suddenly a red-hot wooden stick was pulled out by him for a long distance, and immediately led a piece of hay, Liu Jia and I reacted to screaming, Lu Tao saw this and rushed up with an arrow step, and trampled the fire out with his foot. Then he came back and buried the spark under the stove with earth.
"Look, it's dangerous, and it says it can't cause a fire. I said in amazement.
"Isn't this extinguished? what's there?" Lu Tao said disapprovingly.
"It's better to be careful. "Liu Jia always speaks softer than me.
We didn't start going down until about four o'clock in the afternoon. Because Lu Tao was thirsty for a lot of beer, during the descent from the mountain, Lu Tao seemed extremely excited, and along the way he was telling us some interesting stories when he served in the army, I have heard these stories countless times, but Liu Jia is probably the first time to listen to it, and she is fascinated by it. If I were to summarize Lu Tao's classic military story, it would be a series of stealing stories: for example, one day, he and a comrade-in-arms stole another comrade-in-arms' moisturizer and smeared it on their faces, only to find out afterwards that it was shampoo! Again, a comrade-in-arms brought a bag of peanuts from home, hidden under the bed, Lu Tao and his partner dozens of times, stealing all the bags of peanuts, and later in the process of the comrade-in-arms who lost the peanuts crying, the squad leader asked the whole squad to stand in a row, one by one, to ask again, but did not find the "criminal", the final solution is to take a heavy kick from the squad leader on each person's buttocks. There are also stealing shoes, stealing army coats, stealing steamed buns in the canteen, and so on.
"Is that really the case?" Liu Jia was obviously unable to associate the radiant image of a military man with a thief.
"I was like that in the army, the whole army was almost all thieves, and I was too poor at that time. Lu Tao said to Liu Jia.
Because I have questioned too many times, and now I fully believe that what Lu Tao said is true, so I just concentrate on taking care of the two children, and I don't listen to Lu Tao's story. (To be continued.) )
