CHAPTER XXIX

29

Lu Yantang's father used to be Shen Zhongqi's subordinate, it can be said that Shen Zhongqi watched Lu Yantang grow up, and when Lu Yantang was sixteen years old, the family moved to Shanghai and broke off contact. Later, Lu Yantang graduated from university, and was assigned to work as a propaganda officer in the headquarters of the military region.

At that time, she was wearing pine branch green, short hair that reached her ears, she had no stage fright, and called Shen Zhongqi uncle generously. Shen Zhongqi was stunned for a moment, and was really startled when he looked at the young lieutenant in front of him.

After inquiring carefully, I learned that this girl was assigned to Beijing to work alone, and her parents still stayed in Shanghai.

Since then, Shen Zhongqi has always paid more attention to Lu Yantang in the friendship of his old subordinates. And Lu Yantang likes Shen Siliang, which is a well-known thing.

It's just that Shen Siliang had Huo Hui by his side at that time, and his mind was not on her at all.

Later, Huo Hui left, Shen Zhongqi intended to match the two together, but unfortunately, Lu Yantang went to Nanjing for further study and went to the Command College to study staff business, and this time she came back, she has changed from a young lieutenant to a capable major.

Seeing Huo Hui, Lu Yantang was taken aback, and Huo Hui was also taken aback, but the former quickly calmed down and smiled at her kindly, not at all.

"You're here to see Si Liang, right? He's in there, it's hot, I'll go change the basin of water, you sit first. ”

Listen, this is said as if she is the mistress of this house, in charge of the place.

Shen Siliang ran out with his slippers on his shoulder, staring at her with dark eyes, and smiled with surprise: "Why are you here?" ”

He was happy to ask, but when he heard Huo Hui's ears, it was as if he had mixed up his good deeds. She was heartbroken, and looked at him without emotion: "I heard that you were injured, come and see you." I'll leave if nothing happens. ”

Who is this tantrum with?

Lu Yantang noticed the subtle atmosphere between the two and smiled pleasantly: "You speak first, I'll go to the water room." ”

Shen Siliang took advantage of the situation to hug Huo Hui's waist and put it in his arms: "No need, give her the work and let her do it." I'm sorry to bother you for an afternoon, so go back. ”

Xu Shanyu didn't lie to Huo Hui, he was indeed seriously injured, his entire left arm was holding gauze and a fixed plate, Shen Siliang wanted to take the small basin in Lu Yantang's hand, but he didn't have a hand, so he pinched Huo Hui's waist lightly and reminded her: "Take it, let the old man hold it." ”

Huo Hui pursed his lips and took it in silence.

Lu Yantang knew what Shen Siliang meant, and he didn't let him go, so he simply handed the basin to Huo Hui: "Okay, then you chat, I'll go back first." ”

She went back to the house, picked up the hat on the table, put it on her head, and smiled meaningfully at him: "I'll come to see you in a few days." ”

After speaking, she turned around and twisted her slender waist and left, without taking two steps, and turned back to salute Shen Siliang, quite solemn: "Get well soon." ”

Shen Siliang snorted slightly, not very comfortable: "I won't give you a return gift for my virtue, I received my heart." ”

When Lu Yantang walked away, Shen Siliang saw that there was no one in the corridor, slipped into the ward for Huo Huiti with one hand, kicked the door, put the person against the wall, and asked her in a low voice: "Why are you here?" ”

"I called you."

Huo Hui lowered his eyes: "My mobile phone was confiscated by Xu Huaimeng."

Shen Siliang kissed her hand, he really missed her: "I know, I called twice, the first time it was turned off, and the second time it was picked up by him, and he told me that you live in his house these days, which makes me worry." If you confiscate it, confiscate it, and I'll buy it for you when you go back, and you can use it secretly. ”

In fact, what is worried, he just wants to see her, but people's fathers have said so, that is, they are clearly suing her, our daughter doesn't know that you are lying in the hospital injured, and you also sue her to provoke her.

Huo Hui was still holding the basin with his two hands, so he pushed him with his elbow and didn't let him get close: "Get up, hold the water." ”

Shen Siliang picked up the basin with his right hand and put it aside, knowing that she was angry with Lu Yantang, and coaxed her: "She went to the general office in the morning, and happened to meet my father, my father told her that I was lying in the nest, and she had to come over to see everything as soon as she heard about it, I promise that nothing happened, if you don't come, I am worried about how to send her away." ”

Lu Yantang likes Shen Siliang, and the people around her know that she went to Nanjing for him to study, and she wants to be worthy of him, even if Shen Siliang had told her very clearly at that time, people also smiled generously, you talk about yours, I chase mine, besides, I went to Nanjing to study not all for you, I can't give up an opportunity to make myself progress, right?

Lu Yantang is a hearty person, never does the trick behind him, likes is like, and he likes it openly, such a woman, which man doesn't appreciate or admire, but if you want to talk about relationships, it's just such a relationship, at most it is a man's attitude towards women, not hateful, but not close.

Huo Hui also knew Lu Yantang's character, but he couldn't get over that hurdle in his heart, no one knew how torturous this hurdle was, so she put it in her heart and embarrassed herself.

She turned her head, and the depression, nervousness, and worry that had accumulated over the past few days finally broke out, and her eyes were red, but the tears just didn't fall.

"Shen Siliang, I don't have to be you."

"You annoy me, you hate me, I still stick it up with a cheeky skin, it was You Meng before, and now it is Lu Yantang, do you know what I feel like now?"

"A capital Tian is shameless."

In the past, she always felt that there was no one around him, so she could try to get close to him, anyway, she was just this cheeky and let go, but when he appeared in the auditorium of the compound with You Meng, she sighed in her heart, that girl was so young, only twenty years old, in her eyes, Huo Hui could see that she was as infatuated and adored with him as she was at the beginning.

She never sued him, nor did she sue anyone, in fact, later, You Meng once came to her.

Just downstairs in her newspaper office, she was wearing a white skirt, carrying a bag, and looking at her pitifully with a pair of big eyes: "Sister Huo Hui, I know that you and Shen Siliang have a bad relationship, but I really like him, can you give him to me?" ”

"He doesn't answer my calls, I can't find him, but I know you'll be with him these days."

That was the first time Huo Hui was at a loss, the two of them sat in the corner of the newspaper office, Huo Hui sat on the ground, and only after a while did he take a cigarette and say: "Then what should I do, I like him very much." ”

You can let anything, but love and love can't be shared with others.

You Meng was unwilling: "You are no longer suitable for him, I am younger and more competitive than you." ”

But you don't know, when I met him, he was younger than you. He is love for you, an indispensable part of life, but for me, he is the only hope for her to survive in the years of her life day after day.

Of course, Huo Hui didn't say this to You Meng.

It wasn't until I saw Lu Yantang just now, she was wearing a heroic military uniform, and she could talk to him about a topic she didn't understand, and the two of them looked so compatible, Huo Hui really retreated.

She said to Shen Siliang very solemnly: "I used to be four or five years old, I lived with my mother in that kind of old courtyard, maybe you call it a courtyard here, that is, many people are in an alley, children can play together every night, very lively, at that time I just moved there with my mother, I was young, ignorant, love to join in the fun, so I took toys out to play with them, they didn't take me, and splashed me with water, and turned around and said that I was a wild child without a father." ”

"At that time, I didn't know what a wild child was, and I went home and told my mother, who hugged me for a long time and didn't speak, and since then, the door of my yard has been closed since she came back from work, and I have never gone out again."

Huo Hui smiled and said lightly: "Later, when I grew up, I found that my mother always looked at the photo when no one was around, and the photo was old, she was wearing a shirt, following behind a man, holding a book in her hand, looking at it, and crying." ”

"I was naΓ―ve enough to think that my dad was really dead, and it wasn't until Xu Huaimeng brought me back that I understood what they really meant by wild children."

"So Shen Siliang, I really don't want to repeat my mother's path again."

Huo Hui told him the truth from the bottom of his heart: "I know that she is a good woman, but I can't erase the fact that she has really hurt other people's families, every time Xu Shanyu sees my virtue, I can understand him very well, this matter is for me, I am not balanced, I may do more than him, Shen Siliang, I like you, but I also have principles." ”

Try your best, never force. She wanted to go.

As soon as she heard this, Shen Siliang understood what she meant, and obviously explained it to her, but she just didn't trust herself.

In the summer, the ward was stuffy, and people were irritable, Shen Siliang was patient: "My affair with You Meng has long passed, and I was with her at the beginning." ”

"It's because I think she's a bit like you."

Shen Siliang confessed frankly.

He and she met at a year-end debriefing performance, and there were many people who went that day, including the responsible persons of various departments of the military region, the organizers, and many leading leaders with names and surnames. Originally, Shen Siliang could or may not participate in the performance, but who would have thought that Liu Weijiang, who was invited that day, temporarily presided over a meeting and gave him the invitation.

He didn't like to watch these singing and dancing performances very much, so he thought about finding a place in the back and slipped out halfway, but he didn't expect that as soon as he entered, most of them were uncles and uncles who had a good relationship with his father and had dealings at work.

The highlight of the performance is a dance rehearsed by the Academy of Arts, called Chuan Song, which tells the story of the Sichuan Army's heroic killing of the enemy and bloody battles.

In the end, there was a link where the leaders of the first row needed to go up and shake hands with the actors one by one, salute and condole, Liu Weijiang did not arrive, and everyone encouraged Shen Siliang to go up.

Shen Siliang excused himself, don't, our level is low, let's just have a fun time today, there are many powerful people sitting below, and they won't be in the limelight.

Someone said, Si Liang, the little girl in the stand, staring at you with straight eyes, let's be a gentleman and go up to salute others.

was encouraged by everyone like this, Shen Siliang was pushed to the stage as if he was chasing ducks to the shelves.

first brought a wreath to the girl, and then shook hands with others, and the applause at the bottom kept coaxing, not letting Shen Siliang come down, and finally took a group photo together and saluted each other before it was over.

Before leaving, Wu Yangyang and his group walked to the parking lot, and Shen Siliang had just come down the steps in a cotton coat when he heard the crisp voice of a group of little girls calling him behind him.

"Chief! Heads! ”

Shen Siliang turned around: "Call me?" ”

"That's right! It's you! A bold female classmate echoed and walked forward with a plain-faced girl: "Our girl admires you very much, can the chief leave a phone number?" ”

Shen Siliang smiled softly: "We're not the chief, I'm just a driver, and I'm here to make up the numbers for the leader today." ”

People don't give up: "Whether you are or not, anyway, you are higher than us, and those who are of higher rank are the chiefs!" ”

Four or five girls formed a circle around him, not letting him go, quite eye-catching on the steps, some people came to whistle when they saw the excitement, Shen Da girl, you can do it! Can you develop a revolutionary/life-changing friendship for a while?

Shen Siliang had a special girl relationship when he was a child, and the little friends who grew up together looked red, and specially nicknamed him, called Shen Da Girl, when he heard it, he was mixed up among the women.

People want mobile phone numbers, Shen Siliang has been mixed up for so many years, and the thoughts of these girls can be seen through at a glance, and he refuses them painlessly, this involves confidentiality, and it can't be given casually.

Those who can look at the eyes know that he is taking care of their face and giving them a graceful step.

After saying that, he smiled, turned around and got into the car, the girl who was pushed to the front did not give up, and chased a few steps in a row, there were just a few snows in Beijing in those days, and the ground slidied, and the girl staggered, grabbed Shen Siliang and asked timidly: "Are you...... Don't know me anymore? ”

Shen Siliang frowned and thought about it.

"I'm the actor who saluted you on stage just now!"

The makeup on the stage is painted in one appearance, who can know whom, this time the makeup was removed, and after a closer look, Shen Siliang was really impressed, the little girl looked good, white and clean, especially those eyes, when she was embarrassed to laugh, she looked like a person.

Shen Si nodded brightly and remembered.

The girl said, "My name is You Meng, I am a student of military arts, can you leave me a call, I really admire you." ”

Shen Siliang was happy: "What do you worship me?" ”

She held back for a long time, her face was frozen red, and she didn't say a word. That stubbornness is really embarrassing. On a cold day, the girls all chased after this, and it would be too ungraceful not to give it, and after leaving each other's phone calls, Shen Siliang drove away.

Since then, the two have met occasionally, had a meal, he also generously bought what she wanted, and after a long time of contact, Shen Siliang found that this girl was not the same as he thought, where was different, ambitious, and too good at playing tricks.

Some words are not straightforward, always using routines with him around the bush, Shen Siliang is a human spirit among human spirits, what does she mean can't be heard? After two or three months of dating, I understood her true intentions.

She didn't need to assign exams after graduation, so she directly asked him to help stay in the song and dance troupe here in Beijing. The reason why I chased him out of the performance venue that day was because I heard the teacher of the dance troupe chatting in private, and I knew that his identity was not simple.

Shen Siliang deliberately hung her, You Meng couldn't stand it, and came to him crying, talking for a long time, meaning that he didn't want to leave him.

Shen Siliang, a scumbag, is a scumbag who never lies, he has always been honest, no matter what he does, he is honest. I've done this, I've done this, what can you do with me? But he is hated and hated, because he values affection and treats others righteously.

He knew that she was in trouble, her father had a leg broken in the factory, and her mother couldn't make a lot of money dyeing cloth in the handicraft workshop, so she had a heavy burden on her shoulders and wanted to find a good way out to settle down here.

He had already found someone to find a good hospital for her father, received a prosthetic leg, and said hello to the teacher in charge of the assignment at the school at a dinner.

In fact, You Meng himself also knows in his heart that he is really back, who wants a fake, such a man, you are obsessed with him and nostalgic, but in the final analysis, it is not yours, not to mention that there is nothing between the two, there is no holding hands and kissing in the real sense.

He did this, and the two of them talked about it, and he sent himself back to school, You Meng said, is it that the two of us will never see each other again? Shen Siliang smiled and told her to be careful on the road, and then the car went away, and finally became a small red dot in sight.

……

As for Lu Yantang-

Shen Siliangyun said lightly: "If I really have something to do with her, it won't be your turn to come back." ”

This sentence can be regarded as a complete poke at Huo Hui's heart.
