Chapter 162: A Visit from Wu University
Wu Da and Bai Yuzhu returned to the village, and when they visited Mrs. Wu's house, Wu Duo's mother had already gone back sullenly. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info She wants to go back and think about Wuduo's marriage, at least after discussing it with her husband and son, and then decide whether to consider introducing Wuduo to her family.
Wuda hadn't returned for a long time, and when he came back, he was shocked by the great changes in the village. Although it is still the original samurai village, it is almost impossible to find its own door. He lingered at the door for a long time before deciding to enter the door to visit, until he saw Mrs. Wu go out to greet the guests, and he realized that this was really his former home.
The dirt slope, which used to be muddy and dusty, was now paved with stones, and a grinding disc was installed next to the old well in the open space in front of the door, and several stone benches and stone tables were added to the original stone benches. The original red brick floor in the courtyard should also be made of stone, and the ear houses on both sides have been demolished, and the whole yard is cleaner and brighter. The holly trees, which are still lush in winter, and the pink plum trees on the wall, make the whole yard look full of life.
Although the original main room does not look much different from the outside, the layout and arrangement on the inside are very different. The floor is a log floor, the walls are deliberately uneven, and all kinds of household items look antique. The temperature in the room was just right, so I took off my coat and sat down when I entered the room, feeling warm and comfortable.
Until this moment, knowing that Wu Da had sat down in his former home and drank the tea made by Mrs. Wu, he still couldn't believe that this was once his home. Although it was as warm and comfortable as before, it felt more surprising and unfamiliar. Is this really my former home? Is this a place where I can live with her? The place he once cherished the most was no longer his own.
"The house is really neat and comfortable, where is this a small dilapidated house in the countryside, is this obviously a big villa in seclusion." When Wu Da was silently surprised and thinking about something, Bai Yuzhu happened to be chatting with Mrs. Wu.
"By the way, I came in a hurry, and I didn't bring any gifts, these mountain city specialties were originally what I was going to bring back to my hometown, give them to you, don't dislike them." Bai Yuzhu piled some of the gifts in his backpack on the table and smiled politely.
"No, don't be so polite, you can take it back, we have all of these." Mrs. Wu said with a smile.
"They all said that you should not be disgusted, are you still disgusted?" Bai Yuzhu looked unhappy, pretended to be angry, and asked Mrs. Wu to accept the things.
"Okay, let's take it. Thank you for your heart. Xu Ming said in a round game.
Although the four of them have no grievances and hatreds in the strict sense, the atmosphere of the four of them sitting in the same room like this is always a little awkward. If it weren't for the fact that Xu Ming and Bai Yuzhu were both masters who loved to chat and warm up, I was afraid that the room would be frozen at this time.
"Ms. Bai, where is it?" Xu Ming is not a gossip person, he doesn't want to know the ins and outs of Wuda and this woman, and he can only talk about polite words at this time.
"Well, I'm going to open my own shop, a small hotel, and I'm going to eat with a mouthful, and I can't close the business of Boss Xu and his wife." Bai Yuzhu said with a smile. "Well, I have opened two small shops in the mountain city now, both of which are near the university town, one in the north and one in the south, and the business is okay. Little people, they don't have any big ambitions, it's enough to be well fed and clothed. Wuhan University can also do things in a down-to-earth manner, and since we have him, our business is much better than before. ”
"Actually, in fact, with the relationship between a few of us, it's really embarrassing for us to visit." Bai Yuzhu glanced at Mrs. Wu when she said this, and Mrs. Wu also looked at her in surprise. The woman's straightforwardness and frankness were very unexpected.
"However, I think that since you have come here, you have also opened your mouth to invite, come and have a look, and also satisfy my gossip curiosity, and also, also make a break with everyone's past, although you may not be able to be friends in the future, but don't have knots in your heart. People all have times when they make mistakes, and they all have the opportunity and power to start over, right? Bai Yuzhu's words not only made Mrs. Wu feel a lot more comfortable, but also made Xu Ming smile even more happily.
Xu Ming laughed and said, "Well, Boss Bai is a transparent and happy person. "You don't have to beat around the bush to talk to people like this, everyone is comfortable.
"No, I'm also a guilty person, and I'm also a poor person, but now, I'm also a lucky person, if I don't meet Wuda, I can be regarded as starting a new life. I, this man, am alive a little now, happy! Under the premise of not affecting others and not affecting social harmony, live the life you want to live happily. ”
Bai Yuzhu said alone, and Mrs. Wu poured tea and water for her from time to time. I've never seen it before, but I really feel like it's not a stranger. Probably, this one is also a good person with a story.
"Alas, I won't talk to you about the bad things in the past, this is a big New Year, and it will affect everyone's good mood. In short, no matter what, I want everyone to get along well in the future. Although you are a big boss, there must be times when you need people, and we will definitely help if there are any small things we can help. What about us, little people, it's nothing big and try not to bother you. After Bai Yuzhu said this, she laughed to herself. Really, my skin is really getting thicker, and I can say anything.
She hid her smile, paused for a while, and continued, "Although you didn't know me before, I am very familiar with you, Wuda doesn't know how many times you have told me, Wuda has felt guilty and tried to repay it, but, in the end, everyone is still fated." In the end, God sent him to me, and we were able to talk, and we were together. No, I just got my certificate last winter, and I originally wanted to come to the grave of the old man to worship him, but some things were delayed. Drag it out until now to come. ”
"In the future, there will be a lot of people who will come to worship during the New Year's Festival, and when the time comes, it will be necessary to trouble the two of them to ask for water." Bai Yuzhu was neither humble nor arrogant when she spoke, and she talked eloquently by herself, which gradually warmed up the originally embarrassing atmosphere.
"I'm sorry for your trouble." Wu Da said.
"No trouble, no trouble." Xu Ming said with a smile. Originally, the burden of this lively atmosphere was on him, and he still had a lot of pressure. Now, seeing this Bai Yuzhu talking about herself is very happy, and she is also relaxed, listening to her say something that she has and has not.
Bai Yuzhu is indeed a person with a story, she was originally a female cadre, but she was imprisoned for several years because of corruption and bribery, and only after she was released from prison did she find that her husband, children and family had moved abroad. They didn't even want to talk to themselves on the phone. There are also friends who used to be in control of power, and they all regard her as a virus. Hide as far as you can when you see it, and there are cynical ones, pointing at Sang and scolding Huai. When she was about to commit suicide by throwing herself into the lake, she found that the lake was too shallow, and the water was no deeper than her waist. She didn't die in the lake, but she broke her foot, and a passing cleaner pulled her ashore and gave her money to eat.
She cried all night with the fifteen dollars the cleaner had given. On the second day, he got on the train away from home with swollen eyes, came to the mountain town, and started his life again. When she met Wuhan University, it was the time when she most wanted to find a partner and start a new life.
"The name Bai Yuzhu was changed after coming to the mountain city." Bai Yuzhu smiled and said, "Change your name, and change your day." Either way, just as we cherish every day of our freedom, I hope you will too. Bai Yuzhu said with emotion.
Although Mrs. Wu and Xu Ming didn't know why Bai Yuzhu was so emotional, they felt her unique temperament. No matter what this woman was before, now, she is a frank woman who deserves the love and respect of others. It doesn't matter how the past has made her what she is now.
originally wanted to leave the two of them for dinner, but because of Bai Yuzhu's resolute refusal, Mrs. Wu and Xu Ming didn't keep too much. As long as there is another person who is not willing to serve these two people to eat, Wang's mother knows that Wuda is coming, and she has long been hated to hide in the bedroom with her precious niece and close the door tightly.
That person, she didn't even want to look at it anymore, she saw disgust. If the two of them were thick enough to stay and eat, maybe she'd jumped out of the bedroom and chased them away. Fortunately, the two were quite self-aware and left.
After Wu Da and Bai Yuzhu left, Mrs. Wu and Xu Ming were bombarded by Wang's mother.
"Oh, what kind of people, what are they doing at home, that kind of person, I thought I didn't know where I died in the corner!"
"In the future, don't invite home again, that kind of person, don't come and go, don't say you see, I'm upset when I hear what I say."
"Throw these things, throw them out, throw them all out!"
Wang's mother just can't forgive Wuda, she can understand Wuduo, but she just can't understand Wuda, a man who turns his back on his wife and children and his family, will never be a good man. Never to be forgiven. Such a person, in law, should be sentenced to death!
"You say, this Bai Yuzhu is good at talking and full of confidence, what did he do before?" Mrs. Wu asked Xu Ming curiously.
"Why didn't you ask her just now, I think as long as you ask, she will definitely talk eloquently and know everything." Xu Ming laughed. But few people can arouse Mrs. Wu's curiosity.
"Alas, the first time I saw it, I was always embarrassed to ask so bluntly." Mrs. Wu smiled and said, "I see, are you also very interested in her, and you have been smiling and staring at others." ”
"But no, before, I couldn't understand why so many of my friends around me were looking for wives and ugly people, you know, I was also from the Appearance Association. But when I saw this woman, I knew it. Although this person is ugly, he is very temperamental, and he is also interesting to talk about, and life with such a person will definitely not be boring. Moreover, this person is so frank that he doesn't have to bother to find out, and his life is easier. Xu Ming said with a smile.
"Hey, don't you have a crush on that woman, do you? Praise her so much? Am I not interesting enough, not honest enough? Mrs. Wu said sourly, and by the way, she twisted Xu Ming's arm fiercely. Since the two met, I haven't seen him praise other women like this. Even Lin Yue, he didn't say anything good.
"Isn't it!" Xu Ming said deliberately, I haven't seen her jealous for a long time. Who says tsundere women don't get jealous? Eating jealousy is still overwhelming!
"Okay, you go to her, I'll eat my mother's cooking, you can be light!" Mrs. Wu said angrily.
"No, didn't you say that Mother Wang will be called Mother Xu in the future, it's my mother, I eat my mother's cooking, you can be light!" Xu Ming said defiantly.
"You!"
The two of them were arguing and fighting, but Wang's mother, who was listening on the side, laughed: "Stupid, stupid!" ”
Mrs. Wu and Xu Ming sighed when they saw Wang's mother there, and asked why in unison. Mother Wang said seriously: "Look, the two of you are going to quarrel with each other, not stupid." I said, don't let them come, and you won't listen. Now that I know, the man didn't have a good heart when he came. Do you know what ginger is old and spicy? In the future, I'll have to listen to your mother. ”
Mrs. Wu and Xu Ming looked at each other with each other, realizing that the mana of the two to divert Wang's mother's attention was not deep enough, not only did they not let Wang's mother get rid of the complaints, but they complained even more, so they had to shut up. Eat obediently.
"I know, your tricks don't work against our mother!" Xu Ming whispered to Mrs. Wu.
Mrs. Wu's foot under the table kicked Xu Ming hard, originally, seeing that Wang's mother was nagging endlessly, she wanted to sing a double reed with Xu Ming to divert the attention of the old man, so that she could concentrate on persuasion. Unexpectedly, the two of them quarreled on the wrong topic. This time, Wang's mother not only did not persuade her, but also laughed at the two of them.
"In short, your mother has lived a lot of age, and she is the most accurate to see people, at the beginning, I just said anything, that guy from Wuda is unreliable, I won't let you fight. It's that your father's old bone has to talk about friendship and morality, and he has to let you marry, you see, what did he marry? Not to mention the waste of so many years of good youth, forget it. If you listened to me, you would have found someone as rich as Xu Ming in the first place, how good it would be! Wang's mother sang the old yellow calendar, but she couldn't stop the car.
"At that time, I also blamed your mother for not insisting, I was stupid at that time, and I had never seen the world. Just think about it, no rich people are mercenary, and they are not good things, and all means are used. If it weren't for you, I was afraid that you would be wronged, and the son of the old director of the county family planning office would still be able to cheapen her Erhua? People originally took a fancy to you, came to tell you the matchmaker, and let your father push it. Alas, it's a pity, you look at people's second flowers, people ....."
When Mrs. Wu heard this, she immediately put down the dishes and chopsticks in her hand, and muttered, "Oops, it seems that Xue'er's surname, Xu Ming, the child is awake, let's go and take a look, I can't coax it alone, my shoulder hurts recently, you go and rub it for me." ”
"Okay, let's go, right away!" As if he had received amnesty, Xu Ming immediately put down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand and stood up, and walked towards the room with Mrs. Wu.
Wang's mother's nagging skills, Xu Ming also has a great understanding. This time, I learned a lesson, and I resolutely stopped nagging in front of my mother in the future. The two of them entered the bedroom with their front and back feet, looked at the baby who was still asleep, breathed a long sigh of relief, and secretly hugged each other and smiled.
Wang's mother's voice came from the crack in the door: "Are you full?" Just eat a little bit? Alas, every time I tell you to eat more, eat more, you just don't listen, don't you listen to the old sayings, don't you listen to the old man's words and suffer in front of you, you, listen to me, you ......."
Mrs. Wu didn't know how long Mother Wang's mother was nagging outside the door, because she fell asleep beautifully in her mother's beautiful nagging......
