Chapter 116: Sad Past

Chen Lanlan had already gotten up at this time, and after a brief wash, she lay on the bed in the dormitory and read the local English magazine. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

She didn't sleep well last night, and because she was in a poor mental state, she didn't have the appetite to eat. In fact, she has not gone out for breakfast since the school holidays. Because the school cafeteria was closed, she was too lazy to go outside the school to eat.

Now the days of vacation are a kind of torment for her. Usually during the holidays, it's just a little lonely, but now Guo Haodong makes her dream, she feels that the time of the watch is so long, she is not idle at this time, lazily humming a little song...

Now for her, time is used to wander, the body is used to love, life is used to forget, and the soul is used to sing.

Di Di Di...

A ringing of her mobile phone made her focus from the book, quickly aimed at the mobile phone lying next to the bed, put down the magazine, and quickly grabbed it. She calculates the time, now should be Guo Haodong's bedtime, doesn't he talk to him online, but blindly waste international calls?

However, when she looked at the caller ID, she knew that it was Yang Nannan's call. She suddenly realized that Yang Nannan went to visit her parents today, and she should call her back.

Whether she called, at least it can prove that she and Haodong are not sticky together at this time.

Chen Lanlan answered the phone with this mentality-

"Hey, Nan Nan, you haven't slept yet?" She first deliberately asked the question.

Yang Nannan didn't want to explain the actual situation between her and her husband to others at this time, so she lied: "Brother Haodong is watching TV outside." I took the opportunity to hide in my bedroom and whisper something to you. ”

Chen Lanlan frowned, and said secretly in her heart, we are not best friends, what 'whispering' can you talk to me? ?

However, her eyes blinked strangely, and her mouth admitted, "Okay." I have nothing to do now, so let's talk. ”

Yang Nannan first said: "I followed my colleagues in the bureau to visit your parents in Wangkui Township today. ”

Chen Lanlan said expressionlessly: "Oh, then how do you feel?" ”

Yang Nannan said: "Their situation is really special, basically no ability to work. Your uncle doesn't even have the ability to take care of himself. Our Civil Affairs Bureau will give them certain assistance in accordance with the relevant national policies. ”

Chen Lanlan said "oh", "Thank you then." If it weren't for you, my parents would still be forgotten. ”

Yang Nannan's heart moved, and then reminded: "Sister Lanlan, you don't have to thank me. I just did my part. Besides, you also saved my brother Haodong. Even if I make something in return, I should do it. ”

Chen Lanlan's expression was gloomy and she smiled darkly, and sighed in her heart - he has become your brother Haodong.

Yang Nannan said again at this time: "Sister Lanlan, who do you guess I met when I went to your house?" ”

Chen Lanlan's heart moved, and her mind immediately turned into curiosity, knowing that the person Yang Nannan wanted to mention was Guo Haodong.

She was deliberately confused: "How do I know? The reputation of the two elders in the village is very poor, who will visit them? ”

Yang Nannan laughed and said, "Brother Haodong actually rushed to visit your parents before me." He took the difficulties you talked to him about before about the family's difficulties. Moreover, he also threw a thousand yuan at the second elder. ”

Chen Lanlan smiled bitterly: "Really? Then you can thank her instead of me. ”

"Hehe, what's there to thank you for? He is a man of gratitude. And he's going to help your parents even more. Yang Nannan immediately told Chen Lanlan all the help plans she heard from Guo Haodong.

Chen Lanlan listened, and her eyes gradually lit up. Guo Haodong had already made such a promise to her before. Since he told Nan Nan personally about such a plan, it means that he is ready to start implementing it. If that's the case, you don't have to rely on Lee Soon Hee anymore. Haodong may also take the opportunity to arrange Li Shunxi.

She thought so in her heart, but her mouth was polite to Yang Nannan: "It's great if this is the case." I want to thank Haodong from the bottom of my heart. Because I don't have to drag that classmate down anymore. ”

Yang Nannan originally wanted to talk to her about Li Shunxi, but when she heard her mention him first, she said: "Sister Lan Lan, that male classmate of yours is the best man I have ever seen." He paid silently for the love in his heart, and was willing to burn his youth. So, I hope you don't get obsessed with green cards abroad. It's better to return to China after completing your studies and build a warm family with him. ”

When Chen Lanlan heard Yang Nannan persuade herself like this, a big pimple suddenly rose in her heart.

She was silent for a while before she asked Yang Nannan loudly: "Do you say that sympathy and gratitude are love?" ”

Yang Nannan hesitated, then shook his head: "This doesn't count." Love should be a matter of mutual love between men and women. ”

At this time, Chen Lanlan showed the scene of herself and Guo Haodong sensationalizing each other on the beach, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help showing a smile of relief. She then asked, "Then is there love between you and Haodong?" ”

Yang Nannan's big eyes showed confusion. She and Brother Hao Dong have been married for almost a month, and they still haven't had a round house. And before getting married, his lover was another man. It's just that now she is attached to her brother Haodong.

She felt that she couldn't answer Chen Lanlan's question, so she couldn't help but ask: "Sister Lanlan, then what do you say is affection and love?" ”

Chen Lanlan smiled indifferently: "Actually, love is not poignant. It even has a certain amount of humor. When a man fools a woman, it is called molesting; When a woman fools a man, it is called seduction; Men and women flicker each other, which is called love. ”

Yang Nannan listened stunned, and really couldn't agree with Chen Lanlan's words. Because if love is like this, then she and Zhao Wei may be like this, but not with Brother Haodong at all.

She couldn't help but question: "Sister Lanlan, is love really like you say?" ”

As soon as Chen Lanlan heard that the other party didn't quite agree with her words, she asked rhetorically: "Nan Nan, since you doubt my words, can you tell me about your view of love?" ”

Yang Nannan's eyes were full of solemnity and said: "I think love is not a game life, it should be noble and solemn." If men and women can build a community of destiny, and for the common good, they care for each other, care for each other, and enjoy each other's happiness and happiness. This is love. And everything you just talked about seems to be the kind of 'affair @ encounter' that indulges your emotions. I didn't say well about my previous relationship with Brother Haodong. But the relationship between your classmates and you should be based on maintaining a difficult family together, and encourage each other, support each other, and recognize each other's emotions. So, don't let your feelings wander anymore, but use that male classmate as a harbor for your feelings. ”

When Chen Lanlan heard this, her face suddenly turned dead. She feels that if she understands according to Yang Nannan's words, the relationship between herself and Haodong is the kind of relationship of 'outside @ encounter', and if she doesn't choose Li Shunxi, it is equivalent to her 'derailment'. “

"Sister Lanlan, why don't you speak?" As soon as Yang Nannan heard that the microphone was silent, he asked tentatively.

Chen Lanlan felt that whatever she said to her was a kind of boredom. Besides, if she is always allowed to occupy the line, it will also affect her interaction with Haodong. So, she said lightly: "Everyone has a different understanding of love, and it is not actually a version at all. Nan Nan, it's not too early for you to be there. I also want to go out for a bite to eat. Let's leave that for now. ”

Yang Nannan actually had something important to probe her tone, so she quickly insisted: "Sister Lanlan, are you chatting with me?" If I go to bed early, I can't sleep. ”

Chen Lanlan frowned, looking bored: "What else do we have to talk about?" ”

Yang Nannan blinked her big eyes and said in a curious tone: "Sister Lanlan, as soon as I saw your parents today, I couldn't imagine that they would be the kind of family relationship you are." Can you tell me about your relationship with them? ”

Yang Nannan's words are undoubtedly asking for directions. In fact, the purpose of her call to Chen Lanlan tonight was to test whether she understood her life experience, which was also something that her mother-in-law cared about.

When Chen Lanlan heard this, she seemed to touch her pain again, and couldn't help but say gloomily: "I don't have any so-called feelings with them. For as long as I can remember, the word for my parents has been a painless title, and the only thing that really makes me feel family is my grandmother. I was pulled by her. Unfortunately, when I was in high school, she died suddenly... I didn't have time to fulfill my filial piety..."

Chen Lanlan's voice choked up.

Yang Nannan's tears also rolled out of her eyes, and she said sympathetically: "Sister Lanlan, I'm really embarrassed to touch your sad past." Still, I want to know about your upbringing. “

This may be the topic of Chen Lanlan's confiding. So she patiently told Yang Nannan about the old past-

At the beginning of Chen Lanlan's memory, she was not treated by her parents. It was almost under their fists and feet that she had her first memories of her parents. At that time, the Chen family and his wife were still in good health. However, even when they are able to work, they are lazy and lazy. Because they do not work hard to run the family, the Chen family has always been a difficult family in the local area.

Because Chen Jingyuan lives a hard life, he usually does some things like stealing chickens and touching dogs. Sometimes when she has a bad life, she blames the young Xiao Lanlan, not only beating and scolding her, but also always calling her a 'money-loser'.

Young Xiao Lanlan has felt like purgatory on earth since she was a child. However, she gradually got used to those days. Fortunately, her grandmother was still in good health at the time, and her feelings for her were good. Although Chen Jingyuan and his wife are domineering, they are still a little afraid of their mother. It was her grandmother's care for Chen Lanlan that gave her the opportunity to study.

At that time, when Chen Lanlan was studying in the village primary school and the township junior high school, it was free. At that time, because she was young and couldn't do any work, Chen Jingyuan and his wife had to spend some time in school. However, to their surprise and the people in the village, Chen Lanlan was talented and intelligent, and she studied extremely hard. Her grades have always been 'unbeatable' in school. This not only made the teachers at the school happy, but also made her blind dates in the village where her family is located look at her with admiration. Although her parents had a bad reputation in the village. But it didn't affect the villagers' appreciation of her.

However, when she was admitted to the high school in the city with excellent grades, Chen Jingyuan and his wife suffered from immortal diseases one after another. And Chen's mother, who has always been the breadwinner at home, also fell ill in bed because of her advanced age. For Chen Lanlan, these are simply a series of nightmares.

The people in the village were very sympathetic to her, and they were determined to raise funds for her to go to high school and college, regardless of her parents.

When Mr. and Mrs. Chen saw that their daughter was almost an adult, they did not want her to continue her education, even though they did not have to pay for any of their daughter's tuition and fees. They want their daughter to earn money for them.

However, the grandmother at that time insisted that her granddaughter go to high school. Although Chen Jingyuan and his wife are domineering, they can't dispute the old mother.

When Chen Lanlan left home when she was in high school, her grandmother called her to her room alone and said with tears in her eyes: "Lanlan, since the villagers have promised you to study. You must fight for energy, and you must get out of this home by studying. ”

Although Chen Lanlan has no feelings for this family, she is still very grateful to her grandmother. If it weren't for my grandmother's insistence on letting me study. Then she won't have a chance to go to school.

She also nodded tearfully at the time and said, "Grandma, don't worry." I must study hard and find a good job in the future to take you to enjoy it. ”

Grandma showed a pleased smile and said emotionally: "Lan Lan, after listening to your words, grandma knows that you are a child with a conscience, and it is not in vain that grandma loves you." Now, grandma can't count on your father and mother, but you are grandma's last hope. You must not let grandma down. ”

"Hmm." Chen Lanlan nodded vigorously, "Grandma, you always have to take care of your body." I'll come back to visit you on vacation. ”

Unexpectedly, grandma shook her head again and again: "Don't." Lan Lan, since you are out, don't come back. ”

Chen Lanlan was surprised: "Why? What if I want you? Besides, you're still sick. Even if I can't take care of you when I go to school, I can at least serve you during the holidays. ”

Grandma shook her head gloomily: "Silly girl, I miss you too." However, I'm worried that as soon as you get home, your cruel father and mother will not let you go. They are usually lazy and lazy, but now they are not lightly ill, and they will not let you go back to school easily. So, you must insist on graduating before you can come back. If you're on vacation, stay at school and review your homework, or find something to do for you girls. For example, tutoring others. With your academic performance so good, it's no problem to be a tutor for children. ”

Chen Lanlan actually didn't want to return to this home, but after all, she was still worried about her grandmother. She couldn't bear to say, "Grandma, if I don't come back, what will you do?" ”

The grandmother gritted her teeth and said to her granddaughter, "Don't worry. Grandma will always wait for you to come back from school. ”

Chen Lanlan had mixed feelings, and couldn't help crying in her grandmother's arms...

Grandma hugged her and suddenly said, "Lan Lan, if grandma leaves early, then you must honor your father." They treat you badly though. But after all, it is the son and daughter-in-law of the grandmother. Therefore, you must have the mind to repay grievances with virtue. ”

Chen Lanlan was a little puzzled by her grandmother's words, so she said, "Grandma, don't worry. I'm not going to hold a grudge against them. They gave birth to me after all. Even if it's not right. They are also my own father and mother. ”

At this time, the grandmother suddenly said incomprehensibly: "Lan Lan, you are really a hard-working child... It would be nice if you had landed in a good family... ”

Chen Lanlan was puzzled by her grandmother's words: "Grandma, what are you talking about?" ”

Grandma quickly wiped her tears: "It's nothing." Hurry up and report to school. Remember the kindness of the villagers. Without them, you wouldn't be able to fulfill your dream of studying. ”

Chen Lan thought that her grandmother was a little incoherent in her lamentation, so she didn't ask any more. However, as soon as she left, she said goodbye to her grandmother forever.

When Chen Lanlan recalled her grandmother to Yang Nannan, she still couldn't hide the pain in her heart.

She choked up and said, "Actually, the person I should repay the most is grandma." But I never had that chance again. Later, I heard that it was my parents who abused my grandmother who was sick in bed, so that she died with regret, and my parents did not appreciate the people in the village sponsoring me to go to school, and actually talked nonsense to others. As a result, the people in the village stopped sponsoring me to continue my studies, let alone care about my parents' life or death, and I could only do my filial piety to my parents according to my grandmother's instructions, and I was still a year away from graduating from college. Seeing that his studies were in vain. In the end... Lee Soon-hee stood up for me... I owe him a big favor now..."

Yang Nannan listened to Chen Lanlan's bitter past, and she had already burst into tears. Her tears rolled down her cheeks from her eyes like pearls that had fallen off her line. Through Chen Lanlan's narration, she was even more sure that Chen Lanlan was not born to the Chen family's parents at all. However, it is inconvenient for him to tell her Chen Lanlan's life experience.

However, she took the opportunity to say: "Sister Lan Lan, the best way for you to repay that male classmate is to give him happiness. Actually, you should also give him happiness. He is the most worthy man in the world for your love. Only he can do everything for you, regardless of gains and losses. If he doesn't get the best in return, then even I feel that God is unfair to him. ”

When Chen Lanlan heard this, the tears on her face did not dry, and she was covered with another layer of frost: "Nan Nan, do you think that I have to sacrifice my love in order to repay my kindness?" ”

Yang Nannan shook his head: "Sister Lanlan, you are older than me, you should know more than me." Do you think that accepting the feelings of that male classmate is sacrificing yourself? Actually, the kind of love you described, is just a feeling. And feeling is actually the most unreliable thing. If it were me, I would marry a man who truly loves me and can sacrifice everything for me. ”

Chen Lanlan smiled bitterly: "Nan Nan, it seems that our two views on love are not the same. However, love and giving are not the same. Sometimes, people can die for you, but they don't necessarily love you. Therefore, we can't pay our whole lives for the other party to give us a momentary touch. ”

Chen Lanlan's implication is not only that she is happy with Li Shunxi, but also alludes to Yang Nannan to Guo Haodong. It seems to remind her - don't think that Guo Haodong is willing to sacrifice his life for her to love her!

Just when Yang Nannan and Chen Lanlan were having a long talk on the phone, Guo Haodong was also unable to hold back in the other bedroom. He first went online to contact the 'Pond Pingsha' on the Internet, but there was no response from the other party for a long time. In the end, he finally couldn't help but call Chen Lanlan's mobile phone directly. However, the other party actually occupied the line.

He couldn't help but be stunned - who was Lan Lan talking to?

Since his bedroom was silent, it allowed his ears to catch the movement next door. So, he leaned over and pressed his ear against the wall next door. As a result, he quickly confirmed that Yang Nannan next door was talking to Chen Lanlan on the phone. Moreover, he also vaguely heard some of the words Yang Nannan said.
