(Today has a lot of words, so it's a little bit of yesterday.) The appetite raised in the hometown carries the thoughts of countless wanderers.

Zhao Yi has good cooking skills, which is the specialty of many housewives in Shannan, with their efforts, the children of Shannan will miss the dishes and meals at home when they leave Shannan, attracting them to go home thousands of miles away.

Zhao Yi is very confident in his cooking skills. She originally thought that Wang Qiao would be able to make a pot of sauerkraut fish that was not bad, which was nothing in a gourmet province like Shannan, which only showed that he was still a family-oriented, diligent, and capable man of life. She didn't expect that this pot of sauerkraut fish was so good in color and flavor, and it tasted like the tail of a dead fish.

After the fish in the pot were eaten, the sauerkraut was all wiped out. Lu Jin scooped a bowl of white dry rice, soaked in fish soup, and put this bowl of white dry rice into his stomach in a few bites. He has been controlling his weight and never adding to his meals, and today he ate three bowls of dried rice in a row in order to eat this sauerkraut fish soup and rice. After eating a round belly, he gave up.

Lu Qi also ate happily, and when he stopped his chopsticks, he asked, "What kind of fish is the pointed fish?" ”

Wang Qiao said: "It is the most famous specialty of Changdong, cold-water fish. There are also other places in the province, but the quality is not as good as Changdong. In the past, when you were working in your hometown, we found a dark river in Yangbei, which was full of sharp-headed fish, and our life at that time was bitter, but eating pointy fish was like eating wild vegetables in the field, and we could catch one in the dark hole whenever we wanted to eat. Later, I also started a sharp fish business, which was completely collecting money from the dark river. My skills in making fish were already good, and I practiced intensively during that period of time, so this dish was completely masterable, which was a trick, and the skills of other dishes were very average. ”

The Lu family all agree with the term "trick". A large pot of sauerkraut and pointed fish has bottomed out, but most of the other delicacies on the table have not moved, which is the gap between "tricks" and ordinary cooking skills.

Lu Jin: "Since there is this dark hole, selling a few sharp-headed fish every day, life is very nourishing, why do you want to leave this cornucopia?" ”

Wang Qiao joked: "Mencius has already summed up, the heavens will descend on the Si people, and they must first suffer their minds, strain their muscles and bones, starve their bodies and skin, and empty their bodies, and Lu Qi and I are the Si people who are about to get the great responsibility, so there can be no such good things." It was a joke just now, but the specific reason is that there are people in the upper reaches of the dark river who open mines, which causes the dark river to dry up, so there are no more fish. ”

Lu Zhongyong and Zhao Yiqi sighed pity.

After dinner, the family went out for a walk at Shannan Normal University, Lu Qi's alma mater, which was not far away. This university is not far from Shannan University, and it is the only university that Wang Qiao is reluctant to enter, and today he entered the beautiful campus for the first time with the Lu family.

One of the great characteristics of normal universities is the concentration of beautiful women, and now although during the holidays, there are also many beautiful women on the campus who haunt the tree-lined paths.

None of Lu Zhongyong, Zhao Yi, Lu Jin and Wang Qiao have ever been to Shannan Normal University, and Lu Qi, the only one who has studied here, has lost his memory.

Looking at the campus scenery on the edge of the tree-lined playground, Lu Jin received a call and went home to wait for his wife and daughter who were about to go home. The piano exam ended late, and the mother and daughter walked back and encountered a traffic jam. The reason for the traffic jam is that there was a car accident on the road with the largest traffic flow, and the whole line was jammed. By the time the whole line was opened to traffic, it was already half past seven.

When her son left, Zhao Yi gave her husband a look and said, "Wang Qiao, let's sit here, you two young people go around by yourself, and come over to meet later." ”

Looking at the backs of Wang Qiao and Lu Qi walking side by side, Zhao Yi said with emotion: "I didn't expect Wang Qiao to be an expert in housework. We didn't have contact with him before, we thought of him as a flood beast, and took all measures to break up with Xiaoqi. If Xiao Qi had been told the information that Wang Qiao was in the detention center at that time, Xiao Qi would not have gone abroad. If you don't go abroad, you won't be able to get into this car accident. ”

This is also Lu Zhongyong's heart knot. He sighed and said, "None of us are immortals, and we can't know what will happen in the future. One of the reasons why he didn't tell his daughter the truth is that the case of the bald third Zhao An may not be solved, and Wang Qiao is very likely to carry the black pot, in this case, it is not beneficial to tell his daughter; The second reason is that by the time Wang Qiao was acquitted, he had already mixed into a tube plate in the prison, what does it mean to be mixed into a tube plate, that is, he is more vicious than the other bad people in the prison, as a father, can I rest assured that my daughter will be handed over to such a wicked person? Who would have thought that Wang Qiao would later turn back as a prodigal son and become the model he is now. ”

This topic is the topic that the couple has talked about the most recently, and today I can't help but talk about it again. Zhao Yi looked at the pair of young men and women walking slowly, and said, "Xiaoqi is not too young, I really hope they can get married immediately." Lu Zhongyong said: "We can only do this, and we will have to rely on themselves in the future." ”

Wang Qiao and Lu Qi walked casually and stopped in front of a lighted stadium. There were a few people playing in the stadium, they didn't play in groups, they played casually around the court.

Wang Qiao said: "I used to be the best player in the Jingzhou Basketball League, and I played basketball well, and you like to watch me play." ”

"Really? I've seen high-level basketball in the United States. After Lu Qi lost her memory, she often did restorative exercises in the gymnasium, and there was a college team training next to her. In her mind, the level of domestic basketball is not high, and Wang Qiao's ball skills are limited.

Wang Qiao said with great interest: "Then you will watch from the side, and I will go to the field to show my hands." ”

Wang Qiao walked to the field and chatted with his classmates who were playing. He moved his body and began to participate in this kind of dam ball. In order to evoke Lu Qi's memory, Wang Qiao tried all kinds of ways to reproduce the scene that Lu Qi remembered the most. Therefore, when he arrived on the court, he played his skills without reservation, and shot five three-pointers in succession, and actually hit all of them, which is a bit beyond his level.

His strongest ability is to break through to the basket, this kind of fixed-point shooting is not the strongest, but today Lu Qi is beside him, and every time he shoots a basketball, he feels particularly smooth, and he can always hear the beautiful "brush" sound of the basketball drilling through the net.

The students who play ball are all students who stay in school, and they play in the evening, so they can't talk about any ball skills. When they saw that the new tall man had been so bad, they took the initiative to get out of the way and watch the tall man shoot a three-pointer.

Wang Qiao kept switching positions outside the three-point line, shooting a three-pointer every time he changed positions. He switched ten positions and miraculously shot them all, and the audience immediately applauded.

Lu Qi was a little surprised by Wang Qiao's shooting accuracy, and clapped loudly, and only then did she believe the statement of "the best player in the Jingzhou Basketball League".

When he threw the fifteenth three-pointer, Wang Qiao finally missed, causing a "sigh" of pity.

Wang Qiao didn't wait for the basketball to land, stepped forward quickly, jumped high, took the basketball in the air, and came to a one-handed dunk domineeringly. This action drew another round of applause. He came to two three-step layups in succession, playing a bit of fancy, extremely chic.

After performing three or five tricks, Wang Qiao said to everyone: "I showed off in front of my girlfriend, thank you classmates for cheering." My girlfriend is your senior sister and also graduated from Shannan Normal University. ”

The students immediately turned their attention to Lu Qi. The beautiful girlfriend of the slam dunk master, the senior sister, won the favor of the classmates at once, and some outgoing and lively classmates took the initiative to say hello.

Lu Qi smiled and waved to the classmates who greeted him, with a generous demeanor and an elegant temperament.

A classmate asked, "This senior brother, which basketball team are you from?" Provincial team? ”

Wang Qiao said: "I am limited in height and can't beat the provincial team." When I was studying, I was on the school team of Shannan University. ”

The Shannan University team ranks high in the university team, and the tall man used to be a member of the Shannan University team, so it is normal for his ball skills to be so good. After Wang Qiao and Lu Qi left, the students were still talking about the magic skills of fifteen three-pointers in a row.

Wang Qiao washed his hands outside the court, wiped the sweat on his forehead, and said to Lu Qi: "My ball skills are not bad, I used to play in Yangbei, I played every day, you just watched from the side, and sometimes I also went off the court to shoot a few." Also, you know how to ride a motorcycle, and you taught me to ride a motorcycle. ”

Lu Qi said in surprise: "I can ride a motorcycle?" ”

Wang Qiao nodded and said, "You can ride, the level was higher than me at first, and then I surpassed it." You also taught me English. At that time, I graduated from middle school and you were from the Foreign Language Department of Shannan Normal University, and you taught me English every day in order to make me progress. Later, I was able to be admitted to Shannan University, and you have a lot of credit. ”

In conversation, Wang Qiao always has to tell the story of the past, even if he can't recall Lu Qi's memory, he can rebuild her memory little by little. As long as the memory is established, even if there is a miss, it will always make up for it.

Lu Qi understands this. She had a question hidden in her heart, and without anyone else present, she asked: "Are you my ex-boyfriend, or my boyfriend?" There is also a more intimate question, to what extent did we interact at that time? ”

Wang Qiao has always advocated telling the truth, and family life is no exception, and said sincerely: "Objectively speaking, we have never proposed to formally break up, but we can't find each other, and we are lost." From this point of view, it can be regarded as a boyfriend or an ex-boyfriend. I later dated two women, but broke up for various reasons, and in that sense, I'm your ex-boyfriend. ”

Hearing that Wang Qiao later dated two women, Lu Qi was still a little disappointed in her heart, and said, "Have you been in love twice?" ”

Wang Qiao nodded and said, "I've talked twice." Now I'm single and haven't been in any relationship with any woman. As for the last question you asked, I can only say that it was quite intimate, we were both experiencing sex for the first time, otherwise I wouldn't have forgotten it. ”

In the setting sun, Lu Qi's face was slightly red.

When it was about to get dark, the four of them returned home, and Lu Jin, his wife and daughter were not at home.

Wang Qiao sat with everyone in the living room for a while, and then said goodbye to everyone. Wang Qiao said to Lu Qi: "I will go back to Huarong Community today. I'll come over tomorrow morning at about ten o'clock. ”

Zhao Yi said enthusiastically: "Wang Qiao, you come over earlier." Xiaoqi has to run in the morning, and Uncle Lu and I have no way to accompany her. Lu Jin must sleep lazy, you come to accompany Xiaoqi for a run. ”

Lu Qi politely refused: "Don't bother Wang Qiao, I want to run more freely by myself." ”

Zhao Yidao: "You can't even remember the road, what if you run away, Wang Qiao is in good health, let him come over to accompany you." ”

Wang Qiao understood Zhao Yi's good intentions, and said cooperatively: "It's an honor to accompany Lu Qi to run in the morning, tomorrow morning at half past six, I will wait for you at the gate of the community, see you or leave." ”

Lu Qi understood that the family was in contact with Wang Qiao, who she met on the "first day", so in order not to spoil everyone's interest, she agreed.

Zhao Yi said again: "Xiaoqi, send one to Wang Qiao." ”

Lu Qi sent Wang Qiao downstairs.

Coming to the side gate of the community, Wang Qiao said: "I live in my sister's house, and my sister lives in Huarong Community, not far from here, and you can walk for about ten minutes." My sister wants to see you, so I invite you to have a meal in Huarong Community. ”

Lu Qi said: "There is a presumptuous question, do you have the habit of keeping a diary?" If I have a diary, I would like to look at the diary of that year. ”

"I don't have a diary record." Wang Qiao suddenly slapped his head and said, "I'm stupid, I don't have the habit of keeping a diary, but you do." You had a diary when you were in your old hometown, dark green, thick one. I guess the diary is locked in your drawer or box, and when you find this diary, a lot of things will be clear. ”

The diary Wang Qiao mentioned was Lu Qi's diary many years ago. When he was in his hometown, Lu Qi had the habit of keeping a diary, and for a while he brought this diary with an old-fashioned combination lock to the sheep's back. After the two became intimate, Wang Qiao joked that he wanted to look at the diary, but Lu Qi refused without hesitation.

From the loss of contact between the two in 94 years to 2003, ten years have made Wang Qiao ignore this detail. At this time, Lu Qi mentioned that Wang Qiao felt that he was a fool and forgot such an important matter. On the other hand, I feel happy that with the diary as a big killer, it will be easier to rebuild Lu Qi's memory.

No matter how detailed Wang Qiao tells the past, Lu Qi may be half-convinced, and with 'half-doubt', it is easy to fail to reconstruct or awaken the memory. The diary was written by Lu Qi himself, and his credibility is quite high. Wang Qiao believes that Lu Qi will definitely record his thoughts about himself in his notebook.

Lu Qi was even more desperate to retrieve his memory, and when he learned that he had a notebook, he immediately returned.

When she got home, Lu Qi met with her strange sister-in-law and strange niece Lu Dujuan, who had just returned home.

Lu Dujuan was only eight years old and still a little ignorant, so he said a few words to his sister-in-law and went to watch TV.

Sister-in-law Wu Minghong saw that the sister-in-law, who was usually close, had forgotten everyone completely, and she didn't hold back, so she cried on the spot. Lu Qi pulled the napkin and sat next to Wu Minghong, and comforted: "Sister-in-law, in that car accident, it was later reported that two classmates died. ”

Lu Jin said: "Xiaoqi is back, everyone is happy, Minghong, don't make trouble." ”

Wu Minghong wiped away her tears and said to her sister-in-law: "Have you seen Wang Qiao, how are others?" You used to have a very good vision, and you were not willing to introduce you to many young people with good conditions. ”

Lu Jin patted his stomach and said, "I am not satisfied with one thing about Wang Qiao. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked, Lu Zhongyong glared at his son and said, "You don't talk nonsense." ”

Lu Jin said: "I'm telling the truth, Wang Qiao's sauerkraut fish is so delicious, I use fish soup to soak rice and eat three bowls in a row, if he often comes to the house to cook fish, I will eat it into a big fat man." ”

Zhao Yi stretched out his hand and patted his son's shoulder, and said, "You scared my mother to death, it's an extraordinary time, you big mouth don't talk a few nonsense." ”

Lu Qi was worried about the diary, and said, "Wang Qiao just said that I used to have a diary, dark green, relatively thick, I want to find out and take a look." Mom, do you have any impressions? ”

Zhao Yi shook his head and said, "I have no impression." Your stuff is in the house, and no one has ever touched it. If you have this notebook, it should still be there. ”

Lu Qi rummaged around in the dormitory, looking for more than an hour, but did not find this notebook. Zhao Yi helped beside him, taking down the books on the bookshelf one by one, but still didn't find the diary that Wang Qiao said.

At this time, Lu Zhongyong came over with a box and said, "After Xiaoqi returned to the United States last year, I found that both legs of the old bed were loose, so I replaced it with a new bed. There was no space under the new bed, so I put Xiaoqi's suitcase in the guest room. This time Xiaoqi came back, and I forgot to mention it to her. ”

The suitcase had a lock, and in a small drawer in the middle of the bookcase lay a bunch of keys, the smallest of which easily opened the padlock. There were several notebooks in the suitcase, one of which was a thick notebook in dark green, and there was a colorful group photo next to the dark green notebook.

This group photo reads "1993 Teacher Training Group Photo of Old Township School", and Lu Qi is in the first row of the group photo, her young face full of melancholy. In the last row, there was a tall young teacher, it was Wang Qiao, but Wang Qiao was young at that time, and Wang Qiao is mature now.

Seeing this photo, Lu Qi said: "Wang Qiao really didn't fall from the sky, we used to work together. ”

Hearing this, except for Lu Dujuan, who was concentrating on watching TV, everyone else was a little sad. Lu Zhongyong wanted to say something that could prove that the two were together, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say it. He thought for a while and said, "Let's go out first, let Xiaoqi quietly look at his diary." ”

A few people sat back in the living room, Wu Minghong was still very curious about Wang Qiao, and said, "Looking at the photo just now, Wang Qiao is a few years younger than Xiaoqi." ”

Lu Jin said: "Nonsense, Wang Qiao graduated from middle school at that time and taught elementary school, and my sister graduated from university and taught junior high school. Female junior, hugging gold bricks, haven't you heard of it? ”

Lu Qi appeared at the door again and said, "The notebook has a six-digit password, I can't remember it clearly, I tried several sets of numbers, but I couldn't open it." What's Mom and Dad's birthday, I'll give it a try? ”

After noting down her parents' birthdays, Lu Qi changed several combinations, but she still couldn't open them.

Lu Jin suggested: "If you really can't open it, break the lock, or find a locksmith." ”

Lu Zhongyong has been in charge of criminal investigation work for a long time and has a keen mind. He made a suggestion: "You call and ask about Wang Qiao's birthday, and try again." ”

Lu Qi shook his head and said, "It's too late, don't bother others." ”

Lu Jin turned around and walked to the balcony and called Wang Qiao to ask for his birthday.

Lu Qi walked into the bedroom with a note written on Wang Qiao's birthday, took six numbers of year, month, and day, and opened the digital lock.
