Chapter 22
twenty-two
Speaking of which, Xia Youli, Hu Yuqin and his wife have had much less contact with Zhu Yushen in the past half a year. Hearing that Hu Yuqin's evaluation of Xiao Rong was relatively low, she complained about why Zhu Yushen couldn't wait. In the past, she helped him introduce a girl named Xie Wumei, which didn't work out, but she could also introduce other women to him.
Whenever he heard this, Zhu Yushen always laughed. He knows that people's mouths can't be stopped, so whatever people say. There may be many versions of the same thing that can be said; It's the same person who says it, it's different at different times and in different places.
In the discussion and chatter of others, Zhu Yushen also got the latest news: the construction of the Ning'an intercity railway, which has been suspended for more than a year and passes through the town, has started construction again. Zhu Yushen plans to take a look at the construction site in the evening.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Cong, an old classmate, called that day. Zhang Cong told Zhu Yushen that he had returned to work at the local construction site. Because the proposal of Ning'an Intercity has been carried out with great fanfare, the relocation and transformation on both sides of the line have also followed. The intercity railway has a station between Huangzhen and neighboring towns, so a lot of dilapidated houses have been demolished there, and a subway business district is being built. He is now working as a bricklayer on this site. He said that there was also an old classmate, Wang Danbao, who was helping him.
Zhang Cong sighed, it's better to work at the door of the house, earning money and taking care of the family. His daughter has been around for months, and sometimes he rides home from work, and he has to take the children by the hand. Zhang Cong said that after becoming a father, the situation is really different, and the child's expenses are really scary! Now he has no room for laziness and crooked thoughts, his life is not happy, and he can't say something. When it was over, he proposed to come to the single dormitory of Zhu Yushen's school to drink in a few days. Zhu Yushen told him that he had moved to a house in the town, and asked him and Wang Danbao to come and drink freely.
After talking to Zhang Cong, Zhu Yushen was very interested in the construction of Ning'an Intercity again. In the afternoon, he also talked to Lao Ma about it. Lao Ma said: Convenient transportation is just around the corner. He said that he had inquired and calculated, as long as the Ning'an intercity was opened, we would only be an hour's journey from here to Nanjing; It is also within three hours to Shanghai. At that time, we will be connected to the prosperous eastern region. This is indeed good news!
On Friday afternoon, Zhu Yushen did not have class, so he rode to the edge of the curved street in Huangzhen. Sure enough, bridges had been built on the large cement pillars lined up in the distance, and many people were working on them. Looking at the large red machine above, it gives a sense of grandeur. Demolition is also underway under the bridge. The bricks and tiles of the ruined houses and sheds were scattered all over the ground. The whole picture is a picture of a hundred ruins waiting to be rebuilt.
But a little further on, there is a newly built commercial housing area. There are two construction sites going on around the house, and it looks like the old ones will soon be gone. Seeing this scene, Zhu Yu thought of Zhang Cong. He said he was working at the newly built East High-Speed Railway Station, and he was building a business district for the city. After a little consideration, Zhu Yushen rode hard, all the way to the west, to the place Zhang Cong said.
After riding a long distance, Zhu Yushen came to the station of the city railway. This station is still just a prototype, and a little further north, there is a lot of construction. When Zhu Yushen went to the houses under construction, he saw that many people were busy working. He stood still and watched quietly as the masons and their labourers busied with their hands as bricks and cement mortar fluttered. Their heads and bodies were stained white with ash.
Zhu Yu was stunned for a while. Then, he heard his name shouted overhead. He looked up and saw Zhang Cong wearing a hard hat and holding a powder wall tool in his hand, smiling at him with his mouth open. He asked, "Why are you here?" ”
There was a man wearing sunglasses standing next to Zhang Cong, and he also nodded at Zhu Yushen. After Zhu Yushen and Zhang Cong exchanged a few words, they saw the man turn his head and plaster cement on the brick wall on the second floor. He worked harder.
Zhang Cong told Zhu Yushen that he and his brother Wang Danbao had been working here for some days. There are still many days to be done in this piece of work, and he doesn't have to go out to find work in other places for the time being. He said that this place is not far from Zhu Yushen's school, and he will definitely come over to play and chat when he has time. There is a lot of work today, so I won't accompany Zhu Yushen.
Zhu Yushen said: "It's okay, you have to work, I'm just here to go around." Come and see the scenery of this subway station under construction! With that, he walked away. When he returned, he wandered around the subway station for a while. I thought, this era is developing so fast! I definitely didn't expect the intercity railway to pass through here before. He thought that when the station was officially opened, it should be a busy scene.
In the evening, Xiao Rong came back early, and she also bought a lot of vegetables and came back. She said that they paid their salaries today, and the money had exceeded her expectations, so she bought more vegetables and came back to add food. After a lot of work, the dinner was hearty. During the meal, Zhu Yushen talked about his trip to Zhang Cong during the day, talked about the intercity railway station, and said that there will definitely be great development in this area in the future. After Xiao Rong coped with it a few times, she gushed about the trivial things between the women in their factory. She went on and on, without any focus, and it was unclear what point she was trying to express.
Zhu Yushen sat there calmly and listened to her. He knew that this style of speaking was inherent in the way of adult women. He remembered that the great psychologist Sigmund Freud's Iceberg Theory of Consciousness once said that an ordinary person will only show one-tenth of his mental state in social interactions, but he should reveal six tenths of his family members. This 6 out of 10 is often unbearable for the lover, so they will choose to stop or run away. If it is not handled well, the woman will go elsewhere to confide, which will be more dangerous. Zhu Yushen has read a lot, and of course he knows how to soothe people.
When they had eaten and washed the dishes, they heard a knock at the door, which surprised both of them. Zhu Yushen strode forward, opened the door and saw that it was Zhang Cong.
After Zhang Cong entered the door, he put a bag of fruit on the table. He said: "Yushen, you went to see me on the construction site today, I am busy." You're sorry to leave without even taking a sip of water! In the evening, when I came to my brother's house on Huangzhen Street for dinner, I asked people about the location of your house. No, buy something, it's a reparation. While speaking, Zhu Yushen smelled a strong smell of wine in Zhang Cong's mouth. But his body was already clean, his hair was soaked, and he had obviously only taken a shower.
Zhu Yushen said: "Why don't you come to our house to eat at night when you come to the street?" If you don't come to eat and buy things to my house, why are you embarrassed to call me? ”
Zhang Cong said: "That's not simple, won't it be over drinking at your house another day?" ”
At this time, Xiao Rong also came out to say hello. Zhang Cong glanced at Xiao Rong a few times and praised: "Yushen, you are so blessed!" Sister-in-law can be regarded as a real beauty, you are so cool! ”
Xiao Rong snorted and laughed: "You really know how to speak!" Is your wife bad? ”
Xiao Rong may not know that her words touched Zhang Cong's sore spot, he lowered his head and was silent for a long time. Xiao Rong sensed something, and she looked at Zhu Yushen in wonder.
Zhu Yushen waved his hand at her and said, "Wife, go wash up, go upstairs to rest after washing." Zhang Cong and I haven't seen each other for a year, so we're going to have a good chat tonight. ”
Xiao Rong let out an "oh". She made Zhang Cong a cup of tea, took some fruit out of the refrigerator, put it on the table, and walked away.
As soon as Xiao Rong left, Zhang Cong raised his head. Zhu Yushen saw that his eyes were foggy. He shook his mouth and said, "I really can't figure it out, why is my life so bad?" My ugly woman weighed me down so much that I couldn't lift my head for the rest of my life. I don't want to stay at home! Because of her, I feel like my whole family is like a devil's cave. No, during this time, I was working at the subway station, and although it was not far from home, and it took me 20 minutes to get home by motorcycle, I either lived at the construction site or came to live in the town to my brother's house. My brother bought a house on the east side of the street not long ago. In the past few days, his mother-in-law is not at home, and I go to his house every day to take a bath, and then the two brothers drink darkly. That's the only way to be happy. ”
Zhu Yushen stared at Zhang Cong a few times, and estimated that he must have drunk high tonight, because his tongue was straight when he spoke. Zhu Yushen asked, "Are you here on a motorcycle?" The east end of Main Street is quite far from here. ”
Zhang Cong said: "Yes".
Zhu Yushen stood up in shock. He said, "You drink so much and dare to ride a motorcycle!" What should I do if I fall? You're a father now, and you're responsible for your family. ”
Zhang Cong said disdainfully: "After drinking this little wine, just riding this little road, is it a thing?" It's not that I'm bragging, or I'm no problem riding a motorcycle to the county seat now. I was like this the day before yesterday, didn't I ride home and ride back again? But when I rode on the dirt road to my house, the car jumped up and down, and it could make people fall asleep. It's a little scary to think about. ”
Suddenly, Zhang Cong changed the topic and asked Zhu Yushen: "Yushen, have you had any relationship with Lulu recently?" She's not doing well right now. ”
This sentence caught Zhu Yushen a little off guard, and he subconsciously glanced at the bathroom. Fortunately, Xiao Rong was taking a bath, and the sound of the water was relatively loud, so she shouldn't have heard Zhang Cong's words clearly.
Zhu Yu coughed twice, and said to Zhang Cong to Xiao Rong's side: "Don't mention her soon, it's not good to discuss this topic in my house." ”
Zhang Cong patted his head and whispered, "This is a sensitive topic." Women's hearts are relatively small, I know. But Lulu is pathetic like that, I have to mention it. I heard that she has been sick for a long time. The last time I saw her, she was as thin as a ghost. Seeing her like that, my heart hurts, she is my favorite after all.
However, she once told me that she had fallen in love with you since you visited their house. But you look down on her, and think she is a stumbling woman. But now that you think about it, you're right. Although Lulu is as beautiful as a fairy, because of her special experience, she unfortunately contracted an illness later. If you get together with her, you're in pain right now. It's like now, you sleep with a white and plump wife in your arms every night, it's cool......"
