Chapter 73

Seventy-three

Xu Xiaojuan saw her parents smiling at the gift given by Wu Bao, and felt that something bad was wrong. She shouted at Wu Bao: "Whoever is rare in your things, quickly put away your things!" Get the hell out of here, we're going to eat. ”

Seeing this, Xu's father criticized his daughter and said: "Everyone is coming, no matter what, let's have a meal together before leaving." Mother Xu didn't squeak, she was engrossed in trying on the jade bracelet.

Wu Bao said, "Wait a little longer, I'll leave." Immediately after, he took out a cardboard box and quickly ripped it open. He handed the thing to Xu Xiaojuan and said, "Juan, this is a new mobile phone bought for you." The one you used is too old, you can replace it for your aunt. This one is the latest and has all the features. After hearing this, Mother Xu stared at the new mobile phone. Xu Xiaojuan didn't say anything at this time. She took the phone and fiddled with the keyboard with her white fingers.

Zhu Yushen, who had strong self-esteem, saw this scene and felt that he had no reason to stay here anymore. He said to Xu Xiaojuan's parents: "Uncle Xu, auntie, my aunt is still waiting for me to cross the cloud for dinner, and I called again just now to urge, and I left." ”

He didn't wait for them to answer, he picked up the umbrella he was holding there and left, and took all his gifts. Xu Xiaojuan's family looked at him with stunned expressions, and before they could react, Zhu Yushen had already gone out. only heard a "pop", Xu Xiaojuan threw the phone on the table and scolded: "Whoever wants your mobile phone, if you don't leave, you will be angry and leave!" ”

Zhu Yushen opened the bicycle lock, and when he saw that the rain was small, he put the umbrella in Louzi and pushed the car to the side of the road. Walk onto the side road. When he was about to get into the car, he heard Xu Xiaojuan shouting behind him: "The rain is deep." Are you mad at me? Zhu Yushen stopped, Xu Xiaojuan, you call yourself like this. He sounded more comfortable. But at the same time, he hated Wu Bao calling her so affectionately. Xu Xiaojuan walked to Zhu Yushen's side, and then the rain suddenly fell heavily. She pleaded, "Yushen, you better go back to dinner." ”

Zhu Yushen shook his head and stepped into the car. Xu Xiaojuan suddenly cried loudly, she complained: "Why am I always pestered by people I hate, so that I am not qualified to fall in love with the person I like." Why is my life so miserable! ”

Zhu Yushen glanced at her, her tears mixed with the rain flowing down her forehead. He held back his tears and wanted to say something more, but by this time Wu Bao had already walked up to them. Wu Bao propped the umbrella on Xu Xiaojuan's head. Xu Xiaojuan pushed him out.

Zhu Yushen didn't think about it anymore, he stepped onto the car, and as soon as he pedaled hard, the bicycle rushed forward along the small downhill. But Xu Xiaojuan's cry kept lingering in his ears. After riding for a few miles, her voice still lingered.

Soon after, his whole body was drenched again, and he felt heavy under his feet. He didn't pay attention to his bicycle again, and he didn't care, and hit a big rock on the side of the road. The car and people fell in the middle of the asphalt road. After getting up, Zhu Yushen felt that his right arm and waist were in pain, and he couldn't help crying loudly. At the moment, he was like a wounded, lonely wolf. Wailing in the rain.

After a while, the cell phone in the jacket pocket rang. As soon as he saw that it was his aunt calling, he held back the pain and answered the phone. My aunt said on the other end of the phone, "It's already twelve o'clock." Xiao Shen, why haven't you arrived yet? Zhu Yushen told her aunt that she was almost there. Then he got back on the bike and rode hard.

In the supermarket at the entrance of the neighborhood where my aunt's house is located. Zhu Yushen bought the gift again, and then rode to the downstairs of his aunt's house. After entering the door. My aunt was very distressed when she saw that he was drenched all over. My uncle also took out his clothes and told him to take a hot shower. Zhu Yushen saw that the table was full of dishes and an electric hot pot, and knew that they hadn't eaten yet, so he said, "Auntie, uncle, you can eat first, it's been waiting until now." I'll take a shower first. ”

Then he stood under the shower's shower, turned the water to the maximum, and rushed it to his head, not wanting to move for a while. After bathing and dressing, he came to the table. His uncle was waiting for him while drinking. Seeing him come out, he hurriedly poured him a glass of wine.

Zhu Yushen sat down, clinked glasses with his uncle, and then drank wine and ate the dishes fiercely. As soon as he finished eating, his uncle's mobile phone rang, and it was a poker friend who asked him to go over to play mahjong. He smiled slightly apologetically and said to Zhu Yushen: "After missing for a while, I'll go out for a few laps." With that, he couldn't wait to change his shoes and go out.

My aunt was cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, and when she saw him go out, she scolded: "I know how to gamble!" I don't do any housework at home, and I'm too lazy to die. Hello Xiaoshen, that is, I don't smoke or gamble, and I read and write in the dormitory when I have nothing to do. Now people like you can't be found anymore. Oh, by the way, Xiao Shen, why did you arrive at my house so late today? ”

Zhu Yushen wanted to speak and stopped, thought for a while and said, "I accidentally fell on the road." It was raining again, and I stopped and went, so I arrived late. Hearing him say this, my aunt hurriedly said, "Where did you fall?" Does it matter? Then she took out the bone water and gave it to Zhu Yushen and said, "Wipe it first, it's best to go to the hospital in the afternoon." Zhu Yushen took the bone water and rubbed some on his body. He said that there was nothing wrong, but at the moment his legs and waist were aching, and his heart was also hurting.

He looked at his aunt's graceful and luxurious appearance, and longed to be like when he was wronged, when he was wronged, he threw himself into her arms and cried happily. Because the family was poor, his mother left him early and ran away from home. Lacking maternal love, he has always relied on his gentle little aunt as his mother's love. The little aunt is not a few years older than him, but because she has not had children since marriage, she takes her nephew more seriously.

But now it is clear that he is no longer fit to do so. My aunt put his wet clothes in the small room and turned on the heating of the air conditioner to dry them. And told him not to go, anyway, tomorrow is Sunday, no need to go to work. Zhu Yushen felt tired, so he didn't excuse himself, chatted with his aunt for a while after eating, and then entered the guest room with the heating on.

Zhu Yu lay down on the bed, his bones were crispy, and his whole body was soft. But he didn't feel sleepy, so he simply sat up and looked out the window. The rain was still pouring down, and there was silence all around. He was thinking: Xu Xiaojuan didn't know how long she would stand in the rain when they were separated? Her dry clothes from the shower were also soaked in the rain. I don't know if Wu Bao left in the end? What kind of attitude will Xu Xiaojuan have towards Wu Bao next? Hey, a poor but unsympathetic girl!

Expanding on this, Zhu Yushen believes that there must be many such girls in social reality. Because they are careless or framed, their value is discounted, and they have no reserved capital, so they cannot be accepted by slightly more ideal people. The one he met a year ago, the beautiful Li Lulu who had no good home because she had stumbled, he thought it should also belong to this situation.

If it weren't for the detours they had taken, they would certainly have some advantages over ordinary girls, and most of them would have found a good home. Zhu Yushen believes that if this is the case, she meets herself unexpectedly in this situation, and then knows and loves each other, which may be a good thing for each other. But now...... It can be said that the sunset is infinitely good, but it is just near dusk! He sighed: Who will save you, kind, beautiful girl who has gone astray? Who will save me, the down-and-out scholar who knows no more about the world?

The next morning, when the sky was clear and the sun was shining, Zhu Yushen rode on his bicycle and embarked on the return journey. When he passed by the village where Xu Xiaojuan's house was located, he stopped. He stopped where he was, looking in the direction of Xu Xiaojuan's house. His heart ached like a wound. He closed his eyes and pondered for a moment. Then press the pedal hard and the car sped all the way forward. He thought that he would not be able to and would not go back to Dahua Clothing for a period of time after that. His hope was lifted and then annihilated.

Life is so dull that it's tireless. At the end of the day's teaching work every day, Zhu Yu, who returned to the dormitory, felt that the rooms of more than ten square meters were so big! When he finished his teaching work and lay down on the bed to rest, he felt that the walls on all sides were pressing against him. He hated this cold world because it created so many people whose lives were as thin as paper. They are at the lowest level of society, belong to the category of the lower food chain, and harm each other. He himself was caught up in it and couldn't extricate himself. (To be continued......)
