Chapter 43: About Truth
It was late when I arrived at Charlotte's house, and the two children were lying on the cot in their pajamas/flipping through the dictionaries.
Hearing the sound of opening the door and the voice of Fu Zhuozhao and Xia Luo talking, one was busy shouting for dad and the other shouting for mom.
Xia Luo and Fu Zhuozhao responded in unison, quickly changed their shoes and walked to the hut.
As soon as Li Miao saw Xia Luo appear at the door, he was about to jump to the ground barefoot, but Xia Luo hurriedly took two steps forward and hugged him before he was about to jump.
In contrast, Fu Yinuo was much more obedient, and smiled sweetly at Xia Luo and Fu Zhuozhao, "Aunt Su, Dad, you're back!" ”
Fu Zhuozhao smiled and stepped forward to touch/touch/touch his little head, "What are you doing?" ”
Fu Yinuo pointed to the two rows of dictionaries on the bed/up, "I'm looking at the dictionary that Aunt Su bought." ”
Fu Zhuozhao's attention just now was completely attracted by the two children, and he really didn't pay attention to the things on the bed, so he followed his son's instructions and moved his gaze, and when he saw the rows of dictionaries on the bed, he instantly stumbled.
"Ah, Asu, what are you doing with so many dictionaries?"
Xia Luo turned his son in his arms and put him and Fu Yinuo side by side before he replied: "Of course it's for Miao Miao and Nuonuo!" ”
Li Miao opened her mouth wide, "Mom, it's really all for us!" ”
Charo nodded, "Of course it's for you!" But ......" Xia Luo deliberately lengthened his voice, and when Li Miao and Fu Yinuo's eyes were unconsciously focused on themselves, looking forward to their next words, they continued: "But you can't watch it!" ”
Yes?! Yes?! Yes?!
Three 'ah' sounded at the same time, and even Fu Zhuozhao followed with a sigh, buy it or not, this magic horse rhythm!
Xia Luo smiled mysteriously, pointed to the largest and most profound dictionary and said: "This dictionary is not an ordinary dictionary, it is very, very powerful, there are very few people who can understand it, there are few in the country, and they are all very good people, so ......"
Xia Luo first nodded the small foreheads of the two people, and then sighed regretfully: "You are not qualified to watch this now!" ”
"So how can we qualify?" Li Miao couldn't wait to blurt out.
Fu Yinuo also blinked his eyes wide, looking at Xia Luo expectantly, with the same intention as Li Miao, wanting to know how to obtain the qualification to read this big dictionary and become one of the few cattle in the country.
Fu Zhuozhao turned his head twitching/twitching, looking at the gray roof for a while, and looking at the patched floor leather for a while, he really couldn't bear to see the two little children being fooled like this.
Xia Luo ignored Fu Zhuozhao and continued to act, "There is no shortcut!" Xia Luo shook his head, "You can only upgrade a little bit!" ”
"Upgrade?"
The two children exclaimed at the same time, "Is it like a mobile game?" ”
Charlo deliberately tilted his head and thought for two seconds, "Well, it's like a game." ”
Li Miao suddenly rushed to Xia Luo's side and shook her arm, "Mom, how are you going to play!" ”
Xia Luo shook his head, "It's hard to play, very few people can clear the level, are you sure you want to play?" ”
"Sure!" Li Miao and Fu Yinuo nodded firmly.
"Okay, I'll tell you about the rules of the first level, first of all," Charlo pointed to the smallest dictionary, "this is a first-level dictionary, and your goal in the first level is it!" ”
Li Miao and Fu Yinuo sat upright on the small bed, listening carefully to Xia Luo's flickering.
"The one you use now, the one you learn how to look up is called a zero-level dictionary, the upgrade rules and game rules of the first level are very simple, I believe it is not a problem for you, as long as you use the zero-level dictionary to check the three books......"
Charo suddenly stopped talking and reached for her bag, and the eyes of several people followed her hand as she pulled out a ...... Sci-fi shijie.
Hand the sci-fi shijie to the two children, "As long as you use the zero-level dictionary to check the three sci-fi shijie, you can take the sci-fi shijie and fluently tell us the stories inside, you can successfully upgrade and obtain the qualification to use the first-level dictionary." ”
Charlo paused, and suddenly said in a high-pitched voice: "Do you have faith! ”
"There is !!" The two children answered in unison.
Xia Luo hurriedly made a cheering gesture at the two children, and the two children also returned to Xia Luo neatly, and then the two pairs of big eyes began to wink at Xia Luo in unison.
Charlo was puzzled and blinked.
Zuihou or Li Miao spoke first, "Mom, what about the second level?" ”
"Uh, level two~~" She hadn't made it up yet, and secretly glanced at Fu Zhuozhao, who turned his back and snickered, "What, that's the case, when will you be promoted to level one, and the rules of the game for level two can tell you ......"
"Ah, that's right." The two little children were a little disappointed.
Xia Luo hurriedly added, "But I can reveal a ...... or two to you first" The two children began to wink at Xia Luo again.
Xia * coughed twice, "The more difficult the game gets, and when you get to the sixth level, ......" Xia Luo pointed to the tall dictionary, "It will be very difficult, so ......" Xia Luo moved his finger to the smallest one, "The foundation must be laid!" Do you understand? ”
"Got it!" The two children nodded, ambitious.
"That's good!" Charlo clapped her hands, and under the gaze of the children, she began to arrange the dictionaries in order from smallest to largest, and placed them on the tall cabinet.
The two children looked up at the big dictionary with reverence on their faces, and the goal of life was instantly filled in in addition to growing taller!
Xia Luo suppressed the urge to laugh wildly, rubbed the hair of the two children, and said to Fu Zhuozhao: "Zhuo Zhao, let Xiaonuo sleep here tonight, the two children have finished washing, don't toss at night!" ”
Fu Zhuozhao nodded, bent down and kissed Fu Yinuo's forehead, "Then Dad will go first, and I'll pick you up from school tomorrow!" ”
"Hmm!" Fu Yinuo nodded obediently, "Dad zaijian!" ”
"Uncle Fu zaijian!" Li Miao also waved politely beside him.
"Hmm." Pinching Li Miao's face, Fu Zhuozhao walked towards the door with a smile, and Xia Luo hurriedly got up to send it.
Opening the door, Fu Zhuozhao suddenly turned around, lowered his body and said with a smile: "It's quite flickering!" ”
"Shh......hhhh After shouting, he didn't forget to glare at him: "You are not allowed to dismantle my platform!" ”
Fu Zhuozhao smiled, leaned into Xia Luo's ear and whispered, "Don't worry, no, I know you are for their good." ”
Charo nodded with satisfaction and smiled smugly, "It's good to know!" ”
Fu Zhuozhao withdrew from the door with raised eyebrows, "I'm leaving." ”
"Well, be careful when driving at night, don't drive too fast." Charo admonished.
"Got it~"
Fu Zhuozhao returned home happily all the way, humming a song and washing up into a dream.
Early the next morning, before going out, Fu Zhuozhao received several photos from Xia Luo, in which the three of them were happily eating breakfast around the small table, and there were two close-up photos of breakfast, which were very rich. Fu Zhuozhao smiled and read the information back and forth several times before going to work with a happy face.
However, Xia Luo, who brought Fu Zhuozhao a good mood, gradually became heavy at this time.
As soon as she stepped into the office, she saw her younger brother busy, Tian Xue's matter suddenly jumped from her mind to her eyes, she had a sad face, how to talk to Su Chu about this?
With the office door open, you can occasionally see her younger brother scurrying around, and Xia Luo scolded Tian Xue and her mother hundreds of times in her heart.
Zuihou could only bite the bullet and drag Su Chu out of the office.
On the bench on the morning glory stand in the garden of the community downstairs, Xia Luo opened her mouth several times but didn't say anything, Su Chu looked at her puzzled, "Sister, what's wrong with you?" ”
"Uh, Xiao Chu, sister will introduce you to a girlfriend."
Yes?!
Su Chu reacted for two seconds before he realized what his sister was talking about, and hurriedly waved his hand, "Sister, don't be kidding!" ”
"Who was kidding!" Xia Luo stood up from the chair with a swish, stood in front of Su Chu, and put his hands on his waist, "I'm serious!" ”
Su Chu lowered his head and whispered, "Sister, I don't have that idea for the time being." ”
Xia Luo got angry when he saw his ungentlemanly appearance, and pulled his ears to lift his head, "Can't you let go of that Tian Xue?" ”
"Sister!" Su Chu broke free from Xia Luo's hands and didn't look over.
Alas, this is also a bear child who has not grown up.
Xia Luo sighed, retracted the posture of the teapot, and took the tender route instead.
Gently sat next to Su Chu and grabbed his shoulder, "Sister knows, the first love, or the first love that didn't succeed, that is, the white moonlight in front of the bed, the cinnabar mole in the heart, it's normal for you to think about her, sister doesn't stop you from thinking about her!" ”
Su Chu turned his head and looked at his old sister expectantly.
"But......" Charlo turned, "I won't let you contact her if you think about it!" ”
"Weishenme!" Su Chu was anxious all of a sudden, and Teng stood up suddenly.
Xia Luo raised her eyes, "You're really going to look for her!" ”
"Sister," Su Chu's voice softened and squatted in front of Xia Luo, "Tian Xue is a good girl, we couldn't be together, mainly because her mother disliked me for having no car, no house, and no parents...... However, it's different now, our company is developing so well, as long as it takes another period of time, it won't take too long, just a year or two, the car, the house, ......, I will give her everything her mother wants! ”
Charo sneered, "Look at what you're talking about, she! Mother! You can give everything you want, do you marry Tian Xue or marry her mother! ”
Su Chu was frustrated, stood up and sat next to Xia Luo again, "Sister, don't you raise the bar?" ”
Xia Luo turned sideways to face Su Chu, "I don't call it raising the bar, this is a fact, have you ever heard of what it means to see the truth in tribulation?" University student! ”
Su Chu lowered his head and defended in a low voice, "Tian Xue, she was forced by her mother!" ”
"I believe it!" Charo nodded, "Judging from the past, she is indeed a good girl, but ......"
Su Chu lowered his head and didn't speak, but his ears were standing up and waiting for Xia Luo's next words.
"You have been dating for a few years, and she was forced to break up after only a month when her mother found out, which can only show that her desire to be with you is not firm in the first place, or that she is too weak!"
Xia Luo raised his hand, stopped Su Chu's desire to speak, and continued: "No matter what the situation is, as long as you continue to be with her, a bomb will be planted in your life, even if you have a car, a house and a deposit to recover her immediately!" There are always ups and downs in life, can you guarantee that your future life will be smooth! If one day, you enter a low period, what will this woman who once left you because of your poverty choose? Leaving you again! Or leave you again under the pressure of her mother! The same is leaving! The same betrayal! Is there a difference between being forced? ”
Su Chu had nothing to say.
Xia Luo sighed, turned around and leaned back in his chair, looking at the morning glory above his head, "Women, it's adversity that sees true love, just like Tian Xue; As for men, they are rich and noble, just like Li Guohua...... Xiao Chu, your sister's sin doesn't want you to suffer again! ”
After saying this, Xia Luo sighed in his heart, stood up from the chair, and continued: "Besides, Tian Xue may not have the time to wait for you to have everything her mother wants in a year or two, you may not know, Tian Xue has returned to China." ”
Su Chu raised his head suddenly, and his eyes widened to look at Xia Luo.
"Two days ago, in the next city, I saw her when I went to play, and she was talking to the lawyer friend I once mentioned......" Xia Luo swallowed and spitted out turbid breath before he said with difficulty: "Blind date." ”
As soon as the words fell, Su Chu was stunned, and looked straight at Xia Luo as if he couldn't believe it.
Xia Luo let out a long sigh and patted Su Chu's shoulder, "I won't lie to you, think about it yourself." ”
Then he turned around and left, leaving Su Chu a space to think independently and lick his wounds.
She chose a corner from a distance that Su Chu couldn't see and sat down, silently accompanying and guarding him—a child who had not yet fully grown up.
