Seeing Zhan Tianyou away, it was almost noon. (Please remember that because there was going to be a graduation dinner, Sun Yuanqi cleaned up a little in the office and came to the school cafeteria.)

Before he reached the door of the cafeteria, Sun Yuanqi saw the students gathering in twos and threes to chat, and Zhang Yuanji and several other teachers were doing shade under the shade of the tree. ”。

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm late, I've been waiting for a long time!". Sun Yuanqi arched his hand to everyone present.

Luo Zhenyu shook the folding fan: "It's not that you're late, it's that our meals came too early." …”

After being blind for a while, seeing that everyone had gathered, more than 50 teachers and students humbly entered the cafeteria.

Five or six tables had already been set up in the hall of the cafeteria, and the tables were covered with all kinds of cold dishes and fruit plates, and wine cups, bowls and chopsticks were neatly arranged. It seems that Zhang Yuanji and the canteen have been preparing for this for a long time, not to mention the meat and vegetable matching of the dishes, taking into account the north and south, and even the name paper on the seat is withered, so that everyone does not need to be too polite, and the seat is according to the name, saving countless troubles.

As the saying goes: no wine is not a feast. Today's casual meal is definitely indispensable to the contents of such cups. After everyone finished pouring their wine, as the vice president and director of the school committee, Zhang Yuanji got up to make a toast:

"Dear teachers and students, good afternoon!

"Today, we are gathered here to celebrate the end of the four years of study and the academic success of the students, and also to send the students to the Quartet to fight for the prosperity of the country and the nation.

"Here, on behalf of the school, I would like to present two poems to the students: the first acquaintance of the students when they enter the school, and the graduation is not a complete process. Involved in the world or today, but standing in life.

"Finally, for the eternal life of the school, for the health of the teachers, and for the bright future of the students, please drink this cup!"

"Cheers!".

"Drink to win!".

In the midst of the noise, everyone drank their glasses of wine and began the feast.

Sun Yuanqi had already made up his mind to quit drinking a few years ago, but on this occasion, he had to drink a little no matter what.

But once you start it, you can't stop it. Zhang Yuanji and Luo Zhenyu are teasing wine, they are all colleagues, or are they peers, so they can't help drinking, right? Students from each department came to toast and got along for four years, and they couldn't help but drink with deep affection, right?

This mellow and fragrant two-pot head, in the eyes of greedy drinkers, is really a good product. But when he got up and said to Sun Yuan, who was afraid of alcohol like a tiger, he only felt that a line of fire was running down his throat from his mouth, and then he was turning over the river and the sea in his stomach and tossing endlessly. August was already hot and with strong wine, I felt a little confused when I came and went.

Sun Yuanqi drank a little too much, and those students also drank a lot, and most of them were stunned young people who had never drunk in the wine field, and when they came up, they poured it violently, and as a result, before the dishes were served, several fell down). The rest are also somewhat drunk, each holding a wine glass to find acquaintances to catch and fight, or hugging friends to say something that is rarely confided in their hearts.

Afraid of losing his temper in front of the students, Sun Yuanqi and several teachers at the same table sued him, so he took a strong tea and walked outside the door to disperse the wine.

Before the tea was finished, he saw Zuo Gongxian walking out of the cafeteria with two wine glasses, and when he raised his eyes, he saw himself sitting on a bench under the shade of the tree, so he swayed and looked for it. Looking at this chaotic footsteps, you can know that he must have drunk a lot. Sure enough, four or five steps away, you could smell the smell of wine all over his body.

"You've drunk a lot, haven't you?" Sun Yuanqi asked with concern.

Zuo Gongxian's words were a little vague: "Hehe, Mr. Sun, I, I'm okay, I didn't drink too much." …”

Sun Yuanqi smiled secretly in his heart: Just like you, haven't you drunk too much? It seems that as others say, those who are not drunk say that they are drunk, and those who are drunk say that they are not drunk.

Before he could speak, Zuo Gong handed over the wine glass in his hand first, watched Sun Yuanqi take it, and gently touched the glass: "Thanks, thank you, Mr. for all these years of planting and cultivation, the student will never forget it!" Sincerely, I would like to wish the first in the cup, Mr. Life is quiet, and the world is smooth and smooth. ”。

Seeing that he was stumbling when he spoke, Sun Yuanqi knew that he was completely strong now, and if he went down for another glass of wine, he would be drunk and fall to the ground. Hurriedly stopped his wine glass at the moment: "It's not in a hurry to drink!" Our teachers and students are about to separate, so why don't we meet again in the future, so why not take this opportunity to talk about your future plans. …”

A while ago, Sun Yuanqi already knew that Zuo Gongxian and Li Guobing were going to work in Shanghai, so he asked from this. As he spoke, Sun Yuanqi snatched the wine glass from his hand, rested it on the ground, and pulled him to sit down on the bench.

"Future, plan? He repeated hesitantly.

Sun Yuan nodded: "Yes, what are you going to do in the future?" Do you want to continue studying physics, or are you going to do something else? ”。

I don't know if it's the hot weather, or the strength of the wine is surging, Zuo Gongxian's face is red, and the green tendons on his neck are struggling. Suddenly, with lightning speed, he quickly picked up the wine cup on the ground in front of him and poured it into his mouth without thinking. After drinking a mouth, he turned his face and stared at Sun Yuanqi directly, and he didn't stumble when he spoke: "Sir, the student wants to ask you for something, is it okay?" ”。

"Say it!". Sun Yuanqi was also a little puzzled, why did Zuo Gongxian, who is usually very bold, rely on wine to strengthen his courage today?

Zuo Gong took a few breaths before turning his heart aside: "The student wants to ask you to be an iceman!" ”。  "Iceman? Although Sun Yuanqi has been in the Qing Dynasty for so long, there is still some estrangement, for example, he doesn't know that "Iceman..." is the meaning of the matchmaker, so he subconsciously asked.

"Hmm!". Zuo Gongxian nodded heavily, "I, I am happy with Zhao Jinghui..............." may be weak and timid, when he said the last few words, his voice was obviously lowered, almost inaudible.

Sun Yuanqi, who was close at hand, heard it clearly, and finally guessed the general meaning, it is estimated that Zuo Gongxian has a crush on Zhao Jinghui and hopes to be a matchmaker. Counting on her fingers, Zhao Jinghui is already ten years old, and she is certainly a "leftover girl" in the Qing Dynasty. , the old girl, is placed in the 21st century, and has reached the age of talking about marriage.

And Zuo Gongxian, a student, Sun Yuanqi has known each other for four or five years, and he is indeed a very good young man, and the two are very flattering. nodded immediately: "It's naturally no problem for me to be an iceman, the key depends on whether the two of you and your parents agree or not." ”。

Zuo Gongxian smiled when he heard this, and said "Thank you, sir." Before he finished speaking, he fell drunk on the bench like mud, unconscious.

Sun Yuanqi couldn't cry or laugh when he saw this, and he couldn't figure out whether he was drunk and messy, or he was drunk and spit out the truth. I had to ask a few students to carry him back to the dormitory to take care of the students first, and then let him go to the principal's office to find him when he woke up.

Zuo Gongxian, who was still a little confused after sobering up at dusk, moved to the principal's office step by step. Looking at Sun Yuanqi's face full of smiling expressions, this young man in his twenties was so ashamed that he couldn't raise his head, and stood cramped at the door, neither entering nor retreating.

Sun Yuanqi knew that in the late Qing Dynasty, although the folk customs had gradually become civilized, marriage still had to obey the orders of parents and matchmakers, and free love was rare. As "Meng said: "If you don't wait for your parents' orders, the words of the matchmaker will peep into the holes, and you will obey each other over the wall, and your parents and people will be cheap." ”。 Like Zuo Gongxian, it is already avant-garde enough.

stopped making fun of him at the moment, invited him to sit down in a chair and made another cup of hot tea and handed it over. After he calmed down a little, Sun Yuanqi asked across the coffee table: "The great Western poet Goethe said, "Which boy is not in love, and which girl is not pregnant with spring1." It's normal for a young man to fall in love with a woman. At noon today, you asked me to be a matchmaker, I wonder if you were impulsive, or thoughtful? …”

Zuo Gong raised his head first, then quickly lowered his head, and muttered: "I wanted to say it a long time ago, but I didn't dare to say it........."

It seems that what he said at noon was really "drunk and courageous"......

"Before that, I must first make it clear that Lao Zhao's family is a pure white family, and they fled to Beijing after the disaster in Shandong a few years ago. It just so happened that I wasn't married at the time and couldn't do a lot of things, so I asked them to help. To this day, I still accept their affection. ”。 Although in the Yongzheng period, the untouchable rank has been abolished, but the society is still very discriminatory against [.8384 to provide the fastest update] to sell themselves into slavery, and there are obstacles to marrying women and daughters, so Sun Yuanqi pointed out this.

After that, Sun Yuanqi asked again: "Then will your parents agree to this?" ”。

"My parents have been urging me to get married for a long time, and they will agree! Zuo Gongxian raised his head, "I really like her, really, even if my parents don't agree with me, I ............"

As he spoke, he was a little lacking in confidence.

Sun Yuanqi had a rough idea in his heart and said: "Now it's just that you like Jinghui, what will happen to Jinghui and her family, I don't know yet." I'll have to ask before I can get back to you. What do you think? ”。

Zuo Gongxian nodded: "Thank you, sir." ”。

After dinner, Sun Yuanqi took advantage of the moonlight to take a walk, walked all the way out of Jingshi University, and came to the small courtyard of the Zhao family outside the school. The five members of the Zhao family had just finished eating, and they were sitting in the courtyard eating watermelon, when they saw Sun Yuanqi knocking on the door, the family immediately lost the things in their hands and ran to the door to greet them. Lao Zhao thought there was something wrong, and asked repeatedly: "Master, do you have any important orders?" ”。

Sun Yuan smiled and said: "I drank a little more wine at noon, and I still had some alcohol at night, so I took advantage of the moonlight to go out for a walk, and I ended up here." Please don't be surprised by the disturbances! ”。

Lao Zhao suddenly smiled from ear to ear: "It's rare that the master has time to come out for a walk!" If you can come to my old Zhao's house, it is the green smoke on the ancestral grave of my family, if you want to say anything else, I don't know what to do! In the past, in my hometown in Shandong, even the county officials who were on errands would not go to my house to sit in the village. Who would have thought that now they can come bigger than the prefect's lords and officials, isn't this the green smoke on the ancestral tomb? Come on, come on, come on, please come to the house! ”。

While letting Sun Yuanqi go to the courtyard, he also shouted: "Jinghui, hurry up and wipe the bamboo chairs in the courtyard!" Jing Fan, don't go to fetch water and splash the yard, so that the old man can enjoy the coolness! Jing Xing, what are you doing there? Go pick the best watermelon, use the well water to town, cut and cure the hangover with the master! ”。

The two sons and one daughter in the family were suddenly called around by Lao Zhao. (To be continued.)
