"Mom, you're calling too late, aren't you?"

It was none other than Chen Jie's mother Lu Guoping, who was far away in the south.

Lu Guoping has always been very concerned about Chen Jie's academic performance, every time the mid-term final exam is over, she will always call to care about it, Chen Jie also told her about the math league, according to Lu Guoping's habits, this call should arrive after the test at noon, I never thought that it would be delayed until now, so Chen Jie asked.

"Mom has been doing a lot lately, no, as soon as the meeting is over, won't Mom call over?" Lu Guoping is used to being strong, and he doesn't like to apologize or explain, even if this person is his son.

Lu Guoping changed his words and said: "Besides, my mother didn't call you, so you don't know to take the initiative to report the situation to my mother?" ”

Chen Jie looked at his watch at this time, and said in his heart that his mother had really worked hard, it was 10 o'clock in the evening on Saturday, and he didn't expect that he was still in a meeting, so he replied half-jokingly:

"You had your time full, how do I know when you're free and when you're not? If I don't pick the right call, and I'm angry, I can't be innocent and counted? ”

Lu Guoping heard that his words were tingling, and scolded with a smile: "Stinky boy, how can your mother's temper be so bad as you say?" Then he changed his doting tone and said, "Son, how is it, do you miss your mother?" ”

Chen Jieguang felt embarrassed when he heard this kind of question, how could he answer it, so he prevaricated: "Mom, how old I am, can we stop asking this kind of question in the future......

Lu Guoping sighed helplessly: "Other people's sons are all related to their mothers, I think you are about to forget your mother, alas...... I knew this was the case, and I should have given birth to a girl back then. ”

Chen Jiexin said that if you hadn't separated from my father, you might have a sister, of course, it was not good to say this in person.

Chen Jie changed the topic and talked about the exam: "Mom, you don't care about my exam results?" ”

How many years has Lu Guoping cared about the test results, and the results are similar, she said:

"Your exam, it's not your mother who said, the second thousand-year-old! You can't just jump on a spark and fight for the first place! ”

Chen Jie was also very embarrassed, he smiled, and said apologetically: "Mom, don't say the first this time, the second is ...... hanging."

Lu Guoping's voice immediately opened and asked, "Son, what do you mean?" There is no surprise, and I will give my mother a scare! ”

Lu Guoping was angry, that wasn't fun, Chen Jie hurriedly explained the particularity of the three grades of the league to participate, and then hurriedly avoided the topic and said:

"Mom, are you coming back this time? You haven't been back since my dad and I moved to a new house. ”

As soon as she heard this, Lu Guoping became angry, only to hear her teasing:

"Don't mention your new home, how many times have I told your dad, I don't object to you living closer to the school, but you have to pick a better community!"

"Xinmin Yuan is so noisy, and the property is not good. Your dad boasted that he made money by trading stocks, and he couldn't even afford to live in a Chen Mansion for so many years, right?! ”

As mentioned before, the two closest communities to Huaqiang No. 1 Middle School are Xinmin Garden and Chen Mansion.

Xinminyuan is a demolition and resettlement community, with a large number of rental houses, because of the low threshold for moving in, it is inevitable that there will be a mixture of fish and dragons.

The Chen Mansion is a real high-end residential area, which is full of villas with independent courtyards, and there are few residents in the community, so it must not make a fuss, plus the independent courtyard, even if the neighbors' homes are very quiet, it is difficult to disturb each other, which is most suitable for high school students like Chen Jie.

Therefore, as long as the conditions at home are met, parents will definitely give priority to choosing this community to prepare their children for the college entrance examination.

Lu Guoping also strongly asked the father and son to live in the Chen Mansion at the beginning, of course, this matter was mainly discussed between Lu Guoping and Chen Guogang.

Lu Guoping is a person who pays attention to the quality of life and mood, she feels that she didn't talk about it if she didn't have conditions before, but now that she has the conditions, of course she wants to improve her life.

But Chen Guogang's temperament is closer to the older generation of proletariat, even if he himself has a little nervous breakdown, he still likes the fireworks life of the common people.

In fact, the formation of two people's temperament is also related to their growth environment from childhood to adulthood.

Lu Guoping was born in the city, and in her childhood memories, because of the small space at home and the limited space in the public corridor, the neighbors would often fight for the public aisle, and whoever won the battle could put their idle items in the aisle.

But the beaten family was not reconciled, so they always had to do something with the winner's idle belongings, and over time, the neighborhood relationship in their corridor became very bad.

Therefore, in the depths of Lu Guoping's heart, neighbors are a very terrifying existence for her, and it was not until she grew up and became independent that this fear turned into a kind of disgust, which led to her having a special complex for the villa house with a single house.

Chen Guogang has lived in the countryside since he was a child, how could the countryside at that time have such good conditions now, everyone was so poor, and the information at that time was very closed, and the so-called "fashionable" concepts outside had not yet reached the countryside, so the rural people at that time were very simple.

When Chen Guogang was a child, his family conditions could be said to be the poorest among the neighbors, and even eating was a problem when it was the most serious, but at that time, people were simple-minded, and there were not so many defenses between people, and the ideas between neighbors were also very simple:

It's not easy, just help if you can. So when Chen Guogang was a child, he often had a meal for the east family and a meal for the west family, so he stumbled and grew up.

Chen Guogang, who grew up in this environment, has a deep understanding of neighborhood relations, and it is precisely because of this that he always tells Chen Jie that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors.

Because of this, when he discussed with Lu Guoping, he was very opposed to Chen Jie going to live in the villa, because in Chen Guogang's eyes, Chen Jie was still in the growth period, and Chen Jie's personality was born not very fond of dealing with people, so put him in the villa now, so wouldn't it be early to let him get out of the masses? !

Due to different points of view, the two of them argued about this matter for a long time.

The reasons Chen Guogang said were his true thoughts, but Lu Guoping thought that this was an excuse because Chen Guogang had no conditions to let Chen quit Chen's excuse.

And although Lu Guoping's reason for letting Chen quit staying in Chen's Mansion makes sense, Chen Guogang always feels that she has a deeper reason, so he feels that Lu Guoping is not honest.

Chen Guogang is a person who has a lot to say, including his upbringing, his feelings for his neighbors, and his views on Chen Jie's growth, he told Lu Guoping unreservedly.

In fact, he can also truthfully explain his current economic situation, but he just doesn't like the kind of disdain that Lu Guoping looks down on him in his bones, no matter what Chen Guogang says, Lu Guoping can finally be attributed to the reason that he is incapable.

This incident has always made Chen Guogang angry, so whether it is out of male self-esteem or the anger of the two of them, Chen Guogang has never mentioned his economic situation, he feels that he is obviously living up to the sky, and he doesn't need to prove anything to you Lu Guoping!

And Lu Guoping is a typical strong woman, she doesn't like to expose the fragile side of her heart, even if this person is Chen Guogang.

If she said the psychological shadow she had on her neighbors when she was a child, maybe the negative impact of these experiences could be mitigated through communication, of course, it was just maybe, so Lu Guoping didn't want to gamble, and she didn't bother to gamble.

This is not only because Lu Guoping is strong, but also because of the extreme uneasiness in her bones, in case Chen Guogang's reaction to her is not what she wants, then this wound will not only not heal but will deepen, and now the depth of this wound Lu Guoping has adapted to it, so she doesn't care if it can heal or not, as long as it doesn't deepen further.

The emperor is far away, as long as Lu Guoping can't convince him, then Chen Guogang will definitely come according to his own way.

It's just that in this way, Lu Guoping quit, she is very strong, and Chen Guogang's decision aroused the uneasiness in her heart, so in the end of the conversation, she naturally spoke much more directly, at that time she insisted that Chen Jie move to the Chen Mansion, and added that whether it is bought or rented, the money for this house will be paid by her.

Chen Guogang was not happy when he heard it, and said in his heart, why can't you figure out that this is not a matter of money at all, why do you always have to talk about things with money?!

In the past, you made it clear that you buried me, but now you start turning around and teasing me again, it's not over?! Chen Guogang ignored her, paid the rent of Xinmin Yuan for three years the next day, and moved in a few days.

Chen Guogang is obviously an ancient and innocent temper, but he doesn't know what's going on, but he always gets angry when he talks to Lu Guoping.

It is precisely in this way that Lu Guoping will show great displeasure when Chen Jie talks about moving to a new house, but the reason why Lu Guoping has not come back is not only angry, but also too busy recently.

After all, the third quarter is about to end, in order to make the company's financial report look better, the whole company has been working overtime to catch up with the performance recently, and Lu Guoping has to take the lead.

Chen Jie is used to Lu Guoping's ridicule of Chen Guogang, he is too lazy to answer this kind of talk now, and said in his heart that the two of you should handle the affairs of the two of you yourself, I am too lazy to be this peacemaker.

Chen Jie skipped the conversation and asked directly: "Don't talk about this, then will you come back at eleven?" ”

Although the third quarter is about to end, the fourth quarter is about to begin, and Lu Guoping has recently organized the company to plan for the fourth quarter.

Therefore, this eleventh long holiday, Lu Guoping knows very well that she can't go back, but she really hasn't seen Chen Jie for a long time, her love son is heartfelt, and this concern is always there.

Lu Guoping said: "Son, you haven't been to your mother's side for a long time, if this eleven has nothing to do, come to your mother." ”
