Chapter 4: Fists and Cotton
Ning Ye looked at Cathy, who was indulging in infinite memories, and then at Zhang Shuqiu, who didn't know what he was thinking, and suddenly said: "Jiang Da's osmanthus fragrance is really overwhelming, and there is no place where the fragrance is so imposing. ”
Cathy suddenly looked at Zhang Shuqiu with a smile and said, "How do you say this sentence in Spanish?" ”
Seeing Zhang Shuqiu smile but not answer, he continued: "It can be seen that there are some words in Chinese, which can only be understood but cannot be spoken. ”
"Your level of Chinese, in fact, you don't need a translator at all." Zhang Shuqiu said with a smile.
"Thankfully, I wasn't so confident today, and I was honored to meet you, a translator like no other!" Cathy walked slowly forward as he said to Zhang Shuqiu.
Ning Ye just wrote down the name of the book: "Running Wild", I don't know what kind of book it is, it will make someone as magical as Zhang Shuqiu feel magical.
The three of them entered from the East Gate and walked slowly along the central axis, passing by the International Exchange Center, the School of International Relations, the School of Foreign Languages, and the Library......
The school is very big, time flies, and when they get to the west gate, Ning Ye said to the two of them: "I invite you to drink the best coffee in Jiangda!" ”
The best coffee in Jiangda is the Banxia coffee that has been open outside the west gate of Jiangda for many years, and when most Chinese were not used to drinking coffee in the past. It is said that after a foreign student came to China, he fell in love with Chinese medicine and didn't want to go back, and then because he couldn't drink coffee, his family was in the coffee business, so he opened this café.
Spaniards have always had the habit of drinking afternoon tea, Cathy readily agreed, smiled very happily, and even asked a little gossipy: "That Banxia, did you become a Chinese medicine doctor?" ”
Ning Ye smiled dumbly: "No, but the coffee business is doing well." ”
"Is the owner of that Banxia café really called Banxia?" Zhang Shuqiu asked in surprise.
"Miss Zhang also knows about Banxia? Could it be that you also graduated from Jiang University? Cathy asked, somewhat surprised.
"Is Director Ning a graduate of Jiang University?" Zhang Shuqiu asked.
"I'm not, but I graduated from the same school as you," he said, pointing to the high school attached to the west gate: "Jiangda High School, right, the school where you graduated from high school." ”
Zhang Shuqiu looked at Ning Ye with a surprised face, Cathy smiled playfully, and looked at Zhang Shuqiu and Ning Ye. Ke Ning Ye said this and didn't say any more, and walked straight into the Banxia Cafe.
Cathy satisfied her curiosity and met Banxia herself. It turned out that Ning Ye had an appointment with Banxia, and Banxia was very happy to see him. Banxia politely greeted Cathy and Zhang Shuqiu, and when she looked at Zhang Shuqiu head-on, she suddenly paused with some confusion, looked at it seriously, and then asked, "Miss Zhang is so familiar, have we met somewhere?" Seeing the expressions on everyone's faces, he immediately added: "I mean really, not a pick-up." ”
Ning Ye suddenly laughed, Zhang Shuqiu blinked and smiled: "I have been to this coffee shop before, and when I was studying here, this coffee shop had already opened. ”
"You are also a graduate of Jiang University?" Banxia's curiosity is obviously heavy.
Zhang Shuqiu obviously didn't expect that Banxia was actually this kind of character who broke the casserole and asked the end, and he didn't know what to say, but he heard Ning Ye's voice next to him: "She is a student of the High School Affiliated to Jiang University." ”
Banxia frowned at Ning Ye suspiciously, and suddenly shouted exaggeratedly, "Oh......"
Obviously, seeing Ning Ye's brows furrowed, he immediately converted into French: "Is it her?" The one you've been asking me for? Oh my God, how did you find that? The photo you gave me is 108,000 miles away from this real person, you ......"
Cathy watched Banxia's exaggerated movements and hasty language switching, and knew that the secret that they couldn't hear must be related to the translation lady in front of her, but she was very comfortable to see through it without saying anything, just smiling and picking up the coffee, but in that smile, no matter how she looked at it, there was a little playfulness: she seemed to remember that the title page of "Running Wild" introduced that the translator Zhang Shuqiu should also be proficient in French.
Yes, of course Zhang Shuqiu can understand it, French is her major in college, and she later went to France to study. But she reacted beyond Cathy's imagination, as if she didn't understand, and also picked up her coffee and took a sip.
Ning Ye was asked on the face by Banxia, but he still just smiled and didn't speak, but Banxia didn't relent: "Do you find it and tell me?" Do you know how much time I spent inquiring? I just found some clues, only to find out that the world is actually quite small, Li Yun is her cousin, her aunt's son. ”
Speaking, Banxia suddenly turned his face and asked Zhang Shuqiu in Chinese, "Li Yun is your cousin, right?" ”
Over there, Ning Ye was choked on the spot by Banxia's words: when he and Li Yun were studying in the United States together, Li Yun went back and forth to France and Italy, and said that he went to see his sister, but he never thought that that sister was actually her.
Wait, Li Yun went to France to see her, she studied in France, she knew French......
Ning Ye suddenly felt very funny, Banxia was very funny, this scene was also very funny, and he had lived for more than 30 years, and he was actually the most funny one. couldn't help laughing, and said to Banxia: "I know that Li Yun has a younger sister who studied in France, majoring in French, and I heard that it is simultaneous interpretation. ”
Suddenly, he turned his head again, smiled more and said to Zhang Shuqiu: "Teacher Zhang, right?" ”
Seeing Banxia's expression that was about to explode, he immediately said: "Li Yun is in Jiangcheng, ask him to come out for a get-together, there is something to do today, let's make an appointment tomorrow!" ”
Banxia seemed to suddenly realize that he had messed up, and this scene was not the time to explain, so he pouted and reluctantly said goodbye.
Banxia left, the scene was suddenly quiet, Ning Ye thought that Zhang Shuqiu would ask something, who knew that she didn't say a word, as if she really didn't understand their French conversation just now, and continued to drink her coffee. Cathy looked out the window with her coffee, and suddenly sighed: "I like the autumn in Jiangcheng the most, just do nothing, drink a cup of coffee and look at the sky, I feel very beautiful!" ”
After drinking a cup of coffee, Cathy was happy and satisfied, Zhang Shuqiu felt that this scholar was very cute, he liked to be lively, and he was easily satisfied, simple and direct, no matter what her achievements were in the professional field, how many sides her personality had, at least there was such a side, like a child.
As for Ning Ye, it seemed that he didn't need to think about anything else, he just came at her with a clear purpose. Zhang Shuqiu has always had his own guidelines for such a purposeful man.
When Zhang Shuqiu returned to the hotel room, Yu Chuan was still lying in the same place where she left in the afternoon, and she immediately felt that something was wrong.
Zhang Shuqiu washed his face, sat on the side of Yu Chuan's lap with a towel, looked at her empty eyes, arched her and said, "I brought a box of expensive rot down, let's find a place to drink at night?" ”
According to the usual Yu Chuan, she will definitely jump to educate her, there will be a dinner party and a drinking party in the evening, don't think about going anywhere. But at this time, Yu Chuan just said listlessly: "I also want to drink." ”
"Are you going home today?"
"I don't want to go back, I don't want to go back......"
"Quarrel again? Or did Chen Jun's family make some moths? ”
"I'm so annoyed, I don't want to talk about it now, let me drink some wine later."
"What about that night?"
"We're not important people, we show up, we just slip away after the dinner party, and we don't go to the drinking party."
When Zhang Shuqiu heard this, his hand that was wiping skin care products on his face paused, like Yu Chuan, a motivated person who usually has been beaten with chicken blood every day, suddenly became so negative, this time I am afraid that this matter is not small, I have known each other for so many years, and it has only been three or five times.
"Where to drink?"
"I guess there's nothing at home now, or we will go to Lao Yan's house, and I'll send Sister Zhang a WeChat message later, the cubicle is very good."
"yes, I think it's pretty good, too. There is something to make a noise with you, that Director Ning, there is a high probability that he is coming at me. ”
The listless Yu Chuan was silent when he heard this, but suddenly sat up: "What's the matter?" He also went in the afternoon? ”
"Yes, put away your Ba Po spirit, I'm telling you now, I want you to wait a while to have a little bit of eyes, don't be stumped."
Yu Chuan turned his face and saw the Xiaoyao Pill on the small table, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Also, I am married like me, I have children and daughters, and I seem to have a complete life, but I can only live by eating Xiaoyao Pill, it is better to be single and happy." Saying that, he arched the arch of Zhang Shuqiu and said: "Pour a cup of hot water, I want to drink medicine." ”
"How's your nodule?" Zhang Shuqiu asked as he got up and poured water.
"It's no big deal, regular check-ups, report to Dr. Zhang every week, moxibustion and scraping, last time I went to do B ultrasound, one is gone, and the other two have become smaller." Yu Chuan opened the medicine bottle and began to count the pills.
"Tomorrow we will go to the hospital to see Xiaobao, Yingying estimates that she will lose weight again." Zhang Shuqiu handed the warm water to Yu Chuan.
Yu Chuan took the water, raised his head and drank the pill in his hand, and took a few sips of water and said, "If you want to say that Yingying is the most pitiful." As soon as these words came out, both of them were silent for a long time and did not speak, Yu Chuan sighed and shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Hey, what kind of fate do you say we are?" ”
Zhang Shuqiu raised his hand and patted Yu Chuan on the shoulder, revealing a gentle but firm smile: "It's okay, it's going to pass." Haven't they all come over for so many years? ”
Yu Chuan was silent, took a deep breath, rolled up his sleeves, and stood up: "Well, I'll go wash and tidy up your face, you change your clothes and be in the cupboard." ”
Yu Chuan and Zhang Shuqiu arrived fifteen minutes before the start of the dinner and sat down according to the arrangement. Yu Chuan kept greeting people in the midst of people, and Zhang Shuqiu only sat silently in his seat drinking water and looking at his mobile phone. When the banquet was opened, Zhang Shuqiu found out that the person sitting on the right hand was actually Ning Ye.
Zhang Shuqiu watched Ning Ye help her refill the cup that was almost empty, and was stunned and thanked her. Zhang Shuqiu glanced around the venue, Ning Ye seemed to understand her thoughts, and explained gently: "I'm just in charge of conference affairs, not the protagonist. ”
Zhang Shuqiu nodded, he was really smart. Yu Chuan returned to his seat, only to find that Ning Ye was actually sitting on the side, greeted with a smile, and wanted to say something, but thinking of Zhang Shuqiu's instructions, he swallowed it back.
Waiting for the table to open, the audience was staggered, Yu Chuan stepped on high heels and went to toast again, Zhang Shuqiu ate quietly, Ning Ye saw that she was eating very attentively, and asked with a soft smile: "You don't ask me, why are you looking for you?" ”
Zhang Shuqiu was stunned, swallowed the beef cubes in his mouth, and asked instead of answering: "Don't you have to toast?" ”
"I don't want to go, I just want you to know that I'm looking for you." Ning Ye was not led astray by her at all, and was obsessed with his topic.
Zhang Shuqiu took a sip of soup unhurriedly, nodded and said, "Okay, I know." However, can your position allow you to do as you like? ”
Ning Ye was suddenly laughed at angrily, this girl played a good cotton skill: Anyway, no matter what others do, she just won't accept it. But that's good, at least her resume says: single. Maybe it's just that she has no distractions, her resume can be so dazzling, and what she doesn't have on her resume seems to be even more dazzling, he casually searched in the online bookstore, and her translations are so many, and they involve at least seven or eight foreign languages.
Ning Ye really couldn't do what he wanted, and just as he was about to say something, someone came next to him to toast: "Director Ning, why are you sitting here, it makes me easy to find ......"
Zhang Shuqiu looked at the lively expression, smiled and glanced at Ning Ye, Ning Ye caught a glimpse of her smile, and his heart was itching with hatred, but he could only pick up the cup and smile at the visitor.
Yu Chuan came back from a circle, Zhang Shuqiu was already half-full, and when he saw Ning Ye surrounded by a wave of people, he winked at Yu Chuan in a good mood and left the table with his bag.
Yu Chuan greeted the people at the table again, and left the table quietly with his bag.
Ning Ye was holding a cup of tea while dealing with everyone, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Zhang Shuqiu and Yu Chuan slipping away separately. But I know in my heart that I can't do anything at this time, I can't do nothing yet, so I can't make that girl disgusted.
Yu Chuan and Zhang Shuqiu changed their clothes, went to the parking lot to pick up wine in the car, went out from the side door of the hotel parking lot, and arrived at Lao Yan's house. The store is still full of people, there are still queues outside, and business is surprisingly good. Zhang Hong was checking out at the bar, when she saw Zhang Shuqiu and Yu Chuan walking in, she hurriedly settled the account and walked out, leading the two into the cubicle in the back courtyard.
As soon as he entered the house, Zhang Hong said with a straight face: "Let's say first, I won't refund the money at noon, and you will come with me in the evening, and you won't come in the future." ”
Yu Chuan was a little sneering: "Okay, don't you invite the leader to dinner at noon, you can't show sincerity if you don't pay." In the evening, we will eat Sister Zhang's. ”
"That's pretty much it, what kind of wine do you mention? Do you still want to bring wine to me? What about laughing at me? Sister Zhang continued.
"It's because I love to drink this wine, Sister Zhang, you see, I brought it on purpose." Zhang Shuqiu replied with a smile.
Zhang Hong looked at the expensive rot and knew that Zhang Shuqiu liked it, so he didn't say much, but only instructed: "You two drink well, mention so much wine, you must want to drink, I don't ask anything, it's okay no matter how late it is, I will sleep next door with you Brother Yan at night, what do you want, if you drink too much, we will send it to the hotel." I'm going to serve you some food and drinks, and your brother Yan has prepared them. ”
As he spoke, he took the wine decanter again, opened the wine brought by Zhang Shuqiu, and poured the amber liquid into the transparent glass bottle, exuding a strong sweet fragrance......
