Chapter 45: Gaps and Chasms

On this day, Yu Chuan and Qu Yingying took dozens of people to climb the mountain, especially with three children, and they were so tired that they choked.

Xiaobao was the weakest in his body and walked very slowly, so Cheng Ke accompanied him all the way and pressed on the tail of the team. Qu Yingying didn't expect to climb up at all, so she just took Xiaobao out to exercise, breathe fresh air, and bask in the sun. It's just that she was very surprised to see that Cheng Ke was fully equipped, as if he was doing a trick.

Cheng Ke's mountaineering bag was full of things that Xiaobao needed, and when he was thirsty, he brought a kettle, filled with warm water; When you are tired, you bring a small cushion, you can sit on the stone, not afraid of cold and wet; If you sweat, you brought a dry towel, a small one on your back, and a big one to wipe your sweat; I'm out of energy, so get a piece of chocolate...... also handed Qu Yingying an orange and a bottle of water from time to time.

"Aren't you tired of having so many things in your bag?" Qu Yingying said strangely.

"Such a small hill, this is called traveling lightly. Besides, let's walk slowly, and we're not tired at all. Cheng Ke said with a smile.

Qu Yingying looked at Xiaobao holding an orange, eating it sweetly, and her cheeks were still flushed with the red after the luck, and asked softly, "Why do you bring so many things?" I didn't expect that the first time I took Xiaobao out to climb the mountain, I wasn't prepared at all. ”

"You're underestimating our Xiaobao's abilities, aren't you, Xiaobao?" Cheng Ke saw Xiaobao coming over and interacted with him with a smile.

"Well, my mother doesn't like sports herself, and she always doesn't let me go out to play." Xiaobao pouted and said indistinctly.

"Okay, let's have lunch on the mountainside today, wait and see who goes to the place to eat first, and don't ask Uncle Cheng for help." Qu Yingying shrugged her eyebrows and said.

Xiaobao stuffed the last petal of oranges into his mouth, clapped his hands and said as he walked forward: "Okay, then my mother can't ask Uncle Cheng for help." ”

There were company colleagues who stopped to rest in front of them, and when they saw Xiaobao and Qu Yingying walking up slowly, they smiled and beckoned: "Xiaobao, are you tired?" Do you want my brother to carry you? ”

How do you know that Xiaobao looked at the young man and said, "Brother, I don't want you to carry it, you are too thin, it seems that you are thinner than me......"

"Being thin doesn't delay my brother carrying you."

Xiaobao replied with great sympathy: "Brother, if you really have the strength to carry me, you won't fall on the tail of the team......"

For a while, several female colleagues who were resting in front of them, as well as Qu Yingying and Cheng Ke, were all laughed out loud by Xiaobao, and the male colleague scratched his head with embarrassment and said, "I'm afraid that these sisters will be left behind, and they need to carry a bag or something......"

Xiaobao looked at Qu Yingying with a look of disbelief and asked, "Mom, is what this brother said true?" But the one who can protect in the back shouldn't be like Uncle Cheng Ke, so that he will have a sense of security? ”

Qu Yingying didn't know how to answer this, Cheng Ke touched Xiaobao's head with a smile and said: "When my uncle was young, he was as thin as this brother, but he could also carry a sick student on his back and go over two mountain beams to see a doctor......

Xiaobao nodded with a relieved face when he heard this: "So thinness and strength don't have much to do with each other, right?" ”

Cheng Ke thought for a while, shook his head and said: "It's not like this, it's just a lot of things, the important thing is perseverance and perseverance, in fact, my uncle was also very tired at that time, and once he fell, he might not be able to get up, but he just insisted that if I didn't continue to walk, that student might die......"

"Well, Xiaobao understands, that is, he has set a goal, that is, he has to have perseverance and perseverance to go on, right?" Xiaobao looked at Cheng Ke and nodded with a smile, and said to the thin male colleague: "Brother, my mother and I are going to compete, if you carry me, I will lose, thank you, I'll go first, goodbye!" ”

Qu Yingying followed behind and said to the young people: "Look at you guys, you are young, your physical strength is poor, it seems that our company will have to organize this kind of sports team building in the future, otherwise once you get busy, your physical strength will not be able to keep up, which is not a good thing......"

The few immediately jumped up and shouted: "No, Mr. Qu, let's not be athletes, can't we do it......"

"What do you do that don't require physical strength?" Qu Yingying didn't look back, and continued: "Hurry up, Mr. Yu is waiting for you in front, you have to go up to the top of the mountain and come down for lunch, don't wait for ......."

Wu Wei panted and followed Yu Chuan, only to see her holding Dabao alone, and hurriedly asked, "Teacher Yu, where is Xiaobao?" ”

"Xiaoya followed, in front, it is estimated that she has run a long way." Yu Chuan said with a smile.

"Amazing, did that Xiaoya know you very well before?" Wu Wei gossiped.

Yu Chuan glanced at Wu Wei and said, "Well, I'll hand her over to you, take it well." She is also very familiar with Teacher Zhang, if you are too busy, you can explain Teacher Zhang's mess to her more. In the future, the focus of Ms. Zhang's work will be transferred to China, if her work team abroad does not come, we have to reorganize a team for her, this matter will be talked about later, and we will have to discuss it carefully. ”

Wu Wei's heart was hot when he heard this, and he nodded: "Let's rest and drink saliva, Dabao, Auntie has lemon tea here, do you want a bottle?" ”

Dabao found a stone on the side of the road and sat down, took the lemon tea in Wu Wei's hand and said, "Thank you, Auntie!" ”

"No thanks! Why didn't Mr. Zhang come today? Wu Wei continued to ask.

"She's got guests coming. What about your teacher Qu, have you seen it? Yu Chuan unscrewed the cap of the mineral water bottle and took a sip of water.

"In the back, Xiaobao walks slowly, but I see that Teacher Cheng seems to take good care of her, is that the teacher Qu found for us?" Wu Wei blinked and joked.

Yu Chuan was choked by Wu Wei's words and laughed: "You ghost girl, master, hahaha, you were heard by your teacher Qu, see how she cleans you up." ”

Wu Wei looked innocent: "You are my master, what is the name of the master who is not called the master?" ”

Dabao's eyes widened, and he looked at Wu Wei and said with a smile: "Aunt Wu, then my father is also your teacher?" ”

Yu Chuan laughed so much that he couldn't speak for a while, and nodded at the big one in front of him and said silently: "You two, be creative!" ”

Wu Wei said with a narrow face: "Just rush at my idea, you can reveal a little bit to me." ”

"How can you gossip like that?" Yu Chuan laughed so much that tears came out and pointed at Wu Weidao.

"Isn't I concerned, you said that Teacher Qu is a good person, and she has had a hard time all these years, so I feel that there should be someone to share with her." Wu Wei sighed.

"You girl, you haven't married yet, and it's not easy for the halfway husband and wife to share the children in front of you." Yu Chuan whispered.

"Mom, I see that Uncle Cheng Ke is very good, and he is very attentive to Xiaobao, which is no worse than my dad is to us. The key is that Uncle Cheng Ke has a good temper, always smiles like that, and is so patient with us. "Dabao has turned ten years old, and girls at this age have gradually begun to be sensible.

Yu Chuan straightened his daughter's bangs scattered in front of her forehead and said: "Some things are easy to do for a while, but it is actually quite difficult to persist for a lifetime." Hey, you little ones, don't get involved in the affairs of adults. ”

"Mom, I know, I didn't get involved, I just told you, my brother and I and Xiaobao all like Uncle Cheng, especially Xiaobao, Xiaobao said that it would be nice if he had such a father, he doesn't remember what his father looks like......" Dabao's words made Yu Chuan and Wu Wei a little sour.

Yu Chuan is the most aware of Qu Yingying's failed marriage.

Back then, Qu Yingying suddenly informed her and Zhang Shuqiu that she was going to get married. When the two of them arrived in the capital, the wedding was very lively, but the two of them were familiar with Qu Yingying, and they did not find a trace of the bride's shyness and joy in her eyes, as if the marriage was an ordinary dinner.

It was Song Wei, who had chased Qu Yingying for so many years, and finally achieved a positive result and married someone home, which seemed very excited.

Yu Chuan and Zhang Shuqiu also sighed in private, find someone who loves them more, even if the feelings are not so deep, they will not be bad in the future. Moreover, Song Wei is a native of Beijing, her family conditions are very superior, and her job is not bad, financially, Qu Yingying will not have a hard time.

Song Wei is a senior brother who is two years higher than Qu Yingying, and has been circling around Qu Yingying since she entered the school. Qu Yingying annoyed him so much at that time.

Once on a Friday afternoon, after class, Qu Yingying followed Yu Chuan and Zhang Shuqiu. Although Yu Chuan and Zhang Shuqiu share a bedroom with her, because they often go in and out together, they have a general friendship with Qu Yingying. Yu Chuan asked puzzledly: "If we don't go back to the dormitory, you ......"

"I know you two don't go back to the dormitory, did you two rent a house outside? Can you count me as one? I don't want to go back to my dorm room, and I don't have a place to go," Qu Yingying replied weakly, her eyes full ......of anticipation.

Zhang Shuqiu and Yu Chuan glanced at each other, and knew in their hearts that it must be the Song prince again, Zhang Shuqiu smiled and said, "That's okay, you can go with us." ”

Yu Chuan smiled and took Qu Yingying's hand, pulled her up and walked out with Zhang Shuqiu, and said with a smile as he walked: "Aren't you afraid that the two of us are going to do something bad?" ”

"I, I heard what you two said, and I also want to practice Erwai. And you two have such good grades, how can you do bad things. Qu Yingying said in a low voice.

Zhang Shuqiu and Yu Chuan immediately understood that this was also a person who knew in their hearts that he didn't say it, and he was a person worth dealing with.

Qu Yingying followed Zhang Shuqiu and Yu Chuan into Zhang Shuqiu's house, only to find that this didn't look like a rental house at all, and asked weakly: "How much is this house a month?" I'm afraid of me, there is not enough money. ”

Yu Chuan smiled brightly, Zhang Shuqiu took out a pair of plastic slippers from the shoe cabinet, handed them to Qu Yingying and said, "Let's go out in the evening and buy you some daily necessities, this is my own house, don't worry, don't need money." ”

"Well, it's not good...... Qu Yingying said with some hesitation.

Yu Chuan changed his shoes and said as he walked inside: "Then what are you going to do?" I felt that before I locked the door of the bedroom, the eldest son of Song would not leave. ”

"Don't pay attention to her, it's okay, you can live in peace, anyway, there is an empty room." Zhang Shuqiu said with a smile.

Qu Yingying followed Yu Chuan and Zhang Shuqiu to know the difference between a top student and an honor student, and stuck out her tongue countless times and said: "Fortunately, I didn't have a hot head back then, and I have to go to the High School Attached to Jiang University, otherwise I would have no way to live." ”

At this time, Yu Chuan, who returned to get a first-class scholarship, would answer her with a smile: "It's not so terrible, the first and second places in the Chinese subject of Jiang University are in front of you, don't you live well." ”

"You two are like this, why do you want to come to foreign Chinese? Didn't Jingda rush to ask for it? ”

"For the scholarship......" Yu Chuan squeezed his eyes and smiled.

At this time, Yu Chuan realized that between himself and Zhang Shuqiu, there was not a gap between the first and second places in liberal arts, and the first places in his past were only given to her by Zhang Shuqiu in order to let her receive the highest scholarship. Zhang Shuqiu's interest has long been no longer in the second foreign world, they practice the second foreign language, she is a sparring partner, she has already run to the third foreign and the fourth foreign school.

If you want to say that girls who are about the same, there will always be some thoughts about comparing each other. But Yu Chuan, Qu Yingying and Zhang Shuqiu have been together for a long time, and they found that some gaps are beyond reach. You can also try to jump over the small ditch, the gap between the mountains and the mountains, that is, just look at it, and put it there as an example, but it can inspire yourself to move forward.

What's more, Zhang Shuqiu's kindness to them made them fully feel that this was like a home, and even Qu Yingying, who did not lack family warmth, was reluctant to give up on the warmth of this family.

Yu Chuan said to Qu Yingying like this: "Xiaoqiu is not a human, she is a god, she skipped a grade when she was in high school, let's run after her, it's too tired, let's just be normal people." ”

Qu Yingying nodded very sympathetically and said, "You said that she didn't come to our school for a scholarship, why did she come to our school?" ”

"She said she was here to keep me company." Yu Chuan pouted.

"That's the other way around, isn't it? You were in the same class? Qu Yingying smiled and said.

"Well, we're still at the same table."

"This companion is doing very well, she has traveled all over the world, and we are still working here as tutors to earn money......

Later, Zhang Shuqiu and the girl from the other capital in their dormitory got two exchange places and went abroad, leaving Yu Chuan and Qu Yingying as companions. Both of them are people who are reluctant to go back to their hometowns regardless of winter and summer vacations or holidays, and the two of them are companions of each other, working to make money, encouraging each other, and growing together.

Later, when he graduated, Yu Chuan returned to Jiangcheng, and Qu Yingying stayed in the capital.

However, half a year after graduation, Yu Chuan and Zhang Shuqiu didn't expect what the reason for Qu Yingying's earth-shaking change in Song Wei was.

But in any case, if a dead friend wants to get married, he can't hold back, so he can only send rich red envelopes and real blessings.

According to Qu Yingying's description later, in fact, in the past few years, her and Song Wei's lives were plain and casual, and they lived well. Song Wei continued to study for a doctorate, and went abroad for a year after marriage. In addition to work, Qu Yingying continued her studies in the third foreign language. The husband and wife, one is busy with studying, the other is busy with work and study, and they can be regarded as getting together less and leaving more, and they have never had children.
