(Finale)

At 11:30 p.m. on April 30, Wan Yunhai and Lin Wei came to Nanjiang Wenhua Pioneer Park, found a good taste restaurant, and when they entered the door, they saw Wu Tiecheng at the door to greet them, pushed open the 006 private room, and saw Zhang Guolin, Niu Jiangping, Hu Fengyang, Wang Xiaolang, Chen Lianping, Gan Linglao, Yan Dong, Hu Yuhua, Xia Genyong, Huang Jianguo, Wan Yunhai clasped his fists with both hands, smiled and shook hands with his classmates one by one.

At the beginning of lunch, Wu Tiecheng raised his glass and said enthusiastically: "Welcome to Wan Yunhai and Lin Wei, let's clink glasses!" ”

The students all clinked glasses with a smile, Wan Yunhai got up and said: "I thank you students for your warm welcome, you eleven students, are all students of the preparatory group for this event, the division of labor is responsible, tomorrow, Hu Yuhua and I cooperate in poetry recitation, I wish the cooperation a success!" Especially Lin Wei and I respect your eleven classmates, hard work! I wish this gala a complete success! Cheers! I'll do it, you do whatever you want. ”

Wang Xiaolang is the chief planner of this classmate party, he drank dry, smiled and took the empty cup to show the classmates, "I accompanied Wan Yunhai to do it".

After graduating from Germany, he returned to China and set up a private foreign Chinese school in Nanjiang, devoted himself to education, and was very respectful of his classmates.

The classmates also respect Wu Tiecheng, atmospheric, but also temperamental, he has strong ability, set up a knitted underwear factory, due to the collapse of Hua'an knitted underwear factory, basically taken over by him, rebuilt the knitted underwear factory in the suburbs, with more than 1,000 employees.

Zhang Guolin pretended to be crazy, and drank it dry in one gulp, seeing Wan Yunhai's classmates on the scene, swimming in water, the aura is different, talking and laughing, he is a person who has seen the world, and brings laughter to his classmates.

The wine table was full of drinking masters, Xia Genyong, Niu Jiangping, Huang Jianguo, Wu Tiecheng and other classmates all drank dry, Zhang Guolin opened another bottle of five-star and four-special wine, and filled a glass of wine to the students who could drink, and he also filled a glass of liquor.

"I salute Wan Yunhai and Lin Wei alone, I wish you both happiness!"

Out of the etiquette of the scene, Wan Yunhai looked at Zhang Guolin and smiled, and replied: "Zhang Guolin has a lot of alcohol, you can drink, you have to take care of the old classmates, let's talk about it, okay?" ”

"No, you must drink this glass, Lin Wei's glass of red wine, you can watch it."

As soon as Zhang Guolin said this, the classmates knew that he was unbalanced, he was also a well-known figure in Nanjiang City, the owner of the Sihai Hotel, and now he got an errand in the factory run by Wu Tiecheng, he and Wan Yunhai have decades of festivals, and they have been married, more than ten years ago, the classmates in the Nanjiang Daily, have read the confession written by Zhang Guolin, Lin Wei can't stand it, and is about to have a seizure, and Wan Yunhai gently pressed her leg.

This is not Wan Yunhai back then, I saw Wan Yunhai get up, smile at him and say: "Old classmate Zhang Guolin, you and I, as well as old classmate Wu Tiecheng, are all little brothers, we grew up together in Hua'an since childhood, you look up to me, toast me, I just did it." ”

After saying this, Wan Yunhai drank it dry, showed the empty cup to the classmates, and then drank the red wine in Lin Wei's cup, he didn't blink his eyes, two glasses of wine went down, and he smiled with manly pride.

"Old classmate Zhang Guolin, you can feel free, there is no need to compare the high and low, you have to arrange the venue in the afternoon, there is something to do, don't take on big things."

It is still Wan Yunhai's old classmates who are atmospheric, calm-hearted, and take care of Zhang Guolin's old classmates, and the old classmates who are sitting here are moved by Wan Yunhai's magnanimous mind.

I don't know who came up with a sentence "When Zhang Guolin's old classmate was the boss of the Sihai Hotel, he practiced the amount of alcohol, and this bit of wine is a little KS for him." ”

Zhang Guolin's old classmate still had the courage to drink, and he drank it dry, and then took the empty cup to show his classmates, and smiled bitterly, which was very unnatural.

Wu Tiecheng's old classmate teased Qi Fen and said: "Wow, I didn't bring so much silver, and I won't be able to pay for it then." ”

"Hahaha..."

Caused the students to laugh, lunch ended in a friendly atmosphere, the students of the preparatory group, to see the scene of tomorrow's event, the arrangement is very good, the stage is surrounded by flowers, the banner reads "Nanjiang City No. 2 Middle School 76th High School 43rd Anniversary Gala", the stage set up a round table of 32 banquets.

Zhang Guolin's old classmate, not yet drunk, he said to Wan Yunhai: "This is the hall of the Cultural Pioneer Park, which can accommodate more than 1,000 people. ”

"I know, the renovation is very beautiful, choose this place, it is very good, there is an activity venue, and other workshops are also rebuilt very beautifully, and it has become the entrepreneurial point of each specialty of Nanjiang Cultural Pioneer Park."

Thirty years ago, Wan Yunhai was handcuffed from here, and spent six years in prison, he pursed his lips and smiled faintly, smiling at the grievances of the rivers and lakes, and never returned, disappearing.

Lin Wei observed Wan Yunhai's emotions and saw that he was very calm, just listening to Zhang Guolin's old classmate's explanation, nodding from time to time, with a smile on his face.

Across the middle of Shanghai Road, to the living area of Hua'an Knitting Underwear Factory, Zhang Guolin took Wan Yunhai, Lin Wei, Wu Tiecheng three classmates, to his current residence, the second floor of a building in the second district, into the room, he made four cups of tea, or the old style, tube building, built in the fifties of the last century, two rooms through, look at the furnishings inside, like a single residence, more than 30 years ago, this is his marriage room with Lin Wei.

Lin Wei sat in the room, silent, because of the male classmate, he drank liquor, the room was full of the smell of wine, and he drank enough, suddenly, Zhang Guolin lost control of his emotions, his hand was on the shoulder of Wan Yunhai's old classmate, he cried, a handful of snot and tears.

"Old classmate Wan Yunhai and old classmate Lin Wei, I'm really sorry for you two, this is all retribution, more than ten years ago, I didn't expect that the hospital made a big joke with me, diagnosed liver cancer, made me kind, let me scatter all my money, let me tell the truth about the unjust case of Wan Yunhai's old classmate, and let me write my confession, I caused him to go to prison for six years and separated from Lin Wei. After the two of you left in the hospital, I also suffered from six years in prison, two women left me, Luo Fang and her son died in a car accident, Lu Liping disappeared with her son, two sons, both are my own sons, I am now lonely and single, penniless, living in this broken house, let me regret it for the rest of my life, don't do some bad things in life, be a good person, love a person, can't force it, everything is a cause and effect, good is rewarded, evil is rewarded, not not reported, the time has not come, the time has come to report. ”

The silence in the room was terrible, only the voice of Zhang Guolin crying was heard, or Wan Yunhai broke the silence and said heavily: "You said this today, it means that you have woken up, this matter is over, don't mention it again, memories are painful, why bother, look forward, about Lu Liping and her son, it is possible to find it, don't be discouraged, as long as you take the mother and son to heart, maybe God will still help you, the concept of Buddhism, everything has a cause and effect relationship, in this world, life is short, do more good deeds, Life has its own light and blessings, I thank you for your later awakening, if it were not for your awakening, there would be no innocence I have today, we are old classmates, or friends, I will say this, we are gone, you stay. ”

Coming out of Zhang Guolin's classmate, at more than four o'clock in the afternoon, Wu Tiecheng still admired Wan Yunhai's personality and broad-mindedness.

Hua'an living area, are all houses in the fifties of the last century, dilapidated, because of the closure of the enterprise, Hua'an people have a difficult life, see an eighty-year-old man, picking up rags by the garbage can, difficult to move.

Wu Tiecheng's classmate said to Wan Yunhai: "This old man is Zhang Guolin's father, his wife has long passed away, do you know him?" It is also a single residence. ”

Wan Yunhai looked at the old man, did not speak, and felt a little sympathy in his heart, the leader of the rebels back then, he was famous in Nanjiang City, and he was very majestic, this is really retribution, unkempt white hair, pancreas flowing out of his mouth, dirty, a little senile dementia, and the wind and candles are in his last years.

Walking to the parking lot of the Cultural Pioneer Park, Wan Yunhai held the hand of Wu Tiecheng's old classmate, smiled and said, "Old classmate, thank you for your reception today, see you tomorrow." ”

"Thanks for what, see you tomorrow"

Wu Tiecheng found two substitute drivers, he got into a Toyota car and left, Wan Yunhai and Lin Wei got into an Audi car, and when they returned home, Lin Wei asked Wan Yunhai: "My dear, what do you think of seeing so many classmates today, especially Zhang Guolin?" ”

"When I was a student, most of the outstanding classmates mixed very well, looking at their (her) temperament, their faces were delicate, and they did not see the wind and frost, except for Zhang Guolin, it was really fate, the ancients said that three years old look big, seven years old look old, Buddhism's concept of cause and effect, in line with the mandate of heaven."

Lin Wei laughed when he heard it, "Idealist, okay, don't talk about it, continue to cook dumplings at night, you are half a Dongshan person, you have the gene to eat flour, eat dumplings." ”

"Okay, whatever."

On May 1st, the morning in the south of the Yangtze River, full of spring, the weather was very good, the blue sky, drifting a few white clouds, Wan Yunhai drove to Nanjiang Entrepreneurship Cultural Park (formerly Hua'an Knitting Underwear Factory), parked the car, just got off the car, and met Zhang Guolin on the side.

"Zhang Guolin, good morning! I didn't get drunk yesterday, but by such a coincidence, I met you again. ”

He saw that it was Wan Yunhai's classmate, Zhang Guolin smiled unnaturally, the two old classmates shook hands, Wan Yunhai smiled excitedly on his face, as if nothing had happened, the scars of the past were forgotten, he didn't see a single white hair on his head, his face was still beautiful, he didn't see the wind and frost of the years, and his handsomeness still exuded.

Zhang Guolin's back is a little hunched, his skin is dark, his head is full of white hair, like a person who has experienced vicissitudes, the years are deeply engraved on his face, he glanced at Wan Yunhai's Audi car, the car license plate has Lu character first, knowing that it is the Dongshan license plate, and seeing Wan Yunhai's blessed face, his heart is very unpleasant, only from meeting Wan Yunhai in the hospital, more than ten years have passed.

Lin Wei saw Zhang Guolin's face and guessed that he had definitely been unsatisfactory for more than ten years, the scenery of the year was gone, and her face was full of sadness, out of etiquette, she still greeted Zhang Guolin: "Old classmate Zhang Guolin, hello!" Nice to meet you. ”

Knowing that Lin Wei said something against his will, he could only force a smile in response, "Well, hello!" Stretched out her hand to shake Lin Wei's hand, Lin Wei was smart, she didn't want to shake hands with him, she felt disgusted, she raised her hand and pointed ahead, and said with a smile: "Niu Jiangping is here, Chen Lianping, Xia Genyong are also here, and there are many students in front." ”

Wan Yunhai and Lin Wei stepped forward and shook hands one by one, the old classmates who had not seen each other for forty-three years were very happy to meet today, Chen Lianping warmly hugged Lin Wei, and everyone stood together and talked cordially.

At 9 o'clock, under the arrangement of the preparatory group of students, the 76th high school students of Nanjiang No. 2 Middle School signed on the big white cloth, paid 200 yuan for the activity, and all took a group photo in front of the statue of Chairman Mao in the Entrepreneurship Cultural Park.

The 43rd anniversary of the 76th high school students of Nanjiang No. 2 Middle School was announced by Hu Fengyang, Wang Xiaolang, Chen Lianping, and Gan Linglao, and the four students sent enthusiastic congratulatory speeches, and reported the first program, all the students of the second (1) class of high school, came to the stage to sing a chorus, "Yingshan Red and Red Star Follow Me to Fight" two red songs, singing the passion of the red song of the year, a male student participated in the Vietnam self-defense counterattack in 1979 in the last century, and was injured for the country with honor, one-armed, standing in the front row, The students threw admiring glances at him and paid high respect.

In the second program, Chen Lianping showed a beautiful smile on her face and said: "The following is a poem specially created by Wan Yunhai, a student of the second (2) class of high school, for today's big party, Niu Jiangping scored the sunset on the top of the mountain, and was recited by Wan Yunhai and Hu Yuhua. ”

"Hu Yuhua, no thanks, without your classmates, I wouldn't have been able to create this poem, you remember that forty-three years ago, I cooperated with you to recite the Long March-themed poems, and your style back then is still visible, and today is the second time I have cooperated with you in reciting."

Due to the effect of alcohol, Wan Yunhai recited affectionately;

"Farewell"

The red flag fluttered and the military horn sounded.

Soldiers, don't go home.

Wang Ming's route is a heinous crime,

Five times the "encirclement and suppression" of the enemy was rampant.

The Red Army is eager to go on the march,

The strategy shifts to the distance.

Men, women and children come to send each other,

Tears stained with clothes, long romance.

Hold the hands of the Red Army tightly,

When the loved ones will return to their hometowns.

Dark clouds cover the sky and cannot last,

The red sun shines forever.

The revolution must be victorious,

The enemy will be buried.

Wan Yunhai couldn't help reciting a paragraph, the emotions were quite rich, the students were very surprised, affectionate and affectionate, as if they had returned to the recitation of the Long March theme poetry forty-three years ago, the memory was very good, and the students recited with interest, and the students burst into applause.

At this time, Hu Fengyang, a student in the second (3) class of high school, walked to Wan Yunhai's side with applause, and said with a smile: "Wan Yunhai's old classmate, the beautiful recitation just now attracted me to come, it's really good, you are a talented person among our classmates, you can give me the deep memory of the creation of poems, can you give me a deep memory, the writing is so good, the students have a great response, and it brings up the memories of our middle school days, which is meaningful, let me read it well." ”

"Hahaha... It's funny. ”

Wan Yunhai took down the poem manuscript from the folder and gave it to her, Hu Fengyang warmly held Wan Yunhai's hand and said: "After so many years, I heard that you are working in other places, and I hope you will come to Nanjiang often, and it is time to retire this year, take care of your health." ”

She knew what happened to Wan Yunhai's classmates through the information of Nanjiang Daily that year, and she never expected that there would be such a vicious classmate among her classmates.

"Yes! The students have reached the year of the sixtieth year, taking care of their health is the first thing for our students, the children are older, and the grandchildren are growing up and enjoying the joy of family. ”

The identity of Wan Yunhai's classmates, the classmates don't know, they only know that he has been in prison for six years, it is inconvenient to ask, he is also low-key, and does not take the initiative to inform his classmates, they are all at retirement age, they can't show off, in front of their classmates, everyone is equal.

The big party activities, in the laughter and laughter, the students are about to say goodbye, some students hug each other, reluctant, Wan Yunhai shook Xia Genyong's hand, did not let go for a long time, middle school days, the two have a deep relationship, I feel that the time that the students are together is too short, there is a banquet in the world, Niu Jiangping also came over, wordlessly shook hands with each other and said goodbye.

Walking through the dusty road of life, from childhood Mowgli, experiencing the flower season of youth, all the way to the present into the twilight of the sixtieth year, classmates meet, the annual rings of the years, deeply engraved in the faces of the students, everything is in the memory, are in the sleep, the students have returned to the origin of their youth, friendship is still the same, childlike is still the same, laughter is still the grievances on the road of the wind and dust, the right and wrong on the road of the wind and dust, and the smoke is gone.
