Chapter 40: On the Water Side

Wu Yi spread his hands and said with a smile: "I'm out!" ”

Zekuan asked, "How do you know I'm here?" ”

Wu Yi said: "I called Zhao Wencheng, that guy, how is it?" Can you skip class and get together? ”

Zekuan said: "What's the matter, we haven't seen each other for so long, of course we have to get together." ”

The two came to a food stall at the bottom of the viaduct, Wu Yi took out a cigarette and handed it to Zekuan, who said, "You know I don't know how to smoke." ”

Wu Yi smiled and said: "I haven't learned it yet, we are almost all poisoned when we come out, and you are still spotless." ”

Zekuan smiled bitterly and said, "There are some things I just can't learn." ”

Wu Yi lit a cigarette, exhaled a long puff of smoke, and said: "Some things still don't change, just like me, if I had listened to your advice, I wouldn't have had this kind of thing." ”

Zekuan said: "If Zhao Wencheng hadn't given you this idea, you wouldn't have done this." ”

Wu Yi said: "It's none of his business, if I don't want to do it myself, no one's idea is useless." ”

Zekuan asked him, "Do you know about Agui?" ”

Wu Yi nodded gloomily and said, "I know, I didn't expect him to be like this because of a woman." ”

Zekuan said: "I think it is caused by many factors, his childhood, his family, and the people around him, and no one can explain him, I have tried to talk to him, but he doesn't want to, if you are here, it is possible to comfort him." ”

Wu Yi shook his head and said, "It's useless, in fact, we can't help him." ”

Wu Yi picked up the menu card, handed it to Zekuan and said, "Come, order food first, celebrate my freedom today, I have a treat." ”

Zekuan said, "I'll please." ”

Wu Yi said: "You don't have to fight with me, I can still afford it, come, hurry up." ”

Zekuan said: "I don't know what is delicious, so you should order it." ”

Wu Yi ordered 5 dishes in one go, and Zekuan said: "Enough, you don't need to order so much." ”

Wu Yi said: "It's not just the two of us, that guy from Wencheng came over after this hour." ”

When the beer came, Wu Yi bit the cap of the bottle and said, "Come on, we haven't dried the bottle for a long time." ”

Zekuan also bit the cap of the bottle, and the two touched the bottle and drank it.

Zekuan asked, "What about Ruan Min?" Is she still doing it at McDonald's? ”

Wu Yi took a big sip of beer, shook his head, and said, "It's gone, we also broke up." ”

Zekuan didn't dare to ask so much.

"What the hell, what the hell, don't wait for me to dry the bottle, it's too unusual." Zhao Wencheng shouted and hurried.

Wu Yi squirted him with a sip of beer, he dodged with a skating step, and said proudly: "Fortunately, I have practiced this 'bumping micro step' at home, and you can't hurt me." ”

Wu Yi said: "I won't hurt you, keep it for the woman to take your dog's life." ”

Zhao Wencheng smiled and said, "Then I thank you for the women of the world." "Sit down, bite off the cap, and fill half a bottle of beer in one go.

Wu Yi said: "Our three fellow villagers are reunited, and I hope that it will be the same as before in the future." ”

Zekuan was silent, Zhao Wencheng stuffed vegetables into his mouth vigorously, and said vaguely: "It's not the same, but it's not who has the final say." ”

Wu Yi said: "Everyone has the final say, the three of us are in the same country and the same school grade, and we have come to Guangzhou thousands of miles away, if we can't get along amicably, do we have to be enemies to be happy?" As he spoke, he held up the bottle.

Zekuan and Zhao Wencheng had a stalemate because of Wu Yi's matter, and now that Wu Yi doesn't care, he is even more difficult to care, so he also raised the bottle.

Zhao Wenchenghuo stood up, bowed deeply and said, "Two big brothers, I am the most wrong, I did it." The three of them touched the bottle and drank it happily, and Wu Yi kicked Zhao Wencheng's stool away.

There was a small karaoke room opposite, less than twenty square meters, with seven or eight tables set up inside and outside, half of which were seated. The sound is deafening, the sound effect is seriously distorted, a man and a woman are singing, the male voice is like killing a pig, and the female voice is like giving birth to a child, it is really a terrible singing.

Zhao Wencheng scolded: "Grandma's, the old women in the countryside cry and mourn better than them for 10,000 light years, who spends money to make a fool of themselves?" ”

Wu Yi said: "Anyway, if you sing well or not, you don't break the law, just be happy, migrant workers like us yearn for the life of urban people, and they can't afford high consumption, so they can only settle for the second." ”

Zekuan asked, "Wu Yi, what are your plans now?" ”

Wu Yi pointed to the karaoke room opposite and said, "I also want to open a karaoke room like this." ”

Zhao Wencheng took a sip of beer and said, "Are you kidding?" I listen to those people crying and howling wolves every day. ”

Wu Yi said: "What are you afraid of, just make money, I don't want to go back to work in the factory anymore, I made some money for my dad to save for me last year, and it should be enough to open a store." ”

Zekuan raised the wine bottle and said, "Then we wish you a successful opening and a prosperous business." ”

Everyone was a little drunk, and Wu Yi asked Zekuan: "Do you still write articles now?" ”

Zekuan said: "I don't have time to write, and I don't have the heart to write, but yesterday I received a letter from the magazine "Nanchao", my novel last year was selected as the outstanding work of the year, with a bonus of 500 yuan, and I was invited to participate in the author's readers' association, but I have to take a day off, I don't want to go, you know, I don't want to take advantage of this kind of excitement." ”

Wu Yi said to him: "Why don't you go, people don't have a chance to go to this kind of activity, but you want to give up, what's the matter if you take a day off, you should go out and have more contact with different people, maybe you will meet some beautiful girls, listen to me, you must go." ”

Zekuan said: "Okay, I'll listen to you, go play." ”

Nanchao magazine held a social event in a scenic area called "Little Bird Paradise" in Jiangmen City, Guangdong, which is famous for the articles of the literary master Mr. Ba Jin that were selected into primary school textbooks, and is an hour's drive from Guangzhou. Zekuan set off early in the morning, according to the guide to the scenic spot, there are the reception staff of the magazine at the door, according to the list after signing in to receive the scenic spot tickets and signs.

Before the event officially began, he wandered around the scenic spot, which was the first time in his life.

This "Bird's Paradise" is a large banyan tree with a single forest on the sandbar in the middle of the river, with a canopy covering 20 acres of water surface, which has become a habitat for many rare birds.

Zekuan stood at the water's edge and looked at the lush tree islands in the river.

Over the years, every time he approached the water's edge, he would have an inexplicable fear that he would not dare to look into the water.

He didn't know which day he would be able to overcome that fear.

He walked to the water's edge step by step, looking down at the water, and the fear in his heart came back again, but it didn't seem as strong as before.

At this moment, a gentle voice sounded in his ears: "Are there birds flying under the water?" ”
