thirty-one
Lin Ximeng finally sent Yao Huijuan to Zhuo Qi's side. This idea was reminded by Fan Tianfu, and Lin Ximeng came forward to operate the specific operation.
That day, Lin Ximeng introduced the object to Yao Huijuan, Fan Tianfu knew about it, called Lin Ximeng aside, and said, "There is no fool like you." Lin Ximeng was stunned for a moment, puzzled by what he meant, but soon understood and looked at Fan Tianfu in surprise.
Obviously, this is what Fan Tianfu has been planning for a long time. So, the two of them sat down and worked out a secret plan and program.
The implementation of this plan and program, in order to achieve the desired purpose, will also require a lot of work for Lin Ximeng, who has Lin Tianming's blood flowing in his body.
The difficulty is not in Yao Huijuan, but in Zhuoqi. Zhuo Qi couldn't transfer his love for Lin Ximeng to another woman.
Yao Huijuan is easy to handle, although she is young and beautiful, she is simple-minded, and Lin Ximeng sent her love object away in a few words.
Yao Huijuan is not a woman like her. Yao Huijuan is both rational and realistic, she will never die for any man, she will never be soft for any man, she just wants to live a real life.
Because of the similarity of the two figures, Lin Ximeng kept letting Yao Huijuan wear some of his beautiful clothes, and also bought necklaces, bracelets, various shiny and chic corsages, and handbags for Yao Huijuan.
For a rural girl from a poor family who has never seen much of the world, this is enough to make her grateful to Lin Ximeng.
Lin Ximeng asked Zhuo Qi to give Yao Huijuan all the door keys for the whole family, and decorated a room with a red carpet for Yao Huijuan to live in.
Yao Huijuan went to work in the factory during the day, replaced Lin Ximeng in the morning and evening to cook at home, wash pots and dishes, and wash clothes on Sundays and holidays to improve her life.
Yao Huijuan arranged the daily life of Zhuo Qi and Niu Niu in an orderly manner. At the same time, some things that should have been attended by Lin Ximeng and Zhuo Qi together, friends gatherings, family outings and other things, Lin Ximeng also pushed to Yao Huijuan, and Yao Huijuan participated with Zhuo Qi, and sometimes brought Niu Niu.
Lin Ximeng told her what clothes to wear on what occasions, what accessories to wear, what to say, how to treat people, how to protect and maintain Zhuo Qi, one by one, lest she miss it.
In the past six months, Lin Ximeng has spent a lot of time and energy on Yao Huijuan, doing everything possible to achieve the expected results.
At the end of the dinner, it was already nine o'clock, and Fan Tianfu drove Lin Ximeng home. As usual, the car stopped more than 30 meters from home.
In the dark, Fan Tianfu took her into his arms and whispered: "Ximeng, I will return to the army tomorrow, everything at home will only make you work harder." When I go back this time, I will definitely try to complete all the formalities. ”
"When will you be back?"
"It's about the same in four or five days."
"What should I do if the payment from the Majestic Hotel is not enough?"
"Don't stop working. For the big project in the sea, slow down the progress. In the afternoon, I talked to Lao Diao on the phone, and he explained that the loan of 500,000 yuan in Wutong CCB would take effect in the next two days. ”
"Do you think Lao Diao is credible?"
"It's hard to start a business, and that's normal."
"What if it's a scam? The project itself was done by another company, and Wu Airen heard others say that it was stopped and withdrawn because Lao Diao's money had not arrived for a long time, and it was not as Lao Diao said, that they did not do a good job and drove them away. ”
"How dare he? Reversed him? He does this with others, and he has to weigh it with me. Then it's strange that I don't hire someone to clean up his family's life. Besides, after all, this project is on the ground of Wutong, and he has to think about it if he wants to be crooked. Rest early, I'll be on my train tomorrow morning at six. I'm tired too. Lin Ximeng nodded and let go, opened the door and got out of the car, and Fan Tianfu watched her walk into the house.
Niu Niu had fallen asleep, Zhuo Qi and Yao Huijuan were sitting side by side on the couch, and the two of them were smiling.
Seeing Lin Ximeng come back, Yao Huijuan got up to help her take the purse and put it away, bringing a cup of hot tea. Lin Ximeng sat on the other end of the sofa with tea, drinking tea, admiring the two people in front of him.
Yao Huijuan sat back and said, "Sister, I'll tell you about the gift I gave to my brother." ”
"Tell me, what gifts did you buy?"
"I came out of your company and went to the store, I really didn't know what to buy, and finally picked out a birthday card with Andy Lau's photo. I came home full of joy. When my brother came back from work, I was cooking in the kitchen and didn't care about him. When I finished cooking, washed my hands, held the card in both hands, and my brother was mopping the floor, I said to him, 'Look, brother! I bought you a birthday present! He reached out and took it, and took it into his hand and looked at it...... Guess what he said? ”
"What did he say?"
"He exclaimed, 'I just hate these things!' Lin Ximeng smiled, this seemed normal to her.
When he finished speaking, he threw the card on the table and continued to wipe the floor, ignoring me. Sister, I thought he would be happy, but I didn't expect ......" Lin Ximeng knows Zhuoqi very well, he doesn't know what to hide, and he never pays attention to other people's feelings, but he is so blunt and blindly black and white, and uses this as a shining point of his pride, saying that he has personality.
Before Yao Huijuan finished speaking, Lin Ximeng smiled and said, "Huijuan, this is your fault." Yao Huijuan stared at her with wide eyes in confusion.
Lin Ximeng said: "Think about it, do you like Andy Lau, do you think your brother likes it too?" If you give him a card of a female celebrity, or simply give him a picture of you, can you see if he can say 'I hate this stuff to death'? Yao Huijuan smiled and didn't let go.
Zhuo Qi turned his head to look at Yao Huijuan beside him and said, "That's it." I said it was too late to like it. Lin Ximeng continued: "So, Huijuan, gift-giving is a science. You first need to study the person receiving the gift, analyze his identity, position, hobbies, family background, age, surname, and even think of his state of mind when accepting the gift, etc.; Then analyze yourself, your financial affordability, what you want to achieve, what impression you want to leave on the other person; Whether this gift is an early investment, or a later thanksgiving, a long-term plan, or an immediate benefit, etc.; Finally, it is important to choose the time and occasion for gift-giving. Some gifts can only be delivered to the other person's home at night, and some gifts can only be given to the other person in person during the day; To send a big gift, you need to go back quickly, don't stay at someone's house for a long time, give a small gift......" Yao Huijuan listened carefully as if she didn't understand, and her beautiful face was shining with a delicate luster.
Lin Ximeng was interested, drank a glass of water, and taught her endlessly: "When choosing a gift, you should also pay attention to the packaging, just like a woman needs makeup." If a woman is very beautiful and beautiful on the outside, but empty and boring on the inside, such a woman looks charming at first glance, but once she opens the package, that is, once you talk to her, the inside is empty, it is a big disappointment; On the contrary, if a woman has vivid and rich internal content, but ugly and ugly external form, such a woman will make people lose interest in opening the package, even if she has good content, others will not see it. So, Huijuan, you remember, to be a good woman, you have to have two things at the same time: one is the outer form, and the other is the inner content. The two complement each other and are indispensable. You now have the condition of being outwardly good, and as a woman, this is a gift from God, and you are already very lucky. What you lack is what is within, which is what I am talking about. Content doesn't fill up in a day, and of course the content I'm talking about is elegant, high-class, not tacky and low-class. This is a long process, it takes years, more than ten years, or even decades of unremitting efforts, hard work and hard work......" Yao Huijuan was still listening carefully as if she didn't understand, and when Lin Ximeng picked up the cup and drank tea, she said: "Sister, I think you are the kind of excellent woman you just said. ”
"I'm not a good woman yet, but I believe I will definitely become an excellent woman, and that's what I'm striving for."
"Sister, I can't do it."
"No, Huijuan, you can. You have to be confident in yourself and then ......"
"Sister," Yao Huijuan interrupted her,
"I just graduated from junior high school, how can I do it if I didn't go to your school?"
"It depends on your understanding, your hard work. I feel like it wasn't easy for you to call me that time. Otherwise, you will always be with Ma Zhengyan in my heart. ”
"That's just because I like you so much that I want to be close to you so I can see you again."
"How? You've achieved your goal, haven't you? Yao Huijuan smiled happily: "Not only reached, but far exceeded." ”
"So, Huijuan, what you want, as long as you work hard, you can get it. If you think about it, those women in ancient times were not a small number of people who could read for seven or eight years, but there were many excellent women among them. Yao Huijuan smiled: "Sister, let me try it." If not, don't be too disappointed. ”
"I'll do my best to help you."
"I know this, anyway, I have already entrusted my fate to you." Two women, you and I are talking happily, Zhuo Qi stood up after watching TV.
He stretched and said, "It looks like it's time to train a successor." Both women laughed.
Yao Huijuan said: "I'm afraid of being unqualified." Lin Ximeng smiled at Zhuo Qi and said, "Don't worry, I won't let her go to work if she doesn't get the certificate." The three of them laughed and prepared for bed.
Yao Huijuan said to Zhuo Qi: "Brother, you go to my room tonight, I want to sleep with my sister." Zhuo Qi tilted his head and said with a smile: "Look, I don't want to talk about two wives, but let me have a bare rod, I won't go." Yao Huijuan had already taken off her shoes and jumped on the big bed, but if she didn't get down, Lin Ximeng said to Zhuo Qi: "If she wants to sleep here, let her be here." You go over. "She couldn't ask for that.
Every time Yao Huijuan wants to sleep with her, she says this sentence. Zhuo Qi said: "No! Or maybe I'm here. The two women laughed.
Lin Ximeng smiled and beckoned: "Okay, come up." Zhuo Qi had no choice but to go to Yao Huijuan's room.
After turning off the lights, Yao Huijuan said, "Sister, how can my brother be like this? Lin Ximeng knew that she was still worried about the birthday card.
This is understandable, but in front of Yao Huijuan, she must disguise all Zhuo Qi's shortcomings as advantages, and then expand all his advantages without distortion and infinitely like color enlarged photos, just like she has consistently done in front of all outsiders for more than ten years, so that Yao Huijuan not only appreciates Zhuo Qi's advantages, but more importantly, let her appreciate his shortcomings.
"Huijuan, you don't understand this, this is exactly where your brother shines. If you think about it, if he doesn't like it, he will say that he doesn't like it, and he won't pretend to like it at all, this kind of honesty is not something that ordinary men can have. ”
But he didn't have to use that tone. Sister, you didn't listen to what his tone was like, it was really unbearable. Lin Ximeng smiled in the dark: Huijuan, I didn't hear what that tone was like?
I've been listening to it for more than ten years! I've been suffering for more than ten years!
"Huijuan, no one is perfect, everyone has shortcomings. There are two kinds of shortcomings, one is unconsciously revealed, and the other is consciously made. Your brother revealed it unconsciously. This shortcoming is forgivable. Think about it, if he doesn't do his job, eats, drinks, prostitutes, and gambles outside all day, or sits at home to eat and dress, and does nothing, but only says nice things in front of you, what's the use? ”
"That's too."
"He is hardworking, thrifty, hard-working, never goes out to mess with flowers, loyal and dedicated to love, like this kind of man, there are too few in society today."
"That's too."
"He is very knowledgeable and insightful, and even people like Chen Xiaqiu appreciate him very much."
"Oh."
"So, Huijuan, if you choose a husband, you must choose a man like him."
"Where can I find it? That's the one you have to choose again. The two of them secretly laughed again.
"Sister, though, when I first met my brother, I didn't think that way."
"What do you think?"
"As soon as I saw him, I thought, how can my sister find such a man and see what he looks like...... Don't let him hear it, it's too far and too far away from you, it's not a good match at all. ”
"Huijuan, I don't believe in fate. However, there are some things that are really confusing. I often think that if my father didn't care too much about me, let Mr. Mu be my homeroom teacher; Even if Mr. Mu is the head teacher, he will not be transferred; Even if he is transferred, instead of caring for me like my father, and instructing the head teacher who succeeded him, that is, your brother, to continue to care for me and train me, then where will I be now, what will I be like, what kind of home will I have, what kind of husband will I have,...... As a result, care and care sent me to this bed. ”
"What do you like about him?"
"I ......" Lin Ximeng clearly remembered that it was a Sunday afternoon, she was lying on the bed, Yang Junman walked into the dormitory from the outside with a net of clothes, and shouted: "Lin Ximeng, Teacher Zhuo Qi called you." She sat up from her bunk at once.
She jumped out of bed, walked out of her dorm, and hurried towards the office building. Her face suddenly became hot. Zhuo Qi was standing on the balcony and staring at her.
On Sundays, the campus is quiet, and the entire office building is barely visible. After Lin Ximeng went upstairs, Zhuo Qi led the way, and she followed behind him.
She looked at him from behind: he was of medium height, narrow-shouldered and thin-waisted, and his extremely thin stature caused him to walk with his head stretched out in front and down, as if he were hiding his face with shyness, and as if he were ready to spot something on the ground.
What a thin teacher! No wonder some classmates call him behind his back
"Captain Ribs". He was so thin that people worried about his health. Zhuo Qi pushed open the office door, let Lin Ximeng go in first, and then closed the door.
He asked Lin Ximeng to sit on a wooden chair across from his desk. Lin Ximeng lowered his head and sat nervously, rubbing his two braids in order to hide his nervousness.
The braids were tied with a green ribbon and were about to be kneaded. Zhuo Qi opened the drawer with the key, took out a neat stack of white paper, and handed it to her with both hands.
Lin Ximeng raised his head suspiciously, and was greeted by those breathtaking eyes. She quickly lowered her head, and as soon as she touched something in her hand, she became even more nervous, almost crying.
She didn't have the courage to look at them in front of him. She folded it up and was just about to put it in her pocket, but unexpectedly, Zhuo Qi said loudly, "No! I want you to watch it now! He looked serious and spoke stiffly, leaving no room for negotiation.
Lin Ximeng was frightened, and the extreme nervousness made her incontinent for a while and peed her pants. She wanted to cry, but she didn't dare to, so she nervously opened it again.
It was a passionate love letter, and she only vaguely saw these words: "You are my loveliest person, the one I admire the most, you are the scarf on the sea, you are the spirit of light and beauty." Disappointed, find confidence in you! Do you know that I am secretly loving you, you are the rose in my heart, and you will always care about my heart. I, the descendant of an ordinary peasant, do not love money, do not love status; I love only noble sentiments, great virtues. Such a person, I would like to be her lifelong companion. Scold! I was so excited, my heart was beating so hard, and my admiration was like a rolling Yellow River, churning and roaring! When I saw you in my dreams, I wanted to wake you up in my dreams. Lin Ximeng's own heartbeat was heard clearly.
She didn't know how to answer him, and her heart began to think most intensely in her life, this is the most important thing in life after all.
Although she admired him and respected him, she didn't expect him to mention it to herself so clearly at this moment.
She was so ashamed that she almost wanted to cry. I want to say, I'm sorry, after all, he is her teacher, and she is his student after all.
How does this make her speak? Without saying anything, he had already stood up and walked around the room, waiting for her words.
Her heart is dead of embarrassment, and her contradiction is dead. Perhaps it will be the most contradictory moment of her life, never again.
It's a godsend! In a hurry, she picked up a pen on the table, took a piece of paper in her hand, and wrote: "Teacher, do you really love me?" ”
"Oh," she thought,
"It's better than saying it with your mouth." She was still sitting, and when Zhuo Qi paced to the table, she pushed the paper closer to him and motioned for him to look at it.
Unexpectedly, Zhuo Qi immediately jumped up angrily when he saw it, and shouted loudly at the top of his throat: "Can this still be fake?!" How can such a major thing come about?! Perhaps, this voice will be irritated to others; Perhaps, anyone in the world who used this voice on her would also die in tears and pain.
Strangely, however, she did not shed tears or pain, but felt that the voice seemed so beautiful, so pleasant, so warm.
So, she went on to write: "I am secretly in love with you too. This time, Zhuo Qi did not shout again after seeing it, but wrote under her words: "I will always wait for you; I am waiting for you to graduate, waiting for the end of your service period (note: you can only become a formal state cadre one year after graduating from the middle school, and you are not allowed to get married within this year, which is called the use period); I will always be yours. ”
"As long as my life exists, I will be yours; As long as my soul exists, I will belong to you; As long as you wait for me, I will be your lifelong companion. Lin Ximeng wrote this, and after Zhuo Qi finished reading it, he stood in front of her.
She had to get up from her chair. He grabbed her hand with both hands and held it tightly. Lin Ximeng's slender hands have never been touched by a man; This grip is privately engaged for life.
"Sister, say, why do you fall in love with him?"
"It's very simple," Lin Xi thought about it and said,
"There is a female classmate in my class named Xin Yuan, who fell in love with a male classmate Wu Liren, just because Wu Liren ran very fast in the sports meeting, and always won the first place. As for me, it was because your brother worked very hard at that time, and he taught and taught himself every day. ”
"It's as simple as that?"
"It's that simple now, but I didn't think it was that way at the time. If you think about it, I thought at the time, all you need to get married is a big bed. But then I got married without even a bed, which is the saddest ......thing for me" Lin Ximeng suddenly realized that he was far away from the topic, and quickly stopped.
Fortunately, it was dark in the middle of the night, and they couldn't see each other's expressions clearly, and Yao Huijuan didn't pay much attention to what she said behind her.
She said: "Sister, you are so romantic enough to think that you only need to have a bed to get married, I don't think so." ”
"What do you think?" Lin Ximeng put his mind at ease and asked easily.
"At the very least, you have to have a house, which is more reasonable ...... materially"
"Huijuan, I think your conditions are high enough. In the county town, which is not as good as the rural area, it is difficult for young people to get married and have a house right away. ”
"You don't even have to talk about it without a house. As long as there is a house, people will almost be settled, I am a rural hukou, this ......"
"It's not difficult, as long as you find someone who can bring out your account, won't it be solved?"
“……”
"I see, Huijuan, your conditions are too harsh. Think about it, you still have to have a house, you can still turn farming into non-farming, and you still need people like your brother, where can you find it? ”
"I think so, too."
"Only one person has these qualifications."
"Who?"
"Your brother."
"You're kidding again."
"Really, Huijuan, think about it, your brother and I just built four private houses in the south of the city this spring, two sets, and now this public house, a total of three, you can have whichever set you want; Your brother is a lecturer and can bring out the family registration; He is such a different person, needless to say that Wutong is such a one, it is a large range ......"
"I know this, but how is this possible?"
"As I said, there is nothing impossible in the world, as long as you want to do it, it will be what you want. It depends on how much you want to think about it. You think, since you don't want to leave me, you want to see me every day, and you need a husband like your brother, why don't we live together? ”
"......"
"We don't care about society. In some open cities in the south, there are many polygamous. This is also the case in our Sycamore, but they don't make it public. I have a friend who works in architecture, and he's like that, he has a wife at home and a girl outside. I met them the other day and they told me they were going to plan to have a baby. They are sneaky, lest their wives know about it, and we don't have to. What's so bad about that, you say? Besides, your brother is fifteen years old from you, what's this? Yao Huijuan hesitated and said, "I'm afraid that my brother will not agree." ”
"It's okay, I'll take my time and get to work. But you have to cooperate with me. ”
"I don't know how to cooperate."
"Like gold. Didn't your brother often mention gold before you? ”
"The southern one?"
"Yes, that's the girl."
"Every time he mentions her in front of me, don't mention that happy look, how charming she is, but I won't."
"You learn, the charm of gold lies in her coquettishness and suppleness, but in fact she is not more beautiful than you. Think about it, how could your brother be such a blunt man, how could he like a blunt woman again. The world is like this, he himself is too stiff, but he longs for submissiveness, and I think that's why he grabbed me back then. Now, you have to be supple, and that's the only way to do it. ”
"I'll try to see." Obviously, Yao Huijuan has no problem with this level. As long as Yao Huijuan can be a little softer, Zhuo Qi will be much easier to do.
It was only at this time that Lin Ximeng remembered whether he wanted Zhuo Qi or not.
