Chapter 055: The Truth That Night

It is good for people to have ideals. But you must know how to rest your mind, and you can't have too much greed, especially greedy for things that you can't control.

—Epigraph

When you enter the house, you will be greeted by a lavishly decorated hall, and then look up at the high ceiling with ornate chandeliers, all of which are 12 together, creating a brilliant and sparkling light. The room was full of well-dressed waiters walking around the crowd with plates, the same costumes, the same well-behaved faces, the same trained gestures, all polite and cautious.

The woman with fragrant clothes and sideburns talked and laughed, and the gentlemanly man was polite and whispered. The white tablecloth is adorned with delicate plates, and the food on the plate makes you hungry at the sight, but you can't bear to eat these things that look more like masterpieces of art.

There was a long music in the hall, which was not noisy, but people couldn't help but want to dance, and in the hall, there were already some men and women singing and dancing to the music, and there were people around to beat the beat.

This kind of banquet is indeed not an ordinary private banquet. Whether it is Zhou Zhenzhen, or the slightly classical clothes she wore before, they will only make people despised. No wonder Yu Yao was so angry, that is, the outfit that Zhao Min was wearing just now seemed to have been changed temporarily. Dong Xiaokui stood at the door for a while, looked around, and didn't see Yu Yao or Zhao Min.

But Zhou Zhenzhen has been standing by her side tightly, for fear that she will be lost. That's right, in this banquet, only the two of them are real paupers. Yu Yao actually met Ye San when he was a child, which shows that Yu Yao's family background is not good, although Zhao Min's family is not a powerful family, but it is not a poor person in the capital, not an ordinary person.

And only Zhou Zhenzhen and herself, one from rural Shanxi, runs a small coal kiln at home; One is from a small mountain town in Jincheng, and his family is even more poor.

So on this gorgeous ship, only the two of them snuggled up to each other.

However, Dong Xiaokui looked at such a banquet, and felt uncomfortable in the end. Where is this banquet a private banquet to the extreme, and where is it a birthday party that doesn't matter as Dai Yuqing said? It's just a mirror, reflecting the gap between them and these powerful families. still looks at people and is ridiculed.

I don't know why Dai Yuqing's mother is so enthusiastic, and she went to Changyuan to say hello to Li Mochou in person? What the hell is warning Zhao Min!! Such a gap is impossible for even Zhao Min to cross, let alone a typical ugly duckling like himself, a weed growing in the cracks of the stones.

Thinking of this, Dong Xiaokui's heart dimmed a lot. I couldn't help but turn around and look around, looking around the crowd, I didn't see Xu Er, but I saw Ye San talking between a group of women, his eyebrows fluttering, which made the women laugh.

"Aoi, let's go over there, there's a cake wrapped in strawberry jam that's delicious." Zhou Zhenzhen gently pulled her arm and pointed to a dining table in the corner, where the snow-white tablecloth was full of sumptuous food. But because the food is there, there are very few people there, and it's a clean place.

"Hmm. Good. Dong Xiaokui said, and walked over with Zhou Zhenzhen, and a waiter came over and politely asked what the two were drinking.

Dong Xiaokui's stomach was not good, it was empty, and she just asked for a glass of warm water. Zhou Zhenzhen was stunned for a moment, the waiter was well-trained, and he didn't look flustered at all, but said very politely: "Miss, please wait for a while." ”

When the waiter had finished speaking, he took the plate and left.

"Let's go." Dong Xiaokui pulled Zhou Zhenzhen, who was almost petrified on the side, and walked to the corner together.

Zhou Zhenzhen reacted at this time and asked in a low voice: "Xiaokui, do you drink warm water?" I see it's all wine or something, and if you say this, will you be laughed at? ”

"Just be yourself, there's no need to be afraid. We don't lack anything except our rich parents, mothers, and ancestors. Besides, warm water is a healthy life. Let's go. Dong Xiaokui said casually.

"Ah, Xiaokui, to be honest, I like your composure the most, and this is what I lack the most. My mom and dad have told me many times, and my sister-in-law has also said that sooner or later I will be killed by uncalmness. Zhou Zhenzhen sighed.

Dong Xiaokui smiled, took a fork and forked a piece of bread on the plate, and said casually: "I was also forced to be helpless, in the past two years, I have learned a lot, if I changed to before, I was afraid that I would be very competitive, you don't know, when I was a child, I was like a boy." Whoever bullies me, I will bully back tenfold. Fights have a tendency to be outlaws. ”

"Huh? You're still going to fight? If you don't listen to you, you won't see it at all. Zhou Zhenzhen said as she put a piece of fruit on the plate.

"Being forced to be helpless, who doesn't want to be a good doll and be protected. If someone protects you. Dong Xiaokui was just hungry, so she took the bread and wanted to pad her stomach, and she didn't want to eat anything at this party. So there was very little food on the plate, so I walked to the side, and there was an empty sofa over there.

Zhou Zhenzhen hurriedly followed, and said very apologetically: "I'm sorry, I mentioned your sadness again." ”

This woman has always been very aggressive, but she is completely scheming and very kind. Dong Xiaokui smiled, shook his head, and said, "It's been many years, and I'm not very sad anymore. It's just that sometimes when I'm tired of walking, I feel a little sad. ”

Yes, she promised her father that she would take good care of her mother and younger brother, because her father said that she was the eldest daughter and should set an example and take responsibility. So even if you are sad and miss your father very much, you can't cry, you have to say to yourself: Dong Xiaokui, you have to come on, you have to come on. Your name is for you to face the sun.

Gradually, she got used to it, she would miss her father very much, and she would think of her childhood again and again, but she was not very sad anymore, or rather, she was not too allowed to be sad.

"I know you've always comforted me, even though I'm older than you. I know what it's like. When my grandmother left the year before last, I felt like a piece of life was missing. Zhou Zhenzhen was a little gloomy.

Dong Xiaokui took a bite of the bread, the taste was delicate, the wheat was fragrant, and it was really delicious. While chewing, she reached out and patted Zhou Zhenzhen, smiled at her, and then comforted her: "Don't think about those who are unhappy, live well, live with dignity, they will be happy." ”

Zhou Zhenzhen was still shouting a piece of apple in her mouth, but she couldn't help but reach out to wipe her tears, and nodded while wiping her tears.

Dong Xiaokui finished dealing with a piece of bread in this clean place covered by the screen, and the waiter found her, brought warm water over, apologized repeatedly, and said, "I'm sorry, miss, our service is not attentive enough, please forgive me." ”

Dong Xiaokui took the water cup, took a sip gently, the temperature was moderate, smiled at the waiter, and said, "No, you came just right." I had just finished eating a loaf of bread and needed a glass of water. This water temperature is very suitable. ”

"Thank you, Miss." The waiter saluted Dong Xiaokui and withdrew.

This place is indeed hidden enough, but if someone calls, will Xu Er find her? Dong Xiaokui thought while drinking water, and couldn't help but stand up.

"Aoi, is there anything wrong with you?" Zhou Zhenzhen was still drinking juice and asked vaguely.

"It's fine." She replied, and sat down slowly. But the dark tide is turbulent in my heart, and I am very uncalm.

She secretly thought: It seems too much for herself to look around at Xu Er so rashly. He and himself, one lives in the Jiuhua Heavenly Palace, and the other lives in the underground slums. Originally, they would never meet, and this occasional encounter was also a huge mistake.

Besides, he Xu Er is known as the most playful master among the children of the capital, and there are countless warblers and swallows. For him, I am afraid that the woman is just a symbol of the fat swallow and the thinness.

And for him, I'm afraid that even Yingying Yanyan can't reach it. It's just a woman, not Dong Xiaokui, right?

It's just a woman, not Dong Xiaokui. When she thought of this, she was a little lost before laughing at herself in her heart, delusional that he thought that he took her to Wuweiji for dinner, and took her to Ning Yuan, where women didn't seem to be able to go, was a little different.

What's the difference? Perhaps, his gentleness and carefulness are just the result of hunting inertia.

When Dong Xiaokui thought of this, her heart brightened little by little, and she became more and more clear about what kind of road she should take.

I should try to settle the matter on Sun Guanhua's side, and then make peace with Xu Erchu and Han. After that, I will pay off the money I owe to the other side, and after graduating from college, I will go back to Jincheng to find a job, earn money to buy a house, and take care of my mother and younger brother. Then find someone who has ordinary eyebrows or an ordinary family background, as long as it is a reliable person, raise a child of your own to live this life together. It's good to have that kind of simple and quiet happiness, such as the simple and quiet happiness of dad and mom**. Even if they are not materially rich, the tenderness when they look at each other is the warmth of real existence.

Live your life like this, it's good, it's simple, and you'll be happy.

Everyone should not have too many desires, to hope too much for things that do not belong to them. Some time ago, when the old man in the history department talked about Li Chengqian, he said it well. If a person's morality and cultivation have not reached a certain level, you have to let him bear the world, which is harming him. Then, in other words, if a person's knowledge and status are only here, but he has to let her live another life, it will hurt her.

It is good for people to have ideals. But you must know how to rest your mind, and you can't have too much greed, especially greedy for things that you can't control.

He is a person who can't control himself and can't parry. Dong Xiaokui held her hand tightly and sat on the sofa, feeling a little chilly, feeling that she was the one who stood on the edge of the cliff in a daze and almost jumped down.

At this moment when her thoughts were surging like a dark tide, Zhou Zhenzhen had already finished dealing with the food on the plate, put the plate aside, and said, "I won't eat anything after I wait a while, just wait for Dai Yuqing to finish cutting the cake and singing the birthday song, and then leave, and I am uncomfortable staying in this place." By the way, Xiaokui, you eat so little, you go back hungry, and there is nothing to eat in the dormitory. Otherwise, I'll go get you two more slices of bread. ”

Dong Xiaokui shook her head and said, "Before I came, I ate some biscuits in the dormitory and padded it, I wasn't hungry, and besides, I couldn't eat anything in this atmosphere." ”

Zhou Zhenzhen nodded, and the two of them sat on the sofa, listening to the laughter in their ears, and were relatively speechless for a while. After a while, Zhou Zhenzhen broke the silence and shouted "Xiaokui" with some concern.

"Huh? What's wrong? Dong Xiaokui raised her eyebrows and looked at Zhou Zhenzhen, looking like she wanted to say something and stopped, and intuitively felt that she was hiding something from herself, so she asked: "If you have anything to say, just say it directly." ”

Zhou Zhenzhen looked around, but didn't see anyone, so she lowered her voice and said: "Today, Zhao Min and Yu Yao didn't let me say it, and yesterday, Mr. Xu didn't let me tell you, saying that he was afraid that you would not feel comfortable, but I think it is better to let you know." After all, I saw that Mr. Xu was not the same person as us, and when I looked at him, I always felt furious, so I thought about it for a day, and I thought it would be better to tell you, don't say that I said it. ”

When Dong Xiaokui heard this, he nodded, and was busy writing: "Yesterday, did I meet Mr. Xu?" When she asked this, she somewhat understood in her heart that it was about after she was drunk yesterday.

Zhou Zhenzhen pursed her lips before she came over and said, "Li Mochou didn't pursue it yesterday, what do you think?" What have you been talking about, your husband must be a hero or something. But if you make trouble on campus, Dai Yuqing can't hold you. Everyone was anxious, but somehow Mr. Xu came. ”

"He's coming?" Dong Xiaokui asked in a low voice, and couldn't help but gasp, isn't it that in those fragmented clips last night, it seems that I saw the dark blue starry sky on the top of the star mountain in the "most mythical" game, and the autumn water long song on the side, that is Xu Er?

"Yes. He's coming, and he'll take you away without saying a word. I don't know it, and Zhao Min doesn't know either, but Yuyao seems to know him, his face has changed, and he stood still and didn't move. Dai Yuqing was so surprised that he couldn't speak for a long time, he just stood there, and woke up like a dream for a long time and said, 'It's Brother Zhonglin, it's Brother Zhonglin'! Later, he told us that Xu Erping didn't speak, and whoever provoked him would not end well, and he also said that he had special skills and excellent skills. Anyway, Dai Yuqing admires Mr. Xu very much. Zhou Zhenzhen narrated excitedly.

Dong Xiaokui listened, but only felt that bursts of thunder rolled by, his ears were deafening, and his head was blank, he was drunk last night and he actually sent it back, so the sentence "Revenge, you must do it yourself" is also what he praised? She suddenly remembered that when she woke up today, Zhao Min said to her, "My husband must be a hero of the world", indicating vomiting.

Isn't there something wrong with me? Dong Xiaokui hurriedly grabbed Zhou Zhenzhen's arm and asked, "I didn't lose my temper, right?" I didn't say anything I shouldn't have said, did I? ”

Zhou Zhenzhen hurriedly shook off her hand, touched the arm that was grabbed by her, thought for a while, organized the wording, and said: "You don't have any gaffes, but you have been singing the song "Whenever It Changes", and after singing, you are only singing the sentence 'Stone He becomes jade', singing for a while, and then asking 'Xiaokui will become jade', right?" We're wiping sweat behind our backs. Dai Yuqing said that Mr. Xu is a person who has never laughed, and he is cruel to people, and he actually replied to you, 'Yes, Xiaokui has always been a jade'. Dai Yuqing followed behind as if sleepwalking. ”

Dong Xiaokui listened, and couldn't help covering her face, eager to get into the crack in the ground immediately. Zhou Zhenzhen was still on the side and said: "Later, when I was about to arrive at Changyuan, you kept saying, 'What is Chen Jiachuan, phew.'" My husband must be a hero of the world or something. As a result, it was very noisy. Yu Yao went to Mr. Xu, this kind of quarrel may not be good for you. Mr. Xu stopped on Wutong Avenue, patted you on the back, and said to you, 'Well, okay, good, you must be a hero of the world', the more you make trouble, the more energetic you are, we are afraid that Mr. Xu will get angry at any time. As a result, he coaxed you there for more than an hour, and in the end you were still shouting some autumn water song, damn, it's just a game and reality. ”

"Ah, don't talk about it." Dong Xiaokui couldn't listen to it anymore, and begged Zhou Zhenzhen not to say it, but Zhou Zhenzhen really didn't say it. After being quiet for a while, Dong Xiaokui's heart was in a mess, and she couldn't help but want to know more, and finally couldn't help but ask Zhou Zhenzhen what happened next.

At this time, Zhou Zhenzhen suddenly covered her mouth and laughed for a while without speaking.

"You mean?" Dong Xiaokui grabbed her arm again, she let out an "ah", hit her backhand, and said, "You are too violent." It's a shame that he didn't use force in Mr. Xu's arms last night. ”

Dong Xiaokui paid attention to her, and only asked: "I shouted Qiushui Changge, what's the matter, you say it quickly?" ”

Zhou Zhenzhen covered her mouth and laughed for a while before telling Dong Xiaokui that after she shouted the long song of Qiushui, she cried for a while, saying that it was just a game, just a game. As a result, Xu Er actually patted her on the back and said, "Your husband must be a hero of the world." No, he will try his best to become a hero of the world", and the tone of his voice was very gentle, this sentence made Dai Yuqing petrified around, until Dong Xiaokui rubbed his snot and tears on other people's suits, fell asleep in Xu Er's arms, and was carried back to the bed in Changyuan's dormitory by Xu Er, covered with a quilt and went downstairs, Dai Yuqing was still petrified in place, asking him what, he couldn't say anything.

"He carried me back to the dormitory!" Dong Xiaokui's voice was very small, this sentence was not a question, and suddenly he felt that he had no strength at all, maybe things were more complicated than he expected.

"Yes, but gently, gently, Li Mochou came out to question, he glared fiercely, Li Mochou is such a fierce person, he really didn't say a word. Later, Mr. Xu covered the quilt for you, told us to take care of you, and told us that it was because his friend misunderstood that he poured you wine. Apologized to us. Zhou Zhenzhen said, the praise and worship were overflowing.

"Huh? Will he apologize? Dong Xiaokui immediately asked, always feeling that there was a muffled thunder slashing over, which was too weird. Xu Er's appearance is like an apology? What kind of tricks is this man playing?

"yes. He said he was embarrassed, and said, 'I don't know Xiaokui well, but I met a few times and had a meal, and I was misunderstood by my friend, so I poured alcohol.' I'll take care of the rest, just don't tell her about tonight, lest she feel uncomfortable', and then left, Li Mochou's side, he also handled it. Zhou Zhenzhen continued.

Dong Xiaokui listened to the truth of last night, leaning against the sofa tightly, her face was hot, but her heart was flustered. She frowned for a long time before she let out a breath. I thought to myself: If that's the case, I owe him another amount. How to pay it back, how to pay it back.

Himself and him must be the Chu River and Han realm. Because for people who are on different paths, this is the only way out. Dong Xiaokui, you have to remember.

She admonished herself in her heart!
