Chapter 11: Half a Year Later
Yuan Anqi had a false alarm, but she was secretly glad that she followed Dong Yu and took the opportunity to put out the dress pressed in the cabinet, and continued to be her eldest lady the rest of the time, taking the car to and from school with Bai Shuming every day.
What still can't be changed is the attention to Liang Molian. She still has a little bottom in her heart, knowing that it will not be too long to study, so she pays more attention to Liang Molian, and gradually, she has practiced the skill of being able to target Liang Molian at a glance in the crowd, and she found that Liang Molian is getting older and more like Brigade Commander Liang who met in Tianjin.
Mosheng and Molian, although her aunt didn't mention Liang Mosheng's net worth much, she also guessed a few points. Now she looks at Liang Molian's sweaty back on the sports field, and she can't help but feel sentimental, she almost became her sister-in-law.
"An Qi, let's go fly a kite!" Bai Shuming ran upstairs and got a centipede-shaped kite, jumping and shouting. Yuan Anqi frowned and shook his head, "I still have a headache." Bai Shuming pouted when he heard this, so he had to pull the maid to accompany him.
Relieved in his heart, Yuan Anqi couldn't help but sigh that the little boy was really difficult to educate. Bai Shuming is getting older and naughty now, "sister" is no longer called, but called her by her name, she is not crazy enough with children of the same age at school during the day, and she is crazy with her when she comes back from school, she just wants to be a big lady quietly at the moment.
And as always, her buttocks hurt after sitting for a long time, Bai Shuming often fell from the sky and pulled her up unexpectedly, Yuan Anqi was often so painful that she wanted to knock his head up!
As for headaches, that's a sweet thing to say. The incident happened in an inconspicuous physical education class in March in Yangchun, she usually watched people on the sports field and did not watch the ball, and the basketball did not have eyes.
The person who threw the ball happened to be Liang Molian, and the young man was so anxious that he rushed over to check on her injuries. In fact, the dizziness was only for a moment, and after a while, she regained consciousness, and when she raised her eyes, she saw Lian Jun bending over, looking at her anxiously and worriedly, her heart trembled, and she suddenly felt that Liang Molian was born with big hands and feet, and she was so tall that she was simply vulnerable in front of him.
Liang Molian helped her to sit down in the stands on the side, and sat beside her, asking her how she felt with concern. The little face flushed, she smiled and said that it was no big deal, but when she turned her head, she found that even if she was sitting, she was not as good as Lian Jun's shoulder.
She was deeply annoyed in her heart, she hated how she had formed the petite body of a southern woman, and in the past year, she had not grown any taller at all, and she watched Bai Shuming reach her neck like a bamboo.
"Do you want to take you to the hospital?" Liang Molian scratched his head anxiously, he was playing the ball in a good way, but he unexpectedly touched someone, his interest was ruined, and he was a little irritable. Other classmates also gathered around to ask, and after Yuan Anqi said "it's okay" a few times in a row, he dispersed and started playing.
"Mister Liang, do you have an older brother named Liang Mosheng?" Yuan Anqi saw that there was a moment of silence, she seized the opportunity to say something, but she couldn't think of any common topic at once, and the three words "Liang Mosheng" popped out of her mind involuntarily, as if she had been waiting in a corner of her mind, just a simple response.
Liang Molian was surprised, and only simply said "um". His elder brother really can't count them, what is in the genealogy, what is not in the genealogy is provided outside, and even his son doesn't know, sometimes he can't even be sure whether he is the eldest of the Liang family, so for the messy number of brothers, he is also powerless to take care of it, so he simply obediently acts as his little master.
"Are you really not hurting?" He asked again, and Yuan Anqi nodded. The little young master who has lived without waves for more than ten years can't stand the guilt of hurting people without intention, so Liang Molian decided to invite her to afternoon tea to compensate.
Usually in such a situation, she would be very reserved and politely refused, but since the other party was Liang Molian, Yuan Anqi replied "yes" without much thought.
The two slipped out of the school gate, found a good café, and each asked for a bottle of cold soda, and Liang Molian ordered another hazelnut sauce chocolate cake for Yuan Anqi. In the afternoon, the sun shone in through the floor-to-ceiling windows, and the lonely air could not only be the "cooing" sound of drinking, Liang Mo even found a topic for a long time, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he was surprised that he would talk about his strange brother.
"Do you know my sixth brother, Mi Si Yuan?" He asked. Yuan Anqi: "Huh? After a while, she immediately realized that the "sixth brother" in his mouth was Liang Mosheng, pursed her lips and nodded, she explained: "Mr. Liang Liu knows my aunt, I have seen him." ”
"Oh, yes, Miss Yuan is the cousin of the White Mansion." Liang Mosheng said this, but what he was thinking about was not Yuan Anqi's life experience, but the romantic relationship between his sixth brother and Bai Liu's grandmother Dong Yun, who was known all over the city.
"Speaking of which, my sixth brother is also a strange person, and the brothers next to him are fighting for family property and bleeding, so he is good and ran to join the army to stand on his own."
"I heard that he has become a brigade commander." Yuan Anqi echoed. "Really?" Liang Molian was a little surprised, "I can't tell what brigade commander and division commander it is, but I heard from someone some time ago that he had been fighting in Tianjin last winter, and there is no news now." ”
"He's still in Tianjin?" The momentum of the soda came up, and Yuan Anqi held back her burps with an ugly face. Liang Molian let out an absent-minded "um", lowered his head and fiddled with the ice cubes floating in the glass bottle with a straw.
"And what does Mister Liang want to do in the future?" Yuan Anqi pinched the straw, bit her lip and asked, her heart "thumped", and she choked two mouthfuls of chocolate cake to calm down in the moment of Liang Molian's contemplation.
Few people asked about his future, and even he didn't think much about it. He can only play, he just wants to play, and when he leaves school, he can only say a Mies, Mister or Goodmenen, and his brothers have been sent abroad one by one, so does he still have to play abroad?
He was going to answer that he didn't know, but when he saw Yuan Anqi's little face flushed, his eyelashes like small wings, flickering with the rise and fall of his eyelids, and his slender and small fingers moving here and there, looking nervous and expectant, he finally decided to say, "Nine times out of ten, I will study abroad." What about Mies Yuan? Will you also go abroad? Maybe we'll be able to have a companion then? ”
As soon as Yuan Anqi heard him say the word "we", he was so happy that he forgot what his identity was, and he was full of promises, and he also discussed Britain, the United States, and Japan, where to go. Liang Mo was so happy to see her, and seemed to have a trace of interest in going abroad, and the two chatted for a long time, forgetting that there were still two classes before school ended.
On the second day, Liang Molian came to confirm that Yuan Anqi was indeed fine, and he talked with her for a while, and finally invited her to attend the fifty-fifth birthday banquet of his father Old Man Liang half a month later.
This has to be a sweet thing for Yuan Anqi, she is swinging her head up at the moment, and she is very relieved to see that there are only a few white clouds in the blue sky. After closing her eyes and swinging for a while, a feeling of discomfort suddenly rose in her heart, and without thinking too much, she opened her eyes and looked around, and saw her graceful aunt and Liang Mosheng standing not far away, looking at herself with a loving gaze.
This kind of "love" is quite mad, Yuan Anqi immediately stretched out her foot to brake the swing, forgot her "hidden disease", rubbed up from the swing suddenly, twisted her hands nervously behind her back, she walked to the two of them hard, first asked "Hello Auntie", and then slowly said "Brigade Commander Liang".
Like all elders who met their juniors, Liang Mosheng touched her black hair that was slightly hot from the sun, and said, "I haven't seen you for half a year, the girl has grown taller." ”
Then he walked to the small white-painted swing and sat down, at such a moment, Yuan Anqi looked at her aunt as if asking for help, but Dong Yu only gave her a meaningful look, and the two followed to Qianqiu.
Yuan Anqi half-lowered her eyelids, only to see Liang Mosheng's long legs wearing light gray trousers, and she was surprised in her heart, "How can anyone have such long legs." Then I heard her aunt speak: "An Qi, Brigade Commander Liang fought a winter battle in Tianjin, and he came here to see you when he returned to Beiping, but you have a word with someone." ”
"What did I say?" Yuan Anqi was stunned and said, he almost didn't choke Dong Yun to death, this kid is an elm head, and he wasted a good pair of skins in vain.
Yuan Anqi was quite dependent on her aunt at first, hoping that Dong Yun would save the scene, but she saw her aunt's black eyes sink, and she flipped up sharply, giving her a sharp white eye. Standing aside, discouraged, she still didn't know how to speak.
After the aunt and nephew's play was finished, Liang Mochang kicked his legs, stood up, and said concisely and clearly: "It's still early today, so let me take it to Xiangshan for a trip." Dong Yun reacted quickly and pushed Yuan Anqi, who was stunned on the side, "Why don't you go and change your clothes so that you can follow Brigade Commander Liang to climb the mountain." ”
She had to trot upstairs to change her clothes and shoes.
A quarter of an hour later, she changed into her blue cotton shoes, took off her previous skirt, and wore dove-gray high-waisted trousers. In the end, she tied a neat ponytail and went downstairs, she didn't see Dong Yun and Liang Mosheng, she looked around for a while, only to hear a voice from the bamboo bush: "girl", it turned out that Liang Mosheng had already sent the car and was waiting for her at the back door.
Dong Yun saw them off at the back door, smiling reluctantly, but his heart was like a frying pan, and he was so angry. She looked at the spring sun hanging in the white sun at this time, the golden light was very dazzling, and the thin gold velvet cheongsam she was wearing was suddenly panicked, and at the end it was sticky with the fine sweat soaked out of the vest, which was very unpleasant.
"Brigade Commander Liang, are you still in Min County?" Yuan Anqi stubbornly looked for a topic.
"Still there, what? Do you still want to go? Liang Mosheng glanced at her while driving, Yuan Anqi's chin was not too sharp, but round and euphemistically bent, it was a standard goose egg face.
