Chapter 77: Confession
An Yi looked at the gold necklace in his hand, wrapped it in a square cloth, put it in his handbag, looked at his watch, and it was time to make an appointment with the old professor. She put on a blue coat, took out a pair of flats from the shoe closet, and went out with a handbag.
In the yard, he heard the rumbling sound of the locomotive, opened the iron gate, and Zhang Wei stopped in front of him on a motorcycle.
"What a coincidence!"
"Where are you going?" he said, turning off the engine, his voice clear.
"Take a trip to the museum. ”
"I'll send you. ”
"No, it's delaying your trip. ”
"I was an idler who wanted something big, and when I saw that the weather was good, I closed the bar and came out to ride. Zhang Wei took out a helmet from the trunk and handed it over, "Come on, I can just give you a ride." ”
It's also good, the handbag contains valuables, and if you squeeze the bus and let the pickpocket go along, it will be wronged.
"I'm sorry for you. She took the helmet, straightened her braids, and put them on.
Motorcycles enter the city, the museum is located in the west of the city, it used to be a suburb of the city, with the expansion of the city, there has long been a lot of traffic, high-rise residences, traffic jams for three or four hours is not a big deal, fortunately motorcycles can pass.
Zhang Wei parked the car under the steps at the door, "Will there be anything serious about staying?"
An Yi returned the helmet to him and said, "I'm semi-unemployed now, I don't have anything to do, if this trip doesn't go well, I'll be really unemployed." ”
"Good luck!"
An Yi waved goodbye, climbed the high steps, and entered the museum alone. Because it is not a weekend, there are occasionally two visitors inside, and the relics are still in the tempered glass.
As she ascends the stairs, she meets a familiar man.
"Yo, isn't this Anyi?"
"Xu Hui. ”
This man is thirty-one years old, with a receding hairline on his forehead, thick eyebrows and small eyes, a height of 1.6 meters, and the corners of his mouth are particularly upturned, giving people a shrewd feeling.
He used to be An Yi's boss and rival, after the retirement of the director of the Institute of Archaeology, he was the most likely to take over, but because An Yi discovered the tomb of Di Xin, made great contributions, and was appreciated by the superiors, the relationship between the two became delicate, and it is difficult to say who the dean is. If it weren't for the changes in Anyi, there would have been a real chance to be a chance.
Xu Hui glanced at her, "How do you have time to visit the museum?"
"I happened to be passing by to see the old professor. The old professor is also the mentor of the two, and because of his advanced age, he rarely participates in on-site excavations and only organizes some academic research.
"I heard that after you left the institute, you became a waitress in a restaurant, which restaurant is it? ”
"Sorry, I'm not a waiter. ”
"Oh, that's a shame. Xu Hui said, "Don't get me wrong, I'm not falling into a well." ”
"I didn't think of anything else. An Yi turned and walked upstairs.
The old professor was in his office, observing a bronze dagger with a magnifying glass, and his left eye was magnified several times. Seeing An Yi coming in, he rolled his eyes and asked, "Don't you have to go to the husband who ran away from home?"
She looked down and replied, "He's back." ”
The professor snapped and put the magnifying glass on the table, then bent down again to see if the bronze dagger had been damaged, frowned, and said, "That bastard man still has the face to come back, he ruined your archaeological work, and you are going to be some kind of bullshit waiter." ”
"It's not his fault alone, I used to focus on work to get to where I am now. ”
The professor sighed, "In our business, where there is excavation work, where to go, it is naturally difficult for families to take care of it." I think you love this work, but you are willing to be a waiter for the sake of your husband, I really wronged you. ”
"In the past, I did ignore him. ”
The professor put away the dagger, "Let's not talk about him, what do you say I should see?"
An Yi took out the cloth bag and put it on the table, revealing a corner of the dark yellow necklace.
The professor's eyes widened suddenly, he picked up a magnifying glass, and leaned on the table to observe, "This text, in color, must be at least two thousand years old, my God, this is a treasure." I'll have to let Lao Chen take a look. He asked An Yi's opinion, and after getting her nod, he took the phone and dialed it.
Fifteen minutes passed, and Lao Chen arrived, he was a classmate of the old professor and a provincial cultural relics expert.
"Lao Chen, come over and take a look at this good thing. The old professor beckoned, and he was not polite.
"Wow, that's a shame. ”
The two artifact nerds fiddled with the gold necklace and discussed it for a while.
"Anyi, where did you get it from? Lao Chen asked.
"Accidentally got it while traveling in Egypt. She replied.
"It's a priceless treasure, and you're in luck. Lao Chen said.
The old professor smiled, "An Yi has always been lucky, otherwise how could he have found the ancient tomb when he returned to his hometown." ”
"Yes, yes, if you don't work as an archaeologist, it's really a loss to the cultural relics community. Lao Chen said.
"I would like to donate the necklace to the museum. An Yi said.
The two seniors glanced at each other and turned their gaze to her.
The old professor patted her on the shoulder and said, "An Yi, you have to think about it, this thing is worth tens of millions, as a senior, I appreciate your righteous deeds, but as a teacher, I know your current living situation, do you want to think about it." ”
"Now that I've brought it here, I've figured it out. An Yi said, "I'm going to donate it, but I have a request." ”
"What request?"
"I'm going back to my old job. ”
Lao Chen clapped his palms, "This is a good thing for double happiness." Don't worry, I'll definitely go back and help you press the line. ”
"Thank you, Curator Chen. ”
Already talking about this, the old professor can only swallow the words to his heart, he is contradictory, as a cultural relics worker naturally encourages this feat, but he is more heartbroken for his students, this year, he has lost weight every time he sees her, the original unit said to open people, completely ignoring her past contributions, she worked as a small clerk, waiter, and suffered in search of her husband.
An Yi came out of the museum, and Zhang Wei was still waiting outside the door.
"Why aren't you leaving?"
He smiled, "Wait for you." ”
She looked at her watch, and the wait was two hours, "I didn't let you wait, and besides, I don't know when the talk will be over, if I don't come out in the afternoon, will you wait here for half a day?"
"I'll wait, you don't live in it forever, even if it's night, I'm willing. ”
"And someone as stupid as you?"
He smiled and handed her the helmet, "No, this one, no semicolon." ”
"You're too idle. An Yi put on his helmet and stepped into the back seat of the motorcycle.
Zhang Wei twisted the key, there was no engine, turned his head and asked, "Did things go well?"
"Of course. She curled the corners of her mouth, "Because I have a secret weapon." ”
Zhang Wei's gaze froze, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
An Yi saw that he was stunned, and he didn't start the motorcycle, "What's the matter, is the car broken?"
"An Yi, I haven't seen you laugh for a long time, it's so beautiful. ”
She tapped on his helmet, "You're complaining that I haven't been to the bar for too long?"
He turned back and started his motorcycle, "Sit down, I know the scenery on the embankment is beautiful, let's go for a walk." ”
The wind blew in her face, the sun fell on the river, sparkling waves, the willows on both sides of the river drooped low, she took a deep breath, even if there was no Wen Tao like a great poet, it did not prevent her from taking in the scenery along the way.
The locomotive went all the way forward, its body naturally leaning over as it cornered, and the roar of the engine made an undercurrent in her heart, and she finally knew that the reason why he liked to ride a motorcycle was because of the desire to chase freedom.
After a hearty run, the motorcycle stopped on the side of the road, and the two came to a small pavilion near the water to rest.
An Yi was next to the guardrail, and the ferry on the river was far away, "It's all you rich people who know how to enjoy life, I used to be only busy with work, and even honey travel is ranked in work-related places, and I feel bad when I think about it." ”
Zhang Wei's eyes sank, "Everyone also has their own helplessness. ”
An Yi nodded, "You closed the door of the bar early, and you must have encountered something when you came here, right?"
"My parents chose a marriage for me. ”
"This is a modern version of forced marriage. ”
Zhang Chuan smiled bitterly, "The woman's family is good, the most important thing is to know how to run a business, my parents have long not expected me to be able to succeed the family business, so the daughter-in-law must be a strong woman in the shopping mall." ”
"Did you say yes?"
He shook his head, "I've been hesitating, if it had been before, I might have said yes, but now I can't do that, because I have someone hidden in my heart." ”
"Oh, so you have a crush. An Yi said, "If it matters, you can take her home and confess to your parents, maybe they will accept her." ”
He bit his lip and said, "I can't do this, they won't agree." ”
"She's not in a good situation?"
He shook his head.
"She's so ugly. ”
He smiled, then shook his head.
"Then I can't guess. ”
He said, "She is a married woman. ”
"Ahh
"I don't know. He said, "I don't dare to confess to her yet." ”
She scratched her scalp, "This has to be a bit tricky, first, your parents are against it, and second, you have become a third party who destroys the happiness of other people's families." ”
Zhang Wei gritted his teeth and said: "She is not happy, his husband is a bastard, he doesn't deserve her." ”
An Yi pinched his chin and thought deeply for a while, put his arm on his shoulder and said, "In that case, you confess to her, maybe she will agree." ”
He turned to her, "Can I really?"
She nodded, "Go, boy, speak out loud to her." ”
Zhang Wei took her hand, put it on his chest, pursed his lips and said: "Anyi, since the first time you stepped into the bar, my eyes can't leave you, it was raining lightly that day, you were wearing a white shirt, there were raindrops on your face, sitting on the bar and asking me for a glass of brandy, drink it dry in one go, your dignified, your movements, every look, deeply touched my soul, these days, I close my eyes every night and appear like you, Anyi, what should I do, I am in love with you." ”
An Yi froze, and then smiled again, "Oh, you're using me as a practice object, the lines are great, don't worry." ”
Zhang Wei took a step forward and hugged her tightly.
