Chapter 13: Anna Karenina
He Tian and He Ziqiu stayed in Pengcheng for a week, and in the next few days, He Ziqiu accompanied He Tian to go around during the day, to see Pengcheng during this period, and bought some souvenirs by the way, but most of the souvenirs in Pengcheng in this era are some things from Xiangjiang, and Pengcheng itself is a new city, and there are no specialties.
In the evening, He Ziqiu will go to eat with He Mei, or the mother and son will go for a walk and go shopping, each time the time is longer and longer, He Tian himself went to buy some gold for investment, after all, the appreciation of gold in the next few years is still quite stable.
Before Li Jianjian blew up the phone, the two stepped on the train home, He Mei and Ziqiu left each other's phone numbers, and the rest of their lives are long, so the two slowly get along and run in.
Anyway, both of them love each other, so leave the knots in their hearts to time to heal.
......
After returning from Pengcheng, He Ziqiu and He Mei would call and chat on the phone for three days, although they didn't talk very long each time, but it was obvious that Ziqiu was a lot more cheerful.
Because of this, He Ziqiu also specially asked He Tian to get some money, and his own pocket money was used up for phone bills.
Ziqiu didn't want to tell his family about this, and if he wanted to announce it, he Ziqiu would decide for himself, but he couldn't hide it from Li Haichao, otherwise Li Haichao might be sad if he found out in the future.
He Tian looked for a night, and while the noodle shop was closed, a person ran to help Li Haichao clean up, and He Tian did not do this less since he was a child, so the two quickly cleaned up the noodle shop.
He Tian took a bottle of Li Haichao's favorite liquor from the cabinet, then took a bottle of Fat Boy Happy Water from the refrigerator, and then took a plate from the kitchen and filled some peanuts for Li's father to drink.
Dad Li said with a playful face: "Ouch, what day, you are an adult, why don't you try to drink some wine?" Have a couple of drinks with Dad, right? ”
He Tian pulled Li Haichao to sit down, picked up the wine bottle and poured him a glass of wine: "No, no, no, another day, Dad, I have something to tell you." ”
Li Haichao took a sip of the wine in the cup, sandwiched two peanuts and threw them into his mouth: "Okay, you say, whatever you ask Dad Li depends on you." ”
He Tian organized the language in his mind and said, "Didn't I say that I went to Guangdong Province with Ziqiu to inspect the situation of the university?" Actually, we didn't just do this thing that time, I took Ziqiu to see his mother. ”
Li Haichao was stunned, he didn't expect this kid to suddenly give himself such a play, and after a while, he stammered: "You.... How did you..... Know where Hemei is? Have you asked your father Ling to help investigate? Didn't he tell me? ”
He Tian repeated what he had said to He Ziqiu before, and also told Dad Li about He Mei's situation.
The amount of information was a little big all of a sudden, and Dad Li continued to be stunned, and his hand unconsciously wanted to clip peanuts, but he couldn't pick it up.
He Tian didn't speak, picked up the wine bottle and poured wine for Li Haichao, and watched Li Haichao take another sip and then take a few peanuts to feed Li Haichao.
After a full ten minutes, Li Haichao came to his senses: "So, He Mei actually doesn't really want to abandon Ziqiu, is there no way?" ”
He Tian answered: "I can't say anything about this, I just think Aunt He Mei can still understand, she has encountered and considered too many things, and people who have too many ideas often do things badly." But it can be seen that she loves Ziqiu, and Ziqiu also loves his mother, don't usually hear Ziqiu talk about Aunt He Mei without any good words, but in the past few days in Pengcheng, he would secretly have fun every night after coming back with Aunt He Mei. In the middle of the night, sometimes I dream and laugh. ”
He Tian tried to speak as slowly as possible, allowing Li Haichao to accept the information slowly, and then said, "Doesn't Ziqiu have a mobile phone now?" After coming back from Pengcheng, he would hide in the room or run to the rooftop to call his mother every once in a while, you didn't notice that the noodle shop was busy, Jianjian and Ling Xiao asked him several times if he had any little secrets, and he also came to ask me if Ziqiu had a favorite girl or was in love. ”
Li Haichao thought about it for a while, and indeed He Ziqiu's child seemed to be hiding in the room a little more times, and he thought that this child was close to the college entrance examination, so he hid in the room to brush up on the questions.
I didn't expect it to call He Mei.
Li Haichao looked at He Tian: "Such a big thing, why didn't you two tell me earlier?"
He Tian knew that he couldn't take advantage of it, so he took a cup for himself and filled it with wine, and took a sip: "Dad, I know this is not right, I just don't want you to be upset about this, I apologize to you." ”
Li Haichao didn't really want to blame the two children, but adults always felt that this kind of big thing should be handled by adults, and the two children in his eyes were inevitably a little uncomfortable when they skipped them, so they directly borrowed the steps and said: "That... What the is going on with Ziqiu now? ”
He Tian raised his eyebrows and said, "Actually, I didn't ask too much, after all, these are also Ziqiu's privacy, thinking that he is willing to talk about it in the future." However, I sleep in the same room as Ziqiu, I can see a lot of things he doesn't say, I think the relationship between the two of them is quite good now, after all, after so many years, I still have to take my time. ”
"Hey, Dad, what do you think about this matter?"
Li Haichao: ".... If Ziqiu and his mother can recognize each other, it's actually a good thing, and I know if Ziqiu wants to him for so many years. And you just talked about He Mei's situation, so you can't blame He Mei, people sometimes have to look at luck. ”
"Dad, I knew you would think so. However, I just have another meaning, that is, what do you think of Aunt Hemei? ”
Li Haichao was blindsided all of a sudden, what is this kid asking, am I exposed?
He Tian had a wicked smile on his face: "I heard Aunt Qian say that when you and Aunt He Mei went on a blind date, weren't you quite satisfied with Aunt He Mei?" You haven't found a partner for so many years, isn't it normal for you to have any ideas? ”
Li Haichao's face turned red all of a sudden: "I... I.... I.... It's been so many years, what else can you think? I'm not looking for a partner, not all.... It's all ..... Yes, can't you find one that fits your eyes? ”
I haven't been able to find a match for ten years, which is really a full denial of the work of the aunts of the neighborhood committee.
smashed his mouth, He Tian rubbed his face with both hands: "Well, I didn't say anything." I just want to tell you, I have unlimited support for you to find a companion, Jianjian used to be afraid that her stepmother would abuse her, and now she also told me that she thinks it is best for you to find a companion and you will not be too lonely in the future, Ling Xiao has no opinion, Ziqiu, hasn't he always been insecure, and feels indebted to this family, I think he will be much more comfortable if he loses his mother. Or do you have to think about it with difficulty? ”
Li Haichao's face turned even redder, half of it was shy, he was teased by his son in person, and on the other hand, he was also a little excited.
He Tian took out a book from the schoolbag he brought and handed it to Li Haichao: "Dad, I think you can read this book when you are fine." You just thought about Aunt Hemei's matter, I just remembered that Jianjian asked me to bring her something, I have to go first or the supermarket will close. After saying that, He Tian slipped away directly with his schoolbag.
Behind him, Li Haichao looked stupidly at the book handed over by He Tian, he hadn't read the content of the book, but he remembered the name of the book very clearly, "Anna Karenina......
He Tian ran to a dark place and turned around to look at Dad Li who was sitting in the hall in a daze, the children are going to college one after another, and they are slowly no longer around, Li Haichao and He Mei are actually quite compatible, it would be good if they could be together too early, there is no need to wait for nine years and ten years like in the original play.
I hope Li Haichao can be brave, and on the title page of the book, He Tian wrote the phone number of He Mei who asked for He Ziqiu, and there is only so much that can be done for the time being, it depends on how Dad Li chooses.
