Chapter 127: I'm so bored that I start practicing calligraphy
In the afternoon, the sun came out, the breeze was gusting, and the winter breath was not so strong, but it was a little more warm in spring.
There is an endless stream of people who come to play in Bishuitan, most of them are families, and there are also young friends who come in pairs, talking and laughing along the mountain road.
A few days ago, the snow fell heavily, and it was blowing for most of the day, and a thick layer of snow was piled up on the ground. The snow in other places has almost melted, only the blue water pool, in the shade of large and small mountain peaks, you can still see large snowdrifts, dotted among the green pines and cypresses, any photo is the most elegant picture.
Lu Guoming had a New Year's dinner, lay on the bed and was about to take a nap for a while, when he suddenly received a call from Jiang Xuewen. The other party said that taking advantage of the good weather in the afternoon, he brought a professional team and wanted to go to Bishuitan for inspection.
Bishuitan is in Ludian Township, and Lu Guoming, as a nearby resident, naturally knows much more than Jiang Xuewen, a person who has lived outside for more than ten years. Hearing what he said, Lu Guoming didn't hesitate, got up suddenly, and agreed to go together.
He stood in front of the closet and fastened his belt, opened the door and shouted into the living room, "Where is my black coat?" The one I wore yesterday. ”
Xia Zhu sat on the sofa and ate melon seeds and watched TV: "I can see the sun, take it to the yard to dry it, do you want to wear it now?" ”
"Hmm. A trip out, something is a bit of a problem. ”
Lu Guoming went out and put on his coat, took out a roll of tape from the TV cabinet, handed it to Xia Zhu, and asked her to help stick the fluff and dust on the coat.
Xia Zhu threw the melon seeds in his hand into the bamboo basket on the coffee table, got up to take care of him, and asked casually, "What's the matter?" ”
"Secrecy first...... I'll tell you later. Lu Guoming grinned and hesitated.
Xia Zhu slapped him: "The gods are mysterious." ”
Regarding the investment in the resort, Lu Guoming has not yet found a suitable opportunity to discuss with her. He had a plan in his heart, planning to wait for Xia Zhu's birthday in a few days, he personally cooked a table of good dishes, ordered a cake and a bouquet of flowers, and spoke while she was in a good mood.
"Alright." Xia Zhu bit off the used tape with his mouth and threw it into the trash can at his feet.
A message came in the mobile phone, Lu Guoming took it out and saw that it was sent by Jiang Xuewen, asked him where he lived, and took him over by the way.
After waiting at the door for a while, Lu Guoming got into a black business car, Jiang Xuewen sat in the second row, and several men in the back row were members of the professional expedition team in his mouth.
After greeting each other for a while, Jiang Xuewen said to Lu Guoming: "I'm sorry for you, I'll let you run for the New Year." The forecast for the next few days shows another sleet, and the trip is scheduled for this afternoon. ”
"Where, I'm idle at home and nothing else." Lu Guoming couldn't say anything beautiful, rubbed his hands awkwardly, and only smiled.
The two chatted about family trivia.
Jiang Xuewen learned that he had a pair of children, the eldest was a daughter, who was in his second year of high school, and the younger son was still in elementary school.
Lu Guoming explained: "In the middle years, family planning was strict, and the difference between the two children was ten years. The small one was still fined more than 6,000 yuan and was born. I wanted to say no, it's good to have a daughter, but the child is reluctant to give birth. ”
"Hello two children, what can I discuss in the future?" Jiang Xuewen sighed with emotion, "In our era, there were many brothers and sisters, helping each other, and it was so lively. ”
"Yes."
"I have a son in my family, and he is also a sophomore in high school. Estimated to be as old as your daughter. Speaking of the children at home, Jiang Xuewen smiled so much that the corners of his eyes wrinkled, and he looked relieved and proud.
Lu Guoming asked casually: "What year is your child?" ”
"'95." Jiang Xuewen said.
"It's really big." Lu Guoming smiled.
At that time, the age limit for reading was not so strict, and some people went directly to the first grade after finishing preschool.
According to Lu Zhu, the age of the students in her class spanned from 93 to 97.
"Where your children are studying, maybe two people in one school." Jiang Xuewen said, "My son is in Yunshan High School. He transferred from Beicheng, originally wanted to be arranged in Jin Yang No. 1 Middle School, my wife's best friend's two children happened to be studying in Yungao, and we totaled to let him go to Yungao. ”
Lu Guoming said with a look of surprise: "My daughter also reads high school. ”
"Really? Then your daughter must be doing well in school. ”
Lu Guoming shook his head and said modestly: "Upper middle level." After a pause, he sighed and added, "It's her own struggle, and we parents can't help much, I just hope that I can take a book next year, and my mother and I will be content." ”
Jiang Xuewen said: "Individuals have their own creation, don't set the standard to death first, there is still more than a year before the college entrance examination, maybe she will rush again in the third year of high school, the result will exceed your expectations and give you a big surprise." ”
"Promise your good words." Lu Guoming said with a smile.
The group chatted in the car, and before they knew it, they soon arrived at a fork in the road at the foot of Bishuitan Mountain. It is inconvenient to make a U-turn if you drive further in, and the rest of the distance can only be walked.
Several people got out of the car one after another, Jiang Xuewen took out the cigarette case in his trouser pocket, gave cigarettes to several people behind him, and handed it to Lu Guoming, he waved his hand: "I don't smoke." ”
Jiang Xuewen shrugged his eyebrows, a little surprised, he had seen the amount of alcohol he had, he was quite powerful, and he thought that this person was stained with cigarettes and alcohol.
"It's not modesty." Lu Guoming pushed his outstretched arm back.
Jiang Xuewen didn't force it, pinched one between his fingers, took out a lighter from the other trouser pocket, lit it with his hand, and took a sip.
There are constantly people passing by, and they can't help but look at them curiously. Looking at their clothes, all of them are suits and leather shoes with coats, or overalls and jackets with hiking shoes, they look upright and serious, and their aura is powerful, which makes people mistakenly think that they are leaders who come from above to inspect.
"Dad?"
A puzzled voice sounded behind him, Lu Guoming turned around when he heard the sound, he was slightly stunned, and saw a group of teenagers walking towards him, some carrying barbecue grills on their shoulders, some carrying ingredients, and his daughter carrying a bag of charcoal.
"Dad, it's really you!" Lu Yan blinked, ran away from his sister, and rushed over to hug Lu Guoming, "Why are you here?" ”
Lu Guoming was startled by his son who crashed into his arms, but Jiang Xuewen on the side reacted first, took a distance in one hand, and extinguished the half-lit cigarette: "This is your pair of children?" ”
Lu Guoming rubbed Lu Yan's head and messed up his short hair: "Yes." He bowed his head to his son and said, "Call uncle." ”
Lu Yan turned his head and called obediently: "Hello uncle." ”
"Hey, that's good."
Jiang Xuewen nodded with a smile and agreed, touched a few pockets on his body, the temporarily decided itinerary came out in a hurry, he forgot to bring his wallet, and he couldn't realize it if he wanted to wrap a red envelope for his child.
Lu Guoming asked his son: "Your sister said that she took you out to play, just to come to Bishuitan?" ”
"Ah, we're going to have a picnic!" Lu Yan jumped happily and pointed to the few brothers and sisters behind, "Look, we bought a lot of delicious food." ”
Lu Guoming tapped his head with his hand: "As long as your mouth is greedy, your eyes are shining when you mention delicious food." ”
Jiang Xuewen smiled, looked at Lu Zhu who followed behind, his eyes suddenly paused, and he felt that this girl was a little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.
As he gets older, his memory is getting worse and worse, Jiang Xuewen couldn't think of it after thinking about it for a long time, but the more he looked at it, the more familiar it became. Until Lu Zhu looked at him, he hesitated and called: "Uncle Jiang? ”
Jiang Xuewen subconsciously replied: "Ah, it's ......"
This time it was Lu Guoming's turn to be dumbfounded, he looked at his daughter, pointed at Jiang Xuewen in disbelief, and asked her: "You call him Uncle Jiang, how do you know him?" ”
"My classmate's father, we met in the hospital."
Lu Zhu smiled and nodded towards Jiang Xuewen.
After her "prompt", Jiang Xuewen finally remembered that last time Jiang Huaining was sent to the central hospital for treatment because of the girl's injury, the two met briefly in the hospital corridor. At that time, he was worried about Jiang Huaining, and he didn't say a few words to her.
Fate is really amazing, she turned out to be Lu Guoming's daughter.
Lu Guoming's thoughts were still out of the situation, the previous incident was handled by Xia Zhu, and when he came back, he told him that he didn't know enough details, and he hadn't seen the other party's parents.
"Isn't that a coincidence?" Jiang Xuewen patted the arm of Lu Guoming, who was stunned, and said in surprise, "I just said that the two children are in the same school, but I didn't expect that they were classmates, it seems that they are still at the same table, right?" ”
Lu Zhu didn't expect the two fathers to know each other, she had never heard Lu Guoming talk about this person before, the stunned expression on her face didn't fade for a long time, and when she heard the words, she nodded slowly: "Yes." ”
"That's a coincidence." Lu Guoming's performance was even more surprised than his daughter.
He really couldn't believe that there was such a relationship around and around, and Jiang Xuewen was his daughter's father who was the savior.
Jiang Xuewen looked far away, looked at the group of young and energetic young boys and girls behind Lu Zhu, thought of the son at home, sighed and said: "I knew that I would have called Jiang Huaining to come together, he was so bored at home that he began to practice calligraphy." ”
Lu Zhu: "......"
Jiang Huaining was actually practicing calligraphy, and he couldn't imagine it.
Lu Zhu came back to his senses, looked at Lu Guoming, and asked about the confusion in his heart: "Dad, ...... you are?"
Before she finished speaking, Lu Guoming hurriedly pulled her aside, avoided the others, bent his neck and said mysteriously: "Don't tell your mother yet, I'll tell you later." ”
Lu Zhu couldn't understand what he was saying, he was silent for a moment, and said with a smile: "Don't tell my mother, I don't know what you're doing, how can you tell your mother?" ”
"Anyway, don't say you'll see me at Bishuitan today." Lu Guoming patted her on the back, looked at the group of friends waiting for her, and changed the topic, "Don't you want a picnic?" Hurry up and go. Be safe and do not use open flames. ”
Lu Zhu's mind was confused, and he returned to the small group step by step.
