Cheng Mengshan now lives in the school's faculty dormitory, and the school allocated him a dormitory after he stayed in school, although it was only a tube building and the room was not big, but Cheng Mengshan was already very content.

Now I have brought my wife and children here, I have a room with my wife, and two children have a room, and I live happily like this.

Cheng Mengshan's wife is a rural woman, although she is not beautiful and has a low level of education, she can be seen to be a good wife and mother. Moreover, Cheng Mengshan is now working as a teaching assistant in the school, eating imperial food and receiving a salary, although the income is not very high, but the family life is no problem.

The days are getting better and better day by day, the dream is gradually coming true, and Cheng Mengshan has more smiles on his face.

Looking at his children, he hopes that his children can receive a better education than himself, thrive in Yanjing, and when the children grow up, they will be admitted to university like himself, and then start a family, then there will be no regrets.

Song Yuanchao and Cheng Mengshan have been classmates for four years and know him very well.

Although Cheng Mengshan has such and such shortcomings, including some of his careful thoughts, these Song Yuanchao understands in his heart, but no matter what, Cheng Mengshan is not a person in essence, just because of his background and desire to change his life, in some cases, he pays attention to some practical interests.

These are not a problem, everyone always has such an idea, no one is perfect, if Song Yuanchao is in the situation of Cheng Mengshan, it may be the same choice.

Because it was a chance encounter in shopping, Song Yuanchao and Cheng Mengshan's family didn't talk for too long, and learned that Song Yuanchao would celebrate the New Year in Yanjing, Cheng Mengshan smiled and made an appointment with Song Yuanchao, and waited for a few days for the two families to get together together, and the location was in Cheng Mengshan's dormitory, bring all the wives and children, and have a good chat.

Bidding farewell to Cheng Mengshan's family, Song Yuanchao turned back to Dashilar and bought a sugar gourd again, and then went home, and when he arrived at home, the two children were happy to see the sugar gourd.

The child has gradually grown up, and he can already walk and run, and even speak slowly.

Song Yuanchao held one in one hand and put it on his lap, teasing the two children with a sugar gourd, and at the same time chatted with Lin Yan on the side about meeting Cheng Mengshan today.

"Lao Cheng can be regarded as having survived, now there are not many people staying in the school, and there is a shortage of teachers, he may be able to evaluate a lecturer or something if he works hard for a few years, and it is possible to evaluate an associate professor after ten years."

Song Yuanchao said with emotion, and Lin Yan on the side nodded in agreement: "Lao Cheng's personality is still better in school, if he really goes to a government unit like him, maybe he won't be used to it." ”

Lin Yan's opinion is also Song Yuanchao's view, compared with units and institutions, the ivory tower is the most suitable for Cheng Mengshan, and although the income of a teacher in a university does not seem high now, it is not bad compared to many jobs.

In addition, with the passage of time, the status and income of university teachers will continue to increase, and after ten or twenty years, this profession is the envy of many people.

From Cheng Mengshan to several other college classmates, Song Yuanchao and his wife couldn't help but sigh about their college career that had gradually faded away.

It's been a few days since I graduated in a blink of an eye, and the classmates who used to get along with each other in the past are now separated, and I don't know how everyone is doing.

Now it is not as good as the future generations, and there is no WeChat circle of friends, even a landline phone is a luxury.

After leaving the campus, it is very difficult to reunite, and it is especially difficult to reunite with classmates in the future, and I don't know when I will have the opportunity.

"Daddy...... Father....... In the midst of emotion, Yang Yang suddenly shouted, Song Yuanchao looked down, this kid was full of sugar gourd slag, and the hairs on the side were similar, the two little guys had already eaten up the two on the sugar gourd, and the lower ones were hungry for a long time because they couldn't bite on the strings, so they were so anxious that they reached out and dragged Song Yuanchao to ask him for help.

Song Yuanchao smiled and helped them move the sugar gourd below, watching the two little guys continue to eat deliciously, looking at the cute appearance of the child, Song Yuanchao's heart was full of happiness.

Jinling, Site Company.

Song Yuanchao returned to Yanjing ahead of schedule, but Sun Yaoliang still stayed in the company.

As the company's vice president and general manager of the sales company, Sun Yaoliang's work is extremely busy, especially in these days near the end of the year.

With the relevant adjustment of the marketing department, the sales company has also made certain adjustments, and the results of the adjustment are satisfactory at present, which makes Sun Yaoliang, who was originally a little dissatisfied with the marketing department, have changed, and at the same time began to pay more attention to the work of the marketing department.

After dealing with the work at hand, Sun Yaoliang noticed that the sky outside had been dark for a long time, and more than an hour had passed before he got off work.

Stretching, Sun Yaoliang stood up and walked a few steps around the office, and after thinking about it, he got up and found a plate of instant noodles from the cabinet behind him.

Now the company's office instant noodles are always available, as the general manager of the sales company, Sun Yaoliang has prepared a lot, although this thing is easy to lose your appetite if you eat too much, but sometimes overtime, instant noodles are still the most convenient and suitable food, which is much better than gnawing cold biscuits.

Unpacked and put a bowl in it, Sun Yaoliang picked up the hot water bottle on the side and shook it, and found that there was no hot water in the hot water bottle.

He picked up the thermos and left the office, went straight to the boiling water room near the west side of the corridor to get hot water, lit a cigarette between hot water, and pondered the work schedule for the past few days.

"Yaoliang!" Just thinking about something, a familiar greeting came from behind him, and Sun Yaoliang turned his head and saw that it was Ying Annie.

"You haven't gotten off work yet?" Sun Yaoliang was stunned for a moment and asked subconsciously.

"I'm getting ready to leave work." Ying Annie held the teacup and said with a smile, seeing her like this, Sun Yaoliang understood that she was here to wash the cup.

"You wash first." Sun Yaoliang hurriedly turned off the hot water first, and carried a hot water bottle to make way for the place.

"Catch water?" Ying Anne glanced at the thermos and asked.

"Well, instant bowl noodles."

"What? Planning to work overtime? ”

"Hehe, it's okay to go back anyway, it's a holiday in a few days, and a lot of work before the year is pondering, and it's very troublesome to adjust if the arrangement is not appropriate." Sun Yaoliang replied with a smile.

Ying Annie frowned, although instant noodles are convenience food, but eating this is not nutritious, Sun Yaoliang has been watching Sun Yaoliang's hard work these days, it turns out that when Sun Yaoliang and Song Yuanchao lived in the Ying family's old house together, they could still have a meal at Grandma Sun's side when they got back from work.

But then Song Yuanchao moved away first, not long after he moved away, Sun Yaoliang also moved, now Sun Yaoliang lives alone, it is difficult for a man to take care of himself alone, although he and Grandma Sun have always asked Sun Yaoliang to continue to get off work and partner as before, but Sun Yaoliang is busy with work, and secondly, he may not be able to wipe his face, so he rarely goes again.

"Don't eat this, I didn't eat dinner, let's go! Eat with me. Ying Annie said as she took Sun Yaoliang's hot water bottle in one hand.

"Anne...... I....... Sun Yaoliang was stunned, and just about to say something, Annie Ying gave him a blank look: "What?" Don't want to eat with me? ”

"Of course not, it's just ...... My noodles are all dismantled, and if I don't eat them, ......won't it be wasted? Sun Yaoliang didn't know what to say for a while, so he thought about it and barely found such a reason.

Ying Annie sneered, she shook her head and said, "A plate of instant noodles is still so important?" If you don't eat it, let it go, okay, don't be a big man, mother-in-law, go! Come with me! ”

After speaking, Ying Annie turned around and left, Sun Yaoliang hesitated before hurriedly following.

After leaving the company, it was already early on outside, and Jinling was still a little cold in winter, Sun Yaoliang walked forward with Annie Ying, and saw Annie Ying tighten her coat, and after thinking about it, she took off her scarf directly.

"It's windy, this is ...... for you."

Sun Yaoliang said with some hesitation, his face was slightly feverish, and he didn't dare to look at Ying Annie with his head down, for fear that the other party would refuse.

"Thank you." Ying Annie generously took Sun Yaoliang's scarf and put it directly around her neck, watching her action, Sun Yaoliang breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at the same time.

They went to a small restaurant not far from the company, this is a private restaurant, the food is not bad, Ying Anne has come a few times, and after entering the door, she is very familiar with the restaurant owner to say hello, and then take Sun Yaoliang to find an empty table and sit down.

ordered a few side dishes and asked Sun Yaoliang if he wanted to drink, Sun Yaoliang didn't care, and said that Ying Annie could accompany her to drink a few glasses if she wanted to.

Ying Annie thought about it and called a bottle of rice wine, and asked the boss to help heat it up, and after a while, the food and wine came up, Sun Yaoliang picked up the wine and filled it for Ying Annie, and after pouring it himself, he raised the wine glass and suggested to take one.

"Come on! Together! Ying Annie touched the wine glass with Sun Yaoliang very heartily, raised her hand and drank it all.

"Drink slowly, choke carefully." Seeing that she drank so quickly, Sun Yaoliang hurriedly said.

"It's okay, I used to drink rice wine abroad, don't forget that my family used to open a restaurant." Ying Annie said with a smile.

"Yes, yes, I almost forgot." Sun Yaoliang smiled dumbly, but he still asked Ying Annie to eat first and drink slowly.

The two chatted while drinking, and after two glasses of wine, the atmosphere was much more harmonious, and the conversation was much more casual.

Ying Annie and Sun Yaoliang first chatted about some work matters, talked about the year-end sales and marketing arrangements, Sun Yaoliang carefully told her some of his own arrangements and ideas, for Sun Yaoliang's views and arrangements in this regard, Ying Annie agreed.

After talking for a while, Anne Ying asked Sun Yaoliang how he planned to spend the New Year this year.

Sun Yaoliang thought about it and told Annie Ying that he hadn't been back to his hometown for a long time, and he planned to go home for the New Year this time to see his parents.

"Your hometown is in Chang'an?"

"That's right! Changan! Sun Yaoliang nodded, and when he talked about his hometown, he looked a little proud: "Our Chang'an is a good place, Jinling is the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, Chang'an is the ancient capital of the Thirteen Dynasties, there is history everywhere, and every bit is a story." There are also noodles in Chang'an that are also very delicious, there are all kinds of noodles, as well as mutton steamed buns, I will take you to Chang'an if you have the opportunity to go shopping. ”

"You don't have to look for a chance, you can do it this time." Ying Annie suddenly said this, Sun Yaoliang was stunned for a moment, and he didn't react at once.
