Chapter 19: The Little Gathering

Traveling far away from home, when you come back, you will inevitably feel timid.

Wu Zhou took a taxi back to the countryside from the city's high-speed rail station and got off at the junction of the main road and the small road. It was inconvenient to drive into the trail, and Wu Zhou didn't embarrass the taxi master.

As soon as I took out my luggage, I saw my parents coming over.

Dad took the luggage directly, and Mom hugged Wu Zhou and patted it here or there.

"I've been in the car for so long, I'm tired, I'm hungry, your grandma stewed chicken for you, I'll eat some later." Mom took Wu Zhou's hand and walked back.

On the way, many neighbors would greet Wu Zhou with a smile when they saw him.

"The boat is back."

"The college students are back."

“......”

Most of the children in the village are left-behind children, and their learning is completely autonomous, and their parents are laissez-faire and playful, so they go out to work.

As a result, most children drop out of junior high school or high school, and the proportion of children who go to college is much smaller than that in the city.

Like Wu Zhou's parents' generation, the highest education of hundreds of people in the village is high school.

And Wu Zhou is the same age, and there are only two and three people in the village who went to college.

So when Wu Zhou was admitted to university, even if it was a second- or third-rate undergraduate college, Wu Zhou's parents were still happy.

Occasionally, gossip, someone said something tasteful, so-and-so in the next village, and Wu Zhou's parents laughed.

"Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, and it is good to be admitted to university."

When I got home, I couldn't avoid the meeting of the seven aunts and eight aunts.

The house was a lot more lively all at once.

The closest relative to Wu Zhou is his cousin, who is five years older, but he dropped out of junior high school.

When Wu Zhou was a child, he was almost brought by his cousin to play with him, and the two often fought and had a good relationship.

But since he dropped out of school, went out to work, got married early and had children, and a series of things, the contact with each other has suddenly decreased.

During the year, I met a few times during the Chinese New Year and had a brief chat, but I couldn't find any topics.

One has been in society for many years and has even married and had children, while the other is still in school.

This time when I returned to the village for the Chinese New Year, I was very comfortable.

The only thing that may be uncomfortable is the dry toilet that I am not used to, and the smell is a bit flushing......

Wu Zhou even thought about finding someone to figure it out, but who would come out to work during the Chinese New Year.

In the past, the sparsely populated village was full of people because of the arrival of the New Year.

Hang out with each other, chat, play cards, and more.

The above entertainment items are not Wu Zhou's preferences.

Wu Zhou is at home, at home...... Occasionally look at the background performance, it is called a miserable one, and now the daily traffic can be put to the limit of more than 1,000, and it is still declining, or chat with Han Xinyan.

Most of Wu Zhou's father's brothers and sisters live in the same village, the uncle is relatively close to his family, and his cousin and sister-in-law often bring their children over to play.

"You are such a handsome guy, staying at home every day, isn't it a waste of resources." The sister-in-law joked at Wu Zhou.

Fortunately, two days before Chinese New Year's Eve, someone organized a junior high school reunion, and after being bored, they agreed.

But in my memory, my classmates in junior high school laughed and played with each other, which was very pure.

The reality is that most of them have already stepped into society early, and have learned to smoke, drink, brag, and talk about making money, and some even have wives and children.

Of course, many college students are not necessarily much better after graduating and working......

However, those who are still in school are still slightly better.

During the dinner, smoking and drinking were permeated, reminiscing about the beginning, chatting about the interesting stories of who and who had not been able to come, and what someone had been doing recently.

Between the banquets, Huang Liang said to Wu Zhou, who had always been relatively quiet. This gathering is what he organized.

There were more than a dozen of them, and most of them were men, and there were only 3 female classmates.

And they are all classmates who used to go to school and had nothing to do with Wu Zhou.

"Wu Zhou, the older the young man gets, the more handsome he gets, let's talk about girlfriends in college."

"Not yet." Wu Zhou smiled and waved his hand.

"Impossible, aren't you asking too much?" A girl stared at Wu Zhou and said.

When I was in junior high school, most of my classmates were still relatively simple.

But after adulthood, the nature of 'animals' awakens, and handsome guys and beauties become different.

Beauty is a scarce resource, and so are handsome guys.

Wu Zhou is very low-key, so low-key that he hardly takes the initiative to say anything. But his demeanor is actually different from everyone else.

If you are careful, you can see that Wu Zhou's smile has always been very gentle and very calm when he is at the party.

Of course, this will also attract the attention of some people, some people like it, and of course it will make some people hate it, thinking that it is 'pretending to be 13', which makes them dislike.

When they heard Wu Zhou say that he didn't have a girlfriend, these people had a mocking smile on their faces.

What about college students, how handsome they look, no, there is still no object.

Even if he graduated from college, he still has a bunch of people with a salary of only three or five thousand, which is worse than him.

"This thing is fate!" Wu Zhou said, but the mobile phone shook.

It was Han Xinyan's message

The more frequent the communication, the closer the relationship between the two became, and the chat became much more casual.

"What are you doing? /Curious"

"At dinner, junior high school reunion, what about you?"

"I'm lying at home. Are there any female classmates? ”

"My junior high school is not a monk's temple, and there must still be female donors."

"Yo, boy, there's a blessing. Humph......"

"Others are like clouds to me."

"What about me, too?"

"No, you are a pit, a pit for people, a pit for goods, a pit for goods...... originally thought that the two of them would forget about each other since that time, but they never thought that the world was unpredictable.

"Let's find a fight. Look at my big fist in a casserole," said Han Xinyan and posted a photo of his small fist.

The slender white and tender little hand is obviously seriously inconsistent with the big fist of the casserole.

Wu Zhou smiled knowingly.

"I'm grass, you kid, liar, didn't you just say you don't have a girlfriend?" A classmate next to him turned sideways and saw Wu Zhou's chat interface.

immediately accused Wu Zhou.

The girl who was still asking Wu Zhou a question on the other side instantly turned cold.

"Not yet." Wu Zhou replied.

"Look at your YD smile, it's probably not far away, do you have a photo of your brother and sister, take a look." Huang Liang also came over lively.

But Wu Zhou put away his phone.

He had the photo, but he kept the pajama photo, and that photo must not be shown to others.

"Not yet, not yet......," Wu Zhou smiled again and waved his hand.

After Huang Liang left, Wu Zhou picked up the phone again. Just a moment later, the phone vibrated several times in a row.

"Where am I pitted?" "Why is it a pit" "You explain it to me clearly, otherwise it will make you look good......"

Han Xinyan let out a string of smiles.

"You're still good-looking." Wu Zhou replied.

At this moment, Han Xinyan on the other end of the phone smiled instantly.

"Why are you so good at talking, why didn't you find out before."

Wu Zhou in the past would definitely not talk like this, he didn't have that experience, but after all, he was not only the Wu Zhou of Blue Star but also the Wu Zhou of the Earth.

"Did you know me well before?"

"I ...... It seems that I have to get to know you again, my dad often said, I don't know people and faces, but I don't know what your heart is like. ”

"Uncle is right, so, come on, pit goods, there is a long way to go, you still have a long way to go."

"You're a pit, you're a big pit......"

The junior high school party was still relatively boring, and Wu Zhou couldn't talk to most of them, and after eating, he transferred his share of the money to Huang Liang, and Wu Zhou was leaving.

"Leave so early, play a little longer, I'll drive here, I'll send you back then?" A classmate said, and shook one of his Buick car keys as he spoke.

"No, no, I'm still riding a little electric donkey."

Wu Zhou is calm, and some classmates are not calm.

Of course, not being calm is for the one who speaks.

"Amazing, Mr. Liu, I have a ...... car at a young age"

"No, no, the company sees that my performance is good, and I will match it."

"What line of work is Mr. Liu doing now?"

"Real Estate ......"

"Real estate is on fire, making a lot of money, this is ......"

Someone's eyes lit up.

But there are also people who whisper,

"It's not just selling houses."

In life, except for the closest person, no one wants you to live well, especially better than him.
