Before I Grow Old + Yokogawa Three Moves (continued) Big and Small Animals (16)

Yao Dongzhi played in Surabaya City for two weeks, Xiao Song and Gu Hengchuan had to go to work, and many times she was wandering around the streets and alleys alone, eating and drinking, and spending money lavishly. Before leaving, she stored the things she bought at Xiao Song's house on the grounds that her suitcase could not fit in, including a laptop, a cast iron teapot, a mechanical walnut clip, a pair of Nike sneakers, a box of Lego Taj Mahal bricks, a box of 1,500 pieces of Neuschwanstein Castle in winter, and a number of original English books.

Yao Dongzhi said that these things are all new, not fiddling with them much, if my cousin doesn't dislike them, they just work. Xiao Song knew her temperament, so she smiled and didn't say anything.

After sending his cousin away, Xiao Song had time to think about his own affairs.

She found the video of "Sifan", watched it patiently for a few minutes, and couldn't stand it, jumping out word by word, babbling and singing too slowly, and her stomach and intestines itched. She searched out the lyrics again and read them from beginning to end, and there were two passages in it that were particularly dazzling, which made her heart a little confused.

One section is "I saw that the arhats on both sides were a little silly, one hugged his knees and comforted his arms, and read me in his mouth; One of them has his hands on his cheeks, thinking of me in his heart; One of them looked at me with tired eyes and eyebrows. Only the cloth bag Arhat laughed, he laughed at me for the wrong time, time has passed, who is willing to marry my old woman. He who descends the dragon annoys me; The tiger hates me; The long-eyebrow fairy worried about me, saying what would happen when I got old. ”

One passage reads, "The slave tore the robe, buried the scriptures, abandoned the wooden fish, and threw away the cymbals." I can't learn the Rakshasa girl to subdue demons, and I can't learn to sit on the water moon in the South China Sea. Late at night, lying alone; When you get up, sit alone. Who is as lonely as me, why is it so shaved? Hate only hate, lying monks and laymen: where is the world's garden trees and Buddhas? Where is the Buddha of Light with branches and leaves? Where is the quicksand Buddha on both sides of the rivers and lakes? Where are the 84,000 Buddhas? From now on, I will stay away from the bell tower and Buddha hall, go down the mountain to find a young brother, and use him to beat me, scold me, talk about me, laugh at me, and do not want to become a Buddha, and do not recite the Buddha Prajnapara. I wish to give birth to a child, but I don't want to kill me happily! ”

Is Gu Hengchuan hinting at her something? Xiao Song was restless.

Life continued, Xiao Song was attentive, watching coldly, Gu Hengchuan was not abnormal, going to work, getting off work, eating, sleeping, raising cats, reading, living a simple and fulfilling life. His heart is like a pool of water, reflecting the birds and the clouds, the birds fly by, the clouds flow, it is still a pool of water, not increasing or decreasing, leaving no traces. Parents, wives and children, affection, love, these things, sooner or later, will eventually disappear, do not bring him comfort, nor do they cause trouble. He lives in his own world, unencumbered and contented.

Xiao Song couldn't guess his thoughts, and he didn't want to think about it behind his back and ask for trouble.

At noon that day, they had a buffet at a hotel, and there were bulb fennel salad, jade snails, and yellow peach pie that Gu Hengchuan liked. Xiao Song turned on his mobile phone, found the lyrics of "Sifan" to show him, and asked him if he had the idea of getting married and having children.

Gu Hengchuan laughed, among the thousand young women, there was no one like Xiao Song, who asked directly if he had any doubts, and spread out his words. He shook his head and said gently but firmly, "No, my mind hasn't changed. Marriage and childbearing are too heavy for us to afford. ”

Xiao Song breathed a sigh of relief, and felt faintly lost in her heart, it was greed, no matter how thoroughly she thought about it, she was a little woman after all.

Gu Hengchuan got up and took two glasses of red wine, pushed them to Xiao Song's hand, and motioned for her to clink glasses. The wine glass touches lightly, and there is a soft "ding" sound. The sun is shining warmly, and the sparkling lake is outside the window. Gu Hengchuan said: "I like you like this. Life is short, toast to every day we will come! ”

He still had to go to work in the afternoon, but Xiao Song raised his head and drank the wine in his glass. The cold liquor slid over the tongue and down the esophagus into the stomach. At this moment, she felt that everything in front of her was full of brilliance, she was still young, and she still had a lot of time.

Back at the unit, Xiao Song felt that her face was a little hot, she washed her face and looked at herself in the mirror, her eyes were watery, like two black grapes. Xiao Fang happened to bump into her and quietly asked her if she had been drinking at noon. Xiao Song raised his index finger to cover his lips and smiled and signaled her to keep quiet.

Xiao Fang made an "OK" gesture, feeling a little lonely. She knew that Xiao Song was friends with Gu Hengchuan in the teaching studio, and she went out to eat together at noon, drank some wine, and looked radiant. Why Gu Hengchuan? She wondered. Xiao Liu and Xiao Zheng are all interesting to her, Xiao Fang saw it in her eyes, she thought that Xiao Song had a high vision, but she didn't expect her to favor a contract worker, which surprised her. The idiot rode a horse away, and his wife often slept with her clumsy husband, and when she thought of this, she was calm.

Xiao Song's mood returned to calm. She was looking forward to the early arrival of the weekend, and wanted to be with Gu Hengchuan, grinding her ears and temples, holding hands, laughing and strolling. Unfortunately, after work on Wednesday, I received a notice that the investigators of the Provincial Department of Education led a team to Surabaya City to inspect the operation of the international school, and this Saturday morning was accompanied by Director Du of the Municipal Education Bureau and Director Zhou of the International Exchange Office to inspect the IB program of Surabaya Middle School, visit the Dayouxiang campus, listen to Principal He and Principal Zou make special reports, and discuss with teachers and students.

This is the top priority of the school, and Principal He attaches great importance to it, and personally rushed to Dayou Lane to meet Principal Zou. Principal He put forward three requirements, the campus should be clean and hygienic, the report should be novel and brilliant, and the discussion should be rehearsed.

After sending Principal He to the car and leaving, Principal Zou called Xiao Song to translate and exchange views with Academic Principal Roy. He was originally worried that Roy would not understand, and even opposed "cheating", but to his surprise, this time Roy was very talkative, cheerfully cooperative, and did not bother to speak.

After talking about work, Principal Zou got up to send Roy out of the office, and by the way, he stopped Xiao Song and asked her how she communicated with Roy. Xiao Song said: "Roy recently learned two sentences, one is 'follow the customs of the country', and the other is 'sing what song to what mountain', to welcome the provincial department to see the guide, it is our 'custom' here, it is our mountain's 'song', he understands it very well." ”

Principal Zou laughed unconsciously, "You taught him these two sentences?" ”

Xiao Song hesitated for a moment, unwilling to take credit, and said, "It was Gu Hengchuan who said it, I just translated it on the side." ”

Principal Zou asked for details, and Xiao Song said a few words about the cause and effect, and he was a little worried in his heart, not knowing if he would cause trouble for Gu Hengchuan. Principal Zou was noncommittal when he heard this, but just said, "It is also Xiao Gu's ability to convince Roy." ”
