Chapter 137: Who Is That "Swan"
Looking at the bustling scene of people coming and going on the street, Yan Jiayuan couldn't experience that kind of excitement. On the contrary, I feel that this kind of excitement has nothing to do with me, and my current state of mind is like being alone in an ancient castle.
She picked up her mobile phone and dialed Ah Fang's number: "Ah Fang, long time no see, long time no see, right?" Miss you. Where are you? Are you free tonight? There's nothing to do, I just want to meet you and have a chat. I just want to talk, just talk about it. As long as you're free, you can talk about anything. I don't know why, but now I feel empty. ”
Ah Fang heard the helplessness and helplessness in her voice: "We haven't seen each other for half a month, and it's been a long time." It wasn't like this before, it's never been this long, what's going on? Is the child sick again? Or is your titular man back? ”
"It's nothing, the child went to his grandparents' house, that person has completely disappeared in my eyes, and I have long thought he didn't exist. Recently, I have been very depressed, not only feeling a little empty, but also a little panicked. I especially want to talk to someone and want to spit it out. Some things are stuffy in my heart, except that I want to talk to you, I don't know who to talk to? It's almost out of breath. Yan Jiayuan said with a tired expression.
Ah Fang and Yan Jiayuan are both teachers, but they don't teach in the same school, and both of them have been very busy lately and haven't been in touch for a few weeks.
She thought for a moment and said, "Well, I happen to be free tonight, I'll ask a few friends to get together with you, and have a grievance meeting for you, don't hold your own thoughts in your stomach." If there is bitter water, pour it out, and pour it out, otherwise, this bitter water will accumulate more and more, and it will form a dammed lake in your heart, and sooner or later it will make you collapse. What do you think? If you don't have a problem, I'll call them one by one right now. ”
Yan Jiayuan's heart warmed, and she said gratefully: "It's still Ah Fang who thinks about me and understands me the most." It's not that I don't want to say it, but I think these things are too embarrassing, or it can be said that it is miserable, and maybe, no one will believe it if I say it. "Ah Fang knows that Yan Jiayuan is a very patient person, no matter when, he would rather wronged himself than trouble others.
Ah Fang is two years younger than Yan Jiayuan, but she is more assertive than Yan Jiayuan, and she rarely hesitates when she encounters problems, but not long ago, she mistakenly believed in other people's so-called technical analysis, and mistakenly bought the "bull stock" that was abandoned by the institution.
"I'll call you when I've found a place." Ah Fang hung up the phone, they are good girlfriends from elementary school to college, the two families originally lived in the same building, and then the old building was demolished, the two moved to different communities, and then they also got married, and they became families, so there was less contact. But as long as there is something to do with each other, the first thing that comes to mind is the other person.
Ah Fang originally wanted to take time to visit the mall and buy a few seasonal clothes. When Yan Jiayuan called just now, she was already on the road. After thinking about it, I decided to go to the pedestrian street and book a private room at the restaurant I frequented.
Yan Jiayuan waited for a while under the stop sign on the side of the road, and the past few buses were too crowded because of people, she thought that there was nothing too urgent anyway, so it was better to wait for the next one. Another bus came, and she got on it.
There were obviously fewer people on this bus, and as soon as Yan Jiayuan sat down, someone gently patted the seat behind her from behind. She looked back and froze: "Wang Gang, when did you come back?" Aren't you working as a lawyer in a foreign country? Did you change careers, or did you pass through on a business trip? ”
Wang Gang's face was full of unexpected surprise: "It's been more than half a year since I came back, my parents are old, and their health is not very good, no one can take care of them, and I won't feel at ease outside, so I'll come back after thinking about it." Lawyer is a freelance profession, and you can still do it when you come back, but if you have fewer contacts for the time being, it won't have much impact. After all, things are man-made, and any problem will be solved if you work hard. ”
Looking at Yan Jiayuan's somewhat puzzled expression, he explained: "I went out to investigate and collect evidence for a case I just took over in the morning, but I didn't expect to meet you in the car, what a coincidence." I got off the station in front of me and made an appointment with several parties in the afternoon to discuss the matters of litigation mediation, and I couldn't miss the appointment. We'll talk about it next time, and you can contact me if you have anything, this is my contact information. Wang Gang handed Yan Jiayuan a business card.
Wang Gang's unexpected appearance was like an unexpected warm wind, instantly blowing away the haze that shrouded Yan Jiayuan. The depression in Yan Jiayuan's heart seemed to subside unconsciously, she looked at Wang Gang and said, "I really have something to look for you." ”
Wang Gang got up and prepared to get off the bus, and said with a smile: "I'm getting off the bus, this station is not far from our law firm, after getting off the bus, turn on your right hand and walk more than 50 meters, you can call me if you have anything, or you can come here directly to find me." Remember, be sure to come to me, I'm waiting for you. ”
After Wang Gang got out of the car, Yan Jiayuan looked at the back of this young man who had left a lot of memories in her heart, and felt that it was really a coincidence, and this thing was really too coincidental, so coincidental that it made her feel a little unreal. She never expected to meet Wang Gang again at this time, it seems that there is always an invisible hand controlling her fate in the dark.
After graduating from high school, she and Ah Fang were admitted to the provincial teachers' college, while Wang Gang went to a remote city in the west to study his favorite political science and law major.
Once, when Yan Jiayuan and Ah Fang were reminiscing about their high school study life in the dormitory, Ah Fang suddenly asked her: "Do you still remember Wang Gang?" That tall, big, kind of goofy big boy. ”
Of course, Yan Jiayuan remembered the boy: "Wang Gang? Remember, a very handsome boy, I don't see where he's stupid. ”
Ah Fang smiled and said, "Do you know that Wang Gang meant that to you?" ”
She looked at Ah Fang puzzled: "What do you mean?" There's nothing between me and him. He never made any explicit or implicit statement, what was interesting or uninteresting? I don't feel the slightest feeling, where did you start? ”
Ah Fang laughed "haha" and rolled on the bed with laughter: "Do you remember, a month before the college entrance examination, the head teacher Teacher Cai criticized a boy by name?" ”
Yan Jiayuan nodded and said: "It seems that there is such a thing, Mr. Cai was a little vocal that day, which made people feel very terrifying, and it seemed that he had changed from a loving father to a terrible tyrant in an instant, so there was still some impression of this matter." ”
"You said you still have an impression, so tell me what Mr. Cai said at that time? Do you remember that? Ah Fang asked meaningfully.
Yan Jiayuan thought for a while and said, "I don't have much of an impression, but there are some words that are still fresh in my memory." Teacher Cai said at the time, when is it? It is the darkness before dawn, the eve of the People's Liberation Army's crossing of the river, the time when the soldiers take up arms and prepare to charge, and the time when they bravely go forward to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions to strive for the final victory. You said yes, everyone was encouraged to answer 'yes' loudly, and Mr. Cai asked again, what should be done at this time? Everyone shouted again, 'Gather courage and defeat your opponent!' Because this is a sentence that Mr. Cai usually says, I returned it to Mr. Cai together. ”
Ah Fang laughed and asked, "I'm talking about what happened next, don't you remember?" ”
Yan Jiayuan recalled: "I remember. At this time, Mr. Cai coldly held up a letter, raised it in his hand, and said mockingly: At this time, there is a warrior who has other ideas, he is not thinking about charging into battle, but like a toad, he is bent on eating swan meat, and everyone laughs. Teacher Cai also warned that I would like to advise this toad, as well as other toads who may have the same idea in their hearts, to throw away your illusions for the time being, to hone yourself first, and to transform yourself into a high-flying eagle, and then to do your dreams. At the end, Mr. Cai raised his voice and said: At that time, I will wish you all your dreams come true. ”
Ah Fang smiled again: "You remember it very clearly, I thought that only toads would remember those words that are both inspirational and inspiring, and can also be said to have a little insulting taste." I didn't expect your swan to remember it so clearly. Do you know who the toad Mr. Cai was referring to at that time? And who is the swan? ”
Yan Jiayuan shook her head and said, "I paid attention at the time, and all the boys did not react abnormally. For example, if anyone lowers their heads, or blushes blushing, as the saying goes, being a thief has a weak heart, haha, but they don't find any clues, they seem to be quite cunning, laughing together when they laugh, shouting together, pretending not to have any flaws. ”
Ah Fang smiled again and rolled back and forth on the bed a few times: "It seems that you really don't know?" The toad who wrote love letters is Wang Gang, and the swan that this toad dreams of eating is far away in the sky and close in front of him, and the swan's name is Yan Jiayuan. ”
Yan Jiayuan asked in surprise: "Everyone thought that Mr. Cai just held up an empty envelope and made up a story at random to warn everyone, how can there be such a thing, you must be making up stories to coax me again." ”
Ah Fang got up and sat upright, looked at Yan Jiayuan on the opposite side and said, "You really didn't listen to anything outside the window at that time, and you only read sage books. I'll uncover this mystery for you now, the love letter was indeed written by Wang Gang to you, Wang Gang probably thought about you a little dizzy in the past few days, and he carelessly sandwiched the love letter in the homework book and sent it to the head teacher. Isn't this a self-defeating trap, you say? Haha, fortunately, Mr. Cai just reminded everyone to concentrate, and they still had to sharpen their guns again when they were in battle, and they didn't delve into this matter, but just found an excuse to call Wang Gang and scolded him. When Wang Gang was being trained with his head down, I happened to go to Mr. Cai's office to deliver the last Chinese mock test paper. It was completely unintentional to break through this little-known incident, as for why everyone thought that Mr. Cai was holding an empty envelope later, I think about it now, it may be a smokescreen that Wang Gang deliberately put for himself. ”
