Chapter 138: Sunny to Cloudy
As the sun sets, the sunset sets off the summer mountain village with red and beautiful brilliance.
On Tunxi Avenue, the yak rode a bicycle carrying Xiaomei, and Gao Laosan carried Zou Jie, these people who are intertwined with love and hate, love and hatred, and now under the mediation of Zou Jie, they have embarked on a delicate journey.
When I arrived at the commune guest house, the canteen was well prepared, and a table of wine and food was very rich, including braised crucian carp, shredded sweet potato, soft tofu, cold celery and peanuts, pot-wrapped meat, egg custard, wine is two pots, and soda drinks.
The four of them sat down, and the banquet drama directed by Zou Jie began, Gao Laosan raised his glass and stood up, and first admitted his mistake to Xiaomei and Yazi: "Don't say anything, I'll punish myself with a glass of wine first." ”
Gao Laosan said, drank a glass of liquor, and then said: "I, Gao Laosan, am not a person, I offended Teacher Xiaomei and Brother Yanzi, and added a lot of blockages to you, especially hurt Teacher Xiaomei and Dahan, and a few innocent people, I shouldn't have it, thank you two for giving me this opportunity today, I admit my mistakes to you both, I don't ask for forgiveness, I just want to give Gao Laosan a step to make up for my mistakes." ”
"I didn't expect that my Lang Jun has literary talents, let you say this, I listen to it very pleasantly, sincere enough, the Buddha said, the sea of bitterness is boundless, turn back is the shore, and there is a saying, the prodigal son does not change the money, what is said is you, Xiaomei, Yakzi, believe in your sister's vision, come, give your sister and your future brother-in-law a little face, let's have a toast together."
Zou Jie intended to break the embarrassing atmosphere at the wine table and sang a harmony with Gao Laosanyi.
Yakzi and Xiaomei were speechless, and obediently drank a glass of wine with Zou Jie.
"Teacher Xiaomei, Brother Yakzi, come and come, eat vegetables, eat vegetables." For the sake of Zou Jie, Gao Laosan is willing to be lower than three and four.
Zou Jie decided to marry Gao Laosan, Xiaomei and Yakzi both have a sense of relief, although they are not worth it for Zou Jie in their hearts, but they can do anything about it.
On an occasion like today, Xiaomei and Yazi understand Zou Jie's good intentions, even if they feel awkward, they can't help but give Zou Jie face.
Zou Jie kept picking vegetables for Xiaomei and Yakzi, Xiaomei saw the opportunity, raised her glass and stood up: "Sister Zou, Director Gao, Brother Yakzi and I thank you for your hospitality, don't mention the past, today I will call Director Gao in front of the two of you brother-in-law in advance, and wish you two to love each other and tie the knot early." ”
Yakzi also raised his glass and stood up: "I didn't think about what to say, and I won't say it, I also called Director Gao in advance to call my brother-in-law, we don't know each other, what's wrong with me, I hope you take care of it, come, drink." ”
The four of them toasted together, which was regarded as a glass of wine to relieve their suspicions, and they smiled at their enmity.
There was Zou Jie on the wine table, and the atmosphere was much more harmonious.
Xiaomei and Yazi take into account the relationship between Zou Jie and Gao Laosan, and they always have to get by on the occasion.
Gao Laosan saw that Xiaomei and Yakzi didn't seem to have any hostility, and said with a truth: "Teacher Xiaomei, in the past, the third brother was sincere to you, Brother Yakzi, Xiaojie, don't eat my jealousy, I tell you the truth, I really like Xiaomei, but I and Xiaomei are really inseparable, and I envy Brother Yakzi."
Gao Laosan said to the yakzi, "In the past, I had prejudices against you, I looked down on you, and I looked down on you, through a few things, you let me understand, I Gao Laosan was convinced, convinced, come, let's drink this glass of wine, there will be a place for the third child in the future, the third is duty-bound, although I am reluctant, now I have Xiaojie, I hope you and Xiaomei can go further, bless you both." ”
"Come, Xiaomei, let's also toast and accept the blessing of your future brother-in-law, please continue to bless." Zou Jie and Xiaomei clinked glasses and took a sip with expressions.
Gao Laosan and Yakzi had unconsciously drunk a lot of wine, full of wine and food, Zou Jie left Xiaomei to live with her, and Gao Laosan arranged another place for Yakzi.
At night, the two sisters, Zou Jie and Xiaomei, talked about everything, and barely closed their eyes.
Zou Jie said that she and Gao Laosan take what they need, and after they get married, they can live a good life together, and if they can't get by, they can get together and disperse, and they don't owe each other.
Xiaomei has no illusions about people like Gao Laosan, reminds Zou Jie, and lets Zou Jie do it himself.
Zou Jie knows very well in her heart that it is more important than living with Gao Laosan, she wants to get married and give birth to a child.
There is no real love between Zou Jie and Gao Laosan, and many marriages in the world are nothing more than that.
Zou Jie only hopes that Xiaomei and Yazi can truly love each other forever and fulfill her youthful dream of becoming a lover and eventually becoming a family.
Xiaomei also has hidden worries, everything is good, but it is difficult to change reality, love is not everything, life is long. Besides, the four girls are determined to marry Yakzi, they are all sisters, and Xiaomei doesn't know how to deal with this matter yet.
This small room is a place where two people fall in love, Zou Jie asked Xiaomei to stay with her for a few days, and Xiaomei also had this intention.
Listening to Xiaomei, Yakzi's sister Baiqiu and Er Laizi are also getting married, Zou Jie decided to give her current bedding and all the daily necessities in the room to Baiqiu, and let Yakzi arrange a carriage on the wedding day, and after picking up the kiss, all of them were loaded and pulled back to Xingfutun.
In the room, for Zou Jie, the most precious thing is the calligraphy and painting on the wall that she completed in cooperation with He Wenduo, Zou Jie entrusted Xiaomei to treasure it for her, and Xiaomei agreed.
Early in the morning of the second day, Zou Jie forced Gao Laosan to repeat the preface and take out 100 yuan as compensation for Dahan's injury, work, and killing the big yellow dog.
He was not very polite and accepted the money.
Zou Jie confessed that he asked him to make a new set of clothes and wear them decently when he was the best man, so as not to be shabby.
Yakzi didn't have the habit of wearing new clothes, so he promised on his lips, but he didn't care in his heart, but Xiaomei immediately asked for twenty yuan, ready to buy fabrics for Yakzi to make clothes.
Zou Jie stayed at the house for breakfast, and the son rode Xiaomei's bicycle back to Xingfutun.
Yakzi returned to Xingfu Tun, and the people in Tunli heard that Yakzi and Xiaomei went to the banquet, and they all felt incredible, what happened before and after was not long, but it was so dramatic, thinking that life is impermanent, and it is also the norm of life.
He gave the remaining eighty yuan to his mother, which was a lot of money for the family, and could buy some dowry for Baiqiu.
The big stubborn man didn't think so, he just wanted to use the money to build a house with the water spilled by the girl who got married.
The old couple had a verbal fight over this, and the man had nothing to say, no matter how he spent the money, he didn't feel good in his heart.
Let's say that Xiaomei has not been quiet in the past few days when she accompanied Zou Jie to live in the guest house.
Zou Jie and Gao Laosan are going to get married, and there are many discussions behind the scenes of familiar people, some say that they are right, some feel inexplicable, and the biggest reaction is Wang Xiujuan, the waitress in the canteen of the original guest house.
Wang Xiujuan Since Gao Laosan beat her last time, Gao Laosan's mother gave her a lot of benefits in order to calm things down, and transferred her out of the guest house and let her become a custodian in the supply and marketing cooperative.
However, Wang Xiujuan and Gao Laosan have not broken off their relationship secretly, and the two are often together from time to time.
Especially after the explosion of the cupola furnace of the commune's steelmaking, Wang Xiujuan's husband was killed, Wang Xiujuan handed over the child to her deceased husband's parents to raise, and she wanted to climb the high branch of Gao Laosan and dig out her heart to marry him.
For this reason, Wang Xiujuan showed her ability as a woman in front of Gao Laosan, but Gao Laosan had sweet words on her lips, but she was actually just playing with her.
Wang Xiujuan has always had illusions about Gao Laosan, who knew that now Gao Laosan was going to marry the women's director of the commune, and her hard work was about to come to naught, and she couldn't control herself.
On the evening of the second day when Xiaomei accompanied Zou Jie, Gao Laosan was in Zou Jie's room to be courteous, and Wang Xiujuan suddenly broke into the door and broke into the house.
"Gao Laosan, what do you mean? You want to marry her, what am I? As soon as Wang Xiujuan met, she didn't give up and made a lot of noise.
"Get out of here, this isn't where you're supposed to be." Gao Laosan said, stood up, and pointed at Wang Xiujuan angrily.
Zou Jie and Xiaomei were both in the room, and when they saw this meeting, they knew that the person who came was not good.
Zou Jie said patiently: "Who let you in?" This is my room, please go out and talk about the two of you. ”
"Why are you robbing a man with me? What's wrong with the women's director of the commune, bullying me has no power or power? ”
Before Wang Xiujuan finished speaking, Gao Laosan rushed forward, slapped her in the face, and forcibly pushed her out of the door.
"Fuck your mother, Gao Laosan, it was your father who beat me to death." Wang Xiujuan broke free and shouted.
"Get out of here!"
Gao Laosan couldn't tolerate it, and in the corridor, he punched and kicked Wang Xiujuan. Wang Xiujuan did not show weakness, crying and scratching at Gao Laosan.
Encountering this scene, Xiaomei ran out of ideas, and looked at Zou Jie, who was sitting on a stool, expressionless and calm.
"Xiaomei, you are in the house, don't go out no matter what happens." Zou Jie said, "I'll go out." ”
"Hmm." Xiaomei agreed, a little worried about Zou Jie.
A few people came in the corridor and pulled Gao Laosan and Wang Xiujuan apart, Wang Xiujuan sat on the ground and cried, and Gao Laosan's face was scratched by Wang Xiujuan with a few blood marks.
At this time, Gao Laosan had the intention of killing Wang Xiujuan, but he was stopped by the people in the guest house and pushed back to the office.
"Xiao Wang, you go quickly, don't mess with our director, it's too late for you to regret it." Someone persuaded Wang Xiujuan.
Wang Xiujuan played the shrew and shouted, "Gao Laosan, you listen to me, if you don't marry me, I will sue you, sue you for raping a people's girl, I will let you squat in prison, and you will not be able to turn over in this life!" ”
Zou Jie walked out of the room, Wang Xiujuan saw Zou Jie and pointed the finger at her again.
"Let me tell you, Zou Jie, as long as I still have a breath, don't think about it, I have been with Gao Laosan for a few years, he personally promised to marry me, it was you who seduced him, he changed his mind, don't think you are a good person, vixen!"
Zou Jie ignored it, didn't even look at Wang Xiujuan, and walked out of the guest house directly.
