Chapter 53: An awkward father-son relationship
When I went downstairs, I saw a Shanghai car parked not far in front of the dormitory, which was polished and shiny, and it looked very stylish. A young man who looked like a government worker who was waiting next to him saw He Yi'an come out and hurriedly greeted him, his white face was a little anxious.
"It's He Yi'an, right?"
"Well, you're?"
"Oh, I'm Deputy Director He's driver, my surname is Zhang, and the leader asked me to pick you up and take you to my home."
He Yi'an nodded, looked around weakly, and didn't see He Weiguo's figure, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Uh, didn't he come?"
The driver, Xiao Zhang, explained: "The leader is very busy, and it is not convenient for him to come here, well, if there is nothing to do, let's leave now." ”
"Well, well!"
He Yi'an's face was a little pale, and his steps hesitated.
He did not choose He Weiguo's preset life route, neither was admitted to a coastal university, nor did he choose the major with the most development potential in his mind, but insisted on walking according to his original intention, which may have been classified as "disobedience" or "betrayal" in He Weiguo's heart.
You can't hide, not to mention that He Weiguo works in Lanzhou, which is close at hand, no matter how you will face his thunderous anger, it is definitely not a good way to escape.
He Yi'an followed the car nervously, but he didn't notice that Zhang Lei and Li Chunguo, two new roommates, were lying on the window, looking through the big pants in front of the windowsill with interest.
Especially Zhang Lei stared at the luxurious car, envious, and pouted: "See!" What kind of car is that? Shanghai brand cars, there are thousands of cars in the country. I said he was a man with a way, but you still don't believe it? How many can drive such a good car with this treatment? ”
Li Chunguo helped his glasses, and was also a little surprised: "Yes, I really didn't see it, this He Yi'an is still a character with a background." ”
Zhang Lei patted Li Chunguo on the shoulder, looking like a senior who has been in the rivers and lakes for many years and eats more salt than ordinary people, and admonished earnestly: "So this person can't be good-looking, maybe this He Yi'an is a very scheming person, don't be blinded by the superficial image." Go back, ask me for advice, my brother is an understanding person. ”
"Pull it down, I still need to ask you for advice?"
Through the spectacle lenses, which were three inches thicker than the book, Li Chunguo rolled his eyes. He will not superficially judge people by their appearance, and the feeling He Yi'an gives him is definitely not the kind of person who pretends to be a pig and eats a tiger, and is hypocritical and hides his edge.
"I don't think so, He Yi'an is very good, worthy of intersection. The appearance and image can be disguised, but the temperament of conversation cannot be faked. If you don't believe me, we can bet! ”
Zhang Lei pursed his lips disdainfully, and said confidently: "Bet on it, bet on it, the old rule, wash your socks if you lose, a week!" ”
Li Chunguo blinked his eyes and said very indifferently: "It's boring for more than a week, if you want to fix it, let's start in half a year." ”
"Damn, you're so sure?"
Zhang Lei's eyes widened suddenly, gambling is not anyone's chance of winning, this thing sometimes has to rely on momentum to see who scares who first.
"Of course, bet or not?"
Zhang Lei opened his eyes widely, circled around Li Chunguo for half a circle, looked at the other party's calm and calm expression, and immediately became uncertain. Just kidding, if you lose, you have to hold the stinky socks for half a year, and the stakes are too big, and the hero must not suffer a loss in front of him!
"Hmm...... Forget it, seeing that you are so determined, you must want to dig a hole for me and fool the silly boy, I don't want to become your sock washing slave! ”
Li Chunguo threw a roll of his eyes with disdain: "Cut, just say it if you coax it!" ”
On the other side, He Yi'an sat in the back of the car in a panic, the car was good and comfortable, but he didn't have the heart to browse the bustling street scene outside the window. At this moment, his mind was full of speculation about He Weiguo's purpose for taking him back at this time, and after a long time, he raised his head and asked.
"Master Zhang, my dad has a house in Lanzhou?"
Xiao Zhang put the steering wheel, looked back slightly, and said: "Oh, our health department has its own apartment, but it is old, and the leading cadres live there temporarily." The new house hasn't been built yet, but you won't have to wait long before you can move into your new home. ”
He Yi'an lowered his eyebrows and pondered: "Oh, then my dad didn't say anything, right?" ”
Xiao Zhang shook his head slightly and smiled bitterly: "Besides, Deputy Director He has been angry with me a lot, and he is not in a good mood." ”
"Ahh
He Yi'an suddenly became nervous, and leaned forward: "What's wrong with him?" ”
"Tell me more! He arranged for me to pick you up at the station early in the morning, but I waited for everyone to be astigmatized while holding a sign at the door, and I didn't see you. Xiao Zhang's tone also revealed a trace of resentment.
He Yi'an retracted his body apologetically, his face a little embarrassed: "Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't pay attention to the sign, I went to school directly from the station." ”
"Fortunately, I kept an eye on it and went to the school registration office to find your name, otherwise I wouldn't know how to explain it to the leader when I went back!"
"I'm sorry for the trouble!"
Xiao Zhang smiled and said calmly: "It's okay, it's okay, it's okay if Deputy Director He doesn't criticize me for not doing my job properly." Oh, it's here! This is where Deputy Director He lives. 2nd floor 202, I'll take you up. ”
"Oh, thank you."
After getting out of the car, He Yi'an raised his eyes and saw that this was a two-story building, which still had some architectural styles from the Republic of China period, and looked a little quaint under the shade of a row of cherry trees.
But the surrounding environment is very ordinary, and there are broken bricks and tiles piled up in many places, which seems to be really a place to live temporarily. It was winter, the trees were bare and the grass around them was yellow, and the buildings with a bit of antique color became more and more bleak.
was about to approach the door, He Yi'an suddenly felt a little weak in his legs, and a not very good premonition came to his heart.
What's going on? Why don't you just go home? Why don't you feel more nervous than meeting your own father than meeting the leaders of a country? He looked up at the building in front of him apprehensively, and he had no passion for going home.
Xiao Zhang didn't notice that He Yi'an's expression was wrong at this moment, Shi Shiran led him up to the second floor and knocked on the door gently. After a while, He Weiguo opened the door in a wide and heavy one-piece pajamas, and his face was three points colder than the cold wind outside.
"Coming?" He Weiguo glared at the figure that was huddled behind Xiao Zhang.
He Yi'an nodded slightly with a bitter face, and Xiao Zhang hurriedly stepped forward to explain: "Deputy Director He, Yi'an was picked up by me from the university dormitory, and fortunately I found it." Deputy Director He, do you have anything else to explain? ”
He Weiguo nodded coldly: "Okay, you go back first." Yi'an, come in! ”
He Yi'an hurriedly nodded in agreement, and waited for Xiao Zhang to go downstairs, then glanced at He Weiguo crampedly, and stepped into the house in a restrained manner. He Weiguo, who was moving forward, ignored He Yi'an at all, and sat on the sofa alone with a gagged ass, and then kept silent.
The heating was burning in the house, and it was warm, and it was a little breathless.
He Weiguo had been holding his breath for a long time, and he wanted to see his son's face, so he pointed to his nose and scolded. But seeing He Yi'an standing pitifully in front of him now, looking like he was restrained, he could only suppress his anger a little.
"Sit down, this will also be your home in the future, but it is also temporary, and you still have to move when you go back to the new house."
He Yi'an pursed his lips, sat down next to He Weiguo, and said lightly: "I know, Master Zhang said something just now." ”
He Weiguo frowned, stared at He Yi'an, and said in a calm tone as much as possible: "Don't blame your father for being unhappy, don't you tell your mother well, when you come to Lanzhou, I will send someone to take you home directly, the matter of reporting is not so urgent, I can send you over again." ”
He Yi'an rubbed his fingers and explained modestly: "Oh, I want to report first, and I don't know what the specific requirements of the school are, I plan to contact you after I finish registering." ”
He Weiguo had a cold face: "Fortunately, Xiao Zhang's work is proper, and he went directly to the school." You're not familiar with Lanzhou, so if you get lost or something, doesn't that worry me. ”
"Dad, I can do all of this on my own, don't worry." He Yi'an glanced at He Weiguo in a panic.
Looking at his son's submissive appearance, He Weiguo's heart softened, and he said stupidly: "This old saying is good, and the mother of the child is worried." You've never left the sesame place in the group, and when you go to the big city, you're a newcomer, if something goes wrong, where to find regret medicine. ”
He Yi'an's heart was also warm, and he nodded earnestly: "Oh, I'll be careful." ”
The child's humility and courtesy came into view, and He Weiguo was relieved and a little depressed. Now that the wood has been completed, the rice has been cooked, and although the son has not acted according to his own wishes, it has not reached the point where the mountains and rivers are exhausted and the water is difficult to harvest.
After graduating from college, he can still "set things right" in time and let his footsteps return to what he thinks is on the right path.
At present, the most important thing is to let his son "wake up" and avoid making mistakes again and again.
