Chapter 6: A High School Classmate I Didn't See in Ten Years
On the way back, Ms. Sang was still talking about reuniting with her old neighbor.
"I met you Aunt Zhu just now, I almost didn't recognize it, obediently, I'm really getting younger and younger."
Jiang Jianyue chuckled: "You are not old either. β
She and Xie Xingqian are classmates, Sang Ping and Zhu Lihua are naturally of the same age, but after so many years of goodbye, Zhu Lihua does look better maintained.
Sang Ping sighed: "She remarried that husband to do business, it seems to be quite rich." and Xie Xingqi, who is also very prosperous now, as old as you, and has bought a house in the city center. β
Sang Ping used to work in No. 1 Middle School, although she had not taught Xie Xingqi, but she also knew that there was such a genius boy in the school who skipped a grade.
The students of the first middle school were compared with Xie Xingqian by their parents, and many children were envious, jealous and hated for this genius.
Jiang Jianyue was helpless: "You want to use other people's children to spur me again." β
People like Xie Xingqian are the template for the ideal children in the minds of parents. She probably knows the words of the parents.
Sang Ping glanced at her daughter, but did not continue to talk about Xie Xingqi's excellence as she imagined, but said slowly: "I'm not spurring you, I'm just emotional." And although you are not as good as others in terms of economic strength, there is one thing that you are better than him. β
Jiang Jianyue thought it was interesting, she didn't even buy a car now, and she was actually better than Xie Xingqi.
I heard my old mother carrying an environmental bag and saying, "He doesn't have a girlfriend." β
Jiang Jianyue's hand shook and almost knocked over the box.
Sang Ping turned her head to look at her.
Jiang Jianyue pursed her lips, not knowing what expression to make.
"Can't take it? Let's swap it. Ms. Sang said.
Jiang Jianyue shook her head and quickened her pace: "It's not heavy, I'll open the door first." β
It's hard for her to put it into words.
In fact, she is not much better than Xie Xingqi, although she is single, she is likely to be green.
Thinking about it this way, it seems that she is even more miserable.
β¦β¦
At five o'clock, Jiang Weidou came back after being busy.
He moved two boxes of peaches and carefully placed them on the ground when he opened them.
Sang Ping took a plastic bag out of the kitchen, directly tore open the cardboard box and picked up eight peaches from it, and said to Jiang Weidou: "Who do you guess I met just now?" Zhu Lihua, who used to open a happy pastry shop! She's moved back now, and the neighbors in the street, bring her a few peaches. β
Jiang Weidou changed his slippers and was a little surprised: "Zhu Lihua? Yo, I haven't seen you in ten years, so don't pack it, send this box over. β
Jiang Jianyue liked to eat cakes back then, Zhu Lihua also invited her several times, and the friendship was all from the place, and Sang Ping liked this old neighbor quite a lot.
"Yueyue, don't lie there and play with your phone, go, take a run, and send it to Aunt Zhu." Sang Ping still has to cook, so this task is naturally handed over to her idle daughter.
Jiang Jianyue glanced at the circle of friends who had not moved again, turned off her mobile phone, and got up to change her shoes.
After walking for only two minutes, I came to a small courtyard full of begonias.
A paramela was parked on the side of the road with a few leaves falling on it.
Jiang Jianyue only glanced at it, walked into the small courtyard and knocked on the door.
"The moon is coming." Zhu Lihua opened the door to see that it was her, and after being surprised, she welcomed her into the house very happily.
Jiang Jianyue put the peach on the floor of the entrance to explain the intention.
Zhu Lihua is knowledgeable, and when she glanced at the words on the box, she said angrily: "You will come, what else do you bring, Yangshan peaches are not cheap." β
Jiang Jianyue smiled and said, "You used to invite me to eat cakes, and you didn't ask me for money." β
Zhu Lihua was stunned, a little embarrassed and a little relieved: "Good boy, do you remember?" β
"Come on, come in, I just have a cake baked in the oven, you sit for a while, take two back." Without waiting for Jiang Jianyue to refuse, Zhu Lihua put the slippers on the ground.
β¦β¦
Study room on the second floor.
Xie Xingqian was sitting in front of the computer, talking to someone on the phone.
Next to the computer, there is an upside-down copy of "Physical Evidence", and he taps his fingers on the cover, listening nonchalantly to the voice on the other end of the phone.
The air conditioner was silently spitting cold air, but the crack in the open door drifted in to talk downstairs.
The light and gentle girl's voice quietly blew down her heart like a summer breeze.
In a trance, it was as if I was back in high school.
"Old Xie, old Xie! Did you hear me say? On the other end of the phone, the voice of Qin Zhao, a senior at the university, came.
Xie Xingqian suddenly came back to his senses and responded nonchalantly: "I heard it, I will be there on time on Monday." β
There were many complicated procedures and procedures during the transfer from Beijing to Jiangcheng. After the work handover in Beijing is completed, there are still many follow-up matters to be dealt with in Jiangcheng.
Fortunately, senior Qin Zhao has helped a lot, and he has to thank him.
"I'll treat you to dinner on the weekend." The soft female voice downstairs floated like nothing, tugging at Xie Xingqi's heartstrings, and he rarely showed a trace of impatience, "I still have something to do, hang up first." β
"Hey-" Qin Zhao's voice rang hastily on the phone, and he was ruthlessly hung up.
Qin Zhao over there was holding his mobile phone, speechless in his heart.
He hasn't finished his words yet, new colleagues have joined the company, and everyone still wants to take the opportunity to get together......
Downstairs, Jiang Jianyue was invited into the living room by the enthusiastic Zhu Lihua.
The two of them were chatting on the sofa, she looked quiet, and she was very patient with her elders, and Zhu Lihua kept asking her questions.
"I heard your mom say you work in the South End? I forgot to ask, what do you do now? Zhu Lihua pulled her and asked.
Jiang Jianyue just said succinctly: "I am engaged in criminal investigation work in the city bureau. β
"Ah, the Municipal Public Security Bureau? It's such a coincidence, my Xie Xingqiβ"
Before Zhu Lihua finished speaking, Xie Xingqian walked down from the second floor.
Standing at the top of the stairs, Jiang Jianyue subconsciously looked at it, and his eyes met in midair.
Jiang Jianyue explained the purpose of her coming: "I'll bring a box of peaches to my aunt." β
Xie Xingqian bowed his head lightly and asked lightly, "Do you want to drink water?" β
Jiang Jianyue smiled politely: "No, I'll just sit down and leave." β
"Yo, then you wait a while, I'll go see if the cake is baked." Zhu Lihua got up and went to the kitchen.
As soon as she left, Xie Xingqian also went to the kitchen, and came back with two bottles of soda in her hand after a while.
A bottle of soda with a cool feeling was placed in front of Jiang Jianyue by him, Xie Xingqian unscrewed the other bottle, raised his head and drank most of it, and then sat down on the sofa next to him.
Jiang Jianyue turned her head slightly to look.
Xie Xingqian lowered his head and was replying to WeChat, when the prompt sound of the voice bar kept popping up, he didn't listen, but converted it all into text.
He seems to be busy.
Jiang Jianyue retracted his gaze.
High school classmates who haven't seen each other for ten years are alone in a room, and they don't have any friendships, and they can't seem to find a suitable topic for a while.
Zhu Lihua is still busy in the kitchen.
In silence, Jiang Jianyue took out her mobile phone and looked at the time, and then clicked on the circle of friends.
Dou Ke's circle of friends has been updated-
[Come with him to eat his favorite moonlight restaurant, which is worthy of being an Internet celebrity shop, there are a lot of people, but fortunately he booked a table in advance. γ
Updated 10 minutes ago, with a delicately arranged desktop photo.
In the upper right corner of the photo, there is a pair of hands holding wine glasses, and a mole on the arm is clearly visible, which is a familiar sign on someone's body.
