Yearning for the cloud in my heart

Lei Chaoqian was a little embarrassed, but it was hard to say anything.

Chen Keyan coughed, and then used her eyes to signal Jiang Ming not to worry.

Jiang Ming got Chen Keyan's hint and drank the wine without saying anything.

The teachers toasted to each other, and the banquet immediately became lively.

After drinking and eating, everyone started talking about playing mahjong.

Lei Chaoqian smiled and said to Jiang Ming:"Jiang Ming, you are playing mahjong with Teacher Yan today."

Jiang Ming quickly waved his hand and said,"I don't know how to play."

Lei Chaoqian said with a smile:"Chen Keyan will teach you. Besides, You have to learn mahjong. I didn't know how to play mahjong at first, but when I arrived at Li Xiaozhi's house, people thought I was a fool."

Jiang Ming looked at Teacher Yan and then at Chen Keyan. I didn’t know what to say, so I just nodded in agreement.

"There is a teacher Yan, a teacher Jiang Ming, a teacher Li Xiaozhi, a teacher Zeng Lanzhi, just a table of mahjong, teacher Chen Weiguo, teacher Lei Shifang, and teacher Wang Jiafeng. The three of you will play in school and have a late night snack."Lei Chaoqian said,"This is the weekend, everyone, relax."

Principal Yan nodded very happily.

Jiang Ming was once again attracted by the life in the school. He thought how great it would be to be a teacher one day.

Principal Yan opened the largest dormitory and everyone left Went in.

This is a dormitory of more than ten square meters, which used to be the meeting room of the village committee. There is an Eight Immortals table and four stools in the middle. There are some cigarette butts on the ground. It is obvious that people often play mahjong here.

Principal Yan handed the key to Lei Chaoqian and said with a smile:"In two days, the school will hire a bricklayer to paint and repair the inside."

Lei Chaoqian nodded gratefully and took the key solemnly.

Teacher Yan sat on the north side of the Eight Immortals table, Li Xiaozhi sat on the west side, Zeng Lanzhi sat on the east side, and Jiang Ming had to sit on the south side.

Chen Keyan stood behind Jiang Ming. Jiang Ming Ming turned to Chen Keyan and said with a smile:"You come and fight. Chen

Keyan smiled and asked,"Do you want to be a fool?" Jiang

Ming understood what Chen Keyan meant, so he had no choice but to sit down and prepare to play mahjong.

Jiang Ming had no interest in playing mahjong. After playing a few games, he said to Chen Keyan:"Keyan, come and play cards.""

Chen Keyan was not polite and immediately sat on the card table. Only then did Jiang Ming think of his bicycle. He was still at the door of the canteen and said to Lei Chaoqian:"My bicycle is at the door of the canteen.

Lei Chaoqian took out the key and said,"Push it to my room.""

So, Jiang Ming took the key and pushed the bicycle. He pushed the bicycle to Lei Chaoqian's dormitory and saw a copybook on the desk. Next to the copybook was the calligraphy practice by Lei Chaoqian.

Jiang Ming looked at it. , feeling that his copybook was not that good. He couldn't help but pick up the pen and find a piece of waste paper to practice on.

Lei Chaoqian didn't see Jiang Ming for a while, so he wanted to look for Jiang Ming. He looked around the school without looking. To Jiang Ming. He thought for a while and walked to the fifth grade classroom. Sure enough, he saw a familiar figure sitting in the fifth grade classroom.

Lei Chaoqian walked in quietly and sat at a desk.

"You are sitting in the wrong seat."Jiang Ming saw Lei Chaoqian sitting down and said

"What are you thinking about?"Lei Chaoqian obviously didn't care about his seat and asked.

"At that time, there were only eleven students in our class."Jiang Ming said, as if he was lost in thought.

Lei Chaoqian smiled and asked:"The place you sit is where you and Chen Keyan sat."

Jiang Ming couldn't help but laugh,"Chen Keyan went to Puji Middle School to study in junior high school, and I went to Qinshi Middle School to study in junior high school."

"You haven't contacted each other for a long time, right?"Lei Chaoqian asked.

"When we met, we were all a bit unfamiliar."Jiang Ming said,"Now, the two of us are slowly getting in touch. Lei

Chaoqian said with a smile:"You have to come to school more often and be more proactive. Like me, I go to see Li Xiaozhi every day after work. Girls just need to spend more time with her and communicate more.""

Jiang Ming smiled. He thought that he was not as good as Lei Chao at this point, but he felt that he should not only consider himself when it comes to marriage, but also consider Chen Keyan more. Chen Keyan's current family is very wealthy, and her family Can you accept yourself? Also, what are Chen Keyan's thoughts? Jiang Ming thought of this and fell into deep thought again.

Lei Chaoqian walked to Jiang Ming's side, sat down, and whispered:"Chen Keyan introduced her boyfriend at home, it seems There must be a few. Think about it, Chen Keyan's father is a contractor, and his family has built a four-story building. Who wouldn’t want to marry such a wealthy daughter?"

Jiang Ming felt nervous after hearing this. This is exactly what he is worried about.

A few years ago, the economic situation of each family was similar. No one felt that he was looking down on anyone, and he had no worries about interacting with others. Nowadays, families The gap between the rich and the poor is gradually widening, and the thinking of each family has also changed.

Especially the families with money look down on the families without money; also, the poor families are also jealous of the rich families.

Jiang Ming remembers going to Chen Keyan's house when he was a child Playing is very casual. But now when I see the tall building of Chen Keyan's house from a distance, I am afraid to get close.

Especially when I see Chen Keyan's parents, elder brother and younger brother, they feel a little unable to hold their heads up.

"What's Chen Keyan's attitude?"Jiang Ming asked in a low voice.

"Chen Keyan, I have been waiting for you. Lei Chaoqian said with a smile,"After all these years, you still don't know?" Now, Chen Keyan has not agreed to be friends with others. Isn’t this waiting for you?"

Lei Chaoqian said this, and Jiang Ming felt a little satisfied and gained some confidence. He quickly stood up and said solemnly:"No matter what, I hope Chen Keyan is happy."

"Only you can give Chen Keyan happiness, do you understand?"Lei Chao slammed the table and shouted.

Jiang Ming smiled with satisfaction and asked in a low voice:"How much gift did Li Xiaozhi ask for?

Lei Chaoqian smiled and said,"I didn't ask for any gift.""

Jiang Ming was taken aback and asked hurriedly:"How could that be?"

Lei Chaoqian then approached Jiang Ming, his mouth was facing Jiang Ming's ear, and he said in a very low voice:"Li Xiaozhi is pregnant now. Is his family worried about me marrying her?"

"you? Why are you like this?"Jiang Ming quickly stood up and shouted

"Accident, purely accidental."Lei Chaoqian shook his head and said

"Why do I feel like you did it on purpose? How many months has it been?"Jiang Ming asked quickly

"It’s been three months."Lei Chaoqian said,"We can't wait any longer."

"You. Jiang Ming sighed and asked,"How much does it cost to get married?""

"Calculating it casually, it's still five thousand."Lei Chaoqian shook his head and said,"I have received one or two thousand in favor, but there are still three or four thousand left."

"I'll lend you five hundred, no, I'll lend you one thousand. Jiang Ming said loudly

"Where do you have the money to lend me? Chen Keyan lent me one thousand, and Teacher Yan also said he would lend me one thousand, which is more or less."Lei Chaoqian calculated,"Let's do it like this, but that's all."

"How much money does your family support you?"Jiang Ming asked.

Lei Chaoqian smiled bitterly and said,"I don't expect that my family will"

"How much is your monthly salary?"Jiang Ming couldn't help but ask.

"One or two hundred a month, maybe. There is no salary for three months during the winter and summer vacations, which is about one to two thousand a year."Lei Chaoqian said a little helplessly,"There is another problem, that is, there are too many favors. One year's salary and favor money are not enough. During the Chinese New Year, I have to ask Teacher Yan to borrow money for the New Year.

Jiang Ming shook his head after hearing this and said,"It's really hard for you.""

"I don’t want to teach. After I get married, I can go to Yangcheng to work. Lei Chaoqian's voice was a little hoarse,"You must not tell Teacher Yan about this." Jiang

Ming heard the news and said with a smile:"When you leave school, I will come to teach in the school.""

"If you come with us to work in Yangcheng, your income will definitely be higher than at home. Lei Chaoqian said without any doubt,"I'm leaving, so don't come into the school again.""

When Jiang Ming heard this, he thought, as a man, the income from teaching in school is too little. Like Chen Keyan, whose family is rich, it is still possible for a girl to teach.

"You must not tell Teacher Yan this. Lei Chaoqian emphasized again,"Actually, I am reluctant to leave the school. How can I pay back the borrowed money if I don't leave?""

Jiang Ming thought about how he would go to school in the future. How would he live with such a low income?

Lei Chaoqian unconsciously looked at his watch. It was a luminous watch. He could see the time clearly in the dark.

"Did you buy a new watch?"Jiang Ming asked

"Li Xiaozhi bought me some watches."Lei Chaoqian said with a smile,"She said that when you are a teacher, you must wear a watch no matter what. Jiang

Ming nodded and asked,"How much did it cost?""

"It's more than two hundred. The original price was three or four hundred. Lei Chaoqian looked at the watch again and said,"We went to the Jingzhou Daliobiao store with Chen Keyan to buy this. Chen Keyan bought two watches at that time.""

When Jiang Ming heard this, he didn't say anything.

"Chen Keyan wore one for himself and bought the other for you," Lei Chaoqian said with a smile,"But I haven't seen you wearing a watch?"

Jiang Ming coughed and covered it up by saying,"Shall we go to your dormitory? Lei

Chaoqian stood up, but had no intention of moving,"Li Xiaozhi's old cousin Zeng Lanzhi is interested in you and has told me several times." I originally didn’t want to tell you this, but Li Xiaozhi always asks me. If Li Xiaozhi asks you, just say that I told you."

Jiang Ming was confused. He didn't care about Zeng Lanzhi at all, but Jing Lei mentioned it ahead of time, and he seemed to have some intention.

"Did you hear that?"Lei Chao pushed Jiang Ming forward and asked.

"I heard that, but I really haven't considered getting married."Jiang Ming said,"The quality of light bulbs in our machine shop has not passed the standard yet. How can I have those thoughts now? Besides, Chen Keyan and I are dating"

"What I mean is that when Li Xiaozhi asks you, you need to know that I told you about Zeng Lanzhi. Lei Chaoqian emphasized,"If Xiaozhi knows that I didn't tell you, she will be angry.""
