You’re My Belated Happiness
Chapter 21:
Ruan Yu accompanied his mother to his hometown in Su City before the trial.
Two days before she was going to travel, she received a call from Liu Mao, saying that he was going to visit a case in Suzhou City these few days and asked if they wanted to travel together.
When Ruan Yu heard it, he knew that it was Father Ruan who was reading the mandarin duck score. He refused but couldn't.
Because Liu Mao said, the reason for inviting her was because the aunt was not in good health and she was tired of using the high-speed train.
She doesn't think about herself, she has to think about her mother.
Early that morning, Liu Mao picked up her and Qu Lan and drove all the way intently. Apart from the initial greeting, he didn't talk to them much.
After getting off the expressway and entering Su City, Ruan Yu sent him the location of his hometown and heard him say: "Your place is very close to Grandma Huai Song's house."
She didn't expect Liu Mao to even know the address of Xu Huaisong's grandmother's home. After a moment of choke, she subconsciously glanced at Mother Ruan next to her.
Qu Lan was also a teacher at the No. 1 Middle School of Suzhou City. Before the division of arts and sciences, he taught Xu Huaisong a semester of Chinese.
Fortunately, she didn't have any special reaction, and she probably didn't remember this student anymore. Without seeing the Chuangang, Ruan Yu quickly followed Liu Mao's words: "Really? Such a coincidence." After saying that, he smiled.
This episode was quickly forgotten by Ruan Yu. When she arrived near her hometown, she walked around with her mother and took a few photos. At noon, she asked her where she would like to go for dinner.
Qu Lan said that since he is here, it's better to take a look at the middle school and eat in the school cafeteria.
Ruan Yu suddenly became nervous.
Today is Tuesday. Xu Huaishi must be at school. In case she has a chance encounter, she turns her head and tells Xu Huaisong to listen to her. Isn't she a big step away from "falling horses"?
So, what reason does she have to refuse her mother?
No.
At twelve noon, Ruan Yu arrived near the school cafeteria.
Qu Lan came in a low-key manner, did not inform his old colleagues, and deliberately avoided the teachers' cafeteria. But at this point, it happened to hit the peak time for students to eat.
Looking at the students in blue and white school uniforms coming in and going out from a distance, they are mingling in twos and threes, full of vigor, and Ruan Yu sighs with emotion.
She lowered her head and glanced at the dress she was wearing, and found that she didn't fit in here, so she sighed with Qu Lan, "It's great to be young, Mom, you see I'm old."
Qu Lan glanced at her: "You're all old, what should mom do?"
"I'm going to borrow a school uniform. After you put it on, someone will ask you,'Classmate, how can I get to the art gallery."
"Poor mouth."
Ruan Yu Xiaoyingying held her hand and approached the row of swill buckets in front of the cafeteria. He heard a girl say to another girl: "Your chicken legs are not clean. Are you wasteful? "
The girl in question glared at her and said, "What do you know?"
Ruan Yu suddenly felt a little lost.
She felt that she might understand something that the girl didn't understand. ——Drumsticks are delicious, but if there is a sweetheart in the cafeteria, no matter how delicious the drumsticks are, there will only be a wasted life.
She used to be like this too.
My secret love when I was young was a pair of radar-like eyes, looking for him all the time in the crowd, but once I found him, he had to turn his head quickly, pretending not to see him, and then make every gesture of his own. Make a perfect lady look.
"Drumsticks, what I want. Xu Huaisong, I also want it. You can't have both. The one who sheds chicken legs and takes Xu Huaisong is also." —Think about it now, the secret love at that time was really simple and pure. .
The most romantic thing is to put a ladder for him over the wall at the back door of the school. The most passionate love is that he is willing to give up his beloved food for him.
And all the romance and enthusiasm does not need to be responded to, and he does not even need to recognize you.
Ruan Yu went into the cafeteria queuing in disbelief. When it was her turn, he did not hesitate to point to the braised chicken legs and said to the uncle in the cafeteria: "Three."
She wants to make up for the meat that she didn't eat enough in those years.
A circle of students cast surprised glances at her. Ruan Yu was a little embarrassed and said to Qu Lan: "Mom, you are too skinny, eat more meat."
Qu Lan whispered to her: "Only you are clever!"
The mother and daughter found a corner position to sit down.
There is no air conditioner in the student cafeteria, only a dozen big electric fans are blowing. Ruan Yu picked up the chopsticks and was ready to have a face-to-face with the three chicken legs, but suddenly heard the wind call a male voice over: "Xu Huaishi, the one just now, your boyfriend?"
She turned her head and saw a stubborn boy not far away with a dinner plate, talking to Xu Huaishi.
Can really run into it.
She was about to bury her head to keep a low profile, when she heard Xu Huaishi's answer: "How could a boyfriend be so handsome? That's my brother!"
Ruan Yu almost choked out with a mouthful of rice. In the next moment, Xu Huaisong came forward with the dinner plate and sat down opposite Xu Huaishi.
She never heard anything that the stubborn boy said to Xu Huaishi, because at this moment, her head was full of "buzzing".
Qu Lan saw that something was wrong with her and asked her what's wrong.
This voice attracted Xu Huaisong's attention.
She turned her head in fright, and at the moment his gaze swept over, she lowered her head and raised her hand, tightly covering her face, and shook her head with her mother to signal that it was all right.
At the end of the long table, Xu Huaisong didn't seem to notice anything, and said to the person opposite: "Eat quickly, and I will send you home after eating."
Xu Huaishi said "Well".
Ruan Yu understood that the college entrance examination was going to take place in a few days. In order to free up the examination room, there was a small holiday in the first year and second year of high school. Xu Huaisong estimated that he came to take his sister home.
Then, after this meal, she will be safe.
She moved her hair to the right, covered her face, and then picked up the chopsticks. She felt that the three chicken legs on the plate were dull, unable to chew or poke, crying without tears for a meal, and still in front of Qulan. Qiangyan smiled.
After eight years, I ate with Xu Huaisong again in this cafeteria, but the same as every time before, the result was not enough to eat.
When the Xu family brothers and sisters finally picked up the dinner plate and left, Ruan Yu was completely relieved.
After dinner, Qu Lan also planned to go back, but Ruan Yu was afraid that Xu Huaisong would not go far, so he deliberately dragged his mother around the school. Unexpectedly, he met the vice principal of No. 1 Middle School near the school building. He Chong.
This He Chong is Ruan Yu's English teacher at the time, and he has a very close relationship with Qu Lan and Ruan Chengru.
He recognized Mother Ruan at a glance, was surprised and delighted, and didn't say a word to blame her for coming.
This is no escape from the old days.
Fu Chong talked with Qu Lan all the way, smiled kindly, and said: "Today is really strange. I also ran into a student in my previous class just now. It's a coincidence that I was in the same class as Ruan Yu."
Ruan Yu knew that almost all he said was Xu Huaisong. Because at that time, the ninth class where she was in and the tenth class where Xu Huaisong was in the whole year were liberal arts classes, so there were many co-teachers.
She deliberately avoided the point and said with a smile: "Teacher He is full of peaches and plums, there is nothing strange."
This stubble was so mixed up.
The mother and daughter were invited to the principal’s office during the lunch break. After a while, a group of Qulan’s old colleagues all came over and the room was full.
Ruan Yu realized that this scene was not suitable for people of her generation, and proposed to go to campus and come back later.
The principal’s office is not far from the big playground, and after going out, walk a section of the forest road with cicadas.
The sun was not strong today, and Ruan Yu went all the way to the playground and sat on the stands. On the green field, a group of boys are playing football.
She took out the memo pad and pen she carried with her, and sat on it and wrote: "June 5th, the weather is overcast. Today I went back to Suzhou No. 1 Middle School..."
Just writing here, there was a loud shout from the other side: "Be careful!"
As soon as she looked up, she saw a football shot straight into the stands. Fortunately, it slammed into the railing in front of her and fell down.
She was startled, and her heart jumped like an afterthought.
The instigator quickly ran towards this direction, got under the stands, gasped and looked up at her: "Senior Sister, are you okay?"
Ruan Yu was taken aback.
Isn't this the "Ban Cun Tou" who spoke to Xu Huai Shi in the cafeteria just now?
How does he know that she is "Senior Sister"?
Before she got up, she shook her head and said "It's okay", and then asked: "Why call me Senior Sister?"
The other party smiled with white teeth: "Is that a school girl?"
The young man now has such a sweet mouth. It seems that the phrase "Senior Sister" is just casual.
Seeing her smiling and not answering, the boy held the football and continued to ask: "School girl, what are you doing here?"
Because this boy has been separated from Xu Huaisong, Ruan Yu felt that he was still safe, so he didn't act too coldly, and shook the sticky note in his hand: "Come here to gather inspiration and record life."
"Caifeng? Are you a painter? Or a writer?"
"A writer."
"What book did you write?"
"Romance novel."
"Then you know how to fall in love?"
Ruan Yu choked, then saw him throw the football to his classmates, climbed into the stands in three or two steps, and came to her: "Teach me how to chase girls!"
She laughed momentarily: "How high are you reading?"
"Sophomore."
"I will be in my third year of high school in a few days, and still thinking about falling in love?"
He glanced at her: "It's boring, all adults are the same."
Ruan Yu was angrily laughed: "Did you call me a school girl just now?"
"If you don't say it, it's not a school girl."
As he spoke, he got out of the stand from the gap in the railing, took off the school uniform jacket that was in the way, and threw it on the playground runway.
Ruan Yu stepped forward and shouted: "What's your name?"
Without looking back, the boy waved his back to her in the air: "Zhao Yi, Che Shiyi, it's not iron!" After speaking, he turned his head and joined the battle in the green field.
Ruan Yu sat in the stands for a while, and wrote on the sticky note: "When you are on a graduation trip, confess to her, you must confess to her." Then he tore off the piece of paper, got off the stand, and stuffed it into Zhao. In the pocket of Yi's coat.
After doing this, she received a call from Liu Mao, and said she was really embarrassed. He met several important customers during the visit and had to send them back to Hangzhou.
"Ah, so." Ruan Yu thought for a while and said, "It's okay, I just book two high-speed rail tickets..."
"Wait." Liu Mao interrupted her, "I still have an empty seat here, enough to send auntie, or I should ask her to take my car, be more comfortable, and be careful when you go back."
This is fine.
She said "Um", "Then I will trouble you."
Qu Lan finished recounting the past with her old colleagues and left the school. Ruan Yu accompanied her to a nearby shopping mall to wait for Liu Mao to finish her work. It was almost evening after meeting him.
Mother Ruan originally wanted to take the high-speed train with Ruan Yu, but thought that if that were the case, after returning to Hangzhou, her daughter would have to send herself back to the suburbs, which was also troublesome, so she accepted Liu Mao’s kindness and called her before leaving. Pay attention to safety and report safety at any time.
Ruan Yu said "Okay" and was about to take a taxi to the high-speed rail station, but it was raining in the sky.
She gave her an umbrella to her mother, thinking that there will be a lot of open-air roads later, so she had to go back into the mall and buy another one. It took time to come and go, but the rain was even heavier, and there was no need to hold the umbrella. Useless.
The heavy rain crackled and hit the umbrella, and a puddle of muddy water quickly accumulated on the bumpy road.
On a faint sky, Ruan Yu stood by the road and took a taxi with a taxi app. After a while, he received a call from Qu Lan: "Yu Yu, it's raining heavily. Did you get a taxi?"
"Mom, don't worry, I bought an umbrella, and a driver took the order."
As soon as she finished speaking, a sports car flew past, the tires rolled over the bumpy road, and a puddle of muddy water was splashed on the hem of her white skirt.
She held the breath because she didn't want to make Qu Lan worry, but after hanging up the phone, she held her mobile phone and worried.
In this weather, the ghost took her order.
She put the umbrella on her shoulder, wiped the skirt with a tissue, and kept refreshing the order page. She was in a hurry and might not be able to catch up with the high-speed train. Suddenly, she saw a Porsche Cayenne coming towards the side of the road where she was, not slow.
With the encounter just now, Ruan Yu immediately backed up and evaded. Unexpectedly, the car slowed down suddenly, passed slowly when approaching the pothole, and then completely stopped in front of her.
The rear window was rolled down, and Xu Huaishi's head poked out: "It's really you, Sister Ruan! Why are you here?"
Ruan Yu was taken aback and saw Xu Huaisong in the driver's seat.
She hurriedly replied: "I'm taking a taxi, ready to go to the high-speed rail station."
Xu Huaishi greeted her: "Then you get in the car and we will take you there!"
Ruan Yuzheng hesitated and saw that the front window was also rolled down. Xu Huaisong said blankly, "You can't park here."
She shouted "Oh" twice, hurriedly closed her umbrella and walked to the back seat, but she watched Xu Huaishi wave her hand: "I can't sit down behind!"
Ruan Yu had to turn his head and get into the passenger seat.
The car was brand new, and she found it the moment she opened the door, so after sitting down, it was harder to put down the wet and dirty umbrella, so that all the water drops on her skirt.
Xu Huaisong glanced at her as he started the car: "Throw it away."
She said "Thank you" with an "um", and then put the umbrella under her feet less casually, and heard him say, "Seat belt."
Xu Huaishi in the back seat suddenly leaned forward: "Brother, the gentleman and male protagonist in ordinary novels will help the female protagonist wear a seat belt at this time."
Xu Huaisong and Ruan Yu: "..."
Is that a gentleman? Called "conspiracy unruly"?
Ruan Yugan laughed, "I'll do it myself." He pulled the seat belt.
Because she knew how Xu Huaisong was in Suzhou, she didn't know it from beginning to end. After a while, she saw him turning the steering wheel with one hand and opening the storage box with the other. He took out a clean white towel from it and handed it to her.
She took it for a while, then said "thank you", and then slowly wiped the mud and water stains on the skirt.
Xu Huai-song said with a "hmm": "Send me a poem first."
After all, she ran into someone's car. Ruan Yu was embarrassed to say that if this were the case, she might not be able to catch up with the high-speed rail, only thinking about changing her booking if it was too late.
But when Xu Huai-song sent Xu Huai-shi home, unloaded the large bag she had placed in the back seat, and returned to the driver's seat, she heard him say: "Don't go to the high-speed rail station, go directly to Hangzhou."
