My 1991

Chapter 420, old friend in the story

Uncle Meng is a deep patient who loves fishing.

In the past few days, Lu An and Meng Qingshui accompanied him to the suburban reservoir to fish twice, but they didn't catch many fish and even broke Uncle Meng's favorite fishing rod, which made him feel distressed there for a long time.

Lu An comforted him: "Uncle, if you don't leave the old one, you won't get the new one. If I have a chance, I'll buy you two good ones."

"Haha, I'm just waiting for your words. Since you're not short of money anyway, I'm looking forward to it in advance." Meng Zhenhai said happily.

After failing to catch any fish, Lu An put the fishing rod he bought temporarily in the trunk, and then the three of them went to the reservoir owner to buy some fish and take them home to have a tooth ceremony.

On the morning of the fifth day, the sky finally cleared up.

Lu An took Qing Shui and his little sister to buy some New Year's goods and then headed to Qianzhen. When they passed Liuduzhai and headed towards Qijiang, they encountered a broken down shuttle bus.

What's even more surprising is that among the passengers who were forced to stay, Lu An met two acquaintances, Nan Shaoqing and Sun Lina.

The young man's body was covered with bags, which looked heavy at first glance.

And Sun Lina was even more exaggerated, holding a baby in her hand, rocking and coaxing the child in her hand.

Lu An and Meng Qingshui looked at each other, decisively pulled over and opened the door.

There are few private cars these days, not to mention an Audi car. When it drove over from a distance, it attracted the attention of the group of people on the roadside, and they stared at it without blinking.

No, as soon as Lu An and Meng Qingshui opened the door, the male Shaoqing and Sun Lina recognized them.

Sun Lina was very surprised and shouted: "Yeah! Lu An, Meng Qingshui, you can meet you here."

"Comrade Sun Lina, long time no see." Lu An waved like a leader and walked over jokingly.

The four of them all came from the No. 1 Middle School in Shao City and were all from Qianzhen. They had not seen each other for more than a year and were not as unfamiliar as they imagined. Instead, they felt a sense of intimacy that they had not seen for a long time. They immediately started chattering together.

After greeting each other, Lu An introduced the young girl Song Jia who was getting off the car behind them, and then asked: "Are you coming back from the capital?"

The male young man is still the same as before, he doesn't talk much and prefers to communicate with body language, such as shaking his head.

Sun Lina was still as enthusiastic as ever, "No, the young gentleman has been on winter vacation a long time ago. The child has been disobedient for the past two days. He went to the County People's Hospital for a few days and was discharged today. Unexpectedly, he had bad luck and the car could not drive here. It moved, something went wrong.”

Lu An leaned over to tease the children, and then called to the three of them, "It's cold outside. Get in the car first. Qingshui happens to be in the same direction as you, so there's no need to take a detour."

Several of them were classmates and had known each other since junior high school. Lu An, Meng Qingshui and Nan Shaoqing were famous figures in that generation. There were many conversations along the way, which was very lively.

Meng Qingshui asked: "When was the child born?"

Sun Lina replied: "On the Mid-Autumn Festival."

As she said that, she looked at Lu An: "By the way, if I remember correctly, Lu An, you also have a Mid-Autumn Festival birthday, right?"

"Yes, but don't think that I am taking advantage." Lu An said with a smile.

Sun Lina happily responded, "No way, if my son is half as capable as you in the future, I, as a mother, would be willing to die right now."

The male young man then spoke up, "You may not die, but what will happen to your child if you die?"

Sun Lina choked him, "Just find another one."

The young man said: "You are dead. How can I live alone? What else can I ask for?"

Lu An's eyelids twitched, he was so loving.

He immediately observed three seconds of silence for Wu Ying. It is estimated that based on the relationship between the two couples, even if something happens to Sun Lina one day, the male Shaoqing will probably not look for her again.

Sun Lina and Shaoqing's home is in Xuetangwan, and the Meng family's old home is in Jintan. The two villages are next to each other and belong to the Weijia section below Qianzhen.

Strangely enough, 80% of the population in this place are surnamed Wei, but none of the people Lu An knows are surnamed Wei, such as Meng Qingshui, Sun Lina, Nan Shaoqing, and Li Rou, who also belongs to Xuetang Bay.

On the contrary, Wei Fangyuan and his family from Shangcun were separated from the Wei family.

When the car passed Jintan, Lu An asked Qingshui and his younger sister to get off first, and then continued to drive down the family of three.

After they were some distance away from the Meng family, Sun Lina suddenly mentioned Li Rou, "Lu An, Li Rou came back yesterday, do you want to meet her?"

A walking tractor came from the opposite side, and Lu An parked the car aside: "Ah? Aren't you at the county hospital these days? How did you know?"

The male young man who had not spoken much spoke now, "My house and Li Rou's house are right across the street, separated by a road. When I called home yesterday, my dad said he saw her."

Thinking of Li Rou, Lu An couldn't help but think of her father and the best brother and sister-in-law, and curiously asked: "Her family is back?"

Sun Lina hissed, "How is that possible? After that happened, her father and her brother were never seen again. Only Li Rou's grandparents were at home."

The three of them were chatting about the Li family, and the car arrived at the door of the Li family unknowingly.

Coincidentally, Li Rou was taking pictures in Shaiguping, squatting down to take pictures of a little girl with braids.

Suddenly seeing her best friend, Sun Lina rolled down the car window, put her head in and shouted excitedly, "Li Rou! Li Rou!"

Li Rou turned around and was a little happy when she saw Sun Lina. But when her eyes touched Lu An, she was stunned, then got up and walked over.

Seeing this, Sun Lina winked at the young man in a funny way: "Let's go quickly, don't get in the way."

The male young gentleman looked at Li Rou and then at Lu An. As he got off the car, he said, "Lu An, don't leave in a hurry. It's rare for you to come back and forth to Xuetang Bay. Come inside and sit down."

"okay."

Lu An was speechless towards the two of them. After watching them leave, he turned to look at Li Rou.

"Lu An, I didn't expect us to meet again."

After looking at each other for a long time, Li Rou was the first to break the deadlock.

"Yeah." In order to show politeness, Lu An hummed, unbuckled his seat belt and got out of the car.

"You haven't changed." Li Rou said after looking at each other for a while.

"Yeah." Lu An hummed again.

Li Rou asked, "Do you think I have changed?"

Luan nodded, "It's changed a lot."

Li Rou asked: "Where is Da Da?"

Lu An said truthfully: "You have become more energetic and more beautiful?"

"Really? How does it compare with Meng Qingshui?" Li Rou asked brightly.

Lu An smiled and said, "It has been so long, but your competitive spirit has not changed at all."

Li Rou said, "Don't interrupt, you haven't answered my question yet."

Lu An thought for a while and said, "Qing Shui is always changing."

He only said the first half of the sentence.

The potential meaning of the second half of the sentence is: Qingshui, who has broken away from the youthful appearance in high school, has also undergone big changes now, and his refreshing temperament is very attractive.

He believed that the second half of the sentence could be understood based on the other person's IQ.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Li Rou fell silent and said after a long time: "It seems that in your heart, I am not as good as Qing Shui."

Lu An wanted to defend himself, but he swallowed it back.

Seeing that he was hesitant to speak, Li Rou raised the camera in her hand and said, "Take a photo, we haven't taken a photo together yet."

Lu An did not refuse and said yes happily.

Li Rou shouted from the air to Sun Lina who was secretly watching the show, "Stop looking and come and take a picture for us."

"Huh? Are you rekindling your old relationship?" Sun Lina handed the child to her mother-in-law, then crossed the road and came to the two of them.

Before Lu An could speak, Li Rou had already spoken, "Lina, can't you keep your mouth shut? This place is very close to the Meng family. If you talk nonsense, be careful that Meng Qingshui will miss you."

Hearing this, Sun Lina pursed her lips and said, "If you are worried about me, just worry about me. Even if you, a best friend, dare to stab a man in the back, she has already regarded you as an enemy."

Lu An couldn't listen anymore and immediately interrupted the two of them: "Okay, don't treat me like transparent air. Take pictures quickly. It's raining heavily."

The rain fell as fast as it could, and the three of them just finished taking a group photo, and then fell to the ground with a patter.

Li Rou put the camera away and said to him: "My house is not popular. It's too deserted, so I won't invite you into the house. I'll accompany you to the male young lady's house to sit for a while."

Lu An looked back at the Li family, feeling a little sad. Li Rou's father was so prosperous in Shao City back then. He had countless money, hundreds of people under his command, and two companies. The enviable scene was gone in a blink of an eye. So desolate.

It really complied with that sentence, it’s up to God whether it’s up to you or not.

The male young lady has three sisters, and the house is full of adults and children. Maybe because he came in an Audi, both the elder and the younger are full of curiosity about him. They all ask who he is and start asking about Lu An. I felt comfortable, and I didn’t stay long in the end. I had a cup of tea and chatted for a while before leaving.

Li Rou walked outside the house, and just as he was about to close the car door, she asked: "Lu An, do you want this photo? If so, give me your school address and I will mail it to you then.

Or I can send it to Wei Fangyuan and ask her to forward it to you. "

Lu An knew what she meant by this, but due to fate, he was not so stingy and immediately gave the other party the zip code address of the NTU studio.

After saying that, Lu An said goodbye: "Then I'm leaving. I wish you a Happy New Year in advance."

Li Rou waved her right hand slightly in front of her chest, "Happy New Year! Goodbye!"

The Audi drove away, turned a corner, and quickly disappeared on the other side of the mountain.

Sun Lina next to her couldn't help but ask, "Lu An has a BB phone number, why didn't you ask him for it?"

Li Rou asked, "Why do you want to ask him?"

Sun Lina was at a loss for words, and said for a long time: "I thought you would want it. If you couldn't be shameless, you would have told me earlier, and I would ask for it for you."

Li Rou shook her head.

Sun Lina stared at her and asked confusedly: "Have you really given up?"

Li Rou did not answer directly, "I don't know, but my mind is not on that right now."

Sun Lina gestured, "He's Lu An. Have you lost interest so quickly? Or is he not a woman?"

Li Rou turned around, "If I were in high school, I would try hard, but now that several years have passed, things have changed."

Sun Lina explained her expression, and finally spread her hands helplessly: "Okay, I was treated as a donkey liver lung for my good intentions. I hope you will be so relieved when you hear the news about his marriage and children in the future."

Meeting Li Rou was purely by chance, and Lu An didn't feel too disturbed.

To be honest, Li Rou didn’t have many scenes in his life, only two scenes left a lasting impression on his memory:

One of them stabbed his best friend Qing Shui in the back, causing Qing Shui to transfer to another school.

The second one is that after the great changes in the Li family, Li Rou used and abandoned everyone around her one by one in order to avoid being chased by her enemies, including the first time she met him through life and death, but in the end she confessed her love to him at the train station and returned her kiss. Give him a look.

Generally speaking, although this girl is very beautiful, the deepest impression left on him is not her beauty, but her "self".

Or, to put it another way, extremely selfish.

Passing through a low hill, the Audi returned to Xuetangwan Village and finally stopped at the old residence of the Meng family.

Due to the rain, the Meng family's grandparents were moving the sundries hanging in the corridor to the main room. Meng Qingshui and Song Jia were helping.

"Grandpa, grandma, I'm here to see you."

It is said that sweet words are worth money. Lu An always likes to call people and elders. Anyway, he just wastes some words and the harvest is indeed full of goodwill. He is never stingy with this kind of business without losing money.

"Hey, Xiao Lu is here." Grandpa and grandma were very happy to see Lu An.

The last time they told their son and daughter-in-law about their little granddaughter and Lu An staying in the bedroom until late at night, Meng Zhenhai and Li Meng didn't react at all and thought it was normal. Immediately, the grandparents knew something about it. This little Lu will be designated in the future. He is the son-in-law of our Meng family.

Since we are a family, we must have good food, drink and entertain them with care. No, Lu An was so full of food on the table in the evening.

After dinner, everyone chatted around the charcoal fire for a while. Originally, Meng Qingshui and his grandparents wanted to keep the two of them overnight, but Song Jia was not used to it. She said she missed her eldest sister and wanted to go back.

There was no choice but to follow Lu An's younger sister's will and stood up to leave.

Before leaving, he turned to Qing Shui and asked, "Would you like to come with me? Come and stay with us for two days?"

These words have far-reaching implications. What does it mean when a young girl who has not yet left the court goes to a boy's house to stay for a few days?

It’s self-evident what it represents.

The grandparents looked at each other, smiled and said nothing. After all, both of them were retired state cadres. Their knowledge and mind were not comparable to those of ordinary country people. They adopted a non-interference attitude towards the feelings of Lu An and their little granddaughter. .

Song Jia's eyes rolled around Qing Shui a few times, but she also remained silent, just shouting in her heart: Sister Fangyuan, Sister Fangyuan, you really have no sense. My brother has many women outside who want to sleep with him, but you just don't look down on him. , very angry.

Meng Qingshui was naturally very happy when the man she liked invited her, but when she thought about the entanglement between him and her sister, her rare happiness was tempered.

In the end, Lu An figured out her state of mind, and then regardless of it, he reached out and pulled her out the door, "Grandpa and grandma, let's leave first. I will bring water down in two days."

"Okay, it's getting dark, please slow down on the road." The Meng family's grandparents personally sent people to the road.

Just as he was about to drive away, the neighbor suddenly told them that the road to Shangcun was covered with ice and cars could not drive in, so they had to walk.

Lu An was dubious when he heard this, and thought it had been several days. Hasn't the ice melted yet?

But when I think that Shangcun is located in the Xuefeng Mountains, extending into the mountains along the way, and the altitude is increasing throughout the journey, combined with the experience of previous years, my heart suddenly beats.

After thinking about it, he ran back to the main room and called his eldest sister Lu Yan. The result was exactly like this. The ice on the road had not yet melted, so the car could not get in due to a skid, so he could only walk.

Lu An put down the receiver and asked Qing Shui, "I have to walk, and I have to walk 7 miles. Are you afraid?"

Meng Qingshui pursed her lips slightly, "Wait a minute, I'll go find some flashlights."

"Okay." When Lu An said yes, he saw his little sister staring at him.

Lu An quietly hit her on the head, and Song Jia immediately complained in a low voice: "When you have a wife, you forget your mother, and when you have a woman, you forget your sister. I'm talking about you, Big Pocket Lu."

Lu An hit her on the head again: "Why is it called Lu Big Pocket? What kind of nonsense nickname did you get?"

Song Jia covered her head and argued to herself: "This is not what I said. I secretly read the horoscopes for you and eldest sister. The fortune teller said that you have big pockets and can hold many wives in the future."

Lu An was frightened to death. He glanced at his grandparents and Qing Shui who were looking for flashlights in the bedroom, "Can you speak properly? Can you speak according to the situation?"

Song Jia blinked her big eyes, looking very innocent, "Brother, I really didn't say it randomly. I didn't believe it at first, but after I showed you three horoscopes in one go, I believed it."

Lu An asked: "How many sisters-in-law?"

Song Jia stretched out a slap and said nothing.

Luan asked, "What do you mean?"

Song Jia said, "I don't know what it means. This is what the fortune teller said. Is it five? Or can't you count it with one slap? It all depends on your luck, brother."

Lu An's eyelids twitched and he skipped these words, "What about the eldest sister's marriage?"

Song Jia put her hands behind her back and said, "It's coming soon, either next year or the year after."

At this time, Qingshui and the others came out of the bedroom. Lu An nodded and did not ask further questions.

The road into the mountain was not easy to walk. The three of them had straw ropes tied to the soles of their feet, holding a flashlight in their left hand and a cane in their right hand. The flat road was not bad, but the three of them walked as fast as flying. At least it was smooth, but the uphill section was really tiring. People should take every step carefully and take a break every time they go up a steep slope.

The downhill section was even more dangerous. Lu An fell twice, and Qingshui and Xiaomei fell at least five times. The straw rope could not stop them at all. Amidst a burst of ouch, the three of them were afraid of falling, for fear of falling to the road. Later, the three of them used crutches to help each other walk.

When we returned to the village, it was already after eight o'clock, and it was pitch black. Although there was electricity these days, the electricity bill was expensive, and everyone had no money left in their pockets to waste. They usually lit kerosene lamps when they were not doing anything serious. Some families simply go into the dark and are reluctant to part with kerosene lamps.

But it's the same everywhere, where there is poverty there is wealth. The canteen at the intersection and the party secretary's house are always brightly lit. The former lights up to collect card table fees, while the latter is simply rich.

The three of them stamped their feet, stamping off the snow foam on their shoes, and then reached out to knock on the door. There was light in the room, and it seemed that the eldest sister Lu Yan was not asleep yet.

After two consecutive shots, footsteps came out of the back room and asked loudly: "Who is it?"

"Sister, eldest sister, it's me, I'm back!" Before Lu An and Meng Qingshui could speak, the little girl at the back was already jumping lively.

The door opened with a few clicks. Lu Yan was holding a spoon in her left hand, and her right hand was covered with pigweed and rice bran. It looked like she had just been feeding pigs in the backyard.

When she saw her younger brothers and sisters outside the door, her face was full of uncontrollable joy. When she saw Meng Qingshui clearly in the middle, she wiped her apron with her right hand and hurriedly pulled Qingshui through the door, "Qingshui is here. Come on in and sit down."

Seeing this scene, Song Jia's face instantly collapsed, and she cursed a lot of words in her heart that she didn't even understand.

Just as Lu Yan was lighting up the charcoal fire and pouring hot tea for the three of them, her aunt and sister-in-law, who heard the news, also rushed over with flashlights.

When they saw the eldest nephew bringing back a girl, who was the daughter of the famous Meng family in the former town, the two aunts were so happy that they hurriedly came over to talk to Meng Qingshui, making the family feud.

Song Jia, who was left out, was very depressed. She usually revolved around her, but today she stopped talking about her. She couldn't help muttering in her heart: If the fortune teller is reliable, Sister-in-law Qingshui, you are just one of the sisters-in-law, so you can steal my limelight. , when the time comes, I will hug a sister-in-law who is more beautiful than you to be my thigh, and I can redeem this tone.
