Chapter 42

The house Li Shangying rented was an ordinary private house, which shared a small yard with the landlord. It had a kitchen and bathroom, but it was relatively narrow, with no living room and only a square bedroom.The bedroom is very clean. Although there are many things, it is neatly organized. It can be seen that Li Shangying does not live alone.

Li Shangshui and Ren Yang went in and stood, the small bedroom was even more cramped.Li Shangying took two cans of ice tea for the two of them indifferently, and let them take care of themselves. Anyway, there is a computer and TV in the room, so she went to the kitchen to cook.

Li Shangshui looked at the furnishings in the house with mixed emotions. He didn't expect Li Shangying to settle down here in a warm little home. He thought she wasn't the kind of person who could settle down casually.Thinking about these years, she worked hard outside alone, and she should have suffered a lot.As a relative, he is not qualified. Originally, they are not qualified to be each other's relatives.

Ren Yang sat in front of the small table, with his long legs stretched under the table, and sighed: "If my sister is as virtuous as your sister in the future, I won't worry that she won't be able to marry."

Li Shangshui smiled wryly, that is what you have never seen her before.It was inconvenient to say this, so he acquiesced to Ren Yang's words.

Li Shangying acted quickly, and four dishes and one soup were served on the table, which was delicious in color, fragrance and taste, and Li Shangshui was surprised again.

Ren Yang looked at the dishes cheerfully, almost drooling, after shopping for a long time, he was really hungry.Li Shangying served them a good meal, and Ren Yang ate it unceremoniously, not forgetting to say flatteringly: "Sister, you are really beautiful and handy, whoever marries you is really lucky."

Li Shangshui was taken aback for a moment. The siblings had been avoiding this topic, but Ren Yang pointed it out. He really didn't know what to say about him.

Li Shangying didn't respond, she ate her meal quietly, Ren Yang's hot face was cold butt/ass, only now did she realize that she seemed to have said something wrong.

He looked at Li Shangshui, and Li Shangshui just ate slowly and ignored him.

Ren Yang's movements slowed down, feeling the stiff atmosphere between the two of them, and the delicious food just now felt a bit tasteless for some reason.He wanted to say something to ease the atmosphere, but he was afraid of making too many mistakes, so he also learned to keep silent.

It was Li Shangying who broke the silence first: "I'm married."

Li Shangshui raised his head in surprise, looked at her in disbelief, then nodded in understanding, he already had a premonition, didn't he?

"He is also an ordinary factory employee. He is not at home today, but maybe you don't want to see him." Li Shangying put down her chopsticks, stared at the job bowl in front of her, and said calmly, "I am very satisfied with my life now, although I am not rich. But no one will beat and scold me every day. The purpose of returning home during the Chinese New Year is to separate my household registration, and then we will go to register for marriage.”

Ren Yang listened in surprise, and stopped moving his chopsticks, hesitating whether he should get up and go out, so that the siblings could have a good talk.The movement of him putting down the bowl was caught by Li Shangshui. Li Shangshui reached out and held his leg under the table, motioning him not to leave.So he had no choice but to continue to sit and be a cold-eyed bystander.

"Don't blame me for not telling you, I know we don't take each other seriously. Anyway, if you leave in the future, I won't interfere with you." Li Shangying looked up at Li Shangshui, "I will definitely take care of grandma's life , I mentioned asking her to come and live with me, but she is reluctant to leave her hometown, and I can't live with Li Ligui, but no matter what happens, I will still put grandma first. As for Li Ligui, I don't want to Never mind, if he is sick and lacks money in the future, you can come to me, but I will never go back."

"Don't worry," Li Shangshui gritted his teeth, "Just live your life well, and just pretend I haven't been here."

Li Shangying's words sounded cold to outsiders, but Li Shangshui knew that this was the best Li Shangying could do.

Li Shangying smiled miserably: "Our family is born to commit crimes against others. I am content with living such a life now. I hope you can take care of yourself. If there is anything that can help, you mention it, and I will try my best to help you. "

This was probably the softest thing she had ever said in front of Li Shangshui in her life.

Li Shangshui felt bored and said in a low voice, "Okay. Thank you for hosting this meal. I'm going back. Goodbye."

Li Shangying didn't stay either, watching Li Shangshui dragging Ren Yang out, the courtyard door creaked, and then fell silent again, her straight shoulders finally collapsed, she buried her face in her hands, and sobbed softly.

The family affection she had longed for so much was afraid that it would never come again.

Li Shangshui dragged Ren Yang along the alley for a while, then stopped suddenly and hugged Ren Yang, without speaking for a while.Ren Yang only felt a little wet on his shoulders, and Li Shangshui cried.

Ren Yang let him hug him, stroking his back with both hands.Although he didn't quite understand what the siblings were doing, he always supported Li Shangshui.

Li Shangshui let go of Ren Yang and asked him, "Are you full? Let's find another restaurant to eat."

Ren Yang was so angry that he wanted to laugh: "I blame me for talking too much, I didn't even fill Ah Shui with food."

"Forget it, don't mention her, the only relationship left between us is blood." Li Shangshui raised his head and wiped his face, and said nonchalantly, "I just met her suddenly, found out that she was married, and heard her say something like that." It's just a little unbearable. I can do whatever I want in the future, and it won't affect my life."

Ren Yang nodded: "Ah Shui is right, but don't cry anymore."

Embarrassed, Li Shangshui walked away, changed the subject and said, "I passed by a noodle restaurant this morning. It looked really good to me. I want to try it."

Ren Yang chuckled, Li Shangshui and Li Shangying could be regarded as meeting Li Shangying and laughing away their grievances.

This chance encounter became a small episode. When he returned to school, Li Shangshui continued to attend classes, work part-time, and fell in love by the way. It seemed like nothing had happened, but he couldn't tell what had changed.

Now that Li Shangying can get out of the shadow of his family and regain his own life, he has no reason to care about the childhood trauma brought to him by those who can't get on the stage.And Li Ligui is just a poor father, after a hundred years, he will return to heaven and earth with nothing more than a piece of loess, so there is no need to worry about him.

As soon as the May Day holiday passed, time passed quickly. Li Shangshui focused all his attention on his studies. As expected, his thesis on constitutional law was praised by the constitutional teacher, and he only participated in one scene of the micro-movie shooting. It is also a shot of sitting in a classroom and studying.Their group made a literary film. There was not a single line in the film, and they only used various typical scenes to record their life for a year. After editing it, it was regarded as a clear stream among all the bloody romance films, and it was unanimously awarded It was well received in the class.

As for Ren Yang and his group, it was a mudslide, purely funny.It’s about the girlfriend who robbed the heroine’s boyfriend, and the heroine turned against the girlfriend, and later the girlfriend was dumped by her boyfriend, so depressed, she went to the old restaurant to drink away her sorrows, but met the heroine by chance, and both of them got drunk, Tucao each other, the final reconciliation story.The lines of the characters are dense, and even the music is so well matched that people can't bear to look directly at it. At the end of the film, the encounter between the two girlfriends, the scumbag and the scumbag's boyfriend at the lakeside set off a climax. The whole class laughed uncontrollably. It's also a perfect ending.

In the evening, Gao Weitao commented on the film of Ren Yang’s group in the dormitory, and said doubtfully: “Ren Yangyang, after watching your performance, I really think you have the potential to be gay. The girlfriend you have been hiding from us will not Is it a boyfriend?"

Ren Yang played the scumbag's boyfriend. Although he only appeared at the end of the film, and his line was only "Honey, I want to buy a mask", his acting skills were explosive and the effect was outstanding, which made people very impressed.

And Gao Weitao has never met Ren Yang's girlfriend so far. The last time he asked Li Shangshui to secretly take photos, Li Shangshui failed to complete the mission, and only dismissed Gao Weitao with the excuse that he forgot to take pictures and was too embarrassed to take pictures.That's why he still has it in his heart. Besides, Ren Yang has never seen him go out to accompany his girlfriend except fooling around with Li Shangshui on weekdays, but he keeps saying "my wife", which can't help but make people suspicious.

When Gao Weitao asked, Li Shangshui and Ren Yang were stunned at the same time, Niu Junzi also half-jokingly said: "Even if he has a boyfriend, why, you still want to grab him?"

"Fuck off," Gao Weitao scolded, "I can't satisfy my curiosity, why don't I just think about it?"

"Brother Tao," Ren Yangyu pulled the chair earnestly, turned Gao Weitao's body, and let him face himself, "It's not that I don't want you to see me, it's just that my wife is very shy. Let people know our relationship, afraid of being laughed at. As a man who loves his wife, what do you want me to do?"

Gao Weitao was skeptical: "You kid is running the train with your mouth full again..."

"I swear," Ren Yang pointed to the sky, "If you don't believe me, ask Ah Shui."

"Then Ah Shui has seen it too?"

Li Shangshui answered immediately: "I just saw it from a distance, and didn't go up to say hello, and I'm short-sighted, so I can't see the face clearly, but he really has a girlfriend, and it's not Xu Ruxin."

Ren Yang wanted to laugh when he heard him follow the lie, and finally held back, and said seriously: "Did you hear that? Ah Shui said this, don't you believe me or him?"

Li Shangshui thought for a while and added: "Don't worry, I will confess to you one day."

The subject of this sentence may be Ren Yang, or himself, but he will not always keep it from them.

Ren Yang said yes, Gao Weitao stopped pursuing it, and immediately became sad: "Something like Ren Yang has a girlfriend who is determined to follow him, why can't I find it? This time I am in a group with Xia Qing, I thought I could get close , let her understand me better, but she became the heroine, and only played with the hero..."

Niu Junzi said coldly beside him: "Okay, stop howling! The most important thing to be a man is to have self-knowledge. The difference between you and Ren Yang is not 01:30. He has good looks, can learn, and can draw , What do you know? You play games in the dormitory, you look big and thick, and when you go out to be a security guard, people think you are too ugly."

Ren Yang laughed straight after hearing this, and Li Shangshui couldn't help but secretly laugh too.

Gao Weitao covered his chest with one hand, pointed at Niu Junzi with the other, and said angrily, "You...are you talking nonsense?!"

Li Shangshui sat at the table, looked at the diary, and listened to them talking beside him, and felt a little warm.Looking back on the nearly one year, it may seem ordinary, but I have really experienced a lot of things.Looking at the sunset on the first day he arrived in this city, he felt only endless melancholy in his heart, but now he actually has the feeling of seeing the dawn through the clouds and mists.Those people and things that he met here are enough to be well written in the diary and treasured. After reading it for many years, he will understand that the so-called home is not a city, not a house, but a place. No matter where you wander, someone is waiting for you and understands your sense of belonging.
