Chapter 14 Long Talk

14. The music of "Blessed Lovers" began to enter the plot of "anti-marriage", and the voice of the violin became high-pitched.

Zhou Ruxin inexplicably felt a little dry mouth, subconsciously stretched out her tongue and licked her lips.

Lin Suqing leaned over and poured a cup of tea for Zhou Ruxin: "If Ruxin is willing to take care of me, that would be my honor. It's a pity..."

Zhou Ruxin wanted to stop this topic at this point, but now that she heard her say this, she felt that this was originally a joke between friends, and if she cared too much, it would appear deliberately unfamiliar, so she added in passing: "It's a pity what?"

Lin Suqing smiled: "It's a pity that you have already been taken care of by the teacher."

What is this nonsense?Zhou Ruxin didn't understand Lin's humor very well.She took a sip of tea silently, um, it really tastes good, it tastes a bit bitter in the mouth, but the aftertaste has a deep sweetness, she looked at Lin Suqing with puzzled eyes.

Lin Suqing also took a sip of tea: "Well, it's still as delicious as I remember. Ruxin, look, you get up early and come back late every day, stay at school during the day, and communicate with students or parents on weekends. Which teacher on weekdays If you need to change classes, you are always on call. Isn’t this being taken care of by the teaching? Tsk tsk, those little lovers who are taken care of by others still have their own time and space. You, I guess it’s best to sleep in the school gone."

Listening to this, Zhou Ruxin thought about her usual situation, well, what Su Qing said made sense.

No, didn't Suqing meet him for the first time today: "Suqing, how do you know these things?"

Lin Suqing didn't answer, but just looked at her with a smile, with gentle eyes, for a long time.

Zhou Ruxin stared at her for so long that she wondered if there was a flower growing on her face, or if there was something on her face?

After a long period of silence, Lin Suqing finally spoke, but she didn't answer Zhou Ruxin's question just now: "Ruxin, after the final exam in the last semester of the third year of high school, I went home and told my parents that I must go to college, and my parents saw me. I took the No.1 liberal arts exam again. I really couldn’t bear to force me to drop out of school and give up the college entrance examination, but my family really didn’t have any money. My brother also struggled. At the end of that semester, he suddenly got No.1 in science. I also want to see him have a promising day. That night, I tossed and turned all night, and when I got up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom, I heard my parents still talking about the two of us going to school. Accompanied by a tangled sigh."

Zhou Ruxin looked at Lin Suqing, and couldn't help feeling uneasy. She really wanted to say something, but she opened her mouth, but she didn't say anything.

Lin Suqing didn't take it seriously, and continued to talk slowly: "Ru Xin, other people's parents are worried that their children are not promising, but my parents are worried that their children are too promising. I heard my mother discussing with my father that Qing'er is so outstanding. Is it really good not to let her go to college? After a long silence, Dad said, how about borrowing money from others at that time. Ru Xin, although I was not very sensible when I was young, I have heard more or less This kind of private loan, the interest is very high, and many families have been ruined by this kind of private loan. My parents gave birth to me, raised me, and provided for me to go to school. Although they have some patriarchal ideas, but over the years, They didn't really treat me wrong, how could I bear to let my parents suffer so much."

Hearing this, Zhou Ruxin's first reaction was: "Then you are going to give up your college dream like this?"

"Of course not," Lin Suqing gave Zhou Ruxin a reassuring smile, "Idiot, I definitely didn't give up, otherwise how could I sit here and tell you these things today. If I really gave up, I would never I have the face to see you."

Zhou Ruxin thought about it, yes, Jieying's unit recruits people, and they all have to graduate from a bachelor's degree. Since Suqing can work with Jieying, it means that she must have a bachelor's degree, and she is really an idiot!

Lin Suqing looked at her: "Ru Xin, at the beginning you told me that you could take a loan to go to school, and you could also work and study at school to repay the money. I kept these in mind, so I never thought of giving up going to college. However, at that time my The head teacher also found that my mood was not quite right, so he came to talk to me after the final exam. After I told him about the situation at home, he made a suggestion to me, that is, to suspend school for one year. I can work while studying by myself, and come back to take the college entrance examination after I have saved for a year. Moreover, if my brother and I do not enroll at the same time, the burden on the family will be lighter. He said he believed in my self-study ability , and believe in my willpower."

"So, you chose to take a year off from school to go out to work, but you didn't receive any letters I sent you that semester, did you?" Zhou Ruxin asked.

"I'm sorry, Ru Xin." Lin Suqing sincerely apologized, "I did make a decision that night. After the Chinese New Year, I went to school to complete the suspension procedures, and then went to Huizhou to work with my neighbor's sister, but I have a duty A good classmate helped me receive the letter, so I still received your letter later, but it was half a year later when I went home. At that time, the college entrance examination had already been completed, and the notification letter had already been issued. I have guessed You should have gone to the Normal University in the provincial capital, but I can't write a Normal University on the recipient's address, let Zhou Ruxin accept it, let alone..."

Seeing her hesitate to speak, Zhou Ruxin understood her state of mind at that time. No matter how confident she was, Lin Suqing was still a working girl who was on leave of school at that time. She would not want Zhou Ruxin to know about such a situation. .

"Then what happened next?" Zhou Ruxin asked.

"Later, um, my brother didn't do well in the exams that year. In fact, all the science students in the third middle school did not do well in the exams, so although my brother still took the third grade in the exam, he still only took the ordinary undergraduate course. You know , Those undergraduate schools charge more expensive fees, but my brother doesn’t want to repeat his studies anymore. My half-year income is just enough to pay my brother’s tuition and living expenses for the first year, so I only stayed at home for two days when I went home during the summer vacation. I went back to Huizhou, and in order to ensure that I could go to university smoothly, I stayed in the factory to work overtime even during the Chinese New Year, because the overtime pay for the Spring Festival was still very considerable. Until the Chinese New Year, the factory found I came back to start the second semester of the third year of senior high school only after finding enough manpower. Although I said that the suspension of school was voluntary, but my parents still felt that they owed me a little, so I almost didn’t have to do anything in those six months, just concentrate on studying. So I did well in the college entrance examination that year, Ruxin guess which university I went to?"

Zhou Ruxin looked at the woman in front of her, with such a calm smile, those hardships in the past were only briefly mentioned by her in a few words, and suddenly she remembered Qingqing's first letter received back then, with such flying handwriting, Exaggeratedly accusing Zhou Ruxin of being cruel, she was willing to send back a wrongly delivered breakup letter to her. This is the Qingqing she knew.

That Qingqing who told her "let's work hard together" has really kept this promise firmly in mind and finally succeeded.

Maybe it was because Zhou Ruxin was silent for too long, or maybe it was because Zhou Ruxin's eyes were too warm. Lin Suqing's eyes, which were watching Zhou Ruxin with a smile, were a little erratic. Xin, you haven't guessed which university I went to?"

Zhou Ruxin thought about it seriously: "You said that Jieying came a few years earlier than you, but you are still in the same department, and you are so familiar with me, since you want me to guess, I guess, Jieying is you Senior Sister?"

Lin Suqing clapped her hands lightly: "Ah, Ruxin, you are really smart. Indeed, Jieying is my senior sister. We are from the same department. We met during a literature exchange activity in the department. But at the beginning Senior sister Jieying is from the Department of Flowers. I dare not get close to her, haha. However, she is from the same county after all, so we are relatively familiar, and she will occasionally talk about life in high school. So I really knew for a long time that she had a nerdy classmate like Ru Xin, who was so stubborn and cute. When she applied for the college entrance examination, all thirteen volunteers applied to normal colleges. Haha!"

Speaking of this incident back then, Zhou Ruxin herself felt that her heart was as hard as a rock back then.

She looked at Lin Suqing and smiled: "Now I still remember the unbelievable way our class teacher looked at my volunteer application form. I think I really wanted to be a good teacher with all my heart. In the end, the volunteer form As soon as I came out, everyone knew about it. Now when the students get together and talk about ideals, they don’t allow me to speak out, saying that I am the only one here who has truly realized my ideals, so I have no right to complain. Depressed! "

Lin Suqing also laughed when she heard this: "You are indeed the only one who has realized your ideal. Ruxin is a very good teacher. Well, it is now, and it was also in the past."

Zhou Ruxin blushed inexplicably when she praised her like this.

However, after such a conversation, Zhou Ruxin thought for a while, and understood what Su Qing said at the beginning.At the beginning, it was her good intentions to return a wrongly handed breakup token to the original owner, which ended Lin Suqing's puppy love that she shouldn't have started at the beginning, and because of her old-fashioned inspirational words, she got Suqing's agreement to work hard together. During the years of correspondence, the two of them have indeed made progress together.

Later, a few words from her let Lin Suqing know that everything is not hopeless, and all difficulties can be solved.No wonder, Suqing would say "benefit from Ruxin".

After a long talk, seeing that it was getting late, Lin Suqing went to settle the bill, left each other's mobile phone numbers, and then went back to their respective ways.

Before parting, Lin Suqing told Zhou Ruxin again and again: "You should always log on WeChat on your mobile phone, keep in touch, Ruxin."

While talking, the bus that Zhou Ruxin was waiting for arrived, Zhou Ruxin nodded in agreement with Lin Suqing's request, and prepared to get on the bus.

Lin Suqing suddenly approached and hugged Zhou Ruxin tightly: "Ruxin Ruxin, I miss you so much these years."

Then before Zhou Ruxin had any reaction, Lin Suqing ran away in a hurry: "Ruxin Ruxin, get in the car quickly, see you next time."

Zhou Ruxin got on the car in a daze, got off at the stop in a daze, and walked back to the rental house, was she sober after all, thinking of the conversation that night, she just felt emotional: the fate of life is really unspeakable .

However, at the end, Lin Suqing's hug and those words made Zhou Ruxin miss her inexplicably.
