Chapter 25 String

Pei Yanya hated Gu Yu's mother all her life, but every time she mentioned her alone, there was no lack of compliments.Before the incident between "that woman" and Guan Yan happened, they had worked together, and it was a pleasant cooperation.

When she is in a good mood, she doesn't mind expressing her appreciation to "that woman", and the most frequently used word is "amazing".

The depth of my childhood influence came to light when I had to meet "that woman" in person.Thinking of meeting, still in the current capacity, I can't get rid of the faint fear and impulse to shrink back.

I know that no matter what the situation is, I have enough ability to make the scene not embarrassing, but this does not prevent the mood from lingering.

When Gu Yu patted my shoulder and told me that it was here, I decided to block it.

Surprisingly, they still live in the school's staff dormitory.

That was the house that Guan Yan was allocated when he was young, and I lived in it too, but the specific memory is very vague.Returning to this place again, two points are familiar and eight points are unfamiliar. It takes a moment to identify the path and building.

"Brother Xu." After getting out of the car, Gu Yu stopped me, I looked over, he smiled brightly, stuck out the tip of his tongue, and said, "My mother is very fierce, don't be polite to her, be more fierce."

He is soothing my emotions, I am very useful, my heart is warm, I nodded and said with a smile: "Then you will be fierce first, I will follow you."

He jumped up and held me: "You know, what I like the most is your attitude. You seem to be calm about everything, and you can act ordinary even when you are nervous, which makes people especially want to treat you Take it apart and see it clean, and see the scene where you lost control."

"Haven't you seen me lose control?" I really don't know, that's how I look in his eyes.

"No." After a pause of two seconds, he said again, "Maybe I've seen it before. When you confessed your love, when you slept with me for the first time, you should be out of control. But it can't be seen on the surface. You have to get close to you and mess up Only you can see clearly."

Likes and dislikes.He picked the corners of his slender eyes, and the waves in his eyes were charming, very good-looking.

I'm definitely less nervous.

In fact, I no longer remember Gu Jia's appearance.When she stood in front of me, what I saw was a completely unfamiliar old lady. She was well maintained, her skin was still delicate and fair, her figure was tall and healthy, and her temperament was elegant and fresh.

If Pei Yanya lived to this day, she should be such a beautiful little old lady.

I wonder.

Then, he met the cold eyes of this little old lady.As Gu Yu said, she is very fierce, looking me up and down without any courtesy.At the end, he snorted softly, cast his eyes on Gu Yu, and spoke sharply.

"Judging people by their appearance, and acting on their appearance."

After hearing this, Gu Yu raised the corners of his mouth, and his smile was tinged with a sense of naughtiness for no reason.He didn't answer, turned around and walked towards the kitchen: "Uncle Guan, what's for dinner?"

Guan Yan immediately came out of the kitchen, smiling all over his face, holding a spatula in one hand, and pulled Gu Jia with the other: "Come, come, you're the one who cooks shredded pork with Beijing sauce better, you take the spoon."

Gu Yu leaned against the kitchen door, looking at them playfully.

Gu Jia was indifferent to Guan Yan's deliberate reconciliation, and pushed his spatula away: "You do the other things first, let me wait for the shredded pork." Then, as a habit, she straightened her cuffs and looked at me , "Come with me."

"Xiaojia..." Guan Yan wanted to hold her back, but it was in vain.

She carried it away towards the sun, without looking back, she just said, "I can't eat your son."

Flowers were planted on the balcony, also roses and roses.Even the dead branches in winter, it can be seen that they are much better cared for than those of Gu Yu.Pei Yanya said that only gentle people can plant flowers and plants well.

"Guan Zixu, since you dare to come to the door, I'll get right to the point." She sat on a small chair and looked up at me.

It's been a long time since anyone called me Guan Zixu, it sounds a bit strange.I didn't make a sound, just nodded.

"I've inquired clearly with Xu Ran about your matters. I want to ask you, what are your intentions for Gu Yu?" She really got straight to the point, her eyes and tone were too direct, which made me want to feel sorry for the doubts and words in this sentence. It is not enough to find some reasons to offend.

But I didn't have any suitable answer to this, so I kept silent.

She quickly spoke again, and said: "Don't think I'm being rude, I don't know what Gu Yu thinks about your intentions, but I don't believe that you can still be pure in your heart when you know who he is. Well, there aren’t many people in that kind of place, right? Why is it such a coincidence, you are?”

I couldn't help laughing out loud, a little emotional: "Judging people by their appearance, and acting on their appearance."

She pursed her lips, without any smile, and said, "Don't talk about other things, it's useless to play tricks. Can you assure me that you never have ulterior motives for Gu Yu?"

The word "no" came to his lips together with his spirit, but he didn't rush out.

I know it's best to tell the truth at this moment - there was, and now there isn't.But I couldn't say it, the fact of "I have done it" made me feel stuck in my throat, and I couldn't admit it simply, so I had to keep silent.

After a while, she pinched the cuff again, and the corner of her mouth curved into a smile: "It doesn't matter how you answer me, you can ask yourself. There is one more question, do you know Gu Yu?"

This is really a familiar question. People always ask me, do you know Gu Yu?

"I have my understanding," I replied.

"Really? That's the best." Her smile widened, and her eyes were meaningful, "One thing is another thing. I used to feel sorry for Sister Pei and you. It was my fault. How can you beg for this? I accept all the debts. You and Gu Yu are another matter. I hope you have a clear conscience on this matter."

I looked back at her: "I can do it."

He held his breath in his heart, and wanted to listen to Gu Yu's suggestion, to be more aggressive, but it was not so easy to operate.

In the end, under the calmness of bluff.

"Okay, it's your own business, I don't want to say more." After a while, she stood up, her eyes were much closer to me, showing a trace of sincerity inexplicably.

"To be honest, I don't agree with Gu Yu being with you. But my son, I know that even if you are together, you can't go far together, so I won't bother breaking you up. Guan Zixu, please ask yourself .”

This was different from what I had imagined. Instead of attacking me, she showed me seemingly sincere sympathy.

This feeling is really awkward, like...like being despised.She didn't even bother to make a move, just waiting for me to reap the consequences.

If she talked to me about this scene with the intention of attacking her heart, then she did it.This conversation may seem ordinary, but it actually hit my point.Beneath the indifferent and calm surface, my heart was full of uneasiness, doubts, and resentment that could not find a way out.

She had already wandered back.

What Pei Yanya said is true, she is very powerful.

After the tense "interrogation" session, Gu Jia became a kind elder.She and Guan Yan cook together, and they work together to make a whole table of dishes.

When dinner was served later, she was amiable and pointed to the dishes on the table.

It is like honey, shredded pork with Beijing sauce, Sixi meatballs, and Fushou pork. These are all dishes that I have restored according to Pei Yanya's habits in order to evoke Gu Yu's memory.

"It's home-cooked food, but it's Beijing style. I wonder if you're still used to it?" She smiled brightly, but I felt uncomfortable all over, as if I had been splashed with something.

"Brother Xu, eat some of my grilled chicken wings, and I'll take you to make skewers later." Gu Yu pointed to the plate in front of me.

It was a plate of carelessly air-fried chicken wings, overtimed and charred, but comforting more than anything else.

Less than 10 minutes after the meal, Gu Yu pulled me off the table and walked away.

On a night in Beijing in January, it was chilly.

He held my hand, swaggered into the wind, turned the corner, entered the alley, and found a small shop.The shop didn't even have a name, so it hung a Chinese character "string" made up of small lights at the door.

Near the door is a large refrigerator full of vegetables.The large skewers of mutton occupy the largest area and are the most eye-catching.Gu Yu grabbed a handful and put them in the basket, then asked me what to eat with his eyes, and finally filled the basket together.

"There are so many, Xiao Yu, don't waste them." The shopkeeper frowned and stared at Gu Yu.

Gu Yu pointed at me: "He is very good at eating, he can eat fifty oysters and a turkey in one sitting!"

I:"……"

The shop owner looked at me suspiciously, still frowning, and said seriously: "Anyway, if you can't finish eating, I'll charge you double and won't pack it for you."

"Okay, okay." He took out his wallet, grabbed some money and put them on the table, and ran back.

The owner took all the orders and went in to grill the skewers.

"Why doesn't he let you buy more and pack?" I asked.

"When I was young, I, Uncle Guan, and your dad often gave me a lot of pocket money in order to buy me off. I always came here to buy something to eat. One time I bought too much and packed it up. When I got home, my mom found out and packed it I even threw away all the packed things. Later, the boss found his own goods in the trash can. After that, he always felt that I was dishonest and refused to pack them for me.”

He said with a look of anger: "On that one time, he remembered it until now!"

The story is a little childlike and cute.Probably because the atmosphere was good, my heart felt soft when I heard it: "Then you didn't explain?"

"I explained, it's useless." He picked up two bottles of soda from the drink box on the floor, pried off the lid, and handed me a bottle, "There are all kinds of people in the world, and some people's brain circuits are completely different from ours. It's different, don't try to understand or persuade at this time, just follow the easiest way."

It made sense, and I couldn't help nodding seriously.

After 10 minutes, the skewers came up one by one.We are eating here, and the owner is sitting at another table, turning on the video to watch variety shows.I recognized him right from the beginning, he was watching that program on Gu Yu.

I was a little curious: "Does he know you are on that show?"

"I know." Gu Yu approached me and lowered his voice, "He's used to it. He watches all my performances and laughs at me for not being popular."

"Where did I laugh at you, I'll just talk about it!" As soon as he finished speaking, the shopkeeper retorted, and stopped the video, his eyes widening.

Gu Yu looked helpless, turned around and waved his hands: "You watch your show, don't eavesdrop on the guests chatting."

The store owner had no expression on his dull and serious face, and continued to watch the video as he said.Gu Yu greeted me and said coquettishly, "We eat ours, leave him alone."This scene is so ordinary, but I have a feeling.

——No matter how long it takes, I will always remember this scene.

On a cold night, the string of shops in the alley, the sound of the shopkeeper playing a video, and Gu Yu who descended from the gods to become human.
