pen pal

57. The next day, the two of them slept until nearly ten o'clock before getting up. After asking the boss to make two delicious bowls of noodles, they packed up their luggage, paid the bill and prepared to go home.

Mingjing Villa is really easy to live in, the air is good, the main thing is that it is quiet enough, and the only neighbor’s house is often empty, so there is such a family hotel around, Zhou Ruxin likes this place very much, and asked the boss before leaving Asked for a business card, turned around and said to Su Qing: "I heard from the old man in my family that before, if you come to Hengshan to pay respects, it is best to come for three consecutive years to show your sincerity. Suqing, come again next year, we will still live Here."

Lin Suqing naturally agreed: "It's fine if you like it."

After all, after climbing the mountain all day, even after a good night's sleep, they would still feel a little tired, so on the high-speed train back, the two of them had another good night's sleep.

After returning, there were still a few days left for the National Day holiday. Lin Suqing originally wanted to accompany Zhou Ruxin to go for a walk around, but when she thought about Ruxin's motion sickness, she felt that it would be hard to go anywhere. In the end, the two simply stayed at home and played games. Read books, listen to music, um, of course, and do things that we both like to do, and the holidays passed like that.

Time passed as usual.

Soon it will be the end of October, and the annual school sports meeting of Ruxin School is coming. This year, on a whim, the leaders set up not only competitions for students, but also two competitions for teachers, one for two people. Three legs, one is a 50-meter head-on relay.

The most peculiar thing is that for every teacher who signs up for the two-person three-legged competition, the other teammate is not a colleague from the school, but has to find a relative or friend outside the school to be a partner.

That day, in the school group, as soon as the chairman of the trade union announced the news, the teachers broke out in the group, clamoring for registration, most of them said that they wanted their husbands to show their affection.And some older teachers laughed and asked those young teachers to sign up, mainly to ask them to bring their future spouse.Of course, some seniors also took the opportunity to get some unmarried teachers in the school together. Among them, Zhou Ruxin, an outstanding unmarried young man in the eyes of everyone, was naturally the key object of the big guys' booing.

Thanks to Zhou Ruxin's unwavering attitude, she let everyone in the group make fun of her, and she prepared her lessons and corrected her homework by herself.A biology teacher in the same office probably was idle, so he had to ask the union leader to persuade Zhou Ruxin to sign up for the class laughing: "Xiao Zhou has been in our school for almost ten years, and I have never heard of anyone who has seen her before. With such a great opportunity, I have to bring it out for everyone to see? If there is really no such one, then the unmarried handsome guys in our school will work hard."

The leader of the trade union is an art teacher in his 40s. His surname is Li, and he is enthusiastic. He is not usually a troublesome person, but under the current atmosphere, he is also actively responding to the call of the school's trade union, so he really came here with a smile on his face. , ready to tell Zhou Ruxin about signing up for the two-legged three-legged event.

Zhou Ruxin was really embarrassed to avoid it now, thinking in her heart, where can I find "that person" to show you, but seeing the smiling face of the leader of the trade union, she was too embarrassed to say no, Think for a moment: "Well, Mr. Li, as long as they are relatives and friends at home, it can be it?"

"Of course." Teacher Li replied.

"Then I'll discuss it with my family and give you an answer tomorrow, okay?" Zhou Ruxin thought about going home and asking Su Qing for her opinion.

After hearing this, Teacher Li left satisfied. The biology teacher who heard these words smiled happily: "Xiao Zhou, Xiao Zhou, you may have forgotten something. I will remind you on WeChat at night."

Well, as long as you are happy, Zhou Ruxin smiled helplessly and continued to get busy.

When I got home at night and packed up and rested on the sofa, Zhou Ruxin told Lin Suqing about this matter: "Suqing, would you like to participate?"

Lin Suqing pondered for a moment: "From an emotional point of view, I am naturally eager to accompany you to participate, but from a rational point of view, it is not a very wise decision for me to accompany you to participate. When people ask who I am, how do you answer it?" Woolen cloth?"

Zhou Ruxin thought: "That's right. If I tell people that you are my classmate, I always feel that I have wronged Suqing, but if I say that you are my sister, at least some colleagues know that I am the only daughter in my family. Tomorrow I will go talk to Li The teacher told me not to participate in the competition."

Lin Suqing thought about it: "This kind of activity is clearly aimed at improving the cohesion among colleagues. If you don't actively respond to it, it will never be good. Otherwise, you can say that I am your cousin. It is normal for cousins ​​to get closer , um, it’s just that Ru Xin remembers to remind Shen Yu not to slip up.”

Zhou Ruxin is not ignorant of these ways of the world, and she also knows that Suqing is thinking for herself: "Well, it's just that Suqing has always been wronged."

Lin Suqing smiled, leaned over and hugged her: "Fool, we just need to know each other, why do we have to tell the world?"

Seeing that Zhou Ruxin was still a little gloomy, she put her head close to Zhou Ruxin's ear, and gently bit her earlobe: "If Ruxin feels that you have wronged me, then let me bully you more?"

Zhou Ruxin's earlobes were already very sensitive, and after being bitten by her like this, they immediately softened a little, and then she just made her whole body tingle when she teased her in the ear, so she agreed unconsciously, "Okay."

As a result, the two-person three-legged competition has not yet been signed up. Zhou Ruxin and Lin Suqing first practiced the "two-person four-legged" in the evening. Cough, this posture is all you can imagine.

On the day of the school sports meeting, Lin Suqing and Zhou Ruxin, who had asked He Jieying for leave in advance, cooperated tacitly and successfully won the three-legged champion of the teacher group.And those female teachers who called their husbands to cooperate with the competition, because of the imbalance in height and strength of the couple, several couples walked and fell in the middle of the track, causing the children in the stands to roll with joy. , the rest of the teachers who were watching the game were laughing while not forgetting to take pictures of the scene in time to send a circle of friends or something. As a result, half an hour after the game ended, the school group was thrown by various teachers. The photo of the fallen on the ground swiped the screen.Everyone laughed and commented on whose "falling posture" was the most beautiful, and commented like Zhuge Liang after the fact: "Xiao Zhou is still the smartest. He called her cousin over. The two are balanced in height and strength, and they cooperate very tacitly."

For this comment, many teachers praised it, but Shen Yu privately sent a thief expression to Zhou Ruxin: "Ruxin Ruxin, ask Suqing, does this count as a visit to see her family?" ? Are you not scared?"

Zhou Ruxin replied: "I was not frightened by others, but by you, Ayu."

Next came the 50-meter head-on relay. Zhou Ruxin was going to represent the first-level junior team. She asked Lin Suqing if she wanted to go first, but Suqing refused, "I want to cheer you on." So I took my backpack to Suqing, and went to warm up with several other teachers.

It is rare for the children to see their teachers participate in such a competition. The two-legged three-legged competition just now has caused quite a stir. Now it is even more exciting to see the teachers standing one by one to the starting line of the relay race, regardless of their original classes. No matter where the base camp is, they all got into the railing outside the track, stood up like sparrows, each cheering for their teachers.

Zhou Ruxin looked at Lin Suqing who was not far away, and saw that she was carrying her bag, holding a mobile phone in one hand, ready to take pictures at any time, and made a very "two" victory gesture with the other hand, poof, this is still Before starting to run, Zhou Ruxin felt that she was going to laugh out loud.

As the starting gun was fired, all the teachers, no matter how many models they had in their daily lives, all spread their feet and went forward desperately. The children watching the battle even shouted amazingly, "Come on, come on, no matter who the teacher in the class is, come on!" just fine.

People's hearing is really strange, Zhou Ruxin could still clearly hear Lin Suqing's cheering voice amidst the noisy voices: "Ruxin, come on, Ruxin is the best."

In the end, the first-level group was honored to win No.1, um, counting backwards.

After the noisy day of the school sports meeting, the teachers and students excitedly talked about the interesting things of the day and went home.

The prizes prepared by the union for the teachers are the same, even for the champion, it is the same as all the contestants, two towels and a bottle of shampoo.

After washing and tidying up at night, Lin Suqing took the two towels out, and said that she was going to the aunt in the community who embroidered the names of the children in the nursery, and embroidered "Ru Xin" and "Su Qing" on the two towels, Zhou Ruxin said with a smile : "Do you use the one embroidered with Ru Xin, and I use the one embroidered with Su Qing?"

Lin Suqing replied: "That is natural. You are mine and I am yours."

Zhou Ruxin thought of Suqing's good "two" victory gesture today, and always felt that Suqing had lost her personality recently: "Suqing, Suqing, I heard people say that she was pregnant for three years and was stupid when she came to you. Have you been in love for three years?"

Lin Suqing smiled and said: "I've been pregnant for three years now, look, Ruxin has already been engraved in my body and mind."

Well, you must never compare your love with those who are creative in advertising, Zhou Ru thought to herself.

A few days later, it was Lin Suqing's elder brother's birthday. The relationship between Lin Suqing and her elder brother has always been good.Lin Suqing's elder brother is Lin Qisheng, and he is also a very honest person, so he has always felt guilty about the fact that his parents chose to go to college by themselves and let Suqing go out to work. Compatriots, what is in the past is in the past, not to mention that they were just children back then, and everything was decided by their parents, so Lin Suqing never blamed her brother.And as she got older, Su Qing became more and more aware of the helplessness and worry of her parents back then. There might have been some resentment back then, but they all disappeared with the passage of time.

Early in the morning of Lin Qisheng's birthday, Lin Suqing gave her brother a birthday red envelope, and after returning home from get off work, she called her brother to express her birthday wishes.

At the beginning, it was just the usual greetings and blessings. After a few words, the delicate Lin Suqing found that her brother was not in a good mood, so she asked, "Brother, are you unhappy today? What happened?"

Lin Qisheng refused to say it at first, only said that it was all right, Lin Suqing didn't force him, but just sighed softly: "Brother, I am your sister from the same family, flesh and blood, broken bones and flesh."

Lin Qisheng was silent for a while, and finally sighed: "Suqing, you are always so considerate. Whether it was back then or now, I always feel that you are the elder sister. I am really ashamed to be an elder brother. In fact, it is not a big deal, just Today your sister-in-law took the children back to her natal house..."

Lin Suqing immediately understood Lin Qisheng's sadness, and thought for a while: "Did my sister-in-law quarrel with my mother again during dinner at home?"

Lin Qisheng said "yes": "Mom saw my birthday, so she made a table of delicious food and asked our family to eat. Originally, we all ate and talked together, but I also told my mother to close it early in the morning." When I got your red envelope, my parents asked me to tell you that you have to take good care of yourself when you are alone in other places. Later, when I talked about it, I just happened to talk about our unit's evaluation of advanced things. Our department meant to evaluate me, even votes All filled out. Before leaving work, the old leader who promoted me came to talk to me. He said that there is an old comrade in our department who is about to retire. He has some distant relatives with him. It was rated as excellent, so the old leader wanted me to give up this spot to that old comrade."

Lin Suqing heard this, and asked, "How does that person who is about to retire usually work?"

Lin Qisheng replied: "It's quite satisfactory, there is nothing wrong with it."

Lin Suqing said: "Since this is the case, then it's okay for you to let him go. Originally, you were promoted because of that old leader. You must never forget your roots."

Lin Qisheng said: "Yes, so I agreed, and my parents thought I was doing the right thing. But your sister-in-law disagrees, she thinks that since I deserve it, and the old leader is about to retire, I don't have to Give him this face. As soon as Mom heard what she said, she said that she was too snobby, and she lost her temper. Before finishing the meal, she took the two children back to her mother's house, alas. "

Lin Suqing thought to herself: "Sister-in-law is snobbish, and her whole family is snobby, brother, do you know?" Thinking this way in her heart, she had to comfort her brother: "I guess she is also angry, brother, don't be unhappy Well, it's my birthday, and I'll have a good chat with my parents, and my sister-in-law will come back after two days when her anger subsides."

Lin Qisheng sighed: "Mom is also angry, Su Qing, you will call to coax her later. I have to go coax your sister-in-law, don't tell mom, if she knows I will coax her Your sister-in-law is probably even angrier."

Lin Suqing promised to call her mother later, but before hanging up the phone, she asked, "Brother, do you feel happy in your current life?"

Lin Qisheng was silent for a long time before replying: "Suqing, there is no chance to start over in life. I heard from my mother that you met the person you want to be with. I want to tell you that you don't have to care about his family background. , the only important thing is that he loves you enough to love you."

Su Qing said "hmm": "Understood, brother, I also only wish you happiness."

Afterwards, Lin Suqing called her mother. As expected, Lin's mother complained about her daughter-in-law's bad behavior, especially today, Suqing listened quietly, unable to bear to make a statement One fact is that this "bad" daughter-in-law was carefully selected by you, mother.

After venting in front of her daughter, Mother Lin felt much better, so she told Su Qing to take good care of herself, and finally asked: "Su Qing, it's going to be another day, do you want to clean up the things in your room for you?" ?”

Lin Suqing thought for a while: "Mom, it's still early before Chinese New Year."

Mother Lin said: "Hey, didn't I remind you to remember to bring people home for the New Year."

Su Qing smiled: "Mom, other parents are reluctant to let their daughter leave, but you wish I could go out earlier."

Mother Lin sighed: "I'm not willing to let you go out earlier. It's because your brother is so useless at home and wants to check on you. My good daughter, I can no longer go to other people's homes to be wronged."

Alright, alright, Lin Suqing stopped quickly, so as not to have to listen to her mother's accusations again.

Before going to bed, Lin Suqing hugged Zhou Ruxin and kissed her: "Ruxin Ruxin, if the two of us cook soy sauce chicken, even if you only serve soy sauce and I serve chicken, I will definitely hold you in my heart .”

Zhou Ruxin was dumbfounded when she heard that, what about soy sauce and what about chicken, but, um, Su Qing really held herself in her heart and hurt.

What does happiness look like?

Happiness, probably, is being able to lie in Suqing's arms every day and have a good dream until dawn.

There is no manuscript saver, so it is very hard work to have a chapter every day.
