Dreaming back to the 90s to help my dad catch a rival in love

The next morning, around five o'clock, Ning Xiaobei and the others woke up.

It wasn't that they were so self-conscious, it was because when the sun came out, the roosters in the mountains all crowed, and Fan Xia was stunned by the constant "woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo" sound.How many years have children living in urban areas not been treated this way? The last time Ning Xiaobei heard a rooster crow was when he lived in Jiandeli.

When the two of them finished washing and getting dressed and went downstairs, the three members of the Gu family sat in the main room and waited for them for a long time.It is said that Gu's father has already planted the ground once and watered all the vegetables, and Gu's mother has also prepared breakfast, just waiting for them to eat.

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry."

The two of them sat down while apologizing. Neither the Ning family nor the Zhao family had this rule of making the adults wait for the children to eat.

"It's okay, young people are sleepy. Your teacher also slept in during the two days when he just returned to the village."

Papa Gu smiled and motioned them to eat quickly.

The breakfast is very simple and refreshing. It is white porridge, flower rolls, salted duck eggs and fermented bean curd.Fan Xia drank three bowls of porridge in one go, and ate two rolls bigger than his fist, carbs mixed with carbs, feeling boundless happiness for a while.

"Let's go, I'll take you to play. Dalan Town is really fun, do you know Danshan Chishui? Where the gods ascended, there is the remains of the Supreme Lord."

After breakfast, Gu Kaige was ready to show his kindness as a landlord.He told his parents that he would eat out at noon and come back to eat better at night.Kill the big goose at home, kill the chicken, get two more fish, and cook some hard dishes.Mother Gu couldn't help but nodded.

"When we leave, remember to put 1000 yuan under the mattress..."

Ning Xiaobei turned around and said to Fan Xia.

Although Brother Kai and his family seem to be quite wealthy, they are all ordinary people in the mountains, and they are not interested in doing any kind of homestay or farmhouse at this time. After all, their income is limited... Besides, Brother Kai is still unemployed.

"Let's go to Persimmon Forest Village first, and have lunch there at noon."

Brother Kai is very interested, probably very few friends come to his hometown to play, it is completely different from the slightly decadent look last night, he almost waved a small flag in his hand.

Sure enough, there are families in Shilin Village who grow persimmons. Although it is already winter, the persimmons are out of market.However, there are still many small persimmons on the branch that have not been picked in time.

The small orange-red persimmons that have been frosted hang on the branches, like small lanterns, and people feel festive when they look at them.If the snow falls in the mountains, the persimmons will be covered with white snow, and with the stone walls and blue tiles of the surrounding ancient villages, it will look even more exquisite, like a crystal world.

They played in the village first, went to Mengxi Thatched Cottage to commemorate Shen Kuo, and then visited the Yubei Pavilion. They were used to seeing the white walls and black tiles in the Jiangnan plain area, especially the Suzhou area. The house, don't have some fun.

Siming Mountain is a famous Taoist mountain. It is said that the very unscrupulous Lu Dongbin in the Eight Immortals appeared here twice.

One time I wanted to build a bridge between two mountains, but I ended up building two bridge piers, a half-drawn project, and finally a "fairy stacking rocks" scenic spot.

Once again, Lu Dongbin lived in a local cave called "Yingming Cave", where he used mountain springs to heal people and benefit the village, leaving behind the legend that the spring water in this cave can cure diseases.

This legend itself is unremarkable, just like almost half of the famous snacks in the south of the Yangtze River claim that their spokesperson is Emperor Qianlong who went to the south of the Yangtze River seven times.

The wonderful thing is the origin of this "Eagle Crying Cave" - ​​it is said that a condor from the heaven passed here after descending from the earth, and seeing the beautiful scenery, he couldn't help but admire it, but his jaw was dislocated due to excitement, and he couldn't return to the fairy world. I had to make a scenic spot here.

Ning Xiaobei almost couldn't hold his chin when he heard this legend, and deeply felt that the ancestors of Yuyao people might have a humorous gene.He has been to so many scenic spots and heard so many legends, and it is the first time he knows that "near the gods" is actually interpreted as "increasing the popularity of my hometown by slandering the gods".

After climbing mountains and wading all morning, the carbohydrates in the morning have already been digested.Brother Kai took them into a small restaurant in the village in time, and asked for a box on the second floor, and then the three big men began to eat in a hurry.

Although the farm food is simple, its advantage is that the ingredients are fresh and organic. The dishes are freshly pulled out, and the fish are freshly caught. The locals use tea oil for cooking, so it is very fragrant. Fan Xiada eats a meal Excited.

After eating, drinking the famous local tea "Mingzhou tea" brought by the waiter, Ning Xiaobei looked out the window, the forest was completely dyed, the stream outside the village was gurgling, flowing through the reddish stone slabs, and falling into a green pool Some of them understand why it is called "Danshan Chishui".

"Boss, this place is really nice. Let's bring Uncle and Uncle Ning next time."

Fan Xia poked his head out of the window and took a deep breath.The air in the country is so sweet, and although it is colder, it also makes people feel more clear-headed.The mountains and rivers here are delicious, and it is really a good place for retirement.

"So the teacher is planning to retire here and not leave?"

Ning Xiaobei turned the glass in his hand, watched the green tea leaves in the cup sink and float, and began to ask tentatively.

"Leave after a year, you can't stay... stay is forced to get married."

After eating, Gu Kaige habitually took out a pack of cigarettes in his jacket pocket, only to remember the incident of the lighter falling from the building last night.

He resentfully stuffed the cigarette back and took a sip of tea.

"Just this month, my mother doesn't know how many times she forced me. You don't know, by the end of the year, the children who go to work in nearby Hangzhou, Ningbo, and Shanghai will all come back. Many of them come back once a year just for a blind date. I am If I can't stand these, I don't want to be the second 'him'."

Who "he" is is self-evident.

As the cold wind blew, Ning Xiaobei couldn't help sneezing, Fan Xia hurriedly closed the window, walked behind him, pulled up the coat that was originally on the back of the chair, and put it on him.Considerate and caring.

"It's really 'love'..."

Gu Kaige said enviously.

"Where's Mr. Peng? Boss Wen said he left with you, so I didn't see him. Did you go to other villages to sketch?"

Ning Xiaobei picked up his collar, took Fan Xia's hand without hesitation, and looked at Gu Kaige calmly—there were very few opportunities for them to show their relationship openly in front of others, and he was willing to hold on to everything Limited opportunity to prove to Fan Xia that he loves him.

After the incident last night, Ning Xiaobei finally understood how fragile and sensitive Fan Xia was under his seemingly carefree appearance.

He needs a sense of security, so he will give him a sense of security-this is the heart of an older lover.

Sure enough, Fan Xia liked Ning Xiaobei's tricks very much. Although he didn't say anything, the upward arc of the corner of his mouth had completely betrayed him.If he didn't mind that there might still be a waiter standing at the door, he would have laughed out loud.

"Hey, my teeth... Do you really want to show your affection in front of someone who just lost love?"

Gu Kaige said while holding his chin in a fake manner.

"Ah? You broke up with Mr. Peng? Didn't the old goblin say that you two had such a good relationship that you almost died together?"

Fan Xia was taken aback, he turned his head again, looked at Ning Xiaobei's calm expression, and suddenly felt wronged, "Boss, you already knew, why didn't you tell me."

Ning Xiaobei, why are you always like this, knowing everything but not telling the truth.

"I just felt that what the boss said was a loophole, so I found it later."

Ning Xiaobei stroked the dog's head to show comfort.

"If I'm not wrong, the person who reported you is none other than Mr. Peng."

He turned sideways, speaking an unbelievable inference in an extremely flat tone.It's like saying: If I guessed correctly, the moon is so bright tonight, so tomorrow must be a good weather.

Gu Kaige's expression was stunned at first, the two thick eyebrows moved slightly closer to the middle, the single eyelids were still charming, the corners of the eyes that looked like a Korean male star moved down a bit, but the corners of the thin mouth were hooked upwards. Standing up, showing an embarrassing expression of whether to cry or not, to laugh or not.

"Ning Xiaobei, Ning Xiaobei..."

Gu Kaige probably felt that his expression was too ugly, so he simply covered it with his palm.

"What do you want me to say about you?"

He just covered his face with one hand and remained silent for a long time.After so long that Fan Xia's heart began to beat, he finally let go of his arms.

"That's right, he reported me."

"Besides, I've known for a long time... When he was developing photos in the art room, he left for a while. Didn't I also live in the art room during the isolation period, and the key never returned to the security room. I went in Looking for him, so... everything was seen."

Gu Kaige's eyes were red, he stood up, picked up the down jacket that was draped over the back of the chair, and dusted off the non-existent dust on it.

"Let's go, don't talk while walking. The room is too suffocating."

Although the scenery in the mountains is beautiful, there are not many tourists at this time.This is not a famous scenic spot like the West Lake in Hangzhou and the former residence of Lu Xun in Shaoxing. It is basically still in the stage of development.Only during the May [-] golden holiday, guests from Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai will come to visit.Because it is primitive, it does not have a wild taste.

Gu Kaige took them to Tianjiping and Laojunshi, the legendary ruins of immortals.

In this cold and lonely deep winter, the immortals can't receive any incense, and the sky is as lonely as the world.

They leaned against the railing and ate sweet potato dates, which were said to be local specialties. They looked like sweet potatoes, but they had the sweetness of Shandong dates and a scent of chestnuts. They tasted sweet in winter.Fan Xia just bought five catties at once, put them in the travel bag behind him, and planned to take them back to Shanghai to share with his classmates.

"There's a boss who wants to hire|raise him. Oh, I was wrong, it's 'training'."

Brother Kai was chewing sweet potatoes and jujubes, his legs dangling restlessly while sitting by the pool.Although the depth of this pool is only more than one meter by visual inspection, it is enough to drink a pot in winter.

"One month before the SARS epidemic, he just participated in a training program for young artists, and his work won an award... I don't understand it, anyway, it's something he was tinkering with in the art room all day long. It was seen by a Hong Kong boss. After I got up, I treated him to a meal and didn’t come back that night.”

Ning Xiaobei leaned his back on Fan Xia's shoulder, and the big man just used it to block the wind.

"We were at our best at that time, and I didn't know anything about it. I heard that he had won an award, so I specially asked him to invite those friends from the Academy of Fine Arts and those who played well to my 'big villa' Eat hot pot to celebrate. That’s when Lao Wen and I met.”

Having said that, Gu Kaige showed an indescribable expression.

"Aren't they all talking about art? Old Wenming knows about my relationship with Yueyue, so he still wants to seduce me."

Ning Xiaobei thought that this had nothing to do with art, it was simply that the old goblin had no morals, art students shouldn't be able to take the blame.

"Later, he went out with the boss a few times... It is said that he went to spend the weekend in his small villa by the West Lake. The villa is filled with all kinds of antiques and famous paintings collected by the boss. Soaking in it is better than sleeping in an art gallery. The person is light, floating, and psychedelic... I just think that he is going around the exhibition and sketching as usual."

Fan Xia put his hands on Ning Xiaobei's shoulders, the sun was setting directly in front of him, warming his chest, but the shady place behind him was blown cold by the wind.There is a taste of "the chest is warmed by the fire, and the back is cold by the wind".

Brother Kai was even more miserable. He wasn't "cold in the back", but was stabbed in the back, Fan Xia thought.

"Before the quarantine, he wanted to break up, but the school was closed before he mentioned it. He couldn't get out, and the big boss couldn't come here for him. I couldn't go back to my rental house, and he was also kicked out The dormitory, so the two of us nested together again."

Kai Ge pulled his neckline, and when he said this, his face was full of aftertaste.

"During those two weeks or so, despair was real despair, and happiness was real happiness. After dealing with you little devils during the day, at night, when there were no classes, I would hang around all day long. The more desperate, the more guilty I would hug you Tighter..."

Seeing that the topic was going to be restricted, Brother Kai hurriedly stopped.

"Anyway, I also admire his sincerity. I don't know why he took those photos. He knew that I would not easily agree to break up, so he wanted to use those photos to tease me. He doesn't plan to be a teacher in the future He is not afraid of being fired, disqualified as a teacher, so every photo has his face."

Ning Xiaobei and Fan Xia are not very artistic people. For them, art class and music class are supplementary sleep class, free activity class, and extracurricular book extensive reading class, so there is not much overlap with the teacher.

Ning Xiaobei's impression of Peng Yue is that white face that looks like a walking vampire, the corners of the eyes that grow into the temples and the corners of the mouth are always drooping, an expression that the whole world has failed him.Oh, and that little mole of tears under the right eye at that moment.It was just such a small mole that made his not-so-good-looking facial features all of a sudden become coquettish, and even that mocking smile became flexible and lively.

He had never seen the contents of the photos that were thrown into the principal's mailbox. He thought that when the principal saw that face and the bodies of the two men embracing each other, he would probably have a heart attack.

How cruel, he thought.

A way to break up by killing one thousand enemies and harming oneself by eight hundred.

"Then why did he hold back until the new semester started in September before reporting you. As soon as the quarantine is lifted, he can go to the boss in Hong Kong."

Fan Xia asked.

"People's hearts are fleshy. I treat him so well, and he can't feel it... Well, I admit it, because the Hong Kong boss was also quarantined when he went back there, and the epidemic there was much more serious than ours. , It took almost June to calm down, and the boss didn't return to Shanghai until July, when the school was already on summer vacation."

As Gu Kaige said, he slapped himself.

"Tell you to be sentimental."

"So they seamlessly connected as soon as school started in September, and reported you non-stop?"

Ning Xiaobei didn't even know what expression to put on to answer the conversation.

"Yes, non-stop. Because in November, the boss's art foundation will decide on the list of young artists to be funded next year. If he doesn't hurry up and dump me, how can he "engage in art" with peace of mind?"

Gu Kaige smiled wryly.

"Although the boss has taken care of seven or eight boys and girls, Chinese and foreign, white, yellow, and all kinds of colors, he requires his little lover to ensure absolute 'loyalty' and integrity when getting along with him. 'Clean', if he doesn't leave me alone, he won't be on the big list."

Fan Xia felt nauseated.The environment where he and Ning Xiaobei grew up was too clean, and the most irritating thing they had ever experienced was the scramble in the factory. They didn't know that young people's appearance and future could be priced, and that price was nothing more than A rich man's meal is just a few bags.

"Isn't it okay to break up peacefully? It's so tragic."

Ning Xiaobei sighed, "You let go earlier..."

"Fan Xia, if Ning Xiaobei says he wants to break up with you now, will you live in peace?"

Gu Kaige didn't answer Ning Xiaobei directly, but asked Fan Xia instead.

Fan Xia felt a sharp knife piercing his heart with a cold light, and he stopped breathing for a moment.

"no way……"

he gritted his teeth.

"That's it."

Gu Kaige lowered his head, "So if he doesn't force me to leave school and Shanghai, it is impossible for him to get rid of me so easily."

There was bursts of music from the Taoist temple not far away. It was the Taoist priests playing the water and land dojo. The three of them didn't understand the Taoist rituals, and they only felt that they were listening to fairy music and temporarily enlightened.

Especially after hearing so much nonsense.

"At that time, I really thought that the two of us were being framed. I foolishly comforted him and said that at worst, the public school would not last, so I would go to a private school and go to a cram school. Anyway, he would not starve to death. Later, when he contacted Lao Wen to find a place to live, and wanted to jump off a building for me, I was so touched that I was dying. I felt that even if I was abandoned by the whole world, as long as I had him by my side, I would not be afraid of anything, and I could do nothing... "

On the way back, Ning Xiaobei and Fan Xia walked behind Gu Kaige, watching the orange sunset in the mountains fall on the lonely man's shoulders, they couldn't find words to comfort him.

About a mile away from the village, Bush, who was squatting far away by the side of the road, saw them, and rushed over happily, at Kai Ge, Fan Xia and Ning Xiaobei at the same time. And loyal.It seems that it is Gu Kaige's biggest achievement in Shanghai for four or five years.

"Later, Lao Wen couldn't stand it and told me that it was all for breaking up with me. Of course, there is also guilt, and it is true that he wants to jump off a building when he is drunk... Forget it, he is like this, what else can I do What? I can’t block his future, let alone let him die, can I?”

When they reached the entrance of the village, all three of them closed their mouths at the same time.

"Stay for two more days, just stay with me. It's been a long time since I said so much from my heart. If I don't say anything else, I'm going to suffocate to death and go crazy."

Kai turned around and smiled at them.

Although he still had the same expression, Ning Xiaobei felt that Gu Kaige in front of him seemed to be ten years older, and even the thin smile lines at the corners of his eyes had turned into real wrinkles.

The author has something to say:

Comrades, we are about to enter the countdown to the end
