The Pentium Era - South to North

Tan Shuzhen moved to Mishi River, and Liu Ligan still lived upstairs in the dynamic zone. After Tan Shuzhen moved, Mrs. Tan started a party at home and invited Zhang Chen and Xiao Zhao's parents to dinner. Zhang Chen and Xiao Zhao also went Well, during this meal, we talked about returning to my grandparents’ house in the south.

Adults all take this for granted. Emotionally, Zhang Chen’s parents are very reluctant to let go. For so many years, they have always treated Xiangnan as their granddaughter. When they first heard that she was leaving, Zhang’s mother’s eyes suddenly filled with tears. I was red, but I also knew that this was something that couldn't be stopped.

Unexpectedly, the two children started to quarrel at that time, shouting to Xiangnan, "No, no, no, I still have to take care of Zhang Xiangbei. I'm gone. Who will take care of Zhang Xiangbei? There are many things that grandparents don't understand, so he Once you've cheated, you've been cheated.

Tan Shuzhen and Xiao Zhao laughed and said, then you can still control him for the rest of your life?

Xiang Nan said that when grandma and grandma are as old as grandma, just like grandma still takes care of grandpa and grandma still takes care of grandpa, I can still take care of Zhang Xiangbei.

People in the room laughed, and Xiangnan became anxious. She pointed at Zhang Xiangbei and said, "Zhang Xiangbei, tell yourself, is it because your sister doesn't care about you that you can't do anything well? You don't want to play the ball well either. Qin doesn’t want to practice well, and she doesn’t want to do her homework well either?”

Zhang Xiangbei nodded repeatedly and said, "I don't care anyway. If my sister is not here, I won't even play ball, practice the piano, or do my homework. I won't even eat. I'll starve myself." die!"

Although the child's words were unbridled, the adults in the room were moved. They also felt that it was too pitiful for a child to be alone. If two people were together, they would at least have a companion. Tan Shuzhen and Xiao Zhao couldn't bear it at first.

Everyone finally came up with a solution, that is, from Sunday night to Friday night, they would still live in the "Jinxiu Home" from south to north, so that it would be convenient for them to go to and from school.

On Friday and Saturday nights, the two of them lived by the Mishi River. Tan Shuzhen could take them to practice football and piano. Tan Shuzhen and Zhang Chen Xiaozhao said, your Sundays are not accurate. Well, I have to work overtime. I’m free on Saturdays and Sundays, so leave it to me.

The two children also agreed to this arrangement. Anyway, as long as they were together, it didn't matter where they lived. Mother Zhang also breathed a sigh of relief. Teacher Tan and Mrs. Tan felt from the bottom of their hearts that they could only live together for a year. I have seen the south face once or twice, and now I am very satisfied.

Everyone is happy.

The next day, Mrs. Tan said she wanted to invite colleagues from Tan Shuzhen’s work unit to have dinner at home. Zhang Chen and Xiao Zhao were also there. Tan Shuzhen said, “Then I’ll ask Gang Zi to come too. It can’t be said that everyone else is here and the boss is not here.” .

Teacher Tan sat silently and flipped through the newspaper. In his opinion, he felt that this was his daughter's home after all, and he could ignore many things as long as he could. It was no better than at his own home in Yongcheng. Of course he was parents.

Mrs. Tan said, just scream.

Tan Shuzhen and Liu Ligan talked about the meal, called Zhang Chen, and then called Lao Yang. Although Lao Yang was no longer from their company, he had worked in their company. The most important thing was that he was an old acquaintance. , have something to say with Teacher Tan and Mrs. Tan, and no matter what, in the eyes of Teacher Tan and Mrs. Tan, Zhang Chen is always the younger generation, but Lao Yang is not the same.

Tan Shuzhen calculated that with Lao Yang present, Liu Ligan would not be so embarrassed, and the whole dining atmosphere would not be so stiff.

As soon as Lao Yang heard that Teacher Tan and Mrs. Tan were here, they had dinner together in the evening. Lao Yang said okay, I must come to eat this meal. Tan Shuzhen, even if you hit me with a broom, you won't drive me away.

Tan Shuzhen deliberately went home two hours early to help her mother prepare.

When the time came, Zhang Chen and Xiao Zhao came, Lao Tan and Yao Fen, and two other colleagues from the company also arrived, but only Liu Ligan did not come. Zhang Chen quietly asked Tan Shuzhen, "Didn't you call the pole?"

"I screamed." Tan Shuzhen said.

When I asked Lao Tan again, Lao Tan said that Zhuangzi knew he was going to eat here. When we left the office together, I thought he should have arrived earlier than me.

Xiao Zhao was on the side, smiling with her lips pursed while listening to their conversation. Zhang Chen and Lao Tan both looked at her. Zhang Chen asked in confusion: "Why are you laughing?"

Xiao Zhao said: "When you go to your mother-in-law's house, you always go empty-handed?"

Zhang Chen and Lao Tan suddenly realized and laughed. That's right, Liu Ligan must have gone to the supermarket to buy something.

But when Lao Yang arrived in a panic, he shouted as soon as he entered the door: "Lao Tan, Lao Tan!"

The two old men in the room turned around and looked at him. Old Yang burst into laughter and said okay, this will make a mistake.

"Teacher Tan, I'm sorry, I was delayed by several students' parents, so I'm late." Lao Yang said.

Teacher Tan smiled and said: "When you, Mr. Yang, call me Teacher Tan, why do I feel that I am getting old immediately?"

"I can't help it. Who asked you all to have the surname Tan." Lao Yang pointed at Lao Tan and said, everyone laughed.

The dishes were all served, but Liu Ligan was still nowhere to be seen. Zhang Chen looked at his watch. It was already half past six. Even if he went shopping, he should have been back by now.

Zhang Chen, Lao Tan and Xiao Zhao looked at each other and stood up. He walked out and called Liu Ligan, but his phone was turned off.

Zhang Chen walked back. Lao Tan and Xiao Zhao both looked at him. Zhang Chen shook his head slightly. Both of them understood that things were not that simple.

Tan Shuzhen also saw it, but she didn't say anything. Instead, she asked everyone to come to the table. Come on, let's start the meal.

Everyone avoided this meal. It seemed that even Yao Fen and two other colleagues tacitly understood it, and no one mentioned Liu Ligan.

Even Lao Yang's quick talk didn't say that as soon as he saw Liu Ligan's absence and thought about the history between Liu Ligan and Tan Shuzhen, he knew that Liu Ligan had to miss today's dinner.

Liu Ligan didn't show up until they finished eating.

After finishing the meal, Lao Yang still sat here and continued chatting. The other people sat for a while and left. When they walked outside, Lao Tan and Zhang Chen Xiaozhao asked, what's going on with this pole?

Zhang Chen thought for a while and said, Xiao Zhao, take your brother's car back and I'll go upstairs to the dynamic zone to take a look.

Both Lao Tan and Xiao Zhao agreed.

Zhang Chen arrived upstairs at the dynamic zone. He saw Ge Ling and the others were still working overtime in the design center. Xu Qiaoxin and his foreign trade company on the second floor were also brightly lit. Only the dormitory building was dark, and even the lights in Liu Ligan's room were dark. .

Zhang Chen thought for a while, then walked over, knocked on the door, and shouted: "Pole, it's me."

The lights in the room turned on, and then the door opened. Thick smoke rolled out. Zhang Chen walked in and saw that the ashtray on the coffee table was full of cigarette butts.

"What's wrong with you?" Zhang Chen asked.

"Nothing happened." Liu Ligan muttered.

"We were all waiting for you, but you burned incense here alone. Are you worshiping yourself as a Bodhisattva?" Zhang Chen said, "Tan Shuzhen didn't call you?"

"Called." Liu Ligan picked up the water glass on the coffee table and took a sip.

"Then why didn't you go?" Zhang Chen asked.

Liu Ligan was silent. After a while, he said, "I'm tired."

Zhang Chen was stunned for a moment and then fell silent.

The two of them sat and finished smoking two cigarettes. Liu Ligan said, "I'm hungry. Come with me to Tuxiangyuan for dinner."

Zhang Chen said yes.

The two of them stood up, went out, went downstairs, and arrived at the parking lot. Zhang Chen and Liu Ligan said, take my car and I will drive.

Liu Ligan said yes.

…

When Zhang Chen was almost driving to Daxue Road, he called Tan Shuzhen and told her, I'm almost at the door of your company, come out.

Tan Shuzhen smiled and said: "Then just come in. Why, you don't know my office, and you still need me to wait for you at the gate?"

"I have something to ask you, so don't be nagging and come out." After Zhang Chen finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

Zhang Chen drove to the entrance of Qiushi Academy and saw Tan Shuzhen standing at the door waiting for him. Zhang Chen pressed the window and told Tan Shuzhen to get in the car.

Tan Shuzhen walked to the passenger seat, opened the door and got in the car. Zhang Chen started the car and left.

He drove to the Blue Mountain Coffee on Ding'an Road, got out of the car, and Tan Shuzhen asked: "Who else did you date?"

"No one, just the two of us." Zhang Chen said.

Tan Shuzhen smiled and said: "Just the two of us? Why are we just two here?"

"Tryst!" Zhang Chen said angrily, "Go to my place in case Xiao Zhao sees it, and go to your place in case the pole sees it. Is that okay?"

Tan Shuzhen laughed and said, okay, then we will have a tryst.

As she spoke, she came to hold Zhang Chen's hand and told him that trysts should always have the intimacy of a tryst.

Zhang Chen laughed.

The two people went upstairs and chose a seat by the window to sit down. Outside the window, there were buds bursting out one by one on the sparse branches of the plane tree.

"Can we talk now?" Tan Shuzhen looked at Zhang Chen and asked.

"Aren't you surprised that the pole didn't go out when you had dinner at your house last night?" Zhang Chen said.

"Love will come or not." Tan Shuzhen said.

"Then do you want to know where I went after I came out of your house?" Zhang Chen asked.

"I don't want to know." Tan Shuzhen saw Zhang Chen staring at her and said with a smile, "You will tell me anyway."

"I'm speechless." Zhang Chen shook his head, "You two are even more unreasonable than Xiang Nan Xiang North."

"Are they unreasonable? Zhang Chen, if you want to ruin your son, don't take my daughter with you."

"Okay, they are naive. I mean, you two are more unpredictable than them. I don't know what you want to do." Zhang Chen said.

"I've told you what I want to do. I just want to live a good life." Tan Shuzhen said.

"What about the pole? He's not in your sight?"

"Yeah, I go to work every day and I don't always see him."

Zhang Chen said: "After I left your house last night, I went upstairs to the dynamic zone. Zhan Zi was alone and smoked in the room with the lights off. He was almost crazy from smoking. I accompanied him to Tuxiang Garden for dinner. I listened to him sing "Hey Hey Hey Hey" for another hour. One night, we didn't speak more than twenty sentences. Damn it, is this still a pole?"

Zhang Chen looked at Tan Shuzhen and continued: "But among the less than twenty sentences, one of his sentences scared me. He said he was tired."

Tan Shuzhen listened to Zhang Chen's words silently. She stirred the coffee with a spoon. After Zhang Chen finished speaking, she fell silent. She looked at Tan Shuzhen. Tan Shuzhen raised her head and smiled reluctantly at Zhang Chen. She said:

"Actually, he doesn't need to be so tired. Zhang Chen, you can ask him if he feels that I'm disturbing him. If so, I can walk away. No, I hope to continue working. Really, I like it very much. In this job, if he feels that my working ability is not enough to obtain my current income and position, he can make adjustments.

"But I think that I am doing my job and I am worthy of this salary, so I just want to continue to work well, it's that simple."
