Siheyuan, a comfortable life under Zhengyang Gate

"I'm sorry, brothers and sisters. I was delayed on the road and am late."

Peng Tao brought Hehua and the children to the Wangfujing branch of Zhiweilou Restaurant, and first apologized for being late.

He went back to No. 4 Middle School to pick up Hehua and the child, but he didn't expect that there was some urgent matter at the school that needed to be dealt with, so he was delayed for more than half an hour.

Cheng Zhongguo smiled and said, "It's not even five o'clock yet, so you're not late."

"That's right. We agreed to meet at five o'clock. Now it's still a quarter to five." Hao Aiguo checked the time. "What's going on? Lao Xu, Lao Zheng, and Xia Fang haven't come yet. We must make them drink three glasses of wine as punishment."

Yang Yukun said: "Old Xu, Old Zheng, Xiafang and the others are busy and can't join us for this gathering."

"I can't come. What's the situation?"

"Old Xu, Old Zheng, Xia Fang and the others aren't coming?"

"Yes, everyone is busy. Now that everyone is here, let's go to the box."

After Peng Tao and his family of three came over, all the old classmates had arrived for today's class reunion.

The group came to the private room and sat down, asking the waiter to tell the kitchen to serve the food.

"In a blink of an eye, it has been ten years since we graduated from college. Time flies."

"Yes, time flies like an arrow, the days and months pass by like a shuttle, and time flies by."

"Back then, Jingping, Yulan, Zhu Jing, Ran Xiaoyi, and Xiafang were the five golden flowers in our class."

"Didn't you, Old Cheng, have a crush on classmate Yao Yulan back then?"

"Old Hao, stop talking nonsense."

"I'm not talking nonsense."

Yao Yulan smiled and said, "Classmate Cheng Zhongguo, why didn't you confess to me at the beginning?"

"Weren't you timid at that time?" Cheng Zhongguo smiled and glanced at Zhao Huijun secretly. Zhao Huijun was looking at him with a smile. It seemed that she would not have a good time tonight.

Yao Yulan was beautiful and one of the five most beautiful girls in the class. At that time, there was more than one male classmate who had a crush on her.

This happened many years ago. His child is now over three years old. The ignorance of those days has long disappeared in the long river of time.

Yang Yukun smiled and said, "Great, Old Cheng. I didn't expect that a guy like you with thick eyebrows and big eyes actually had a crush on our classmate Yao Yulan."

Cheng Zhongguo said, "Brothers and sisters, let's stop talking about this. It's okay for you to joke with me. After all, my face is thicker than the wall of Badaling. But classmate Yao Yulan is a girl, so let's not joke around."

Yao Yulan smiled and said, "I'm already thirty-six, and my child is almost five years old. Is there any girl as old as me?"

Cheng Zhongguo continued, "Then you are one year younger than me. I was born in 1955."

Hao Aiguo said: "I am the oldest among those present. I was born in 1953. What year was Teacher Peng born in?"

Peng Tao said: "I was born in 1959."

Cheng Zhongguo said: "Xiaokun and Jingping should be the youngest in our class, right?"

Yang Yukun said: "Jingping and I were both born in 1961, Jingping is three months younger than me."

Hao Aiguo said: "I remember that you two were the youngest in our class. You were only sixteen years old, not even seventeen."

"Correct."

When they took the college entrance examination in 1977, Yang Yukun and Xu Jingping were indeed only sixteen years old. When the spring semester started in 1978, they were not yet seventeen years old and were indeed the youngest students in the class.

Cheng Zhongguo went on to say: "The most enviable thing is that Xiaokun and Jingping were engaged since childhood. They grew up together as childhood sweethearts."

Hao Aiguo continued: "Yes, Xiaokun and Jingping are really a perfect couple."

Yao Yulan said: "An interesting thing happened at the beginning. The classmates all thought that Peng Jianguo and Peng Tao were brothers, but they didn't expect that they were actually uncle and nephew."

Cheng Zhongguo continued, "Yes, I remember that Teacher Peng was very introverted and didn't talk much. He just played with Xiao Kun and the others all day long."

Hao Aiguo continued: "In the end, it turned out that Teacher Peng was the first to find a partner and got married right after graduation. He is so much younger than us, and his child is indeed the oldest."

He Hua said: "When Mr. Peng and I were dating, he talked a lot."

Hao Aiguo went on to say: "So in this respect, I still admire Mr. Peng very much. Although he doesn't talk much at ordinary times, he never lets down his guard at critical moments, and he has the courage to pursue the girl he likes when he meets her.

It’s not like us back then, we couldn’t even speak clearly to girls, we only dared to stare at the ground and didn’t dare to look at them.”

Peng Tao was chuckling on the side, with a smile on his face that never stopped.

He was indeed an introvert in the past. Although he had some changes after living in the same dormitory with Yang Yukun and others for four years, what really changed his personality was when he started working after graduating from university.

After graduation.

He became a teacher and had to teach students every day. He couldn't just transmit knowledge to students with his mind, right?
He doesn't have that much ability.

From the first time he trembled on stage to now speaking confidently and eloquently in front of thousands of people, he has indeed grown a lot in the past ten years.

Although he was introverted, he was far ahead of the single male and female classmates in terms of finding a partner.

From the time he and He Hua officially established their relationship in 1981 to now, they have been together for eleven years.

Their son, Peng Yiheng, is already over seven years old. "Come on, brothers and sisters, have a drink."

"Old Cheng, your glass is empty, please fill it up."

"Got it."

"Touch one!"

"Done!"

The group drank and chatted, reminiscing about their college days and lamenting that time passed so quickly.

Even after the show ended, I still felt unsatisfied.

…………

It was dark when the show ended.

The group separated in the parking lot of Zhiweilou Restaurant Wangfujing Branch.

Xu Jingping, Hehua and Zhao Huijun did not drink, so they were responsible for driving.

Hao Aiguo and his family of three went with Cheng Zhongguo and Zhao Huijun, and Cheng Zhongguo and Zhao Huijun sent them home.

"Let's retreat too." After watching Cheng Zhongguo and his party leave, Yang Yukun withdrew his gaze.

"Xiaokun, Jingping, Yulan, let's go first." Peng Tao said: "Yulan, I wish you a safe journey tomorrow."

"Thank you."

"Goodbye, Uncle Kun and Auntie, goodbye, Auntie Yulan, Xiao Zongzi, Pingping, Xiao Yumi, I'll come visit you guys on the weekend."

"Brother Yiheng, let's go to the zoo to see the giant pandas next weekend."

"it is good."

"Let's go back too."

After Peng Tao's family of three left, Yang Yukun's family of five and Yao Yulan followed suit, and they first sent Yao Yulan back to the February Flower Hotel.

The next morning after breakfast, Xu Jingping sent Yao Yulan to the airport to catch a flight.

After making a pot of tea, Yang Yukun picked up today's newspaper and read it.

The newspaper published the news that the Khun Paen Charity Foundation was about to hold the first Khun Paen academic competition.

The Kunping academic competition is scheduled to start in June and last from June 1st to August 1st, a total of two months.

The competitions are divided into mathematics competition, chemistry competition, physics competition, biology competition, computer competition and Chinese competition.

The six major competitions are held simultaneously, and those responsible for setting questions and judging are top experts and scholars from various universities and research institutions.

The Kun Ping Subject Competition is open to all high school students across the country and is divided into preliminary rounds, semi-finals, finals and the grand final.

The competition is very cruel. Only the top one thousand talents are eligible to participate in the semi-finals. Only six thousand people will be selected for the semi-finals of the six major competitions.

It is already difficult to qualify for the semi-finals, and it is even more difficult to win the first place in the Kunping subject competition.

After the news of the Kunping academic competition was announced, it caused a huge sensation and countless students signed up.

The reason why it caused such a sensation is not only because there is no registration fee, but also because there is a considerable prize money.

As long as you rank among the top 1,000 and qualify for the semi-finals, you will be able to receive a considerable bonus.

There are bonuses for entering the finals, and the bonuses for entering the grand final are even higher.

If you can enter the semi-finals, then the finals, and then the grand finals, you can get three bonuses in a row.

If you get first place in the preliminary round and enter the semi-finals, first place in the semi-finals and enter the finals, first place in the finals and enter the grand finals, and first place again in the grand finals, the accumulated prize money will be enormous.

Everyone wants to be this lucky person.

"It's okay, I finally made some noise." Yang Yukun put down the newspaper.

The Kun Ping Charity Foundation has been in operation for a long time now, and Yang Wen has finally made some progress. He is very much looking forward to the successful holding of the Kun Ping Academic Competition.

"Ding ding ding..."

"Who's calling?"

Hearing the phone ringing in the room, Yang Yukun got up and walked into the living room of the main house.

After getting a mobile phone, people usually call them by mobile phone, while few people call their home landline.

Only Bakayev, Anasha and others who were far away in the country of Damuo, and Xu Jingtian who was far away in Milijian would contact them by landline.

I picked up the phone and heard the voice coming from the other end. It was Xu Jingtian calling back from Milijian.

It's May now, and this girl is officially on summer vacation, from May to August. Tomorrow this girl will fly back from Milijian. (End of this chapter)
