217. Chance and Necessity

No matter what others think of him, Yang Yi doesn't have much time to pay attention to him now, because at this moment Jiang Nan is looking at him with hurt and wronged eyes: "It must be lying to me! No matter, I don't care, I don't care. I want a gift. (Mobile phone access: .)-=Member typed by hand=*”

That look is like that of an invincible super cute puppy who has been scolded by its owner for no reason.

Yang is all grown up.

Although he knew that this was the girl's deliberate appearance, but so what!ignore it?Or is it righteous to declare, "Sorceress, stop pretending, and give me a stick from my old grandson"?

Yang Yi didn't do anything, he just felt sorry for himself in his heart - Er was wrong, Er was really wrong, Er was wrong from the very beginning.I shouldn't accept Jiang Nan's invitation. If I don't accept Jiang Nan's invitation, I don't need to work hard to make gifts;

It was probably because the two of them had been whispering on one side for too long, and there were a few parents whose sense of crisis had soared to the top, winking and moving, desperately driving their son to this side.

If these people have no feelings for Jiang Nan, then they are lying with their eyes open, they have no reverie in their hearts, and they will not come here with their parents.But most likely it was because Jiang Jianmo was present, or the boys who joined the banquet this time were all thin-skinned, so even though two or three pairs of parents spared no effort to persuade them, no one came to Yang Yi. and Jiang Nan.

Boys dare not, men dare.

Probably because he just ignored his daughter, left behind what he was supposed to do, and ran away to complain a little. Jiang Jianmo had arranged a table of guests, sneaked over to the two of them, and kept nodding at them along the way. Greeting, and finally turned to the daughter with a meaningless face, and Yang Yi who was silent and polite: "Yi, here we come."

It should be that Jiang Jianmo's heart is quite complicated now. Although he is very optimistic about Yang Yi, a boy who is not suitable for ordinary teenagers, and knows some of his daughter's thoughts, but seeing the two of them in front of so many people, they seem like It is the same as blatantly showing something.

This time, he made up his mind before not to interfere with his precious daughter's decision at will, and at this moment, it is inevitable that he will feel a little bit like an old father.

But when Jiang Jianmo came here at this time, he just planned to express his attitude with actions and remind Jiang Nan a little bit, but he didn't think about what to do.

And Yang Yi saw that Jiang Jianmo had left so many guests behind, so he came here for a walk, of course he would not be so arrogant as to think that this was the reason why he was too important.And since the secretary has spoken, he naturally has to respond.

But it was just a very indifferent greeting: "Hello, Uncle Jiang."

Yang Yi said this with a smile, and his tone was very relaxed.When Jiang Jianmo met the boys who came at the beginning, he was either in awe or greeted him with a flattering manner, but now he was confronted with this boy, and suddenly felt discouraged.

What can he do? Faced with such a young man who is almost too mature, does he really need his own advice?Thinking about controlling certain things, he should be measured.

Taking another look at his daughter who was slightly wary, Jiang Jianmo smiled helplessly, then nodded at Yang: "It's fun, just don't be restrained."

Some people originally hoped that after Jiang Jianmo passed away, they would teach this boy who "hooked up" with his daughter - giveimlreeee, how could they expect such a harmonious atmosphere.

Some people saw that Jiang Jianmo's attitude towards Yang Yi was different from other children, and a woman who had already sat down at the middle table, obviously the chairman's seat, asked with a smile: "Brother Jianmo, whose family does this child belong to?" ? And which leader’s child?”

Those who can call Jiang Jianmo like this can only be relatives in his family. In fact, this woman is the younger sister of a brother-in-law of Jiang Jianmo, and she has no blood relationship with the Jiang family. Seated people.But she is able to sit here now, thanks to the businessman's husband's blessing. During this period of time, her family's company has contracted an outsourced publicity task from the Municipal Party Committee's Propaganda Department. table.

However, Jiang Jianmo is naturally not easy to understand. Looking at Yang Yi, who has already been seated under Jiang Nan's arrangement, and then looked at the beautiful lake scenery outside the window, he seems very casual: "Nuan's classmate is also his good friend. friend.()"

"Oh?" There was still some suspicion in the woman's eyes, but when she looked at Jiang Nan who had returned to the steps to greet the guests, she didn't have anything to say.

As more and more guests came up, everyone forgot about the episode just now.More eyes were focused on a table next to Jiang Nan, which was covered with red silk, which was slightly different than the dining table used for the banquet.But now, most of the beaming red color has been hidden by the piles of gifts, and there is hardly a gap to be seen.

There were also guests who kept putting gifts in Jiang Nan's hands, and joked a little bit from time to time.

Apart from his special attitude towards Yang Yi, Jiang Nan didn't make his father fearful, nor did he act off-line. He just stood there with a graceful face and was still being praised by the guests.

About half an hour later, the time is about to point to five o'clock.At this time, it was almost evening, and the sky in early spring was not as dark as it was at this time a month ago.At the end of the distant mountains in the west, the sun still left a little red corner.

The sky is full of lingering afterglow and dim dusk.

Among the buildings lined up in the distance, there are already lights like beans, and there is the warmth of the first lanterns.

Basically, all the guests have arrived, because people on this floor are close to Jiang Jianmo, so everyone seems more casual, but the atmosphere is very good.Of course, the father and daughter will walk around the restaurant on the fourth floor below, but at this time, Jiang Jianmo's younger sister, Jiang Biyao, is hosting below, so the secretary and his precious daughter are mainly greeting this group. The guests on the first floor take their seats.

It was Jiang Nan who celebrated the birthday, not Jiang Jianmo, and the participants were almost the same age. The children in the family were from the second to the third year of junior high school, so the topic gradually became involved in the education of their children. on the question.

This topic is something that everyone is very interested in, and Jiang Nan's problems are also known to everyone. Talking about these will not only not make the girl bored, on the contrary, it will also make Jiang Jianmo look good.

As a result, the discussions between the adults became more and more lively.

But since it is a chat, the topic will always be taken to a fork from time to time, just like the woman who was deflated under Jiang Nan's mouth at the beginning.Although Jiang Nan's eloquent teeth like a witch made her very uncomfortable, but with the father of the secretary of the municipal party committee, how could she still hate girls.

But he transferred his dissatisfaction to Yang Yi.

Now that everyone is talking about children's education, and they want to show their son in front of Jiang Nan's father and daughter, they pretend to have nothing to do with each other and smile: "Hey, when it comes to grades, Nuan Nan is the best. At the end of last semester In the first high school exam, my daughter seems to be No.3 in the grade? My family, Hong Li, is eight places away. If Mumu was not in the first high school, Hong Li could barely get into the top ten of the grade, and now there is no hope. "

It sounded like he was bragging about Jiang Nan, and by the way he hated his son very much.But in fact, with the teaching level of Yuezhou No. [-] High, as long as he can guarantee the top [-] positions in the grade, he will basically be able to get into the top universities in China by then, and it will basically be a matter of holding snails with three fingers.

There must be a difference, that is, the difference between entering Tsinghua University and Peking University, or entering Shanghai Jiaotong University, and the University is almost negligible.

As soon as this woman opened her mouth, many parents felt embarrassed to talk about their sons and daughters.The highest ranking in the first high school is no more than these two, and the remaining two are parents of high school sophomores, so they cannot be directly compared.

It was the woman who had asked Jiang Jianmo what Yang Yi was from before, so she smiled and said, "Murming is the third in grade! That's just right, our Yi Jihu is also the third in foreign languages, but this is It's time to compete. Ji Hu, do you think you can get rid of the results in the second half of the semester?"

"How can Sufen's words be dismissed by murmurs?" Jiang Jianmo waved his hands repeatedly and said, "Well, boys have more stamina when it comes to learning. I don't ask her for her grades or what she gets in the exam." University, as long as you live happily."

Everyone thought it was Jiang Jianmo who was being humble, and only Jiang Nan knew that this was probably his father's sincere blessing to him.When the girl heard this, her nose felt a little sore for a while, but her heart felt warm.

The father and daughter seemed to have a tacit understanding, and they glanced at Yang Yi who was sitting by the window at the same time.If it wasn't for this boy to mediate in the middle, would they be able to taste such warmth like now?

The woman Jiang Jianmo called Sufen was still Jiang Nan's aunt, but she was not related by blood.Hearing the Jiang family's father and daughter say this, they just thought they were being modest, so they laughed flatteringly, with a sharp voice unique to middle-aged women: "Oh, Brother Jianmo, this is too modest. Son, I don't think it's strange to be the first in the grade in the second half of the year. I heard that she also joined the Mathematical Olympiad? If she hadn't been distracted by this, her grades would definitely improve."

While talking, the woman pinched her son secretly. His name was Yi Jihu, but he sounded like a boy with a sense of timelessness, so he hurriedly said, "Yes, I heard that our school students who joined the Mathematical Olympiad have joined this school. It was a waste of time and energy, I just felt that my ability could not keep up, so I gave up the game, it is still not as good as Jiang Nan."

"Why do I feel that you have bad intentions for boasting so desperately?" Although Jiang Jianmo was humble when his daughter was praised, he was still happy in his heart: "I want to make Nuan Nuan paralyzed. Son so that he can get over her?"

"Haha, brother Jianmo saw it!" The woman named Sufen chuckled, and the expression on her face suddenly became three points mysterious: "Nuan is such an outstanding girl, she looks first-class, and she can't do without male classmates at school." Pursue?"

Although all the people present were relatives and friends of the Jiang family, when it came to closeness, only people like her who were close or far away were the most suitable people to mention this topic.Moreover, she has her own plan to lead the conversation to this point now.

My son and the girl Jiang Nan are actually not in the same school. If you want to make decisions on the next generation, there will be a little sense of distance between the younger generation.

In this way, some boys, taking advantage of being in the same school as Jiang Nan, play illusions such as getting the moon first when they are close to the water.Although they also knew that Jiang Jianmo would not watch this kind of thing happen, they were still not at ease.

Taking this opportunity to bring it up now is also intended to give Jiang Jianmo a side drum. It is not easy for me to intervene in this kind of matter, and the girl's father will never ignore it?

Although this woman originally wanted Jiang Jianmo to be vigilant, gossip topics like this seem to be the favorite of the public, so as soon as she uttered her words, many people took a look at her words, including uncles, and even more so. It was laughing and booing, very afraid that the world would be stable.

"Hey, what about male classmates and female classmates..."

Jiang Jianmo just wanted to confuse this topic, but immediately someone with a better relationship quit: "Why, are you afraid that your precious girl will be abducted? Don't be afraid, girl, do you have a sweetheart? Come out, uncle will decide!"

This bearded man was Jiang Jianmo's old comrade-in-arms, so he was naturally not afraid of the secretary's anger.

And the daughter he brought happened to be the leader of the eldest sister in the second grade of the first high school. After hearing this, she winked and smiled and said, "I heard it when I came here just now. It seems that Pan Fan brought the The gift I gave you is the pendant of the lady's house, or the kind where one person and one half are combined to form a star, is it still hidden in the bouquet of pink roses?"

This revelation undoubtedly ignited the raging gossip souls of everyone in the field. Everyone smiled and looked at a certain boy sitting on a table in the middle who couldn't lift his head, and the parents beside him.

Pan Fan's father naturally gave his son a serious look with deep meaning, but his mother, a middle-aged woman who had experienced human affairs, was thick-skinned enough to cast a glance at his embarrassing son indifferently. Then the flames of war went to other people's house: "Hey, don't laugh at us Pan Fan. I saw Ji Hu just now. The gift he gave seemed to be a jade pendant? Sister Sufen, is that not your own dowry, or the Yi family passing it on to his daughter-in-law? Tool of?"

Yang Yi on the side was very ashamed, these aunt-level characters were all extremely cruel, and they often twisted their words to the level that ordinary people would find it hard to resist.

In fact, his worries were superfluous. Jiang Nan didn't respond to these topics at all, but just sneaked out a satisfied look.If you explain it carefully, it should be "Sister is still very popular", "Seize the opportunity, young man" and so on.

And after this topic turned around, it finally came to Hong Li from before. The family probably investigated Jiang Nan's preferences very well, so the gift they gave was actually quite expensive. the violin.

Hong Li's mother was naturally satisfied, and even Hong Li secretly looked at Jiang Nan with some affection, hoping to see some hints from the girl.

However, their disappointment was doomed the moment they decided to give away the violin—with Mark Immel Bichenodi's famous work, how could Jiang Nan be interested in a popular item, even if It is a boutique in the piano store that sells for more than [-] to [-] yuan.

As for the more expensive violin, they may not be able to get it, and they dare not give it away.

Sure enough, Jiang Nan was just as Yang Yi thought, he just got used to that kind of smile naturally, don't have any superfluous hints.

Yang Yi pouted regretfully.

Hong Li's mother was keenly aware of the movement of Yang Yi's mouth, and she succumbed to Jiang Nan twice, which made her feel sullen in her heart.Now seeing that Yang Yi didn't have a malicious expression, but he still aimed the finger at the boy without any trouble.

In fact, there are not a few people with smiles in their eyes, but it may be that Jiang Nan unintentionally caused shock and shock to her when she took Yang Yi aside at the very beginning, or it may be purely wanting to vent her anger on others.

So after glancing at Yang Yi, the middle-aged woman smiled and said, "When it comes to giving gifts, I know something new. Don't look at so many tools, but some people don't give gifts to Mumu who really likes them."

Jiang Nan frowned instantly, and Yang Yi's eyelids twitched, thinking that this was probably a disaster from heaven.

oh?Something that Jiang Nan likes?Who didn't send it?

Everyone's curiosity was instantly mobilized, and they all looked at Hong Li's mother who said this.

She smiled very reservedly, and the woman pretended to be innocent and said: "I don't know too well, I just know that this guy forgot to bring a gift when he came up, and he was chased after him by muttering. So, we gave our daughter I don't care, the things my daughter cares about are not given away."

The woman pointed at Yang Yi with a smile, her tone was like that of a silly elder sister gossip, but this smile and pointing undoubtedly pushed Yang Yi to the forefront of the storm.

His heart can be punished.

In an instant, he sat firmly in the position of being the target of public criticism. On Yang Yi's left was a girl who was about the same age, and on the right was Obasan.

Now hearing that this kid still has such a dark history, the two women moved away a little as if nothing had happened.

There were many whispers and discussions.

"Whose child is this? Really didn't bring any tools?"

"I don't know, who knows. In fact, it's not like he really cares about his tools. It's a matter of politeness!"

"That's right, the current people..."

And in the middle, Jiang Nan's complexion is obviously not very good, of course it's not because of Yang Yi.

She is only regretting now, the ridicule of the woman was too light at the beginning.

If Yang Yi really didn't prepare anything, he would probably have to spend this birthday party with the eyes of most people watching a joke.

But to Yang Yilai, who had been prepared for a long time, the words of that annoying woman seemed like a group of people were flattering.

But she jumped out and shouted, "Let the professionals come."

In any case, this is roughly the result.

The sky is slightly darker than before, and the last light before the night after dusk adds a bit of fairytale color to this moment.

On the Bell and Drum Tower in the distance, there was a distant bell, only one.

05:30 in sunny early spring.

The twilight grows crazily in the shadows, and a glimpse of the tired bird returns to the forest.

"Uh, can I turn on the TV?" Yang Yi just stood up amidst all the different looks on his face, and smiled at Jiang Jianmo, as if he didn't remember what everyone said just now.

Only Jiang Nan, without waiting for his father's promise, came to the wall-mounted TVs on each floor in three steps and two steps. With a messy heartbeat and hope that he would not come out, he pressed the switch of the electrical appliance button. ~~~~
