Reborn Scholar

Chapter 61

Meng Shi was surprised to see the person coming.

"Brother Yan, sister Junjun, why are you here?"

Tong Yan jumped out of the car gracefully, and whistled at Meng Shi, "Hey, sister Shi, your house is really hard to find."

Zou Jun ignored Tong Yan, walked up to Meng Shi and gave her a big hug.

Meng Shi blinked, she always felt that Zou Jun and Tong Yan were a little strange.

Look, now that Zou Jun is holding her, Tong Yan's eyes are glued to Zou Jun.

This is really strange.

"Come in and sit down." Meng Shi beckoned the two of them to enter the room.

"You go in first, I'll take things down."

Meng Shi was helpless, but now it was Chinese New Year, if she went to someone's house, even if she knew her well, she would bring some gifts.

"Xiao Fei, go and help Brother Yan get things." Meng Shi beckoned his younger brother to help.

Meng Xiangfei didn't lose her wink either, she passed by without her sister's greeting.

Parents wash their hands too.

Tong Yan came in with big bags and small bags, donkey-hide gelatin, cordyceps gift boxes, and some dried seafood, etc., a lot, a lot.

Parents rushed to meet them, picked them up and put them aside, and shouted at Meng Shi, "Make tea for the guests from time to time."

Because when it comes to the Chinese New Year, it is inevitable that people will visit, so there are several thermos bottles at home, all of which are full, so I can make tea directly when people come.

Generally, small teacups are used for making tea when entertaining guests.

But Meng Shi bought some artistically shaped glass cups earlier.

Grab some good tea leaves to make tea.

Of course, if you use the water in the thermos bottle like this, the tea will taste the same no matter how good it is.

Then, Meng Shi introduced Zou Jun and Tong Yan to his parents one by one.

Hearing Meng Shi say that Tong Yan and Han Cheng grew up together, their parents knew that this person's family background must be unusual.In this way, the words can not help but be a little cautious.

After all, the difference between that kind of family background and the Meng family is like the comparison between the first-rank official's family and the small farm family in ancient times.Of course, the class difference may not be that big, but it is different after all.

Parents couldn't let go, so they asked Meng Shi to entertain the guests well.

Meng Xiangfei was also politely talking with Tong Yan at the side.

Meng Shi chatted with Zou Jun, but she always felt that Tong Yan's visit was a bit strange this time. Although she was chatting with Meng Xiangfei, her eyes wandered over from time to time.

This is not the time, and Meng Shi didn't ask any more questions.

"I'm so surprised why you guys came here." Meng Shi laughed.

Tong Yan coughed lightly, "Junjun is coming, I don't worry about her being alone."

Meng Shi couldn't help blinking immediately, what rhythm is this?She could see Tong Yan's attitude towards Zou Jun before.

Zou Jun ignored Tong Yan, and only held Meng Shi's hand and said, "I'm so bored in City B, I wanted to go out for a stroll, but I didn't know where to go, and I suddenly remembered you, so I came here. Why, You're not welcome, are you?"

Meng Shi smiled, "Why don't you welcome me? But I don't have any interesting places here, and it's a rural area, so don't dislike it. It's late today, and tomorrow I will take you to my family's forest. There are many fruit trees."

Dinner was very rich.

Meng Shi helped his mother make it together, because during the Chinese New Year, all kinds of ingredients were bought a lot.

After dinner, it was completely dark.

There are no street lights installed in the countryside at this time, especially in winter, when the weather is cold, and every family has an early meal and then nestles in the bed to watch TV or chat, or go to bed early.

Mother Lin Lan has already gone to the house by the road, and has already renovated the upstairs of the house, laying out sheets and bedding and the like.

Because there is no heating here, I was afraid that Tong Yan and Zou Jun would not get used to it, so they even laid out electric blankets.

Meng Shi had never been used to electric blankets, and the farm's new cotton quilt was already very warm and comfortable.

Meng Shi accompanied Zou Jun and Tong Yan to sleep on the third floor over there, it's not easy for the guests to live there alone.

In Tong Yan's room, Meng Shi and Zou Jun slept together. The 1.8-meter bed was enough for two girls.

After going upstairs, Meng Shi first boiled water, put it in two plastic quilts, and held it in his hands to warm his hands and drink water.

Tong Yan had been driving for a whole day, and was also very tired, so she went to rest after taking a shower.

After Meng Shi and Zou Jun took a shower, the two girls sat under the covers and talked.

Although Zou Jun is several years older than Meng Shi, the two still get along very well.

Meng Shi asked, "What's going on? Don't tell me you're just here to play."

Zou Jun blushed, said nothing, and looked a little embarrassed.

Meng Shi laughed, "Tell me, what's going on? Brother Yan...why does it seem to have changed a lot?"

Zou Jun bit her lip and paused for a while before saying, "Shishi, I don't know what's wrong with me. I've always liked Tong Yan, and I don't know if it's because of my childhood or something, anyway...but you know, I found that he doesn't like me, he likes those beautiful and gentle girls, I just can't be gentle. After the incident last time, you told me not to cling to him, and I avoided him. Although I It's uncomfortable, but I think what you said makes sense. I like him so much, everything is centered on him, and he doesn't care about me."

"Well, then what?"

"The one named Li Shanshan, didn't she look for me before, that's the time I told you. Later, Tong Yan seemed to find out what she did, and broke up with her. Then that Li Shanshan thought it was me who did it, She looked for me twice in three days. Later, she even made a fuss with my brother. My brother didn't know what he said to her, but Li Shanshan didn't look for me anymore. But a few days ago..."

Speaking of this, Zou Jun paused, blushing a little.

"What happened the other day?"

"A few days ago, Li Shanshan went crazy, and I didn't know how to find out Tong Yan's whereabouts, so I drove to block Tong Yan. I just happened to see Tong Yan coming out with a girl, and Li Shanshan got hot-headed, so...he drove into him! "

"What!" Meng Shi's eyes widened.

"At that time, I was also looking for Tong Yan to do something. When I saw this scene, I was not far away, so I ran over and dragged Tong Yan away."

Zou Jun spoke calmly, but Meng Shi was terrified when he heard it.

"Aren't you hurt?"

Meng Shi hurriedly looked at Zou Jun.

Zou Jun shook her head, "I'm fine, I've practiced, and my skills are pretty good."

But Meng Shi glared at her, "Are you good at it? If you're good at it, what if the car really hits you? You can still fight against the car."

"But... I didn't think about it that much at the time."

Meng Shi was speechless, "Okay, okay, I'm not blaming you, hey, at that time, if I were you, I really couldn't do nothing. Then Brother Yan is okay, right?"

"fine."

Meng Shi couldn't help laughing, "Then he is repaying his life-saving grace now?"

Zou Jun glared at Meng Shi, "How would I know!"

The next day Zou Jun was taking a nap, and Meng Shi only found out the truth when he asked Tong Yan alone.

It was at the entrance of the supermarket and there was surveillance.Watching the surveillance after the incident, Zou Jun actually flew across the road from the opposite side of the road through the continuous traffic, rushed over and dragged Tong Yan away within a short ten seconds after Li Shanshan drove over.

First of all, in such a short period of time, there is no way for a normal person to rush out so far at once; secondly, when crossing the road with many vehicles, several cars almost hit Zou Jun, but Zou Jun didn't even look at it. He didn't even pause for a moment, just rushed over!
It seemed to be nothing, but Tong Yan, who watched the surveillance, felt terrified.If, if Zou Jun was even slightly distracted or paused when crossing the road, she would be hit by a car!And he would also be hit by Li Shanshan's car, just like the female subordinate who came out of the supermarket with him at that time, hit and flew to the advertising shelf behind, suffered severe fractures and is still unconscious.

Tong Yan said to Meng Shi regretfully, "I used to think that Junjun was too domineering. She always bullied me. Others said she liked me, but I never felt it. After that day, Chengzi asked me , 'Do you think you can find another person in your life who, like Junjun, rushes over to pull you away without hesitation at that moment?'"

Tong Yan smiled wryly, "I was stunned at the time. Later, Nianzi also told me that he envied me. If this is not considered liking, then there is nothing in this world that is really liking. He beat me up hard, but I didn't want to fight back at all."

Meng Shi also felt a little emotional.

If she were Zou Jun, under what circumstances would she be so desperate?Probably... not at all.

Psychological maturity has the benefits of being mature, but it also wiped out a lot of her impulses, and it is even difficult to have throbbing anymore.Calm, so calm that there are no waves, will it be boring?

Tong Yan said again, "I locked myself in the room alone, thought about it all night, and smoked five packs of cigarettes. I was thinking about the little things that Junjun and I have grown up since we were young... I don't want to think about it yet. , But when I think about it, I realize that I can remember every time I was with her! Junjun is very domineering, always likes to bully me, and also likes to steal my things. At first, I was always bullied by her until I cried. But then I gradually felt her temper. She is the kind of superficially domineering, but actually very soft-hearted person. I... cough, as long as I cry, she will give me whatever I want, even if it is her favorite. thing."

"When I was young, my grades were poor, but Junjun studied very well. Every time I failed in a test, I would be beaten. I remember very clearly that once, before the exam, I discussed with Junjun and asked her to pass the answer to me. She refused. , I cried. She persisted for a while and finally softened her heart and agreed. But when she threw me the answer during the exam, she was accidentally discovered by the teacher. The teacher was so stern and selfless at that time, so I asked her directly, who did you pass on to? Answer! I was scared to death at that time, if I was told by the teacher to go to my grandfather, I would never escape with a whip! But Junjun insisted on refusing to tell. Finally, the teacher told the parents, and Junjun was beaten by Uncle Zou After a while, she was fined to write a hundred pages of large characters. Junjun is most afraid of writing calligraphy, she has no patience..."

Tong Yan babbled a lot, Meng Shi listened, and really felt that these two people were a happy couple.

Tong Yan is a more sensitive and delicate man, while Zou Jun is a woman who looks domineering but is actually soft-hearted. These two are really a perfect match!
It would be a pity if you missed it.

Fortunately, there was no danger this time. On the contrary, it made Tong Yan see his thoughts clearly. Zou Jun could be regarded as a blessing in disguise.

The countryside in winter is actually very monotonous, with endless green wheat fields and bare trees.

Fortunately, the two of them didn't care about any scenery, they just wanted to get out of the noisy city and feel the tranquility.

It is rare for Tong Yan to hand over everything to others and concentrate on accompanying Zou Jun.

Meng Shi also created opportunities for the two of them to be alone.

Although Zou Jun is still a little awkward, Tong Yan is just enough to be considerate.Meng Shi could understand Zou Jun's feelings. Tong Yan ignored her before, but he was so enthusiastic after she saved him once?Isn't this a repayment? He still doesn't like her at all, right?Poor Tong Yan really found out what she was thinking at this moment, but it was Zou Jun's turn not to believe it.But it doesn't matter, it will be fine.

What Meng Shi didn't expect was that Han Cheng would also come in his thirties.

Meng Shi couldn't help but be speechless, is this a treasured place of geomantic omen?One or two come to celebrate the New Year?

Zou Jun and Tong Yan won’t talk about it. What happened a few years ago, it’s good to go out to relax, but Han Cheng didn’t go home a few times throughout the year, and he didn’t go home for the reunion dinner during the Spring Festival. Why did he come here? ?

Han Cheng said to Meng Shi solemnly, "I'm impatient with my mother, so when I went to see my grandfather, I told him that I wanted to come to your place for the New Year, and my grandfather agreed. If my grandfather agreed, my mother naturally didn't dare to say anything. .”

Meng Shi looked at the sky, "What does this mean, old man?"

Han Cheng shook his head, "I don't know. It's probably because my mother is forcing me every time, and she feels sorry for me, so help me escape."

"..." Meng Shi's black line, what kind of reason is this, I can't believe a word.

But they are all here, and it is much more lively to spend the Spring Festival together.

On the night of New Year's Eve, after having dinner with his parents and younger brother at home, Meng Shi, Han Cheng and the others went to live in a house by the road.

The TV was on for the Spring Festival Gala, and the four of them were sitting in the living room playing cards.

This is really rare for the few of them.

The three of Han Cheng stayed at Meng Shi's house until the third day of junior high, and then returned to City B together. Meng Shi would not return until a few days later.

On the fourth day of junior high school, the whole family went to grandma’s house, and there is a tradition of returning to my mother’s home on the fourth day of junior high school.

When she came back in the evening, her mother told Meng Shi that she had inquired about it, and the girl who was in contact with my uncle was a bit older, [-], but it was a good match for my uncle.The girl has a good character, but her family is poor. Her mother died early, her father remarried, and she has younger siblings. No one cares about her.Neighbors in the neighborhood commented on the girl, saying that she was good, capable and sensible.But the appearance is more ordinary.

But I think my uncle doesn't mind the girl's appearance, if he really minded, he wouldn't be interested in her.

After that, Meng Shi didn't have to worry about it, nor could she.The relatives of the girl's grandmother were from the neighboring village, and they knew each other well, so Lu Caixia asked her to be a matchmaker.

On Grandma's side, I heard that the girl is of good character and doesn't want much dowry, so she agreed to take a look.

Of course, when the girl came, grandma was not too satisfied with it, but she couldn't help my uncle like it.And my uncle is really old, grandma has no choice but to agree.

Make a decision first, the wedding will be held on the sixteenth day of the first lunar month.

Meng Shi left home on the tenth day of the first lunar month to go to City B.

Tang Jintian was about to go crazy with his work. Meng Shi returned to City B, so he hurried over and explained all the work progress.

Looking at the pile of documents, Meng Shi was speechless.

"Brother Tian, ​​you can just deal with it. Don't forget, you are the CEO of Shengshi now."

"You're still the chairman and CEO."

"...Brother Tian, ​​are you planning to go on strike?"

Tang Jintian was very helpless, "Every time, you have to look at these things before you have the bottom of your heart."

"Okay, then I'll just watch it, and I didn't say I wouldn't watch it." Meng Shi was helpless.

"The above are all important, and it's best to give me an answer tonight."

"……it is good."

After being busy for several days, Meng Shi was finally able to relax.

But Han Cheng was quite busy.

In [-], the Asian financial turmoil continued and became stronger.

Country H and country R were all swept away.

Meng Shi is very optimistic about Samsung, but the big boss of Samsung is not a fool. On the contrary, he is very ambitious and shrewd. The funds are in trouble, and it is very difficult at the moment, so we have to consider financing to tide over the difficulties.

But even so, he refused to sell the company's shares.

Tang Jintian tried his best, and only got [-]% of the shares, and the price was not low.However, because of Meng Shi's previous currency operations in Country H, the money she used was obtained from the foreign exchange market, and she didn't spend much on her own.

It's almost busy here, and it's the Lantern Festival.

On the day of the Lantern Festival, I talked to Han Cheng on the phone. He was still in Australia, who knew he would be back the next day.

"You came back so soon?" Meng Shi was very surprised.

Han Cheng smiled, "The old man misses you so much, he insists on asking me to take you to see him."

"Can I go by myself?"

"Don't worry, old man." Han Cheng said helplessly, "My elder brother and sister-in-law will go back to Province S tomorrow, so we can have a meal together today."

Meng Shi felt a little strange, but didn't think much about it.

"That's just right. When I came from home, I brought some watermelon sauce for the old man to taste."

After changing his clothes, Meng Shi and Han Cheng went to the old man's place together.

Today, the old man's place is more lively.

Last night, as in previous years, the old man participated in the banquet above. Tonight is the whole family's Lantern Festival, which is equivalent to a family banquet. After this meal, everyone who should go back to their respective places will go back.

Before going, Meng Shi didn't think too much about it, but after she went and saw a room full of people, she felt a little nervous.

Han Cheng's uncle, uncle's mother and their son and daughter-in-law Han Qi and his wife; Han Cheng's father and mother, Han Lin, his wife and Pipi; Han Cheng's uncle and his wife and their son Han Yuan.

The whole family all stared at Meng Shi, so it's no wonder she wasn't nervous.

After saying hello one by one, Meng Shi felt that his face was going to freeze from laughter.

Fortunately, when Han Cheng threw Pippi to her, Meng Shi felt a lot more relaxed, and slowly let go.Pippi is no longer a child, he was very naughty at first, but in front of Meng Shi, he was very shy and well-behaved, and instantly turned from a little devil king into a little sheep, which made his mother Cheng Fei dumbfounded.

Everyone else was fine, and she felt probing and scrutiny in their eyes, but nothing else.But Han Cheng's mother's gaze made her feel a little sharp.

But fortunately, the old man is still very enthusiastic towards her, in front of everyone, his enthusiasm is undisguised.

This made Meng Shi feel much better.

Pippi's mother, Cheng Fei, has always been grateful to Meng Shi for saving Pippi at that time, and Pippi really likes Meng Shi, Cheng Fei was afraid that Meng Shi would feel uncomfortable here, so she always stayed by her side Chat with her or something.

Han Cheng's uncle, father, and younger uncle all knew about Meng Shi's situation and were very kind to her. After all, many men could not do what she did, and she was not inferior to those wealthy ladies.What's more, when she was so young, she saved Pippi.Their Han family misses kindness the most.

What is rare is that this girl is not arrogant or impetuous. Although she was a little nervous when she first came, she was not rude, nor did she pretend to be proud on purpose, she was very peaceful.

In human nature, the most difficult thing to achieve is peace.

After dinner, the old man called all the men in the family into the study.Han Cheng's uncle, father and younger uncle, as well as the three brothers Han Qi, Han Cheng and Han Lin.

And outside, it's a woman's world.
