warm and deep

Chapter 52 Gambling
On the [-]th day of the first lunar month, Guo Zisu officially received a notice that she would be assigned to teach in Chengguan Primary School.

She was sitting in the living room chatting with her mother when the call came.

Although I already knew that this was a fait accompli, but when I really confirmed it, I still felt an indescribable melancholy and sadness in my heart.Holding the phone that she had hung up long ago, she stood in front of the window, quietly looking at the cold sky outside, remembering that she had participated in a volunteer education with her enthusiasm, just to realize a wish she had since she was a child.

However, everything she has experienced in the past six months has made her feel that a small wish is easy to fulfill, but many things that arise from it will not end with the realization of this wish, but will give birth to countless things. The branches and vines of the people's hearts breed countless hopeful greens.

Looking at her mother's sad face, she felt sad again, and she couldn't help but hugged her mother and said, "Mom, don't worry so much. I will either come back soon, or I will take you and dad. In short, I promise , will live with you."

When Guo's mother heard this, the sadness on her face increased a little. She gently took her daughter's hand and said softly, "Zisu, you have been a good boy since you were a child, so we will let you do whatever you want." , but when it comes to marriage, you really have to consider how my father and I feel."

Guo's mother turned her face away, looked away, and said softly: "Neither your father nor I want to leave the city we live in. We are old and it is impossible to meet new people. You want us to go to a new place and You living together will only lead us into a deep loneliness. Zisu, please be considerate of me and your dad, let’s start a family here. Even if you don’t like any of those matchmaker kids, but that Xiaomi’s Aren't the classmates chasing you too?" Guo's mother turned her face again, opened a pair of dim eyes, and looked at Guo Zisu beggingly.

Guo Zisu's heart felt like being scalded by a red-hot soldering iron, and it hurt so badly that she almost shed tears.She lowered her head and forced down the hot tears that welled up.

After a long time, she raised her head and said, "Mom, I know your heart. Chen Yanming told me that although he likes me, now he wants to focus on his career. He asked me to wait, but I can't be sure about his Is it the person I'm waiting for?"

Mother Guo put her arms around her daughter's shoulders, put her face next to hers, and said, "Be careful, let it be. Mom knows you won't like that reporter, so Mom is very worried about you going there."

Sister Chunhua also said this.Guo Zisu said: "Mom, don't worry, he is also a man of culture, he is well-informed, so you can rest assured."

Guo Zisu started to pack her bags, her heart was full of joy, even though she had already arrived in the county seat, as long as she wanted, she could climb on a big truck and go to Qingshi Village on weekends to see Sister Chunhua and Uncle Gu.Thinking of them, she felt kind and warm.

It's spring, Sister Chunhua must be busy with the construction of her new house, and the pigs in her family must also grow very fat.Min Rou must be busy killing pigweed every day, and I don't know if he still goes to paint a portrait of Uncle Bone.

By the way, Xia Lian and Li Yimin got married on the sixteenth day of the first lunar month.If you work with Teacher Li, you must go to the meeting.Check out other people too.

After packing up her things and thinking about it, she sent Liang Shi a message: Are you okay in the hospital?I'm going to school, is there anything I can do?

Liang Shi immediately called and said, "Zisu, if you are free, shall we meet tonight?"

Guo Zisu also wanted to meet him before leaving, and immediately agreed: "Okay, just call me when you get off work."

Seeing that she readily agreed, Liang Shi said happily: "Let's go to Shijiyuan to have a buffet. After you go to the mountains, it's not easy to eat seafood. Let's try it tonight."

"Okay." His meticulousness made Guo Zisu very happy, but he quickly said cautiously: "You take Xiaomi, I will meet her too."

Liang Shi paused for a moment, then said, "She is on the night shift, why don't I ask her to ask for leave?"

Guo Zisu pursed her lips in thought, and said, "Then I don't want it. When do you get off work?"

Liang Shi said, "I'm an apprentice now, so I'm not sure when I'm off work. I'll be there before 6 o'clock."

Guo Zisu specially went to the barber shop to have her hair done, put on light makeup, and put on her favorite egg white cashmere coat in the style of a dress, with a chestnut fur scarf, and a pair of chestnut high-heeled boots , and set off happily humming a song.

Guo Zisu has been to Shijiyuan buffet several times before with his classmates, so he is familiar with it.She arrived around 5 o'clock, and knowing that Liang Shi hadn't come so soon, she went for a walk around the street and was going to the mountains. She still had too much reluctance to leave this city.She walked slowly on the streets when the lights were just on, and the fountains on the square, under the reflection of colorful lights, changed into strange patterns, which were beautiful and pleasant.

In the windows along the street, the ever-changing male and female models are graceful and graceful.Inadvertently looking at the people coming and going, they are all in a hurry, rushing to the warm lamp in their hearts.Among them were some beauties and handsome men, smiling lightly, talking on the phone, and walking towards commercial buildings and restaurants.There were also many couples, arm in arm, entering the cinema.

Guo Zisu suddenly remembered that he hadn't been to a movie theater for a long time.The last time I watched a movie in a theater, I still accepted the task of a university class teacher, so I had to watch that movie.The sisters and classmates who used to go to the theater together often dispersed as they grew up and graduated, and it was rare to get together.

Guo Zisu thought to himself, he must come here to watch movies and enjoy himself when he comes back from summer vacation.

"Zisu." A soft voice called from behind.

Suddenly looking back, I saw Liang Shi standing in the night wind and smiling gently at her, his bright eyes focused and soft.

Guo Zisu saw that he was neat and tidy, and his hair was much more stylish than when he was in Qingshi Village.Can't help laughing: "It seems that the hospital is really a place that changes people. You have only been working for a long time, and you feel calmer than before."

Liang Shi nodded and said, "The profession of a doctor really requires a quiet and calm heart."

"You still just run errands with the old doctor?"

"Basically. My most important thing now is to go to the dental department of the medical school as an audit student, get a schedule of their class, and follow the class every day. In addition, I study with Mibo or the old doctor. I am a little busy, because I am not only the most Basic skills need to be practiced, and advanced theoretical knowledge needs to be supplemented."

Guo Zisu listened with great interest, and said with some envy: "Liang Shi, I think you are very fulfilling despite your hard work, especially being able to return to school to attend classes. Pure, nice."

The two walked into the Shijiyuan restaurant side by side. There were all young people, each holding a plate, walking around, chatting while eating.

Liang Shi quickly found two plates and took Guo Zisu to choose dishes.There are all kinds of fresh vegetables on the dining table, as well as grilled fish, steak, lamb skewers and so on.

Guo Zisu picked up the tongs, picked up a little bit of each, picked out a few more fruits, and was about to go to the dining table.Looking up, Liang Shi still had nothing on his plate, and he walked around the restaurant with big strides.

Guo Zisu walked over, touched him, and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter with you?"

Liang Shi saw a lot of food on her plate, and said, "Why are you so fast? I'm still waiting for the seafood. The seafood here is slow, so I have to wait." He bit his lip and thought for a while, "Come on, let's Get rid of the things on your plate first, and pick seafood later."

Guo Zisu glanced at him, lowered his voice and said, "You're not so greedy, are you?"

Liang Shi smiled: "My plan is to let you eat enough seafood tonight. Anyway, you don't eat much, so you don't need much."

The two found a place to sit down and shared the food on Guo Zisu's plate.

Guo Zisu picked up a mutton skewer and put it in his mouth, and said, "How do you know I like seafood?"

Liang Shi was gnawing on a piece of steak with his head down, and replied: "I don't know, I came here to eat with Xiaomi a few days ago, and I thought the seafood here was pretty good, so I asked you to eat it."

Guo Zisu looked at the person in front of him who was absorbed in eating, and couldn't understand why he would never say anything that would make her happy, even if he knew it in his heart, but as long as he said it, he would still be happy.In this world, who doesn't like to hear lies to make themselves happy?

After Liang Shi finished eating the steak, he took the plate and left without looking at her.

Guo Zisu stared at him blankly, seeing him go straight to the dining table, picked up the tongs, and began to pick out food.Guo Zisu understood that he chose seafood.So quietly watching him busy.

Soon, Liang Shi came over with a plate of seafood. Guo Zisu looked up and saw that there were fried crabs, prawns, cuttlefish, starfish, clams, oysters, scallops and so on.

Liang Shi took the half-eaten plate in front of her to his side, put the seafood plate in front of her, and said carelessly: "Come, let's have a feast."

Guo Zisu was also not polite, and said: "Now I don't mind at all if you call me a good eater." He raised his chopsticks and picked up a large scallop and sent it to his mouth.

As soon as she swallowed it down her throat, she saw Liang Shi wipe away the dishes on her plate like a storm, and she was stunned.Immediately reached out and patted him, rolled his eyes a few times, and pointed to the plate in front of him with the other finger.

Liang Shi smiled naively, "Swallow it quickly, and be careful not to choke."

Guo Zisu stretched her neck, swallowed the stuff in her throat with a blunt sound, exhaled, and said, "You eat seafood, you took so much effort to pick it up, why don't you eat it?"

Liang Shi still smiled naively, "I'm afraid you'll feel sorry for this plate of leftovers, so eat them up." Then he picked up a fat prawn and put it in Guo Zisu's small bowl, "Eat it , Zisu, watching you eat, I feel like I am back in Chunhua's wooden house again, and I am very happy."

Guo Zisu said: "We haven't eaten seafood together at Chunhua's house, have we?"

"No." Liang Shi picked up a piece of cuttlefish meat and put it in his mouth, "As long as you are here, it feels right."

Guo Zisu nodded, "Well, last time I asked Reporter Wang to bring some dried cuttlefish to Sister Chunhua. When I see the minced meat in two days, he must have grown taller. Maybe he's too fat to walk."

"Hehe, look at your beauty." Liang Shi said disdainfully: "The power of dried cuttlefish is so powerful, minced meat needs to be worked every day, no matter how good the food is, you won't be too fat to walk."

Guo Zisu's jade-like eyes turned cleverly, and she gently tossed her shawl-length hair behind her head, raised her chopsticks in the air, looked at Liang Shi affectionately, and said mischievously, "How about we make a bet?"

"All right? How do you bet?" Liang Shi met her gaze and stopped the chopsticks in his hand.

"Winner's treat or loser's treat?" Guo Zisu asked with a smile.

"Of course it's the winner's treat." Liang Shi said without hesitation.

Guo Zisu laughed loudly, "It seems that you knew I won before you even gambled."

Liang Shi also laughed loudly, and said boldly: "I know that I must win, so the winner treats guests, at worst, I invite you to come here for a meal."

Guo Zisu shook her head repeatedly, stretched out her chopsticks to pick up a piece of sea oyster meat and stuffed it into her mouth, and said, "If I win, I will treat you here next time. If you win, invite me to watch a movie."

Seeing a gleam of light in Liang Shi's eyes that was fleeting, she immediately turned in her mind quickly, and then said: "I haven't been to a theater for a long time, so I'm thinking about it."

Liang Shi stretched out his chopsticks, picked up a big golden crab and put it in front of her, and said joyfully, "Yes, it's a deal."
