Rebirth at the end of seventy: my life I make the decision

H city is the capital of Z province. It is a very beautiful and prosperous city. I have worked and lived here for a whole decade, but these years, I deliberately avoid H city. Even if I have to come to the city for work, I only regard myself as a hurry visitor and lift my legs when I finish my work.

This time I came to H city to participate in the academic exchange at h Normal University. Finally, I slowed down my hurried pace and had the leisure to enjoy the city.

Today is the last day of this academic exchange. Tomorrow I will leave the city that once brought me a lot of embarrassment and sadness.

Several old students who got along well in middle school and worked in H city got the news that I came to H city to participate in academic exchange conferences. They invited me to get together for many times. It was difficult to be generous, so I took a taxi to Dechuan Hotel on the Bank of Xizi lake to get together with my old classmates and friends.

I came to this hotel once 20 years ago. Unexpectedly, the hotel is still there. Although the boss who is fat like Maitreya is old, he is still red, but he can't recognize me.

Today's hotel is very lively. I glanced at it in a hurry. It turned out that I was holding a wedding banquet here.

"Unexpectedly, after more than 20 years, this hotel is still so prosperous!" I couldn't help sighing as my old friend came to the box facing Xizi lake on the third floor and sat down.

I didn't expect that my sigh attracted the gossip of my old friends.

Lao Chen looked out of the box, slightly suppressed his loud voice and said, "the boss of this hotel is good at business. As you saw just now, the boss has a kind face of Maitreya Buddha. First, he is better than others!"

Professor Zhang is a gourmet. He always likes to see the essence through phenomena: "Business and harmony are very important, but I think the hotel can thrive day by day for decades. The most important thing is that the dishes of the hotel often push through the old and bring forth the new, but the taste and price are relatively popular. A hotel can stack new products without making people feel flattered. It's not simple!"

Other people agreed with me, but the old man looked at me with his eyebrows and eyes. Suddenly he said, "you visited here 20 years ago? Li Rui, you're not simple! I could only pass by here, smell the fragrance and swallow my saliva."

When the old man said this, everyone took a look at it, and I couldn't help stroking my forehead and sighing.

I don't blame these people for looking at me like this. I think Fang Mei killed her family's money in those years. Where can I come to Dechuan hotel?

No way, I had to explain two more sentences: "Lao Chen, remember Wang Xiuying?"

Old Chen frowned: "Wang Xiuying? Can you remember that she was the top student in the college entrance examination of Y county and the top five in the college entrance examination of Z province? Even if she is only unknown now, I will never forget! Not to mention that she is still a doctoral supervisor of Q University and the chairman of the famous Licheng firm!"

Speaking of Wang Xiuying, old Chen is like a family treasure. I just remember that old Chen was so interested in Wang Xiuying.

When I was in No. 1 middle school, because Fang Mei spoke ill of Wang Xiuying in private, Lao Chen also turned his face with Fang Mei. For this reason, I almost fought with Lao Chen.

Think of these past events, my chest will produce a trace of acidity.

"But what does this have to do with Wang Xiuying?" the old man looked at me suspiciously and asked, "don't tell me that Wang Xiuying invited your husband and wife to have dinner here! With regard to the relationship between Fang Mei and Wang Xiuying, I don't believe Wang Xiuying will invite you!"

Old age is an old classmate and alumni of Fang Mei and I from primary school to high school, and also a classmate of Wang Xiuying in high school for two years. For the gratitude and resentment between Fang Mei and Wang Xiuying, it is more clear and fair than my alumni who had never been in the same class with Wang Xiuying and was biased because of pursuing Fang Mei.

Speaking of eating here in those years, my face was a little hot. In those years, Wang Xiuying and his wife clearly invited Fang Jinsong's family. As a result, four families came to eat here.

But I really can't say such a shameless thing. I can only avoid the important with an embarrassed smile: "You should remember that Fang Mei's eldest brother used to be the chief security officer of General Li Zhenhai, Wang Xiuying's husband. That year, Wang Xiuying took her son and Wang Xiuying's brother back to their hometown for sacrifice. Her husband happened to come to Z military region on business, and the couple invited guests here. Oh, by the way, this yard is actually an industry under Wang Xiuying's name."

Although this last sentence is a bit of icing on the cake, it has successfully distracted everyone's attention.

Seeing everyone's attention turned to the yard and Wang Xiuying, I couldn't help but wipe a sweat and finally deceive me. The facts of that year were shameless to say!

We talked while eating. The past was mentioned one by one, but we all chose to avoid the name Fang Mei, which made my heart surge with an emotion called irritability for no reason.

Everyone is a middle school classmate. Even if we don't have a classmate, we are also alumni of the same year. Besides, Fang Mei and I have lived and worked in H city for ten years. Who doesn't know the broken things between Fang Mei and me. How can we avoid Fang Mei when talking about the past?

Of course, I also know that everyone is afraid that mentioning Fang Mei will embarrass me. Who makes me come and go in a hurry even if I have come to H city for many years?

At this time, I found that I was really childish and ridiculous in dealing with the relationship with Fang Mei. It was also that Fang Mei left too much shadow in my heart.

It's just that we have been divorced for more than 20 years. What if we divorced only yesterday?

There is a good saying: don't come to me again after divorce!

Fang Mei and I have nothing to do. Even if we meet again, can Fang Mei stick again? Even if Fang Mei still wants to stick it, can I let her stick it?

Such a thought is like being enlightened, and I feel that my previous behavior was really childish and terrible.

I smiled loudly, raised my glass and drank to my old friends. The depression that had been pressed on my mind for decades completely dissipated at this moment, and my mood had never been happier.

At this time, Professor Zhang, who hadn't spoken for a long time, suddenly opened his mouth: "by the way, I don't know if you have noticed the notice board in front of the hotel. The more I think, the more I feel that the bride is so similar to Fang Mei?"

"Hey, it's really nice of you to say so." the old man frowned and thought, echoing.

When I came over, I glanced at the notice board. I only knew that there was a wedding banquet in the hotel today. I didn't see what the new couple looked like, so I was crowded into the hotel by Lao Zhang and them.

I frowned and calculated what the Fangmei family might get married. I soon had a general guess in my heart.

Although I have avoided Fang Mei in circulation over the years and rarely go back to my hometown, the situation of Fang Mei's family will always spread to me more or less. After all, our two families are in Fangjia village, so it's hard to know.

This time, I didn't avoid it. With a faint smile, I said, "the dragon and Phoenix fetus of brother Fang Mei's family should be twenty-three or four years old this year. Since the bride is similar to Fang Mei, it's not necessarily that brother Fang Mei's niece gets married."

The old man was interested as soon as he heard it. He stood up and went out for a walk. When he came back, he gave everyone a positive answer: "the bride's name is Fang Yuan. I saw Fang Mei in the wedding banquet hall. She is now..."

At this point, the old man shook his head and didn't go on. He must not know what to say.

Although we all live in a city, we should avoid Fang Mei. When I think of the recent divorce between Fang Mei and me, I still have some regrets for these old classmates and friends. In order to find out where I go, Fang Mei caught who bites who like crazy, and almost offended all the old classmates and friends working in H city.

Old people are probably still afraid that I still have some friendship with each other. Otherwise, according to the old-age temper and virtue, Fang Mei would have been damaged. Where would she stay in Germany like this.

However, Fang Mei's life is good or bad. She can't catch the ripples in my heart. The past events dissipate with the wind. My heart is missing my wife and children. My beautiful and gentle wife is preparing to study for a master's degree. That is the source of my happiness, my harbor and my home!
