Chapter 58
Chapter 58
July 7, Wednesday, Lion City, cloudy to thunderstorm.
It has been a week since I returned to the Lion City, and the third wedding is still in full swing. Yan Shouzhen has returned to the busy days before, not going home at noon, and working until the evening before returning to the villa. Then he found me in the musical instrument room, took me to run around the garden, sweated all over, and helped me complete the task of exercising every day.
So I have been looking forward to the rain in the evening, so I can avoid running.
Lion City is a country with a lot of rain, especially in midsummer, the pattering rain always falls more than ten times a day, but unfortunately it doesn't last long, after a while, he hurried away, like a naughty child who has done something bad, see you When the lord came after him with a whip, he ran away without a trace.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, a big dark cloud pressed down from the sky, covering the musical instrument room in darkness, pulling me back to the real world from the harp's strings.
I was excited for a while, such a big dark cloud, if it rains, it should last a little longer, right?
If I can make it past 7 o'clock, and the cemented ground in the garden is filled with water, I can escape the catastrophe of going for a run today!
A melodious piano music sounded, and that was the ringtone of my mobile phone.
I know it was Yan Shouzhen who called. Every time it rains and thunders, when he is not by my side, he will tell me to go back to the bedroom. The sound insulation there is very good, and it is covered by artificial scenery. The man-made scenery of the sky, even if the weather outside is full of wind and rain, the inside is still blue and sunny.
After taking out the phone, Yan Shouzhen's name was displayed on the screen.
I pressed the answer button, and before he could speak, I said very consciously: "I see, I'll go back to the bedroom right away."
He chuckled in satisfaction, said a few words of love to me, and then added another warning: "Before I go back, don't answer anyone's phone call."
I:? ? ?
Could it be that my mobile phone number was leaked again?
Since Xue Qing and the secret marriage incident were exposed, those media reporters did not know where to get my mobile phone number, and they called in every now and then, saying they wanted to interview me, but after I refused, they changed their strategy and started calling directly. , I think even hearing a few words from my mouth is enough for them to make a big fuss.
I was so annoyed that I changed my phone number.
Fortunately, I don't have many contacts in my mobile phone. After sending a group message, I finally got the peace I wanted.
I replied "Okay", and not long after I returned to the bedroom, the pouring rain poured down outside.
Vaguely accompanied by terrifying lightning and thunder.
I switched the man-made scenery to the picture of Dilianhua, and the whole wall showed the bustling spring scene of a hundred flowers blooming and bees surrounded by butterflies.
Then I turned on the TV screen that occupied half of the wall, and clicked on the concert record I entered, and the familiar golden color of Music City appeared on the screen immediately!In the hall, the performance of the ensemble was broadcast on a clear screen, and the one who led the movement with his hands flexibly on the black and white keys of the piano was my uncle.
This was my uncle's debut performance. At that time, he was still very young, his slightly closed eyes revealed the enthusiasm and confidence unique to teenagers, his obsessive eyes were immersed in the world of jumping notes, and his whole body was full of the temperament of an artist.
Just as I was fascinated by it, my cell phone rang again.
I thought it was Yan Shouzhen calling again, but after grabbing the phone, I realized that it was Yan Shouzhen.
I was stunned, and stared at the word "li" behind for a long time before I was sure that it was really not Shouzhen.
Why did Yan Shouli find me?
I have only met him a few times, but every time we meet, I always feel that he looks at me with a sense of sarcasm, and inadvertently, his pair of examining eyes will vaguely glance at me. On my body, it seems that I am a person with evil intentions, and one day I will always show my fox's tail.
Although Yan Shouzhen has told me not to answer other people's calls until he comes back, it can be said that Shouli is his younger brother, and he should come to me only if he really has something to do.
So I pressed the answer button.
Me: "Hello?"
There was no sound from there. I thought it was a misdialing, so I said "Hello" again.
Yan Shouli filled my eardrums with an irritable and angry voice: "Hey what, I don't know it's me!"
I:……
"Don't think that you can pretend to be dead if you don't talk! Yan Shounuo got into a fight with someone in the college. Your husband is busy. If you have an excuse not to go to the college to cooperate with the teacher's education, are you also busy? Not necessarily! I said it! This year will not It’s up to me to keep my promise, even if she kills someone in the academy, I won’t go!” Yan Shouli crackled and bombarded my ears like venting, expressing the resentment and dissatisfaction in his heart at the moment Reached the pole.
I:! ! !
"Keeping promises and fighting?" I grasped the point and quickly asked, "Are you all right? Why is she fighting with others?"
"Where do I know what she is doing to fight with people again?!" Yan Shouli continued to scold her, "Fighting is fighting, and even losing! I have never seen such a nasty one! Look, your husband I feel ashamed to go to the college to meet the teacher! That's why I pretended to be busy with work and wanted to dump her to me!"
I:……
Sometimes I feel that Yan Shouzhen loves his younger sister very much. He will ask her grades, test her homework, teach her how to draw, and buy her what she wants. She called Qin Jinhuai last time , he would scold her for educating her, and occasionally he would turn a blind eye when he got into a big disaster, turning a big problem into a small one, and turning a small one into a small one...
But sometimes Yan Shouzhen is very impatient with this spoiled younger sister, especially when she recently got angry again and left the tutor and the nanny who took care of her daily life, Yan Shouzhen simply threw her away to a private contractor The combined dormitory is similar to the high school dormitory in Huaguo, with a cafeteria, a dormitory auntie, and access control time. There are a few students of the same age living in the small dormitory.
No matter how much Yan Shounuo cried and protested, he remained indifferent.
Yan Shounuo is famous for her bad temper, but I didn't expect her to fight with her classmates.
And listening to the meaning of Shouli's words, fighting has become a common occurrence? !
Since both grandma and grandpa are teachers, I know that it is not easy to be a class teacher.
I remember that in the second year of high school, a boy who didn’t like studying was transferred to the class. He usually skipped classes, didn’t do his homework, and made troubles in class... These were still within the controllable range of my grandma. I talked to him in my spare time. Criticizing and criticizing his bad habits did not delay the time to go home for dinner.
However, a week before the end of the term, the boy had an argument with a sports student from another class, which later escalated into a fight, both sides were injured, and the quarrel was quite sensational.
That day, the two students who were fighting were taken to the Moral Education Department. Their parents rushed to the school one after another. Grandma and the head teacher of the sports students were also around. They didn't have time to go home for dinner at noon. I went back to the office and took a few mouthfuls of the lunch I brought, and then went back to the Moral Education Department to continue mediating the dispute between the parents of both parties about compensation.
I also thought that the relationship between Yan Shounuo and me has eased a lot now. Although he still doesn't talk to me very much, there is no longer any hostility in his eyes.
A few days ago, after returning to the villa, she quietly hid at the door of the musical instrument room and listened to me playing the piano quietly. I was immersed in the notes of the piano, but I really didn't hear any movement outside the door.
It just so happened that Yan Shouzhen got off work early that day, and when he went straight to the musical instrument room to find me, he bumped into Yan Shounuo and asked her if she also wanted to learn the piano, but she ran away awkwardly.
In terms of emotion and reason, I should replace Yan Shouzhen and, as Yan Shounuo's parent, go to the college to find out about the situation.
After finishing talking with Yan Shouli, I hurriedly called Yan Shouzhen and told him about Yan Shounuo.
"Didn't I tell you not to answer anyone's calls?" Yan Shouzhen probably regretted not emphasizing that I should not answer Yan Shouli's calls, and said helplessly, "I am rushing to her academy, don't worry, it's okay Stay in your room and be obedient."
I knew he was lying to me, because I heard a voice on the phone, it was a messy dispute, some resource assessment, some project deployment, and I knew that he was still in a meeting in the Orchid Headquarters building, saying that he was rushing Go to the Academy that keeps promises!
When I walked out of the bedroom, there was a loud rumbling sound outside the house that seemed to explode in my ears.
My heart was trembling, my scalp was numb, my hands and feet were cold, and I almost turned around and went back to the bedroom.
But thinking that Yan Shounuo may be staying alone in the moral education department and being scolded by other parents, and the teacher next to him is also in a dilemma because of the absence of Yan Shounuo's parents. There is no way to sit idly by when my children are out of school.
Especially Yan Shouzhen is really too busy right now, I have the obligation to go to Yan Shounuo's school temporarily for him.
After getting out of the garage, I got into the Aston Martin luxury car that Cao Weiqing gave me as a meeting gift. The navigation linked the address sent by Yan Shouli, took a deep breath, patted my cold hands, and drove Drove towards the destination.
Thunder roared and heavy rain poured down. The orchid flowers all over the mountain were blown to this side by the strong wind, and a large piece of delicate and beautiful petals were beaten to the muddy ground by the merciless wind and rain.
I don't need to look in the mirror, I also know that my face must be very pale now.
Every time when the thunder exploded above my head, I would be terrified and want to retreat.
The lightning that split the dark clouds came with the ferocity of thunder, and every time it came, even the ground trembled.
I am really afraid of the rumbling thunder.
But thinking that I can relieve my worries by keeping my promises, my whole body is filled with great courage, but is it just a thunderstorm?Every year it spreads its sense of presence all over the world, and today is just the first time it shows off its desire to express itself. It’s nothing to be afraid of, and I’ve never done anything bad. It won’t hit me... …
Constantly comforting myself, I drove the car down the mountain safely, and the thunder in the sky gradually subsided, leaving only a few dull sounds hidden in the gradually dissipating dark clouds. Crossbow Zhi did not show his majesty.
For the first time in my life, I secretly celebrated that the thunderstorms in the Lion City came and went without any fetters.
Fortunately, the traffic in the Lion City is convenient. Many people travel by subway, but very few drive. Coupled with the thunderstorm weather, there are fewer cars on the road.
Half an hour later, the wind and rain stopped, and I arrived at Yan Shou Nuo's college safely.
But there was still a layer of cold sweat on his forehead.
It took me a while to recover, and I couldn't believe that I had overcome the fear of thunder and lightning that I had been afraid of for so many years!
The shadow of keeping promises and admonitions appeared in my mind. If he knew, he would praise my bravery in a meal!
Feeling a little proud, I dialed Yan Shounuo's homeroom teacher Yan Shouli, and a majestic female voice came from the phone. She seemed to be able to contact "Yan Shounuo's late parent" with a sigh of relief. On the phone, he sternly reprimanded me.
I hastily apologized and listened to her whining as I filled out the visitor log.
"Yan Shounuo doesn't fit in, your parents know that, she doesn't usually talk to her classmates, but today in class, she suddenly got into an argument with some girls. It's one thing not to be a teacher at all, After a few words of quarreling, she started to fight first, scratched with her nails, smashed with a stool, you said she was a girl, why didn't she just..." The head teacher said in pure English.
She might have wanted to say the word "education", but thinking of the Yan family's influence in Lion City, she stopped talking embarrassingly.
I knew that Yan Shounuo was surly, but I really didn't expect her to be so violent.
"Can you tell me what's going on?" I also asked in English, knowing the cause and effect of Yan Shounuo's fight, so that I could have a clear idea.
"In the first session in the afternoon, the teacher is in Chinese class, and the text is "Zou Ji satirizes the king of Qi and accepts advice"," she suddenly said the text in Chinese, and continued to speak in English, "The teacher said that when Mr. Xu was beautiful, , I just quoted a lot, and mentioned an idiom, which is "Appearance is like Pan'an". "
It is difficult to present the artistic conception of "Looking like Pan An" in English, so she had to switch to Chinese again, and then continued to speak in English: "So many students asked how beautiful Pan An is, and whether there is Xue Qing and beauty. Answered, saying that she should be as beautiful as Xue Qinghe, but Yan Shounuo suddenly said something, she said, she has seen people who are as beautiful as Xue Qinghe, and they are much more beautiful than Xue Qinghe! Students will not do it You know, more than half of the female students in the class are fans of Xue Qinghe, so of course they are very angry. These girls have always been at odds with Yan Shounuo, and when they heard that she slandered their idols, they started arguing like this... "
I:! ! !
It just so happened that the school bell rang in the sky. I asked for the address of the Moral Education Office and hung up the phone in a hurry.
Groups of young students poured out of the classroom. They were playing, talking and laughing, and seemed to be very satisfied with the weather after school was over after the rain.
When I met me head-on, there was a moment of sluggishness on the face full of smiles, and the mouth that was speaking just forgot the words below.
Most people who meet me for the first time have the same expression, and I have become accustomed to it.
The college is very big. I asked for directions several times before I found the Moral Education Department on the fourth floor.
As a parent for the first time, I was still a little nervous, so I couldn't help but took a deep breath, forced myself to calm down for a while, and then raised my hand and knocked on the door. After getting permission from the inside, I pushed the door and went in.
So, I saw a room with expressions similar to those of the students I had just met face to face.
Except keeping promises.
She widened her small eyes, as if she couldn't believe that I would appear in the moral education department of the college.
Then she pouted, and stubbornly turned her head away, not looking at me.
I saw a few red and swollen nail scratches on her cheeks, neck, and back of her hands, and I felt an inexplicable pain in my heart.
This silly girl.
Looking at those female students who also had nail scratches on their faces, they felt scared, angry, angry, and powerless.
Although the wounds on their respective bodies were not very deep, and the blood that came out quickly solidified, they were all girls with tricks after all. If the nails of both sides were longer, stronger, and the marks deeper, it would be impossible to destroy each other. It's too much!
What a grudge!
I held Yan Shounuo's hand, and apologized to all the parents present and the injured girl, as well as the head teacher and the moral education director, without being humble or overbearing.
The students who were fighting were all ashamed and lowered their heads in shame, but they couldn't help but look at me from the corner of their eyes, and their eyes were full of surprise that couldn't be concealed.
The parents obviously also learned the reason for their children's fights from the head teacher, and they thought their children were at fault, so they took their daughter's hand and apologized to Yan Shounuo and me.
The homeroom teacher and the moral education director originally believed that Yan Shounuo was withdrawn and unreasonable, and said that they had met someone more beautiful than Xue Qinghe, which caused such trouble. After seeing me, they realized that they couldn't stick to this idea up.
When I left the moral education room, I saw Yan Shounuo raised her little head high, as if she had just won a battle.
