Vol 3 Chapter 445: Thin branches bear fruit
Li Duoyu parked the fishing boat and paid the administrator of Qingkou Pier two cents for the care.
So I took the shuttle bus with Xiaoying and Defa and went straight to the Rongqiao Restaurant in the town.
This is a three-story restaurant that integrates food, accommodation and entertainment. The decoration is also very good, not even worse than ordinary restaurants in the city.
Although many years have passed in Li Duoyu's mind, he still remembers it clearly.
During the days when smuggling was rampant, this restaurant was overcrowded every day, and the people who came in and out were all big bosses wearing suits and carrying gold watches.
Of course, there are also a lot of Yingying Yanyan women, and most of them come from the "thatched houses" in the neighboring county.
The women in that place are said to be the most beautiful in the entire province. Li Duoyu has also heard of it. It seems that an emperor from the Southern Song Dynasty fled here.
And a large number of his harem beauties and court ladies were scattered among the people, thus changing the genetic genes of the local people.
Back then, Brother Shui liked to come here the most. When the business in the town was good, he would have a big banquet and invite his brothers and Ma Zai to drink and dine.
Li Duoyu also had a few meals, all of which were all kinds of delicacies and game. He even saw bear paws several times.
In the past, what he envied most were those who could go to their room to "rock the boat" after drinking or eating.
After all, the thatched house is also close to the sea. In the past, when they did business, they were always on boats, so there was a saying of rocking the boat.
However, less than two years after the establishment of this Rongqiao restaurant, it encountered a "big rectification". Before the money could be made back, people followed and the restaurant was confiscated.
But after the smuggling industry was eliminated, who would come to a remote fishing town like Shangfeng Town? Originally, this restaurant was used as a guest house for the town committee.
But without customers, it became a burden, and in the end he had to contract out the restaurant at a low price.
In addition, Shangfeng Town is now vigorously developing fishery and breeding industries. Even those who come to discuss business will go to Qingkou Wharf.
No one comes to the town at all. Boss Huang, who contracted the restaurant for the past two years, is now filled with regret.
The accommodation is definitely subsidized, but fortunately, the restaurant has a supporting dance hall. The business has been good in the past two years, and the restaurant can barely survive.
Boss Huang, who has not made much money this month, finally welcomed this class reunion, and he smiled so happily.
After seeing Duoyu, Boss Huang immediately greeted him warmly: "Director Li, it's been a long time no see."
Li Duoyu smiled and said, "Boss Huang, business is good."
Boss Huang had a sad face: "Don't mention it, I will shed tears if I talk about it too much. If I can keep my capital every month, I am already thankful to God."
“Duoyu, you are the village director now. You need to come and visit us more often, otherwise I really won’t be able to carry on.”
“If I have the chance, I will definitely come.”
In the small lobby, a table was set up, and a woman about their age was sitting behind the table.
She is relatively petite and thin. She wears a printed shirt on her upper body, a plain pleated skirt on her lower body, and two simple earrings on her earlobes.
I can’t say how nice my temperament is, but my smile is really sweet and beautiful.
Beside her, there is a small blackboard with chalk written on it:
【Looking back again, ten years in a hurry】
【Reunion of Class 3 of 72nd Class of Shangfeng Middle School】
However, Li Duoyu could not find any information related to this female classmate in his mind. It was very likely that he had never seen her again after graduating in his previous life.
After seeing this female classmate, Zhang Defa looked excited: "Yao Xue, long time no see. You have changed a lot compared to before. You are much more beautiful now."
The female classmate, who was originally full of smiles, instantly performed a Sichuan opera face change for everyone. She didn't even look at Zhang Defa, but said hello to Zhou Xiaoying.
“Xiaoying, long time no see.”
Zhou Xiaoying smiled and said: "Long time no see, Yao Xue, you are really getting more and more beautiful."
"Really?"
Yao Xue looked at Zhou Xiaoying and said with envy: "No matter how beautiful she is, she is not as good-looking as you. She still maintains such a good figure after giving birth."
Zhang De was stunned. He was always praising others, but why did Yao Xueri ignore him when he praised her? But Xiaoying praised her, which made her happy.
This is too much.
Li Duoyu glanced at Zhang Defa, who was standing there, and couldn't help but shake his head. Just praise people for their good looks. Why would you point out celebrities who have changed so much? Doesn't that mean they weren't beautiful before?
There is 100% reason why this guy is still single. With his emotional intelligence, maybe Chen Wenchao can completely blow him up.
The two women met and immediately started chatting. Yao Xue looked at Li Duoyu from time to time, looking unhappy with him.
Li Duoyu smiled awkwardly.
Since I have no impression of her at all, I don’t know if I have ever done anything to feel sorry for her.
But according to Zhang Defa, this female classmate's appearance must have been average before, so he shouldn't have much chance of messing with her.
“I heard that your Duoyu family has become the village director, which is quite impressive.”
Zhou Xiaoying said modestly: "He is also lucky, so he was selected."
"That's pretty much it. When I found out you were marrying him, I was so angry that I didn't sleep for a week. He was so bad before, how could you even think of being with him?"
When asked about this, Li Duoyu also listened with pricked ears. He also wanted to know why Xiaoying chose to marry him in the first place.
Zhou Xiaoying looked at Li Duoyu with disgust: "It's not like someone is shameless, just like a dog-skin plaster."
Yao Xue snorted coldly: "I don't know who it was, who couldn't even write a love letter and asked Xiaoying to write it for her, and yet had the nerve to pursue Xiaoying."
“Haha”
Li Duoyu smiled awkwardly. How many people in the class knew about the love letter? Why couldn't they get around it?
Yao Xue pulled Xiaoying directly and said, "We haven't slept together for many years. Why don't we sleep together at night?"
Zhou Xiaoying asked doubtfully: "In the evening, will it be very late?"
“Zhang Jianhua, Chen Ziyi and Li Hou have prepared a lot of activities for this gathering, and they may have to stay overnight.”
“That’s it.”
Zhou Xiaoying wondered: "But my son is still young. If he doesn't go back, I'm afraid there will be trouble."
“It’s okay to let your parents-in-law take care of you for the night. We haven’t seen each other for so many years. I have a lot of things I want to tell you.”
Yao Xue directly took Zhou Xiaoying's arm and started acting coquettishly: "Xiaoying, just stay with me for one night. We used to live in the same dormitory. I don't dare to sleep outside alone. If you are here, I will feel relieved."
Hearing that she was in the same dormitory, Li Duoyu suddenly remembered who this female classmate was.
Sure enough, women have undergone eighteen changes.
It's no wonder that Zhang Defa would say such a thing. Yao Xue used to be quite small. Even though he was in junior high school, he was still like a primary school student.
Unexpectedly, after the hair grows and matures, it becomes quite beautiful. No wonder some people say that in junior high school, every girl who is not fully developed is a high-quality potential stock.
If compared according to the current comparison, Chen Ziyi is not much prettier than them, but in middle school, Chen Ziyi, who grew up early, surpassed them by countless ways. It seems that Xiaoying's transformation was completed in technical secondary school. In junior high school, she was just like a tomboy, not attractive at all.
Seeing that the two women were chatting happily, Zhang Defa interrupted inappropriately: "Yao Xue, it's not just us. Where are the classmates in our class?"
Speaking of this, Yao Xue hurriedly said: "By the way, you sign in first. Most of the students in our class have already arrived. After you arrive, there are only three or four left. Those who arrived early will go to the school auditorium." It’s over.”
After Li Duoyu finished signing, he glanced at the sign-in book and found that there were two familiar names on it.
At this moment, Yao Xue suddenly asked: "Agui and Ou Junliang seem to be from your village. Didn't he come with you?"
After hearing this.
All three people present were stunned. Zhang Defa frowned and said, "Yao Xue, don't you know what happened to Agui and Junliang?"
Yao Xue wondered: "What's wrong with him?"
Zhang Defa sighed: "I have been away for more than a year when I encountered a shipwreck, and Junliang is still in labor camp because of smuggling."
Yao Xue's smile disappeared again, and this time it became a little heavy: "If we exclude the two of them, there will only be two left. It seems that we can't come together this time."
Next, Zhou Xiaoying accompanied her to wait for the last two classmates, while Li Duoyu followed Zhang Defa to the middle school auditorium to gather.
After leaving Rongqiao Restaurant, Zhang Defa couldn't help but asked: "Duoyu, do you think Yao Xue is married?"
Li Duoyu frowned and said, "You don't start to be interested in others just because they are beautiful."
Zhang Defa hummed: "As long as I let go of my obsession with Xiaorong, any single beauty I see will be interesting."
Li Duoyu smiled and said: "It's amazing, but Yao Xue gives me the feeling that she must have been married."
“How is it possible? She looks quite young.”
Li Duoyu said seriously: "Based on my many years of experience, it would be difficult for the upper body of a thin person like her to reach that size if she is not married and has a baby. I see her face is a little haggard, and she feels like a child." One year old like this.”
Zhang Defa was stunned: “You can see this.”
“You, a single person, don’t understand. You have some experience. Only if you have it, can you know what it’s like.”
“Fuck.”
Zhang Defa instantly became decadent. The reason why he participated in the class reunion with such enthusiasm was to see if there were any young women of the right age.
I didn’t expect that I just saw a good-looking guy who is already married and has a baby. But it’s right when you think about it, it’s been ten years since he graduated.
If the female classmates were their age and had not yet married, they would have been pushed to death by their families.
Just when he was disappointed, Li Duoyu suddenly said: "However, it's hard to say, a petite girl like her might have a chance of bearing fruit even if she doesn't have children. "
Zhang Defa turned his head mechanically and looked at Li Duoyu in confusion. The use of "small branches bear fruit" to describe Yao Xue is really accurate. If he were a Chinese teacher, he would give this adjective 100% full marks.
Why did this guy suddenly become so literate?
“Then does she have a partner?”
Li Duoyu rolled his eyes at him: "I'm just analyzing. How do I know? If you want to pursue someone, just ask them yourself."
Zhang Defa’s mouth twitched: “You’ve been nagging me for so long and you just told me a bunch of nonsense?”
Li Duoyu said happily: "It's none of my business whether she has a partner or whether she has had children. Anyway, I have a wife and children."
“Your uncle’s.”
The two of them came to the school and told the guard that it was the reunion of the 72nd class, so they were let in directly.
Ten years later, I returned to my alma mater and found that the changes had been huge. The tile-roofed building where they once studied has now become the high school.
The school has built a new three-story teaching building. The playground used to be only as big as a buttocks, but now there is a track of more than 200 meters, as well as several basketball and volleyball courts.
There were many students taking physical education classes. Li Duoyu glanced at the wall in the corner of the playground and couldn't help but smile.
Unexpectedly, the wall he often climbed over was still there.
There are also more dormitory buildings.
There was no canteen at all before, and they all cooked their own meals. Now the school has converted half of the auditorium into a canteen.
Those students who want to cook by themselves do not need to make a fire themselves. They only need to wash the rice, put it in an aluminum box, take it to the water boiling room, and steam it in a steam box.
When Li Duoyu came to the auditorium, sure enough, all the students in the class were gathered there.
There is a stage in the auditorium.
At this time, someone shouted: "Zi Yi, you are from the song and dance troupe. Our class teacher is here today, please dance for us."
The good-looking woman said a little shyly: "I can't dance without music."
At this time, Zhang Jianhua, who had a slicked back hair, stood up and said, "Ziyi, whatever you want to dance, I can set the rhythm for you."
With the crowd cheering, the good-looking female classmate was pushed onto the stage of the auditorium.
“Come on.”
“Come on for a while.”
Chen Ziyi was somewhat reluctant to be carried up, but after glancing at Li Duoyu who had just arrived at the scene, she suddenly said:
“Okay, I’ll just dance a short section. This is our crew’s latest dance, “Red.”
The male classmate who just wanted to beat her up scratched his head: "Hong, which song is it?"
Chen Ziyi smiled and said: "Hong, it's a symphony. If you can't keep the time, I can dance it myself."
Even without music, when Chen Ziyi danced, all the students present were stunned.
For the first time, they knew that dancing could be so beautiful and that a woman's body could be so soft and light.
Zhang Defa was stunned on the spot: "I'll go, this Chen Ziyi is really beautiful."
Li Duoyu snorted. How could the woman he couldn’t catch up with after four years not be beautiful? Although he thought so in his heart, he said firmly:
“It’s really superficial. What’s the use of being beautiful? No matter how beautiful you are, it’s just a vase. The most important thing is what’s on the inside.”
"Come on, if you weren't with Xiaoying, I guess you would still be a licking dog now."
Li Duoyu said seriously:
“People need to be self-aware. Some women are beyond the imagination of our class. When looking for a wife, you don’t have to look for someone too beautiful. You need to look for someone who can live a good life. Forget it, even if I tell you, a single person, you won’t understand.”
“Duoyu, you really went too far today. You don’t want to help me introduce someone to you, but you still irritate me.”
Just as the two of them were having fun, a familiar voice came from behind Li Duoyu. A woman asked with a smile: "So, I should be able to live a good life."
Li Duoyu immediately changed his words: "Of course, the woman I am looking for is not only beautiful, but also knows how to live a good life. She not only keeps the house in order, but is also very prosperous. The most important thing is that I feel special if I can't see her for a day." I feel so uncomfortable that I can’t wait to be with her every day.”
Hearing this, Zhang Defa looked at Li Duoyu with great contempt.
Yao Xue, who came with Zhou Xiaoying, couldn't help laughing after hearing this.
“Xiaoying, when did you become so afraid of you when you have so many fish in your house?” (End of Chapter)
