Dong Qiangqiang's Story of Leaving Germany

"What good thing?" Dong Qiangqiang was really curious: I called Lao Bai just recently, but the other party didn't say a word. The two of them had gone through so much before. Normally, Lao Bai would not hide any good things from him, but then he thought again. Whether it is Lao Bai's freedom or not, it's ridiculously self-indulgent to think so.

"Boss Bai must have made a fortune with so many calls." He teased, "It seems that I need to emphasize to Boss Bai the allusion of 'Don't forget each other'."

Tong Lele smiled without saying a word, the unconcealable joy on the brows could be easily seen even by people who didn't know her well, Dong Qiangqiang knew that she was not the kind of person who would be overjoyed when she got an advantage, it seems that this good thing has a good origin.

"Did you... have it?" Dong Qiangqiang was really happy for Tong Lele, "If you say that people who make music are efficient, boys and girls?"

"Hey, what are you thinking?" Tong Lele pretended to be angry and blamed, "Are you stupid in reading?"

"Hey," Dong Qiangqiang rubbed the back of his head apologetically and smirked, "It seems that I guessed wrong..."

"It's something else, he will tell you himself later."

"By the way, you said that you would return to China to meet your parents in October, did you meet later?"

"No." Tong Lele shrugged, the light on his face suddenly dimmed, and said quietly, "Originally, I bought the air ticket, but it was refunded before the flight."

"Retired?" Dong Qiangqiang was puzzled, "Why?"

"A friend of Lao Bai temporarily transferred him a large group, but he was reluctant, so he didn't return."

Although Tong Lele said it lightly, Dong Qiangqiang somehow felt in his ears. It seemed that Tong Lele didn't agree with Lao Bai's approach. If your friend is in trouble, there may be nothing you can do about it. Otherwise, if you push it this time, they won’t give it to you next time.”

"It seems that men understand men," Tong Lele sighed softly, "So then I thought, let my parents come to Germany."

"Ah, the two elders came to Germany? When did it happen? October? November?" After hearing this, Dong Qiangqiang faintly felt that something was wrong.

Tong Lele seemed to have heard his thoughts, and explained: "It's not that they are specially asked to come and see Lao Bai. They are traveling by the way, and it happens that October is also the best tourist season in Germany."

"That's nice."

"But people are not as good as heaven, and my dad's visa has not been approved."

"Tourist visa is also refused?" Dong Qiangqiang was a little strange when he heard it, but he thought of the answer after a second, "Because your father is getting old?"

Tong Lele looked aggrieved: "Old Bai also thinks so, but my dad is only 72, and he looks young."

"It depends on the visa officer's mood that day. He may be afraid that your father will come here in the name of tourism, and then disappear..."

"My dad is missing, so what will my mother do? I really don't know what these Germans think." Tong Lele was indignant, "It's as if the brain has flooded."

"A visa is a matter of luck. There is no reason or logic to speak of. Then what happened later? Your mother came here alone?"

"No, my mother doesn't come here when she gets angry, so we are going to go back to China for the Spring Festival. We can even take the parents to see the New Year. It is best to solve the wedding photos and the banquet at one time, but I guess the wedding photos are still there. If you have a chance, you can’t even book a hotel for a banquet, I heard that now BJ’s wedding and banquet must be booked in a hotel 3-5 months in advance, I don’t know if it’s true or not.”

"Are you going to hold a banquet in China? Many newcomers feel that hosting a banquet is too troublesome, and they have replaced it with a honeymoon trip." Dong Qiangqiang thought to himself: Tong Lele is the first marriage after all, so it is normal for her parents to have such a request.

Tong Lele nodded solemnly: "My dad said that he only had one requirement: there must be a banquet, and he doesn't interfere with honeymoon travel or anything, but if it's held in Germany, my parents who went out with me before will be in vain, so I can only Do it back home."

"That's the reason." Dong Qiangqiang echoed.

"It will definitely be the same when you marry Du Lan in the future..." Tong Lele was about to continue talking, when the window of the Mercedes-Benz business car slowly lowered, a head poked out, with a pair of fashionable sunglasses on the bridge of the nose, and he pointed at Dong Qiangqiang Beckoning him to come over.

Seeing Dong Qiangqiang's eyes drifting to the side, Tong Lele knew what was going on, and pouted: "The emperor has summoned you, why don't you hurry over to receive the order?"

Dong Qiangqiang also laughed. He walked to the Mercedes-Benz car in three steps and two steps at a time. He patted the door and looked at the people in the car.

Lao Bai in the driver's seat has a neat cropped hair, and there are faint layers of green stubble on his chin, like a grass sprout in early spring carefully poking his head out of the ground after a winter of dormancy. The pilot with a brown fur collar The leather jacket paired with the blue and white plaid shirt looks neat and tidy, more energetic than the last time I saw him.

"Hey, the car has changed, and the crowd has become more crowded..." Dong Qiangqiang looked back at Tong Lele, who was talking and laughing with He Yangjin, and joked, "Where did Boss Bai get rich recently? Don't forget that he is still poor." Brothers..."

For some reason, as soon as he met Lei Lanting, Lao Bai, Tong Lele and others, Dong Qiangqiang wanted to say a few words. He hadn't spoken so happily for a long time.

"I just got off a tour yesterday, in order to bring the group rental." Lao Bai took off his sunglasses and put them in his coat pocket, "What are your plans for later?"

"First wander around the city, visit the Christmas market, and then go to the public kitchen in the university student dormitory to eat. The kitchen has been rented. There is a TV and a karaoke machine in it. You can make dumplings, eat, watch movies, chat, Fireworks, whatever you like, all the shopping is done. Go back to the city center to watch the fireworks show at the Christmas market before zero o’clock, and when the fireworks are over, it’s almost time, drive back to the B&B, I’ll stay with you tonight.”

"Du Lan didn't come?" Lao Bai was a little surprised.

"She just came here a while ago, and she can't leave now. The exam is about to take place, and the review tasks are heavy, so she won't come. I'll call her later."

"Then let's not go to eat after shopping in the market. Everyone said on the way just now that they want to visit the place where you live now, and I will give you your gift by the way, and then go to the kitchen after watching. The rest is as you said. question."

"It's okay to go, then I'll say hello to the landlord later. Although the old lady is very nice, I'm afraid she won't let you in without saying hello in advance."

"Not as good as the (landlord) in Hannover before?"

"Yes."

Lao Bai put a cigarette in his mouth, and handed one to Dong Qiangqiang. Dong Qiangqiang waved his hand with a smile. : Acronym for Deutsche Bank)?"

"It's about 500 meters away from us, and it takes about 10 minutes to walk through the Christmas market."

"Let's go." Lao Bai said and got out of the car.

Except for Lu Shan, everyone else is an old man who has stayed in Germany for many years, and the Christmas market has long lost its novelty.Lao Bai suggested that everyone go shopping separately, and gather at the parking place after an hour, but Lu Shan insisted that everyone go shopping together. Lu Wei rarely expressed the same idea as his younger brother. The narrow cobblestone-paved road leads towards the home of the Christmas market in the city centre.

Thick and dense clouds with a hint of lavender in the gray-blue color weigh heavily on the heads of everyone, making people feel that they are within reach. There is a chill in the air, and the cold wind blowing from all directions blows the colorful flags on both sides of the street. The snowflakes that were still floating at noon were unknowingly taken back by God. Before five o'clock in the afternoon, the place without lights was submerged in semi-darkness, just like the place where Christmas lights were hung. two worlds.
