1987 My Era

Chapter 244, Li Heng and Yu Shuheng (Subscribe!)

A little over half a bottle of Moutai, which the two of them drank together.

At first, Yu Shuheng only ate braised spareribs and lettuce, but later, when she saw him eating tiger-skin green peppers, she couldn't help but pick one up to try.

The taste was so spicy that she almost cried, and she quickly drank white wine to suppress the spiciness.

Li Heng smiled helplessly: "I wanted to remind you, teacher, that I put chili in it, but I didn't expect you to pick up your chopsticks so quickly."

Yu Shuheng said nothing, she pursed her pretty lips with the wine in her mouth, closed her eyes and tried to hold back her emotions. Elegance was engraved in her bones, and she didn't want to lose her composure in front of others.

What's more, the little boy in front of her is her student, and also someone her best friend entrusted to her.

Can't let him laugh at the joke.

It was not until a long time had passed that the spiciness of the chili subsided a little from the tip of the tongue. Yu Shuheng opened his eyes again and asked in a low voice, "Can people over there eat spicy food this well?"

Li Heng asked back: "Teacher Wang can eat spicy food, don't you know that?"

Yu Shuheng shook her head slowly: "She is not as good as you."

Then she asked, "Will eating like this affect my stomach?"

Li Heng said: "Well, it's not bad. The main reason is that we have been eating it since we were young, and our bodies have adapted to it. Of course, whether it has an impact depends on the individual's physical condition. In our area, many people have gastrointestinal diseases due to chili peppers. But chili peppers are addictive. Once people get used to eating them, it is difficult to quit for a while."

Yu Shuheng could understand. Later, she was eager to try it and picked up another tiger skin green pepper. However, this time she learned her lesson and rinsed it in tea. The taste was just right.

She praised him generously, saying, "I didn't expect that a simple dish of fried chili and garlic could go so well with wine. Your cooking skills are really good."

Hearing this, Li Heng deliberately slowed down his eating speed and gave her some tiger-skin green peppers.

As they drank, they drank another glass of white wine, and now both of them were a little drunk.

Especially Li Heng, he can drink beer normally, but seldom drinks liquor, let alone mix red wine and liquor, which has a strong aftereffect and is very intoxicating.

If the woman opposite him had not been his teacher and had helped him a lot, he would have stopped serving her and gone back to his bedroom to lie down.

After separating the last of the wine from the bottle, she took a short break and said, "Runwen is recovering very well. She wrote that she can eat, dance, and exercise again. The surgery did not affect her in any way."

"Really? That's great." Li Heng was happy to hear that.

Yu Shuheng nodded: "After all, she is still young, and her body functions are at their most vigorous. This kind of surgery generally won't have sequelae."

At this point, she suddenly raised her head, feeling drunk, and asked tentatively, "I've always wanted to bring her to Shanghai to teach. What do you think of this idea?"

Li Heng was stunned for a moment, then he understood the hidden meaning in her words. He was silent for a while and shook his head: "Teacher Wang will not come."

I tried to identify his facial expressions, but unfortunately, I was unable to obtain any useful information. Yu Shuheng stopped at the right time:

"Indeed, she is a very nostalgic person. Unless there are special circumstances, she will basically never leave Shao City in this life."

Li Heng agreed with this, picked up the wine glass and said, "Teacher, come on, one last drink, let's drink it."

Yu Shuheng picked up the wine glass and clinked it with it, then took a sip with emotion: "The last time I drank so freely was when I graduated from college. Runwen and I were about to separate, and we drank all night.

The other dormitories were all crying and reluctant to leave, but we two didn’t cry or make a fuss. We just kept drinking slowly until dawn, then we each packed up our luggage and left.”

Li Heng, who had experienced it once, felt the same way, "It's really free and easy."

Yu Shuheng put down her glass: "In fact, she could have been assigned to a better place, but she chose to return to Shao City to teach."

Li Heng asked: "Why?"

Yu Shuheng shook her head: "She didn't tell me the specific reason. The verbal reason was that being a teacher was her dream since she was a child."

Li Heng pondered for a moment and said, "Actually, for women, being a teacher is a very good choice. There are holidays and it is relatively easy and free."

"Yeah, almost."

This is also the reason why she entered the university to become a teacher. Later, she asked: "Tell me the story of Song Yuxiaohan."

"Ah?" Li Heng exclaimed, looking surprised: "Teacher, why are you curious about my relationship?"

Maybe it was because he drank too much, or maybe it was because the two of them could talk about anything after drinking, but Yu Shuheng let go of her outward coldness in front of him for the first time.

She explained: "I have never been in a relationship, but I have some yearning for it."

Hearing this, Li Heng was surprised again. He didn't expect that such a bookish and elegant lady had never been in a relationship, and he didn't expect that she would not hesitate to say that she had some yearning for him.

He leaned forward slightly, and with a burning look in his eyes, he started gossiping: "Teacher, you have such good conditions, why don't you talk?"

Yu Shuheng picked up a tiger-skin green pepper, bit off a small half of it, chewed it slowly, and swallowed it before saying:
"At first, Runwen and I didn't want to date. We felt that we were still young and should enjoy our youth first. Later, we didn't meet the right person. I have obsessive-compulsive disorder and would rather be alone than be with someone who doesn't suit me."

Well, I finally found the reason. It turns out that the two of them loved to play so much that they ruined their lifelong events.

In fact, this phenomenon is very common in later generations. You can see that many older single men and women are still alone when they are almost 40 years old. The problem lies in two points: being too playful and having too high standards.

But thinking back, she is only 25 years old, 26 years old in appearance, which is not old at all for her class. If she really wants to get married, with her conditions, there are countless men who are eager to climb up to her. It will only take a few minutes.

After pondering for a while, Li Heng estimated that the other party knew roughly how he felt about him, so he simply stopped hiding it and asked, "Teacher, who do you want to listen to first?"

Yu Shuheng said: "Song Yu."

"As for Song Yu, it's relatively simple. My feelings for her were love at first sight. It was the kind that lasted a lifetime, and I could never forget her afterwards." Li Heng recalled the day when they met in the corridor in the first year of high school, and his mind couldn't help but drift away.

Yu Shuheng didn't react on the surface, but she felt a little envious inside.

She actually longs for this kind of love, but unfortunately, after waiting for so many years, she has never waited for a man who can make her fall in love at first sight.

She held the chopsticks and asked, "So you never gave up pursuing her?"

Although this was not a very honorable thing to do, Li Heng agreed.

The night was as cool as water and eerily quiet. She stood up and drew the curtains in the living room, then sat back and said, "This feels much better. How is your relationship with Xiao Han?"

Li Heng put a piece of pork ribs in his mouth and said slowly, "My story with Xiao Han is a little complicated. The process of our acquaintance was not perfect. The first time we met was when we had a fierce quarrel over a stool in an essay competition, and the second time we even got physical."

Yu Shuheng asked curiously, "Who won?"

"She, uh, should I say they. She brought two little sisters to beat me up. My arms, face and neck were all covered with scratches. It was burning and painful for several days. It was during these two times that she did that. Although she was still as beautiful as ever, I didn't leave a very good impression of her. For a long time afterwards, I regarded her as a wild beast and didn't have much contact with her." Li Heng said.

This process of getting to know each other was completely beyond Yu Shuheng's expectation. "You are a boy, how can you beat three girls?" Li Heng smiled embarrassedly: "I am from the countryside and have been doing manual labor since I was a child. How could I really be defeated? It's just that there were many people around, and she was a girl, so I couldn't kill her."

Yu Shuheng looked at him meaningfully: "Isn't it because she's beautiful?"

Li Heng just drank some wine and ignored the conversation.

She asked, “What happened next?”

Li Heng said: "Later, it became a bit cliché. She, Chen Zijin, and my childhood friend became good sisters and appeared in front of me every day. Although we ignored each other, as the number of contacts increased, it was inevitable that we would turn hostility into friendship."

Yu Shuheng asked: "Who took the initiative?"

Li Heng said: "Her. After the mid-term exam of the second semester of the first grade of junior high school, the head teacher held a class meeting and moved the desks around the classroom, leaving the center of the classroom empty as a venue for cultural performances.

It happened that the teacher arranged Xiao Han and I to sit next to each other. While watching the performance of the classmates, she suddenly said to me, "Hey, Li Heng, give me half of the orange in your hand."

Yu Shuheng asked: "Is this the first time you spoke after the fight?"

Li Heng said: "Yes, we haven't communicated for more than half a year."

Yu Shuheng asked: "Did you give the oranges to me? What was your reaction at the time?"

Li Heng said: "I gave it to her. But I thought I heard it wrong at first, looked at her stupidly, and asked, "Where are your oranges?" At that time, each student in the class was given 4 oranges. I didn't expect her to say confidently, "I've finished eating them." Then I gave it to her."

Yu Shuheng thought for a moment and asked, "She ate all the four on purpose, right? She just wanted to find an excuse to talk to you and ease the relationship. If I'm not mistaken, she must have secretly fallen in love with you at that time."

You guessed it exactly right.

In her previous life, Xiao Han herself admitted this matter later, but Li Heng did not say anything and continued to acquiesce.

Yu Shuheng tonight is still the same Yu Shuheng, still as intellectual and beautiful, but she is no longer the same Yu Shuheng. Under the influence of alcohol, she talks a lot more than usual.

She asked, "Did Chen Zijin see what happened to Juzi?"

"have seen."

"Aren't you jealous?"

"They have always been friends and enemies. Quarrels and tantrums are commonplace. I am used to it."

Yu Shuheng used her detective brain: "I think they used to get along well, but since your relationship with Xiao Han eased, they've been arguing more often, right?"

Li Heng raised his glass, "I knew I couldn't hide anything from you, Teacher."

Yu Shuheng also raised her glass to indicate, "This isn't something hard to guess. Two women fighting for one man, so naturally there will be a dispute. But you are indeed very charming."

Seeing what he said, Li Heng didn't know whether to cry or laugh, so he just drank.

After taking a big sip of white wine, she moved her lips gracefully, "One last question, why didn't you go to Peking University? Why didn't you come to Fudan University? Don't tell me why your scores weren't high enough."

This is what Runwen has always wanted to know, so she took this opportunity to help ask.

Of course, she also has a desire to explore.

Why didn't you go to Peking University, but to Fudan? Can I tell you that if you want both Xiao Han and Song Yu, you have to conquer Xiao Han first, which will reduce the overall difficulty?
Since we've come to this point, Li Heng ignored Teacher Yu's eyes that were fixed on him and said calmly:
"There's no special reason. Whoever I pick up from them will make a lot of money. I'll just let nature take its course. I'll leave the choice to God."

Yu Shuheng thought about it and believed it. Then for a long time she returned to her normal state, becoming a taciturn woman, exuding a cold aura that kept strangers away.

If she hadn't been sipping wine and eating food, she would have thought she was facing a stone sculpture.

In silence, the liquor was finally finished. She stared at the empty glass for a long time, then broke the silence and asked softly, "Can you drink more?"

To be honest, Li Heng was already 7% drunk, his hands and feet were a little out of control, but fortunately he was still a little conscious. However, even though he was drunk to this extent, he didn't back down, biting his tongue and saying, "I'll sacrifice my life to accompany a gentleman."

"Then accompany me to my house to get some wine."

“He really drinks it!”

"drink."

The two of them stood up and walked towards the stairs. At first, everything was fine. Although her steps were slow, she was still steady. But when she reached the corner of the stairs, she suddenly stumbled and almost fell. Fortunately, Li Heng was quick to support her arm.

"Teacher, why don't you stop drinking?" Li Heng said.

Yu Shuheng didn't say anything, but just turned her head and looked into his eyes, staring at him intently.

After a short stalemate, Li Heng changed the topic and said, "There are still two bottles of beer left at home. I'll go get them. We can each have one bottle and then go to sleep."

In fact, there was still half a dozen beers left at home, all bought by Mai Sui and Sun Manning on their bicycles. But he didn't dare to tell her everything, because it was obvious that the woman in front of him was as drunk as he was.

Yu Shuheng looked at him for a while and agreed.

Leaving her there, Li Heng felt his way down to the first floor along the wall, turned on the light and went to the kitchen corner to look for wine.

1, 2, 3
After counting, there were still 7 bottles, and he really only took two bottles.

When he returned to the corner of the stairs, Teacher Yu was gone, but had slowly returned to the sofa on the second floor.

Li Heng bit off the beer cap and handed her a bottle, "That's all. It's all here."

“Yeah.” Yu Shuheng took the beer, clinked glasses with him, and then started drinking.

For the first time, I saw heroism in a graceful figure that was full of the scent of books.

Following suit, Li Heng also blew the bottle, but when the time came, he couldn't finish it in one go, so he drank it in three times with great difficulty.

After drinking, he shook the empty bottle and asked groggily, "Are you worried about something today?"

"No, no, I just want to drink." As expected, just as Li Heng expected, she drank too much red, white and beer, and her speech lost its former eloquence.

Putting down the beer bottle, Yu Shuheng tried to walk to the second bedroom by herself, but before she took three steps, her figure was shaking violently. At this time, she didn't insist anymore, holding on to the corner of the sofa with her right hand and barely standing up, and said slowly:
"Li Heng, help me go to the room."

"okay."

He wanted to say, "Help me up, I can't even stand on my own." But he bit his tongue, forced himself to walk over, supported her with both hands, and walked to the second bedroom.
