1987 My Era

Chapter 250: A mother and daughter who fell in love at first sight, a match that I would never have thought of (Subscribe!)
Li Heng walked closer with doubts and called her "Auntie" out of courtesy.

As expected, he was brought into Building 25 by the smiling Shen Xin.

Shen Xin was very meticulous and recognized at a glance that the ocarina in his hand was his daughter's. Shuheng had bought three in total at that time.

One of the daughters often uses it.

One remains unopened on the shelf today.

The third one disappeared not long ago, and unexpectedly fell into Xiao Li's hands. From this, she became more certain of some of the things she had guessed.

Don't ask her how she knows so much?

Because she would come to Lushan Village occasionally when she was free, and every time she came, she would help her daughter with housework, including wiping the dust off the musical instruments.

Seeing the aunt's gaze lingering on the ocarina for two seconds, Li Heng was speechless. Isn't this too much of a coincidence?

How do you explain this?
Explain that this ocarina was given to Mai Sui by Teacher Yu, and I just used it for fun, and I happened to come back from Yanyuan with the teacher tonight?

It seems to be all true, but it may not work.

Somehow, I feel like the misunderstanding has deepened further!

After walking across the yard and into the house and pouring a cup of hot tea for Xiao Li and his daughter, Shen Xin hurried to the kitchen, saying that she was going to heat up the cold midnight snack.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Heng turned to Teacher Yu with a pleading look.

Yu Shuheng took two sips of tea in succession, then put the cup down and put her hands behind her back to casually gather her lazily scattered black hair so that she could have a midnight snack later.

She pretended not to hear someone's anxious look, and after fixing her hair, she went to the bathroom to wash her hands and face.

Li Heng followed and stood at the door of the washroom. He quickly glanced in the direction of the kitchen and asked in a low voice: "Teacher, is there a misunderstanding? Let's share the information. I can't stand Auntie's enthusiasm."

Yu Shuheng smiled when she heard his words, but said nothing. Instead, she asked him if he wanted to wash his hands.

Li Heng walked in hesitantly, washed his hands, took the new towel she handed him, wiped his hands, and said thank you.

The midnight snack was very rich, including beef brisket in clear soup, rose soy sauce chicken, salt-roasted mantis shrimp and green vegetables.

There was even a dish of stir-fried pork with green pepper.

At a glance, Li Heng understood that his aunt had definitely put a lot of thought into this evening and came well prepared.

And it was directed at him!
What he could think of was also thought of by Teacher Yu, but the latter remained silent and just sat down and started eating.

Seeing her daughter so cold and not even greeting Li Heng, Shen Xin was confused, but she didn't think too much about it for the moment. Instead, she entertained the "guest" on behalf of her daughter.

Shen Xin first served him a bowl of beef brisket soup: "Xiao Li, Auntie knows you are from southern Hunan, but don't think this beef brisket has no peppers, but it tastes very good, you try it."

"Oh, ok, thank you auntie."

It is not advisable to hit a smiling person. Li Heng didn't want to offend the person, so he had to try the taste.

Ok?
The taste is surprisingly good, fresh but not greasy, and has a light fragrance. Judging from his experience as a foodie, this is definitely made by a master chef.

"How is it? Is it to your taste?"

“Delicious, better than I thought.”

"Then eat more later. You look a little thin. You need to replenish yourself."

"Well, don't worry, Auntie. I'm a foodie. I won't be polite if there's something delicious."

Seeing that Li Heng was busy eating while struggling to deal with his mother, Yu Shuheng smiled imperceptibly but did not get involved and remained an outsider.

As they chatted, halfway through their midnight snack, Shen Xin suddenly asked, "Does Xiao Li have two older sisters?"

Li Heng was stunned.

Just one sentence revealed too much information. Could this aunt have investigated herself?
If so, what happened behind the scenes that made the other party investigate himself?

This is a question that is worth pondering.

Because Aunt Shen looks like a wealthy housewife with a noble air. It is impossible for her to be so bored as to pay attention to a boy whom she has only met once.

There must be a reason for everything.

Li Heng looked at Teacher Yu again, but still got no response.

He didn't give up and tried to lightly touch the other person's right foot with his toes under the table, but still no result.

Li Heng replied: "Yes, there are two older sisters up there."

Shen Xin asked with concern: "Are you used to studying in Shanghai?"

"Fortunately, I had some problems with the food at the beginning, but now I'm much better." He said truthfully.

During the conversation, surprisingly, Shen Xin did not ask too much about his family, nor did he examine his ancestors. The whole process was just a simple chat, casual chat, which made him relax a lot.

After having supper, Li Heng found an opportunity to say goodbye and fled from Building 25, saying it was too late.

Grandma is a bitch!
Mom is passionate.

My daughter is as cold as ice.

There is such a huge difference between the mother and daughter. Could it be that they are really biological children?

Rows of question marks appeared in his mind???

But they do have one thing in common: they are difficult to get along with.

It’s tiring and stressful to get along with Teacher Yu.

It’s even more tiring to get along with my aunt, for fear of saying something wrong.

As soon as Li Heng left, Shen Xin, who had been kind and gentle just now, calmed down instantly and asked her daughter, "Why didn't you talk to the man you chose the whole night?"

Yu Shuheng put down her chopsticks and said, "I just took a nap."

Shen Xin narrowed his eyes, "Just take a nap? You gave away the ancestral jade pendant while you were sleeping?"

Yu Shuheng asked, "What do you like about him?"

Shen Xin said: "Although he comes from the countryside, I am quite satisfied with his appearance, talent and conversation. Our family is not short of money, but we have never produced a great writer. He can write "The Original Scenery of Hometown" across fields, which is quite new. I listened to the videotape at the welcome party for half an hour. He deserves the title of "outstanding person". "

Yu Shuheng said: "He is 7 years younger than me."

Shen Xin said: "For a family like ours, this is not a problem."

The mother and daughter faced each other for a long time. Yu Shuheng asked, "Did you send Aunt Cheng away?"

Shen Xin seemed to see through her daughter's thoughts: "If you want to use Li Heng to fool me, then I tell you, you are making a wrong calculation.

Without Aunt Cheng, there are still Aunt Zhao and Aunt Sun. You are in good condition, and there are many people who like you. Your father has always supported me in this matter.

Besides, if I let out a little hint about Aunt Cheng, she would come at me again when she smells the fishy smell."

The reason why Shen Xin was so concerned was because of the jade pendant and the black wool sweater.

Especially the lines on the left chest of the sweater were exposed, and she automatically imagined a scene: Xiao Li and his daughter were playing with each other and they used too much force, or played for too long, and the tip of his teeth hooked out the thread.

Yu Shuheng felt as if she was shooting herself in the foot.

Her original intention in the morning was to use Li Heng to send away the plague god that had been pestering her for many years. Unexpectedly, the old plague god was only sent away temporarily, but he became the new plague god.

For a moment, she regretted revealing Li Heng's identity as a writer.

But the next second, she put away the regretful thought. If he was an ordinary college student, her mother would not believe that she would sleep with him, nor would she like him. Aunt Cheng could not solve the problem at all.

After calming down, she said, "Have you ever thought about this? Li Heng is so talented, how could there be no women around him?"

Shen Xin organized her words: "Without talent, just based on his face, many young girls will automatically rush to him. Mom is an experienced person, you don't need to use this trick to scare me.

It is said that "Surprise comes from lack of experience". Generally speaking, the opposite sex met in school days will gradually lose their appeal as men grow older and their social status changes.

They tend to be more inclined to find a soul mate who is compatible with them both emotionally and professionally. In this regard, I have great faith in my daughter. "

Hearing this, Yu Shuheng's eyes were half calm and half depressed. After a while, she stood up and prepared to go upstairs.

Shen Xin asked from behind: "Where are you going?"

Yu Shuheng didn't even turn her head: "Rest."

Shen Xin pointed at the dishes on the table and said, "Please clean up the dishes yourself. Mom just suddenly remembered something and has to go back home in a hurry. If you are afraid tonight, go sleep across from me."

After saying that, Shen Xin didn't even give her daughter a chance to argue. She picked up the bag on the sofa and walked out the door.

Yu Shuheng paused, half turned around, and watched her mother leave without saying a word.

The mother and daughter have been together for more than 20 years and have always thought that they understand each other well, but reality has taught them a vivid lesson:
The mother had not expected that her daughter, who had always been indifferent to the opposite sex, would sleep with her own student.

The daughter was even more confused. Her mother, who was extremely powerful outside, would one day find a way to send her away. Not to marry into a big family, nor to an extremely outstanding peer, but to a young boy who had just entered college.

The direct reason is: Li Heng is an outstanding person.

The indirect reason is: I slept with him last night.

Yu Shuheng had everything she wanted since she was a child. She could almost call the shots, and people around her were more accommodating to her, so she rarely lied.

Because there is no need to lie.

But she never expected that she would get herself into trouble by telling a lie on a whim in the morning, and it was a trap that was hard to refute.

I originally thought that my mother looked down on Li Heng, so she was so confident in revealing his identity as a writer, in order to make the lie more real.

After all, no one is a fool. If Li Heng had no outstanding qualities, how could she sleep with him?

But the sad part is that her own mother actually fell in love with him! She fell in love with Li Heng, who had no background and was only 7 years younger than her.

Who can I talk to to explain this?

After standing there quietly like a sculpture for about 10 minutes, Yu Shuheng finally came to her senses and walked up to the second floor.

It has been a while since I last spent the night at home, and I felt very complicated for the moment.

After wandering at the entrance of the corridor for a while, she overcame her psychological anxiety and went straight to the study, where she read books and newspapers as usual.

The reason why she has a scholarly temperament is, firstly, due to her family training since childhood, and secondly, she herself loves reading, literature and art.

She has read all three books written by Li Heng, and because of her best friend Runwen, she always reads them first.

It's just that she has a rather cold personality and is destined not to show it in front of others.

The fake Taoist priest had not returned yet, and there were only two houses with lights on at the end of the alley. Coincidentally, Li Heng and Yu Shuheng were both in the study, reading.

The difference is that whenever Li Heng reads a book, he can quickly transcend reality and immerse himself in the world of the book.

Yu Shuheng, on the other hand, depends on her mood. When she is in a good mood, she reads efficiently, quickly, and with deep insights; but if she is preoccupied with something, she tends to be distracted.

No, she was like this tonight, constantly indecisive:

I'll find all the letters Runwen wrote to me this year and read them one by one. From the lines, I can once again feel the changes in my best friend's heart.

It took her more than an hour to read more than 20 registered letters. Sometimes she would ponder them carefully over and over again, pondering Runwen's contradictory and anxious emotional journey.

Her eyes rested on the last word of the last letter, and Yu Shuheng suddenly felt a little emotional: If it weren't for Runwen, she would never have had any personal interaction with Li Heng.

She was the teacher and he was the student, that was all.

Even though Li Heng was a writer, even though Li Heng created "The Original Scenery of Hometown", she was at most like other teachers in the school, listening to legends about him after dinner and being surprised that the school had produced such a talented person.

There would not be the current dilemma at all.

With so many thoughts in her mind, Yu Shuheng finally put all the letters back into the drawer. Then she subconsciously raised her head and looked through the window at the little boy opposite who was bent over the desk and writing furiously.

After a long time, she walked out of the study, sat on the sofa, picked up the landline phone on the coffee table and began to dial skillfully.

Transfer to Shao City.

"Ding ding ding" her fingers moved quickly on the number keys, and when she entered the area code and phone number, she stopped suddenly.

It stopped above the "井" key and didn't go down.

After a while, she put the receiver back and gave up dialing.

She stared at the phone for a while, then got up, opened a bottle of red wine, poured herself half a glass, and then leaned against the wine rack and drank slowly, taking small sips. She didn't think about anything, but felt her mind was full of things.

After one glass of red wine, she poured another.

Halfway through the second cup, she returned to the sofa again, picked up the landline and dialed a number. This time she didn't call Shao City, but Chen Siya's hometown.

"Jingle Bell"

"Jingle Bell"

While waiting, the call was finally connected, and a voice came from the other end: "Hello, hello."

"Auntie, it's me, looking for Siya."

Yu Shuheng's voice is very recognizable, soft and gentle like jade. The other party asked, "Is it Shuheng?"

"Correct."

"Wait a minute, Siya is downstairs."

"it is good."

After a while, Chen Siya answered the phone, "What do you want to talk to me about so late?"

Yu Shuheng answered the question irrelevantly: "When will you come back?"

Chen Siya replied: "Tomorrow. Why, are you afraid of being alone?"

Yu Shuheng said: "No."

Chen Siya smiled: "If you are afraid, just go to Li Heng's house. It's not like you haven't slept there before. You are familiar with the place, so why are you so reserved?"

Yu Shuheng was silent.

Without waiting for a reply, Chen Siya asked, "Could it be that Xiao Han is here? Is it inconvenient?"

"No, I just want to find someone to drink with." Yu Shuheng said.

"Drinking? You can drink, Li Heng. He can drink more than me. You are going too far." Chen Siya said.

After she finished speaking, she felt something was wrong and asked, "Did you have a conflict with Li Heng? Are you unwilling to go?"

"No."
