Deep green plum routine

Chapter 106

-six years later-

"Mr. Huang, I'm sorry, there is a traffic jam on my side, and I may be a few minutes late."

"It's okay, we just arrived, take your time, don't worry."

"I'm really sorry, I'll rush over there as soon as possible." After hanging up the phone, Gu Mian started running wildly with her bag in hand.Although the other person said "don't worry", it is a big taboo for them to let customers wait for them.

A year ago, Gu Mian, who graduated from a sports school, became a salesperson for a real estate company by mistake.

She is not familiar with real estate, and even less familiar with sales.But at that time, all the classmates around her were looking for jobs, and she was anxious, so she signed three parties in a hurry.

Gu Mian's original idea was to work in this industry first, so as to maintain her life.If you really can't do it in the later stage, you can find another job at that time.

Surprisingly, Gu Mian is like a fish in water at work.I don't know if it has something to do with her straightforward and sincere character, but the clients who talked to her trust her very much.Many customers have signed orders in her hands, and even recommended relatives and friends to come to her.

But in just one year, Gu Mian's performance has skyrocketed, and he has become the best salesman in the same real estate.

Hurrying to the agreed place, Gu Mian repeatedly apologized: "Mr. Huang, I'm really sorry for keeping you waiting."

The man called "Mr. Huang" looks gentle and elegant, and has an excellent personality.With a smile on his face, he comforted Gu Mian: "It's okay, we just arrived. By the way, this is my fiancee. Today I mainly want her to come and see the house."

Gu Mian looked in the direction of Mr. Huang's finger, and a somewhat familiar face appeared in front of her eyes.

"You are... Mian Mian?" The man looked at Gu Mian and asked hesitantly.

Gu Mian's eyes widened, and she shouted in disbelief, "Sisi?"

"It's really you," Xiao Sisi smiled, revealing Gu Mian's familiar dimples, "I thought I had mistaken someone."

Meeting an old acquaintance in a foreign land, Gu Mian couldn't help herself, she stepped forward and hugged Xiao Sisi: "Where have you been all these years? I can't find you no matter how hard I look."

"I've been in Q City." Xiao Sisi hugged Gu Mian back, and patted her on the back, "What about you, why are you working in Q City?"

"I went to university here, and I found a job here after graduation."

Seeing that the two of them had a tendency to talk for a long time, "Mr. Huang" interjected at the right time: "There is a coffee shop over there, why don't we go there and sit down together."

Gu Mian and Xiao Sisi also felt that the side of the road was not a good place to reminisce about the past, and agreed to his proposal.

Xiao Sisi let go of Gu Mian, pointed at "Mr. Huang" and introduced with some embarrassment: "By the way, Mianmian, this is my fiance, Huang Shuyi."

Gu Mian had a good impression of Huang Shuyi, and upon hearing this, she responded enthusiastically: "Hello, Mr. Huang, my name is Gu Mian, and I am Sisi's good friend."

"I know, Sisi often mentions you." Huang Shuyi smiled, "Sisi's friends are my friends, you can just call me Shuyi, there is no need to be so pretentious."

Gu Mian changed her words obediently.

When he arrived at the coffee shop, Huang Shuyi settled down Gu Mian and Xiao Sisi, excused that he had something to do, and left before paying the bill.

Gu Mian looked at Huang Shuyi's back as he left, and his impression of this person became better.She withdrew her gaze, looked at Xiao Sisi who was opposite, and suddenly didn't know where to start: "Sisi, have you been... all these years... okay?"

"It's pretty good," Xiao Sisi said with a faint smile on her face, she didn't look like she was lying, "It might have been hard in the first year when I first came out, but it got better later on, because I met my teacher. "

When Xiao Sisi escaped from home, she only had more than 200 yuan for her whole body.She took the train to City Q, which is adjacent to City C, but she encountered obstacles everywhere when she wanted to find a job—she was not yet 15 years old at that time, and no one dared to employ her.

Xiao Sisi ran out of the house in a burst of anger, only thinking about escaping from that place, and earning money to support herself in the future, but never thought that she would not even have the opportunity to earn money.

Standing on the street of City Q, holding the dwindling money in his pocket, Xiao Sisi felt flustered for the first time.

In the end, the proprietress of a private restaurant took Xiao Sisi in. Seeing her pity, the proprietress agreed to let her work as a waiter in the restaurant, and declared that she was her niece from afar.

The restaurant manages food and housing, and the monthly salary is only [-].Although the salary was low, for Xiao Sisi at that time, it was a timely help.

The restaurant has an average customer flow, only the meal time will be a little bit busy.In her free time, Xiao Sisi would read the textbooks she had brought out. Although she is struggling to make ends meet now, she still does not want to give up her dream of studying.

The teacher that Xiao Sisi said changed her fate appeared at this time.

It was already past nine o'clock in the evening, and there was no business in the restaurant.Xiao Sisi sat at the cash register of the restaurant and looked at the math problem, but got stuck at a step and couldn't get out.

She was so focused on the math problem that she didn't notice someone standing in front of her for a long time.She didn't find out until the man stretched out his hand and told her how to solve the problem.

Thinking of making customers wait for so long, Xiao Sisi was terrified.She put away the textbook in a hurry, and said incoherently: "Hello, are you paying the bill? What table are you at?"

The person who paid the bill was about 40 years old and wore gold-rimmed glasses.She has a kind face and a gentle aura that makes people feel reassured.Seeing that Xiao Sisi was frightened, she still smiled and comforted her: "It's okay, I won't pay the bill now, I want to look at your question again."

Xiao Sisi had never met such a person before, he hesitated and did not move.

The man continued: "I'm about to find a solution to that question just now, take it out and let me have a look, okay?"

Seeing that the other party didn't seem to be joking, Xiao Sisi nervously took out the textbook.

That person found the question that Xiao Sisi didn't know, and actually told her the steps to solve it.Her thoughts were clear, but Xiao Simao suddenly understood after a few words.

Xiao Sisi was overwhelmed by that person's knowledge, and asked her a few other questions that he didn't know.The man was also very patient and explained to her one by one.

The two of them talked one by one, listened to the other, and discussed selflessly in front of the cashier counter of the restaurant until the person accompanying that person called her away.

After that, that person often came to this small restaurant, sometimes with a group of people, sometimes alone.Every time she came, she had to communicate with Xiao Sisi, or give lectures or chat.

Xiao Sisi could feel that she was harmless and was willing to talk to her.

During the conversation, Xiao Sisi knew that the person was Li Wanyi, a math teacher in No. [-] Middle School of Q City.She is local with a son who is in high school and a daughter who died unexpectedly two years ago.

Xiao Sisi refused to explain her situation to Li Wanyi at first, and insisted that she was the distant niece of the proprietress of the restaurant. Because her family was poor and couldn't afford the tuition fees, she took a break from school and came to help.

However, in the subsequent contact, Xiao Sisi's inner defense was broken by Li Wanyi's sincerity little by little, and she finally told her the truth.

Li Wanyi asked Xiao Sisi: "Do you still want to go back to school?"

Xiao Sisi pondered for a while, then nodded: "I think so."

Li Wanyi only said one word: "OK."

Li Wanyi didn't come to the restaurant for a long time after this time, Xiao Sisi thought it was because he said something wrong that made her unhappy, so he didn't dare to take the initiative to ask her the ins and outs, just secretly looking forward to her arrival every day, again and again disappointment.

After more than half a month like this, just when Xiao Sisi was giving up hope, Li Wanyi appeared again.

Along with her appearance, there was another piece of news that couldn't have been better for Xiao Sisi at the time: Li Wanyi won Xiao Sisi's qualification to transfer to No. [-] High School.

"The teacher knows that I have a strong self-esteem. She said that she lent me temporarily to pay my tuition fees and living expenses. She also introduced me to tutoring work, and she taught families with obedient children and generous parents. In fact, I know that if it wasn't for her, this kind of It's my turn to work. I don't know how many of the bonuses given by the parents are contributed by her." Thinking of these things in the past, Xiao Sisi is still moved, "It is the luckiest thing in my life to meet a teacher."

After listening to Xiao Sisi's experiences over the years, Gu Mian was also filled with emotion.Xiao Sisi was lucky to meet her teacher among thousands of people.But Gu Mian didn't dare to imagine, if Xiao Sisi hadn't met her teacher, how would she have come here these years.

Xiao Sisi's mouth was a little thirsty, and he picked up the coffee in front of him and took a sip: "I've been talking about me, but I haven't asked you yet. How did you keep Q City to work? Where are Aunt Xiao and Xiaojin?"

Hearing the two people Xiao Sisi mentioned, Gu Mian's eyes darkened for a moment.She smiled and said in a natural tone as much as possible: "Maybe it's because I'm too tired to raise me. My mother went to the Paradise of Elysium in advance."

Xiao Sisi couldn't hide the shock in her eyes, she took Gu Mian's hand, said apologetically and sadly: "I'm sorry Mianmian, I don't know about this... Alas, Aunt Xiao is such a nice person, why did she do this?"

"It's okay, it happened nine years ago, I've accepted it a long time ago." Gu Mian looked at the mother and daughter passing by outside the window, and said, "As long as I still think about her, she will always be in my heart."

Nine years ago, when Xiao Sisi did some calculations in his mind, he asked, "Then how did you get here these nine years?"

"I'm fine," Gu Mian said, "My mother left me a large sum of money, and even contacted my biological father, probably to find someone to take care of me. But I didn't follow my father, and kept talking to Zhang Grandma and Xiaojin live together."

Xiao Sisi asked: "Grandma Zhang and Xiao Jin are also in Q City? Are they okay?"

The smile on Gu Mian's face froze a bit: "They are not in Q City, but in C City, they should be living well."

Xiao Sisi grasped the point keenly: "Should?"

Gu Mian let out a "hmm", lowered her head and pretended to drink coffee: "I haven't seen them for a long time."

Xiao Sisi asked cautiously: "What's wrong? Did something happen?"

"Actually, it's nothing." Gu Mian looked up and smiled, "It's just that my grandma found out about my relationship with Xiaojin. I don't want grandma to be sad, and left after Xiaojin's college entrance examination."

Xiao Sisi knew the relationship between Gu Mian and Mu Jin, and was not surprised when Gu Mian said that she and Mu Jin were in a relationship: "Gone? Did you tell Xiao Jin before you left?"

"No, I can't say it." Gu Mian whispered, "Because of my affairs, grandma was so angry that she was hospitalized, Xiaojin was overwhelmed with work, and the atmosphere at home became very heavy. If I go to talk to Xiaojin at this time Saying I want to leave is like forcing her to make a choice, I don't want Xiaojin to be in a difficult situation, and I don't want to be so selfish."

"But how do you know that Xiao Jin will be in trouble? What if Xiao Jin never thought about being separated from you from the beginning to the end, and you just left without saying a word, what will she do?"

Gu Mian was stunned.After leaving for so many years, it's not that she didn't think about "what would happen if I didn't leave at that time", but she never thought about whether Mu Jin wanted her to leave?

She wishfully believed that her departure was well-received.Such an ending is good for her, for Zhang Suqin, and for Mu Jin.

Xiao Sisi looked at the stunned Gu Mian, and sighed: "Mianmian, I'm not you, and I don't like to judge what you do. But I think that falling in love is a matter between two people. Before making any decisions, you must You should discuss it with your significant other, instead of making a decision in the name of being good for the other party. Because you are not the other party, and you don't know whether the decision you make can really make the other party 'good'."

Gu Mian faintly felt that what Xiao Sisi said was right, but thinking of the scenes she saw when she sneaked back to City C two years ago, she became firmer in her mind: "I can't say what I did was right, but I think, At that time, my departure was the most appropriate choice for everyone."

"From the perspective of a bystander, your departure is appropriate. But for the parties, this is not necessarily the case."

Seeing that Gu Mian was still ignorant, Xiao Sisi continued: "The Huang Shuyi you met just now is my boyfriend and my teacher's son. I have been very close to my teacher's family for so many years, and I can be regarded as half of her. Daughter. When I first got together with Brother Shuyi, I received a lot of criticism. Everyone said that the teacher had bad intentions and took care of me to raise children and brides for his son. What’s more, they directly said that Brother Shuyi and I were incest.”

"During that time, I was very painful. It was okay for others to comment on me, but I didn't want the teacher's family to suffer these criticisms because of me. In order to make other people shut up, I broke up with Brother Shuyi on the grounds of 'falling in love with someone else'. At that time Brother Shuyi was driving, and when he heard me say that we wanted to break up, he was distracted and bumped into the guardrail on the side of the road."

Recalling the scene at that time, Xiao Sisi still held his heart: "It's lucky that brother Shuyi only suffered a little injury and was discharged after staying in the hospital for a few days. I told him the real reason why I broke up with him. That’s right, he said something to me at the time, which I remember until now. He said, “The harm caused to me by those people’s criticism is less than one ten-thousandth of the harm caused by you breaking up with me.”

"So Mianmian." Xiao Sisi looked at Gu Mian, "I hope you can tell all this to Xiaojin, I don't want you to miss happiness because of misunderstanding."

Gu Mian lowered her head in silence, and after a while she whispered, "But there are already other people around Xiao Jin."

"When did it happen? Are you sure it's true?"

"It's true, I saw it with my own eyes."

Xiao Sisi was silent for a moment: "Okay, don't take what I just said too seriously. Our two situations are different, and I shouldn't use my experience to ask you."

Gu Mian said: "It's okay, I know you are doing it for my own good."

After that, Xiao Sisi and Gu Mian tacitly avoided the topic of Mu Jin.The two chatted a lot about other people and things, and they didn't end their chat until Huang Shuyi called to say that they had arranged dinner at Mingtang Hotel.

Huang Shuyi had dinner with the two of them. Gu Mian had a good impression of Huang Shuyi, and after a meal, he admired him even more.

After dinner, Huang Shuyi drove Gu Mian home with Xiao Sisi, looking at the headlights going away, Gu Mian was both happy and sad.

Xiao Sisi looks very happy, where is Mu Jin?Is she just as happy?
