"Teacher, Happy New Year!"

Seeing Wang Runwen coming over, Li Heng, who was sitting loosely, immediately straightened his body and greeted kindly: "Have you eaten dinner yet? Why don't you eat something together?"

Don't look at this brainless guy Zhang Zhiyong who is against the sky and the earth, but he has always been very respectful to teachers. This is not, the whole person stood up with a "swoosh", very restrained.

For Zhang Zhiyong's overreaction, Wang Runwen found it funny, signaled him to sit down first, and then asked Li Heng: "Are you treating?"

Li Heng thought in his heart that I am treating a wool thread, the living expenses in his pocket are less than ten yuan. If he treats, how will he live this month?

Drink the northwest wind?

But for the sake of face, he said very freely: "That is natural, it's just that the egg fried rice is too simple, teacher, don't dislike it."

Then, without waiting for the teacher to speak, he turned and shouted for the boss to serve another bowl of egg fried rice.

"Good! Please wait, it will be here soon." The boss responded happily.

The two sides were too familiar, Wang Runwen didn't be polite, wiped the stool with her fingers, and after feeling it was clean, sat down on Li Heng's right hand.

She glanced at the luggage on the ground and asked: "It's already this point, you just came from home? Is there a car?"

Li Heng answered yes, and then briefly introduced the situation on the road.

Wang Runwen raised her wrist to look at her watch and said casually: "It's off work today, there's no way to sign up, why don't you stay overnight at my place tonight?"

"Pfft!" Suddenly hearing these absurd words, the egg fried rice in Zhang Zhiyong's mouth spit all over the floor, his heart trembled, and he almost cried! This is what kind of tiger and wolf words!

How did the old man hear it?

Could it be that Liu Yejiang is not spreading rumors? Is what he said true?

You two... you two...!

This guy felt that he knew a big secret, and he would definitely be chopped into pieces by Li Heng to feed the dog when he turned back.

Seeing Zhang Zhiyong lowering his head and not daring to look at himself and Li Heng, Wang Runwen, who understood, smiled and explained: "It's not the school's house, but the old house in the city.

Someone passed away downstairs, and he was not even 30 years old. You two are young, and your blood should be full, help me suppress it."

It turned out to be superstition!

Li Heng, who was calm on the surface but equally nervous in his heart, secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He was just subconsciously looking at the fullness, thinking wildly:

What to do? What to do?

The teacher is so straightforward, am I forced to follow?

Or tear off the face, rise up and resist, and swear not to follow?

Li Heng collected his mind and asked: "What floor does the teacher live on?"

Wang Runwen said: "Second floor, I originally planned to stay overnight in the city tonight, but when the sun set, I suddenly felt that the house was a bit gloomy, so I came to school."

This is her real experience.

Turning the TV volume up couldn't calm her down. She sat on the sofa alone and looked around, and the evil thoughts in her mind were constantly growing.

Li Heng instinctively wanted to ask, why not let her family move in to suppress it?

But the next second, thinking of the teacher's unfortunate experience, her parents divorced and each had a new family, Li Heng agreed readily.

Asking for help from the two, Wang Runwen rushed to pay for the egg fried rice, and then the three took the bus to the city at the school gate.

The road is not far, and it takes thirteen or fourteen minutes to take the bus to arrive.

The community is a bit old, the buildings are generally not high, and the highest is only four floors.

When Li Heng followed in, he saw at a glance that a shed was built downstairs, with wreaths and white funeral couplets outside, gongs and drums inside, and monks chanting scriptures.

The strange thing is that there is no crying.

Passing the shed, going up to the second floor, just entering the door, he couldn't help but ask: "How did he die? Not even 30? Still setting up a spirit shed?"

In the customs of their hometown, those who died before 30 are generally full of resentment, known as the young Yama, no dojo is set up, and the body and ashes are not allowed to enter the house, and they are directly buried in the graveyard.

The English teacher sighed: "It's also a poor man, suffered an innocent disaster, and was accidentally hacked to death on the way back from the cigarette factory in the middle of the night."

Li Heng asked: "Then why didn't you send it to be cremated?"

The English teacher answered: "Already cremated, the box is placed in the spirit shed."

Talking to this, this topic stopped here, and the two tacitly didn't mention it again.

After changing shoes, putting luggage, and washing hands from the bathroom, Li Heng found that this guy Zhang Zhiyong was staring at the photo frame on the coffee table.

Not finding the English teacher in the living room, he asked: "Old Yong, what are you looking at, so fascinated?"

Zhang Zhiyong, who was immersed in the world of photo frames, was startled, and then urgently beckoned to him, lowered his voice and said obscenely: "Come and see, so beautiful!"

He originally thought this brainless guy was talking about the English teacher when she was young. When he took the photo album and looked at it, he realized it wasn't the case at all.

This is a graduation photo of the two.

On the left is the English teacher, with a bright smile.

The woman on the right is also smiling, but at first glance, Li Heng understood why the brainless guy was absent-minded just now?

Although wearing a bachelor's uniform, the dress is not gorgeous, simple, but the thick bookish atmosphere on her body can be clearly smelled through the photo frame, which is a rare beauty.

Just when the two were leaning together to appreciate, a voice came coldly from behind: "Beautiful or not?"

The quick-mouthed Zhang Zhiyong didn't react for the first time and blurted out: "Beautiful! Beautiful enough to bubble, I want to marry her as a wife."

After saying it, the brainless guy turned his head and saw a smiling face, immediately blushing and lowering his head, rubbing his hands helplessly, wishing to dig a hole and drill in.

Reaching out to take the photo frame from Li Heng's hand, Wang Runwen looked at the person in the album and cherished:

"Her name is Yu Shuheng, my best friend in college, and now she is a teacher at a university."

After saying that, she didn't forget to tease Zhang Zhiyong, "She is very popular, and her family background is not bad. If you want to marry her, you have to work hard. The first step is to get into a good university."

Zhang Zhiyong was so ashamed that he ran to the bathroom in a panic, under the guise of going to the toilet, but actually escaping.

Hearing the door "bang" closed, Wang Runwen turned to Li Heng: "Compared with Chen Zi Jin, who do you think is more beautiful?"

This is clearly mocking people!

Li Heng rolled his eyes, sat on the sofa, pillows his head with both hands, and didn't answer.

Wang Runwen put the photo album back on the coffee table and asked curiously: "Chen Zi Jin went to the capital, do you still have contact now?"

Li Heng still didn't answer, everything is in silence.

Wang Runwen seemed to understand, crossed her arms, and comforted: "There are fragrant grasses everywhere in the world. Giving up on you is her loss.

With your external conditions, as long as you enter university, you are like a dragon entering the sea, and you can pick flowers."

Li Heng wanted to argue: Teacher, you misunderstood.

But thinking of the cold eyes of the Chen family towards him in his previous life, he swallowed the words to his lips.

It's too early to say these things now, he is waiting!

Waiting for the news of "To Live"!

It is said that bitterness comes first and sweetness comes later. These days he has been bitter enough, he is looking forward to the sweetness after becoming famous.

Everyone has vanity, everyone pursues fame and fortune, everyone hopes that others will look at themselves highly. Even if he is a person who has lived two lives, he cannot be vulgar about this point.

Calculating the days in his heart, "To Live" has been mailed for several days, and it is almost at the magazine office,

Feedback should come soon.

Thinking of this, his heart was surging inexplicably.

He knew that he had been suppressed for too long. From the village, from the Chen family, from his parents and sisters, from the classmates, he needed a channel to release his emotions.

Li Heng said to her: "Teacher, maybe there will be letters mailed here in a few days, or someone will call you to find me, please help me pay attention, this is very important to me."

Wang Runwen listened half-understood, "What letter? What phone call?"

Everything has not yet settled, Li Heng didn't dare to say too full, smiled and opened his mouth: "Let me sell a pass first, you will know when the time comes."

Her gaze stayed on him for a while, Wang Runwen asked: "Is it the landline number of my school residence?"

Li Heng said yes.

Wang Runwen promised readily: "Okay, I'll pay attention during this time."
