Thirty-four, let's talk!
Wu Zichen is the capital city on the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month.?????

To be honest, he didn't want to come back at all, even if he was back for the New Year. In Huai'an Mansion, there was a mighty and domineering boss and a relaxed and comfortable life with his boss. In the capital, there was only cold and indifferent and the mocking and rolling eyes of relatives and friends.
But he had to come back because participating in the year-end ancestor worship activity is the most important collective activity for the men of the Wu family in Penglai. You can not eat the New Year's Eve dinner, but you must not participate in the ancestor worship activity. This is the routine of the Wu family. During the winter vacation, he dared not come back to participate in the ancestor worship activity? Unless he wanted to betray the monk and cut off the relationship between father and son.
In the past few days after returning home, Wu Zichen felt physically and mentally exhausted. The huge courtyard house was filled with strange eyes. His cousins who were intimate in the past also avoided him like they were hiding from the plague, for fear of having some connection with him. This made him feel breathless. He could only sneak out of the house in the name of traveling, wander aimlessly around the alleys of the old city, and then dragged his tired body to take the bus home at the latest. Although it was very tiring to wander outside, at least the people around him would not respond with strange eyes and disgusting expressions, which was enough to make Wu Zichen feel extremely satisfied.
Twenty-eight, hand over noodles.
The 28th day of the 12th lunar month is the day when the customary noodles are prepared to steam buns in the north, and Wu Zichen is still wandering around the streets and alleys. As the Chinese New Year approaches, the city is filled with joy and joy of bidding farewell to the old and welcoming the new. The streets and alleys are still laughing and fighting, which also makes Wu Zichen feel very happy. While he was holding up his camera and preparing to take a few photos, his right eyelid suddenly leapt wildly. He put down the camera and turned his head, and saw two familiar guys standing three or four meters behind him looking up and down.
Sometimes the memory of the body is more direct and reliable than the memory of the mind. Although Wu Zichen can no longer remember the names of the two of them, the vague pain from the muscles and bones all over his body has warned him: the two people in front of him must have had a deep communication with their bodies with their fists and feet before. Wu Zichen asked tentatively: "What are you doing?"
"Why should I call you Wu Tingyu, Wu Lubi, or Wu Xiong?" Zhang Zichen, who is slightly taller, tried hard to adjust his facial muscles, trying to make an amiable smile, but unfortunately the bruises and scars on his face turned all his efforts into vain, and his expression even seemed more ferocious and weird.
"It doesn't matter what you call it, the name is the code name anyway," Wu Zichen didn't know what they wanted to do, but it would never be to chat with him calmly and reminisce about it. So he said to himself: "Do you have something to do? If nothing happens, I won't chat with you anymore. I'll go back early. I just can't sleep in the morning and come out for a walk. Look, I haven't brushed my teeth yet!"
Zhang Zichen had no choice but to find out: "Our boss wants to invite you to have a simple meal and talk about it by the way. I wonder if I can enjoy my face?"
"Can you not be proud of your face?"
"Can't!"
Wu Zichen shrugged helplessly: "Then do I have any choice? Since you are kindly invited, I am so disrespectful to accept it, so I have to obey the orders rather than respect!"
With Zhang Zichen and Liu Wenci's attentive companion, Wu Zichen came to the famous barbecue in the Zizhuyuan branch of the capital. After drinking several cups of tea, the "boss" they called came late. Although it had not been seen for more than three years, Chen Gongzhe's appearance changed a lot, and the traces left by the fight a few days ago made Wu Zichen feel a little unfamiliar, he still recognized who the person was at a glance!
When Chen Gongzhe met, he greeted and said, "Old classmate, how are you doing recently? I haven't seen you for many years. Can you still recognize who Chen is?"
Wu Zichen nodded without saying anything. But his heart was already overturned, and his hands holding the teacup were trembling slightly: Yes, I haven't seen each other for many years, but how could I not recognize who you are? You are my first love boyfriend, although this kind of love is a secret love and a taboo love. But how could I forget you left such a heavy mark in my heart, body and even in my life experience?
After sitting down, Chen Gongzhe continued, "Brother Wu, Chen was young and ignorant, poorly thoughtful, extreme, and rude, which caused you great trouble. Every time he thought about it over the years, he felt very regretful! Today he invited you to dinner, just to apologize to you, and also asked you to be a large number of people, so that you should not care about the sins Chen had committed before. I wonder if Brother Wu can forgive me?"
Wu Zichen held the teacup tightly, and the heat in the teacup rose, making his facial expression blurred. After a long time, he whispered: "The ancients said: 'Don't tell me what happened, don't advise me, and don't blame me for the past." So many years have passed, why should you mention it again? Besides, I made mistakes first, and everything later was just my own fault. Why should you regret and apologize?"
Chen Gongzhe was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "I didn't expect that Brother Wu was so open-minded and generous, but Chen seemed a little pretentious and not good enough! Since that's the case, then we won't tell the story of our own study and life after we parted. How about it?"
Seeing Wu Zichen's face hesitation, Liu Wenci also advised: "The so-called 'The brothers are here to overcome all the disasters, and they will laugh at each other and eliminate their grudges'. I haven't seen each other for a long time. It's rare to get together during the Chinese New Year, so sit down and have a good chat!"
Wu Zichen is not stupid. Of course, he knows that Chen Gongzhe and others must have other intentions, but they can't leave now. And after all, he still has a slight hindrance about Chen Gongzhe in his heart, and he also wants to know more about his first love. So he finally agreed to Chen Gongzhe's request: "Then let's talk!"
Several people talked about some irrelevant topics, and Chen Gongzhe suddenly asked, "Brother Wu, I heard that you went to Huai'an Prefecture to study later. You should be in the first year of high school now, right? Which school is it?"
Wu Zichen suddenly felt a sudden trembling and replied vaguely: "It's just an ordinary high school."
"Really or not?"
"Of course it's true!" Wu Zichen replied firmly, "I had been delaying a lot of homework in various schools before, and I was a little unable to keep up with work. After arriving in Huai'an Prefecture, my family didn't care much about me. I learned some things if I wanted to learn, skipped classes and played games, watched movies, and slept hard. How good can my grades be? After the high school entrance examination, I went to a regular high school casually and fooled my life. Unlike you, you can easily get into a famous key middle school in Beijing!"
"What school is it?" Chen Gongzhe asked.
"Have you heard of private Shanyang High School?" Wu Zichen lied nonsense, "Our school's teaching goal is to not give birth to girls and not die of boys. It is very famous in Huai'an Prefecture."
"If a girl doesn't give birth, a boy doesn't die? What does it mean?" Liu Wenci and the others were a little curious.
Wu Zichen explained: "It is to strive for girls not to have children during school, and boys not to die during fighting during school. How about it? Is it open and free enough?"
Chen Gongzhe seemed to believe Wu Zichen's answer and then asked: "Will you go to other schools often? For example, Huai'an Prefecture Middle School affiliated to Jingshi University?"
"Huai'an Mansion? There are girls with glasses and nerds. What's so fun about it? Occasionally, I'm going to Experimental Middle School. It's okay to have fun at No. 1 Middle School. It's so tall and high school in Huai'an Mansion, but I can't afford to climb!" Wu Zichen ran the train lane with his mouth, "How did you know about Huai'an Mansion? Could there be someone familiar in that school?"
"Our eldest daughter-in-law is in Huai'an Mansion!" Liu Wenci said proudly.
"And it's also the school beauty!" Zhang Zichen added.
"Talk too much!" Chen Gongzhe scolded, but the pride on his face could not be concealed: "Don't listen to their nonsense. In fact, it was a marriage that my father and mother had booked me in private. It is said that the little girl looks pretty good and has good grades. She is now studying in Huai'an Mansion. As for the specific details, I am very clear."
"Oh, I understand what you mean! You want me to find out the basic situation of your wife, right?" Wu Zichen looked like he suddenly realized, "If you want to say that I am indeed the most suitable person to do this kind of work. If you have free time, you are familiar with you and are not interested in girls, you can be confident and boldly entrust the investigation task without worrying about poaching. Is this what it means?"
After saying this, Zhang Zichen and Liu Wenci also felt that it made sense, and thought that Chen Gongzhe invited Wu Zichen to dinner for this purpose. But Chen Gongzhe waved his hand: "I will naturally handle my wife's affairs by myself. How can I just deal with others? Trouble brothers? I will mention Huai'an Mansion below, which is actually for another meaning!"
"What does that mean?" Wu Zichen was very curious.
"I want to introduce you to a boyfriend!"
As soon as Chen Gongzhe's words fell, Zhang Zichen and Liu Wenci's bean juice squirted on the table, and even Wu Zichen became stunned.
Chen Gongzhe immediately explained: "No matter what, Chen is still worried about that incident back then, and is still grateful for Brother Wu's loyalty. However, he is not a fellow person, and he can only respect Brother Wu's kindness. Out of shame and compensation, he has always wanted to find a suitable boyfriend for Brother Wu. However, the world is so big that there are probably very few handsome guys who can catch your eyes on Brother Wu. It happened that a few days ago, I heard my wife say that there is a peerless handsome guy in Huai'an Mansion, who is so handsome that he is so cruel. It can be said that both appearance and temperament are far ten times and a hundred times better than Chen! I believe that as long as Brother Wu sees him, he will fall in love immediately!"
Wu Zichen's heart moved, and he still pretended to be careless on the surface and asked, "Is it true? I dare to ask what is the name of that extremely handsome man who is so handsome?"
