Chapter 41 The first time(1/2)
During the meal, Tao Meng asked Yang Jingxing to be polite: "Thanks to my grandma for saying your name is good."
Yang Jingxing was happy: "Your grandma has good taste."
Tao Meng said: "My grandma likes to come here to drink tea, and we will go there later."
After an hour of eating, they went upstairs to drink coffee. Tao Meng asked Yang Jingxing: "Do you still remember my grandma?"
Yang Jingxing nodded: "Remember, the old man is very kind and healthy. He was probably a beauty when he was young."
Tao Mengxiao: "My grandma remembers you because you called her grandma when we first met."
Yang Jingxing said: "We are all like this over there."
Tao Meng asked: "How is your grandma?"
Yang Jingxing said: "I am over sixty, and I want to live to be a hundred."
Tao Meng said: "My grandma is seventy-four, and she didn't give birth to my father until she was thirty... Where is your grandpa?"
The two talked about family issues for a long time. Tao Meng's grandfather has passed away three years ago, and her father is actually an only child. Tao Meng originally had an aunt and uncle who cared about her very much, but unfortunately they no longer interact with her.
Yang Jingxing is exaggerating. There are a lot of relatives in the family, including uncles, aunts, uncles, and some who are a little further away. They don't get close to each other often, but they will definitely move around during the holidays.
Tao Meng's grandma has a good background. Before liberation, she was the third young lady of the Chen family in Puhai. Tao Meng's grandfather was the second young master of the Tao family in Puhai before liberation. He was three years older than the third young lady. The third young lady and the second young master
They were childhood sweethearts and childhood sweethearts. Although they were only teenagers at the time, they had a very good relationship.
However, in the early days of liberation, the Tao family and the Chen family had differences. The Tao family stayed and became national capitalists, while the Chen family moved to Hong Kong. Two years later, they separated again. The third lady stayed, and many others went.
U.S.
However, the relationship between the second young master of a national capitalist and the third young lady of a comprador capitalist has not been affected by politics and war, and remains strong and deep.
After going through a lot of hardships, the third lady finally returned to China, and the second young master married the third lady regardless of all resistance. By that time, it was already sixty years ago.
As a national capitalist, all your capital belongs to the nation, so when Tao Meng's father spoke out, the Tao family's life was very difficult. Fortunately, the third lady was a top student in the Chinese Department of the University of Hong Kong, and her son was greatly influenced by it.
A good tutor. And the second young master is a very capable man who tried his best to protect his family in the turbulent years.
Later, with the introduction of reform and opening up, both national capitalists and comprador capitalists turned over. Not to mention the strong alliance, the business prospered and flourished.
Yang Jingxing's grandparents were both born as farmers. It is said that they were once landlords, but landlords did not go there.
It can be seen that Tao Meng has a very good relationship with her grandma, and she also envies her grandparents for their beautiful relationship that has never made them blush in their lives.
Yang Jingxing said: "I heard that my grandparents have been quarreling all their lives. Now they are old and have no strength."
Tao Meng said: "We have been arguing for at least a lifetime. In fact, I think that era also had its advantages."
Yang Jingxing said: "Your grandfather's grandfather must have a concubine."
Tao Meng was angry: "That's just one aspect."
Yang Jingxing said: "It's all just one aspect. Your life is happy enough, be content. Yu Xinting, the girl from the piano department in the morning, when she was preparing for the exam, she lived alone in Puhai, living in a small house of six or seven square meters.
I have a piano and a bed, and I share a bathroom with a group of people, and I haven’t even been home during the Chinese New Year. If something happens, I can’t help but cry every day.”
Tao Meng was a little surprised: "I didn't see it."
Yang Jingxing smiled: "What can you see? The world is so big, there are so many joys and sorrows, and you can never see them all. Your eyes and heart should see more of your own happiness and beauty, but don't be proud."
Tao Meng hummed: "When have I ever been proud?"
Yang Jingxing looked at Tao Meng.
Tao Meng was angry: "This doesn't count, it's a trap you set!"
Yang Jingxing said: "Then I hope you can win."
Tao Meng changed the subject: "What has been the happiest thing for you since you were a child?"
Yang Jingxing said: "There are too many. Happiness comes in all kinds and cannot be compared."
Tao Meng was curious: "Just say two things."
Yang Jingxing said: "I am very happy to open my eyes and see the world for the first time..."
Tao Mengfan: "Who will remember... Even so."
Yang Jingxing added: "I was very happy when I bought a game console when I was a kid. I was happy when I went home during the holidays. I was happy when I did good things..."
Tao Meng didn't believe it: "What good thing did you do?"
Yang Jingxing said: "I'm not proud."
Tao Meng was so anxious that she poked the plate with a spoon: "Speak quickly!"
So the two of them changed the topic and talked about their respective childhoods. Tao Meng had a very close friend in elementary school. Both of them practiced piano. The girl even went to Tao Meng's house. Unfortunately, Tao Meng later went to Shangpu to study.
After entering junior high school, we gradually lost contact. Tao Meng was a shuttlecock player when she was a child. She had no opponent in the entire grade. She was also good at flying kites and playing tops.
Yang Jingxing smiled: "If I have the opportunity, I can make you nostalgic for your elementary school days."
Tao Meng sighed: "At that time, I really didn't know what it was like to be sad. Xiang Xuan and I could play house for a while, cook, and make clothes..."
Yang Jingxing asked: "In what grade are you still playing house?"
Tao Meng said: "In the second and third grade, I have a very deep memory anyway."
Time passed quickly while chatting away. It was already four o'clock when Yang Jingxing received a call from Zhang Jiahao. Zhang Jiahao said there was a dinner party and asked him if he wanted to go. Several famous musicians were there. Yang Jingxing failed to live up to his good intentions.
, said he couldn’t leave.
Tao Meng also had to go home for dinner, so Yang Jingxing said, "Let's go and see you off."
Tao Meng said: "I will go back at five o'clock, it will be in time."
Yang Jingxing said: "Then let me take you out to show off."
Tao Meng was immune: "It's okay to walk for a while, but it takes too long to sit."
The two of them circled Jin Mao twice, and then Yang Jingxing sent Tao Meng home. When they were still a hundred or two hundred meters away from their home, Tao Meng stopped the car, pointed to the eighteen-story building from a distance and said: "
My home is on the twelfth floor."
Yang Jingxing also understood: "Goodbye."
Tao Meng nodded: "Goodbye...send me a text message when you get to school and I'll get off the bus."
Yang Jingxing reminded: "Hold the score."
"Oh...goodbye."
After Yang Jingxing returned to school, he went to the piano room and had to call Liu Miao and Xia Xue. These two girls were no longer playful and did not get together on weekends, wasting Yang Jingxing's phone bill.
It seemed that Yang Jingxing was really going to become a celebrity in the school. As soon as he arrived in the piano room, even the administrator welcomed him and even went to ask the students in the room he usually used to change places. Yang Jingxing quickly said no.
On Sunday morning, when Yang Jingxing went to school, he met Yu Xinting. Yu Xinting handed her an apple and said with a smile, "You won't be able to finish this in three bites."
Yang Jingxing asked: "Where is An Xin?"
Yu Xinting said: "I went to play with her classmates."
Yang Jingxing suggested: "You can go together."
Yu Xinting clenched her fists: "I want to practice piano. I joined the piano club, which means I can help find tutors and guide people to choose pianos. I will make money."
Yang Jingxing taught a lesson: "Why do you want to make money? Focus on studying!"
Yu Xinting is very motivated: "You can make money and study at the same time! Are you going to practice piano now?"
Yang Jingxing nodded: "Want to eat hot pot tonight?"
Yu Xinting asked: "Is your girlfriend coming?"
Yang Jingxing said: "It's not my girlfriend, it's just the two of us."
Yu Xinting didn't believe it: "It must be, you lied to me! I'm going to practice the piano too, bye."
Yang Jingxing had to practice with the band all day today. Before starting, Zhang Jiahuo also gave Yang Jingxing a lesson, saying that he should know more people and have more friends. Li Yingzhen was still very dissatisfied with the band and almost regretted her haste.
decision.
At noon on Monday, Yang Jingxing met Yu Xinting and An Xin in the cafeteria after practicing the piano. The three of them sat together, but An Xin quickly spotted a classmate and passed by with a plate.
Yu Xinting said while eating: "I put my bag in the dormitory, otherwise I would have apples for you."
Yang Jingxing said: "How can I be embarrassed to eat your food every day?"
Yu Xinting had a serious expression: "I said I would buy you a big car! From now on, I will give you one every day, Monday to Friday. An apple a day will keep you from getting sick."
Yang Jingxing smiled: "But you can't give it to me all at once, you have to give it to me every day."
Yu Xinting said: "Okay, I can give you two on weekends, one for you and your girlfriend."
Yang Jingxing said: "I have several girlfriends."
Yu Xinting's eyes widened: "Ah! Are you serious?"
"Fake. That's not my girlfriend, a high school classmate."
Yu Xinting turned her head to the left: "I don't believe it." Then she turned her head to the right: "I don't believe it!"
Yang Jingxing said: "Why are you lying to me? I can have more apples."
