Chapter 115 meeting acquaintances in the park
Mother of Wangli went to the lotus pond to hold her little grandson. She did not expect to meet a few acquaintances here. She greeted them awkwardly, "Aunt chunlan, uncle Fugui, and the Xiaoyu couple. What a coincidence. I didn't expect to meet your family here."
"Yes, what a coincidence. Yuqin, why are you here?" Mother of Wangli's name was zhao yuqin. She was the niece of Zhao Chunlan's mother's family, and she was also a distant relative.
Mother of Wangli smiled and said, "My son and daughter-in-law set up a tea wholesale department at the wholesale market with haitang's blessing. The old couple brought their grandson over to play. Today, haitang happened to be in the provincial capital and said that she would like to come to this park with a few classmates. That's why she brought the two of us here."
"Oh, I see." When Zhao Chunlan heard that her family had opened shops in the provincial capital, he was very upset and looked at Li Haitang who was still standing beside the billboard from time to time.
Li Fugui's old face was complicated, and Li Xiaoyu's face did not change much, and his heart was in a mess. Only his wife, Lin Fang, stood by and watched the play with a smile on her face.
Mother of Wangli pulled down Su Tong's arm and gave her a quiet wink. "Su Tong, go get haitang first."
"Oh." Su Tong glanced at Li Fugui and the others, didn't ask any more questions, and immediately turned around to call Li Haitang.
The digest on the billboard was very long, and Li Haitang and Lin Peipei were only halfway through it. When they heard Su Tong's message, they turned to look over there. Li Haitang's eyelashes trembled when he saw them clearly, and then he said as if nothing had happened, "Let's go. Let's go first, a few acquaintances."
She strode over with a faint smile, "Sixth grandpa, sixth grandma, uncle, auntie, what a coincidence. You guys are here to pay your respects."
Li Fugui replied indifferently, and then did not speak again. Zhao Chunlan was the same, but Li Xiaoyu picked up the conversation: "Haitang, is this also a month off to play?"
"Yeah. The students said that there was a new park here, and the scenery was pretty good, so we came over to play during the holidays." Li Haitang replied politely and politely.
Mother of Wangli found the atmosphere a little awkward and took the initiative to pick a topic, "That's right. The scenery in this park is really good. Today, your family is out for fun. Why haven't you seen many children?"
Zhao Chunlan looked into the distance and pointed to the two boys in navy clothes and pants in front of him. He smiled and said, "Both of them are lively and lively. They have run ahead. Our old man can only slowly follow behind."
"I see. Didn't the lin family come together today?" Mother of Wangli looked around but did not see their eldest sons, Li Xiaolin and Wang Yafei.
Zhao Chunlan shook his head, "They didn't come today. There was a wedding banquet at a colleague's house at work. They went to have a wedding banquet." Although she was talking to Mother of Wangli, her eyes were looking at Li Haitang from time to time.
Su Tong, who was standing five steps away, pulled Lin Peipei's arm and lowered his voice, "Pepe, do you find their conversation strange? The family looked at haitang strangely."
"Yes, I feel weird too, but I can't tell." The sensitive Lin Peipei also noticed.
"Haitang just called their grandparents aunt uncle. They should be distant relatives, but why do they always feel a little embarrassed?" Su Tong kept staring at the old couple Li Fugui, feeling a little familiar, but he couldn't tell where it was.
Lin peipei led her up to him. "Let's ask haitang later."
Tired of playing, Wang Wenbing reached out for Li Haitang to hold him. Just as Li Haitang didn't want to have too much contact with the li family, he picked him up, leaned against the railing by the lotus pond to rest, and quietly listened to Mother of Wangli and them chatting.
When they met their family, not to mention Li Haitang, it was only wang li's mother and Zhao Chunlan's relationship. It was not easy for them to play separately, so they had to walk and chat while watching the scenery.
Su Tong and Lin Peipei led the way. Li Haitang followed closely with the little soldier in his arms. The others followed not far behind them.
Zhao Chunlan asked Mother of Wangli about Li Haitang without a trace. He heard that she not only rented a front door for their family, but also opened her own Sugar wholesale division and hired nearly ten employees. When the business was so good, his heart ached.
Mother of Wangli had already treated Li Haitang like her own daughter. Such an outstanding girl had been abandoned by their family. She had suffered so much when she was a child. She couldn't stand it. Since their family wanted to find out about each other, she naturally told the truth.
Tired of playing, Little Fatty lay on Li Haitang's body and was about to fall asleep. This was the first time she had slept with a baby, so she had to keep this position and slow down to catch up. The weight of a child who was almost four years old was not light. Fortunately, Li Haitang often exercised and didn't feel particularly tired walking with him.
When she reached the pavilion in the middle of the lake, there was no one sitting on the stone bench. Li Haitang carried Wang Wenbing to rest. She was too lazy to care about the others.
The li family was probably tired from walking, so they sat down and rested on the empty stool next to her. Mother of Wangli, who had been chatting with them all the way, quickly came over and picked up the little grandson who was sleeping soundly in her arms. He complained, "This brat is tired after playing for so long. He even let haitang hug you to sleep. This is really tiring for you."
"No problem. He's not that heavy. I can still carry him." Li Haitang took a small handkerchief out of his bag and wiped the sweat off his face. Although it was cloudy today, the temperature was nearly 30 degrees celsius. It was still hot to hold a child.
Su Tong, who had walked around the front stall, came over with a bag of popsicles. He gave one to a large group of people, and the last one was left to Li Haitang.
"Where's Pepe?" Li Haitang tore open the bag and took a bite. The taste of the old popsicle was still so nostalgic.
Su Tong had already bitten half of the popsicle in his hand. He took another bite and trembled. "I'm going to the bathroom."
When the popsicle in Li Haitang's hand was almost finished, Lin Peipei came over with a backpack. "Haitang, Su Tong, I just met an acquaintance near the toilet. Guess who?"
"Who is it?" Both of them raised their heads in unison.
"Guess!" Lin Peipei insisted.
"No guesses!" Childish games, they don't participate.
Lin Peipei was furious, "Can't you two play games?"
"No!" I'm tired and the weather is stuffy. I'm not in the mood to play games with you.
"Li Haitang!" A familiar joyful voice came, and then a man dressed in white short-sleeved black trousers rushed over like the wind.
Li Haitang was a little surprised. She really didn't expect her acquaintance to be this idiot. "Zhou Yunyang, why did you come to the provincial capital?"
Zhou Yunyang, who rushed over, gave Su Tong a look and motioned for her to move away.
Su Tong had known him well for a year and knew that he was a fool, silently giving him a seat between the two of them.
Zhou Yunyang sat between the two of them, unaware that this would not affect them at all. He looked sideways at Li Haitang and said in a particularly grumpy tone, "Li Haitang, you didn't tell me when you came to the provincial capital to play. You're too unfriendly."
Li Haitang licked his popsicle and replied, "I also came to the provincial capital last month on my vacation."
"What are you doing in the provincial capital?" Zhou Yunyang was curious.
Li Haitang said calmly, "I've opened a new shop in the wholesale market. I'm here to see what's going on. I'm also delivering food to your Brother chu heng."
"Ah? You went to the national defense university to look for Brother chu heng? Why don't you take me?" Zhou Yunyang complained even more.
Li Haitang's temples twitched. He couldn't stand his childishness and had to promise, "I'll take you next time. By the way, why did you come to the provincial capital today? What's the matter?"
"I didn't come today, I came yesterday morning. My grandmother's old comrade suddenly felt unwell a few days ago and was hospitalized in the provincial military hospital. My mother asked me to visit her. I went to see him yesterday. The old man is recovering quite well. I'm just going to spend half a day in the provincial city today and go back to school in the afternoon." Zhou Yunyang, who was tall and long, sat up straight all of a sudden, giving people a very serious feeling.
If she had not known that he was a fool and that Li Haitang would have been bewitched by his appearance, she would have guessed that the Zhou Yunyang family was not from a simple background. Now it seemed that it might have been a meritorious family. She didn't want to get tangled up on this question and changed the subject, "We're going back in the afternoon, too. Did you come by car or by car?"
"Drive."
Li Haitang raised his eyebrows, "Are you alone?"
Zhou Yunyang nodded, "That's right." Seeing the distrust in her eyes, he gritted his teeth and expressed his displeasure, "Li Haitang, what kind of eyes are you giving me? I'm a very good driver, but I'm a little slow. I call it safe."
Su Tong and Lin Peipei both laughed unkindly. If you don't explain, no one will know. If you don't explain, the whole world will know.
Li Haitang couldn't help but laugh and say, "You drive very steadily. But how long have you been driving from school to the provincial capital?" A man who drove less than 30 yards, she was really curious about how much time he spent on that difficult 100-kilometer road.
"Poof! Haha..." Su Tong and lin peipei laughed even louder.
Zhou Yunyang glared at both of them, "Shut up, both of you! A good man doesn't fight with a woman, and I don't see eye to eye with you!"
The two of them did not shut up at all, and their laughter grew louder.
Li Haitang swallowed the last bit of popsicle and said with a smile, "Zhou Yunyang, I'm worried that you'll drive back to school this afternoon. It might not even get dark. I'm kind enough to help you. Give me your car keys today. I'll take you home."
Without thinking, Zhou Yunyang took off the car key hanging on his waist and threw it to her. He wanted her to drive, but he heard from his second cousin that her driving skills were extremely good.
Li Haitang slipped the key into his schoolbag and glanced at the store in the distance. "Pepe, you should call Xia Lin and ask her to come to the wholesale market in the afternoon. Tell her we have a car back to tan city. We don't need her driver to drop us off."
"Okay." Lin Peipei immediately strode over.
"Hey, Li Haitang, I haven't been to Brother chu heng school yet. Take me there." Zhou Yunyang didn't plan to do that before. He was a little itchy to hear that they were all gone.
Li Haitang shook his head decisively, "I can't see chu heng now. He told me yesterday that they seem to have some training these days. Today, they left school before dawn. They can't come back until summer vacation."
Hearing this, he gave up decisively, "Oh, forget it."
