Three Hundred and Six, when You Get Old, Your Hair Turns Gray
After Chen Hansheng went downstairs, Xiao Rongyu stood blankly in the living room. Professor Sun opened the study door: "Where is your boyfriend?"
"He went to buy you Xinghualou's water chestnut cake."
"Your boyfriend is very interesting. He has already been a guest at home and even went out to buy gifts."
After Sun Biyu finished speaking, she closed the door with a smile and continued to study.
Xiao Rongyu's face turned red, thinking that he would beat Chen Hansheng to death in order to relieve his anger.
While Chen Hansheng was going to Lion Bridge to buy water chestnut cakes and back, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that his reaction was slow.
When Xiao Rongyu compiled Rocket 101's legal regulations, he had already vaguely mentioned Professor Sun, but he was too lazy at the time and did not ask further questions, thus missing the opportunity to get to know this big boss.
Thinking of this, Chen Hansheng called Xiao Rongyu again: "Ask Professor Sun tonight, how do you want to eat?"
"Shall we invite Professor Sun out to eat?" Xiao Yu'er asked.
"It's not that I won't invite you. With the old lady's personality, I guess she won't go out to eat."
Chen Hansheng thought for a while: "You go and ask first. If you agree, I will call Jinling Hotel to make a reservation immediately."
Not long after, Xiao Rongyu said as expected: "Professor Sun said he doesn't want to go out, so he can just cook some millet porridge at home."
"Okay, tell her."
Chen Hansheng was also prepared: "I'm going to buy some thousand-layer pancakes and scallion pancakes, and some pickles and pickles. Then I'll go back and stir-fry some green vegetables. The three of us, master and apprentice, will have dinner together tonight."
"ah?"
Xiao Rongyu was stunned for a moment: "Xiao Chen, do we want to stay at Professor Sun's house for dinner?"
"You haven't eaten it before?"
Chen Hansheng was also confused.
Xiao Rongyu shook his head: "No, I'm worried that it will be too much trouble for Professor Sun."
"Why."
Chen Hansheng sighed: "You don't understand. The old lady usually eats alone.
How happy she would be if she had more people to accompany her. As a disciple, you don't know how to care about your teacher in life. "
"Really?"
Xiao Rongyu was still a little hesitant.
"Well, if you ask again, the old lady will definitely agree."
"Then don't hang up the phone."
Xiao Rongyu walked to the study room holding his mobile phone and expressed his intention to stay and have dinner with his boyfriend in the evening.
Professor Sun was probably a little surprised. He coughed and said, "If you can't find a place to eat nearby, it's just a matter of adding two pairs of chopsticks here."
When Chen Hansheng heard that this was a promise, he immediately went to buy vegetables and cakes, but Xiao Yu'er hadn't figured it out yet: "Professor Sun is not very happy for us to stay, her tone is a bit reluctant."
"Don't force it!"
Chen Hansheng was still a little anxious, thinking that he was so stupid.
"You know, this is tsundere. Professor Sun agrees in his heart but doesn't want to admit it on the surface. Isn't that how you usually are? Why does the old lady like you but she really doesn't know why?"
······
About an hour and a half later, Chen Hansheng finally came back with water chestnut cake, milk tea and some food.
Xiao Rongyu was studying with Professor Sun Biyu in the study room. When he heard a "crash" in the living room, he immediately knew that Chen Hansheng was back.
Because if you are a student, everyone enters and exits cautiously.
"Professor Sun, I'll ask him to come in."
Xiao Rongyu stood up and said.
"No, let's go out too."
Sun Biyu turned off the desk lamp and put down her reading glasses: "It's just a good time to rest your eyes."
Normally Xiao Rongyu wouldn't think much about it, but after being reminded by Chen Hansheng just now, she immediately realized that she wanted to go out and see Chen Hansheng.
"You're so arrogant. I'm not usually this exaggerated."
Xiao Rongyu murmured in his heart.
Professor Sun's knees were a little bruised. Xiao Yu'er helped her out of the study attentively. She happened to see Chen Hansheng holding a large bag of things in his hands and sorting them.
"Xiao Chen, this is Professor Sun."
"Hello, Professor Sun."
Chen Hansheng turned around and said: "I often hear Xiao Yu'er talk about you. You are the Beidou of the legal industry. You have made great contributions to promoting the development of all walks of life and safeguarding the rights of ordinary people."
However, this rhetoric failed to fool Professor Sun. She stared at Chen Hansheng and said, "Are you the boy who drove the car that day?"
"Professor Sun, it was me that day, but I didn't do it on purpose."
Chen Hansheng apologized immediately, his face full of guilt.
Xiao Rongyu looked at Chen Hansheng and then at Professor Sun: "You guys, do you know each other?"
Mrs. Sun pointed to her knees and said, "I don't know them, but my knees know them."
"Yesterday, I was driving accidentally and collided with Professor Sun."
Only then did Chen Hansheng tell the truth.
Xiao Rongyu was stunned for a while, then stamped his foot and said, "Then why didn't you tell me earlier."
"At that time, I didn't even react."
Chen Hansheng said sarcastically.
"Professor Sun..."
Seeing Sun Biyu staggering back to the study, Xiao Yuer glared at Chen Hansheng and hurried after him. She wanted to resolve this dispute quickly.
In an instant, Chen Hansheng was the only one left in the living room. The key was that he didn't feel too embarrassed. He walked over and looked at the photo on the display shelf, which was a black and white photo of Sun Biyu and her husband dancing.
The old gentleman was in his prime at that time, and he looked at the young Sun Biyu tenderly and affectionately.
"Old man, you must know that it is not my fault at all. In other words, I am also a victim..."
While Chen Hansheng was chattering, he heard a "pop" sound. The photo frame, which had been placed stably, suddenly tilted and the whole photo fell on the table.
It was already evening, the sun set very early, and the lights were not turned on in the living room, which was pitch black. The door to the study was still closed, with only a little light slipping through the bottom crack.
It was really scary that the photo frame collapsed without any external force.
Instead of other people's random thoughts, which would probably scare them, various ghost stories from the Republic of China period emerged, but they happened to encounter Chen Hansheng's no-holds-barred character.
"Hey, I just said a few words to your wife, but you're not satisfied yet."
He walked over carelessly and put the photo frame back up: "You're not satisfied, I'm not satisfied yet. My girlfriend is staying with your wife, and I'm going to cook for your wife in a while. Don't be angry." , I won’t be able to serve you anymore!”
"Bata"
Chen Hansheng turned on the light in the bedroom and walked over to check the photo frame carefully. Only then did he discover that the bracket had an obvious crack due to its age, which made it unable to support the photo frame.
Chen Hansheng shook his head, opened the door and went downstairs, and ran up again after a while.
Listening to the "rumbling" sound in the corridor, Professor Sun felt that the house had not been so lively for a long time. When other students came here, they all held their breath and did not dare to take a breath, so he asked: "Your husband?" What are your friends doing outside?"
Xiaoyu'er immediately ran out to take a look, and then came back to report.
"The frame bracket is broken. He just went downstairs to buy 502 glue and is slowly regluing it."
"Which picture frame?"
"The photo of you and Professor Wu when they were young."
"oh."
Professor Sun was silent for a moment: "Bring the photo frame in later."
Chen Hansheng has been doing things at home since he was a child. He has strong hands-on skills and repaired the photo frame in a short time.
After Xiao Rongyu took it in, he warned carefully: "Xiao Chen said that the 502 glue is very sticky, and two pieces of skin fell off his fingers. Please be careful."
Professor Sun nodded, and then looked at the bracket at the back. Although the crack had been repaired, he still saw that Chen Hansheng's workmanship was good and there were almost no traces.
The old lady touched her young self and husband in the photo, and there was a smile on her usually cold and serious face.
Next to Xiao Yu'er, she also pursed her lips and smiled. The dim lamp shone on Professor Sun's face, and she suddenly remembered a poem by Yeats - "When You Are Old".
When you are old, your hair is gray and you are sleepy,
Sitting tiredly by the fire, I took down this book,
Reading slowly, I saw the look in my eyes when I was chasing my dream,
Your soft look and deep halo.
How many people have loved you, your fleeting figure,
I have loved your beauty, with hypocrisy or true love,
Only one has ever loved you with the heart of a pilgrim,
I love the traces of time on your sad face.
······
"I don't know if Xiao Chen will stay with me and study together when I get old."
In the study room, there are two women of different ages but very similar personalities. One is recalling the romantic past, and the other is looking forward to the romantic future.
However, another sound of "dinging and banging" in the kitchen interrupted this quiet and beautiful picture.
Professor Sun raised his head: "What is your boyfriend doing again?"
This time Xiao Rongyu didn't have to run out to see: "Xiao Chen should be cooking."
"Oh, he is really thick-skinned. Most students would be unable to sit still after I scolded them a few times, but he actually dares to cook."
Sun Biyu put the photo frame on the desk and commented.
"He is quite thick-skinned. We had a quarrel and broke up in the middle of the year."
Xiao Rongyu told the story between himself and Chen Hansheng: "He actually went to his hometown to have a drink with my dad. The key point was that he got my dad drunk."
However, this story touched Mrs. Sun again.
"My husband did the same thing back then. My parents didn't agree with the marriage, so he came to my house with a pot of Shaoxing Huadiao. Why did you call him Xiao Chen?"
"He is a few months younger than me. He got used to his name in high school. My parents and his parents also know each other."
"Then you are childhood sweethearts."
"It doesn't matter. I didn't feel like him in high school, but when other girls were nice to him, I felt super uncomfortable."
"You are just too arrogant, but you are really very similar to me."
······
"It's time to eat."
I don't know how long they talked, until Chen Hansheng's voice rang out, and Xiao Rongyu helped the old lady out of the study.
In fact, Professor Sun didn't have much confidence in Chen Hansheng's cooking skills, but at first glance it looked okay. The vegetables were green, the millet porridge was fragrant, and there were also scallion pancakes, steamed buns and pickles.
Chen Hansheng saw a little surprise in Mrs. Sun's eyes, and took the initiative to explain: "My parents train. They were afraid that I would be abducted by human traffickers and starve to death, so they taught me everything at home."
"oh."
Professor Sun didn't say much, and just sat at the dining table, picking up bean sprouts and eating them.
Chen Hansheng also greeted Xiao Yu'er: "Sit, sit, sit, come here is just like going home, classmate, please don't be polite."
"cut!"
Not surprisingly, Xiao Yu'er received a blank stare.
During the meal, Mrs. Sun didn't talk much and acted like a lady, while Chen Hansheng was more noisy and kept chatting with Xiao Rongyu.
Xiao Yu'er didn't want to talk to him, so he turned on the TV by himself. It looked like there was no one around, just like his own home.
After eating, Chen Hansheng figured that the old lady should go to bed early, cleaned up the kitchen and left with Xiao Yu'er.
The winter moon hangs high in the sky, casting a faint silver light on the ground, inexplicably adding a sense of coldness. Fortunately, it can still illuminate the road. The teaching building and dormitory building not far away are still very noisy.
"Xiao Chen."
Xiao Rongyu, who was walking behind under the moonlight, suddenly shouted.
"What's up?"
Chen Hansheng turned around. He was smoking and had been smoking for several hours at the old lady's house.
"What will you do when I get old?"
"you're old?"
"Um."
"Find someone, find someone younger?"
