He said to me: "Counting the time, we haven't seen each other since we graduated from elementary school, right?"
I nodded and replied: "Absolutely. What are you doing now?"
Lu Xiaoliang said with a wry smile: "I went to work after graduating from vocational high school. I worked in factories and construction sites, and finally came back to take over my dad's stall."
I was surprised: "So you are the boss now?"
Lu Xiaoliang smiled bitterly again and said: "What kind of boss am I? I can't make much money in a month. I can only say that my expenses at home are not big."
"Too."
I nodded, and Lu Xiaoliang asked me again: "What about you? What are you doing now?"
I hesitated for a moment and then said: "I now work for an internet celebrity company in Chengdu."
"It's not bad. Internet celebrities can make quite a lot of money now. I've seen those live broadcasts, and the reward alone can reach 100,000 yuan."
I smiled and shook my head and said: "Actually, a lot of what you see is an illusion. Most of it is the money earned by the guild. Of course, there are those who reward millions for a live broadcast, but it is pitiful."
"I don't understand this, haha."
Picking up the wine glasses, we touched another one.
"By the way," Lu Xiaoliang suddenly seemed to have remembered something, and then said to me, "In our elementary school's WeChat group, there was talk a few days ago about organizing a class reunion after the end of the year. Did you know?"
"I'm not even in the elementary school classmates, so I don't know about this."
"Then I can invite you into the group?"
Actually, I don’t think too much about it, because all my elementary school classmates are quite interested, and except for Lu Xiaoliang, I really don’t like anyone.
But he couldn't control Lu Xiaoliang's enthusiasm, so he still added my WeChat account and pulled me into the primary school classmates group.
At this moment, the classmate group is chatting lively, and many classmates are handing out New Year red envelopes.
When Lu Xiaoliang pulled me in, someone asked Lu Xiaoliang if he had brought water into the group.
Lu Xiaoliang said my name, and then some classmates said, why did you bring him in?
As soon as I saw this, I felt very uncomfortable. I didn't want to join the group, but I just couldn't control Lu Xiaoliang's enthusiasm.
Lu Xiaoliang said in the group: "I am with Chen Feng right now, and I just happened to pull him into the group. Didn't we say we were going to have a class reunion?"
"Yes, we have discussed meeting in the town on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, and now it is confirmed that fifteen classmates will participate."
Lu Xiaoliang then asked me: "Chen Feng, please join us too, let's go together."
"Xiao Liang, to be honest, I really don't want to go."
"Let's go. We all had a classmate together, and we all disappeared. Let's go."
I still don’t want to go, I want to say that I am very busy and I have to go back to Chengdu tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.
But before I could say anything, Lu Xiaoliang said to me again: "Actually, there is another thing. I am not getting divorced. I plan to pursue our former elementary school monitor. I heard that she is also divorced, and the child is with the husband.
side."
"Isn't it? Our elementary school monitor is also divorced?" I asked in surprise.
"No, there are so many divorces these days!" Lu Xiaoliang sighed with emotion.
I remember that my class monitor in elementary school was quite a nice person. Although he was not a great person, he did not despise others either.
What I remember most is that one time in a math class, I forgot to bring my notebook, and the monitor lent me hers.
After thinking about it, I weighed it a little and said, "Okay, let's go."
"Okay, then I'll tell the group."
After saying that, Lu Xiaoliang sent another message to the group: "We are sure, Chen Feng and I are the two of us."
A classmate in the group asked me to send a red envelope, saying that I was a new member and didn’t understand the rules.
I also think I should give out a red envelope, after all, it’s the Chinese New Year, but I just can’t stand these people asking others to give out red envelopes.
I didn’t post it, blocked the group directly, and continued drinking with Lu Xiaoliang.
When I checked my phone again after a while, I saw that there were messages in the group during the day. Many people accused me of not knowing how to plan, why I just came in without saying a word, and why I was reluctant to send out red envelopes.
Others say it’s because I’m so poor now that I don’t even have the money to give out red envelopes?
Others said that since this is the case, we should kick him out of the group to prevent him from grabbing our red envelopes.
Damn it! I was really not mad to death after hearing these words.
This is why my elementary school classmates are all a group of snobs. This is why I don’t want to join the group, and why I don’t even bother to deal with them.
They only try to flatter anyone who has money. For example, Wang Peng's status in the group is particularly prominent, and those classmates all compliment him.
I also saw Wang Peng when I visited the grave this afternoon, and I don’t know how he finally dealt with the workers’ debts.
He is very popular in the group, and I think every red envelope he sends out is worth more than 100 yuan.
Then some classmates chimed in and said, "Mr. Wang is so awesome!"
I put the phone back into my pocket again, and Lu Xiaoliang said to me: "Don't pay too much attention to what they said, they are all joking."
"I don't mind at all, let's just have a drink."
After picking up the glass and drinking another one, Lu Xiaoliang asked me again: "Chen Feng, seriously, isn't the woman who came with you just now really your girlfriend?"
"It's not true, why did I lie to you?"
"She is so beautiful. I have never seen such a beautiful woman."
I admit it, Sun Xiaoxiao is indeed good-looking, and among the women I know, he can be ranked among the top three.
I smiled and said: "She is really my friend, not only my friend, but also my boss."
"You your boss?"
"That's right! I'm working in her company now."
“I’m still a little rich woman here!”
I chuckled and said, "That's right."
"Then does he have a boyfriend?"
"No."
Lu Xiaoliang was suddenly silent for a while, then said with a silly smile: "Forget it, I still don't want to, I don't deserve it."
He is quite self-aware. It is not that he is not worthy of a woman like Sun Xiaojie, but that he cannot grasp her. Even if I want to introduce her to him, it is useless.
After chatting with Lu Xiaoliang for almost an hour, I saw that the time was quite late, so I said to him: "Let's make an appointment another day. My mother is still alone, so I have to go back."
"Okay, let's meet at the classmate gathering. You must come!"
I smiled and nodded, and Lu Xiaoliang sent me downstairs.
But I found that Sun Xiaojie was missing. She was unfamiliar with the place, so I quickly took out my cell phone to call her.
But no one answered the phone, so I continued to call her, but she still didn't answer.
I was a little panicked because she was not familiar with this place and she was so pretty, so I was worried that something might happen to her.
When I was anxious, Sun Xiaojie called me back.
I hurriedly answered the call and asked her, "Where are you? Why don't you answer my call?"
"I didn't hear you just now. I was playing with a group of children here. Are you okay?"
"Come back quickly, we have to go back."
After hanging up the phone and waiting for two minutes, Sun Xiaojie finally came back.
As soon as I saw her, I asked her: "Didn't I tell you to stay where you are and stop wandering around? You are not familiar with this place. What should you do if you get lost?"
Sun Xiaojie rolled his eyes at me and said, "I'm not a child, how could I get lost?"
"Don't be too courageous. Let me tell you, our town is not as safe as the city."
Sun Xiaojie pouted and said, "Okay, okay, I understand. I'm wrong. I'll apologize to you. Don't be angry."
"If an apology is useful, what else do the police need to do?"
Sun Xiaojie looked incredulous and said, "You're not going to send me to the police station because of this, are you?"
Looking at her silly look, I couldn't help but laugh: "Go home quickly, look at your silly look."
