Pick up a husband and join hands in the future life
Chapter 31 Visit, Teacher
Taking Lin Qingxiu upstairs and knocking on the door, Qi Yuanyi heard approaching footsteps from inside the room. Then with a "click", the door opened, revealing a friendly face.
The person who came was an elderly woman with gray hair, fine lines under her eyes, and an elegant temperament. It was not difficult to tell that she was also a popular beauty when she was young.
When the other party saw Qi Yuanyi, he couldn't help but show a look of surprise and quickly let them in.
"Master's wife, long time no see, I'm here to see you."
Qi Yuanyi helped his master's wife over and carried the fruit into the house. Lin Qingxiu followed him, not forgetting to close the door.
As the master's wife grabbed Qi Yuanyi and walked inside, she called to her husband in the study: "Old Li, come out and see who's here?"
An old man responded from the study: "Who else is coming? It can't be that heartless little bastard!"
When the old man came out, he suddenly realized that it was the person he had just mentioned.
"Oh, you're really a heartless little bastard. What's the matter? You're willing to come and see your old and feeble teacher. I thought you had forgotten about me and your teacher's wife!"
It can be seen that although the old man is harsh in his words, he is actually very happy in his heart, and he can't help but smile.
Looking at the teacher pleadingly, Qi Yuanyi put down the fruit he was holding.
"Teacher, how could I possibly forget you and your wife? Look, I've found a partner and I'll bring him over to meet you."
As he spoke, he pulled Lin Qingxiu out from behind him: "Teacher, Madam, this is my lover Lin Qingxiu." At the same time, he did not forget to squeeze the other's hand soothingly.
Lin Qingxiu was a little shy when he was suddenly stared at by two elderly people, but he tried to remain calm and greeted them generously: "Hello, Teacher, Master's wife, you can call me Qingxiu."
The two looked at Lin Qingxiu carefully. Although he had long hair and was good-looking, he was obviously a boy. He had clear eyes and a graceful demeanor. He looked very compatible with Qi Yuanyi when standing together.
It’s not clear what his character is like yet, but this first impression is still very good.
Especially the master's wife, as she is older, she likes young people like this, who are well-behaved and quiet.
Reaching out and pulling Lin Qingxiu over, the master's wife asked about his situation with a smile. For a while, the two of them had a very pleasant conversation.
Mr. Li asked about Qi Yuanyi's recent situation. When Qi Yuanyi refused to continue his studies and insisted on returning to the countryside, he was furious and felt that he was making fun of his future.
Later, I thought about it for a long time before I figured it out. I had always been worried that the other person was not doing well, but now I see that not only is his condition much better, he has also found a boyfriend.
"What are your plans for the future? Are you going to stay in the countryside forever?" Old Li couldn't help but worry.
"Well, I rented a hill in the village to grow fruit trees. The fruits you brought here are the ones I grew. Teacher, please try them and see how they taste. If you like them, I'll send them to you later."
After frankly telling his plan, Qi Yuanyi did not forget to go to the kitchen to wash some of the fruits he brought.
The two old people are only in their sixties and in good health, with no blood sugar problems, otherwise Qi Yuanyi would not dare to bring them fruit.
The master's wife reached out and took a small tomato. She liked the sour and sweet taste, but many small tomatoes on the market now were not rich in taste and were too watery.
As soon as she took a bite, she was amazed by the rich tomato flavor, and she couldn't help but take another one.
Seeing his wife eating happily, Mr. Li also took a piece of watermelon. He had bad teeth and liked this kind of sweet and soft fruit.
"It tastes pretty good. Just make sure you have a plan and don't forget what you've learned."
When people get old, they just hope that the younger generations can live a good life in peace and happiness.
After staying at the teacher's house for lunch, Qi Yuanyi and Lin Qingxiu went into the kitchen and made some dishes that the teacher's wife usually didn't have the energy to cook, and also stewed a lotus root and pork ribs soup.
The two old people enjoyed their meal very much, and Qi Yuanyi and the others were also very pleased to see them.
Before leaving, Qi Yuanyi did not forget to fill the teacher's refrigerator. If he did not prepare enough, the two old people would eat very casually.
After bidding farewell to his teacher and his wife who were reluctant to leave, Qi Yuanyi went downstairs hand in hand with Lin Qingxiu, who also kept looking back.
"Once the village is built, I will persuade the teacher to retire and live at home."
After hearing this, Lin Qingxiu finally felt less disappointed. He and the two old people hit it off right away. They were about the same age as his grandparents and were very knowledgeable, which made him admire them very much.
"Ayi, can you tell me about our teachers?" Lin Qingxiu was very curious about their experiences.
Qi Yuanyi recalled what his senior brother had told him and hesitated. Only when he saw Lin Qingxiu's expectant expression did he try to choose his words.
"The teacher's surname is Li, and outsiders respectfully call him Mr. Li. He loves studying history and has many well-known papers. He is deeply loved by everyone in the industry. After retirement, he was rehired by the school."
"He was my teacher in one of my classes. I always asked him questions, so we gradually became familiar with each other. Later, he chose to take me in as his last disciple and took special care of me."
"My wife is a dance teacher. She used to be a member of the national dance team. She's very talented."
"I have two senior brothers. I don't know where they are working now. They are always very nice to me."
"When I refused to continue my studies, they were all very angry, worried that I would make a decision I would regret."
Seeing Qi Yuanyi's smiling face, Lin Qingxiu was also a little happy. He understood him a little better.
As for Qi Yuanyi, he felt distressed when he thought about what his teacher and his wife had gone through, and his smile gradually disappeared.
"Actually, some of the stories about the teacher and his wife were told to me by my senior brothers."
"Ah Xiu, have you ever wondered why there's no trace of their children in the teacher's home?"
Lin Qingxiu was a little curious when he entered the house, because modern times are not like Dayang. In many families, although children do not necessarily live together, there are usually photos together or other traces of their lives.
Only in the teacher's house, there is basically no sign of other people living there except for two old people.
However, seeing Qi Yuanyi's somewhat sad expression, Lin Qingxiu did not reply and chose to listen to him silently.
"The teacher's wife actually had a daughter, but she and the teacher were busy with work when they were young, so they left the child in the care of her grandmother. The grandmother neglected the child, and one summer, she drowned and died at the age of 8."
"After this incident, both of them were heartbroken. My wife almost lost contact with her family, but life had to go on. Over the next ten years, they supported each other and finally got through this difficult time."
"Originally, neither of them planned to raise another child, but they ended up accidentally saving a kidnapped teenager. The teenager had been sold by his parents, and after he was rescued, he stuck with Master's wife and the others."
"He's clearly fifteen, but he looks no more than twelve or thirteen. He has no family to return to, so the teachers were soft-hearted and adopted him."
"The three of them lived peacefully for five years, and then something happened again. The other man drowned while trying to save a child who fell into the water. He was only 20 years old."
"The teachers were devastated and never mentioned the child again."
"In order to prevent the teacher and his companions from seeing the belongings and causing harm, they locked up all the relics, so there is no trace of them in the living room."
"I actually admire the relationship between the teacher and his wife. They both suffered hardships throughout their lives, but they still supported each other and got through it. Their determination makes me want to learn from them."
Lin Qingxiu's tears kept falling because of these words. The teachers had lost their children, and Qi Yuanyi had also lost his parents and relatives.
Qi Yuanyi quickly adjusted his mood, and did not forget to wipe away Lin Qingxiu's tears and kiss the other's red eyes.
"Okay, dear, don't be sad. We'll just be twice as nice to our teachers from now on."
Shaking her head while holding back tears, Lin Qingxiu choked out a sob and said, "I'm not only sad for the teachers, I feel sorry for you too."
Only then did he notice the pain in Lin Qingxiu's eyes. Qi Yuanyi was stunned and hugged her tightly, burying his head in her shoulder.
After a few seconds, Lin Qingxiu felt a heat on his shoulder, and a tear flowed down his collarbone to his heart.
