Proud Gu Mingyu

Chapter 15 Eavesdropping

In the next few days, Zhou Cheng avoided Gu Mingyu a little. It happened that the sports meeting was coming soon, so Zhou Cheng asked Gu Mingyu to go home first on the pretext of training 4x100 meters after school.Gu Mingyu didn't know what he was thinking, but it was Zhou Cheng who cared for him and didn't want him to wait for him in the playground.

Gu Mingyu is also very interested in sports, but it's a pity that he can't leave the field, so he doesn't bother to stand on the playground.In the fourth and fifth grades of elementary school, because of the broadcast of Captain Tsubasa, football was popular in the school for a while. At that time, they had not moved yet, and they gathered a group of friends to play football in the family court of the procuratorate. Suddenly someone Pointing at Gu Mingyu and shouting.

At that time, Zhou Cheng went to pick up balls in the field outside the fence, Gu Mingyu looked confused, everyone looked at him for some reason, until hot liquid dripped on his clothes, he looked down, it was bright red and glaring.

Gu Mingyu never had a nosebleed when he was a child. That nosebleed scared everyone. In other people's terms, it was like a fountain. Several children ran over to cover his nose and lift his chin, and someone took a small spoon He filled the water and dripped it into his nose, but it didn't stop.When Zhou Cheng picked up the ball and came back to see his appearance, he was so frightened that the ball dropped, rolled into the ditch and was never found again.

Since then, Gu Mingyu has been asked not to engage in strenuous exercise, and he is not required to participate in any physical education meeting at school. Gu Mingyu feels that his parents are making a fuss. Except for that time, he has never had a nosebleed again. No major problems were found.But in order to reassure everyone, Gu Mingyu still agreed honestly, but occasionally looking at those high-spirited boys on the court, Gu Mingyu still felt a little envious.

On the third day when Gu Mingyu went home alone, he was riding a bicycle and listening to music. The player in his schoolbag was playing Xingyu Xingyuan. This was Gu Mingzhu's favorite song, and it was specially brought to Mingyu from the city during the last holiday. .

Because of the sports meeting, many students were left to train. Even those who did not participate in the sports would gather around the playground to watch. Therefore, when school is over, the roads are always full of bicycles, and today it looks particularly deserted.Many sweet-scented osmanthus trees were planted inside and outside the campus. At this time, the Mid-Autumn Festival had just passed, and the whole street was full of sweet-scented osmanthus. Unknown fallen leaves were spread all over the ground. After being run over by wheels, a leaf happened to stick to it.

Gu Mingyu stopped the car and lowered his head to tear it up. When he raised his head, the handlebar accidentally caught the earphones, and the music stopped abruptly.Then Gu Mingyu heard a familiar voice.

"I've arrived at the gate of the school, where are you?"

Behind him is a newsstand with pay phones.

"Okay, I know how to get there, yes, yes, just wait for me at the intersection," Gu Mingzhu's voice was recognizable, sweet and mellow, like pearls falling on a jade plate, "Well, see you later."

Gu Mingyu turned her head to look, and sure enough, she saw Gu Mingzhu in a beautiful little red dress standing there with her back to him. She had just hung up the phone and was paying for it. carnations.

Gu Mingyu frowned, the National Day had just passed, and it wasn't the weekend, Gu Mingzhu, who was intern at the urban hospital, should not be free to come back—if she came back, why didn't she tell her family in advance?

And carnations...

Gu Mingyu had some guesses in his mind, and it was this guess that made him not stop Gu Mingzhu, but put the earphones in his schoolbag, and pushed the cart to follow Gu Mingzhu far away.

Gu Mingzhu was wearing small red diamond-encrusted leather shoes, her steps were brisk, and she seemed very happy.

She walked all the way through the school gate, walked about a hundred meters forward, and turned into an alley.Gu Mingyu hid the bicycle under a big osmanthus tree, thought for a while and took off her schoolbag, and locked it with the bicycle with a long chain lock.

Gu Mingzhu is not tall, and she is only a little over 1 meters tall in high heels. Gu Mingyu quickly caught up with her.At the second intersection, Gu Mingyu didn't follow too closely, but looked out at the turn, because he remembered that Gu Mingzhu made an appointment on the phone to meet someone at the intersection.

Since there is no one at the first intersection, it is likely to be at the second intersection.

Sure enough, a middle-aged woman in her 50s stood there at the second intersection. She was tall, with high forehead and broad eyebrows, which looked familiar.

Just when Gu Mingyu was thinking about where he had seen this woman, he saw Gu Mingzhu walking up to the woman and calling out affectionately and cautiously: "Mom."

All of a sudden, Gu Mingyu thought, isn't it familiar? My sister Gu Mingzhu looks very similar to her.

"Hmm." The woman's voice was a little cold, she took the fruits and flowers from Gu Mingzhu, turned around and led the way, and said, "Why are you buying so many things again? If you have money, you should know how to save, and don't waste money."

"It's just some fruits, let the younger brothers taste it." Gu Mingzhu was a little embarrassed, the woman was tall and fast, she was wearing high heels, and the road was a bit uneven, so it was very difficult to follow.

"I can't even eat enough, what kind of fruit to eat, and this flower, if you really want to, give some money to your brother. I have to 'give away' the flower."

Gu Mingzhu couldn't hold back her smile any longer, she lowered her head and followed slowly without making a sound.

Gu Mingyu frowned fiercely, "Guo Song" is a local dialect, which means to serve, and it is usually only used for elderly people who are already old, and it also has a faint meaning of sending them to the end.

Originally, when Gu Mingyu saw his sister meeting with his mother and wanted to retreat, he came here just to confirm his guess and had no intention of eavesdropping on their conversation, but now Gu Mingyu was in no hurry to leave, he was afraid that Gu Mingzhu would suffer.

The woman over there led Gu Mingzhu to the deepest part of the alley, where there was only one house with a yard, and there were no neighbors around.The house has three floors, has a balcony and a flat roof, and looks very nice.

The courtyard wall was not high, so Gu Mingyu found a stone to step on, and climbed to the top of the wall to look inside.

"It looks pretty good here. It's not far from the school, and it's quiet. It's a good place to study." Most of the renters here are middle and high school students, and they haven't come back yet. Only the woman lives with her two sons who are in elementary school. .

Gu Mingzhu was walking around in the yard to observe, her eyes almost caught where Gu Mingyu was, and he shrank back in fright.He didn't climb up again until he heard voices coming from inside again.

"What's the matter? The rent is three hundred a month. The landlord is a bloody man. He doesn't know the difficulties of other people's families. He dares to charge her so much just for renting a room. No wonder none of the four children wanted her. I can collect rent to live." The woman's eyes showed a fierce look.

Gu Mingzhu didn't know the situation, and felt that three hundred was a bit expensive, "Then how do you charge for water and electricity?"

"Water and electricity bills are free, even if you have lunch at the landlord's place, you have to charge another five yuan each, which is very dark."

Gu Mingyu sneered again and again, this is a school district house, No. [-] Middle School and No. [-] Elementary School are nearby, [-] yuan a month without water and electricity bills is already cheap enough, and three people still live here.Some of Gu Mingyu's classmates came from the countryside and rented a house near the school. The conditions were not as good as here, and they all charged [-].Moreover, the landlord's house does not provide meals, so he can only go out to eat as a student, and it is when he is growing up that he can't get enough for less than ten yuan for a meal.

The millennium is not like the previous years. Many people from the south went to the coastal cities to work and do business. Everyone became rich, and even with the soaring prices, people in the county laughed at themselves that this is a small Hong Kong.

After they stood in the yard for a while, two boys in elementary school uniforms pushed the door out, and the tall one was about the same size as Gu Mingyu, who should be in the sixth grade this year——Gu Mingyu's class was the last fifth grade For graduates, the sixth grade will be added in the next class.

The woman beckoned them over, "Zhuo Lei Zhuo Hao, Mingzhu is here, and I came here to see you." She handed the fruit to them, "Here, wash it and eat it."

The older boy left without even looking at Mingzhu when he picked up the fruit. His younger brother was well-behaved, and was about to open his mouth to call his sister, but was dragged away by his elder brother.

From a distance, Zhuo Lei could be heard yelling at his younger brother Zhuo Hao: "What are you shouting for?! Where's the older sister? She's the daughter of a man who doesn't want our mother. Their family hates the poor and loves the rich!"

The woman raised her eyelids, and there was a hint of color on her face, as if she thought her son scolded her well.

Gu Mingzhu endured and endured, and when her younger brothers walked away, she finally couldn't help but whispered: "Mom, my father is not that kind of person. When you divorced, my father gave you all the family's money..."

"How dare you say that with that little money? I worked so hard to give birth to his daughter and take care of his consumptive parents, and he treats me like that? I don't steal men, and I don't just send my parents away. He said he divorced me." Divorce? Isn't it because his wife is rich later?"

"My dad and...she only met after you divorced." Gu Mingzhu's eyes were flushed, and her big eyes were filled with tears.She has always had only admiration for Hu Zhen, and she also believes that Gu Huaili and Hu Zhen got married because of their true love, not because of money.

"He wanted to kick me out a long time ago so that he could find a rich wife. Those of them who have studied know how to talk about benevolence and morality. A man can't farm or raise cattle, and can only read, write and draw all day long. How can he live without a woman to raise him?! And his body, he has a cold and fever every three days. I have been with him for seven or eight years, and I only gave birth to you, a useless girl. After marrying another man, I gave birth immediately Two big fat boys, your father——no way!"

Gu Mingyu clenched his fists tightly, if the one inside was not a woman, he would rush in and beat her up.

Zhuo Lei and Zhuo Hao came back after washing the fruit, just in time to hear their mother's last sentence, Zhuo Lei sneered loudly, he was older than Zhuo Hao, and could already understand the meaning of those words.Gu Mingyu climbed on the wall, looking at him coldly.

Gu Mingzhu was angry but she didn't want to argue with them. If she really wanted to talk about Gu Mingyu, she was afraid they could say even worse things, but she couldn't stay here any longer, so she suppressed her anger and offered to leave.

At this moment, behind Gu Mingyu suddenly sounded a voice of a boy whose voice was changing, it wasn't unpleasant, but a little hoarse.

"Student, what are you doing?"
