Chapter 666 Farewell(2/3)
After the brother and sister had dinner, they left home happily. Lin Chaoyang sat under the tree in the yard with a little depressed look on his face.
When Li Tuo entered the yard, he saw Lin Chaoyang with a sad face and asked Xiao Sun: "What's wrong with him?"
Xiao Sun described what happened just now, and Li Tuo stepped forward and asked deliberately, "What's wrong? Is this? The new book is not smooth?"
"You don't understand."
Lin Chaoyang said something with slightest, and then discovered that there were loopholes in his words.
The two daughters of Li Tuo's family, especially the little ones, even went abroad to live, and he was most empathetic to this kind of thing.
After listening to Lin Chaoyang telling what happened just now, Li Tuo said calmly: "When the child is grown up, he has his own ideas. Isn't this normal?"
Lin Chaoyang stared at his eyes and saw four words from it: Glaucous.
"What are you doing here?" Lin Chaoyang asked him impatiently.
"Is there any food?"
"I knew you were here to have a free meal."
After someone cooked two dishes for Li Tuo, Li Tuo said, "Nas wanted me to go to the United States to hear this. Lin Chaoyang looked surprised, "Go to the United States to give lectures? Or settle down?"
These Li Tuo have been to the United States several times and were invited to give lectures or exchanges.
"Mainly settled." Li Tuo said a few words and said, "If you have the right opportunity, you will find some job. I'm leaving warmly, and Nas is worried that I'm alone in China."
Lin Chaoyang gently pointed his head to express his understanding.
After a moment of silence, he asked, "Has you decided?"
A look of hesitation flashed in Li Tuo's eyes, "I haven't thought about it yet. Of course, the United States is a good place, but there are also many concerns in China!
》
Starting from the original intention, Lin Chaoyang certainly hopes that Li Tuo will stay in China, have known each other for so many years, and the relationship between them is very close, but the reality is also something that has to be considered.
Li Tuo is nearly sixty years old and his wife has passed away again. His daughter is willing to be filial and let him go to the United States. It is a good thing no matter how you look at it.
"I can't give you any advice on this matter, you have to decide for yourself."
Li Tuo Nuo lost, "Are you still afraid that I will depend on you?"
"It's okay for you to rely on me, I'm afraid your daughter will cause trouble for me."
Lin Chaoyang said it easily, but Li Tuo saw the heaviness in his eyes.
"Oh, this is how people get older, and they always have too many concerns. If I had the chance to go to the United States 20 years ago, I would definitely jump high."
"Don't be stressed. Going to the United States is not going to heaven. I'll be back in one day after taking a plane."
"You think I am as rich as you? You go abroad when you say you go abroad, and you go back when you say you go back."
Li Tuo's considerations are very practical. Lin Chaoyang said: "I mean the convenience of returning to China, not to let you go back to China once a week or a month."
Li Tuo, who had always been free and easy, rarely hesitated, and Lin Chaoyang got up to get a bottle of wine.
"This is not a test question. I'll wait to hand in the paper, so I'll think about it slowly."
He poured Li Tuo a glass of wine, and Li Tuo's attention turned to the wine.
"I'm really going abroad, and I'm still afraid that I won't be able to drink wine? Bring your bottle of Xifeng!"
Lin Chaoyang has a bottle of Xifeng wine for 10 years at home, and Li Tuo has been thinking about it for a long time.
Listening to his unjust request, Lin Chaoyang said suspiciously: "Will you come here today just for my bottle of bar?"
"Say goodbye to me, you can't even bear to leave Xifeng? Isn't our brothers worth a bottle of wine for so many years?"
Li Tuo's moral kidnapping was a mess, but Lin Chaoyang didn't like him.
"Let's talk about it when you leave!"
"Bao, babe!" Li Tuo whispered a few times, cursing bad luck.
After drinking two glasses of wine "ruddle to the point", Li Tuo opened up and talked to Lin Chaoyang about the past.
Sometimes passionate, sometimes expressing remembrance, recalling the past, full of nostalgia for the past.
The two chatted until late at night, and Li Tuo stayed in the west courtyard with drunkenness.
I slept in the room where I had witnessed him chatting with friends all night and drinking and having fun.
The next morning, he came to the East Courtyard with a few hangovers, sucked a bowl of porridge, sighing that he was not as good as before.
After laying the groundwork for a while, seeing that Lin Chaoyang had no reaction, he said, "Then I will go to study the visa next month."
"What visa is available?"
"First see if you can find a university and arrange a short-term job."
"I've studied it, I'm just having a pretty job."
"What a pretty job?"
"The Yale East Asian Research Center is going to offer a course to teach students contemporary Chinese literature. I recommend you to them. Listening to Lin Chaoyang's words, a warm current surged in Li Tuo's heart.
He knew without asking, this must have been what Lin Chaoyang had contacted him last night.
Li Tuo stepped forward and hugged Lin Chaoyang, "Thank you, Chaoyang!"
"When did you become so pretentious?" Lin Chaoyang teased.
Li Tuo put down his arm, "You are kind to you, and you are serious!"
After saying that, he patted Lin Chaoyang on the arm, "Okay, let's go!"
Lin Chaoyang asked at his back, "Why don't you put on a drink before leaving?"
"It's not a wife, why are you making a drink!" Li Tuo said disgusted, and then said, "Then you can do it."
"Pretty!"
Li Tuo wanted to turn around and refute Lin Chaoyang's words, but in order to maintain his free and elegant back, he still endured it.
Half a month later, Xiaoliubukou West Courtyard became lively for a long time.
Lin Chaoyang's appeal in the literary world can be said to be a response, not to mention that he was still "sending off" Li Tuo, and 40 people suddenly came to Xiaoliubukou West Courtyard.
Seeing this scene, Li Tuo felt deeply regretful.
After doing this, he would feel embarrassed to return to China in the future.
"What kind of heart do you guys do? Why did you call so many people?" Li Tuo complained.
Lin Chaoyang shouted, "It's not my fault for this, I haven't made a few calls. If you want to blame, you can only blame your popularity. Everyone is rushing to see you for the last time."
Li Tuo wished he could sew his crow's mouth, and squeezed his smile at everyone while swallowing the bitterness into his stomach.
After a while of melancholy, Li Tuo still put down his face and enjoyed this rare moment of reunion with his friends.
After a lively farewell banquet, everyone dispersed.
A few days later, Capital International Airport.
Nas looked at her watch from time to time, "Dad, the time is almost over, go to the security check."
Li Tuo glanced around the crowd, but never saw anyone, and his heart couldn't help but feel disappointed.
"Uncle Lin and the others probably have a traffic jam," Nas comforted.
Li Tuo turned his head regretfully, "Then-Let's go."
The father and daughter came to the security check passage and after the security check, Nas planned to take Li Tuo to eat something. In order to catch the plane, the father and daughter didn't even have to eat breakfast.
Li Tuo was in a bad mood and asked Nas to eat it by himself.
Nas knew that he had not seen his old friends before leaving, and was in a depressed mood, so he had to stay by his side.
Li Tuo told her not to worry about going to dinner by herself. The father and daughter talked and came to the door of the restaurant.
At this moment, Lin Chaoyang, Chen Jiangong, Zheng Wanlong and others walked out of the restaurant with their stomachs.
"Yeah, Master Tuo, haven't eaten yet?" Chen Jiangong asked casually, picking his teeth.
Li Tuo widened his eyes and looked surprised, "When did you guys come? How did you come in?"
"I came a little earlier than you." Zheng Wanlong replied to him, then turned his head to Chen Jiangong and said, "The restaurant at the airport is really average."
Just now, Li Tuo waited outside for nearly half an hour but saw no one. Unexpectedly, these guys had already come in and left him to eat and drink early.
When Li Tuo thought about waiting for a long time after being disappointed, he was full of anger, "I'll ask you how you came in?"
"Come in!" Zheng Wanlong seemed to have just understood his words, "Chaoyang brought us in. Don't you know him yet?
Air China VIP in P!”
Chen Jiangong gave Zheng Wanlong a thumbs up, "Incisive!"
Zheng Wanlong bowed his hand to reply.
Li Tuo didn't know how many people he asked for to make fun of him now. Bai Wu made him wait for a long time and lost for a long time. He stopped chewing with the few people and rushed into the restaurant and ordered a bunch of things like he didn't want to pay.
Anyway, if there is a Air China VIP, it will be useless to not eat it!
