Wei Chuan only stayed in Yanqing for three days before leaving. Meng Tang's life continued as usual, with Meng Yuchun staying in the workshop in the north courtyard all day long.
In order to protect the wood in the workshop, both temperature and humidity are important.
Huge houses like the Meng family do not rely on air conditioning. They adjust the temperature through the building structure.
The old man also doesn’t like modern temperature and humidity regulators, and basically relies on old methods to maintain them.
There are corresponding methods throughout the year. In summer, when it is hot and rainy, the humidity will be relatively high. Quicklime and charcoal will be used to absorb moisture.
However, the conditions are still difficult, especially in the early years, with frostbite in winter and prickly heat in summer...
Now in October, the temperature is not bad, but when I start to use my hands, I sweat again and again.
At the end of the day, Meng Tang was paralyzed from exhaustion. Fortunately, Sister Fang took care of him.
Back to school after the National Day, Wei Chuan was not at school. He and the team went out to do charity.
Meng Tang met Shi Lan at the door of the women's dormitory, and the two went upstairs together.
"What did you bring?" Shi Lan glanced down.
As soon as he entered the door, the atmosphere was not right. Xie Lingyin's eyes were a little red. Yang Ke was standing next to her and looked towards the door when he heard the movement.
“Why are you crying?” Shi Lan asked carelessly, “Did Xu Heqing bully you?” "I'll go, there's a quarrel."
"I'll go." Shi Lan complained for her, "Your brother, that loser, can do it, but you can't, right?"
Meng Tang asked: " What about you, what are your plans?” Yang Ke comforted her, "It's absolutely okay to go to graduate school. You'll still have to come back. We still have us."
She couldn't stay in that patriarchal home for a moment.
The only good thing is that my friends and loved ones are all here.
Meng Tang brought the crab over and said, "I brought it from home. Let's eat some first and talk while eating."
Xie Lingyin nodded.
The choked crabs brought by Meng Tang were really delicious, and Sister Fang made a way to cater to the public's taste.
Several people gathered around and ate all the crabs that Meng Tang had brought.
Meng Tang wiped his hands with a wet tissue. It was a pity that Wei Chuan was not in school, otherwise he could have a taste.
Hence the charity project for three days. The first thing Wei Chuan did when he got off the bus was to call Meng Tang.
Meng Tang was speechless for a while looking at his bald electric car, and felt inexplicably guilty when he received a call from Wei Chuan.
"Where are you?" Wei Chuan asked when he came up, "I'm back, on Suiying Road in the school."
Meng Tang replied: "Then wait for me over there, I've already finished class."
"Okay."
There was a crowd of people after class. They just came out of the teaching building, and the electric scooters and bicycles piled up could not be squeezed.
After being stuck in traffic for five minutes, Meng Tang finally broke out of the crowd.
Most of the time passed and Meng Tang had not yet appeared. Wei Chuan was a little anxious. Just as he was about to make a call, Meng Tang rode over from the end of the alley and waved to him with one hand free.
"Be careful." Wei Chuan stepped forward to greet him, his smile suddenly froze, "Where are the things?"
Meng Tang put his legs on the ground and shrugged at him: "What do you think?"
"Who are these people?" Wei Chuan was speechless, "How could you be so cruel as to make such a beautiful car look bald?"
Meng Tang laughed: "When you bought it, I thought it wouldn't last long. , Yang Ke had done this before, and in less than a week, even the car mat was gone. At least they left one for me. "
"People's hearts are sinister." Wei Chuan sighed, "Let's go eat."
Meng Tang gave him the car. In this case, the two of them could barely leave.
Wei Chuan didn't answer and got on the back seat, his feet sliding on the ground, leaving Meng Tang speechless.
"Have you missed me these days?" Wei Chuan asked Meng Tang while skating and tilting his head.
Mengtang turned the accelerator to the end, and his speed was not as fast as others.
"Come down quickly." Meng Tang stopped helplessly, "When can I eat?"
Wei Chuan stood up, held her shoulders with both hands, bent down and said in her ear: "Yes, when can I eat?"
Meng Tang didn't understand the meaning, twisted the handle, and walked all the way to the cafeteria.
After dinner, Wei Chuan sat down next to her.
Meng Tang turned his face and said, "The charity is over, right? Are you going to stay in school all the time?"
"There will be special off-campus training this year." Wei Chuan laughed, "I will go out for a while in November, and come back in December to make up for classes and continue training to prepare for next year's regional competition."
Speaking of December, Meng Tang remembered Wei Chuan's birthday.
"According to what you said, your birthday is at school this year, right?"
Wei Chuan laughed: "It should be at school, what? Are you preparing a birthday gift for me so early?"
Meng Tang said: "I just want to ask casually, if you are not in school, if I am prepared, then..."
Hence "If you dare to say waste, I will kiss you here." Wei Chuan stretched out his index finger and sounded threatening.
Meng Tang swallowed the words silently and smiled stupidly at him: "Eat."
Wei Chuan snorted and buried himself in his meal.
After dinner, I naturally didn’t go back to the dormitory. After all, I had to use all the time I had to fall in love.
There are many places in the school that are suitable for young lovers. Wei Chuan bought her a cup of milk tea and took her to sit down by the lake.
There were many young lovers scattered around. Wei Chuan put his arm around Meng Tang's waist and said, "Why do you feel so thin again? Have you eaten well?"
"Eat." Meng Tang said helplessly, "My appetite is so big, I can't hold it back. Besides, it's still hot in the past two days. I'll have an appetite when the temperature drops."
In fact, she was too tired to eat.
Every day when I open my eyes, I am busy with professional classes, and I have to spend the rest of the time in the wood carving studio.
I don’t go back to the dormitory until eleven o’clock in the evening. No one can stand this every day.
"No, you really need to ask my mother to patch it up for you." Wei Chuan touched Meng Tang's face, "Face has flesh to look good, you know?"
Meng Tang fell into his arms and after a while, asked: "Did Xu Heqing talk about Lingyin in the dormitory?"
"I mentioned it, it seems to be about studying abroad." Wei Chuan lowered his head, "Why did you suddenly say this?"
Mengtang said: "When Lingyin was a sophomore, she was planning to study as an exchange student in her junior year, but her family didn't agree. She wouldn't go if she didn't want to go. After graduation, she went abroad to study for graduate school and never came back. Does Xu Heqing know this?"
"I said he feels like he has eaten dynamite these days." Wei Chuan said, "It seems that he is worried about Xie Lingyin. Xu Heqing's family has paved the way for his future. If Xie Lingyin leaves after graduation, they will definitely break up."
"Why?" Meng Tang sat up, "There is no way Lingyin will not come back."
Wei Chuan: "Going abroad for Xu Heqing's major is like starting all over again. It is unlikely that he will go abroad. If Xie Lingyin really goes, the outcome is really bad."
Long-distance relationships are difficult, let alone relationships in a foreign country.
But this is Xie Lingyin's life, and no one can interfere, including Xu Heqing.
Facts have proved that Meng Tang's sixth sense is still very accurate.
After more than two months of fighting, Xie Lingyin and Xu Heqing broke up.
Xie Lingyin braved the cold December rain and drank until she was half alive.
Mengtang, Shi Lan, and Yang Ke took care of him most of the night.
Meng Tang patted Shi Lan: "I'm going to call Wei Chuan."
"Go and ask Xu Heqing what's going on."
Meng Tang also meant the same. She was sweating from taking care of Xie Lingyin, turned around, took off her scarf, opened her coat, and went to the balcony with her mobile phone.
Wei Chuan always answered her calls very quickly. After he answered the call, he said, "I just wanted to call you. Did Xie Lingyin drink too?"
"She is already unconscious." Meng Tang said, "From what you said, Xu Heqing also drank?"
Wei Chuan: "I drank, and now I'm drunk and crazy, talking a lot of nonsense."
Meng Tang asked tentatively: "Did we break up?"
"We should break up, right? Why else would we drink so much?" Wei Chuan looked back at the room, "But it must have been an angry talk, they both have a criminal record."
Mengtang: "...saying breakup again and again, can you withstand such consumption?"< br/>
Wei Chuan sighed: "It's different this time. Usually it's just a small fight and coaxing. This time it's about future choices, and people don't know how to persuade them."
Xie Lingyin's family is too speechless.
Xu Heqing is an only son. Although he had trouble with his family when he chose his major before, now he is paving the way for his future overtly and covertly.
“If Xu Heqing wants to marry Xie Lingyin, he will definitely need the support of his family.” Wei Chuan thought for a while and then told Meng Tang, “Only by improving his career can he rescue Xie Lingyin from the mire of patriarchal preference. Come, but Xie Lingyin wants to go abroad to study for graduate school, and I can understand that, they have to communicate on this matter themselves."
Meng Tang sniffed, sneezed, and a gust of cold wind blew by, and his body trembled subconsciously.
"Are you outside?" Wei Chuan frowned, "On the balcony?"
Meng Tang said "Yeah": "They are taking care of Lingyin, I called you when I came out."
"It's so cold outside, hurry in." Wei Chuan heard her sneezing, and his heart tightened, "Don't catch another cold."
"It's okay." Meng Tang was optimistic, "I go to the gym at least twice a week during this period, and I still have some resistance."
The sweat on her neck had already been dried by the cold wind, and another gust of wind blew over, and she unconsciously tightened her coat.
Wei Chuan was still worried: "Let's go back to the dormitory first. They have to talk about this matter themselves."
"Okay." Meng Tang turned around and said good night.
She fell asleep soon after washing, but did not get up the next day.
The quilt was boiling hot, the joints all over my body were sore and painful, and my throat was almost smoking.
Meng Tang opened his eyes in confusion, feeling that he shouldn't have said that he was resistant last night. The slap on his face made a snapping sound.
