Volume 1 The Entry of the Demons Chapter 7 Get on the train and go to propose
I sat on the couch and took out my cigarette, which was empty. Unlucky, I knew I had asked that kid to leave the cigarette for me. When I took out the notepad and brocade box and put them on the table, I was happy again. It's okay, the kid went home, I simply said hello to the customer and rested for a few days, and I also booked a ticket to go to the door tomorrow.
Thinking of this, I took out the photo again, ah, it's really handsome. When I think of such a beautiful woman who is like a flower and jade, it is my fiancΓ©e, it is called a beauty. I looked at the bottom right corner of the photo, it said 2013/08/24, well, five years ago, I calculated, it had to be a twenty-year-old girl, no wonder it was so smart.
At this time, just a few years after graduating from college, I just got rid of the childishness of a student and brought a bit of the mature and elegant temperament of a professional woman. I don't dare to think about it, I don't dare to think about it, when I think about it, my blood gushes up, and when I think about it, I want to have a nosebleed. No, no, wipe it quickly.
Wait, I seem to have overlooked something. I'm going to propose, but I haven't done it.
I can't go over and bang on the door alone, a white-bearded uncle came out of the door, the uncle asked me what are you doing, I said uncle, I came to propose, the uncle said good, bring out a big beauty, this is your daughter-in-law, take it home, I bow and thank you, uncle, it's over. I guess I'm going to do that, and I should have asked the security guard to let me out when I hit the door. Thinking of this, I quickly picked up my phone and called my grandfather.
"Master, I'm going to propose marriage tomorrow. "Okay, go early and come back early. "No, I'm talking about proposing. "It's a proposal. "I'm talking about proposing, not going to the door. "It's about proposing, go. β
I was helpless, "Master, I'm so rushing to propose marriage, I won't let people be arrested as mentally ill." "No, Old Man Su is a dear. "No, isn't it inappropriate for me to go so empty-handed." Why don't you come with me? β
"You unlucky boy, you will go if you want to go, what are you afraid of, it is to propose marriage and not to let you collect debts. "Master, who owes you money, or I'll go and collect the debt for you." "Yes, you leave tomorrow, I'll call Old Man Su." β
Hanging on the other side, I deeply feel that there is a generation gap between me and my grandfather, and I guess his idea is still stuck in the old age when he can come to the door with a marriage certificate. To be honest, I still miss the era when I could marry my daughter-in-law with a flashlight. But now, to put it mildly, I'm carrying a flashlight, and I'm just setting up two rows of stage lights at the door, and people may not be with you.
I'm worried, I'm miserable, I can't even pick up a cigarette butt in the ashtray. I thought about it for a long time, gritted my teeth, and forgot it. Ming'er is Ming'er, I'll get two good cigarettes, and then carry two bottles of good wine, is it a whole health care product, don't accept gifts, I'll just go to the ladyboy will visit the door, visit the old man, and talk about it if you don't mention your relatives.
Thinking about it like this, my heart is calmer a lot, I have an advantage as a person, whenever I encounter something that I can't figure out, I don't think about it, where I fall, I lie down. This kind of excellent mentality of not being afraid of death and not being afraid of dying is very cold, which makes me invincible and tried every way. I quickly booked my ticket, went back to my room, packed my luggage, and waited for tomorrow.
The next day, I went to the store around the corner of the street to buy cigarettes and alcohol, and the clerk was poor with me, "Brother Li, give gifts, you are usually not of this grade." "Less nonsense, give me the fidelity of this thing, brother, I'm really going to give gifts this time, if this is fake, my life will be over, and if I'm done, I'll jump into the river." "Don't, you have a great future, so you can't think about it. β
"Yes, I jumped into the river, I climbed up again after jumping into the river, and I was lying in front of your store with stinky water and dirty mud, and I said to someone: Okay, okay, give some, I let this store be pitted, and my life will be ruined." The clerk listened to me terriblely, "Don't don't, fidelity and fidelity, specify fidelity, even if it's not true, I have to go and get you the real thing." β
Caught up with the car with my luggage, and this time with good luck, by the window seat. I had just put my luggage on the shelf when I saw a young woman dragging a large suitcase. Looks like it's next door to me. I hurriedly said, "Sister, are you sitting here?" I'll give you a hand and put the box on it. β
The young woman smiled and thanked her, and I lifted the box with a quick hand. When she was seated, the young woman kept looking out the back door. "What's the matter, eldest sister, there are still people who haven't come up?" Xu just asked me to help, and the young woman was also cheerful, "Yes, it's also this carriage, he just said that he was going to buy something, and he hasn't come up yet." β
As he spoke, he saw a middle-aged man walking in the carriage, wearing glasses, looking polite, the young woman hurriedly beckoned to him, the man walked closer and greeted the young woman, looked at the ticket, "I'm in the back." β
After bending down to lift the suitcase and put it up, but it seemed a little heavy, I got up and said, "I'll give you a hand." "The man still wants to refuse, probably because he wants to show it in front of the young woman, but this big brother's physical fitness, tsk, it is estimated that he is an office-sitter, or he is a pedant, and his body is relatively thin, even if he can put it on, he is not as chic and freehand as me.
I didn't know what was in the box, so I hurriedly walked out and helped him carry it. The man sat down and exhaled softly, took out a neatly folded handkerchief from his suit, and gently wiped the fine sweat from his head.
When I saw it, he was sitting in the back anyway, "You two are together, then you sit in the front, and I'll sit here." "Oh, no, no, it's too much trouble. "It's okay, it's okay, it's easy for you two to talk, I'm alone anyway." β
The young woman saw that the two of us were letting go, so she said: "Jingting, don't be polite to the little brother, let the people come and go, and block the people behind." β
When I looked, it was true that several people behind us couldn't get past pushing the box, so the man named Jingting had to get up and sit in the front, and I let him sit in the back. The young woman threw me a grateful smile and handed me a bottle of mineral water, "Thank you." I took it and waved my hand to show that you were welcome.
After a while, the car started, I was idle, I leaned on the back of the chair in a daze, to be honest, although I had broken the jar last night, but just such a person stupidly rushed to see the future daughter-in-law's family, and my heart was still bottomless.
I'm squinting, I just watched the two people in front of me pondering, I have an occupational disease, that is, when I'm bored, I will watch others do character profiles, and then make up characters for them, and when inspiration comes, I can make up a story for them, and I don't write novels.
I thought they should be a couple, these two people are really right, although the man is a little thin, but it is more in line with his temperament, he looks no more than fifty years old, it is possible to say forty, but these people are young, and they have to be high. It seems that he is definitely not the top of the company, and the businessman is not full of fat brains these days, and there are small secretaries waiting for him in and out.
It's not like doing technology, no matter how senior the technology is, the details that have been polished before can also be reflected. Just now I saw that although his hands were old, they were still quite delicate, not like a person who had done any heavy work. It looks like an academic, maybe a university teacher, maybe a professor.
As for the young woman, she looked younger, but the subtle crow's feet still betrayed her age, and her demeanor was elegant, modest and courteous, and there was no shrewdness of a businessman, but there was a sense of warmth. Maybe it's a full-time wife, according to the age of the two of them, the children should go to college, and it should be earlier, the children have come out to work, and it is the time to enjoy happiness, and there is no need to revolve around the children every day.
If I had a job, I would still prefer to be as academic as her husband. Maybe it's the same unit, maybe it's just that the two childhood sweethearts have no guesses, they were admitted to the same university together, and then they engaged in the same job and became colleagues, so the talented and beautiful women were perfectly matched, and the two became husband and wife, perfect.
Don't look at me as a bachelor, in fact, I am very envious of this kind of loving couple. The man sat upright and straight, and I could see his black and gray hair through the back of the chair. The woman was half-leaning on the window, looking at the man, talking from time to time, and her voice was so low that I couldn't hear clearly. Maybe it's talking about this journey, maybe it's talking about children. How to look at how to feel harmonious.
I fell asleep while I was thinking. It wasn't until the train arrived at the station that I felt someone next to me, and when I looked up, I saw that the man was still reaching for luggage. I wiped the saliva from the corner of my mouth and hurriedly stood up and said I'm coming, I'll come, help the two of them move their luggage down, and then drag their luggage and the three of them off the train.
Before we reached the exit of the station, the young woman was going to the bathroom, and we were waiting next to us. Originally, I was going to go straight out of the station, but the man pulled me and said that I would smoke a cigarette together. The two of us were standing next to me, and I saw him tear open the seal of a pack of soft box cigarettes, skillfully turn it upside down and pause on his left hand, and then two or three cigarettes came out, and he handed me the cigarette case, and I smoked one, and hurriedly felt out the fire and lit it for him.
Seeing him take a long puff of cigarette, I smiled and said, "Big brother, it's an old trick." β
The man was stunned for a moment, maybe no one had spoken to him in such a tone as me, and said with a smile: "Yes, I've been smoking for decades, but now I can't do it, the family is strictly controlled, the wife is in charge, and the daughter is still in charge, so I can smoke two mouthfuls when I am not at home." β
"I think the eldest sister is very easy-going, and you don't care if you smoke? "I wondered about the young woman just now, and I really couldn't imagine her pointing at her husband and saying that you are not allowed to smoke.
The man was stunned when he heard this, and just wanted to explain something, the young woman wiped his hands and walked over, seeing that the two of us were swallowing clouds and spitting fog with a cigarette in one person, I just finished thinking about the calf, this time I will catch it, but I didn't expect the man to care, just slightly sideways half a step, and changed the cigarette to one hand.
The young woman smiled and said, "What are you talking about, it's up to the two of you from afar, and you don't have any image of swallowing clouds and spitting fog." "No, I just said that you husband and wife are in love. "I thought in my heart that it was estimated that this young woman was not good at giving face to a man in front of outsiders, so I didn't care about him smoking, of course I couldn't mention this stubble, so I casually talked about it.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I said this, the young woman's face turned crimson, and she squinted at the man. The man kept coughing, waving his hand at me as he coughed, and seemed to choke on the cigarette. I wondered what that meant.
The man relieved his breath and quickly explained to me: "No, no, little brother, you misunderstood, we are colleagues, colleagues, not husband and wife." "I'm a little embarrassed, damn, I overmade up for it, and I gave the wrong mandarin duck score, and I hurriedly apologized again and again.
After smoking, the man asked me where I was going, and I said that I would come to find someone, and I would go by myself if it was okay, and I guess I had to book a hotel first, so that they could go on their own. The man didn't say much, and the three of them just went out of the station and separated.
