Chapter 8 The Test of the Bullfrog
Zhang Shi enriched Jinzi's life in this way, sometimes after work, Jin Zi would go to Zhang Shi's 4S store to wait for him, and every time Zhang Shi's colleagues saw Jin coming, they would also take a telegraph and hurriedly call Zhang Shi. Zhang Shi's working hours are very irregular, the only thing that is certain is that he never has weekends and statutory holidays, because the more everyone has a holiday, the busier he is, so they usually date on weekday nights, and Zhang Shi always feels very indebted to gold.
Once they made an appointment to wait for Zhang Shi to get off work to watch a movie, it turned out that after the movie ended, Zhang Shi's mobile phone had more than a dozen missed calls, it turned out that Zhang Shi's leaders suddenly came to an impromptu meeting at night, Zhang Shi was not there when the roll call was called, Jin Zi didn't know what kind of punishment Zhang Shi would receive, he could only listen to Zhang Shi while explaining to the supervisor, while comforting her that she was fine, Jin Zi couldn't help but feel aggrieved for Zhang Shi, it was really not easy for him to have a girlfriend on a normal date, Jin Zi thought of a sentence: Boys in their twenties are moving bricks, if you lift bricks, he can't hold you, if you put down bricks, he can't support you。
To Jinzi's surprise, the unprecedented Zhang Shi arranged a Saturday date, he wanted to take her to a nearby large playground to play for a day, in order to make up for the loss that he usually could not accompany Jinzi, Jinzi always said that Zhang Shi was a person without a plan, this time Zhang Shi also took out a full schedule to Jinzi, which made Jinzi very surprised. So according to Zhang Shi's plan, they spent a pleasant day at the playground, and when they rode the roller coaster, they also left a photo of the people in the car with hideous faces.
In her heart, Zhang Shi is indeed the person who does not understand romance the most, and even the candles and balloons that Jin Zi inadvertently found to confess are also what Zhang Shi originally planned to use when he confessed to Jin Zi but did not use them, because Jin Zi was angry at that time and deleted Zhang Shi's WeChat. Jin Zi did have a lot of changes after meeting Zhang Shi, she was affected by Zhang Shi's sunny and simple personality, in Zhang Shi's eyes, the people around her are good people, but Jin Zi often likes to speculate on the dark side of people's hearts, and always feels that good people are sometimes not so good people. The gold is slowly warmed by Zhang Shi, and sometimes it is also jumped by Zhang Shi's wooden and straight male straight feet.
Jin Zi likes to eat pickled pepper bullfrogs, and that day she took Zhang Shi to one of her favorite bullfrog restaurants on a whim. During the meal, Jin Zi felt that Zhang Shi did not eat as much as usual, so he asked him, "Are you uncomfortable?" Zhang Shi immediately replied: "No, there is no discomfort." After eating, the two of them walked around for a while and then went home. Zhang Shi will drive the little white car back to the old community every day, he found a place where only the gold car can stop, it is also a very convenient location, every time he will help the gold park the little white car, and then take a taxi or go to the nearby subway station to go home, the two people live in the south and north of the city, so every time about half an hour after the gold went home and washed, she received the news that Zhang Shi had just arrived home. For Zhang Shi, although every date is time-consuming and laborious, as long as he can see Jinzi, he is extremely happy.
Jin Zi was when he went to Zhang Shi's house for dinner and listened to Zhang Shi's mother, Zhang Shi didn't eat bullfrogs since he was a child, and so did Zhang Shi's father, Zhang Shi got off work late that day, and Jin Zi asked him after seeing him: "Why didn't you tell me that day that you don't eat bullfrogs?" Zhang Shi replied with a smile: "You don't like to eat very much, I'm afraid that I said that you are not happy, so I won't eat it." Jin Zi recognized Zhang Shi in his heart at that moment, because love is not two people like the same thing, but the other party can tolerate what he doesn't like for you, Jin Zi feels that this is enough.
The marriage was proposed by Zhang Shi's family first, because Jin Zi was two years older than Zhang Shi, and it happened that next year was Zhang Shi's natal year, and if he didn't get married this year, he would have to wait for a year and a half before he could get married. Jin Zi was in a difficult situation, after all, her mother still didn't agree. So she first took Zhang Shi to her aunt's house and asked her husband and aunt to help persuade her mother.
Both the uncle-in-law and the aunt think that Zhang Shi is a good child, but the difficulty is that the family conditions are not ideal, and after several communications, there is no result, so the relationship can only be less tense, and Jin Zi also had a head-on conflict with his mother due to the outbreak of contradictions.
Jin Zi sent a message to her mother, saying: "I have also tried to find conditions that are okay, but people do not accept me, what can I do? Now that I have met someone I like, why do you have such a strong opposition before you have even seen it!" Mother also choked back: "We are all from the past, I just don't look good at you, material is the basis of life, and one day I am afraid that you will regret it!" Jin Zi was speechless, and after several quarrels, the two did not communicate with each other.
Zhang Shi's parents also learned about Jinzi's mother's attitude, so they went to Aunt Jinzi's house first and explained their attitude, they liked Jin very much, but they were also afraid that Zhang Shi's wood bump would be difficult to find a daughter-in-law, so they wanted Jin Zi and Zhang Shi to get married as soon as possible, so they could let go of the big stone in their hearts, although the savings were not much, but it was enough to pay a down payment for a house in this city for Jin Zi and Zhang Shi, and the name of the house could be written by anyone. They can also buy a plane ticket to Kaneko's hometown and talk to Kaneko's parents about it in person. Jinzi's uncle-in-law and Jinzi's father to communicate, the uncle-in-law is a true temperament, he feels that as long as the child is willing, parents should not block too much, Jinzi's cousin is married to a cousin-in-law who was not in good conditions at the time, although the two people are sometimes a little tighter, but the relationship between husband and wife is very stable and harmonious, and later has a daughter Xiaoyi, and life is quite happy, but the attitude of the aunt is still not optimistic about the two, and the aunt did not go when the cousin held the wedding, which also became the regret of the cousin's life.
Jinzi's father promised that Jinzi would take Jinzi's mother to their city to meet Zhang Shi's parents and see how Zhang Shi was doing, and Jin Zi was very happy. Zhang Shi also noticed that Jin Zi was in a cold war with her mother, he had seen that the conversation between Jin Zi and his mother was still on the last message before, he was very worried about Jinzi, and he didn't want Jin Zi to have an unpleasant relationship with his family, Jin Zi could only comfort him that he was fine, she and her mother had been like this since she was a child, and she was used to it.
After two weeks, Jinzi's parents came to this city, it was Zhang Shi who went to the airport to pick them up, Zhang Shi also because he was overly nervous before, he had a big bag around his neck, and after Jinzi's parents settled down at his aunt's house, Jinzi and Zhang Shi began to arrange a dinner for the two families to meet, and Jinzi finally understood what everyone said: marriage is not a matter of two people, it is a matter of two families. In a blink of an eye, the day when the two families met, due to the communication between her uncle and aunt before, Jinzi's mother's attitude eased a lot, Zhang Shi's uncles also came, everyone was very happy at the dinner, and the marriage between Zhang Shi and Jinzi was finalized.
Before leaving, Jinzi's parents also agreed to Jinzi, saying that they would give her a lot of dowry, so that she could cherish the happiness she had worked hard for, and also recognized Zhang Shi as a trustworthy person.
After sending away Jinzi's parents, the two of them entered the process of looking at the house, and the house price at that time didn't know what was going on, like a rocket, all the way up, every day and the day before there were earth-shaking changes, Jin Zi was anxious in his eyes, because Zhang Shi and his parents were waiting for Jin Zi to make a decision, and finally one day Jin couldn't hold on, and he was hospitalized with a severe cold.
Zhang Shi also blamed herself for being a person with no ideas, and the funds on hand were limited, and the house she could buy was getting smaller and smaller, and Jin Zi also smiled helplessly, she understood her mother's worries, her mother had experienced hard times, and she didn't want Jin Zi to also experience the embarrassment of life caused by material things. But young people are like this, they would rather be hit by life and bleed, rather than listen to the advice of their predecessors and be timid, since it is their own choice, then they should also fight to the end.
One morning, when Jin Zi was brushing the house, he saw a house with a reasonable price, so he immediately contacted the agent to look at the house. The environment of the community Jin and Zhang Shi are very like, the only thing Zhang Shi is not satisfied with is that the house is only more than 50 square meters, Jin Zi feels very content, because the current money on hand is only enough to buy such a big house, and the house type is also very reasonable, although there are only more than 50 square meters but there are also two bedrooms, and they are all Chaoyang, each suite also comes with a basement of 4 square meters, as long as it is decorated, it should be very comfortable to live, Jin Zi thought.
"That's it, we bought it. Jin Zi said decisively, and the agent was also taken aback, and said repeatedly: "Okay, okay, let's contact the owner immediately." Zhang Shi also respected Jinzi's decision, communicated with his parents to prepare the money for the house, signed the contract that night, and paid the deposit.
The down payment for the house was more than 300,000 yuan, plus the miscellaneous handling fees and intermediary fees, which were nearly 400,000 yuan. Kaneko has also contacted several renovation companies to prepare for the renovation, and she wants to decorate this small house to the way she wants it to be.
Jin Zi announced her wedding date in the crowd of her, Xiao Yu and Orange, Xiao Yu and Orange didn't expect Jin Zi to decide to get married so soon, Xiao Yu asked Jin Zi: "Have you thought about it, is this speed a bit fast." Kaneko replied: "Let's leave the days to be left to get along slowly after marriage, rather than getting married after two people have consumed all their passions, I hope to leave all those unknowns to the life after marriage." Orange is a gentle girl, she accepts, and since school they have agreed to be each other's bridesmaids, and Kaneko feels extremely content to have them by her side.
Jin Zi also felt her worried life after marriage, the wedding photos before marriage, invitations, candy, and wedding celebrations were all arranged by Jinzi, and the wedding dress and dress were also arranged by Jin Zi in Suzhou, Zhang Shi was willing to accept the arrangement, and he also did his best to arrange the wedding venue and guest accommodation, and he also smiled and comforted him when he heard Jinzi's complaints about him.
The wedding was held in Zhang Shi's hometown of Shandong, and Jinzi's father was very proud to help all the guests of Jinzi's mother's family buy round-trip tickets to Shandong, Xiaoyu and Orange also arrived in advance, and the three of them slept in the same bed for a long time and talked about a lot.
Jin Zi felt that the wedding day was like a battle, she was in charge of being a bride in Meimei, and Zhang Shi broke through the layers of difficulties to take her home. Jin Zi now recalls the process of the wedding: getting up early to put on makeup, going to Zhang Shi's house to put on makeup, going to the hotel to change the wedding dress and makeup, and changing the toast dress and makeup after the ceremony. Later, when I watched the video, I learned that the marriage here in Shandong was a groom, Zhang Shi was tied to a string of crackling firecrackers on his belt by his hairboys, and the wedding scene was blown up, but fortunately, it was raining that day, and he was not tied to the telephone pole by them with tape, and Zhang Shi also broke out in a cold sweat after seeing such a large roll of tape in the car later.
The regret of the gold wedding is that the wedding dress is too long, in fact, the tail does not need three meters, one and a half meters is enough, and then when the father took her hand and handed him over to Zhang Shi, the gold actually felt the joy of her father, before she watched others get married, those fathers were reluctant, and some tears handed over their daughters, sure enough, they were not raised since childhood, the feelings were not so deep, and the gold had no conscience.
After the wedding, Zhang Shi and Jinzi's parents went back to the north to set up a banquet, Jinzi may have been tired these days, always feel very uncomfortable, Jinzi's father took the two of them to climb a very high mountain, the wind on the mountain was very strong, and when he came home at night, Jinzi fell ill with a high fever.
At first, everyone still had some superstitious thoughts, saying that they didn't take Jin Zi and Zhang Shi to the grave of Jinzi's grandparents when they collided with something, and also used local methods to "exorcise evil spirits" for Jinzi, Jin Zi lay on the bed in a daze, only to see her mother take an egg and turn it around her head a few times, and then said to herself: "I have money, rice, and food, come and follow me." Then he walked out of the gold room, walked out of the door again, and threw the egg in one place.
The next day, Jin did not get better, and there were many small red bumps on his body, and after being fully armed, Jin was taken to the hospital, and the doctor carefully examined them and said to everyone: "This is chickenpox, I will prescribe some medicine for you, take it back and eat." Jin Zi and his family were surprised, because chickenpox is a disease only for children, and it is rare to hear of people as big as Jin Zi getting chickenpox, and Jin Zi also remembers that her grandmother said that when she took her back to her hometown in Hebei for the first time at the age of three, Jin Zi had chickenpox once. But the doctor was very sure that chickenpox is a disease that only occurs once in a lifetime, and it should not be chickenpox when Jin was young, but some other disease.
As a result, Kaneko was ridiculed by everyone during her rest at home, and they all said that they had heard that the bride had chickenpox for the first time. Jinzi's niece also complained that Jin Zi was not angry, and once she went home for so long, she finally finished her homework and wanted to play with her, but Jin Zi had chickenpox, and she was forbidden by her mother to meet Jinzi because she had no chickenpox, and Jin Zi couldn't cry or laugh.
Zhang Shi has never had chickenpox, but he still lives with Jin Zi every day, and Jin Zi asked him: "Aren't you afraid that I will infect you?" Zhang Shi said: "I'm not afraid, if you are infected, you will feel uncomfortable together, anyway, sooner or later." "With Zhang Shi by his side, the gold is much more down-to-earth.
After the condition improved slightly, Jin Zi and Zhang Shi returned to the original city, and the house was almost renovated. Neither of them had time for their honeymoon, so they returned to their respective jobs as soon as possible. Jin Zi and Zhang Shi lived at Zhang Shi's sister's house temporarily before moving, and her mother-in-law heard that Jin Zi was sick when she came home and came to take care of Jin Zi, and every day after work, there was a cooked meal on the table. Jin Zi felt very warm, it turned out that a suitable marriage is not only with the person you like, but also having a good mother-in-law is more important for a long-term married life.
Jin Zi is very envious of Zhang Shi, because his relationship with his parents is something that Jin Zi has never had since he was a child, although Zhang Shi also had the experience of left-behind children when he was a child, and he also experienced unbearable school violence, but his parents' love for Zhang Shi can really make people feel that no matter what Zhang Shi decides, his parents are the first to support, and if they encounter any problems, they will also ask Zhang Shi's opinion as soon as possible, Jin Zi can feel that Zhang Shi is their most important person, and this feeling of being valued by his family is something that Jin Zi has never experienced。 Kaneko remembered a book she had read before, called "Intimate Relationships", which wrote that most people are unconsciously looking for what their childhood lacked when looking for a partner, and sometimes the conflict erupts not because of the contradiction itself, but because of the harm from the shadow of childhood a long time ago, and most of this damage is related to the original family.
Jin Zi often asks Zhang Shi if he regrets choosing himself, and Zhang Shi always affirms that meeting gold is the luckiest thing in his life. Jin Zi smiled bitterly, after being diagnosed with depression, Jin Zi hated everyone, but felt sorry for Zhang Shi, he should live a happier life as a sunny person, instead of facing the dark gold every day when he came home, the more Jin Zi felt guilty, the more sad she became, she didn't know what method to use to end all this, so that Zhang Shi could get rid of his big dark clouds without any harm and start a better life again.
Today's dream: Jin Zi dreamed that he came to a small town, the town is beautiful, and there are many small puddles built into squares on the side of the road, and Jin Zi saw that there were many beautiful stones in it, some large and some small, some of various shapes, and some of them had been carved by people. And the gold touched many stones, and came out, small round and white, and black, like jade. If only I could make a backgammon deck, Kaneko thought. Unexpectedly, he was discovered by the management of the town, and Jin Zi ran desperately back to his place with a burden full of stones. Transformed into a weapons researcher. Jin Zi, who calmed down, thought to herself that this was still not good, and she had to leave this place, but the burden was full of stones, which was too heavy, so she was ruthless, and her life was still important, and then she poured out all those stones, and instantly felt a lot easier. When he woke up, he couldn't help but wonder where were the invisible stones in life that made his burden heavier, and how could he pour them out?
