Chapter 399: You can be willful countless times
The end of the world did not come that day, and the chill grew worse day by day. Heavy snow is falling again in the port city, which means that the end of the year is approaching. Year after year, time flies.
I heard that in another year, the port city will be connected to the high-speed rail. The land on the east side of the second is still under construction, and my mother said that the new house that the family bought is there, and it is a big three-bedroom house. If Jolene returns to Port City in the future, she will be able to have her own room.
The pie was so well drawn, and Jolene was very happy. Originally, I still felt that time was too fast, and the years were fleeting, but now I can't wait for time to go quickly, so that she can take the high-speed train back and forth during the winter and summer vacations, and she can have her own room before getting married.
Jolene went home early during the winter vacation, and Rhubarb found her a job as a newspaper translator, and every night the English manuscript was sent and she translated it into Chinese. It's not easy, the pay is not high, it's better to have free time, and you can exercise yourself.
In the days of waiting for her brother and sister to come home, Jolene finished translating and stared out the window in a daze. When I was a child, I could often hear the sound of the piano coming from downstairs on nights like this. The little boy who plays the piano is as cute as a panda dumpling. Jolene fantasized about how elegant it would be if she could play the piano herself? More than ten years have passed, and the piano downstairs has been quiet for many years, but his voice is heard by more and more people.
The adults living in this courtyard all know that Wei Chenglin is going to become popular, and they often joke with Cheng Lin's mother, saying that she "has good luck", and the singer makes a lot of money, when will she be able to move out of this shabby community? Cheng Lin's mother said seriously, where is this shabby community? This is her home, her and Cheng Lin's home.
At that time, Wei Chenglin was at most a relatively generous level among the student party, and if he bought a house, he would have to work hard to make money.
Cheng Lin has a future, some people are envious, and some people are jealous, but few people can think of the hardships that their mother and son have endured. Where can ordinary families afford hundreds of thousands of yuan a year in tuition? Aunt Zhao gets up early and is greedy for night, and treats herself as a man all the year round; Cheng Lin works part-time day and night in the United States, teaching children to play the piano, running some activities in the Chinese community, and running to participate in singing competitions for which prizes are given, and is often so tired that she falls asleep on the bus. After writing songs to make money, life became more comfortable,
It stands to reason that people who have endured hardships will have a huge desire for success, and will want to show the most successful side in front of those who have crushed them. But Chenglin's mother is still as simple as ever, and often tells Wei Chenglin not to spend all his time drinking, but to devote all his thoughts to the right path.
Therefore, Li Lanzhi often said: "No one can succeed casually, those who are blushing, first ask yourself if you can endure hardships, whether you can be like your Aunt Zhao, no matter good or bad, you do your duty." ”
Qiao Lin lay on the bed, crossed Erlang's legs, and listened to Wei Chenglin's songs leisurely, as if he was still playing the piano downstairs.
This year, my brothers and sisters are very busy with work, and they can only come back when they get the New Year. My brother was especially busy, and since he returned to China, he has been mysterious, asking him what he is doing, he is either writing or having a meeting.
Jolene wondered if her brother had gone as an agent, so she got back a lot of information about foreign armies and worked overtime to translate them. She told her parents about the plot of her brain, and her father smiled: "When your brother comes back, you can ask him, he is the one who spies on the military situation, not us." ”
Damn, the words "spying on military intelligence" are really cool. In Jolene's brain, her brother turned into a sharp knife and plunged into the heart of the foreign army.
Although she is the only one at home, Jolene is not alone at all, she meets her old classmates who have not been seen for a long time, goes to the second middle school to practice dance, and every day passes quickly. and Sun Ruiyang's guy, who makes a surprise from time to time. At eleven o'clock one night, Qiao Lin was about to fall asleep after swiping her mobile phone, Sun Ruiyang asked her to go downstairs, and he waited for her downstairs.
As if eloping in the middle of the night, Qiao Lin tiptoed out of the house, and Sun Ruiyang was waiting for her downstairs. Qiao Lin scolded him for whether he was crazy, and Sun Ruiyang said with a smile: "It's snowing, I want to watch it with you." ”
......
After so many years, this guy still wants to play one out at a time.
Sun Ruiyang took out two lollipops and said, "After eating the candy, let's go back to our respective homes, okay?"
The two didn't talk much, just sat on the swing and watched the snow, and occasionally looked at each other, and they would smile. Jolene wanted to stay with him a little longer, but the sugar was already gone.
Sun Ruiyang held her hand, rubbed her cold cheeks again, and said, "You go up first, and I'll leave when you get home." ”
Jolene obediently went upstairs and waved goodbye to him in the kitchen. As a result, as soon as I turned around, I saw my sleepy-eyed mother. Jolene shuddered and nearly fell to the ground.
"Why don't you sleep, what are you hanging around in the kitchen?"
"I, I'm hungry......"
Li Lanzhi glared at her and went to the toilet. Qiao Lin escaped death and sent Sun Ruiyang a WeChat message, but Sun Ruiyang replied with two words - stimulus.
This guy, if he has a healthy body, then he must live a more exciting life than his brother.
Wen Jing's Weibo is still changing unhurriedly, and after returning from the UK, she also went to the Northeast to take a set of photos. Full of vitality, it's exactly like a college student, and I can't tell that I've become a wife at all.
At this time last year, the family betrothed them in accordance with the rules of Hong Kong City. Li Lanzhi gave her a set of gold jewelry and gave her 10,000 and 1 yuan, which means one in a million.
Wen Jing said that the jewelry can be accepted, but the money is not needed. Lao Qiao said: "Take it, it's not easy to support a family, and we can't give you too much, you can take it back to subsidize a little family." ”
Qiao Nan put the money away for Wen Jing, Li Lanzhi put jewelry on her, Wen Jing burst into tears, she said that no one has ever bought her jewelry when she grows up, if her mother sees this scene, she will definitely be very pleased!
Wen Jing has been wearing that set of jewelry, and during a certain shooting, she met a competitor, who said in a weird way: "Where did you buy this chain? It looks more old-fashioned than my mother's one." ”
Wen Jing said calmly: "It must be older than your mother, this is the heirloom of my husband's family." ”
To put it mildly, the value of this necklace and the importance that her husband's family attached to her made the man choke and roll his eyes. Wen Jingwan smiled and said, "I'll shoot it first, you slowly melt." ”
In the past six months, Wen Jing has significantly reduced her workload, because she has returned to school. The colleague squeezed her again: "Isn't it just an adult education? It's useless to read it, it's better to make more money." ”
"A piece of steamed bread is useless to the rich. But for a poor man who is about to starve to death, it can save his life. Wen Jing said: "Reading is the same, you have capital, maybe it doesn't matter if you read or not, but for an illiterate person, it is useful to know one more word." ”
The man was once again blocked by her, and began to envy Wen Jing's intellectual beauty flowing from her body again. As everyone knows, Wen Jing also doubted the meaning of re-reading, the paragraph she said was told to her by her lover, and after listening to it, she suddenly became enlightened. Her electrician, I don't know how many people have been a life coach.
When Qiao Nan took Wen Jing back to her hometown, she was still wearing the gold necklace around her neck that was a little rustic to her. But when she wore it on her body, Li Lanzhi was very happy, this girl really cherished her heart!
What the Qiao family and his wife didn't expect was that as soon as Wen Jing entered the door this time, she called them "Mom and Dad" very eagerly. Old Qiao Le blossomed and said, "I am happy that you call me like this. However, it is generally after getting married, I change my words at the wedding, and I will tell you...... Your mother will also give you a red envelope as a change of mouth fee. ”
"Why is there so much red tape?" Qiao Nan said heartily: "We are married, shouldn't we change our words?"
Lao Qiao also became stubborn: "The ceremony still has to be there......"
As soon as this topic opened, the family wanted to ask when the two would have their wedding. Qiao Nan and Wen Jing both wanted to avoid this question and stopped arguing with Lao Qiao.
When they go home this time, they can justifiably live in a hotel outside, and they can have a small space that belongs to the couple. While eating at noon, Qiao Nan cleared his throat and asked, "Have you noticed any changes in me?"
Jolene chewed mackerel dumplings and looked at her brother for a long time, but she didn't see any changes. Qiao Lu squinted her eyes and said, "Let me see, you don't seem to be wearing contact lenses!"
"It's still my sister who is amazing!"
Old Qiao and his wife were still stunned, not knowing what was going on, Qiao Nan said loudly: "Dad, Mom, I don't need to wear glasses in the future." ”
......
......
......
Old Qiao couldn't eat anymore, and he was trembling: "What's the matter, you, you speak slowly!"
"I had surgery in the UK and now my vision in my right eye is back to 1.0. ”
This news is not a bombshell, but a string of festive fireworks, except for Qiao Nan and Wen Jing, the other family members don't know what to do, and Li Lanzhi cried even more.
Three years ago, God cruelly took away his eyesight. He endured countless hardships, and finally waited for the day of recovery.
Wen Jing wiped away Li Lanzhi's tears, told her the ins and outs, and finally said: "The day of the first operation happened to be the day when we held our wedding. I'm afraid that the surgery won't be successful, and I don't dare to tell you the truth. Mom and Dad, I'm really sorry, we are still too selfish to let you work in vain. ”
Old Qiao hurriedly said: "You have been selfish countless times about such a thing, and I don't have any opinion. ”
Qiao Lu said thoughtfully: "I should have guessed the photo you sent me of the gun at that time." Alas, I'm still too sluggish!"
"I wanted to tell you at the time, but I was afraid that there would be problems in the future, so I endured it and didn't say anything. Alas, I've had a hard time hiding it!"
At noon that day, the whole family drank more or less, but Wen Jing did not drink. As soon as she finished eating, Jolene was so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes and slipped home to sleep.
Qiao Nan said: "I just have something to discuss with you, Qiao Lin is not here, and the confidentiality of this meeting will be guaranteed." ”
