Chapter 120: Next Year
When my grandmother heard what I said, she was silent and did not continue to talk about marriage.
Zhuang Yan was also silent, his brows furrowed slightly, and he couldn't tell the difference between joy and anger.
An aggressive conversation came to an abrupt end, and my grandmother took the lead in going back to her room to sleep, leaving Zhuang Yan and I to look at each other.
"I'm sorry, grandma said those words because she was afraid that I would suffer, she didn't discuss it with me before, don't be too burdened. "I'm in a bad mood, in fact, I have vague expectations for marrying him, but at the same time, I don't want others to decide the progress between us, so I'm conflicted.
I lowered my head, my heart was very sullen, and I looked at the desktop blankly, and my mind was like a mess.
Zhuang Yan walked up to me and gently pulled me up and hugged me in his arms: "Xixi, I don't object to your grandmother's proposal, but I also have concerns. You also know my father's attitude, if you really want to propose, your grandmother will definitely insist on seeing my father, and the scene may not be optimistic at that time. Of course, I could have found someone to pretend to be my dad to complete this proposal, but this deception doesn't make any sense for the time being, so I didn't insist that much just now, you know?"
He often asked me if I understood what he was trying to say, but I knew that he was desperate for me to understand him.
I nodded and hugged him: "I know, don't you have any opinions about us because of my grandmother's words, okay?"
"Hee-hee, don't worry about it. He patted me on the back and pushed me back to my room to sleep.
I originally thought that this matter would end here, but when I complained to Bao Yuanyuan the next day, she criticized me for thinking too much about Zhuang Yan, and said that I was too transparent in front of Zhuang Yan, and this kind of relationship may not be good.
The reason why she said this was that one of the factors that Jiang Yang could attract her was mystery, and with mystery, she couldn't help but know Jiang Yang more. And Zhuang Yan and I are too transparent in some things, so when there is a conflict, the first reaction is to try our best to understand each other, and if you don't understand it thoroughly, you will blame yourself.
I was taken aback by what she said, because sometimes that's how it is.
But I'm not worried that this way of getting along will affect our relationship, we have lived together for a while, and at the moment everything is harmonious, and we can deal with conflicts when there are conflicts, I think this is the life I want.
In the evening, Zhuang Yan Zhuang Yan came to pick me up from work for the first time, he bought a large bouquet of roses, and Bao Yuanyuan's eyes became bigger with envy.
Although I felt very embarrassed, it greatly satisfied the vanity in my heart that I was spoiled by him. My heart was filled with honey, so sweet that it was greasy.
Zhuang Yan invited Bao Yuanyuan to go back to the small home with us, and Bao Yuanyuan immediately nodded and agreed: "Is today a special day?"
Zhuang Yan's eyes were full of tenderness, and he rubbed my hair in front of Bao Yuanyuan: "I'll cook today, you are Xixi's good friend, I have to please you." If you eat people with a short mouth and soft hands, you will have to praise me more in front of Xixi in the future. ”
It was rare for him to be so improper, I was so dazed by the smell of roses that I grinned and asked him after getting in the car: "Why are you spending money on a good way?" You have sent me roses before. ”
The bouquet of roses had been dried and stored in a long glass bottle in the master bedroom.
Bao Yuanyuan, who was sitting in the back seat, patted me on the shoulder, and when I turned around, she immediately rolled her eyes at me exaggeratedly: "Xixi, you really don't understand the amorous feelings, do you still care about breaking the cost when you receive the flowers?"
Zhuang Yan chuckled and habitually touched my head: "Xixi, do you hear it? ”
I glared at Bao Yuanyuan resentfully, watching them sing and harmonize, and I began to suspect that I was indeed too stingy.
Zhuang Yan should have gotten off work early in the afternoon, and when I got home, I found that he had already bought the vegetables. When I was about to put on my apron and cook, he pushed me to the sofa and sat down: "Watch TV with your grandmother and friends, and I'll cook dinner today." ”
"You know how to cook?" I thought it was a little strange that I had never seen him cook, and I was worried that he would blow up the kitchen.
He shook his head helplessly, didn't reply to me, and went straight into the kitchen.
My grandmother looked at the big bouquet of roses in my arms and began to sigh, saying that the two of us didn't know how to live a good life and spend money cleanly.
I glanced at Bao Yuanyuan and secretly stuck out my tongue.
Zhuang Yan made Western food, pasta with steak, and the most intimate thing was that he was afraid that his grandmother would not be able to bite his teeth, so he specially cut the steak for her into small diced meat, which could be swallowed after two chews.
I saw that there was sweat on his forehead, and I couldn't help but go over to help him wipe it, and when I turned around and saw my grandmother looking at me, I was so frightened that I quickly took my hand back.
Before returning to my seat, I muttered to Zhuang Yan in confusion: "You are a little abnormal today. ”
He smiled and didn't answer, and waited until the food was ready before letting us eat first, saying that Jiang Yang would arrive later. I looked at Bao Yuanyuan, and then at the plate of food left for Jiang Yang, and my heart beat suddenly. How do I feel like he has something important to announce today? Could it be that I'm thinking too much?
Zhuang Yan's face was as calm as ever, the emotions in his eyebrows and eyes were faint, and he couldn't see any clues at all.
I ate a few bites absentmindedly and couldn't help but look back at the roses a few times, desperately searching in my mind for what special day it was.
When we had eaten normally, Jiang Yang rushed over. As soon as he entered the door, he raised his eyebrows twice at Zhuang Yan, and his eyes were extremely ambiguous. When he saw that Bao Yuanyuan was also present, he paused for half a second, and casually pulled the chair to Bao Yuanyuan's side, insisting on sitting next to her.
Bao Yuanyuan glanced at him with a smile and didn't say anything.
I don't know what's going on with these two people, I don't usually see them dating like ordinary couples, and there is very little phone contact, but every time they meet, the atmosphere between the two of them is a little weird.
The doubts in my heart have disappeared after eating, I think maybe I am thinking too much, and later I asked Zhuang Yan alone why he sent me flowers, maybe it was just to make me happy.
After the meal, Jiang Yang said that Zhuang Yan is usually very unromantic, and it is rare to see him buy such a large bouquet of flowers, so he has to take a photo of me, Bao Yuanyuan and my grandmother as a souvenir. There should have been ninety-nine of the bouquets, packaged in the shape of a heart, which was really fancy.
But I didn't expect that just when our attention was attracted by Jiang Yang, Zhuang Yan secretly ran into the room and changed into a very formal suit.
I chuckled and held my breath as he approached me step by step.
Yu Guang caught a glimpse of Bao Yuanyuan holding her grandmother's arm and standing next to her, and her grandmother asked her what was wrong, completely confused about what the situation was.
My nose was filled with the scent of roses, and suddenly I couldn't see anyone else in my eyes, only the tall man holding a small box and getting closer and closer.
I was thinking, what did he want to do? Did he call my best friend and his best friend over so that they could witness what was going to happen next? No wonder Jiang Yanghao took out a DV machine just now, was he filming me?
My mind was a mess, and when Zhuang Yan knelt down on one knee and opened the small box in front of me like a person in a TV series, I knew that he was really premeditated.
Didn't he say last night that he wouldn't talk about marriage for the time being? Why doesn't his words count?
My ears rang, and I could see that his mouth was open and closed as if he was talking, but when he was finished, I didn't realize what he had just said.
I don't know if I was stunned for too long, Jiang Yang coughed twice anxiously, and Bao Yuanyuan immediately ran over and shook my arm gently: "Xixi, are you stupid?
I swallowed dryly, and then I came to my senses.
I glanced back at Bao Yuanyuan blankly: "Promise what?" Then my heartbeat suddenly fluttered violently, I glared at Zhuang Yan in disbelief, and asked him excitedly, "What did you just say?"
Maybe my reaction was too disappointing, Zhuang Yan smiled bitterly, rearranged his face and raised the ring again: "Xixi, are you willing to marry me? When you graduate in a year, we will pick a suitable date to get married." ”
I didn't know which tendon I was wrong at the time, so I subconsciously replied, "Then let's talk about it next year." ”
There was a sudden dead silence at the scene, and after a few seconds, Jiang Yang couldn't help but curse: "Sister, are you kidding? Shouldn't normal women be happy? Don't you jump up and stretch out your hand to wear the ring, and then pounce on Zhuangzi and kiss Zhuangzi twice!"
My face was swollen and hot for a while.
Grandma is obviously also anxious, when I helped Zhuang Yan talk last night, she thought that I was deliberately excusing Zhuang Yan's irresponsible performance, and now she saw Zhuang Yan say that she wanted to marry me, she was happier than anyone else, so she walked behind me with a black face and pinched my arm hard: "Xixi, promise, what will you say next year?" He asked you to agree first, and then pick a day to get married tomorrow, I think this is very good. ”
I just feel that this kind of beautiful thing is too sudden, just like my grandmother forcing him to marry, I obviously feel very far away, how could it behave on me so quickly?
Zhuang Yan knelt for a long time, frowned slightly, and suddenly grabbed my hand.
He calmly took the ring and put it on my right ring finger, it was not too big or too small, and the ring reflected a dazzling light in the light, more beautiful than the stars in the sky.
I hadn't recovered from the shock when I was pulled out of the door by Zhuang Yan, and when he drove me away, I stared at the ring on my hand and looked at him: "Where are you going to take me?"
Zhuang Yan shook his head helplessly: "Xixi, are you willing to marry me, huh?"
"Yes, but haven't you graduated yet?" my ears were burning when I said this, and I always felt that everything just now was a dream. I couldn't help but pinch my thigh, it hurt a lot, it turned out that he really proposed to me.
"I'm not going back tonight, Yoko booked me a room in the hotel. ”
