Chapter II
Sitting in the splendid dining room in late autumn, Mu Ran looked at the happy newlyweds on the stage, the bride was well-behaved and lovely, and her fair skin looked even more transparent under the soft yellow light, and the dark and tall groom holding around her happened to have a strong contrast, as if the realistic version of Beauty and the Beast, it looked a little strange, she was bored to make comments in her heart, still did not forget to maintain a dignified sitting posture and a decent smile, and the most important thing is that there must be a trace of emotion in her eyes for the beginning of the happy life of the newlyweds, so as to appear vivid and soft, so as to avoid making others think that a marionette is sitting here。
Ms. Luo looked at the late autumn, very satisfied with her daughter's performance today, the late autumn is the most proud of a work of art in her life, since she was born, she has carefully cared for her, never dared to have a trace of slackness, she understands too well how cruel this society is to women, so she planned everything for the late autumn early, I only hope that she can bypass those obstacles on the road of life, can go all the way smoothly, fortunately the late autumn did not disappoint her, since she was a child, she has been well-behaved and obedient, and there has been no youthful rebellious period to make her troubled, this year after returning from the United Kingdom in addition to adding a little more elegance, the rest has not changed much, still the daughter who makes her proud.
The host on the stage began to tell the scenes of the newcomer's acquaintance with emotion, as if he had been there, and the late autumn felt that he himself was moved to tears by his own narration, but the newcomers were a little indifferent, and they behaved very steadily, as if the host was not telling his own story.
At this time, the voice of Aunt Zhang, who was at the same table, sounded in her ears, "Look at it, are they a natural pair, talented and beautiful?" That day, Ms. Hu came to ask me if there was a suitable person to introduce to her son, saying that their Liu Hui had a request, young and beautiful, I was the first to think of Xiaoyu, this child, obedient since he was a child, he didn't have to say anything, he went to school for four years in a place like the film academy, and he never talked about a relationship, when they were arranged, I saw Liu Hui's expression, and I knew that this thing was going to be done, look, it's only been a long time, and I got married. ”
As soon as the words were finished, they immediately attracted the attention of other aunts at the same table, and everyone sighed, it turned out that you introduced it, no wonder they were so on to Yunyun, and then they each began to inquire for their sons or daughters, and the dinner table was immediately lively, Aunt Zhang was deeply proud to see that her words had caused such a big reaction, and she cleared her throat and continued. Xiaoyu's child is also worry-free, after marriage, he promised to resign and prepare to have a child at home, which is like those young people now, all of them are very selfish, what to say to be free, to put it bluntly, it is not selfish, in fact, where do they understand the good intentions of our parents, and they don't know how to turn back until they hit the south wall" The words aroused the strong agreement of the aunts on the table, and they were all angry with their children.
Aunt Zhang said to Nunu on the stage again, "Did you see the three best men next to the groom?" are all Liu Hui's high school classmates, the tall one in the middle is the son of Director Luo, the one on the right is the son of the boss of Qiao Banan, the standard rich second generation, and the one on the left is the son of the boss of our city mobile company, who just came back from studying in the UK, and like Liu Hui, he studied as a doctor. After speaking, she glanced at Ms. Luo meaningfully, and Ms. Luo was immediately keenly aware of it, she picked up the glass and took a sip of water, and said with a smile, "Sister Zhang, let's play mahjong at the table after dinner later."
Aunt Zhang naturally smiled and said yes, the rest of the people were not to be outdone, and immediately fought for the remaining two places, looking at the farce of the wedding scene in late autumn, she suddenly felt a little unbearable, just thinking that the wedding would end quickly, so that she could stand out and breathe, fortunately the wedding was also coming to an end at this time, the wedding banquet began, she ate two bites meaningfully and gave up, and then told Ms. Luo to go for a walk outside the hotel, and then politely left the venue after getting consent.
Walking out of the banquet hall, Wanqiu stood in the corridor, took a deep breath of fresh air, and her mood slowly calmed down, she could imagine how Ms. Luo and Aunt Zhang would exchange their respective information later, she would be valued like a commodity for sale, and then select the right buyer according to her value, fortunately, in Ms. Luo's heart, she is worth a lot of money, presumably she will be very careful to choose and consider, and will not sell herself easily, so for now, she should be safe, because except for the son of Director Luo, she has not found that Ms. Luo has expressed interest in anyone。
"Zheng Wanqiu" was thinking about it, Wanqiu suddenly heard someone calling her name, she looked back, a tall girl was standing not far from her, "It's really you, what are you thinking, so distracted, I called you twice before I reacted" The girl saw that she didn't recognize the wrong person, so she walked over happily. Late autumn took a closer look, only to find that it was a high school classmate Doudou, she has hardly changed in recent years, she still has ultra-short hair, a sports and casual dress, the corners of her mouth are slightly raised, and she always gives people a feeling of smiling evilly.
"I didn't think about anything, I was just in a daze" Wanqiu smiled at her, "Why, you can't stand the spectacular blind date meeting inside?"
Doudou sneered, as if she had told a very funny joke in late autumn, "Those aunts inside avoided me when they saw me, for fear that I would fall in love with their sons, my mother's face turned blue, and she thought I was too embarrassed to lose her face, so let me get out"
Late Autumn didn't show any displeasure or embarrassment on her face when she saw her say this, as if it was a natural thing, and she didn't prepare any words of comfort, the two stood in the corridor and chatted happily for a while, recalling all kinds of past events in high school, until Late Autumn felt that the time was almost up, she was going to go back to accompany Ms. Luo to the teahouse to sit for a while, and then go home first, anyway, the main effect of Ms. Luo's need for her to come today has been achieved, and she should be allowed to leave first. So she said goodbye to Doudou, and Doudou didn't say much, and the two exchanged phone numbers and left.
On the way back to the banquet hall, she thought that this estranged and polite conversation with Doudou no longer had the intimate atmosphere of talking about everything, and the friendship in high school seemed to have disappeared, why was this so? Late Autumn thought about it carefully, trying to recall the things of four years ago, yes, it should be from the beginning when she accidentally saw the love for her in Doudou's diary, she deliberately distanced the two, Doudou seemed to notice something, and didn't say anything, let Late Autumn gradually alienate herself, and then Late Autumn went to England, and the two never contacted each other again, until today, they got back together, but when they met again, everyone was no longer the original self. Wanqiu sighed and returned to her seat in the banquet hall.
After lunch, she sat in the private room of the teahouse with Ms. Luo for a while, she said goodbye and left, Ms. Luo really didn't insist, the gathering of adults is indeed a bit boring for young people, so she did not force the late autumn to stay with her, in this regard, Ms. Luo felt that she was still quite open-minded, when she came home at night, it was almost 9 o'clock, there was only late autumn at home, her husband had not come back from the entertainment, Ms. Luo walked over and gently pushed open the door of the room that was hidden in late autumn, only to see that late autumn was video chatting, the screen was a foreign girl, blonde hair, smiling very brightly, the two spoke English, she couldn't understand, Seeing that the other party was a girl, she was relieved, and gently closed the door and left.
"Judy, it's a shame you didn't volunteer with us in Kenya, it was a great experience," the girl on the screen said to Late Autumn with a look of regret. At that time, they persuaded Wanqiu for a long time to let her go to participate in volunteer activities together, but due to the urgency of her family, Ms. Luo hoped that she could come back as soon as possible.
"There will be a chance" Late Autumn smiled at her, her plan has been put on the agenda, is preparing to carry out, and when the goal is achieved in the future, she can completely get rid of the shackles of her family and spread her wings, then she will definitely fly to the vast grassland as far as the eye can see, to breathe the free air there.
