Chapter 5 Marry Me at Twenty-Six

I closed the door of the small courtyard, Jiang Yan got on my motorcycle very tacitly, I hung a gear all the way, she leaned on me, her hands wrapped around my waist, the motorcycle slowly passed through Fengqiao, I enjoyed my time with Jiang Yan. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

After a fifteen-minute intoxication, we came to Uncle Chen's fried sauce noodle restaurant, Jiang Yan looked at the old locust tree next to him and said to me with some memories: "Luo Bing, do you remember this old locust tree?" ”

I took a puff of cigarette and turned to look at the old locust tree, which was one or two hundred years old, and I thought for a moment and said, "I remember, but this old locust tree still looks so tall and hasn't changed." ”

Jiang Yan looked at the old locust tree full of memories and said, "Do you remember? When I was in elementary school, there were a lot of bird's nests on the old locust tree, and suddenly one day a bird's nest fell, I cried so sadly, you took off your shoes at that time, held the bird's nest with one hand, and climbed the tree with the other hand and went up, I squatted on the ground and cried, and I didn't find that you climbed the tree, and when I looked up and saw you on the trunk of a two-story building, I was startled, and I cried more fiercely, you saw me crying so sadly, and immediately climbed down in two steps and one step, but I didn't expect you to fall and break your bones in the end...."

Jiang Yan was immersed in the memories of the past, looked at the old locust tree and said with a smile: "You were really stupid at that time." ”

I touched my nose to stop her from continuing, and then smiled: "Actually, I have to thank you, if it weren't for you, my good martial arts would be useless." ”

Jiang Yan chuckled and took my hand and walked into the noodle shop.

As soon as I entered the store, I saw Uncle Chen holding a rolling pin and making a phone call, "Okay, okay, tomorrow my old Chen will definitely be out of business for a day, and I promise to be your husband for a day, hehe...."

Looking at Uncle Chen's lewd smile, Jiang Yan and I looked at each other and covered our mouths and snickered, and the two exchanged glances, "It must be a call from Sister Li!" ’

This Sister Li and Uncle Chen are a pair of living treasures, and whoever has a child in our area has to marry a daughter-in-law and a daughter-in-law.

Uncle Chen put down the phone and rubbed his hands, and saw me and Jiang Yan looking at him with a smile, "Yo, Luo boy, Yan girl." Then he pretended to ignore him and said: "You two still know that you Uncle Chen, I thought you were all rich, and you didn't bother to pay attention to me, a lonely person, alas...."

"Yo yo yo, Uncle Chen, look at what you said, haven't I been busy for half a month, how can it be so serious as you said." I hurriedly walked over and patted Uncle Chen on the shoulder and said.

Jiang Yan couldn't hold back a smile and said: "That's it, Uncle Chen~ Everyone has been busy for a while, do you remember Luo Bing said that when he makes a fortune, he will open Uncle Chen's fried sauce noodle restaurant all over China, if he dares to forget you, you will beat him with a rolling pin!" ”

Uncle Chen looked at me with a shivering face, as if to say: This is almost the same!

I smiled and said, "Big bowl!" Add more green onions. ”

Jiang Yan also said: "Small bowl, don't have green onions, a bottle of Vitasoy!" ”

This amused Uncle Chen, and he chuckled and pointed at the two of us, "I said you two...."

We finished our lunch in a chat as usual.

Unconsciously, I walked to the side of the maple bridge again, the breeze blew in my face and blew Jiang Yan's black and shiny hair, I habitually wanted to reach out and stroke it, but I stiffened when my hand was raised in the air, and at this moment I realized that there seemed to be some indescribable estrangement between us.

We were silent all the way, and then sat down on the stone chair next to the bamboo forest, I took a deep breath and turned my head and asked softly, "Has the crisis of your cousin's company been resolved?" ”

Jiang Yan twisted his eyebrows as if he didn't want to mention this issue, and said, "Ou Zexiu has introduced three new shareholders, and the danger of Huayuan Company has been temporarily alleviated. ”

Seeing that she was reluctant to say, she didn't ask much at the moment, and then changed the topic and said: "There is still a week before Miss Jiang's birthday, do you want anything, brother, this is not bad money~"

Jiang Yan was stunned for a moment and said, "Is it my birthday next week?" ”

I looked at her expression and knew that she must have forgotten, so I half-jokingly patted her on the shoulder and said, "You see that the busy man has forgotten his birthday, only me, a farmer, remembers." ”

Jiang Yan smiled and leaned on my shoulder, and said after a while, "Luo Bing, do you remember what you said when you were a child?" ”

Feeling her weak body, I said, "I bragged too much when I was a child, and I don't remember what I said." ”

The next moment, Jiang Yan raised his head and looked at me seriously and said, "You said that you would marry me at the age of twenty-six, and then create our own castle together, don't you remember?" ”

I was a little confused by her look like this, and then habitually felt in my pocket to light a cigarette to hide my panicked emotions at the moment, but when I touched my pocket, I found that my cigarette was gone.

Facing Jiang Yan's questioning gaze, I was a little dazed, a little guilty, and a little lost.....

The more I grow up, the more I feel that I am getting farther and farther away from the familiar and unfamiliar woman in front of me, every time I face her, I always put away my humble emotions and face her with an attitude that I don't know, my love for Jiang Yan is no longer extricable..... But I persuaded myself again and again that she is a sacrosanct woman, and she may not belong to you....

I raised my head and looked at the gloomy sky, but I thought about the simple age boast of Haikou, and I asked myself over and over again, can it really be realized?

"Of course, how can I forget what Luo Bing said..."

"Can you do that?"

Me: "......."

The sunset is gradually overwhelmed by the city's high-rise buildings, and the sound of hawkers is heard in the alleys, usually this shouting is the preview of the night on Jinsha Road.

This afternoon, I chatted with Jiang Yan about many memories and futures, and I said goodbye to her by the bamboo forest in the evening, although the distance between me and her house was less than ten minutes, but I did not walk with her.

I went to the intersection to buy a pack of cigarettes, and in the smoke, I thought about the distance I had traveled in the past 25 years, and I once wanted to fight for her, but I entered a pyramid scheme. I went crazy with her, but in the end I succumbed to her father's majesty.

Could it be that Jiang Yan and I really can't get together?

I walked all the way back to my old-fashioned bungalow, and in order not to make this confused night too difficult, I bought two bottles of beer and drank them in a state of no emotion.

I had just picked up the key to open the door when I was startled by a 'boom, boom' sound.

Looking at the sound, I don't know if I don't look at it, I instantly feel like my head has been blown up by a bomb! A group of people wearing hard hats and construction site safety suits are actually tearing down my courtyard wall!

What is this TM doing? Demolition?
