Chapter 14: Watching Movies
In the evening in Yilan Xiaozhu, Mrs. Zhou read the scriptures in front of the shrine for a while, but those scriptures that persuaded people to let go of their obsessions were empty, and the scriptures that let go of her obsession did not seem to make her feel relaxed at all, and her heart was still thinking about the note she took from Cuiliu's hand in the afternoon.
Putting down the rosary, Mrs. Zhou glanced at Master Zhou beside her and said, "Master, I think we have to hurry up and book a family affair for Ruikang." ”
Master Zhou said "En" and said, "Haven't you been doing this all the time?" Ryan just got married, why are you suddenly so anxious? ”
Mrs. Zhou moved her lips and wanted to tell Master Zhou about the note, but after thinking about it, maybe she was too careful, this matter was related to the reputation of the Zhou family and her two sons, and she couldn't conclude that there was anything innocent between Ruikang and Ruojun just based on a note. After thinking about it, he still didn't say it, sighed lightly and said: "Ruikang is anxious, like a fire, I am always afraid that he will get into trouble, he speaks and marches in school all day long, which really worries me." ”
Master Zhou frowned lightly, nodded, and Mrs. Zhou said again: "He is not young anymore, so book a family affair for him as soon as possible, so as to accept his temperament." ”
Master Zhou nodded and said, "This is a good idea, which one do you want to decide?" ”
Mrs. Zhou smiled and said: "It's Ruikang's good classmates, Cheng family brothers and sisters, I, I have already secretly asked Mrs. Zhang to understand the Cheng family, hey, the Cheng family runs a tea shop." ”
"Oh?" Master Zhou picked up the teacup in his hand and said with a smile: "This is to my taste." No wonder they brought good tea the first two times, I just thought it was Ruikang who told them that I love tea, so there is such a reason. ”
Mrs. Zhou said with a smile: "Yes, the ancestors of the Cheng family also have a reputation, and later gave up the official to engage in business, today I quietly looked at the girl of the Cheng family several times, although the appearance is not as charming as Ruojun, but in the end there is a family background, dignified and steady, generous and decent, and she and Ruikang are classmates, and the two also talked about it." It really couldn't be more suitable. ”
The more Master Zhou listened, the more happy he became, and said with a smile: "As soon as you say this, I really want to get married quickly, maybe there will be a lot of good tea in her dowry!" Hehe. ”
"Master--" Mrs. Zhou said with a smile: "Why do you always worry about other people's tea, it makes people laugh." Since you also agree, then we will do so, I will find Mrs. Zhang tomorrow and officially come to the door to propose. ”
Master Zhou couldn't stop nodding his head, he always believed in Mrs. Zhou's ability to manage family affairs, and also believed in Mrs. Zhou's vision, so he was very relieved.
Mrs. Zhou took a sip of tea and said: "There is one more thing, which is also the reason why I want Ruikang to get married as soon as possible, although Ryan and Ruojun are married, but there is no round house so far, Ryan is sick, moody, the appearance of that night really scared me to death, so I didn't dare to mention the round house, but you see, you and I are nearly half a hundred years old, and my grandson has not been embraced, and my cousin has already hugged the third grandson, I am really envious." ”
Speaking of this week, the old man couldn't help but sigh heavily, and said: "Yes, the two generations of our Zhou family are thin, it's really not a good thing, it is indeed necessary to let Ruikang get married earlier, and it is the right thing to open up branches and leaves for the Zhou family, you should hurry up and get this done." ”
Mrs. Zhou said: "Well, after becoming a parent, and having a child, Ruikang will be a little worried, and he will no longer look forward to doing things." ”
The two elders of the Zhou family discussed it properly, and they both felt a lot of relief in their hearts, but they didn't know how many stories their hard work would cause.
//
On the second night, Ruikang at the dinner table was very uneasy, his eyebrows were frowning all the time, and he was just eating and looking at his watch.
Seeing her son's absent-minded appearance, Mrs. Zhou couldn't help asking, "Ruikang, what's wrong with you?" Why are you always looking at your watch and you are going out? ”
Ruikang let out a muffled "um" and said, "Dad, mother, I made an appointment with someone to watch a movie, and I want to come back later." ”
The two elders of the Zhou family glanced at each other, they were quite surprised, and Mrs. Zhou asked, "Who are you going with?" ”
Ruikang subconsciously glanced at Ruojun on the side and said, "Ruoli." ”
"Wakari?!" The two elders of the Zhou family couldn't help but shout in unison, they never thought that Ruikang would go to the movies alone with Ruoli.
Ruojun was also stunned, the chopsticks in her hand stopped in mid-air, she didn't expect Ruikang and Ruoli to develop so quickly.
The second elder of the Zhou family frowned, and Mrs. Zhou asked tentatively, "Ruikang, are you ...... Love Wakari? ”
Ruikang glanced at Ruojun with slanted eyes, he didn't know what to say, he was just silent, and the second elder of the Zhou family was also hindered by Ruojun's presence and couldn't express his opinion, and Ruojun looked at everyone's expressions, just feeling puzzled.
Ruikang sighed and said, "I'll be back soon." After saying that, he put down his rice bowl and walked out of the house quickly.
Leaving the second elder of the Zhou family and Ruojun looking at each other, Mrs. Zhou looked at the back of her son's departure blankly, shook her head and said, "What's going on?" How so? ”
Master Zhou shook his head and said, "The young people nowadays are really ...... Cough...... Is this what they call free love? The third watch went out to watch a movie in the middle of the night...... Ahem......."
Mei Ruojun sat aside and didn't know what to say, she thought that Ruoli would be very happy tonight, but Ruikang didn't have a trace of happiness and excitement just now, his face was just full of trouble, she didn't know what kind of situation he and Ruoli had on tonight's date, she could only silently pray that Ruoli could get what she wanted.
//
Ruoli dressed up carefully, looking even more innocent and lovely, and seeing Ruikang coming from afar, her heart was beating fast as if she was about to die. Zhou Ruikang saw her from a distance and waved hello to her, she was outstanding, young and beautiful, but he didn't feel excited.
Walking up to her, just as she wanted to speak, Wakari suddenly kissed him on the face at a very fast speed. Ruikang was really startled, looked around, and said, "No, Ruoli, don't do this." ”
Ruoli's face was flushed, Ruikang didn't know what to say to not hurt her, she was so young, so lively, and the most important thing was that she was Mei Ruojun's sister, if she hurt Ruoli, she would indirectly hurt Ruojun, he had to consider the words and make her understand her mind most completely.
Wakari looked at the clock in the movie theater and said, "It's time for the show to start, let's go in." Ruikang sighed and nodded. The two were about to walk into the door of the movie theater, when suddenly Ruikang was patted on the shoulder, Ruikang turned around, it turned out to be Cheng Jiawei, and not far behind him stood Cheng Jiaqi, and two classmates who were not very familiar.
"Hey, Zhou Ruikang, it's really you, haha, I made a bet with Jiaqi just now, I said it must be you, Jiaqi still doesn't believe it......" Cheng Jiawei said happily.
Ruikang only felt extremely embarrassed, glanced at Cheng Jiaqi, and saw that she stood in the distance and did not come up to greet her, but just smiled slightly, nodded, and continued to talk with her two classmates.
Cheng Jiawei looked at Ruoli and said with a smile: "Wow, Ruoli, tonight is really beautiful." Hey, you two are ......." Wakari lowered her head shyly and said nothing.
Ruikang felt speechless, so he had to say: "Jiawei, don't get me wrong.......
Cheng Jiawei smiled: "Well, okay, okay, I don't misunderstand, don't misunderstand, you two must have come to the cinema to talk about your homework." Okay, we won't bother you. Let's go in and talk about your homework. ”
Saying that, he turned around and pulled Jiaqi and his two friends into the movie theater, Cheng Jiaqi took two steps and looked back at Ruikang, and finally followed his brother into the movie theater with a frown.
Zhou Ruikang didn't have the heart to watch the movie at all, just thinking about how to make it clear to Ruoli after the movie ended, he was very confused, on the one hand, he knew that he had to make it clear with Ruoli, and on the other hand, he was worried that he would hurt her and make her sad. He didn't want to hurt her, she was still so young, so cute, full of beautiful yearning for love, he was hesitating in his heart, only to feel a sinking on his shoulder, it turned out that Ruoli next to him gently leaned his head on his shoulder, Ruikang was even more conflicted in his heart, he didn't expect Ruoli to be so active and enthusiastic, he didn't accept it, and it wasn't to push it away.
finally survived until the end of the movie, Ruikang quickly stood up and walked out the door, but Ruoli took advantage of the situation to hold his arm and smiled: "This movie is not bad." The love of the hero and heroine is really romantic. ”
Zhou Ruikang had to nod perfunctorily, thinking that he had to quickly find a place to make it clear to her, who knew that he had just gone out of the door and knocked down Cheng Jiawei and Cheng Jiaqi, two brothers and sisters, Jiaqi saw Ruoli holding Ruikang's arm, her face sank slightly, she didn't expect Ruikang and Ruoli to develop so fast, it was already to the point of holding hands to watch a movie, seeing that her brother and Ruikang were still playing haha, she couldn't help but stepped forward and said: "Brother, get acquainted, don't disturb other people's good times, let's go home." ”
As soon as she said this, Cheng Jiawei nodded hurriedly and smiled: "Yes, yes, you see that I really don't know each other, okay, don't bother you, Ruikang, see you at school tomorrow." With that, the brother and sister turned and left.
Ruikang was very upset, too lazy to explain to them, if he went to explain, he was afraid that it would be more and more black, he had to hurry up and make it clear to Ruoli now, so he said: "Ruoli is already late, I'll send you back." Ruoli blushed and nodded shyly.
The two walked on the way back to Mei's house, Ruikang didn't know how to speak, but Ruoli felt that it was a very romantic thing to walk under the moonlight with his loved one at this moment, and he grabbed Ruikang's arm while walking, and leaned his head on his shoulder, Ruikang stopped, pulled her right and looked at himself and said: "Ruoli, you are still young, and you don't know how to ...... love"
Wakari looked at him with wide eyes and said, "I'm sixteen years old, and I know what it's like to like someone and love someone. ”
Zhou Ruikang shook his head and said: "Maybe I don't understand, Ruoli, you are very beautiful and cute, and you will meet a man who loves you very well in the future." ”
"But, but the one I love is you." Ruoli said with some grievances.
Ruikang was surprised by her straightforwardness, which made him a little powerless, and sighed, "Ruoli, I think I misunderstood you." I want to ......." Before he finished speaking, suddenly a gust of night wind blew, Wakari shivered and sneezed, she dressed up carefully tonight, in order to show her slim figure, she did not wear a heavy jacket, and although it was already spring at this time, the night was still unusually cold.
Ruikang saw that she was shivering with cold, her nose and cheeks were cold and red, and she couldn't bear it, so she hurriedly took off her coat and put it on her, and said, "Why do you wear so little?" ”
Ruoli felt the body temperature on Ruikang's coat, only to feel that the romance and happiness were indescribable, Ruikang saw her so excited, so happy looking at herself, she couldn't say anything about her refusal, sighed secretly, and said, "Forget it, I'll send you back first." ”
