74 Lovers eventually become married
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Lai quickly and smoothly worked as an assistant. With such a powerful teacher, Xiaolai is happy every day.
Since she met the writer teacher, her dream can finally be realized. Xiao Lai's whole person also became cheerful.
When he didn't have the inspiration to write, he would get on the bus by himself, walk around, and look around. Sometimes, she would invite a few friends to go to the flower market with them to see the birds, smell the flowers, and let herself feel the spirit of the outside world.
Leaving the officialdom and abandoning the publishing house that was as silent as stagnant water, Xiao Lai came to the countryside, just because he followed his inner thoughts and became a free man.
Saturdays and Sundays are the busiest time for her, writing manuscripts alone, no time to socialize, no time to clean up, only a pen, a book, and a computer to accompany her.
Opening the document, she kept tapping on the keyboard, and couldn't stop for a while, because she was busy earning money, because her best friend was getting married, and she needed to save money for gifts.
Suili, probably dating back to the farming period. In order to maintain the relationship with each other, people often have various exchanges, and they will send some valuables to each other to show friendship. Suili is also known as "Suizi", and in modern times, Suili is gradually expressed in money. Of course, the customs vary from region to region, and the amount of the gift varies from region to region. Moreover, with the progress of the economy and society, the gift money is also getting bigger and bigger.
Xiao Lai doesn't like to make a noise, and she doesn't know how much money to follow, after all, Xiao Min is her always good friend, and she never thought that one day, the two of them will no longer be in touch. It's just that he is there according to his and her affection, and he will not say too little to say, and Xiao Lai has no intention of recycling it.
These days, Xiao Lai is only willing to stay at home, sitting for a day, and only when she finishes the manuscript of the day, she belongs to herself.
It's almost the day of payroll, Xiaolai is also looking at the day, it is about to be the day when her friend gets married, and if she doesn't pay her salary, she will have to borrow money to live.
What to do? She temporarily told the person in charge of the part-time job about it, but she didn't expect the person over there to reply to her, "It has already been sent, and it may take a long time to arrive." ”
In those years, unlike the current management, the bank has not fully implemented the credit system, everyone can handle multiple bank cards, and there is no need to deal with it, there is no limit, a person can have multiple bank cards in different banks at the same time, and there is no need to cancel it.
Xiao Lai quickly took the card out the door, because the nearby bank was not far away, and she trotted all the way over. When he arrived at the bank counter, Xiao Lai's ID card opened a bank card and deposited a gift money into it. This is the hard-earned money she earns word by word, and she hopes to give this money as a gift to her friends who have always been good, hoping that she can be happy and happy.
Xiao Lai is such a child who thinks about others, but in the real world, her friends are far away from her one by one. Sometimes, she takes her friends too seriously and does the opposite.
The night before the wedding, Xiao Min called and told Xiao Lai, "I need to arrive early", but Xiao Lai didn't think about it so much, because she only took half a day off and had to write a manuscript at night, so there was no way to go.
Actually, Xiao Min should be understandable, but what is surprising is that this meeting, the friendship between the two will become a swan song, God knows, what color Xiao Min's girl's heart is.
Early the next morning, Xiao Lai rushed to Xiao Min's house by car.
Along the way, Xiao Min was a little anxious, and kept urging Xiao Lai, "Where are you?" Xiao Lai is a slow person by nature, and she always says unhurriedly, "Right away, I just took a taxi." ”
Rushing there, Xiao Min was already dressed and sitting in a room full of festivity, waiting for the groom to come and pick up the kiss. There are people standing around, Xiao Min likes to make friends, from elementary school, junior high school, to high school, college, and the friends who can come are almost there.
Xiao Lai stood on the side with only blessings in his heart. Suddenly, someone outside was setting off firecrackers, which meant that the wedding team was about to arrive, and the bride was about to start being "robbed".
Friends all took out the gift money and stuffed it into the bride's hands. Xiao Lai was the last, she took out a red envelope, handed it to Xiao Min, and told her that there was a bank card in it, and the password was her birthday.
Xiao Min was very moved, and she suddenly tightened her hand holding Xiao Lai's hand. Perhaps, at this moment, Xiao Lai did a very decent thing, gave the bride enough face, and won the praise of everyone. It seems that only those rich people will use this way, but no one will know, Xiao Lai will also use it, and he is very good at it.
At this moment, Xiao Min seemed to suddenly realize that the most inconspicuous girl beside her was the most hidden talent, I'm afraid, this is the last time Xiao Lai will see her.
Finally, the groom shook off everyone's barriers, came to the bride's side, picked up Xiaomin and was about to leave, but was pulled by everyone.
"The bridegroom, you need to answer three questions." Friends deliberately make things difficult.
"First question, do you know what Xiaomin's birthday is?"
"September 20th!"
"Do you know what Min's favorite is?"
"It's me!"
"That's not right!"
"Oh, it's not me, it's just a little hot pot!"
"Last question, do you really love Xiaomin?"
This question was asked suddenly, the groom thought for a while, did not answer immediately, but took out a ring from the side, knelt on one knee, and asked Xiao Min, "Are you willing to marry me?" ”
Unexpectedly, Xiao Min cried again, "I do!" ”
"I love you!" The groom gently put the ring on Xiao Min's hand and completed the ceremony. Unexpectedly, everyone began to coax, "Kiss one, oops, kiss one!" ”
The groom was shy, but he couldn't help everyone shouting over and over again, so he had to kiss Xiao Min wildly.
This is the classic "marry first, love later" type of marriage, especially among older single men and women, the most popular way. Before getting married, both parents agreed on the auspicious day of the zodiac, the man's family would marry on which day, and the woman's family would prepare everything on that day, and the two young people completed the marriage ceremony in this way.
This is just according to the parents' intentions, two married people even omitted the marriage proposal process, this kind of marriage that only focuses on content and does not emphasize rituals, there are various contradictions after a long time.
Fortunately, Xiao Min met that reliable man, and he was willing to give her a decent marriage. Such a person is more worry-free, more mature in thinking, and willing to accommodate the woman, and the quality of life of the two people will not be much worse.
The reason why Xiao Min is in such a hurry to marry herself may also have something to do with her character. It's not a high-minded personality, and Xiaomin is also very down-to-earth, which may be related to his age. She is very aware of her strengths and weaknesses, so when she meets a good marriage partner, she quickly settles down.
Xiao Lai followed the team to send the bride to her mother-in-law's house.
In Xiao Lai's hometown, every married family will set up a wedding banquet in their own home and invite relatives and friends to sit at the table. In this way, although it is troublesome, it can save a lot of money compared to booking a restaurant.
Coincidentally, Xiao Lai actually met a classmate from high school, Xiao Cui, at the wedding banquet. It turns out that she has now become Xiaomin's colleague. This time he came to see off his relatives, but to Xiao Lai's surprise, Xiao Cui didn't recognize Xiao Lai like a stranger.
This may have nothing to do with Xiaomin. After all, Xiao Lai's every move, Xiao Min knows best. Xiaocui deliberately ignored Xiao Lai, which may have something to do with Xiao Min. Xiao Lai realized this, smiled to himself, and ignored her, who called himself a bad mix at that time!
Usually, Xiao Min nagged Xiao Cui with Xiao Lai, and on this occasion, Xiao Lai really saw through Xiao Min. She didn't show it, and she didn't pull out immediately, she just ate, said goodbye to Xiao Min, and went back in the car with everyone.
Xiao Cui likes to show off, driving a car alone, running in front of Xiao Lai's car, it feels like showing off something, but Xiao Lai doesn't take it seriously at all, in comparison, their friendship is still shallow.
When she returned to the unit, she had already exceeded the time of leave, and her colleagues told Xiaolai to hurry up and prepare a new manuscript, but the editor-in-chief went out for an interview and did not take her. Hey, I missed another opportunity to learn. It doesn't matter, Xiao Lai still wrote the most basic press release.
This new issue of the magazine is also going to enter the final review. Taking advantage of the time to get off work, Xiao Lai quickly browsed it, prepared the materials, and decided to take it home to read.
The sound of firecrackers rings in the ears, and the Chinese New Year's Eve night song and dance screen.
It's almost the Spring Festival again, there are no new drafts in the society, and the editor-in-chief is busy taking personal work, so he gave Xiaolai and them a holiday early.
Xiao Lai was also idle and had nothing to do, but he didn't want to go back to that home, so he had to stay in the dormitory and write quietly. The girls all went home for the New Year. Xiao Lai also really wants to go back and spend a good year, but when she thinks of that person at home, she can have a hunch
What would it be like to go back on your own.
Simply, no longer thinking about these sad things, Xiao Lai locked himself in his room and kept updating the manuscript. Sometimes, when he is tired of writing, Xiao Lai will take the time to read the teacher's articles and look for ideas.
"Only by constantly overthrowing one's original way of thinking can one reinvent new and high-level ideas." This is also the conclusion that Xiao Lai has come to after practicing countless experiments.
There are no shortcuts to writing, either. Only by constantly practicing, summarizing, and discussing, can a person truly find a writing technique that suits him.
When Xiao Lai realized this truth, he was already in Chinese New Year's Eve. Her parents urged her to go home for the New Year, but she couldn't escape, so she could only pack up and take the car to her home.
