Chapter Twenty-Nine: Different
"yes. When they were young, wasn't it? ”
Wu Chang didn't know why Liu Ting asked this, but she felt that her parents had hardly changed over the years.
"I feel like it's pretty bad.
It seems that the height is different from the one in the photo.
In this picture, your mom is shorter than your dad, but the reality is that your mom is taller than your dad.
Well...... And here, your mother used to have a mole on the corner of her lip, which I didn't see just now.
The face shape is also different, in the photo your mother has a round face, but in reality your mother has a long face.
The eyes are not double eyelids either, but elongated single eyelids.
And your dad......"
"What are you talking about?"
Liu Ting was inexplicable when she heard this, and couldn't help but interrupt Wu Chang.
"I'm talking about how your parents have changed in this photo compared to what they are now."
"As you say, they just have a few more wrinkles on their faces. My mom has always had a single eyelid, and my dad has always been taller than my mom, a few centimeters taller, how can it be my mom tall. ”
Liu Ting couldn't help but correct it, and after Wu Chang heard it, he recalled it in his mind, then shook his head and said:
"Maybe I'm wrong, anyway, I think your parents have changed a lot."
"I don't know, maybe I've been watching it for a long time, so I can't feel it?"
Liu Ting was also a little uncertain about what Wu Chang said, but she didn't talk about her parents anymore, but asked about the gossip:
"By the way, Changchang, didn't you ask your family about finding a partner?"
"How could it not be asked. As long as they see me, they want to grind me twenty-four hours a day, twenty-four hours a day.
It's so annoying, I'm going to die.
What about you? Did your parents rush me? ”
"Urge. At our age, no matter how many parents don't urge, they are all the same, desperately urging.
Many times I have the illusion that as long as it is a man, my parents can do whatever it takes.
You say that we women are really worthless. Why do you have to marry someone and rely on a man? ”
"I don't know. Anyway, I'm very annoyed that my parents urge me to do this, and they have arranged many blind dates for me, and I haven't seen any of them here and there.
Because of this, my dad also lost his temper with me, scolded me, and said that if I can't find a partner this year, he will cut off the father-daughter relationship with me.
That's a good point.
I've thought about it, and if I can't do it, I'll just find someone to marry, lest they talk about me again. ”
"Then you don't have a favorite in the company?"
"I don't think about these things at all when I go to work. How do you have it? ”
"There is indeed one. But I tell you, don't tell anyone. ”
Liu Ting blushed a little embarrassed, Wu Chang smiled and showed great interest, wanting to hear what Liu Ting had to say.
Just as he was about to say that, the bedroom door "banged".
"What's wrong?"
Liu Ting didn't get out of bed, but asked the door.
"What time is it, go to bed if there's nothing to do?"
Outside, a woman's voice came in.
"Got it."
Liu Ting responded, then made a silent gesture to Wu Chang and whispered:
"I guess we just chatted with them, and the two of them can't sleep at all. Come to bed, and we'll talk about it. ”
"Was that your mom just now?"
Wu Chang nodded symbolically, and then glanced at the locked door again.
"It's my mom. Come on, it's cold down there, my house isn't warm at all, and it's leaking everywhere. ”
"Okay."
Wu Chang didn't ask again, and at this time he also got his pajamas and went to bed.
The two of them were covered with a quilt, and Liu Ting dragged the quilt up to cover her mouth a little, and then continued:
"I'm sure you know who I like."
"I know that too? Do I know each other? Our department? Wu Chang looked a little surprised.
"How could it be our department. How old are the people in our department, not our department. It is Wang Wenjie of the warehousing department. ”
"Wang Wenjie? Is it the tall, fair-looking one? Talking a little fast, is that him? ”
"Yes, that's him. I think he's very nice, and every time I see him, my heart beats fast. Liu Ting was almost shy and speechless.
"Are you two okay?"
"Nope. We only talked a few times, and he came to us for a reimbursement. However, I inquired about him from Sister Wang in the warehousing department, and Sister Wang said that he had not yet talked to someone. ”
"And you want to be nice to him?"
"I thought about it, but I didn't think I was worthy of him. And then there's my dad, who has been persuading me to let me be nice to a child of one of his comrades-in-arms.
The man was ugly, not very tall, and I didn't like it at all. ”
"If you want me to say that since you like him, hurry up and ask someone who can help you match him, this kind of thing is not too late. When the two of you talk about it, I don't think your dad will push you anymore.
This is not a feudal era again, and the state does not allow arranged marriages. ”
"But he's so good, what if he can't see me, then I might as well die."
"Don't talk nonsense. There are a few people in our company who can look better than you, I think that if that king or something finds you, it is his eight lifetimes of cultivation and persuasion, how can he not look down on you.
Besides, how do you know if you don't try. ”
Wu Chang's words can be regarded as speaking to Liu Ting's heart, and she even has the urge to put on her clothes and go to Sister Wang to tie up now.
He and Sister Wang's niece are best friends, if she looks for Sister Wang about this, Sister Wang will help her 100%, when she asked Sister Wang about Wang Wenjie before, Sister Wang asked her, but she didn't agree.
"Hearing you say this, I suddenly have confidence in myself, so I'll ask Sister Wang when I go to work tomorrow."
"Okay."
"What about you? I have a few guys in the company who I know, would I like to introduce them to you? ”
"I'll forget it......"
The two of them had been under the covers, whispering about emotional issues. In this era, there is almost no direct contact between men and women, unless it is the kind of neighbor who grows up, otherwise adult men and women want to get in touch, they will habitually find someone to match.
Otherwise, if you act too actively, you will be pointed at by people and say something very ugly behind your back.
I didn't know what time it was, until Wu Chang couldn't stand falling asleep, Liu Ting's mouth was closed, and she fell asleep after a while.
The old clocks hung on the wall, the pendulum was constantly dangling from side to side, this kind of clock was mechanical, and it had to be "energized" every once in a while, and then it would walk for a few days, and at the hour and half, the bell would sound.
A few bells rang at a few o'clock, and only one at half an o'clock.
"Click...... Click"
"Click...... Click"
The room was filled with the sound of a pendulum, and in a short time two more bells rang.
The second girl, who was asleep, was not woken up by the ringing of the bell, and the hour hand was turning slowly and unconsciously. Until three more chirping bells rang a little.
At the same time, the picture frame, which was originally placed on the table, made a "pop" sound and buckled on the table.
