Chapter 51: A Letter from Chen Wenhai
Liu Yulan was cooking when she suddenly heard a bicycle bell. She hurriedly said to her son:
"Jianping, go open the door, the postman must be here!"
Zhang Jianping was sitting on the sofa watching TV, and when he heard his mother say this, he stood up, opened the door, and came outside the house. At this time, the postman had already parked the car in front of Zhang Jianping's house.
The postman said to Zhang Jianping:
"Recently, your sister has been writing a lot, did these letters come from your sister's partner?"
"I don't know!"
"How could you not know? She's your sister, huh? ”
"My sister never told me this, and I didn't bother to ask!" After speaking, Zhang Jianping took the letter and entered the house. When he came into the house, he said to his mother:
"Just now, the postman said: My sister has been writing a lot of letters lately, and asked me if these letters were sent by my sister's object. Do you know about this? ”
"I don't know." Liu Yulan sighed, "Now, your sister seems to have changed, and she doesn't want to tell me anything, as long as I mention that Chen Wenhai, she will be angry!" I really don't know what is going on with her and Chen Wenhai! Now, there are a lot of rumors out there, and there are all kinds of things to say! I still haven't figured out what kind of person that Chen Wenhai is! Some people say he's a weirdo, that he was mysterious all day long during his college years, and no one knows what he's doing all day! He seems to have been a little stimulated by falling in love with someone, and since then, he has been in a slump, and he is too lazy to study, and he stays at home all day to make a sick number, and later, his family forced him to go to school, so he had to go back to school again, but after he returned to school, he didn't go to school well at all, and ran around all day long! ”
"I've heard about it too!" Zhang Jianping threw the letter on the sofa, "I've seen this Chen Wenhai a few times, he looks polite and polite, and he seems to be very knowledgeable!" However, what I don't understand is why he is chasing my sister so desperately! Isn't my sister just pretty? Is it worth his effort? I really doubt he's having something wrong with his brain! ”
Just as he was saying this, Zhang Xuemei came back, Zhang Jianping pointed to the letter on the sofa and said to his sister:
"That Chen Wenhai has written to you again!"
"Really?" Zhang Xuemei sat on the sofa, "He has nothing to do when he is idle!" ”
Zhang Jianping took the letter and asked his sister: "Can I read these letters?" As she spoke, she was about to open the letter, and Zhang Xuemei hurriedly snatched the letter.
She said to her brother:
"Don't look at it, it's a secret between me and Chen Wenhai!"
"Didn't you say that the two of you are just a normal colleague relationship?"
"Aren't there any secrets allowed between colleagues?"
"What's the secret? Can you tell me? ”
"Can't!"
"I'm your brother!"
"I'm too lazy to tell you, and you won't understand if I tell you!"
"You're underestimating your brother, aren't you? I'm 20 years old now, and I know a little bit about the kind of things that happen between men and women! Sister, how far has your relationship with Chen Wenhai developed? Now, there are a lot of rumors about the two of you out there, and they have noses and eyes, so people have to believe them! ”
"Didn't I make it clear to you a long time ago? There was nothing between me and him! ”
"Won't it?"
"Why don't you even believe your sister's words?"
"Are you embarrassed to say? Actually, this is nothing, isn't it like this when young people fall in love now? ”
"The problem is, I didn't fall in love with him Chen Wenhai!"
"How do you explain what happened that night? Also, why is he crying in the office? ”
"What does this have to do with me?"
"How does it not matter? He cries and wants to see you, can he say that it has nothing to do with you? ”
"I can't tell you!" Zhang Xuemei lowered her head, tears falling straight down.
"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Seeing Zhang Xuemei so uncomfortable, Zhang Jianping was surprised. He said to his sister: "It must be Chen Wenhai who bullied you!" Tell me how he bullied you! ”
"He won't bully me! He can't even love me! ”
"Then why don't you want to marry him?"
"I didn't say I didn't want to!" Zhang Xuemei smiled bitterly, "How can you understand my sister's distress!" ”
"What the hell are you struggling with? Can you tell me about it? ”
"Can't!"
"Why?"
"Because you're young!"
"I'm still young? I'm 20 years old this year! You always treat me like a child, like I'll never grow up! ”
"There are things that I haven't even figured out myself, how can I tell you?"
At this time, Chen Shuhong and Xie Jihong came.
Zhang Xuemei sighed, and then said to Chen Shuhong:
"As Xie Jihong said, today's society is too complicated, and there are often things that you can't think of, and you can't have a clue at all! I'm so worried that something unexpected will happen in the future! I have a hunch that there will be a lot of embarrassing things going on between me and Chen Wenhai! However, I've already gotten out of the way, and it's a big deal to die! What is the point of dying? I, Zhang Xuemei, have already died once, and it's a big deal to die again! In fact, in a sense, it is better to die than to live, at least you can truly be freed from pain! ”
"You're so pessimistic! How can a person's life be smooth sailing? We should be confident in the future! ”
"Xie Jihong is right, we have no reason to be pessimistic, because society is constantly improving!" Chen Shuhong took a sip of tea, and then continued, "Back then, after the incident between you and Luo Guoqiang, we all sympathized with you! Now, we all know: the relationship between you and Luo Guoqiang is too deep, so it is difficult for Chen Wenhai to enter your heart again! In fact, Chen Wenhai is quite pitiful, he has suffered a lot of setbacks and tribulations, and it is not easy to get to where he is today! ”
"Yes, he is not easy, so I often let him, but he shouldn't have been so endless! What does this make people think of me? Sometimes, I wish I shredded the letters he sent me, so as not to make people suspicious all day long! ”
"We can all understand your suffering! I suggest: After the start of school, you should talk to him well, let him pay attention to what he does, and don't rely on his own temperament! ”
"If only he could listen to me! He is sometimes too stubborn to listen to anyone! ”
"Don't rush, take your time!" Xie Jihong also took a sip of tea, and then continued, "We are all very young, and there are not many ways to encounter something, and some things often make us at a loss!" In the future, as we grow older, our social experience will become richer and richer, and even if we encounter tricky things, we will be able to cope with them easily! Speaking of this, Xie Jihong picked up the letter on the sofa, "Chen Wenhai's letter, can I read it?" ”
"Yes, you can watch it as you like!" Zhang Xuemei said, "Since the summer vacation, he has sent me a lot of letters!" I admit it: Chen Wenhai has a great literary talent, and the letters he wrote to me are like beautiful prose! Regrettably, there are many parts of his letter that I simply cannot read! Maybe it's because my level of appreciation for literature is too low! Do you want me to bring you all the letters he wrote to me? ”
"Of course! Go get it, let me see this great writer! ”
Zhang Xuemei stood up, came to the cabinet and opened the drawer, took out a large stack of letters from it, and then, holding these letters back to Xie Jihong, threw them into her arms with an ancient thought, "Look at it! ”
"Wow, that's so much!" Xie Jihong shouted in surprise. "When a boy writes me so many love letters, I'm going to faint with joy!"
"As for it?" Chen Shuhong couldn't help laughing, "Isn't it just a bunch of word games?" Who wouldn't? ”
"You're right, try it!" Xie Jihong glared at Chen Shuhong, "If you Chen Shuhong can also write such a touching and high-level love letter, I, Xie Jihong, will admire you!" ”
"What's so hard about that? Miss Ben writes now! Then, Chen Shuhong shouted at Zhang Xuemei, "Quickly bring a pen and paper, Miss Ben is going to write a love letter now!" ”
"You really wrote? Who are you writing to? You don't seem to have a partner yet, do you? ”
"I'll write to Chen Wenhai! Don't laugh! Isn't that okay? ”
"I didn't say no! Perhaps, after he receives your love letter, he will marry you as soon as he is happy! ”
"Will he marry me? Will you give him up to me? ”
"What's there to be reluctant about? If he marries you, I'll find another one better than him!" ”
"Don't make a noise, okay?" Xie Jihong said, "I'm now admiring this great writer's masterpiece!" After a while, she asked everyone again, "Do you want to know how this great writer wrote love letters?" ”
"Yes! Read it to us! ”
So, Xie Jihong read aloud with emotion.
As soon as I finished reading, everyone applauded warmly, and Chen Shuhong slapped her palms red!
"It's so touching! It's so level! I, Chen Shuhong, decided to marry him! ”
Zhang Xuemei slapped Chen Shuhong's fist, "Dead girl, don't be ashamed!" ”
