Jiang Huaining and Lu Zhu wore white shirts of the same style, Lu Zhu put a light purple floral suspender belt inside, and wore the shirt as a shawl, and Jiang Huaining wore a pair of light gray slacks. The two of them are not dressed like the newlyweds who are holding a wedding today, but more like tourists who come to visit for vacation.

In the ultra-luxurious box, everyone formed different small circles, some were high school classmates of the two, and some were their college classmates and relatives' children.

On occasions when there are no elders, everyone is free to play and the atmosphere is very relaxed.

As soon as the two appeared, everyone present suspended their entertainment, and the sound of greetings came and went, full of joy.

Jiang Huaining smiled back, a little calmly and indifferently: "Just eat and drink whatever you want to be called a waiter, don't be polite."

"Jiang Xiaocao has a good amount of wine, I drank it at noon, and I recovered in the afternoon, do you want to drink some more?" The group of high school classmates who knew him well laughed.

Lu Zhu glanced at Jiang Huaining, it turned out that everyone thought he was drunk at noon, so she said that this person's acting skills were too good.

Jiang Huaining waved his hand and made a look of respect: "If you don't drink it, if you drink it again, you will have to fall on the spot."

Someone threw out the cards in his hand and inserted a sentence: "Understand and understand, tonight is the night of candles in people's cave rooms, can you drink unconscious?" I thought everyone was like you."

The man who spoke earlier suddenly realized, "I almost forgot about it, it's true that I'm ignorant. We'll have a chance to drink it again."

Lu Zhu was patted on the back, and when she turned around, it was Tao Nianci, who pointed to a corner and said, "Let's go over there to play?"

Lu Zhu's college roommate sat in the corner booth, He Shiyan was going back tomorrow morning, and it was inconvenient to take the child outside, so he wanted to take the opportunity to talk tonight.

Lu Zhu said hello to Jiang Huaining, and went to his roommate's with Tao Nianci.

After she sat down, He Shiyan handed her a cup of pomegranate juice to drink. Lu Zhu took it and took a sip: "What about the children?"

"The child can't stay up late, Liang Chuan sleeps in the upstairs room, and I come out to play." He Shiyan laughed, "But I'll have to go up later, the child can't wake up and see me crying, he can't coax me."

"When I was in college, I saw that Liang Chuan was pinched by you, and it's still like this." Lu Zhu said.

He Shiyan's temperament has become much gentler than when she was in college, and her voice is clearer: "You don't envy me anymore, you and Jiang Huaining are working steadily step by step, and their marriage and career are both fruitful. I've just heard those men and women talk about you, and it's all in a tone of envy."

Zhang Yueran nodded violently and agreed with her words: "Jiang Xiaocao's appearance hasn't changed much, and his temperament has changed a lot compared to before, and he is more calm and serious."

Lu Zhu became interested, pointed to himself and asked, "What about me? Has anything changed in the past few years?"

Zhao Rui answered, and was as direct as before: "You have become less sharp-toothed, and the whole person exudes the gentle temperament of a good wife and mother."

The smile on the corner of Lu Zhu's mouth was retracted, and he said very concernedly, "Was I very sharp in the past?"

Several people nodded in unison. Lu Zhu is a class cadre in college, and he has a strong sense of presence in several clubs, giving people the feeling of being resolute in everything he does, and never wastes time by dragging his feet.

He Shiyan covered her mouth and smiled, explaining: "The word "sharp teeth" here is a compliment. I actually admire that you can arrange everything in order and do it well, but I can't."

Lu Zhu suddenly felt that life seemed to be in an infinite reincarnation.

When she was a child, she was babbling, like a little Nezha, not afraid of heaven and earth. In junior high and high school, her personality became more and more restrained, she only cared about studying, repeatedly suppressed herself, and even a little wooden. When I got to college, it was like bottoming out, and I was back when I was a child, full of the momentum to do whatever it takes, and I wanted to try anything. Until she graduated and entered the workplace, perhaps it was the environment that grinded people to the point of no edges and corners, she once again restrained her temperament, although she was often praised for being confident and capable, and she was at ease, but she knew in her heart that she had too many hesitating moments.

Many times, maybe taking a big step forward and seeing more and better scenery than wandering in place.

After chatting with friends, Lu Zhu gained a little more, and new ideas popped up in his head.

Huang Shuhan came to play cards with her and pulled her into another small circle, in addition to her, there were Dong Qiuwan, Gu Cheng, and Li Dekai.

Lu Zhu pointed to a group of hair boys: "Aren't you enough people? There are still more, how can you think of playing cards with me. Don't you know that I'm terrible?"

"Who's going to compete with you, it's not hard to get together, pull you over to chat." Huang Shuhan wrapped his arm around her and didn't let her go, "Don't just care about your roommate and snub us." Z.br>

She had chatted with Gu Cheng on the terrace just now, and she was not in a good mood, but after entering the box, Li Dekai called her to play cards, and she suddenly thought that their group of people could always have a strong relationship for so many years, and there was nothing more joyful than this. In this way, her depression flew away.

Lu Zhu sat down with peace of mind: "It's okay to chat, but I'm really not good at playing cards."

Gu Cheng picked up a deck of cards and handed them down one by one: "Play as you like."

I don't know when, Jiang Huaining stood behind Lu Zhu, and when she wrung her brows and didn't know which card to play, one arm crossed her shoulder, and her fingertips clicked her cards: "Make a pair first, you don't have a pair in your opponent's hand."

Lu Zhu tilted his head back and looked up from below: "How do you know?"

Jiang Huaining lowered his eyes, and what caught his eye was his wife's upside-down face, which was still very beautiful: "If you don't count it, you don't remember the cards?"

Lu Zhu smacked his lips: "...... Who plays cards and deliberately remembers cards."

Huang Shuhan clenched his fist and slammed his kneecap, making a dissatisfied voice: "Lu Zhu! If you don't take you like this, who will play cards and ask for foreign help."

Lu Zhu stuck out his tongue and threw out a pair of Ks: "Do you want to?"

"Damn, who can afford to be so big!"

Lu Zhu made a pair, and sure enough, no one intercepted, and finally successfully played all the cards, and turned defeat into victory: "Win!" Lu Zhu raised his hands and clapped his hands with the military advisor behind him.

There weren't a few cards in Gu Cheng's hand and they were thrown on the table. Huang Shuhan took the opportunity to sweep his eyes, and his eyes suddenly darkened: "Big brother, why don't you blow up if you have four A's?"

Gu Cheng bit an unlit cigarette at the corner of his mouth, and said in a slurred voice: "Can you play cards?"

Huang Shuhan choked, and then slammed back: "You can't fight without you."

Jiang Huaining propped his hands on the back of the card seat behind Lu Zhu, and glanced at the man opposite who was squinting for a lighter.

Gu Cheng felt the lighter in his pocket, and his eyes just happened to meet Jiang Huaining, and he moved away quietly.

The cigarette was not lit at all, perhaps considering that there was a lady at the scene.

——

The party lasted until the second half of the night.

For people who stay up late for a long time, nightlife should be like this, but Lu Zhu can't stand it. She yawned a few times in a row, and her head was not so clear that she couldn't even read the cards clearly.

"I'm not playing, I'm so sleepy that I can't open my eyes." Lu Zhu picked up the cup in front of him, drank the last sip of pomegranate juice, and announced the end.

Gu Cheng ignored the fact that there were other people around him, and suddenly stopped her: "Lu Zhu."

Lu Zhu just stood up, paused slightly when he heard the words, and looked back at him. I saw his hand reach into the pocket of his trousers, took out a red envelope and handed it to her: "Happy newlywed."

The second time he said these four words to her, compared to the first time, there was no emotion, this time it was more sincere, full of the warmest wishes.

Lu Zhu didn't hesitate, he took it generously and said thank you with a smile.

She and Jiang Huaining left the scene, and the others could continue to stay if they wanted to play, and it didn't matter if they stayed all night.

As soon as he got out of the elevator, Lu Zhu's feet were light, the center of gravity of his body shifted upward, and he was hugged by Jiang Huaining. The entire corridor was carpeted, silent, only the sound of Lu Zhu's slightly rapid breathing. She was still holding the red envelope given by Gu Cheng in her hand: "Why don't you say hello and scare me."

Jiang Huaining raised his eyebrows and smiled: "I did it on purpose."

"You're still proud? I've learned badly."

"I learned from you."

"I'm not as bad as you."

The two will have some meaningless conversations every day, like elementary school students bickering, and they want to laugh at the end, even if they say something thousands of times, they don't feel tired.

Walking to the door of the suite, Jiang Huaining stopped, shrugged his eyebrows slightly, and gestured to Lu Zhu with his eyes. Lu Zhu pursed his lips and smiled, took out the room card from his pocket, and pasted it on the sensor, a crisp "tick" sound shattered the quiet atmosphere.

Pushing open the door, the room was dark and cold.

Jiang Huaining hugged her, closed the door with his feet, and turned his body half in a circle to face the wall. Lu Zhu fumbled to put the room card *** card slot, and in an instant, all the lights turned on, dispelling the darkness and transforming the cold into warmth.

The two work so well together that they don't even need to communicate verbally.

Lu Zhu was ready to go straight to the topic, but Jiang Huaining took her straight to the panoramic floor-to-ceiling window opposite. A light white carpet was laid in front of the window, and a small floor-to-ceiling lamp emitted a pale yellow light, like dusk at sunset.

The two sat on the carpet, wrapped in the afterglow of the setting sun.

Lu Zhu was a little puzzled, but he didn't ask, thinking that he might have other arrangements.

Jiang Huaining just looked at her quietly, for a while, his gaze moved down, and his eyebrows were slightly raised, not too obvious: "Why don't you open it and see what wedding gift your bamboo horse has sent you?"

The corner of the red envelope was crumpled by Lu Zhu, and through the layer of paper, she could feel that there was something soft inside, not like banknotes.

She tore open the seal and turned it upside down, and a dark blue lucky bag fell on her leg, with bright yellow silk threads with fine stitches, neatly embroidered with the words "100 years of good harmony". The lucky bag contained a peace charm.

Jiang Huaining looked at this thing very familiarly, and recalled slightly: "Did he give you an identical one before?"

"Do you remember?" Lu Zhu put the peace charm back into the lucky bag, and rubbed his fingertips a few times, "On my birthday in the third year of high school, he gave me a birthday gift, and I hung it on the keychain, you should have seen it." After graduating from high school, I didn't often carry my keychain with me, so I took it off and put it in a storage box, and I still keep it in my house."

Jiang Huaining did not say a word.

Lu Zhu tilted his head sharply and looked at his expression.

"See what?" Jiang Huaining put a finger on her forehead and pushed her head back.

"I'm watching...... Is someone jealous?" Lu Zhu shook the small blessing bag in his hand, "You may not know, but this is a very spiritual temple in our hometown. Have you heard of Lingqu Temple? The blessing bag that Gu Cheng gave me at that time was embroidered with the word peace, which could bless me with peace and smoothness, and my wishes came true. At the time of the college entrance examination, I did have my wish fulfilled and was admitted to the university of my choice. Now he is sending a hundred years of good marriage, and it will definitely come true."

Jiang Huaining swore that he was really not jealous. After so many years, he couldn't have been stingy to this extent.

He raised his hand, landed on the top of her head, rubbed it gently, and said, "You can't lose such a spiritual blessing bag, so keep it safe."

The corners of Lu Zhu's lips curved, he couldn't help yawning, tilted his head and leaned on his shoulder, his head a little confused: "What time is it?"

Jiang Huaining told her after reading the time, "It's a little faster."

"Let's sleep." Lu Zhu not only had a confused head, but his voice also dragged a lazy tone.

"Wait." Jiang Huaining tapped his fingers on the mobile phone screen a few times, lowered his head, wiped his lips over her ear, and said in a breathy voice, "Wife, look out the window."

Lu Zhu closed his eyes and opened them slowly, outside the clean and translucent floor-to-ceiling glass window was the city lights that had not yet been extinguished, and the vast sky was in the distance.

The night was deep, and the sharp crescent moon hung above the night, like a faint mark pinched out by a fingernail, and the stars were sparse and sparse.

She didn't know what Jiang Huaining wanted her to see, so she looked at it stupidly for half a minute, then turned her head and asked him, "The night sky doesn't seem to be very beautiful tonight......

Before he finished speaking, he only heard a "boom", similar to the sound of firecrackers breaking through the cardboard box and rising into the air, Lu Zhu was not mentally prepared and subconsciously shrank his head.

Jiang Huaining hugged her shoulders tightly.

It's not Lu Zhu's illusion, it's a real firework. Exploded in the night sky directly in front of them, like pink strands

Begonias bloom to the extreme, gorgeous and grand. Suddenly, clusters of fireworks burst out one after another, round, like cute ping-pong chrysanthemums, and slender, dragging their tails, as if a meteor crossed in front of them, and there were also countless flickering points of light that rose high and burst in an instant, decorating the dark night instead of stars......

No matter what form the fireworks take on when they explode, they are all pink and full of dreamy and romantic colors. It is a romance that a man wants to create for his wife on his wedding night.

The fireworks were set off for her alone for a full eight minutes.

Lu Zhu was dazzled by the fireworks, and his eyes gradually became hazy. Those magnificent fireworks seemed to fall into her eyes and her heart.

Her heart was burned soft.

After a long time, the fireworks ended, and the night sky of early autumn returned to the monotony and uninteresting it had been a few minutes ago, or the lonely and cold crescent moon, with a few stars, but there was no difference between them.

The crescent moon seems to have turned pink, and so have the stars.

Lu Zhu held his face and looked at Jiang Huaining incredulously, there was no sleepiness in her eyes, her sleepiness was driven away by these gorgeous fireworks, and only the bright light of excitement remained: "How did you do it? Fireworks were banned in Jinyang City in the early years, and martial law has begun in the countryside in recent years!"

Jiang Huaining smiled and said with a snarling voice: "Mountain people have their own tricks."

"Say it quickly." Lu Zhu wanted to know too much.

Jiang Huaining tilted his head, and before he could speak, Lu Zhu understood what he meant in seconds, and took the initiative to eagerly lean up and kiss him on the face, kissing loudly.

The corners of Jiang Huaining's lips on both sides seemed to be bolted, and someone lifted them up: "Don't you remember where the fireworks are?"

"Where?" Lu Zhu couldn't remember.

To be honest, although her family moved to the city in her freshman year, she really didn't know the place well.

"We've been there for dates before." Jiang Huaining flicked her head and answered for her, "It's a playground, it's been renovated in recent years, it's very large, and it has a fireworks show permit. I'll pay for tonight's fireworks show to make up for the fireworks you didn't see for the first time in Beicheng for the New Year, and it's also a wedding gift for you."

After a pause, he emphasized very gently, "Let this fireworks bring our wedding to a successful conclusion, even though it's the next day."

Lu Zhu was stunned, the excitement in his eyes faded, and the sourness came up.

He remembers!

It was also the first time he spent the New Year in a foreign country. On Chinese New Year's Eve, she looked at the night sky in Beicheng, so empty, remembering the bridgehead fireworks festival she had seen in the countryside before, and regretted that there were no fireworks to see on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve.

So he braved the cold wind to drive her for a long distance, bought her fairy sticks, and set off a small firework that could not even be called a firework. Later, when it snowed, they rode the snow back home, opened the door, and the record player remained the same as when they left, singing in a whirring and cheering song.

The images in my memory suddenly became clear and began to play out in my mind.

Jiang Huaining took advantage of her distraction, scooped the person over with one hand, and didn't give her a little time to react, her lips were printed on her lips, and she continued to be deeply entangled.

The curtains closed automatically, and the sky and lights were blocked in another world.

The figures on the carpet hugged each other, both of them fell to the ground, and something fell on the ground, maybe it was a mobile phone, maybe it was a curtain remote control. No matter what, no movement could stop them from approaching each other again and again, until they were so close that there was no gap.

This night, Lu Zhu was so filled with happiness that she forgot to tell him that she had made a decision.

I hope to have a small studio of her own in the coming year and continue to move forward in the industry she loves, even if it is a little slower, she doesn't care.
