Chapter 32: A Window of Paper
Today is the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, and there are many Spring Festival couplets posted on the door of the hot spring villa, and I heard the chef of the restaurant say that those who stay here to eat today can be given drinks.
Jiang Nan and Zhou Zhengan went back to the room to change clothes and rest for a while, and when it was almost twelve o'clock, the two walked from the residence to the restaurant.
Compared with their attitude of the elderly on vacation, Jiang Youan's group was really lively and refreshed, and they arrived a few minutes earlier than them and had already ordered food.
There were a lot of people on the first floor, and they chartered a private room, which was on the second floor.
When Zhou Zhengan and Jiang Nan walked in, the waiter with the menu had just come out of it, and they only walked in after the people came out.
Jiang Ningyuan joked happily: "It's really sleepy."
The other meaning in these words was too heavy, Jiang Nan was thin-skinned, lowered his head, obviously didn't do anything, but he was a little uncomfortable.
Zhou Zhengan stared at him and said coldly: "It's not like someone, I don't seem to have eaten breakfast today."
There was some laughter in the room, and before Jiang Ningyuan raised his eyebrows and spoke, Su Jinyue said first: "Zhou Zheng'an, I didn't recruit you."
"Did I say you? Or are you in the same group as Jiang Ningyuan? Zhou Zhengan looked innocent, and then suddenly realized: "I forgot, you came together in the morning."
Su Jinyue has nothing to say, she is the truth of this matter.
It's all to blame for Jiang Ningyuan's dead neurosis.
Su Jinyue remembered what happened last night, and the more she thought about it, the more angry she became, and she couldn't help glaring at Jiang Ningyuan.
Now it's Jiang Ningyuan's turn to be innocent, what's the matter? The relationship between him and Su Jinyue that had just eased was destroyed by Zhou Zheng'an?
He glanced at Zhou Zheng'an, this guy is really dark.
Zhou Zhengan didn't seem to see it, and after sitting down, he slowly wiped the bowl in front of him with a tissue.
Jiang Nan gently hooked his lips on the side.
It turns out that Zhou Zhengan will also have such an interesting time.
It seems to be a little different from the one she knows.
It didn't take long for the food to be brought up, the fish and meat were all ready, and Shen Qingfeng was still there and said politely: "Let's eat casually at noon, and let's eat something good in the evening."
Jiang Ningyuan looked at the radish that was carved into the shape of a pigeon, and said with a smile: "The chef of the old Shen family is cooking more and more stylishly, much higher than the last time we came."
As he spoke, he sandwiched a "pigeon" and put it on Su Jinyue's plate, and Su Jinyue said angrily: "This is raw!"
Who wants to eat raw turnips? She almost didn't start beating someone, but with Jiang Ningyuan's appearance, he might be more excited to beat him, so Su Jinyue restrained herself.
Jiang Nan put a piece of squirrel fish in his mouth and slowly tasted the sweet taste.
Most of the squirrel fish made in restaurants are made directly with ready-made tomato sauce, but it seems to be different here, Jiang Nan tastes pure tomato sweetness, more like boiled, and the taste is very positive.
She didn't like sweets, but she thought a little more at the moment, and put another piece in her bowl, Zhou Zhengan saw it when she lowered her eyes, and thought that she had a soft spot for sweets.
"Eh, why don't we play a game of truth or dare?" Halfway through the meal, Shen Qingfeng proposed.
"Okay." Jiang You'an suddenly became interested.
The other people naturally echoed a few words, and no one would be interested at this moment.
Shen Qingfeng picked up the empty bottle that had just finished pouring the drink and put it upside down on the table, pointing, "In this way, turn to whoever comes."
With that, he pushed the bottle with his fingers to spin it.
Su Jinyue and the others all sat up straight.
Jiang Nan's eyes kept on the bottle, and he was a little nervous in his heart, for fear of turning to himself.
After two rapid rotations, the bottle slowed down and pointed in one place.
Fortunately, it wasn't her, Jiang Nan breathed a sigh of relief.
Gu Sheng said generously: "Ask."
"It's a choice of truth or dare." Jiang Youan said on the side.
"Share a secret that you have hidden deep inside." Jiang Ningyuan said lazily.
Gu Shengwei was silent when she heard this, and seemed to be really thinking, but in a few seconds, she already had an answer and replied: "I have a person who is very sorry, and I have done something that is very sorry for her."
Gu Shengwei's words stopped here, Jiang Nan looked down at the past, as if there was nothing, she always felt that Gu Shengwei seemed to glance at herself just now.
"What is this, it's the same as not saying." Su Jinyue said.
Gu Sheng shrugged his shoulders slightly and smiled: "I have already answered."
Shen Qingfeng waved his hand: "Okay, then the next turntable will come from Sheng Wei."
Gu Shengwei stood up and turned the bottle.
The bottle stopped in front of Jiang Ningyuan.
Jiang Ningyuan raised his eyebrows.
"This is a fire in front of the door." Shen Qingfeng said.
"Don't be verbose, just ask, I don't choose to take a big risk, I'll kill you." Jiang Ning is far away.
"Lao Jiang, tell me about the thing you jumped off the building for love back then, and say it in front of the big guy." Shen Qingfeng said.
Hearing this, Jiang Nan raised his head and jumped off the building? Jiang Ningyuan jumped over the building for love?
She was a little more curious.
Su Jinyue hooked her lips, the incident back then is funny enough to say now.
"Okay, I don't have anything to say, aren't the parties here?" Jiang Ning looked at Su Jinyue from afar, the tail of the fox's eyes was slightly raised, and he couldn't say how amorous he was: "Su Jinyue, if you dare to play Lao Tzu and disappear and break up, Lao Tzu will also haunt you as a ghost."
Obviously, these words were full of jokes, but Su Jinyue's heart just moved hard, and she was gently suppressed in her heart, and it hurt.
The events of that year can now be told as a joke, but the scars that have healed in them can still be easily torn apart, revealing the most unbearable side.
To be honest, if Jiang Ning Yuanzhen hadn't jumped from the fourth floor that year and injured her foot, and the ground was covered with blood, she wouldn't have turned around.
Not to mention the years after they split up and merged.
......
Jiang Nan was a little surprised, he didn't expect Jiang Ningyuan to look so easy-going, and he also had such a paranoid side.
Jiang Ningyuan's next turn of the bottle turned to Jiang Nan.
Jiang Ning said from afar: "Yo, it's just right." ”
Jiang Nan was pointed at the bottle, feeling a little nervous, she waited for everyone's questions.
Jiang Ningyuan wanted to say that he would let Zhou Zhengan ask this, but he didn't expect Shen Qingfeng to speak unexpectedly first, his tone was easy-going, but the words he said were really a little unpleasant.
"Jiang Nan, I'm very curious about you, I heard that because of the relationship between Zhixu, you and Zheng'an are also old acquaintances, after so many years, when did your mind move? Don't say that a blind date makes you suddenly have an idea, it's too. His gaze was meaningful: "You won't have calculated it a long time ago, right?" ”
Jiang Nan's heart slammed, and he looked at Shen Qingfeng with a deep frown.
She has anger and sorrow.
Although she had also learned Shen Qingfeng's unfriendliness to her before, she didn't expect Shen Qingfeng's prejudice and hostility towards her to be so great.
Zhou Zheng'an frowned and glanced at Shen Qingfeng.
Everyone present was a little sluggish, and everyone didn't expect Shen Qingfeng to suddenly stiffen the field.
"I don't have the so-called calculations you mentioned." Jiang Nan stood up and said coldly, "I'm sorry everyone, I'll go back and rest first." ”
After saying that, Jiang Nan turned around and opened the door of the room and went out.
The atmosphere in the room was still a little stiff, and Shen Qingfeng smiled: "Just kidding, Zheng'an, your wife can't afford to play a little, it's really boring, similar to this joke, don't we often play it when we are together?" I haven't seen anyone angry. ”
"Light breeze, a little too much." Gu Sheng frowned slightly.
"If you know you can't afford it, don't open it." Zhou Zheng'an glanced at him coldly, Shen Qingfeng was stunned, and in the next second, Zhou Zheng'an got up and stood up, pulled out a chair and walked out.
The door opened and closed, looking deserted.
"Shen Qingfeng, what's the matter with you? What jokes can be made and what jokes can't be made, can you tell the difference? Su Jinyue threw the chopsticks on the table speechlessly, and no one was interested in eating.
"I notice something is wrong with you? Why is it so sharp to other people's little girls? Jiang Ningyuan looked at him.
Shen Qingfeng shook his chopsticks and didn't reply.
“......”
When Zhou Zheng'an chased him out, Jiang Nan was sitting on the same step she was sitting on this morning, holding a bottle of water in her hand, holding water against her chin, her eyes looking at the ground quietly, not knowing what she was thinking.
Zhou Zhengan's originally fast pace slowed down, and he walked over to Jiang Nan and sat down.
"Are you angry with Shen Qingfeng?" Zhou Zhengan said.
Jiang Nan didn't speak, nor did he look at him.
Everyone thought that she was angry because of Shen Qingfeng's unmeasured jokes, but no one knew that Jiang Nan was heartbroken because of his own thoughts.
It's as if the treasure that has been hidden so deeply is suddenly pulled out of the shadows mercilessly, and the man still holds her baby in his hand and tells her, look, you are nothing.
Shen Qingfeng's words were half right, it was that half, tearing her apart.
At this moment, the person she had already thought about was sitting next to her, and he must be thinking about how to comfort her, but Jiang Nan didn't know what to say to him.
She hoped that Zhou Zhengan wouldn't say anything, just sit quietly with her here for a while.
But Zhou Zhengan still spoke, he said: "I'm sorry for Shen Qingfeng to tell you." ”
Jiang Nan's heart was quietly torn, she couldn't speak, she could only stay quietly.
There always seemed to be a paper window between Zhou Zhengan and her, her head was full of messy paintings, but his one was as clean as a blank sheet of paper.
Obviously, a light poke can pierce the paper window, but no one has reached out.
What Jiang Nan wrote on paper that Christmas that year was like a big joke, and now that it has come true, this joke is even bigger.
When she was a student, she thought that the meaning of marriage was different from falling in love, but she forgot that marriage also means love, and Zhou Zhengan could never fall in love with her.
Just like Zhou Zhengan is sitting next to her at this moment, their hearts are not together.
Zhou Zhengan looked at Jiang Nan sideways, there was something in her eyes that he couldn't understand, but the faint sadness couldn't be dissolved.
......
Night came quickly, and Shen Qingfeng originally meant to let the cook cook another big table of meals, but when a few people inadvertently passed by the lawn in the housing center, where to eat tonight and how to eat were silently decided.
The barbecue in the wild made a few people excited.
When it was not yet dark, the charcoal began to burn, and when it was getting dark, the fire became bright.
Su Jinyue and Jiang Ningyuan sat in one place with a thin bamboo stick to wear things, and handed them to Jiang You'an, who was baking things, while Gu Shengwei and the others were in charge of setting up tables and chairs.
Smoky and sultry.
When Jiang Nan went to get the dishes and chopsticks in the small kitchen in the courtyard, Gu Shengwei also walked beside her at some point.
The two walked side by side in silence.
The hallway was coming to an end, and the light on the lawn in the distance was dim, and the light on the faces was dim.
"Jiang Nan." Gu Shengwei called her.
Jiang Nan's footsteps suddenly slowed down, but he didn't bend his head.
Gu Shengwei continued: "I'll say sorry to you for Shen Qingfeng." ”
Jiang Nan raised her eyebrows, she didn't have any energy, she joked softly: "You guys still have a tacit understanding." ”
"What?" Gu Shengwei didn't hear clearly.
Jiang Nan stopped, looked at her and said, "Although I am not familiar with you, I am not the kind of person who cares, so you don't have to come over and tell me this one by one, I am not angry with Shen Qingfeng, you can rest assured." ”
Gu Shengwei's face was a little strange, but in an instant, she said, "Okay." ”
They took the dishes and chopsticks back, and the skewers had already been brought to the table quite a bit, and there was an empty seat next to Zhou Zhengan and on Jiang Youan's side.
Gu Sheng glanced at it and sat down with Jiang Youan.
Jiang Nan stood in place for a while and sat next to Zhou Zhengan.
