Chapter 53: Mrs. Zhou
Jiang Nan didn't say anything on the side.
Zhou Zhengan suddenly felt the warm touch of the hand held on his lap, he looked down and saw Jiang Nan's hand lightly covering his hand, Zhou Zheng'an's heart tightened, he looked up, Jiang Nan didn't look at him, but the smile on the corner of his mouth was clearly seen by Zhou Zhengan.
Zhou Zhengan couldn't help but hook his lips as well.
It didn't take long for the sound of the door opening outside again, this time it was Ren Xianzhi and Zhou's father who came back, and they brought back a bucket of fish, and the fishing rod was set up outside the yard.
The two of them didn't show much surprise when they came in and saw Zhou Zheng'an, they greeted each other as usual, but Ren Xianzhi raised his eyebrows in surprise when he saw Jiang Nan also there.
He looked at his wife, and suddenly understood a little, and nodded politely at Jiang Nan.
"Auntie, you can add a fish to the dish at noon today." Ren Xianzhi shouted at the kitchen.
But in a second, the aunt who was cooking in the kitchen responded: "Okay." ”
"I'm a little busy, though, so I might have to wait a while." Auntie said.
Ren Xianzhi said: "It's okay, I'll deal with this fish and then give it to you." ”
The process of fresh fish is more complicated, and it takes a while to deal with it.
"I'll do it." Jiang Nandao: "You are responsible for fishing, I am responsible for handling, and Auntie is responsible for doing it, each performing its own duties." ”
"Okay." Ren Xianzhi laughed and handed her the bucket.
Jiang Nan just stretched out his hand to pick it up, and someone next to him had already taken the bucket, Ren Xianzhi and Jiang Nan both raised their eyes to see that it was Zhou Zhengan.
Zhou Zheng'an's face was pale, and he looked at Jiang Nan and said, "I'll help you." ”
Jiang Nan nodded slightly.
There is a unique sweet and ambiguous atmosphere between the two of them who have just been together, their eyes seem to be drawing, Ren Xianzhi walked away with interest, and went to watch TV with his wife.
He had just sat down and was about to take Zhou Zhixu, Zhou Zhixu dodged to the side, and before Ren Xianzhi could react, he saw Zhou Zhixu with a disgusted face: "Didn't I say, don't you go to take a bath when you come back from fishing?" There is a fishy smell on my body, and my dad is much more hygienic than you. ”
Zhou Zhixu's father went upstairs to take a bath as soon as he got home.
Ren Xianzhi: "......"
He looked down and sniffed his clothes, and there was no fishy smell, why couldn't he smell it?
Ren Xianzhi figured it out, this week, like her brother, is quite sensitive to taste and cleanliness.
Zhou Zhengan and Jiang Nan on the other side were kind, Zhou Zhengan walked in front with a bucket, Jiang Nan followed behind him, and the two walked until they reached the faucet in the yard where water could be flowed, and Zhou Zhengan lowered his body to pour the water in the bucket.
Watching him play, Jiang Nan squatted down next to him, propped his head sideways and watched his movements, neither of them actually spoke, enjoying the quiet passing moment.
"When are you going to fulfill your promise?" Zhou Zhengan said suddenly.
Jiang Nan was stunned: "What?" ”
"I said, when are you going to marry me?" Zhou Zhengan said it much more bluntly this time.
Jiang Nan's little face suddenly turned red, and he whispered, "Didn't you just come back?" ”
"Oh, just remember."
Jiang Nan saw that Zhou Zheng'an's face was calm, but the unnatural emotions in his eyes still exposed his heart, and she deliberately quipped: "Are you so afraid that I will forget?" ”
Zhou Zhengan didn't avoid it, and said calmly: "Of course." ”
He looked at Jiang Nan and gave him a meaningful look: "You are a person with a criminal record." ”
"What antecedents?"
"Someone, who didn't tell her about my marriage relationship with her mother, finally chased it back, tried to hide my unsightly lover."
Jiang Nan was reminded by him like this, and finally remembered what happened when they were on the plane and at the airport, and she was speechless about it.
"Oh yes, when I came this morning, your mother was very enthusiastic about me, not at all like her son's ex-wife, and then I asked Zhixu to come, and she said that she has to ask you about this, what do you think?" Jiang Nan had an idea, and his brain quickly diverted the topic.
Zhou Zhengan retracted his gaze, didn't dismantle her, and said, "Because I didn't tell them about our divorce." ”
"Why?" Jiang Nan asked subconsciously.
Zhou Zhengan said: "Because at that time, I was thinking, has our fate really stopped? If you don't stop, you'll come back to me and tell them it's all pointless. ”
"And what if we really end there?" Jiang Nan's eyes touched him gently.
Zhou Zhengan's voice was as calm as a pool of stagnant water: "Then I don't think about any other people and marriages, this matter is the same sooner or later."
"You know, it's always hard for someone like me to fall in love with new things, including people."
But such a person, who has only been with you for a few months, has a deep love for you and is fascinated by you.
"Later, I always felt that it was still possible with you, and I always felt as if something was pulling me, bringing me to your side, and the rope that held you and me seemed to be broken as long as I pulled it lightly, so I was always extra cautious, for fear that it would really break if I didn't pay attention."
Jiang Nan's palms were clenched tightly, she couldn't speak, Zhou Zhengan stood up, picked up the bucket and said, "Let's go, go to the kitchen to deal with fish scales." ”
The sky was exceptionally fine on this day, the clouds were white and the sky was blue.
“......”
At twelve o'clock in the afternoon, not long after the people started to eat, Jiang Nan received a call from the company asking her to report, so she hurriedly said goodbye to the Zhou family and rushed to LT.
Zhou Zhengan was going to send her, but Jiang Nan refused, and Jiang Nan asked him to eat well.
Seeing Jiang Nan leaving in a hurry, Zhou's mother said on the side: "Xiao Jiang is really busy with this work, Zheng'an, your Uncle Wang sent a lot of fresh oranges a few days ago, all of which were shipped from other places, when you go back in the afternoon, bring some for Xiao Jiang to eat and fish, you also bring back a few, you keep them to eat." ”
Zhou Zhengan was a little absent-minded, and responded: "Okay." ”
"Mom, no, Jiang Nan can't eat oranges, he'll be allergic." Zhou Zhixu said, saying that she looked at Zhou Zhengan strangely: "Brother, what are you talking about, Jiang Nan is very allergic to oranges, don't you know that you have been together for so long?" ”
Zhou Zhengan raised his eyes slightly, the doubts in his eyes flashed, he quickly lowered his eyes, thinking about what Zhou Zhixu just said, but forgot to reply to her words for a while, Zhou Zhixu didn't say anything more, and thought that Zhou Zhengan was wandering just now and didn't pay attention, so he didn't ask much.
Zhou Zheng'an became very chaotic in his heart, Jiang Nan couldn't eat oranges, but that day in the villa, he pushed back all the oranges she was going to send to Gu Shengwei and Shen Qingfeng.
What was Jiang Nan thinking at that time, and what were the words she didn't say?
The basket of oranges that she hadn't touched was left in the room by her and didn't take it down the mountain, but Zhou Zhengan didn't ask more: Why didn't you eat it?
If he had asked her at the time, she would have told him that she was allergic to oranges.
He was accustomed to ignoring it, but because of it, he ignored the true feelings of his wife.
That day, Zhou Zhengan sat alone on the sky-high chair on the balcony on the third floor of Zhou's house for a long time, until Ren Xianzhi took a cup of tea and sat opposite him, and they were the same as always.
Zhou Zheng'an's eyes were silent, as if there was a cave with the darkest color hidden in the night, silent and empty, making people curious and afraid to move forward.
Ren Xianzhi saw that he was in a bad mood, and said jokingly: "Brother, do you remember the last time we sat here together?" ”
Zhou Zhengan looked at him and didn't speak, but he already had an answer in his heart, that day was the first time he brought Jiang Nan to Zhou's house, she was very timid, but she deliberately pretended to be very generous, but she didn't know that her acting skills were very clumsy.
Ren Xianzhi said: "That day, I was also sitting in this position, and you asked me at the time if I should have children if my husband and wife don't love each other?" So now, do you have an answer? ”
Zhou Zheng'an raised his eyebrows, and they all knew in their hearts that the topic they were talking about now had nothing to do with childbirth.
"If you have the answer, what do you want to do so much? Just do your best, you taught me these things before, why do you want me to tell you now? Ren Xianzhi smiled: "People, the authorities are fascinated, and you still have to be a bystander to see it clearly." ”
Zhou Zhengan lowered his eyes and laughed softly.
......
On the last day of Jiang Nan's short vacation, Zhou Zhengan and Jiang Nan went to get their certificates, and this time both of them had smiles on their faces on the red certificates.
Jiang Nan moved back to Zhou Zheng'an's apartment, and she was surprised to find that the layout in this house was still the same as when she left, and even the Spring Festival couplets that she pasted during the Spring Festival were still pasted in place.
"Didn't you change it out?" Jiang Nan asked Zhou Zhengan.
When he first posted it, Zhou Zhixu said that it was not good-looking, and Jiang Nan thought that Zhou Zhengan would definitely not like it, but he didn't expect him to replace it.
As soon as Zhou Zhengan moved Jiang Nan's luggage into the door, he heard her voice asking him, Zhou Zhengan swept around the Spring Festival couplets and paper cuts that were glued everywhere in the house, bent his lips and said: "After a long time, I thought it was quite good-looking, so I didn't move." ”
"But when I look at it now, I suddenly realize that it really seems to be a bit ugly."
Zhou Zhengan raised his eyebrows and said, "Yes, the aesthetics have been upgraded." ”
Jiang Nan glanced at him, but he didn't have a seizure, Zhou Zhengan continued: "If you want to change it, just change it, I said it a long time ago, and the things in this house are half of yours." ”
Jiang Nan was about to nod when he heard him say again, "Our wedding room is entrusted to you, Mrs. Zhou." ”
Jiang Nan was stunned for a moment and looked at him.
Zhou Zhengan had a shallow smile on his face: "What? It's time to have a wedding with me this time, I've already discussed it with my parents, the wedding venue is still furnished, and my mother will help us choose it with Zhixu. ”
"Next, just wait for the parents of both sides to meet." Zhou Zhengan said seriously.
Jiang Nan pondered for a moment when he heard this, nodded and said, "I really have to pick a time to talk to my mother." ”
