Chapter 71: The Content of the Letter
Jiang Nan quickly ticked the menu on the menu, and then handed the menu to the waiter with both hands, accompanied by her shallow "Thank you." β
The waiter walked away with the menu.
Jiang Nan propped her head and looked out the window, the snow outside was getting heavier and heavier, and a thick layer of snow had fallen on the roofs of the cars parked on the side of the road and the shops opposite the restaurant, and she could see that she was fascinated.
"Beixin is covered with heavy snow every year."
Zhou Zheng'an followed her gaze and glanced outside, and suddenly asked: "In the winter in the south, will it snow so much?" β
Nanlin, a place where Jiang Nan has lived alone for nearly ten years.
Hearing him ask, Jiang Nan withdrew his gaze to look at him, shook his head lightly and said, "No, the climate in Nanlin is hot, even in winter, it is at most frozen on the hanging beam." β
"And how are you doing over there?" Zhou Zheng'an's eyes were dark, and his eyes were as quiet as the sea.
Jiang Nan thought for a while before answering him: "I felt bad in those years, because I was alone, I couldn't share my happiness with others, and I didn't have anyone to share my sadness, so I felt very boring no matter what I did. β
Zhou Zheng listened to her quietly.
"However, in the past two years, I seem to have a different idea, Nanlin is actually very beautiful, there are many unique plants that are not available here, and those ethnic minority customs, and then I found that I actually like it over there."
Zhou Zhengan hooked his lips slightly, "Then when our wedding is over, I will accompany you to Nanlin again." β
Jiang Nan nodded quickly: "Okay, then think of it as a honeymoon." β
"That's all you want?" Zhou Zhengan raised his eyebrows and deliberately teased her.
"Who said that a honeymoon has to be an island and a beach, and the mountains and waters can't be beautiful?" Jiang Nan's chin rose slightly.
Zhou Zhengan's smile deepened, and he said, "Okay, of course." β
However, he always wanted to give her more, and Nanlin may not be a honeymoon in the true sense of the word, but more like a backtrack.
While the two were chatting, the dish had already been brought up.
Originally, Zhou Zhengan wanted to eat that plate of tomato and beef brisket pasta, but Jiang Nan looked at his plate of black pepper pasta and found that he still wanted to eat Zhou Zhengan's more.
Zhou Zhengan noticed her thoughts and took the initiative to change the position in front of the two.
Jiang Nan was satisfied.
Melodious violin music plays in the restaurant, and a man in a tuxedo presides over an event in the center of the staircase, and the customers sitting around him watch happily, sometimes lowering their forks and clapping their hands.
Jiang Nan and the others didn't pay much attention to the movement over there, the two of them were like staying in each other's small space, only talking and joking with each other.
A few minutes later, the tuxedo-clad man walked up to them and stopped in front of them, interrupting their quiet and peaceful dinner.
With a polite and thoughtful smile on the man's face, he bent down slightly and said, "Mr. and Madam, congratulations on becoming the lucky winner tonight, the number plate on your table has been drawn, and there is a lucky bag to give to you." β
A small red lucky bag lay quietly in his palm, and the man handed it to the lady at the table.
Zhou Zhengan glanced at it casually, didn't pay much attention, he looked at Jiang Nan.
Jiang Nan was a little surprised, she politely reached out and took the lucky bag from the man's hand, and said, "Thank you." Then he asked, "Is this what kind of activity is this?" β
"Oh, it's our restaurant's anniversary." The man replied with a smile.
After the man finished speaking, he turned around and left, he glanced at Zhou Zheng'an before leaving, and saw that Zhou Zheng'an didn't have any instructions, he turned around and left as if he had completed the task.
Zhou Zhengan's eyes were still on Jiang Nan, watching her be happy because of this sudden little surprise.
Jiang Nan held the lucky bag in his hand, shook it at Zhou Zhengan with some excitement, and said, "I won the lottery for the first time." β
Zhou Zheng'an bent his lips slightly, and he said, "Open it and take a look?" β
Jiang Nan opened the lucky bag and looked inside, and poured out a necklace with a rabbit style hanging from it, she said, "It's pretty good." β
"Put it on and take a look." Zhou Zhengan said that, he got up and walked to her side, sat down, and helped her put on the necklace.
Zhou Zhengan gently kissed Jiang Nan's forehead, and said softly: "Happy newlywed, my wife." β
Jiang Nan's eyebrows were crooked, revealing a piece of teeth, and he looked at him: "You too." β
Seeing that she was so happy, Zhou Zhengan finally didn't say that the lucky bag was actually a surprise he gave her.
She just happily said that this was her first time winning the lottery, and Zhou Zhengan didn't want to expose this little surprise lie.
This surprise that he had carefully planned for nearly three days, had calculated the day and planned to bring her to this restaurant today.
After confirming the relationship with Jiang Nan, Zhou Zhengan always felt as if he owed Jiang Nan a lot, he tried his best to make up for those shortcomings, and when he saw Jiang Nan happy, he felt satisfied in his heart.
......
The day before the wedding, according to the customs of Beixin, Jiang Nan was taken to live with Shen Li, and when Zhou Zhengan returned home from work, he saw the empty house, and suddenly became a little unaccustomed.
Jiang Nan was not there, and he had no interest in cooking at home, so he went downstairs to eat a bowl of noodles, and the other tables in the restaurant were all lively, only Zhou Zhengan was quiet here.
His face was flat, and he looked out of place in this somewhat shabby little restaurant, so that the proprietress who brought the noodles couldn't help but look at him a few more times.
Zhou Zhengan looked at the plain noodles in front of him and suddenly felt a little funny, the person who is going to get married tomorrow, how could he be so lonely the night before.
Before he had time to move the chopsticks on the table, Jiang Nan's phone call came, and her tone was quite relaxed, asking him what he was doing?
Zhou Zheng'an heard the lively talking over there, the cheerful music, and even the familiar voice of someone, so the words that came to his mouth turned into a rhetorical question, and his tone was lazy: "What are you doing?" A bachelorette party on the eve of your wedding? β
Jiang Nan took the mobile phone and walked all the way to the balcony, closed the door, isolated most of the sounds in the room, and suddenly her ears were much clearer, she replied to him: "It shouldn't be a bachelor party, it's Zhixu and Sister Jinyue, a group of people said they were coming to celebrate for me."
My mom went out for a square dance, saying that she was leaving space for us young people. β
Zhou Zhengan raised his eyebrows, no wonder, he heard the voices of many acquaintances.
He sat alone and ate noodles here, and her side was very lively.
"Are you happy?" He asked Jiang Nan.
Jiang Nandao: "Happy, such a lively atmosphere is because of me, I am very happy." β
Zhou Zhengan hooked his lips slightly, and at this moment, he suddenly remembered something that he had forgotten, the letter.
For some reason, he now wanted to know the contents of that letter in particular, and eager, urgent emotions suddenly enveloped him.
Because of the New Year's card for the third year of high school, because of the bookmark that was sandwiched in the book, and what Qian Sun said, all of them circled in his mind over and over again, and he now felt that there was the answer he wanted in that letter.
"Jiang Nan, I still have something to do here, hang up first?" He said as he stood up and turned to the phone.
Jiang Nan said "um", and as soon as she took it down, she was hung up over there.
Jiang Nan turned his head and glanced into the living room, Zhou Zhixu was fighting with Xu Pingsheng, and it happened that Xu Pingsheng lost, Zhou Zhixu unceremoniously gave a punch on his shoulder, and then laughed.
is such a simple game, which actually provoked Gao Xinyue and Su Jinyue, who were sitting on the sofa, to laugh, and the two of them chatted very well.
Zhou Zhixu shouted at Jiang Nan on the balcony: "What are you doing? It's not too cold. β
Jiang Nan was called in by her.
Xu Pingsheng had just been punched, and sat on the sofa with an aggrieved face and complained to Gao Xinyue on the side, saying that Zhou knew that Xu was bullying him, and Gao Xinyue pushed his face away in disgust.
"Let's go away."
At this kind of poignant time, Zhou Zhixu was still mending the knife on the side: "Is it a man?" Ren Xianzhi has to take at least ten punches a day from me at home, and he doesn't cry like you. β
Xu Pingsheng was even more sad, and looked at Jiang Nan, the only human person in the room, Jiang Nan said at the right time: "Okay, okay, don't bully my master of ceremonies." β
Xu Ping stated that Tian was the one who wanted to preside over Jiang Nan Zhou Zheng'an's wedding.
"Look, look, this is a good girl." Xu Pingsheng almost applauded her, tears were about to fall, and then in exchange for the other three girls' more blatant dislike.
β......β
Zhou Zhengan walked all the way to the parking lot and then found his car, opened the door, and he sat in.
The smell of the car in the underground garage for a long time is a little stuffy, but the air outside is dry and cold, and the two smells are mixed together, which is not very comfortable for a while.
The garage was dim, there was no sound, Zhou Zheng'an only had the overhead light on in the car, and he didn't close the door.
Zhou Zhengan forgot what kind of mentality he took out of the co-pilot's storage box and how he opened it.
The paper inside the letter was already yellow, Zhou Zhengan opened the folded paper, and when he saw the words in the top corner, his heart trembled suddenly, and even the hand holding the paper trembled slightly.
Five words - Zhou Zhengan, hello:
The letter was addressed to him.
The letter, which had been hidden for nearly ten years, was finally delivered to the recipient many years later.
The content of the letter isβ
Senior Zhou Zhengan, I walked into a shop called Memoirs today, and the store asked us to write what we wanted to say about the future, but I didn't know what to write, I just suddenly remembered you, maybe because you are all my memories. I don't know if the letter will be sent or where it will end up, but because of this, I seem to have a reason to confide in it.
