Because of the appearance of Lin Jianfei, an imaginary enemy, Huang Aiwu seemed to have suddenly opened his mind and behaved extremely attentively to Liu Meijun.

It's a pity that King Xiang has intentions, and the goddess has no dreams.

Liu Meijun avoided him seemingly out of nowhere, and once the two of them were alone in the office, Liu Meijun would always find a reason to avoid him.

Huang Aiwu realized it later, he didn't care at all, and he enjoyed it every day.

On the contrary, Han Chunlei and Luo Dahong, two outsiders, saw the clue early.

Han Chunlei, as the boss, does not support or oppose the office romance, so he doesn't interfere too much, but he just thinks that Huang Aiwu, a dumb goose, is a little funny.

Luo Dahong is different, as soon as he seizes the opportunity, he makes them happy, which makes Liu Meijun blush every time, but Huang Aiwu is enjoying it.

Time, in such a cheerful atmosphere, passed day by day.

The flood in Dongmen Market has finally receded, and all walks of life have gradually recovered.

Sister Hong's fast food restaurant has resumed its former liveliness with many guests, and the Longjing tea specialty store diagonally opposite downstairs has also reopened again.

Everything seems to be back to the way it was.

Only Ah Hao, Ah Qiang and Zhang Xilu co-opened the Tianle Song and Dance Hall, which has no sign of reopening.

Zhang Xilu still doesn't see anyone every day.

......

In the evening of that day, Han Chunlei went home from work.

Zhang Xilu, who has not been seen recently, is carrying a net bag and appearing at the door of his rental house.

One day is gone, Zhang Xilu has gained weight, and his hair and clothes are cleaner and tidier than before.

However, Han Chunlei found that his face was a little unpleasant.

Han Chunlei shook his head and quipped, "Willing to appear?"

"Hey, I specially bought a few pickled vegetables and asked you to drink a few cups!"

Zhang Xilu grinned and lifted the net pocket in his hand up.

Han Chunlei looked at his net pocket, which contained a few oiled paper packets and a bottle of "Changle Yao" liquor.

"First in. ”

Han Chunlei hurriedly opened the door and let Zhang Xilu into the house.

Zhang Xilu opened a few paper packets, a package of braised beef, a package of pig's head meat, a package of roast goose legs, and a package of peanuts, which were quite hearty.

Han Chunlei found two glasses, simply rinsed them with hot water, and poured four full wines each.

Don't dare to pour a full cup, pour a full cup and take a sip, this liquor is to drink the dead.

Zhang Xilu raised his glass and said, "Come on! Chunlei, I respect you! If you hadn't brought me to Shenzhen at the beginning, my brother would still be squatting at the door of the scrapyard to earn that hard-earned money of a few cents! How can I have a comfortable and good life now?"

Bite!

As soon as the cup touched, Zhang Xilu raised his head and took a sip.

Han Chunlei drank it and said, "You are so sensational all of a sudden, I can't bear it, what's the matter? You haven't appeared for a long time, and when you bubble, it's meat and wine, and you still remember the past, have you encountered any difficulties?"

"Eh, in front of you, I really can't hide anything!"

Zhang Xilu sighed slightly, and refilled the cups of the two people with four points of wine, and then said, "Ah... Alain is pregnant. ”

"Aren't you the person you've been talking about? Pregnancy is a good thing! Then hurry up and get married, why are you still sad?" Han Chunlei said happily.

There was no response.

Looking at Zhang Xilu's expression, he didn't look happy at all.

Han Chunlei asked, "Brother Xilu, is it not enough money to get married?"

"It's not. Hey......"

Zhang Xilu shook his head depressedly, sighed again, and then said, "It's not the banknote, Alan was born in the sixth and fourth years, and he is only sixteen years old this year." Even the age of the certificate is not enough, which marriage will we get?"

"Alan is only sixteen, I damn it, Zhang Xilu, can you do this?"

Han Chunlei also heard that Alan was very young, but he didn't expect her to be so young.

"I ......"

Zhang Xilu was a little embarrassed, and was silent for a while before he said, "Alan and I are serious partners, and we are going to marry her, and we are not just playing." Besides, what's wrong with being sixteen? I'm seventeen years old, and I'll be able to prove it when I'm eighteen, and we're both a year early. Free love is popular now, can't I fall in love before I get married?"

Can you pull a marriage certificate when you are eighteen?

Only then did Han Chunlei realize that he had ignored the difference between the two eras.

In later generations, sixteen years old is the age of high school, and the flowers are fresh for a year, if you want to fall in love, it belongs to campus early love.

Usually college graduates are twenty-two or three years old, so when they are twenty-five or sixteen years old, they are considered by "parents" to be the most marriageable age. In some first-tier cities, it is also a common phenomenon to get married after 30.

In the late 70's and early 80's, the concept of marriage was generally very early.

A woman can register for marriage at the age of 18.

In this sense, Alan is now sixteen years old and seventeen years old, and it is not too early to steal the forbidden fruit with Zhang Xilu.

So when Zhang Xilu said it, he was naturally grandiose.

Han Chunlei asked, "Then what are your plans now?"

Zhang Xilu said: "I plan to beat the child." But I went to the hospital and asked, and the abortion requires not only a marriage certificate, but also a letter of introduction from the unit. In Alain's case, we don't even have a marriage certificate, let alone a letter of introduction. ”

Alain works in a Hong Kong factory, and there is no such thing as a letter of introduction.

As for the Tianle Song and Dance Hall, it is a company attached to the street, in fact, it is not impossible to open a letter of introduction. However, Zhang Xilu and Alan are not married, who dares to take this responsibility to give him this letter of introduction for abortion?

Besides, it's useless to open it, and the hospital won't accept it without a marriage certificate.

Speaking of this, Zhang Xilu poured himself another glass of wine, and said angrily: "Alan and I don't have a marriage certificate, and no hospital dares to take over." I asked Brother Hao for help, but he couldn't find a way. That's why I'm here with you today. ”

This time, Han Chunlei finally understood what Zhang Xilu meant, and he asked with a smile: "Brother Xilu, you don't want me to help you find a way to have an abortion, right?"

"Hmm. ”

Zhang Xilu nodded heavily and said, "Among my friends in Shenzhen, Chunlei is the most capable, and you have a good business and a wide range of people now, so I want to ask you ......."

"Damn, you think too highly of me, don't you?"

Han Chunlei felt that this matter was obviously beyond his ability.

Moreover, he thinks that what Alan is carrying in his belly is always a small life, and he will beat it if he says that he will kill it, will it be a little too hasty and cruel?

Immediately, he asked: "Alain herself agrees to the matter of abortion?"

"Alain?" Zhang Xilu was slightly stunned, then shook his head and said, "I...... I didn't ask. ”

When Han Chunlei heard this, he was shocked and said in surprise: "You didn't even ask for the opinion of Alan as a mother, and you started to talk about abortions everywhere?

Han Chunlei's final tone was a little heavy, full of anger.

Zhang Xilu couldn't help but tremble in his heart when he saw Han Chunlei being so angry for the first time, and said: "Since Alain was pregnant, the two of us have not talked about this child. ”

"Are you not talking? or are you afraid to talk?"

Han Chunlei said solemnly, "Brother Xilu, the child in Alain's belly belongs to the two of you. But she, as a mother, also has the right to decide whether her child will stay or not!"

Zhang Xilu: "This child came too suddenly, and I wasn't mentally prepared, so I don't know how to talk to Alain." ”

Han Chunlei said: "Brother Xilu, a man must be able to carry things on his shoulders and be responsible. ”

As he spoke, Han Chunlei glanced up and down at Zhang Xilu and asked, "Look at you now, you are dressed neatly and cleanly, if it wasn't for Alan picking it up, I'm afraid it would take ten days and half a month to change a pair of pants and wash a shirt, right?"

Zhang Xilu hummed and said, "Yes, she picked it up." ”

"If you look at other girls, they all know that they are so clean and tidy for you, which means that this is a good girl who can run a family and take care of people. ”

Han Chunlei said, "But what about you, you got someone pregnant, and your first thought was to have an abortion, and you didn't discuss it with her, the client, and you just said a word, are you doing a human thing?"

"Chunlei, when you say that, brother, brother is really panicked. Zhang Xilu lowered his head.

Han Chunlei: "I think you should really be ashamed, no matter whether this child wants to stay or stay, at the very least, you must ask Alan for his rights as a mother." How can there be a situation of carrying the child's mother on her back and going around alone to have a fetus? If you let Alain know, she will definitely be heartbroken, and the world is not worth it!"

Zhang Xilu: "......"

The air in the rental house seems to have frozen.

Zhang Xilu lowered his head, thinking about things, and was silent.

After a long time, he slowly raised his head and said solemnly: "Brother is wrong about this, listen to you, I will discuss the child's affairs with Alan tomorrow!"

"Tomorrow?"

Han Chunlei rolled his eyes and urged, "Go today! Go now! The girl's family is unmarried and pregnant, and she is most helpless at this time, and she needs the most care from others, especially the company of people close to her." You said that you have been delaying for so long, and you haven't given a formal explanation, so why don't you think nonsense? Go quickly, go now!"

"Okay, okay, I'll go now. ”

Zhang Xilu poured himself another glass of wine, this time seven points full.

As if he wanted to borrow wine to strengthen his courage, he raised his head and finished taking three or two mouthfuls, then opened the door and went downstairs out of the courtyard, and went straight to Alain's house.

Regarding some issues in the article that Alan can register his marriage at the age of 18, I would like to briefly mention that before 1981, China applied the "Marriage Law" promulgated in 1950, and the legal age of marriage at that time was 20 years old for men and 18 years old for women. (Note that this is not a year old.) ）

In 1980, the new Marriage Law changed the legal age of marriage to 22 for men and 20 for women.

The Marriage Law was passed on 10 September 1980 and came into force on 1 January 1981 and was repealed on 1 January 2021.
