MTL - Seventy Couple’s Daily Routine-Chapter 85 first sight
Lin Wei always thought that she and Zong Shao had only met twice before they got married, but today she learned from her mother that they might have met once before. If you add all the faces you have seen before, there may be two, three, four, five, six, seven or eight times.
It just feels... weird.
However, Lin Wei also knew that although it was quite a coincidence, she couldn't confirm that Zong Shao was that person, so she asked, "Mom, do you remember what Zong Shao looked like before?"
"How long ago?" Mother Lin asked.
"Seven or eight years ago," Lin Wei said, not quite sure, and asked, "Did you meet him then?"
"I've seen him. The year he came here was in Shicheng. I went to see him the day your Aunt Lan was discharged from the hospital, and I saw him at that time." Mother Lin said in retrospect, "He looks almost the same as he does now. Nothing has changed."
Lin Wei didn't quite believe it: "Impossible, I have changed a lot four years ago from now."
"That's because you have grown, but the facial features are not the same." Mother Lin said, thinking, "If you have to say, Zong Shao has grown a lot compared to the beginning, he would not look at it now. His aura was that of a tall, thin, tall boy, by the way, his skin was quite white at the time, and he might have been trained to tan, and it became darker year by year."
That's it, although she couldn't remember what the young man she saw outside the ward looked like that year, but she didn't have any impression at all. In her memory, she was a tall and thin man with fair skin.
When I dated her, Zong Shao had been a soldier for several years. Not only did his skin get darker, but his body became much stronger. In addition, his facial features grew a lot, and his temperament became more mature. He connected with the vague figure in his memory.
In addition, Mother Lin had never mentioned Chen Xinglan's divorce in front of Lin Wei before. She always thought that Aunt Lan was the one who died of her husband, and only returned to Shicheng after thinking about falling leaves.
It wasn't until the two started talking about marriage that Lin Wei knew that Zong Shao's parents had divorced, and her mother looked bad every time she mentioned Zong's father, so she didn't let her ask more.
After the marriage, the aunt did not mention her ex-husband in front of Lin Wei, and because of her mother-in-law's attitude, she was afraid of making her sad, so she never asked.
Therefore, Lin Wei only learned that Zong Shao's father was in the capital after receiving a letter from the capital a few months ago.
Therefore, even if Lin Wei knew that Zong Shao might have grown up in the capital, went to a military academy after graduating from high school, and after her parents divorced, her mother returned to Shicheng alone, she did not tell her to be the one who came from the capital, went to military school, and her parents divorced. Later, the mother returned to Shicheng alone to contact the teenager.
After all, many years have passed since that encounter.
But today, when I heard Mother Lin talk about the past, Lin Wei thought of that young man, and then connected him to Zong Shao.
With this connection, Lin Wei felt that the similarity between the two was not 100%, but 98%.
So at dinner, Lin Wei couldn't help but look up at Zong Shao and imagine what he would be like if he was whiter, shorter in stature, and thinner in stature?
Zong Shao couldn't resist Lin Wei's "hot" eyes.
It's not that I'm embarrassed, but because her eyes are too direct, Lin's father and Lin's mother who are sitting across from them have noticed it and glance at them from time to time, so that Zong Shao wants to discuss with his daughter-in-law. Look when no one is there.
But it was impossible to negotiate. He could only stretch his hand under the table, poked his wife's waist with his fingers, and motioned him to look up.
Who knew that Lin Wei didn't understand what he meant and asked, "What are you poking at me for?"
Lin's father and Lin's mother were coughing, Zong Shao... It can only be said that he has been a soldier for so many years, and he also has hundreds of people under his command, so he can still keep his composure, and coughed and said, "I have something to say. ."
Everyone at the dinner table raised their heads: "What's the matter?"
Zong Shao said: "I will start my vacation tomorrow, until the first day of the new year."
It sounds like a lot of fake, but: "Isn't that just two days?"
Zong Shao nodded and said, "Well, I work for two days in the first and second days of the new year, and continue to rest on the third and fourth days of the new year. It has been like this until the ninth day of the new year."
Lin Wei calculated in her heart, although it was the second day off, but Zong Shao could also have six days off during the Chinese New Year. Not much, but not too little, anyway, they don't go anywhere during the New Year.
Lin Wei nodded and said, "Very good."
Mother Lin also smiled and said, "It's good, I was worried that you were going to camp in the 30th year of the year, and I told Weiwei whether to move the New Year's Eve dinner to the evening. Since you're at home, let's have lunch at noon. ."
The time for New Year's Eve dinner in Shicheng is not uniform. However, the Linjiazui Brigade usually eats at noon. They usually go to the ancestral hall to worship before the New Year's Eve dinner. After the ancestor worship is over, the activities on the 30th day of the new year are over, and there are free activities from the afternoon to the evening.
However, since Lin's father and Lin's mother are willing to come to their daughter for the New Year, they will not be the kind of people who abide by the rules.
During the day, because he was not sure whether Zong Shao would have a holiday in his 30th year, Mother Lin also discussed with Lin Wei, saying that if he couldn't come back, the New Year's Eve dinner would be moved to the evening.
Of course, since Zong Shao was determined to be home in her 30s, she still prefers to have New Year's Eve dinner at noon, she's used to it.
…
Although when Lin Wei washed the pig's large intestine with flour, Mother Lin felt her head hurt when she looked at it, but she didn't eat less after the fat intestine was served.
Not to mention, it is very clean after washing with flour, and the taste is really good.
I just can't think deeply, I can't get down the chopsticks when I think about it.
You don't have to think about it when you eat. After eating, Mother Lin still took Father Lin, and severely criticized the wasteful behavior of the young couple, and asked Father Lin to talk about the two children.
Father Lin learned that the pig's large intestine was washed with flour, and also felt that his daughter-in-law was too wasteful. But when I thought that I couldn't stop eating and wanted my daughter to do it again, I couldn't say anything too harsh. I only said, "It's really inappropriate to wash the pig's large intestine with flour."
Mother Lin waited for a long time, but did not wait for the following, and asked, "Is this gone?"
"Didn't I say they're doing it wrong?" Father Lin said embarrassedly, "The main reason is that this fat sausage tastes really good, and neither of us ate less..."
Now that they are both old and married, Mother Lin can't see what Lin Jiu's father's idea was? Immediately said: "Come on, I think you are greedy, and you want your daughter to do it for you."
Lin Wei immediately said, "If you guys like to eat it, Mom and Dad, I'll go to the vegetable market early tomorrow, and I'll buy some more..."
"What to buy!" Mother Lin interrupted her daughter angrily, "You can eat something so expensive once in a while, eat it every day, how much money do you burn? Before we leave, no, after we leave, can you If you eat less, eat less, so much flour will disappear after washing, don’t you feel bad?”
"We used to be too extravagant," Zong Shao took the initiative to admit his mistake and took the responsibility on himself, "Actually, Weiwei seldom cooks this dish, and occasionally it's because I want to eat it, but don't worry, I will eat it in the future. You must restrain your urge to speak, and live your life with diligence and thrift."
Seeing that the son-in-law had a good attitude in admitting his mistake, Mother Lin didn't say anything about the young couple, but said, "I didn't say this to teach you a lesson, but I just hope you can live a good life, don't eat today and forget about tomorrow."
Zong Shao took Lin Wei's hand and said, "We all understand what you mean, we will live a good life, Weiwei, don't you think?"
Lin Wei immediately stated: "That's right."
Seeing that the two listened to their own words, Mother Lin felt relieved and packed up her clothes and prepared to take a bath.
When there are many people in the family, taking a bath becomes a problem. Although the temperature is not low and it is easy to sweat, everyone takes a bath every day. But even if one person washes for ten minutes, it will take six people an hour.
What's more, Lin Wei's mother and daughter both start bathing in half an hour. It is clear that Ruirui likes to play in the shower, so it also starts in half an hour. In addition to the time to clean up the bathroom, it takes nearly two hours for the family to take a bath every night.
They finished eating at seven o'clock, and then they talked again. When Zong Shao, who was the last to take a bath, returned to the master bedroom, it was ten ten.
He pushed open the door and looked to the right habitually. When he saw Lin Wei closing the storybook, the two children closed their eyes and asked, "Are the children asleep?"
Lin Wei put her finger to her mouth and hissed, "Just fell asleep." She put the storybook on the bedside table.
Zong Shao was not as careful as Lin Wei. The first thing he did after going to bed was to carry Mingming, who was lying on her left, to his younger son's right.
"Don't wake him up!" Lin Wei reminded.
Zong Shao was very confident: "Don't worry, he doesn't wake up so easily." Except when Rarity first came to the island, Rarity woke up several times in the middle of the night, but now the brothers basically close their eyes and sleep until dawn. He wasn't worried at all.
The wife's left position was vacant, and Zong Shao lay down naturally and asked, "Why do you keep staring at me at night?"
Lin Wei didn't react and asked, "When did I stare at you?"
"At dinner time."
"Did I stare at you back then?" Lin Wei didn't think she was staring at Zong Shao at all, and said, "Didn't I just look at you a few times?" And it was still intermittent.
"That's because you looked at it for a long time," Zong Shao asked. "Did you not notice that your parents were looking at you all the time?"
Lin Wei really didn't pay attention and shook her head.
Zong Shao didn't bother with this question, and continued to ask: "Why did you look at me at that time?"
"I..." Lin Wei was about to answer, but stopped when she saw Zong Shao's smug expression, and changed her mind to ask, "When was the first time you saw me?"
Zong Shao's expression stopped, and he looked down at Lin Wei: "Why do you ask this all of a sudden?"
Lin Wei smiled and said, "I'm curious, can't I ask?"
In fact, when Lin Wei asked this question, there was some expectation in her heart.
Although the first meeting after growing up was just a chance encounter, her change was not as great as Zong Shaoda. If he had a blind date, he would still remember her, so it shouldn't be impossible for him to recognize her.
But he never said anything they met before, is it because he doesn't remember her, or because there are two people in this world who have the same experience?
Lin Wei didn't know, she raised her head and waited for Zong Shao's answer.
Zong Shao lowered his head and looked directly at Lin Wei's eyes with anticipation, his heart was slightly itchy.
Because of the itch, he moved his hand on the back of Lin Wei's neck unconsciously, stroking her fair skin, and as she moved close to him involuntarily, he opened his mouth and said, "The first time I saw you was when... "
Lin Wei raised her eyes and heard him say, "January, 1966."
