see you in spring

Chapter 25 Middle-aged Love [-]

It was three o'clock in the morning, and Han Guyu was lying on the bed, feeling extremely aggrieved.

She thought of the boy who waited on time downstairs in her dormitory every day.

She recalled how she met him back then.

She remembered that it was a time when she went to a class taught by Master Miejie. She was late for putting on makeup and was made to stand at the door of the classroom in front of everyone.

She was so thin-skinned at that time that she almost cried, but the boy with half a haircut and wearing a white T-shirt stood up and accompanied her out to stand in full view of Master Jue and everyone.

The whole classroom immediately became excited.

The first thing the boy said to her was: Hello, my name is Zhou You.

He leaned against the wall with his hands in his pockets, looking like a playboy.

She asked him why he did this, and she smiled playfully and said that the classes inside were too boring and that standing up was good for her body and mind.

Although she was arrogant and felt that this boy was not serious, she was grateful for his actions, which made this embarrassing moment for her become her highlight moment.

After that day, he never left her sight.

He knew that she liked to drink yogurt, and he would hold the cold yogurt to her chest in winter just so that she could have a mouthful of yogurt that wouldn't hurt her teeth when she went downstairs.

Whenever it was time for final review, he would go to the study room early to occupy the position with the best ventilation and the brightest light.After Han Guyu finished his dinner, he walked slowly to the study room with small square steps. The first thing he did when he saw her was that he was so hungry, he took out chocolates from his pocket and handed them to her. She eats as she learns, and doesn't wander around too much with her brain.

After she agreed to fall in love with him, Zhou You used his bicycle to take her to scenic spots near the school every weekend, never letting her get bored.

She remembered that one time, it rained heavily on their way back. He didn't want her to get wet in the rain, so he put her on the nearest bus, and then rode hard in the rain to follow.

She sat in the last row by the window and watched him chasing after the car in the heavy rain. He took off his hands and put them on his head, expressing his feelings to her.

Whenever the bus stopped at a red light, he would catch up with her and say loudly at her window: "Han Guyu, I love you."

Then he whistled and rode past her window laughing.

As soon as the light turned green and the bus started moving, he was left behind again.Zhou You once again tried his best to catch up, and when the next red light came, he once again loudly confessed his love to Han Guyu in the car.

This kind of desperate enthusiasm that only a teenager can have made Han Guyu become the focus of the car.

Although her face was red, she was happy and proud, because the boy who dared to speak and act always had her in his eyes and heart.

Thinking of what happened back then, Han Guyu could even cry and laugh.But at that time, she would never have imagined that the boy who said that his lifelong wish was to be with her would now not even want to talk to her.

She laughed and cried again.

Although Han Guyu and Zhou You are not locals, their family backgrounds are quite similar.Zhou You’s parents are both public officials in second-tier cities, while Han Guyu’s parents are teachers’ families in new first-tier cities.No matter how you look at it, they are the right people.

Han Guyu's parents had been working under the system all their lives and knew the importance of ensuring harvests despite droughts and floods. In addition, the family only had one daughter, so they used all their connections early to get a job in a vocational school near home before Han Guyu graduated. The school arranged a leisure job for her.

Similarly, Zhou You's parents also found a good job for their son.Han Guyu's parents didn't want their daughter to marry far away, and they felt that traveling around for fun would make their daughter suffer in the future, so they set a condition that if they wanted to go to Han Guyu, Zhou Yu had to come to them. The parents' selfish intention was to help. The daughter urges her future son-in-law.

Of course Zhou You's parents didn't want their son to step in the door. After all, he was also their own baby and had been pampered since childhood. How could they be willing to let him work in someone else's house?

Both families refused to compromise, and both tried their best to make the other party accommodate themselves.

In order to prevent the two adults from quarreling, Han Guyu and Zhou You made a compromise decision: they both stayed in Jincheng and worked hard based on their own abilities. If they really couldn't survive, then Zhou You would follow Han Guyu home. After all, The future development of first-tier cities will be better than that of second-tier cities.

The two parents had nothing to say about the two young people's decision.

But when Zhou You was in school, he spent all his energy chasing Han Guyu, so how could he still have time to study?With his grades, it would be good to graduate. In Jincheng, where two PhDs could be killed by throwing a brick blindly, it was impossible to find a good job.

In addition, he didn't like those private companies with high-pressure management and the sales industry that required smiling faces to all kinds of people, so he had trouble finding a job.

At that time, in addition to Dongqing who had received the offer early, Sun Yan, Jia Lie, Liu Quantao and the others were also like Han Guyu who traveled around, going out for interviews during the day and returning to the rental house at night to submit their resumes.Several people have also established a small group and often share their interview experiences.

At that time, Sun Yan and Jia Lie found jobs one after another. It wasn't that Han Guyu didn't receive the job invitation, but that she wanted to find a stable job within the system just like her parents.Taking the civil service examination in Jincheng was a fantasy, so she could only settle for the next best thing and get a teacher's certificate.

Among the six people, only Zhou You and Han Guyu were soon left without a job.Han Guyu wanted to research it, but Zhou You really couldn't find it.

In Jincheng, even the teacher's certificate is not so easy to pass.Zhou You's parents didn't want their son to do anything, so they called him every day to urge him to study.But Zhou You who lives in a rented house all day long just wants to try his best to make delicious food for Han Guyu who is immersed in studying.

A child is better than a mother. Zhou You's parents finally put down their old face and begged their grandfather to sue their grandmother, so they found their son a promising job as a zoo conductor in Jincheng.The old mother was exhausted mentally and physically and told her son to change jobs if there was a chance in the future.But I didn't expect Zhou You to be very satisfied with this job. After all, this job doesn't have to work from [-] to [-], and there is no competitive pressure. You can go home from work at midnight, and then go out to eat delicious food with Han Guyu. You can also spend time with your girlfriend during the weekends. It's just for the sake of it. Tailor-made by him.

Under the pressure of both Sun Yan and Jia Lie having found stability and brilliance, Han Guyu once thought about giving up the research and finding a company that looks similar.But when I think about Zhou You, who only wants to have fun, I probably won't be able to count on him if he wants to live a better life in the future.That's why she gritted her teeth and took the exam for two years under pressure. Finally, she got this teacher's certificate and competed to become a Chinese teacher in a public elementary school.

That year was the most successful year for the six of them in Jincheng. After that, the three of them got married, bought houses, and had children one after another. All kinds of troubles in the workplace and in life came one after another.

Thinking of all she had experienced with Zhou You over the years, her heart softened again.

To be fair, after marrying Zhou You, Zhou You was actually a good husband, except that he was not motivated and did not care about things at home that he considered unimportant.

Not only compared to Jia Lie, who was struggling to get a house in the school district, but also Sun Yan, who had no job and was busy taking care of her children and husband's family all day long.She has no children and does not have to live with her mother-in-law. She is much more comfortable than having two roommates, but this does not mean that she does not have worries.

Generally speaking, if an adult man and woman live together for one year, have normal intercourse and do not take any contraceptive measures, if they do not get pregnant, it will be considered infertility.

During the year when she and Zhou You planned to have a child but never did, Zhou You went through countless tests, including routine tests, semen tests, endocrine hormone tests, genetic tests, and prostate fluid tests.

Han Guyu also completed everything from gynecological routine, basal body temperature measurement, fallopian tube and ovulation testing, to endocrine hormone testing, cervical mucus and uterine testing, immune antibody testing, etc., but still could not find the cause.The two then conducted further tests for blocking antibodies and chromosomes, and finally determined that Han Guyu had ovulation disorder, which prevented them from conceiving a child.

From the day he found out it was difficult for her to conceive, Zhou You never expressed his desire to have a child in front of her.She knew how strong her mother-in-law was, but Zhou You blocked all the harsh words from her parents, preventing her from feeling any pressure from her husband's family.

In the past few years, she had not thought about doing in vitro fertilization. She also went to the hospital with Zhou You to learn the specific steps of in vitro fertilization. When Zhou You heard that the operation mainly used artificial methods to fertilize eggs and sperm in vitro, it required puncture to retrieve eggs, and After the success rate of IVF was only 40%, I decisively pulled her out of the hospital.

At that time, he told her that it didn't matter whether he had children or not in this life, as long as he had her, it was enough.

She held him and cried for a long time that day, and now her eyes are still wet when she thinks about it.

One night, Han Guyu's mind was like a movie, playing the ups and downs she and Zhou You had gone through for more than ten years. When she thought about the quarrel with Zhou You tonight, her calm state of mind was different from the pessimistic state of mind just now. There are huge differences again.

The strong love in youth will eventually fade away, and it is the most affectionate confession to be able to stay till the end.

In fact, she knew better than anyone else what Zhou You was doing to her, but it was because he was good to her that she was able to vent her anxiety and anger of the past few days on him without any scruples.

She would apologize to him properly tomorrow, and she knew he wouldn't blame her.

After struggling until dawn, she finally fell asleep in bed.
