Chapter 31 May You Be Safe Forever

[-]. About youth

Zhang Zhenglan has been very smart since she was a child. When she was five or six years old, she knew how to use her mind to take advantage of her petty advantage. For example, she agreed to a friend copying his homework but had to run errands to buy popsicles for him, or how to make others willingly give her money after doing something immoral. He's a scapegoat or something.

Although Zhang Zhenglan's parents are both intellectuals, they were both busy with work and supporting their families in the 90s and [-]s. Apart from watching their son practice calligraphy on weekends in an attempt to calm him down, they had no time to spare. Discipline him.This almost completely laissez-faire education method made Zhang Zhenglan like a wild horse that had run loose, becoming more and more lawless as he grew older.From elementary school to junior high school, if he hadn't always been among the best in grades, the teachers don't know how many times they would ask his parents to report to the school.

After entering high school, Zhang Zhenglan settled down a lot, and devoted most of her energy to two things, computers and playing football, which were just emerging in China at that time.He was already excellent in grades and good-looking, coupled with his flying figure on the football field, many girls fell in love with him, and those who were more courageous wrote him a small note to confess their love, but although Zhang Zhenglan Never refute the girl's face, but also unmoved, what should I do, play football, go to the game hall with my buddies to play games on weekends, and then study computers.At that time, Zhang Zhenglan was a young girl in the eyes of girls, a good brother who could play well in the eyes of boys, and a gifted student who slept in class and didn't do homework in the eyes of teachers, but had surprisingly good grades.

When Zhang Zhenglan was in high school like a fish in water, Xiao Shuiguang was in junior high school in Xi'an, and secretly fell in love with Yu Jinglan cautiously.

Zhang Zhenglan is 19 years old this year, has won the National Innovation and Technology Award, and is going to Beijing to receive the award.His ingenuity brought him too many premature successes, so that he became more and more noble and proud.And Xiao Shuiguang was only 14 years old at that time. On the day Zhang Zhenglan went to receive the award, she did horse stance and dance boxing for a long time, until she was exhausted, the coach still did not give her a rest.When going to the toilet on the way, Shuiguang took off his shoes and saw that there were many blisters on his feet, which were painful.

When Zhang Zhenglan was 21 years old, she had nothing to do during the summer vacation, so she asked her college classmates to go on a trip.From north to south, Beijing, Shijiazhuang, Xi'an, Chengdu, Kunming.Originally they decided not to go to Xi'an, but Zhang Zhenglan suddenly became interested and said, "Go for a while, it should be interesting, after all, it is an ancient capital." At that time, Xiao Shuiguang was 16 years old and won the first national martial arts award. Father was very happy, so he didn't force his daughter to practice much during the summer vacation this year, and Shuiguang had time to play with Yu Jingqin and the others.

On the day Zhang Zhenglan came to Xi'an with her college classmates, Shuiguang made an appointment with Yu Jinglan, Yu Jingqin, and Luo Zhi to go to the museum, but Xiaoqin and Luo Zhi released her pigeons together, saying that she was going to Anxin Garden Watching the "FA Cup" competition, so she and Jing Lan were the only ones left to go to the museum.Shuiguang was always nervous that day, because she rarely had the opportunity to go out alone with Yu Jinglan, and when Shuiguang was absent-mindedly visiting the museum, Zhang Zhenglan was also strolling there with her friends.They even passed each other that day, and Shui Guang subconsciously said "sorry", while Zhang Zhenglan, who was walking and listening to music with earphones, just turned his head slightly, and the two of them walked away without seeing each other clearly. .

And after that, more than five years later, they met, fell in love, separated, and finally walked together again.

Many years later, Mr. Zhang, a successful man in his thirties, was asked an interesting question in an interview: "If you have a chance to go back to the past, do something that you wanted to do but didn't do." May I ask how old you want to go back? What to do?"

Zhang Zhenglan thought for a while and then smiled and said: "The last time I chatted with my wife, we went to the same place on the same day in the same year when we didn't know each other. So, I really want to go back there. Find her there and tell her that we will get married in the future, would you like to be with me now? It won't be too late, and there will be many twists and turns. "

There is no such thing as going back to the past, but I'm still glad that we didn't miss each other in the end, and I'm also glad that we were so close when we were young.

——Zhang Zhenglan
[-]. About cherishing

On weekends, after lunch with friends, Zhang Zhenglan went to pick up the car and saw an old man sitting on the side of the road begging for food. He walked over, took a few bills from his wallet, and handed them to her. The old lady with a dirty face looked up at him and said thank you repeatedly, Zhang Zhenglan said: "Go back, it's such a cold day."

The old man said tremblingly: "Good people get rewarded, and good people get rewarded."

When Zhang Zhenglan walked away, he said, "Just report it to my wife."

Zhang Zhenglan wrapped her clothes tightly and walked quickly to her car. It's December now, and the cold wind is really hard to bear. "I can't live through this day. I'm going to freeze to death. When will Mrs. Zhang come over to warm me?" Action is worse than action, Zhang Zhenglan immediately took out his cell phone from his pocket and dialed it. Say, "I told you I was going to freeze to death."

"Brother Zhang, Shuiguang is making dumplings. I'll show her the phone." Opposite was Yu Jingqin.

Boss Zhang blushed, and hurriedly said, "Okay."

Just now Jingqin was teaching her son to walk with the support of the table and chairs in the living room of Xiao's house, when Shuiguang's mobile phone on the table rang, Jingqin saw the name displayed on it, and then yelled into the kitchen, "Shuiguang, brother Zhang is on the phone. The glass door of the kitchen was closed, and Shui Guang replied that Jing Qin didn't hear clearly, she picked up her son, picked up the bell when it kept ringing, and walked towards the kitchen while listening.

In the kitchen, Mother Xiao was rolling dough, Shuiguang was putting stuffing to make dumplings, her hands were covered with flour, Jingqin held her mobile phone to Shuiguang's ear, and laughed softly, "Brother Zhang said he was going to freeze to death. "

Shuiguang said "Hello" helplessly.

The person at the other end had already got into the car, and when he heard the "hello", he said dumbfoundingly, "I acted like a baby to the wrong person just now."

"Oh."

"When will you come back? It's not kind to leave me to play by myself when I'm just newly married! I beg you to come back quickly and save your husband and me. Extremely inefficient."

"Zheng Lan, I'm making dumplings, I'll hang up first, I'll call you later."

Zhang Zhenglan patted the steering wheel depressingly, "You woman... okay, you are responsible for being ruthless, and I am responsible for making trouble for no reason. If you don't call me later, I will fly to Xi'an overnight. Hang up."

Shui Guang couldn't help but shook his head when he heard the beeping sound from the receiver, Jing Qin also listened to it, put away the phone and joked: "Go back quickly, or Brother Zhang really wants to go home!" It's coming to catch you."

Xiao's mother also said: "Yes, girl, let's go back."

Shui Guang, who was driven away, couldn't help but sigh with emotion, the married daughter is really like the water that was thrown out.

The day Shuiguang arrived at Zhang Zhenglan's side, that is, the day after making dumplings, he found it was snowing when he got off the plane.She put on her coat and walked towards the gate of the airport, then took out her mobile phone to make a call, but it was a bit strange that no one answered.When I called again, Zhang Zhenglan answered angrily, "There's a traffic jam. Shuiguang, don't come out, it's cold outside, wait for me inside, fifteen minutes at most."

"Oh, then take your time, don't rush."

"I'm in a hurry." Zhang Zhenglan laughed, "There's a Starbucks inside, buy a hot drink first, and I'll be right there."

"Okay." Hanging up the phone, Shui Guang went to look for Starbucks, but couldn't find it after wandering around for a long time, so he went into the nearby bookstore to look for books.The reading time always flies by quickly, and the mobile phone rang after a while.Shui Guang felt that "not for a while", but he didn't know that more than 20 minutes had passed since the previous phone call, and someone was already anxious, "Where are you, beauty?"

"In the bookstore."

"where?"

"Wait." She withdrew to look at the name of the bookstore, and then reported it, "Where are you?"

"Starbucks, it's all right, you stay there and don't move, I'll buy two cups of coffee and go there."

"I don't want coffee."

"It's pretty picky, so what do you want to drink?" The other side asked with a smile.

"Whatever, not coffee."

"understood."

After that, Shui Guang continued to flip through the travel book in her hand until someone grabbed her waist from behind, "Look so fascinated, you didn't react at all when I approached, if I was a bad person, you would be taken away by someone." Cheaper?"

Shui Guang walked to the checkout counter with the book in his hand, and said, "I know it's you."

"Really?" Zhang Zhenglan handed her the cup of hot chocolate, took the book in her hand, paid for the book, and came out with her arms around her, still asking, "Could it be that there is a sympathy?" Easy?"

"It's the sound of you walking."

"What's wrong with me walking? Nonsense, I was walking on tiptoe just now, where is there any sound? It must be a tacit understanding."

"Haha." Shui Guang laughed dryly, not wanting to say anything.

The two walked to the gate, and Zhang Zhenglan helped her zip up her coat, "Wait here, I'll drive over here."

The snow was falling harder than before, Shui Guang watched him run out, the hot drink in her hand was still steaming, she looked at that figure from behind, her heart was extremely peaceful.She really doesn't ask God to give her much good, now she only asks him for this good, and then returns to him for the rest of his life.

The night he said "get married", she cried for many things.

For so many years, she had too little happiness and too much sadness. She seemed to be walking on thorns, but he finally pulled her to a flat road.He said, Shuiguang, we all need happiness.

Happiness is actually very simple. When a person is alive, there are more good things than bad things, and that's all.She is really not greedy.

[-]. About honeymoon

The honeymoon of the two was arranged by Zhang Zhenglan.After New Year's Day, a [-]-day tour of Europe, Italy, Switzerland, and France, with a group.

This honeymoon trip, in the words of Shuiguang afterwards, was "labor and hard work".

Before going to Italy, the tour guide warned them to be careful of their valuables and wallets. Those thieves like to prey on Chinese people, because Chinese people love to carry a lot of cash with them when they travel.

But for Shuiguang, there is no such problem. She has keen senses, good skills, and she is also careful in doing things. She is not a careless or careless person, so things like being stolen are unlikely to happen to her. .So, no surprises... the rich and carefree boss Zhang had his wallet stolen.

Shui Guang was speechless, "Who said before that 'the one who will be stolen is probably because you didn't take your brains out'...was it you?"

Zhang Zhenglan was even more depressed. During the honeymoon, when he was supposed to show off his "abilities" in various senses in front of his wife, he was cut off by thieves as soon as he came up.

And the tour guide was still adding fuel to the fire, "I have repeatedly reminded everyone to pay attention, how can you still lose it? Mr. Zhang, did you just lose your wallet? What's in the wallet?"

Zhang Zhenglan said with a sullen face, "Money, a few bank cards, an ID card, and a photo of my wife." Hearing the increasingly gritted tone, it seemed that the most annoying thing was that his wife's photo was taken away. thing.

The tour guide continued to add insult to injury, "Hurry up and call back to China to report the loss of those bank cards. Let me tell you, this Italian thief is amazing, he can crack the password of your card in minutes."

Shui Guang was shocked when he heard it, "So powerful?" Turning around, he immediately said to Zhang Zhenglan beside him, "Then let's call and report the loss quickly?"

Boss Zhang laughed at this time, "If those thieves can have this level, why do they do petty theft? Xiao Shuiguang, thank you, you also study IT." A tour guide who knows how to pretend to understand and contribute to the flames.

The elder brother of the tour guide smiled awkwardly, "I also heard what my colleagues said."

"But it's an indisputable fact that something is lost. You should report the loss anyway, right? And your ID card, it's more troublesome to make up later. Fortunately, the tour guide keeps the passport, otherwise you won't be able to go back to the country." Shui Guang frowned. , "Hurry up and call."

No matter how smart and capable Zhang Boss is, he has nothing to do with his wife. After saying "oh", he obediently went to make a phone call. ——By the way, he has nothing to do with thieves.

As a result, just as Zhang Zhenglan reported the loss, an aunt from the same team ran over with a wallet and asked Shui Guang, "Little girl, is this you?"

Isn't that her in the picture in the wallet?
Isn't this wallet Zhang Zhenglan's?
It turned out that after the thief took out the available euros, he stuffed the wallet into the bag of a member of their team.

The elder brother of the tour guide sighed: "The quality of foreign thieves is quite high." Others echoed.

Shui Guang was speechless.

Boss Zhang wanted to swear at people, from the thief, to the tour guide, to the big sister of the same team who found the wallet at night, except for his own wife, because everything the wife said was right.

After the trip to Italy, they went to Switzerland instead. During free time, Shuiguang was going to send postcards to Yu Jingqin and Luo Zhi.

After finally finding the post office, Shui Guang discovered that sending postcards was not easy.First of all, you have to queue up to get the number. The machines that can get the number are all incomprehensible in foreign languages. Shui Guang asked the man next to him for help. Boss Zhang smiled slightly: "Don't worry, wife, leave it to me."

Shui Guang thought that he would get the number quickly in the next second, but in the end, he grabbed a foreign old man passing by, pointed to the machine and said, "Number (number)." I understood immediately, and kindly helped him get the number.Boss Zhang said: "Thank you very much!"

Then Zhang Zhenglan smiled and handed the number to Shuiguang, "I'm good, right?" In fact, Boss Zhang's English is still very good, but he is always good at using the simplest method to achieve the final effect, in short, lazy.

"..."

After writing the address, Shui Guang had a headache again. She looked at the address of Yu Jingqin's home and the address of Luo Zhi's company on the phone, feeling very melancholy. How do you write these in English?Engineering students can't afford to be injured.

Boss Zhang next to him came over with a smile again, "I'll help you."

Shui Guang looked at him suspiciously.

Zhang Zhenglan took the postcard and pen, only to see that he wrote in English: To China, and the address behind it was all in Chinese.

Shuiguang found it incredible, and what was even more incredible was that such a photo had actually been sent!
Then, on the second day in Switzerland, when climbing the Jungfraujoch, Mr. Zhang reacted to the plateau, so Shuiguang had to take him down the mountain first.

"I'm sorry, my wife, I let you miss a scene."

Shui Guang couldn't help laughing at him, "Why is your physique so poor? Exercise well when you get home."

Boss Zhang frowned, poor physique?Is this an insinuation that he is not very strong in that regard?
The next three days in France were the three days Shui Guang didn't want to mention.

On the way back, the tour guide asked them curiously, "During the three days in France, you and your wife proposed to travel independently, where did you go shopping? I think Ms. Xiao is not in a good mood. It seems that she is very tired from shopping these days. of."

Zhang Zhenglan, who is in good spirits, just smiled, "I have been to many unexpectedly beautiful places."

Shui Guang opened his eyes and glanced at the people around him, then closed his eyes and continued to rest.For a honeymoon or something, once sincerely is enough.

Zhang Zhenglan happened to turn around and catch Shui Guang's gaze. It was clear what his wife was thinking, and he thought, how can one time be enough?In his lifetime, he would take her to see all the beauties in this world.She looks at the scenery, he looks at her.

[-]. About work

Since Shuiguang graduated, she has worked three jobs in total. She has devoted herself to each job, but she can't do it for long. In the end, the good job in a public institution that looks good in the eyes of others is also lost because of marriage. Not resigned.After getting married, Zhang Zhenglan kept persuading her to be a full-time wife at home.

But Shuiguang felt that she was not at all suitable for being a full-time wife.

So two days after returning from the honeymoon, Shuiguang proposed, "I want to look for a job when the new year begins."

Just came back from the honeymoon, Zhang Boss of Longxin Joy couldn't help feeling a little cracked, but he still said calmly: "Let me remind you, the place we live is a bit far from the city, you You have to clock in at eight o’clock to work for someone, right? What time do you get up in the morning? Six o’clock? Seven o’clock? It’s still dark in winter. , asked you to work overtime, but didn't give you overtime pay. Oh, and asked you to go on a business trip, are you used to sleeping in the bed outside?"

Shui Guang retorted, "It's not that I haven't worked for others before."

Zhang Zhenglan chose the next best thing, "OK, if you must go to work, you can. I suggest you go to GIT, I don't recommend other places."

Shui Guang was speechless, "We already live together, if we also work together, we won't see each other when we look up, it's easy to get bored, right?"

"How come?" Zhang Zhenglan said with a smile, "It's too late for me to love you."

Shui Guang shook his head, "Rather than going to your place, I'd rather go to Luo Zhi's."

"What do you mean, you?" Boss Zhang bared his teeth, and then said, "Don't forget that I also have shares in Ronaldinho's company, heh, you still fall into my hands in the end."

"..."

Later, student Xiao Shuiguang was admitted to the Municipal Local Taxation Bureau and worked as a civil servant whose main job was to collect taxes from businessmen.

Businessman Zhang Boss: "..."

[-]. About wishes

In the new year, when Shuiguang returned to her natal home, Xiao's mother praised her daughter "looks good" when she saw her daughter. Boss Zhang continued: "Mom, let me tell you, she can eat very well during this time."

When Yu Jingqin next to him heard this, he couldn't help but said, "Brother Zhang, did Shuiguang tell you how much she can eat at most?"

"No, let's hear it?"

Then Yu Jingqin started talking endlessly about classmate Xiao's embarrassing childhood, but Shui Guang didn't stop her.The most carefree period of youth appeared in her mind following Jingqin's description. During that time, there was her, Jingqin, Luo Zhi, and Jinglan. They were always together, or On the way to and from school, or in a snack bar on the street, or on the playground.These pasts accompanied by laughter and laughter have now become distant memories and are cherished in the bottom of my heart.

In the evening, Zheng Lan said to Shui Guang: "When I was a student, I skipped class to eat. My brother expressed his understanding, but you eat rice balls? Eat three rice balls? Why don't you eat some meat? Ah! No way, I feel so bad!"

Shui Guang said calmly: "The pocket money is not enough."

"You and Brother Na, ouch, it really hurts more and more."

"I didn't know you then."

"Now you finally know what it means to meet and hate to be late?"

Shui Guang just smiled and made no comment.Who can decide who to meet first and who to fall in love with in the journey of his life?Only at the moment did he know that in the end it was he who watched the reincarnation of the four seasons with her.

When the spring was warm and the flowers were blooming, Zhang Zhenglan revisited Hangzhou with Shuiguang.The two arrived in the afternoon, and after resting in the hotel for a while, they went for a walk by the West Lake.

The state of mind is different, even if you are looking at the same scenery, the feeling of water light is completely different.The last time I looked at the West Lake, I felt that "the air in the lake is as cold as ice, and the moonlight is lighter than snow".

Zhang Zhenglan held Shuiguang's shoulders and walked along the lake. There were a lot of people coming and going. Some old people were exercising, couples were dating, and children ran past laughingly. : "Slow down, slow down."

Zhang Zhenglan shook her head and said, "From now on, if our child is so naughty, he will be punished by squatting."

Shui Guang was taken aback for a moment, then lowered his head and smiled, "If the child is like you, then he must be struggling every day."

"Hey." Zhang Zhenglan laughed, "If you are like me, then you teach me, I must listen to you very much."

Under the setting sun, the figures of the two reflected on the stone road slowly elongated, and when they walked onto a small bridge, the two stopped.Their shadows slowly overlapped in the water, inseparable.

"Shuiguang, shall we go to burn incense in the temple tomorrow?"

"You don't believe in Buddhism?"

"Who said that, I believe in Buddhism the most, and good deeds are rewarded with good deeds."

After returning from Hangzhou, Shuiguang had no appetite for anything to eat.That day, he just returned home from having dinner with Zhang Zhenglan's parents, and as soon as he entered the house, he rushed into the toilet and vomited.Zhang Zhenglan waited for her to finish brushing her teeth, and took her to the hospital without saying a word.

When the doctor said "Congratulations, your wife is pregnant", Zhang Zhenglan was stunned for a long time, then thanked her, and pulled the water to come out.He took a deep breath all the way, and when he got to the side of the car, he hugged her sideways, "I just pinched myself several times, I thought... I was dreaming."

Shui Guang leaned on his shoulder, and said slowly: "Zheng Lan, I'm used to planning the worst ending in advance, so that no matter what happens in the end, even if I'm still sad, at least I won't be so disappointed that I can't accept it. But at this moment, I want God to allow me to be greedy once, so that I can think about what the best future will be like."

Zhang Zhenglan hugged her tightly, her voice was a little hoarse, "Our future will be very good, it couldn't be better."

If there is such a thing as reincarnation, I hope that I can meet her earlier in my next life. Even if I lose a few years of my life, I will let her suffer less and suffer less.

——Zhang Zhenglan
