Chapter 26

According to the Talmud, if there is great beauty in the world, ninety percent of it is in Jerusalem; if there is great suffering in the world, ninety percent of it is in Jerusalem.

Wu Tong has always liked this place where suffering and beauty are combined, because she feels that she is a person who combines suffering and beauty.

So, she likes this restaurant called "Jerusalem Bistro".

Wu Tong smoked three cigarettes in a row, took out the fourth, thought about it and put this one back.

There is a stone road from the bathroom to the private room. I don't know how to deal with the air vents during the decoration. There is no smell of food on this road.

Wu Tong has never met the owner of this store, and never asked him if he walked the Passage of Jesus in Jerusalem.

But she was sure that he must have passed by, because Wu Tong had passed by, she understood that feeling, the not-so-long road in the store created a similar solemn feeling.

There is a model of the Holy Sepulchre in each private room, and guests can choose to take it away when they leave.

Wu Tong has already saved eight of them, all of which are packaged in glass covers and placed on the bookshelf.

"The dishes are all ready?" Wu Tong walked in with a faint smell of perfume, and sat between Zheng Jiaxuan and Wu Shanren.

Wu Tong usually only sprays perfume in the closet, so she rarely smells the pungent perfume directly on her body.

Today, in order to cover up the smell of smoke, I had to spray a little on my body.

She doesn't want Wu Shanren to know that she smokes.

Zheng Jiaxuan had already taken off his coat and tie.

While pouring boiling water for Wu Shanren, he said to Wu Tong: "Well, I see that this restaurant cooks all kinds of dishes, but there are too many things and I don't know what to eat, so I ordered hot pot."

After finishing speaking, he added another sentence: "Mr. Wu also said that he wanted to eat a hot pot."

Wu Tong gave him a blank look. Why does this person eat hot pot every time he goes out to eat? He is really poisoned.

"My dad said he would treat me to a good meal today, so you ordered hot pot?!"

Zheng Jiaxuan said confidently: "You asked us to order it. I reached an agreement with Mr. Wu."

Wu Tong is angry.

Wu Shanren watched the interaction between the young couple and felt that the son-in-law was not bad.

He had heard a little about Zheng Jiaxuan, a famous man before.Very talented and capable.

It's just that he is a member of the Zheng family, and for this alone, he can't even agree to them being together.

Wu Shanren asked: "Tongtong, how long have you been together? I didn't hear you say that you have a boyfriend. Why are you getting engaged so soon?"

Wu Tong thought about it. When did they get together? It's hard to be sure.

In my memory, I seem to say that I want to act in a scene, pretending to be a couple, but it turns out that I went to bed as if I was not acting; after that, I went to bed again...

As for the engagement, they never discussed it!

Wu Shanren's question was difficult to answer, Wu Tong said briefly: "We have only been together for a few days, and I just heard about the engagement."

The Wu family father and daughter looked at Zheng Jiaxuan together, Zheng Jiaxuan straightened his back and smiled like a big boy.

"I just decided on the engagement."

Speaking of this matter, Wu Shanren looked a little serious.

"You can't be careless about this important marriage! First of all, you two have to think it over and discuss it. After that, you need to consult your parents. Then your parents will meet again, and the marriage contract can only be made after the negotiation is reached."

Wu Shanren's words were mild but stern, accusing them of beheading first and playing later.

"You should learn from what Yang Jiang did back then. How did she do it? In her letter to Qian Zhongshu, she said: It is useless for us to be happy now. It is necessary for both parents and brothers to be happy. Nai Che is always free from obstacles. Look, how well this is said! Qian Jibo, Qian Zhongshu’s father, read this letter and said it is really smart.”

Wu Tong curled his lips and said: "Qian Jibo is an old man who is not authentic, peeking at his son's letter!"

"Be serious, don't be sloppy!" Wu Shanren said the Internet language seriously, and Wu Tong couldn't help laughing.

"Dad, don't tell me, you are more suitable for finding a little girl than Uncle Leizi. The teenage girl in his arms has been peeking at you just now, did you notice? You have the kind of uncle that many little girls like now Fan Er, trendy and artistic, still a teacher, close to the water and the first to get the moon, really suitable for the teacher-student relationship."

Wu Tong was just joking at first, but Wu Shanren's face suddenly became ugly after hearing this, and the emotional changes were so fast that people were caught off guard.

Wu Shanren faced Zhang Jiang's purple face, and his voice suddenly became hoarse and inexplicably said: "Don't talk about me, talk about your business! Now that your mother is not by my side, I can't let you do such an important thing so casually." decision. Jiaxuan, what do your family members say?"

Zheng Jiaxuan replied: "I haven't told them yet."

"You young people now are too reckless and impulsive! You can get married quickly, get divorced every now and then, and treat everything as a trifle!"

Wu Tong said helplessly: "Dad, it is impossible for me and Jiaxuan to make both parents and brothers happy. First of all, I know what you think. My sister is because of the Zheng family. Do you mind? Yes Isn’t it right?! One more thing, their Zheng family is a wealthy family with a big business, you are afraid that I will be wronged and suffer in the past, right?!”

Wu Shanren sighed and said, "Since you know all about it, you still want to marry him?"

Wu Tong said firmly: "Yes, I want to marry him. Although he neither formally asked me if I want to be her girlfriend, nor formally proposed. But I am very sure that I want to marry him."

"What's the reason?" Wu Shanren asked.

Zheng Jiaxuan looked at Wu Tong expectantly, waiting for her answer.

Wu Tong avoided Zheng Jiaxuan's gaze and Wu Shanren's gaze, stared at the water glass in front of him, and said, "There is no reason."

At this time, someone knocked on the door, and two waiters walked in.

One is carrying a soup pot and the other is pushing a cart.

Plug in the electricity, adjust the fire, put the dishes on the table in an orderly manner, and leave after working for a while.

During this time, the three people at the table were silent, thinking about their own concerns.

When the water boiled, Wu Shanren spoke first, "Let's eat first, this matter should be discussed in the long run."

As he spoke, he put a plate of radishes into the pot.

Zheng Jiaxuan opened a bottle of beer, poured three glasses, and placed them in front of the three of them.

Wu Tong picked up a cup and finished it in one gulp, summoned up his courage and said to Wu Shanren: "If my mother can agree to my marrying Jiaxuan, will you agree?"

Wu Shanren shook his hand holding the wine glass, and spilled the beer, "What did you say?"

Wu Tong asked pressingly, "Do you want to meet Liu Man?"

The wine glass in Wu Shanren's hand fell to the table, and he said with a trembling voice, "Did you find her?"

"Well, Jiaxuan and I are going to meet her, you can go with us."

"No, no more..." Wu Shanren immediately rejected the proposal.

"Dad, what are you avoiding?"

 Wu Shanren: Ma Dan, why did you let me see Liu Man?
  Wu Tong: Dad, don't you want to see me?
  Wu Shanren: Of course I don’t want to see you!
  Wu Tong: Why?
  Wu Shanren: I have to go to the Children's Palace to teach the children on weekends!

  Wu Tong: ...

  Wu Shanren: Why should I go, I don't want to go... I'm exhausted after taking such a long flight.

  Benta: How can the plot continue if you don't go? !Obediently obey the arrangement~
  Wu Shanren: You are inhuman!
  Benta: Are you human? !
  Wu Shanren: I... didn't I hurt anyone?Besides, didn't you write all of this? !You wrote me as a pervert, and you still blame me? !I haven't settled with you yet!
  Benta: ...Escape~
