Chapter 75 I Like Men Like Me
Lin Shuyi asked the factory for a day and a half off, half a day this afternoon and a whole day tomorrow, so after buying shoes, the two went to a state-owned hotel for dinner before going back to their respective homes.
Because his girlfriend was by his side, Zhou Jianguo didn't think much about it. When he got home and lay on the bed, he recalled the scene when he met Lin Shuyin this afternoon.
"Oh!" Zhou Jianguo sighed.
He didn't lie, he liked his girl very much and loved her, but he couldn't help but feel his heart beating fast when he saw his second sister, because she was the first woman he liked after all.
It's just that they are destined to be together but not destined to be together.
It's just a few days away. It would have been better if he had said it earlier.
Zhou Jianguo sighed again and thought, forget it, everyone is married now, and he is going to get married too, so there is no point in thinking about those unnecessary things.
Because their son was getting married, Lin's father and mother were very busy in the afternoon. They went to buy food to prepare for tomorrow's banquet. Lin's mother wanted to ask Lin Shuyin to come over to help.
But the son-in-law felt embarrassed, so he let it go.
Lin Shuyin and Shen Guannan did not go there in the afternoon. They returned to the guesthouse after leaving the department store and had dinner at the state-owned hotel.
Shen Guannan, "Wife, will we be back the day after tomorrow?"
Lin Shuyin, "Yes, the day after tomorrow afternoon. We will probably have dinner together tomorrow night, which will definitely be late. Let's have a good sleep and be fully refreshed the day after tomorrow afternoon to set off."
Shen Guannan: "Okay."
It was getting late, and the two of them washed up and lay down on the bed. Lin Shuyin yawned, "People really can't relax. If they relax, they will be in trouble."
When she was in the army, she was usually very energetic during the day, but now she yawns from time to time.
Shen Guannan stretched out his arms and said, "I'll hold you while I sleep."
Lin Shuyin grumbled over, and Shen Guannan patted her like he was coaxing a child, and suddenly said, "Wife, I have lived for 26 years, and you are the first girl I have ever liked since I was a child."
Lin Shuyin spread her legs and put them on him, using him as a human pillow. "Me too, you're the first man I've ever liked."
Shen Guannan, "Well, you can only love me in your life."
Lin Shuyin, "Of course, if I like someone, that's just being an adulterer, mentally being an adulterer."
Shen Guannan, "mentally a slut"
Lin Shuyin, "Yes, even if a man and a woman do not have physical relations, but they are thinking about others in their hearts, they are mentally cheating."
Shen Guannan, "I understand, wife."
Lin Shuyin touched his nose with her fingertips and said, "Don't worry, I'm not that kind of person. For the rest of my life, you're the only one I care about, both in my heart and in my body. I won't let you down."
Shen Guannan held her hand and said, "Well, don't let me down tonight."
Lin Shuyin, “............” This is the first time I’ve seen something like this.
the next day.
Brother Lin got married.
Lin Shuyin and Shen Guannan arrived at the Lin family on time at seven o'clock. Lin's elder sister and brother-in-law also came. Not long after, Lin Shuyi came with her boyfriend.
Lin's mother greeted him warmly, "Jianguo, have you had breakfast? If not, there's food at home."
Zhou Jianguo was very polite, "I've eaten, auntie."
Lin's mother said, "Okay, sit down and drink some tea first."
Zhou Jianguo, "No, no, auntie, if there's anything I can do at home, I'll do it."
Indeed, Lin's mother said, "Then you and your two brothers-in-law should set up the table. The bride-picking team should be here soon."
The round table was too big for one person to sit at. Of course, this was the case for Zhou Jianguo and Xu Shengli. People like Shen Guannan, who were tall and had slender limbs, could reach both ends of the round table.
One person can do it.
After several people set the table, they placed sweets, cakes, melon seeds, fruits, etc. on it.
The dishes in the kitchen were all ready. With nothing else to do, the brothers-in-law chatted together. Zhou Jianguo said, "Brother-in-law, I heard from Shuyi that you are the battalion commander in the army."
Shen Guannan nodded, "Yes."
Zhou Jianguo, "How many people are there in a battalion?"
Shen Guannan, "About 500, three companies."
Zhou Jianguo smiled, "Second brother-in-law, you are really young and promising. You became a battalion commander at the age of 26."
Shen Guannan also laughed, "No, no."
Zhou Jianguo, "Second brother-in-law, how did you get to know my second sister? Was she singing on the stage during a performance and you were listening to her songs in the audience?"
"No, she took the train to the army and sang for everyone..." Shen Guannan's eyes were full of smiles when talking about the scene of meeting his wife.
Brother-in-law Xu Shengli, "And then you chased Shuyin?"
Shen Guannan, "No, she was a new recruit and I didn't tell her until half a year later."
Zhou Jianguo, "And then you two got married?"
"yes."
Xu Shengli, "You two are pretty fast, very quick."
Shen Guannan, "She said I was very much her cup of tea and she liked men like me."
Xu Shengli smiled and said, "Okay, okay, that's good."
Zhou Jianguo touched his nose.
Shen Guannan, "The fortune teller said that we were destined to be together. He said that I was born in the year of the Rooster and she was born in the year of the Dragon. We are a match made in heaven. No one is more suitable than us."
Zhou Jianguo, "Brother-in-law, did you two go to a fortune teller? Feudal superstition is not acceptable."
"I didn't do it on purpose. Their art troupe went to the countryside to perform, and I went to look for your second sister. An old man in the village told me about it."
That's not true. Shen Guannan is just making this up.
He continued, "Actually, I don't believe in this either, but my wife and I are very compatible in every way and we always think alike."
"I think they are right. We are the best match for each other."
Xu Shengli listened, "I've been arguing with your elder sister lately. Is it because our zodiac signs are incompatible?"
Shen Guannan, "Brother-in-law, what's your zodiac sign? What's your zodiac sign, sister?"
Xu Shengli, "I was born in the year of the pig, and your elder sister was born in the year of the rat."
"Not really, they fit in very well." Shen Guannan didn't understand this either.
He said, "When two people get along, their personalities should be considered, not just their zodiac signs."
Xu Shengli nodded, "That's true."
The conversation between the three of them was completely meaningless. Zhou Jianguo,
"Second brother-in-law, how long do you plan to return to the army?"
Shen Guannan: "I'll be back tomorrow."
Zhou Jianguo, "Why are you in such a hurry? When will you leave tomorrow?"
"I plan to leave this afternoon."
Zhou Jianguo, "Then tomorrow morning, let's have a meal together, brother-in-law. It's not easy for you to come here this time."
"I don't think you guys will be able to attend my wedding to Shuyi."
Shen Guannan, "Go ask your second sister if she has any plans for tomorrow."
Just then Lin Shuyi came over, and Zhou Jianguo asked, "Where is Shuyi's second sister?"
Lin Shuyi's heart skipped a beat. "She's in the kitchen. What's wrong?"
Zhou Jianguo, "Call my second sister, something's going on."
Lin Shuyi, "What's the matter?"
Zhou Jianguo, "I want to treat my second sister and her husband to a meal. They are leaving tomorrow and I don't know when they will come back."
Lin Shuyi breathed a sigh of relief, "Oh, okay."
Lin Shuyi went to the kitchen and told Lin Shuyin. Lin Shuyin said, "Not tomorrow. If you want to eat, eat tonight. I need to sleep and get enough rest tomorrow. I have to take the train in the afternoon."
Zhou Jianguo has really mastered the social skills this time, worthy of being the factory director's son.
