Chapter 320: Picking up people at the train station
The military region was in turmoil over the selection of the chief, so Ye Rou had more time to rest.
Zhou Liang and Zhou Nian's train arrived today, and Ye Rou and the others were going to pick them up, so they started preparing early.
She wore a thin camel-colored coat over a knee-length white gauze skirt, and her black hair was tied into a single fishbone braid, hanging loosely on her chest.
Wearing camel-colored calf-wrapped boots and a sweet and cool outfit, she received a lot of praise as soon as she appeared.
Ye Rou lazily fiddled with the puzzle on the stone table and glanced at the door again.
"Why haven't they come yet?"
She was bored waiting and kept hooking Jiang Chen's calf.
There were black marks all over the pants. Jiang Chen grabbed Ye Rou's calf and told her to be quiet.
"It's so boring!" Ye Rou couldn't struggle free and complained casually.
Jiang Chen clamped her legs and continued to fiddle with the puzzle that Ye Rou had messed up.
Zhou Yuqing made this set of puzzles when he was free.
The puzzle model made in their yard is very similar to Lego in later generations. Each small wooden block is polished extremely finely and even painted.
There are also models of Xiao Huihui and the fat frog that Mr. Zhou raised.
Jiang Chen particularly liked Ye Rou's model, which was the size of a palm and extremely finely crafted, with movable hands and feet, making it look like Ye Rou turned into a little person.
He tried to steal it several times but failed.
Ye Rou lay on the stone table with her arms as a pillow, her fox eyes following Jiang Chen's movements.
Jiang Chen comforted her, "Wang Honghong likes Zhou Nian. She must dress up after not seeing him for so long."
"!" Ye Rou's fox eyes suddenly widened, looking particularly confused.
"Wang Honghong likes Zhou Nian?"
Seeing her big reaction, Jiang Chen asked, "You don't know?"
"I don't know." Ye Rou tried to find some clues in her memory, but it was really limited.
Wang Honghong is arrogant in her actions and dresses ostentatiously, but when it comes to liking someone, she is so low-key that no one notices.
Ye Rou recalled Zhou Nian's attitude towards Wang Honghong. It seemed that they were just Zhou Liang's friends, and he never mentioned Wang Honghong otherwise.
“…” It’s really a complete secret love.
It’s so dark that even the people involved don’t know about it.
"Sister-in-law, we are here." Meng Guan's voice rang out.
Ye Rou looked over and saw Meng Guan making a tug-of-war gesture at the door, as if he was pulling something.
"You're a grown man, why are you being so shy?"
Meng Guan tried hard to pull Wang Honghong who refused to show up.
Ye Rou saw the two of them performing a tug-of-war at the door. In the end, Meng Guan won and took advantage of Wang Honghong's unpreparedness to pull her away.
Wang Honghong staggered forward two steps, her hands tightly covering her hat, refusing to let go.
Ye Rou looked at Wang Honghong's outfit.
A complete white suit, paired with a black tie and leather shoes, is quite handsome, but the yellow cowboy hat on his head ruins the overall atmosphere and is very inappropriate.
Ye Rou suggested: "Actually, you don't need to wear a hat."
Wang Honghong's face turned red in an instant. She covered her hat with her hands and lowered her head.
It was the first time that Ye Rou saw Wang Honghong in such an embarrassed state.
She asked blankly, "What's wrong?"
Meng Guan couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Sister-in-law, you don't know, this idiot got a really stupid haircut, hahahaha——"
"Don't say that!" Wang Honghong was so upset by the laughter that she chased after Meng Guan to cover his mouth.
Meng Guan took advantage of his off guard and suddenly raised his hand to take off his hat.
Seeing Wang Honghong's hairstyle clearly, Ye Rou: "..."
Jiang Chen looked away in disgust.
"Meng Guan, I will kill you sooner or later!" Wang Honghong collapsed and squatted down, covering her head.
Meng Guan covered his stomach which hurt from laughing and consoled him: "Your hair won't grow back for a while, and it will be exposed sooner or later."
Wang Honghong has a fair face and delicate features, which suits him well for the flower boy style. His previous red and long hair was outrageous but not ugly. However, this hairstyle is really hard to praise.
The temples are shaved, the neatly cut bangs cover the eyebrows, the hair on the sides is shaved flat and sticks tightly to the head. From a distance, it looks like a standard long-haired person.
Ye Rou touched her chin.
This hairstyle looks strangely familiar.
Ye Rou thought about it again and again, and finally figured it out.
In the previous life, the young nurses in their department complained about the hairstyle of the male protagonist in the comics, which seemed to be called "cow licking head".
It also looks like a little man with a few bangs drawn on his thumb.
Meng Guan almost collapsed from laughing: "No, I can't look at him, I can't help laughing when I look at him."
Wang Honghong pleaded for help, "Brother Jiang, look at Meng Guan, he's going too far!"
Jiang Chen said he couldn't bear to watch it and was too lazy to pay attention to the two of them.
Ye Rou tried to comfort him, "It's not that bad actually. Looking at it from the front... well, it's... it's not bad."
Wang Honghong was not comforted and was visibly even sadder.
He thought of Zhou Nianlai and wanted to surprise her, so he got a haircut on a whim. After seeing the result, Wang Honghong asked tearfully, "Uncle, how many years have you been cutting hair?"
The uncle laughed and said, "It's been a long time. It's been six years since I started cutting hair for the people in the Second Prison."
Wang Honghong collapsed: "Uncle, you have ruined my happiness for the rest of my life."
It vividly illustrates that no one can walk out of a barber shop with a smile.
Seeing Wang Honghong collapse, Jiang Chen remained unmoved, and Meng Guan added insult to injury.
Ye Rou couldn't bear it and said, "How about I fix it for you?"
Wang Honghong's eyes lit up instantly.
"Sister-in-law, whether I can be happy in the second half of my life depends entirely on you."
Ye Rou found a pair of scissors and stood in front of Wang Honghong, arms raised, expression serious: "Are you ready?"
Wang Honghong put on her raincoat, swallowed her saliva, and said with a fierce determination: "Come on!"
There was no mirror in front of him, and he could only hear the sound of scissors clicking above his head.
Very smooth and confident cut.
It should be fine...right?
…
Ye Rou: "Okay!"
Wang Honghong's heart was pounding with nervousness, and she turned to look at Meng Guan who was standing beside her.
"How's it going?"
Meng Guan touched his chin and said from the bottom of his heart: "Wang Honghong, you really should kowtow to your sister-in-law."
Wang Honghong couldn't wait and rushed into the house wearing a raincoat to look in the mirror.
After a while, earth-shaking screams were heard in the house.
——
The train station was crowded, and even though Zhou Nian was protected by his brother, he was still staggering due to the squeeze.
"Brother Jiang, they are over there!"
Zhou Liang, who was tall, saw the people first and rushed over excitedly with his sister.
Zhou Nian landed on the ground and was pulled by his brother like a kite.
"Brother Jiang!" Zhou Liang waved excitedly, forgetting that Zhou Liang behind him rushed forward even more excitedly.
Zhou Nian was running so hard that she was dizzy. She was about to bump into the old lady in front of her, so she dodged in panic. She lost her balance and fell forward. At the moment, a hand grabbed her waist and hugged her.
Zhou Nian looked at the person who was holding her, and her pupils dilated instantly.
So handsome!
His slightly parted hair covered his forehead, his peach blossom eyes were full of affection, and the corners of his lips were curled up in a cool and handsome smile. The white suit made him look even more handsome, and he looked like the male protagonist in a movie.
Zhou Nian's face turned red like a tomato. He stood up awkwardly and whispered, "Thank you."
"You're welcome, Nian Nian." The man said in a joking voice.
Zhou Nian looked up blankly: "How do you know my name?"
Wang Honghong stared at Zhou Nian's blushing cheeks, and in his heart he kowtowed to his sister-in-law who saved his life. He struck a cool pose, intending to act cool again so that Zhou Nian would remember him deeply.
A large hand slapped him on the back.
"puff!"
Wang Honghong's breath was suddenly released, and his body fell forward, and all his handsomeness disappeared.
The culprit was completely unaware and said carelessly, "Honghong, I haven't seen you for so long, you look handsome again."
Wang Honghong looked at Zhou Nian's back as he ran towards Ye Rou, gritted her teeth and said, "It's been a long time!"
He stared at Zhou Liang, dumbfounded.
"What's going on, kid?"
