Try tailor-made (repair)
"You don't mind, right?" Huo Chengfeng asked again stubbornly.
"You were doing business with someone and you thought of me when you borrowed money. You didn't get angry in the locker room that day, right?"
"I think we can try again." He looked at her seriously, "If it doesn't work out, I won't bother you anymore, really!" he promised.
Shi Mingzhu was eating duck meat but she couldn't eat anymore and it was boring. What Huo Chengfeng said made her think.
In the end she discovered that what Huo Chengfeng said was true.
“…”
"Why must it be me?" Shi Mingzhu asked.
"Do you remember the summer of your first year in junior high school? It was a Thursday, and you knocked someone down in the corridor, and you ran away without even looking at him."
Shi Mingzhu's expression was indescribable. She shook her head and said, "I don't remember. Do you mean to say that the person who was knocked down was you?"
Huo Chengfeng was not disappointed with her reaction. It was just an ordinary afternoon. There are many such afternoons in a person's life. They are all the same and ordinary. It is normal that he could not remember them.
"It was me. Your hair was short like a student's at that time, but you braided it and it looked really good. You knocked my water cup over and spilled it. I wanted to ask if your clothes were wet, but when I looked up you had already run away." Huo Chengfeng nodded.
Shi Mingzhu chewed the duck meat in her mouth again and again and finally swallowed it. She looked at Huo Chengfeng's face, "Did you fall in love with me at first sight?" He even remembered her hairstyle that day so clearly.
Huo Chengfeng met her eyes and nodded, "I think so. I was so impressed by you the first time I saw you, so I kept paying attention to you. You had braided hair for a while, and I was curious at that time why you didn't keep your hair long since you liked braids."
Shi Mingzhu laughed dryly and said, "Do you know why I braid my hair?"
"You like it. I also think it's beautiful and has personality."
"No, because I have lice on my head. My teacher taught me to braid my hair. She said that this way the lice would not jump onto my classmates' heads."
Although Shi Mingzhu didn't remember whether she bumped into him, she knew why she braided her hair. For a long time, she had her hair braided. Whenever it grew longer, she would cut it short. After changing her hair several times, she finally got rid of lice on her head. I just didn't expect Huo Chengfeng to have such a misunderstanding.
And you pay attention to her and even fall in love with her just because of her lice-covered head?
“…”
Huo Chengfeng smiled. He didn't expect the truth to be like this.
"When did your lice get rid of? You had this hairstyle throughout your first year of junior high school and even the first semester of your second year," Huo Chengfeng asked.
"I seem to have the impression that it was fine in the second semester of junior high school. I even braided my hair in the second year of junior high school just because I wanted to be beautiful." Shi Mingzhu smiled.
She raised her eyebrows and asked him again, "If you knew I had lice all over my head, would you still like me?"
"I noticed you because of your impetuous and unique qualities. I paid attention to you for a long time and then fell in love with you because of your personal charm." Huo Chengfeng gave a not-so-good answer in a matter-of-fact manner. It seemed like he was trying to make up for it, but it also showed that his attitude was very sincere.
Shi Mingzhu said "oh", she was like a bystander, she was curious and at the same time, she felt a hidden joy. I always feel proud when I hear others praising me. She wiped her hands with a tissue and asked him casually, "Do you think I'm dirty?"
"You live with your uncle and aunt, and you have lice on your head. There are two reasons. One is that you have bad hygiene habits, but I know you like to clean, so this reason is ruled out," Huo Chengfeng analyzed, "But as far as I know, sleeping with wet hair for a long time may also cause lice. This situation may be that your uncle and aunt did not take good care of you and did not take care of you at all. Because you... don't have parents, they have the role of guardianship and discipline for you, so you have learned a lot of common sense from your uncle and aunt. The second reason is that it was transmitted from others. Someone in your uncle and aunt's family has lice on their heads."
“Dad,” Yangyang pulled on his father’s sleeve, “shit!”
Huo Chengfeng looked at Yangyang helplessly. This brat always had something to do at critical moments, affecting his relationship with Shi Mingzhu. Seeing his bulging belly, Huo Chengfeng touched it. He was too full. "Want to poop?"
Yangyang nodded, "Yeah!"
“…”
Huo Chengfeng picked up Yangyang, said something to Shi Mingzhu, and took Yangyang to the toilet.
When Yangyang came back from the toilet, Shi Mingzhu had also finished eating.
The two took Yangyang to Ahua's duck farm. There were more ducks than citrus trees. There were only three citrus trees, and the foot of the trees was full of duck manure.
Yangyang looked at the ducks all over the field and screamed excitedly. As soon as he called, the ducks quacked and scattered, and he screamed excitedly when he saw them.
"Eat!" Yangyang pointed at the oranges on the tree and asked his father to take him to pick them.
Citrus fruits were hanging everywhere, within reach. Huo Chengfeng put him on his shoulder and let him pick them himself.
Yangyang reached out and picked an orange, then started to make a fuss about going to the fields.
Huo Chengfeng put him down. Although the duck farm was on a hillside, it was on flat ground and there was no danger, so he felt relieved.
"Ahhhhhhh" Yangyang stood on the ground with both feet, screamed, and ran to chase the duck.
"So I don't think you are dirty." Huo Chengfeng said suddenly.
"If I knew you had lice then, I would have taken you to the hospital. Although we were in the same class at that time, we didn't communicate much. But I would have secretly paid attention to how to get rid of lice, and then revealed the method to you, so that you could get rid of the lice on your head quickly."
Huo Chengfeng's personality is such that he would do such a thing.
"In the eyes of many people, you are not dirty. Lice are something that many people will have. If you have them, it will be gone. At that time, many people probably thought you were the same as them because everyone had them."
"Everyone focuses on different things. Some people will focus on your hair first and think you are dirty, just like people who think you are dirty because you have lice. Some people will focus on your personality first and think you have a strong personality, just like me. There must be others who will have this impression of you and will remember you for a long time."
Huo Chengfeng knew that someone must have said something like "You have lice and you are dirty" to her before, so she still remembers it now.
Shi Mingzhu turned her head to look at Huo Chengfeng and said, "Oh!" She looked at her son who was chasing ducks not far away and said faintly, "The one who said I was dirty was my aunt. She thought I must have lice because I didn't pay attention to hygiene. I don't know if it was because of my lack of hygiene. I washed my hair regularly, but I still got lice."
"However, although she said these words, she still helped me find a way to get rid of the lice. But her patience could not last for more than a few days. My uncle did not care about these things. All he asked of me was that I could eat and stay alive." In fact, both my uncle and aunt thought so, so Shi Mingzhu grew up like a small wild grass that occasionally felt the sweet rain.
I don't bear any grudge against my aunt. My aunt isn't very good, but she isn't bad either.
Huo Chengfeng looked at her profile. Although Shi Mingzhu downplayed it, it was her real experience. He felt sad when he heard it. "Can I hug you?"
Shi Mingzhu glanced at him, "Do you think it's possible?"
"And you think I'm sad?"
"I'm not sad anymore. Who told you to bring up my lice? I was just telling you a story."
When the emotional Huo Chengfeng meets the rational Shi Mingzhu, Huo Chengfeng is defeated.
Huo Chengfeng was very self-aware. "It's impossible that you don't want to." He smiled, feeling somewhat smug, as if he had won a victory despite a defeat. He really liked Shi Mingzhu's desire to share with him at this moment. "Then you can tell me more stories in the future."
Yangyang's cheerful voice was in my ears, and the two of them were chatting peacefully like old friends, which had never happened even before their divorce.
"Then why did you choose me?" Huo Chengfeng asked her.
Shi Mingzhu's reason was also very direct, "You are rich and have status, you can also give me the money I need, and you can stay away from my hometown. I urgently needed to leave my hometown at that time, so you are a very suitable candidate for marriage."
"Okay." Huo Chengfeng felt as if his heart was stabbed again. It was numb, not painful but a bit addictive.
Huo Chengfeng asked her again, "If I hadn't shown up at that time, would you have married someone else?"
Shi Mingzhu thought about it for a while and smiled, "It should be, it depends on the situation."
"Most people in your hometown don't meet your requirements." Huo Chengfeng said. I feel a little happy, as if he was tailor-made for Shi Mingzhu. Although he was created by the author, he has self-awareness, so he knows that everything is his own will.
really. Shi Mingzhu nodded and stopped talking.
"Although we live in a book, when I went to your junior high school alma mater to look for you, it was completely out of my own heart. Even my love for you was not controlled by the book or the plot." Huo Chengfeng said, "No matter where I am or what I have become, I will come back to find you."
The two novels he had read in his dream appeared in Huo Chengfeng's mind, and he firmly believed that they were the most suitable for each other.
Shi Mingzhu nodded, unable to respond to his words. She didn't have such deep feelings for Huo Chengfeng, but she did have feelings for him, so she chose to tell the truth.
"Then what are your feelings for me? You can tell me the truth about this life and the last life. I can accept it all." He could accept divorce. There was nothing he couldn't accept. Huo Chengfeng sighed and asked her like a friend.
"It's the kind of relationship that people get married for through blind dating. You're pretty and pleasing to the eye, and you're capable and have room for improvement. Gradually, I've come to accept you. After having Yangyang, I feel that our connection has deepened. I don't have strong feelings for you, it's more of a long-term relationship."
Shi Mingzhu knew very well the impulsive feeling of liking someone very much. She said very frankly, "After you died in my previous life, there was a man who pursued me. He was very good to me and Yangyang. I liked him very much, but I still didn't agree to be with him because I felt insecure and felt that he would die at any time like you. Because you and I are afraid of the military profession, so you are the most guilty."
Shi Mingzhu frowned and complained. At this moment, she treated Huo Chengfeng as a friend and really wanted to complain about the past.
"Now that you've finished reading the novel, do you know what the ending is between him and me?" Shi Mingzhu looked at him expectantly. She really wanted to know the answer. She looked up at the sky. "I wonder if I will meet him again?"
"Do you want to meet him again in this life?" Huo Chengfeng curled his lips and smiled.
“I still think about it.”
"Then we can try again."
"Who wants to try with you..." Shi Mingzhu was stunned when she saw the bigger smile on Huo Chengfeng's face, and she frowned.
