Shen Zixi's age when she got married was neither too early nor too late. Unlike many children in the Beijing compound, Shen Zixi did not choose to study abroad. She felt that many teachers and professors in the school were top students who had returned from studying abroad. She could fully learn the knowledge she could learn studying abroad on campus. The only difference was the specific background environment and cultural customs.
But she doesn't care about these. You can say she is afraid or looks down on them. Take the people around her as an example. Those seniors who went to study abroad said everything well before they went, that they would go to learn new culture and come back to build the motherland and serve the country, but what happened in the end?
What is the reality? Only one or two out of ten people return, while eight or nine out of ten stay abroad. For this reason, Shen Zixi doesn't want to go abroad. It is said that the colorful world is fascinating. Although she has confidence in her resistance, what if?
Four years in college and two years as a graduate student, a total of six years, Shen Zixi had also had romantic feelings, and had what she thought was a tacit agreement with the boy she liked, but perhaps happiness is always short-lived, and everyone's choices are different, and naturally there are more things to consider as they grow up, so until graduation, Shen Zixi could be said to have never had a serious relationship.
So when her family suggested introducing her to a blind date, she accepted it without any psychological burden.
The other party was a pilot who was a few years older than her. He had served in the army. Later, in order to promote the development of civil aviation, the country arranged a group of excellent pilots from the army to transfer to various aviation crews. Because many of the elders in her family were born in military camps, Shen Zixi had a beautiful filter for soldiers since she was a child.
The first time Shen Zixi and Zhou Yan met was on a plane. At that time, she had just joined the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and was still an intern who was little known. She was busy learning from her seniors every day.
Of course, the department was also very good to this group of interns, and gave them many internship opportunities as soon as they joined. That time, she and her colleagues were taken by the team leader to Shanghai to attend a diplomatic conference and serve as interpreters.
Everyone was very nervous about going to the battlefield for the first time. Although the team leader comforted them, they could not control the physiological tension.
It was in this situation that we encountered turbulence during the flight. You have to know that our country is still in the development stage in the field of civil aviation. Air tickets are very expensive. Only those who can afford to take a plane are wealthy and have a certain social status. It was the first time we encountered this situation. When the plane was shaking, everyone was in chaos. Many people were angry at first, and then desperate within two minutes. They acted as if they didn't hear anything even though the flight attendant shouted at the top of her lungs.
Shen Zixi and the others were naturally nervous, but in the sky, she also knew clearly that at this moment, fate was completely in her hands. She completely trusted the captain to control the plane, but she also made a worst-case scenario plan in her heart. . .
It was not until five minutes later that the captain's voice came from the cabin broadcast. Everyone quieted down and found that the plane had returned to normal flight status. After escaping death, the people who had just been shouting and yelling in anger felt a little embarrassed. Facing the smiling faces and comforting voices of the flight attendants, there were also sounds of apology.
Shen Zixi calmed down. The only voice in his ears was the voice on the radio. The captain was explaining the generation of air currents and what passengers should do if they encountered such a situation during the flight. It was the first time he encountered such a serious captain. Shen Zixi thought to himself that this guy was quite nice.
When they got off the plane, because there were problems during the flight, the captain and the flight attendants said goodbye to them at the door. It was their first meeting. Shen Zixi recognized Zhou Yan through the ID card, but Zhou Yan didn't know who Shen Zixi was.
The blind date was scheduled for lunch on the weekend. When Shen Zixi heard her grandfather say that the blind date's name was Zhou Yan, her mind couldn't help but diverge. Could it be the serious captain she had met? They were all pilots. It wouldn't be such a coincidence that there were two people named Zhou Yan in the Beijing Airlines flight crew.
The meeting place was a restaurant. It was their first blind date after all, so Shen Zixi dressed herself up beautifully, with newly curled hair and delicate but not exaggerated makeup. Zhou Yan arrived early, and as soon as Shen Zixi sat down, the waiter brought her warm water in time.
"I don't know what you like to eat, so I didn't order anything. Here's the menu. Let's talk while we eat." Zhou Yan came here right after waking up and washing up after last night's flight. He was very hungry, but out of politeness he didn't eat first. However, in Shen Zixi's opinion, this person's voice sounded better than on the radio.
Both of them were people with excellent family and school education. The two of them chatted happily. Zhou Yan told many stories about his training in the army. When he heard him say that he vomited after spinning in circles for the first time, the first time he sat in the passenger seat in the sky, and the first time he flew a plane independently, Shen Zixi felt like he was participating in his life after listening to his description.
We got along well and made a good impression on each other on our first meeting. This was the first step to a successful blind date. From that day on, the two of us spent almost all our free time together, walking on the street, visiting parks, taking photos at the Forbidden City, and tasting authentic food at snack bars and restaurants.
Shen Zixi was very happy.
She felt that the word "matched" was very appropriate to describe her and Zhou Yan. Although they had different professions and hobbies, none of these prevented two hearts that wanted to be close to each other from getting closer.
They had been in love for nearly a year, and during this year, Shen Zixi's condition was visibly better. Several interns in the same group were overwhelmed by the assessment, but she was the only one who was radiant and smiling every day. Experienced seniors joked that she was satisfied with love and that it was the nourishing power of love.
She recited these words to Zhou Yan and laughed so hard that she couldn't stop. Zhou Yan agreed with her. On the day when Shen Zixi thought something was about to happen, a man proposed to her, and the scene she had expected naturally did not happen.
A bit disappointed what happened.
Shen Zixi's wedding was grand, no less than that of her two aunts back then. As the first of the younger generation in the family to get married, both the elders and the younger brothers and sisters paid special attention to it.
Her parents are talented, her aunt and uncle are rich, and luckily the Zhou family is also a scholarly family with a good financial background, otherwise her dowry alone would be enough to shock everyone.
The children of the Shen family have been in charge of their own New Year's money since they were ten years old. Several boys did not leave any room for themselves and presented a considerable fortune on the day of their sister's wedding, including gold bars, jewelry, and cash. The wealth accumulated by these boys since childhood made Zhou Yan, the eldest brother-in-law, amazed.
The young men had a simple idea: the eldest sister must be a confident and happy person in this world.
