"Wow, he's really handsome and dashing!"
"Of course! I'm a member of the 'looks-matter' club, how could the person I like be anything less than good-looking?" Zhou Wenyi said with a smug look.
"Look how pleased you are with yourself, you've lost all sense of direction."
Zhou's mother looked at the photos repeatedly for a long time.
Although photos and real people may differ.
Perhaps some people are not photogenic.
But we can also see a lot from this group photo.
In this materialistic age, many people are overwhelmed by various pressures, becoming impatient, materialistic, and rather pessimistic.
The young man's eyes, however, were different; they were firm and bright.
Indeed, as his daughter said, he is a clean and upright person.
Zhou Wenyi chuckled, snuggling close to her mother, and couldn't help but ask again, "Does my dad know? What's his opinion?"
Zhou's mother hesitated for a moment, "You know what kind of person your father is. Although he doesn't quite agree and wants you to find someone of equal social standing, he was somewhat moved when I gave him examples of other people. So, you two should get along well for now. We'll talk about the future later."
Zhou Wenyi felt a little disappointed.
But I also understand that my father's thinking is perfectly reasonable.
After all, the importance of marrying someone of equal social standing has been emphasized since ancient times.
The fact that my father hasn't expressed strong opposition yet is already quite reasonable.
Furthermore, she and Gu Wei had reached a consensus at the beginning of their relationship.
I only date, and I don't get married easily.
"Okay, we'll definitely get along well. Mom, I love you so much."
"You little rascal. Now you're using me, and you're sweeter than anyone else."
Zhou's mother laughed and scolded, but felt incredibly warm inside.
...
Gu Wei only stayed in Antai for one day before boarding a train to the capital.
It's much closer to the capital from here than from the provincial capital.
However, since these were all green-skinned trains at the time, they were extremely slow and stopped at small stations, which was definitely not comparable to the speed of the high-speed trains and bullet trains decades later.
Along the way, Gu Wei not only enjoyed the scenery but also chatted with several male passengers who frequently traveled for work, discussing all sorts of things.
Therefore, I gained a lot more knowledge and experience.
The things you learn through research often differ significantly from what others tell you.
Moreover, the more fantastical and unbelievable something is, the more likely it is to be true.
As the train slowly pulled into Beijing Railway Station.
When Gu Wei got off the bus with the crowd, it was already past 9 a.m.
Having been in this time and space for so long, this was the first time Gu Wei had set foot in the capital city, and his excitement was beyond words.
The capital city in the 1980s was very different from what he had imagined.
What you see are very clean streets and people dressed in simple, plain clothes.
On the not-so-wide road, there are far more buses, cars, and motorcycles than in other places.
However, the majority of people were still riding bicycles.
After all, bicycles were the main mode of transportation in the 1980s.
After that, Gu Wei did not immediately go to find Hou Yongxian and the others at the address.
Instead, he wandered alone through the streets and alleys of Beijing.
