After playing ball with Qin Zhiheng, Gu Wei and Qin Zhiheng went to Nanwan for barbecue.
The two intended to befriend each other, and with the added influence of alcohol, they felt their relationship grew even closer as they drank.
When Gu Wei returned to the courtyard house, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening.
After parking his car, he went to the house where Gu Jianguo and the others lived.
Gu Jianguo and Li Guizhi were still awake, watching TV dramas.
Upon seeing Gu Wei return, the two focused their attention on him.
"You must have drunk quite a bit, your face is all red."
"Would you like some honey water?"
"I'm not drinking, you guys do your thing."
"That works."
Gu Jianguo sat back down.
Gu Wei glanced at the TV and saw that it was showing episode 24 of "Stories from the Editorial Department".
Ge You, playing Li Dongbao, is giving Zhao Yonggang, played by Zhang Guoli, a philosophical life lesson.
This TV series, starring Ge You, Hou Yaohua, and Zhang Tong, and co-directed by Zhao Baogang and Jin Yan, with Ma Weidu, Wang Shuo, and Feng Xiaogang as screenwriters, is considered the first TV series comedy in China.
It tells the story of the interactions and clashes between six editors with different personalities, all of whom are kind, understanding and helpful, in the editorial department of a magazine called "Human Guide," and depicts the various life stories that arise after they come into contact with society.
In fact, the broadcast was very controversial, especially among older viewers who did not accept Wang Shuo's style of language and humor, feeling that it did not resemble an editorial department and that he just talked nonsense all day long.
However, young and middle-aged viewers began to talk about it in the streets and alleys, and even published a collection of dialogues, vying to imitate the characters' lines in the play.
Although Gu Wei did not read the entire book, he knew some of the very profound lines, which were still regarded as golden quotes decades later.
At this moment, Gu Hongjie came out from next door, holding a jumbled cassette tape in his hand.
What happened to the cassette tape?
"I was trying to compare the playback quality of my learning machine with an old-fashioned tape recorder, but it ended up messing things up."
Gu Wei chuckled and casually asked, "School starts tomorrow, how's packing going?"
Gu Hongjie finished his year-long military training in another city and was finally able to enter the university campus to study. He said excitedly, "Everything's all set up... Do you want to take me there tomorrow?"
Seeing Gu Hongjie's earnest little eyes, how could Gu Wei possibly refuse?
He said with a smile, "Okay, I'll also take a look around Yenching University."
Although the facilities and environment look somewhat dilapidated from a future perspective, it was still one of the top universities at that time, and it was the university that Gu Wei failed to get into.
Gu Hongjie was overjoyed.
Despite being nineteen years old and trying to appear mature and profound in public, he still readily reveals his childlike side when facing Gu Wei, showing no awareness of his role as an elder.
Gu Jianguo was one of only two people in the family who knew the true nature of their relationship.
In the past, I would definitely have complained, but now I just shake my head and laugh helplessly.
Li Guizhi glanced at her husband with surprise, feeling that he had changed quite a bit in the past year.
On second thought, perhaps it's just that I'm getting older and more mature, so I didn't pay too much attention to it.
.
Meanwhile, Qin Zhiheng returned home.
His wife was also sitting on the sofa in the living room watching TV.
When I saw him come back, I quickly put down my knitting needles and knitting and went over to get him slippers.
As Qin Zhiheng changed his shoes, he asked in a low voice, "Is the child asleep?"
"I went to bed early. Why are you only getting back now?"
His wife's name was Hong Ya Hui. She was petite and spoke softly, unlike a typical Beijing girl. Instead, she seemed more like someone from the Jiangnan water towns.
Qin Zhiheng frowned and said, "Didn't I tell you? She's with that guy who's good at stock trading..."
Hong Ya Hui said softly, "I know, I just didn't expect you two to chat so late. Shall I get you something to sober you up?"
Qin Zhiheng waved his hand, "No need."
Then he walked to the other side of the single sofa, sat down, relaxed, tilted his head back, and let out a long sigh.
By the way, the best app for reading aloud and listening to books right now is the .huanyuanapp app (install the latest version).
Hong Ya-hui immediately went over and massaged his head. Out of curiosity, she couldn't help but ask, "What did you two talk about?"
Qin Zhiheng closed his eyes comfortably. "We can talk about anything. You wouldn't understand if I said too much. Anyway, this person is definitely a talent and should not be underestimated."
Hong Ya Hui pursed her lips unhappily. "I do know a lot, but you have to give me the opportunity to learn and improve. How about we invite him over for a visit sometime?"
We'll see.
After several months of getting to know Gu Wei, Qin Zhiheng could sense that Gu Wei was a man who disliked showing off and kept a distance from others, making him difficult to approach easily. He could only proceed gradually.
A glint flashed in Hong Yahui's eyes. "Alright. By the way, I mentioned the few young men I had selected to Manman, but she flatly refused, saying she wasn't in a hurry to find a partner and that we shouldn't bother."
Qin Zhiheng opened his eyes. "This little girl... I'll talk to her about it when I have time."
Hong Yahui nodded, "Okay, you should try to persuade them. When they were studying abroad, they didn't have to look for a partner. But now that they're back in China and have stable jobs, how can they not look for a partner? If they keep putting it off, they'll really become old maids, and their parents will be worried too."
Suddenly, the sound of a child whimpering came from the bedroom, and Hong Ya Hui quickly went in.
Qin Zhiheng also stood up.
However, he only glanced inside from the doorway before going to the study.
He used the key to open the bottom drawer, took out a black-covered diary, gently stroked the delicate handwriting on the title page, and sighed softly.
