As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of the three people present changed, except Guan Zhiman, who had a smile on her face, as if she didn't realize what she had said at all.
Xu Jiaojiao quickly returned the candy in her hand: "Lawyer Guan, this is for you. My husband bought a lot of them for me." She deliberately emphasized this sentence.
His eyes were evasive. What the hell was going on? All kinds of bad things happened to him. Although Lawyer Guan was beautiful, this was the 1970s. If he had a few more relationships, he might be charged with hooliganism.
She didn't want to be shot.
"Jiaojiao is getting married."
"It's almost done. The wedding dress has been ordered and my family is choosing a date." Xu Yan replied.
Guan Zhiman said "Oh" with understanding, and looked at the girl with a shallow smile: "Nothing is certain. It can't be counted if we haven't got the marriage certificate yet."
He looked at Jiaojiao's snow-white neck, which looked so fragile, as if it would break if he bent it lightly. He stretched out his hand to look at it vaguely, and could hold it with one hand.
After doing this, he deliberately looked at Xu Bai again, his gloomy eyes carrying an inexplicable emotion.
Xu Jiaojiao was frightened by his look, but fortunately Xu Bai took Guan Zhiman out in time, and she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Pulling her brother's sleeve, she said, "Brother, can we see Hongyan today?"
"I'm afraid it's not possible today, but we have to go find Hongyan's parents first. She gave me the address, so it's better to meet them." Xu Yan coaxed softly.
Guan Zhiman was reminiscing about the girl's appearance in her eyes. She turned her head and took a look. She found that her cheeks were rosy and she was so beautiful. She looked exactly like her ideal type.
"Xu Bai, your sister is so pretty, why didn't you bring her out earlier?"
Xu Bai stuffed the candy into the man's arms, straightened his gown, and looked at him coldly: "Is this interesting?"
The two of them were standing in the corner outside, blocked by a big tree, and they could not be seen unless you looked carefully.
Guan Zhiman's smile turned cold, and she patted Xu Bai's cheek with her slender hand, as if she was treating some small animal: "Are you angry? Didn't you ask me to find a girl?"
"That's my sister, please pay attention."
Xu Bai stepped back and tried to put some distance between them, but the man grabbed his waist with one hand and pressed him against the wall. Guan Zhiman's name and appearance were feminine, but her height was very oppressive.
He lowered his head and approached, speaking in a low and hoarse voice: "It's okay if I don't mess with that girl, and you move back to the dormitory."
Xu Bai tried hard to break free from this man's restraints, but Guan Zhiman was on the school basketball team in high school. His daily physical training and his background as a soldier at home were like hitting a rock with an egg.
After struggling for a long time, she brought a thin layer of red to her face, making her look as attractive as an actor taking off his costume.
The tone was filled with anger: "Let go, if you keep touching me like this I won't talk to you anymore in the future."
Guan Zhiman knew that this person was really angry, with a relaxed smile on her face, she raised her hands and said, "Xu Bai, don't be angry, who told you to play with Chen Er every day."
"Third brother, what are you doing?" Xu Jiaojiao said in a surprised tone.
Looking at Guan Zhiman putting her big hands on her brother's waist, her delicate brows frowned. As a person from the future, she couldn't help but think in an unusual direction, but now she could only pretend to be a little white rabbit.
Xu Jiaojiao's leather shoes made a clattering sound on the bluestone slabs. She forcefully intervened in the distance between the two of them and said in a sharp tone, "Lawyer Guan, let my brother go."
...........
It was already late on the way back, and Xu Yan and Xu Jiaojiao decided to visit Hong Yan's parents again tomorrow. He looked at his overly quiet brother and took the opportunity to ask some questions.
"Brother, what's going on between Third Brother and Lawyer Guan?"
"Oh, they were sworn enemies in high school. Guan Zhiman had always disliked the third brother and often made trouble for him. As time went by, the two gradually became familiar with each other."
"Why do I feel that Lawyer Guan likes Third Brother very much?" Xu Jiaojiao murmured, her mind full of Guan Zhiman's last look, that look full of possessiveness yet determination, it was really too outrageous.
"Look, Azhi is here to pick you up." Xu Yan successfully diverted his sister's attention.
Xu Jiaojiao saw Xie Zhi standing next to the notice board. Today he was rarely wearing a blue work suit, which was issued to teachers in the village. The style was very ordinary, very similar to the work suits of civil engineering colleges in later generations.
But Xu Jiaojiao thought that the clothes looked so good on Xie Zhi. She smiled and waved, and she could clearly see the smile on his face.
As soon as the car stopped, she couldn't wait to rush down and hugged Xie Zhi tightly. Her snow-white face was raised, and tears even welled up in her eyes: "Hubby, I miss you so much."
"You don't even know I haven't seen you for a whole day. I was so sad that I couldn't even finish my lunch."
Xie Zhi looked at the girl's aggrieved expression, and his heart felt as sweet as if he had eaten honey. His nose absorbed the fragrance from the girl's neck: "Jiaojiao, I miss you too."
"Ahem." Xu Yan reminded deliberately, and then rushed home with the things in his hands without looking back, shaking his head and sighing. It was really sad that a sister forgot her brother just because she had a husband.
The two of them walked home hand in hand under the faint starlight. They had already had dinner. Xu Jiaojiao shook the bracelet: "Is it beautiful? Third brother bought it for me."
"It looks good." The cold silver chain made the girl's wrist look even more slender.
Xie Zhi's eyes were filled with sticky possessiveness, and he could hardly control himself from giving her a light kiss.
"Jiaojiao, I want you."
Xu Jiaojiao put her arms around Xie Zhi's neck, stood on tiptoes, looked up at his sharp chin, and kissed him: "You look so good, honey, me too."
At this moment, the two of them turned into the most primitive matches, gently approaching each other for a moment, rubbing together, sparks ignited between them, and Xie Zhi also saw the most beautiful flower in his life.
............
The alarm clock beside the bed rang, and his slightly red hand turned it off first.
Xu Jiaojiao hugged the quilt and looked at the time with sleepy eyes. It was six o'clock: "Husband, aren't you going to school?"
In the past, Xie Zhi would have left long ago. The children in the village got up early and went to school early so that they could go home early to help during the busy farming season. Some even took holidays to help.
Xie Zhi gently but firmly pulled the girl out of the quilt: "The fields have been busy with harvesting these days, and the children have to go back to help. The school is simply closed for the holidays. Let's go to the county together today."
"OK."
"Jiaojiao, do you want to go to college?" Xie Zhi suddenly asked.
Xu Jiaojiao instantly perked up. The college entrance examination was about to resume. Her eyes lit up: "Husband, you have to study hard and become the first college student in our family."
"Do you want to go? My father wrote to me last time and said that the college entrance examination will be resumed soon. Can we take the exam together and study together?"
"Of course, but you have to teach me."
Although Xu Jiaojiao's life skills and work experience are not very smooth, she is a good student. She can even study in a double first-class university in a province with a high number of college entrance examination candidates. She is really capable.
Moreover, as someone who traveled through time and space in a book, I understand very well the value of this generation of college students. It is definitely a great thing to be able to go to college.
When Xie Zhi heard the girl say yes, he finally felt relieved after being worried for several days. Although he and Jiaojiao were going to get married soon, she was still worried.
He was even more worried that Jiaojiao would run away with someone else when he went to college. She was so pretty and likable, and there were countless men who secretly coveted her.
After thinking it over, Xie Zhi decided that it would be better to keep her by his side. It would be best to hang a sign on Xu Jiaojiao that said Xie Zhi's wife.
