There were not many people in the hot pot restaurant at noon today, with only four or five tables. As soon as Lin Xiaoyuan entered the door, she saw Su Qingmeng and his wife. They had not changed much after not seeing them for a few years.
She pulled Gu Shuyuan and the two children over and said, "Long time no see." The capital is very big, and it is rare to meet someone you knew before.
After both parties greeted each other, Su Qingmeng asked, "Is this your child?" The heroine in the original book gave birth to twins.
Lin Xiaoyuan is much more mature now. She is no longer the innocent village girl. She has fashionable curly hair, wears a long trench coat and jeans, and looks like an urban beauty.
"My son Gu Zhijin and my daughter Gu Zhiyu. Xiaojin and Xiaoyu, say hello to uncle and aunt."
The two children greeted people obediently: "Hello, uncle and aunt."
Su Qingmeng smiled and replied, "Hello to you too." She asked Lin Xiaoyuan, "How old are they?"
Lin Xiaoyuan: "Two years old. Have you been back to your hometown recently?" She hasn't been back to Songjiang Brigade for a long time. She went back once during the summer vacation of her sophomore year, and then she got pregnant and gave birth, and she never had time to go back.
Su Qingmeng shook her head, "We haven't been back for several years."
Lin Xiaoyuan was a little disappointed. The four of them talked for a few minutes and then went to sit at another table. They were not familiar with each other and did not talk much.
Su Qingmeng and the others finished their meal quickly, said goodbye, and went home.
Lin Xiaoyuan was lost in thought as she watched them go away. She and Lin Xiuyao were classmates. Although he was a grade higher than her, they often met at school.
Lin Xiuyao had always been good-looking, and many girls at school liked him. However, after a family tragedy, he became much quieter, usually only chatting and joking with his few friends. He ignored everyone else and was busy every day.
Lin Xiaoyuan didn't know what he was busy with. He would only appear in school during class time and was rarely seen at other times.
In fact, Lin Xiaoyuan knew that many girls of the same age in the village liked Lin Xiuyao, but he had no parents and had lived alone since middle school, so they had no chance to get close to him.
By the time he reached the age to get married, he had already become a scorekeeper. Many people came to propose marriage to him. After all, his family had three brick houses and he lived alone. His eldest brother was a soldier and would become an official after he retired.
Every time a matchmaker came to their house, he was rejected. The villagers said he had high standards, and her mother at home said she was picky, so she gave up the idea of ​​arranging a marriage for them. At that time, Lin Xiaoyuan breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't like the orphan Lin Xiuyao. Her own family was lively and she was spoiled by her relatives. She didn't want to marry into a family with only one person.
Later, she fell in love with Gu Shuyuan, and Lin Xiuyao fell in love with Su Zhiqing. After Su Qingmeng came, she was worried. After all, she was so beautiful and lived in the same Zhiqing camp with Gu Shuyuan. She was afraid that something might happen between the two of them.
She was quite surprised that Su Qingmeng would end up marrying Lin Xiuyao. With Su Qingmeng's appearance and character, she would have been well-suited to marrying him even in the county town, but she didn't expect him to end up marrying someone from the countryside.
At first, she didn't understand Su Qingmeng's choice at all, but now she realizes how wise she was. After marriage, she doesn't have to get along with her parents-in-law and sisters-in-law, and Lin Xiuyao even worked hard to get into Peking University with her.
They lived in love after marriage. She and Gu Shuyuan had a difficult time in the countryside because their parents disagreed and they had several quarrels. Every time she saw the two of them being so sweet together, she would be envious.
Gu Shuyuan saw her lost in thought and asked, "Xiaoyuan, what's wrong?" He picked up a piece of mutton for her with his chopsticks and said, "Eat it quickly. Don't you like mutton? If you don't eat it now, the two children will eat it all."
Lin Xiaoyuan came back to her senses and looked at her gentle lover and lovely child. She did not regret her choice.
Although her mother-in-law and sister-in-law always made things difficult for her at the beginning, and even though she worked hard to become a college student, her in-laws still looked down on her, their attitude changed after she gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl.
My sister-in-law is married and my father-in-law is busy with work. Now the family gets along well. Although the mother-in-law is still weird sometimes, she likes the twins very much. The twins like their mother the most. She feels much more comfortable at home.
Su Qingmeng didn't take the encounter with the male and female protagonists of the original book to heart. The days passed one by one. At the end of October, Lin Xiuyao said he wanted to resign.
He originally wanted to work until the end of the year, but recently changed his mind and decided to open the store before the New Year to catch the New Year's wave of popularity and gain popularity as quickly as possible.
Moreover, it gets dark early in winter and the public security is relatively poor. He is worried about Su Qingmeng going home alone after school at night.
Su Qingmeng: "Just think it through yourself. No matter what you do, I support you."
Lin Xiuyao hugged Su Qingmeng: "My wife is so good."
"When do you want to quit?"
Lin Xiuyao said, "I'll go talk to the director tomorrow." He really didn't like this routine life.
The seniority system in this kind of department is also very annoying. He is a young man from the countryside who came from another place. Although he is a college student, many people look down on him. He is a bit annoyed to deal with these things every day.
Lin Xiuyao applied for resignation. Although his boss tried to persuade him to stay, he was very determined and approved his resignation application.
After Lin Xiuyao resigned, he bought a motorcycle for 2,000 yuan. At the time, the average monthly wage for a worker was just over 40 yuan, and even without food or drink, it would take four or five years of work to afford one. He had wanted to buy a car for a long time, but it didn't look good at work, so he didn't buy one.
Su Qingmeng was picked up from school. Lin Xiuyao would take her to school every morning, which took only 20 minutes, and pick her up in the evening.
During the day, he renovated the two shops at home. Now his family has two shops, near Xidan and Qianmen Street.
They haven't bought a house in recent years. House prices didn't change much in the 1980s, and they have limited cash, so they're not in a hurry to invest in real estate.
