Chapter 51: The Dating Storm
Zhuang Shuyi was looking forward to this lunch. I don’t know how many times I went to my grandmother’s kitchen in the morning to inquire, and my saliva was almost dry.
But, why is this but?
"Eat Liuliu quickly, aren't you looking forward to this?" Sister Yuan picked up chopsticks and tofu into her bowl with malicious intentions.
Zhuang Shuyi lowered his head and thanked him, ate the tofu in the bowl. Then he didn't even dare to lift his head to pick up a piece of it, and silenced the rice in the bowl.
Why didn't she look up? It was because the completely unfamiliar young man sitting opposite her. Isn't it the blind date partner that Ah Niang said is good everywhere?
Alas! Zhuang Shuyi was chewing the rice while complaining.
It’s all right to meet. Why do you have to choose such an important moment for lunch? It makes her feel uneasy even after a meal. Not to mention eating, her stomach will hurt.
Sister Xin and Sister Yuan were not married yet, why did they get anxious when they got here? Sister Xin was eighteen and she didn't see her uncle in a hurry. She was only fifteen, and her father and mother were so anxious that they could not meet today and send her out tomorrow.
The old girls in the old society are like this. Now it’s the Republic of China, why are my father and mother still so pedantic? My father is all foreigners, and he is still like the old stubborn people in the old society.
Anyway, Zhuang Shuyi made up her mind to not say a word to the other party. When she went back, she told Ah Niang that the other party looked unsatisfied. Thinking about Ah Niang's favor for her, she would never force her to get married.
Although I thought so, Zhuang Shuyi still felt uneasy and nervous inside.
"Liuliu, this little yellow croaker is well made today. Don't you really try it?" Liu Wenping also made a fuss.
Zhuang Shuyi didn't even dare to say anything. He lowered his head and searched for a while, stepped on his cousin Ping's shoes, and crushed them hard.
"Ah! Yes, I'm sorry."
The voice of this is wrong.
Zhuang Shuyi raised his head and found that the people at this table were covering their mouths and laughing secretly, even grandma was no exception. The person who was stepped on by her was not the cousin who bullied her, but the boy who was praised by her mother.
Zhuang Shuyi immediately blushed, stood up, and hurried over to apologize. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it was me who was accidentally. Are you burning?"
He was drinking soup, but Zhuang Shuyi stepped on it, and it was accurate and cruel. He couldn't spill the soup in the bowl. Fortunately, he was not the kind of stingy man, and he said to Zhuang Shuyi very gently. "It's okay. I'll just come by myself."
Zhuang Shuyi was still very embarrassed and helped him get the wet towel and handed it to him. At this time, Zhuang Shuyi saw his true face.
He is indeed a handsome young man, not only beautiful, but also very energetic. Unlike many young people today, they look like a student who is well-read in poetry and books.
"I'm sorry." Zhuang Shuyi apologized sincerely again.
"No, nothing." The man seemed to be very scholarly, but he was not stunned at all. After dinner, he took the initiative to invite Zhuang Shuyi to take a walk by the river.
If Zhuang Shuyi was not willing to get along with him before lunch, he would never be willing to go for a walk, and even talk. But now that this is the case, how could Zhuang Shuyi have the nerve to refuse?
She agreed after the trouble of her cousin.
There are many small rivers near my grandmother's house, and there are ancient stone bridges on the river, and beautiful bamboos are always planted beside the bridge. In the past, many men and women came here to play together, and I don't know how many scenes of reunion and separation have been born.
"I'm sorry." Zhuang Shuyi didn't know what to say, and subconsciously apologized again.
"I really need to be sorry." The man smiled shyly at her. "I haven't introduced myself yet. My surname is Wei, my name is Junxi, and my name is Xusheng. Just call me Xusheng."
"The Rising Sun is rising, your name is really good. My name is Zhuang Shuyi, so you can call me Shuyi." Zhuang Shuyi praised with a smile.
"How dare you? Miss Zhuang." Wei Junxi abides by the rituals and dares not shout. But he said another thing, calling Zhuang Shuyi very happy. "Miss Zhuang's name is generous and graceful. I believe Ling Zun and Ling Tang must have put some effort into it."
"Yeah." She praised Zhuang Shuyi herself, but she didn't praise her father and mother to make her happy. But that's all, she really didn't know how to take on the topic.
Another thing is that there are so many fools behind them. When they went out, Zhuang Shuyi heard many hurried footsteps. As soon as the corner passed, she saw the skirt that Sister Xin wore in the morning.
Wei Junxi continued to find ways to find common ground between the two. "I heard that Miss Zhuang has read a bunch of books, and I have read a few books a little. I wonder if I can discuss it with Miss Zhuang if I have time?"
"Of course it's fine." Zhuang Shuyi kicked the stones on the ground while glanced backwards, and then he saw four faces smirking at her very smoothly. Well, there were many of them, and they all came to see her jokes.
This is because Zhuang Shuyi misunderstood them. He went on blind dates, but letting his own girl go out alone with adult men from other families, how could their family "Du Nu" be willing?
However, Zhuang Shuyi was not wrong. They did have the intention of watching the fun.
"I wonder where Miss Zhuang is studying at?" Wei Junxi thoughtfully helped her walk past the uneven road.
"The Virgin Mary Girls' School." Zhuang Shuyi smiled at him.
She was already starting to feel bored. Is this a survey of her details? She talked about where she went to school, what books she had read, what she liked to do after class.
The topic became more and more dry. The scene was so awkward that Zhuang Shuyi wanted to find a slit to escape. It was really strange. She looked at her watch and it was only twenty minutes later. She thought several hours had passed.
If you are with Yangbo, it will be completely different. Not to mention a few hours, even a few days and nights, there will be endless things to say, and the things you can't finish are simply passing by.
"Do we want to go there to take a look?" Wei Junxi seemed to realize that she was a little bored, so he suggested going to the reed marsh by the river to take a look.
Zhuang Shuyi was also bored and nodded in agreement.
The reeds were meaningless. Zhuang Shuyi broke off a small piece and swayed boringly. At this moment, a faint sound came not far away.
"I wonder if Miss Zhuang wants to study abroad?" Wei Junxi tentatively tentatively.
"No, right? I just want to stay at home." Zhuang Shuyi paid attention to the sound and accidentally revealed his heart.
"Isn't that a pity for Miss Zhuang's talent? I think you can consider it. Columbia University in New York is very good, I already..." Wei Junxi was still saying that Zhuang Shuyi, who suddenly stood behind him, disappeared. "Miss Zhuang?"
Zhuang Shuyi was sure that what he heard was not an illusion, so he ran over.
"Miss Zhuang, Miss Zhuang, where are you going?" Wei Junxi followed behind strangely.
"Someone is calling for help." Zhuang Shuyi lifted the corner of her skirt and ran quickly at a level that was not in line with the ethics of a lady.
Wei Junxi couldn't keep up for a moment. The people who were watching the fun came over later. Sister Yuan slapped Wei Junxi on the back. "What's wrong? What's wrong? What have you done to my sister? If you dare to bully her, I won't beat you to death."
"Yuan'er, how could you say that? It's too vulgar." Sister Xin said gently, turning her face to smile at the three men present. "If you don't protect Liuliu well, I will break your legs. Why don't you go quickly."
This smiling girl is much more terrifying than a stern girl.
Liu Wenping and Liu Youhe have long been used to it. The girls in their homes go to the martial arts hall and go to the kitchen, and a kitchen knife can make them powerful. The brothers in the family are all beaten and beaten. Now they are used to it.
The two looked at each other and smiled bitterly, dragging Wei Junxi, who was dumbfounded, and chased him quickly. Wei Junxi was a weak scholar, running out of breath. "Miss Zhuang, you run so fast."
"You don't know, my sister is running very fast." Liu Youhe just started to hit her head when she was knocked violently by Liu Wenping.
"Shut up, don't know how to see your partner." Liu Wenping couldn't help but beat him, so how could he slander his girl in front of his blind date?
Even if it is now the 12th year of the Republic of China, running fast is not a girl's advantage.
Zhuang Shuyi didn't hear the call behind him at all, and didn't care what the other party looked at her. When she heard the sound, she felt uneasy and panic. It was flowing water, waves, and crying for help.
Has someone fallen into the water? Has someone fallen into the endless cold and terrible river water no longer come up?
Her hair was standing all over her body, and the suffocating hallucination once again surged into her throat like a tide. She was only one step away from drowning in the storm of the river.
