That time on the train from Hacheng to Ningyang, Zhou Chen left a deep impression on Peng Yongli, which made her have a great impression of him.
Not long ago, she met Zhou Chen again at the railway compound, and learned a lot about Zhou Chen from Ma Yan's mouth. This made her, who had just begun to have a love affair, couldn't help but become more interested in Zhou Chen. Otherwise, it was just a matter of getting tickets.
There was no need for the two of them to meet in the park, and they even agreed to go watch a movie with Zhou Chen.
Zhou Chen pushed his bicycle and walked on the road with Peng Yongli.
Zhou Chen looked natural and relaxed, while Peng Yongli was not as calm as Zhou Chen, and she was always nervous.
This was her first date alone with a member of the opposite sex. She didn't know why she became so bold, but she was sure that she didn't hate this feeling, she was just nervous.
"This place is quite far from the cinema. If we walk all the way there, it will take a long time. I'd better take you there by bike?"
Zhou Chen took the initiative to speak, and since Peng Yongli decided to go to the movies with Zhou Chen, she naturally would not refuse because of this, so she nodded a little shyly.
"good."
So Peng Yongli got on the back seat of Zhou Chen's bicycle. After Zhou Chen started it, she was afraid of instability, but she didn't dare to hug Zhou Chen, so she used both hands to hold Zhou Chen's clothes to steady herself.
Zhou Chen rode the bicycle smoothly, with no bumps along the way, which made Peng Yongli gradually relax.
"Lili, I don't know yet, what major did you major in university?"
"I majored in Chinese. My dad said that it would be good to be a teacher or literary editor in the future, or I could take the public examination and work as a civil servant."
"Oh, uncle's considerations make sense. These are relatively easy and respectable professions."
"My dad just doesn't want to see me suffer."
Peng Yongli is happy but troubled. Young people at this age are somewhat rebellious. Although she knows that her father is for her own good, she still inevitably feels like she cannot make the decision on her own.
On the way, the innocent and careless Peng Yongli seemed to have opened up her chatterbox and told Zhou Chen a lot about herself.
During the conversation with her, Zhou Chen also learned about the situation in her family.
Peng Yongli's mother died when she was very young, and she grew up dependent on her father. Because Peng Mingjie had a good job and there was plenty of money in prison, she didn't say she had good food and clothing since she was a child, but at least she didn't lack food or clothing and lived a good life.
Better than most Chinese people.
It is precisely because he only has one relative, his daughter, that Peng Mingjie protects her daughter very well. This is a good thing, but it also makes Peng Yongli a little willful and self-centered. Her personality is also relatively simple, without any narrow-mindedness, and she is the kind of person who is easily fooled.
People who appear confused.
After talking about some of her own situation, Peng Yongli also asked some questions about Zhou Chen. Although she heard a lot about Zhou Chen from Ma Yan, Ma Yan's knowledge was limited, and she wanted to know more.
She was at the age when her love affair first started, plus she had a great liking for Zhou Chen and a little bit of admiration, so she wanted to know more about him and get closer to Zhou Chen.
We are already college students, so it seems that falling in love is not impossible.
Zhou Chen told some about his situation, the two of them were talking and laughing, and soon arrived at the cinema.
The cinemas of this era are naturally incomparable to those of a few decades later, and the screen quality is even worse. There are no special effects at all, and they all rely on the plot to support them.
Zhou Chen found it boring, but Peng Yongli watched it very seriously. Even though she was a college student, she only watched a handful of big-screen movies.
After watching the movie, Zhou Chen invited Peng Yongli to have a meal at the restaurant and sent her back to school after dark.
Arriving at the school gate, Peng Yongli said to Zhou Chen seriously: "Zhou Chen, thank you for today."
Zhou Chen smiled slightly and said warmly: "No need to thank you, we are friends, aren't we? The ticket I bought for you is the train I am in charge of. If you need anything when you get on the train, you can come to me."
"Um."
Peng Yongli looked happy. After saying goodbye to Zhou Chen, she turned around and entered the school gate. After entering, she turned back and waved to Zhou Chen.
Zhou Chen also waved to her, then turned around and rode away.
After returning home, Zhou Chen started to get busy. Cai Xiaonian was getting married. Although he didn't give any ideas, he agreed to help and prepared to build a table with four legs.
He did not buy it, but planned to use his wood carving skills to build a table for Cai Xiaonian. The materials were already prepared and he could start at any time.
Two days later, Zhou Chen arrived at the station early. He first checked the train and then got off the train to maintain order. When it was time to board the train, he followed Yu Xingguo and the others to maintain order and lead the passengers onto the train.
"Zhou Chen."
Suddenly there was a clear voice, Zhou Chen turned his head and saw Peng Yongli looking at him with a smile, and Peng Mingjie with her.
"Uncle, Lili, you are here."
Peng Mingjie looked carefully and said calmly: "I heard from Lili that I was able to buy the tickets this time thanks to your help. Thank you very much."
Zhou Chen smiled and said: "Uncle, you're welcome. You are Uncle Ma's friend, and Uncle Ma is my elder. Buying a ticket is just a trivial matter."
Peng Mingjie's expression was complicated. He and his daughter had been dependent on each other for many years, and he knew his daughter best. He could tell that his daughter had a different attitude toward Zhou Chen. She kept talking about Zhou Chen all the way to the station, so he felt very complicated.
Although he had known that his daughter would have such a day sooner or later, he still felt very uncomfortable when something really happened. This was a little cabbage that he had raised by himself.
From what Ma Kui and his daughter said, he could also tell that Zhou Chen was a very good and promising young man.
But no matter how good and promising he is, in his eyes, she is not as good as his daughter. His daughter is a college student, well-behaved, intelligent, quiet and elegant...
There are so many advantages that I can’t even count them.
The most important thing is that his daughter is still young, less than twenty, and he really can't bear to let her find a partner so quickly.
With mixed feelings, Peng Mingjie and his daughter boarded the train together and arrived at the sleeper car. Zhou Chen bought them bunk beds together, which was relatively more convenient.
Not long after the train started, Peng Yongli said to Peng Mingjie: "Dad, I'm going to the dining car at the back to do my homework."
Peng Mingjie frowned slightly: "There is a table here, so just write here."
Peng Yongli said coquettishly: "Dad, it's too noisy here, and there are so many people coming and going, I can't calm down. There are fewer people in the dining car, so it should be quieter."
"Hmm."
Peng Mingjie snorted softly and said, "I see it's not only quiet over there, but more importantly, who else is there?"
Peng Yongli's face suddenly turned red: "Dad, where did you think you were? I just want to find a quiet place to do my homework."
"Okay, okay, I understand, go ahead, go ahead."
She felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, but after all, she loved her daughter, so Peng Mingjie didn't stop her.
He was also someone who had been here before. Looking at his daughter like this, he knew that she already had a different feeling for Zhou Chen.
However, he made a decision in his heart. When he comes to Ningyang next time, he must find Ma Kui and inquire about Zhou Chen. If Zhou Chen is really good, it is not impossible to consider it. After all, he will definitely find someone who knows the basics.
It's better than finding someone you don't know.
When Peng Yongli came to the dining car, Zhou Chen was talking to Lu Hongxing, and they were talking about Cai Xiaonian's marriage.
Cai Xiaonian followed everyone's advice and went to Tang Yanhong's house again to discuss it. However, his mother-in-law said a few words and ran back in despair.
"This young man, even though he is very talkative in the car, he is really useless when meeting his future mother-in-law. She will be taken advantage of."
Zhou Chen said with a smile: "Good things take a long time. It's better to let them get along more now than to make noise after they get married."
Lu Hongxing looked surprised: "Oh, you kid doesn't even have a partner, yet you can still say such reasonable things."
"I've never eaten pork, but I've seen pigs running around before."
"I don't mean to be rude, but this kid, well, it's not easy for his parents to find a wife for him. Fortunately, I think his partner is pretty good and can live a good life. As long as he meets their requirements, he can get married this year.
By then, our compound will be lively and lively."
Cai Xiaonian is Lu Hongxing's apprentice. These days, the relationship between master and apprentice is still very important, so he is also very concerned about Cai Xiaonian's marriage.
"Zhou Chen, you are about the same age as Xiaonian. He is about to get married. Don't you have any sense of urgency?"
"To be honest, not really."
"Hey, you kid..."
While they were talking, a girl walked in with a book in her arms. When she saw Zhou Chen in the dining car, her eyes suddenly lit up and she called softly: "Zhou Chen."
Zhou Chen and Lu Hongxing both turned their heads and looked over. When they saw it was Peng Yongli, Zhou Chen immediately stood up.
"Lili, why are you here? It's not dinner time yet."
Peng Yongli smiled brightly and said, "I'm not here to eat. I didn't feel sleepy when I got on the bus, so I just wanted to do my homework. But it was too noisy in the car, so I was wondering if I could come to the dining car."
"No problem at all."
Zhou Chen answered in the affirmative, and then led Peng Yongli to the empty dining table behind Lu Hongxing.
"That's it, just write here and tell me if you need anything."
Peng Yongli put the book on the table: "I don't need anything. I won't disturb you here, right?" She glanced around and saw all the staff in the car.
Everyone's eyes were always staring at her, and their eyes were full of curiosity. Zhou Chen had been in this car for more than four years, and they had never seen Zhou Chen be so close to any girl, and bring everyone to the dining car.
coming.
Zhou Chen said: "It's okay, don't bother me."
Although Lu Hongxing didn't know what the situation was, he was still very considerate and said enthusiastically: "Yes, don't bother me, little girl, you can sit down for as long as you want."
"Yes, yes, yes." Several other staff members nodded repeatedly.
"Thanks."
Peng Yongli's face turned slightly red. She could tell that everyone looked at her strangely. She also understood why this was the case, but she still pretended to be calm and sat down.
Lu Hongxing winked at Zhou Chen and whispered, "What's going on?"
Zhou Chen whispered: "A friend."
"Friends? Haha."
Lu Hongxing gave Zhou Chen a look like "You think I'm stupid". In front of so many people, how could he be just a friend?
Zhou Chen ignored him and sat down opposite Peng Yongli. He ignored the looks of everyone watching and talking to Peng Yongli.
Although everyone was very curious about the relationship between Zhou Chen and Peng Yongli, they also consciously did not disturb them. At most, they only stared at them more.
In the broadcast room, Yao Yuling stood up, stretched, picked up the water glass next to her, walked out of the studio, and prepared to go to the dining car to get a glass of water.
But when she walked into the dining car humming a song and greeted her colleagues with a smile, she glanced around and suddenly froze.
I saw one of the dining tables. Zhou Chen was sitting side by side with a young girl. Zhou Chen was holding a pen in his hand, writing and drawing on the paper, and was whispering something. The girl listened very seriously.
, and nodded from time to time, looking very close.
This scene made her look stupid. She and Zhou Chen had known each other for several years. She had been interested in Zhou Chen at first, but before she had time to express it, Zhou Chen politely rejected her.
Although she was very dissatisfied, she did not bother with it anymore. Over the past few years, she had not seen Zhou Chen getting close to any girl. He had not even gone to see a girl introduced to him by a neighbor in the courtyard. This made her secretly
I guess there is something wrong with Zhou Chen.
Suddenly seeing Zhou Chen so close to a young girl, she really couldn't get used to it.
She saw Cai Xiaonian sitting aside, also looking at Zhou Chen, so she quietly sat over.
"Cai Xiaonian, what's going on?" she asked, pointing to Zhou Chen.
Cai Xiaonian whispered: "I don't know what's going on. When I came in, I saw this. I heard from my master that this girl seems to have come to Zhou Chen specially. There is definitely something fishy."
There was a lot of gossip in his eyes. If the girl hadn't been there, he would have immediately asked Zhou Chen to inquire about the situation.
Suddenly, under their gaze, the girl showed a bright smile to Zhou Chen, and then handed another book to Zhou Chen. The two communicated quietly there, talking and laughing from time to time.
They are very close, and it doesn't look like a simple friendship at first glance.
Seeing this kind of scene, Yao Yuling felt very unhappy. Zhou Chen had always been lukewarm towards her, but now he was so close to another girl, which made her very unwilling.
'This woman doesn't look very good either.'
The more she looked at her, the more unbalanced she became. She asked Cai Xiaonian next to her unhappily: "Cai Xiaonian, let me ask you, who is more beautiful between me and that woman?"
"ah?"
Cai Xiaonian, who was watching the excitement and wanting to gossip, was stunned when he heard Yao Yuling's inexplicable question.
"Ah, what, let me ask you, who is more beautiful between me and that girl?"
Hearing Yao Yuling's dissatisfaction, Cai Xiaonian scratched his head. He was about to have a family, so it would be inappropriate for him to comment on this, right? I'm not a superficial person.
"In terms of looks alone, you should be the prettier."
Yao Yuling suddenly showed a look of satisfaction, it seemed that her beauty was recognized.
"However, she is a few years younger than you, and I just heard from my master and others that this girl seems to be a college student."
Yao Yuling's face turned dark immediately. The most annoying thing about women is their age disadvantage. Also, this woman is still a college student? If true, then her technical secondary school education is really inferior. This makes her always so strong.
, I felt even more unhappy.
Cai Xiaonian didn't pay attention to Yao Yuling's expression. He dragged his chin and said quietly: "No wonder Zhou Chen didn't want to find a partner before. It turns out that he was ambitious and wanted to find a college student partner. Tsk tsk, you are a role model for our generation. I admire you, I admire you."
