As soon as he opened the door, Zhou Chen saw Han Chunyan standing outside the door.
Although it was dark night, Zhou Chen could clearly see Han Chunyan's appearance from such a close distance.
This was the third time he met Han Chunyan, and Han Chunyan did not leave a deep impression on him.
When a man looks at a woman, his first impression is always her appearance. If you say you look at her soul, that’s just bragging. When you meet her for the first time, can you see her soul?
Zhou Chen is also a layman, so when he looks at a woman, his first impression is also about appearance.
As for Han Chunming's second sister, Han Chunyan, she is exactly the kind of woman who is not very good-looking. She can only be regarded as average and has no outstanding features.
He is probably just over 1.6 meters tall, not much more, and his facial features can only be considered average, ordinary.
If there is anything that stands out, it is that her skin is relatively white and she has a plump figure. You can tell with just one glance that she must feel very good when you touch her.
"Hello, are you here to see Chunming?"
When Han Chunyan saw Zhou Chen, her face was full of smiles: "Yes, I just came to see our Xiaowu. He didn't come back so late. My mother was really worried, so she asked me to come out and look for her. I
I remember that he often came to your place before, so I came over to have a look."
Zhou Chen didn't think much and said directly: "Chunming is indeed here with me. He may have been a little stimulated today. When he arrived at my place, he was already very drunk. I couldn't stop him. Now he is drunk.
Yes, I made him fall asleep on the bed."
"Ah, drunk?"
Han Chunyan was very surprised. She didn't know what was going on with Han Chunming. She came here not only to see Han Chunming, but also to meet Zhou Chen again.
Now when he heard that Han Chunming was drunk, he couldn't care less about his own thoughts and hurriedly asked about his brother.
"Well, I drank a lot. It's at my house. I'll take you to see it."
Zhou Chen led Han Chunyan to the room where Han Chunming slept.
Before they even walked in, the two heard Han Chunming's thunderous snoring, and they knew he was sleeping deeply.
Han Chunyan walked into the room and looked at Han Chunming who was sleeping like a dead pig. She went over and slapped him a few times, but Han Chunming didn't react at all.
"What should we do? If my mother knew he was like this, she would be extremely anxious."
Looking at Han Chunyan who was getting angry and a little distressed, Zhou Chen asked tentatively: "Why don't you let him sleep here? Otherwise, you can't get him back alone."
Han Chunyan thought for a while and said: "This is the only way, but it is too troublesome for you."
Zhou Chen smiled and said, "It's no trouble. I'm used to this guy eating and drinking around here. It's okay."
He is usually the only one in his family and is not very popular. The relationship between the two of them is very good, so he doesn't care about Han Chunming's shamelessness.
But Han Chunyan was still embarrassed: "My brother is really causing trouble for you. He usually brags and says he has many friends, but when I saw something happened to him, he came to you. If it weren't for you, he probably wouldn't have anywhere to go.
."
"We're all friends, it doesn't matter."
Han Chunyan suddenly said: "I see there is some mess outside. My brother must have done it. I'm so sorry. I'll go help clean it up."
When Zhou Chen heard this, he quickly stopped him: "No, no, it's okay. I can take care of it myself. I'll do it myself."
But Han Chunyan still walked quickly to the main room, not giving Zhou Chen a chance to stop him, and started cleaning up with a broom.
"Oh, no need, this is really..."
"It doesn't matter. My brother has already caused you so much trouble. It's right for me to help him. It's definitely more convenient for us women to do this kind of thing than for you men. Just give in and I'll take care of it.
"
Zhou Chen looked helpless and wanted to step forward to stop him, but after all, there were differences between men and women, so he couldn't do anything.
"well."
He was not a straight man, so how could he not see Han Chunyan's little thoughts? Han Chunyan did come to see his younger brother, but she probably came to him specifically.
Having experienced so many relationships and marriages, his sensitivity to matters between men and women far exceeds that of most people.
It was obvious that Han Chunyan had different feelings for him, and might even be attracted to him.
But this is not his wish. In this world, he has not thought about finding a woman yet, at least not yet.
What's more, he didn't know Han Chunyan well, and she was Han Chunming's sister. The relationship was really complicated, so he didn't want to provoke Han Chunyan at all, let alone have the intention.
When Han Chunyan saw that Zhou Chen was not stopping her, a smile appeared on her lips and she was very happy in her heart.
She has never dated anyone, and she doesn't know much about men. She mostly knows about them from her mother, eldest sister, and some colleagues.
What she heard most was that men like hard-working women, so she wanted to show her hard-working side in front of Zhou Chen to increase his impression and favor.
Zhou Chen couldn't stop him and could only watch Han Chunyan carefully clean up.
In fact, Zhou Chen loves to be clean, and Zhou Yi often comes to clean the house, so apart from the damage caused by Han Chunming just now, there is nothing to clean in the rest of the place.
But Zhou Chen still underestimated women. After Han Chunyan finished cleaning that area, she did not stop, but cleaned other places.
"It's almost done. You really don't need to clean anymore. It's getting late. How about you go back first?"
Zhou Chen really didn't know how to address Han Chunyan, and he didn't want Han Chunyan to be my sister-in-law here anymore, so he had no choice but to speak.
Han Chunyan smiled and said, "It's okay. I think this place is a bit dirty. Just a casual matter. By the way, you can just call me Chunyan."
Zhou Chen smiled awkwardly and did not cry out.
As soon as he heard the word Chunyan, he couldn't help but think of Qiao Chunyan in the human world. The two people actually had the same name.
"Well, I have to rest too. I have to go to work tomorrow. You must also have to go to work tomorrow. You'd better go back first."
Zhou Chen issued an eviction order again, making Han Chunyan's expression slightly embarrassed.
"Okay, then I will go back first, and I will ask you to take care of Chunming."
"This is a small matter. Leave Chunming to me, so you can rest assured."
Finally, Zhou Chen sent Han Chunyan to the door, and Han Chunyan reluctantly left.
Zhou Chen closed the door and couldn't help but sigh. They said that women chase men with separate veils. There is indeed some truth to this saying.
If a woman really puts down her face and pursues a man, it is estimated that nine and a half out of ten men will be unable to resist her, unless the woman is really ugly...
Judging from Han Chunyan's appearance, he probably just had a good impression of him for the time being, not to the extent of liking him, so he felt that he had to cut off Han Chunyan's thoughts as soon as possible.
He really has never thought about becoming Han Chunming's brother-in-law. The brothers and sisters of the Han family are not fuel-efficient.
With his thoughts in mind, Zhou Chen quickly fell asleep.
Early the next morning, Zhou Chen woke up Han Chunming early. Han Chunming rubbed his head and opened his eyes, and found that this was not his home, and he was a little confused.
"Zhou Chen, why should I sleep at your house?"
Zhou Chen rolled his eyes and said: "You have to ask yourself, last night you came to me for a drink, but you got drunk before I even drank, and then you cried and complained to me, saying how much you did
It’s not easy, how…”
"Stop, stop, stop."
Han Chunming couldn't listen anymore, and quickly stopped Zhou Chen from continuing, because at this moment, a picture appeared in his mind.
He drank a lot last night, but he still remembered some things. He was indeed the one who found them last night.
"I didn't do anything embarrassing when I was drunk, right?"
"Haha, don't you think what you said is embarrassing enough? You are such a lovebird to put yourself like that for a Su Meng."
Han Chunming said depressedly: "Okay, please stop laughing at me. I'm already feeling very uncomfortable. If you don't comfort me, that's all, and you're adding fuel to the fire."
"Hmph, if I really added fuel to the fire, I would have thrown you out on the street last night and asked the old lady in charge to take you into the police station."
"Stop sitting there, get up quickly, get dressed and get out of here. I have to go to work later."
After hearing this, Han Chunming immediately got out of bed, put on his clothes, took two buns from Zhou Chen's table, and was ready to leave.
Zhou Chen stopped him: "Oh, Chunming."
Han Chunming turned around: "What's wrong?"
Zhou Chen opened his mouth to talk about Han Chunyan, but after thinking about it, he finally didn't speak.
"Forget it, it's okay. I just want to tell you that when you collect rags, if you receive a good treasure, bring it over and show it to me. As long as it meets my wishes, money will never be a problem."
Han Chunming said contemptuously: "There are really good things, so I will keep them myself and leave them to you?"
"roll."
…………
Time flies so fast, more than a year has passed in the blink of an eye, and we have arrived in 1977.
"Brother Zhou, are you leaving?"
"Let's go, Xiao Wu, the third book on your right is misplaced, it should be on top."
Zhou Chen passed by the first floor and said hello to Xiao Wu, a new employee in the library. Then he pointed to a book on the bookshelf and reminded Xiao Wu.
Xiao Wu looked at it and found that he was indeed wrong. He took the book and was about to thank Zhou Chen, but found that Zhou Chen had already left.
"Brother Zhou is really awesome. He actually remembers the location of the bookshelf I'm in charge of."
At this time, an old employee next to him came over: "Of course Zhou Chen is great. He has read the most books in our library. Most of the translated books were translated by him. It's hard to say
It’s an exaggeration. We can do without anyone in our library, but we can’t live without Zhou Chen.”
"Brother Zhou, how powerful is he?"
"What do you think? I heard that several libraries want to poach Zhou Chen, but Zhou Chen and Director Zhao are uncle-nephew, so it's useless for anyone to poach him."
…………
Zhou Chen rode home, took out the meat he bought in the morning, made fried meat, and made two vegetarian dishes. Just as he was about to eat, there was a knock on the door.
When I opened the door and saw two familiar faces, Yang Huajian and Mao Tutu, I was quite speechless.
"I said you two are stupid, you came here just in time for the meal."
Yang Huajian turned to Mao Tutu and said with a smile: "Tell me, we are here to give money, but they are not happy anymore. Why, Zhou Chen, don't want the money anymore?"
Mao Tu sniffed his nose and said with a smile: "I smell meat and wine."
"come in."
Zhou Chen led the two of them into the room, added two more sets of bowls and chopsticks, and the three of them sat at the table.
Just as Mao Tutu was about to take the money from his bag, Zhou Chen stopped him and said, "Don't worry, let's eat first."
"OK."
A few dishes and a bottle of wine, the three of them finished it quickly.
After finishing, Mao Tutu took out his wallet again, took out three stacks of money, and handed it to Zhou Chen.
"Zhou Chen, as you ordered, I stopped our business and converted everything into cash. This is your portion, a total of three thousand, no more, no less."
Zhou Chen took the money and put it aside. In this day and age, three thousand yuan is really a huge sum of money, but in Zhou Chen's eyes, it's just like that.
He is currently working in the library and can get more than a hundred dollars every month for various expenses. Add in their business, and his annual income is not low.
Mao Tu asked hesitantly: "Zhou Chen, are you really sure what you told us before?"
Yang Huajian also asked curiously: "Yes, Zhou Chen, I asked my dad, and my dad said that there is indeed such an intention, but the final result has not come out yet. Why are you so sure?"
Zhou Chen replied unhurriedly: "Don't worry about why I am so sure, just believe me. Either at the end of this year or at the beginning of next year, the college entrance examination must be resumed. I asked you to stop the business for your sake. Now
Although your business can make money, compared with going to college, which one do you think is more important?"
Yang Huajian said: "Needless to say, it is definitely more important to get into college. Although the supply and marketing cooperative method can make money, it is not sustainable, and the bigger you do it, the greater the risk. You might as well stop it."
"I just feel it's a pity. We finally laid out the dishes, but now we just give up."
Mao Tutu's face was full of pity. He had single-handedly brought about this incident. He was the one who was most reluctant to give up now.
Zhou Chen said: "It's no pity. Believe me, there will be more ways to make a lot of money in the future. What's more important now is to get into college. If you get into college, you will be more successful in your career or other things in the future."
That is to say, they have a good relationship and often play together. Otherwise, he would not have told them in advance about the resumption of the college entrance examination.
Mao Tutu sighed: "Business is on the one hand, but on the other hand, even if the college entrance examination resumes, I have no confidence in passing it. I haven't studied for so many years, and I didn't even go to high school. Now I'm starting to study again.
It’s simply too late.”
Yang Huajian also has this concern, but he has more on his mind.
"What Zhou Chen said makes sense. No matter whether you can pass the exam or not, you still have to work hard. It is right to stop the business."
"By the way, have you told Han Chunming about this?"
Zhou Chen said: "I haven't seen that boy Han Chunming for more than a month, and I don't know where he went to collect his things."
Yang Huajian smiled and said: "This kid is really good at collecting rags with gusto. There is really no one else with this mentality."
"By the way, Zhou Chen, there is one more thing. I have discussed it with Lu Hong and others before, and we are planning to hold a gathering of educated youth. It has been more than two years since we returned to the city, and we have not had a gathering so far. Now we can find a time
Get together, let’s all get together to chat and drink.”
Zhou Chen shrugged and said: "I don't care. If you want to hold it, I will participate. Just let me know when and where. I don't care about the rest."
Educated youth gatherings are similar to future class reunions. They say they are gatherings, but in fact they are more about showing off. After all, we have not seen each other for more than two years. On the one hand, we want to connect with each other. On the other hand, many people want to see what other people have.
