Chapter 289: Time waits for no one(1/2)
The old couple exchanged words with each other, and it was interesting to talk about old things from more than 20 years ago.
At that time, pushing a brand new bicycle was enough to show off. Xu Wenbin had a big red flower on his chest, covering his entire chest, and even had to hold his pants pockets when taking photos to look cool.
Nowadays, when you get married, you need to have a procession and a uniform car to greet the bride.
Going back further, Jiang He wanted a sedan when he got married.
Four people, from three different eras, gathered together at the table. Xu Qing and Jiang He looked at each other and saw tenderness in each other's eyes.
When you get married, everything is old, but the bride is new.
Getting married now... eh, it's been opened in advance.
Guilty sin.
"When are you going to get married? At the end of the year?" Zhou Suzhi also mentioned this matter.
"Roughly the same.."
Xu Qing gave an ambiguous answer. He still wanted to discuss it between the two of us and be casual, and didn't want to treat it like a task.
Zhou Suzhi nodded and looked at Jiang He, feeling that the girl was getting more and more plump as she grew older.
I used to be a little dull, with calluses on my hands, and my hair was not as shiny as it is now. Now I look carefully, and the more I look at it, the more I like it. The eyes are dark and bright, full of energy.
If she was a yellow-haired girl when she first saw her, now she is half a lady and has grown up.
Let Xu Qing be raised well.
She naturally attributed the cause of the change to Xu Qing. If the two of them eat well and sleep well, they will be in good spirits.
Xu Qing himself couldn't feel it. He spent all day and night together, and only occasionally flipping through photo albums could he feel the slight change. Violence and barbarism were still violent and barbaric. This had not changed.
In the blink of an eye, it has been three years.
Time is a thing that moves slowly when you pay attention to it. Occasionally, if you look back inadvertently, you will find that it has slipped away so much.
Three years...According to Xu Qing's original plan, the matter of identity should have just been settled by now, but it was completed one year ahead of schedule.
There are two people who are now talking about getting married... half a year of being together day and night is almost enough. They have fallen in love with each other and their relationship has developed very quickly. Maybe it's because Jiang He is alone and lonely in modern times.
In short, looking forward from this point, my ideas at the time were too conservative.
In the eyes of Zhou Suzhi and Xu Wenbin, except for the fact that Xu Qing suddenly brought a girl back, which was a bit sudden at first, everything else was normal and they were at the age to talk about marriage.
"Little Mouse, it seems they are getting engaged. Your engagement..." Zhou Suzhi's eyes fell on the ring on Jiang He's finger.
"It's booked." Jiang He noticed her gaze and lowered his head slightly, looking shy.
"Well……"
Zhou Suzhi wanted to say that she didn't mean that, it was an engagement party... But looking at Xu Qing and the others, it became clear that these two were just waiting to get married, and there was no such thing as an engagement and a dowry.
The bride price has been exchanged for a house for two people, and they will be able to move there in two months.
After the meal was over, Xu Qing packed up the bowls and chopsticks and moved them into the kitchen. The four of them ate like a banquet. Jiang He bought a lot of vegetables and worked for another half an afternoon. Now he was the one who was tired after the meal.
.
Xu Wenbin took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes. With such a large table of food, he thought there would be a lot left over. Xu Qing became as good an eater as a piggy. Taking his wife with him was like someone who had been starving at home for two days and came here to eat.
.
Why is it so edible?
Why is it so edible?
The old man was puzzled and felt that he could not understand more and more.
"Mouse is getting engaged? Very soon."
After washing the dishes, Xu Qing did not rush to drag Jiang He back. He wandered to the balcony and looked across, a little surprised at Qin Hao's speed.
"I heard from Lao Qin that we are already discussing the bride price. If we don't get married, it will be too late. We are already at this age. In the past, there were children as old as you."
"What do you mean we are so old?" Xu Qing felt that Xu Wenbin's choice of words was inappropriate. He turned around and met Jiang He's eyes. He was startled and said quickly: "We are not in a hurry. Don't listen to my dad's nonsense.
Only twenty-five or six years old..."
Xu Qing paused mid-sentence.
Why is labor and capital only twenty-six?
Xu Qing was shocked.
It seemed like it would be two years before his third year... He suddenly felt as if several years had been stolen from him.
Twenty-six is not considered old, but when I think about my mentality when I was 22 or 3 years old and faced people who were in their 26s or 7s, I felt that they were older youths and I was still young.
Now that I have reached this age, I still feel young, but I have become the older youth I thought I was a few years ago.
It is too late to have a child at the age of thirty. Now...I don't want to have a child now. Xu Qing suddenly became depressed.
When I think about having a child, I really feel that I am getting older and time waits for no one. It is almost the end of the year, and if I waste another two years, I will have entered my thirties by the time the child is born.
No wonder Qin Hao is anxious... If we delay it for another year, we will get engaged next year, get married the year after that, have a baby the year after that, and the little policeman will also be a thirty-year-old uncle.
Things shouldn't be like this...
Until she and Jiang He returned to where they lived, Xu Qing was still in a daze, feeling that she hadn't had enough fun and that time waited for no one.
"what's on your mind?"
"Who am I, where do I come from, where am I going, and what am I doing?" Xu Qing lay on the sofa, leaning on his arms and looking at the roof lights.
Jiang He stood behind, lying on the back of the sofa, looking down at him, like a bastard with his head peeking out, but he didn't dare to say anything.
"What about wanting to have a baby?"
"Do you want to give birth?" Xu Qing asked.
"When it's time to give birth, give birth. You have to give birth. You have to give birth. Your father will beat you to death, and we are also laughed at, saying that I am a chicken that cannot lay eggs."
"??"
Xu Qing didn't expect Jiang He's thoughts to be so simple.
"Having a child is not just a matter of birth. With the shackles of a family and a child, there are many things to consider in what you want to do in the future. You may not have the energy to try new things. You are as free as you are now..."
"Are you anxious?" Jiang He seemed to have discovered something new.
"Anxiety is a common problem among modern people."
"Then you don't want to give birth?"
"If I don't want to give birth, I won't be anxious." Xu Qing sighed. In the past, she always felt that this matter was still far away, but only when it happened did she realize that she would also panic.
"Don't worry, I will cooperate with you." Jiang He stretched out his paws to cup his head.
"...It's so exciting."
Xu Qing was lazily perfunctory, and whether he cooperated or not, wouldn't you be enjoying it too?
It also opened up the Ren and Du channels.
"How about you go up there?" he asked.
"dream!"
Jiang He turned around and left, ignoring him.
The winter melon jumped over from the table and landed on Xu Qing like a cannonball, causing him to groan. This fat guy has been jumping around without thinking about his weight.
"We still have a lot of things we want to do, but haven't done yet. Life is short, and I suddenly realized that my age is too old..." Xu Qing said while holding the winter melon.
"You are just afraid of having a child, and it is not you who will give birth to me."
Jiang He took out a book from the bookshelf, put it on his knees, and raised his hand to open it.
Xu Qing was silent, and she was happy to read quietly. Anyway, when it was time to give birth, she would give birth. One child, not too many.
If he dared to ask her to give birth to five children like a slut, she would report it to the relevant departments. This guy had more than one child...
It seems that you have also been reported?
Jiang He thought about how to reasonably refuse to have five children. The law seemed to not allow that many children. Although he didn't know why the law still restricted the number of children, five was indeed a bit much.
"Do you understand?"
Xu Qing got up and looked at her. Now Jiang He was getting closer to the path of a literary girl. With her hair down, she looked down at the book on her knees, her index finger gently rubbing the corner of the page. Her whole person exuded a quiet temperament.
He no longer looks like the monkey he once was, unable to sit still when reading a book, with nails growing on the stool.
"You understand, you just turned into a ghost." Jiang He was holding "Ball Lightning" in his hand. He didn't understand it at all, and couldn't understand the technical terms, but he still understood the states described.
If you close your eyes, you can feel that the person is around you, but as soon as you open your eyes and see him, he disappears. Isn't this a ghost?
So this book is about researching weapons that turn people into ghosts. It’s really a good piece of science fiction.
"...That's right."
Xu Qing found that he could not refute.
"Ding Yi shook his head: The quantum state only appears without an observer. Once the observer appears, it collapses into our empirical reality. We will never see the probability cloud..."
