Zhutian: Since I was a child, I have been happy to be a father

On the morning of the second day, after everything was packed up, the group of four set off again.

From the afternoon to noon of the next day, the four of them climbed up Mount Huangshan, watched the sunset and sunrise, visited a number of scenic spots, and took many photos.

There is no need to say much about Chen Tao's attainments in the art of photography. Whether it is light and color, or composition and artistic conception, he has reached the pinnacle.

Zheng Wei and Zhu Xiaobei were both amazed after seeing it.

Ruan Guan blushed a little.

After all, as a person involved, she knew exactly what her boyfriend did with the camera.

Now that she is taking pictures of other girls, she will naturally feel a little awkward.

But I wasn't jealous either.

On the afternoon of the 3rd, after resting, Chen Tao drove straight to Wuyuan.

In later generations, when spring comes, many tourists will come to see the sea of ​​rapeseed flowers.

But the autumn scenery here is actually quite nice and worth enjoying.

However, when the four of them arrived here, it was almost dusk, so they first tasted the local specialties and then went to the hotel to rest.

night.

While Chen Tao was out buying things, Zheng Wei pulled Ruan Guan aside and asked her seriously, like a judge in court:

"Ruan Ruan, did you do anything bad last night? Tell the truth!"

When Ruan Guan heard this, even though the back of her ears had turned red, she still said stubbornly:

"No, I was so tired that I fell asleep as soon as I entered the tent."

Zheng Wei suppressed his laughter, patted Ruan Guan's thigh gently, and asked:
"How come I didn't know that you like to lift your legs after falling asleep? And you lift them so high!"

Did she really see it?!

Ruan Guan was immediately embarrassed, but she didn't want to argue anymore, so she admitted directly:

"Shiyong is so mean, and I can't say no to him, so I can only let him do whatever he wants. You must never tell anyone about this, and you are not allowed to watch it again."

"Don't worry~ Xiaobei and I are very tight-lipped. But, you have to tell me, what exactly does it feel like?"

"This... Weiwei, I really don't know how to say it..."

"Then let me ask you..."

When Chen Tao put the supplementary supplies into the trunk of the car and returned upstairs, Zheng Wei's interrogation of Ruan Guan was over. She just looked at Chen Tao with strange eyes.

As if he were an alien.

How should I put it? Compared with the teachers in the learning materials that Zheng Wei had read, Chen Tao did have some extraordinary strengths.

At a quarter past nine, with the TV program playing in the background, the four of them started playing Monopoly again.

Zheng Wei didn't drink today, so naturally she wouldn't be in a daze and give benefits to Chen Tao.

After playing two games, it was already 11:30 at night.

At Zheng Wei's request, Ruan Guan stayed to accompany her and Zhu Xiaobei.

Chen Tao returned to his room alone.

But at around two o'clock in the morning, seeing that her two best friends were already asleep, Ruan Guan secretly returned to her boyfriend's room.

The next morning, inside the breakfast shop.

Zheng Wei complained: "You are too clingy to Ruan Ruan, aren't you? She was already asleep, but you asked her to go back to accompany you. I really think that Ruan Ruan might become a mother before graduation."

Zhu Xiaobei nodded, obviously agreeing with this view.

Like Zheng Wei, she was a deep fan of learning materials, and they even took notes and learned Japanese together.

On the night of camping, Zheng Wei did not forget to wake her up to watch together.

Ruan Guan looked calm.

That’s right, it was not her fault. She definitely didn’t go to her boyfriend’s room on her own initiative. It’s just that her boyfriend was too clingy to her and couldn’t sleep well without her company.

Chen Tao took a mouthful of rice noodles and said matter-of-factly:
"Becoming a mother early is actually quite good for Ruan Ruan. Of course, I won't let Ruan Ruan use this method of getting married with a baby to force my parents to submit."

Ruan Guan's expression darkened when she heard this.

No matter how you look at it, a battle...and marriage involves two families.

Even if her boyfriend was willing to give up his own parents for her, she couldn't accept it so comfortably.

what can we do about it?

What should she do to make Zhao's mother accept her as her daughter-in-law?
Zheng Wei comforted her: "Ruan Ruan, don't worry, as long as Xiao Yongyong loves you consistently, you will get what you want."

As her best friend, Ruan Guan naturally told her about her current predicament.

And she felt sad.

She couldn't handle Chen Xiaozheng alone. If Chen Xiaozheng's mother was more difficult to deal with than Zhao's mother, then she would be in trouble.

In fact, Chen Xiaozheng's mother is indeed more difficult to deal with than Zhao's mother.

Mother Chen felt that her daughter-in-law had only two choices.

One is a rich girl whose family is so well-off that she can make her son's life smooth and successful;
The second type is a good girl who, although her conditions are not very good, is smart and down-to-earth, and can work hard with her son to build a career or take care of the family, so that her husband has no worries.

In her eyes, Zheng Wei wanted to be held in the palm of a man's hand, which was neither of the two.

Therefore, she would never recognize Zheng Wei.

Chen Tao also comforted her: "Ruan Ruan, trust me, leave everything to me, I won't make it difficult for you. In a sense, the real problem is not with you, but that I want to be independent and get rid of my extremely controlling parents. Even if I hadn't met you, I would not marry the girl she chose. This is a matter of principle."

Ruan Guan hummed and forced a smile on her face so as not to make her boyfriend worry too much.

Zheng Wei couldn't help but ask curiously, "From what you said, does your mother already have a daughter-in-law candidate?"

Ruan Guan became nervous again when she heard this.

After all, her boyfriend had never told her about this.

Actor Chen sighed and was silent for a long while before he smiled bitterly and said:
"That girl is my childhood sweetheart next door. She has always liked me and wanted to marry me. My mother is also obsessed with her and will definitely force me to marry her home. But because of this, I will never marry her, because I don't want my mother to make the decision for me anymore."

Zheng Wei was shocked because she was also Lin Jing's girl next door!

Xiao Yongyong’s sister is another her in the world!
Ruan Guan could not hide her shock and was speechless for a moment.

Zhu Xiaobei asked for her, "You don't want to marry her just because you don't want to be controlled by your mother, not because you don't like her?"

Chen Tao said helplessly, "She is impeccable in every aspect, and I have had a relationship with her for decades. If I say I don't like her, will you believe me? Feelings can't be forced. I like Ruan Ruan more, so I can only disappoint her feelings for me."

Ruan Guan held his hand and said softly:
"Shiyong, I understand you."

She does understand.

After all, she liked the article "Once You Meet Yang Guo, You Will Be Ruined Forever" and knew that her boyfriend's childhood sweetheart had become the Guo Xiang whom she could not be loved by.

But she had no idea that Chen Tao was not the devoted Yang Guo, but Duan Zhengchun, and was even worse than Duan Zhengchun.

After all, this romantic prince really dared to die for love, but the scumbag Chen would definitely not be able to do that.

"Xiao Yongyong, if, if there was no Ruan Ruan, would you marry your childhood sweetheart?"

When asking this question, Zheng Wei's voice trembled a little.

Chen Tao said seriously: "Yes."

Zheng Wei's eyes were red and tears welled up in them.

How long have she and Chen Xiaozheng been together?

How long has she liked her childhood sweetheart, the neighbor brother Lin Jing?
Why is it that other people’s brothers can openly express their love for their childhood sweethearts even in front of their girlfriends, but he just leaves without saying goodbye?

Ruan Guan knew her story and what she was thinking, so she held her hand again and comforted her softly:
"Weiwei, let the past be the past. Don't be sad anymore. You still have Chen Xiaozheng."

Zheng Wei felt better. "Don't worry about me so much! On the contrary, you have to keep an eye on Xiao Yongyong and don't let him be snatched away by your childhood sweetheart."

"No need, I trust him." Ruan Guan's words were not insincere.

Even if she knew that Chen Tao had lied to her, she would pretend to be confused and pretend not to know.

In the original novel, Zhao Shiyong lied a lot.

Moreover, his words were inconsistent and he showed no sincerity at all. Ruan Guan was so smart and knew everything clearly, but she just didn't expose it.

Even if Zheng Wei exposed it, she would still be angry.

In her words, Zhao Shiyong was the first boy she fell in love with, and she hoped he would be the last one, and she would never give up this relationship easily.

"Ruan Ruan, you are so nice. Come, I will feed you."

As he spoke, Chen Tao picked up a tofu-filled bun and handed it to Ruan Guan's lips.

Ruan Guan was not shy and took a small bite under the gaze of her two best friends.

After all, it's just feeding, there's really no need to be shy.

But next time I must be careful not to buy thin tents.

After breakfast, Chen Tao and his party took a short rest and then went to Lizhuang Village.

A little girl whose eyes narrowed into a line like a fox's when she smiled happily accepted Chen Tao's 50 yuan guide fee, and then took the four of them to find the old locust tree.

Her name is Xiang Yuan, and she was the guide Zheng Wei would find later. She just entered junior high school this year.

In the original book, her family had very bad luck.

Not long after Zheng Wei left, her father died unexpectedly. Her mother took her and her sister to the city and never returned.

Xiang Yuan asked curiously: "Brother, among these three sisters, who is your girlfriend?"

Chen Tao smiled and said, "Guess, if you guess correctly, there will be a prize."

Xiang Yuan rolled his eyes, pointed at Ruan Ruan and said:

"It must be Sister Ruan! I've been watching her for a long time, and her eyes have basically never left you."

This girl is so smart!
Chen Tao took out another stack of large bills and handed it to her without counting how much there was.

"..."

Xiang Yuan was shocked, and subconsciously took two steps back, declining:
"Brother, I can't have it!"

Chen Tao explained: "This is not for you to spend recklessly. It is for you to study hard and get into a good university."

Calculating the time, this girl wasn't that competitive after graduating from college.

Even taking the civil service exam will be much easier.

Ruan Guan also advised: "Xiao Yuan, don't refuse. Since you call him brother, it's only natural for him to be nice to you!"

Not only was she not surprised by Chen Tao's generosity, but Zheng Wei and others had also become accustomed to it.

In the middle of last month, each of them received a laptop and a CD player from Chen Tao.

As for Ruan Guan, her bank account had an additional 600,000 yuan.

After hearing Ruan Guan's words, Xiang Yuan hesitated for a while and then accepted it.

She also wants to go to college and become like her three older sisters.

As for her brother, she will definitely repay him in the future.

Twenty minutes later, the group arrived under the old locust tree.

Xiang Yuan introduced with a smile: "This old locust tree is hundreds of years old and has witnessed the love of many people! Brother, as long as you and sister pray sincerely under the tree, you will definitely be together forever and grow old together."

No way!

Zheng Wei already knew that the man her mother fell in love with under the tree when she was sent to work in the countryside here was Lin Jing's father.

If they could really grow old together, how could there be her and Lin Jing?

But even so, Zheng Wei also hopes to come here to pray with Lin Jing or Chen Xiaozheng.

Unfortunately, neither of them came.

The only boy is Xiao Yongyong...

Thinking of this, Zheng Wei couldn't help but touch his mouth, as if there was still someone's taste left on it.

"Pooh, pooh, Zheng Wei! You can't let your imagination run wild, absolutely not!"

No one, including Chen Tao, knew what she was thinking.

Ruan Guan had also heard Zheng Wei talk about her mother's experience, and she didn't think the old locust tree hindered her. After all, whether one can stay together forever depends on the individual.

So she took the initiative to reach out, took her boyfriend's arm, and walked with him to the old locust tree that was beginning to shed its leaves, closed her eyes and prepared to pray.

"Wait a moment!"

Chen Tao stopped him in time, and then said to Zhu Xiaobei:
"Xiaobei, please take a picture of Ruanruan and me!"

Zhu Xiaobei readily agreed.

After a "click", Ruan Guan's favorite photo was born.

In the photo, she closed her eyes, snuggled in her boyfriend's arms, with her hands tightly intertwined and clasped in front of her chest, praying devoutly.

Another gust of autumn wind blew up, and the leaves fluttered in the air, making her exude a kind of divinity.

Even if Zhu Xiaobei is given a hundred times, she still won't be able to take the picture.

"Ruan Ruan is so beautiful~"

Zheng Wei was full of praise.

Only this best friend can make her admit defeat in beauty.

Afterwards, she buried a copy of "Hans Christian Andersen's Fairy Tales", which witnessed her feelings for Lin Jing, under the old tree.

Speaking of which, this book also made Chen Xiaozheng jealous.

When Chen Xiaozheng moved to the new dormitory, he saw this book and borrowed it to read for a while.

This was amazing, I actually saw a photo of Lin Jing and Zheng Wei.

Fortunately, he calmed down and realized that Zheng Wei was not that kind of person, so they reconciled.

Seeing that Zheng Wei had finished burying the books, Chen Tao really wanted to take a look at the wooden dragon that Chen Xiaozheng had given her.

After all, in the original book, she buried these two things together.

But it was not appropriate for Chen Tao to say this.

In the afternoon, Chen Tao and his party returned to the city.

Without waiting for the next day, Chen Tao drove directly to Quzhou.

The roads were not easy to drive on these days, and it was past seven in the evening before they arrived at the local Oriental Hotel and stayed there.

In the next few days, we naturally traveled around Zhijiang Province.

He even returned to Hecheng and visited the Ruan family.

Of course, his adoptive parents and childhood sweetheart were kept in the dark.

I just called him and complained on the Mid-Autumn Festival.

On the afternoon of the 7th, Chen Tao sent the three girls to Jinling, ending the trip.

That night or the following week, Chen Tao did not return to Zhijiang.

It was not until Sister Fu called and said that her son Tian Wenjing missed him that he went back.

At the same time, his childhood sweetheart also called and said she would come to see him on the weekend.

Busy, busy is good! Fulfilling! (End of this chapter)
