Except for those who couldn't spare time, a total of seven people attended this gathering, and Chen Lu was also among the invited ones.
Zhao Jianghong brought his newly married wife back to Zhao's house, Lu Yan took his wife and children to Jiaodao, and went to the hospital to make a fuss... The whole process made Chen Lu amazed.
She happens to be a person who likes to watch the excitement, and recently she called her good brother Zhou Wei several times to share her new news.
"Sister, can you bring outsiders to this party? I also want to go over and see if Qin Rou is there? I'm not talking about another Qin Rou, but the daughter-in-law of Chief of Staff Lu Yanlu, Qin Rou, We used to be in an art troupe, and we lived in the same dormitory..." Tang Ruibai wanted to prepare for her wedding, so she recently asked for leave and went back to Jiaodao. When she accidentally learned that Chen Lu and the others were going to have a party, and Qin Rou would also attend, she couldn't help thinking Going to grab a meal and meet the "old sisters" of the year.
Qin Rou went to Qiongzhou Island with the army when she got married, and four years passed in a flash. They haven't met, and haven't passed letters. Qin Rou sent back a few pictures of the scenery, saying that she had a good time on the island.
People in the art troupe murmured in their hearts, wondering if she was doing well, but she was already a leaver. Newcomers joined the art troupe every year, and the replacement was quick, so the old people in the past were naturally forgotten.
"You want to meet old friends, okay, let's go there together, don't pay attention to so many things."
"Okay, I'm getting married. I have to tell her about this happy event. After all, it's the friendship in the same dormitory. Why don't we meet when I have a chance? I'll bring her some wedding candy."
…
Tang Ruibai talked with Chen Lu for a while, and learned about Zhao Jianghong and Qin Rou, Lu Yan and Qin Rou, and a bunch of things about Zhao Jianghong and Ye Mingxiu.
"I just said it was a misunderstanding." It was Tang Ruibai who told Qin Rou at the beginning that Lu Yan married her because of "Qin Rou", and she inquired about these pretentious words from Chen Lu.
In fact, Tang Ruibai didn't even believe it herself, after all, who would look for someone with the same name and surname as a substitute? In ancient novels, it is necessary to find someone with the same body shape and face, and only someone with a mental illness will find someone with the same homophonic name. Isn't that funny
Only her distant cousin Chen Lu could come up with some weird things.
"Qin Rou gave birth to a pair of twin boys? They look exactly the same? Her husband is married? Hey, she has a really good life after marriage."
Chen Lu has heard a lot about Qin Rou and Qin Rou, and is curious about what kind of person Qin Rou is: "The Qin Rou I heard from Zhou Wei is different from the Qin Rou you mentioned, don't you say she is a little pepper?" ?”
"Being reserved in front of the person you like."
After talking about the object now, Tang Ruibai understands Qin Rou's change very well. Now that she talks about the object, it is different in front of the object and in front of other people.
"Sister Chen Lu, when you meet a man, you put away your toughness and become reserved, then you will have a show."
Chen Lu laughed noncommittally, "Sister is like this, she is like this in front of everyone."
"Tsk tsk, it's different for you to talk to."
On the day of the party, Tang Ruibai and Chen Lu rushed to the restaurant early. Under the guidance of the waiter, several people were already seated at a big round table, and Chen Lu introduced her friends.
Except for Chen Lu, these people are all men, and the most eye-catching one is the man sitting directly opposite Tang Ruibai. His appearance is outstanding among the men in their thirties. Hanging down, and his upright figure, sitting there meticulously, looks very elite.
According to her cousin's introduction, his name is Gu Cheng, he is twenty-eight years old, and he is a vice-regiment of the navy.
"I didn't expect you, Gu Cheng, to come over this time."
Gu Cheng just nodded lightly, and didn't talk to the people around him. He came to see Lu Yan today. He and Lu Yan have been rivals since childhood, and they can't help but compete. Of course, most of the time it is Gu Cheng unilaterally competed.
He is about the same age as Lu Yan, but the sad thing is that he is really younger than Lu Yan. Among the children in the compound, Lu Yan has the most confidence in front of him, and insists on calling him "brother".
"You are just a brother."
"Brother Lu."
…
Gu Cheng and Lu Yan are old enemies, and they have always wanted to overwhelm him. Both of them went to the Naval Academy and graduated as the Navy. One day, he could look down at Lu Yan from a high position: "You are the younger brother."
In the years of 2455, the two were forced by their family to date and marry their partner at the same time. Gu Cheng devoted himself to his career and resisted the family's urging marriage. As for Lu Yan, this soft-boned, he was 25 years old. He got married at a young age and was defeated by his family's urging to marry him. Because of this matter, Gu Cheng laughed at him behind his back many times.
It's hard for married men, especially those who are on the boat, they have less time to go home, and after having a wife and daughter-in-law, they still have to be scolded, and the mother-in-law, daughter-in-law and sister-in-law at home have a lot of trouble, and there are a bunch of children with runny noses...
Gu Cheng has been to the homes of several old team leaders, so he has no interest in getting married.
A man's career is the most important thing, Gu Cheng put all his energy into the promotion, thinking about overtaking Lu Yan, thinking that he was held up by his family, maybe he would not want to make progress, but he didn't expect this guy to have a lot of shit luck, go On that broken island, you can still pick up battle exploits.
When the South China Sea War ended last year, many people were promoted, and several positions were vacated. Lu Yan was directly promoted to be the captain of the regiment, and Gu Cheng had not made it to the regiment, so he let this man jump up. But it didn't kill him.
Gu Cheng's family used this to educate him: "Do you know why Lu Yan is promoted so fast? It's because he married a good wife, a daughter-in-law who is prosperous!"
"Look at you, why aren't you married yet?"
"I heard that Lu Yan married a little chili pepper. Our family will help you choose a little chili pepper. The chili pepper is so good and booming. During the Chinese New Year, we will make a few bunches of chili peppers and hang them on the door..."
Gu Cheng: "...%￥#￥@#."
South China Sea needs to strengthen its defenses, and this is also an opportunity. Gu Cheng took the initiative to apply for transfer to South China Sea, and then he had to see with his own eyes how prosperous Lu Yan's life was.
Who knew that he hadn't been transferred yet, Zhao Jianghong invited guests to a party, saying that he was married, a small gathering among old friends, Gu Cheng originally didn't want to come, but when he heard that Lu Yan was coming, he agreed to come.
When he came over, he found that all the old friends present, except him, were all married.
Of course, it was limited to men, and there was another woman, Chen Lu, who was also unmarried.
Someone even joked at the table: "This time you will be alone, why don't you two get together?"
Both Gu Cheng and Chen Lu ignored their teasing.
"Lu Yan is here."
"He also brought two children. His son is already this old?"
"Hey, these two kids look just like him."
Tang Ruibai looked back, just in time to see a family of four walking towards their table, the first thing she noticed was not other people, but her former bedmate, Qin Rou.
I haven't seen each other for so many years. The other party seems to have changed, and it seems that she hasn't changed. She is still as beautiful, even more beautiful than before. The skin on her face is smooth and fair, and her eyes are bright. Many men's eyes stayed on her.
As soon as Lu Yan and the others came over, someone immediately said, "Lu Yan, this daughter-in-law you are looking for is really beautiful."
Lu Yan smiled, found a seat, and opened a chair for his wife: "Who made Lu brother my eyesight."
"It looks better than the pillars of the art troupe."
Tang Ruibai said: "It used to be from our art troupe."
Qin Rou followed Lu Yan to greet the people at the table. At this time, everyone at the table was all looking at their family, not only looking at her, but also paying attention to the two children Zhou Zhou and Jiaozi.
"Do these two children really look alike?"
"Which one is bigger? Which one is smaller?"
…
Lu Yan hugged the two babies, and went to talk about the children with this group of married men. Gu Cheng listened to them talking, but felt so boring that he couldn't get in the conversation.
He only looked at the little boy in Lu Yan's arms. The two boys looked very similar to Lu Yan. One of them, when he laughed silly, called him, "Uncle Gu."
Being called uncle by a child who looks like Lu Yan, Gu Cheng found himself inexplicably comfortable.
He couldn't help teasing the child: "Call me good uncle again."
"Gu Cheng, do you know how to tease children?"
…
Qin Rou was talking to Tang Ruibai, and Tang Ruibai was very excited to see her, "Qin Rou, I didn't expect to see you, your children are already so old, you gave birth to twins, what a blessing."
"And you, how have you been all these years?"
Four years have passed, and the feelings and memories of the past have begun to recede, and the good and bad of the past have been abandoned in the depths of memory.
Seeing old people is always a bit exciting.
"Have a good time, Qin Rou, I'm getting married too!"
"congratulations… "
Tang Ruibai used to be jealous of Qin Rou in private, for her beauty, for her good voice, and for marrying a good partner... However, that was a long time ago.
She even forgot that she had ever felt jealous towards Qin Rou. After all, you would be jealous of a colleague who gets along day and night, but not someone who is far away in the sky.
"What object did you find?" Qin Rou chatted with her, asking casually, she also wanted to know from Tang Ruibai how the members of the art troupe were doing now.
Tang Ruibai smiled shyly, "It's Lin Changyan."
Qin Rou was stunned: "Lin Changyan? Reporter Lin?"
"Yes, it's him." Seeing Qin Rou's surprised expression, Tang Ruibai was very proud. She didn't expect that she could be with Reporter Lin.
Qin Rou: "..."
Since she went on a blind date, got married, and left, what happened in the art troupe? She, a cannon fodder and a coquettish female supporting role, ran away with the background board. As a result, Lin Changyan, the heroine of the original book, and Tang Ruibai, the female supporting role of the original book, were together.
—What about Xue Tingting, the heroine
Qin Rou hadn't thought of someone like Xue Tingting for a long time. After all, the world is far and wide, no matter how good her heroine aura is, she can't cross thousands of mountains and rivers to find trouble in front of her.
Liao Tingting was so obsessed with Lin Minghui for so many years, she transmigrated into the heroine of her own writing, why wasn't she with the heroine Lin Changyan
Qin Rou couldn't help asking, "Where's Xue Tingting?"
"You also think that Xue Tingting was having an affair with Reporter Lin, right? The two of them did have a lot in common at that time. I thought they would be together, but then..."
Tang Ruibai edited the words: "Reporter Lin thinks that he and Xue Tingting are not suitable. Xue Tingting also told Changyan that we will be friends in the future. As for Changyan and I... that has to be after you left. Changyan seems to be very curious about you and knows I have a lot of information, so come and ask me, if you come and go, we will see each other."
"You also know that I'm an inquisitor, I think I'm the best match for the profession of reporter!! I and Changyan can complement each other!"
Qin Rou: "..."
Xue Tingting really gave up the hero Lin Changyan, is it because she loves the real Lin Minghui deeply? Think Lin Changyan is not the Lin Minghui she likes in reality after all
—What kind of bizarre plot is this.
She wrote the man she liked in reality as the hero, and now she is in the book, only to find that the hero in the book is the hero in the book after all, not the man she loves in reality.
And Tang Ruibai got the script of a passer-by female supporting role? She is with the hero in the book.
"Speaking of which, Qin Rou, I still have to thank you, you are the great matchmaker between Chang Yan and me!!"
At first, when Lin Changyan came to ask her about Qin Rou, Tang Ruibai didn't take it seriously. Later, after the two got together, she was jealous of Xue Tingting, but not of Qin Rou's. Instead, she was very grateful to Qin Rou and felt that she was her own. Matchmaker with object.
After all, Lin Changyan didn't say a few words to Qin Rou. She got married and left long ago, so where did she get the flying vinegar for her to eat.
"That's why I came here specially to thank you today. Thank you, Comrade Qin Rou. I was a little sorry before. Please bear with me." Tang Ruibai thanked her.
Qin Rou: "..."
Zhao Jianghong, who was on the side, couldn't help being stunned when he heard what they said. He looked at Lu Yan with a strange expression again.
He whispered to Lu Yan: "You two, what do you call them? Are you that kind of gold medal iceman?"
Iceman refers to a matchmaker in old times.
Lu Yan: "Get out!"
"Brother Lu, there are children here, please speak civilized."
Qin Rou continued to chat with Tang Ruibai: "Are you and Lin Changyan going to get married?"
"Yeah." Tang Ruibai nodded.
"What about Xue Tingting and the others?"
"Actually, I don't want to talk about Xue Tingting at all. At first, she said she wanted to be friends with Lin Changyan. Later, when I was talking with Lin Changyan, she actually said that I robbed her man. Bah-oh, forget it, I don't blame her Women like them are a bit weird..." Tang Ruibai moved closer to Qin Rou, and said in a low voice, "It's like Zhao Jianghong's ex-wife, who has the same name as you, didn't she also despise Zhao Jianghong at first, but ended up divorced. Marriage, she is going to marry another person, and she is making a fuss again."
"This is when you don't know how to cherish when you have it, and you give up the opportunity to others. Who can blame it? This is two people who are destined to have nothing to do with each other."
"Xue Tingting is also quite pitiful."
Qin Rou asked: "... how to say?"
"Qin Rou, you don't know that Xue Tingting has a lot of weird relatives in her family. It seems that there is no normal person in her family. They often come to her to make trouble..."
Qin Rou: "..."
There is no need for Tang Ruibai to elaborate, Qin Rou understands on her own, after all, the original book is from this era, it is estimated that the "author" has arranged wave after wave of top-notch relatives for the heroine, and wants to suck the blood of the heroine. It's as if the best is out of his mind, and he wants to follow her forever.
