The snow was falling harder at this time, the snowflakes were fluttering down, the sound of the wind was getting louder and louder, the fluffy snow fell on the army green coat, crystal clear.
Zhan Aiping and the man in front of them stared at each other, one thinking, "What's the point of calling each other brothers? The point is to fight," and the other thinking, "After I was reborn, do I really have to marry this thing?"
Neither of them spoke.
They were very close to each other, and the position where Zhan Aiping was standing shielded Gu Sheng from the cold wind. When the wind blew next to him, there was an inexplicable slight warmth, and an unexpected cold fragrance.
Gu Sheng noticed Zhan Aiping's face and was stunned.
He and Zhan Aiping grew up together and were very familiar with each other, but he had never seen her with long hair. This "buddy" no longer had neat short hair, but had a braid that fell on his shoulders.
Unlike when she had short hair, her entire face was exposed, with a full and beautiful forehead, a small oval face, and a delicate nose. Although her face was still that stubborn and stinky face, her skin was white and delicate, and if you looked closely you could see the tiny hairs on her face.
Her skin was very white, and her cheeks were as if rouge was applied, with an alluring peach-like pink hue.
I don’t know what she applied, but there was a hint of fragrance on her body.
Gu Sheng raised his hand and touched his nose in some surprise.
"Did you hear what I said to her just now?" Zhan Aiping stopped talking to him. Seeing Gu Sheng standing in this position, she guessed that he must have overheard something.
Gu Sheng was honest: "I heard it."
Zhan Aiping: “…”
Zhan Aiping had a headache. She didn't know how to face the 25-year-old Gu Sheng. In fact, she was not very open-minded in terms of feelings. He Mingzhang had been coaxing and deceiving her for a while. Zhan Aiping felt that he was a gentle and considerate man. In that era, they would just get together if they felt it was suitable. It was not true that they loved each other to death. She didn't like those romantic things.
Later, she got together with Gu Sheng. They were both of that age, just an old couple accompanying each other, living their lives with the comfort of each other, and there was nothing dramatic about it.
In the words of the future, she is probably a straight woman who speaks directly.
There is really no such thing as euphemism or foreshadowing. Compared with other roundabout ways, Zhan Aiping prefers to play the straight ball.
"Hey!" Zhan Aiping called him and said bluntly, "Gu Laowu, do you want to marry me?"
Gu Sheng's mouth twitched: "..."
"Is it because I got kicked in the head by a donkey that I married you?"
Zhan Aiping: “…”
In fact, this is true.
Just now she recalled a lot of things from the past, and even she herself felt that marrying the 25-year-old Gu Sheng was like being kicked in the head by a donkey.
This bastard let his dog bite her when she was a child.
She also broke his head... and knocked out his front teeth when they were growing.
With all the grievances of the past, two people in their seventies and eighties can take life and death lightly and look down on the past, but that doesn’t mean two young people in their twenties can do the same.
After being reborn, does she really want to marry the young Gu Sheng
Zhan Aiping hesitated.
The old partner who treated her well was not the young Gu Sheng. They were one person and not one person. If they met at the wrong time, could they have achieved good results
Maybe the young Gu Sheng was a non-marriageist. He didn't get married when he was young, and only got married to her for the first time at the age of 60. Otherwise, this time, she should wait until she is 60 before they get married
—After being reborn, do you still want to hang yourself on a tree
Zhan Aiping closed her eyes. She didn't know what choice to make. She planned to leave the choice to Gu Sheng. She stared into Gu Sheng's eyes and said seriously: "Gu Sheng, you owe me a favor."
If Gu Sheng agrees, they will get married.
It doesn’t matter if he doesn’t agree. At worst, the two of them will be alone for the rest of their lives again.
Gu Sheng stared into her eyes, his voice became deeper: "Are you serious?"
Zhan Aiping nodded: "If you marry me, I will marry you."
Gu Sheng sneered: "If you dare to marry, I will marry you."
Zhan Aiping was stunned.
"But I have three requests." Gu Sheng thought quickly, and he was also a straightforward person: "First, we must be a real couple."
"I accept."
"Second, no divorce within three years."
"OK."
"Third, you have to follow me to the garrison. My garrison is in Yunnan Province. You have to think it through."
"Okay, I agree to everything." Zhan Aiping breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Gu Sheng did not make any strange requests. Going to Yunnan Province with the army, her brother was there, which was just what she wanted.
"Oh, and there's something else. Let's make it clear first. Let's just live together. There's no need for a bride price. I won't hand over my salary, and I won't take those weird photos." Gu Sheng thought about it and found that getting married had its advantages. He could have a house in the base, and at least he wouldn't have to squeeze into the dormitory. It would also be convenient to eat in the staff quarters in the future, and there were several sisters-in-law who cooked delicious food.
Zhan Aiping didn't even raise her eyelids: "It's up to you."
She is not short of money, she has her own salary, and she doesn't want to take any photos to show her love.
The old man Gu Sheng does have a little hobby in this regard. He took a picture of their backs and posted it online, saying that this was an example of "staying together until old age."
What about being childhood sweethearts together until old age, and forcing her to pose.
How shameless.
"In front of outsiders, you have to give me face and do all the housework."
Zhan Aiping: “…” This bastard is getting too arrogant
"What? You don't agree?" Gu Sheng was really excited at this time. He was afraid that Zhan Aiping would regret it. Gu Sheng also felt that he was asking too much. He added: "You know, I'm busy with work. Getting married is just to have a place to sleep. There's nothing for you to do. Just help me wash my clothes."
"Okay." Zhan Aiping agreed, but she also had a request: "Since we both served in the military, why don't we follow the military regulations at home."
Gu Sheng had a wooden face: "…" Then what's the difference between going home and going back to the dormitory? Do I sleep with my comrades
Zhan Aiping thought that if the house was arranged according to the requirements of "simple and tidy", there would be no housework to do. She did not plan to have more children. It would be enough to have one child with Gu Sheng. If the child was managed in a military style from an early age, his autonomy should be very high and it would save trouble.
"Okay." Gu Sheng frowned and agreed reluctantly.
"Oh, right." Gu Sheng remembered something and said firmly, "I won't eat anything you cook. I won't eat a grain of rice or a dish you cook. You don't have to prepare food for me."
Zhan Aiping raised her eyebrows: "Okay."
She hoped Gu Sheng could remember what she said today. That old man Gu wanted to eat what she cooked every day, and he would go on a hunger strike if she didn't let him eat. Humph... If you have the guts, then be strong and unyielding.
"If you want me to bring you food from the cafeteria, I can help you—"
Zhan Aiping said: "No need, I will cook for myself."
Gu Sheng: "Then you should be careful and take it easy when you go to the hospital. There are many people who get poisoned by eating mushrooms there. Don't let them see you one day."
There is no doubt that the food this woman cooks will smell like medicine.
Zhan Aiping: "Don't bother with that."
Aren’t you, Gu Sheng, the one who loves to eat wild mushrooms the most
"Then it's settled."
"good."
The two decided on the marriage after just a few words. They were both straightforward people. They raised their hands and high-fived three times, promising that they would never regret it.
"Whoever regrets first is a dog."
Zhan Aiping smiled: "It definitely won't be me."
Gu Sheng smiled provocatively: "It's even less likely to be me. If you feel bad, don't go complain to those sisters-in-law."
Zhan Aiping was too lazy to pay attention to him. She changed the subject and said, "I've already told you the time and place. It's a state-owned restaurant. My family and colleagues are all here. We're in need of a groom for the wedding banquet. Remember to dress nicely and give me face."
"Don't worry, I'll do it." Gu Sheng put his arm around Zhan Aiping's shoulders in a friendly manner: "Ping - although we are about to establish a marriage relationship, I'd better call you by your full name. I can't call you by anything else."
"As you wish, I'll call you Gu Sheng, too."
"Zhan Aiping, that man has wronged you. If you still feel unsatisfied, I can help you beat him up. I won't leave any marks."
Zhan Aiping glanced at him sideways and was speechless, but she felt inexplicably warm in her heart. In fact, Gu Sheng was a very loyal brother.
If it weren't for that incident when they were young, she could have been a good brother, good friend, and good partner to him.
Well, it’s been so many years, it’s all just a passing cloud, I won’t bother with it anymore.
Zhan Aiping raised her hand, signaling Gu Sheng to lower his shoulders. She took the initiative to put her hand on Gu Sheng's shoulder, and the two patted each other in a friendly manner:
"Thanks, bro. No thanks."
Gu Sheng's words before did remind her that it was a little hard for her to accept falling in love and becoming a husband and wife with Gu Sheng, who was in his twenties. After being reborn, it would be better for her to start by being close friends.
Gu Sheng: “…”
Who wants to be your brother
