Chapter 23 Commitment

===========================

Fu Jiusi sometimes admires women very much, and feels that their minds are really warm and scary. On the one hand, they carry the tenderness of a girl's Huaichun, and even if they look at their sweetheart, they will blush with embarrassment. On the other hand, they have extremely strong courage and dare to quickly Pay with all your heart and leave no room for anything.

In fact, from the perspective of a man, he can't help but worry about them - women, especially some young ladies in their circle, often end up marrying men with the same family background, and the vast majority of such men They won’t marry only one wife; or women from ordinary families, in addition to being exploited by life hardships, also face various injustices from the family and society. Work harder than others.

Over the years like this, the hot love will often cool down, or even worse, turn into a pool of rotten water in the long years, and it will be disgusting after all.

So he felt that a woman should either act on the scene like Kong Qingfang, or she should be alone like Liang Xunhe, or she should treat marriage as an exchange of interests like his sister-in-law, and if she really wants to pursue love, she must have a considerable family background. Support behind her, otherwise she will pass her throat into the hands of others, which will make her worth her life.

He told Sun Yao seriously: "Actually, this time, you can really think about it. If nothing else, you will always have a wife in the future. People like us - I don't mean concubines - can choose a marriage partner. That's it, now it's rare to meet someone who treats you with sincerity, isn't it much better than those blind and dumb political marriages?"

What he said was sincere and very reasonable. Sun Yao also knew that although he had been wandering outside all these years, he was not in control of the marriage. Zuo only had to get married within a year or two, so it was better for him to do it earlier. Set people down to get a head start.

That Song Jingqing has a good-looking family, and has stayed abroad just like him. The two may not have nothing to talk about together. The most important thing is that she treats him with sincerity, as Fu Jiusi said, this is in their place. It is a very rare thing in the circle.

Afterwards, Lu Mincheng left him for lunch. He said that there would be entertainment at noon, but he didn't stay. When he left, he looked more worried than when he came before.

After seeing them off, the two looked at each other, Fu Jiusi smiled, but Lu Mincheng's expression seemed a little strange.

"Jiuye." He called him seriously.

Fu Jiusi was stunned, and subconsciously replied, "Hey."

Lu Min's idiom said earnestly: "What you said to Sun Yao today is not only a consolation to others."

Fu Jiusi was stunned for a moment, but in the next second, he immediately realized what he said.

marry.

There is a big mountain between them, but it can't be turned around.

He immediately became anxious: "Listen to me, I'm not..."

Lu Mincheng interrupted him: "Listen to me first.

"You are still young, and the future is still uncertain. Now that you are with me, you and I are both happy, which is naturally a good thing. But there is one thing that needs to be explained first. If you change your mind one day in the future, you can Don't feel sorry for me, I will give you a big gift on your wedding day."

These remarks pierce the heart, stupid and true.

He knows that their current state has nothing to do with status, fame, power, money, and wealth, and is purely sincere, and it is precisely because he knows the value of this sincerity that he is especially cautious, like a pedestrian holding a candle in the dark night. Keeping one side of the world in hand.

He also knew that with Fu Jiusi's temperament, even if he understood this, he wouldn't take it seriously—he was so fearless, thinking that everyone and everything in the world should suit his will!

That being the case, let him be the villain.

He thought that Fu Jiusi would be angry, or at least quarrel with him, but he didn't expect that he guessed completely wrong.

Fu Jiusi lowered his head and said nothing. After he finished speaking, it took a while before he moved.

He suddenly burst into a smile: "Don't worry, I won't put you in that situation."

With just this one sentence, was speechless.

There is no refutation that you don't believe me, you think I don't have the ability to walk with you, you just wishful thinking that we won't last long.

He just said, don't worry.

In an instant, spring returns to the earth, and in a flash of spring and Jingming, there are some delicate and soft things breaking through the ground, paving a lush love in the heart of a cynical wandering old man.

Lu Mincheng sighed involuntarily, pulled Fu Jiusi into his arms and hugged him, kissed his forehead, ear, cheek, and finally put a solemn kiss on his lips.

The two of them were extremely sticky that day, and Fu Jiusi didn't go to the steamship company. They stayed at home with Lu Mincheng, listening to records and chatting, and felt that everything was happy.

It was not until the evening that he had to go to a particularly important entertainment, and then he had to tear himself off from Lu Mincheng.

He was very irritable: "It's really annoying! There are those people all day long, and they all say the same thing.

Lu Mincheng comforted him: "Isn't that what it is to talk about business?"

Fu Jiusi said again that the group of people might be going to smoke after the meal: "The one surnamed Huang has rheumatism. One time, his hands trembled after drinking, and he dipped the cream on the cigarette stick into the cigarette lamp."

Lu Mincheng warned him: "Ninth brother can't smoke a big cigarette with those people."

Fu Jiusi obeyed obediently, the eyes of the two were intertwined, and the more they wanted to part, the more reluctant they were to part.

Later, it was Lu Mincheng who answered the phone first. While listening to the conversation, he said goodbye to Fu Jiusi with his hands. Fu Jiusi walked backwards in a rumba dance.

Until the phone hung up, the corner of Lu Mincheng's mouth didn't let go.

Since then, Shanghai has entered the rainy season. The weather has been cloudy for nearly a month. It is warm and cold. People who have just taken off their coats put on their clothes again. There are no more bare-armed cheongsam girls on the street. He was also wrapped in a shawl, across the misty rain, like a young man's indistinct dream.

These days, things in Fu Jiusi's shipping company have gradually gotten started, and they are no longer as hectic as they were at the beginning. Although there are still a lot of social events, they have gradually gotten used to it. They have explored a set of speaking skills for him, although they are not very clever. , but it works just fine at the dinner table.

Fu's house has also changed a bit. In the past, the incense in the house was no longer used. It was because Xu Anqi had been unwell since she was pregnant. Every time she smelled the incense, she would feel sick. The flowers in the courtyard are moved into the house, and the fragrance of flowers is always lighter than incense, and it is also a natural fragrance, which is also pleasant to smell.

As a result, the whole Fu's house became a big garden, and when others stepped in, it was as if they had entered the forest of The Wizard of Oz, and Hongdou, the maid serving Xu Anqi, complained to others in private: "There are so many things happening! Hungry, it disturbs people to wake up, but only drink a glass of milk, and those flowers and plants - we are not gardeners, how can we tell the difference, if one day we don't pay attention to raising it, just watch it My fault!"

Fu Jiusi didn't know anything about such things. He was happy that there were so many flowers in the house. He didn't like incense at all, and he usually brought a sachet with some Chinese herbal medicines. They still have to be exiled with incense, and now this change is what he wants.

Xu Anqi was pregnant, so she was extra vigilant because it was her first child, so she failed to socialize and so on.

She first took aim at Fu Wuyou, knowing that this younger sister has a high-pitched and eccentric temperament, and is rarely seen by others, and because she was divorced at the beginning of the year, it was a shameless experience, so she carefully selected a few wealthy children to help her introduce her.

Fu Wuyou listened quietly without interrupting her words, so she thought she had a show, so she talked more and more, complimenting people better and better, and in the end, she almost "would love to meet when I was not married" It meant that, when he noticed something was wrong, he suddenly stopped, looked at Fu Wuyou and said softly again, "Vanny, you have to know that I really care for you."

Fu Wuyou smiled lightly: "Thank you, sister-in-law, but please don't worry about me."

Although his tone was light, his eyes were empty, as if he had not seen her at all.

As soon as Xu Anqi ate this closed door soup, her stomach swelled suddenly, she hurriedly covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief smoked with wormwood, and took a few deep breaths, then she recovered and left with a grudge.

She didn't give up and shifted her target to Fu Jiusi again.

To say that this little brother-in-law looks completely different from the sister-in-law. She plays outside all year round. Although she is not used to it and occupies the identity of the elder sister-in-law, it is not good to be separated by a layer of male and female defense. Overpassed Fu Junshou and went to too much discipline.

But marriage is different. Now that the grandfather and wife of the Fu family are gone, she and Fu Junshou and his wife are going to arrange the marriage of the following two people anyway. As the so-called "the words of the parents, the order of the matchmaker", it is not beyond the bounds of her to perform this duty on her behalf.

"Vince," she began softly, "it's been a while since you've returned to China. I'm really happy for your brother to see that you're working hard in the company now."

Fu Jiusi was praised for no reason, and answered inexplicably, "My sister-in-law has seen the outside world. Now that I have reached the age to save trouble, I should share some of the burden for my eldest brother."

Xu Anqi nodded with satisfaction, and looked at him with sincerity: "It's a good thing that you know how to do business now, it proves that you are mature."

After talking, she stared straight into his eyes, which made Fu Jiusi have a hunch about what she said next. Sure enough, Xu Anqi immediately replied, "I think maybe you can make an official girlfriend as soon as possible now."

Fu Jiusi was silent for a moment, then smiled: "Sister-in-law is right, but you don't have to worry about me, I don't think I'm old enough to get married."

Fu Jiusi is 21 this year, and he said that it is not a big deal. Many people are still in college at this age.

campus

Li studied and said that he was not too young. Today's law stipulates that men only need to be 18 years old to get married.

give birth

There are not a few people who go to study and do business afterward.

After what happened to Fu Wuyou, Xu Anqi became more composure now, she wasn't angry when he said that, she just smiled and asked, "Don't blame me for being so heartless - a young master who thinks of you, must haveMany young ladies love you secretly, if you don't want to tell me who she is, just tell me if there really is such a person who makes you want to be together forever."

This time, Fu Jiusi was silent for a long time, Xu Anqi's eyes lit up, and she secretly thought that there might be drama this time, but she didn't show it on her face, she just waited for him to speak.

After a long time, Fu Jiusi looked into her eyes and said solemnly, "Yes, there is such a person who makes me want to join hands for a lifetime."
