Chapter 67 Just Shy(1/2)

When the dawn rays through the quiet night and the first ray of light in the morning shone on the curtains, Xingye woke up and rubbed his eyebrows slightly and looked at the side. Just like yesterday morning, the seat next to him was empty, but the temperature in the quilt was still there. It should have just woken up. Xingye blamed himself for sleeping so heavily that he didn't even know the people around him got up.

Of course, I still remember that I was going back to see his relatives today, so I paid special attention to my appearance. The beautiful and soft black waterfall was steadily raised. I pinned it with a light red hairpin with a faint red luster, leaving only a twilight bang on my forehead. The royal blue earrings on my left ear were still blooming with a soft blue light. I changed into a black casual women's suit. This way, it did not look as ethereal as usual. The casual style also added a bit of peace to her.

Compared to her crimson, Zhan Beicheng prefers her like this now, so when Xingye opened the door and met him who was carrying two bowls of fragrant lean meat porridge out of the kitchen, a glimmer of admiration flashed happily in his black eyes.

"Take this, if I don't have much time to accompany you on weekdays, you can go out for fun by yourself. The password is our birth month, xxxxxx, which was changed yesterday." Just as Xingye was drinking incense, Zhan Beicheng held a bank card with his fingers and slowly handed it to Xingye. However, a hint of heaviness was settled on his face.

Xingye looked at the card quietly and raised his head quietly. At first, the clear eyes showed a hint of surprise, and then a hint of sad haze. She shook her head gently, as cool as the breeze, but with a soft sound floating in the air, intoxicating and distant.

"No, I'm not short of money, you keep it."

"I will give you the control of the economy. Shouldn't you be happy? It's useless for me to hold this thing. There is no shortage of food and drink in the military region. There will be reimbursement when going out. Go to buy more sets of such clothes in a few days. Wear better clothes and become more energetic." A tone that is determined and undeniable to disobey came, which made Xingye seem to have no reason to refute.

She didn't refuse either. She slowly took the card and put it in her pocket with one hand, "Then I'll keep it for you, you need to tell me again."

"It's up to you. But in a few days, you can change my clothes quickly. I'm dazzled by the crimson redness." Zhan Beicheng said again, and after saying that, he quickly lowered his head and continued to drink his porridge.

In fact, he asked her to try more clothes of other colors, because he found that in the closet, she had very few clothes and mostly crimson red. This woman was so crazy about being red!

"Isn't crimson beautiful? It's very bright..." Xingye raised his eyebrows in surprise and asked indifferently.

"It's good to look good, it's just eye-catching, it's uncomfortable to look at it."

...

Xingye's eyes lowered, his eyes became a little dim, and he spoke in a little disappointed manner, "So you don't like crimson..."

"Wrong! I want to correct this, I don't like it. OK, just wear it if you like it! Drink it quickly, we'll go out for a walk after drinking, and we'll go back in the afternoon to pack up a few sets of changing clothes. I won't go back here tonight." Zhan Beicheng replied righteously.

"Do you need to prepare some gifts?" Xingye asked.

"Prepare gifts? What gifts are prepared? When you go back, you often say in front of your grandparents that Chairman Mao is good and the Communist Party is good. It is the best gift for them!"

Zhan Beicheng's words are true. Old Chief Zhan and Zhengcomman Yu were both people who came from that era. Their idol was Chairman Mao. Although for young people today, they may not have much feelings for this leader, but for the older generation of soldiers, especially Old Chief Zhan and Yu Dan, Chairman Mao and President Zhu are definitely the gods in their hearts.

——

Xingye remembers that it seems that a long time ago, someone said that no matter how beautiful the fireworks are, they are only a moment. She stubbornly refused to believe them. She expected that as long as she could take pictures of the beautiful moment when the fireworks bloomed, it would become eternal. She once thought that if there could be such a story, a story that touched her, she would want to carve it on a big wall, so that everyone passing by would watch it, and then be moved and cry by such a story.

If it weren't for the little hope in her heart, she thought she wouldn't have been stunned by this scene now...

The two rows of street lights on both sides of the clean and spacious cement avenue are covered with bright and beautiful yellow ribbons. Even the branches of the old trees standing next to them are hung with bright yellow ribbons, with some red ribbons in the arms, swaying in the cool and soft spring breeze, singing softly in the breeze.

Xingye raised his head quietly, and his beautiful clear eyes slowly looked like a big tree next to him. The green branches and wind were swaying. The sound of "Sasha" came, as if a kind mother was comforting her child. Suddenly, a yellow ribbon broke free from the branch's hand and flew gently towards Xingye. Xingye raised his hand in surprise, and the yellow ribbon gently lay in the palm of her hand.

"Do you like it?" A low and emotional voice came.

Suddenly, the yellow ribbon in the palm of his hand was pinched by two slender fingers, and Xingye was a little dull.

Zhan Beicheng took the yellow ribbon, lowered his head slightly, tied it to the light red hairpin in the starry night, and tied it into a beautiful bow, reflecting the light light red luster, and the beautiful yellow butterflies seemed to be dancing.

"It was specially prepared to welcome you."

Xingye slowly turned his head and raised his face. Beautiful little waves quickly condensed in her starry eyes. She closed her eyes gently and nodded gently. After a long time, she opened her beautiful eyes. She looked at Zhanbeicheng, which was strong but gentle, with her petals and cherry lips tightly closed. She felt that she didn't know how to speak, and there was a sourness in her heart, as if she was walking alone in the desert with difficulty, and suddenly encountered an oasis with people in despair. What was that feeling?

Xingye never knew before, but now, she finally knows...

Under the dark sky, beautiful ribbons fluttered in the wind, with a faint softness. Xingye felt that his heart suddenly became soft, like a big cotton, and a warm feeling quickly rushed to his heart.

What a silly girl! Zhan Beicheng shook his head helplessly, but there was a hint of softness and doting in his deep eyes. It was so touched like this. It was so easy to satisfy. Then I will move her more from now on.

Thinking of this, he reached out and unbuttoned the yellow ribbon on a street lamp next to him and placed it gently in her hand. His low, powerful but gentle voice sounded, "Go back, otherwise, you will feel embarrassed to see this tree."

As the words fell, Xingye felt his palm warm. He looked down and his fingers were intertwined. Zhan Beicheng had already taken steps forward and pulled her...

There are more and more yellow ribbons, with festive red ribbons, colorful balloons and beautiful colorful flowers neatly lined up on both sides of the road, extending forward along the road. As we walked, when we saw the beautiful and majestic villa, Xingye finally stopped no longer.

She felt that the corners of her eyes seemed a little wet. Something was quickly gathering in her eyes, making her eyes hazy, quietly tilting her face, unable to see clearly his firm but still handsome face...

Did she cry? She thought so, otherwise why would she feel her eyes burning?

The sourness in her heart suddenly surged into her heart like a storm, making her unable to resist, and her body finally trembled. Her beautiful and slender figure turned, and she looked at Zhanbei City with a pair of already hazy star eyes.

"I... feel a little uncomfortable..."

As soon as I finished speaking, I felt warm. I was stunned for a moment, and then I realized that I had been pressed into my arms by someone. My broad and powerful chest was like a large warming stove, and I could instantly resist all the cold outside.

My heart softened, and my bare hands tightly grabbed the collar of Zhan Beicheng's waist. If, if this warmth just appeared in the dream, Xingye hoped that this time would be silent in the dark forever, at least in this way, she would not have to wake up.

Zhan Beicheng didn't say anything, but just tightened the iron arm that was holding her waist slightly, and gently touched her little head with the other hand. In addition to the original softness, the black eyes added a bit of heartache and pity.

I don’t know how long it took to hold him like this until I heard a surprise laugh...

"It's the young master! The young master is back! The old leader, the old lady! The old master, the lady! The young master and the young lady!" The butler who was anxiously waiting in front of the gate for a long time, couldn't help but walk along the road and look at the housekeeper Xie Yuanbao shouted in surprise.

Then, we saw Yu Dan, the old leader Zhan, Zhang Qingwen and Zhan Wuji, and a large number of servants behind us, greeted us.

"Xiaobeicheng! Oh, grandma's good grandson! You are back! Where is grandma's granddaughter-in-law?" The man was still a few steps away, and Yu Dan's loud voice had already come. Xingye leaning against Zhanbeicheng's arms had not yet reacted, and a large group of people were already standing firmly in front of them.

"Grandpa and grandma, parents." Zhan Beicheng called out in a low voice.

"Well! What's wrong?" Old Chief Zhan nodded and responded, looking at Xingye who was pounced on Zhan Beicheng's arms, and asked strangely, "Is it my grandson's wife? Is something happened?"

Zhan Beicheng's black eyes flashed slightly, and a faint softness appeared on his lips, "It's okay, she's just shy!"

As soon as these words were said, everyone immediately burst into laughter. Even Zhang Qingwen, who has always been elegant and dignified, could not help but laugh.

"Okay, say hello to grandparents, mom and dad, huh?" Zhan Beicheng patted Xingye's little head and whispered.

Xingye suddenly felt a moment of nervousness, and pulled Zhan Beicheng's clothes with some anxiety, took a breath, Qingtong quickly returned to calmness, slowly let go of Zhan Beicheng's clothes, and turned his slender figure slowly in the eyes of everyone's hope and joy. The starry eyes were flashing with a faint luster, as clear as the most beautiful snow on the snow mountain, and as holy as the snow lotus in the Tianshan Mountain.

When seeing the old leader Zhan and Yu Dan, Xingye was obviously stunned for a moment, his clear eyes lit up, and a softness suddenly flashed across his face. After a few seconds of silence, he spoke quietly.

"Grandpa, grandma, dad, mom, hello, I'm Xingye."

"Okay! OK! I'm sorry for your child! I'll get home, it's good to get home! Come on, this is grandma's red envelope, take it!" Yu Dan nodded happily, tears were already stained with his smart eyes, and he probably was excited.

Looking at the big red envelope handed over by Yu Dan, Xingye suddenly became a little at a loss. He turned his head, raised his face, and looked at Zhanbeicheng with some help.

"Grandma gives it to you, so hurry up!" Zhan Beicheng reminded.

Only then did Xingye raise his simple hand and receive the big red envelope.

"Thank you, grandma!" Xingye spoke gratefully, and two beautiful red clouds were dyed on his clear and moving little face.

"Come on, this is grandpa's!" Old Chief Zhan also took out a big red envelope from his pocket and handed it to Xingye.

"Thank you grandpa!"

"This is my dad's, come and take it!" Zhan Wuji spoke with a smile.

"Thank you dad!"

"Xingye, this is my mother's, give it to me!" Zhang Qingwen also looked at Xingye with a look of joy.

"Thank you mom!"

"Silly kid! Thank you! Mom didn't see you yesterday. It's a pity. Fortunately, you came back today and felt wronged. Cheng'er didn't understand the truth. Don't blame him. They are all people who stayed in the army and don't know how to pity others. If there is anything in the future, tell your mother that if he bullies you, Mom will never let him go." Zhang Qingwen spoke very emotionally. Before, when she heard Yu Dan talk about Xingye, she was still confused in her heart, but all this disappeared with seeing Xingye herself. Seeing her indifferent eyes, her elegant and beautiful face, and her elegant and quiet temperament vaguely presented on her body, she liked this daughter-in-law from the bottom of her heart.

Xingye looked at Zhang Qingwen with emotion, nodded happily, and felt extremely grateful in his heart, but he could only turn into a voice, "Thank you!"

"Everyone said don't thank you! Come on, this is the butler who thanked Yuanbao." Yu Dan introduced Xingye.

"Hello, young lady!" Butler Xie looked at Xingye happily.

"Hello, Uncle Xie."

"Come on, everyone will come to see your young lady!" Yu Dan shouted to the servants behind him.

"Hello, young lady! Welcome the young lady home!"

"Hello..." Xingye could only reply softly.

"Okay, okay! I've seen it all, so hurry up and go back. The food is ready. I've been waiting for you for a long time. Let's go back to have a meal. Today, my grandmother and your mother cook in person. I don't know what dishes you like, so I just made a few more." Yu Dan took a step forward, gently held Xingye's arm, and pulled her into the door.

"Everything is back! Have a meal!" Old Chief Zhan waved his hand and followed closely behind him.

At this moment, Zhan Beicheng, who had been standing there for a long time, had a hint of relief flashed across his face, and then he followed with firm steps.

In the bright and clean dining room of Zhan’s house.

The old leader Zhan sat on the main seat, Yu Dan on the left, Zhan Wuji on the right, Yu Dan came over to Xingye, Zhan Beicheng on the left, and Zhang Qingwen sat next to Zhan Wuji.

"Come on Xingye, this is braised beef made by grandma. Do you want to try it and see if it suits the taste?" Yu Dan was very enthusiastic about picking up dishes for Xingye.

"This is the steamed carp made by mom, you can try it too." Zhang Qingwen stretched out her chopsticks and put a piece of fish into Xingye's bowl.

"Thank you, I'll do it myself." Xingye was a little at a loss.

"Grandma, Mom! Just let her do it yourself, you are scared by you!" Zhan Beicheng glanced at Xingye's somewhat helpless look and became angry.

"They pick you up and you will eat it! If you don't eat it, you won't eat it. Our family doesn't care about the false gifts. You will eat whatever you usually eat. You will drink it as you usually drink!" As he said that, he added a few more dishes to Xingye's bowl and said in a low voice, "Eat!"

Xingye looked at Zhan Beicheng lightly, then lowered his head and began to pick up the chopsticks on the table...

"By the way, when are you going to hold a wedding? I have received all the certificates, and the wedding should be prepared immediately." The person who spoke was the old leader Zhan.

Hearing this, Zhan Beicheng obviously felt Xingye beside him stunned for a moment.

"There is no time now, and the military region is busy, so let's talk about it later." Zhan Beicheng replied.

As soon as these words came out, the old leader Zhan immediately turned a stern face, "Bastard! I have received all this certificate, so how can I make a wedding ceremony? Do you want those old guys to laugh to death? How many eyes are staring at me, staring at our Zhan family? Also, you tricked someone to the Civil Affairs Bureau at night and didn't even plan to give it to me? You have to do this for me quickly. You don't have to work on this matter, just leave it to us. At that time, I will call your military region. At worst, I can ask them to give you two days off. You will be the groom for me when you come back!"

"Yes! I agree with your grandfather's opinion very much!" Zhan Wuji nodded and agreed, "Cheng'er, this marriage is not a joke, you can't let others down."
