Countercurrent 1978 starts with the production team

After finishing the meal, Chu Jianghe was about to put away his bowl, but Liu Yunfang got the better of him.

"Don't move, let me clean up. It's dark outside, and the street lights in the alley are broken. Please give Chunyan a gift."

Chu Jianghe nodded when he heard this and took a flashlight.

"Chunyan, let's go, I'll see you off."

"I'm not a child, so what else do I need to give as a gift? I can just go on my own."

"There are no street lights in the alley. It's so dark, don't touch it. That would be bad. Come on, I'll take you to the entrance of the alley."

Hearing that Chu Jianghe insisted on sending her away, Xu Chunyan did not object anymore. She pushed her bicycle into the courtyard and followed Chu Jianghe into the dark alley by the light of a flashlight.

The distance from the door of Chu Jianghe's house to the entrance of the alley is only a hundred meters, but Xu Chunyan feels that the road would be longer.

Xu Chunyan couldn't help but think of the scene when the two of them were walking on the campus of Peking University last winter, and how Chu Jianghe was wearing cotton-padded clothes and shrinking his neck from the cold, and let out a chuckle. The sound was unusually clear in the quiet alley.

Chu Jianghe shined his flashlight on the road and couldn't see clearly the expression on her face. When he heard her laughter, he asked curiously: "What are you laughing at?"

How could Xu Chunyan tell the truth what she was thinking? She pursed her lips and said, "It's nothing, I just thought of some funny things. Yunfang said that you are quite good at hurting others. I didn't believe it until I saw you today." Performance makes me believe a little bit more.”

Chu Jianghe thought she was thinking of something, but it turned out to be this matter. He was a little complacent: "That's it, if I don't love my own wife, who will?"

Xu Chunyan also smiled with him, but the feeling in her heart became more and more complicated.

Chu Jianghe noticed something strange about her and remembered her expression when eating, so he asked with concern: "You seem to be worried today, what's the matter?"

The smile on Xu Chunyan's face suddenly disappeared, as if she thought of something unpleasant, she said calmly: "Nothing."

Seeing that she didn't want to say anything, Chu Jianghe didn't think much about it, and didn't ask any further questions. He just said oh.

The two of them were speechless for a while, and just walked towards the entrance of the alley.

When they were about to reach the entrance of the alley, Xu Chunyan suddenly said: "Jiang He, do you think people must get married in this life?"

Chu Jianghe was startled when he heard this and didn't know why she had such thoughts.

Using the street lights at the entrance of the alley, I looked at Xu Chunyan's calm face and tried to see clearly what was in her heart, but it was in vain.

Xu Chunyan just looked ahead, not knowing what she was thinking.

Chu Jianghe secretly had a guess in his heart. It must be that Xu Chunyan also encountered marriage problems and was troubled.

In his previous life, he was troubled by the same problem. He was single. Whenever he returned to his hometown, relatives and friends would always ask him: When will I get married?

Chu Jianghe was also disturbed by this, so he still resonated with Xu Chunyan's feelings.

It's just that this question is difficult to answer.

Everyone has their own situation and cannot be generalized.

For some people, things go smoothly emotionally. When they meet the right person, they may reach that point naturally.

Some people's emotional journey is very bumpy. After going round and round, they are exhausted physically and mentally and become a little numb to feelings.

After some people get married, they are harmonious and beautiful, and the two of them respect each other as if they were guests, and they raise their eyebrows to each other.

After some people get married, they make noisy, separate and get together, and their lives are nothing.

……

The thinking of this era was relatively conservative. If you wanted to stand out and do something out of the ordinary, you would be labeled a heretic immediately.

From then on, others will look at you through colored glasses, be criticized by others, and live in the judgment of those around you.

Chu Jianghe thought about it for a while and then said: "Marriage is not a necessity, but a choice. There are many reasons to get married, and there are many reasons not to get married. It depends on how you choose. Anyway, getting married is not necessarily happy, and not getting married is not necessarily unhappy. Happiness. A person’s life may be said to be long or short. Sometimes, when you think about it, many things are just a blur and pass by. There is no need to take it too seriously.”

Xu Chunyan stopped and looked at Chu Jianghe for a while. This move made Chu Jianghe feel terrified.

"What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?"

"If I hadn't known that you are a few years younger than me, I would have thought you were in your seventies. I originally thought that you would persuade me to get married as soon as possible like my family, but I didn't expect you to say these words. I really don't know what you are like. Where ideas come from is different from others.”

Chu Jianghe shook his head and laughed: "Chunyan, we can be considered friends. I treat each other sincerely. How come you have changed my taste?"

Chu Jianghe thought for a while and said sincerely: "Most people are just ordinary people, and they also pursue a mediocre life. Although the present is indispensable, there are also poems and distance, right? The night gave me black eyes, but I use them to find light."

Chu Jianghe quoted a poem by Bei Dao, which meant to tell Xu Chunyan that even if you are in darkness, you must look toward the light.

Hearing Chu Jianghe's words, Xu Chunyan's eyes were full of excitement, but what she said afterwards was full of ridicule: "I don't see it, Comrade Chu Jianghe, you seem to have experienced a lot of emotions."

Chu Jianghe called out to Qu: "Comrade Chunyan, you are a bit unjust."

Xu Chunyan looked him up and down and said, "It's hard to say. Judging from what you said, you're just like a relationship expert. I can't guarantee you're not a playboy."

Chu Jianghe screamed again, but Xu Chunyan saw it, making her giggle.

The two chatted and laughed for a while, and Xu Chunyan was in a much better mood than before.

In fact, Xu Chunyan was originally a carefree person, but she was a little confused for a while. After Chu Jianghe's enlightenment, she also figured it out a lot.

The two of them walked to the entrance of the alley, and there were lights on the road. Xu Chunyan got on her bicycle and said goodbye to Chu Jianghe.

"Thank you, Comrade Chu Jianghe, goodbye."

Chu Jianghe waved to greet her: "Goodbye, please go slower on the road."

Chu Jianghe bid farewell to Xu Chunyan and then returned home.

Early the next morning, Ma Liang heard that Chu Jianghe was looking for him and came to his house before Chu Jianghe went to school.

As soon as he saw Chu Jianghe, he said, "Brother, Master Wu said you were looking for me?"

Chu Jianghe saw that he had messy hair and his face was a little pale, so he knew that he hadn't had a good rest recently.

"What's going on? I heard from Lao Wu that something happened recently. Is it okay with you over there?"

Ma Liang hesitated for a moment, then said: "Brother, it's nothing serious. There's just a group of blind people who want to steal our business. It's okay. I can handle it."

Ma Liang didn't want to embarrass himself in front of Chu Jianghe. If something happened without disturbing him, he wouldn't disturb him.

Brother Chu will definitely do big things in the future. Sooner or later, he will have to be on his own under him. If he can't even deal with this little thing, how can he mess with Brother Chu in the future.

Chu Jianghe looked at him for a while, and seeing that Ma Liang's expression did not change, he sighed: "It's good that you have an idea, but I still have to remind you, safety first, you can't make enough money, don't use too much force. Means to avoid difficulty in ending."

Ma Liang nodded heavily: "Brother, don't worry. I've been with you for so long. I already know what to do. If you can't figure it out, you can take action again."
