hold on to the theory

On Monday, Shan Yaoyao took away the pen from Sheng Shuo's hand during recess, and Sheng Shuo, who was copying class notes but was interrupted, gave her a cold look.

"Did you do something to Zhizhi, and I didn't see you talking to her today?" Shan Yaoyao's words made Sheng Shuo stop rewriting the pen, and she retorted: "Why didn't you say that? What did she do to me?"

Shan Yaoyao swept Sheng Shuo from beginning to end with eyes full of contempt, and kept tsk-tsk: "How can I, Zhizhi dotes on you so much, only because you bullied her and annoyed her, that's why I dare not speak to her." Is it okay?"

The class monitor passing by added a sentence: "That is to say, student Zhizhi is really gentle to Sheng Shuo."

Sheng said that he silently looked at Su Anmo's seat. Although Zhizhi was her deskmate, he didn't pay her much attention today. After class, he went directly to Su Anmo. He didn't know where the two of them were now. talk about something.

What else can we talk about, she, "What's going on today?" Even though Zhizhi took homework and came over to discuss the problem-solving ideas with her under the guise of a pretense, Su Anmo still took her absent-mindedness to heart.

"Well, what?" Zhizhi, who was distracted by things, didn't realize it for a while, but when she saw the constriction in Su Anmo's eyes, she realized it instantly.

"What else, you and her?" Su Anmo secretly pointed to someone who was waiting diagonally across from her. She was really an uneasy child.

Zhizhi rubbed her forehead with a headache, she really couldn't speak out about this matter, should she say that she was ashamed and helpless in the face of Sheng Shuo's molestation?This is really not in line with her indifferent temperament, and she can't explain to herself why when she was sitting in Sheng Shuo's arms, what appeared in her mind was the scene she saw at the prefect that night. The idea of ​​a friend, the rationality based on emotion, can only temporarily wrong Sheng Sheng before she thinks it through.

Nai He Sheng said that she is not someone who dares to do things and is cowardly, and she still has a task to do. As soon as Zhizhi came back, she stood up holding an invitation card, and bent her proud figure towards her. Zhizhi is familiar with this move. Whenever there are major events such as weddings, funerals, and funerals in the big family, invitations will be distributed according to the identities of the guests and people of the corresponding ranks. This is one of the necessary etiquette.

"The 80th of this month is my grandmother's [-]th birthday. I hope you will be there. This is what my grandmother told me to hand over the invitation to you." Sheng said that the reason for being so formal and high-profile is that The purpose is to let Zhi Zhi know how important she is in her heart, and the second purpose is to declare his sovereignty over her.

Her goal has indeed been achieved, not only to let others see the aristocratic style of the family, but also to make her relationship with Zhizhi become a topic of conversation for some people after dinner.

Zhizhi took it thoughtfully, opened the invitation and carefully read it from beginning to end, and then solemnly promised Sheng: "I will go there as scheduled that day." Anyway, she happened to want to meet Sheng Shuo's family Anyway, a meeting on such an occasion seemed more appropriate for her.

On the other side, Su Anmo followed Shan Yaoyao who walked out of the classroom silently amidst the turmoil caused by Sheng Shuo.

"Yao Yao." Su Anmo stopped Shan Yaoyao in a very measured manner when she walked to the school road with few people.

The sadness on Shan Yaoyao's face has not completely faded when she turned her head: "It's you? What's the matter?" Su Anmo has joined their small group of three since school started, but because they didn't get along for a long time , the relationship between them is not familiar.

"Grandma said that I should also invite my friends back for this birthday, but the embarrassment is that I am a newcomer. Apart from talking about He Zhizhi, I only know you, so Yaoyao, you will definitely go, right?" Su Anmo said It was so fast that Shan Yaoyao didn't even have a chance to interrupt, she forced the invitation into her hand as if afraid of being rejected.

Shan Yaoyao didn't do what he thought, and picked up a corner of the invitation card rimmed with gold, with a half-smile: "Okay, I promise you." I just don't know what the people over there will do when they find out. They were suspicious.

There are three provinces and one city in the middle and upper reaches of the south of the Yangtze River. Yirou Province, Huaishan Province, Jiaotong Province, and Weishi City are controlled by major families, and Yu Sheng has ruled a quarter of Yirou Province. , A quarter is not too much, just half a year's economic profit can offset the annual combined economy of the three second-class cities, the former is after tax payment and the latter is before tax payment.

And Yu Zhengsheng, a businessman, draws a circle with Yusheng as the center and three cities as the radius, based on a well-known allusion in Rou. Bearing the name and signboard of the Sheng family.

This time, the birthday of the mistress of the Sheng family is naturally a grand occasion, not to mention the feast for the whole town, the bills of all major restaurants on that day can be sent to the Sheng mansion for settlement, and the identities of the guests are all from the provinces and cities. A character with a head and a face, who is either rich or expensive.

"Zhizhi, I'll pick you up at one o'clock this afternoon." This should be the first time Sheng Shuo, who came on the spot, notified Zhizhi in advance of the specific time when she would come to her house.

"So early?" If Zhizhi remembers correctly, the time marked on the invitation is three o'clock in the afternoon, and people like them have always attached great importance to the concept of time.

"Because I want you to meet your family members before the banquet begins." Different people are treated differently, and Sheng Shuo's heart is definitely biased toward Zhizhi.

"Okay, but Sheng said, are you sure the gift I picked is okay?"

"Believe me, there is really no problem, just treat it as a very ordinary meal with someone." Although Sheng said the comfort was gentle, he still had a bit of a joke: "Zhizhi, you must be nervous, right?" .”

Zhizhi's face became hot after being exposed so bluntly, impulsiveness took precedence over rationality, and she pressed the power off button with a click, and the world was completely quiet now.

Suddenly hearing a piercing busy tone from the other end of the phone, Sheng Shuo moved the phone away from his ear with a blank expression, did he just know that Zhizhi was... shy?

However, the fact is that when Sheng Shuo came to pick up Zhizhi in the afternoon, Zhizhi's expression was as calm as a lake, and there was no panic at all. The occasional flaws that the evildoer who had practiced for thousands of years were just playing with Taoist priests who were still inexperienced. A few days later, Sheng said that when he saw this sentence in a book, he silently closed the pages and put it in the corner of the bookshelf, just to tease her.

——*——*——*——*

Sheng said that he brought Zhizhi in through the back door, walked around the rockery, bypassed the peony garden, passed the tea stand, and met a cool cottage, Sheng said walked in with Zhizhi.

A handsome young man sits next to an old woman, making tea for her respectfully, nodding his head from time to time to echo the old man's chatter.

"Ah Yi, you have been an adult for some time, when will you find me a grandson-in-law?" Sheng Yi is the eldest son of the family, and the old lady Sheng has always cared about his marriage.

Sheng Yi smiled shyly: "Don't worry, grandma, I will definitely marry her next year." He has always been modest and docile, and his actions will always make the elders feel at ease and the younger generation convinced.

"So I have a sweetheart, why don't I see you bring her here this time to show grandma." The old lady Sheng lifted the tea cover, blew away the tea leaves floating on top, and sipped carefully.

Sheng Yi showed an embarrassing expression: "Actually, I am not with her yet, and I am still pursuing her."

The old lady Sheng immediately understood that the Sheng family is a typical elm-headed person who doesn't understand the style. It sounds like restrained, but it's called dull. It's too slow to deal with emotional matters.

"Is it because I want a sister-in-law?" Sheng Shuo's playful tone made the two of them look at each other and smile thoughtfully, full of helplessness and doting.

"Let's talk about it, don't you call me anymore when you see brother?" Old lady Sheng secretly weighed the identity of the girl who was following Sheng Shuo, and Zhizhi seemed to have sensed it, and nodded slightly to her to show her politeness.

Sheng said protestingly retorted: "I was reprimanded by you before I could yell."

Then she pulled Zhizhi to the old lady Sheng and Sheng Yi and introduced, "Grandma, brother, she is Zhizhi." There were no common prefixes like "friend", "classmate", "invited guest".

Turning her head, she pointed at the two of them again and said to Zhizhi, "They are my grandma and brother." While speaking, consciously or unconsciously, she protected Zhizhi behind her.

Sensing Sheng Yi's subtle movements, she narrowed her eyes thoughtfully, and cast her interesting eyes on Zhi Zhi. Sheng Yi looked away.

All this happened in an instant, but the outcome seemed to be decided.

"Tell me, this is the girl you often mentioned to me?" The old lady Sheng kept her expression on the face, but she felt a little fond of this beautiful and quiet girl in her heart. The Sheng family has always inherited the fine tradition of Aiwujiwu. It's very good.

Before Sheng Shuo could speak, Zhizhi took the lead and said, "Grandma, I wish you good health and filial piety."

Zhizhi is very smart, she knows that it is polite and tiresome to talk about long life and so on, but these two sentences are different. What the elderly care about most is actually their physical health and the attitude of their children and grandchildren towards themselves.

Therefore, the old lady Sheng smiled with satisfaction: "Okay, you girl, I like it." The meaningful tone made Zhi Zhi, who had always been indifferent, lower her head quietly and obediently, her face was like a peach blossom.

I can't wait to meet my parents, when is your dowry going to be given?
