Chapter 8 Chapter VII

Wednesday, February 4, 2009, the beginning of spring, the first day of June 9th, the tenth day of the first lunar month. It is suitable to meet relatives and friends, ask for an heir, get a haircut, hunt, consecrate and get a haircut. Avoid opening the market, breaking ground, burial, and breaking ground. Qiu Fei and Zhou Zhou went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to register their marriage with their ID cards, household registration books, and photos. The sun was shining brightly in the morning, and the sky was already warm. After getting out of the taxi, the two walked towards the Civil Affairs Bureau hand in hand.

Qiu Fei's phone rang, and it was Yang Yang calling. Yang Yang said urgently: "Where is it?" Qiu Fei glanced at Zhou Zhou and said, "At the gate of the Civil Affairs Bureau." Yang Yang said, "What did you do there?" Qiu Fei said: "Nonsense, let's get a certificate. The Civil Affairs Bureau doesn't sell breakfast." Yang Yang was a little surprised, "With whom?" Qiu Fei put his arms around Zhou Zhou, "Who else can I talk to, and what can I do for you?" Yang Yang said, "When can I finish receiving it?" Qiu Fei said: "Go in, register, stamp, pay the money, get the certificate on the spot, and that's it."

Yang Yang said: "Have you received the certificate and returned to the honeymoon?" Qiu Fei said: "No more honey for now, it's freezing everywhere in the cold weather, let's talk about spring, what's the matter?" Yang Yang said: "Can you fly to Nanning in the afternoon, and sign a contract with there. I'm at Shenyang Airport, and the flight was canceled due to heavy fog." Qiu Fei thought for a while and said, "I'll call you later, I'll ask Zhou Zhou." Qiu Fei hung up the phone and told Zhou Zhou. Before Zhou Zhou could express his opinion, Yang Yang called again.

Yang Yang is very urgent. "You'd better take a flight in the afternoon and come back in the evening after signing the contract. It doesn't matter whether the air ticket is discounted or not. They promised to sign today. I'm afraid there will be long nights and dreams. If you pass this village, there will be no such shop." Zhou Zhou heard Yang Yang's words on the phone and said, "Then you go, anyway, it will be finished in a while. You can come back at night." Yang Yang heard Zhou Zhou's words, and shouted on the phone: "Student Zhou Zhou, you are so kind, I will give you a big red envelope later!"

Qiu Fei and Zhou Zhou entered the Civil Affairs Bureau. In the huge room, there were only a few staff sitting behind the table chatting. Before Qiu Fei and Zhou Zhou approached, a middle-aged woman behind the computer said, "I can't do it now, the computer is broken." Qiu Fei asked: "When will it be better?" The middle-aged woman said: "I don't know, I have to wait for someone to come and fix it." Qiu Fei glanced at the computer, the middle-aged woman was playing a card game, "Is the computer not working well?" The middle-aged woman said: "I can't connect to the Internet. I can't register. It's useless for me to register. The country doesn't recognize it."

Qiu Fei said, "I know how to fix it, and I'll take a look for you." The middle-aged woman said: "Our computers are not allowed to be touched by outsiders. They are full of data and are repaired by special personnel." Qiu Fei said, "When will we have to wait?" The middle-aged woman said: "It's hard to say, why don't you come and have a look in the afternoon." Qiu Fei glanced at his watch, at a quarter past nine, he decided to wait. Qiu Fei and Zhou Zhou sat on chairs.They held hands and looked at the door, hoping that the person who repaired the network would come in quickly.

One after another, registered couples came in and got the same answer.They were all disappointed. Some were in a hurry to go to work and left, while others sat down and waited. Finally, the person who repaired it came, and after tinkering with it for a while, he regretfully told everyone: "Let's go to lunch first. If everything goes well, it will be finished at two o'clock in the afternoon." Someone was dissatisfied and said, "Why did you go so early? Why didn't you take precautions. Both of us came here on leave, and we have to go back to work in the afternoon. If I can't register in the morning, I will complain to you."

Middle-aged women have experienced this kind of thing a lot, and they can handle it freely, "You can go to complain, and we would like to register you earlier, but some things are not predictable, there are water and glasses over there, you have to be willing to wait, Drink some water and wait, if you don’t want to leave a phone call, we will notify you in time when it is repaired, is it useful for you to scold, the internet shouldn’t be good, isn’t it?” Qiu Fei glanced at his watch, it was eleven o'clock. Zhou Zhou said: "Otherwise, you should go to the airport first, and we will come back another day."

Qiu Fei said: "Then what should you do if your mother is angry, she chose today." Zhou Zhou said: "Not only today is a good day in a year, even if you wait, you won't be able to fix it after work, so you won't be able to register." "Alright then!" Qiu Fei kissed Zhou Zhou, and went to the airport alone. That night, when Qiu Fei rushed back, it was past twelve o'clock at night, and Zhou Zhou was still awake, waiting for him. Qiu Fei asked: "Your mother didn't say anything, did she?" Zhou Zhou said: "My mother picked another date for us, February 18th, next Wednesday, and said it would be better than today's day."

In the past six months, Yang Yang earned some money and bought a car, the JEEP Compass.In the first few days after I bought it, I took Ding Xiaole out for a drive every night, first going around the second ring, then around the third, and then around the fourth, and when the fifth ring was also finished, Yang Yang felt It's boring, so I won't take Ding Xiaole with me, Ding Xiaole insists on following, Yang Yang said: "I'm going out for a fast car, it's dangerous." Ding Xiaole opened his arms to prevent Yang Yang from going, Yang Yang said: "You stopped me today, can you stop me every day?"

Ding Xiaole lowered his arms and said, "Go away, die outside and don't come back!" Yang Yang came back in the middle of the night, very depressed. Ding Xiaole asked: "What's the matter, did you hit a car or a person?" Yang Yang said depressedly: "Why do others drive for 13 minutes, but I drive for 23 minutes?" Ding Xiaole asked: "Where did you drive around?" Yang Yang said, "Three rings." Ding Xiaole said: "He drove in 13 minutes on the second ring road, which is more than ten kilometers shorter than yours." Yang Yang felt relieved, "Then I'm relieved." The boss agreed to give Yang Yang money to make a movie.During the day, Yang Yang locked himself at home to write scripts, and at night he was restless and depressed, so he went out for racing. Li Ding Xiaole. Ding Xiaole always has various ways to make Yang Yang take care of her, such as back itching.Ask Yang Yang to scratch her, Yang Yang is on the top of the code, and finds a tickle to scratch for Ding Xiaole, let her scratch it herself.Ding Xiaole scratched it a few times and said, "It doesn't work, it's still itchy." Yang Yang said, "Then you go take a bath." Ding Xiaole said: "Then you rub my back." Yang Yang said, "Go outside and find a back scrubber." Ding Xiaole said: "I don't want to be rubbed by others." Yang Yang said: "Didn't you see that I am busy, go and play by yourself." Ding Xiaole went to another room.Turn on my computer, go to QQ to have a video with Yang Yang, Yang Yang said: "I'm writing, I don't want to chat with you." Ding Xiaole said: "You don't need to talk, you write yours, and let me watch you write." Yang Yang accepted the video and wrote to the computer by himself, while Ding Xiaole was watching him while playing Doudizhu in the other room. After writing for a while, I couldn't continue.Yang Yang started to meditate, and was out of ideas for a long time. Ding Xiaole sent a sentence on QQ, asking: "What's wrong with you?" Yang Yang's computer crashed after reading this sentence, so he blamed Ding Xiaole for making trouble for him, lost his inspiration, and got angry with her.Ding Xiaole felt wronged.Said that she had been watching Yang Yang for a long time, and he was in a daze without inspiration.Out of concern, she consoled him.Yang Yang made a mistake, but refused to admit his mistake, so he said, "I don't have that much time to quarrel with you. I still have to do business." Then the conversation ended. But Ding Xiaole is not forgiving, and insists on distinguishing who is right and who is wrong. In fact, it is to let Yang Yang spend more time with her and not to leave her alone.Yang Yang wanted to finish writing the script quickly, so he said, "Is it exciting to quarrel, do you have time to do something serious?" Ding Xiaole said: "What is serious business?" Yang Yang said: "I don't know, I want to go." After speaking, he went back to his room and continued to write the script. Ding Xiaole belongs to the kind of person who can't keep things in his heart, and he has to talk about it to be happy, and he entered Yang Yang's room again after a while.Say Yang Yang is a man.She should let her go, he didn't show the man's broad mind at all now.Yang Yang said: "Men and women are equal. If you women have to put on a low profile and have to let men give way, then you can't rely on the slogan 'Gender Equality, this slogan can save you.'" Ding Xiaole saw that the criticism was not effective, so he changed the course and changed to encouragement education, saying that Yang Yang, as a boyfriend, has performed well overall and can score 70 points. If he can get rid of some problems, he can get 80 points, which would be even better. up.Yang Yang didn't appreciate it, and said: "I just have this virtue, and I don't want to change it. If you think the 80 percent is good, you can go to the 80 percent, maybe you can meet the 90 percent." Let Ding Xiaole go out and don't disturb him writing the script. Ding Xiaole was lying on the bed reading a book alone, and finally waited until Yang Yang turned off the computer and went to bed, and let Yang Yang go to bed while she was sleeping. The purpose of this is to relax the body, and if I just pose at you, the blood will not circulate, which is not good for the body." Ding Xiaole flipped to the opposite side of Yang Yang, facing Yang Yang.Yang Yang said: "You don't have to do this, my blood will turn around when my blood stops flowing." Ding Xiaole said: "Then I will turn over again." Yang Yang was helpless, so he stopped turning over and slept with Ding Xiaole all night. Waking up in the morning, Ding Xiaole said, "You slept well all night without turning over, and you're still snoring." Yang Yang said, "It's because I'm short of breath that I'm snoring," and then took a deep breath and said, "I have chest tightness." Ding Xiaole said: "I didn't turn over all night, how come I'm fine?" Yang Yang said, "That's because you look special." Ding Xiaole said: "You are the one who looks special." Yang Yang said: "Forget it, let's not talk about this, it's meaningless." Ding Xiaole refused to shut up, and said: "Then talk about meaningful things. I thought about what meaning is all night yesterday. You always ask me to do something meaningful. You go out to drink every day and come back in the middle of the night. Does it make sense?" Yang Yang said: "Women can't understand the meaning of men." Ding Xiaole said: "If you think it's meaningful, then it's really meaningless." Later, in order not to quarrel with Ding Xiaole, Yang Yang slept in a separate bed with her on the grounds that the recent research results of foreign scientists found that men and women sharing the same bed would affect the intelligence of men. But every now and then, Yang Yang would still share the same bed, Ding Xiaole said: "If you have a crush, continue to share." Before he finished speaking, he carried Yang Yang's pillow back from the other room. Ding Xiaole has a sweater with buttons. Yang Yang couldn't untie it for a long time when he unbuttoned it for the first time. Ding Xiaole said, "It's so stupid." Then he lifted the sweater off his head like a vest. Yang Yang took the sweater and looked at it and said, "Fake buttons!" Ding Xiaole said: "That's right, so if someone insults me, his energy will be on unbuttoning, and I can resist." Yang Yang wants to make a movie like this: The male protagonist lives in another city, and drifted in Beijing after graduating from university. He is 24 years old, his job is not going his way, he is oppressed by the leader, and earns little money. He is very depressed and has no courage to resign.One day he had a drink with some classmates, and the classmates advised him to quit his job, find a new one, and start a new life. He was finally persuaded, and his mood suddenly brightened, so he drank more and returned home whistling. Home. He rented a one-story house, and there was a small shop at the entrance of the alley. A fat man came out of the small shop, and when he heard the whistle, he told him to stop blowing it.Normally, according to his personality, he would stop blowing, but after drinking, he became abnormal. He got up, and had a few words with the fat man. Got bloody. He called the police himself, and sent all the policemen surnamed Zou to the fat man's house to investigate. The fat man was the only one in the house. The fat man locked the door, and the police couldn't open it no matter how hard he knocked. Police Zou visited the neighbors who lived in the same hospital as Fatty. It turned out that Fatty was mentally ill and was often bullied by his classmates when he was a child. One of the older children would whistle every time he bullied Fatty.Finally, when the fat man was fourteen years old, he went crazy after being severely humiliated, and he couldn't hear the whistle ever since. That's why he acted aggressively towards Liao Fan (the actor's name) that day.Fatty lived with his father, who happened to be on night shift today and was not at home. Policeman Zou asked Liao Fan to go to the doctor by himself first, and wait for the fat man's father to come back.The classmate accompanied Liao Fan to see a doctor and gave Liao Fan advice.If you ask for compensation, you will have to pay 10,000 yuan. The next day, policeman Zou called Liao Fan and Fatty's father to the police station and had separate conversations.The police told Liao Fan that the other party wanted to do it privately, and Liao Fan said it was okay to do so, but he had to pay for it.The policeman asked Liao Fan how much he wanted, but Liao Fan was embarrassed to say 10,000, and asked the policeman how much he wanted. The police said six hundred, but Liao Fan said it was too little.It cost more than five hundred to see a doctor.In order to close the case as soon as possible, the police forcefully persuaded Liao Fan not to be delusional, and it would be good to give Liao Fan the money for the doctor's treatment. Liao Fan is also responsible for this matter.This will not happen, and the condition of the fat man's house is not good.His father is a worker, and it will be difficult to pay more.Liao Fan still felt that the money was short, so the police talked with the fat man's father alone, and finally set the money at 800.If Liao Fan still felt that it was too little, he could go to the lawsuit. The police reminded Liao Fan that the lawsuit was very troublesome, and it would cost 2,000 yuan just to find a lawyer.Liao Fan accepted the result of 800, but asked for another thorough brain examination. The police sternly said that it was unnecessary, and told Liao Fan not to look for trouble.He handles things like fights much better.If there is a problem with the head, it will have appeared long ago.In the end, Liao Fan had to accept the result of 800 compensation.The police asked Liao Fan to meet Fatty's father.Liao Fan saw Fatty's father's gray hair, stooped back, much older than his actual age, and felt pity for his father, so he hastily signed the case closing report. Liao Fan went to the police station to solve the problem but did not ask for leave from the company, which delayed an important business. The boss saw that Liao Fan came to work wrapped in gauze, which seriously affected the company's image, so he fired him before Liao Fan voluntarily resigned. Liao Fan didn't tell his girlfriend Dudu about the beating. After Dudu came back from a business trip, he learned about it from other students and complained that Liao Fan was too honest and should hit Fatty's family hard. Liao Fan's younger sister, Liao Ping, came to see him and expressed her understanding that Liao Fan didn't ask too much from Fatty's family.After Liao Fan conveyed Dudu's meaning, Liao Ping said that Liao Fan and Dudu are two kinds of people, they will definitely not get together, they should break up now, don't delay each other, Liao Fan won't listen. Liao Fan still hasn't found a job after a month.Every class reunion, he looks shabby and desolate.In the past two years of working, Liao Fan has not saved much money, and his salary is not high. Apart from paying rent, eating, and buying things for Dudu, there is not much money left every month. When Liao Fan and Dudu were having dinner together, they asked her if she could give some money to spend. Dudu said that after all, the two of them hadn’t lived together yet, so it’s better to spend the money separately. Disperse. Liao Fan and Dudu are only male and female friends in name, and they never live together. Liao Fan rents a house by himself, and Dudu lives in the company's single dormitory.At the graduation dinner two years ago, Liao Fan expressed his love to Dudu, who had been secretly in love with him for four years, through the strength of wine, and showed hundreds of unsent love letters written to Dudu in the past four years, and expressed that He will go wherever Dudu goes after graduation.Dudu is a class flower. She hasn't been in a relationship for four years. She feels that a campus romance is unreliable. After graduation, she will definitely part ways. , and Liao Fan.But in the two years since graduation, Dudu and Liao Fan seem to be inseparable, and they just have a meal together every week to talk about their respective situations. Liao Fan borrowed some money from Liao Ping to live.Half a month later, Liao Fan still hasn't found a job.One weekend, Liao Fan and Dudu didn't have enough money to pay the bill, so Dudu had to pay the bill. Dudu said that since Liao Fan couldn't find a job for the time being, it would be better to go to the police station to demand compensation from the fat man's family. Liao Fan didn't go, but still borrowed money from Liao Ping.Liao Ping has only graduated for a year, and her salary is not high. She already lent all her money to Liao Fan last time. At this time, people from Liao Fan's hometown came to Beijing to see a doctor, but they couldn't get a call. They asked Liao Fan for help, but Liao Fan couldn't do anything.Liao Fan felt that he had to treat his old family to a meal no matter what, so he went to borrow money from a classmate. The classmate said he wanted to repay the house loan and car loan, but he only borrowed 500 yuan from Liao Fan, and asked Liao Fan to write a receipt. During the meal, Liao Fan talked about his situation through Jiu Jin: I have been in Beijing for six years, but I am not as good as you in the village. I may have seen Tiananmen a few times more than you, to tell you the truth. , I borrowed the money for this meal.The old family secretly commented that Liao Fan was useless, just like his parents.Liao Fan overheard and was shocked. Liao Fan came to Dudu to pour out his thoughts, thinking he could get comfort.If you want to touch Dudu, Dudu won't let you.Liao Fan, who had never smoked, smoked. Dudu felt that Liao Fan was very pitiful. He took off his clothes and let Liao Fan touch him. When it was time to pay the rent again, the old lady of the landlord said that if Liao Fan couldn't pay the rent on time after five days, he would get out. Liao Fan went to Liao Ping again, thinking that she still had money, but she didn't borrow it. Liao Ping took out the passbook and showed it to Liao Fan. Liao Fan saw that there was still 2,000 yuan in it, so she asked her sister to take it out and lend it to herself.Liao Ping took out the hospital certificate, saying that she was pregnant and would have it aborted the day after tomorrow, and the money was for the operation.Liao Fan was very surprised. He didn't know that Liao Ping had a boyfriend but now she was pregnant. He asked who that man was.Liao Ping said there was no need to ask, the man had already broken up with her.Liao Fan wanted to reason with that man, but Liao Ping said that it was her own business and she didn't want Liao Fan to take care of it, and Liao Fan couldn't do it either.Liao Fan felt that he was indeed a failure in life, and he couldn't even take care of his sister. The only thing that could make him stand up in the past was that his words had weight in front of his sister, but today he is insignificant. The rent was about to be paid, Liao Fan borrowed money from Dudu, but Dudu said that he wanted to break up with Liao Fan. She had already gotten along with her department manager, and the two had already had a relationship during the last business trip.When Dudu took off his clothes and let Liao Fan touch him that day, he already wanted to break up with Liao Fan, and it was only as compensation to Liao Fan for the past two years.Liao Fan asked Dudu why he didn't want to be with him, and Dudu said that Liao Fan was too useless to give her the life she wanted, for example, being photographed by a fat man was too useless. Liao Fan reflected on himself and felt that he was too useless, so he decided to slap the fat man with a brick to relieve his hatred, so he squatted at the entrance of the small shop with a brick every day and waited for the fat man to appear.Three days passed, and Liao Fan got nothing.The fat man finally appeared on the fourth day. Liao Fan waited for the opportunity to act, but he heard the fat man shouting "Kill the old man in the world".I heard from the neighbors in the alley that the fat man died after giving birth, and the fat man's father never remarried. Later, the fat man's father was found peeping in the women's bathroom. As a result, the fat man was ridiculed and bullied since he was a child, and he has always had a grudge against his father. Liao Fan felt that the fat man's home was not easy, so he was going to throw away the bricks in his hand and go back.At this time, after drinking, Police Zou passed by here. Police Officer Zou saw the brick in Liao Fan's hand and the crazy fat man not far away. He slapped Liao Fan twice and told him to go home honestly and stop making trouble. Liao Fan's long-suppressed anger finally broke out at this moment, and he slapped the brick in his hand at the policeman. Shooting the police with a brick is obviously not feasible in a socialist country. In order to pass the review, Yang Yang devised an alternative ending: When Liao Fan took a brick to shoot the police, our people's officers turned around vigilantly and got out of the way. Liao Fan was arrested and detained. The boss of the investment liked this story very much. It was his childhood dream to shoot the police. At that time, he was a gangster, and he got into it every three days, and was beaten by the police. After reading the script, the boss held it in his hands, with tears in his eyes, and tremblingly said: "The executors of the system are short of filming!" After the movie project was finalized, Yang Yang stopped taking other jobs and devoted himself to writing the script. Qiu Fei didn't need to participate in other things anymore, and finally he was able to calm down and summarize his recent life.One thing that made him wonder was whether he should get married now. It's not that Qiu Fei doesn't like Zhou Zhou. If he gets married, Zhou Zhou is his best candidate. The problem lies with Qiu Fei, that is, whether he thinks that if he is really married, he can be a qualified husband.When he thought of the word "husband", he felt chills down his spine and felt that he was still far away from him. One day when he passed Liangma River, a couple was taking their wedding photos by the river. A group of people gathered around and blocked the road. Qiu Fei also stopped and took a look.The photographer guides the groom to pose, and the groom is always below, either holding, dragging, or carrying the bride. The bride is plump and the groom is thin. After a few poses, he says he is bored, and asks if he can stop doing these poses. The photographer joked: "A qualified husband will be abused by his daughter-in-law from the moment he takes a wedding photo, and he must be prepared for the rest of his life." Although it was a joke, it made Qiu Fei think of the responsibilities of being a husband, which was quite scary, so he became anxious.The time for obtaining the certificate for the second time was getting closer, and Qiu Fei became more and more anxious. At this time, he heard a word, premarital phobia.It is said that this is a common disease among newcomers who need to obtain a certificate. Many couples are almost married, and because of this disease, they are strangers again. Qiu Fei felt that it wasn't that serious. It was like drinking traditional Chinese medicine. Once he gritted his teeth and closed his eyes, the pain would pass.Once you get the certificate, the disease will be cured if you don't think about it. Thursday, February 18, rain, the twenty-fourth of the first lunar month. It is suitable for consecration, tailoring, accepting lottery, demolition, meeting relatives and friends, entering the population, and forming alliances. Avoid building houses, planting plants, burials, and cooking stoves. On the 17th, Zhou Zhou called the Civil Affairs Bureau and asked, "Will the computer be broken tomorrow?" The staff member said: "Probably not. The last time the network was disconnected was an accident, which is rare in five years." This day Qiu Fei stayed at home with his mind out of his mind, living like years, and tomorrow he will be a married man.Although only his identity and title had changed and nothing else had changed, Qiu Fei was still a little anxious.He couldn't watch TV, disk, or books. He didn't even eat lunch, and he wasn't hungry. He didn't know how to spend the ten hours before his marriage.The phone rang, and it was Zhao Di, a college classmate, who said he was in Beijing and asked Qiu Fei to come out for a get-together. Qiu Fei greeted Zhou Zhou, Zhou Zhou told Qiu Fei: "Drink less, you have to get up early tomorrow." Qiu Fei said: "Understood." He put down the phone and went out. When Qiu Fei arrived, Zhao Di, Zhang Chaofan, and Ma Jie had already started eating.Zhang Chaofan works in a state-owned enterprise, so he can arrive late and leave early as appropriate, as long as he doesn't come at noon and leave after lunch.Ma Jie came out early and said he would go back to check in after eating. The three of them didn't ask for wine either, so Qiu Fei sat down and said, "Let's have a drink." Zhao Di said: "Drink." When the beer was served, Qiu Fei asked Zhao Di why he was here, and Zhao Di said he was on a business trip. Qiu Fei said: "Aren't you a public institution? Your task is to manage the internal network of the unit. What kind of business connection can you have with Beijing?" Zhao Di was evasive and said, "Anyway, there is." Qiu Fei asked Zhao Di: "When will you go back?" Zhao Di said, "Tomorrow morning." Zhao Di was always in a low mood when drinking.Qiu Fei asked him what's the matter, Zhao Di said it was nothing, and Qiu Fei said it was nothing to drink, Zhao Di raised his glass and drank it.Qiu Fei also did it. Qiu Fei said: "Tomorrow I will get the certificate with Zhou Zhou, I'm afraid." Ma Jie said: "What are you afraid of? You should be happy. Isn't this what you want?" Qiu Fei said: "I hope to get along well with Zhou Zhou, but it's too sudden to get the certificate tomorrow, and I can't accept it." After finishing speaking, he drank another glass and poured himself another. Zhang Chaofan said: "Drink less, don't delay your business tomorrow." Qiu Fei said: "I've been at home for a whole day today, and I came out to drink." Zhao Di raised his cup.Said to Qiu Fei: "Let's do it together." The two are done.Zhao Di said: "Actually, I'm not here on a business trip, I'm here to meet my first love." Ma Jie laughed and said, "You still have your first love in Beijing? Are you kidding me? Didn't you go back to your hometown after graduation?" On the night of graduation and leaving school seven years ago, everyone had a break-up meal in a restaurant outside the school. Except for those who left school early and rushed to report to work, everyone in the class who could come came and sat at two tables, with beer crates piled up to the roof , the waiter walked straight around when serving the food, for fear of falling over and hitting it. The meal lasted from six o'clock in the evening to twelve o'clock in the evening. The boss came in with the bill and said that it was time to close. After drinking the wine, he continued to call, but the boss said there was no more, so Qiu Fei and others went out to buy wine from the grocery store and took a taxi back. Said: "Don't buy it from outside, I will accompany you to the end. If you want to drink, you can get it from my store." Qiu Fei drank too much and said, "We don't drink your wine, don't you say we don't have any?" The boss said: "I hope you can end it as soon as possible. Now I can see that you can't end it if you don't drink it. How about it? From now on, if you drink a box, I will give you another box. You can drink it sooner." Lie down, so I can close the door early and rest." After speaking, he moved into two boxes of beer. Qiu Fei opened a bottle and said: "This bottle belongs to me. The rest will be one bottle for each person, and one box will be gone. We are not here to let the boss deliver wine, but to prove that there is nothing we can't do." The boys responded positively, each took a bottle, and the box was empty. At the beginning, everyone drank together, chatted together, gathered around the table, rushed to talk about the same topic, and reviewed the fun things in college.After drinking too much, hold a small meeting, two or three people, get together in a small pile, or guard the corner of the table, or tie in the corner, holding a wine glass, wishing the friendship will last forever. Outside the restaurant, someone leaned on a tree to vomit, someone ran to the corner to urinate, and the person who urinated did not wash his hands, and even helped a classmate who vomited to pick his throat, and then the two embraced, saying that they would miss each other in the future. In the restaurant, Zhao Di drank too much, held Qiu Fei's hand and said, "I'm going to buy new slippers today, and I won't wear yours in the future, and I don't have a chance to wear them. I'll go home tomorrow afternoon, ticket I have already bought it, and I will start a new life when I go back.” Qiu Fei was also drunk, and said: "Tomorrow, I'll buy a platform ticket and get on the train to hide in the toilet to take you home." Zhao Di said: "No one will see me off. I will take a taxi tomorrow. If I see you off, I'm afraid I won't be able to leave." After speaking, he stood up and walked out. Qiu Fei said, "Wait a minute, I'll go pee too." Zhao Di said, "I'm not going to pee." Qiu Fei said, "I'll spit it out with you." Zhao Di said, "I don't vomit either." Qiu Fei asked: "Then why are you going?" Zhao Di said, "I'm going to surf the Internet for a while, and I'll come back later for a drink." Zhao Di didn't come back after leaving. Qiu Fei and others drank until three o'clock in the middle of the night, but they couldn't drink anymore, so they withdrew. Back in the dormitory, no one sleeps.Someone started to make a phone call and kept banging his head against the wall, wondering if he was breaking up with his girlfriend; someone was playing football in the corridor, got too drunk and couldn’t stand still, fell over after a few steps, got up and continued to fight. Ball; someone took the washbasin to the water room to take the last cold bath, naked, and poured a basin of cold water over his head.Zhao Di came back at this time, and passed out as soon as he entered the room.Wearing a pair of underwear, without hanging a mosquito net, lying on the bed, turning on the tape recorder, playing Shuimunianhua's "Today we are leaving": today we are leaving to a different world like falling leaves we will arrive where is our ideal will they come true is our love there are they waiting don't forget me The days of laughing and crying together I think of her on those dreaming nights where is our ideal will they come true is our love there are they waiting The next day, when others woke up at noon and went to the cafeteria for their last lunch, Zhao Di's bed was already empty. Zhao Di said: "That night I went online to chat with my girlfriend at the time." Ma Jie said: "Don't think that women in QQ are girlfriends. In that case, I have at least fifty girlfriends." Zhao Di said: "We not only chat online, but also have sex." Ma Jie said, "Don't be obscene. There's nothing shameful about being a virgin." Zhao Di said, "I really didn't lie to you." Ma Jie said: "You have a girlfriend, why don't we know that we sleep in the same room with you every day?" Zhao Di said, "Actually, we've only recovered for three months." Zhao Di and this woman really met online. At that time, Zhao Di was drawing pictures in the computer room every day.When I was tired of drawing for my graduation project, I would chat online for a while, use QQ to search for the urban area where the netizens lived, and specifically look for women in the same area as me to chat with.Later, I really found someone I could talk to. The girl's house is near the school. The two met within a few days, and then fell in love. The girl is kind to Zhao Dite, and always brings him food from home.Stewed beef, meat buns, braised octopus.Put it in a lunch box, when Zhao Di eats.The lunch box is still warm. Ma Jie asked, "Why didn't we see it when you were eating?" Zhao Di said, "I was afraid that you would rob me, so I took the lunch box to the classroom to eat." Ma Jie asked again: "Then where did you sleep?" Zhao Di said: "She paid for the house and some of the money. I don't have enough living expenses." Ma Jie said: "That's all. Why do you go back to your hometown after graduation? If you want to finish playing, you will be dumped by others!" Zhao Di said: "She asked me to look for a job in Beijing. I have a foreign registered permanent residence, so it's hard to find. In addition, my family has already found a job for me in the local area. It costs money and relies on connections. If I don't report, I will Mom and Dad will be working hard for nothing, so I decided to go home and appease my mom and dad first." Zhao Di said that he went to the Internet cafe to chat with the girl that night. The girl's house was strictly controlled and she was not allowed to come out at night. He was afraid of being heard by the girl's parents when he called. At that time, Zhao Di lost his mobile phone and had no money to buy a new one. Text messages, the two can only contact online.The girl knew that Zhao Di was going back to his hometown the next day, and asked Zhao Di when he would come back, and Zhao Di said that he would come back when the time was right.The girl asked Zhao Di again, if he had to choose between her and work, what would he choose.At this time, a few policemen broke into the cafe suddenly, and saw that the Internet cafe didn't have a business license, so they copied it. Zhao Di was also kicked out, and he didn't have time to reply to the girl.Seeing that Zhao Di didn't reply, the girl thought he was fighting ideologically, so she sent a few more words, saying that if Zhao Di could stay, she would tell her parents to let Zhao Di live in her house instead of renting a house, and let her parents help. Zhao Di is looking for a job.But half a day later, Zhao Di still didn't reply, and the profile picture also turned black. The girl thought this was Zhao Di's reply, she was very disappointed, so she turned off her phone, feeling sad alone. When Zhao Di woke up the next day, he quickly called the girl's cell phone and turned it off. The girl didn't tell Zhao Di her home phone number. It took four hours for the train to leave, so Zhao Di had to pack his luggage and left Beijing reluctantly. When he got home, Zhao forced to rest for two days, went to the unit to report, sat on his desk, turned on the computer and went to QQ, only to find out the girl’s question and message that night, regretted it, and quickly borrowed money from his family to buy it. Mobile phone, text message to the girl, saying that I will work in my hometown for a month first, and then I will go to Beijing to see her when I get my salary.The girl is full of expectations. As a result, after receiving the first month's salary, Zhao Di felt that he had to buy some good things for the girl; so he worked for the second month. When the salary was paid, he remembered that the money borrowed by his parents to buy a mobile phone had not been paid back, so he decided I continued to work for a month; I worked for another month and felt that I needed a computer, so I worked for another four months and bought myself a computer.In short, every time when salary is paid, Zhao Di feels that he has not saved enough money to go to Beijing.A year later, the girl sent a text message, saying you don't want to come, I have a new boyfriend.Zhao Di regretted it, and felt that it would not cost much to go to Beijing. After receiving the text message, he bought a ticket and rushed to Beijing overnight. When he saw the girl, the girl still loved him, and the two opened a room again. Zhao Di said, If you are not in a hurry, wait for me in Beijing. I will come back one day sooner or later, so I left after talking. The girl didn't say anything. Not long after, the girl's new boyfriend found out about her and Zhao Di and broke up with her. She told Zhao Di, and Zhao Di said, great, wait for me.But after waiting for another year, the girl got angry and found another boyfriend. Zhao Di said: "However, I still keep in touch with her." Qiu Fei suddenly remembered, and said, "The Olympic ticket you gave me is intended to come to Beijing to watch with this girl, right?" Zhao Di said: "Yes. I originally wanted to watch this with my current girlfriend without telling the truth, but at that time the work was busy and I couldn't come." Ma Jie said, "It's almost been a year since the Olympic Games closed, why are you here again?" Zhao Di said: "She is going to get married. I am very sad to hear that, so I came to see her." Ma Jie said: "You're so good, you're too dishonest, and you value sex over friends. You didn't say anything and came to see us." Zhao Di said: "Didn't you see that, I am treating you today." Qiu Fei asked: "How are you and your current girlfriend?" Zhao Di said: "Now this is also very good for me. I have already missed one, and I can't miss the second one. I plan to get married in the second half of the year and have a good time with her." As he spoke, his eyes became moist. In the summer of 1995, Zhao Di was admitted to the provincial key high school in the provincial capital, and it was four hours away by train from the small city where he lived.When sending him to school.他爸对他说:“好好学,争取考到北京去,那是首都,比咱们这好。” 高中三年,赵迪课桌上的各种习题册和教辅书堆得比他还高,经常倒塌,把正在做题的赵迪埋在底下。不光他一个人这样。省重点的每个学生,都是这么度过三年高中的。每天晚自习要上到十点。然后回宿舍睡觉,第二天早上七点又要上早自习,这三年里,他们只干一件事情,就是学习。 填报志愿的时候,赵迪的所有志愿都是北京的学校,他要去大城市开阔眼界。 1998年,一张北X大的录取通知书几经辗转寄到赵迪家,当时他正和他爸下棋。他爸拆开信封,看完眼含泪水说:“这回咱们家终于出了一个大学生了,毕业后争取留在北京,弄个北京户口,让咱们赵家人从你这代起成为北京人。” 大学四年一晃就过去了。2002年毕业的时候。就业形式突然严峻了,他爸说:“不行就回来吧。大城市生活太累,家这边好找工作。” 赵迪又回到了老家,他说,自己转了一圈,又回到起点。毕业七年了,他已经习惯了老家的生活节奏和方式,再让他来北京,他也不会来了。他说,现在晚了,只能以后让他儿子实现他未了的心愿了。 2009年,赵迪要结婚了,他说他的人生已经走完了,剩下的任务就是把余生的几十年过完。 杨阳兴高采烈地来了,说剧本电影局通过了,马上就能开拍了,让付强导演,明天就开始选景选演员。 邱飞给杨阳倒了一杯啤酒,杨阳说开车来的,不能多喝,就一瓶。 原来在宿舍,每天晚上睡觉前聊的就是如何挣钱和漂亮姑娘,现在话题也没变,又多了一个,就是回忆过去。 一回忆,不免伤感起来。都觉得体力不如以前了,身体老实了,原来心里有一团火,现在充其量也就是一个暖水袋了;原来可以什么都可以不管不顾,现在思前想后了;原来觉得日子长着呢,每天过得慢,现在一眨眼就要三十岁了;以前成宿成宿地熬夜第二天踢球一点儿问题没有,现在熬一次夜得三天才能缓过来;以前宿舍的那台电脑,3.2G的硬盘,还没现在的优盘大,又要装毛片儿,还要拷游戏,宿舍六个人抢着用,过得也挺开心的,现在三四百G的硬盘,天天开着却不知道干吗了。 让大家特别有同感的是,现在不怎么想那事儿了,以前春天一到,树还没绿,看见街上那些白花花的大腿和浑圆的屁股就有冲动,天天想那事儿,觉得那是天底下最重要的事儿,不办不行;现在大腿也在,屁股也在,树绿了又黄了又绿,冲动却不在了,觉得天底下比这更重要的事情多多了,这事儿办不办也就那么回事儿。聊到这的时候,大家发现,以前性欲旺盛的时候,彼此间还相互隐藏,现在袒露心声了,看来那东西都快没了,也没的可隐藏了。 杨阳说:“咱们再也没办法回到过去了,头些日子有个外国电影节来中国找剧本投资,我想参加,但是人家要英文故事梗概,我就试着翻译我的剧本,发现一句话也翻译不出来了,于是在家看了一个多月英语书,没有丝毫进步。还是不会汉译英。想当年,我一个月就搞定了高考英语。为什么现在不行了?因为我们的元气尽了,原来元气在的时候,世界在我们脚下,现在我们只能仰视这个世界了。” 周舟发来短信,告诉邱飞早点儿回去,别忘了明天的事儿。杨阳提议一起为邱飞即将领证干一杯,然后就各回各家。 邱飞说:“我现在还不想回家。”然后给周舟发了短信。让她先睡,不用等他。 张超凡说:“也该回去了,都快十二点了。” 邱飞说:“再喝会儿,难得大家见着了。” 张超凡说:“我得回家了,还有人等着我呢。” 邱飞说:“给你妈打个电话,告诉她晚点儿回去。” 赵超凡说:“不是我妈,是我女朋友。” 马杰大惊:“操,你们怎么都突然就蹦出个女朋友啊,欺负我单身啊!” 张超凡说:“我们也是上礼拜才好上的。” 马杰问:“那女的干吗的。是网友还是同事还是相亲认识的?” 张超凡说:“租房认识的。” 张超凡为了上班方便,打算在单位附近跟人合租一套房子,自己住其中的一间,这样便宜。在网上看了一个招租帖子,写着:本人男性,欲觅一同性室友,清洁卫生,生活规律,无不良嗜好。一般遇到这种情况。想租房子的男人都不租,他们想和女生合租,盼着合租期间发生点儿故事,但张超凡特意找男性合租。他怕和异性发生麻烦事儿。于是给发帖子的人发了短信,约好看房。 给张超凡开门的是个女人,张超凡连忙说:“对不起,走错了。” 女人问张超凡:“是不是来看房的?” 张超凡说:“是。” 女的说:“没错,进来吧。” 张超凡看了房间,还算满意,问女人:“你怎么在帖子里说自己是男的啊?” 女的说,因为她想找个男室友合租保护她,如果在帖子里就说自己是女的。还要找男性合租。来租房的人肯定不怀好意。 张超凡说:“男女合租,不太方便吧。” 女的说:“没什么不方便的。你在你的屋,我在我的屋,互不干扰,你要是不放心,就把门插上。” 张超凡说:“我是怕你不方便,怕你不放心。” 女人说:“你这个人看着还行,我放心。” 于是张超凡就入住了。女人说找个男室友的目的是为了被保护,其实她是为了受欺负,没几天,她就钻到了张超凡的被窝里了。那天晚上张超凡在自己屋画图,女人敲门,说她害怕,张超凡说:“那你在我这屋待会儿吧。” 敞着门,张超凡继续画图,女人坐在一旁看着,看了会儿,又说冷,自己把门给关上了。还说冷。 张超凡说:“我怎么不冷啊?” 女人说:“因为你是男的,人家是女的。” 张超凡又拿来一件衣服给她披上,不管用,还冷。 张超凡说:“你要不嫌弃,就把我的被子披上吧。” 女人披上被子,说累了,想躺会。 张超凡说:“躺吧,我画图。” 女人躺在被窝里问张超凡:“画半天了不累啊。” 张超凡说:“有点儿累。” 女人说:“那你也躺会儿吧。” 张超凡想了想说:“好吧。”关了电脑,躺在床上。 女人撩开被子说:“外面多冷啊,进来吧。” 张超凡一蹭身,进去了。女人等了会儿,见张超凡一动不动地躺着,就说:“你怎么那么傻呀。” 张超凡说:“你才傻呢。”然后一把搂住她,四片嘴唇紧紧地贴在了一起,张超凡闻到女人嘴里一股酒味儿。 马杰问张超凡:“这女的对你这么主动,你就不怕她对别人也主动?” 张超凡说:“她不是那种人。” 马杰说:“这还不是?!都把你诱奸了!” 张超凡说:“她也是挺孤独的人,一个人在北京,没人陪,她说觉得我还靠谱,想让我当她男朋友,但见我不够主动,只好她主动了,为了给自己壮胆,她找我之前还喝了酒。”看了看表,“我得走了,她还在家等我。” 张超凡走后,赵油因为明天要赶火车、马杰因为明天要上班,也都走了,就剩邱飞和杨阳了。窗外下起雪,街上空空荡荡,饭馆已经打烊,留下一个男服务员在盯着,窝在门口的沙发里玩手机。 杨阳问邱飞:“周舟也在家等你呢,你什么时候回去?” 邱飞说:“我不想领证了。” 杨阳问:“为什么?” 邱飞说:“我怕以后回家成为一种责任,变成负担,还是一个人轻松、自由。” 杨阳笑道:“人总是要回家的,你现在也跟周舟住一起了,这跟结婚也没什么两样。” 邱飞说:“还是不一样,没领证的时候不回家,能心安理得一些,领了证,必须得回家了。” 杨阳说:“也就是说你还没做好领证的准备?” 邱飞说:“差不多,如果领了证,我就老老实实在家待着陪着周舟,但是现在我还不想待在家里。干什么老得替周舟考虑,太累。” 杨阳说:“替周舟考虑没什么不对的,我现在就觉得自己太不在意丁小乐了,委屈她了,正准备改,以前我是有点儿自私。” 邱飞说:“这也不是自私的问题,我是处理不好自由和责任的矛盾,所以,只好先为自由牺牲责任,享受够了自由,再为责任牺牲自由,这是我现在唯一能想到的办法。” “如果永远享受不够自由呢?”杨阳说。 “不可能。自由的人都孤独,跟不自由比起来,我更害怕孤独。”邱飞喝了一口啤酒说,“可是人一不孤独的时候,又开始渴望自由,真操蛋!” “现在你想怎么办?”杨阳问道。 邱飞喝了一口啤酒,说:“要不然咱俩去看海吧?” 邱飞要去北戴河看海,杨阳看了一眼表。夜里一点了,外面有雪,开到秦皇岛怎么着也得五六点,歇会儿再往回返,怕中午前赶不回来了。 邱飞说:“回不来就回不来吧。” 杨阳说:“别啊,上回你俩没领成证就有一半原因赖我。” 邱飞说:“上回领也就领了,现在我越想越不敢领。” 杨阳说:“你这么一说我成千古罪人了,更不敢拉你去海边了,周舟知道了非得找我算账。” 邱飞说:“你不去我自己打车去。”说着站起来晃晃悠悠地往外走。 杨阳赶紧追上去。说:“算了,我还是去吧,你喝成这样出了事儿我更没法向周舟交代了,正好我也想看看大海。” 周舟收到邱飞的短信后,并没多想,真就自己先睡了,以为邱飞仅仅是和老同学喝喝酒而已。周舟没有发现邱飞最近突然对结婚的恐惧。邱飞也没想让周舟知道,他觉得自己可以调整。但是现在发现并不那么容易。 周舟睡前上了一个闹钟,还给邱飞留着客厅的落地灯,对一个人深夜回家的人来说,家里亮着灯和一片漆黑会带给他不同的感受。 车上了京沈高速上。路两旁是农田和树林,模模糊糊只能看见剪影,前方不远的道路被车灯照亮,荧光路牌显示着距离秦皇岛的距离,还有二百九十公里。车里关着灯,邱飞坐在副驾驶的位置,打开车窗,让风灌进来。杨阳说冷,邱飞说他还觉得热。于是脱下衣服给杨阳捂上。车保持着九十迈的速度。超过几辆货车,邱飞问还能快点儿吗。杨阳说到头了,有雪,安全第一。 开了一个半小时,快到唐山的时候,邱飞酒醒得差不多了,关上车窗对杨阳说:“要不算了,回去吧,以后再说。” 杨阳把车停在休息站,说:“我也想回去了,困了。” 邱飞看了一眼表,快三点了,说:“你在车里眯瞪会儿,咱俩往回返。” 杨阳说:“我实在盯不住了,睡半个小时,你到时候叫我。” 杨阳在车里睡觉的时候,邱飞没事儿干,去休息站的超市买了几听啤酒,一个人喝起来。半个小时后,三听啤酒喝完了,叫醒杨阳,说:,'我又想去了。 " 杨阳揉揉眼睛说:“那就走吧,我也不困了。” 于是加满油,又上路了。 路上,邱飞一直关着车窗喝着啤酒,看海的热情没有再度冷却。 开到海边的时候,天边已经有了一丝亮光。杨阳把车正对大海停下,两人坐在车里,座位后移,把脚搭在控制台上,望着天边。沙滩上没有一个人,浪不大,冲到车前又停下。 杨阳打开CD,放着许巍的歌,《曾经的你》: 每一次难过的时候 就独自看一看大海 总想起身边走在路上的朋友 有多少正在醒来 让我们干了这杯酒 好男儿胸怀像大海 经历了人生百态世间的冷暖 这笑容温暖纯真 每一刻难过的时候 就独自看一看大海 总想起身边走在路上的朋友 有多少正在疗伤 除了许巍的歌声和海浪的声音,听不到别的声音,两人都不说话,陷入各自的情绪中。 半天后,邱飞张嘴了,“还有烟吗,给我一根。” 杨阳抽出一根递给邱飞,自己也点上一根。 邱飞说:“周舟这会儿可能醒了,你说,她发现我没回去,会怎样?” 杨阳说:“你提醒我了,我赶紧关机,省得她又打电话问我你干吗去了。” 邱飞说:“我给她发短信了,告诉她我在海边。” 杨阳问:“她说什么了?” 邱飞说:“她没理我。” 两人又不说话了。听着许巍的歌,看着大海尽头,想自己的事儿。 渐渐地,天已大亮,海面上出现了船只。 杨阳看了看表,七点了,说:“太阳应该已经出来了。” 邱飞往天上看了看,说:“我怎么没看见啊?” 杨阳说:“因为今天阴天。看不见。” 两人都笑了。 许巍的专辑放过一遍了,又回到《曾经的你》: 曾梦想仗剑走天涯 看一看世界的繁华 年少的心总有些轻狂 如今你四海为家 曾让你心疼的姑娘 如今已悄然无踪影 爱情总让你渴望又感到烦恼 曾让你遍体鳞伤 听到这,邱飞说:“回去吧,别让周舟等急了。” 周舟被闹钟叫醒,睁眼一看,床上只有她一个人。夜里周舟睡得并不踏实,和邱飞在一起住习惯了,现在身边少了一个人,就像到了一个陌生的地方。屡次刚有睡意,一翻身发觉邱飞还没回来,睡意又没了,一直持续到后半夜,周舟才因为太累而睡着了。 天已经亮了,客厅的落地灯还亮着,显得微弱。 周舟拿起手机。看见邱飞发来的短信,说他在海边。 周舟把电话打了过去。邱飞接了。 周舟有些埋怨:“你喝多了吧,还记着今天有什么事儿呢吗?” 邱飞说:“现在清醒了,记着呢。” 周舟问:“你在哪儿呢?” 邱飞说:“还在北戴河,堵在高速上了。” 北戴河这边也下雪了。比北京还大,几辆车在高速上追尾了,横七竖八地挡在路中间,等待处理。 周舟有些焦急,问邱飞:“那你什么时候能到北京?” 邱飞并不着急,似乎回不去正如他所愿,“说不准,看交警的效率了。” 周舟说:“要不然你们换条路走,或者你先坐火车回来。” 邱飞说:“没法儿调头了。后面卡得严严实实。我从这走到火车站得半天,能赶上几点的车还不一定呢。” 周舟有些不悦。“你知道今天有事儿还跑那么老远!” 邱飞说:“我要是今天回不去的话,咱俩再改天吧?” 周舟说:“不行,必须回来,要不然我这假又白请了,我妈还叫咱俩领完证回家吃饭呢。” 邱飞说:“那回不去有什么办法啊?” 周舟说:“你看着办。”说完挂了电话。 雪还在下,撒融雪剂的车也堵着,路面上开始积雪。对面那条路还算顺畅,见这边出了事儿,那边的司机们都放慢了行驶速度。 杨阳听见周舟在电话里说的话,问邱飞:“她生气了吧,要不然你下车,到对面拦个车,让他把你拉到火车站,坐火车回去?” 邱飞并不着急地看着车外说:“没事儿,在这等着吧,通就通,不通拉倒。” 十点左右的时候,路通了。别的车里的人欢呼雀跃,邱飞却不怎么高兴。 杨阳发动着车子,邱飞说:“慢点儿开,不用太着急。” 周舟这时发来短信,问怎么样了,邱飞回复:“还堵着。” 开到昨晚休息的那个加油站时,是下午一点,两人吃了点儿东西,给车加满油,杨阳准备出发,邱飞说:“再歇会儿吧。” 杨阳说:“我算看出来了,你今天是不打算领了。” 邱飞说:“再坐会儿,喝点儿水。” 又歇了会儿,周舟发来短信,问到哪了,邱飞说:“才通车。” 周舟上午想再睡会儿,昨晚没睡好,但是躺床上睡不着,打开电视看,无意中看到北京交通台的
