1979: My fiancée is a goddess

Chapter 198: Past Events, Hongmen Banquet, and Crying Aunt
Summer evening.

The moon is bright and the stars are shining, and the evening breeze is refreshing.

A movie was playing on the open space near the small garden in the Air Force compound. It was an internal reference film.

In this era, even the most prominent children had very limited means of entertainment, which were just watching internal films that ordinary people could not watch, wearing nice clothes, and being particular about food and drink. The objects of their entertainment were "selected concubines" from art troupes at all levels.

Apart from that, it is far worse than later generations.

To some extent, these children can be considered unsophisticated.

Internal reference film, the full name is "internal reference film".

It refers to movies mainly imported films that were shown only at specific times and in specific places for a small number of specific groups of people during a specific historical period, especially from 49 to the 90s, for which tickets were not sold publicly and relevant information was not released in the mass media.

There has always been a saying that the internal reference film is the H-rated film that a certain four people specifically request to watch.

In fact, these films are mainly world classics and popular movies in recent years, which are provided for government officials, military cadres, foreign affairs personnel, and staff of literary and artistic and educational institutions to watch in order to understand the political, economic and cultural developments of countries around the world.

It is particularly prevalent in military compounds.

……

In the Ning family's house, the glass windows with red and green dyes were closed.

An old lady with gray hair, wearing a loose short-sleeved shirt and a watch on her arm, stood by the windowsill, quietly looking at the movie screen not far away.

It’s just that the angle was not very good, it was a bit too tilted, and old lady Jiang Yunxia could only see a few figures shaking in the picture.

"What's that?"

The old man walked towards the door with steady steps, leaning on a cane.

"Zhukov, the iconic figure riding a white horse."

Jiang Yunxia said lightly.

"He... it's a pity that his achievements surpassed his master's, and his fame was in vain.

After the Zhukov incident, his status plummeted.

At that time, I was still under the command of Mr. Ye. This incident caused quite a stir. Although it happened thousands of miles away, it indirectly led to the old man launching the rectification of the army and opposing dogmatism. The Lushan Conference... In a blink of an eye, it has been more than 20 years. "

Old man Ning Zhengguo's eyes were filled with memories and remembrance.

"You had just come of age at that time, right? But you insisted on joining the army. Now look what happened. You can't come back once a year after joining the army.

Now I am in my thirties, I don’t have any children, and my wife wants a divorce…”

Jiang Yunxia's tone was still calm as she recalled the past, but she couldn't help but get a little emotional at the end.

"Who can stand this? I can't see anyone for years."

Ning Zhengguo loved this son the most, otherwise he would not have named him Zheng.

The youngest son has the strongest character, personality and personal ability among his brothers and sisters. He has made great contributions now and will surely become the pillar of the family in the future.

Therefore, Ning Zhengguo also loves Jiang Ting and her family, and he said this to plead for Jiang Ting.

"You don't have to beg for mercy for her. It's been more than ten years... I haven't blamed her for not having children!"

Jiang Yunxia snorted coldly and said mercilessly.

"..."

Ning Zhengguo was choked by her words and was speechless for a moment.

What do you mean we have endured for more than ten years? You mean we will have to endure like this for the next few decades, right?

You...are being a bit harsh.

"Did she introduce Cheng Kaiyan to Jiajia? He's quite courageous. Let's see if he dares to come... Hehe, he's asking his in-laws for support."

Jiang Yunxia's mind flashed back to the way her granddaughter Jia Jia defended him just now, and she said in a sarcastic tone.

"Isn't it? It's your daughter who's going too far."

Ning Zhengguo said expressionlessly.

"But that spot was definitely given to Jiang Ting. Could it be given to someone else?"

"She has no ability, who can she blame? She is in the same school, but A-Ting is better than her. She hasn't even graduated yet, and she got pregnant before marriage. How dare she blame others?"

"Then you're going to say that to her face?"

Just as the two old men were arguing calmly, a figure appeared under the light at the corner of the corridor not far away.

Ning Qiuyue, with slightly damp hair and thin clothes, leaned against the wall and listened to the conversation between the two. She held the comb tightly in her hand and combed her hair expressionlessly, and said with a dim look in her eyes:
"You must come... Jiang Ting."

……

Teachers’ dormitory building of Beijing Normal University.

Every house was brightly lit, and in the corridor there were people sitting at the doorsteps eating and chatting, washing clothes, fighting, and the sharp cries of babies. It was really lively.

In the Jiang family kitchen, a figure wearing an apron and holding a spatula was ready to go.

The light yellow peanut oil was bubbling and gurgling at the bottom of the pot.

If even a drop of water falls, it will be a disaster.

But the next second, the washed vegetables were put into the pot, and the water that had not yet been drained came into contact with the boiling peanut oil, instantly stirring up countless steam.

"Shh-"

Jiang Ting leaned against the door, quietly watching the lively scene in the corridor, listening to the noise coming from the kitchen behind her, and enjoying this moment of comfort.

The draft from the door blew the ends of her hair and clothes, which were particularly obvious under the light.

Today's home is particularly different, with a lot more of the atmosphere of fireworks, which makes her heart full of tranquility.

Just because there is one more person in the family.

After a while, a figure walked over from the other side of the corridor.

It was Lin Xiaohong who lived next door and had just finished her exam. Director Fang had recently given her a holiday and she had just come in from outside.

During the dinner break, she took her little nephew out to buy watermelon.

At this time, she was holding her nephew in one hand, two big watermelons in the other, and a candied haws in her mouth. When she saw Jiang Ting, Lin Xiaohong hurriedly and enthusiastically handed over the watermelon and said with a smile.

"Professor Jiang is in the mood to chat at the door today. Would you like to eat some watermelon? Take one."

"Let me ask."

Jiang Ting rarely refused, but instead gave a strange reply.

She looked at the green and black lines on the watermelon and knew it was ripe.

Then, under Lin Xiaohong's gaze, he turned around and called out, "Kaiyan? Do you want some watermelon?"

"The watermelon seller has come to the dormitory?"

Cheng Kaiyan, who was cooking in the kitchen, was delighted. Where did this wild big watermelon come from?
On a hot summer evening, there is nothing more comfortable than eating watermelon to cool off.

"It's me! It's me! Your sister Xiaohong."

"Who's selling watermelons? Why are they selling them in the courtyard?"

Lin Xiaohong rolled her eyes, speechless, and stood on tiptoe to shout.

But she was a little surprised that Professor Jiang seemed to have become more approachable today?
She followed Jiang Ting into the house, looked at Cheng Kaiyan busy in the kitchen, and said with a smile: "Nephew, you are here again, cooking for your aunt?

Professor Jiang, your nephew is so nice to you! I'm so envious!

If my little Baozi is as good as this in the future, I will be so happy! Ta-da-da!"

After saying that, he lowered his head and teased the child in his arms.

"Yeah, we're family after all."

Jiang Ting smiled and nodded, took out the watermelon, and stuffed two cents into it.

It is early summer now, and the watermelons are small and not very sweet.

The price is a bit expensive, two cents per pound, and only people with slightly wealthier families buy it to try it.

But food is still relatively scarce these days, especially sweet things. Watermelon is considered a very cost-effective food and is very popular.

Lin Xiaohong bought two small melons weighing five pounds, which cost only twenty cents in total.

"Then I'm leaving and going back to eat."

There was a shout from the opposite door, and Lin Xiaohong left with the child. At this time, Cheng Kaiyan had already prepared dinner. The two sat opposite each other and ate a pretty good dinner. The long-lost warmth once again filled Jiang Ting's heart.

After dinner, Jiang Ting was responsible for washing the dishes while Cheng Kaiyan went to fetch water.

After finishing all the chores, the two of them read on the balcony to enjoy the cool air until around nine o'clock, then went back to their rooms to sleep.

At night, Jiang Ting lay on the bed and fell into a deep sleep with a faint smile on her face.

There was no conversation that night. Jiang Ting woke up feeling refreshed. She got up early and went out to buy breakfast.

As soon as I went upstairs, I saw a familiar figure standing at the door.

It was Ning Qiuyue, whom I hadn’t seen for a long time, and she was accompanied by a teenage boy.

"Long time no see, sister-in-law."

The woman opposite looked at her with a smile, but her eyes were a little strange.

"What are you doing here? If you're here to lobby, then that's not necessary."

Jiang Ting walked over nonchalantly, stretched out her hand to push away the two people blocking the door, and calmly picked up the key to open the door.

"You still talk in an annoying way, and you still act like you don't care about anything.

I am a little surprised. It is really puzzling that someone would get close to a woman as cold as you. Who is so ungrateful? "

Ning Qiuyue still maintained her smile, but her tone of voice was full of disgust.

"Nothing to do with you."

Jiang Ting opened the door and walked in, giving Ning Qiuyue a cold look.

"How can it have nothing to do with me? I'm just curious, sister-in-law."

After Ning Qiuyue finished speaking, she pulled her son Wang Jianan towards the house.

Jiang Ting quickly stopped him, "You, are not allowed to come in."

"Why can't I come in? You can achieve what you have now because of our Ning family. Everything you have now is given to you by me! What qualifications do you have to say such things? What qualifications do you have to divorce?"

Ning Qiuyue's eyes were sharp, her voice rose a few notches, she raised her chin, looked down at Jiang Ting, and said contemptuously.

She raised her hand, pushed Jiang Ting away, and rushed into the house on her own.

Jiang Ting couldn't stop her, so she could only let her eyes scan everything in the living room like a master, "There's no human touch at all, it's a waste to let you live here."

Jiang Ting didn't care about Ning Qiuyue. She just put the breakfast in her hand on the table with a calm expression and started eating as if no one was around.

Then Youyou said, "Everything I have now is the result of my own hard work. It has nothing to do with you. You don't have it just because you are not qualified, just like the quota back then, do you understand?

I'm quite curious, do you have nothing else to do all day except being jealous?

I thought you had made some progress over the years, boring."

"you!!"

Ning Qiuyue's face changed when she heard Jiang Ting's words.

Suddenly, he was like a cat whose tail was stepped on, and his fur stood on end.

The two were once students of the same school, but in different grades. It was during the 1989-1990 period, when foreign exchanges were scarce and the school only had one extremely precious place for studying abroad.

A total of ten people were shortlisted.

One of them is Ning Qiuyue, who comes from an extraordinary family, and the other is Jiang Ting, who is talented but has a cold personality.

As a result, the two of them became enemies.

So much so that later, Ning Qiuyue gave up on herself and started dating Wang Ziru.

It can be said that from Ning Qiuyue's perspective, she could have risen rapidly instead of just sitting there in a retirement position and waiting to die.

Marriage, family, career... She blamed all the misfortunes on Jiang Ting.

Later, Jiang Ting even became her sister-in-law, and the two were often compared.

How could she bear this?
Some unbearable past events flashed through her mind. Ning Qiuyue took a deep breath and tried to stay calm, but still failed. She stared at Jiang Ting and said coldly, "I hope you are still so sharp-tongued tonight. The old lady said that you should go back tonight. She will wait for you at home."

Jiang Ting shook her head, "I'm not going."

"You...you have to go even if you don't want to? Sister-in-law, you don't want anything to happen to Cheng Kaiyan, right?"

Ning Qiuyue suddenly laughed and pointed at the extremely handsome young man who suddenly appeared behind Jiang Ting.

"Boom!!"

"you dare!"

Jiang Ting slammed her slender palm down on the table, making a loud noise that echoed in the living room, like a torpedo exploding on the calm lake surface.

She stood up suddenly, and her beautiful phoenix eyes became extremely sharp as she stared at the woman in front of her.

The originally calm face now turned icy cold.

The whole person was like an ice volcano that had been dormant for a thousand years, suddenly erupting.

The two of them looked at each other, staring at each other.

The entire living room became the scene of the fight between the two women. Cheng Kaiyan stood in the corridor and felt as if the road was about to be erased. Any random sight could nail her to this corridor of time.

A few minutes passed, maybe ten minutes.

Jiang Ting pursed her lips and said softly, "I'll go."

"That's good."

Ning Qiuyue smiled complacently, gently stroked Jiang Ting's face with her palm, and said softly: "Then I will leave first, and someone will come to pick me up, so our third wife doesn't need to take the bus.

Then I won’t disturb you and the handsome boy from spending a wonderful holiday together, hahahaha…it’s really interesting, Jiang Ting.”

After saying that, the bad woman took the silent Wang Jianan and turned away.

But when she reached the door, the bad woman suddenly turned around and said in a delicate voice:

"Oh! I almost forgot, the old lady specifically asked this handsome boy named Cheng Kaiyan to attend the banquet.

The old lady said she wanted to have a good talk with him about family education and upbringing.
After all, who told us that our Ning family is uneducated? "

Then the door clicked and the room fell into silence.

In the early morning, the sound of birds chirping could be heard outside the window. The sun shone on Jiang Ting's shoulders. She, who was usually calm and composed, looked a little ugly.

Jiang Ting clenched her fists so tightly that her nails dug into her flesh without her realizing it.

You know, even when faced with them blocking the door and Ning Qiuyue's vicious words, she never took it to heart.

But now, just a threat made her lose her composure for the first time.

I was extremely anxious and had a lot of thoughts in my mind.

The old lady specifically asked Kaiyan to go?

It must be because of what happened yesterday. What should I do?
How to do?How to do?
It's definitely to offend that person, the Hongmen Banquet!
This is the Hongmen Banquet!
Is it all I can do to agree to her?
……

"Let me see, does your hand hurt?"

At this time, I heard a familiar voice in my ears. I turned around and saw Cheng Kaiyan squatting beside the sofa. He held his red and hot right hand in his hand, as if it was the most precious treasure, and blew cool air on it gently.

It happened that the curtains were flying, and the sunlight and wind fell on him at the same time, ruffling his long eyelashes.

At this moment, the cold-hearted beautiful woman's psychological defenses were broken. Her eyes were red and crystal tears overflowed and rolled back and forth in her eyes.

In order to prevent tears from flowing out, Jiang Ting tilted her head back and bit her lips hard to suppress her emotions.

"Let's go together tonight."

"tonic……"

The woman's voice sounded a little distorted, with a hint of crying.

Cheng Kaiyan was amazed as she looked at Jiang Ting's delicate appearance, tears streaming down her face.

My aunt is so beautiful when she cries like this...

"I'll tell you in secret, my teacher is..."

The woman's eyes gradually widened.
