Chapter 13 A Worldly Love (1)

Zhibang was my classmate in college. When he was studying, this guy wanted to fall in love almost crazy, but he was not tall, he was not handsome, and he weighed like an African refugee. He didn't have a trace of masculinity. Love is unsuccessful.We brothers all feel sorry for him, and every time we hold a dance, we will bring him along, hoping that there will be a small and exquisite girl, unfortunately, he will fall in love with him.It's a pity that Zhibang can't even seize such an opportunity. Often, before he introduces himself, the girl will either frown and look elsewhere, or run away with a grin. Of course, she didn't forget to whisper Leave a sentence: so young and weak, can't it be that she is shrinking in adolescence and can't mature?
Therefore, no flowers bloomed behind Zhibang's broken bicycle.Even us boys don't bother to sit in his car, fearing that with his little strength, he will accidentally let our big man fall to the ground.Zhibang himself never gave up, and often said, just wait and see, buddy. One day, Zhibang will become famous, drive a BMW, and drive a beautiful wife to piss you off!Of course we didn't believe it, and we passed his crazy words to the girls, winning their smiles that couldn't be bought.

In fact, during the four years of college, Zhibang also had a little scandal, and it was with a girl named Tianmei.The girls are not pretty, but they are more than enough to match Zhibang.At that time, Zhibang pursued him ruthlessly, with a fearless spirit of sacrificing his life.This girl Tian doesn't dislike Zhibang very much, sometimes she will joke with Zhibang for the sake of a little chocolate.This bit of sunshine and rain is enough to inspire Zhibang's endless enterprising spirit.Everyone knows that Tianmei actually doesn't like Zhibang at all, but because she can't find a good boyfriend for the time being, and she doesn't want to give up Zhibang's small favors, she reluctantly copes with him.But Zhibang couldn't see through it, and foolishly followed Tianmei's buttocks, as if he was always at her service.It wasn't until Tianmei fell in love with a promising young man quickly before graduation, and went to a beautiful seaside city with him, that Zhibang was very hopeless, and after crying a lot, he went to the south.

When I saw Zhibang again, even though this guy didn't drive a BMW, the gleaming Audi still envied us poor brothers who didn't make out.We all came with our wives and children, but Zhibang was alone.The magnificent car did not bring a beautiful wife as he boasted back then.Zhibang himself is no longer worried about his own image problem. Instead, he uses the fact that he is still unmarried at the age of 38 as a joke to us, saying that every time he has to fill out the form, the column of marital status is always the same The person receiving the form will look up at him in surprise every time, and ask him: Is there a mistake, the 38-year-old old man is still unmarried? !Zhibang estimated that when he wanted to get married, the people at the registry office would be surprised by his first marriage history.After laughing loudly, we all asked him with great interest, are you really alone in the past few years? Seeing your rosy face, it doesn't look like you have no love.

Zhibang smiled but didn't answer, he just toasted us cup by cup.As soon as all the brothers counted with their eyes, they joined forces and poured him a lot until he finally couldn't control his mouth and confessed the fact that he and Tianmei fell in love again.But such news did not make us happy, because Zhibang is unmarried, but Tianmei, behind her husband and children, talked about extramarital affairs with Zhibang. The 38-year-old Zhibang has achieved fame and success, and because of time experience, he already has a mature charm that none of us can match.Of course, it is not unusual for such a man to attract Tian Mei.It's just that Zhibang will accept Tianmei, who has not had much style, just because of the old relationship that didn't have a happy ending, but it makes us still worry about this love like ten years ago.

A few months later, the high-spirited Zhibang suddenly came to me for a drink.After drinking for three rounds, he spit out the depression in his stomach.He said, Mei Tian divorced her husband without telling me. His husband is also a successful person. How could she be willing to leave and not force me to get married? It's really depressing.I was surprised and said, I guess Tianmei really fell in love with you, not just your property, otherwise, a woman who is nearly forty would not take the road of divorce so decisively.After hearing this, Zhibang felt even more depressed.After a long time, I choked out a sentence that left me speechless: Brother, what I’m afraid of is that she really falls in love with me. Even if I’m “unmarried” all my life, I won’t spend the rest of my life with a flower that is about to wither what.

I heard that Zhibang never married Tianmei, and Tianmei did not go back to remarry.The love between two people, which has nothing to do with material things, may really be a trick of good fortune. The beginning and the end are always just one person's lovesickness.And our craziest youth, just like this, went all the way in the bustling and secular world.

The price of love is rising.

A gathering with a group of Ph. D. students at S University was originally a serious forum spontaneously organized, but for some reason, the topic turned to love.They are all older young men and women, and they are on the edge of the unmarried "third type of people", so they feel sorry for each other, make an agreement with each other, form brothers and sisters, and get rid of all the single doctors who have no love. The "meeting" was really fruitful, and he found a pink beauty for a male blogger on the spot.Before leaving, everyone was excited, thinking that in this group, there is finally one less lonely nobleman and more sweet love, maybe next time we get together, we can still drink sweet drinks from male bloggers.

We met again a month later, but the male blogger did not lose one or two wrinkles because of the nourishment of love as we expected.On the contrary, he refused to invite us to a thank-you meal on the grounds that we had wasted his one-month meal ticket for nothing.After questioning, I found out that the love between him and a certain female master only lasted for 29 and a half days, and then he died of anger.A group of gossip people got to the bottom of it, and only then did they find out why the two broke up.

In the beginning, the love between the two was quite high, and sparks sparked into a prairie fire. But one day, the female master accidentally learned that the male doctor was unable to stay in school because of one of the requirements, so she immediately drew a line with the male doctor. , say, stop here.Some people were disappointed and complained about male bloggers: Then why don't you fight for it, saying that you might be able to find a better job?As a woman, it's not an exaggeration to coax her once in a while.The male blogger pouted immediately, and said, it is better to look for it than try hard to please. Besides, the female master can neither go to the kitchen nor go to the hall, so I don't know who to choose!A group of people laughed dumbfounded, not knowing whether to comfort the male blogger, or to rejoice for him that he has the opportunity to continue to choose.

I also thought of a classmate A from a wealthy family. When he was studying, he fell in love with a beautiful woman. At that time, A spent a lot of money, and he paid for all the women's clothes.This once envied our group of similarly worldly little girls, who thought it was nice to be rich.But in the year of graduation, the two suddenly broke up, and the woman found another man who was far inferior to him.Seeing that A spent the whole day drinking to drown his sorrows, everyone persuaded him one after another, saying, there is no fragrant grass anywhere in the world, why bother to fall in love with a single flower?Besides, with your strength, others are rushing to marry you.Unexpectedly, he popped out a sentence, besides my father's property, what capital do I have?What's more, this additional capital is gone now.Everyone was puzzled, and after careful questioning, they found out that his rich father had divorced his mother, and of course all his deposits were taken away. The only thing left for him now is his mother who has no job at home.Everyone was silent, thinking, being rich may not be good, but being rich is really good.

One year after graduation, at a banquet, I met A again.In his arms was the woman from the past who had abandoned her.Everyone heard that they were getting married soon, and they raised wine to congratulate the lovers on their marriage.Seeing Jia in high spirits and his rediscovered moist love, the ladies all admired, saying that the power of love is really great, and all kinds of twists and turns can't stop its affectionate call.Just when our group of women praised the spirit of the person next to A, regardless of rich or poor, A got up and toasted again, saying, please have another drink for my parents' reunion.All the people in the group were surprised that he was a person who was good at smoothing things over. They stood up and toasted, saying, "Double happiness is coming, so it's time to have a good toast and celebrate, and the embarrassing atmosphere faded away."But the wine in the glass, strangely, without the previous aroma, instead reached the stomach, feeling a little bitter.

It was after the show that I heard a well-informed person mention the whole story.It turned out that A's father got tired of remarrying after only half a year, so he fought another divorce battle. Fortunately, A's mother, regardless of the past, remarried and reconciled with his father.And A's beautiful girlfriend, after getting the news, immediately cried into tears in front of A. The general meaning is that she regretted seeing Qian's eyes open in the past, and only now did she realize that he really loves her.

Outsiders are of course embarrassed to expose such a clumsy reason, and A, who loves so deeply, takes in her repentant and reformed partner, just like a mother.We, a group of gossip girls, once speculated privately that maybe A knew the reason why love was lost and recovered, but it was because the capital attached to him was still intact.But he didn't tell the truth, maybe he also understood that it is better to continue the old love than to find a new woman who falls in love with his added value.Compared with spending money to start a new relationship, how to say, it can also be less effort.
