The days that followed were uneventful.
During this period, Wen Qian tried his best to force herself to devote herself to the work related to opening a store. The address of the clothing store has been chosen. It is opposite the department store. It is a single room of about fifty square meters. The location is excellent and the rent is not too expensive.
More than three hundred yuan a year.
She could totally afford it.
As for the decoration, she does not intend to follow the current simple and simple style. She will try her best to spend the least money to create the most luxurious effect, and strive to make her store an instant hit in this small county.
Live each day to the fullest.
Wen Qian didn't have time to think about Zhou Shilin, until two days before the National Day, she suddenly had an idea to go to Beijing and participate in this national celebration event.
The 35th anniversary of the National Day.
The 1984 military parade.
The most murderous military parade since the founding of the People's Republic of China.
Of course, ordinary people did not have the opportunity to go to Tiananmen Square to watch it in person, but she just wanted to go and step on the land of the capital with thousands of Chinese people to celebrate the birthday of the motherland.
after one day.
Wen Qian arrived in Beijing.
Bright red flags have been hung on major roads and units, and the streets and alleys are filled with a festive atmosphere. Everyone has a beaming smile on their face, and many time-honored shops are packed with people.
Everything is so prosperous.
She couldn't help but blend in. She had roast duck for lunch and went to Wangfujing Department Store in the afternoon.
As he was leaving, he ran into Meng Weiyi. She was walking in the middle surrounded by several young girls, her head raised proudly, and the contempt in her eyes was undisguised.
"What a coincidence."
Meng Weiyi stopped Wen Qian and looked up and down.
"Qianqian, it's hard to come to the capital, but why are you empty-handed? Don't tell me that you didn't buy anything after shopping around the department store."
The words fell.
The other few people burst into laughter.
"Weiyi, you think everyone is like you. Going to a department store is like going to a wet market. You can spend money without blinking an eye. This is a department store in Beijing. How can ordinary people afford it?"
Several people sang in harmony, and jeers arose.
From the beginning to the end, Wen Qian's expression remained unchanged. She had no intention of understanding these little followers, and she completely shattered Meng Weiyi's arrogance with just one sentence.
"It's not that I can't afford it."
"Our family Zhou Shilin's salary and savings have all been handed over. Naturally, I can buy whatever I want. I don't buy just because it's too tiring to carry it!"
Meng Weiyi: "!"
Got slapped in the face again!
Thinking of Zhou Shilin actually handing over all her savings to Wen Qian, her heart turned into a lemon. Seeing that she looked ugly, several of the followers looked at each other and didn't dare to say anything.
No one present knew what Meng Weiyi was thinking.
Isn't it because of Zhou Shilin that she didn't get married for so many years? Before, she had always claimed that Zhou Shilin married a rural woman out of necessity. Now it seems that he was clearly willing.
All deposits have been handed in!
Several people looked at Meng Weiyi with complicated eyes.
Meng Weiyi looked ugly.
Except for being humble in front of Zhou Shilin and the Zhou family, she would never suffer any loss. She was about to raise her hands immediately, but Wen Qian calmly stepped back, raised her eyebrows and chuckled sarcastically: "What? You're crazy again? Having an attack?"
"Since you are sick, go and treat it."
"Don't let him out and bite people randomly. This is the capital city, not your Meng Weiyi's torture chamber."
After saying that, Shi Ran turned and left.
There was arrogance from top to bottom in her slim back.
Several of the followers were dumbfounded.
"Where does this woman come from? Is she really from the countryside?"
"I think she is just relying on Zhou Shilin's fake power!"
"Weiyi, do you just see her so arrogant?"
Meng Weiyi's heart was filled with fire, and she stared at Wen Qian's back with cold eyes.
Why did Zhou Shilin bring Wen Qian with him to the National Day celebration? He was obviously just an orphan born in the countryside. How could he feel comfortable occupying the position of the Zhou family's daughter-in-law?
She absolutely won't allow it!
She dares to be so arrogant when she comes to her own territory. There are many ways to deal with her!
the next day.
National Day on October 1st.
A day of national celebration.
Wen Qian woke up early in the morning. There was a TV in the lobby of the guest house. When she went downstairs, the hall was already full of people. Everyone was eagerly waiting for the National Day celebration to begin.
This is the top priority today.
It would be a great pity not to watch the military parade.
Ten o'clock in the morning.
The live broadcast started on time.
With the sound of "The celebration of the 35th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China begins," a 1,200-member military band played the national anthem, and a 28-gun salute resounded through the sky.
Accompanied by the majestic and fierce March of the Volunteers.
Everyone present was excited.
I don't know who started it, and everyone started singing along.
"stand up!"
"Those who do not want to be slaves... brave the enemy's fire and march forward, advance, advance forward!"
this moment.
All Chinese sons and daughters are proud, proud to be born in China, proud of the momentum of the rise of a great country, and proud to live in the spring breeze and grow up under the red flag!
Someone's eyes were red.
Wen Qian also choked up.
At this moment, she felt proud from the bottom of her heart.
She has entered China with no regrets in this life. She is living in the wave of the times, not the 1980s that she saw on the Internet, but the real 1984. She is not a bystander of history, but a real witness!
The five-star red flag rises slowly in the morning sun.
Thousands of people stood in awe and saluted the national flag.
After the flag-raising ceremony, there was a grand military parade. The honor guard composed of the navy, army, air force and armed police formed a neat square formation and walked across Tiananmen Square in high spirits, showing the demeanor of the Chinese military to the world.
Suddenly, the rumble of aircraft engines sounded in the sky.
Wen Qian's heart was beating fast. She stared at the TV screen closely, watching the fighter jets forming four echelons in the air, dragging long columns of colorful smoke over Tiananmen Square.
There... there was Zhou Shilin.
She imagined his heroic appearance, her eyes couldn't help but turn red, and she felt an inexplicable sense of pride in her heart. This feeling was still stirring in her heart until the end of the celebration.
There was even an urge to see him.
But then I thought about it, I didn't even know where he lived, and the impulsive thoughts gradually dissipated. What to say when they met, after all, she was unilaterally declaring a cold war.
never mind.
She will go back tomorrow.
Throughout the afternoon, Wen Qian wandered around the guest house. She planned to have copper pot hotpot in the evening. When she was about to go out, there was a knock on the door.
"Knock knock knock."
It only rang three times.
Wen Qian didn't know anyone in Beijing, so she couldn't think of anyone who would come to see her. She asked 'who', and the person outside the door was very polite: "Is this Comrade Wen Qian? I'm the leader's security guard."
lead?
Could it be Zhou Shilin's father, Zhou Feng?
This guess was quickly verified. Wen Qian was invited into the car and went directly to a quiet teahouse.
