When Deng Yilan put the last plate of cucumber scrambled eggs on the table, she was a little embarrassed and defensive, and said: "...Try it, see if it's too salty."
Han Jun raised his chopsticks expressionlessly, picked up a piece of egg and ate it. Then he picked up a piece of cucumber and glanced at her: "Sit down and eat."
"Isn't it salty?" She sat down and wiped her hands on her apron.
"Salty." Han Jun said while eating.
Then what? Deng Yilan waited for a few seconds and suddenly realized that she was waiting for Han Jun to complain like her father, "Why can't you even make scrambled eggs?"
She knew that this dish was really inedible. She poured down half the bottle of soy sauce with a shake of her hand, and tried it with water twice, but it didn't work. Instead, the eggs were soggy, soft and shattered. If it were at home,
, after her father complained, her mother would immediately retort and say, "Then you do it" - she was ready, why didn't he even respond?
Han Jun raised his head and looked at her again. "What are you doing?"
"No...it's nothing."
"You cook for me, and you still wait for me to pick it?" After Han Jun understood it, he was suddenly startled - that slight surprise, as if he really didn't know that there are still husbands in the world who pick their wives.
It's like he didn't do the housework well enough. "It would be nice to eat some," he lowered his head and took another big mouthful.
Deng Yilan couldn't help but smile and picked up the chopsticks.
Han Jun was always like this. In some of the little details of life, she felt... how should I put it, as if he was experiencing this society for the first time. This is not to say that he acted naively and had no scheming.
He looks pretty respectable to outsiders, but when he comes home and relaxes, he shows the energy...as if a wolf boy has just returned to the world. He doesn't seem to understand many things that are agreed upon.
It's not that bad.
When the two met for the first time, Deng Yilan didn't want to go at all. The leader she introduced was a relative of her mother's colleague in her workplace, so it didn't matter if she pushed him. But as soon as she turned thirty, her mother seemed to be in a daze and wanted to go.
As long as it is a man, he will take it home. As soon as he refuses to say goodbye, his face suddenly becomes scary.
"You just want to get married now. By the time you give birth to a baby, you will be considered an older mother... Why don't you want to get married? If a woman doesn't get married or have children in her life, then what kind of woman is she? I don't even want to go out to climb mountains with my sisters now.
When I asked, hey, I still don’t even have a boyfriend, it’s embarrassing!”
Deng Yilan felt that either her mother went crazy first, or she went crazy first. But she had been obedient since she was a child - besides, going there would at least make her mother shut up temporarily.
But Hanjun is really... quite different from men of this age who are usually on blind dates.
First of all, he doesn't know how to be polite at all.
On a blind date, at least you have to pretend to be polite, but he doesn't. As soon as he sits down, say: "Are you attracted to me? If not, then leave. I have food at home."
eat."
Who is this?
Deng Yilan reluctantly said: "We are all here, let's have a meal together, we don't understand yet."
"What else do you know? I saw you as soon as you walked in," Han Jun said, lowering his head to look at the menu, looking almost fascinated, as if the things on the menu were strange - but he was talking to her.
At that time, it felt like it was incidentally: "...you look like you are not excited."
Is it so obvious? She had obviously behaved very well before, and no blind date could tell.
"I don't like others sharing my food," Han Jun reminded, "We each order our own food."
This person is definitely not good enough, so he should reject it when he returns.
When the two of them were eating in silence, she said deliberately: "I'm just a cashier, my salary is not high, my family doesn't ask for any gifts or dowry, I don't have a car, and my parents still have to live in an old house. This year I will be three years old."
I’m fourteen and I don’t want to have children yet.”
The last one was tried and true - it wasn't that she really didn't want to have children. If she could get married, she felt that she would probably follow the trend and have children in the future. But the men who heard this sentence definitely flinched.
"...Oh." Han Jun glanced at her inexplicably.
"If you get married, you must be more concerned about this, right?"
"Me?" Han Jun was stunned, "When the child comes out of your body, it's your decision whether to give birth to it or not. What's the point of me not caring?"
What's going on with this man? Deng Yilan looked at him carefully - he looked different from the popular standard of handsomeness. He had a manly look with square jaws and stubble. She didn't like manly looks before.
It's heavy, but it seems to be okay now.
"Then...economically..."
"What you said is that your family needs money?" Han Jun said matter-of-factly, "If we get married, I will get it if we are short of money. Of course, you also have to work hard."
I couldn't explain it at all, and the words about making money sounded like a ruffian. Deng Yilan sighed inwardly while eating, and decided not to meet him again; but a few days later, when the introducer said that Han Jun had nothing to do with her
When she was dissatisfied, she went to have dinner with him again. The two of them rarely did anything else when dating. They just had dinner once a week. After more than 20 meals in a daze, she got married in a daze.
There shouldn't be too many times when people can't figure out what he's thinking. Sometimes she deliberately asks him, "Do you think I'm good-looking?" Hanjun will say "Yeah" when he's in a good mood, and "You" when he's in a bad mood.
Do you think I've never seen a beautiful woman?" - Even though she knew she wasn't very beautiful, she was still very angry.
Life after marriage is like that of millions of people in the world, working from nine to five, going home to do housework, eating and watching TV, chatting and going to bed. However, not long after the marriage, Deng Yilan discovered that he sometimes
He would walk in circles alone in the living room, as if a wild wolf had been locked up in a zoo. After bumping into the cage several times, he couldn't knock him anymore, so he had to run in circles like this.
"Have you ever thought about there being another life?"
Sometimes he would suddenly put down the old information in his hand - and he didn't know why he liked to read about some strange people and things in the past so much - and said to her: "Go wherever you want to go, do whatever you want to do, unless you have the ability to do it."
Kill me, otherwise no one can make me bow my head. The things and people I meet every day are new and different. And you know, there are countless vast worlds outside, and although they are dangerous, they are also full of life..."
"Are you having a mid-life crisis early?" Deng Yilan asked him, "It's a good idea. Do you have the money?"
Han Jun became obviously impatient, but he lowered his head and stopped talking, continuing to read his old information.
"What happened? Is it from work?" She also felt that what she just said was not good, so she asked him softly.
"It's nothing, it's the same as before. When the people above slap their heads, the people below start to go crazy. Today's regulations are enforced tomorrow, which is meaningless." Han Jun was probably absent-minded and said casually,
"I didn't know it before, but now I realize that it's not easy for you to be a good sheep."
What does this mean? Deng Yilan felt a faint sense of surprise in her heart, but she did not dare to ask further. Only after that day did she realize that Han Jun's life was not actually very happy.
What about herself? Is she very happy? Does working as a cashier day after day make her feel satisfied and cherished?
With this confusion, Deng Yilan began to observe her husband. Although he spoke harshly and once threatened her, "If you keep talking nonsense, I will slap you unconscious," he actually rarely got angry.
The only time was when he helped her cousin send her child to school. The child forgot to bring her student ID card. When the facial recognition was scanned at the school gate, something went wrong and the face recognition failed to pass through. The school security refused to let the child in.
It took half an hour, and the child was crying. Deng Yilan was not there that day, and when I heard later that Han Jun almost kicked down the school gate, I was really shocked.
What can be done about this kind of thing? Isn't this kind of dissatisfaction common? But she did not persuade her husband like this. She poured him a cup of tea and sat silently holding his hand for a while. After a few minutes,
Han Jun subconsciously touched her hand gently.
Such a living person, such a different person... is now placed in a black plastic bag, with his face bruised and swollen and deformed.
When Deng Yilan finally recovered from her memory, she found that she was crying hoarsely. She couldn't help but push away the policeman holding her down and rush back into the small bush to see what happened to Han Jun.
What's wrong? Why did she fall into the dirt without a word? The night was as dark as ink. The street lights couldn't shine, the flashlight couldn't shine, and the police car lights couldn't shine either. Everything was blurry, and she didn't even know.
Remember to call the police.
"Family members, please control your emotions!" a middle-aged policeman shouted loudly, probably because a vicious case had occurred, and his face was very ugly. "Did you just move the body? You destroyed the clues like this, how are we going to handle the case? Cooperate.
Let’s get to work soon!”
Yes - yes - this is a murder case.
Someone killed Han Jun.
"I, I know who killed him," Deng Yilan cried so hard that she couldn't breathe. She said intermittently several times, "Yes, a woman said that she found my husband's cell phone... let me do it.
This is her, she pretends to have a man’s voice, but, but I can hear it!”
She told as much as possible about what happened in the afternoon, although she was a little confused and broke down in tears.
"Did you see the back?" The policeman thought for a moment, "If I show you the surveillance camera, can you identify who it is?"
"Yes, definitely! But, she is wearing a hat..."
"With gait recognition, I can't run away." The middle-aged policeman didn't mean to explain more. He waved his hand and asked someone to drag the body out from the bushes. Deng Yilan forgot what else he said and just stood on the sidewalk in a daze.
, watching Han Jun pass in front of him for the last time and disappear into the dark door of the corpse truck.
The next day, her husband turned into a small jar of ashes.
