Suisui at Seventy - Chapter 102
Jiang Suisui went straight to sit in the back seat expertly, and put his arms around Song Weizheng’s waist and said: “I just thought you were asleep, but I thought too much. Why are you so energetic at any time? I just thought. After squinting for a while, I felt so sleepy when I woke up, and I couldn’t open my eyes.”
Song Weizheng: “I always sleep less, like this when I’m at home. You are still young, and sleeping more will grow your body.”
Jiang Suisui chuckled softly: “I’m 19, what body do I have? It’s impossible to grow taller. You don’t want me to gain weight? That’s not OK!”
Song Weizheng smiled without speaking, but took out a box from his pants pocket and handed it back to Jiang Suisui.
“?” Jiang Suisui took it suspiciously, opened it, and exclaimed, “The watch?! You…when did you buy it?”
Jiang Suisui took out the contents of the box, his tentacles were cold, and under the dim light at night, he could see that it was a ladies watch with a narrow silver bracelet.
Song Weizheng: “Put it on, it will be convenient to check the time later.”
Jiang Suisui continuously asked: “When did you buy it? Why didn’t you tell me? How much did it cost?”
Song Weizheng turned his head and said, “You put it on first, sit down, and we will talk as we walk.”
“Okay…” Jiang Suisui obediently put the watch on his left wrist, buckled it and stretched it out in front of his eyes and shook it.
Song Weizheng grabbed her wrist, looked back and forth, nodded and said, “It looks good.”
Jiang Suisui withdrew his arm, looked at it for a moment, and said distressedly: “Good-looking is good-looking, and it looks brand new, so it must be very expensive. Tell me, how much did you spend on buying it?”
Song Weizheng stepped on the bicycle, the wheels turned, and the two slowly left the campus.
“It didn’t cost much. Didn’t I tell you last time that I want to go to the south to ship? I took it from there, and it was just the purchase price.”
“Um…” Jiang Suisui touched the bracelet, the dial was delicate and delicate, the more I watched, the more I liked it, but…
“The purchase price is definitely not cheap, you still spend a little less recently, is this refundable?”
Song Weizheng: “If you wear it, you can’t return it.”
“??” Jiang Suisui couldn’t laugh or cry, “Nonsense, do you think I will believe?”
Song Weizheng: “Wear it, you have to buy it sooner or later. You will go out on weekends and it is convenient to see the time.”
Jiang Suisui smiled sweetly, knowing that because she complained about the inconvenience of checking time two days ago, Song Weizheng remembered it.
She hugged his waist from behind and said happily: “Okay, then I will put Comrade Xiao Song’s heart on my hands, I must cherish it!”
Jiang Suisui leaned on Song Weizheng’s solid back and thought, he really wants to be a salted fish by him! Go to the travel agency next week and start working hard to make money!

At the Capital Square in the early hours of May 1st, only the dim light of street lamps illuminates the wide avenue.
No longer able to drive any further, Song Weizheng parked his bicycle on the side of the road, preparing to take Jiang Suisui along.
As soon as Jiang Suisui stopped, he was stunned by the line in front.
It is past three o’clock in the morning, and there are already several long queues! So many people don’t sleep, they are all waiting to watch the flag raising!
In this era, flag-raising ceremonies are only arranged on important festivals, such as the Spring Festival, National Day, and May 1st. Unlike later generations, they can’t move through rain or shine every day.
But perhaps it is for this reason that so many people come to see each time. Jiang Suisui arrived at three o’clock in the morning, and they could only line up in the middle and back rows.
Jiang Suisui had just lined up at the end of the line, and it was full again within a few minutes. She squeezed and almost fell on the person in front of her.
Song Weizheng quickly grabbed her and fixed her by his side. Thanks to his tallness, he just squeezed out a breathing space for Jiang Suisui.
The man who was nearly hit by Jiang Suisui turned his head back. He was a tall and tall middle-aged man. The night was too dark to see his appearance and expression. Jiang Suisui only felt that he gave her a light look.
She quickly apologized: “I’m sorry, I didn’t stand firm just now!”
Song Weizheng gently pulled Jiang Suisui to his side and looked at the man alertly.
The middle-aged man keenly noticed his eyes, frowned, said nothing, just nodded and said: “It’s okay.”
After speaking, he turned his head and stopped paying attention to the rear.
Jiang Suisui silently stuck his tongue out at Song Weizheng behind his back. Song Weizheng also slightly raised the corners of his mouth and smiled at her.
In the front row, after Zhao Weiguo stood up straight again, a friend on the side approached and said in a low voice: “I said you, why are you here to squeeze the queue, let the upper one arrange a front position for you?”
Zhao Weiguo looked at the location of the flag-raising platform ahead without squinting, and said with a serious face: “There is no need for special treatment.”
My friend can’t understand his brain circuit at all: “What kind of special treatment is this? You are a senior technician of the country, and you have just completed a big project this time. What is this special treatment? It does not hinder others…”
Zhao Weiguo shook his head: “Don’t you think that standing in the crowd to watch the flag raising makes the feeling even more different?”
My friend frowned, puzzled: “I didn’t think…”
Zhao Weiguo smiled and said softly: “There are old and young people watching the flag raising, military officers and civilians, but regardless of age and status, the feelings when seeing the flag raising are the same. Only standing in the crowd In order to fully appreciate this feeling. Just like the little girl who just almost ran into, she was young and reckless, but full of vitality. This is our next generation. Although they have not experienced the previous era, they are still working hard. By raising the flag, look up at the glory of the past.”
After listening to his long talk, my friend had nothing to say: “Okay, what you said is right. I, seeing you come back once in a while, let’s squeeze it with you.”
Zhao Weiguo patted him on the shoulder, smiling.
He turned his head and continued to look forward, but unconsciously recalled the young man next to the girl in the back row in his mind. He was handsome in figure, but half of his face was trapped in the darkness that the light could not illuminate, and he couldn’t see clearly. Zhao Weiguo couldn’t help but feel his sharp and guarded eyes.

Jiang Suisuidan knew that he had to get up early to raise the flag, but he didn’t know that the queue was so tiring.
From three to five, she stood for two hours alive. That’s not the case. I used to line up to buy things in the town of Dayan Village for so long, and I didn’t feel very tired.
But depending on the flag-raising team, everyone wants to be closer to the flag-raising platform, even if it’s only a cent away.
Therefore, the gap between the teams is very narrow, and Jiang Suisui can’t do it even if he wants to move his feet and change his posture.
Fortunately, because of the crowded people, Jiang Suisui could secretly lean on Song Weizheng unscrupulously, and no one noticed.
Seeing that Jiang Suisui was tired from standing, Song Weizheng simply took her waist, let her hang her whole body on him, and relieved her strength.
With the support of Song Weizheng, Jiang Suisui was able to persevere.
Seeing the sky gradually faded, she raised her arm and looked at her watch in the bright spot. The hour hand was already pointing to five, and the minute hand was moving slowly, and it was slowly approaching fifteen minutes.
At 5:15, the flag-raising ceremony officially began.
Seeing the military representatives carrying the flag slowly coming from a distance, Jiang Suisui hurriedly stood up straight, as if suddenly relieved of exhaustion, looking forward through the gap with expectant eyes.
Zhao Weiguo in the front row couldn’t help standing taller, staring scorchingly in the direction of the red flag.
A passionate national anthem sounded and ended, and the neatly singing voices in the crowd slowly fell.
At this moment, the red flag has risen slowly, and as the breeze gently flutters at the top of the flagpole, it is also floating in the hearts of everyone on the scene.
Jiang Suisui was inexplicably excited about seeing it. She stood there unconsciously, staring for a while after raising the flag, unwilling to leave. Song Weizheng also stood quietly beside her, looking into the distance without speaking.
After regaining consciousness, she looked around and found that there were really people who were moved to tears as the aunt in the dormitory said.
Jiang Suisui thought, maybe only people of this era can experience the excitement and emotion of the red flag.
The red flag fluttered, the crowd gradually dispersed, and Jiang Suisui was finally empty.
She let out a long sigh of relief and said to Song Weizheng: “It’s over, let’s go!”
Song Weizheng nodded slightly: “Go.”
When Zhao Weiguo turned his head warmly, what he saw was the profile of Song Weizheng turning around and preparing to leave.
He paused for a moment and looked at Song Weizheng’s back with piercing eyes, frowning not knowing what he was thinking.
The friend turned around and saw him standing in a daze, staring at the front in a daze, and then followed his line of sight.
There is nothing special about a pair of young men and women.
The friend shook his hand in front of Zhao Weiguo’s eyes, wondering: “What are you looking at? The flag raising is over. And the red flag is over there, what are you looking at here?”
Zhao Weiguo returned to his senses and shook his head. He was also a little confused. He said, “It seems to have seen a familiar person.”
The friend wondered: “Those two young people? Looking at the most in their early twenties, what acquaintances can they be? When did you have a new year?”
Zhao Weiguo smiled and punched his friend, and said: “Don’t talk nonsense. I can’t remember which one is familiar, it’s probably just because of the fault.”
The friend hooked his shoulder and said, “That’s it, let’s go, it’s still early, go to my house for breakfast?”
Zhao Weiguo shook his head: “No, I’m going home.”
“Hey…you are on vacation for a month this time, why do you always stay at home?” My friend was puzzled, “It’s rare to come back, don’t you get together with your brothers?”
Zhao Weiguo smiled and shook his head helplessly: “There is an ineffective nephew at home. My parents are used to it. I rarely come back and stare at it for a few more days. Well, you will all come to my house in a few days and everyone will gather together. “
The friend sighed, and said, “You nephew, you really are not a good boy. You are so crazy. You, you are just like having more sons. You have to worry about everything.”
Zhao Weiguo condensed his eyebrows, thinking of Zhao Jiabao, but also worried.
