Movie Variety Show: Starting from a New World

The next morning, after Wei Hong arrived at the unit, she dealt with a few patients and then had some free time. After all, this was a military hospital and it wasn't open to the public yet.

Wei Hong picked up the phone on the table and started dialing Zhou Rong's office.

Zhou Rong now works in a newspaper in Peiping. Her daily job is to deal with various letters from the public, select the more representative ones and submit them to the editor-in-chief, who will then choose the appropriate ones to publish.

"Hello, who is this?" Zhou Rong answered the phone and asked curiously.

"It's me, Wei Hong!" Wei Hong's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Oh, why did you call me suddenly?" Zhou Rong asked in surprise.

"What else could it be? Don't you know it yourself?" Wei Hong said unhappily.

"What's the matter?" Zhou Rong looked confused.

"My Miss Zhou, you are already 32 years old! Do you want to live alone for the rest of your life?" Wei Hong said.

"Is this the reason you called me today?" Zhou Rong asked curiously.

"What else? Do you still want me to worry about whether you have osteoporosis?" Wei Hong said with a roll of her eyes.

Zhou Rong was completely speechless after hearing Wei Hong's words. She had witnessed Wei Hong practicing martial arts with her brothers before, and the feeling of their punches hitting each other's flesh was still fresh in her memory, even though they were wearing protective gear and were not allowed to hit each other in the face.

However, every time Zhou Rong watched the Zhao brothers practice boxing and kicking, she felt that she would be shattered if she faced Wei Hong with just one touch.

"Okay, Miss Zhao, I'm convinced by you. Why did you suddenly ask about this matter today?" Zhou Rong quickly changed the subject and asked curiously.

"What else could it be? Bingkun, following your grandfather's instructions, wrote a letter to my father, asking me to ask what's going on with you. Bingyi and Bingkun's children are old enough to help with cooking, but you, as their aunt, don't even have a partner. How can the old man not be anxious?" Wei Hong said with a look of disappointment.

Zhou Rong was speechless for a moment. She hadn't expected her father to actually write directly to the Zhao family. This time, she had to trouble them for such a small matter.

In fact, Zhou Rong had always been fascinated by the poet named Feng when she was in junior high school. She thought he was very romantic and she really liked that feeling.

But later, Uncle Zhao gave him a notebook with a song written on the beginning. At the end of the song, Uncle Zhao wrote a few words to make him remember it clearly.

"Everything you see on the outside isn't the real world. When you peel away the beauty on the outside, you'll find that it might actually be turbid underneath! Only by breaking through your own stubbornness can you discover the true beauty of this world!"

It was this sentence that made Zhou Rong start thinking. Although Uncle Zhao was just a policeman, he was still able to create such a popular song.

And what about me? I think I am an artistic youth, looking down on those so-called vulgar people, but often these vulgar people can better understand the true meaning of life!

So Zhou Rong did not sign up on her own to go to Guizhou to look for the poet she longed for. Instead, she went to the street office to sign up for a position in a rural area not far from her home to work in the countryside.

It was during those days of working in the countryside that Zhou Rong realized how difficult farming was and how painful it was to go hungry. After experiencing all the sufferings in the world, Zhou Rong felt that she had been elevated.

In her spare time, Zhou Rong would also read the set of math, physics and chemistry books that Uncle Zhao had mailed to each of her three siblings, and entered the ocean of knowledge.

When the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination came, only Zhou Rong knew the shock in his heart. It turned out that Uncle Zhao saw all this and he saw the future!

During the years when she was studying in Peking, Zhou Rong often went to the Zhao family on weekends, ate delicious food there, and discussed studies with the children of the Zhao family.

Zhou Rong was once again shocked. The Zhao family's children were incredibly smart! It seemed like no problem could stump these children, who were only around ten years old.

Zhou Rong's self-confidence was shattered by shock after shock. It turned out that he was really a man of both literary and martial arts, and that she was just an ordinary person.

So Zhou Rong had been looking for a boyfriend like the Zhao family for years, but unfortunately, she hadn't met anyone. As for the Zhao family's children? The only ones who looked like Zhou Rong were the eldest, second, and third children.

But when she wanted to develop a relationship, the suitable ones were already married, so Zhou Rong had no chance at all. The younger Zhou Rong also couldn't do the old cow eating young grass thing.

Therefore, Zhou Rong could only continue to search on campus and in society. However, over the years, Zhou Rong had come into contact with too many people, but none of them caught her eye.

After all this delay, the only thing left was that I became an old maid, and my father had to write a letter to ask them if I had any unspeakable secrets?

"Wei Hong, are you really saying that there are no people as talented as the children in your family? It's not possible that all the smart people in the world are in your family, right?" Zhou Rong asked her thoughts.

"Who in my family do you like?" Wei Hong asked.

"No, I just want to find a man who is as talented in both literature and martial arts as your brother. Unfortunately, I haven't met one in all these years! The job I do at the newspaper allows me to come into contact with cultural figures from all over the country, but they are either old-fashioned and boring, or extremely hypocritical!" Zhou Rong said in a gloomy tone.

"You are always stuck in a dead end. Didn't you say before that there was someone who was pursuing you? What was his name?" Wei Hong asked.

"Cai Xiaoguang? Why are you asking him?" Zhou Rong asked in confusion.

"Do you know what my father thinks about love and marriage?" Wei Hong suddenly said.

"What did Uncle Zhao say?" Zhou Rong was suddenly filled with curiosity. He really wanted to know what kind of life philosophy Uncle Zhao could express.

"My father said that love is something that makes people always anxious about gains and losses. Those who are loved are fearless, while those who pursue love are covered in scars. A marriage without love is a grave, and a marriage with love is a besieged city. Love and marriage are both selfish and cannot tolerate any flaws! We are all passers-by in the world, and time passes in the blink of an eye. Find someone who loves you and experience the feeling of being loved!" Wei Hong said.

"Did Uncle Zhao really say this? How could such a serious person tell you this?" Zhou Rong was really a little shocked.

"What's the big deal? My father often says things that make people think deeply. That's why I say, instead of wandering around outside looking for the person, you might as well look back at the person who is chasing you and loves you but can't get you. Isn't such a person worthy of your cherishment for being able to like you for so many years?" Wei Hong said.

When Zhou Rong heard Wei Hong's words, she immediately thought of all the years of Cai Xiaoguang's dedication and care for her. Wasn't she the one who was loved and fearless?

She rejected Cai Xiaoguang again and again and disappointed him again and again, but Cai Xiaoguang never gave up on her and still loved her deeply.

Thinking of this, Zhou Rong suddenly discovered that the person she had been looking for was not far behind her, and had been silently following her on the wrong path. His efforts were no less than hers!

"Wei Hong, I suddenly feel like a jerk. Cai Xiaoguang has been silently protecting me for so many years, and I only truly realize it now. Isn't it a bit too much?" Zhou Rong said with a wry smile.

"It's okay. My father once said that literary youths like you are arrogant and have no worldly desires. To put it simply, scholars are always the ones who are unfaithful. They are talking about people like you!" Wei Hong said with a smile.

Zhou Rong didn’t think Wei Hong was wrong. Wasn’t she the one who was unfaithful to Cai Xiaoguang?

"Thank you, Wei Hong. I finally see myself clearly now. I have decided to talk to Cai Xiaoguang!" Zhou Rong said with a smile.

"If you really want to, then find Cai Xiaoguang and go to Beiping. Since you can take root in Beiping, don't leave easily. Moreover, if you and Cai Xiaoguang develop in Beiping, it will be more beneficial for your future! Don't be impulsive and resign and run back directly!" Wei Hong warned.

"I get it. I'm not a child. I've worked so hard to get to my current position. How could I give up so easily? I'm also a team leader after all! Do you know how difficult it is to get to my current position in our newspaper?" Zhou Rong said with emotion.

"Okay, since you have a goal, then I have completed my mission. I won't disturb your memories. I have a patient here. I will come to visit you when I return to Peking!" After Wei Hong finished speaking, she hung up the phone and went to see the patient.

Zhou Rong looked at the microphone, which was now only emitting the sound of electricity, smiled bitterly and shook her head. If only she could live as carefree as Wei Hong!

That afternoon, Zhou Rong wrote a letter to Cai Xiaoguang. But when she got off work in the evening, she saw an unexpected person, Zhou Zhigang!

"Dad, why are you here?" Zhou Rong hurried over and hugged Zhou Zhigang. Zhou Zhigang had been supporting the construction of the Third Front for so many years, and Zhou Rong hadn't seen him for a long time.

"I was passing by Peking on my way back to work, so I thought of coming to see you. Your marriage has become a concern for me, so how could I not come to see you?" Zhou Zhigang said expressionlessly.

When Zhou Rong looked at Zhou Zhigang's gray hair, she realized that the man who had always been so upright had also grown old, and that she was indeed wrong.

"Dad, I've made up my mind and have written a letter to Cai Xiaoguang. If he is willing to accept me, an old girl, then I will marry him!" Zhou Rong said.

"Really?" Zhou Zhigang was delighted that his daughter finally figured it out.

"You have written the letter to Uncle Zhao. Wei Hong called me specially. If I don't hurry up, I will be really embarrassed." Zhou Rong said helplessly.

"Haha, it has to be Wei Hong. She's always so accurate! By the way, buy some things and go visit your Uncle Zhao tomorrow. Dad will be on the bus in half an hour, so I won't go. You can go and say hello on your dad's behalf!" Zhou Zhigang said with a smile.
