It's been a while since they moved to Jiangbei District. The old couple like to sit in the yard and bask in the sun. The early autumn sun is almost invisible, and the warm air permeates people's bones, crispy. The family hired a nanny, in her forties, an outsider, very lively, afraid that the elderly would be bored, so with Zhou Hao's consent, a small vegetable garden was cultivated in the yard. In their free time, the three of them chatted in the yard, or watered the vegetable seedlings.
In the huge villa area, there are nearly a hundred families, and this is the only one who grows vegetables in his own home.
Ever since Zhou Hao came back from Africa, Jiang Yuqian never returned to his parents' home. There were several short phone calls on the way, which lasted only a short time, and always ended up being forced to hang up.
Zhou Hao didn't know these things at first, but there was only one time when the two of them were arguing in the room, and the phone call came over there. Jiang Yuqian's expression turned serious, he left Zhou Hao behind, and went to the balcony with his slippers on.
Through the glass sliding door, Zhou Hao saw that the man's face became more solemn, but the corner of his mouth was smiling at him, and he even made some ambiguous gestures to him.
After the phone call, Zhou Hao didn't ask any more questions, but the two of them also lost the enthusiasm they had before. Both lowered the fire, each busy with their own affairs.
At eight or nine o'clock in the night, Zhou Hao flipped through the book for a while, his eyelids seemed to be uncontrollable, he turned off the lamp on his end, and got into bed.
Jiang Yuqian turned sideways, "Did you sleep so early?"
Zhou Hao tucked into the quilt from the neck down, revealing only a face with two tired and sagging eyes.
"Well, a little sleepy."
Jiang Yuqian also turned off the desk lamp and got in.
"Don't get it wrong, it was my mother who called just now." Jiang Yuqian said with a heavy nasal voice.
Zhou Hao laughed in his heart. He slept because he was really sleepy. Dumbwood would connect these two irrelevant things together, and even gave a random and nervous explanation.
"So stupid." Zhou Hao whispered in a teasing tone.
"What did you say?" Jiang Yuqian's big hands followed his heart, and became unscrupulous in the quilt.
"Don't worry, I'm really sleepy."
"Who did you call stupid?"
"Stop making trouble, childish trick!"
Jiang Yuqian lightly bumped the little lunatic's forehead with his forehead, then smiled gently, a thin line extending from the corner of his eyes. The eye lines were very shallow and the light was very dim, but Zhou Hao still noticed it.
It turns out that this omnipotent man will also grow old one day.
Zhou Hao moved his body and put his whole body on it. He raised his face and reached out to touch Du Mu's face, chin, nose, eyebrows, and his caressing fingertips finally stopped at the corners of his eyes.
He stroked along the lines of the skin one by one, his movements were very light and gentle, he was going to smooth out the small gullies in this place, and he was going to touch it so that no trace of time could be seen.
Jiang Yuqian remained motionless, letting the hand gently brush over his face, stirring up the sensitive nerves under the skin. Taking advantage of the little lunatic not moving, he put the fingertip in his mouth, and used two rows of teeth to imprint the branding marks finely.
Zhou Hao suddenly started giggling, which was somewhat unpleasant.
Jiang Yuqian let go of the fingers in his mouth, and asked with a smile on his face, "What are you laughing at?"
"I was thinking, you are so old that you have lost all your teeth, and I am still young, what does that look like?"
Jiang Yuqian pinched the man's cheek, and pinched, "You are three years older than me, and you said it the wrong way."
"That's right." Zhou Hao regained his logic and remained silent for a moment.
The little lunatic's breath was on Jiang Yuqian's chest. As long as Jiang Yuqian lowered his head a little, he could see the little lunatic's stupid look, wondering what he was thinking.
"What are you thinking?"
Zhou Hao hugged him suddenly, his voice trembling, "I'm afraid you're getting old."
"I'm only thirty, and I'm young."
"When you smile, there are wrinkles at the corners of your eyes, right here." Zhou Hao gestured at the corners of his eyes.
"You just rubbed for a long time, are you rubbing my wrinkles?" Jiang Yuqian held the hand coaxingly, "There's nothing to be afraid of, people will grow old, and we, Haohao and I will grow old together .”
"Yes, everyone gets old..."
"Then... do you want to hurry up and enjoy life?"
"Yes," Zhou Hao said halfway through, and shrank back eagerly, "Jiang Yuqian, why are you taking off my pants!"
"Enjoy life."
"Go away! I want to sleep!" Zhou Hao lifted his pants, and pushed Dai Mu in disgust, "Go, go, move to the side."
A few days later, Jiang Yuqian received another call from his mother, who asked him to go home tomorrow weekend and bring that person with him. Jiang Yuqian didn't agree, and just found an excuse to reject his mother.
Since then, the phone has been ringing non-stop, perseverance can be learned.
Zhou Hao just came out of the bathroom, the tips of his hair were still dripping with water, "Why didn't you answer the phone?"
"It's my mother, she asked me to go home."
An indescribable light floated in Zhou Hao's eyes, and gradually dimmed, "I'll go to the kitchen to pour a glass of water."
The little lunatic left the room and gave him enough time. Now, he has more than enough time to deal with these trivial matters. In fact, it is not a trivial matter.
Jiang Yuqian called back...
===========
Zhou Hao was not satisfied with several changes of clothes. He chose left and right as if he was going to meet the emperor, but finally he put on the one Jiang Yuqian had chosen for him at the beginning. Black windbreaker, jeans, according to his words, when meeting elders, one must dress prudently.
On the way there, Zhou Hao had foreseen several possibilities, and the worst scenario was to force him to die. However, this possibility is almost zero, which is not in line with Jiang Mu's style.
Zhou Hao's face was quite calm, and he hummed while shaking his head. Only Jiang Yuqian could tell that this guy was very nervous.
"What if you get kicked out by your mother later?" Sure enough, he still didn't hold back his nervousness.
Jiang Yuqian laughed, and hit his head with a hammer, "If she dares to drive you away, you will abduct her son."
"This way works, I have to show some momentum."
When he arrived at the door of Jiang Yuqian's house, Zhou Hao was still frightened. He looked at Jiang Yuqian, "Did I ring the doorbell?"
Jiang Yuqian directly passed his hand and pressed it down, without giving the little lunatic any time to prepare.
"Don't be afraid, my mother doesn't eat people."
Zhou Hao couldn't hear other voices, only his inner self cheered up: Momentum! Never lose momentum!
It was Mother Jiang who opened the door, with a smile on her face, "Come in quickly."
It was completely beyond Zhou Hao's imagination, but in another way of thinking, it might be the calm before the storm. It can be seen that he can't relax at all.
The two of them changed their shoes, and several dishes were already placed on the table. At this time, the aunt came out from the kitchen with the dishes, "It's Yuqian who's back."
Jiang Yuqian smiled, "Coincidentally, I just got home in time for dinner."
His mother was busy preparing vegetables, and looked up at the two people standing there, "You two hurry up and wash your hands."
Zhou Hao thought he heard it wrong. For the first time, he saw a soft maternal nature in Mother Jiang, which was a kind of compassionate and tolerant mind. He was at a loss, unable to move his feet.
Jiang Yuqian patted him, "Your Auntie Dong has spoken, why don't you hurry up and wash your hands."
Zhou Hao secretly pursed his lips and went to the bathroom with Dai Mumu.
The water was rushing down, Zhou Hao looked at the man in the mirror who was washing his hands with his head bowed, then he rubbed the palms of his hands and the back of his hands once and for all, after washing them, he shook them slightly twice, and finally dried them with a towel.
Zhou Hao was stunned for a while, he was attracted by this series of actions for no reason, which belonged to life and came from life.
"Short, hurry up." Jiang Yuqian's urging voice interrupted him.
As for the jet of water that hit, he also followed the order of the man just now, shaking the palms and the backs of his hands a few times, and then wiped them dry. He secretly rejoiced at this move he learned secretly. The surprise came out of nowhere.
But it's not surprising, the original quirk is deeply rooted in him, and it won't change for a while. Of course, there is no need to change it.
Zhou Hao, who came out of the bathroom, was no longer the cramped just now, he showed a little confidence, and he became open-minded from the moment he sat down. Occasionally, he would meet Jiang Mu's eyes, unexpectedly peaceful, not as fierce as he imagined.
Jiang Yuqian kept picking up vegetables for him, and the porcelain bowl was piled up like a hill, so he couldn't stretch out his chopsticks. Of course he didn't know, it was done on purpose by Dai Mumu, to show his mother.
"Enough is enough, don't pinch me."
It wasn't until Zhou Hao said this that Jiang Yuqian stopped his deliberate actions, and then smiled at him with a kind of gentle eyes that could drown someone, and even wiped some of the fleshy foam from the corner of his mouth with his thumb .
"He's such a big man, he doesn't look good yet."
Jiang Yuqian acted very realistically in front of his mother and his nanny, anyway, Zhou Hao was stunned for a moment.
Mother Jiang only glanced at her for a moment, her expression was calm, and she continued to eat the rice in her bowl. Jiang Yuqian used his peripheral vision to perceive everything, and when the drama was over, he stopped.
After the meal, Mother Jiang called Jiang Yuqian upstairs, while Zhou Hao stayed downstairs alone. I was terrified in my heart, not sure that something big would happen.
Upstairs master bedroom.
Jiang's mother took out a small dark blue rectangular box from the drawer, and passed it to her son, "I have a necklace, which was intended to be passed on to my daughter-in-law, but I don't think I need it now. I went shopping last month. I bought a fountain pen for Xiao Zhou, let's treat it as a meeting gift."
"Mom..." Jiang Yuqian pursed his lips, unable to say many words.
"What to do, no matter how cruel a mother is, she can't even want her own son... I couldn't sleep well every day a while ago, so I want to be cruel to the end. You are more cruel than me. I have to agree. My heart is getting worse I'm in a panic. It's not right anyway, forget it, I'll just follow your heart, I can't control you anyway."
Jiang Yuqian shrank himself under his mother's gaze, his throat trembling, "Thank you, Mom..."
"Your father still has the same attitude on this matter, and I can't persuade him. Someday you go home by yourself and talk to him carefully. "
"Yeah." Jiang Yuqian stepped forward and hugged Jiang's mother for the first time in his adult life, "My mother is better."
"Now that my mouth is sweet, I wish I could be regarded as an enemy before." Mother Jiang said angrily.
…
Twenty-three minutes had passed, and Zhou Hao, who was sitting on the sofa watching TV, had been in a state of anxiety and absentmindedness, sometimes turning his head to look at the stairs, and sometimes touching his phone.
Looking back this time, Jiang Yuqian just walked down the stairs.
Zhou Hao stood up and looked towards Jiang Yuqian.
"Shall we go back now?" He asked like this, but in his heart he wanted to know what Mother Jiang said.
Jiang Yuqian nodded.
"No... don't you need to say hello to your mother?"
Jiang Yuqian shook his head, "No, let's go."
The hanging heart finally fell to the ground, but at the same time a big hole was made, it might as well be hanging forever.
Zhou Hao left the house unhappily, like a frosted eggplant. Seeing this, Jiang Yuqian suppressed a smile in his heart, and wanted to tease him for a while longer.
The two of them got into the car just like that, and when they were fastening their seat belts, Zhou Hao suddenly said, "Forget it, it seems that I can only abduct his son. Drive quickly, I will take you to elope."
Jiang Yuqian rubbed the little lunatic's hair, and handed him the pen case, "Your Aunt Dong gave it to you."
"You have prepared it in advance." Zhou Hao duplicity, hastily opened it to look.
"Then take it as my gift."
"You sent it."
"My mother said..."
Zhou Hao turned his face sideways, and hurriedly answered, "What are you talking about?"
"She asked us both," Jiang Yuqian moved closer to Zhou Hao's ear, "Be more restrained..."
