The Zhou family villa is very large, and the gardener's house is next to the garage, with vines hanging from it, and it has not been repaired in time, and it was beaten to pieces by the rain at this time. Although it was only in the afternoon, the lights all around the villa were on.
A clean stone road extends from the steps of the villa and diverges in the garden, leading to the gate of the courtyard and the entrance of a hut.
The narrow red iron door of the hut was always open, so that Uncle He, Aunt He and the driver could occasionally go in and have a rest.
The butler hurried out holding an umbrella, and saw the young man standing in front of the narrow iron gate with his schoolbag in one hand.
Quiet and nonchalant.
After seeing him coming out, the young man turned his gaze over and looked down at him slightly: "Uncle He, can I sleep here for the time being at night?"
Xue Xi knew that the housekeeper was going to leave later, so he hurried back to his own home to teach his child homework. He had to decide where to live before the housekeeper left.
It's good to live here temporarily. That is, two months later, before her parents came back, she had to find a way to discuss changing the room with her, lest she be scolded like in the previous life.
"Here?" The butler was taken aback for a moment.
Having been busy all day and dizzy, the boy didn't remind him, and he almost forgot to arrange his accommodation.
The boy's thoughts coincided with his. According to the young lady's temperament, I'm afraid she won't let a poor boy wearing worn-out shoes who has never met before live on the second floor. And he and Aunt He already lived on the first floor, so it's better to let him put his luggage in this room first.
Anyway, when the husband comes back, he will arrange a room for him. The lady has a big temper, so it's better not to make her own opinions.
The housekeeper looked at the room behind Xue Xi and felt that it could accommodate people, so he said to him: "Okay, you can stay here tonight, and I will call the husband tomorrow to ask about the situation. Today's incident happened suddenly, and I haven't had time to give you an answer." Prepare some daily necessities, take a look at what's in it, and use it to your advantage, I'll talk to Miss tomorrow, and I'll buy it for you."
Xue Xi nodded, then carried the schoolbag into the door and put it on the table.
He raised his eyes and said to the housekeeper, "Thank you, Uncle He."
The damage to the juvenile's vocal cords has not yet recovered, and his voice is still a little hoarse, but it is not unpleasant.
He was indescribably handsome and cold, yet restrained and polite.
Before going to pick up Xue Xi, the butler received a call from Mr. Zhou and got a general idea of the situation of this impoverished student who was about to receive funding from the Zhou family. Originally, in the housekeeper's imagination, the young man's family was in a difficult situation. He had just finished handling the funeral, and he should be exhausted from despair. His clothes and trousers should be worn out like crumpled leaves.
But unexpectedly, when he drove the car to the entrance of the hospital and lowered the car window to see the boy, the housekeeper was taken aback for a moment.
It's different from what I imagined.
He was indeed tired, but he was calm and reliable, his eyes were clean and pure, dark and bright.
It seems that even though I have been crushed by the fangs of life for three years, it has not been able to erase the tenacity in my bones.
There was a lot of noise at the entrance of the hospital, and there were quite a few children around his age. They either squatted together in twos and threes with their coats spread out, or stood with their feet crooked while frowning and supported by adults at home. He was the only one standing in the corner, with a clear outline, a cold face, indifferent and clear eyes, a very tall and straight height of 1.85 meters, and his school uniform was a bit old, but it was cleaner and tidy than everyone else. He didn't look around, but waited quietly .
It simply stands out from the crowd.
Therefore, the housekeeper didn't even need to look for him, so he felt that he was the one Mr. Zhou asked him to take home.
The housekeeper knew about his background, so he couldn't help sighing in his heart at this moment, what a crime, a good family was ruined.
Although he is funded by the husband, according to the temper of the young lady, he may not have an easy life in this family.
The butler sighed and said, "I'll talk about this later, let's go eat first."
Xue Xi put down his things and prepared to clean up the room. He made a desk and put the textbooks on it. He didn't expect to hear the butler's words, he was slightly taken aback.
Have a meal
Seeing his astonishment, the butler asked, "Did you already eat in the hospital?"
Xue Xi shook his head, but he still felt a little strange in his heart. In his last life, he had no food or room, so he waited for a long time on the first floor of the villa. Could it be that in this life, she didn't step into the porch, didn't step on her favorite carpet, and some changes happened in the dark.
He looked at the housekeeper, his throat was dry, he paused, and asked: "...Did Zhou Yizhi let me go?"
The butler remembered Zhou Yizhi's words just now, and said, "No, Mama He just cooked a few dishes, I think you probably haven't eaten yet, don't be hungry, let's eat together."
Xue Xi was silent for a moment, then said "um", and looked at the heavy rain under the eaves.
"Thank you, I'll be there later."
The restaurant in the villa is in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows on the first floor, and the long metal table is covered with light-colored tablecloths. There are several home-cooked dishes that look delicious in color, fragrance and taste. Among them, steamed pork ribs and several other sweets are placed on one side, and two dishes of vegetables are placed on the other side.
There is a candlestick next to the dining table, which has traces of burning, but it is not lit at the moment.
Just now Zhou Yizhi took out the lighter from the kitchen and lit two candles while Mama He went up to tidy up the empty room, wondering if it would be warmer, but immediately felt that it was too deliberate, so he blew it out hastily.
After a while, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a slender figure walking from the gardener's house holding an umbrella through the French windows, and she hurriedly sat down in her seat, brushing her hair behind her ears.
She picked up the chopsticks, picked up a vegetable and stuffed it into her mouth to chew, pretending that she had already started eating as if nothing had happened.
When he heard the door at the entrance was opened and the boy was standing at the entrance to change his shoes.
Zhou Yizhi felt as if a cat's tail was scratching his heart, and couldn't help turning his head to look over there quietly.
My brother seemed to have taken a shower and came back after changing into dry clothes. He was wearing a white long-sleeved T-shirt. The neck was slightly worn, but it was clean and tidy. His black hair had been washed and dried, and some drops of water fell on his fair neck.
At this time, my elder brother was only sixteen years old. Although his face was indifferent, his figure was tall, and he was a little too precocious, he still had the clean and green aura of a young man.
Xue Xi was slightly taken aback when he saw that there were cotton slippers of his own size at the entrance.
After changing, he looked up.
Zhou Yizhi, who was peeking at him, almost bumped into his dark eyes, was startled, inexplicably felt a little hot from his peeking, and turned his head hastily.
So in Xue Xi's eyes, the girl with a slender back was sitting gracefully at the dining table, eating indifferently without looking back. That action seemed to be a little impatient, and his elbow hit the plate beside him, making a noise.
Is she already so impatient before she walks over now
She hated eating with strangers very much, even in the last life, they sat at the same table only after a few months.
So Xue Xi wasn't sure if he should walk over.
Everything starts all over again, he doesn't want her to end up in a dead end just because she rejects him.
Xue Xi pondered for a while, then walked towards the kitchen.
According to what the butler just said, it seems that Mama He cooked the food and asked him to eat with Mama He.
Although they are under the same roof, if there is no positive communication, Yizhi will be less vigilant, like a panicked little beast worried that his parents will be snatched away.
…
And Zhou Yizhi's heart skipped a beat from the moment her brother came in. She felt his eyes fall on her back, and she became even more stiff. She couldn't help but slightly raised her neck, revealing her beautiful neck.
Just now, while Mother He was serving the dishes, she jumped upstairs to pick out a frigid silver necklace, which would make her neck look more slender and elegant.
However, never expected-
She felt like she was sitting on pins and needles here, but he who was at the entrance turned around and walked towards the kitchen!
Zhou Yizhi immediately turned to look at him, but he had already gone into the kitchen to find Mama He.
If you don't look for yourself, look for He Ma
Mama what is there to look for
Zhou Yizhi was both shocked and angry, what's going on
?
Is it true that men are all big pigs? The person you liked in the previous life comes back to life again, but you can't attract his attention? !
Zhou Yizhi couldn't help coughing, and said, "Mama He isn't here, she's upstairs."
