To admit, or not to admit, that is the question.
Compared to wearing women's clothing myself, it shouldn't be too strange to suddenly have an extra girl in the family... right
Seeing Xu Wenbin's face darken, Xu Qing's thoughts changed sharply.
He could keep it a secret for a while but not for the rest of his life, as long as his old man met Aunt Cheng outside and chatted with them casually, those big mouths would definitely reveal the fact that there was a girl in the family.
"my friend's!"
"... Oh?" Xu Wenbin obviously didn't believe it, and waited for him to continue explaining with a sullen face.
"It's a long story. I have a friend, um... His sister, yes, my friend's sister, come to stay for a few days—Jiang He, open the door."
While talking, Xu Qing came to the door of the utility room, raised her hand and knocked on the door twice, still thinking about how to make her matter beautiful.
crunch.
The door of the room opened, and Jiang He appeared at the door, seeing Xu Qing winking at her, a little confused.
"This is my dad... Dad, her name is Jiang He."
Xu Qing bit the bullet and introduced, only hoping that Jiang He would not show any abnormalities.
"b..." Jiang He uttered, then stopped suddenly, turned his head and asked Xu Qing in a low voice, "What should I call you?"
"..."
Xu Wenbin, who was stunned there, had just eased his expression, but now his expression became complicated again, seeing that Xu Qing didn't speak.
Did this girl want to call her dad just now? !
Absolutely!
Xu Wenbin, who was over forty years old, suddenly wondered if his posture was wrong when he went out today. How could such a strange thing happen
"Cough... Uncle!" Xu Qing coughed lightly, pretending not to see his old man's eyes.
"Hello, Uncle."
"Hello."
Xu Wenbin suppressed his expression and responded nonchalantly.
"Anyway... that's probably how it is, she's staying here for a while." Xu Qing didn't say what it was like, anyway, he just fooled around.
"En." Jiang He nodded.
"Well, come here, come here for a while." Xu Wenbin pulled Xu Qing into the bedroom, turned around and saw Jiang He's eyes, "Jiang...Jiang He, right? It's okay, you're busy."
After closing the door, he turned around and stared at Xu Qing, his expression down again.
"what happened?!"
"That's it. A friend came to borrow... Don't run over and scare the girl. Give me the spare key too. Let her use it first, and return it to you when she leaves."
Xu Qing held out his hand confidently to ask for the key, and he had to bring it here, otherwise, when he was not around, no matter whether the old man or his mother came over and met Jiang He alone at home, it might cause unnecessary trouble.
"Your girlfriend." Xu Wenbin stared at him.
"no."
"She almost called me dad just now."
"..." Xu Qing scratched his head, "You read it wrong."
Xu Wenbin stared at him for another moment, skipping the subject, "How old is she?"
"eighteen."
"..."
"..."
"A crime..."
"What's the crime?" Xu Qing was in pain, "I just came here to excuse me - take ten steps back, and say a hundred steps, even if the two of us talk about friends, it's reasonable, reasonable and compliant, what crime?"
Xu Wenbin smacked his lips, not knowing what to say.
Came here to urge his son to pay the rent and find a job, but in the end a girl who almost called him Dad came out
He was in a bit of a mixed mood.
"You kid doesn't even have a job."
"It's fine if I can make money. What kind of job do you want? In the information age, you... tsk, I'll transfer the money to you, collect the rent, and keep the keys."
Xu Qing was too lazy to argue for who knows how many times, and he couldn't explain to his father that the up owner is also a job-even if he explained clearly, the old man would continue to argue about having no insurance, no pension, no social security and so on.
"How much is the water and electricity bill?"
"Two hundred and thirty-eight."
Ignoring the old man's entanglement, Xu Qing simply completed the transfer, took a look at him with the mobile phone, "Okay, give me the key, I have never heard that the landlord keeps a spare key to go in and out at any time."
"my house!"
"I rented it."
"..."
Xu Wenbin glared at him, then took out the spare key and handed it out, "Remember to pay on time, don't ask me to rush you every time."
"I didn't write the number on the contract, so I can just transfer it to you when I think about it."
Xu Qing was perfunctory.
The house is his own, and he has to rent it.
Not only do you need to rent, but it is also more expensive than the rent of the same type of apartment in the same building.
According to Xu Wenbin's words: If you find a job, you can live wherever you want. If you don't find a job, you have to pay the rent every month. Not only do you have to pay, but it is also more expensive than other people's homes.
Xu Qing asked why the price should be raised, it would be better to rent someone else's, Xu Wenbin said yes.
Xu Qing thought about it for a second, pondered over it, ho!
The old man was playing games with him. It was more expensive to rent his own house, but sooner or later even the money and the house would belong to him. If he rented someone else's house, the money would really belong to someone else.
"Where's my mother? Did you go to investigate again?"
"No, I'm playing mahjong at home." Xu Wenbin took out his phone and looked at it, "I told you to go back and have a meal, you..."
In the middle of speaking, he looked outside the door again, wondering if he should talk to Xu Qing's mother about this.
"I'm not free at the moment, wait until I'm free." Xu Qing could see what he was thinking at a glance, "This is a friend, not a girlfriend."
"Hmph, do you think your father looks like a fool?"
Xu Wenbin's face was dark, he paused, and pretended to be casual: "Be careful."
"Pay attention to the safety of ghosts! We are friends!"
Xu Qing turned around and opened the door helplessly, "Are you okay? Go back quickly if you're okay, I'm working here."
"I didn't say, you young people, talking too early is easy to cause problems. It's the same as that Zhu..."
"Dad." Xu Qing interrupted.
"... Forget it, let's not mention the past. Hurry up and find a job for me to go to work."
Xu Wenbin stood up and looked outside. The living room was empty. Jiang He had already returned to his room, so he walked out.
The son talked about an eighteen-year-old girlfriend. Originally, he didn’t need to worry about it, but it’s a bit too much to bring him to live with him at home. It’s a bit too much to want to care about it, but it’s normal to fall in love with him when the child is older... You have to go back and talk to Xu Qing and him. Mom discusses and discusses.
The two left the room together, Xu Qing was about to send his old man out when he suddenly remembered something.
"Wait... Dad, come in first."
He pulled his father back and closed the door, then turned around and groped around the bed.
"Why?" Xu Wenbin wondered.
"Here, look."
Xu Qing took out a pair of broken straw sandals, and put them in front of Xu Wenbin mysteriously, "Look, how much can you sell for an antique from the Tang Dynasty?"
The old man has been engaged in archaeology for half his life, and he is good at this, so it is right to ask him.
"Which dynasty are you talking about?" Xu Wenbin glanced at the straw sandals and dug his ears with his little finger, suspecting that he had heard it wrong.
"The Tang Dynasty, it should have been in Li Longji's time." Xu Qing vowed, if this thing can be sold for money, it will make a lot of money, and any ID card... can be smashed out.
Seeing that the old man's eyes became strange, Xu Qing was a little excited, "Look, is it worth money?"
"Go to Nanshan Second Hospital for a mental evaluation."
Xu Wenbin looked at him with complicated eyes.
I don't know if it's too late to have a second child.
