Outside the window, there is a dark sky and non-stop rain, with pea-sized raindrops crackling on the glass.
Xu Qing made a cup of hot coffee, put the cup on the window sill, picked up the winter melon lying in the nest with its paws curled up, ignored its resistance, hugged the plump meat ball on his lap and stroked it.
It's good to enjoy leisure time alone once in a while.
From last year to this year, almost a whole year, Jiang He gradually got used to this place, and for him, the cohabitation of two people has also become a habit.
Different from normal couples, the relationship between them is simple and complicated. They are both old fathers and boyfriends, and they must always pay attention to whether she is going astray. After all, no one can know what a low-level person in ancient times will become in modern times. predict.
Destruction and reconstruction of ideology is a difficult task, but it must be experienced. Only by changing thinking can people keep up with the times step by step.
The concepts, logic, and conclusions in my mind in the past... are not in line with the laws of modern society. It is easy to get lost in the world of flowers and flowers beyond understanding at first contact - ignorance is happiness, but that is the past, ignorance means little knowledge, I have never seen prosperity, so naturally I will not force it.
Nowadays, with the rapid development of information, you can connect with the world with just a mobile phone. You don’t need to understand the messy information, it will come wave after wave, and people will accept it passively.
Consumption, anxiety, comparison, injustice...
Without the ability to go upwards, but with a heart that is unwilling to be ordinary, you will only feel pain.
Being content with the status quo is not a derogatory term, Xu Qing thinks so.
On the contrary, in the case of a correct understanding of one's own abilities, this is a very rare advantage.
When there are 10,000 yuan, the living standard of 8,000 yuan is met, and the extra 2,000 yuan is happiness. Of course, some people will say that people who meet 8,000 yuan will not earn 10,000 yuan at all.
This is the difference between a wise man and an ordinary person. Xu Qing feels that she is a wise man, and making Jiang He a wise man does not mean that she has the ability to earn 100,000 yuan but only needs 10,000 yuan. Eight thousand or eighty thousand.
Controlling your own desires is far easier than controlling your life. If you adjust the two to a perfect ratio, you will naturally live easily.
Now it seems that Jiang He has always been easy to be satisfied, he was overthinking, but it's better to be prepared than to be at a loss when the time comes.
Xu Qing rubbed the chubby body of Winter Melon, looked at the rain curtain outside the sky, thinking about going outside to open the door now, will there be another Zhao He, Zhou He...
Forget it, life is good now, so don't come to some weird things.
After drinking a cup of espresso, the winter melon has changed from struggling at the beginning to making a purring sound—this means that it is enjoying itself, and it is more comfortable and happy to be served by the four-legged beast.
Winter melon is just ginger.
A smile appeared on Xu Qing's face, and he lowered his head and scratched the winter melon's chin a few times, feeling that raising a cat and raising Jianghe is similar.
I am looking forward to the day when Jiang He's transformation is completed.
Just like when he was a child, no matter what his mother did, he took it for granted, mopping the ground spotless and letting him walk barefoot, and he didn't have the slightest idea of arguing.
Then came the rebellious period.
Now, she will definitely scoff at her, and then persuade her not to do such a mess, and it won't be too tiring...
This is the ideological awakening, or gap.
Going through the rebellious period in the middle is a transition to independent consciousness. At that time, the ideas were not yet mature, and everything was self-centered. It seems ridiculous now, but I have to admit that it is an inevitable stage in life.
If you pass it, you will become an adult, if you can't, you will become a mother, and you will not be able to develop the ability to think independently. Of course, there are still some people who are more talented, and the rebellious stage has not yet been revealed, and this stage has ended.
Xu Qing recounted her own growth, like raising a child, looking forward to Jiang He's growth.
Jiang He should be the last one, there will be no such thing as a rebellious period... It seems good if there is one.
When the rain hit the window strings, Xu Qing's thoughts diverged and finally converged. He suddenly realized that he was affected by the old father's mentality of raising ancient people.
In terms of relationship, they are boyfriend and girlfriend, and they have been friends for almost a year now, but they haven't even touched Big Bear... well, they touched each other through several layers of clothes, so Jiang He held his arm later.
Although he didn't wear anything underneath when he went to bed at night—it was because he was not wearing anything, he was afraid of being kicked out by Jiang He, so he didn't dare to move.
It's okay if you wear it, even if you can't accept it, at least there is a buffer, at worst, you will be held down by Jiang He again.
Xu Qing reflected on herself, and acted when it was time to act, and could not be used to her.
When Jiang He came back, Xu Qing was still sitting in front of the window, picking winter melon.
She saw Xu Qing raised his head slightly, his side face was very quiet, looking up at the rain curtain outside, he was thinking about something, at the age of more than 20 years, he showed a kind of calmness of the elderly... or rather, he was old.
"I am back."
She was shaking the umbrella outside the door before stepping into the house, stuffing the umbrella into the small bucket next to it to dry, and then came over while taking off her coat.
Xu Qing's thoughts were interrupted, but he wanted to pick it up but couldn't remember where he just thought of. He shook his head and put the winter melon on the ground, pushed it towards Jiang He, and the winter melon obediently ran over.
"Have you fed it yet?" Jiang He picked it up smoothly.
"Not yet, wait until you come back."
"Should I buy a bucket for automatic feeding for it? It seems very convenient for me to see it on my mobile phone." Jiang He has already received income from the live broadcast this month, and always wants to add something to his home.
Xu Qing's expression became very interesting when he heard this, and he focused his gaze on the fleshy figure of the wax gourd, "Why don't you guess how it became so fat?"
"what?"
Jiang He was stunned, looking at the winter melon, he was a little puzzled, "It's not its fault that it's getting fat..."
"It's its fault! I bought an automatic feeding machine for it before, so that it can enjoy high technology... As a result, it will open the lid and put it at home to eat buffet every day."
Xu Qing looked at the big innocent eyes of the wax gourd, and looked at it blankly, "It's still very smart, and often steals it in the middle of the night. If I didn't catch it in the toilet, it would probably become a pig now."
Dong Gua looked away from the four-legged beast, and jumped out of Jiang He's hands, meowing and circling around her feet.
After Jiang He came, Jiang He took care of the feeding. At first, he wanted to find as many things to do as possible, but now both humans and cats are used to it.
The matter of the automatic feeding machine was in vain, and Jiang He was also afraid that the winter melon would turn into real meatballs if he ate the buffet at home every day, and he even lost a little bit of cat food today.
"I'm teaching Pingping how to cook, so I gave her my cooking notes."
Jiang He said, "If I can learn it, I will have the confidence to teach others how to cook, as planned."
"Why don't you just become a food blogger and let Gong Ping watch your videos to learn?" Xu Qing suggested.
He stood up and took the coffee cups to the kitchen to wash them. These were brought back by Jiang He from the lecture. There were three in a set, and they looked quite delicate.
"I have to do things one by one. My goal now is to save money, so everything has to be moved back."
"What are you saving so much money for?"
"it works."
Jiang He paused, and said, "Don't you want to buy a house?"
"I don't need you to buy a house, don't worry, your money is well saved."
"How can you not use mine?" Jiang He tilted his head when he heard the words. Of course, buying a house is for two people to buy together. Only Xu Qing excludes her. She doesn't think she can afford it on her own...
Even if they can afford it, it will be a long time later. Two people are easier than one person. How can Xu Qing exclude her
"Although we're not married yet, we're almost married." Xu Qing gestured around and explained, "After you came, I saved all the money I spent when I was single, like eating, going out, and You usually collect wool from the supermarket... From another perspective, I have a part of the money I save. It belongs to the two of us, so it doesn’t matter whether you use it or not. Let's see how many there are, and we will use them to decorate."
"Oh… "
Hearing that he made it clear, Jiang He immediately fell into a tangle.
She still has to save her dowry for herself. If she contributes, she will have the house, but the dowry will be gone.
If you don't contribute, you will have a dowry, but the house... always feels not so good.
It would be perfect if you get married first and then buy a house. The dowry and the house can be settled with the same money.
Jiang He reached behind his back and stroked his hair, trying to use his clever mind to come up with a perfect solution.
The rain is fading.
After thinking about it, Jiang He turned on the mirror to play Match 3 and turned down the sound, after all, the sound effects of this game are annoying.
"It seems strange for you to play this kind of game." Xu Qing moved a chair and sat aside to watch her play. A young couple was playing Little Butter at home...
Well, it's pretty normal.
But it's not normal for the two of them to have nothing happened so far.
For Jiang He, of course nothing happened, Xu Qing even took her leg and did strange things.
"I'm just playing Xiaoxiaole." Jiang He can't wait to use paper to paste the characters on the screen, and only the picture of Xiaoxiaole remains. "Can you go a little farther away to read a book? It's a little strange that you stay by the side."
Xu Qing sat beside him without moving, "You are only allowed to play, but I am not allowed to watch?"
"Then I won't play."
Jiang He originally wanted to play some fun by himself, but now Xu Qing came over, it was very awkward for two people to play.
It's like Gong Ping practicing yoga at home. It's okay if she does some exercises at home, but she always feels something wrong when she is next to her.
"Go ahead and play."
Xu Qing scratched her head, and decided not to disturb her, the young girl was playing with a little butter... It was a normal thing, which showed that she was becoming more and more like a modern person.
That Gong Ping, there may be hundreds of gigabytes of seeds and various games in the computer—he guessed with a dark mind, it would be great if Jiang He could cut it for her, and then the hard drive on Jiang He's computer Take it off and get her a new one, perfect.
People always like to fantasize, sitting on the sofa holding a notebook and wanting to take a picture, there is always a low voice from Jiang He's side, looking at the picture, I don't think it's anything, it's just a Xiaoxiaole attack, but he Without looking at the picture, thoughts will automatically flow in my head.
"Do you want to watch a movie together?"
Xu Qing flipped through the online disk, watched the movie inside, looked out the window and thought for a while, before sending an invitation to Jiang He.
"what movie?"
""Apple", a... blockbuster film about human nature."
"What's so good about apples?" Jiang He didn't care.
"Then I'll see for myself."
Xu Qing lay on the sofa bored, turned on the movie and began to watch, Jiang He was playing with Little Butter there, and he was watching a movie that was banned because it was too large, as if he was comparing who was more perverted.
But there is something pure between the two of them.
Jiang He pricked up his ears to listen to the opening music of the movie that Xu Qing was watching, and hesitated for a while not to come and watch it together. Anyway, Xu Qing will write movie reviews when the time comes, so she can just read what Xu Qing wrote, which is more interesting than watching the movie by herself.
"Apple" is an old movie, starring Bingbing and Dawei. This is a couple working in Beijing. Bingbing is drunk by the boss Jiahui and brought to the bed. Dawei, who cleans the glass outside, just happens to see her.
Worker: "Dude, look inside."
Dawei: "Damn it, it's exciting... Eh? Why does that one look like my wife?"
The whole film has been deleted and edited many times, but Xu Qing still enjoys watching it—when I was young, I used to look for this resource because of Dawei's ass and Bingbing's back, but now I watch it again, but I am attracted by the storyline.
Behind the prosperity of the metropolis, there are many lost hearts.
Bingbing was pregnant that time, and the owner Jiahui thought it was his offspring, because his wife couldn't give birth, so he was looking forward to this unexpected child, and surrounded him all day long asking about his health, watching with disgust, but There was nothing he could do, and later he went to the home of his boss, Jiahui, and was raped by the boss's forty-year-old daughter-in-law. It was regarded as revenge, and his legs were weak when he came out the next day.
Bingbing's stomach was getting bigger day by day, and the boss promised that if the baby was his, he would give the couple 120,000 yuan, which was a huge sum of money under the background at the time.
Later, when the child was born, it was very difficult to check the blood type, so he trembled, bought the doctor with money to change the blood type, and got the huge sum of money promised by the boss. Then a man ran away with the child and the money...
…
Halfway through, Jiang He heard that the voice was wrong, put down the keyboard and ran over, saw the screen on the computer, held back for a long time, and finally suppressed the word abnormal.
"Let's watch together?" Xu Qing generously extended the invitation—this is a serious movie, and he is not guilty at all.
"You pervert!"
Jiang He still couldn't hold back.
"You still played that game just now, calling me a pervert?" Xu Qing was very surprised, not understanding how Xiao Hemiao could be so double-standard.
"I'm just playing Match 3 Fun!"
"I'm just reading the story."
"..."
"..."
Jiang He was dragged to sit down by Xu Qing, and watched a movie together, faintly feeling that the development was not right.
Why are you watching this together
"Look, this is a very serious movie. Those things can be seen as embellishments, not the main body."
"Then why are you still filming?"
"Because it is necessary, just like love, the subject is love, but it cannot be without..."
"Huh?" Jiang He's eyes became dangerous, reminding him to organize his words.
"..."
Okay, rubbing your stomach and rubbing your legs is also good.
