At the end of autumn and the beginning of winter, the leaves of the trees have begun to wither.
After a rain in the beginning of winter, the temperature dropped sharply. Xu Qing prepared down jackets and warm clothes early, as well as large cotton socks, pink and blue.
There is also a cotton hat with a pompom on the head.
It's really a miracle Nuannuan... Xu Qing took a few photos of Jiang Hekaka who was in winter clothes with her mobile phone, feeling satisfied.
"Look, if you go out by yourself, won't you freeze to death now?"
He pointed to a layer of frost on the window and sighed pretendingly, "Fortunately, this hero is thoughtful... By the way, can you resist the cold with that kung fu?"
"It's a little more resistant to freezing than you." Jiang He played with the small ball on his head, and the fluffy feel was good.
"Hey, don't you freeze your toes with your straw sandals?"
"..."
"Okay, I'm going out. If I'm hungry, I can cook for myself. You don't have to cook mine. There are still tomatoes and eggs in the refrigerator."
Xu Qing put on her luggage and ordered to go out.
More than half of November has passed, and he hasn't paid the rent yet. At first, he wanted to transfer it directly to the old man and the others, but then he thought about the rent reduction for him last month, so it's better to go there.
In case mom and dad would run over again—living with Jiang He... Bah, although the matter of taking Jiang He in is normal to Jiang He, it is still a bit abnormal for people who don't know her background.
Lonely men and widows live together day and night under the same roof, is it okay? I don't believe it.
Unless you are as stupid as Winter Melon, you can reluctantly accept his rhetoric.
It is rare for Zhou Suzhi to stay at home and watch TV instead of going out to play mahjong with the old lady—probably because Xu Qing said in the group of "love each other as a family" that she would come over.
"Just yourself?"
Seeing Xu Qing coming back, she turned her head and looked out the door, and seeing Xu Qing closing the door just like that, she couldn't help asking.
"if not?"
"Where's your girlfriend?"
"... At home, I didn't let her come over." Xu Qing was talking nonsense against his conscience because of the rent reduction.
Turning around and going to the study to have a look, he changed the subject and said, "My dad hasn't come back yet?"
"I found some ruins, I've been busy for several days—no, why didn't you bring your girlfriend over?"
"It's called an ancient tomb. What ruins... are you exploring?"
"I said, why did you come here without that girl?" Zhou Suzhi repeated with an emphasis.
"The ancient tomb is pretty good, and when some treasures are dug up, my dad will be able to publish in the newspaper... Tsk, don't stare, isn't it just a girlfriend, why bring it here
If I eat your food, my dad will have to blame me again, and I will take my girlfriend to eat with me. It's too hard to eat old food. "
When Xu Qing came back, he couldn't stay idle. He touched here and there, took a carton of milk from the refrigerator, took an orange from the fruit plate, wandered to the kitchen and lifted the lid to look, "Hungry, haven't you cooked yet?"
"No, eat ass."
"..."
Xu Qing, who had already seen the ribs in the refrigerator, shrugged and was not in a hurry. Anyway, if he ate early, he would have no ribs, and if he ate late, he would definitely have ribs when his father came back.
The couple's life together often made him think that he was picked up, that his parents were the true love, and that he was just an accident—of course, there was also Xu Qing's own fault, when he used to smoke, drink, and fight at the age of two beeps. The couple were so angry that they almost had a second child.
Do it.
"No, you two live together at such a young age?" Zhou Suzhi felt uncomfortable seeing him slumped on the sofa peeling oranges, "Where is that girl coming from? Don't tell me where you picked it up."
"Cough..." Xu Qing choked, "What are you talking about, where can I find a living person? It's... just fine."
"How did it work? Why did you just live together?"
Zhou Suzhi asked him to bring his girlfriend over just to see how the girl was doing. If it was a young lady who was brought back from outside, immediately ask Xu Wenbin to increase the rent for this girl, double it, when and when Descending back again—
Looking at the photos, it's pretty good, so it shouldn't be so. She just thought about it and didn't go to the door for a surprise inspection.
"Well...she is lonely in a strange city and works here. I usually help out or something, and take care of her as a younger sister." Xu Qing opened his mouth and came, but he talked nonsense: "Too much care, come and go, just come and go. So what, it’s fine.”
"that's it?"
"that's it."
"What's wrong with her?" Zhou Suzhi didn't believe it.
"In the ravine, when I saw her, the shoes were worn out and I couldn't bear to change them, and the clothes were patched, but it was miserable... I couldn't even eat enough."
"..."
Zhou Suzhi squinted at him, "It's over, is there still something like this?"
"Not at all, really, you didn't see that poor one." Xu Qing touched his conscience and told the truth.
"Flicker, keep fooling, look at the temperament and appearance of that photo..."
"Yes, do you think her temperament is different from others? Children from poor families have long been in charge of their families, so they must be different from modern girls who have nothing to eat, drink, play games and go shopping. Wait for the next time, and bring them here next time." I'll let you see it and you'll know."
What Xu Qing said seemed to be true—it was indeed true, there was nothing wrong with it.
If you are careful, you can feel the inexplicable traits in her after having a meal together. It's not too strange, but it's not the same.
"Then you live together... what's the plan?" Zhou Suzhi asked.
"What's the matter? Wait a minute, we didn't sleep together, she slept in the utility room, the two of us are innocent." Xu Qing was almost taken into a ditch.
"Innocent?"
"Clean and innocent, with a clear conscience."
"Tsk." Zhou Suzhi showed a disdainful expression that only a woman can make.
"It doesn't matter if you are innocent or not, you have to pay attention."
"Pay attention to what?"
"What do you say?"
"..."
Xu Qing's egg hurts, she really didn't think of going there just now.
It's obviously fake, he and Jiang He are in a relationship, be careful.
"Bring it over next time to have a look. If it's not suitable, you can split it up as soon as possible."
Zhou Suzhi made a conclusion, checked that the time was about the same, got up and went to the refrigerator to take out the vegetables and prepare to cook.
"What if it's suitable? Ask my dad to waive the rent for me?"
"Let's talk."
Zhou Suzhi paused, then turned around and asked, "You haven't looked for a job yet?"
"I'm looking for it."
Xu Qing is perfunctory, he is fundamentally not suitable for a nine-to-five job, since now he can make a living on the Internet, he should use his strengths and work hard, it is not too late to find a job if it is impossible .
Life is my own, even if it is like what Xu Wenbin said in the future, I can’t even get enough food and clothing without a serious job, it’s my own choice, I don’t blame anyone—
Taking a step back, if I let go of the industry that I am already on the road and I like very much, and listen to them to find a so-called "serious job", I will still have a mid-life crisis in the future, and who is to blame when I regret it? Blame Dad? Blame mom
I can only blame myself, why I didn't persist in the first place.
Adults should be responsible for themselves. Listening is a kind of responsibility, and not listening is also a kind of responsibility. Left and right are your own life, whether it is good or bad, you will suffer it yourself.
Zhou Suzhi didn't know what he was thinking, she was still thinking about work, and she was worried that he would go astray, just like a bastard, but now she looks like a normal person, but in the end she doesn't do serious things, and stays at home every day. .
"Mom, times have changed. Now the country doesn't divide houses or give daughters-in-law, and everyone has to earn it by themselves. It's different from my father at that time. The iron rice bowl is not so popular."
"At least you won't starve to death."
"I'm not starving to death now."
"Just arguing, you... and that so-and-so, you two live together and stay at home every day, what good can it do? It's unreliable."
Xu Qing tapped the oranges and stood at the door of the kitchen with a smile, "Why are you talking about it? We rely on our skills to make money, at least better than my dad. Look at my dad, he just caught up with the good times, and he is dividing the house and making money. Daughter-in-law's…”
"Who sent a daughter-in-law? I was sent to your father by the state?"
"That's right, I heard what my dad said, what was the name of your art troupe at that time, a group of men and a group of women, get to know each other and exchange feelings, and then naturally see each other...
The country specially arranges a blind date meeting for you, isn't that called a hair? "
"Go, go, make trouble, watch your TV!"
Zhou Suzhi was so annoyed that she took the ribs and chopped them vigorously.
Anything is issued by the country, they call it free love.
