"There's an old saying, once the show starts, even if no one listens, it must be finished, understand?"
"not understand."
"It's just that we hold arms and hold hands. This is normal. Don't keep looking down at my hands, be normal." Xu Qing had a good reason, and pulled Jiang He slowly towards home.
"It will be convincing later, so my dad and the others won't run to our place... Cough, were you a little nervous when you saw him last time?"
"Yeah." Jiang He honestly admitted that Xu Wenbin really made her a little embarrassed at that time.
"It's fine to eat normally after a while. I don't think he's much better. His expression looks like he's seen a ghost... My mother is chatting with you and if you can't answer it, just make it perfunctory. Do you know how to be perfunctory?"
Seeing Jiang He's bewildered look, Xu Qing couldn't help but slowed down again, thought for a while and said, "Follow her words, affirm first, then deny, for example, if she asks you: Are you not a local? Don't say 'hmm ’, that would be disingenuous.”
"What do I say?"
"That's it." Xu Qing coughed lightly and demonstrated, "Yes, I'm from another place, not from the local area."
"..."
"Didn't learn?"
"Is there any difference?" Jiang He wondered.
"It's a big difference. If you want to say 'um' or nod, then she will definitely not be satisfied, but if you reply her with a few words, it will be very sincere."
Jiang He thought about it carefully, and it seemed that it was better to speak longer, and learned a new skill.
"Besides, if she asks what you are doing, don't talk about playing games, just talk about doing your own things."
"Something about myself?"
"Yes, some things about myself. If she asks what it is again, just say what you did." When Xu Qing arrived at the door of the house, he remembered that there were many unprepared things. These things he hadn't thought of before, and now it's impossible to think of them impromptu. return to.
When Uncle Qin mentioned it another day, the two of them went downstairs and ran away again. Hey, maybe what Xu Wenbin thought, not to mention that Zhou Suzhi had already bought vegetables.
"What did you do?" Jiang He was a little confused by his tongue twister.
"Just doing what I do."
"… Oh."
"Have you learned it?"
"I seem to have learned it." Jiang He half understood.
"Anyway, adapt to the situation. With me here, you can just be a good girlfriend."
As Xu Qing was talking, he had already arrived downstairs. The neighborhood is not big, and it would take only a short time to slow down. He looked up at the upstairs, and he took Jiang He's sleeve and walked up.
Bringing your girlfriend home, you have to work hard to get some benefits, it's best to pay the rent and just go whoring for nothing.
"Mom, I'm back."
When he opened the door, the smell of incense came from the kitchen. Jiang He sniffled subconsciously, and glanced over there, meeting Zhou Suzhi who was half out of her body.
"This is my girlfriend, Jiang He, I'll bring you here to have a look." Xu Qing carelessly pulled Jiang He over, "This is my mother, just call me Auntie."
"Hello, Auntie." Jiang He remembered Xu Qing's words.
"Hey, hello, hello, the food is not ready yet, so sit down first." Zhou Suzhi greeted her with a shovel, feeling that her image was not very good, she put down the shovel again, wiped her hands with her apron, and came out, "Sit, sit."
"Do you want her to help you? She always cooks delicious food." Xu Qing said.
"Go, sit down." Zhou Suzhi gave him a sneaky look, and then secretly looked at Jiang He.
Hey, it looks better than the picture.
"You guys watch TV and just wait for the food... Old Xu! Old Xu! Xu Qing is back."
"I heard."
"Dad, you've met this Jiang He." Xu Qing was very happy. For some reason, every time he brought Jiang He to stand in front of Xu Wenbin, he felt inexplicably happy.
The old man has studied history all his life, and now he can't recognize a historical figure right in front of him.
This comes from Nizi who was his girlfriend more than a thousand years ago, oh, this feeling.
"Hello, Uncle."
"Hello."
Xu Wenbin, who came out of the study, nodded to Jiang He, asked the two to sit down, took a puzzled look at Xu Qing while pouring water from the teapot, "What are you happy about?"
"I'm happy, this is my girlfriend."
Xu Qing helped Jiang He take off his hat and earmuffs, and Jiang He immediately felt a lot more relaxed. The heating in the room here is much warmer than that of where they live, and it feels a little hot when they come in.
"..."
Xu Wenbin and Xu Qing are just the opposite, seeing his complacent look makes him very uncomfortable, and he doesn't know why.
Born to be aggressive.
"Just treat it as your own home, come and eat oranges." Xu Qing ignored Xu Wenbin's entanglement, and took out an orange from the fruit plate and peeled it, just like at home—this is another home.
Although abducting Jiang He into a girlfriend is just a plan and has not been successful, but he has food and lodging every day, so it is reasonable to pretend to be a girlfriend to help him get a rent reduction or exemption.
Anyway, it will be a family in the future... Xu Qingchao Xu Wenbin laughed again, handed the peeled orange to Jiang He, and picked up the remote control to turn on the TV.
Xu Wenbin was a little uncomfortable. He and Xu Qing had nothing to talk about. Every time they met, they would just talk about work. After a few words, they had nothing to say. Now that there was another Jiang He, they had nothing to talk about. They sat on the chair Look at this, look at that, want to get up and go back to the study, but feel not very good.
What the hell... I knew I wouldn't let this kid bring his girlfriend back, it's embarrassing.
"I just met Uncle Qin down there, and I raised a dog for a walk there, and you can raise one too." Xu Qing pressed the remote control a few times, and talked to Xu Wenbin.
"I'm not as free as he is." Xu Wenbin said.
"How fun, named Xiongba, you raise two, one named Bu Jingyun, the other named Nie Feng, walk with him every day."
"What's going on in your mind every day?"
Xu Wenbin was very puzzled. This kid had no shape since he was a child. He thought he would be stable when he grew up, but that's what happened? And find a girlfriend...
He always thinks about how to make trouble when someone raises a dog.
"Isn't it fun?"
"Where is the fun?"
"This is called a generation gap." Xu Qing shrugged at Jiang He, regardless of whether she understood or not, raised his hand and took off his coat and put it on a chair beside him, "Are you hot? Take off your coat."
Xu Wenbin was stalked by him here, and was about to give him a lecture, when Jiang He suppressed his words again, pushed his glasses, and watched him help Jiang He take off his heavy down jacket.
Oh, the sweater is also for couples.
Xu Qing kept his hands on. After sharing an orange with Jiang He, he stuffed another banana into his mouth, handed one to Jiang He, and motioned to Xu Wenbin with another one. Seeing him shaking his head, he ate his own.
On the TV, the guests and hosts were talking about the mountains, and the voices kept ringing.
Jiang He glanced at Xu Qing, then at Xu Wenbin, lowered his head, peeled the banana and ate it.
There was the sound of zila cooking in the kitchen, and the fragrance wafted faintly.
There are four people in this family, three are sitting in the living room, one is busy in the kitchen, and they didn't speak for a while.
