Everyone inside and outside the door was stunned.
Before the two parties could say hello, Xu Huaishi let out an extremely ambiguous "wow", which made Ruan Yu "wow" awkwardly, and swallowed back the word "auntie" that had come to his lips.
On the contrary, Tao Rong smiled, relieved her uneasiness, and said, "Hi, I'm Huai Song's mother, is Huai Song here?"
Ruan Yu followed with a smile: "I remember you, Auntie. He is in a hurry to go back to San Francisco, and he may just miss you."
"Urgent matter?" Tao Rong's face changed slightly, "Did something go wrong at work?"
"No..." Seeing that standing like this is not a problem, Ruan Yu stepped aside and said, "You and Huai Shi come in first."
She invited the two to sit on the sofa and told them to put down the big and small bags.
Tao Rong explained to her: "I'm afraid that he told us in advance that he would come. He didn't want us to bother him, so he drove a long distance back to Suzhou City, so he came without saying hello."
Ruan Yu found that Tao Rong lowered her posture when she said this, as if Xu Huaisong's mother was not as close to him as a woman who appeared in his room.
After all, they have been separated for too many years, and the mother and son seem to be a little separated.
Ruan Yu hurriedly explained for Xu Huaisong: "He was thinking about you and planned to go back to Suzhou City, and he bought all the gift boxes." He pointed to the gift boxes piled up in the living room, "It's just that tomorrow or the day after tomorrow is not decided, so I haven't told you yet."
Tao Rong took a look from afar and smiled: "This child..."
Ruan Yu saw the two sitting dryly, got up and said, "I'll make you a cup of tea."
As she spoke, she went to work at the kitchen counter. After a while, she heard footsteps behind her. Turning her head, she saw Tao Rong coming forward unnaturally. She lowered her voice and asked Chi, "What happened to his father in San Francisco?" ?"
Ruan Yu was originally hesitant to tell the truth because he didn't know Xu Huaisong's current family situation, but Tao Rong seemed to want Xu Huaishi to know, so he nodded slightly, and said softly, "It seems to be a relapse."
Xu Huaishi, who was playing with her mobile phone over there, heard this slight movement, and turned around and muttered: "Mom, what are you whispering to sister?"
Tao Rong turned her head and glared at her.
Ruan Yu changed the subject with a smile: "You guys have come all the way, you should call Huai Song."
"No." She waved her hand, "He must be in a hurry to drive right now, so don't tell him, we'll be leaving right away." Then she looked down at her hands tearing apart the tea leaves, "Don't be too busy .”
Ruan Yu didn't insist, and poured her a glass of boiled water. Seeing that she was out of her mind when she took it, she added in a low voice, "Don't worry too much."
Tao Rong, who was seen through her mind, smiled slightly, and after a while regained her spirits, she said, "How are you getting along with Huai Song?"
Ruan Yu choked, knowing today's situation, it would be difficult for a parent not to misunderstand, and was considering how to explain it, but Tao Rong seemed to have misunderstood her silence, and quickly said: "If you think there is something wrong with him, please be more tolerant. , This child has never talked about friends before, so he may not understand many things."
Ruan Yu was stunned, and subconsciously blurted out: "He hasn't talked about it for so many years?"
Speaking of this, Tao Rong was a little less restrained before, and she also told her: "As far as I know, it is not easy. It is not easy for Chinese to be lawyers in the United States. If you don't show some ability to convince the public, you will be discriminated against many times. .Especially after his father is like that, he has to rely on himself in everything, and he puts all his energy into his career, so how can he think about talking about friends. "
Ruan Yu said "hmm". At this time, what she cared about was not Xu Huaisong's relationship history, which she had been curious about for a long time.
My heart is sour and astringent, I can't describe the feeling.
Tao Rong was still pouring water on her heart: "Actually, Huai Song has some flaws in character." She said as if she was afraid of scaring Ruan Yu, and explained, "I don't mean pathological flaws."
Ruan Yu turned his head: "Huh?"
Tao Rong smiled and sighed: "He told you about me and his father?"
She nodded.
"We had disagreements before he entered junior high school, which more or less affected his growth, so he inevitably has a timid side in his character, which may sometimes make you feel that he is not direct and decisive, but it is often his He cares too much about the performance of one thing. I hope you will forgive me, this is because his father and I did not do well."
Ruan Yu patted the back of Tao Rong's hand lightly to express his relief: "I see, don't worry."
The two chatted for a while, and Ruan Yu's cell phone rang.
It was Liu Mao's call, asking if she was still in the hotel.
"exist."
"Then you just wait there, Xiao Chen will be here soon, Huai Song asked him to take you home."
Ruan Yu choked: "It's a big festival, why bother Xiao Chen, I will go back by myself, you call..." She paused, glanced at Tao Rong, and asked her with her mobile phone, "Auntie, what are you doing?" came here?"
"Take the high-speed rail."
"Then when we go back?"
"Oh yes." Tao Rong turned her head and said to Xu Huaishi who was on the sofa, "Huaishi, hurry up and see if you can change your return ticket earlier."
No need to read, according to the passenger flow during holidays, it is impossible to change the ticket in advance at this time, unless you stand all the way back.
Ruan Yu picked up the phone again: "I really need to trouble Xiao Chen, you call him over."
Chen Hui arrived at the hotel soon, Ruan Yu greeted him, thanked him repeatedly, and sent Tao Rong downstairs who insisted not to eat here.
Xu Huaishi stopped all the way when he wanted to speak. When he came to the side of the car, he grabbed Tao Rong's arm: "Mom... I've come here, can I play here for two days?"
"Can mom leave you alone in Hangzhou? Go back with me and come back another day when your brother is around."
Xu Huaishi puffed up and followed her into the car. Halfway through the ride, she turned her head and gave Ruan Yu a pitiful look.
After receiving her distress signal, Ruan Yu was silent, but took a step forward: "Auntie, if Huai Shi wants to stay in Hangzhou for two days, I will take care of her."
Xu Huaishi didn't know about her father's affairs, unlike Tao Rong's preoccupation, she was happy to stay.
But when Ruan Yu asked her where she wanted to go, she shook her head: "It's too hot, and the holiday attractions are crowded with people. I actually just want to chat with you, sister. Let's go back upstairs or go to your house."
Unexpectedly, it is also a house.
Ruan Yu thought for a while, and called his parents, saying that something happened temporarily and he had to go another day, and then asked, "Is that at your brother's place, or at my house?"
"How far is it from your house?"
"If there is no traffic, it will take half an hour by car."
"It's definitely blocked! Forget it, I almost vomited in the car."
The two finally returned to the room the same way without pursuit.
Xu Huaishi put down the schoolbag on her shoulder, took out a stack of white papers, and said bitterly: "Sister, you don't have to take care of me, I have homework to take care of, you are busy with yours."
Ruan Yu laughed.
Xu Huaishi might have mistakenly thought that she was living with Xu Huaisong, but she didn't know that she had nothing to do here.
What can be done? She had nothing to do for a while, then remembered the orange cat, opened the bedroom door and saw that it was nesting inside.
She took the cat out, and when Xu Huaishi saw it, she was surprised and said: "Wow, my brother has really changed his sex. He used to be so annoying about grooming cats and dogs!"
Ruan Yu was taken aback.
Didn't Xu Huaisong really like cats when he was in high school
Xu Huaishi excitedly ran over to play with the cat, asking, "What's its name?"
"Now there is only an English name, how about giving it a Chinese name, and do as the Romans do?"
"Then you take it, sister, I heard from my brother that you are a writer, and you are educated."
How can a cat name be cultured
Ruan Yuxin came right away: "It rhymes with Tiffany, and its name is Pipi. Um...Xu Pipi?"
"Okay, okay, my last name!"
Ruan Yu smiled "hehe", and didn't say "it's your brother's surname" to hurt her. Unexpectedly, "If you want Cao Cao, Cao Cao will be there", and answered Xu Huaisong's call the next second.
She immediately asked, "how is uncle?"
"Still in the emergency room," Xu Huaisong comforted her in turn, "It will be fine."
She said "um" in a low voice: "then concentrate on driving and stop making calls."
"I heard from Chen Hui that you and Huai Shi are with me now?"
"Yes, the combined age of both of us is over forty, so you don't need to worry about it."
Xu Huaisong seemed to smile helplessly: "I'm afraid you'll be bored, so let me tell you, my computer password is also your birthday, and you can use whatever you want in the room."
After hanging up the phone, Ruan Yu finally found something he could do. With his permission, he moved his computer to the living room, but he paused when he entered the password.
Xu Huaisong set her birthday as a password for her mobile phone and computer, so, does that payment password have any special meaning, and is it related to her
309017…
Out of such a trace of narcissism, Ruan Yu began to apply this string of numbers to himself desperately.
30—Can't think of one.
90—No clue.
17—she quite likes this number, because it is her high school student number.
Thinking of this, she suddenly froze in front of the computer.
She is No. 17 in Class 309.
Does this string of numbers mean this
But she didn't disclose such detailed real information in the novel, where did he find it
Ruan Yu couldn't figure it out, and he couldn't ask Xu Huaisong about such an insignificant matter at this juncture, so he had to hold back for the time being.
When it was time for dinner, because Xu Huaishi was too lazy to go out and was rushing to finish the papers, she asked someone to bring some fresh food for her.
Xu Huaishi was distracted by the aroma of the dishes, put down her Chinese papers and ran to the kitchen counter, watching her skillfully fry the salmon, she was so excited that she jumped "wow" and said, "My brother was really unlucky for eight lifetimes to find my sister in this life. Such a treasure!"
Ruan Yu was busy frying fish, smiled and didn't deny it.
This smile, and then reflected by the sunlight outside the window, is really tender.
Xu Huaishi couldn't help but said: "Your profile is so pretty, can I take a short video of you and send it to Moments?"
Ruan Yu smiled easy-goingly: "Yes."
Xu Huaishi recorded a profile video of her, with words in Moments: "Maggie Cheung, Gao Yuanyuan, and Wang Zuxian who are coveting my brother's beauty are all interested, and this is enough to be my future sister-in-law. Goodbye to you all!"
After showing off her future sister-in-law, Xu Huaishi happily lay down on the window sill, waiting to be worshiped by her female classmates. When she looked down, she found a pleasant surprise: "Ah, sister, come and see!"
Just as Ruan Yu put the fish on a plate, he walked to the window sill and looked out. He found that the gardener in charge of the hotel's green area was watering the trees with a high-pressure water gun. Under the sunlight, there was a rainbow in the spray of water.
It seemed to herald some good news.
She hurriedly turned around to get her mobile phone, took a picture of this scene, and was about to send it to Xu Huaisong, but she was worried about disturbing his driving, until 2:30 in the afternoon, after confirming that he had already taken off, she sent this message: "Send you off. "
Knowing that he was going to get off the plane in more than ten hours, Ruan Yu didn't bother with his phone, and at night, he lay on the same bed with Xu Huaishi.
Because she was worried about staying in the hotel alone, she stayed, asked the cleaning staff to change the sheets, and brought two quilts.
Xu Huaishi was happy to be close to her, and it would be better to sleep with her under the quilt, and would not sleep at night, chatting excitedly with her at night, telling her gossip about the school.
Ruan Yu received a message from Li Shican in the evening, and invited her to have lunch at noon tomorrow. She originally planned to make lunch for Xu Huaishi then go out, but now she was pestered by her, and she really felt that she might fall asleep the next day. Great noon.
It was past one o'clock in the morning, and she yawned: "Okay, okay, let's talk tomorrow and sleep."
Xu Huaishi was still awake, and said, "Sister, go to bed first, and I'll check Weibo for a while."
Ruan Yu let out a "huh", turned over, and was about to fall asleep in a daze, but heard the people around him suck in cold air.
She woke up from the fright, and turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"
Xu Huaishi clutched her phone and said, "I saw a warrant on Weibo, wow, Hangzhou is so dangerous, there is a murderer absconding, luckily we didn't go out today."
Now is the information age, and it is not uncommon for any crime to be known on the Internet. Ruan Yu yawned and said, "The law and order in Hangzhou is pretty good." After speaking, he fell asleep.
Because of this, she didn't hear Xu Huaishi's muttering afterwards: "Hey... why do I think this suspect's one-inch photo looks familiar?"
