With apprehension, Zhang Ruolin pushed open the gate of the courtyard.

"Coming back?" Zhao Jianguo shouted loudly.

Zhang Ruolin said "um", walked to the house and put away the umbrella, stood at the door and stomped on the snow on his feet, looked at Zhao Jianguo, who was full of smiles, and glanced at him.

"It's cold! Come in and sit down to eat, I'll have a hot pot tonight, I went to buy big bones, and I've stewed them until now." Why didn't you come back at noon?"

"I didn't come back when I had something to do at school at noon. You went out on the streets?"

Zhao Jianguo smiled and said "oh", a low-level lie, he has lived here for so long, even if it rains heavily, he comes back to eat, I really don't know why?

"Hurry up and eat, you'll be warm when you're done. Hurriedly reached out and took the schoolbag on Zhang Ruolin's shoulder and hung it on the nail on the wall.

"Didn't you stop going out on the streets?"

"It's okay, I'm walking slowly. Zhao Jianguo sat down, picked up a spoon and scooped a bowl of bone broth, and put it on the table of the coal stove, "Drink a bowl of soup first, wait for the soup to eat, today the market sells beef again, I bought fifty catties of beef back, and half a mutton, anyway, the weather will not be bad, freeze it and eat it slowly." ”

Zhang Ruolin let out an "oh" and glanced at the flashlight on the table, didn't this guy see it? How could it be, it was so obvious there, how could this guy not see it?

Sitting down, Zhang Ruolin took the chopsticks handed by Zhao Jianguo and glanced at him, what does it mean?

Zhao Jianguo took the soup spoon and put it in Zhang Ruolin's bowl, "It's too hot, drink it with a spoon." ”

"Hmm. ”

"I drink a little liquor, it's too cold, my quilt is too thin, even if I sleep in your room, it's cold at night, if I sleep in the bed, I won't drink it." ”

Zhang Ruolin glanced at her.

Zhao Jianguo picked up the wine bottle and the enamel teacup, poured some wine into the cup, glanced at Zhang Ruolin, and handed the quilt to her, "Just one sip, not much." The teacup was placed on the small table next to it and the lid of the bottle was closed.

"There was no cooking at noon, there were vermicelli, some vermicelli were not enough to eat, and there were potatoes. ”

Zhang Ruolin nodded, scooped a spoonful of soup with a spoon and blew it, put it in his mouth, drank a few sips, picked up the chopsticks and picked up the bones and gnawed the meat on it, and glanced at Zhao Jianguo from time to time, doesn't this guy have anything to say?

Seeing Zhao Jianguo pick up a bone and prepare to put it in her bowl, Zhang Ruolin hurriedly said, "I won't eat it, it's enough." ”

"Eat more. ”

"Enough is enough, enough is enough. ”

Zhao Jianguo picked up a plate of mutton cut into thin slices on the table and put it in front of Zhang Ruolin, "Eat mutton, mutton is the warmest to eat in winter, and coriander." ”

"You can just eat yours, don't worry about me. ”

"I don't want to care about you, but you also have to eat more, you see that your food is getting smaller and smaller now, how can this work? If you can't eat, can your body be healthy? It's not that our family doesn't have that condition. ”

Put the mutton with big chopsticks in the pot, and put some coriander in it.

"Would you like some vinegar and sesame oil?"

Zhang Ruolin shook her head.

"In the past two days, I have all the condiments, and then I will eat hot pot in winter, which is convenient and has many varieties to eat. ”

Zhang Ruolin nodded, she also likes to eat hot pot in winter, but she rarely goes to hot pot restaurants to eat, and she makes it at home.

I put a piece of mutton in my mouth, a little stiff, picked up the old vinegar on the table and poured some into the bowl.

Zhang Ruolin glanced at Zhao Jianguo, frowned slightly, and asked in a low voice, "Zhao Jianguo, don't you have anything you want to ask?"

"Ask what?"

"Playing stupid?"

Zhao Jianguo smiled and said, "What am I pretending to be stupid? You just said suddenly, I know what you want me to ask you?"

"You don't understand what I'm saying?"

"I understand, but I don't care about this now, I only know that you Zhang Ruolin is the woman I pursue now, and you will be my daughter-in-law in the future, and the child will be. ”

"You really want to ask?"

Zhao Jianguo shook his head.

"Don't you wonder why one person would change so much?"

"Curiosity kills a cat, there are more things left in the world, can I be curious?" Zhao Jianguo picked up a bone with his hand and sucked the bone marrow inside, "I know what you think, what I promised you, I will do it." ”

"But I always felt like I was being forced. ”

Zhao Jianguo glanced at Zhang Ruolin, lowered his head, silently gnawed on the big bone in his hand, and exhaled, "Didn't you say that it's all over?"

"Is it over?"

"It's over, it's all over, aren't we starting over? If you feel coerced because I've moved into a room, I'll move back into my room right away. If I still feel coerced, I can move out and continue to chase you until the day I catch you, or the day you marry someone else. ”

"No need. Zhang Ruolin said lightly.

"I know you have secrets, and I don't care about your secrets, what I care about is you. ”

"Zhang Xiaoruo?"

Zhao Jianguo shook his head, "Today's Zhang Ruolin, Zhang Xiaoruo is just the best memory of my childhood, I didn't be honest with you before." Besides, are you Zhang Xiaoruo?"

"Who am I?"

"Zhang Ruolin can also be said to be Zhang Xiaoruo. ”

"You're not curious?"

Zhao Jianguo looked at Zhang Ruolin with a smile and a smile, "Is it interesting to continue to dwell on this issue? Borrowing corpses to resurrect souls? Is it possible? I walked from the pile of dead people, lying next to dead people and sleeping in the middle of the night, not once or twice, I haven't seen a ghost once in so many years, what age is it now? But your changes do make me a little curious, but I don't bother to ask, I believe that one day you will tell me in person? Even if you don't tell me, it doesn't matter. ”

"I'll tell you someday, but not now. But one thing to tell you, if you do something sorry for me, I will hate you for the rest of my life. ”

Looking at Zhao Jianguo, who was full of smiles, Zhang Ruolin glanced at him, "What are you laughing at?"

"No, no, that daughter-in-law, did you promise to marry me?" Looking at Zhang Ruolin, who was silent and had a slightly red face, Zhao Jianguo said stupidly: "Then let's go get the marriage certificate tomorrow?"

Zhang Ruolin glanced at her.

After a tense day, there were things in my heart, and I didn't have any appetite, so I simply ate some, Zhang Ruolin put down the dishes and chopsticks, finished her homework, washed up, and got into bed.

Zhao Jianguo sat on the bamboo chair and washed his feet, looked at Zhang Ruolin lying on the bed, with a smile on his face, wiped his feet with a footcloth, wore cloth slippers, and poured out the water.

Zhao Jianguo hurriedly took off his clothes, wore boxy pants and a vest, lifted the quilt, lay down, felt that his arm was hot, and reached out to hold Zhang Ruolin in his arms.
