Chapter 1: The First Chance Encounter
Winter in this southern city came very early this year, the cold wind was blowing outside, and there were few pedestrians on the street. There was only speeding traffic on the road.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, it was warm in a western restaurant in "Jin Shanghua". Today is Saturday, there are a lot of people here, and there are adults sitting and talking quietly, and there are also children who are eating with relish. There are also waiters who shuttle around the restaurant with plates.
At the table in the middle of the restaurant near the corridor sat two customers, one large and one small, the adult was Tian Zao watching the machine, and the child was her niece Tian Hui who was burying her head in eating.
In front of them sat a couple flirting, the two pushed around, only to see a waiter holding a plate just passed, the man in front of him just pushed his girlfriend, only to hear a "pop", the plate fell to the ground and broken, the male waiter also fell to the ground. The woman also sprinkled a lot of vegetable water on her shoulders.
As soon as the woman saw that her clothes were dirty, she immediately stood up and angrily walked up to the waitress who had just stood up, and slapped her. The waitress looked like he was about twenty years old, and he was suddenly stunned by this slap, and he was stupidly there.
"Do you know how expensive my clothes are?"
"You pay for my clothes," the woman shouted loudly, and the guests all stood up to watch the excitement, but no one took care of it.
"I'm sorry," said the waitress Nono.
"I'm sorry" Is it over, the woman raised her hand and was about to slap him again, but her wrist was held hard by Tian Zao and couldn't move. The woman's face was distorted in pain.
"Where did the wild woman come from, let go of me, you dare to meddle with my business". The woman screamed loudly.
His boyfriend saw that his girlfriend had suffered a loss, and he came up and punched Tian Zao in the face, Tian Zao flexibly dodged, the man's punch missed, and then he was angry with another punch, Tian Zao raised his leg and kicked the man's fist with a flying foot, and the man's face covering his hands in pain immediately changed color.
"Wild woman, let me go, or I won't let you go,"
"If you are so arrogant, I will make sure that your hands cannot use chopsticks for three months." As soon as Guo Zao exerted his strength, the woman immediately screamed in pain.
Tian Hui watched nervously on the side, but she didn't come over, she knew that she couldn't make trouble for her aunt at this time.
The waitress finally came to his senses, "Sister, our manager is here, you let her go,"
I saw a middle-aged man walking over with several security guards.
Tian Zao let go of her hand, and the woman hurriedly rubbed her wrist with her hand.
"This young lady, your friend pushed you, you stretched out your body to the corridor, and knocked the waiter down, if you don't apologize, forget it, you still beat people, what is the reason, can you beat people indiscriminately if you have money?" Tian Zao said truthfully.
"You and you talk nonsense, I didn't, he accidentally fell while walking, and he made my clothes dirty"
"yes, I'm right behind you, I can see it clearly, or we can take a look at the surveillance, do you dare?"
"What do you want, I'll compensate him, isn't it just a plate, what's the big deal, you also have to compensate for my clothes."
"You tripped over someone yourself, and you still want to pay for your clothes?"
"You, you, you, you bully". At this time, the woman's face was flushed, and his boyfriend was still rubbing his hands after being kicked by Tian Zao.
"Although the manager is the customer is God, but those rude and rude gods don't care, their own employees must be protected, not allowed to be beaten and scolded by outsiders."
"Yes, this beating lady, you now not only have to apologize to our employees but also compensate for mental damages, this slap is not for nothing, otherwise we would have called the police."
At this point, neither man nor woman spoke again, probably frightened by a group of security guards behind the manager.
"Then you can solve it yourself, I believe you can handle it well," Tian Zao said.
"Thank you, sister"
"Thank you, young lady, for your free meal,"
"No, no, I don't like to take advantage of others."
The woman and his boyfriend glared at Tian Zao fiercely before leaving.
A group of people cheered away, and the restaurant returned to its original state.
Tian Zao returned to his position and sat down.
"Auntie, didn't you promise grandpa to be idle?"
"I didn't hold back for a while, you know that I can't see others being bullied the most, don't tell your family when you go back."
"I know"
"Auntie, I'll tell you a big secret." As she spoke, the little girl turned her face to look around, and when she found that she didn't know anyone, she continued: "You must not tell me the secret I told you, and grandma said that I said it." The little girl looked serious, chewing on food in her mouth. The little girl looks like she is seven or eight years old, with a long pink and tender face, a chubby little face, two big eyes that are flashing and blinking, and her thick black hair with two small braids is even more cute. Chewing food in his mouth, his chubby little face bulged out like a little squirrel eating nuts. At this moment, my aunt was staring with big eyes, waiting for an answer.
Haha, haha, the laughter like a silver bell came, and the little girl's so-called aunt spoke: "It's funny, you little kid, what secrets can you have, it's still big." After the aunt finished speaking, she laughed again, and the crisp and pleasant laughter reached the adjacent table, and Xin Zhitai had been paying attention to her since she was chivalrous just now.
I saw that she was wearing a pink coat, looking like she was in her twenties, her skin was red and white, she had a melon seed face, long black hair, a pair of big eyes as bright as black jewels, and several layers of double eyelids. No powder, but it is better than a thousand smears. I didn't expect such a pure girl to be so good, others couldn't understand it, but he, an insider, could see that this girl was definitely a practitioner.
Tian Zao and Tian Hui sat opposite each other, raised their heads and couldn't help but look to the side, their eyes were facing each other, Tian Zao was also surprised, this man is so handsome, it looks like he has seen it somewhere.
Xin Zhitai hurriedly retracted his gaze, and the little girl over there said a little angrily: "Auntie, I mean it really, if you promise not to tell grandma, I will tell you."
My aunt stopped laughing and put down her chopsticks and said, "Okay, my aunt listens carefully, believes in you, and now I promise you, I won't say it, you can say it now."
"Auntie, when you went out to deliver clothes yesterday, our family had an emergency meeting." "Wait, meeting, how come I don't know, why didn't anyone inform me"?
"Auntie, can you listen carefully to what I have to say?, don't interrupt,".
Okay, I won't interrupt you what you say. ”
"This meeting is for you, can you join it?" Grandma shut me up in my grandfather's study, and I heard it secretly through the crack in the door.
After speaking, the little girl took a sip of her drink and continued: "Grandma said that the whole family should not be good to you, and whoever wants to be good to you again is against her, and it is to indirectly harm you." Let the whole family show you a look, and don't let Dad drive you to pick you up and drop you off or something. Let your mother have nothing to do is to quarrel with you about something, and let the whole family not do housework in the future, and let you do all the work at home alone. Grandma said that only if the whole family treats you badly, you will think about leaving this family and will you think about getting married. It's because the whole family is too good to you that you don't want to get married. If you can't marry for the rest of your life, they will become sinners for the ages. ”
"Did your grandmother really say that? Did you hear me?"
"Auntie, I can hear well, and besides, grandma is so loud, why can't I hear clearly, it's just that grandma said more, I can't remember clearly, anyway, that's probably what it means, it's always the whole family that squeezes you, and forcing you to marry out is the ultimate goal."
The little girl took a big sip of the drink, wiped her mouth, and said, "Actually, except for grandma, everyone disagrees with grandma's approach, but grandma is crying and making trouble, and everyone has no choice but to agree."
"Auntie, have you listened to me? They are about to start implementation, it is estimated that your abuse days are about to begin, hey, I am really worried about you, auntie, you should hurry up and think about what to do!" The little girl shook her head.
Tian Zao laughed disapprovingly after hearing this, "Your grandmother is so talented, she can come up with such a way to marry me."
"Don't worry, there are policies and countermeasures, and my aunt has a way, and she won't let your grandma make you angry. Thank you, this little spy, for telling me this, it's still our aunt who loves her the most, and what else she wants to eat, even if she wants. ”
"No need, auntie, I don't really like the food here at all, it's not as good as what you cooked, it's only because I asked you to take me out to eat in order to tell you these secrets. ”
"Auntie, grandma, she swore that she would marry you off next year, and if you don't get married next year, she won't be surnamed Feng. said that you are about to run thirty, and if you don't marry, you will become a leftover girl, and it will be a problem to have children. Because there is an old girl like you in the family, she hasn't been out to the party for a long time, and she is afraid that others will ask about you. Grandma nagged me about this every day, my ears would be calloused, aren't you annoyed by your aunt"?
When Xin Zhitai heard this, his heart sank, and he suddenly had the feeling that "they are all fallen people at the end of the world, and they must have known each other when they meet."
He drank coffee and ate here for almost two hours, and he just didn't want to go home. Suddenly, I felt that this aunt and niece were quite interesting. I suddenly wondered why such a beautiful girl couldn't get married......
Could it be that there are people in my heart who can't let go and don't want to marry.
Just now the little girl said that she is almost thirty, no matter how she looks at it, it seems that her age is not good-looking!
Xin Zhitai was thinking about it, and the aunt over there spoke: "Why don't you bother, I'm about to be driven crazy by your grandmother, fortunately I have a good quality in my heart, otherwise I would have gone crazy, nagging in my ear all day long, whose girl is married, whose girl has a child, whose girl is divorced and has found a boyfriend, I wonder how can you say that she is a doctor so gossipy?, I don't know who told her this news," After speaking, my aunt lay on the table without love.
"Auntie, it's all said by the female doctors and nursing students in the hospital."
"How do you know," Tian Zao asked rhetorically.
"Every time I go to the hospital with my mom, they talk about these topics when they don't have patients."
"When will the doctor be as bored as the aunt of the neighborhood committee"
Shin Zhitai was a little depressed when he heard this, and he didn't understand that an older girl and a seven or eight-year-old child were talking about these topics, and the child could understand it? Can the child understand? But the little girl is very smart, so she should be able to understand.
Xin Zhitai was thinking about other people's questions, his mobile phone rang, he looked at the caller ID, waited for a while before slowly answering the button, and the anxious voice of grandma Deng Rong on the other side of the phone came: "Tai'er, how is it, have you seen it?
"It's not going to be anything, I didn't go to see it at all, I'm busy with grandma, I'll talk about it later" Xin Zhitai hurriedly hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, Xin Zhitai really muttered in his heart, can't he let people live happily? Every day, he is forced to go on a blind date, go on a blind date, look at the next table, and only then do he think that someone is worse than himself! Are these family members idle!
I saw that the aunt next door was answering the phone, the phone was clipped between her shoulders, her head tilted, and she kept writing down something in her notebook with a pen in her hand.
I couldn't hear it clearly, as if I was saying, "The due date, the color of the clothes, the clothes of the mother and the baby should be made and sent before the due date." After my aunt hung up the phone, she put away the pen and notebook and put them in her backpack.
She must be a costume designer.
Tian Zao packed up his things and suddenly moved to this side, and Xin Zhitai retracted his gaze.
Tian Zao looked at the gentleman sitting diagonally opposite her at the next table, because this gentleman had stared at her several times, in fact, she could feel it.
I saw him wearing a white shirt and black suit, a tie, short hair, a little dark skin, a high nose bridge, thick eyebrows and big eyes, thin lips, and he was still very handsome overall. It belongs to the durable type, and the more you look at it, the more handsome it becomes.
Xin Zhitai felt that someone looked at him and looked at him again, "Hey, this gentleman, have we met somewhere, I feel like you are so familiar, but I can't remember for a while, where have you met, and you have been staring at me, do you also feel that I am familiar"?
"yes, that's how I feel," Shin Ji-tae said embarrassedly. In fact, he didn't feel familiar at all, if he had seen him, he would have remembered that her eyes were unforgettable, but he couldn't say it directly, who made him stare at others.
"I'm really sorry that I'm a little face blind, and I've been in contact with a lot of people, so I can't remember you, I just feel so familiar. ”
"It's not too early, we're going back, so I won't bother you. ”
"Okay, go slowly, goodbye"
Tian Zao stood up, put the bag on his back, and pulled Tian Hui to leave
"Goodbye, uncle," Tian Hui politely waved goodbye to Shin Chi-tae.
Tian Zao nodded to him, pulled Tian Hui and left. The little girl took her aunt's hand and jumped up and down.
Xin Zhitai saw that it was almost eight o'clock in his watch, and it was time for him to go back.
Tian Zao learned many years later that the so-called familiarity may be the fate of the previous life.
