Chapter 13 A son-in-law who calls his mother is definitely a good son-in-law
Si Qi was stunned for a moment, he hadn't seen Shi Jing's car, and he couldn't see it clearly from a distance, so he didn't dare to determine whether it was Shi Jing or not.
"Mommy, it's uncle, it must be uncle, I see it's him. Si Xiaojun broke free of her hand as he spoke, and rushed over the car at a trot.
She was stunned and had to hurry along.
"Xiaoqi, is my son-in-law here?" Zhang Xingmei hurriedly looked in the direction where Xiaojun ran.
"Mom, you wait here, I'll come back when I go and see. Si Qi turned around and told as she walked, and immediately made Zhang Xingmei's legs that were about to move reluctantly reluctantly, and turned into a giraffe on the spot, eager to conjure a ten-meter-long neck in a second, so that she could quickly take a look.
Si Xiaojun's little short legs ran quite fast, and when Si Qi chased him, he was already standing in front of Shi Jing's car, smiling as he watched Shi Jing open the car door and come down.
"Mommy, look, I'll just say it's uncle, I can't be mistaken. Si Xiaojun looked up triumphantly, his eyes full of excitement.
Si Qi looked at Shi Jing with some embarrassment, said hello casually, and didn't know what to say for a while, Shi Jing, who was dressed in black, was also embarrassed to hold on to the car door, lowered his eyebrows, his long eyelashes fluttered, his pale cheeks were pale in the sun, and his fingers were scraping the car door uncomfortably.
"That's... My mother arrived early..."Si Qi took a deep breath, turned around and pointed at Zhang Xingmei, who was looking over and eager to step over, "I was supposed to arrive in the afternoon, but I didn't expect her to come early, that, I'm sorry, I made you bump into it." No wonder she has been haunted by "nightmares" every night for the past two days, and now it is really a "nightmare" dream come true, and every plot in the dream is staged in reality in turn.
It's so effective, why doesn't she dream of winning the jackpot?
She turned around, as if to send a signal to Zhang Xingmei, only to see Zhang Xingmei drop the salute all over the ground, and rushed over in stride, when she was three steps away from them, she began to look Shi Jing up and down, with the expression of a prospective mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law, her face was full of excitement and surprise that she couldn't hide, her eyes almost lit up, and at the end, she asked with a smile: "You are the Shi Jing that Xiaoqi said, right?"
Shi Jing moved to the back of the car door invisibly, but soon paused again, he opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say, so he had to nod first, as if someone had stuffed an engine in his chest, and the boom increased the horsepower, making his whole heart beat at speed, and the blood in his whole body suddenly collided, and an indescribable pain spread from his fingertips to his heart, almost making him dizzy.
Seeing this, Si Qi hurriedly took a step next to him, shared a little of his mother's burning gaze for him, and introduced with a smile: "This is my mother, Ms. Zhang Xingmei, mother, this is Shi Jing." ”
Shi Jing bit the tip of his tongue hard, until he tasted a hint of blood, he barely managed to maintain his composure, tried to put a smile on his face, and struggled to maintain this expression, twisted his pants with both hands, lowered his head, and looked like he was sven and shy: "Mom, hello." ”
Si Qi: "......"
But as long as she reacted so slowly, her tongue was about to be bitten off by her own teeth, but she still saw blood, and the pain made her almost cry, she couldn't understand why the person who looked "Sven" and "shy" didn't feel embarrassed to shout this suy and greasy mother to a stranger...
However, after seeing Shi Jing's expression clearly, she was full of shock, incredulity, and suspicion of her auditory hallucinations, and finally laughed out loud with a "poof" in hindsight, turned her head sideways and coughed desperately, almost coughing dimly.
This unlucky child, as for the nervousness, is it like this?
His face was as white as paper, his eyes were as if he had been put on a spinning top of a motor, and his fingertips were pinched into blue and white...
This mother was called out by his original spirit stealing, if she was exposed on the spot, would he be so ashamed that he exploded on the spot?
Her mind was full of confusion, but the initiator looked at her blankly and innocently, her face was still pale and weak, and she felt a sense of pity, and she didn't understand what he had just done.
"Hey, hey... How about you... Zhang Xingmei was also stunned for a moment, then quickly came back to her senses, and immediately smiled like a flower, this is called mother's son-in-law, that is definitely a good son-in-law.
She couldn't help but take a step closer with a smile: "A few days ago, Xiaoqi said that she had a boyfriend, I thought she was casually talking to fool me, but I didn't expect it to be true, she said that you have known each other for more than a year, then you can go to our house to play if you have time, our place is beautiful, the scenery is very good, it is very suitable for travel, Xiaoqi didn't say that she wants to take you back on National Day..."
"Mom, don't stand here, let's go home and talk about it, aren't you hot?" Si Qi saw that Zhang Xingmei was going to ask again, and hurriedly intercepted her words.
Zhang Xingmei glared at her, and looked at Shi Jing with a smile, "It's all because this girl is hiding from us, otherwise I would have come to Jincheng a long time ago, let's go home and talk, go home and talk slowly, this child is really handsome, like a movie star, my unlucky girl is lucky now." ”
Shi Jing's face seemed to be stiff, his whole body began to stiffen, his hands drooped unnaturally, and his fingers twisted his pants vigorously, he had not met such a warm stranger for many, many years.
Si Qi turned around quietly, blocking his mother's sight, looked at Shi Jing as if comforting, and said with a smile: "It's okay, I'll be there later." After a pause, she blinked a little narrowly: "My mother seems to be quite satisfied with you, and the handsome man really has an advantage." ”
Shi Jing's uncertain gaze barely condensed, fell on Si Qi's face, and after a moment, it quickly slid away, inexplicably, his heart that collapsed into a bow seemed to suddenly loosen, the rumbling sound in his head finally calmed down a little, and the blood in his whole body no longer collided without a clue, but the faint painful touch still enveloped him like a shadow, fortunately, he was already used to it.
"I didn't expect you to call Mom, this effect is too good!" Si Qi pretended to look at him casually, then turned his gaze away, and said with a smile: "Then next time I can also change my words to your parents, so that their convincing should be higher, no, I should have called my parents last time, eh, miscalculated." As he spoke, he grabbed his hair in annoyance, looking extremely regretful.
However, when her voice fell, Shi Jing's uncertain eyes froze, and his pale face, which was like ice and snow, cracked instantly, and his fingers twisting his pants froze, and after a long time, he seemed to not believe it, and muttered in a low voice: "I, I... He couldn't utterly utter the word.
In just a few words, he said it extremely difficult and bumpy, as if he had exhausted all his strength, and exuded an unbelievable aura from head to toe, which showed that he really didn't notice what he was calling just now.
Mom?
Since he was seven years old, he has never called this kind of soft and glutinous name, at that time he dreamed of spreading his wings and flying high, imitating his parents' words and deeds in every word and deed, and living himself as a little adult, the pride of the sky in the eyes of everyone, and the star of tomorrow in the eyes of school teachers, probably because he was too focused on flying high on weekdays, and he felt that he was invincible as if he was self-hypnosis, so when he really faced the change, he would have no power to deal with it, and he was instantly beaten back to the original form of the mother and fetus, shrinking in the dark world to survive.
"yes! It's working pretty well, and my mom is happy. Si Qi first finished excitedly, and then looked embarrassed, "It's just that I want to wronged you, since I called the first time, I have to see you again and call again in the future." After a pause, she clapped her hands again and said with a smile: "Don't feel that you are at a loss, you change your mouth, of course I will change my mouth, since we have decided to work together, don't worry about such small problems!"
She said it relaxed and happy, her expression was extremely natural, as if she was calling someone a mother when she opened her mouth, it was not a big deal at all, Shi Jing opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say, the moment he saw Zhang Xingmei, his mind was blank, and all his willpower was used to suppress the anxiety and panic of being scrutinized, he really didn't realize that he actually opened his mouth to call someone's mother.
But when she said this, it didn't seem to be a big deal, his heart was in turmoil, ashamed and embarrassed, and he immediately felt like someone had poured a bucket of warm water, which was extremely warm and proper from beginning to end.
Zhang Xingmei was led by her grandson and walked in front, and kept looking back at Shi Jing, nodding while watching, and said that her mother-in-law looked at her son-in-law, and the more she looked at it, the more satisfied she became, as far as the first feeling was concerned, she was quite satisfied with this future son-in-law, and her height and appearance were very moderate, not to mention that people would call her mother when she opened her mouth, and she would not run away in the future when she heard it.
It's just too thin, a picture of malnutrition, as if it came out of a refugee camp, probably young people nowadays are used to staying at home all year round without sunlight and skipping meals, so they will be pale.
She already had at least three or more food supplement recipes in her head.
Si Qi pulled Shi Jing to follow behind, whispered to him about his mother's preferences, and made a picture of a deep conversation, lest his mother couldn't help but come over again, although it couldn't take long, it was good to let Shi Jing have less contact with his mother for a minute, at least let him have a buffer time.
Zhang Xingmei brought too many things, the three of them couldn't take them, the doorman uncle came over and took a hand, helped them send the things into the elevator, Si Qi handed the key to Si Xiaojun, and made a decisive arrangement: "Good son, you accompany your grandmother home first, I will go shopping with my uncle, you go home and turn on the air conditioner, and report to your grandmother about the study situation of the last semester." After saying that, she glanced at her talented son.
Si Xiaojun really understood, raised his hand and pressed the elevator, "I know, Mommy, you and your uncle buy slowly, don't be in a hurry to come back, I will accompany my grandmother." ”
"Eh, you wait for me to leave my things at home and go with you. Zhang Xingmei hurriedly said.
"Mom, no need, it's too hot outside, the vegetable market is next door, we'll be back soon." After speaking, he didn't wait for his mother to reply, and hurriedly pulled Shi Jing's sleeve and walked out, not giving his mother a chance to refute at all.
When she got out of the apartment building, she breathed a sigh of relief, and while walking along the shade of the trees to the vegetable market, she pretended to ask in a casual whisper, "When did you come here?"
Shi Jing was silent for a moment, took a deep breath, and then whispered, "11 o'clock in the morning." ”
"So early?" Si Qi looked at him in surprise, "Then you've been waiting in the car?"
Shi Jing nodded again, still staring down at the ground, twisting his pants with both hands, and silently following Si Qi's side, the two asked and answered, and the embarrassment of the sudden collision slowly dissipated, but unfortunately when the two of them finished buying vegetables and walked back, Shi Jing's footsteps became slower and slower, as if someone had tied a thousand catties of boulders to his feet, making it quite difficult for him to walk every step, and his face became more and more difficult to look at.
When he arrived at the door of the unit building, Shi Jing paused.
Si Qi glanced at him and asked, "What's wrong?"
Shi Jing didn't look at her eyes, and paused for a long time before saying, "I forgot the gift I prepared in the car." ”
Si Qi thought for a moment and asked again, "Do you want me to accompany you?"
Shi Jing hesitated for a long time before he asked in a low voice, "Is it okay?"
