Chapter 319: I Want to Cry
"Hehe, so do you agree now?" I decisively pulled the topic back to the point of being witty.
"Uh-huh, uh-huh, you all go, how happy a family of three is, and then I'll be left alone, like a superfluous. Liu Xixi couldn't help muttering over there, in fact, I knew that she was happy for me in her heart, although she didn't say it, I could feel it.
I remember texting that day, I told her that I was with Poplar, and the guy immediately called me to confirm the situation despite the fact that he was at work, and expressed great appreciation for the progress of my love.
Although she said sour words, she will be the only single dog in the future, and she will be the only one to go shopping and eat when she is bored in the future, but from her tone, I can feel that she is blessed and happy for me.
Later, we agreed to meet at Wanda Plaza, and then set off together to go to Liu Xixi's parents' house.
Hanging up the phone, I told Yang Shu to go directly to Liu Xixi's parents' house for dinner, and wait a minute to buy something that the elderly can eat.
So we came to Wal-Mart, the supermarket was full of goods, I really had no experience, and I didn't know what the old man liked, so I could only ask the poplar for help, "You said to give gifts to the elderly, what to give, I have no experience in this area, I really don't know what to buy for them." ”
"Leave it to me, and you can just follow me. "I pulled Yang Shu's arm and was coquettish, I knew that he must be reliable, in my heart Yang Shu is an all-round man, a superhero.
So I obediently followed the poplar tree, he took me straight to the shelf, looking at the various brands of ***, varied, I was really dizzy, wittily chose not to speak, quietly watched, it can be regarded as a learning experience.
Xiaoxue and I were on the side, watching Yang Shu take several *** carefully compared, and even carefully looked at the production date, as well as the people who were not suitable, and occasionally asked me if Liu Xixi's parents had any diseases or something, I said I didn't know, I hadn't seen them for many years.
Later, Yang Shu gave up inquiring about the situation from me, and picked it there for more than ten minutes, carefully compared, eliminated them one by one, and finally chose two bottles of medicinal wine and a box of tea, I didn't know what brand, so I simply handed it all over to him.
In the end, when the bill was checked, it was Yang Shu who paid the money, and he said that there was no reason to let the girl pay when he went out.
Well, I admit that I was teased by him again, not because I think he is rich and generous, but because I think that he exudes a gentlemanly demeanor in his bones, no girl can refuse.
Later, he carried several gift boxes by himself, and to be honest, it was quite heavy, so he didn't let me interfere, I walked behind him with Xiaoxue, out of the supermarket, and watched him put things in the trunk, I really had an urge to live with this man for the rest of my life, oh no, this is not an impulse, this is a long-planned plan, hehe.
From entering the supermarket to coming out, it took us about twenty minutes, because the agreed place was very close to us, and Liu Xixi was relatively far away, so she hadn't arrived after we arrived.
After waiting in the car for a while, Liu Xixi finally came, because everything was explained clearly on the phone, so there was nothing to say, we didn't get out of the car, but the poplar flashed twice, and then opened the window and told her to lead the way directly, and we followed.
The car was driving on the road in the evening, because there were no people, so the speed was relatively fast, and the poplars kept a proper distance, and we followed behind Liu Xixi's car.
I sat in the back seat and held Xiaoxue in my arms, I don't know why I had a nervous feeling, they were just friends who had been reunited for a long time, why would I be so unable to let go.
Yang Shu noticed my strange appearance, so he thoughtfully asked me, "Do you want to drink some water, this is nothing to be nervous about, you should go to meet two friends who haven't seen each other for a long time, chat with them, have a meal together, catch up, talk about their experiences and changes over the years, it is a rare thing to reunite after a long absence, really." ”
Poplar thoughtfully brought me a bottle of water to reassure me not to be too nervous, I was touched and grateful for his order.
"Uh-huh, I'm fine. I took the mineral water he handed me, opened it and took a sip, probably because the air was a little stuffy, and I opened the window a little more.
"Mommy, what's wrong with you, why are your palms sweating so much?" At this time, Xiaoxue suddenly held my hand and found that my palms were already sweaty.
I don't know why I'm so nervous, it's really inexplicable, is it because I'm really scared to face them, I don't know how to explain to them why I've lost touch all these years?
I don't think that's the main reason, because I know that even if I take the initiative to explain, they won't ask me, they will only care about how I've been doing over the years, and they're still as simple and kind as before.
"I'm fine, maybe it's a little hot, it's fine. I put my hand on my clothes and wiped the sweat off my palms, and then told Xiaoxue that I was just a little hot, reassuring her not to worry.
Xiaoxue didn't speak, and I forced myself to calm down, there was nothing to be nervous about, I went to see an old friend I hadn't seen in years, not an enemy.
Under my own repeated psychological suggestion, I finally succeeded in getting rid of the extreme nervousness, and the whole person slowly relaxed.
After a while, the mobile phone rang, I took it out and looked at it, it was Liu Xixi calling, "Hey, what's wrong?" I pressed the answer button and asked.
"I just called my parents, they have already prepared a meal and are waiting for us at home, and they asked how are you doing?" Liu Xixi said.
"Hehe, it's still the same, and the food is already served before everyone has even gone to eat. I said with a smile, and the scene of us eating and chatting together many years ago came to my mind.
I don't know what they are like now, will they be much older, will they not know me anymore? Will they ......
I had too many questions in my mind to get answers, but I still tried my best to suppress my emotions and told Liu Xixi, "We're almost there, we'll see it soon." ”
"Uh-huh, they told us to be safe and not in a hurry. Liu Xixi smiled over there, as if she saw my hungry appearance.
Indeed, today can be said to be a very fulfilling day, the parent-teacher meeting Disney, although I had a full meal at noon, but for a person who had a good afternoon of play, he was already hungry now.
Probably the nervousness overshadowed the feeling of hunger, I didn't feel very hungry at all, and we should have been on the fragrant dinner table at this time.
Hung up the phone, my hunger was seduced by Liu Xixi, I touched my stomach a little unconsciously, this subtle little action was quickly noticed by Xiaoxue, the little girl said happily, "Mommy, are you hungry, I'm hungry too, let me tell you, the food cooked by grandparents is delicious, we are going to their house soon, and we can eat the food cooked by grandparents again." ”
Sure enough, as soon as Xiaoxue finished speaking, my stomach screamed very uncontrollably, and in this small enclosed space, this hungry but still resounding in the sky made me a little ashamed.
Obviously, the little girl didn't realize my embarrassment, and she was still trying to explain to me the food she had at Liu Xixi's parents' house last time, spicy crayfish, fragrant hairy crab, braised fish, sweet and sour pork ribs......
These are all things I loved to eat when I was young, and every time I used to go to Liu Xixi's house, my uncle and aunt would cook a lot of food for me, and I couldn't finish it every time.
The little girl kept talking, I glanced at the poplar tree awkwardly, the guy was looking at the front of the car with a smile on his face, what, I obviously heard it, I laughed if I wanted to laugh, why pretended to be nothing, which made me very embarrassed.
Well, I guess he pretended not to hear it to save my face, I coughed dryly twice, signaling that I had something to say, and sure enough, the attention of both guys was drawn to me.
"Hmm...... Well, don't say we went to Disney for an afternoon today. I reminded with some embarrassment.
I'm ready to share with them what I've seen and heard today. Xiaoxue was the first to be dissatisfied, it seemed that she had poked her sensitive area now.
"Hehe, Xiaoxue is obedient, just do what Mommy says, let's share with them the experience of our parent-teacher conference this morning, isn't it also very exciting, Mommy naturally has her reason for doing this. Sure enough, the poplar tree is still very effective at the critical moment, and at this time, it is estimated that Xiaoxue can only listen to what he says.
In fact, I just didn't want to leave them with the impression that they were not doing their jobs, after all, they were old people, and their thinking was a little old, and they would think that I was the kind of playful young man, and when the time came, I left a bad impression along with the poplars.
Yes, that's why I don't want to tell Liu Xixi's parents, there are many things to talk about after not seeing each other for many years, but for some things that are not quite in line with the thoughts of the elderly, we should try to avoid them, otherwise we will inevitably disappoint them.
The car sped all the way, and after a while, we arrived at the gate of Liu Xixi's parents' community.
Yang Shu drove the car and followed Liu Xixi to find a parking space, Xiaoxue was a little too excited, and I started to be a little nervous in the car again.
I decided to use the things around me to distract myself, and it worked, because I noticed that the neighborhood where Liu Xixi's parents lived was no longer the old-fashioned neighborhood it used to be, everything in this neighborhood was so fresh and modern, but the location remained the same, which meant that the previous neighborhood had been demolished.
When I got out of the car, I looked at everything strange around me, and the tension in my heart suddenly turned into a sense of depression, and I suddenly had an urge to cry, many things are so cruel, and those things that leave us good memories are often changed with the passage of time.
I didn't like what happened here, but I knew that everything had changed and I didn't know anything about it.
I don't know how to be a remembrance, the good things of the past seem to have never happened, they have always existed only in memories.
It seems that only in this way seems how precious, in previous years, the lively small pond in the community has become deserted, and has been artificially transformed into an artificial lake, which is several times larger than before, but the surrounding area is very deserted, and even the small park where people used to walk and chat and enjoy the shade has become deserted, without a trace of life.
Liu Xixi led us forward, poplar led Xiaoxue, Xiaoxue chatted with him, I walked alone at the end of the single, looking at everything completely unfamiliar in front of me, I admitted that I couldn't help but want to cry.
