Chapter 162: Xiao Xiao's health improves
After this dream, Xiao Xiao felt full of energy and his body was full of strength.
After Ding Xuxu's condition improved, he took Andrew to Wuhan. At the end of the year, a lot of work is nearing completion, and Xiao Zhengke has made time to accompany Xiao Xiao.
In the face of Xiao Zhengke's enthusiasm, Xiao Xiao refused, she didn't want to drag this man down, so she repeatedly snubbed him. But Xiao Zhengke was very persistent, he put down the chairman's shelf, and came to visit Xiao Xiao's home whenever he had time.
Not only did he often come to visit, but even Jiang Pengcheng also came to join in the fun.
One day, the two bumped into each other at Xiao Xiao's house and made a lot of jokes.
When Xiao's mother saw the two guests, she was naturally warmly welcomed, but the two big men were vying to help Xiao's mother cook, and they squeezed Xiao's mother out of the kitchen as they scrambled.
Xiao's mother looked innocent and came to Xiao Xiao's side, "Girl, what do you say is wrong with the two of them today?
"Maybe it's itchy hands and I want to cook. Xiao Xiao sat on the sofa and watched TV very happily.
After about an hour, the table was filled with all kinds of stir-fried dishes. Father Xiao smelled the smell and walked out of the study, "It's so fragrant, what are you doing delicious?"
"It's the kids who do it. The smile on Xiao's mother's face was very kind.
"Dad, come and try their craft. Xiao Xiao sat at the dining table, looking very expectant.
"Oh, why am I so blessed to be able to eat the food cooked by the two elites today, haha!" Father Xiao smiled.
"Uncle has won the award, sit down, this is the winter melon pork rib soup I made for you, you can taste it." Xiao Zhengke filled the five empty bowls on the table with winter melon pork rib soup.
Xiao Xiao has recovered well recently, has eaten a lot, and has repeatedly praised, "I didn't expect you two to cook so deliciously, I'm really ashamed." ”
"If you like to eat, I can make it for you every day. Xiao Zhengke's words came suddenly, and Xiao Xiao almost choked.
Jiang Pengcheng was not to be outdone, and sandwiched a meatball for Xiao Xiao, "Xiao Xiao, this is your favorite sweet and sour balls, I made it specially for you, you can taste it." ”
"Thank you. Xiao Xiao put the balls in his mouth and enjoyed it, "It's delicious, I'm going to eat another one." ”
Seeing this, Jiang Pengcheng immediately gave Xiao Xiao another one, "If you like to eat, eat more." ”
Xiao Zhengke's face instantly darkened, but he still showed a very gentlemanly appearance.
Xiao's father and Xiao's mother saw the clue, and ate silently without speaking.
After lunch, Xiao Xiao planned to take a good nap, and the two men left. Xiao's mother came to Xiao Xiao's room, "Girl, you tell your mother the truth, what's the matter with you and Xiao Zhengke and Jiang Pengcheng?"
"What's going on?"
"I saw it during the dinner just now, Xiao Ke and Xiao Jiang both like you, and I also heard that Xiao Jiang and his wife just divorced. ”
"Jiang Pengcheng's divorce from his wife has nothing to do with me. ”
"Then who do you like more of these two men?" Xiao Mu looked expectant.
"Mom, don't think about it, Xiao Zhengke and I have broken up, as for Jiang Pengcheng, he is just our neighbor, it is impossible for me to be with him. ”
"Well, although this Xiao Jiang is good, after all, he is a divorced person, and it is better to be Xiao Ke. ”
"Mom, I'm sleepy, you can go back to sleep for a while. ”
"Okay, you can rest. ”
Xiao Xiao lay on the bed and soon fell asleep. She had the same dream, in which she came to an empty place full of asters, and her body was constantly absorbing the essence of them. When she woke up, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon, Xiao Xiao felt a lot more comfortable, she stretched her waist, went to the surrounding park for a walk, and breathed in the fresh air.
The Chinese New Year is coming soon, Xiao's father and Xiao's mother have been busy preparing for the New Year's goods, Xiao Xiao recently practiced calligraphy at home and wrote a lot of calligraphy, she wrote a pair of Spring Festival couplets on a whim.
Father Xiao came over and looked at it, and his eyes lit up, "The glyphs are leaning on the staggered, large and small, opening and closing, the thickness of the lines changes obviously, and there are ups and downs." Nicely written, nice!"
Xiao's father posted this Spring Festival couplet written by Xiao Xiao outside his door, and he was very happy.
Jiang Pengcheng, as Xiao Xiao's neighbor, often visited Xiao Xiao at the opposite door. He saw that the Spring Festival couplets posted at the door of Xiao Xiao's house were very individual, so he took the initiative to come to the door to ask, and after knowing that the Spring Festival couplets at the door were from Xiao Xiao's hand, he pestered Xiao Xiao and asked her to write a pair for herself.
Xiao Xiao felt that this was a trivial matter, so he agreed.
On the same day, Xiao Xiao went to Jiang Pengcheng's house as a guest, and the two of them sat on the sofa and said a few words in their hearts.
"What about your parents, why haven't you seen them recently?" Xiao Xiao asked.
"After I got divorced, they went to Beijing. Jiang Pengcheng replied.
"Your divorce has affected a lot of people. Xiao Xiao's face raised a faint sadness, like a light cloud, rubbed in melancholy.
"Xiao Xiao, watching your body slowly improve, I'm really happy for you. Jiang Pengcheng's thin lips slightly hooked a good-looking arc, his eyes were as deep as the sea, and his voice was a little hoarse.
"Thank you, Jiang Pengcheng, in fact, I have always wanted to ask you, why did you divorce Peng Nana?" Xiao Xiao raised his eyes, and his eyelids felt a little heavy.
"Nana and I grew up together, we know each other too well, and there is only family affection and no love between the two of us. Jiang Pengcheng looked at Xiao Xiao, his eyes were very clear, and his voice was a little hoarse, but every word was clear, "You know, the person I like is you." ”
"What about your children? A single-parent family is too cruel for a child. Xiao Xiao's voice was almost hoarse, with a heavy sadness and guilt.
"I will go to see the children often, and the child support will be paid on time. ”
"What children need is love and the company of their parents. ”
"I know I'll balance it all out. "The man's voice was gentle.
"Jiang Pengcheng, I tell you very definitely now that the person I love in my heart is Xiao Zhengke, who was, is, and will be in the future. Although I broke up with him, I will always love him. An imperceptible smile appeared at the corner of Xiao Xiao's mouth, like a ripple on his face, which quickly crossed his face, and then condensed into two sparks in his eyes, and disappeared into the depths of the eye wave in an instant.
"I think I can replace him. "Jiang Pengcheng is sincere and very confident.
"You can't replace him. Xiao Xiao's eyes became extremely clear, and that affectionate look was a tenderness that Jiang Pengcheng had never seen before, but he was very sure that her gentleness would never belong to him.
The man took a deep breath, "Xiao Xiao, why do you love Xiao Zhengke so much?"
"Because no matter what happened, he never gave up on me, even though I had a brain tumor and my life was in danger, he was always waiting for me. ”
"However, whether you are sick or not, I love you the same!" Jiang Pengcheng's emotions were a little excited.
"You gave up on me for Pennana before. Xiao Xiao's eyes were dyed with a faint clarity.
Jiang Pengcheng was stunned for a moment and didn't speak for a long time. Xiao Xiao saw that he was silent, so he reminded, "Didn't you have some dreams about me? In the dream, you gave up on me for Peng Nana." ”
Something suddenly exploded in the man's mind, and he took a deep breath, lowered his head, and felt very uncomfortable in his heart.
"Dreams are fake, and that doesn't happen in real life. Jiang Pengcheng frowned.
Xiao Xiao sneered, looking at the man fixedly, some memories were surging like a flood, crashing into people's minds quickly, like a storm. "Life is like a dream, a dream is like life, you lost me in your dreams, and you lost Peng Nana in real life. ”
The man was silent......
"Jiang Pengcheng, you must be a good father. Xiao Xiao got up and left......
Huatai Financial Company's software development has made small achievements, Xiao Zhengke arranged for the company to take annual leave in advance afterwards, and he decided to stay in Shanghai for the New Year in order to accompany Xiao Xiao.
He called Xiao Xiao every day to express his condolences, and came to Xiao Xiao's house whenever he had time. On Chinese New Year's Eve, Xiao Zhengke came to visit with a lot of gifts, and Xiao's father and mother warmly received him.
Xiao Xiao was playing a game with the computer at the time, Xiao Zhengke leaned over, "What are you playing?"
"Play the game. Xiao Xiao didn't care to look at him.
"I remember that you rarely play games, why are you interested today?" Xiao Zhengke looked doting.
"It's boring to be idle at home. ”
"I heard Uncle Xiao say that you wrote the Spring Festival couplets outside the door?" the man asked.
"yes, how did I write?"
"That's a good write, I didn't expect you to do this. ”
"I'll have a lot of stuff, and a lot more you don't know. ”
"Really? ”
"Hey, what are you doing today?" Xiao Xiao opened his big eyes and looked very cute.
"I've come to see you. The corners of the man's mouth lifted slightly.
"By the way, if you don't go home during the Spring Festival, will your parents blame you?" Xiao Xiao stopped the game in his hand and looked at the man stupidly.
"They know I'm here with you. ”
"Oh. Xiao Xiao's thin crimson lips pursed slightly, and her eyebrows frowned slightly, "Didn't you tell them that we had broken up?"
"Nope. "The man's attitude is cold.
"Oh. Xiao Xiao replied softly.
At this moment, Father Xiao came over, "Xiao Ke, you are not allowed to leave tonight, stay here for Chinese New Year's Eve dinner." ”
"Got it, uncle. Xiao Zhengke nodded very politely.
In the evening, Xiao's mother made a table of delicious dishes, Xiao Xiao smelled the fragrance and came to the table, "Mom, are you boiling chicken soup?" ”
Xiao Xiao took a small spoon, took a sip, tasted it, and swallowed it again, "It's so fresh, my mother's cooking skills are great!"
Xiao's mother put a large pot of fish soup on the table, Xiao Xiao was like a little gluttonous cat, and leaned in front of the fish soup, "Wow, this is sour soup fish?"
This large pot of milky white soup, fresh, sour, thick, floated with a few slices of tomatoes, ginger slices and onions, and a freshly slaughtered grass carp weighing almost two catties crawled in the soup.
"Let's sit down and eat. Xiao Mu shouted softly.
