Chapter Thirty-Six: The Nameless Fire
"It's a cold day. Kevin took off his coat and draped it over me.
I blocked it with my hand, but I felt that the atmosphere was really a little strange now, and I heard a few words from the boss of the dumpling noodle just now, although I didn't know what was awkward, but I just didn't want to have any intimate movements with Kevin.
"Young man, that wasn't your daughter-in-law just now, was it?"
"It's not ......"
"I'll just say, it's bigger than you at a glance! You're so handsome, aunt will introduce you to someone, my niece, who's about the same age as you......"
"Thank you, Auntie...... My sister probably couldn't find her way back, so I went out to meet her. ”
"Oh, your sister...... I'll just say it's so much older than you......"
This sentence has been circling in my ears, and I don't know what's going on, but I can't get around. Kevin and I walked back and forth.
"Wear it, weird cold ......"
"No, I don't. I pushed his hand away again, "The clothes made by the third brother should be ready, I'll go get them later." ”
I unconsciously quickened my pace, leaving Kevin far behind.
"Third brother, I'll get the clothes. ”
The third brother wore a purple suit today with silver accessories, and looked like a model on the show from a distance.
"Here, put it on and let me see. ”
I left Kevin in place and went back to the house to try on clothes.
"What's the matter?
I went back to change my clothes and took a look at the full-length mirror that I had just put on yesterday, and I felt very satisfied.
When I got to Room 1, I vaguely heard them still talking.
"How old is it?"
"10-year-old ......"
"That fawn is quite small, and the difference between the two of you is at most five years old. But...... 10 years old...... It's not easy. ”
"I don't think it's anything, but it feels ......"
"It's definitely not easy, your third brother has also had an experience of not being favored by the world, but people, you have to live for yourself, and it's tiring to live in the eyes of others. ”
"Yes, she just cares too much about what people say......"
"Girl, is she off work?" said hello to Sister-in-law Huang. I was taken aback, replied to Sister-in-law Huang, and prepared to enter the house.
Sister-in-law Huang frowned, as if she had taken on the heavy responsibility of the revolutionary joint, pulled my arm, took a step closer to me, and lowered her voice very low: "Girl, don't keep messing with the landlord, he has a problem." She said, gesturing to her head.
"Thank you for reminding me, but I think the third brother is quite normal. "I pulled Sister-in-law's hand off my arm.
"You girl, can my sister-in-law deceive you? I have lived here for many years and said that he has a problem with his brain, and he dresses all day long, twisting and writhing, isn't there a problem with his brain?"
"I think that's nice. You'd better worry less about other people's hearts! By the way, has your son's grades come up a little lately? I haven't even heard Brother Huang beat him. ”
"Cut, you girl, didn't I kindly remind you. If you don't listen to the old man, you will suffer in front of you. ”
Sister-in-law Huang angrily shook her hand back to the house, and the door closed loudly throughout the building.
"Come in, sister!"
The third brother looked at me and laughed so hard that his eyelashes trembled: "Who said that Xiaolu always listens to others, isn't this good?"
"Huh?"
"It's okay, it's okay...... Sister, you look so good in this!" Kevin stood up and looked around me.
Although I knew that he was saying this to change the subject, I still turned around beautifully.
The hem of the pink gown, the tassels floated up, and the denim jeans looked like a fashion brand twenty years later.
"It's not in vain that I've wasted a piece of good material, this dress is the same as a model! ”
"Can you pull it! Her flesh is tightly hidden, she's thin? ”
"Get out!" I went up and beat me up.
"Wait, Xiao Jing, how do you know where her flesh is hidden? It's hidden, how did you see it? Isn't it...... Peeking at people taking a shower?"
Kevin raised three fingers and said solemnly: "Heaven and earth conscience!
I haven't beaten it yet, and I sharpened my knife to the pigs and sheep.
After picking a few samples from the third brother, I walked out with Kevin in my hand.
"You say......" I looked at Kevin, thought for a moment and shook my head. I really don't know how to say the conjecture about the third brother.
"You want to talk about the orientation of the third brother. ”
"Did you put a detector in my head?"
Kevin ruffled my hair back and forth, and the corners of his mouth were raised, "Guess, why don't you take a look?"
I knocked his hand off and slapped him on the head by the way: "Get down to business!"
He rubbed his head and looked aggrieved: "What do you say about the orientation of the third brother? Didn't you say it when you measured the size that day, he doesn't like women." ”
"Isn't that a joke?"
"Who knows. ”
My head began to frantically flash through all kinds of related content that I had read, and there was no excitement of a rotten girl, more of a feeling was ...... Worry.
"Not angry?"
"Who was angry just now? Why don't I know?"
I tossed and turned all night about my reaction tonight, and I didn't figure it out, I always felt that the thought was in my head and needed to be rushed out, but it was always almost something. The result of a night of tossing is that when I get up in the morning, I don't have any energy at all, and I don't want to go to work at all, but in this era, I don't know if Brother Hui has a big brother...... Thinking of Brother Hui's big back combed yesterday, I feel that he should be the master of the waist and the big brother. I grabbed my hair, got up hard, and met life strongly. When I looked in the mirror, the dark circles under my eyes were almost drooping to my mouth, which was really demoralizing.
"Sixth brother early!"
The sixth brother answered, and he didn't raise his eyelids. Accustomed to this way of communication, I walked past him with a sigh of relief.
"Wait. ”
"Huh?"
"Pay the utility bills. ”
I stood in place and counted the days, three weeks at most, definitely less than a month, and just about to speak, the sixth spoke unusually first: "You have lived in for less than a month, but today is the day of collecting water and electricity bills, and the number is calculated from the day you move in, don't worry about me cheating you." Water and electricity bills, public area maintenance fees, a total of 10 yuan, public area maintenance fees are paid once a quarter. ”
I groped for the two five-piece pieces that I finally found in my pocket, and reluctantly handed them to the sixth brother, as if I had personally sent my own child to the execution ground.
Seeing that the sixth brother stuffed the money into the drawer without even checking it, he continued to scribble on the paper as if he didn't see me. Sure enough, in addition to their appearance, these two brothers have much worse temperament and temperament...... I remembered that Mr. Shen didn't ask us about the sixth brother last time, and it is estimated that the relationship with the sixth brother is okay. I'm just curious why he pulled us to ask the third brother about his daily life, and just ask the sixth brother directly!
Thinking like this, I unconsciously glanced at the sixth brother, but just happened to bump into his gaze, and the look seemed to ask me, "Is there anything else?" frightened me and hurriedly ran away.
"Sister, we have also saved some money recently, look, are you going to live in another place?"
I spread the money on the bed one by one, for fear of missing one.
"Not to mention whether we have enough money, the key is that I can't bear the third brother. ”
"I think you can't bear the third brother's color TV......"
I pulled out Zhang Fifty and slapped Kevin's head hard and said, "Die smart for you!
"Sister...... "Sister," he stared at the big bill in his hand, frowning, "I earned most of the money, so you gave me a little bit?
"It's too little to pay me back!"
"Don't!" Kevin quickly slipped the money into his pants pocket.
"Why don't we save up money to buy a means of transportation, so that we don't have to crowd the bus...... Bicycle?It's a bit far to commit, it's not suitable...... Car...... Can't afford it. ”
"Motorcycles, I see a lot of people driving here on the street. ”
"Yes!
I remembered that my mother opened a little Mulan to send me to school when I was a child, and I suddenly missed her very much.
Although he remembered what to buy, he asked the third brother about it, and the motorcycle cost at least one or two hundred thousand, and his confidence was hit again in an instant. But when we think about the upcoming trip to the playground, we look forward to it again.
A weekday's playground with a choice of options. Even the ice cream queue lasted less than five minutes. Half of the project was completed by the two of us in the morning, and we decided to take a break and play in the afternoon. So I found a snack bar and started spending a lot of money......
"Let's buy another grilled sausage......"
"You can buy it after you finish eating!"
The two of us were eating and playing lively, and I felt that the big umbrella above my head was almost unbearable.
"I'll tell you, when I was a kid, I was like that little girl over there. "I pointed to the little girl with two pigtails in the distance, because she was exactly like me when I was a child, almost like she came out of my photo album.
"It's so cute, sister, you looked so good when you were a child!"
"That's a must, I was like her when I was a child, and when I wore a small flower plaid skirt, I was especially welcome. I think she looks quite similar to the photo I had when I was a child, and I guess she was only six or seven years old. You see, I have a similar dress, and I am still at home at home like a baby pressed by my mother!"
Kevin looked at the little girl and was happy: "Don't say it, it looks really similar to you." Sister...... Wait a minute...... You probably didn't come here when you were a kid, did you?"
