Tongtong put her arms around my shoulders, shook them gently, and called me coquettishly: "Mom...... Mommy ......"
Seeing my daughter's coquettish appearance, I smiled, hugged her and asked softly, "What's the matter?"
Tongtong's big black and white eyes rolled "dripping", and I knew that she had something to say to me as soon as I saw her like this, but I didn't dare to say it yet.
So I smiled helplessly and encouraged her, "If you have anything to say, can you?"
Tongtong put a finger to my mouth and whispered to me: "Then you can say it, don't get angry after listening to it, or I won't say it." ”
Seeing Tongtong's pretentious little monster appearance, I laughed "poof" and said to her softly: "Just say, how can my mother really be angry with you? It's all for your good to be angry, pretending to scare you." ”
Hearing me say this, Tongtong put her mind at ease, she thought about it and said to me slowly: "Last time I went abroad, my father bought a dress for that woman, saying that it was a birthday gift for her, it seems to be called Chanel's brand, I heard that the brand is very expensive, I don't know how much, but at least one or two thousand." Anyway, the woman was so proud when she received this gift, she tried it in front of the dressing mirror, and I got angry when I looked at her, and then I ......"
Tongtong's words came to an abrupt end, and I hurriedly asked, "And then how are you?"
Tongtong looked at me and continued, "I'll just ...... I ran to her room while she and my dad were out shopping, found the dress in her closet, and used scissors...... Draw a big hole in the back!"
When my daughter said this, I was dumbfounded, and then reprimanded her, "Tongtong, how can you do this?"
Tongtong shouted at me aggrievedly: "Mom, I'm not worth it for you! In the past, when you and my father were reluctant, I couldn't afford to buy a dress worth thousands of yuan, but now I see that after my father dumped you, he spent money for her like this, of course I was angry in my heart!"
As she spoke, tears began to appear in my daughter's eyes, and she looked at me with a pouting mouth, and the grievances in her eyes were self-evident.
Seeing this, I fell silent.
Tongtong is telling the truth, before Deng Wenliang and I were divorced, once I took my daughter to a shopping mall with a female colleague and took a fancy to a set of off-white skirts, which were simple in style but quite well-made.
At that time, the female colleague said that the skirt matched my skin color very well, and asked me to give it a try, and I was a little tempted, coupled with the encouragement of the shopping guide, I finally tried it, and the effect after wearing it was really very good.
But when I looked at the price, 1780 yuan, and without a little discount, I was a little discouraged.
Because the price of the clothes I usually wear, except for the coat, are a few hundred yuan, rarely more than 500 yuan, and I generally don't buy ordinary clothes that exceed 1,000 yuan, which is a long-term thrifting habit.
Even if Deng Wenliang's career improved later, he asked me to buy some high-end clothes, but my habit has not changed, because the habit has become natural, I feel that it is not worth it to spend nearly 2,000 yuan to buy a set of such an ordinary skirt, because this kind of skirt will be discounted very hard after the season, sometimes it can even be discounted to three or four times, I would rather buy it when the season is discounted, and then wear it the next year, then I will feel that it is worth it.
Daughter Tongtong remembers these things, so she said so at this time.
I looked at Tongtong, sighed softly, slowly hugged my daughter into my arms, and whispered to her: "Your intentions, my mother understands, but we Tongtong are people who want to do great things in the future, and it is not worth it to worry about people like her." ”
My Tongtong is a sensible child, and when she heard my tone so sad, she nodded slightly, although she may not understand all my words.
Seeing my daughter's reaction, I was still pleased, so I stroked her little face and asked her softly: "Later, she didn't embarrass you, did she?"
When Tongtong heard me ask this, she smiled slyly and told me quickly: "No! Later, when she found out, she was also angry, and I heard her stomping her feet in her room in anger! But there was no evidence! She didn't dare to do anything to me!"
Hearing this, I really sweated for my daughter, and I quickly asked her, "Then didn't your father suspect you later?"
Tongtong blinked mischievously and whispered to me: "My father came to ask me later, but he didn't ask directly, just asked me if I had ever entered Yang Kexin's room?"
I smiled helplessly and scratched my daughter's little nose and muttered, "You......"
Tongtong scowled his neck arrogantly, and said to me: "I also asked my father, why did you ask me like this?" He said that it was nothing, and then I told him that if they did this to me again, I would not go there in the future, so that my father would not dare to say anything, he only said that I should study hard, and tell him what I wanted, and then he went out. ”
My heart was finally completely relaxed.
I took my daughter into my arms again, stroked her soft hair, and said to her gently: "Forget about the past, but don't do that in the future, remember what your mother said to you, we Tongtong are people who want to do big things in the future, and you can't waste your precious time because of these small things, understand?"
My daughter snuggled in my arms and nodded as if she didn't understand: "Mom, I understand, I listen to you." ”
When I heard my daughter's words, I smiled with relief.
***
After the operation of the fast food restaurant experienced the initial boom, the turnover gradually stabilized, except for the expenses for the workers, the profit is still satisfactory to me, although it is not to talk about the daily income, but finally I have the final say in my own business, it is much better than working for others.
Because I have more leisure time after running a fast food restaurant, I have more time to meet with Haichao and Xinnuo, at this time they all began to enthusiastically help me introduce my boyfriend, in fact, I was still not ready to accept a new man into my life, but I couldn't stand them always said, I thought left and right, and felt that I could also consider this problem in the next step.
But at this time, I received a call from Zhu Yunxiu again.
It was an evening when the lights were on, and I was sitting in the living room watching TV after dinner, with a standing lamp on next to the sofa.
At this moment, my mobile phone rang, and I picked it up and saw that it was Zhu Yunxiu calling.
I was a little hesitant to answer the call, but it would be rude not to answer, so I finally got through.
On the phone, Zhu Yunxiu asked me gently, "Xiao Su, how are you doing lately?"
I politely replied, "I'm okay, Brother Zhu, are you okay?"
Zhu Yunxiu replied with a smile, "I'm fine too," and then said to me slowly, "I heard that your fast food restaurant has opened?"
I thought to myself, Zhu Yunxiu's news was really well-informed, so I had to smile helplessly, and said to him, "Yes, it's already open," and then explained, "Because I came from someone else's hand, I didn't spend too much money, and the funds in my hand were enough, so I didn't bother Brother Zhu." ”
When Zhu Yunxiu heard me say this, he smiled helplessly and muttered, "You, you're just too polite." ”
I also smiled a little awkwardly, and the atmosphere was at an impasse for a moment, and we were both silent with each other, not speaking for a moment.
Later, it was Zhu Yunxiu who opened his mouth first, and he said to me slowly: "Xiao Su, I want to ask you out to sit for a while, I don't know if it's convenient for you now?"
When I heard this, I was stunned, looked at my watch, and it was already seven o'clock in the evening, so I subconsciously asked him, "Now?"
Zhu Yunxiu replied affirmatively: "Yes, it's now, is it okay?"
For a while, I was in a dilemma, and I didn't know whether to say yes or no, and if I said no, did it seem that I was too petty? After all, it was just an ordinary meeting between friends, and it didn't mean that there would be any excessive development.
Seeing that I was hesitating, Zhu Yunxiu smiled and comforted me again: "I just want to sit down with you for a cup of tea and chat." Don't worry, I won't delay you for too long, and I don't have to worry that Brother Zhu will eat you, I will send you back after drinking tea. ”
When I heard that, I was a little embarrassed.
Although Deng Wenliang said that Zhu Yunxiu was a nouveau riche who started with real estate, in fact, in my heart, I have always thought that Zhu Yunxiu has a kind of gentle and elegant temperament of a Confucian businessman, and I always feel that he is an excellent man with grace and culture.
So, I whispered to Zhu Yunxiu on the other side of the phone: "Brother Zhu said this, it seems that I am Su Man's little family, I am just afraid that I will disturb you and your family too much at night, if there is no inconvenience over there, then it is okay for us to find a place to have a cup of tea." ”
Hearing me say this, Zhu Yunxiu laughed and said: "Hehe, I don't have anything to disturb here, your sister-in-law and a few relatives and friends went to the Maldives to play, and they won't come back until a few days later, so it's decided, I'll pick you up?"
I quickly replied, "No, no, I'll take a taxi myself, can you tell me the location?"
Zhu Yunxiu smiled and stopped: "Hey, don't be so polite to me, I know that you moved back to your original house to live, in Baiyun Community, right? Actually, I also went from home, so it's also a matter of the way to pick you up, nothing inconvenient, then it's decided, I'll call you when I get to the gate of your community in a while?"
Speaking of which, I didn't want to make any more excuses, so I had to reply helplessly: "Okay, I'm living in Baiyun Community now, and I'll wait for your call." ”
Putting down Zhu Yunxiu's phone, I hurriedly went to touch up my makeup, and then went to the wardrobe to find a suit suitable for going out at night, after all, Zhu Yunxiu is a person on the scene, and I can't wear too shabby when I go out with him.
After doing all this, Zhu Yunxiu's call also came.
I hurriedly picked up the phone: "Hello?"
Zhu Yunxiu's magnetic and generous voice came through the radio waves: "Xiao Su, my car has arrived at the gate of your community, it is a white Mercedes-Benz, license plate number XXXX, you come out." ”
I hid the panic in my heart and hurriedly responded, "Hey, okay, I'll come down right away." Then I quickly tidied up my dress, picked up my little kun bag, and walked briskly downstairs.
Walking outside the door of the community, I really saw a snow-white Mercedes-Benz sedan parked there, I slowly stepped forward, at this time Zhu Yunxiu had rolled down the window, he smiled and waved to me, and then opened the door on the passenger side of the passenger seat for me.
Today's Zhu Yunxiu is dressed very casually, with a high-end shirt with a stand-up collar and khaki slacks, with his elegant temperament, the whole person exudes a kind of confidence and open-mindedness of a successful person.
I got into his car with three points of apprehension and seven points of anxiety, but he was still as gentle and amiable as ever, looked at me and smiled faintly, and then said softly: "You are still quite easy to find here." ”
I smiled awkwardly and was speechless for a moment, when I inadvertently glanced out of the slowly sliding window and spotted a familiar figure standing on the side of the road, looking at me.
