"You said that all the people living around here are international students? There are no older overseas Chinese who live alone? Women, who should be in their early forties?"

He and Zhao Xiaoya had already walked out of the room, ready to walk around and familiarize themselves with this area. Chen Chuliang temporarily believed that the address given to him by Chu Ci was correct, and this address was translated by Zhao Xiaoya as where she lived, so Chen Chuliang once again confirmed with Zhao Xiaoya some conditions of the person he was looking for, to see if he could let Zhao Xiaoya provide more accurate information.

Zhao Xiaoya went to push her bicycle and said, "If you follow the conditions of the person you are looking for, in this red leaf town, probably only the neighbor aunt is eligible." First, she lives alone in Toronto, and second, she should be forty years old, although she looks young. The third aunt is an overseas Chinese, and her ancestral home is Yanjing. ”

Chen Chuliang was a little unable to sit still when he heard this, just now he first excluded Zhao Xiaoya's so-called neighbor aunt, mainly because he thought that the neighbor aunt in Zhao Xiaoya's mouth lived with his son, he thought it should not be his mother, and now he heard Zhao Xiaoya say that the neighbor aunt lives alone, and the conditions are consistent with his mother in all aspects, Chen Chuliang frowned and asked her: "What is Auntie's surname?"

Zhao Xiaoya said, "Aunt Chu." ”

Chen Chuliang asked again: What about her son?

Zhao Xiaoya said: "I haven't seen his son appear." It's just that the aunt seems to like her son very much, and I'm afraid that he won't be able to get a daughter-in-law. I've been busy introducing him to someone.,I don't know if my aunt has introduced other international students besides me.。。 ”

Chen Chuliang opened his mouth wide, obviously incredible. At the same time, there is a bad premonition in my heart. Zhao Xiaoya's neighbor's aunt's son can't be me, right? What if my mother is still worried that she won't be able to marry her daughter-in-law, so she has always had this knot?

There was an indescribable feeling in his heart, which made Chen Chuliang panic, and Chen Chuliang vaguely felt that he and his mother might just be a stone's throw away.

"That's Auntie's house, right?"

Chen Chuliang took the bicycle from Zhao Xiaoya's hand and pushed it out, and he had already seen the townhouse in front of him. If his mother lives inside, then he is already close at hand, thinking about how to meet his mother.

I believe that even if it is so bland that you don't say a word when you meet, probably tears will flow down without a fight.

Zhao Xiaoya didn't even see the complicated look in Chen Chuliang's eyes, and said very flatly: "Yes, Auntie lives in such a big house alone. So a lot of the time, I go over and chat with her whenever I have time. Very good guy, better than my mom. ”

Chen Chuliang retracted his gaze and said with a smile: "Then I'll go over and have a look when I'm free." ”

Zhao Xiaoya nodded and said, "Auntie went to the town market to buy vegetables, but she will go to the town church to sit first, and when she comes back, it should be noon, when you go there." Now she's not at home. ”

Zhao Xiaoya reminded Chen Chuliang of when the best time to pass. Chen Chuliang listened to it in his heart, anyway, he had already determined that his mother might be the neighbor aunt in Zhao Xiaoya's mouth, so he was not in a hurry to meet when he would meet, nodded and said, "Then let's go around now?"

Chen Chuliang needs to calm down his mood now, so that he can use the best and most reassuring appearance to appear in front of his mother, so that she knows that she and her father have not been particularly hard over the years, lest she have been living in this shadow of fear and fear, and there will be a psychological burden. After all, there is the problem of Zhao Xiaoya's so-called daughter-in-law who is enthusiastic about her son.

Zhao Xiaoya's bicycle has been launched, and she must take Lao Chen to get familiar with this town. She didn't see that Lao Chen was actually thinking about something else, so she said, "Let's go, while walking, I will introduce you to the situation of Red Leaf Town, and I will take you around in the next few days." On Friday, it's time for me to invite someone to the party. ”

Because there was only one bicycle, it could only be ridden by Chen Chuliang, and Zhao Xiaoya sat in the back seat.

After Zhao Xiaoya sat down, Chen Chuliang skillfully rode to carry her. Then, Zhao Xiaoya was in charge of guiding the way, and Lao Chen rode along a certain clean street under her command.

On the streets of a foreign country, young men and women ride bicycles together and walk slowly along the clean and quiet streets, which is a little enviable to look at.

The most abundant tree in Canada is the maple leaf.

The streets are almost full of maple trees. Perhaps because the style of the whole city is lazy, even after ten o'clock in the morning, the town is still not very lively, like a peaceful place without contention.

Moving all the way, Zhao Xiaoya, who was sitting in the back of the car, said to Chen Chuliang: "The reason why this place is called Red Leaf Town is because in autumn, this town is surrounded by red." Do you see it, what time is it? Is there still a lot of businesses that have not opened their doors to do business, and even the hospitals are lazy, and the people here will never rush out in five minutes if they are willing to spend an hour doing something. ”

Riding Lao Chen's bicycle, Zhao Xiaoya has always emphasized to Chen Chuliang that Toronto is the most suitable city for life, because life on this side is slow-paced. No matter what you do, the person on this side will not seem busy.

After hearing this, Chen Chuliang smiled and said, "If this is the case in China, I am afraid that I would have starved to death a long time ago." ”

Zhao Xiaoya said: "The biggest benefit of this kind of life is that you have time at your disposal to do what you like to do. ”

Chen Chuliang asked her, "Then after you graduate, do you plan to stay in Canada?"

Zhao Xiaoya said: "Even if I want to stay, my parents won't allow it." You know, you can't have it both ways. ”

Chen Chuliang smiled and said, "You can bring your uncle and aunt here." ”

Zhao Xiaoya said with a smile: "If I had money, I would buy a few farms, become a farmer myself, and then take my parents over, and live here without going anywhere....."

"That's all there is to it, so why are you still studying? I'll lend you a few million, and you can buy two farms. As for repayment, it's also very simple, just make a personal promise. ”

Chen Chuliang suddenly regained his mood of taking advantage. Zhao Xiaoya sat at the back of the car and hammered him twice, the center of gravity of the bicycle was unstable, and Zhao Xiaoya hurriedly grabbed the corner of Lao Chen's clothes. "You guy is a loan shark, I can't afford to borrow it. ”

Chen Chuliang hummed a little song to calm down his mood.

The two rode for a while, as if they had left the town, and they could see the flat farm in the distance, Zhao Xiaoya asked Chen Chuliang not to go far, and said to him: "Go outside, there will be a farm." In fact, our Momiji Town is also a farm, but because of its development, it has become a small town. The farmers on those farms should be the most well-fed and well-fed people, and often invite others to visit the farm. ”

Chen Chuliang turned the head of the car, and the town that could be ridden in half an hour was not very big.

Zhao Xiaoya began to show the way again, and instead of returning the same way, she walked around the town.

At the other end of the town, Zhao Xiaoya asked Chen Chuliang: "Are you hungry, go, I mean you go to a particularly famous bakery." There's Toronto's signature delicacy, pea-cured meat bread. It is roasted with marinated tenderloin wrapped in pea flour. Add some mayonnaise, tomato slices and lettuce and serve it together in the middle, and it's delicious. ”

Hearing Zhao Xiaoya say this, Chen Chuliang was still a little hungry. Plus I also brought a person.

Chen Chuliang followed the path she pointed out and came to the door of a bakery.

Zhao Xiaoya stepped forward to negotiate with the shopkeeper with a white hat, and soon handed out two packages of packaged food from the window.

Zhao Xiaoya handed Lao Chen a bag and said happily: Taste it.

Chen Chuliang took it out and tasted it, it tasted good, and then he devoured it.

Seeing that he ate quickly, Zhao Xiaoya bought two more bags.

The two were on a stool in front of this bakery, eating local delicacies and chatting, like a couple who hadn't seen each other for a long time.

Before leaving, Zhao Xiaoya asked the bakery owner to bring her two more bags, put them in the bicycle frame, and told Chen Chuliang: "Take them for the neighbor's aunt." She loved the pea roast bread. ”

After walking around outside, almost the entire Momiji Town was turned, and the two of them came back on their bicycles. But inside the basket, there are some more vegetables that I just bought at the market. This should be the next few days, Zhao Xiaoya is going to fire.

It's already noon.

Chen Chuliang pushed the bicycle to the corner of the room and put it away, went into the house and drank saliva, feeling relaxed. Behind him, Zhao Xiaoya said to him: "Auntie should come back." Are you going alone? Or am I going with you? If you go alone, you will say that it is my friend, and I told my aunt earlier that my friend is coming, and she should know about you, and by the way, bring her the bread we just bought at the bakery. ”

Hearing Zhao Xiaoya say a lot, Chen Chuliang said, "I'll go alone." After speaking, while Zhao Xiaoya was still in the kitchen preparing to cook, Chen Chuliang went out with two big boxes brought from China.

Out of the door, he felt heavy with every step.

A little warm Yanggu sprinkled on his face, Chen Chuliang was thinking, what should he say in the first sentence when they meet?

He waited for this day, waited too long, in his memory, it seems that he has always dreamed of his mother, but it is always vague, he remembers when he was a child, he asked his father where his mother went, and his father looked sad that he couldn't answer. When I grew up, I didn't ask anymore, but it was an existence in my heart that no one was allowed to offend.

Now, when we are going to meet, my mother should be very young and very young, and she is also very beautiful, after all, no matter who has the most beautiful mother in her heart.

At a distance of dozens of meters, Chen Chuliang felt that the road was too long, the townhouse surrounded by fences and wooden fences, the gate of the hospital was ajar, Chen Chuliang walked to the door and took a deep breath, and pushed the door in.
