Chapter Twenty-Five: The Stinky Card
"Uncle Xie is not at home?" After being welcomed in, I saw that my adoptive father was not at home, so I asked casually.
"Your uncle Xie said that there is something going on at the construction site, go out and take a look. Mother replied.
"Construction site?" I wondered, although he was a coolie, but as far as I know, my adoptive father never went to work on the construction site.
"Yes, thanks to Gao Qiang, he said that his new project was short of manpower, so let Uncle Xie help. ”
That's a nice thing to say, and I can't help but admire Gao Qiang's words, "Help? What can he help?"
"Hey, don't underestimate your Uncle Jie, Gao Qiang has said it, your Uncle Xie is very capable, but he has helped a lot. ”
The more I talked, the more unpleasant it became, and I didn't bother to listen, so I turned and walked away.
"Come and eat. ”
After setting the dishes and chopsticks, my mother beckoned me to come over for dinner.
"Eat, I'm not hungry. I said shyly.
"Always shouting to lose weight, the body will not be able to stand it all the time. Mother said as she picked up the rice bowl, kept putting vegetables for Xie Kai, and urged him to eat more.
"Eat more to get better and grow up. "Mother's common words, I hid from the balcony to look at the scenery, I don't want to see any mother and son filial piety.
The comfort nest that I couldn't ask for in the past can no longer enter my eyes, God just likes this, and I am happy to see people feel aggrieved in their hearts.
After a while, I heard the clatter of dishes and chopsticks through the open balcony door, which was supposed to be the mother and son cleaning up after dinner.
I didn't know if I didn't move, and after a while, my mother called me to eat fruit, and I went back to the house.
"What's there to see out there? Stand for so long, be careful of getting cold. ”
I smiled and didn't reply, it's a joke to still catch a cold in the current season.
"Your aunt's craftsmanship is really good, she is about to catch up with Lao Jinhua, and I will go to learn from her one day. ”
I said yes and took a piece of chopped yacon and ate it.
"When are you and Gao Qiang going to get married?" asked her mother suddenly.
I chewed and swallowed slowly, and slowly spoke, "He said that I am still young, and I always have some grievances with him, let me think clearly, so as not to regret it later." ”
"What are these words? What is the good condition and age? These years and months are not smiling...... the poor and not smiling" The mother blurted out for a while, and laughed apologetically, "Mom just advises you to seize the opportunity, otherwise you will regret it the most." ”
I'm glad she temporarily took it in and didn't embarrass the mother and daughter.
"It's not early, Gao Qiang is almost time to go back, Mom, I'm leaving. "I got up, and the grinding sound of the leather couch under me gave me goosebumps.
"Okay, I'll send you. My mother got up and escorted me out the door.
"Are you going to Mom's house?" I returned to the villa, Gao Qiang had already returned, changed into home clothes, and was sitting in the living room watching the animal world.
Since I lived with him, he has changed his mouth, but he has left me a change of mouth fee.
"Hmm......" I replied lazily, not in a high mood, and went straight upstairs.
"Tired?" Gao Qiang followed upstairs, into the room, and followed me into the bathroom.
"Why are you coming in?" I threw him out, and my mind was full of what my mother said, and the more I looked at him, the more disgusted I became.
"No, I'm going to wash with you, it's like watching your concubine take a bath in the morning, if you don't have to go out for something, I'll do it for you at that time." ”
He helped me untie my clothes, like a boy who just understood things.
I was helped into the bathtub by him, and then he came in and covered me.
I got up early in the morning, and the side was empty, and I touched the temperature, and I estimated that he was having breakfast downstairs, and I turned over to make up for sleep, and when I got up, the elf beans had gone to the company.
I have a pimple in my heart, I am always depressed, and I don't have a good time going for a walk in the back garden.
"It's a pity, do you want to play cards?" Mrs. Neighbor Pavilion greeted me with a stone at her feet, across the courtyard wall.
The two houses were a five-minute walk away, and she took another shortcut to watch me go out in the backyard.
"I said, Mrs. Ge, you are also a person with status, what's the matter with picking up the wall? Isn't it that your old director is reluctant to pay you for the phone? Or are you worried about the one in my family who took the opportunity to take a look?"
Since being stimulated on the plane, I secretly decided that I must make a few friends, Mrs. Ge is a neighbor is also one of my goals, his husband and Elf Bean are business partners, the two have been in contact, and it is common to play a few rounds of mahjong on weekdays, and it is common to make some jokes.
"yes, I remember it's uncomfortable, I'll come and take a look. After saying that, Mrs. Ge deliberately put her hand on the pergola, stretched her neck and looked into the villa, laughing and laughing with me like a friend.
"I don't like to rub hemp, it's very noisy. "I rejected her, and she wouldn't let go.
"No, the fruits are ready, Auntie has also bought the vegetables, after playing mahjong, let's have some food and drink some wine together, it's better than a person guarding an empty house, now three are missing one, come quickly, don't let us wait for a long time." ”
I looked at her head just showing out of the wall, like a beautiful snake in the Hundred Grass Garden, "Okay, I'll go when I change my clothes." ”
Seeing that I agreed, Mrs. Ge immediately smiled, "Okay, wait for you, hurry up and ......" She urged and urged, but she grinded and stumbled me without knowing it.
"If you keep grinding, this game will really be yellow. Hearing me say this, she came to her senses, and went down with a smile, and heard the sound of "coo-dong" falling heavily across the courtyard wall.
"Oops, why don't you hold me?"
I couldn't help but laugh as I listened and went back to the cloakroom to change.
"Miss Ying, you want to go out?" The aunt who was cleaning saw that I was dressed in civilian clothes and didn't even carry my bag, so she asked me if I forgot to bring it.
"I'm going to play cards next door, and I don't have to prepare lunch for lunch. ”
Before she could say yes, I was already out of the house.
The front and back yards are covered with the entire lawn, and in the middle is a European-style three-section small building, which is direct and neat, just like the character of Mrs. Ge.
"You're so good, we've been waiting for you for a long time. Mrs. Ge said exaggeratedly, and came up and grabbed me to the recreation room.
The other two were already waiting inside, and I saw a strange male guest among them, and my feet froze.
"Today, Mrs. Li's family had a guest who couldn't take a break, so she specially sent his nephew over to play first, saying that he would come over when he was done. ”
As she spoke, Mrs. Ge pulled me to sit down, and she sat on my right hand, with Mrs. Zhang, whom I knew well, on my left hand, and Mrs. Li's nephew, who was about the same age as me.
I knew that they did it on purpose, that is, sitting opposite each other, they inadvertently raised their heads, and the corners of their eyebrows and eyes bumped into each other, which was even more embarrassing.
I deliberately only stared at the cards in my hand and refused to look up.
After a few rounds, Mrs. Li replaced her nephew, and I finally breathed a sigh of relief, and my body was a little sore.
"Second aunt, I'll go first, I wish you all a good time. Mrs. Lee's nephew said goodbye and left.
"What a good boy, it's just that the cards stink too much. Mrs. Ge commented.
