Chapter 11 A Twisty and Strange Day
"Didi, Didi. "A few steam chirps came up from downstairs.
"Xiaoxiao, hurry up, they've been waiting downstairs for a long time. ”
This weekend, the four of them made an appointment to go to the suburbs together, Xiaobai and Hong Xiaoyang were already waiting downstairs, and they were just urging the two of them with the sound of a horn.
"Don't rush, don't rush, my makeup is still a little bit over, haven't I only waited for twenty or thirty minutes, what's the urgency. ”
"A little later, when I get out of the city, I'm going to get through again. ”
"Okay, five minutes, wait another five minutes and I'll make sure it's done. ”
"Okay, I'll go down first, you come down as soon as you're done. ”
Ning Hua went downstairs and got into the car.
"Why did Ning Hua come down alone, Xiaoxiao?" asked Hong Xiaoyang.
"Xiaoxiao is putting on makeup? I'll have to wait a few more minutes. ”
"You women are really troublesome, it's hard to go out, I can get out of the door in ten minutes, and I'll go out a few times when you wait. ”
"You, just wait slowly, there will be more times when you two are together like this in the future. Xiaobai said.
"Xiaobai, you have been with Sun Yating for a few years before, and you have to wait so long to go out?"
"Ahem. Xiaobai coughed twice.
"Xiaobai, what are you coughing up, Xiaoyang asked you, but you answered. Ning Hua said jealously.
"I ....... ”
"Xiaoxiao is here, here. Hong Xiaoyang saw Li Xiao come out and hurriedly changed the topic.
Xiaobai glared at Hong Xiaoyang fiercely.
"Brother, don't stare at me like that, I know it's wrong. ”
"I'm sorry, I'm late, what are you talking about, what's wrong. ”
"You're here just in time, or someone would be unlucky. Xiaoyang said.
"Who's unlucky. ”
"It's definitely not me. ”
"It's not who you are, it won't be Xiaobai. ”
"You guessed it, it's him. ”
"You kid is unlucky, if it weren't for you and me, would I be unlucky?, sit tight and go. ”
"What's wrong with them. The car started, and Li Xiao asked Ning Hua, who was sitting in the back seat.
Xiaoyang mentioned Sun Yating. Ning Hua whispered.
"Oh, who doesn't have an ex yet. Xiaoyang, tell us about your ex-girlfriend too. Li Xiao deliberately said loudly.
"Yes, Xiaoyang, you also told me about you and your ex-girlfriend, and now that you have made it clear, Xiaoxiao is with you, and you can rest assured. Ning Hua also said.
"I don't have any ex-girlfriends, the only time I can be considered in love is in middle school, when I was ignorant in adolescence, thinking that holding hands is falling in love. ”
"And what about you two?"
"Later, she was admitted to the university, but I was not admitted, and I went to be a soldier for two years, and I had no contact for a long time. ”
"You're 25 years old this year, haven't you been in love since you came back from the army?" Ning Hua asked.
"I didn't talk about it, but I went on a few blind dates, but I didn't meet the right one. ”
"It's not suitable, your conditions are not bad. Li Xiao said.
It's not that the people he likes don't look down on him, and the people he likes don't want to deal with him. Xiaobai interjected.
"What about your unit, don't you have a suitable female colleague?" Ning Hua said.
"We really don't have a suitable female colleague in our unit, but two days ago, the cafeteria aunt said that she wanted to introduce her daughter to me. ”
"Well, blessed are you. Xiaobai smiled.
"Don't talk nonsense, my brother finally got serious. Hong Xiaoyang glanced at Xiaobai.
"You've been working for a few years, is your unit being treated well? Hua'er and I are about to turn regular, I don't know what the situation is in other units," Li Xiao said.
"I have been working in my current unit for three years, and in the second year after I came back, I spent some money and dragged my acquaintances into the public institution. Working 9 to 5 is easy, unlike you in the company, you don't have to work overtime, the job is stable, and the salary has always been like that. ”
"What is it? Li Xiao asked.
"There is not much left every month except for the mortgage and car loan. ”
"What about your parents?" asked Ning Hua.
"My parents are ordinary teachers, and the down payment on the house is still the money taken by two old people, and they have worked all their lives and are old, so naturally I have to pay the mortgage myself. ”
"It's not easy for parents anymore, to understand them, like my parents and Xiaoxiao's parents are still in the countryside, and they can't afford to pay a down payment for us in the rest of their lives. Ning Hua said.
"You have a little white, and there will be more houses in the future, and you have to ask your parents to pay you a down payment. Li Xiao said.
"Xiaoxiao, I told you all about my family's situation, you won't think I'm not a novice, okay. ”
"No, of course not. Li Xiao smiled.
"Xiaoyang, this is how much you think about it, how can Xiaoxiao be such a person, I didn't know that you had to repay the mortgage and car loan every month, last time you spent so much money for Xiaoxiao and bought a lot of things, she was too late to thank you, how could she think that your family is not good, isn't it Ah Xiaoxiao. ”
"Yes, yes, yes. Li Xiao asked a little stiffly.
"That's good, I'm afraid that you will compare me with Xiaobai, you said that how many people can have Xiaobai's family background, and being his friend is both a pride and an inferiority. ”
"What are you kid inferior, can't you pay off the mortgage, I'll give you a suite when you get married." ”
"You said it yourself, I didn't force you, you are both witnesses, and what you said can't be counted. ”
"I promise to count, but I have one condition. ”
"There are still conditions, have you regretted it again?"
"My condition is that the bride must be Li Xiao. ”
"Xiaoxiao, I heard it, hurry up and promise others. Ning Hua tried his best to match the two.
It's good to be rich, and you can speak so hard, and you can also guide other people's marriages. Li Xiao thought to himself.
"Yes, Xiaoxiao agreed to be Xiaoyang's girlfriend, this kid will never dare to bully you in the future, he will treat you badly, Xiao Ning and I will not let him go. Xiaobai said.
"Xiaoxiao, as long as you promise to be my girlfriend, I promise to be good to you in the future, you will spend all the money you earn every month, and you will listen to you in the future. Hong Xiaoyang turned to Li Xiao in the back seat and swore affectionately.
"Say yes. Ning Hua looked anxious.
The car drove out of the city and was driving on a remote road. Suddenly, Xiaobai slammed on the brakes, and the four of them were pushed forward by inertia.
"What's wrong. They asked.
"Something seems to have stuck in the tire. ”
Xiaobai and Hong Xiaoyang got out of the car to inspect, and Ning Hua and Li Xiao also followed.
"Xiaobai, there is really a nail here, the tire is leaking, do you have a spare tire?" Hong Xiaoyang said after checking the front tire.
"Oops, I didn't have a spare tire in the car. ”
"Then what should we do, we are still far from our destination. ”
"There's no repair shop around here, but what should I do? Li Xiao said.
"We are now almost in the middle of the destination and the city, 32 kilometers from the city, 27 kilometers from the destination, and the place where we stand is called Sanquan Village. Ning Hua checked the map and said.
"Sanquan Village, you're talking about the number three, the spring of spring water. Hong Xiaoyang asked.
"yes. ”
"I heard that there is a temple in Sanquan Village that is very spiritual, why don't we burn incense and worship the Buddha. ”
"You still believe that. Xiaobai said.
"It's not that I don't believe it, but if I don't believe it, I don't believe it. You see that Ning Hua was robbed a few days ago, and you, your ex-girlfriend is always entangled, I think you two should go and burn incense for the Bodhisattva. ”
"Yes, I also think I should go and worship the Bodhisattva, Hua'er has always had accidents recently, and it just so happens that we can't drive the car now, I think it's really time to burn incense. Li Xiao said.
"There is some truth in what I said, so let's call someone to drive the car and tow it away, and we will go to the temple you said to burn incense, but we don't know where this temple is. ”
"I'll go and ask the fellows nearby, you move the car to the side. ”
"Okay, you go and ask where the direction is, and how far it is. ”
Hong Xiaoyang walked away.
"Xiaobai, is what Xiaoyang said just now true?"
"Really, of course it's all true, he is the heaviest promise, what he says must count, you can rest assured, you can't be wrong with choosing him as your boyfriend. ”
"I'm not asking this, I'm asking ......"
"What, do you mean his girlfriend? This is also true, I really haven't been in a relationship seriously. ”
"What about the others, like his working family?"
"It's also the truth to you, I didn't lie to you. Don't worry, his parents are very good. ”
"What's the matter, Xiaoxiao, you asked so carefully, but what else are you worried about?" Ning Hua said.
"No, no, rest assured. After Li Xiao confirmed it. The fact that Xiaoyang's family background is too much worse than Xiaobai's is a little unsatisfactory.
"I said hello, and the fellow said that the temple would be less than two miles to the right. Hong Xiaoyang ran back and said.
"Alright, let's go. ”
"Fortunately, I didn't wear high heels today, otherwise this foot would have been miserable. ”
"yes, it's not far away. ”
"Lingquan Temple. Three big characters stood at the entrance of the temple.
"How does this temple look so tattered. ”
"It shows that this is an ancient temple, and the wish made seems to be effective, and you see that there is an endless stream of pilgrims. ”
"There are a lot of people. ”
"Have you all figured out what you want to make?" Li Xiao asked.
"I figured it out. Xiaoyang said.
"I've thought about it too. Ning Hua replied.
"I've thought about it too. "Little white words.
"We've thought about it, let's go in quickly. ”
"Get in. ”
The four of them burned incense, worshiped the Bodhisattva devoutly, and walked out of the temple.
"What a wish you have made? Li Xiao asked.
"You can't say it, and if you say it, it won't work. Ning Hua glanced at Xiaobai.
"Yes, wishes can only be assured. Xiaobai also looked at Ning Hua.
"What about you, what wish did you make?" Li Xiao asked Hong Xiaoyang again.
"It's about you, I can't say more, I don't want to say more, I'm afraid it won't work, what do you promise. ”
"All I wish is that every wish I wish will come true. ”
"Wow, so greedy. ”
An old man walked over.
"Hello master. Ning Hua and Xiao Bai saluted in front.
"The two donors were in love with Xu just now. The old man stopped.
"Master, how do you know. Ning Hua asked.
"Master, you're right. Xiaobai's wish was also spoken.
"It's not speculation, just look at the two of you, you know that the two donors are both affectionate and righteous people. ”
"Master, they all say that the wish made in your temple is very spiritual, so can the wish that the four of us just made come true? ”
"The Buddha has crossed all beings, and people should cross by themselves, Amitabha. ”
"I have a relationship with the two of you, so I'll say more. The corners of the female benefactor's eyes were bloody, and she was afraid that it was a sign of great calamity. The old man continued.
"Master, what kind of catastrophe, please speak more clearly. Xiaobai asked anxiously.
"Everyone in the world has a fate, and there are both catastrophes and great fortunes, and it depends on whether this female benefactor can escape this catastrophe. ”
"Master, since you don't want to say what kind of disaster it is, I want to ask how to resolve it when it comes. Ning Hua asked.
"Far from the villain. ”
"Master, look at me, what about me?" Li Xiao blocked the old man's way.
"Do not do any evil, but do all good. Amitabha. After the master finished speaking, he took advantage of the excitement and left.
"What does this old monk mean, he said it so mysteriously. Li Xiao said.
"Don't be afraid, there will always be a solution to things, I will always be by your side to ensure that you do not have any disasters. Xiaobai said to Ning Hua.
"Yes, Hua'er, maybe this old man's nonsense has scared you. Li Xiao said.
"I don't think you can be trusted, I think you're going to get rich lately. Xiaoyang said.
"Let's go, let's go"
Ning Hua looked back at the old man's back and thought for a long time. Who is the villain?
Hong Xiaoyang's phone rang, it was Wei Dongming.
"Hey, Xiao Ming, why did you call me today. ”
"Xiaobai, are you with him?" said the person on the other end of the phone.
"Here, we just finished worshipping the Bodhisattva together at Lingquan Temple. ”
"Together? ”
"And Xiaobai's girlfriend, and ...... Hey, hey, hey. ”
"Whose phone. ”
"Xiao Ming, what about you, I hung up the phone before I finished speaking. ”
"Maybe there's no signal. ”
"It's also possible. ”
"Let's go, the car is coming, let's get in. ”
"She is with Xiaobai again, and it seems that the lesson she was given last time was not enough. On the other side of the phone, Sun Yating said angrily.
"What are you doing, I haven't finished speaking, why did you hang up on me. ”
"I don't want to hear from her that she's with Xiaobai. Sun Yating threw the things on the table to the ground.
"You will always have Xiaobai in your heart. Wei Dongming whispered to himself.
"Yes, I just love him, but I can't see the two of them together, and I just want to snatch him back. ”
"Hey, I said let's not go to that place today, the tire is broken in the middle of the road, I'm afraid it's unlucky. Hong Xiaoyang said.
"We just worshipped the Bodhisattva, so what is there to be afraid of. ”
"You forgot what the master said just now, Ning Hua has been in trouble recently, you better pay more attention. ”
"Makes sense. If we don't go where we are, where are we going now? Speaking of Ning Hua, Xiao Bai was very careful.
"Xiaobai, don't you have a villa in the suburbs? ”
"Villa, really. Xiaobai, you can show us. Li Xiao was very excited when he heard this.
"There's a villa in the suburbs, but you didn't say you were going there today, I didn't bring the key. ”
"It's a pity, then you can take us outside to see. Li Xiao said.
"What is there to see in this appearance, do you want to go?" Xiao Bai asked Ning Hua.
"Since Xiaoxiao and Xiaoyang want to go so much, then let's go and have a look together. Ning Hua was also very curious about the villa in his mouth, although it was only an appearance, she had never seen it before.
"Look at Hua'er, let's go. ”
"Okay. ”
……
"You see, this is my villa. Xiaobai stopped in front of a large three-story house surrounded by iron fences.
"Wow, Xiaobai, your villa is really big, and there is such a big lawn in front of you, it's a pity that you don't live there. ”
"My parents are usually very busy at work, my brother is abroad, and I am staying at school now, so the house is basically empty, and I only come here occasionally when the family is resting. ”
"You're so extravagant, you only live in such a big house once in a while. Li Xiao said.
"It's better to have money. No, Xiaobai, I see that there seems to be something wrong with you upstairs. Hong Xiaoyang glanced upstairs.
"What's wrong, don't talk nonsense in broad daylight. Ning Hua said.
"Xiaobai, are you sure your parents are not there? Look at the shadow of a person in the window on the right. Hong Xiaoyang pointed to the rightmost window on the second floor and said.
"Yes, yes, yes, there is a figure. Li Xiao also poked his head out to look.
"That room is my father's study, could it be a thief?"
"It can't be your parents in there. Ning Hua asked.
"Probably not, you stay in the car and don't move, if there is any situation, call the police in time, I'll go in and see." ”
"Xiaobai, you pay attention to safety. Ning Hua was a little worried.
The three of them saw that Bai Yitao had already climbed over the fence and was tentatively walking forward.
"Xiaoyang, I'm still not at ease, what if it's a thief, if something happens to Xiaobai, you can go in and take a look." Ning Hua said.
"I feel the same way, too. With that, he unbuckled his seat belt and got out of the car.
The door was not locked, and Xiaobai had already entered.
A few minutes later, Hong Xiaoyang climbed over the fence and over the lawn to the front of the house. The door opened, and Xiaobai and his father walked out at the same time......
The two returned to the car, and Xiaobai was obviously thinking about something.
"Xiaobai, it was your father just now, if the thief knew that he was discovered by you, he would have to fight with you. Li Xiao said.
"yes, you were too impulsive. Ning Hua grabbed Xiaobai's arm worriedly.
Xiaobai also held Ning Hua's hand tightly, and then started the car.
The car had just turned right, and after driving less than 1,000 meters, Xiaobai suddenly stopped.
"Where's the wallet I was just now? Xiaobai touched his body.
"Oh no, it must have fallen off when I was over the wall just now, you wait a while, I'll go back and look for it." ”
Xiaobai got out of the car and hurriedly ran back.
"You two are waiting for me to go and see it too. ”
Ning Hua felt that something was wrong, she also got out of the car and followed Xiao Bai, and when she was about to get close to the villa, Ning Hua found that he was quietly squatting in a corner and did not enter the villa to find his wallet, she looked at Xiao Bai silently.
In the villa, his father came out of the gate with a sexy young woman in his arms and got into the car, Ning Hua and Bai saw this scene at the same time, and Xiao Bai clenched his fists angrily.
Ning Hua took a few steps back, pretending not to have seen it. Xiaobai walked towards him.
"How's it going, have you found your wallet?" asked Ning Hua.
"Well, I found it. Xiaobai replied very lowly.
Back in the car, neither of them spoke again.
"Why did you come back so soon, did you find your wallet?" Li Xiao asked.
"Found it. ”
"Xiaoyang, you come to drive. As soon as the car started, Xiaobai immediately turned off the engine again and said to Hong Xiaoyang in the co-pilot.
The two swapped places. Not long after the car drove out, Xiaoyang hinted to Xiaobai to talk about him and Li Xiao, but Xiaobai tilted his head to the right as if he didn't see it, and looked out of the window with a melancholy look.
"Xiaoxiao, what do you think...... What do you think of me. ”
"That's good. ”
"Then you, you can ....... ”
Before he finished speaking, Li Xiao's mobile phone rang.
"It's my mom. Li Xiao glanced at his phone and said.
……
Li Xiao finished answering the phone with a restless expression.
"What's the matter, what did your mom say. ”
"My brother is sick, and my mother said that she will bring my brother to Changxi tomorrow. ”
Hong Xiaoyang looked at several critical moments about to succeed, but he was always interrupted by other things, and he was very annoyed and helpless......
