I was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to answer.

"Could it be that you bought the telescope just because you wanted to see Yu Lu wearing a vest?" Tang Wan asked me.

"How is that possible? I don't feel that way for Yu Lu at all, even if she is stripped naked, I won't have the slightest reaction. I denied.

"Do you still want to see her stripped naked?" Tang Wan looked at me.

"I'm just a metaphor. I sneered, reaching for the old sheet that Tang Wan was holding in her hand, "Give it to me." ”

Tang Wan twisted her shoulders: "I'm not so delicate, I can move." ”

"But it's not appropriate, haven't you seen people looking at you?" I said.

"What's inappropriate?" Tang Wan asked.

I sighed, glanced at Tang Wan, and felt a little sad in my heart, just like this night, with a chill in the coldness, it poured directly into my heart, making me have the urge to escape.

"You are a top student of Tsinghua University, working on the business machine street, dressed as a white-collar worker, with an outstanding temperament, but carrying an old bed sheet, don't you think this style of painting is a little out of place?" I said, "You should be carrying a leather bag." ”

I reached out again: "Give it to me." ”

"Don't touch me. Tang Wan's movements were more intense this time, and she distanced herself from me, "You can carry whatever I want, you can't control it." ”

Tang Wan's face was a little gray, as if she was complaining about something, she was very emotional, and there was a trace of hatred in her eyes when she looked at me.

This made me a little stunned, thinking that I had read it wrong.

"I won't take it, you come over a little, there's a car over there, be careful." I comforted Tang Wan.

Tang Wan didn't walk side by side with me anymore, but walked one step behind me.

Eight years ago, in high school, Tang Wan and I used to walk like this, the two of us walked from school to the supermarket in the city center, four stops away, more than 20 minutes, walked in the supermarket for nearly an hour, and finally bought her a bag of marshmallows and a cup of bubble tea.

Then hop on the last bus and head back to school before the school gates close.

The bus was empty, and she and I sat in the last two seats, she leaning against the window and I was next to her.

She was smiling.

But now, the smile is gone.

"I've arrived. I stood at the gate of the community and said to Tang Wan, "I live here." ”

"Hmm. Tang Wan glanced at the community, and then quieted down.

I waited for a while, but Tang Wan still lowered her head, as if she was thinking about something, holding the old bed sheet in her hand and clutching it tightly.

"Why don't you go up and sit down for a while?" I said.

Tang Wan raised her head: "I'll go up, aren't you afraid that your daughter-in-law will misunderstand?"

I was silent, and Tong Wangjun separated from me, I naturally didn't worry that she would misunderstand, but at this time, I didn't want to deliberately mention the divorce.

"We're just classmates, she's not that stingy. I said, avoiding the divorce and not talking about it.

I don't know why I don't want to mention divorce in front of Tang Wan, maybe I feel ashamed.

"Looks like you've found a nice wife, so congratulations. Tang Wan gave me the old sheet in her hand, "If it were me, I wouldn't be at ease that you were with another woman." ”

"That's why I married Tong Wangjun, not you. I laughed, thinking that the answer was humorous.

But I didn't want Tang Wan's face to turn cold all of a sudden, and she stared at me with resentment.

"What's wrong?" I panicked, "I'm just kidding." ”

"Can marriage be a joke? Is this how you face marriage?" Tang Wan rebuked me, "You are really a scumbag, I really feel sad for your daughter-in-law." ”

Tang Wan was furious.

She never scolds, and only when she is forced to do so, she will say the word scum.

In high school, I took advantage of the cover of the night to hold Tang Wan's hand, and even made a gesture to hug her, so she said these two words to me, and threw the bubble tea I bought for her directly into the trash.

It was also at that time that I felt that Tang Wan didn't like me, but just regarded me as a friend of the opposite sex.

"I'll stop you a taxi. "I didn't mention this topic again, at this time, I think Tang Wan didn't want to see me.

"I have hands and feet, I don't need you to stop me. Tang Wan turned around and left.

She didn't stop the car at the entrance of the community, but went back the way we had come.

I looked at her back and was a little worried, in such a night, if she was not accompanied by others, would something happen?

I was tempted to follow her and watch her get in the car, but eventually turned around and left.

At home, Chen Ke is still waiting for me to go back to cook.

"Dad, why are you only back now. Chen Kezheng was doing his homework alone, and when he heard the movement, he ran to me, "Wow, Dad, are you shopping for vegetables again?"

"Well, beef, green pepper beef. I put down Xiaole, "Take your sister to play for a while, I'll wash the dishes and chopsticks and cook for you." ”

"I've washed it. Chen Ke said, and then pulled Chen Le to the side to play.

When I arrived in the kitchen, looking at the neatly arranged dishes and chopsticks, Chen Ke was teaching Xiaole to count outside, and the guilt in my heart was irrepressibly diffused.

I ate and drank outside, but poor Chen Ke waited at home for so long.

When I swept the packed meal, my guilt grew even stronger, gathering in my chest, leaving me breathless.

A meal cost 1,000 yuan, enough to buy two cans of high-end imported milk powder for Xiaole, and two sets of good clothes for Chen Ke, if it was to buy vegetables, it would be enough for my father and daughter to pay for a month's meals.

My heart hurts.

The meal was warmed up and served.

"Ake, you eat first. "I'll take the dishes and chopsticks for Chen Ke.

"Good. Chen Ke nodded and ran to wash his hands, "Dad is so good, I specially bought beef for me to eat, and when my mother comes, I want to tell my mother." ”

I'm a little embarrassed.

"Xiaole, that's your sister's homework book, don't tear it up. Glancing at Chen Le grabbing the homework book, babbling and exerting force, I hurriedly ran over, picked up Chen Le, and snatched the homework book from her hand.

Chen Ke ran over with a bowl: "My homework book is broken, so I just finished my homework." ”

"It's okay, you eat first, I'll stick it to you later. I comforted Chen Ke.

Chen Ke muttered and sat down at the dining table, his eyes still reading through the homework book.

"Look, you did a good job, you tore your sister's homework book, and your hands are still moving?" I patted Chen Le's little hand and went out.

Chen Le's mouth deflated at once.

"Wow......" was just an instant, and Chen Le cried.

"Oh...... Oh......" I hurriedly hugged Chen Le in my arms and patted my back, "Don't cry, Xiaole, Dad scared you just now." Isn't it just a homework book, tear it up if you want, we're helping your sister reduce the burden, it's a good deed, right?"

Chen Le was still crying, and I knocked on the door of the woman next door while shaking my steps slightly.

"What's wrong?" the woman opened the door, glanced at me, and then saw Chen Le, "Why did you make her cry?"

"She tore up Ke's homework book, and I scared her a little, and it was like this. I smiled bitterly, "You haven't eaten yet, I've packed some food and come back, if you don't mind, come and eat together." ”

"Hold her for me, you are really, she is a child, she can't speak, what can she understand?" The woman glanced at me sideways, slapped her chin, and wanted to hug Chen Le.

"She doesn't necessarily want you. I said.

During the meal, Chen Le cried in Yu Lu's arms, and he refused to come down after leaning on me.

"Come, sister, hug me. The woman clapped her hands again and said to Xiao Le.

I smiled: "You are too good at pretending to be tender, aren't you, you are all people with children, why did you become a sister?"

The woman gave me a blank look: "Who told you that I have a child?"

This woman has been seen by me, and I still don't admit it, could it be that it is really a second-generation woman raised outside, and she doesn't want to be known?

Thinking of this, I consciously didn't say anything more.

Chen Le, who was in his arms, twisted his head, glanced at the woman, and then leaned towards her.

This is what it means to be held by a woman.

I was surprised, and glanced at the woman's breasts wrapped in a thin knitted sweater, could it be that Xiaole smelled the milky fragrance, so she was willing to ask the woman to hug it?
