In the bamboo forest hot spring, Qiao Enxi slowly talked about her mother. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
Tong Jianjun doesn't know much about Qiao Enxi's mother. He also asked the bureau seat, but the bureau only told Tong Jianjun that her name was He Yuxi, who used to work in the Dimensional Stability Bureau and disappeared in a dimensional invasion accident. The rest, the bureau seat didn't mention much, looking at his expression, it seemed to be very concerned about that incident.
The hot spring inn was a place where Joe and her mother frequented, at least when her mother was still around. The owner, Grandma Suko, is of mixed Chinese and Japanese descent, and her father is Japanese.
During the Japanese invasion, Suko's father used his identity to protect many villagers, but he did not receive much respect. After the death of her parents, Suko took over the hot spring inn and has been running it ever since.
Speaking of which, Suzi's grandmother is still the matchmaker of Qiao Enxi's parents, and when the two didn't know each other, they came to this mixed bathing hot spring hotel together, and then some happy things happened, and then they were together.
This hot spring inn has become a place of love. After having Qiao Enxi, her mother often took her here to soak in the hot springs.
"That night was my birthday, and my mother and I also came here to soak in the hot springs as in previous years, but on the way, we ......" Qiao Enxi's voice became smaller and smaller, "I kept thinking that if it weren't for my habit, my mother wouldn't have taken me to the hot springs on my birthday, and that thing wouldn't have happened......"
Tong Jianjun subconsciously reached out and wanted to pat Qiao Enxi's back to comfort her, but where the tentacles were touched, there was a soft and delicate skin. Someone's hand froze directly, and he remembered that Qiao Enxi should not be wearing anything now.
didn't dare to open his eyes and look over there, Tong Jianjun withdrew his hand in embarrassment.
"Ha, the teacher's unexpected innocence. Qiao Enxi laughed, "I'm wrapped in a bath towel, you just happened to touch the place that wasn't wrapped." β
"I see. Tong Jianjun breathed a sigh of relief, opened his eyes, and "sneeredββββββββββββββ"
The cluster of dashes above is not that someone wanted to make up the number of words to type so much, but to vividly show the situation of Tong someone gushing out of some red liquid at that time.
"I'm very sorry!" Tong Jianjun said apologetically to Mrs. Suzi with two large paper rolls stuck in his nostrils.
"It's okay. The old lady Suzi was very open-minded, "The hot spring here in my house is a living spring, and after a while, the water quality will be restored to the same state." It's your nose, doesn't it really matter?"
Tong Jianjun sneered: "It really doesn't matter, you also know that our young people are more vigorous, and it is more beneficial to health to flow a little." β
Old lady Suko glanced at the hot spring that had been dyed red, and I am afraid that this is not a little.
"Xi-chan, I really like you. "Coldly, the old lady Suzi said.
"Ahem!" Tong Jianjun almost squirted out the two paper rolls that blocked his nose.
"If you hadn't met someone you liked, Xi-chan wouldn't have brought you here. Although my side is a hot spring for men and women, in the past, it was reserved for Xi sauce and rain sauce, and no one else was allowed to come in. Old lady Suzi recalled.
"In the past, I often heard Woo-chan teaching Hee-chan that except for her husband, her body should never be seen by other men, even when she went swimming or bathed in hot springs. The old lady sighed with emotion, "Xi-chan, I treat you as her husband." β
"You're laughing. Tong Jianjun tightened the paper roll in his nostrils, "I am ten years old apart from Qiao Enxi, and I am still her teacher, so there is no such possibility." β
The old lady shook her head: "How is it possible? My husband is more than ten years older than me, and we are still together." But he's been ahead for a few years, and I'm going to be here for a few more years. β
snapped, Tong Jianjun hit his head on the pillar on the side: "We are teachers and students, some things can't be written, they will be killed!"
"Don't worry, the editor didn't bother to pay attention to you just because of the book's subscription results. The old lady's expression suddenly became mysterious.
"What?"
"Did I say anything?" the old lady returned to normal.
"Well, maybe I'm hallucinating. Tong Jianjun took a deep breath, "Actually, I have someone I like." β
The old lady didn't say anything more, just smiled mysteriously and turned to leave.
Behind the door, Qiao Enxi walked out, she had already changed her clothes, and she didn't know when she was already standing behind the door.
Without waiting for Tong Jianjun to speak, Qiao Enxi said first: "I just arrived, I don't know what you said to Grandma Suzi." β
But looking at her expression, it is clear that she does not know anything.
"Let's go back. Tong Jianjun sighed.
Seeing the two departing, the old lady smiled and closed the door and came to her room.
"The two people I see today feel a lot like when we were back then. Mrs. Suzi gently stroked a black-and-white photograph of an old man full of bookish atmosphere, "Do you think so too, sir?"
The old man in the black-and-white photo maintains an unchanging smile, as if agreeing with something.
β¦β¦
"Teacher, can you take me somewhere?" On the way back, Qiao Enxi suddenly asked.
Tong Jianjun stopped: "Where are you going?"
"I want to go to my mother's. Qiao Enxi said calmly.
Tong Jianjun was shocked in his heart, how could he say this as if he wanted to commit suicide: "Xiao Qiao, don't think about it!"
"How could I not think about it?" Jon sneered, "I haven't become the teacher's bride yet, and no one can stop me until I accomplish this goal." β
Taking a deep breath, Qiao Enxi said: "When my mother and I went back that day, the place where the accident happened was not far from here, and it was only about ten minutes by car. Teacher, can you come with me?"
Knowing that Qiao Enxi didn't want to commit suicide, Tong Jianjun breathed a sigh of relief and nodded: "Of course you can, but it's so late now, why do you suddenly want to go there?"
Qiao Enxi stared at Tong Jianjun's face and said, "I can't remember how the accident happened that day. The doctor said it was selective amnesia, but I didn't think so. It felt like I was forced to erase, not like I didn't want to remember. β
"But in my feelings, it seems that there is a scene where my mother is fighting to protect me. I always felt that Teacher Tong and Mom seemed to be the same kind of people, and if Teacher Tong went there, he should be able to find something. β
"In that case, let's go. Tong Jianjun nodded and stepped forward to pick up Qiao Enxi.
"What, how suddenly!" Xiao Qiao was taken aback by Tong Jianjun's actions.
"Close your eyes. β
Is this and this...... Qiao Enxi's little face flushed, and he closed his eyes shyly.
