Chapter 263
As soon as she returned to the small courtyard, Gu Xiyan put on her hat and gloves, put on an apron, and began to clean up. Everything was still so familiar and intimate, except for the dust that had accumulated over the years, which was exactly the same as when she left.
Gu Mengmeng followed Gu Xiyan's example, wrapped the pillow around her waist, tied it to her head, stood on the bed and jumped, having a lot of fun.
On the phone with Jiang Xinran, Jiang Xinran was busy with a project and had no time during the day, so he made an appointment to see him at Tianxiang Kitchen at night!
Seeing that there was still time, Gu Xiyan picked up Mengmeng and came to the bathroom, the mother and son took a bath, Mengmeng liked to play with soap bubbles the most, and kept "giggling" and laughing in the bathtub......
Gu Xiyan has a lot of things in his head, he has to report to the department first tomorrow, and then contact the affiliated kindergarten, Ouyang Yichen's international student program has been implemented for more than two years, and this time she helped him bring the latest plan to the school......
As early as two years ago, Ouyang Yichen founded the Study Abroad Center, at first it was just the docking of B University and Sydney A University, and slowly, it also developed to other universities in Sydney.
Gu Xiyan felt a lot of pressure, where would she expand what market, she would follow Ouyang Yichen's ass in Sydney, and just be a good comrade who implemented it seriously, but in the face of Ouyang Yichen's entrustment, she was duty-bound.
Ouyang Yichen didn't seem to allow her to refuse, and turned out her words a few years ago, she had to give him "be a cow and a horse", even if she hugged the grass ring, she had to repay him for his kindness in the past few years, not to mention that she didn't try to do anything?
"Gu Xiyan, I'm going to tie the pills on my head today......" Gu Mengmeng shook the hair that had reached her shoulders, and the water stains flew all of a sudden.
Gu Xiyan fixed her with one hand, took a hair dryer in the other, and blew at Gu Mengmeng's head.
"You blow all your hair into my eyes," Gu Mengmeng protested by pulling her hair with her hand, "Ouyang won't blow your hair into my eyes." ”
"Okay, then don't move, just hold on for two minutes. Gu Xiyan said and took the hair dryer away a little, she admitted that Ouyang Yichen's service attitude was indeed better than herself.
"You can also tie a ball on the head, so that others will know that you are my mother at a glance. Gu Mengmeng was lying on the sink, her little fingers had continued to stretch down from the drain of the bathtub, she seemed to like holes very much, and she wanted to explore them when she saw a hole.
"Gu Mengmeng......" Gu Xiyan took her hand out, since she was a child, she followed Angel to call her by her name, she was used to it, "Others can know that I am your mother when they look at their faces." ”
"Oh, okay......" Gu Mengmeng looked back at Gu Xiyan's eyes to stop her, and a hot wind blew on her face, "Oh my God, I seem to be starting to miss Ouyang, I have to tell him what happened to me......"
The hair dryer was still on, Gu Mengmeng had already run away, picked up Gu Xiyan's mobile phone, and quickly pressed a number, which was the contact information Ouyang Yichen set for her, saying that she could hear his voice if she pressed it.
Listening to Gu Mengmeng chattering on the phone, even talking and gesturing, her expression and demeanor were very exaggerated, But just two days after she came back, she seemed to have been full of grievances, Gu Xiyan knew that she was not very adaptable, she was nostalgic for everything in Sydney, in her little head, that was her home......
She probably hoped that Ouyang Yichen would be able to descend from the sky and rescue her from this overcrowded place, Gu Xiyan couldn't help laughing.
Gu Mengmeng finally put down her phone, because Ouyang Yichen told her that the phone bill was very expensive, she used all her patience to watch Gu Xiyan tie her ball head, change her clothes, and when Gu Xiyan went to look for shoes, she secretly ran over, opened Gu Xiyan's bag, took out a lipstick, and secretly put some on her lips.
Ouyang Yichen has always called her a little beauty, but she still thinks that she needs to put some lipstick on her mouth to have the taste of beauty. Gu Xiyan turned around and asked her to go, she called a taxi with Gu Xiyan and went straight to Tianxiang's kitchen.
Along the way, Gu Xiyan explained to her countless times about the Internet, saying that they had already applied for the opening, and it might take some time, Gu Mengmeng asked again and again when it was, Gu Xiyan told her that because we are not the only ones who need to open it, there are other people who also need it, so it depends on how many people need it to know the specific time, and before that, just wait patiently......
I only know that those who wait are always losers, and there must be a "stop loss point" in life, and there will also be a "stop profit point" in the same way, Gu Xiyan feels that this is her experience in the past few years, and it seems that happiness will come easier.
Gu Mengmeng asked back and forth between various "needs", and even the driver laughed, so she "talked" with the driver again. From this point of view, Gu Mengmeng is not very like her, she will be silent many times, seemingly cold, and not easy to approach......
Finally arrived at Tianxiang Kitchen, the area has more than doubled, and it has also been redecorated, which looks familiar and strange.
Jiang Xinran waved her hand down from a window on the second floor, shouted her name loudly, and raised her head, as if nothing had changed!
In contrast, the fat girl seems a little shy and restrained, she seems to have lost a lot of weight than when she was a child, and now it is no longer worthy of the name to be called "fat girl", Jiang Xinran said that she is going to school soon, and her big name is "Xiao Yao".
As soon as Gu Xiyan heard it, she knew that it was Jiang Xinran's name, and soon Xiao Yao was infected by Meng Meng's enthusiasm, and the two children had a good time, and the two of them sighed for a while, "Where has the time gone".
"Why did you come back alone this time?" Jiang Xinran couldn't figure out why Gu Xiyan was the only one who was back to work at B University, and he was still alone.
"Well, a person. Gu Xiyan knew that not only Jiang Xinran, but even the people in the school thought that she was married to Ouyang Yichen and left the country, not to mention that when she came back, she still lived in Ouyang Yichen's house.
"Even the separation of the two places is so tall and ......" Jiang Xinran took a sip of drink, the doctor said that she should pay attention to her diet, eat less desserts and snacks, and control her weight, otherwise there will soon be an extra piece of running "pork belly" on the road, and she swore that Xiao Mingyu promised that she would never take that piece of "pork belly".
"Why are you so delicate now?When did you start to be a lady?" Gu Xiyan looked at Jiang Xinran's appearance of carefully smashing the juice, "Don't tell me, the meat that fell from your body was all buckled out of your mouth......"
"You can also see that I have lost weight, don't you?" Jiang Xinran heard Gu Xiyan's words, and excitedly grabbed Gu Xiyan's arm, "You don't know, my current body size can be as big as two Xiao Mingyu, I'm really afraid that if I turn over at night, he will disappear directly!"
"Why?" Gu Xiyan looked puzzled.
"I'm holding it down and I can't see it!" Jiang Xinran said happily and raised his hand to call the waiter, 5 years of overseas life, Gu Xiyan has not changed much, she is still not very humorous, and the hot joke has been turned into a cold joke by her.
Jiang Xinran ordered the food, Gu Xiyan made up the scene of Xiao Mingyu being pressed down on the bed by Jiang Xinran, covered his mouth and laughed wildly......
"With your reaction, how did you survive in Sydney in the past 5 years?" Jiang Xinran turned his head and looked at Gu Xiyan and shook his head helplessly.
"Are you disgusting Gu Xiyan?" Gu Mengmeng, who was playing with Xiao Yao, suddenly interjected.
"Oh, I don't dislike her," Jiang Xinran looked at Mengmeng with a "I just ask" expression, leaned on the table, and whispered: "She just dislikes you, she doesn't even call her mother." ”
Gu Xiyan looked accustomed to it, "Not only does she 'dislike' me, but they all 'dislike' me." She has long been used to it, Ouyang Yichen, Angel and Meng Siyi took turns complaining about the cookies and hot pot she made, and made fun of her often unable to find her direction when driving......
"Really?" Jiang Xinran looked Gu Xiyan up and down, can the days abroad be more aggrieved than the days at home?
"I'm kidding you," Gu Xiyan looked at Jiang Xinran's eyes that he believed to be true, alas, he really couldn't joke, others would think it was true, "They are all very good to me." ”
Jiang Xinran's gaze stayed on Gu Xiyan's face for a while, as if she was really identifying the "authenticity", she was not interested in asking who "they" were, as long as Gu Xiyan thought it was good, it would be good!
It should be that there are more guests, so Gu Xiyan feels that the food has not come up for a long time, listening to Jiang Xinran gushing endlessly about her various ups and downs in the mall, from the small planner at the bottom to the current vice president, just by staying by Ling Zhanchi's side for 10 years, this person is definitely not simple.
In fact, she saw his image at the airport, although she couldn't hear the sound, although she was in a hurry to find Meng Meng, just a quick glance, but she still saw him on the big screen, with a demeanor full of maturity and ability......
Gu Xiyan watched the waiter put the plate of frosted cashew nuts on the dining table, the cashew nuts were wrapped in syrup, amber color, which made people salivate, and Ling Zhanchi's words suddenly sounded in her ears, "You still have a cold, this frosted cashew nuts are still forgotten, it is easy to cough ......after eating it", she was sick in the school dormitory at that time!
When she was far away in Sydney, when she became a person again in many silent and lonely nights, her thoughts would drift far away like a thread, she would keep comforting herself, there are many people in this world like her, who were tormented by thoughts in the same night, the difference is that others may be tortured for a while, but she will be tortured for a lifetime......
Jiang Xinran looked at Gu Xiyan, who suddenly burst into tears, the gushing just now disappeared without a trace, and sighed, Gu Xiyan's sudden sadness was only understood by her, "He is now a rising star, a man of the hour, and he has not come to City B often in the past two years, so he may be too busy......"
Gu Xiyan's tears ran down her cheeks, maybe returning to China was not a wise choice, in the previous 5 years, she could curl up in a corner of the world like an ostrich, not looking, not listening, not thinking, but now it is just a plate of cashew nuts that can make her look like this, she really overestimated the time!
Didn't he just hope that he could achieve what he has today? It is a fortunate thing that his wish has been fulfilled, after all, not every sacrifice can be exchanged for the fulfillment of his wish......
Jiang Xinran stretched out his hand and wiped away Gu Xiyan's tears, Ling Zhanchi has not married Liu Su until now, is he still thinking about Gu Xiyan?
When a person lives long enough, he will understand that in this life, we may love more than one person, but we can only be the best for him, and since that person, it is impossible to be so hopelessly good to another person.
