Chapter 384: Caught off guard
Chen Songping and Wang Cailian stayed until June and left. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The main reason is that Chen Songping wants to go back, his son is very busy with work, and now there is no little grandchild to bring, their old couple does not have to do anything except cook a meal, but when they are off on the weekend, they also want their son to take them around, if they don't go around, the child can't get by, and there is usually no hometown person to talk to, and I feel that my parents are suffocated. Or go back to your own home, live comfortably in your hometown, and your children can work hard.
Chen Chi stayed several times, Chen Songping was the one who insisted on making up his mind, and said to Wang Cailian, who was reluctant to give up: "In the future, when they have children, we will come over to help, and now we have seen and lived, it's okay." There has been no one at home who is bad, so let Chen Chi and Shuangshuang come back to see it during the holidays. ”
On the night Xu Shuangchuan sent his in-laws away, Chen Chi sat on the sofa in the living room, staring at the TV, and when he was inserting advertisements, he suddenly picked up Xu Shuangchuan and sighed lightly: "Have you noticed that the home is a lot more deserted?" ”
Xu Shuang lost weight and picked up the work of buying vegetables and cooking, she was very attentive, although her in-laws were gone, but there was no huge reduction in the number of meals on the dinner table, the family used to have four dishes and one soup, and now she guaranteed Chen Chi three dishes and one soup, of course, the more cumbersome dishes, she couldn't do it, so she was tricky, and she must endure choking every time she cooked, and put a spoonful of the bottle of oil and spicy seeds that her in-laws boiled before leaving the right dish, so that she could put a spoonful of it in the right dish, so it was a thought for Chen Chi.
On Saturday, Chen Chi drove her to class early in the morning, and the two of them resumed the habit of returning to their parents' house for dinner on weekends. Xuan Chunhua was so happy that when she met Mrs. Li when she was shopping for vegetables, she complained from afar: "These two people are coming to eat again, it's really annoying." It seems that the vegetable market sells those few things every day, and it can't pick out any flowers. I had to buy some meat and make it for them, my Xiao Chen, don't say it, in fact, it's the most picky, the meat should be fat and thin, pure lean meat doesn't like to eat, my family frost, I used to eat fatty meat, but now I don't want to look at the fatty meat, you say these two people ......" Xuan Chunhua was beaming, and was full of energy carrying a big cloth bag with vegetables, "As soon as they came back, it was really annoying." Xu Manting didn't do anything, he went fishing with his son-in-law, and when he came back, he ate ready-made, you said he was angry. ”
Don't mention Mrs. Li's envy index.
Chen Chi sent his wife to the training point, came back to pick up his father-in-law, and went to the suburbs to find a small river ditch, and Weng and his son-in-law each set a small pony and a stool, and sat under the parasol until dusk, sometimes they could catch one or two white water strips. Xuanchunhua nagged, cut and boiled, mixed in the leftovers and fed to the wild cats in the community.
The landlord's notice to let them move came unexpectedly.
Chen Chi came home from work at night, took off his leather shoes when he entered the door, walked into the bathroom barefoot, and said loudly: "Shuangshuang, let's eat quickly, and we will go to the front to see the house later." ”
Xu Shuangchuan was setting the dishes and chopsticks, and when he heard the words, he quickly folded to the door of the bathroom and asked, "What house are you looking at?" ”
"The landlord called me today, his child is getting married, he wants to sell this house, and someone may want to come to see the house after it is listed in two days." Chen Chi washed his face with water in a hurry, and when he looked up, he saw Xu Shuang standing by the door frame from the mirror, with a wooden expression, he couldn't help laughing, and said to the mirror, "The landlord said that no matter how fast the buying and selling process is, it will take a month or two, and it will be no problem for us to live for another month." Today I called the previous rental agent, they happened to have a listing on hand, not far away, in a neighborhood in front of me, and made an appointment to see the property at 7 pm. ”
Xu Shuangchuan stared at Chen Chi and washed his face, and after a while: "Oh." She turned back and served the meal silently.
"Wow, it's Kung Pao Chicken today, it's so fragrant." Chen Chi pulled out a chair and sat down, breathed a sigh of relief, raised his chopsticks and tasted, "Delicious, the side dishes you bought in the supermarket?" ”
"No, I made it myself." Xu Shuang took a bite of food, she would have introduced this table of dishes to Chen Chi with great interest, and then flaunted how she thought about cooking, but now she suddenly didn't bother to say anything.
The heart is a little unable to move.
There is an old couple living in that house, and the eldest sister of the intermediary hurriedly introduced them when she got on the elevator, and the old couple's family was demolished, and the new house had not yet been obtained, and they rented a house during the transition period, but they wanted to change it when the contract expired, and they would not renew the lease, which was just right to vacate them.
"Maybe it's too expensive, the elderly are all this kind of mentality, and if they can save it, they will save it. In fact, the decoration there is OK, only seven or eight years, the two rooms are upright, now this type of room decoration is generally at this price, the landlord is not a lion big mouth, we do the agency knows best. ”
This should be regarded as psychological foreshadowing, Xu Shuangchuan politely pulled the corners of his mouth, smiled back, and did not respond.
It's all Chen Chi maneuvering: "Then how long will his family's contract end?" ”
"A month," the agent said with a smile, "they moved out, you moved in, the time was just right." ”
The old couple was very polite, welcomed the three of them in, and asked them if they wanted water.
"No, no, let's take a look and go." The eldest sister of the intermediary repeatedly excused herself, and asked kindly, "Auntie, uncle, let's take a look in the room." ”
"Come on." The old woman was not very enthusiastic, but she still nodded gently, and took the lead to the door of the master bedroom, she turned on the light, and did not go in, the eldest sister of the intermediary had a cool temperament, and stepped in, Chen Chi gave Xu Shuangchuan a place, Xu Shuangchuan shook his head and stayed by the door.
"That's what the room looks like." The eldest sister of the intermediary looked around, turned back to Xu Shuangchuan and Chen Chi and said, "It's pretty good." ”
Xu Shuangchuan smiled slightly, and glanced inward, the old man may have been folding clothes before, a few undershirts and pajamas piled up on the mat, and even the flat-legged underwear worn by the old man.
She quickly withdrew her gaze and retreated into the living room in amusement.
"Auntie, let's take a look at the kitchen and bathroom." The eldest sister of the intermediary came out.
The kitchen is half-new, the countertop is clean, and there is a bowl of edamame wrapped in plastic wrap and placed by the stove. The bathroom is very characteristic of the elderly, with several plastic basins and some small towels on the edges.
The whole process of viewing the house only lasted three or four minutes, except for the old woman who pointed out the place to them, the old man did not say a word, wearing a round-necked undershirt and boxer pants, and sat at the dining table and shook a folding fan.
"How?" They said goodbye, and as soon as the old grandmother closed the door behind them, the intermediary sister asked excitedly.
Chen Chi glanced at Xu Shuangchuan and replied, "Let's go back and discuss it again, it's best to look at two more sets and compare them with each other." ”
"Yes, this one." The eldest sister of the agent didn't think it was upset, and immediately recommended, "I still have two, I'll call the landlord tomorrow to make an appointment, and you'll all be free after work, right?" If I could do it, I would still give you an appointment for the evening. ”
After separating from the eldest sister of the intermediary downstairs, Chen Chi pulled Xu Shuangjiang and walked back, he turned his head sideways and asked, "Shuangshuang, you don't make a sound when you look at the house, don't you like it?" Actually, I think it's okay. ”
Xu Shuang lowered his face, the light of the street lamp was faint, and Chen Chi's hearty smile was still reflected.
"Tired?"
"Huh?" Chen Chi couldn't catch up with Xu Shuang's thoughts.
"I have to look at the house after work." Xu Shuang looked at Chen Chi.
"I'm not tired," Chen Chi laughed disappreciatively, "It's been less than ten minutes since I came over, what's so tired." Hey, tell me, why don't you like this house? ”
Xu Shuangchuan pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled: "There's no dislike, you can decide." She hugged Chen Chi's arm, rested her head on his shoulder, and wrapped Chen Chi around like a koala.
Chen Chi chuckled lowly, glanced at the passerby, dragged her two steps, and whispered: "Just now an old lady glanced at the two of us three times, do you know why?" ”
Xu Shuang didn't take the stubble.
"It's twenty-nine today." Chen Chi suppressed his laughter, but he still leaked three or two sounds, low and thick, it was really good, "The old lady is thinking, you are so warm......"
He deliberately didn't say anything more.
"I won't let go." Xu Shuang tightened his arms with force, and even used his strength to make a sound.
"Okay, good, don't let go, I'm not afraid of the heat." Chen Chi happily teased and continued to get down to business, "Then we can watch two more sets and watch two more sets, if there is nothing better than this, we want to be here." ”
Xu Shuangchuan stared at the dark cement floor, hesitated for a moment and said, "Chi, we can live at home, now we have a car." If you are tired from driving to work, you still take the subway, and I will take you to the subway station in the morning and evening. ”
"You?" Chen Chi smiled, he didn't dare to trust Xu Shuang's driving skills, "I'm afraid of you, cough cough, tired." Let's change places in this area, so it doesn't take much time to commute, and my parents are more relaxed. ”
Xu Shuangchuan was silent anymore.
