At the end of March, the last cold wave passed.

Chen Chi went home, threw off his coat, rolled up his sleeves, cooked half a pot of water, and glanced at the time, the three-episode TV series that his mother-in-law must watch every night was about to start, he turned down the heat, put the roll aside first, and dialed the phone.

"Hello?"

Chen Chi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it was the voice of his mother-in-law. He is now a bit of the opposite when his hairy foot son-in-law came to the door, when he thought that his father-in-law was easy to talk to, and he especially coaxed his mother-in-law. Now he goes to the fishing tackle shop every week to see the old couple of the Yue family, to see if there is any strength to lift the work can help, the old man basically does not talk to him, the mother-in-law is fierce, but there are still two sentences, he changed to the old man.

However, if he raises a daughter in the future, whoever divorces his daughter will be troubled. Understandable, understandable.

"Mom, have you eaten the meal?"

"I've eaten it. "Xuan Chunhua doesn't have a good airway.

This treatment is already much better than before, and the mother-in-law was not even allowed to call her mother before, but now she probably doesn't bother to talk about him.

"Mom, Qingming is coming, are you and Dad going to visit the graves of your grandparents this weekend, or will you go next weekend? ”

"No, I don't. That's it, hanging. Xuan Chunhua put down the phone, and didn't say directly after all, you are not our family, and you can't go to the ancestral cemetery.

She clicked on her slippers, returned to the sofa and sat down facing the TV, the advertisement was in a hurry, she didn't look at it, and glanced at Xu Manting on the side: "Chen Chi's phone call, want to send us to the cemetery......" She felt that this was wrong, and took a breath, as if she had added a note in anger, "Sweep the grave." ”

Xu Manting drank tea and blew without saying a word.

Xuan Chunhua looked at her husband's breath and slipped along the teacup, and couldn't wait to ask, "What do you think?"

"It's not your own family, what are you walking around on the grave during the Qingming Festival?"

"That is, if he goes, the ancestor won't blame him?" Xuan Chunhua tugged at the corners of her mouth, "When Shuangshuang was a child, your father was so precious that he still had to hug him if he couldn't hold it." ”

Xu Manting didn't talk much, he didn't answer, Xuan Chunhua frowned and thought for a while, and then asked, "What do you think?"

The old husband and wife have a tacit understanding, and the questions are exactly the same, but Xu Manting knows what Xuan Chunhua is asking this time. "Look at what?" he snorted.

"Your father and daughter are the same, and they all look like stuffy gourds. Xuan Chunhua said dissatisfied, "Then do I want to call the introducer back?"

"Let's figure it out one by one. ”

Chen Chi snorted and put down the noodles, and opened his limited bottle of oil, salt, sauce and vinegar in front of the soup bowl, sprinkled a little of everything into the bowl, and stirred the noodle soup in a while. I opened another pack of ham slices, put them in a bowl, and when I looked back, the noodles were almost ready, so I quickly turned off the heat and picked up the noodles from the pot.

This dinner is fine.

He buried his head in eating a chopstick, picked up his mobile phone and looked at it, not wanting to stop the chopsticks without two eyes.

Lu Qing asked for a video call with him.

In the past two days, the news that he is leaving has spread in the company.

Chen Chi continued to eat, snoring and eating a bowl of noodles, Lu Qing was still persistently asking for a call, he thought about it, put aside the dishes for the time being, and agreed to the request.

"Brother Chen. Lu Qing shouted happily.

"Hello, what's the matter at this late hour?"

"I heard from my colleagues in the company......" Lu Qing frowned slightly, and a trace of panic and sorrow appeared on her delicate face, and even her voice became melancholy, "Said you were leaving, right?"

"It's hard to say now, and personnel changes at work should be subject to the announcement of the personnel department. ”

Lu Qing was in the personnel department, and she only heard a little rumor, but there was no point in the wind, she was sure that it was true, and when she heard Chen Chi's words like diplomatic rhetoric, she bit her lip lightly.

"Brother Chen, I was introduced to the company by you, and when I heard such news, whether it was true or not, I panicked. She pursed her lips and smiled, her brow worried about it.

"Everybody's work performance is made by themselves. Even if it is an apprentice, it is the master who leads the door, and the practice is in the individual, not to mention that our company has a formal personnel system. ”

Lu Qing's eyes were rolling, and he stared at Chen Chi with a sigh of desire. At the end of March, it was still warm and cool, and at a temperature inside and outside the house, she only wore a tight leggings with a low round neckline and a yellow tight base sweater, and a brown braided bone pendant necklace, which crossed her collarbone and hung down a little above her chest.

"Brother Chen," she pursed her lips, her lips became more and more rosy, she glanced at Chen Chi, and said softly with shyness and timidity, "Tomorrow Saturday, I want to go to the bookstore to pick up an original English version of the personnel management book, can you help me go to the staff officer?"

"I'm sorry, I'm going to accompany my mother-in-law to the grave to worship my ancestors. Chen Chi said solemnly.

"You're not...... Are you divorced?" Lu Qing was so stupid that her mouth opened wide, and she smiled for a while, "I heard Fang Lian mention it." ”

Chen Chi glanced at the past quietly, and didn't say anything, but it looked like it was inconvenient to talk about private matters.

"Brother Chen, I'm ......" Lu Qing's face was embarrassed, he hesitated slightly, his dimples rippled, and he took a breath, as if he was about to speak.

"Daisy, my wife told me to wash the dishes, so let's not talk about it, you can find someone else to counsel. ”

Chen Chi cut off the call, put the mobile phone aside, looked at the residual soup in the noodle bowl, sat for a while, couldn't help but pick up the mobile phone again, and dialed Xu Shuang's phone, of course, it couldn't get through. He didn't care, and sent a message: "Did you tell me to wash the dishes?"

In summer, all kinds of flowers bloom all over the place, and when Xu Shuang returns, the flowering period of the magnolia tree is missed, and the leaves of the magnolia tree are already wide and large, vigorous, soaked with enough rain on the typhoon day, and it looks full of green. Between the leaves, there are already fruit leaves, like twisted fat pods.

Chen Chi already knew the reason why she went to teach, and also knew that she met a pregnant couple when she was hanging a drip in the hospital.

He asked her if she had ever felt better after teaching.

At that time, Xu Shuangchuan was in his bachelor apartment, sitting cross-legged on the windowsill of the large bay window, bowing his head and drinking the mung bean porridge he had boiled in the morning to relieve the heat.

"Nope. She put down the bowl and looked sideways at the white clouds outside the window.

"Frost, everyone is first and foremost responsible for their own actions. They are responsible for their negligence," Chen Chi sat cross-legged across from her and tapped his chest, "just like me, I am responsible for my mishandling, and I have never had a complete home. ”

Xu Shuangchuan smiled and looked up at the sky, she was not uneasy.

"I thought, how could I be like that. She said leisurely, "Although I know that it is not my own business, I will have regrets in my heart, and my own affairs are also messy, so I want to find a place to stop and be quiet, if I can do something more, it would be better." ”

"But in fact, doing other things does not make regrets a little lighter, and it is always one yard to one yard. ”

"And, it's not at all what I thought, stop in one place to summarize the past and look forward to the future," Xu Shuangchuan smiled, "It's just busy, I'm worried about why they don't listen to me, I am anxious if they don't come to class, what should I do if there are few people in the class, I am annoyed when it rains on the weekend, I am especially afraid that the road to the town will be broken, and the fourth grandfather habitually sells it to me as soon as he saves eggs, and I am embarrassed not to see him lifting the basket from the boat later." I followed Aunt Guo to learn to use stove ashes to simmer sweet potatoes, simmer potatoes, and simmer taro. ”

She inhaled deeply and exhaled again: "It's just life," she thought for a moment and concluded, "no improvement." ”

Chen Chi nodded with a smile.

"I'm leaving," Xu Shuangchuan put the bowl down, "Mom told me to go home." ”
