Chapter 492: If There Is a Next Life
Xu Shuang's class on Saturday ended at four o'clock in the afternoon, and she made a phone call: "Dad, is Chen Chi here?"
"No, you ask him, when will it arrive? Oh, by the way, today your mother said to make a small hot pot, the hot sauce boiled at home is gone, and you go to the supermarket to buy a bottle of hot sauce when you come back. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Xu Shuangchuan didn't understand, this hot sauce was bought for Chen Chi to make dipping sauce, she stopped on the sidewalk with her eyes closed: "Dad, he's busy, it's still a question of whether he can eat or not, don't worry about it." I have someone invited to eat, and I don't go home to eat. You and your mother can do whatever you want, don't get tired. ”
"Ah...... What time will you be back?"
"Eight or nine. ”
Xu Shuangchuan put away her phone and slowly paced on the sidewalk, watching it get dark, waiting for the twilight to fill her body.
She felt that she was a very cowardly and very stupid person, and she didn't know what to do.
Chen Chi said that the company had something to deal with, she used to believe it, but now she won't ask in detail, but she found a break between classes and dialed his office landline.
This kind of behavior is meaningless, but she seems to have obsessive-compulsive disorder, and she has to make a phone call and hear the long tone of no one answering the beep on the other end before she is willing to let go of her mobile phone.
When Xu Shuang is uncomfortable, he doesn't care much, and he goes wherever he goes. She walked into the store, bought a dress for her parents and parents, and refused the enthusiastic promotion of the eldest sister of the shopping guide, sister, can you buy another one for yourself, for your boyfriend or husband?
No need. She carried two large bags, walked out of the store, and walked around without a clue, following a few old men and grandmothers who walked after dinner, to the side gate of a middle school.
When she saw them enter, the doorman did not stop them, guessing that the school would open its playground to the surrounding residents on weekend evenings, so she also went in.
In the dim playground, there were people longing, only she looked the strangest, carrying two conspicuous large white paper bags, walking in circles and circles.
Xu Shuangchuan thought that she could take advantage of this opportunity to think about her marriage and life, at least think about her plan of action, if she should have a plan of action. But in reality, she didn't think about anything, she just walked mechanically, so much so that her calves were sore, from the soles of her feet, to her heels, to her calves. However, all kinds of tangled emotions in the brain settle down properly and automatically in the gradually heated breath.
This turns into a real late workout.
"Dad, did Shuangshuang say who to eat with?" Chen Chi swallowed casually.
"I didn't say it. ”
"The soup is coming. Xuan Chunhua brought the hot hoof flower soup to the table and answered, "Your dad is like this, he won't be clear on the phone, so is Shuangshuang, the father and daughter are exactly the same, no matter what, Xiao Chen, eat it while it's hot." She's an adult, and the streets are full of people on Saturday night, so it doesn't matter, she says she'll be back at eight or nine. You eat yours. ”
Xuan Chunhua sat down at the table, pointed at the enoki mushroom and said: "Originally, it was cold, we made a small hot pot at home, and then your father said that the frost will not be eaten, and you may not come back when, the small hot pot will not be made, this enoki mushroom will be fried, heated for the second time, it must be old, you eat and see, tomorrow my mother will buy some fresh vegetables to make a small hot pot." ”
"Mom, it's delicious. ”
Xuan Chunhua was comfortable when she heard it, her son-in-law is easy-going, as long as it is a dish made by her mother-in-law, she never picks or picks up, and she eats whatever she wants.
"Is there enough food? Mom will scramble another egg?"
"Enough, a lot, I can't eat all of them. Chen Chi replied with a smile, Xu Shuangchuan's mobile phone couldn't get through, so he could only eat first.
Xu Shuang walked and walked until the doorman locked the door, she was exhausted, found a nearby restaurant, put two clothes bags on the stool opposite, occupied a small table by herself, and ordered a small mutton hot pot.
Although it is rare to eat alone, it is almost eight o'clock at this time, and the guests in the store have all eaten, and there are not many people left, perhaps thinking that the people who eat at the same table with her have just walked away for the time being, but no one has come to look at her strangely.
Xu Shuangchuan ate alone, didn't raise his eyebrows much, and ate intently.
At half past nine, she went home. The key was inserted into the keyhole and the door opened.
"Frost, you're back. Chen Chi stood inside the door, glanced her up and down, took the two bags, and asked, "Why did your phone turn off?"
"It's out of power. Xu Shuangchuan looked at Chen Chi, and quickly tilted his head to look at Xuan Chunhua who walked behind him, "Mom, I bought clothes for you and Dad." ”
"Oh, what are you buying? Your father and I have too many clothes to wear, and I don't necessarily like your eyes. ”
Chen Chi hurriedly handed the bag to his mother-in-law.
"Manting, look at your daughter," Xuan Chunhua complained while smiling, "Come and try it." ”
The mother-in-law and the father-in-law were happily looking at the clothes in the hall, Chen Chi closed the door, waited for Xu Shuang to change his shoes, and couldn't help asking, "Who are you having dinner with?"
"Colleague. Xu Shuang secretly thought, isn't she her own colleague. She slipped on her slippers and chattered over to her parents to comment on the clothes.
Xu Manting knew everything, and said in a loud voice, Xuan Chunhua looked at the price, and he had to nag his daughter twice.
"Dad. Xu Shuangchuan sat down next to Xu Manting, put her arms around Xu Manting's coquettishly, and rested her head on her father's shoulder, "Tell me mom, it's not good to buy her things." ”
Xu Manting laughed at Xu Shuang's quarrel and patted his daughter's shoulder: "Buy it for yourself in the future, and your mother won't say it." ”
"Such a big person, still coquettish. Xuan Chunhua glanced at Xu Shuang, and Le Zizi carried the clothes to the room.
Chen Chi sat on the single sofa and looked at the father and daughter with a smile.
Xuan Chunhua is currently chasing a time-traveling drama, and this fork in the effort has missed the last few minutes of the third episode tonight. "Why did she play music and sing? What happened to her? Did she remember her past life?"
Xu Shuangchuan knew that her mother had this hobby, and if she missed a little plot, her heart would itch so much that she couldn't stand it, so she immediately replied: "It's not yet, I guess I'll remember it in three episodes tomorrow." ”
"Not necessarily tomorrow. Xu Manting expressed his opinion.
Back in the room, Xu Shuangchuan spread the quilt, suddenly turned his head to Chen Chi and said, "If there is a next life, you see me, don't come to know me." ”
Chen Chi was taking off her sweater, she raised her eyebrows when she heard the words, and looked at Xu Shuang, which was funny, she was also immersed in the TV series that her mother-in-law was obsessed with and couldn't pull it out: "Do you believe this kind of ethereal thing in the next life?" he joked, "Why don't you let me get to know you?" Give me a reason. ”
Xu Shuang turned his head and continued to make the bed and fold the quilt, shaking off the whole quilt like raising rice husks, and his tone sounded very hard: "Go around, just like these people in a few lifetimes, don't you think life is rigid and barren? Everyone has more opportunities, and if they have energy, they will look at the mountains and rivers more, and they will always go around in these things, and there is no pattern at all, don't you panic?"
Chen Chi couldn't help laughing, thinking that she was complaining about the TV series just now. "Good. He nodded in agreement, his face amused.
Xu Shuang turned around, his eyes fixed on Chen Chi's face. His eyebrows were soothing, and his smile was always so bright, still the way she liked to look.
"If you see me in the next life, remember to go away, don't come to know me. ”
Xu Shuangchuan smiled and repeated to Chen Chi, word by word.
Only she knew that she was earnestly praying.
