Every year during the Qingming Festival, the cemetery will be particularly lively. Cars and people come and go, adding a little smoke to the otherwise bleak place.

The rain was still falling, not too heavy, barely wetting the road. Xu Ning was ordered by his parents to wait with his little nephew, and the couple squatted there with a clean cloth to wipe the tombstone.

The old people on both sides are gone, when they bought the cemetery, Xu Ning's family was quite wealthy, and his parents were the eldest in the family, so they didn't let their younger brothers and sisters pay for it, and they bought two adjacent cemeteries to bury the two old people at their own expense. Because it is next to each other, it is also convenient to sweep the festival, and there is no need to run at both ends like uncles and uncles. For example, her second uncle swept the tomb yesterday, and today he went to the second aunt's mother's house to pay respects.

……

It was already noon when I got home, and after eating, I learned that my boyfriend was tripped by relatives and couldn't get out, so I said hello to my parents and went to Zhou Nan's house.

Zhou Nan was almost seven months pregnant, and opened the door to her with her already pregnant belly.

At first glance, Xu Ning sighed, "Is your belly so big?" "When I touched it, it was swollen and a little hard, but I didn't dare to use it.

Zhou Nan rolled his eyes, "If it's not big, I should be worried." That means either there is something wrong with the child or she is pregnant, and neither of them can afford it.

Xu Ning thought about it, and he didn't dare to talk nonsense for fear of committing a taboo. After changing his slippers, he came over to help his friend and walk to the living room, "Isn't your old horse going back to your hometown again?" ”

"Just three days off, where will he go back?" Zhou Nan pouted, "Go out and buy me a cake, and I'll be back in a while." He looked at her again, "I thought you were patronizing and falling in love, and you had forgotten about me." ”

Xu Ning smiled, "How can I hear that you are so angry?" Let her sit on the sofa, and then run back to the entrance to bring the things she brought, "You said that you like Jiangcheng's dates, and I specially brought you two more boxes, as well as **Ju's wife cakes, red bean cakes." ”

"You still have a little conscience." Zhou Nan snorted, and suddenly sighed again, "A-Ning, I'm quite envious of you now." ”

"Envy me?" She was about to go to the kitchen to pour herself a glass of water, and when she heard the words, she looked over, "I have nothing to envy, I don't know if there will be tomorrow when I fall in love, there are old and young people in the family, how can I compare with you, I have a happy marriage and career, and I should be a mother in two months, how good." ”

Zhou Nan put on a look of 'you don't understand', and said emotionally, "I only know that many things are taken for granted when I get married." To be honest, I really understand why my parents objected to me and Ma Hongbin being together. The door is not right, the contradiction is too easy, and the feelings are consumed too quickly. ”

This seemed to mean something, Xu Ning walked back and sat beside her, "Is it that your mother-in-law has new instructions?" Later, Ma Hongbin came back from his hometown, and because his mother wanted to send his younger son to the eldest son, the couple almost didn't break up.

It's not that Zhou Nan can't tolerate people, it's really that Ma Hongbin's younger brother is twenty years old this year, and there are two rooms at home, he lives here, his uncle and sister-in-law are under one roof, and Zhou Nan is pregnant with a child, which is neither convenient nor presentable. The couple quarreled over this matter, and Zhou Nan was still clamoring to go to Jiangcheng to find her, although it ended with Ma Hongbin bowing his head and admitting his mistake, but now I look at it, the follow-up fermentation of this matter should continue, and it has already been knotted.

Zhou Nan didn't hide it, "I said that I wanted to renovate the house and rebuild it, but the money was not enough, so let Lao Ma add some more." I want 100,000 yuan when I open my mouth, and I only charge 10,000 yuan for their wedding bride price, Lao Ma is a small clerk, how much money does he earn a month, and the bank ~ bank deposit is not even 30,000, 100,000, is this looking for Lao Ma or looking for my parents? ”

Xu Ning: "...... What did the old horse say? ”

"How else can I say that he is a dutiful son, and it is estimated that the money has been remitted at this time, and the deposit/passbook has been emptied." said with a wry smile, "I'm a moonlight clan, I barely saved any money at work, and the child is about to be born, so I can't ask my parents to pay this money then, right?" A-Ning, I'm really tired, I think Lao Ma is getting more and more different from the person in my impression, do you say he became too fast or is he disguised too well? Or am I blind and haven't seen this? ”

Xu Ning didn't know what to say, in fact, it was not a big deal, but this was the easiest to hurt feelings.

"You don't want a divorce, do you?" She couldn't help but ask.

"That's not going to happen," Zhou Nan waved his hand very dryly, "It's not here yet." Her gaze seemed to be looking at the unknown void, and she said faintly, "I know he still loves me, how can I abandon him?" ”

Xu Ning: "...... "So are you moaning/moaning without illness?"

"I just thought, how can there be such a big gap when you get married? Not only did I not feel happy, but I didn't have a good relationship when I was in love. Zhou Nan sighed with emotion, "All kinds of good before marriage, all kinds of quarrels after marriage, you have to take me as a lesson in the future, be careful not to step into the grave so easily, men will change their faces after marriage." ”

……

Cheng Zhi was about to make a phone call, when he saw his girlfriend walking out of the community.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Xu Ning asked, "Why didn't you let Zhang Peng and them follow?" ”

"The Fang family incident happened," he leaned over to help her fasten her seatbelt, "Who still has the heart to stare at me now?" ”

Xu Ning was surprised, "So fast?" "Today is the first day of the Qingming holiday, the day when the people of the whole country collectively sweep the tombs.

Cheng Zhi smiled, "I didn't expect it to be today," he kissed his girlfriend on the mouth, "I finally helped you get angry." ”

"Actually, there is no need for this," she said softly, "forget it this time, and you will have to be safe in the future, you know?" Since experiencing the car accident, Xu Ning has a new understanding of the moral bottom line of the wealthy family. Although she often draws on the plot of film and television dramas to think of her boyfriend's hard road, her imagination and personal experience are different after all. She never clearly realized at that moment that the so-called wealthy family was actually an outlier that could not be judged by ordinary people's standards, commonly known as: snake spirit disease star. Morality and law are all difficult to restrict, so she becomes more cautious and cautious about certain things, and does not want to provoke.

Cheng Zhi knew that she was worried about herself, and gently reassured, "Don't worry, I won't do stupid things." Stepping on the accelerator and starting the car, he continued to talk about the Fang family, "Fang Yuan was arrested in the mistress/wife's bed in the morning, and I heard Wei Ze say that the old guy was banging with his bare buttocks at the time, and he was embarrassed and thrown to his grandmother's house, and this one alone was enough for him to drink a pot." It's a pity that I can't watch Fang Caiwei's face change in the hospital, "Shaking her head," I guess it's very exciting. ”

Thinking of his shameless stepmother, Xu Ning couldn't help but feel good, and remembered to ask, "How do you say the chairman will be chosen?" Stand by or help? ”

"He didn't dare to choose any of them, at most he made a show, so as to stabilize the Fang family and not do stupid things to affect him." Seeing that there was a steamed bun shop in front of him, he asked his girlfriend, "Do you want to eat raw frying?" ”

Thinking that he was hungry, Xu Ning was safe, "You pull over, I'll buy it," Cheng Zhi didn't let him, "I'll go down, don't move." ”

There were not many guests at this time, and after a while he came back with a bag of groceries, ten fried and two meat buns.

The two of them were not in a hurry to leave, so they ate first in the car, and halfway through Xu's mother called and asked her if she would go back to eat in the evening, Xu Ning said no, "I met a friend, I am eating out, you and my father don't have to wait for me." ”

Mother Xu responded, not chattering like usual, but instructed, "Wait a while, your second aunt's family will come over, don't come back too early, I'm afraid that she and Yulan will mention Xiaojiao again, and then I will blame you for spreading rumors or something, and it is not good to speak." ”

Xu Ning was a little helpless, and he had to avoid people when he went back to his home, it was really ...... But she didn't want to embarrass her own mother, so she had to say, "Then when will they leave, you can send me a message." ”

When I hung up the phone, I looked at my boyfriend's expectation. Xu Ning: "...... You don't have to look at me like that, I'm going home tonight. ”

"I didn't let you go home," Cheng Zhi finished eating the last bite of the meat bun, started the car again, and didn't talk deeply, just looked at Zuoyan directly, "Let's eat hot pot at night, and then buy some duck neck and duck wings at the deli in front, by the way," before he finished speaking, the mobile phone on the seat charger vibrate. Seeing that the caller ID turned out to be from my father, my face sank, and my intuition was not good.

But it's not okay to pretend not to hear, you can not take this one, but you have to go back to the past.

The phone was connected, and Cheng Guangyao didn't talk nonsense over there, and directly ordered him to go to the hospital now and say that there was something.

Something? What else could it be?

Xu Ning frowned, "What do you mean, chairman?" ”

"What else does it mean," Cheng Zhi sneered, "Good things will definitely not find me, and I don't know what kind of immoral tricks I have discussed to let me be cannon fodder." He slapped the steering wheel, still walking in the direction of the apartment, and threw the phone to his girlfriend by the way, "Help me unplug the battery." ”

Xu Ning looked at him, "You're not going?" ”

"No, no." His face was excited, "I knew that nothing good was going to come over, how masochistic I am." ”

Xu Ning knew that he was measured, and since he dared to say so, he was not afraid that Cheng Guangyao would be held responsible. After thinking about it, he reminded, "Do you want to send a text message to Chen Yang to say, in case he can't contact you, he may be anxious." ”

Cheng Zhi smiled at the corner of his mouth, "You record Wei Ze's phone number in your mobile phone, and then use your mobile phone to send a group message directly." ”

As soon as the battery was pulled, Xu Ning clearly felt that her boyfriend seemed to be relaxed. Cheng Zhi turned on the radio, found the music channel, and discussed with her what to buy at the supermarket while listening to the song. After a while, Chen Yang called over and asked on the other end, "What's the situation, why is my brother turning off the phone if he has nothing to do?" ”

Xu Ning told him about the Fang family and Cheng Guangyao asking his cousin to go to the hospital. Chen Yang laughed, feeling that his cousin was powerful.
