Mao Dong's heart felt as if someone had picked it up. The hands on his lap were clenched in both hands, and although his face remained unchanged, it was as if he had been stabbed with a knife.

"You have no faith in me." This is like a question, or a self-talk.

Liang Ju's hand on her lap clenched unconsciously, and she felt like something was blocked there, not up or down.

The midday sun slanted into the house through the window, like a faint golden beam, sprinkled in the air.

The sunlight was a little dazzling, and the tears in Liang Ju's eyes finally fell.

She asked him, "How do you make me believe?" ”

She said: "If my dad doesn't agree, you can not come to see me for a few days in a row, or you can move out of the house without telling me the address." How do you make me have faith in you? ”

All I felt was the warmth of the sun, and under the sun, what I saw in my eyes was dust floating in the air.

A tear flowed, and it led to a continuous stream of tears, and a complaint came out of the mouth, but it was the dissatisfaction that had been hidden in the heart for a long time.

"You know, what I mind most is not that you don't come to me, but that I actually saw Zhong Ling at your house this morning!"

"I said, she's here to deliver me clothes, how many times do you have to let me explain it to you?"

Mao Dong raised his head and looked at Liang Ju, the folds between his eyebrows getting deeper and deeper.

"Then why does she have your clothes? You say! Liang Ju looked into Mao Dong's eyes, wanting to probe into his heart to see what he was thinking.

Mao Dong closed his eyes, took a deep breath, forced to suppress his temper, and persuaded himself not to quarrel with Liang Ju, but his behavior was hidden in Liang Ju's eyes, and there was a ghost in his heart.

"Your clothes are with her, that's why you spent the night with her?"

"That's it!"

Mao Dong stood up suddenly, and Liang Ju sat on the chair and looked at him in a daze. One of his low growls broke her heart.

Mao Dong turned around, turned his back to her, and said, "Your father came to me on the night you were hospitalized, and after we talked, I was depressed and went to the beach alone to drink, and later, she also went." ”

"She's going to accompany you?"

"She just sat with me for a while, and it was cold on the beach, so I gave her my coat."

"And then?"

Mao Dong was silent for a moment and replied, "Later, I sent her home." ”

Mao Dong doesn't have much experience in love, so he naturally doesn't know that telling the truth will also lead to unnecessary conjecture.

"You sent her home, and then forgot to take her coat?"

"Hmm."

Liang Ju also got up from the chair, her face was full of tears, and the few bruises on her face were not completely healed, which made Mao Dong unbearable in his eyes.

Liang Ju looked at the coat in the white plastic bag at the door, and asked again: "Or did you spend the night at her house and forgot to take the clothes?"

"Liang Ju!" Mao Dong never thought that such a simple thing would become so complicated in Liang Ju's eyes. "Can you not think of me and Zhong Ling so dirty?"

"She likes you, don't you know?"

At this time, Mao Dong was even disappointed in Liang Ju. He closed his eyes and turned his back to Liang Ju, his chest rising and falling.

"Forget it, after all, you still don't trust me enough."

Liang Ju's eyelashes trembled a few times, she seemed to be able to guess what he was going to say next, and for a moment, she forgot what she was going to do.

"Let's calm down for a few days." Mao Dong said.

Although the indoor temperature was suitable, the sound of heartbreak still made Liang Ju feel cold all around.

"Are you going to break up with me?" She asked.

Mao Dong raised his head and sighed, his voice low and depressed.

"I never wanted to part with you, I said I wouldn't leave you as long as you didn't take the initiative to break up. This morning, I was going to officially visit your parents at your house with my things, if it wasn't for Zhong Ling coming, maybe I would have appeared at your house at this time. ”

Liang Ju looked at the position pointed by Mao Dong's finger, and noticed that there were a few bags of specially packaged items in the corner of the door.

"Now that you're excited, I can't control myself, so we'd better calm down for the time being, and then I'll go back to you."

This is the end of the first quarrel. Liang Ju looked at the gifts that were placed in the corner, and suddenly felt how ridiculous and unreasonable his behavior just now was.

What she doubted was not Mao Dong, but their feelings.

Mao Dong turned his back to Liang Ju and looked out the window, he wanted to be quiet, Liang Ju didn't know what else to explain, so he had to pick up his bag from the chair.

Silently pushed open the door and glanced back at the man, but he didn't turn around.

Walking on the side of the road with cars coming and going, Liang Ju kept thinking about the question Mao Dong had been asking her just now-

Does she believe him?

If you believe it, why would she still behave in such an unreasonable way today?

But if you don't believe it, what do you rely on to maintain the relationship between those two people?

Liang Ju knows that once one party is suspicious in the relationship, the ending of the relationship must be a failure. She didn't want to be like this, she didn't want to be like this, she only knew that she loved Mao Dong and loved him very much.

Thinking of the gaffe in front of Mao Dong just now, Liang Ju felt that she felt guilty about him.

called Yu Yanjie for the first time and wanted to seek comfort, but Yu Yanjie was working outside and couldn't get off work until the afternoon, so Liang Ju had nowhere to go, so she had to sit in the McDonald's near her work to pass the time.

After waiting for a few hours, Yu Yanjie hurried over.

"What's wrong, what's wrong?" She was in time, picked up the drink in front of Liang Ju and raised her head to drink.

Liang Ju took a few bites of French fries in his hand, and replied, "I quarreled with Mao Dong." ”

"What is the reason?"

"I went to look for him this morning and saw him with Zhong Ling."

"In bed?" Yu Yanjie blurted out.

"Nope." Liang Ju hurriedly shook his head, "It's just to send her at the door." ”

"Isn't that all right?"

"But I thought something was wrong with them, and then I"

"Then you had a big fight with Mao Dong because of Zhong Ling, right?" Yu Yanjie finished the following words for her.

Liang Ju also knew that he was wrong about this, and nodded ashamedly as he bit the fries.

"I really want to poke you in the head at the critical moment." After that, Yu Yanjie really reached out and poked Liang Ju's forehead.

"Oops, now that I'm off, I know it's wrong." Liang Ju covered his head, and his intestines were about to turn blue.

"You said you've been in love twice, don't you know what the biggest taboo in the relationship is?"

"I'm also angry and can't control it!"

"Then you can't think nonsense, what do you want Mao Dong to think like this, you don't trust him!"

"But can't you see that Zhong Ling is not the same to him in the first place?"

Yu Yanjie snatched the fries from Liang Ju's hand and tore open a bag of tomato sauce, "There are some things that you know in your heart that are a matter of a while, and it is another thing to say them." ”

"Sun Qi's incident has too much impact on me, otherwise I wouldn't be so excited." Liang Ju lay on the table and bit his lip, and slapped himself on the head, "When do you think my temper can change?" ”

"Forget it, it's already like this, anyway, didn't he say he wouldn't break up with you, just wait a few days for him to find you."

"And what if he doesn't look for it?"

Yu Yanjie glanced at Liang Ju, "It is said that the IQ of a woman in love is negative, and this is true." ”

Liang Ju grabbed Yu Yanjie's arm, "Okay, say it quickly, if he doesn't come to me, what should I do?" ”

"Then you're going to find him, stupid!"

***

In the blink of an eye, there are three days left on Chinese New Year's Eve, the work on the construction site is basically completed, and the migrant workers from other places are returning to their hometowns one after another to prepare for the New Year with their families.

Shapi and Ah Yuan went to Mao Dong's new home together and sent him a bunch of New Year's goods.

"Brother, it's pretty clean for you to clean up here." Shar Pei took a big bite of an apple in his hand as he walked around Mao Dong's new home.

"It's just an occasional cleaning." Mao Dong sat behind his desk and looked at the book in his hand.

"Brother, where are you going to spend the Chinese New Year this year?" Ah Yuan sat on a wooden chair next to the dining table and asked Mao Dong.

"Right here."

"With Sister Ling?" Ah Yuan asked hurriedly.

Mao Dong made tea, and the tea leaves swirled and floated in the hot water.

Sha Pei looked around the room and returned to the living room, "Didn't Sister Ling spend the New Year with us every year in the past few years, and this year, I think it's the same for eighty percent." ”

Ah Yuan listened to Shapi's words and didn't speak, just glanced at Mao Dong and lowered his head to peel oranges.

"A few days ago, she came to me and told me that she seemed to be going home for the Chinese New Year this year."

"She reconciled with her family?" Shar Pei asked after Mao Dong's words.

Ah Yuan peeled the orange, clutched the orange peel in his hand and held it into a ball, and finally threw it into the trash can next to him. "This time she went to Hangzhou, she went to her parents' new home, and the two old people are also old, so they should be forgiven."

After graduating from university, Zhong Ling did not move to Hangzhou with her parents, but chose to stay in Qihai alone. Her wedding with Mao Bei was not approved by her parents, and her mother chose a suitable family for her, but unfortunately she was rejected by Zhong Ling in person, and finally caused her mother and father to cut off their relationship with her.

Thinking of this, Shar Pei actually laughed. "You said that the infatuated women in the world let you meet Brother Bei, and you can turn your face with your parents for the sake of affection. If I Shar Pei can meet such a woman in my life, I am willing to die. ”

Ah Yuan glanced at him, "You hug each other every day, it's not easy to find one." ”

"Come on, how can I compare to Brother Ayuan, just one meal can fascinate other people's simple little sister to death."

"Who are you talking about?"

"It's the classmate of the orange, what's the name Zeng Shumin! That's right, it's called Zeng Shumin! ”

As soon as Zeng Shumin and Ayuan were mentioned, Zeng Shumin had a big head, since that dinner, Zeng Shumin asked Liang Ju about Ayuan's news, and found his work address, and waited for him downstairs after work every day.

The little girl was not as crazy as other suitors, but stood quietly downstairs waiting for Ah Yuan, either giving him food or a scarf or gloves knitted by herself, so that Ah Yuan quickly hid as soon as she saw her now.

Mao Dong smiled silently, but Sha Pei made Ah Yuan blush.

Mao Dong suddenly asked Shapi, "You just said that Liang Ju had a falling out with his parents?" ”

Sha Pei was arguing with Ah Yuan, and nodded with a smile when she heard this, "No one can stop that girl from having a burst of tiger energy, she just ran to you directly after being discharged from the hospital last time, I heard that she hasn't been home for many days, and now she is stiff with her parents." ”

Seeing Mao Dong's confused look, Sha Pei asked again: "Why, didn't she sue you?" ”

Mao Dong asked, "Do you know where she lives now?" ”

"It should be in Yanjie's house."

***

Mao Dong didn't know Yu Yanjie's phone number, so he asked Shapi to help him ask for the address.

Since Yu Yanjie's parents divorced, Yu Yanjie has never returned to that home. She usually lives in the dormitory, but during the holidays, she temporarily lives at her aunt's house, and plans to move out and rent a house by herself when she finds a job after graduation.

Liang Ju soaked with Yu Yanjie every day during this time, Yu Yanjie went to work, she helped her clean up her house at home, Yu Yanjie's aunt has been divorced and the child was awarded to the other party, and she is usually busy with work and clean at home, it is rare that there is one more cleaner in the excitement now, and she is also willing to let Liang Ju live here for a few more days.

Liang Ju has been counting the days almost every day, and every day passes, her heart will be more suspended, and she will sit on the bed with her mobile phone and look at the calendar on the mobile phone, wishing that time would pass slowly, slowly.

The day passed too quickly, and the man didn't come to her, and she was depressed.

Father Liang Zhifu asked his cousin to come to Liang Ju several times, but Liang Ju persuaded him to go back, she said: "As long as my father doesn't agree with us being together for a day, I won't go home for a day." ”

"Then the Chinese New Year's Eve are you also going to spend it at someone else's house?" Cousin asked her.

"Hmph, not necessarily."

Seeing that it is about to be the New Year, Liang Ju has been pounding the drum in his heart, it is not a matter to drag it out like this, Mao Dong has no letter over there, and she will definitely go home for the New Year when the New Year arrives.

Just as Liang Ju got on the bus of Mao Dong's house and walked to the suburbs, on the other side, Mao Dong had already arrived at Yu Yanjie's aunt's house.

"Hello, is this Aunt Yu Yanjie's house?" Mao Dong stood outside the door with a few bags of fruit and asked respectfully.

The one who opened the door was Yu Yanjie's aunt, and when she saw that the outsider was actually a handsome guy, she stammered and said, "Yes, yes, who are you looking for?" ”

"Hello, I'm Yu Yanjie's classmate Liang Ju's boyfriend, I'm here to find Liang Ju."

When she heard that she wasn't looking for her niece, her aunt's smile wasn't so bright. "You're looking for oranges, she's out early in the morning."

"Do you know where to go?"

"I don't know, you can call her and try."

"Okay, thank you then. By the way, this is a little bit of my caution, Liang Ju has caused you trouble staying here these days. ”

Seeing that Liang Ju's boyfriend was so considerate and careful, even the aunt felt a little envious.

――――

No one opened the door again, and this time Liang Ju's enthusiasm was still poured cold water.

On the phone, the line was busy, Liang Ju thought, presumably Mao Dong was out to work.

She walked around the small courtyard downstairs of Mao Dong's new house a few times, the temperature has warmed up in the past few days, and the warm sunlight on her body does not feel sunburned, which is also a good time to bask in the sun.

The mobile phone suddenly vibrate, Liang Ju quickly picked it up and saw that it was Mao Dong who gave her the phone back.

"Hello?" Liang Ju picked it up gently, feeling a little nervous.

"Where are you?" The sound waves on the other end of the phone were steady and deep, like a bamboo that disturbed Liang Ju's heart and stirred up waves on the surface of the river.

"I'm at your doorstep."

There was the sound of a car honking on the other side of the phone, Liang Ju didn't speak, but he heard his heart pounding.

Mao Dong said: "You are waiting for me there, I will go back now." ”

"Okay."

Liang Ju sat on a bench in the garden, looking at the residents on the opposite street who were going to buy vegetables with vegetable pockets, or the grandmothers and grandfathers who led their children out to bask in the sun, and his mood became much calmer.

There are a few stray cats that are not afraid of people at all in front of Liang Ju swaggering and dogging, occasionally making a few meows, Liang Ju has liked small animals since he was a child, looking at them, pursing his lips and smiling.

I don't know how long I sat there, but finally, a figure appeared on his side, obliquely reflected in front of Liang Ju.

When I looked up, the person I saw was actually Mao Dong, who was wearing a scarf and a beige coat that Liang Ju had never seen before.

Liang Ju hurriedly stood up, "You're back?" ”

"Waited a long time here?"

Liang Ju saw Mao Dong carrying a small bag of supermarket in his hand, which contained milk and bread.

He handed her the thing and sat down beside her. "You haven't eaten in the morning, have you?"

Liang Ju took the food in his hand, as if he put it in his heart, full. "Have you eaten it?"

"Yes, I have a habit of eating breakfast in the morning."

"I didn't."

She smiled at him, and he smiled, and he smiled beautifully.

Mao Dong said: "I went to Yu Yanjie to look for you, but you are not there." ”

"What?" Liang Ju had bread in his mouth, and his words were vague, "You went to Jiejie?" ”

"Hmm. Her aunt opened the door and told me that you would go out in the morning. ”

The bread that Mao Dong bought was filled with red beans, and Liang Ju remembered telling him before that she loved to eat red bean paste.

The creamy bean paste is sweet in the mouth, and the noodles are □□ and crispy.

Two people sat side by side on a bench in the garden, the sun shining warmly behind them, and the golden sprinkled in the garden.

Bursts of fragrance blew with the cold wind, and Liang Ju drank milk, changing his usual grin.

"Where are you going to spend the New Year? Go back to your hometown? ”

"No, it's just praying for the sea."

"Then let's go together!" Liang Ju opened his mouth excitedly and asked, only after asking did he feel that something was wrong. "Are you going to spend time with your family?"

Mao Dong smiled faintly, his smile was a little helpless, "I don't have a family in Qihai, the most I can do is to go to see my aunt." ”

"Is your aunt praying for the sea?"

"No, in my hometown. But in the past few years, they have moved to my sister's house, which is near Qihai. ”

"Oh." The bread paper was rubbed in Liang Ju's hand, she bit her lip, and rarely became quiet.

"Are you at home?" Mao Dong looked at her sideways.

Regarding the stiff relationship with his parents, Liang Ju hasn't decided whether to sue Mao Dong or not. She nodded and hummed softly.

"Let's go, I'll take you home before noon." Mao Dong got up and patted his coat gently.

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Liang Ju didn't move, sat on the chair and looked up and asked.

Mao Dong lowered his eyes to look at her, "Don't let your parents worry." ”

"You're going to take me home?"

"Yes, to see you come home with my own eyes."

"But," Liang Ju stood up and frowned slightly, "I quarreled with my parents and can't go back for the time being." ”

Mao Dong didn't have a surprised expression, he wore black leather gloves on both hands, and he also held a car key in his hand.

"For our business?"

"Hmm."

Liang Ju heard him sigh lightly, and then his hand was grabbed.

"Let's go, I'll take you home."

"Wait a minute!" Liang Ju still stood still.

"What's wrong?" Mao Dong turned around.

"You're not mad at me anymore?" Liang Ju's voice was timid and cautious.

Mao Dong seemed to be angry with her, rubbed her hair a few times, and let out a low voice.

"Silly girl."
