Chapter 11: Lishu and Liuti (2)

At noon, Xiang Hui didn't even eat a few bites of food, so he locked himself in his room. Until Liu Hui's mother and daughter left, he didn't come out. Liu Hui only thought he was taking a nap, but no one expected that he was actually sulking. He has a big temper, and he comes and goes slowly. Such a person often sulks for a long time, but this time, his anger quickly subsided.

At dinner in the evening, he seemed to inadvertently talk about Liu Hui bringing a daughter over to help when he came to clean today.

Zou Mingfang obviously didn't believe it.

"Really, say it's her daughter from the country."

Zou Mingfang remembered, "I said, that's her biological daughter." ”

Xiang Hui looked at his mother inexplicably.

Zou Mingfang said: "Her previous husband died and remarried. The daughter was left with her grandparents in the countryside. ”

Xiang Peihong didn't like to listen to these short things in other people's parents, and said impatiently: "Eat!" What do you do when you talk about other people's affairs? ”

There was silence at the dinner table.

That night, Xiang Hui kept thinking about An Su's smile, and he couldn't help laughing when he thought about it. Thinking that she was left in the countryside to follow her grandparents, she was slightly distressed for some reason. It was a feeling he had never felt before, and it left him a little overwhelmed.

Xiang Hui, who hadn't slept well all night, woke up listless, he blamed Ansu for all this, but he couldn't help but want to see her again. Instead of eating the breakfast his mother had prepared for him, he went to the snack bar at Anso's stepfather's house. Sure enough, as he expected, An Su was helping in the store, and he was happy. Seeing her busy figure, I suddenly felt a little nervous for some reason. He cursed in his heart that he was unproductive, isn't he just a little girl? What's there to be nervous about?

The sensible Ansu got up early in the morning and went to the store to help. My stepfather and mother were busy in the kitchen, and she served dishes and collected money from customers in the store.

Xiang Hui hesitated outside for a moment before entering the store and finding a seat to sit down.

Ansu saw someone entering the store and didn't notice that it was Xiang Hui, so he hurriedly went over to greet him. When I came to him, I realized that it was him, and I immediately felt uncomfortable. Thinking about the instant change of face yesterday, I don't know if it will be the same today. It's not like yesterday, and there are other customers in the store. Thinking like this, she forgot to ask Xiang Hui what she wanted to eat, and stood in front of him with a look of embarrassment.

The person who had been thinking about seeing in the morning was standing in front of him at this moment, so that Xiang Hui, who had always been down-to-earth and generous, forgot to order food, and just looked at her directly. Looking at the girl so directly, it was the first time in his life that his heart couldn't help but pound.

Ansu was overwhelmed by what he saw, and looked around, surrounded by people eating breakfast. She suddenly felt the urge to turn around and run away, but the customer couldn't help but greet him when he entered the store. The two confronted each other like this, and the other guests couldn't help but bow their heads with the puzzled glances they took. There was no way to go on like this, she gritted her teeth and asked, "What do you want to eat?" ”

Xiang Hui came back to his senses at this time, cleared his voice to hide his embarrassment, and said without thinking about it: "That...... What's that, let's get a wonton. "God knows he didn't want to eat wonton at all, he didn't like to eat such soup and water the most. He regretted it when he said it, and he couldn't help but scold himself in his heart for being unproductive.

"Good! Wait! After Ansu finished speaking, he immediately turned around and left.

Seeing that she looked like she had successfully escaped, Xiang Hui was unhappy. This little girl didn't sleep well all night, and he couldn't help but come here early in the morning, but when she saw him, he couldn't help but be annoyed. He didn't let her get her wish, and suddenly had a prankster heart. He called her back.

Ansu, who was in a hurry to get out, heard Xiang Hui's voice, and his scalp suddenly went numb, but he had to turn around and come back, "What else do you need?" ”

Xiang Hui asked seriously: "How much is a wonton?" ”

"Two pieces."

"What about the soup?"

"Soup doesn't cost money."

"Good! It's okay. ”

That's it? Ansu was a little incredulous. For some reason, such a simple conversation made her faintly uneasy, but she didn't realize what was wrong with it.

Confused, she walked into the kitchen. When the wonton was ready, she was hesitating and didn't want to bring it to Xiang Hui, but the others were not available. She had no choice but to take it to Xiang Hui. She didn't say anything, put the bowl down and left.

Xiang Hui's eyes rolled slightly, and a wicked smile appeared on his face. After a while, he beckoned to Ansu. An Su thought that he was going to settle the bill, and walked over obediently.

Xiang Hui looked at the bowl on the table, then looked at An Su, and said seriously: "You just said, wonton costs two yuan a piece, and the soup doesn't cost money." Is it? ”

Ansu looked at the bowl on the table, there was only wonton and no soup there. Although confused, he nodded.

Xiang Hui continued: "I haven't eaten any of the wontons in this bowl, and I'll give them all back to you." After speaking, he added with a smile, "I don't believe you count!" ”

An Su had never seen such a cheeky person, and he didn't know what to do, so his face was red with anger, and his eyes were staring at him deadly. I thought to myself, when I went to his house yesterday and saw such a person from a good family, he should be a very educated child. How can there be such a person?

Xiang Hui saw that An Su's face was flushed with anger, and he knew that the prank was successful. Looking at the look of her eyes staring at him with a bewildered look, he felt a burst of joy in his heart. It turns out that she not only looks good when she laughs, but also looks vivid when she is angry. This little girl is too easily provoked. It was as if he had found something interesting to play with in the future. Thinking of this, Xiang Hui held back a smile and looked at her defiantly.

If it was in the village, An Su would definitely not be polite to him, but now that she is in her stepfather's shop, she knows that she can't cause trouble to her mother, so she is secretly counting in her heart to calm down.

The two looked at each other like this, An Su's face gradually returned to normal, and his eyes gradually revealed disgust, which made Xiang Hui feel as if he had been pierced by a thorn. Originally, he wanted to tease her again, but he didn't expect to become embarrassed in the end. It's not that he didn't want to apologize, but in front of so many people, he couldn't pull his face. In the end, he had to take out two dollars from his pocket and put them on the table, and walked out of the small store as if he were running away.

Adolescent boys often do unexpected things in order to attract the attention of the opposite sex, such as deliberately teasing each other, giving each other nicknames, or pulling each other's hair from time to time, which is often very offensive to girls, but for boys, it is a way for him to express his affection.

The next morning, Xiang Hui came to the shop again. I didn't see Ansu's figure at the door of the store, and he didn't go in. On the morning of the third and fourth days, he still didn't see Ansu in the shop, which made him feel a little disappointed. On the fifth day, it was the day when Liu Hui came to clean up. Since noon, Xiang Hui has been looking forward to it. Although I knew that she was unlikely to come, I couldn't help but look forward to it. When he saw Liu Hui appear at his house alone, the sense of loss that his hopes were disappointed made him no longer have the heart to play games. looked at Liu Hui's busy figure, and stopped talking again and again. Finally, when Liu Hui finished his work and was about to leave, he finally mustered up the courage to ask An Su, and learned that she had returned to her grandparents' house in the countryside that afternoon.

This news disappointed Xiang Hui for several days, and he couldn't even arouse his interest in playing games, let alone practicing calligraphy. As soon as I lift the pen, that smiling face automatically appears in my mind, and when I play a game, the same smiling face appears on the screen. Suddenly, that smiling face was like a shadow of herself, everywhere.

When will I see her again?
