In the days when autumn and winter are about to alternate, there seems to be a lot of rain, so in the moment after the golden autumn leaves, the sky is dripping with a light rain, and the wind has been blowing with the smell of late autumn, and I have lost the mood to do everything, just sit under the eaves and listen to the sound of rain dripping, I can't adapt to this noon with nothing to do, but I don't want to plan the future full of uncertainties too early.

At lunchtime, Qiao Ye returned to his residence from outside, he didn't know that I was unemployed, so he didn't notice my mood, and still said to me in a very high tone as usual: "Jiang Qiao, I will move to the hotel this afternoon, let's have a meal together tonight, which is a goodbye." ”

"Your hotel is also separated from me by an alley, can you not make the form more than the content?"

"Yes, then even if my brother thanks you for taking you in, please have a meal."

"You're welcome."

"You are so abrasive to invite you to dinner, Chen Yi is more famous than you, I just called and said that I would invite her to dinner in the evening to express my gratitude, and people are not as hypocritical as you, so I agreed without saying a word."

Suddenly hearing Chen Yi's name, I felt a burst of unspeakable emotions in my heart, but Qiao Ye took my silence as a default, and after making a gesture of phone contact at night, he went back to the room where he lived before and packed his luggage.

After Qiao Ye left, I finally felt a little hungry, so I took out a bag of dried noodles from the refrigerator and put it in the rice cooker to cook, and in the process, I received a message from Yu Xin, she asked me to return the car to Xiao Ai before the end of the day, and buy her some food. Only then did I remember: I haven't returned Xiao Ai's car since I drove it back the day before yesterday, and because I went to Shanghai to pick up Jin Qiu yesterday, the fuel in the car was used up, and I didn't remember to fill it up.

I immediately gave up the idea of eating instant noodles, found the car keys, left my residence, and then drove the car to the gas station, and filled up the gas very honestly before driving towards Xiao Ai's residence.

……

I bought some groceries at the supermarket opposite the community, then drove the car to the door of the townhouse where Xiao Ai lived, honked the car horn, and the door was opened as soon as possible, and it seemed that this girl had been waiting for me.

Inside, Xiao Ai was sitting on the sofa eating puffed food like potato chips, with a few magazines and DVDs next to her, and the house that had been cleaned up for her the day before yesterday had become very messy, and the irregular miscellaneous items made people look terrible.

I put down my shopping bag and complained to her as I cleaned it up, "Do you have ADHD, you still have the ability to make such a mess of the house with a twisted foot!" ”

Xiao Ai picked up a pillow next to him and threw it at me, and replied, "Yes, I will suffer from ADHD when I am bored." ”

I grabbed the pillow and put it back in its place, and then put the DVDs and magazines in order on the coffee table for her, and she suddenly remembered something and asked me, "Aren't you going to work today?" I thought you weren't going to come until the evening. ”

I tried to keep myself as emotional as I could and replied, "I just got fired from the company and I'm unemployed." ”

Xiao Ai put down the potato chips in his hand, looked at me with a disbelieving expression and asked, "Are you joking with me?" ”

"Our boss's daughter has returned from studying abroad, and when she wants to reform the company, the first thing to do is definitely an employee like me who has no academic qualifications...... That's fine, save me from worrying about your affairs, and even if you turn the wedding upside down, it won't have anything to do with me! ”

In Xiao Ai's eyes, what I lost was just a job, so she didn't pay much attention to it, but just asked me expressionlessly: "Have you changed your mentality now, do you really want me to go to the wedding to make a scene, and the company's life and death don't care?" ”

I shook my head and replied, "That's really a joke. In my heart, I actually hope that you can choose to calm things down, because scheming with a woman like Li Zishan is actually punishing herself in disguise, in addition to making herself unhappy, but also falling into her arms, so that she can shamelessly transfer the risk to the innocent wedding company, so that she can even save half of the cost of the wedding. If you hate her so much, why do you save this money for her? ”

"Cut, other companies don't want you anymore, and you still think about things from their standpoint, you're just a good person, right?"

"It's good to get together and disperse, even if you can't cooperate in the future, the previous relationship is still there." I replied with a smile, but the bitterness in my heart is also real, after all, it is the company I have worked for 6 years, it has given me food and clothing, and it has also brought me closer to all the truths and hypocrisies of this world.

Xiao Ai was noncommittal about my thoughts, and she asked me again, "Then what are you going to do in the future?" ”

I was at a loss for a while, and I replied for a long time: "Let's talk about the future later, take advantage of the time now, and want to relax yourself first." ”

……

This lunch of only me and Xiao Ai, I didn't make it too grand, I simply made two dishes and one soup, and then the two of them gathered around the table and began to eat. My appetite is very average, but Xiao Ai seems to be good, she ate two bowls of white rice, and the dishes are not less, just when she was about to finish eating, she said to me on a whim: "Jiang Qiao, you have nothing to do in the afternoon anyway, take me out to play, I'm about to suffocate to death in the past few days!" ”

"Can't you stay at home honestly as soon as you're sick? Besides, it's not raining outside, what's the fun! ”

"Go shopping."

I looked at her still bandaged ankles and asked, "How's it going, am I carrying you?" ”

Xiao Ai got up from the sofa and said to me: "I can already walk in small steps, but I twisted my foot, and I didn't hurt my bones, if I can't walk, you can carry me, anyway, I don't want to be bored at home at all, because I will be cranky!" ”

I saw that she was pitiful, and I was afraid that she would be depressed at home, so I agreed to her, but I only wanted to take her for a walk, not the kind of shopping for the purpose of shopping.

I washed the dishes and chopsticks I ate, and Xiao Ai also used this time to change into a set of loose clothes, but he was still wearing a pair of cotton slippers that looked very soft, and he walked carefully.

I asked her to hold me, and the two of us walked to the courtyard together, and then held up an umbrella and walked towards the most prosperous Confucius Temple nearby......

……

Even though the rain is still dripping, the neighborhoods centered on the Confucius Temple are still full of people, but most of them are not locals, so you can see tourists with cameras on their chests and stopping to ask for directions.

The area of the umbrella is not large, so Xiao Ai has been next to me, which makes us seem very close, so we were misunderstood by the owners who opened hotels nearby, and kept encouraging us to go to their places to open a room, saying that their hotels were hygienic and clean; And some of the food vendors didn't let us go, and they couldn't wait to drag us into their little restaurants. If I don't go, I'm slamming the door, I don't know how to have fun, and I don't love my girlfriend enough......

I can only smile helplessly, as if this phenomenon has evolved into a characteristic of this neighborhood, but it also has its own charm, because some men and women who are not couples will explain while enjoying the feeling of being misunderstood.

Xiao Ai, a girl, is the kind that is easy to attract attention in the crowd, especially when she is wearing cotton slippers, which makes her even more likely to turn around, but she herself doesn't care about the eyes that are cast at her, she still goes her own way holding a box of popcorn, eating and walking.

I grabbed her and said to her, "Your shoes are wet, I'll send you back." ”

"I haven't had enough."

I didn't understand her determination to go shopping, so I asked, "Aren't you uncomfortable when your shoes get wet?" ”

"It's not uncomfortable at all! …… Let's go to the shopping mall over there. She didn't give me a chance to refuse, and dragged me towards a more prosperous neighborhood, and then into a larger shopping mall.

I thought she wanted to buy something, but I didn't want her to take me to a very high-end men's clothing counter, and then stand in front of the hanger to pick left and right, and the salesperson also came over at the right time, and said to her with a smile: "Miss, are you buying clothes for your boyfriend?" I can give you some advice on the outfit. ”

Xiao Ai turned his head to look at the salesman standing beside him, but he didn't bother to explain the relationship between us, and he didn't ask her to give a so-called opinion, but said: "You can help me get a set of sizes that he can wear on this dress, and let him try it." ”

The salesperson asked me for the size and left temporarily, and I asked Xiao Ai in confusion, "Why did you suddenly help me buy clothes?" ”

"Don't you want to look for a job again when you're unemployed? So buy a few outfits so that you can dress mentally for the interview. ”

"The work on my side hasn't been handed over yet, so it's too early for you to think about it!"

"Be prepared and don't have consequences."

"Why are you so thoughtful about me? You're not a very attentive girl in my eyes. ”

Xiao Ai looked at me and said to me very lightly: "Whoever is good to me, I will be doubly good to him." ”

I had a subtle feeling in my heart, but I replied very uninterestingly: "According to your meaning, if I give you a hundred yuan, you will pay me back two hundred yuan?" …… Hurry up, I still have more than 1,000 yuan in my wallet, all for you, you can help me double it! ”

Xiao Ai glared at me and scolded mercilessly: "Why don't you die of this little slippery head?" ”

……

This afternoon, I couldn't refuse Xiao Ai's various kindnesses, and she helped me buy several sets of valuable clothes in one go. Not only that, but she also bought a massage chair with a lot of value, saying that she was going to visit my grandmother in the nursing home later, and in her understanding of me, she knew that I had a grandmother. She wanted to go to the nursing home earlier, but because we had a fight and gave up, now that we are reconciled again, there is no conflict of positions, so she has the idea of visiting again.

However, I resisted. Because I don't know whether I should tell my grandmother the truth about losing my job, and I am afraid that she will mention Chen Yi in front of me, and I will inevitably feel sad again
