Chapter 400: Grace Breaks Righteousness
I looked at the car keys that Zhao Mu put on the table, and I couldn't help but have a strange feeling in my heart, I felt that this night was a bit too dreamy! Because I had already rejected a Mercedes-Benz before this, and now Zhao Mu sent me another one. But this time the mood was different from the previous one. I think Zhao Mu has a future, a year after he finished graduate school, he actually gave me a 200, although it is only a 300,000 entry car, but for a young man who works alone and is less than 30 years old, this is definitely not something that can be done casually.
I have always told Zhao Mu that there is no need to make money too clear between brothers, so this time I did not refuse. I picked up the car keys from the table and asked him, "Where's the car?" ”
"It's parked in the underground garage of Bauhinia Square, Zone B."
"Okay, then I'll go over tomorrow morning and get it."
Zhao Mu smiled, and after he asked me to rest early, he left the second and fourth alleys where I lived. I drank all the hot tea in my cup before returning to my room, and then lay on the bed, playing with my car keys, enjoying the peace of being alone at the moment.
Bored for a moment, I looked at a couple of tote bags on the bedside. Only then did I remember that before parting with Yang Qu, she told me several times to try on my clothes and shoes, and if the size didn't match, I would quickly take them for change tomorrow.
I stood in front of the fitting mirror in my room and took out my clothes and gestured about them a few times, but when I picked up the last bag, I was a little dumbfounded. Because what it contained was obviously a set of women's underwear, I don't know if it was Yang Qu's or Jin Qiu's. After looking at it for a while, I judged that it should be Jinqiu, because Yang Qu didn't have this size.
I walked around the room a few times with my phone, and then used this time to think about whether to call Jin Qiu to explain the underwear, maybe she didn't realize that Yang Qushun gave it to me.
After a while, I felt that I had to make it clear about my underwear. But just as I was about to send a message to Jin Qiu, Yang Qu sent me another message, and she asked me if I had slept.
I was startled, and hurriedly felt that the underwear was Yang Qu's, probably because I didn't pick it up and look at it carefully, so I misjudged the size of the underwear, and I immediately replied: "Are you asking about underwear?" ”
Yang Qu sent a series of frightened and questioning expressions. So, I wavered again, and only after a while did I cautiously reply: "It's okay, it's just that in the handbag you gave me today, one of them contains a set of women's underwear, either yours or Jinqiu's ......."
"Oh, oh, oh, it's not mine, I didn't buy underwear, so you can give it back to her tomorrow."
I lit a cigarette, soothed a bit, and then asked, "So what are you sending me a message for?" ”
"I just want to ask, you really don't want that car?"
I don't know why, what Zhao Mu gave me made me instinctively want to show off, I always feel that he is out of breath now, and it also comforts Zhao Chu's spirit in the sky. So, I took a photo of the car keys and sent it to her, and then sent a voice: "See, I already have the car, and it's also Mercedes-Benz, although it's a little worse than yours, but I like it better." ”
"You're going to sell your kidney!?"
Her surprised look made me even more proud, and I couldn't help but turn my voice into a second voice: "My eldest brother sent it." ”
This time, Yang Qu didn't reply for a long time, and I don't know if he fell asleep or had any extra emotions, and I also lay back on the bed and recalled everything that happened today.
From morning to night, I truly experienced the joys and sorrows of life. I think I should cherish this feeling of happiness even more, and I hope that this is the beginning of getting rid of the gray life. If my grandmother were still alive, she would be glad for me today.
At this time, Yang Qu finally sent me another message, she said: "Since you are remembered by so many people, then I won't say anything, I just feel that I am still a student, and driving such a car is too high-profile...... If you really don't want it, I think it's okay to put it in the dream tree to make a bus, Liu Liu and Kangkang don't they all have cars yet. ”
Yang Qu's decision deepened my understanding of her, she is the same as me, the bad thing is only this mouth, she is still very measured and affectionate in doing things to people. But I didn't support her decision, because it was still equivalent to me accepting the gift in disguise.
So, I changed the subject and asked her, "Do you have any bags and jewelry?" ”
"What are you doing?"
"Didn't you just drive the car, there are a lot of things to do during the New Year, there are a lot of road runs, and No. 97 gasoline is so expensive, I am thinking about letting you fund me a little, you can sell a bag and you can manage my gasoline fee for a year!"
"you...... Sleeping, too lazy to pay attention to you. ”
I smiled, and then ended the conversation with Yang Qu. It didn't take long for me to fall asleep.
Maybe it's because I've been through so much today, and I've had a lot of bits and pieces of dreams on this night. I dreamed that the guitar was back in Xiao Ai's hand, and she looked at it without saying a word, but she cried very sadly.
And I was right next to her, but she didn't notice it, and I couldn't speak, and suddenly the whole world began to thunder...... And then woke me up from this dream that I didn't know how to define.
I sat on the bed blankly for a long time, only to realize that it was not lightning and thunder at all, but the sound of firecrackers outside the window, and the footsteps of the New Year were getting closer and closer!
……
This morning, the sun was shining brightly, and I woke up early. After having breakfast outside Lane 24, he took the car keys given by Zhao Mu and returned to the Bauhinia Square near Tulip Road. The car was then found in the underground garage.
I love this car, it's not only small but it's slim, but it also has the shape and power to meet my needs. I then sent another message to Zhao Mu, telling him that I had mentioned the car and thanked him.
The moment I got in the car, I returned to Nanjing, and the first morning in the real sense began.
I first went to the Walmart in the city center to buy some daily necessities, and then went to a nearby mall, and picked out a bracelet worth more than 3,000 yuan for Jin Qiu, planning to give her that set of underwear together. At the same time, I have some New Year's goods with me, and I plan to go to see the old Jin couple, and I should also go and see them.
Sometimes, I really feel that I ignore them, not for anything else, but I don't like to face the forcibly arranged marriage between myself and Jin Qiu. At the same time, they will also be unhappy because of my lack of cooperation with Jin Qiu, so many times they simply hide.
During the Chinese New Year, Nanjing's traffic was paralyzed at any time, and I stopped and stopped all the way until it was almost noon, when I arrived at the community where Lao Jin lived.
It just so happened that Lao Jin and Luo Sumei were also returning from shopping at the supermarket, and I met them as soon as I parked the car.
Lao Jin said to Luo Sumei very happily: "See, I said that Jiang Qiao will come to see us today at most, you still don't believe it...... I am willing to gamble and lose, you have to take care of all the housework today! ”
Luo Sumei smiled and replied: "Jiangqiao came to see us, I am happier than you, I am willing to take care of this work today; Not only do the housework, but I also have to cook a table of good dishes for you...... It's been hard to stay in Shanghai for half a year! ”
I also smiled and said, "I'm looking forward to eating a table of home dishes, and I'm blessed today." ”
Both Kim and Russell smiled and led me to the entrance to the elevator.
……
This house was bought after Lao Jin retired, it is a four-bedroom house, the decoration style is very Chinese, the most memorable thing for me is the big screen in the living room, Lao Jin printed the photos of his comrades in the army on it. Of course, there is also Jiang Jiyou, who is closest to Lao Jin, one of them is the squad leader, and the other is the deputy ......
I subconsciously didn't want to look at it, so I asked Lao Jin at the moment when I avoided my gaze: "What about Jin Qiu and Yang Qu, haven't they gotten up yet?" ”
"I went out early in the morning, and I don't know what to do." As he spoke, Lao Jin opened the wine cabinet and asked me, "What kind of wine do you want to drink at noon today?" ”
As soon as I replied with "barley wine", Jin Qiu and Yang Qu came back with bags full of things. Jin Qiu asked me while changing her shoes, "Did you drive that little Mercedes-Benz parked in Area A downstairs?" ”
"Well, not bad, right?"
"It's good, it's really good."
Jin Qiu sat down on the sofa as she spoke, and after Yang Qu shouted "I'm tired", she ran into her room, as if she was afraid that I would really cheat her out of her money to refuel the car.
Of course, that's what I planned, so I'll have to work on it later after dinner, and then talk to her about anything else that I can sell...... In the few days since I came back, I have spent a serious overspending, and I can only find a way to do it to her.
After chatting with Jin Qiu for a few more words, I handed her the tote bag with the underwear and the box containing the bracelet, and said, "It's the New Year, and I also bought you a gift, I hope you like it." ”
Lao Jin and Luo Sumei seemed to care about my relationship with Jin Qiu, and as soon as my words fell, they all focused their eyes on our side. And Jin Qiu also took the handbag from me at the same time.
She misunderstood, and put aside the box containing the bracelet, and then took out the underwear she had bought herself from the handbag. Probably, she didn't realize that her things were accidentally given to me by Yang Qu.
All of this was really looked at by the old Jin couple, and then looked at me and Jin Qiu with a very strange gaze. As if to say, what do you mean by that?
I quickly shifted my gaze to Jin Qiu, and then hurriedly said to Lao Jin and Luo Sumei: "Don't get me wrong, we are innocent, the gift I bought her is in that box, and she forgot this set of underwear with me!" ”
Lao Jin questioned without a smile: "Is the underwear something that can be forgotten with you casually?" ”
Seeing that Lao Jin was so misunderstood, my heart became even more anxious, so I shouted at Yang Qu in the room: "Yang Qu, you hurry up and come out for me, and explain to your uncle and aunt what is going on with this underwear......" After I finished speaking, I said to Jin Qiu: "Forget it, I don't expect her anymore, she is a daredevil, you explain it to your uncle and aunt." ”
Jin Qiu said to me with an embarrassed face: "Excuse me, what do you want me to explain?" ”
I vaguely understood, so I yelled at Yang Qu, who was pretending to be dead in the room: "You ghost, you dig a pit for me to jump, you don't have a trick like you...... Hurry up and make it clear to me, or you won't want to eat alive today. ”
Yang Qu also shouted at me with great momentum: "What, what? …… I don't even know what you're talking about......"
I went to the door and tried to open it to pull her out of the room, only to find that she had already locked the door from the inside.
However, at this moment, I suddenly woke up: even if I gave Jin Qiu a set of underwear, it was not something that had to be explained to Lao Jin and Luo Sumei so painstakingly. Anyway, in their eyes, sooner or later, I will have to build a family with Jin Qiu.
At this time, Lao Jin asked me, who was stunned and didn't speak, "Are you already dating Jin Qiu?" ”
I leaned back subconsciously and replied, "No, we've never been in a relationship. ”
Lao Jin's face suddenly darkened, and he asked again, "Then what is your relationship now?" ”
"Cooperative relationship...... We've been working together for half a year now. ”
Lao Jin nodded, he shook his head again, and said, "I really don't know what you mean by Jiangqiao...... Could it be that my old golden girl is posted to you, accompanying you to come and go in the wind and rain in Shanghai, working hard and complaining, and you still explain to us that it is a cooperative relationship? ”
"Uncle Kim...... You, you listen to me......"
Lao Jin's emotions ignited instantly, and the underwear that he didn't know where it came from became the fuse of this incident, he patted the table and said to me: "Jiang Qiao, since the old lady died, the matter between you and Jin Qiu has been tied in my heart, and this dozen is more than half a year...... You have to give me an explanation now, do you marry Jin Qiu or not? …… If you don't marry, she won't be able to follow you to Shanghai anymore...... Because it's too inappropriate. My old Jin doesn't want others to think that I put my daughter by your side, what is it for your family...... I want to marry Jin Qiu to you, not to mention anything...... My biggest hope in this life is that you and Jin Qiu can live a good life...... Whether you are Yang Jin's son or not, I have this idea, because your father has the grace of reinvention for me, and you are also a young man I can trust! ”
The more Lao Jin talked, the more excited he became, I guess that during the days when Jin Qiu and I were away, there must have been a lot of rumors among the neighbors who reached his ears. And Lao Jin, the person he is most afraid of, is these terrible words. Not only is he hot-tempered, but he is also very sensitive......
During this time when I didn't know how to explain it, his anger finally reached its peak, he blushed, pointed at me and asked, "Jiang Qiao, don't talk any nonsense to me today, I'll ask you one last time...... Jin Qiu, do you want to marry or not? ”
I was very entangled in my heart, and I was a little afraid of him who had an evil fire, but I would never ignore my conscience in this matter, and I finally whispered to him: "...... Not married. ”
In an instant, Lao Jin's hand slapped my face, he was so angry that he trembled, and yelled at me: "If you don't marry, get out of me...... Get the hell out of this doorway now...... Jiang Qiao, you have heard me clearly, my Lao Jin has done what he should have done over the years, and he has also done what he shouldn't have done. I ask myself, I don't owe you the Jiang family, from today onwards, the two families will be cut off...... You Jiangqiao went to live the life of your son-in-law, and my old Jin didn't have eyes to see ......"
The more he talked, the angrier he became, and finally not only kicked me out of the door, but also threw out the health supplements I had bought for him and Luo Sumei...... Among them, the two bottles of honey were the most broken, and they flowed all over the ground and at my feet......
I'm sad...... Because neither Lao Jin nor I are bad people, but because of the huge difference in concepts, we have come to this point of breaking off righteousness. Moreover, the New Year will be celebrated in a few days...... I said I had to be happy, but what is it now?
