Chen Yi didn't drop the umbrella, because I was standing on the steps, she looked up at me and asked, "Why haven't you slept yet?" ”

After a staggered look, I didn't look at her face, just looked at her right hand holding an umbrella and replied: "I just took edamame to a movie......" Speaking of this, I stopped, then looked at her face and smiled, and said: "He said that you promised to take him to the movies some time ago, because you haven't been here for a few days, he has been pestering me!" ”

"I promised him."

I couldn't pick up on her words, so I fell into silence again, and the rain fell from the eaves and dripped on her umbrella, and the sound was exceptionally clear.

After a moment of silence, I asked her again, "How are you, are you okay?" ”

"It's okay, I'll go to Taili tomorrow to apply for annual leave, and I'll leave for a trip abroad in the next few days."

"Hmm...... How long to go? ”

"There are about six countries, for more than a month."

I nodded, and then said to her, "Have fun." ”

Chen Yi responded with a smile in response, and then walked along the damp path to the small courtyard where I lived, I stood under the eaves for a while, the showers gradually stopped, and the alley became extremely quiet, and I heard the sound of the cabinets opening and closing from Chen Yi's residence, and she was packing her things.

I finally opened the courtyard door, and when I entered the house, I warmed up the meal that I had worked so hard to make tonight, and sat down at the small square table under the eaves to eat.

The familiar sound of footsteps came from the alley again, and I knew that it was Chen Yi who had packed his luggage and left.

This time, I didn't see her off, but silently wished in my heart that after this long journey, her mood would be a little better, and in the more than a month since she left, my Jiangqiao will definitely change, and I will become a small boss of a piano store.

Sounds like that, hehe!

……

The next day, I got up early, and then called Xiao Ai and asked her to discuss the renovation plan together. She came to my little courtyard at half-past nine, and I cooked some rice balls for her, and I stir-fried the rest of the rice from last night.

During breakfast, Xiao Ai would always look at me intentionally or unintentionally, and I was a little embarrassed by her, so I took out my mobile phone from my pocket and played a song of Zheng Jun's "Meteor", and after focusing all my attention on the song, I successfully eliminated the embarrassment caused by her looking at me.

But she didn't want to, she turned her phone to silent, and then said to me with a straight face: "Can you take the rice grains off your mouth?" ”

I was even more embarrassed, and I made up for the picture of my mouth with rice grains on my mouth, but shaking my head along with the music......

I hurriedly dusted off the rice grains on my mouth with my hand, stared at Xiao Ai for a long time, and then said, "You deliberately held back to see me make a fool, right?" …… I'm about to make an embarrassment! ”

Xiao Ai glanced at me and replied lightly: "If you are a person who will repay your flaws, you can take revenge now...... However, I'm certainly not going to be as disgraced as you just did...... Haha, it's embarrassing enough, and you even put on another piece of music to follow behind and shake your head, you are the legendary fancy shame, right...... Ha ha! ”

I couldn't stand her wilting a little, so I grabbed a handful of fried rice from my bowl and wiped it on her face......

This wipe wiped a new height, not only on her face, but also on her hair...... Of course, I knew that my joke was a bit too big, so I just didn't do it, and while stepping back, I took a picture of her appearance with my mobile phone, and shouted in my mouth: "Ruyi...... What's wrong with your face? …… Why are it all greasy and greasy pimples, are they pimples? …… Hahahaha......"

Xiao Ai dusted off the rice grains on his face with his hands, and said to me in a frenzied manner: "Jiang Qiao, am I a woman in my eyes?" …… It's like a flower, and you can also spoil it...... No wonder Edamame calls you Futatsuhashi...... Hurry up and die! ”

Xiao Ai chased after her, and while I retreated, I opened my teeth and claws at her, and there were words in my mouth: "We are called sharing happiness and ugliness, from today on, I will regard you as my class compatriot...... Follow me, endless delicacies of the mountains and seas, endless glory and wealth! ”

After making such a fuss for a while, when the two of them stopped, they were already out of breath, and in the fatigue after this fight, I was reluctant to think of the scene that happened last night, but I still had to find a suitable time to chat with Zhao Mu.

Our brotherhood of more than 20 years should not be here, stranded on this matter, and I don't want him to treat me as an enemy, because after Zhao Chu leaves, I am the brother who will definitely be responsible for him in everything in this world.

……

I fetched some well water for Xiao Ai, and she washed her face again with my facial cleanser. When she wiped the water stains on her face with a towel, she said to me: "Let's improve the efficiency of our work, I know the most about decoration, so I went to talk to the decoration company about ......."

I was a little uneasy, because she was used to spending money lavishly, but I didn't want her to say to me very tacitly: "Don't worry, I will strictly control the budget for decoration within 80,000 yuan." ”

"What about me, what do I do?"

"I have in my bag a copy of the class fee for each subject made last night, as well as my personal information, you go to the advertising agency to print it out, and then bind it into a booklet for later publicity."

I accepted her because it was similar to what I had envisioned, and I was in charge of the planning and publicity of the piano store, and she was in charge of teaching and daily management.

After the assignment was assigned, we stood at the entrance of the alley and waited for the bus, Xiao Ai left before me, and we made an appointment to meet in front of the convenience store in the evening.

……

Sitting on the bus, I received a text message from Qiao Ye, the mobile phone I bought for him a few days ago finally worked, he said: "Jiangqiao, today my dad went to Beijing on a business trip, my mother and Qin Miao went to a relative's house in Shanghai, there are no outsiders at home, you help your buddy buy some wine." ”

Qiao Ye still looks like this ghost, in his eyes, his parents and Qin Miao are outsiders, only the little security guard who was bought by him is his own person.

I replied, "I'll send it to you when I'm done." ”

"I remember that you don't have a barbecue grill at home, you can also get it together, and then go to the supermarket to buy some meat skewers or something, let's have a skewer."

"Shall I get you another boiler and bring a few cooks?" Let's have another Manchurian banquet......"

"Low-key...... Low profile! ”

I couldn't cry or laugh, and I felt that he was a cockroach that couldn't be trampled on, and although he was staying in "hell", he still couldn't forget the joy of wine and meat.

……

Throughout the day, I ran between advertisements, compared prices many times, and finally selected a very cost-effective one-page advertising company, and then handed over all the one-page advertising and in-store display advertising business to them.

It was already afternoon, I went to the supermarket to buy some beer that I and Qiao Ye both liked to drink, thought about it for a while, or went home to get a barbecue grill, because now Qiao Ye is almost like going to prison, as a brother, I have the obligation to go to the soup to improve his food.

After preparing all these things, I went to Qiao Ye's residence before dusk came, and then sent Xiao Ai a message, telling her of my whereabouts, saying that I might go back later.

After a while, I came to the villa area where Qiao Ye lived, and the skinny little security guard sneakily led me into the courtyard of the villa.

At this moment, he is no longer sloppy, where is the same Qiao Ye who used to go to the hairdresser every time he goes out and blows his hair very stylishly!

Set up the barbecue grill, I put the meat skewers on it and grilled it, and at the same time, my mouth was not idle, and after chatting for a while, I asked Qiao Ye, "How long is your father going to lock you up like this?" ”

"He said, I don't agree to live a good life with Qin Miao one day, and I want to go out one day...... He's an illegal prisoner, isn't it? ”

I put the kebabs on a plate, handed them to him through the guardrail, and said, "Then you can sue him, complain to me about a fart, and the police station is not my house!" ”

Qiao Ye sighed: "I'm really aggrieved, I want to call the police, it is estimated that it is useless, at most it is to deal with family disputes, how awesome and capable are they ...... I'm a fart who has no freedom and no right to choose life! ”

"You can clearly recognize where you are now, I still give you a positive ......" I said, and I shouted to the little security guard who was giving us wind not far away: "Security brother, come over for a bit?" ”

The little security guard replied nervously: "You go back a little, don't be photographed by the surveillance, otherwise I won't be able to eat and go!" ”

I was a little bored and said, "Can we have something else to talk about besides surveillance?" Are you involved with surveillance? ”

"Big brother, can you understand my feelings as a traitor?"

I made an ok gesture to him, and then focused on chatting with Qiao Ye, and he asked me again, "Jiang Qiao, how are you doing with that girl from Nanyi?" …… Have you come to the point of talking about marriage? ”

"Talking about marriage? …… She and I weren't in such a hurry to catch up, but it's true that we're going to get a piano shop together! ”

Qiao Ye beckoned to me, motioned for me to walk in a little, and then whispered in my ear, "Are you short of money?" I've saved a little bit abroad, almost 15,000 dollars, euros! ”

I looked at him and asked, "How did you earn it?" ”

"Do some odd jobs at Su Han's bar, don't worry, this money is coming from the right way."

I was moved in my heart, although Qiao Ye is unreliable, but he is still very active in paying his brother in money, I stared at him for a while, and then said: "If you want to say that you have this money a few days ago, it is really a charcoal in the snow!" Now, though, I've solved the ...... If you don't think you can use this money in your hands, go and return it to Qin Miao. ”

Qiao Ye suddenly seemed to be a different person, and he said very unhappily: "Why the should I pay her back?" I don't owe her! ”

"The money you used to open the Suhan Hotel was actually transferred to you by her entrusting Chen Yi...... Otherwise, you have done so many unreliable things, and the hotel has closed down, how could Chen Yi not mention the matter of repaying the money with you? Hundreds of thousands! ”

Qiao Ye looked at me with an incredible look, and then fell silent...... And this matter, after the closure of Suhan Hotel, I didn't plan to hide it from him anymore, just because he couldn't be contacted abroad and never had a chance.

As for Qin Miao and Su Han, as Qiao Ye's brothers, after so many things have happened, I don't want to be very subjective to favor anyone, I just want to stand in a neutral position, what happened, tell him the truth.
