27. Chapter XXVII
The meal was funny and full of gunpowder because of the meeting between Qin Sheng and Miao Lili.
Fortunately, Qin Sheng now lives in his old man's house, has a strict curfew, and after eating, the family called him and asked him why he didn't go back.
He was like a mouse who had seen a cat, he promised again and again, turned around and said goodbye to Ye Ci and them, and immediately rushed home in a taxi.
Before leaving, he specially glanced at Miao Lili, with contempt in his eyes, to show his high style.
Miao Lili didn't like people like Qin Sheng, she got in the car, and complained there vigorously, saying: "Master, this person is a stinky hooligan, you are in the same unit with him, you have to be careful in the future!" ”
Ye Ci smiled and promised her that it would be good.
Miao Lili turned her head to look out of the window, and suddenly shouted: "Hey, Shigong stop and stop."
Yue Yun was puzzled by her, leaned the car on the temporary parking space on the side, and turned around and asked, "Why are you in such a hurry?"
Miao Lili took the bag, opened the door and said, "I saw my classmates, master, you go back first, I'll walk around with my classmates first."
Ye Ci looked at her a little worried, and asked, "It's already dark this day, is it really safe for you to go out by yourself like this."
Miao Lili patted her chest and shouted: "What are you afraid of, just my arms and my legs, who will dare to take me in the past 20 years."
Ye Ci thought that she might not have seen her classmates during a holiday, and she missed her very much, seeing her say this, she still nodded, instructed her to be careful and safe, and let her leave.
Yue Yun didn't have any of Ye Ci's concerns, he was happy in his heart.
drove the car to the outside of Ye Ci's yard, and when he got down, he wanted to grab her hand, but Ye Ci didn't know whether he wanted to or unintentionally dodge it.
I saw an aunt in her fifties walking over and gave way sideways.
I didn't think that the aunt saw Ye Ci, and immediately shouted softly: "Yo Xiaoye."
Ye Ci looked at the aunt in front of him and nodded, and replied with a smile: "Teacher Li, you are back from your son."
The person who was called Teacher Li came over and took Ye Ci's hand, and sighed vigorously: "This matter at your house, I only found out when I came back today, but you are such a good girl, if you feel tired after work, come to the teacher's house for dinner."
Ye Ci shook his head and replied, "Teacher Li, thank you." I don't feel so tired now, I'm not too young, and there are some things that I have to take care of."
Teacher Li was even more distressed when he heard Ye Ci say this, took her hand, and said earnestly: "What a good boy who is sensible." Xiao Ye, that's right, in fact, my son, there is a classmate who just came back from the United States last week, and the family conditions are very good, so I like sensible children like you. It's definitely not easy for you to be in a girl's family now, and you have so many things on your body, or two days, I called him, you two will see each other, after all, you have to have someone to rely on sooner or later."
As soon as Yue Yun heard this, he immediately smelled it, and as soon as Teacher Li came back, he came to make a matchmaker for Ye Ci with an abacus.
How could he let her get her wish, coughed lightly, walked up and wrapped his arms around Ye Ci's shoulders, and said, "That aunt, thank you, Ye Ci and I are already together."
Ye Ci looked up at him helplessly, thinking that if Yue Yun could help her refuse, then she would simply not bother to deny it.
However, when Teacher Li saw Yue Yun's appearance in front of him clearly, his face suddenly became a little embarrassed, and he was embarrassed for a while, and suddenly took Ye Ci's hand, walked to the side and asked her quietly: "Xiao Ye, this man is your object?" It's not a liar, I think there are a lot of people who are good-looking, and they cheat the woman's family money on the grounds of talking to someone, you are so simple, but don't be deceived."
Yue Yun's ears are small.
What's more, Mr. Li's voice is not small, he stood aside and listened to the conversation between the two.
The deflated boss stood unhappily. It wasn't until Ye Ci finished dealing with Teacher Li that he turned around, still with an expression of "I'm injured" on his face.
Seeing him like this, Ye Ci also knew that he had heard what he had just said, took out the key, looked back at him while walking home, and comforted: "Don't think about it, Mr. Li and my mother have been colleagues for many years, and they just came back from maternity leave to take care of her daughter-in-law in the United States, and they are very good."
Yue Yun snorted and asked, "She's a good person?" If you are a good person, you can casually say that they are liars. This is not only a slander of my personality, but also a slander of the pure class feelings between us."
Ye Ci listened to his words, laughed out loud, and deliberately joked: "Pure class feelings? I don't remember that I, a little working man, are of the same class as you."
Yue Yun was even more unhappy, followed behind her, saw her open the door, grabbed the doorknob in her hand, and asked her with a serious face: "What do you mean!" Ye Ci, this has to be made clear, you are a working person, am I not, I am a poor child living in a small single room, how can I not be of the same class as you."
Ye Ci knew that Yue Yun was looking for fault, but she didn't know that it was shameless, and she was still eating her tofu inadvertently.
He turned his head and said: "Okay, okay, we are a class, and we have pure and indelible class feelings between us, so it's okay."
Yue Yun got cheap and behaved, shouting: "Then just now Mr. Li said that I was a liar, this is a spiritual blow to the working people!" I'm so angry that my chest hurts! ”
Ye Ci pulled his hand out of his hand, took off his shoes when he entered the door, hooked his body and replied: "Teacher Li is also for my good, after all, you are so good-looking, you don't look like my boyfriend's."
When Yue Yun heard this, he was happy, and he also took off his shoes after her buttocks, and asked, "Ye Ci, you're complimenting me for being good-looking, right?" Ye Ci, you admit that I look good, right?"
Ye Ci didn't know that Yue Yun was so able to think differently at all, standing in place for a while, he didn't know how to answer, he was stunned for a long time, and said in a particularly low voice: "You, you are indeed very good-looking, what's so strange about this."
The face was red, and I don't know if it was hot or for some other reason.
Yue Yun was also stunned when he got this sentence, he didn't expect Ye Ci to be so honest and sincere in saying such an ambiguous sentence, as if the two of them were old people who had reunited in a foreign country, and they couldn't tolerate the slightest hypocrisy.
Stretched out his hand and scratched his head, sat down on the chaise longue in front of him, coughed lightly, beckoned the preserved egg to come over, touched his furry ear, took out a piece of beef jerky from his pocket, and whispered: "Your mother can really praise people, she was embarrassed to praise me just now, really, she must like me, but she is embarrassed to say it." Come on, preserved eggs shout daddy".
How could the preserved egg really call his father, screaming loudly twice, and then symbolically shedding two wisps of saliva, Yue Yun felt that it was funny, and he no longer embarrassed it, and reached out and threw the beef jerky into its mouth.
Ye Ci was coming out with a tea tray at this moment, and there were two plates of yellow and green pastries on it.
Seeing the actions of these two "big men", he immediately asked softly: "Did you feed it the beef jerky you brought back from the hotel just now?"
Yue Yun looked up and saw her come out, and immediately nodded and replied: "Yes, I specially asked them what they wanted in the kitchen, and our son likes it very much."
Ye Ci glanced at him angrily, walked out of the house with the plate of tea set, and put the things on a small stone table in the garden, and there was a book on the table.
Yue Yun walked over and picked up the book and looked at it twice, feeling uninterested.
Ye Ci turned around and turned on the light in the yard and whispered to him: "Don't feed it this next time." The salt content of what people eat is too high, and preserved eggs will lose their hair when they eat them."
Yue Yun himself has never had a dog, so how did he know that he couldn't eat things with high salt content.
Hearing Ye Ci say this at this time, he immediately wilted, sat on the ground, hugged the preserved egg and howled: "Son, Dad is sorry for you, I ate this kind of thing for you, don't you want your mother and me."
The preserved egg seemed to be annoyed by his voice, and pushed him with a paw in disgust.
Where did Ye Ci meet such a faceless and skinless disciple, and he couldn't help but laugh for a while.
coughed lightly, reached out and took the teapot off the tea stove that had been hot, put the white pastry on the left in front of Yue Yun, and whispered: "Preserved eggs are not porcelain dolls, you will get sick if you eat something, just remember next time." This is the lotus cake I made myself, you taste it, I don't know if you like it or not, eat some as a meaning, after all, today is the 24th day of the sixth month of the lunar calendar, it is the birthday of the lotus flower god, so it should be a joy."
Where does Yue Yun care about the birthday of the lotus flower god, as soon as he heard that the thing was made by Ye Ci himself, he immediately reached out and put a piece into his mouth, and sighed in surprise: "It's so delicious, it's much better than the big ass chef in the old house, Ye Ci, you are really good, and you are also good at making pastries."
Ye Ci smiled and nodded, obviously very happy that Yue Yun could like it.
Raised his hand to pick up the teapot and shook it slightly for a while, poured the tea soup into the porcelain white teacup in front of Yue Yun, and replied softly: "Living in the city is actually a pleasure in suffering, with good water, there should always be a little thought, so that you can wait for good tea to come." Ordinary people live their lives, isn't that it."
Yue Yun listened to her words and laughed too.
Although he is not very elegant, he has followed Ning Zhiyuan for many years, and he has some experience in distinguishing the fragrance of tea.
At this time, seeing the tea soup in the teacup slowly filling, overflowing with a slightly drunken tea fragrance, I couldn't help but sigh: "Your water is the snow water stored at home."
Ye Ci looked at him with some surprise and asked, "Do you also know that winter water boils tea?" ”
Yue Yun grinned and replied to her: "Snow is the essence of the five grains, and it is the most secluded to make tea (1), right?" You little fresh, don't you like these tunes?"
Ye Ci pursed his lips and smiled a little embarrassedly, seeing that there was nothing good in his hand, he simply picked up the book on the side and gently knocked it on his head, pretending to be angry and scolding: "If you laugh at me again, I will let you drink tap water."
Yue Yun saw Ye Ci making fun of himself like this, not only did he not feel annoyed, but he was also very happy.
Suddenly felt that life was happy and happy, picked up the teacup and took a sip, especially prodigal admiration: "The green clothes hold the inkstone to urge the question paper, and the red sleeves add fragrance to accompany the reading." If I have another gold list title, then the day will be complete."
Ye Ci sat in place, just laughing. He poured himself a cup of tea, smelled the aroma of tea, drank a few sips in silence, lay on the stone table, pressed his left cheek against the table, and sighed: "So, the meaning of happiness is different for everyone." You see, you've helped me so much these days, and the things that I feel like I can't get in return, whether it's money, power, or whatever, may not be anything unusual in your eyes. But such a good cup of tea and a piece of snack are nothing to me, but in your opinion, it is already the perfection of the world. ”
Yue Yun didn't know why she suddenly said such a thing.
Turning his head to look at her, seeing the faint halo of her face in the moonlight and dim light, he couldn't help but lose his mind, stood up, quietly approached her, gently stroked her right cheek with his hand, saw that she didn't resist, he got closer, wanted to bow his head and kiss but was afraid that she wouldn't like it, and finally just stopped at the place where he could reach it, and whispered: "So, life is fair for everyone." I exchange what I can for what you can, and I don't owe anything at all. My dad used to tell me a thing that I didn't understand at the time, but now that I think about it, I think it's right, do you want to know what it is."
Ye Ci felt curious, but didn't move, just smiled and asked, "What did uncle say?" ”
Yue Yun also laughed and told her: "He said that once people are up and down in the world, they care about profits and losses, just like a fish that has landed and can no longer swim leisurely. No matter if you are doing nothing in your life, or you are happy, in the end, what you get is often not as real as the four words 'just like'."
