CHAPTER XIII
It is said that two months before the sports festival, Zhou Qin was still on the way to find Xiao Su.
Arriving in Wuxi too early, Zhou Qin found it difficult to find enthusiastic people to show him the way, and asked questions as he walked, either being rejected outright, ignored, or others could not understand his Mandarin...... No way! Lao Tzu's Mandarin is over the third level, right? How dare you not understand! Lao Tzu still doesn't understand your Xipu dialect (Mandarin with a Wuxi accent)! How low is the popularity of Mandarin here!
He suddenly missed Sichuan, which was almost the same as Mandarin except for the change in tone, and prayed that God would give him a fellow countryman!
Stumbled all the way to the bus, arrived at the bus station, and then bought tickets and got on the bus in a daze, there are often passengers who get off the bus halfway, so every time Zhou Qin stops the car, he has to ask the people next to him if he is where he wants to go, and the neighbors are annoyed by him, and finally can't help but say that he will definitely call him when he arrives, and Zhou Qin stopped.
After getting out of the car, he stood on the side of the road again and froze, should this Nima go left, right or down?!
It looks like it's already like a country town, and I hope people here can really understand Mandarin!
Younger people should be able to understand Mandarin better, so Zhou Qin picked a little girl to ask for directions, but the little girl spoke fluent and authentic local Wuxi dialect, and Zhou Qin was stunned.
Zhou Qin had no choice but to show the little girl the address of Xiao Su's house written on the paper, and the little girl looked at it and shook her head to say that she didn't know.
Zhou Qin had no choice but to take this piece of paper to show people everywhere, not to worry about which way to go, after asking for more than ten minutes, before Zhou Qin's patience ran out, finally a vegetable seller couldn't stand it, threw down the stall and came over to him and said, "Young man, you have to go that way!" "Uncle refers to the road down.
Finally someone who can speak Mandarin! Although the local accent is strong, that's not the point, the point is that this guy not only knows Mandarin but also knows where he's going!
Zhou Qin almost didn't hug his uncle and kiss him wildly, what a relative!
"You go forward and turn right, right, right, left, right, right, left, right, ......"
The uncle tirelessly talked about the route, Zhou Qin finally saw the legendary god guiding the way, and he was confused when he heard it, so he had to quickly take out a pen and let the uncle repeat it several times, and a crooked road map finally appeared on the paper.
At the end, the uncle added: "I told you when I saw that you really couldn't find the way." β
Zhou Qinhan, can't even the uncle look at it......
However, as long as he could find the way, Zhou Qin happily ran to the right path, thinking excitedly about how she would react when she saw Xiao Su, and how she would behave.
He would have proudly said to her, "You see, I can find you alone and without knowing anyone!" Awesome! β
Or like in the TV series, he looked at Xiao Su who was only a few steps away, and after the two looked at each other for a few seconds, he smiled and said, "Look, I still found you." Then Xiao Su threw herself into his arms with emotion......
However, the latter's imagination made him tremble, goosebumps rose all over, forget it, it's still the first one......
However, his search for the missing person was obviously not as smooth as he imagined, because there were too many forks in the road, and some even had to cross the river and finally reach the destination after half a day.
When he saw the three-story building of Xiao Su's house from a distance, Zhou Qin began to adjust his breathing and facial expressions, trying to make himself look relaxed and less dusty, and then bravely went up and knocked on the door, but there was no response? Knock again, but there is still no response!
The neighbor's child poked his head out from the second floor: "Don't knock again!" There is no one in their house! β
This kid is actually Mandarin, it seems that the school's Mandarin education is very good! Education is to start with a baby! Zhou Qin asked, "Then where did they go?" β
"I guess I'm going to a fish farm on the street." After speaking, he closed the window with a "bang-" sound, as if he didn't want to say more to him.
Zhou Qinmo, don't say the specific location, at least give a direction, this Nima is getting dark, where is he going to find this Shenma Yuzhuang!! Originally, he had walked so many roads during the day, and Zhou Qin was about to go crazy!
But even if it's crazy, it's useless, let's go to that fish village obediently.
Dragging his luggage to find a direction casually, Zhou Qin began to look for this "mysterious" fish village, half an hour later, Zhou Qin's eyes lit up, isn't this a fish village? And there are many people sitting inside eating, maybe Xiao Su is inside, I hope Xiao Su is really inside!
As soon as he walked into the restaurant, the waiter greeted him and asked him what he wanted to eat, Zhou Qin said that he was looking for someone, and after looking around the first floor, there was no shadow of Xiao Su, so he asked if there was a second floor, and the waiter nodded and asked him who he was looking for.
Zhou Qin reported Xiao Su's name, and the waiter said that the family seemed to be surnamed Xiao, so he took him to the second floor.
Xiao Su faced the window, raised the chopsticks and did not move, Xiao's mother said, "Susu, eat a little bit, it's been a day." β
Xiao Su shook his head, simply put down his chopsticks and said, "I can't eat, I want to go out and stand for a while, you can eat first." After speaking, he walked outside, Xiao's father and Xiao's mother sighed helplessly, this child has kissed her grandfather since she was a child, and it is normal to not be able to accept this fact for a while, but it is not good to be so old without eating!
Xiao Su knew that her parents were worried about her, but she really had no appetite for food, and she always remembered that her grandfather served her vegetables when she was at home, and she still remembered that when she was a child, her grandfather lied to her that there was something behind her, so she really turned around to look, and her grandfather took advantage of her inattention to add vegetables to her bowl, so several times she couldn't help staring at her bowl and said, "Why can't you finish this meal today?" Grandpa laughed and told her the truth.
As soon as she walked to the door, she bumped into the waiter, Xiao Su hurriedly said sorry, but as soon as the words fell, she saw Zhou Qin behind the waiter!
Xiao Su's eyes widened, how could he come? How did he find here? When did he come?
As if he had found his relatives, Zhou Qin was so excited that he threw down the suitcase in his hand, and directly rushed over and hugged Xiao Su, and said, "Relatives!" I've finally found you! Do you know how much I've suffered along the way! It's the first time I've been out of the house when I'm so big! And it's a person! This is the first time I dedicate it to you! I don't know anyone here, you have no relatives, you must be responsible for me! β
was so affectionate that Zhou Qin himself was almost moved to cry by himself.
Xiao Su twitched the corners of his mouth, the initial emotion was offset by his actions, in front of the public, his one-meter-eight man was holding her with one-meter-six, not very good! And her parents were sitting inside watching them!
So he tried to push him and said, "Well, my family is watching us inside......"
Zhou Qin raised his head, and sure enough, the whole room looked at them, embarrassedly "hehe" twice, let go of Xiao Su, and then said, "Ahem, I'm a little excited." β
Xiao Su looked back at the curious family members, especially Xiao's father and Xiao's mother, and said helplessly: "If you haven't eaten yet, come in and eat together." "I'm here, I can't kick him out, and I always have to explain the identity of this uninvited guest to my parents.
Zhou Qin blurted out: "This is to see your parents?" β
Xiao Su was stunned for a moment, and Zhou Qin twisted and said, "Okay, I'll see you when I see it!" β
Xiao Su stroked her forehead, when did this person change sex with her? Although he used to see him playing nonsense to others, he always stayed away from her, and said: "I treat you as a friend!" β
Xiao Su added a bench next to his seat, trying to use his body to separate Xiao's father and Xiao's mother from the unscrupulous and constantly inquiring eyes, Zhou Qin didn't mind at all, and after a brief greeting to a table of people, he began to feast on the food on the table.
Xiao Su: Can you be more reserved? Can you be reserved! It's all my family! Don't you feel the slightest bit uncomfortable?
Zhou Qin: Why doesn't Xiao Su eat it? Have you already eaten it? But her bowl is so clean, and the dishes in front of her don't seem to have been touched, it seems that she is sad and over-eating. Then I must eat more to have the strength to comfort her, well, that's it!
Dad Xiao: The young man is quite unseen, and his appetite is also good, it is not easy to find this place alone, it seems that he is very interested in our Su Su!
Xiao's mother: Tall and handsome, and good at eating, although he didn't come back with our Su Su, he finally came, and it's not easy for a foreigner to find this place alone! If I get married in the future, the tall genes will definitely be passed on to my grandson, haha!
The rest: This boy is Su Su's boyfriend? Haven't you heard of Su Su having a boyfriend? But the length is not bad, but I don't know where I am from, what education, and what I am doing now.
Zhou Qin, who had been hungry for nearly a day and only relied on a loaf of bread and two bottles of mineral water to survive until now, finally filled his stomach half full, and then turned his head and asked Xiao Su: "Why don't you eat?" β
Xiao Su shook his head: "I'm not hungry. β
Zhou Qin glanced at the expressions of Xiao's father and Xiao's mother, and said, "Eat some radish, supplement vitamins, and meat, replenish physical strength......"
Zhou Qin said while putting vegetables into Xiao Su's bowl, Xiao Su looked at the dishes in the bowl in embarrassment, she didn't want to eat it, but Zhou Qin was rare to be so good to her and came all the way to find her, and it was not easy to brush his mind......
"Let's have a bit." Zhou Qin stared at her with burning eyes.
Xiao Su picked up the chopsticks and poked the carrots in the bowl, stupid Zhou Qin, who likes to eat carrots, people obviously told you that they like to eat potatoes! Then he picked up a slice of carrot and put it in his mouth, chewing it tastelessly.
Immediately after, Zhou Qin put potato wedges into her bowl.
Xiao's father and Xiao's mother watched Xiao Su eat, thinking that she really had a boyfriend and forgot her father, how many times they persuaded her was useless, this young man who just came made her eat obediently with two words!
Under Zhou Qin's constant urging, Xiao Su still ate some food, Xiao's father and Xiao's mother finally let go, and kept asking him this and that on the way home, fortunately, Xiao's father and Xiao's mother can speak Mandarin.
Xiao's mother asked, "Young man, what did you say your name was just now?" β
"Zhou Qin. Week. Kindness. Come to the week, admiration for the admiration. β
Dad Xiao immediately answered: "Zhou. Kindness. Come on! I want Premier Zhou back thenβ"
was immediately interrupted by Xiao's mother: "Who wants you to say Premier Zhou!" You've gone astray! Xiao's father was silent, the corners of Zhou Qin and Xiao Su's mouths twitched, and Xiao's mother continued, "Zhou Qin, you are classmates with our Su Su?" β
"Well, different classes, but often together."
"Then you are ...... with our family."
Xiao Su stared at Zhou Qin, Zhou Qin glanced at the nervous Xiao Su and Xiao Dad and Xiao Mom who were full of expectations, and said with a smile: "Sorry I forgot to say before, I am Xiao Su's boyfriend, haha." β
He said it with a relaxed look, Xiao Su almost didn't block his throat in one breath, when did she say that they were boyfriend and girlfriend? It was true that she liked him, but why didn't he consult her before he said that?
The world is changing too fast, and she is somewhat accepting of incompetence.
Dad Xiao nodded with satisfaction and asked, "The young man is quite tall, how many meters is he?" β
Zhou Qin scratched his head and confessed embarrassedly: "181." β
Xiao's mother then asked, "How many years and months are you from?" β
Xiao Su: "Mom-"
In short, along the way, Xiao's father and Xiao's mother know almost everything about Zhou Qin himself and Zhou Qin's family, and even what kind of tea Zhou Qin's father likes to drink and what songs Zhou Qin's mother likes to listen to.
Has anyone asked her opinion!!
In fact, it really didn't occur to anyone to ask her opinion......
Xiao's father asked the key question: "You are from Sichuan, so where do you want to develop after graduation?" β
Zhou Qin was stunned, he really hadn't thought about this question, when he came, he thought that Xiao's father and Xiao's mother would ask him all kinds of questions, such as where he lived, how old he was, and so on, so he didn't think about where he would develop this kind of thing in the future.
This is really hard to answer, generally speaking, the girl's parents want their children to stay and work, so most parents like local sons-in-law, if you want to satisfy Xiao's father and Xiao's mother, Zhou Qin has to say: "It must be the best with Xiao Su!" β
But it seemed very perfunctory to say this, because he hadn't seriously considered this issue at all, and Zhou Qin's parents also wanted him to stay in Sichuan, although they didn't say it explicitly, but it could be seen from the number of times they summoned Zhou Qin home that they were reluctant to let Zhou Qin go too far away from them.
From his personal point of view, he doesn't care, it would be good if he could stay in such a familiar place as Sichuan, but if he wants to work in other places for some reason, he has no opinion.
From this point of view, it is the choice of leaning towards his parents or Xiao Su's parents.
Xiao Su saw that Zhou Qin opened his mouth and pondered for a long time without speaking, knowing that he had his difficulties, and his parents were still staring at him with burning eyes, so he relieved himself and said, "Are you so anxious to marry me?" I haven't even reached the time to talk about marriage with him. β
Seeing Xiao Su's unhappy expression, Xiao's mother hurriedly stopped: "Okay, go home first, go home first." β
Xiao Su turned his head to look at Zhou Qin, who still hadn't spoken, his expression was slightly uncomfortable, so he was still him, and he came here just because she told him before she left that she wanted her grandfather to see her boyfriend, not that he really wanted to be her boyfriend.
So she thinks too much, Zhou Qin is still the same Zhou Qin before, and there is no change.
Zhou Qinwu was entangled with himself, is it better to stay in Sichuan? Or is it better to come to Jiangsu? Is it to persuade my parents to let me come to Jiangsu? Or persuade Xiao's father and Xiao's mother to let Xiao Su come to Sichuan?
What an esoteric question!
Although Zhou Qin and Xiao Su walked side by side, they didn't know each other.
It's already spring, but the wind still carries the temperature of winter, isn't it cold in spring? Why did Xiao Su think she should wear an extra coat, she couldn't wear so thin as before.
When I arrived at Xiao Su's house, after washing, Zhou Qin accompanied Xiao Su's family to watch TV, Xiao Dad watched the news with relish and made two comments from time to time, Xiao Ma's mother leaned on one end of the sofa and watched a movie with her mobile phone, Xiao Su sat on another sofa and pressed her mobile phone sullenly, Zhou Qin played with a tablet next to Xiao Su nest in the sofa, and glanced at the news on TV from time to time with two comments from Xiao Dad.
Xiao Su occasionally glanced at Zhou Qin, why doesn't this person speak, doesn't he usually talk a lot?
Zhou Qin is still staring at his mobile phone, just like he never listens to lectures in class, it stands to reason that a normal boy will only be so "attentive" when he looks at girls, but after Xiao Su's investigation for three years, Zhou Qin is by no means looking at anything about girls.
Is he really a ...... gγaγyοΌοΌ
Xiao Su remembered that once Zhou Qin was holding Cai Hefeng's arm on the road, and she happened to see it behind her, could it be true? Even buy Karma!
Zhou Qin spoke up at this time: "You-what kind of eyes are you?" What does it mean to look sympathetic?
Xiao Su came back to his senses: "Is there one?" No......"
Xiao's father and Xiao's mother both looked at them, Xiao Su had no choice but to stand up and say, "You come out with me, I have something to tell you." β
Going out for a one-on-one conversation? I'm going out to talk alone~ I'm going to go out and talk alone! Xiao's father and Xiao's mother's eyes flashed with a mysterious light called "gossip".
Xiao Su looked at his parents speechlessly, but he didn't expect Zhou Qin to stand up suddenly and say, "You, you, you-you want to talk to me alone~alone~?" β
Zhou Qin deliberately said the word "alone" in a surprised and ambiguous way, what would Xiao's father and Xiao's mother think, Xiao Su resisted the urge to roll his eyes, so much, so much, so much want to kick this bastard out! Ahh!!hhhhh
But fortunately, Zhou Qin quickly grabbed the door before Xiao Su's eye knife turned into a real hand knife, Xiao Su glanced back at his parents, signaled that he was going out, and then followed.
Xiao's father and Xiao's mother glanced at each other, and Xiao's mother immediately turned over from the end of the sofa and sat up, and communicated with Xiao's father with her eyes: Do you want to go out with you?
Dad Xiao shook his head: People have conflicts in love to solve, what did you listen to in the past?
Xiao's mother: Lonely men and widows, stay together in the middle of the night, don't you think we need to pay attention?
Dad Xiao glanced at the clock above the TV: It's not half past seven yet, where is it midnight? Besides, those two are on the top of the building, what can they do?
Xiao's mother: That's what I said.
So Xiao's mother lay down again and continued to watch the movie.
Zhou Qin leaned on the railing on the roof of the building and looked down, took a deep breath and said, "Whew-the air in the countryside is good!" To be honest, it's the first time in my life that I've actually lived in the country! β
Xiao Su followed and leaned on the railing, and said casually: "Children who grew up in the city, your lungs are full of dust!" β
"Not really, hey!" Zhou Qin turned his head amusedly, "There are occasionally places with good greenery and good air in the city, like the Qingcheng Mountain and Xishan Snow Ridge that I mentioned to you before." β
"That's not in the city anymore, okay?"
"Okay, so what do you want to say when you come out with me?"
Xiao Su was silent for a long time, as if she had nothing to say, she just didn't want to let the embarrassing atmosphere at that time continue, Zhou Qin waited for a long time and didn't make a sound: "Hey, hey, speak!" β
"Hey, why didn't you talk so much in there just now? Silent as a dog. β
Zhou Qin Khan, what do you mean by "silent as a dog"? So he retorted: "Can you change the analogy?" It's nothing to do with dogs......"
Friends? Speaking of this, Xiao Su remembered what happened on the road, so he asked, "Why did you tell my parents that you were my boyfriend?" β
"Didn't you say you wanted your grandpa to see your boyfriend? Otherwise, what am I going to do? β
Sure enough, just because of what she said before leaving, this bastard will either agree to be her boyfriend, or simply don't come! Xiao Su calmed down for a while, and then said, "Then you go with me tomorrow to pay a visit to grandpa, and then go back." β
"Huh?" Chase him away?! He finally found this place! The wind and dust came, but the ass was still hot and wanted to drive him away? There's no humanity anymore!
Zhou Qin immediately showed Xiao Su a pitiful and complaining expression, and exaggeratedly dipped his fingers on his face and pretended to be tears, Xiao Su stroked his forehead: "Are you disgusting......"
"No disgusting, no disgusting." Zhou Qin leaned towards Xiao Su vigorously, "Don't drive me away, it's not easy for people to find here~"
"Then why are you staying here? What's the use? β
"Am I not your boyfriend? Of course, I want to stay here to spend the sad time with you! He couldn't stand such a literary statement.
What boyfriend, it's not all fake, don't want her to soften her heart because of such a casual sentence!
So Xiao Su said: "Come less, you are not my boyfriend!" She looked at the dark sky, the moon was dim and couldn't see clearly, there were only a few stars, Xiao Su lowered her head and slowly repeated, "You're not my boyfriend......"
Zhou Qin suddenly hugged Xiao Su's shoulder: "Hey, what are you talking about?" Didn't you confess to me? Why am I not your boyfriend anymore. β
Xiao Su was caught off guard by him, his eyes widened suddenly, and he said, "You, what are you doing?" β
"Why don't you do it?"
Xiao Su took a deep breath and plucked up the courage to say, "It's true that I like you, but don't you dislike me?" Why is this all of a sudden? I know you're going to say we're friends again! But since you're just a friend, please mind yourself and don't care about me so much, I don't want to misunderstand that you mean something to me. β
Zhou Qin slowly let go of her, Xiao Su felt that her heart was getting colder inch by inch, and sure enough, Zhou Qin still didn't like her.
"We've known each other for over three years, haven't we? When we first met, it was at an event organized by the Ministry of Science and Technology at that time. Zhou Qin said, Xiao Su nodded.
"Your ability to adapt on the spot is really good, much smarter than the male host, but as soon as I praised you in my heart, you fell on me, and almost knocked me away, you know? You're such a small person, you can't tell you're still a heavyweight! β
Is this Nima a compliment? Xiao Su kicked Zhou Qin.
"I never paid attention to the class together, and that's how we got to know each other. You're a good girl, smart, pretty, cute, honest, tolerant, and I already knew you liked me, but I just kept pretending I didn't know. β
"Why pretend you don't know!" Xiao Su glared at him and said that she was a good girl and issued a good person card?
"Don't our dormitory buddies like you? I can't rob him, so of course I'll just be silent and see how you break it. β
"Didn't I tell him directly afterwards that I didn't like him? Aren't you still moving? "Keep staring.
"Later, there have been new boys pursuing you, although you still rejected them one by one, but I think you should actually deserve better, so I keep telling you that we are friends. Moreover, I'm a very sullen person, you know (Xiao Su: You are also sullen? It's almost time to get the nickname 'Flower Butterfly'! How can you say something like 'hey I like you' to a girl so directly, so I've been waiting for you to say it first! β
Xiao Su: "Then you're really sullen." β
Zhou Qin was embarrassed to look at the faces of the people around him, and continued: "You suddenly confessed to me that night, I haven't reacted yet, and by the time I react, you have already left." I've never been out alone, if it weren't for Cai Hefeng's idiot's radical method, I really wouldn't dare to come to you alone, you must know that the outside world is very terrifying! I'm so innocent and cute, maybe a lot of bad guys will target me! β
Why are you talking and starting to deviate again...... Xiao Su made up her mind and was not moved at all: "So? β
"So? So-" Xiao Su stared nervously at Zhou Qin's mouth, Zhou Qin was too nervous to look at Xiao Su, and said, "I like you!" β
I, rejoice, rejoice, you!
Oh, my God! How long had she been waiting for this sentence? Three years, three years! This bastard is only saying it now! She has been thinking crankily for three years and worrying for three years!
After calming down a little, Xiao Su said, "That's it?" β
"Isn't that so?"
"Think about it."
ββ¦β¦οΌβ
"Think about it again - men, pots, friends!" Xiao Su deliberately emphasized the last three words.
Zhou Qin suddenly realized: "Oh oh oh! By the way, ahem-Xiao Su, would you like to be my girlfriend? From now on, they will only code with me, they will only hold hands with me, and they will only do everything with me. β
Xiao Su smiled and nodded: "Well, I do!" β
Although the first item is a bit weird for the public, ordinary people who will say that they want to code together when they confess, but for people like them can also understand it!
Zhou Qin was no longer nervous, and hugged Xiao Su head-on, but Xiao Su did not resist and obediently fell into Zhou Qin's arms.
Xiao Su showed half of her face and looked at the sky, the moon seemed to be clearer, it looked rounder, and the wind on her body felt so comfortable, was it because the temperature on Zhou Qin's body had reached her?
