Chapter 46: Xu Yang's father
The slanting sun on the city draws a corner of mourning, and Shen Yuan is not a restored pond.
The spring waves under the sad bridge are green, and they were once shocked.
After moving around the house a few times, "Chengcheng, help me lie down for a while, I have been active for a long time today than yesterday." This old man Cao is really good, but he couldn't see him off when he left, so I'm embarrassed. ”
gently helped Xu Yang to lie down: "Sister Yang, aren't you still unable to walk, it's not the same as Cao Yu and I." Now you're the boss. ”
Xu Yang squinted at me with disgust: "You will laugh at me, am I willing to be the boss?" Why don't we change and I'll wait for you? ”
I smiled and didn't speak, and seeing that she was covered in sweat, I quickly ran to get a towel and gently wiped her forehead. He put the towel under her nose: "How's it going, it tastes good, right?" ”
"Go, don't wash it yet."
When I came back with a towel and wiped her neck again, Xu Yang also moved his head cooperatively, enjoying my service: "It's not bad to have a waiter." Alas, where did this Yunxi run again, if I don't see it for a while, I won't see anyone. I imagined her running around like her, and now I had horns on my stuffy head. ”
I could only hear a soft knock on the door, and I laughed, "I'm back." It's really 'say Cao Ying, Cao Ying will arrive', she must have heard you scolding her, and she will come back immediately. After finishing speaking, he stretched out his hand and put it on Sister Xu Yang's forehead, "Come, where is my horn?" ”
"Go, you hate it." Sister Yang smiled and opened my hand.
At this time, a person walked in, and we all thought it was Yunxi, and no one looked back.
But we heard a "bang" and the sound of something falling on the ground, and we were taken aback and turned around.
A slightly old and panicked voice shouted, "Xiaoyang, what's wrong with you?" How could it be like this? ”
Only then did I see that the person who came was not Yun Xi, but an elder. He is tall and slightly fat. He looks like he's in his forties or fifties. If it weren't for the sideburns, which were already a little gray, they would look younger. Thick eyebrows and big eyes, there are not many wrinkles on the face, just a panicked face.
Putting down the towel in her hand, before I could stand up, Sister Xu Yang suddenly shouted: "Dad, you're here." "I was taken aback, it turned out to be Sister Xu Yang's father. If you look closely, there are really similarities between the eyebrows and eyes of the two.
He stood up with his hands down and shouted, "Uncle Xu." ”
The old man didn't have time to pay any more attention to my greeting, so he threw himself in front of the bed, and the father and daughter hugged their heads and cried.
Standing on the side, I couldn't help but cry when I saw this situation.
After a while, Uncle Xu let go of his daughter, "Xiaoyang, what happened?" ”
"It was all me who accidentally had a little car accident. It's so worrying about you and your mother, is your mother's health okay? ”
"She's not old and has been taking medicine for a long time. What kind of car accident are you? How long have you been in bed? Does it matter now? The old man asked many questions one by one, and it seemed that he only hated himself for having a few mouths, and he couldn't immediately ask about his daughter's situation.
Seeing that the old father was in such a hurry, Sister Xu Yang sobbed softly again.
I had no choice but to say from the side: "Uncle Xu, Sister Yang's body has recovered a lot, and she will have a good chance, don't worry too much about it." ”
The old man, who had all his thoughts on his daughter, remembered that there was another person on the side, and turned around: "I'm sorry, young man, I was worried about Xiaoyang and forgot to say hello to you." My name is Xu Hanshui, and I am Xiaoyang's father. Alas, when people get old, their brains are not good. Thanks to you for taking care of Xiaoyang, are you? ”
Uncle Xu's eyes looked me up and down and looked very carefully. When he entered the door, I took care of Xu Yang clearly, and the two seemed very intimate, of course they felt that the relationship between this boy and his daughter was not ordinary, how could he not take a few more looks.
I'm -- I hesitated, and I really couldn't introduce myself.
"Dad, this is my younger brother and Qi Chen, named Yu Yicheng, who is going to college in Shuimu."
Sister Yang's introduction is not traced, but it can't explain anything at all. The old man looked at his daughter suspiciously, and then at me, with a question in his head. Hearing what my daughter said, I couldn't say anything more, in short, I didn't understand.
He had no choice but to stop asking and continue to care about his daughter's body.
I talked a few words with the two of them on the side, but I didn't know what to say, and I always felt that the old man looked at me strangely.
"Uncle Xu, it's rare for your father and daughter to meet, just talk more, and I'll go out and buy something to eat."
The old man was very polite and sent me to the door, and Xu Yang, who was lying on the bed, shouted: "Chengcheng, don't buy things that are too sweet and greasy, my dad doesn't dare to eat them." ”
I answered and went out the door.
When I got downstairs, Yun Xi came back: "Chengzi, do you want to go out and leave Yangyang alone at home?" ”
"What's not to worry about, Sister Yang's father is here."
"Oh, I said, then I'll go with you, I don't know what to say when I see the old man, it's weird to see other people's fathers and daughters." Not to mention, this Yunxi is also good at judging the situation.
"Yunxi, how is the investigation going for a while?"
"It's okay, you don't care about it here, don't worry about doing your business, I won't let you go bankrupt. By the way, the Mizuki store is going to open tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, you and your group of friends don't want to live in the store anymore, hurry up and find a place to live, don't affect my opening. ”
Yes, school is about to start, and I don't care about the uncivilized words that Yun Xi said about me and my brother. I have to think of a way, Sister Yang's research institute must also arrange for newcomers to live, what to do in the future, Uncle Xu will definitely have to live here for a while.
***
When I was carrying my things and being dragged back to the apartment by Yun Xi, Uncle Xu's eyes were full of incomprehension when he looked at me.
Yun Xi and I were busy with this meal, but I had prepared it in advance, and most of the finished things we bought, no matter what, we cooked the meal.
Although Uncle Xu is nothing, he still frowns involuntarily when he eats something, it seems that our skills still have to improve.
Sure enough, when it was time for dinner, no one said anything, so he automatically went down to the kitchen, refused my and Yunxi's request for help, and made a table of dishes by himself.
His craftsmanship is not good, but it is much higher than the two of us. To be honest, Sister Chen didn't eat well when she was there, only Sister Xu Yang and Yun Ruo's cooking skills were reasonable, to sum up, I almost didn't eat any good home-cooked meals during this summer vacation.
can't help but miss Xiao Wenwen's cooking, there is no one in this group of people who can compare to her.
After dinner, I considered giving the father and daughter a little more space, it was not appropriate for me to stay here any longer, and it was time to let go and talk to Cao Yu. A few days ago, although he had already told me about the software primary, he didn't have time to discuss it in detail, only knowing that he had been selected for the six, and the most cruel test was still to come.
***
After waiting for a long time at the door of the store, Cao Yu came back slowly.
I was taken aback when I saw it: "Brother Yu, why did you come back at this time?" ”
"What now, I can wait here for a long time, tell me the truth, what are you doing?"
"I didn't do anything, I just sent Yuping home." Cao Yu curtled and explained, "Why don't you make a phone call first." ”
"Hehe, I'm also afraid of affecting my brother's mood of falling in love." Seeing that he was embarrassed, he stopped teasing him after speaking, "Cao Yu, the store is about to open, and our brothers are afraid that there will be no place to live these days, so we have to think of a way." School starts in a few days, do you want to go home and have a look? ”
"Nope." Cao Yu shook his head, "I've spent a lot of money going back and forth for a while. So what to do, it will take two days for the dormitory building to open. ”
If he hadn't mentioned it, he would have really ignored it, and during this period of time, just Cao Bo went back and forth alone, plus buying medicinal materials, he must have spent a lot of money. If you don't use the money I left to Ruobing, you are using the money in Cao Yu's "small treasury".
But I didn't hear him say a word, what a good brother, Cao Yu bought a mobile phone during this period of time, and he had to eat and greet his girlfriend, and he must have spent a lot of money. How embarrassed is it that he has worked hard to catch up with the money, this favor must be repaid if he has the opportunity. But now I can't say how vulgar it seems to talk about money between friends.
I put this thought aside: "What do you think, what if it's open, you have to rearrange the dormitory." ”
"Oh, I forgot, so we can't live together?"
"I have a plan, just rent a house near the school, let's live together, what do you think?"
Cao Yu's eyes lit up, and he lowered his head again: "It's good, but you have to spend a lot of money, the houses around us are expensive." ”
smiled and scolded: "Stinky boy, I don't rent an office building, I can't spend a few dollars, it's convenient to do something then, if you need it, I can also go out to spend the night and create opportunities for you." Honestly, how's it going? ”
Cao Yu naturally understood the meaning of my words, and his face suddenly turned red: "Brother Yu, don't talk nonsense. ”
Cao Yu's answer reminded me of Dake, this guy only calls occasionally, and I don't know how the summer vacation went? If the same question is asked to him, this cheeky guy definitely does not have this demeanor, even if it is only one point, he can say ten points.
When it comes to Dake, I think when the money is enough to spend, the whole big house, everyone living together, it must be more interesting. A smile crossed my face at the thought of this.
Cao Yu probably misunderstood the meaning of my smile, blushed even more, and got up and went into the bathroom.
Knowing that he was shy, I shouted loudly: "Cao Yu, go out tomorrow to check and see if there is a suitable house nearby." Okay, I didn't say much about you, like a big girl, come out and tell me about the day I went to the competition.
Listening to Cao Yu's detailed introduction of the situation that day, according to his introduction, my software does not seem to be the most optimistic, and there is an obvious frustration in my heart, and it seems that I need to think about it and improve it if necessary. Anyway, Uncle Xu is here, and he won't go over at noon tomorrow, so think about it here and invite Cao Yu to have a meal.
***
After eating early in the morning, he drove Cao Yu out to look at the house and asked him to take Xue Yuping to the staff officer. I have to think about it, I thought about it for a long time last night, and I didn't find anything wrong with the software, but I thought I was perfect.
Cao Yu is gone, but my heart still can't be quiet. Let's go out for a walk and see how much money you have now, because your hopes of making a fortune this time may be in vain.
After careful calculation, I couldn't help but be surprised, no wonder my mother always thinks I spend lavishly. Before the holiday, the income of the coffee shop was about 100,000 yuan, which was basically the same as the expenditure, that is, if you don't do it now, you can only make a bunch of things, of course, because the money to buy a computer is from Yicheng Science and Trade, and now there is still a part of the surplus.
And due to the proper management, and the server industry is not bad in our city, during the period, Brother Shu once called me, saying that the summer is more than halfway, and the profit in the first half of the year will be about two or three hundred thousand, which is mainly to expand the operation, and the investment is more, otherwise it may be more.
I don't plan to move the money in either place, but I want to invest it and expand production.
The better thing is the funds from Lianyou, and the total income is about one million yuan. For a college student, it seems to be a large amount, but because I have no control over my usual expenses, the expenses are quite large, and the money to buy a car in Yicheng Science and Trade comes from this, so the money in my hand now adds up to less than 500,000.
It's enough to spend money, and so much money is gone before you know it. For the rest of this, it is naturally not enough to buy a favorite car, even if you buy a small house near the school, it is far away.
I feel that I am already good among my classmates, but after this calculation, it is nothing, and I can't mention it compared to the famous Zheng Tingzhou and Hang Haisheng. When I think of Hang Haisheng, I naturally think of Yi Xueqian, and my heart hurts for no reason.
It was a mess all morning, and nothing was done. It wasn't until a phone call from Cao Yu called me that my mind was awakened.
He and Xue Yuping saw two houses not far from our school, and they felt quite satisfied, and wanted me to take a look and make an idea together.
One of them is a small one-bedroom apartment, with a monthly rent of more than a thousand yuan. There is also a two-bedroom one-bedroom apartment, and the rent is much higher, although it is only a dozen square meters larger, but the rent has doubled.
The condition of both places is good, the house is relatively new, and it is quite clean. However, the position in the school is one left and one right, and the larger one is between the school and the research institute where Sister Xu Yang is located. If she passes the exams, she will still study here, and it will take a long time for her body to fully recover, and there will always be someone to help with some things.
After thinking about it again, although the rent is higher, it is more convenient to go to Sister Yang. What's more, although the money was more, it was also within my means, and after some bargaining, I paid a deposit and rented this house. Because Yunxi has already urged, the café is going to open, and time waits for no one, so we can't let our brothers sleep on the streets.
***
Hearing me say that he rented a two-bedroom house and no longer occupied the duty room of the café, Yun Xi's eyes widened: "You are too extravagant, two old men live in such a big house, what's the use of a living room?" It's also a bedroom, just leave one for me, and I can have a place to live when I'm not on duty. Can you bear to see that I have no place to live as a girl? ”
Yun Xi said and made a pitiful look.
Let her live, isn't that a time bomb by her side, but it is reasonable to listen to other people's requests, so I have to make a generous appearance and agree. Yun Xi is so good to me, such a beautiful bomb, if you want to explode, it will explode.
I nodded, and the excited Yunxi jumped up: "Declare in advance, I won't help you pay the rent." "Her idea came so fast that I hadn't even thought of it.
Just wanted to laugh at her, but she hurriedly said again: "You can't deduct my salary." ”
Hearing her say this, he wanted to tease her even more, so he groaned for a while, deliberately pretending to think. The anxious Yun Xi pulled my ears: "Stingy, do you agree?" ”
It's so unreasonable, I've become a stingy ghost. Throwing her hand and knocking off her claws, Sister Yang shouted in the back room, "What are you two sneaking around? Neither come to speak with me. ”
Yun Xi stuck out his tongue and whispered in my ear: "Seeing that you promised so happily, I will tell you a secret." ”
I grinned bitterly, when did I promise her, and I was still happy.
"I'll be back from grocery shopping in a while, you have to be careful of this old man, he has thoughts about you." After speaking, he pushed me into Sister Xu Yang's bedroom.
I don't understand what Yun Xi said, and I don't know what Uncle Xu thinks about me. When I talked to Xu Yang, I naturally mentioned him more.
"Didn't scare my dad yesterday."
"No, I think my uncle is very good, and he cares about you a lot."
"yes. They only had me when they were in their thirties, and naturally they loved me very much, and I was a famous pearl in my palm since I was a child. They have been away from home for a long time, and now that something has happened, can they not worry? ”
I nodded, as parents, who doesn't love their children, Sister Xu Yang had a car accident, it must have frightened them, but fortunately it's okay now, otherwise the two old people don't know what it will be like.
"Sister Yang, what does my uncle do?"
"He, he used to be the editor-in-chief of a big magazine, and after he retired, he became an honorary consultant, and he is still busy, running outside all year round, and his mother is at home, and his health is not good, which is too worrying. But let my dad be idle, and he can't stay, as long as he doesn't go out for a few days, he will get sick. Hey, there's no way. ”
"It's really hard enough for the two old people, you still have to participate in the work to find a place to settle down, and take the second old man over."
"Do you think I haven't thought about it, but it's not like I can't settle down now."
As he was talking, Uncle Xu came back, went into the house to take a look at his daughter, and saw that although I spoke politely, I could feel that I was still relatively cold. It seems that I am not a popular person for this old man. This is what Yun Xi said about having thoughts about me? The old man is afraid that his beautiful daughter will be deceived? Isn't it, am I that much like a bad person?
