Chapter 36: The Sudden Visit of a Middle-Aged Woman
A week has passed, Zhong's mother's body has been completely healed, and Gu Xi sighed silently while helping her fold the little green vegetables, because she will never be able to eat Uncle Tan's cooking in the future.
After folding the dish, she fell on the sofa, just lay down and took out her mobile phone, she heard a doorbell ringing outside the door, Zhong's mother thought that Mr. Tan forgot to bring the key when he went out, wiped the water on his hands, and said while walking: "Miss, Mr. Tan is generally back, aren't you the happiest?" ”
"How could Uncle Tan forget the key, besides, he has been running to the police station recently and has never come back at noon."
Zhong's mother nodded and felt that what the eldest lady said seemed to be very reasonable, walked to the door and picked up the video walkie-talkie, and really saw a middle-aged woman with a gentle temperament standing outside the door, "Madam, which one are you looking for?" ”
"May I ask Tan Xiyao, does Mr. Tan live here?" She spoke very kindly and politely.
Mother Zhong turned her head to the eldest lady and asked loudly, "Is it a woman looking for Mr. Tan?" ”
Woman? In an instant, Gu Xi was full of vigilance, a spirit bounced up from the sofa, she walked over and took the microphone of the video walkie-talkie from Zhong's mother, and just wanted to open her mouth to refuse her to come in, she heard the middle-aged woman say again anxiously: "I am Tan Xiyao's mother." ”
Gu Xi blinked and looked at the woman on the screen seriously, with medium-length black hair, and an off-white professional suit with a cut waist, it turned out that this was Uncle Tan's mother, she was really temperamental! She hurriedly straightened her clothes and hair, took a deep breath, opened the door, and stood at the door with a smile, "Hello, aunt!" ”
As soon as Li Minyun came in, she saw a young girl, who looked very pretty when she smiled, and she smiled back, "Are you?" ”
"My name is Gu Xi, and I am the sister of Uncle Tan's good friend."
Li Minyun didn't seem to reflect the relationship between them, how could a friend's sister call an elder's friend uncle, and after a pause, he smiled and said, "Oh, Xiyao, is he at home now?" ”
"Auntie, sit in the living room and wait for a while, he has gone to the police station, and I will call him now to say that you are here."
Li Minyun seemed a little embarrassed, and hurriedly stopped Gu Xi, "Don't fight, I'll wait here for him to come back." ”
"It's possible to wait until the evening."
"That's not going to work...... she said nervously, and after thinking about it, her eyes turned a little red.
"Aunt......" Gu Xi was a little overwhelmed by this scene.
"It's fine." Li Minyun adjusted her feelings, "Xixi, aunt, please call Xi Yao for any reason, except don't mention me, you have to call him back quickly." ”
"Okay, aunt, don't worry, I'll call Uncle Tan right away." Although she didn't know what was going on, she seemed to have smelled the smell of "family conflict", a feeling she was all too familiar with.
