Seeing this scene, Meng Ruoyu hurriedly got up: "This is my brother and sister." “

"No, no, no, she's my eldest sister." Tan Jingting hurriedly defended.

"Oh, it turned out to be the eldest sister, quick, please sit down, Jing Ting, why are you still stunned, pour tea." Meng Ruoyu hurriedly reminded Tan Jingting, who was in a daze on the side.

Tan Jingting reacted at this time and went to take the teacup and pour water.

"No, sir, I'm not thirsty, Jing Ting, don't be busy, I'll come by myself." Seeing that Tan Jingting was about to pour water for herself, Osmanthus quickly stood up and grabbed the teacup in Tan Jingting's hand.

During the altercation, the teacup fell to the ground and shattered.

Osmanthus became nervous: "Jing Ting, I didn't mean to, I ......"

"It's okay, big sister, it's just a teacup. Orderly. Meng Ruoyu hurriedly comforted the osmanthus.

"Here."

"Clean up the ground."

"Yes."

"I'll clean it up myself."

Osmanthus walked over tremblingly, wanting to bend down to pick up the fragments on the ground, but was grabbed by Tan Jingting.

"Osmanthus, it's not your job, go, I'll take you home."

Tan Jingting took Wu Guihua's hand and walked out of the office.

As soon as she walked into Tan Jingting's dormitory, Osmanthus smelled the smell of smoke all over the room, and hurriedly opened the window and looked around, the whole room was messy, cigarette butts were everywhere, the table was full of dust, there were dishes and chopsticks in the basin, on the bed, on the stool, clothes, and socks were thrown everywhere. Osmanthus hurriedly put down the burden on his hand and started to clean it up.

"You can stay here first." Tan Jingting said expressionlessly.

"What about you? Where do you live? Osmanthus stopped what she was doing, raised her head, and looked at Tan Jingting in surprise.

"I have a camp bed in my office, and I stay there at night. I'll ask the orderlies to bring some daily necessities. “

Tan Jingting threw down this sentence, and turned around and walked out of the dormitory.

Wu Guihua stood there alone. She sighed, continued to tidy up the house, and when she was wiping the desk, she saw a photo of Tan Jingting and a beautiful woman intimately, so she picked up the photo and looked at it carefully, tears flowed silently.

Suddenly, someone was knocking on the door, Osmanthus hurriedly wiped away her tears, opened the door, and came in the orderly who brought her to Tan Jingting just now.

"Eldest sister, this is the daily necessities that our deputy department asked me to send you, you take them first, if there is anything missing, tell me, and I will bring it to you later." The orderly brought a large bag of daily necessities.

"It's too much trouble for you, I think it's almost there. Don't be busy. "Osmanthus is very unhappy.

"You are the eldest sister of our deputy department, don't be polite. If it's okay, I'll go first. ”

"Hey." Osmanthus suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly called the orderly: "This little brother, I want to ask you, who is the woman in this photo?" “

Osmanthus handed the picture to the orderly.

"Oh, this is the wife of our deputy department, it's a pity that she died in childbirth, and she died before the deputy department came to Chongqing, hey, it's really a shame."

"Do you have any other women in your deputy office now?" Osmanthus hurriedly asked.

The orderly shook his head: "Our deputy department has been single since the death of our wife. I've never seen him have a relationship with any woman, and you're his only female relative. “

"Oh, thank you, little brother." Osmanthus breathed a sigh of relief.

"You're welcome, eldest sister, okay, then I won't bother, I'm leaving."

Osmanthus wiped the photos clean, put them in the original position of the desk, and then sorted out the things brought by the orderlies one by one, and after Osmanthus took care of them, the room became clean and tidy, full of life.

For several days, Tan Jingting lived in the office, which made Meng Ruoyu feel a little uncomfortable, and hurriedly found the director of general affairs.

"Lao Lu, do you still have a two-bedroom dormitory there, you see, as soon as our eldest sister of Deputy Director Tan comes, he can only live in the office, which is too unkind."

As soon as Meng Ruoyu spoke, Lao Lu, the director of general affairs, naturally immediately understood.

"Yes, yes, the original Deputy Director Luo's dormitory is a two-bedroom apartment, just diagonally opposite Deputy Director Tan, just a dozen steps away, after he was transferred, the dormitory has been idle, or let Deputy Director Tan move over."

"Okay, give me the key to that two-bedroom apartment."

"I'll bring it to you."

Lao Lu hurriedly returned to the office, and after a while, he took the key to the room and handed it to Meng Ruoyu.

Meng Ruoyu took the key and found Tan Jingting.

"Brother, you really take this place as your home now, how can you go on like this, give, I asked Lao Lu to find you a two-bedroom house, this is the key, you take it."

"Meng, it's okay, I can make do anywhere. I don't need to. ”

Tan Jingting knew that Meng Ruoyu had good intentions, but his hospitality made him a little embarrassed, after all, there was no real name between him and Osmanthus, and two lonely men and widows lived in the same house, which was somewhat embarrassing.

"Hey, you don't need it, and your eldest sister doesn't need it? She came all the way to you, you can't leave home, let your eldest sister stay at home alone every day? Meng Ruoyu stuffed the key into Tan Jingting's hand: "Anyway, you are suspended from work now for reflection, go, go home and tidy up, and move over." ”

Tan Jingting saw that it was difficult to resist, so he had to accept the key: "Thank you, Meng, you are really thoughtful." ”

"It's a trivial matter, and you don't have to worry about it. Go ahead. Meng Ruoyu patted Tan Jingting's shoulder.

Tan Jingting returned to the dormitory, opened the door and saw that the original messy room was now bright and tidy.

Seeing that Tan Jingting was back, Osmanthus hurriedly stood up: "Jingting, you're back, I'll cook for you right away." ”

"No need, Osmanthus, you tidy up, Meng will let us move to the two-bedroom apartment diagonally opposite."

"Moving?" Osmanthus was stunned.

"Don't ask so much, just come with me."

Tan Jingting took the osmanthus to the dormitory of the former Deputy Director Luo diagonally opposite, opened the door, and it was very bright inside.

"It's so big here. There are also two rooms. "Osmanthus turned back and forth, very excited.

"Osmanthus, this is specially arranged for you and me by Meng Division, so let's do it, you live in the inner room, and I live in the outer room." Tan Jingting assigned the house first.

"Meng is really a good person, and he thinks really thoughtfully." Osmanthus touched the furniture, and her heart blossomed.

"Okay, Osmanthus, you hurry up and pack up and move all your things."

"Hey, I'll go." Osmanthus was overjoyed and hurriedly went to move things.

Looking at the back of Osmanthus Lezizi, Tan Jingting shook his head helplessly.

Since the osmanthus has lived in, Tan Jingting's home has the taste of home, osmanthus always takes care of everything in order, the home is not only bright and clean, but also at the bedside, on the desk, on the dining table, next to the cupboard, in the corner, there are flowers and plants, inadvertently, looking up, there is a touch of green, a wisp of freshness, a wisp of warmth.

And the osmanthus changes the method every day and cooks different Cantonese dishes for Tan Jingting to eat, which makes Tan Jingting, who has not tasted the taste of his hometown for many years, very grateful.

Although in his hometown, the villagers all know that Wu Guihua is his Tan Jingting's daughter-in-law, but he has never seen the osmanthus seriously, even on the day of the wedding, he has never seen it, when the osmanthus head was covered with a hijab, and he has never uncovered the osmanthus hijab, on the night of marriage, he ran away from the marriage, quietly ran away from home, leaving the osmanthus alone in the empty room. Although he went home a few times after that, he never looked at Osmanthus with his eyes, and when Osmanthus saw Tan Jingting, he was timid, and he didn't dare to get close, and always glanced at this nominal husband from a distance

However, it is this nominal daughter-in-law who serves the second elder for Tan Jingting and sends the second elder to the end of his old age, so Tan Jingting thinks about it now and feels that he really can't stand the osmanthus and owes her too much.

Tan Jingting took a closer look at the osmanthus, although it was a little darker and a little dirty, but the facial features were still delicate, and the figure was not bad, although he worked on the farm all year round, his hands were full of calluses, but his appearance was also good, as long as he changed a few clothes with suitable cuts, he was not much worse than the people in the city, and the little feet that Tan Jingting disliked had already been liberated, and the current feet were not too small, so as not to be laughed at.

"Jing Ting, you taste, I stewed pork ribs and corn soup today, I don't know if it suits your taste?" Osmanthus brought a large pot of fragrant soup to Tan Jingting.

"Don't be busy, sit down and eat together." Tan Jingting greeted osmanthus.

Osmanthus hesitated, these days with Tan Jingting, between her and Tan Jingting, she took the initiative to find something to say, but Tan Jingting was mostly speechless, and cherished words like gold. At most, a few words such as "um, ah, good, good" popped out of my mouth, but I didn't expect to tell her a complete sentence today, and it was a heart-warming sentence.

"I'll wait until you're done eating." Osmanthus stepped back timidly and sat on a chair away from the dining table.

"Why are you sitting so far and sitting here?" Tan Jingting bowed to the osmanthus and motioned for the osmanthus to sit at the table.

Tan Jingting's second sentence made Osmanthus feel a heat wave in her heart, she stood up and sat opposite Tan Jingting.

"You watch me eat, how can I eat, don't be restrained, you just treat this place as your home. I treat you as the eldest sister, and there are not so many rules for sisters and brothers to eat at the same table. ”

Tan Jingting stood up, filled a bowl of rice, and put it in front of Osmanthus: "Eat." ”

Osmanthus looked at the bowl of rice in front of her, picked up the chopsticks, took two bites of rice, and tears couldn't help but flutter down: "You didn't treat me as an outsider after all." ”

"Osmanthus, it's me Tan Jingting I'm sorry for you, I wasted your youth in vain, I lost you, although I can't give you a name, but you are always my relative, as long as I Tan Jingting has a bite to eat, I will never starve you."

After listening to Tan Jingting's words, Osmanthus couldn't hold back any longer, put down her rice bowl, lay on the table, and cried.

Tan Jingting stood up, took a towel, and handed it to Osmanthus, who took the towel, hugged Tan Jingting, hugged him, and cried silently.

Tan Jingting sighed deeply, patted Osmanthus on the shoulder, and left silently.
