These two people are always together, arm in arm, walking slowly down the old streets, occasionally meeting former acquaintances, and will exchange a few pleasantries, such as "How many months?" "It's been more than five months." "Where did you move to?" "Tonglin Road, not very far" and the like, politely, and then nodded and passed by, each doing his own thing.

Sometimes they will talk a little more, at dusk or when it is dark, the sun is not so big, there is no need to hold an umbrella, there will be a cool breeze on the street, they go out for a walk together, there is nothing to do, they will get together to chat, but this time is on the weekend, and it is rare to see them on weekdays.

It used to be the same, since they moved to a new house, they often came over on weekends, and even earlier, the two of them lived on Nanfei Road, often hanging out in the area, and occasionally running. At that time, they were still very young, one was pure and beautiful, the other was tall and handsome - let's be considered handsome, because that face was good-looking, similar to his father, but he didn't know how to dress up, dressed rustic, and lowered his style a little, and then the two of them were handsome for a while after being together, but it didn't take long for them to return to their rustic appearance, probably because it was troublesome, so they simply stopped dressing up.

Qin Guanglin of the old Qin family, at that time, many people said that he was down-to-earth and honest, in fact, there was no other boast - although he was admitted to Los Angeles University, he studied painting, and it was not easy to find a job to find this, he would paint, so he liked girls, but he was bored at home all day long, and he didn't often go out, even if he went out, he was a 10,000-year-old plaid shirt, and the soil was scum, so the neighborhood could only praise him for his steadfastness, and Lao Pan of the convenience store would often want to teach him some skills of the sister, and he didn't want to learn it yet.

It's hard for this kid to find a girlfriend - everyone thought like this at that time, and things were indeed as everyone thought, more than two years after graduation, and he has been hiding at home, and he can only see him out once in a while, as for his girlfriend and work, he can't see it at all, even the little fat man who is going to elementary school next door has brought female classmates home several times, and the kid of the Qin family has not touched the girl's side.

But since that time the girl wandered around here twice, everything has been different - the girl is young, she looks like an ordinary college student, but I don't know what's going on, it's just that it makes people look very comfortable, and then I heard that it is called temperament.

It was after this girl came, the Qin family boy has undergone earth-shaking changes, the two of them seem to be glued together, often see them go shopping together in the evening, talking and laughing, meeting acquaintances and politely greeting, after eating, he will run, sometimes the girl will ride a bicycle to supervise his own running.

In this way, after two or three years, the Qin family boy became stronger, he didn't look rustic, and he found a job, he went to work every day with his bag to buy breakfast, and then came back with his bag after work. The things there are all eaten and drunk casually, from noon to night, but they can't be taken away, but that's it, it's much better than other people's weddings, foreign, everyone happily blesses them to have a precious son early, because it's too late to get married, and if you don't think about having a child, you'll be thirty years old - the eldest sister of the Qin family is so anxious about this matter, when she sits at the street with the neighbors at night, she always asks everyone what home remedies they have for conceiving a child, and then the neighbor Sister Wang helped her find out the earthwork for giving birth to a son. said that she ate this when she gave birth to a little fat man, so she smiled happily and didn't ask again.

To this day, you can still see the Qin family boy and his wife wandering around this old street, Xu is Wang sister's recipe can not only manage the birth of a boy, but also help pregnancy, every weekend, the girl will hold her stomach, hold the arm of the Qin family boy to walk on this old street, or go to the vegetable market to buy vegetables, listen to the Qin family sister said, this kid comes to cook at night, their family of three, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law two plus the Qin family boy, the cooking thing falls on the big man, everyone thinks it's not a thing, but the Qin family sister is proud, saying that her daughter-in-law is good, Just like her own daughter, she has to be spoiled.

Xu suffered too much when she was young, she knew that it was not easy for a woman, so she was so good to this daughter-in-law that she was heavenly, and the neighbors understood that seeing the two of them walking together and smiling on their faces, they should be quite happy.

The little fat man of the Wang family in the neighborhood has also slowly lost weight, I heard that he is learning to paint with the Qin family boy, which makes many neighbors shake their heads, the Qin family boy is lucky, and he has a Wangfu's daughter-in-law, otherwise he will paint those broken paintings, a piece of hundreds and thousands, where will anyone buy it, or find a job to be stable, I heard that the job he is looking for is to draw villain books, and now the car is on, and the house is bought, everyone says that it is the daughter-in-law Wangfu, otherwise how can it be possible to make so much money by painting villain books.

The little fat man of the Wang family also wants to learn like that, it will never work, occasionally when he sits at the corner of the street and chats, there will be people who persuade Sister Wang, Sister Wang is a rural woman who married to Los Angeles, she doesn't know a few big characters, and she can't teach children, but she is strong, if you have to say that the kid of the Qin family was admitted to Los Angeles University, how can her little fat man learn to paint and be taught, then study hard.

Everyone looks at her like this, and after mentioning it a few times, she will stop talking, occasionally seeing her pulling the little fat man with a broom and pimple, the little fat man is crying and shouting, the grades will really improve, and when she got the report card, Sister Wang also showed off to everyone, saying that the grades are played, and you don't know how to study if you don't play.

If the kid of the Qin family was present, he would clap his hands in admiration and shout: Good fight! …… Maybe it was because the eldest sister of the Qin family beat this kid too hard, so that he had this strange habit, he liked to watch other people's families beat children, and the little fat man of the Wang family would ask him for help at first, but later found that whenever his mother saw the kid of the Qin family, she would be more ruthless, so she would cry and beg him to leave quickly.

I don't know what the Qin family's kid will be towards his own children, everyone will inevitably gossip in their spare time, some people say that he will definitely be like Sister Wang, some people say that he is definitely reluctant to beat his own children - just look at that appearance, he can see that there is a pebble in front of his wife, he has to trot two steps and kick away, for fear of tripping his wife with a big belly, this appearance does not look like he will beat the child ruthlessly.

In a blink of an eye, the rustic poor painter has become what it is today, sometimes when I think about it, everyone will sigh, who would have thought of this day, fate is too magical, of course, that is, to sigh, ride the summer wind, gossip under the night sky, otherwise there is nothing to do at night, stay at home and turn on the fan will also cost electricity, it is better to go to the street and the neighborhood to chat together.

After finishing the gossip, seeing that it was almost time to go to bed, they went back to their respective homes, and when they lay down in bed, the gossip they said went out from the other ear, and they began to think about tomorrow's arrangement, whether to go to the supermarket in the distance to see if there were any special egg toilet paper or something, or to go to the vegetable market to see if the meat price had dropped - they were so idle, they didn't have much to do every day, so they scratched around these things.

On the night of August, it was already midnight, the sky was completely dark, many people on the street were lit up, and some were dark, the Qin family may have eaten a big meal, and others had already moved Mazha to the street to enjoy the shade, so they turned off the lights at home, and the three of them went out for a walk together, and when the walk was over, the two young people of the Qin family would drive back to their homes, as if it was Tonglin Road.

The layout of Lao Pan's convenience store is different from other places: other convenience stores all register at the entrance, and the shelves inside are sorted row by row, and the things are selected and go to the cashier to settle the bill. Lao Pan renovated his convenience store, opened up the wall between the convenience store and the back bedroom, the space was much larger, like a big supermarket, the cash register was not placed at the entrance, but two entrances were set up, the entrance was just the entrance, and after choosing things, he went to the exit on the other side of the house to pay the bill - there was a street corner, Lao Pan was on top of his bare head, holding a big shabby fan, sitting at the door in big pants, chatting with the neighbors, while waiting for others to come out of here, and he collected the money again, When there were few people resting with him, he leaned on the recliner with the cat at the door, and he didn't know when he would fall asleep, but fortunately there were neighbors here, and no one was greedy for his little bargain, and he would wake him up when he bought something, and then see how much it was, and then check out.

Someone persuaded him to hand over the family business to his son Xiao Pan, and he also stiffened his neck and said that he was not old, and he could still solve it by collecting money, and turned his head and leaned back on the recliner and fell asleep.

When the three members of the Qin family passed by the Lao Pan convenience store, the Qin family boy whispered a few words to the two people, as if asking something, his wife held his stomach and nodded, the two of them have been holding together, they have never been separated since they went out, and now they are still holding together, turning their heads to say hello, the eldest sister of the Qin family continued to walk forward, and waited at the exit of the Lao Pan convenience store, the two of them entered from the entrance of the convenience store, but in a short moment, they arrived at the exit, and the Qin family boy held a row of small bottles of yogurt in his hand, and put it on the counter to ask the price.

Now it's all the information age, there is no need to discharge a lot of money, he took out his mobile phone and scanned it on the QR code, and he could pay after a beep. "Boys and girls?" Lao Pan waited for him to pay for his leisure and asked casually, and the neighbors on the side also speculated based on their own experience, "The shape of this belly is a girl, I can see it accurately!" As soon as the aunt on the street spoke, the other old aunt waved her hand and retorted: "The top is round and the bottom is round, and the head is down, obviously it is the son." In the midst of the gossip, the girl with her stomach just smiled, touched her belly and leaned on the shoulder of the person next to her, waiting for him to pay. After paying the money, the kid of the Qin family put away his mobile phone and smiled at the neighbors: "It's just been puffed up, how can it have a shape, and you'll know when it's born." ”

"It's like, the belly hasn't really grown yet, what do you look at the sharp round?" The old lady on the side spoke up, attracting the affirmation of others, "Now I can't see it just now, I have to go to the hospital to know that your experience is useless!" The eldest sister of the Qin family looked at her neighbor Sister Wang with confidence, and said proudly: "It must be a son!" ”

She stayed here to enjoy the shade with the neighbors, let the little couple continue to go for a walk to eat, the Qin family boy took apart the yogurt and inserted the straw and handed it to the daughter-in-law next to him with a belly, reflecting the dim street lamp, arms together and walking slowly along the old street, from time to time leaning his head together and whispering and chuckling, Lao Pan touched his bald head, shook it at will with a pu fan, looked at the backs of the two at night, and sighed What a good couple.

The conversation quickly shifted elsewhere, and the passing of the young couple was just an episode, and the neighbors gathered together to laugh from time to time, and the corner was filled with a cheerful air.
