"Lao Li! Lao Li! A familiar voice was calling me. A huge shadow jumped from an oncoming chartered bus.

I stood still and looked up. Lao Yao stood in front of me with a smile on his face.

"I was worried that I couldn't find you, and I didn't expect to catch me halfway, what a coincidence!" He smiled with satisfaction. He immediately turned around and instructed the coachman, "You pull the car home first." ”

The coachman answered, picked up the car and left.

"What's the good thing? You're so proud! I asked.

"When I meet you, my problem is solved," Lao Yao replied with a smile. "I made an appointment with Zhaohua to go to the movies at seven o'clock today, and I bought both tickets. How do you know that when I go to Zhao's house, Zhao's family must keep me for dinner, and accompany the old lady to listen to Sichuan opera at night, it is not okay not to agree. But what about my wife's movie? I think I'll have to ask you to come with her. But I'm afraid you're not at home. Now there is no problem. ”

"Actually, you can watch the movie and then listen to it," I said.

"But I have to rush back to Zhao's house to eat. Now I'll go home and talk to Zhaohua first. ”

"If you don't go, I'm afraid your wife will be unhappy."

"No, no," he said, shaking his head, with confidence; "She couldn't be better-tempered. She also knew that I was not happy to watch movies on weekdays, and I went to accompany her. ”

"The Zhao family didn't invite your wife to dinner?"

"Why are you like this, I see that you are about to become an old woman," Lao Yao complained with a smile. "Let's go, Zhaohua is waiting for us at home. I still have to rush to Zhao's house. The Zhao family is at the south gate, and we are here at the north gate! ”

I smiled and followed him back to the mansion. On the way, he answered my question. He also explained to me: "Mrs. Zhao didn't want to see Zhaohua, saying that when she saw Zhaohua, she would think of her own daughter, and she felt bad. Since my first wife died, Mrs. Zhao has not come to my house. In fact, Zhaohua was also very affectionate to the Zhao family at first. Later, the Zhao family often said that she was afraid of making the old lady sad, so she didn't dare to take her to play, so she didn't go to the Zhao family again. In fact, it is no wonder that the Zhao family, the old lady loves her daughter, and it is human nature, and my first wife is her only daughter. ”

"Then when Mrs. Zhao sees you and Xiaohu, won't she think of her only daughter?" I was not satisfied with his explanation, so I gave him a reply.

"She likes Little Tiger so much. Xiaohu talked about listening to the play tonight, "He didn't seem to understand what I meant, but he just said something that made me unhappy."

We arrived home. Lao Yao asked me to go back to my room and wait. I stepped into the threshold of the rest garden, and I heard him instructing Lao Wen: "You go outside and hire a car for Mr. Li." ”
