Chapter Seventy-Six: Memories
Nanyan went to the supermarket near the Sixth Bureau Courtyard to buy something.
Since the divorce, she has rarely gone out. She didn't even want to step out of the room where she slept unless she had to. At home, she didn't want to see the yin and yang weird Jia Xiaohui, she didn't want to listen to Nan Qiang's nagging about scolding Huai like a woman, and she didn't want to see the elderly Song Xiuru swallowing her anger and dealing with her son and daughter-in-law in order to protect her.
In fact, when she went out, she also had nowhere to go. The old neighbors in the yard, the old neighbors, hid when they met her, and she would take the initiative to wear a mask when she went to a crowded place, and every time she heard someone calling a name similar to her, she would run away like a frightened rabbit.
She stood in front of a row of shelves stocked with snack foods.
Potato chip.
It's her favorite snack.
Barbecue, tomato, spicy, cucumber, creamy...... and so on different flavors of potato chips, not only have she eaten them all, but she can also tell the difference in the taste of potato chips between major brands.
For example, the packet of potato chips in front of her is crispier, thinner, and has a more fragrant aftertaste than the other brand of potato chips below......
"Jiaqi, play games with me." She was holding a dozen packets of potato chips wrapped around Chen Jiaqi, who was studying recipes on the sofa.
"What to play?" Chen Jiaqi put the book aside.
"Guess what." She said with a grin.
Chen Jiaqi picked up the book again, "NaΓ―ve." β
She snatched the book from Chen Jiaqi's hand and threw it away, straddled Chen Jiaqi's lap, hugged his neck with both hands, and said: "Beibei lives in the school, and you don't accompany me, how boring I am at home." β
Chen Jiaqi held her thigh and dragged her into his arms, "Then play a ...... that is not childish."
She blushed and pushed Chen Jiaqi, "Oops......"
Chen Jiaqi smiled.
She held Chen Jiaqi's face, opened the bow left and right and kissed twice, "Play with me once." β
Chen Jiaqi pointed to his lips.
She laughed and picked up Chen Jiaqi's jaw with her index finger, "Handsome guy, I want to kiss him." β
Chen Jiaqi nodded slightly, and while she leaned over to kiss lightly, he pressed her under him and deepened the kiss.
The rules of the game of 'Guess Guess' are very simple, that is, she blindfolded to guess what the flavor of the potato chips in Chen Jiaqi's hand is.
She loves potato chips, and Chen Jiaqi bought them for her.
After ten rounds, she guessed them all.
Taking off the blindfold, she looked at the dumbfounded Chen Jiaqi, and praised herself complacently: "How is it, your wife is amazing!" β
Chen Jiaqi gave a thumbs up and smiled with a smile in his eyes, "I heard that there is a profession called sensory evaluator, which requires evaluators to observe the appearance of food, smell food, taste food in a confined space, and fill in the corresponding forms accordingly for enterprises to develop new products." Your sense of taste and smell is so well developed, it's a shame not to do it. β
"Free? Can you eat as much as you want? "There is also this profession, she was surprised.
The thought of the different flavors of potato chips she hadn't eaten or seen before made her saliva start to crease under her tongue.
"Not only potato chips, but also hot pot, ice powder, Hunan cuisine, snail noodles, barbecue, seafood ......" Chen Jiaqi snapped his fingers, counting the same.
Hearing that she felt something was wrong behind her, she looked up and saw the narrow smile on the corner of Chen Jiaqi's mouth, she screamed and pounced, "Chen Jiaqi, you are playing me again!" β
"Hahahaha...... The nature of foodies is exposed......"
"Chen Jiaqiβ"
"Where are you going, hey! Nanyan! β
"Hahaha......"
"This is our new product just launched, soda-flavored potato chips, buy three get one free now, do you want to buy a few packs?" The staff of the supermarket came over to introduce the new products.
Nanyan, who was immersed in her memories, was startled by this voice, she subconsciously touched the mask on her face, and responded in a stammering tone: "No...... Don't buy ...... Thank you ......."
She quickly left the food area with her head down, went to the daily chemical care area to get a box of toothpaste, and walked out of the supermarket after checking out.
Next to the supermarket is a self-service bank with an animal-shaped coin-operated rocking chair in front of the bank.
A little boy who couldn't walk was carried by his grandfather into the seat, and the little boy danced with excitement and kept spitting bubbles in his mouth.
The old man didn't know where to put the coin, and he muttered and fumbled in the rocking chair.
She stopped and helped the old man stuff the coin into the coin hole.
The music of the rocking chair sounded, swaying one after the other.
"Thank you, thank you." The old man thanked him repeatedly.
She smiled through her mask, turned around, and pushed open the door of the self-service bank.
The way back was not long, but she walked for a long time before she saw the rusty iron fence gate of the Sixth Bureau Courtyard.
She could walk through the doorway with her eyes closed, and every face, every greeting here was as familiar as yesterday.
When I entered the door, I bumped into Aunt Hu, who lived in the next unit.
She was carrying a stripped blue cloth bag, and it looked like she was going grocery shopping.
Seeing Aunt Hu looking at her, she gave way to the side.
"Yan'er? You're Yan'er, right? She was wearing a mask, and Aunt Hu didn't dare to admit it.
She lowered her eyelashes and replied indistinctly, "Aunt Hu, where are you going?" β
"Oh, don't care where I'm going, go back and see your mother, your mother just quarreled with your Aunt Xu, and almost got into a fight." Aunt Hu pointed to the building where Nanyan lived.
Xu Dazui?
Nan Yan's heart sank, she didn't care about talking to Aunt Hu, and trotted all the way back home.
The house was quiet, without a sound.
"Mom-Mom-" she tossed the toothpaste she had just bought on the shoe cabinet and walked into the living room.
Song Xiuru sat on the sofa with her back to her.
Hearing the shout, Song Xiuru hurriedly wiped the corners of her eyes and pulled her hair back.
She turned her head with a smile on her lips, "I'm back." What have you bought, let Mom see. β
Nanyan took off her mask, walked to Song Xiuru's side, sat down and hugged Song Xiuru's shoulder, "Mom, don't pretend, I know everything." β
Song Xiuru was stunned, her eyes were sour, something wanted to pour out of it.
She sniffed, stroked Nanyan's back, and said, "It's okay!" It's okay, I'm just talking to your Aunt Xu, it's not a big deal. β
"Mom......" The more understated Song Xiuru's tone is, the bigger the matter will be.
Song Xiuru has always been so strong, and after her father died, she almost didn't shed tears. But for the sake of her, an unfilial daughter, the old mother, who is over seventy years old, not only swallows her anger everywhere, but also does not hesitate to turn against her old friends in order to protect her.
These days, she tries to pretend that she is very good, very calm, eats and sleeps with the family like a normal person, and occasionally takes the initiative to go out for a walk. She thought that this would ease the tension at home and make Song Xiuru's life a little better, but she didn't expect that she would only add chaos to this family and make her mother sad as before.
"I'm sorry." Nanyan shed tears.
As a child, she can't protect her mother, and as a mother, she can't protect Beibei.
There was a biting cold in her body, and she suddenly realized that Nanyan, who had left Chen Jiaqi, was nothing......
"Mom, do you still need people in the restaurant you told me about last time?" The next morning, Nanyan, with red and swollen eyelids, leaned on the kitchen door and asked Song Xiuru, who was cooking porridge.
