Volume 1 Chapter 17 Gossip Neighborhood
On the way back from the West Beach, Ye Zihao was sometimes excited, sometimes he felt lost, and he didn't notice that something was wrong with her.
Back in the old alleys of the old town, the two walked side by side. Usually Ye Zihao always holds her hand, but this time, Ye Zihao is not as good as before.
Walking beside him silently, when he was about to reach the door of the alley, he saw a group of neighbors sitting on the stone bench below chatting happily under the old osmanthus tree from a distance. Among them, Ye Zihao's mother, Aunt Yang, was standing in the crowd in a short black skirt in the morning, saying something loudly with her eyebrows fluttering, with a proud face, and the neighbors around her all looked at her with extremely envious eyes.
But these envious glances are also mixed with some old men's exploration of the chubby legs exposed under her short skirt.
These Aunt Yang will never care, on the contrary, she will be very proud.
"Your mother is here, you go first, I'll come back later."
As soon as she saw Aunt Yang's smug expression, Bai Qingyun didn't want to walk with Ye Zihao. At this time, more things are better than less, I really don't want Aunt Yang to see her and Ye Zihao walking side by side.
So he pushed Ye Zihao forward, because he was wearing a pair of pointed shoes with British style today, and the leather shoes were a little slippery on the bluestone road. So this push, Ye Zihao almost fell.
But fortunately, this push made him come back to his senses completely. Looking back at her expression, she looked puzzled.
"Your mom is there, so you go first. Otherwise, the two of us will be their topic again! ”
Bai Qingyun was actually a little irritable in her heart, and in the face of Ye Zihao's incomprehension, she was a little depressed, and her voice became rushed.
As long as these neighbors get together, they will be in the east and the west will be short, and they like to expose the shortcomings the most, as long as they see the slightest mistake in others, they will take it out and expand it, and make it known to everyone.
So she doesn't want to walk with Ye Zihao now, who knows what flowers everyone will say when they see the two of them holding hands.
However, the two of them were too close to the neighborhoods, so that when Ye Zihao was looking at her in a state of confusion, those neighbors had already seen them standing at the door of Lao Yuan's house.
Lao Yuan's family and Ye Zihao's family are neighbors, really close!
"Son~~~ Son is back!! Son, you told your mother at noon that you were going to Haifei to work, is it true? The annual salary of more than 200,000 is also true, right? Wow, my son is out of breath! Mom didn't raise you in vain! ”
Aunt Yang was talking to the neighbors, and as soon as she saw Ye Zihao, she ran over quickly, taking small steps all the way, and the plastic flower slippers on her feet made a sound on the bluestone slab, "Let's ~~~".
"Yes, Mom! I'll start work next Monday! ”
As soon as he talked about going to work, Ye Zihao came to his senses, facing his mother, and he was very happy.
"Look, I'm talking about my son! Everyone comes to eat at home tonight, I have a treat, how about you eat the braised goose in Laoyang City? Cook a few more good dishes, and everyone will drink. ”
Walking in front of Ye Zihao, Aunt Yang was very excited, she didn't even look at her, she took Ye Zihao's hand and walked under the old osmanthus tree.
"Okay, good~~~ Zihao is out of breath, he should have a treat. After so many years, his Aunt Yang has really worked hard, and she should be blessed! ”
"Haha, okay, the Yang family's aunt is bold. Let's drink more tonight, happy and happy....."
As soon as I heard Aunt Yang say that she was going to invite guests to dinner, the neighbors were very excited. Especially Lao Yuan, the slender horse's face was full of excitement......
At this time, Bai Qingyun stood at the door of Old Uncle Yuan's house and watched Ye Zihao raise his eyebrows in front of a group of neighbors, although she knew in her heart that this was a good thing, she couldn't be happy.
At this moment, there was a sneer behind him, the voice was small, but it was full of ridicule.
This laughter made Bai Qingyun angry, and he turned around hard, only to find that there was no one behind him. The long alleys and the tall old brown walls on both sides were gilded with a faint golden glow in the evening sun. Under the golden light, the moss and green grass on the bluestone pavement are vibrant, smart and high-spirited.
Everything in front of her was so beautiful, but she wasn't in a good mood at all.
"Oh, Zihao is getting more and more handsome now, and Xiao Qingyun has also grown up, when will you two get married, we neighbors can't wait....."
I don't know who it is, I said that I took her here, which startled her and quickly turned her head.
The person who said this was Aunt Yao opposite Uncle Yuan's house, Aunt Yao was about the same age as Aunt Yang, and she was a well-known gossip lady in the old alley.
But she is very good, she always smiles when she sees her and Ye Zihao walking together, and occasionally takes out homemade snacks for them to eat, such as maltose and grapefruit candy.....
As soon as she said this, she immediately set off a topic boom under the old osmanthus tree.....
"Yes, yes, she Aunt Yang, Zihao and Xiao Qingyun are two golden boys and girls, the two grew up together, when will they get married!? We can't wait, or we will get engaged first, anyway, now that Zihao has found a job, the old Bai family won't say anything! ”
"That's it, Zihao's mother, now that the two of them are not young, when will they get engaged first."
"That's it, haha......"
“......”
"Oh, don't talk nonsense, our family Zihao and Qingyun are just having a good time, Zihao has always regarded Qingyun as a sister, how can my brother and sister get married. Okay, okay, don't talk about that, just come to our house for dinner in the evening! ”
Just as she was talking energetically, Aunt Yang was a little impatient, her fat face was cold, and she directly put aside the relationship between Ye Zihao and her.
"Mom~~~ I like Qingyun, anyway, I only marry Qingyun in my life."
Ye Zihao looked happy, and when he heard his mother say this, he was not happy. Turning her head to her, who was still standing at the door of Old Uncle Yuan's house, her words were firm.
As soon as these words came out, Bai Qingyun's heart that had just fallen to the bottom came to life, and looking at Ye Zihao, he couldn't help but smile on his lips.
Under the osmanthus tree, a group of neighbors chatted again with great interest because of Ye Zihao's words.....
"Look, Zihao, this kid just likes Qingyun, the two of them have been childhood sweethearts since childhood, and no one can compare to this relationship."
"That's it, Aunt Yang, you still don't have to struggle. The old Bai family is clear and good, and although the people of Lao Bai don't like to talk, but the people are good, who in this alley has not received the favor of the old Bai family, right? And ....."
But before she finished speaking, Aunt Yang became impatient, and directly pulled Ye Zihao to the gate of their house.
"Stinky son, do you dare to listen to my mother's words?! Let's go, accompany the old lady to buy braised goose, you all play first, and I'll give you Zhang Luo to eat....."
Bai Qingyun saw Ye Zihao and Aunt Yang walking towards her, and hurriedly ran to her door.
Because of his impatience, he stumbled and almost fell.
"Snort~~~", there was a cold ridicule behind her, although she was unhappy, but at this time she had no time to take care of it.
Before Ye Zihao and her mother were about to walk to the door of his house, she had already arrived at the door of her house, quickly pushed open the door, and flashed in directly.
When the heavy wooden door slowly closed, Bai Qingyun exhaled deeply, and his heart beat fast.
However, the heart that had just been put down then floated high again, and there was talk from the neighbors outside.....
"Qingyun, this girl has not found a job after graduating from college, the boss is not small, she stays at home every day, and she loses so hard work every day."
As soon as these words came out, the blood in Bai Qingyun's whole body surged to his head in an instant.
"Indeed, now that Zihao has found such a good job, the young man is even more handsome than a star. Maybe the two will break up soon, believe it or not? And in this world, there is no man who can resist the temptation of beautiful women....."
The one who said this was the daughter-in-law of the old Zhang family behind her family, and the old Zhang family's own son was doing things all day long, and he was already married in his thirties.
Bah!
Bai Qingyun was indignant in her heart, her hands were clenched into fists, and she wanted to tear the woman's face apart.
This is not unreasonable, but people are childhood sweethearts..... You keep your voice quiet, in case the girl of the old Bai family hears it, it won't be good! ”
"It's okay, she can't hear it. What a childhood sweetheart, now that there is money in this society, it is the last word. Zihao is so handsome, who knows what will happen in the future, right? ”
“......”
Gradually, those words became lower and lower, Bai Qingyun listened, and stood by the door sullenly, for a while, before coming back to his senses.
Pouting, he gently bolted the bolt of the gate and walked into the courtyard.
The yard was quiet and my dad hadn't gotten up yet. The air was full of the fragrance of old osmanthus trees, and the green peony in the middle of the courtyard swayed gently in the wind, and the leaves sizzled, as if welcoming her.
Seeing the green peony, she suddenly felt a little aggrieved after a lot of ups and downs in the afternoon, slowly walked to its side, touched its leaves, and began to have mist under her eyes.
"I'm so tired today, Huahua (this is the nickname she gave to Green Peony when she was young, and she has been called until now), Brother Hao has found a job, the marketing director of Haifei Real Estate Group, Haifei is so good, I am really happy for him. However, Brother Hao's boss is both beautiful and sexy, and she seems to be very interested in Brother Hao like that, if Brother Hao likes her, I ..... I..... What should I do....."
Saying this, Bai Qingyun began to feel sad.
Sitting on a small bench next to the green peony, he began to cry, and in the end, he couldn't cry a little.
I had never thought about these problems before, but now when I suddenly faced them, I was a little unimaginable......
Now, the more I think about it, the more sad I feel, the more uncomfortable I feel, crying sadly, a handful of snot and a handful of tears!
"Hey~~~Hey~~~~~ look at me~~~"
At this time, there was a ruffian voice in my ears, which was very relaxed with a smile.....
Without thinking about it, he looked up and looked towards the source of the sound with hazy teary eyes.
Belch.....
What's the situation?
There was a man sitting on the high wall of their house!
A man!
A mixed-race man who is more beautiful than a woman!
Who is he?!
