Shang Tan'an saw his orange car parked on the side of the thirteenth section of the west end of the highway from a distance, and he walked quickly to the front of his yard and opened the fence gate.

"Scarlet." He shouted.

The door was closed, so he did not enter the yard, but went west outside the fence, and looked under the west outer wall, and there was no one on the bluestone slats.

"Huh."

There was a slight noise in the courtyard. He turned around and saw the door of his dome open, and a community housekeeping robot came out.

It rolled its bionic eyes at him and smiled, "Mister is back." ”

Before Shang Tan'an could respond, the Dag family next door also opened the door. "Brother Shang, sister-in-law Shang is at our house." Dag walked out.

Shang Tan'an looked over, and it was Dag's sister-in-law and Scarlet who came out behind him, so he smiled and walked around the fence of the house next door.

"I said, I just saw a figure, it must be that Brother Shang is back, no, I heard Brother Shang calling Sister-in-law Shang after a while." Dag turned back to his wife.

Scarlet glanced at Shang Tan'an and said to his neighbor, "Thank you, then I'll go back." ”

"What's wrong?" Shang Tan'an hurriedly asked, "Is there something in our family that wants to trouble you?" ”

"No, no, the head of the household comes to make a routine home visit. Oops, it's really hard work. ”

I see. Shang Tan'an smiled and waited outside the courtyard of Dage's house for Scarlet to come out. "Where else are you going?"

"It's all right."

"Brother Shang has been busy with work recently," Dag stood in the courtyard, greeting warmly through the fence, "I don't seem to have seen you in the morning and evening for the past two days, so I got off work early today." ”

"It's fine. Recently, I've been a little busy, and I can't take care of it at home, so I thought there were some bad facilities, and Scarlet came to you for help. Shang Tan was relieved, and the neighbors wanted to chat, so he waved his hand and let the housekeeping robot in front of his house take care of himself, and he asked casually, "If there is anything at home in the future, and I am not here, Brother Da will help take care of it, thank you." ”

"Brother Shang, what are you still polite to me," Dag said happily while sending Scarlet Silk, "We must help each other if there is something." Distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, and our gang of people don't even have distant relatives here, only close neighbors. ”

"Yes." Shang Tan'an smiled and looked at Scarlet out of the fence gate of Dag's house.

"Hey, Brother Shang, when you mentioned the facilities, there have been a few cases of Anju housing repairs recently. It's not in our section, it's in other sections, it's in several communities. Dag and his wife stood in the courtyard, across the fence with the merchant, chatting and exchanging messages by the way, "Alas, after living for a while, it seems that all kinds of small problems in the house are about to pop up." After all, it's not one of those serious houses in our hometown, and it's too small. Just now, the sister-in-law asked us to talk about the community living experience, and I reflected the small problem of our house. ”

"Yes, the community experience is always about what we really think. can be adjusted correctly. Shang Tan'an responded with a smile, leaning his body slightly, and stopped the wind blowing in the wilderness to the west.

It was a cold winter, and Brother Qiong had sunk to the bottom of the ground early, and in a while, the gray-blue clouds stained the sky even darker.

The two families said a few more words and said goodbye. Dag and his wife returned to the room, and Shang Tan'an and Scarlet entered their yard.

The housekeeping robot hurriedly opened the door for the two: "Sir, madam, are back." ”

"Hmm." Scarlet didn't mince words about the robot, and when they met, they asked, "Is the cleaning done?" ”

"Alright."

"Let's go back."

The robot didn't have any appointments at this time, so he asked politely: "Madam, I'm still free, do you need me to do anything else?" There are no yards in your quest area today. "Generally, people call it door-to-door service, and they are all cleaned in sets with the house and yard.

"No, you don't."

The robot bowed deeply to the two of them, walked out of the courtyard gate, and returned to the community warehouse on their own.

Shang Tan'an glanced back at it and said strangely, "You called it today?" "Usually people only let the robot do the housekeeping on the weekends.

"Hmm." Scarlet pushed open the door and looked in, the room was filled with the faint scent of flowers. Doesn't give the robot a good restraint, it is always willing to follow the standard procedures of community house sweeping to add a little more flavor to her.

She frowned and asked as she entered the house, "How were you doing outside last night?" ”

"It's okay."

Scarlet turned her head to look at him and stepped into the room. "Have you had dinner?"

"Not yet, come home and eat, what about you?"

"Neither do I."

Of course not. This afternoon, Scarlet looked at the door of the Ministry of Inhumanity and received a reply from the Ministry of Machinery Management to the Ministry of Inhuman Affairs, signed by Shang Tan'an, and knew that he had returned. It is inhumane to just finish field work and then work overtime, and he will definitely leave work on time. There is generally no abnormality, and both of them eat together at home after work. Scarlet has long solidified these conventions of cohabitation into a code, and dinner is a must.

No, she turned around the door, took advantage of the dawn, and gathered the home visit homework of the head of the household section that must be done once a month, and did it all efficiently.

The timing happened to be just right.

Shang Tan'an followed Scarlet into the house, put down his work bag, needless to say, went straight to the storage compartment and took out the nutrients for two people, and when he turned around, Scarlet had already popped out the small table by the window, and the two of them had long since stopped saying that you sit and I sit, and each went to the side where they were used to sitting, sat down by the window table, lit the lamp, and ate dinner.

In the past, the two of them didn't talk when they dined, and I don't know when it changed, this rule has changed.

Before the moon was ready to rise, the large cloth knot hanging from the bed was reflected in the window, as well as the side faces of Shang Tan'an and Scarlet.

"Did the home visit go well?" Shang Tan'an asked first. He has always known that Scarlet is the most impatient with the job of the head of the household, and every time in order to submit a report, he has to go to someone's house to order a meal, and he is not accompanied today, I am afraid that it is more rigid than the robot asking someone to do the question and answer test paper.

"Smooth." Scarlet replied casually, looking at his face, as if she had swallowed something.

"I'll do the report later," Shang Tan'an laughed, "I'll submit this month's submission today." ”

"Aren't you tired?"

"Not tired. Yesterday I slept at the observation station of the Ollie Ice Sea, and today I didn't actually do anything, and I have been buffering and resting since I came back. ”

"That'...... All right. Scarlet felt that since Shang Tan'an said yes, she still gave him the community home visit materials, and still asked him to write the report of Na Lao Shizi, so as not to be incoherent in the style of writing in the past few months. She cares more about his field work. "Is the Ollie Ice Sea colder than here?"

"I don't think in the observatory. But it was really cold outside, and the original lagoon was completely frozen. Shang Tan'an explained to Scarlet, and she listened very carefully. Before they knew it, the two of them had also eaten up their nutrients.

"I wasn't there yesterday, so there's nothing going on at home, right?"

"It's fine." Crimson crisp and refreshing.

"In the future, maybe there will be more overnight stays in the field, if I don't go home, you should be more careful alone, and find more neighbors if you have something."

Scarlet raised his eyebrows: "Do you have more overnight stays in the field, or do you have more overnight stays in the field?" ”

Shang Tan'an was slightly stunned, and then replied with a smile: "I feel that this is the trend." ”

"Yes, the trend is here." Scarlet sighed lowly. They're going to have to get out.

"There's nothing wrong with your body, is it?" She asked.

"Nope. However, last night several people were crammed into an observation room, and they didn't fall asleep for a while. Shang Tan'an said lightly.

Scarlet immediately said, "You sleep in bed tonight." ”

"That's not what I meant."

"That's what I meant. Speaking of which, we should have changed again a long time ago. The cleaning is done. ”

Shang Tan'an suddenly realized that Scarlet had already planned to call the robot to come. "You ......," he was helpless. Scarlet is strong, she has to be fair in everything, and there must be a way to achieve the fairness she wants. In this way, he, a big man, did not know what to do.

"I don't really care." He whispered.
