Chapter 62: Goodbye Girl
The middle-aged man on the other end of the phone seemed to be in a good mood, he said to me no, his daughter had woken up, asked me if I had time today, if I had time, go to his house to sit, and then trouble me to help his daughter check how she is recovering.
I looked at Lao Cai and thought to myself that it was boring anyway, and I was going to go there. One is to get my amulet back, and the other is to return to him the money he gave me last time. Although Lao Cai said that if I don't accept it, the other party will be contaminated with my cause and effect, after all, I am not related to their family. But last time he stuffed me with the red envelope, I counted it later, and it was actually a full 2,000 yuan, which is too much, and I was uneasy to accept so much money, so I planned to give him some more.
So he nodded with the phone and said to him, "Okay uncle, today is the weekend, I'm on the street now, I'll take a taxi over." ”
After hanging up the phone, I talked to Lao Cai, and Lao Cai also felt too bored, so he took a taxi with me and went straight to the old town.
When I came to Jingming Garden Community again, because it was daytime, I saw more clearly this time.
The uncle at the door is still the same, and he doesn't seem to have seen me and Lao Cai swaggering into the community during the day, he is still squinting and dozing in the small sentry box.
On the eighth floor, when I climbed again this time, I obviously felt a little more relaxed than last time, I don't know if it was because I had a good rest these days, or because my injury had healed a lot.
Lao Cai obviously didn't suffer this crime, and the pressure exerted on him by his more than 100 catties of fat was really great, so when he climbed up to the eighth floor with difficulty, he was finally so tired that he bent over and gasped.
Knock on the door, it's still the familiar living room. It's just that compared to the lifeless atmosphere before, this time it is undoubtedly much more cheerful.
It was a middle-aged man who opened the door, and after seeing me and Lao Cai, he warmly welcomed us in. As soon as she sat on the sofa, a middle-aged woman also came out of the kitchen, holding a plate of chopped apples in her hand.
Her complexion is much better, and compared with the last time, it can be said that she is like two people. She saw me and said, "Little Departure is coming?" Quick, eat some fruit. ”
I nodded embarrassedly, picked up a piece of apple with a toothpick and put it in my mouth, looked around, and asked, "Auntie, where is your son?" Isn't he there? ”
If you want to say that in this family, the most impressive thing for me is that kid, probably because I have been thinking about finding an opportunity to avenge that punch. Although the kid's heart should not be bad, but the situation at that time was a little special. But if you are kind enough to do good deeds, you will be made blue-eyed, who can feel better.
The aunt smiled and said, "He's back to the army." The discipline in the army is strict, and they have to go back after the holiday, and they can't be delayed. ”
I nodded, gave a soft sigh, and continued, "What about your daughter?" Didn't my uncle tell me on the phone that she was awake? I came here to see how she recovered, and I had to go back to class in the evening, so I'll have to go back in a while. ”
Auntie suddenly came to her senses when she heard me say this, she patted her head and said with a smile: "This kid, everything is fine, but he is too shy." I heard from your uncle that a guest was coming to the house, so I went to stay in the room, and I went to call her out. ”
The girl seemed to be recovering well, and I thought that if she was still in bed and couldn't move, she would have to go to her room. Listening to this aunt's tone now, it is obvious that her recovery is not bad.
After the middle-aged woman left, the middle-aged man spoke. He first looked at me a few times, and then sighed: "I didn't expect you to have such a great ability at such a young age, you are really young and promising." To tell you the truth, my heart was beating the drum when I saw you that day. Although I had heard some things, I never expected that one day I would actually meet the legendary master, and he would still be so young. …… By the way, Xiaoli, which school do you study? ”
Listening to the middle-aged man's praise, I only had a wry smile on my face, and I didn't accept or refute it. I don't know what it tastes like if I'm not in my position, others only see my majesty when I exorcise evil spirits and demons, how can I know that I actually have incomplete five elements and can't live to be twenty years old?
So I smiled wryly and lowered my head and told him that I was in my first year of high school in the experimental middle school.
Unexpectedly, when he heard this, he immediately raised his eyebrows, and said with some excitement: "Really? My family Qianqian is also in the experimental middle school, she is in class 72, what about you? ”
After listening to his words, I was stunned, it turned out that his daughter was next to our class, it was really fate, this time it was true.
I told him I was in class 71, right next to their class.
The middle-aged man grinned and said: "That's really fate, you and my family Qianqian will also know each other in the future, she is a little girl with good grades in all subjects, but she is too introverted, and she usually doesn't have any friends or anything, in the future, at school, my family Qianqian will trouble you to help your uncle take care of it more." ”
I smiled wryly again and nodded. What are you trying to take care of? I can't even take care of it myself. And I haven't seen your daughter since half a semester, and I will definitely be the same in the future, she is fine by herself, and I won't be okay anyway.
Besides, what can I take care of her? In terms of study, I estimate that she can throw me eighteen streets, and she will take care of me. If I want to say that the only place I can take care of her is in terms of demons and monsters, but how unlucky must she be if she is an ordinary person who can be haunted by ghosts for the second time in today's society where ghosts are so rare?
However, I guess the words of the person in front of me are also half-joking, and there is no serious meaning. Taking care of his daughter? Parents are afraid that their children will fall in love, especially girls, and they are even more afraid that she will suffer something when she is young and ignorant. Let me take care of her, not afraid that I will abduct his daughter? It is said that my daughter is my father's lover in my last life, and from another point of view, he should be like a wolf guard to me.
So I smiled wryly and nodded casually, and his eyes were full of smiles, so I confirmed my guess even more.
……。
I don't know why the aunt went to call her daughter out and didn't move, it should be that the mother and daughter whispered. So I took out the 1,000 yuan in my pocket and put it on the coffee table, and said to the middle-aged man, "Uncle, this is what you secretly stuffed for me last time, right?" It's too much, I can't ask for that much. If you think I'm trying to make it up, a thousand dollars is enough. ……”
I blushed embarrassedly, and then said: "After I went out of your house that night, I went to the hotel, and found that I had no money on me, so I spent some, and then I used a little more in the past few days, so I could only pay you back half." But in the future, if something strange happens to the people around you, you can come to me at any time and ...... it for free. ”
When I gritted my teeth and said this sentence for free, Lao Cai, who was sitting next to me, secretly pinched me. I pretended not to know and smiled awkwardly at the middle-aged man.
It's really embarrassing to say, if you want to pay it back, you can return it all, or if you don't pay it back, don't pay it back at all, what's the matter? It means that I am greedy for money, but my vision is limited, and I dare not be greedy so much?
Actually, at the beginning, I was going to return one thousand and five, and make up a whole number. After all, I've already spent some, and I don't have the money to make up two thousand to pay him back. And the five hundred dollars are almost enough to make up for the punch I took and my hard work.
But Lao Cai didn't let him live or die, and he smashed me down with the big truth of the causal cycle. I saw that he was talking nonsense this time, just trying to convince me, so I didn't agree.
Then we argued for a while, and finally one of us gave in and went back halfway.
But Lao Cai didn't expect that in the end, because of my thin skin, I made a promise that the people around him would be free in the future. That's why he secretly pinched me.
What I didn't expect was that the middle-aged man smiled and pushed the thousand dollars in front of me. Said: "What do you say? Xiaoli, you deserve it. To tell you the truth, in fact, Uncle wants to give you more, because Uncle doesn't know how to thank you, and all he can do is give you some money. But to see Qianqian, it almost cost my uncle his savings in the past few years, so my uncle can only give you 2,000 yuan, and if you don't think your uncle is stingy, Uncle is already very grateful to you. ”
Two thousand dollars is already a lot of money for me, so how can I think he is stingy? So I was about to speak, when I heard footsteps in the hallway. So before I could react, the middle-aged man stood up, put the money away, and stuffed it in my coat pocket.
The middle-aged man had just sat down after doing this, when the aunt and her daughter walked out. "What are you talking about?" she asked. ”
The middle-aged man replied, "I didn't talk about anything, just discuss our daughter's condition with Xiaoli." ”
Then he looked at the girl and said, "Qianqian, look, this is the little gentleman I told you about ...... saved you." ”
The girl looked at me in the direction he was pointing, and I looked at her. She was indeed a little more introverted as her parents said, and when she saw me looking at her, her eyes were a little evasive.
She smiled embarrassedly at me and said, "Thank you, sir......." ”
It seems that she is recovering well, and her little face is no longer pale and bloodless, but a little red.
It should be because she just woke up today, and because she took a shower not long ago, she came out wearing pajamas. Because it's winter, the pajamas she wears are not a few nonsense descriptions of tulle and highlighting her graceful figure like in the movie. Instead, he was dressed in thick shaggy pajamas with two rabbit ears on his hat.
At this time, she was even more beautiful than she was unconscious that night, and she looked very birdish in her pajamas with a very strong girlish atmosphere.
And I also gave full play to my urine after seeing the beauty, nodded to her with a red face, and stammered: "No thanks, no thanks, it's all trivial......." ”
I'm wondering, is it because after I don't live to be twenty years old, the sweet date that the fucking fate gave me is too late? I can actually encounter the plot in my fantasy, isn't this a serious hero saving beauty? According to the next plot development, it doesn't seem so difficult to achieve hugging left and right?
But when I think about it, I can't live to be twenty years old, and I have a fart to hug left and right? ……。
