Chapter 21
Chen Xuefen also saw that the lawsuit was resolved by her son's lawyer, and her hanging heart finally settled down.
Then the blind date should be on the agenda, Chen Xuefen thought of this and smiled.
It's better to choose a day than to hit the day, so let's do it today! After Chen Xuefen made up her mind, she picked out a decent dress and matched it with a pair of good-looking shoes.
Dong Jiu bought it for her, Chen Xuefen tidied herself up casually, and was ready to go to that person's house.
"Go to Kiyobaen."
"Twenty bucks."
Qingbo Yuan is the name of the community, the name is very good, and the driver also knows how to go on this road, so he directly said the price, Chen Xuefen gritted her teeth and agreed.
Twenty yuan is already cheap, and after Chen Xuefen got in the car, the car immediately set off to look at Qingbo Garden.
I'm going to see my sisters who I haven't seen for many years, although it's for a blind date, but I'm still a little happy in my heart, and if the marriage doesn't work out, I can get together with my sisters.
That's good, too.
After driving for about ten minutes, the car came to Qingbo Yuan and waited until it stopped.
Chen Xuefen took out a brand new 20 yuan from her bag and gave it to the driver, got out of the car, and walked all the way to her sister's house.
She mentioned that she had said hello, so she knew how many units were in the building.
"Knock knock--" Chen Xuefen came to the door, and after knocking on the door three times, a little girl's voice came out.
"Who?"
The girl's voice is very crisp, it must be that Nie Yao.
"It's me, Chen Xuefen, your mother knows me."
The last time Chen Xuefen and Su An'an (Nie Yao's mother) met was when Nie Yao and Dong Jiu were children, Chen Xuefen and Su An'an were quite coincidental, and even the time of pregnancy was one day before and after, so Nie Yao and Dong Jiu's birthdays were not a few days apart.
If she remembers correctly, Nie Yao's birthday should have been three days earlier than Dong Jiu.
"Open the door!" Su Anan was preparing to wash the dishes in the kitchen, when she heard a knock on the door, she felt a pimple in her heart, and then thought of Chen Xuefen telling her a few days ago that she would come to see her today, so Nie Yao asked who it was.
I didn't expect it to be Chen Xuefen, who came so soon.
When Nie Yao heard this, she jumped and ran to open the door.
"Hello Auntie." At the moment when the door was opened, Nie Yao also said this.
Chen Xuefen looked up and saw Nie Yao, the girl's face was very cute, the more she looked at it, the more she liked it, I just didn't know what Su Anan thought...
Su An'an stopped in the kitchen when he was about to brush the dishes and chopsticks, casually washed with water a few times, rubbed it, wiped the towel next to him, unbuttoned his apron, and came out.
"It's coming, do it quickly." Su Anan led Chen Xuefen to the living room, asked Chen Xuefen to sit down, and took her hand and said, "Why haven't you contacted me in the past few years?" ”
Speaking of this, Chen Xuefen thought of her dead husband and just smiled bitterly.
Su Anan knew a little about her, but she didn't help at that time because she was really powerless, so she didn't help Chen Xuefen.
In fact, according to Chen Xuefen's character, she may not be able to accept her own help, so why bother to ask for it.
"You know." After Chen Xuefen finished speaking, she was about to ask Su Anan not to mention this matter, but Su Anan spoke again.
"Nie Yao, go pour a glass of water." Su Anan changed the topic very interestingly and continued, and asked Nie Yao to pour Chen Xuefen a glass of water.
"Ahh After Nie Yao heard this, she stopped when she was about to leave, and then turned around and went to the kitchen.
She originally wanted her mother to catch up with this aunt, while she would play with her mobile phone in the room and take a good nap.
After all, the summer afternoon is too sleepy, when the sun beckons in, the curtains are drawn, and the room is so cool that it has to be covered with a blanket, which is suitable for taking a nap, and she has the habit of taking a nap.
She doesn't have this aunt in her impression, but it always seems to make people feel a sense of intimacy.
She felt that she was quite destined for this aunt.
Nie Yao walked quickly to the kitchen, took down a glass, first turned on the faucet and rinsed it, then wiped the cup with a paper towel, and after using the water dispenser to get a glass of water, he took it out, and poured a glass of water for his mother by the way.
As for why she didn't make tea, it was because Su Anan called her to pour water, not make tea, and this aunt shouldn't like to drink tea.
"Auntie, please drink water." Nie Yao stood next to the two of them and put the water on the table.
"Thank you." Chen Xuefen didn't say much, after all, this matter still had to wait until Nie Yao left, otherwise the parties were here, and she was embarrassed to open this mouth.
Chen Xuefen took the water from Nie Yao's hand, she didn't drink water on the way here, and now she was already a little thirsty.
"Why didn't your son come along?" Su Anan asked about a topic.
When the two sisters meet, the best thing to talk about should be their children.
When Chen Xuefen heard this, she was slightly stunned, Dong Jiu was too busy, and besides, she came this time for a purpose, so it was not good to bring Dong Jiu with her.
"He's so busy, he's been resting after a case recently." Chen Xuefen told the truth.
Dong Jiu is indeed too busy, but that was a few days ago, and after being busy for a while, he was idle to deal with small things every day.
"It's good like this, it's like Nie Yao, who doesn't do anything at all." After speaking, Su Anan also glared at Nie Yao, as if to say to look at other people's children, how is it.
After Nie Yao received Su An'an's gaze, she didn't pay much attention to it, because she knew that these were just polite words, but after hearing about the case, she was a little interested and asked casually.
"Auntie, what case is your son taking?"
Hearing that Nie Yao was interested, Chen Xuefen was still a little happy in her heart, and said directly, "It's a small case of celebrity disputes, and he works in a lawyer's firm." ”
"What is your son doing?" Su Anan continued to ask, since he works in a law firm, he must have a good career, after all, this industry is the most profitable, and the water is also the deepest, so he still has to ask what he does.
After all, she also has plans to marry her daughter to Chen Xuefen's son, not only because of the words when she was a child, but also so that Nie Yao can find a good family, Nie Yao is a girl, so she hopes that her daughter can marry well and not have to be wronged. In this way, she is most relieved.
"Lawyer." After hearing this question, Chen Xuefen immediately replied.
After all, if you want to get married, although it is a marriage contract made when you were a child, you still have to ask some about Nie Yao's situation.
"What about Nie Yao? What does Nie Yao do? Chen Xuefen asked.
"She's ......"
Nie Yao saw that her mother began to talk about herself, so she didn't bother to listen, although she was quite interested in the son in Chen Xuefen's mouth, and he was also a lawyer, but she already had Dong Jiu in her heart.
So what the two talked about had nothing to do with her, Nie Yao planned to go back to the room for a nap.
"Mom, I'll go back to my room and take a nap."
Of course, Nie Yao is not an impolite person, although she usually doesn't need to say this at home, and now that the guests are present, she is still more or less well-behaved than usual.
"Okay, this kid has the habit of taking a nap, otherwise he won't be refreshed in the afternoon." When Su Anan heard Nie Yao say this, she also knew that it was Chen Xuefen who was here to make her feel a little uncomfortable, so it was better to let her go back to her room to sleep, which would be more comfortable.
"Really? That's good. Chen Xuefen said with a smile.
"Yes, where's your son?" After Su Anan finished talking about her daughter, she then asked Chen Xuefen.
"He's very careful about resting, but sometimes he's too busy." Chen Xuefen's words are not false, once he has something to do, he can not sleep well for a few days and nights, but after this matter is over, the work and rest are still quite regular.
Before I knew it, it was already half past three while we were chatting.
"I'm going to buy some food, stay for dinner in the evening, and watch TV here for a while?" Su Anan was about to get up and wanted to go grocery shopping.
After speaking, Chen Xuefen also stood up, counting the time, Nie Yao should also wake up, this time Su Anan is not there, and it is inevitable that she and Nie Yao will be a little embarrassed to be alone, and said, "I'll go with you." ”
When they were in their early twenties, sometimes they would go grocery shopping together, go to their respective homes together, and cook their own food, so Su Anan was not surprised by this.
Besides, she still had something to tell Chen Xuefen, waiting for Nie Yao to wake up at home, in case Nie Yao knew in advance, she didn't know how to speak, so she still chose to talk while walking outside.
According to Nie Yao's character, even if she arranged a blind date for her, she might not go, but she still had to try.
"Okay then." Su Anan still agreed, after all, how can a guest come to his own house and let the guest do it himself?
But Chen Xuefen is not a guest, although she has not seen each other for many years, the relationship between the two is not less than half a point.
In this way, the two of them went out together, the hygiene of Qingbo Yuan is very good, there is no garbage in the community, even the garbage cans can be seen everywhere, there is no need to pay attention to whether there is a garbage can in this place, maybe you can see the garbage can in another minute.
Therefore, even the shops outside the community are extremely exquisite.
It's like living in a particularly beautiful place.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, the sun was still very poisonous, and there was still heat all the way around, especially the two people who had just come out of the air-conditioned room, and their bodies seemed to be burning.
Chen Xuefen has long been familiar with this feeling, now she has an air conditioner where she works, and she also has an air conditioner at home, but she is reluctant to turn it on, and will not turn it on until 30 minutes before Dong Jiu gets off work, so that when Dong Jiu comes back from work, she enters the room and feels cold around her.
And Su Anan is also a little accustomed to this feeling, she usually does housework at home, and her husband will do other things, she just needs to take care of the family.
After the two walked out of the community for a while, Chen Xuefen's hand loosened and clenched, she couldn't make up her mind to talk about it, and she was a little embarrassed, in case Su Anan didn't agree... How could she hide her embarrassment?
"Does your daughter have a crush?"
Let's ask this question first, if the answer is not for her to continue, in case after she finishes, Su Anan says that her daughter has a favorite person, it will be even more embarrassing.
When Su Anan heard this, he was a little stunned, what does this mean? Could it be that Chen Xuefen also has ideas in this regard?
"Nope." Su Anan said softly, holding Chen Xuefen's hand a little nervously.
Chen Xuefen can still feel this.
Since Chen Xuefen has already opened this mouth first, then let's take another sentence, Su Anan thought so, and said it a second before Chen Xuefen spoke.
"Do you still remember the agreement we made when Dong Jiu and Nie Yao were children?"
Chen Xuefen nodded, if Su An'an also wanted to tell her about this, it would be easy to do. Thinking of this, Chen Xuefen suddenly became confident.
"Remember, what? Do you have this idea too? Chen Xuefen asked softly.
"Yes, now that the child has a stable job and career, he just doesn't have the heart to fall in love." Su Anan thought about it and said it according to his own thoughts.
"The two of them have set up a baby kiss, why don't you let the two of them have a relationship, and then decide whether they should get married?" Su Anan knows that the trouble of falling in love now is not something that can be decided by the doll who talked verbally when he was a child.
Taste the fireworks in the world slowly with your loved ones, and watch the years in the world go by. Whether it is suitable or not depends on the other party's character, not those words can be decided, both people should have their own opinions, they can only match, not to force marriage, if it is not suitable, then she can't ruin her daughter's happiness because of this sentence, and she can't ruin this agreement because of her own opinion, so she said that it was the best solution.
"Yes, that's what I thought, too." Chen Xuefen's thoughts are indeed the same as Su An'an's.
"Does Dong Jiu have a favorite girl?" Su Anan always felt a little uneasy, so he asked.
If Dong Jiu has a girl he likes and comes to find his daughter, it is really scummy.
"No, I wouldn't have said these things today." Chen Xuefen got to know her son and confirmed that she didn't have a girlfriend before she came to find Su An'an.
"Okay, let's make an appointment. Let the two children meet below. Su Anan said.
Nie Yao is indeed a big boss, she is afraid that if she doesn't arrange it for Nie Yao, she will really be too lazy to fall in love.
"Just the day after tomorrow, right?" Chen Xuefen only dared to be sure that Dong Jiu had nothing to do in the evenings of the past few days, so she chose the day after tomorrow, she planned to tell Dong Jiu when she went home, and let Dong Jiu make preparations tomorrow.
"Prepare for it." Chen Xuefen said what she thought, and Su Anan also nodded on the side, expressing agreement.
Chen Xuefen was relieved at this time, this trip was not in vain, she couldn't help but see Su An'an, the previous friendship and feelings were slowly emerging, and she did what she wanted to do, and she was in a happy mood for a while.
Saying that, the two have walked to the supermarket, and the community is not very far from the supermarket, which is more than a bus stop, less than ten minutes away.
The two of them were used to the temperature outside, but it was still a little hot, after all, it was only three o'clock.
After entering the supermarket together, the two discussed these issues.
"Eh, what do you think of this dish?"
"I really like it."
"After all these years, the taste hasn't changed at all."
"Will you burn this?"
"Yes."
"Then you take the time to teach me in the future, I can't learn, I can't do it well."
On the other side, Nie Yao, who woke up, saw that there was no one at home, and her heart was always empty, but fortunately, she sat on the sofa and watched TV after washing up, thinking that it should be her mother who went out to play with the aunt.
She picked up her mobile phone and sent two messages to Dong Jiu, as always, Dong Jiu still refused, but this was in exchange for some time at noon tomorrow, which was worth it.
It would be rude to love and not love anymore, Nie Yao knows this truth, but she just doesn't give up, how can a boy stand being chased by a girl like this? She also knows that the point is up, and the sincerity is for the sincerity.
But she still wants to chase after her... Dong Jiu brought her a really different feeling, starting from her appearance and loyalty to her character.
Thinking of this, Nie Yao began to think of what the aunt said in the afternoon that her son also worked in a law firm and also joined the celebrity dispute case, wouldn't it be Dong Jiu?
Shouldn't be, how can there be such a coincidental thing in the world, Nie Yao quickly denied her thoughts, she understands these truths that her head likes to be imaginative, if this lawyer is Dong Jiu, she can understand it better.
Su Anan and Chen Xuefen went to the supermarket several times and bought a lot of things, but fortunately met Su Anan's husband, Nie Li, when they went home.
helped carry some things home, otherwise Su Anan and Chen Xuefen would not know how to carry these things home.
After returning home, it was already 5:20, and it was also the point where Dong Jiu and Xu Xiaoxiao were preparing to go out.
Chen Xuefen and Su Anan entered the kitchen together, tied their aprons and began to cook.
After a lot of work, it was already six o'clock in the evening, and it was all ready.
……
At six o'clock in the evening, the sky is already a little dark, and the summer night sky is always too dark, even though it is already six o'clock, it only gives people a dim feeling.
Xu Xiaoxiao walked downstairs, and when she went out, she saw Dong Jiu waving to her, so she ran over, and when she stood in front of Dong Jiu, her face suddenly hurt hotly.
What exactly are you doing? Isn't it Dong Jiu, as for such a big reaction? At this point, the neighbors have already finished eating and are ready to go down for a walk, and someone must have seen it.
When his mother came back, he asked again.
And when Dong Jiu saw Xu Xiaoxiao like this, his heart was already happy, and he said teasingly.
"What? Still blushing? After saying this, Dong Jiu suddenly felt that he was a little unnatural, and he didn't know what to do.
Hearing this, Xu Xiaoxiao immediately patted Dong Jiu's shoulder and said, "How is it possible?" ”
This scene happened to be seen by the neighbor who had just come downstairs, and shouted, "Laugh! ”
Hearing this, Xu Xiaoxiao knew that he was going to be finished, damn it! I'm really afraid of something, just after thinking about this matter and planning to leave the community quickly, I didn't expect the neighbor to ask after a step.
"Ah, ah, Auntie is good." Xu Xiaoxiao pretended not to know anything, quickly stood next to Dong Jiu, and called out to her aunt sweetly.
"This boyfriend? I saw it last time. This is the one who came to the community before, and she called her mother to come over.
When Dong Jiu heard this, he stopped Xu Xiaoxiao from wanting to explain, and said, "Hello Auntie, I'm Xiaoxiao's boyfriend. ”
It's been more than a month since the last misunderstanding, and this person saw that Dong Jiu was wearing formal clothes for the second time, and he was suddenly a little satisfied.
Since she was a child, she has treated Xu Xiaoxiao as her daughter, and now that Xu Xiaoxiao has a boyfriend, she has to take a good look.
"No, Auntie, this is my friend." Xu Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth, still wanting to explain.
But these were fearless struggles, and she didn't listen to her neighbors at all.
"Okay, smile, can't I see this?" The neighbor glanced at Xu Xiaoxiao and looked at it.
The two of them are dressed so decently, and they look like they want the little couple to go out to play, and they have never seen Xu Xiaoxiao put on makeup, and they actually put on makeup when they went out to play today, this answer
And this Dong Jiu, his gaze never left Xu Xiaoxiao at all.
It is said that when you look at the person you like, there will be light in your eyes, and when Dong Jiu's eyes look at Xu Xiaoxiao, there is also a kind of light, mixed with full of love.
A particularly romantic word is called lumens, which is a light degree, the transliteration of English lumen, in simple terms, the brightness that can be felt by the human eye, how many lumens there are in the LED, the sun and the moon can also be calculated, and the person who likes it will shine, which can also be counted.
This kind of meaning is like the person you like will shine, and you are also illuminated by the light, if you want to count how many lumens there are in Dong Jiu's eyes, then he thinks, it should be eight.
It's the inverted eight, infinite.
Xu Xiaoxiao finally gave up the explanation, but this misunderstanding made her feel a little happy.
I really can't figure out my feelings for Dong Jiu.
"Laugh, don't play too late." The neighbor finally told this sentence, she still hopes that Xu Xiaoxiao can come back sooner, and now young people are playing too much, although they are a little pleasing to this man, but there is always something in case.
After all, knowing people and knowing faces does not know the heart, and knowing the heart still has to be further contacted to know.
After the neighbor said this, he also glared at Dong Jiu.
"I took her out to dinner, and I sent Xiaoxiao back after eating." Dong Jiu knew what his neighbor meant, but he was thinking about it in his heart.
He didn't even catch up with Xu Xiaoxiao, how could he do this kind of thing, besides, he wanted to protect Xu Xiaoxiao, this was his minimum requirement, if they couldn't be together, then protect Xu Xiaoxiao.
Seeing Dong Jiu answer like this, the neighbor was relieved.
