Pan Rui moved the dresser to her and sat down, sitting on his lap like a schoolboy.

"First of all I speak, you listen, don't interrupt me, you can do it with a nod."

Pan Rui's chick pecked twice as if he were pecking rice.

"Second, I'm calm now, the fire is gone, and I don't say this to you on impulse. I'm not asking for that pile of makeup, not for the chopping board, not for mopping, not for the mess and nothing, understand?

"Third, don't think about sending me away with two sentences, and you can go on as usual, I'm different from you, you always think that procrastination can solve things, and I like to find a direct solution to things. Got it, right? ”

Pan Rui nodded his head one by one, opened his mouth and was about to speak, but was stopped by Xia Zhi's raised hand: "What do you want to say, after I finish speaking, I will give you the opportunity to express it completely." ”

Pan Rui spread his hands helplessly, and stopped trying to speak.

Xia Zhi took a deep breath at this time: "You have been to my house, do you think my house is the same as yours?" No need to speak, shake your head or nod your head...... Yes, of course it's different, everyone's growth environment is different, I know that this needs to be respected, so in your family, I didn't say anything wrong with your living habits.

"But I also have my own habits, and a lot of things have been like that since I was born, and I can't change them all at once, which will cause conflicts between us. Contradictions, you know? If it's just between me and you, that's fine, but you're a family.

"I have no right and will not ask you to change for me, I can only do it to you, but I will be very uncomfortable with you understand? So I'm telling you, I need a space of my own—a space that probably won't please your eyes. ”

Xia Zhi still had countless words in her heart, but when she spit out this bitter water at once, her head suddenly went blank, and there was silence between the two.

Pan Rui tentatively spoke: "I...... Can you speak? ”

"Say it." She didn't know what to say anyway.

"Summer solstice, I know you dislike our family......"

"I don't dislike ......"

"Are you going to let me say it too? Listen quietly, as you ask me. He sent her back the three chapters of her covenant, and she could only nod.

"I grew up in such an environment, and I can't change it, if you think that you have always been in favor of us, and you feel very wronged, then do as you say."

"You're done?"

"That's it."

Xia Zhi waited for a while, but she didn't see him say anything more, she was very surprised, she listened to his opening remarks, and thought that he was going to have a long speech. She didn't expect him to accept her offer in such a calm situation.

"That'...... I'm going to rent a house? Now it was her turn, and although she claimed that she had not brought it up on impulse, she had not thought carefully about what to do.

"I'm going to rent a house for you, where do you want to live? I don't think I want to live in the village. ”

Even if Pan Rui doesn't say it, Xia Zhi will not rent it in the village. This village is so big, about half of the village knows that she is Pan Rui's girlfriend, and if she rents another house here, who knows what gossip will come out.

"Let's go to the county seat, it's convenient for me to go to work, and by the way, I can see if I can find other jobs."

"Hmm." Pan Rui nodded, "It's okay to talk to my mother, but ......"

"I'll move in two weeks." Xia Zhi immediately continued, "I'm not targeting anyone, Mother Pan is very good to me, I know." ”

Pan Rui stretched out his hand to her, she put her hand into his palm, and he smiled and said, "Can I sit next to you now?" Or do you want to continue to sit on the cold bench? ”

She laughed, and with a hard pull of his hand, he stood up and sat down beside her. He hugged her, lips touching her for a kiss.

"Summer solstice."

"Hmm."

"Are we still married, then?"

She rubbed her nose against his neck and said, "You didn't propose to me, what did you marry?" ”

"It's easy to propose, I mean, when we get married, where do we live? Do you have to buy a house before you marry me? ”

Xia Zhi was stopped by him, usually between the two of them, it was her more to think about the problem than him. She pondered for a moment and said: "If you are willing to buy a house, we will work together, you are not alone, we are two pairs of hands." ”

"Summer Solstice ......" Pan Rui looked very embarrassed, "I told you, this third floor is the ...... my parents decorated for me to get married."

"What about your brother and Pan Lei?"

"My brother still has the fourth floor! And he hasn't graduated yet. Pan Lei doesn't need it, the girl's family, she will marry when she grows up, just leave a room for her. ”

Xia Zhi pouted and said, "It's patriarchy." ”

"Say whatever you want...... I mean, if we don't live at home when we get married, our parents can be very disappointed. ”

"Let's talk about it...... It's really not good, let's rent a house and get married. I didn't say that I won't enter your house in this life, don't make it look like I'm forcing you to break up. She really didn't expect that in the end, it was she who said the words "let's talk about it" and dragged the topic out.

They did not delay, and after eating at noon, they went out to the county center to see the houses under the pretext of going shopping. Originally, Xia Zhi wanted to come and see it by herself on Monday, but Pan Rui was not at ease, thinking that she might be cheated if she didn't know dialect, so she still took advantage of the weekend to watch it together.

In order to save time, they found an intermediary, and after following three visits, they settled on a single room with a balcony of more than 30 square meters in Apple Apartment.

"This apartment building is hotel-managed, newly renovated and rented out and is best suited for singles or small couples. Fully equipped with household appliances and good lighting......"

The intermediary wore a suit and leather shoes and a tie, and seemed to be completely unaffected by the hot Mayday in the south, and his professionalism reminded Xia Zhi of Aunt Zheng, the old landlord in Nanzhou. She glanced at Pan Rui, and he also looked at her, and the two of them smiled heartily.

Immediately met with the landlord and signed a six-month lease contract, with a rent of 4500. It's not cheap in Dahe, but a single room of such specifications can be rented for 1,000 in Nanzhou, and both parties are very satisfied.

After settling the down payment and the agent fee, the keys were handed over, and the landlord and agent were gone.

Pan Rui sighed for a long time: "We rented a house again." In the future, will I live here, or will I live at home? ”

Xia Zhi is watching from the balcony, the house is on the tenth floor, the balcony is facing south, there is no sun here, only a breeze, there is no barrier in front of the apartment building, and the whistle can be faintly heard on the road not far away.

She went into the house and said, "Of course you live in your house, this is my house." ”

"I don't, I'm on you, I'll go wherever you go." He hugged her tightly and refused to let go.

"Then you're not going to work?" She patted him on the back and said.

"That'...... It's okay to come two days a week, right? He reached behind his back and grabbed her hand and moved it down until he reached the back pocket of his jeans.

She felt for something in his trouser pocket, boxy, slightly smaller than the palm of her hand.
