The two chatted in the house for a while, but Zhang Minjing hadn't come back yet.

Xia Muqing saw that her sister kept looking out of the window, so she said, "Sister, Mom Zhi went home and made a call, saying that she might not be back tonight, let us sleep first." ”

Xia Suyuan suddenly said: "She's not coming back, okay." ”

"Hmm."

My sister got up from the bed: "I'll go back to my room and do my homework first." If you're tired, go to sleep. ”

"Okay."

Xia Suyuan turned on the bedside lamp and advised, "Turn off the headlights for me." ”

Then the bedroom went dark in an instant, and with a lock, the door was closed.

Xia Suyuan walked to the side of the bed, and the floor-to-ceiling windows on the veranda still showed the night outside. There are large and small villas in the community, and you can still see the pond not far away from the Xia family.

The pond occupies an acre of land, and the surrounding area is full of flowers and plants. There is a road that goes around the lake, and the trees planted on the edge pass through it from time to time.

The lanterns on the edge of the pond are shadowed in the night.

"Huh."

Curtains cut off the night.

Guyang City is not the provincial capital, but it is indeed the place where Xia Suyuan lived for 18 years.

These eighteen years, elementary, middle, high school. It covers the entire city of Guyang, from the east of the city to the west of the city.

I also met a lot of people.

There is a local family of three books in Guyang City, and the name is Guyang Normal College. When I graduated from high school, some of the people in my class chose that school.

There is no other reason, but after graduation, you can directly become a teacher in Guyang and seek stability.

However, more students dropped out of high school.

The next morning, Xia Suyuan slept rarely until the sun came in through the heavy curtains.

When she walked downstairs, Zhang Minjing sat on the sofa in the living room, and Xia Muqing also sat aside.

When I saw her, I said, "Sister, why did you get up, the housekeeper has already cleaned up breakfast." ”

Zhang Minjing, who was on the side, pushed his glasses: "I gave a toast, on the dining table." After a while, you'll clean up after eating. ”

She changed the newspaper and put it on the coffee table between the two sofas: "There have been activities around the moat in the old town for the past three days, and I will take the two of you around in the evening." ”

"Okay."

On the table, it was said that only a piece of toast was left, but in fact, there was nothing on it, lettuce, omelette and luncheon meat. The salad dressing is squeezed on top. Because it was on a plate, there was a tomato on the side.

Xia Suyuan went to the kitchen to get a knife and fork.

"If you want milk, the glass is in the kitchen, and the milk powder is there. Soak it yourself. ”

The girl put her knife and fork on the plate and replied, "Okay, I know." ”

With that, he went back to the kitchen and began to soak milk powder.

Maybe it's because I've slept for too long, and there is a dull pain in the back of my neck.

Warm water is poured into a tall glass, and the milky white liquid slowly rises.

She returned to the dining room with the glass of milk.

"Mom, have you been home for the past three days?"

Xia Suyuan sat down, holding a knife in one hand and a fork in the other, and the first time she pressed it, she heard a "hmm" from the woman over there.

Immediately afterwards, he followed with another sentence: "Eat without words, eat quickly." ”

“……”

Yes.

As soon as she made the first stroke, her mother heard the sound of plates. Haven't you started eating yet......

Xia Muqing smiled secretly on the side.

Xu is movement was a little loud, and Zhang Minjing, who had just finished talking about Xia Suyuan, turned her head and asked as if she had no intention of intentioning: "Have you finished your homework?" ”
