Waiting for Chu Mingguo to come back with a tail, Zhao Dahu jumped up from the stool, "Xiao Gong." ”

Xiao Zongchen nodded, "Hmm." ”

"Wash your hands, and you're ready to eat." Chu Xi smiled at Xiao Zongchen, as gentle as before, and then nodded his chin at Zhao Dahu.

Zhao Dahu had already washed his hands, and knew that Chu Xi was asking him to serve the meal together, so he hurriedly walked over, "You guys hurry up and wash your hands, I'll go serve the rice." ”

Ten minutes later, everyone was seated at the dinner table.

After yesterday's incident, Xiao Zongchen felt a little awkward in his heart, and there was a trace of inexplicable panic when he looked at Chu Xi.

There is also some guilt.

He thought about it seriously, and thought that no matter how he looked at it, this decision was not wrong......

However, it is one thing to be sensible, and it is another thing to be emotionally uncontrolled.

Guilt, weak heart, can't dissipate.

"Xiao Xiao, do you want to drink some soup mat first?" Chu Mingguo noticed his wandering mind and called him.

Xiao Zongchen came back to his senses and said politely: "No, thank you." ”

Zhao Dahu happily ate for a while, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, looked up at the opposite side, and then looked at Chu Xi next to him, stunned, and then buried himself in eating.

He couldn't quite understand why it was so weird, but he knew that food didn't taste good when it was cold......

Not talking at the dinner table is a kind of table manners, but for the Chinese people, not talking when eating, especially when there are guests at home, is also not very polite, so that the guests will be more restrained A bad way of hospitality.

Nowadays, with the development of the economy, it is too common to invite customers to eat and talk about things, and many things are established at the table.

Chu Xi saw that the three of them wanted to say something to ease the atmosphere, but they were awkward and didn't know what to say, they were about to fidget, and they were empathetic, "Dad, are you still comfortable today?" ”

"Yes." It's hard to say things at work, originally these three words are fine, but finally a topic came up, and it can't be over in a second, so Chu Mingguo said two more words, "Because of many years of work experience and habits, I have formed an inertia to quickly enter the work state, so there is nothing unsuitable." ”

When the words fell, Chu Mingguo felt that after saying this, it seemed that after saying this, it could be regarded as the end of the topic, and after hesitating, he heard Chu Xi open his mouth again, "Do you get off work so late every day?" ”

You, naturally, refer to Xiao Zongchen and Chu Mingguo.

Chu Mingguo looked at Xiao Zongchen, and Xiao Zongchen also went to see Chu Mingguo, and the two made a move to look at each other almost at the same time.

Chu Mingguo smiled and said first, "Not necessarily, but most of them are like this." ”

When a certain scientific research project is a great success, and after it is completed perfectly, everyone will leave work early to relax.

Xiao Zongchen nodded, "Hmm." ”

Chu Xi was confused for a moment, and Zhao Dahu, who was trying to eat, almost bared his teeth and grinned.

Lin Zhouxu and Cheng Yu are both good players in the base like them, but they are not as untalkative as them......

His teeth hurt when he heard it.

"Do you want to reserve your meal tomorrow?" Chu Xi took a chopstick dish, put it in his bowl, and then added, "Lunch and dinner." ”

"No need." Chu Mingguo directly refused, "We are sometimes busy, and we are not sure when to get off work. You take good care of yourself, if you don't want to cook, go to the cafeteria to eat, and I will prepare a meal ticket for you. ”

When you are busy, not only are you not sure when you will get off work, but you can't guarantee that you will eat on time.

Chu Xi looked at Xiao Zongchen, and then saw Xiao Zongchen nodding again, affirming Chu Mingguo's statement, "That's the case." ”

"......" Chu Xi, "Okay, I see." ”

not only knew that the two of them were busy with work, but also knew that they couldn't talk about the topic.

So, let's eat.

However, with Chu Xi's words, it can be regarded as a buffer, and although the next meal is silent, it is okay.

After the meal, Zhao Dahu wanted to wash the dishes, but was driven away by Chu Xi and asked him to go back to rest quickly. As for the next-door neighbor Xiao Zongchen and her father Chu Mingguo, when she drove Zhao Dahu away, they had already taken the initiative to go to the kitchen to wash the dishes.

By the time Chu Xi closed the courtyard door, the two of them had already been silent and cooperative.

Xiao Zongchen rolled up his sleeves and washed the dishes carefully, while Chu Mingguo took the dishes he had washed, dried them, and put them in the cupboard.

Chu Xi stood at the door and smiled, "Then I won't do it." ”

"Go wash up." Chu Mingguo smiled and turned back to talk to her.

Xiao Zongchen was a little embarrassed, he felt that his current behavior of washing dishes was like a hairy boy in his father-in-law's house, diligent and ......

Thinking of this, he froze as he washed the dishes, and quickly drove away the mess in his mind.

"I'll wait." Chu Xi took two steps to the kitchen, watched the two of them work together, and said with a smile, "You guys have cooperated like you've gone through thousands of times before." ”

Thousands of times may sound exaggerated, but the tacit understanding between the two is really high.

Barely have to look at another person to reach out.

"Estimate the time it takes to wash a dish, take the median, and it's good." Xiao Zongchen felt the gaze falling on his body and replied, "Practice makes perfect. ”

His back is slightly bent, but he still looks tall and tall, like a wine that has precipitated mellow years, elegant and pleasing to the eye.

Chu Xi had never seen Xiao Zongchen look at home like today, and now it seems that he is really a little surprised and curious.

Chu Mingguo was a little nervous when he saw Chu Xi's eyes fall on Xiao Zongchen, but reason made him have to respect this daughter he owed a lot, so he could only wait for the curiosity in his daughter's eyes to disappear before diverting her attention.

"Is your uncle busy?" Chu Mingguo, "Didn't come to dinner today?" ”

Chu Xi took his eyes off Xiao Zongchen and replied, "He asked people to talk a little, today the principal brought a few teachers and said that he was going to pick him up and wash the dust, so he couldn't come over." If you want to get together, it's up to you. If you have time, let's just go over to him. ”

He came here to have to be approved at various levels, and they went over there, and the procedures were relatively simple.

"Okay." Chu Mingguo nodded, kept moving his hands, wiped the last bowl clean and put it in the cupboard.

Xiao Zongchen also straightened up, wiped his hands, and took off the apron on his body. Just as he was about to hang back to his place, he saw Chu Xi stretch out his hand.

The place where the apron hung was right behind her......

Xiao Zongchen paused and handed over the apron.

During this period, I did not go to see Chu Mingguo.

Chu Mingguo: "......"

Although the previous things have been explained clearly, now it seems that the daughter and Xiao Zongchen seem to have a more tacit understanding......

This tacit understanding gave him a little headache.

Xiao Zongchen has the same nature of work as him, and he will ...... in the future
