Lin Haonan knew what Su Siqi meant. He is a man, and such a major event as marriage should certainly be mentioned by him.

But he was a little nervous, and when he was nervous, he wanted to smoke, so he handed one to Su Qirong first, and suddenly remembered that Su Qirong was quitting smoking, and he retracted his hand embarrassedly, so he simply stopped smoking and put the cigarette case back in his pocket.

Su Qirong looked very casual: "It's okay, you can smoke if you want." ”

"No, it's not good to smoke, it's better to smoke less." Lin Haonan plucked up the courage and said: "Uncle, in fact, I want to propose to you this time, I think, I want to marry Siqi." ”

Su Qirong was a little surprised, his daughter said on the phone that she was getting along with Lin Haonan, but she didn't mention getting married!

He groaned a little and said, "You haven't been together for a long time this time, have you?" Isn't it too fast? ”

Lin Haonan hurriedly said: "No, it's not fast at all, although we have been separated for a while, we have always loved each other, I think we are fateful, otherwise we would not come together again so soon, we have an emotional foundation, and we understand each other, because we have been separated for too long, so I don't want to waste time." ”

"Sisi thinks so too?"

"Yes, in fact, she proposed the marriage," Lin Haonan said: "Siqi means, if you are in time, you want to hold a wedding during the New Year." ”

Su Qirong frowned slightly: "It's only three or four months before the New Year, isn't it too hasty, and have you figured out what to do?" Do it at your house, or on my side? ”

"Our plan is to hold a wedding at my family, so my uncle doesn't have to prepare anything, it's all handled by my parents, the wine is done here, and a few tables are invited in the hotel, so that relatives and friends can come to eat and forget the meaning, Siqi ......"

"That's not good, I have to be beautiful when I marry my daughter," Su Qirong interrupted him: "Your house is far away, and it is estimated that relatives and friends here will not be able to go. ”

Su Siqi appeared at the door: "Dad, I don't want you to be tired, and I don't have any brothers and sisters who can help, how can you do it alone?" ”

Su Qirong was very stubborn: "I can listen to you about other things, this matter is not good, otherwise I will not agree." ”

Su Siqi shrugged her shoulders: "Okay, we'll discuss this matter later, let's eat." ”

Seeing that Su Qirong was a little unhappy, during the meal, Su Siqi no longer mentioned the matter of marriage, but started chatting, asking about the recent situation of some acquaintances and friends, Su Qirong answered one by one, and the atmosphere returned to normal.

Su Siqi gulped down the vegetables, and sighed with a greasy mouth: "Taste all the delicious food in the world, or my dad's dish is the best!" ”

Su Qirong glanced at her: "Sycophant! When you eat and drink spicy food outside, how can you remember the dishes made by your father! ”

"I've always remembered it," Su Siqi said, "When I get married, I'll take you over and eat your food every day." ”

went around in a circle, and talked about getting married again, but Su Qirong didn't pick up, and only put a chopstick dish in his daughter's bowl.

The room was cleaned up a long time ago, a two-and-a-half-story small building, Su Qirong arranged for Lin Haonan to sleep on that half floor, there were very few guests in his house, so the house was not commonly used, the south was humid, and there was a faint musty smell when he walked in.

Lin Haonan was a little clean, so he covered his nose, Su Qirong glanced at him and said, "Either I sleep in this house, you sleep in my room." ”

"That's not going to work, uncle, it's a good house." Lin Haonan took a deep breath: "I'll just sleep here." ”

Su Qirong said: "After driving for a day, you are also tired, so rest early." There is water on the table, and when you are thirsty, you drink it yourself. ”

"Thank you, uncle," Lin Haonan thanked him politely, and sent him to the door before closing the door and looking at the room. There are a lot of dirty marks on the white walls. There are also spiders in the corners of the ceiling. The red paint on the window frames had fallen off a lot, the plank bed creaked when it was shaken, and the square table in the middle of the room was so old that it was impossible to see the color, like black, and then like blue. Only the quilt is new, and it still exudes a faint smell of mothballs.

Lin Haonan sat on the edge of the bed in a daze, Su Qirong seemed to have a lot of complaints about their marriage, he didn't know the bottom of his heart, and wanted to go down to talk to Su Siqi, but when he opened the door, he heard the sound of Su Qirong walking on the stairs, and he didn't dare to go down again.

The so-called two-and-a-half-story means that only the back half of the building is built, and the front half is left blank for drying clothes, planting flowers and plants, and so on. Lin Haonan opened the door and walked out, the roof was very flat, the corner of the wall was planted with triangular plum, aloe vera, and a large kumquat tree, and the wall was covered with green creepers, which shivered in the wind.

The moon bends and hangs in the air, like a silver sickle, the stars are finely broken, one in the east, one in the west, all very bright, the night here is different from S City, and it is not the same as Bei'an, it is very quiet, there is a dog barking in the distance, someone scolded twice, and the dog became silent. There was a river at the back of the house, so he could hear the frog call, he hadn't heard the frog call for a long time, and he thought it was a little fresh, and if he listened carefully, he could hear the sound of the frog jumping into the water, very slightly. He could imagine the water waves cutting through the ripples, which must have been circling and circling, silently spreading outward.

From the bustling metropolis to this quiet town, it aroused the feelings of Lin Haonan's literary and artistic youth, and he wanted to sing a poem to the moon, but suddenly those poems that he had memorized were not even remembered for the occasion. He couldn't help but laugh dumbly, after studying for so long, it was actually useless to turn his head up.

The next day, Su Siqi took him for a walk around the neighborhood. There are many waterways in the town, and there are bridges everywhere, Lin Haonan followed Su Siqi up and down the steps, feeling like walking in a maze.

Under the stone bridge, there is an old woman doing laundry, using an ancient mallet, slapping her clothes again and again, making a "popping" sound, which sounds very rhythmic.

"Tired or not? I'll take you to drink soda. Su Siqi returned to her hometown like a fish in water, although she didn't come back often, but she was no stranger at all.

Lin Haonan was a little curious, as if he had rarely heard anyone say soda now.

Su Siqi dragged him up and down the bridge again, and walked into a small alley paved with bluestone slabs, and not long after entering, there was a small shop specializing in soda, with sweet and sour orange water in a small glass bottle, which was the taste of Lin Haonan's childhood. He was pleasantly surprised: "There is still this orange water, I haven't drunk it for a long time." ”

"That's," Su Siqi smiled a little proudly: "We also have some in the big city, but we have what we have, and the big city may not have it." ”

The two of them sat on a bench, drinking soda while watching passers-by chatting.

At this time, two girls came over to buy soda to drink, and they leaned on the counter and talked to the proprietress and said, "Sister Xiangxiang, we just saw a big star." ”

The proprietress said, "What a big star, haven't you heard that a big star is coming?" ”

The girl with a ponytail said: "Actually, we don't know each other, but that man is really handsome, tall, with a pair of sunglasses on his face, and he wears stylish clothes, and drives a super beautiful car, just like a big star." ”

The proprietress said: "You don't talk about drafts, how can you tell if he's handsome or not when you wear sunglasses?" ”

Another girl with short hair said: "For a few minutes he took off his sunglasses, and we could see very clearly that he was really handsome, anyway, I had never seen such a handsome man, and he was very temperamental, as if his every move was different from others." ”

The proprietress smiled and said, "You two girls, you know how to look at handsome guys all day long." ”

The ponytail girl said: "He's a rich man, if not a star, and we've never seen that car in this place, I remember the last time I saw it in a magazine, it's called ...... I can't remember what it is, it's expensive anyway. ”

The little boss was very interested in the car and asked her, "What sign do you see?" Maybe I know. ”

The pony-tailed girl recalled it carefully and said, "It's a triangle, orange, with a few bars in it." ”

The short-haired girl added: "The bars inside are like two M's set together, one long and the other flat. ”

The little boss was excited at once: "Really, you read that right? That's Maybach! Super car! Where did you see it? ”

When Su Siqi heard this, her heart was shocked, Maybach, there was a Maybach in the town......

The short-haired girl said, "It's Qinghua Road, he got out of the car to buy water to drink, and seemed to be asking the people in the store for directions." ”

The proprietress said: "It must be passing by, who in our town has such a generous relative?" ”

The little boss was a little uncontrollable, "I'll take a look and I'll be back immediately." He rode away on an electric car.

The proprietress said angrily: "I know luxury cars all day long, luxury cars, I can't afford to buy them, see what's the use, and it's not like you can see the car back at a glance." ”

The two girls covered their mouths and smiled, and said, "Sister Xiangxiang, you are really, you can't afford to look at it?" ”

Lin Haonan was talking to Su Siqi, and seeing that she didn't reply, he turned his head and was taken aback, "What's wrong with you?" The face is so ugly? Isn't it uncomfortable? ”

"I'm a little dizzy," Su Siqi stroked her forehead, "I was probably in a hurry just now, it's okay, just take a rest." ”

Lin Haonan put down the soda in his hand and helped her gently rub her temples, "Is this better?" ”

"Better." Su Siqi closed her eyes and said, "It's autumn, the sun is still so poisonous, suffocating." ”

Lin Haonan said: "There is water everywhere in your place, when the sun is shining, the heat rises, and it all pounces on people, it is a little uncomfortable to stay outside for a long time, let's go back." ”

Su Siqi sat still, and after a while said, "I haven't finished my soda yet." ”

In fact, there was only a little bit of the bottom bottle left, Lin Haonan said: "It's almost gone, if you want to drink it, I'll buy another bottle, let's drink it while walking." ”

Su Siqi shook her head: "If you don't go back now, there are still many places I haven't taken you to see." ”

Lin Haonan saw that she was a little listless, and wanted to let her rest for a while, so he didn't urge again.

Soon the little boss came back and said in frustration: "Gone, I didn't watch." ”

The proprietress laughed and said, "It seems that the luxury car has nothing to do with you." ”

"But I inquired, and the person was asking for directions, asking how to get to the farm machinery station?"

"Smack!" Su Siqi's bottle fell to the ground and shattered.

Lin Haonan looked at her: "What's wrong?" ”

"Hands are sweaty and slippery." Su Siqi turned her head and said to the proprietress, "I'll drop the bottle and make up some money." ”

"It doesn't matter if you give five cents or not." The proprietress waved her hand haughtily: "Remember to help next time." ”

"A foil is a must." Su Siqi walked over and took out a dollar and put it on the counter: "The money also has to be made up." He said to Lin Haonan again: "Let's go." ”
