Suddenly, Zhou Yu said with annoyance: "Okay boss, can you not be so verbose, you can bring my wife and children to me, and bring the old man back to China by the way." The place to live has also been arranged for you, and you will call the second child directly to pick it up when the time comes. ”

I was suddenly paused, was I talking to Zhou Nian on the phone? No wonder it's in the middle of the night, because it's daytime in the United States. Come to think of it, the wedding date is approaching, and it is time for them to return to China.

pulled the corners of his mouth, turned around and was about to walk to the bedroom, but he heard the sound of footsteps approaching behind him, and then Zhou Yu raised his voice behind him: "Jia Ru? ”

I looked back at him, and the dim light hit him, softening his lines. Seeing that I didn't say anything, he approached directly, and when his eyes fell on my face, he asked, "Why are you leaving without making a sound?" ”

I laughed when I heard this, where can I go in a room?

However, when I opened my mouth, I asked directly: "Your father and eldest brother are going back to China?" ”

His eyes flashed, "You heard me?" ”

"What is the weakness of the heart? I heard and heard. Looking at his expression, he couldn't help but say angrily, but he didn't admit it: "How can I have a weak heart?" The wedding date is approaching, so naturally I have to call them back. ”

"How are you going to arrange them?"

"Of course it can't be arranged with you, don't worry, let them live in my previous house."

How similar is this scene to that time? The contradictions first went from accommodation to words and deeds, and finally peeled off the cocoon to reveal the truth behind it, step by step, Zhou Yu and I went from staying together to separating. If it was because of the grievances of the previous generation, the Zhou family didn't like me before, but now? Did Zhou's mother's death evolve into a direct vendetta? It seems like a tough battle that I can't avoid.

I didn't want to talk more about this, but I just turned around and was pulled by Zhou Yu again, "Why are you in a hurry?" I'm hungry and looking for something to eat, what can you cook for me? ”

I looked at him obliquely, "Can't you make your own if you want to eat?" ”

"Originally, I was going to make a random noodle or something, but since you're up too, why don't you fry a steak?"

Eating steak in the middle of the night? That's it. I glanced at him and dropped the words, "Wait." He walked past him into the kitchen, and when he rummaged through the fridge for ingredients, he followed, and said with a grin, "I'll just wait here to eat, and you'd better spread another poached egg for me." Hearing his words, he cleared his throat again, frowned slightly and asked, "Is your throat uncomfortable?" ”

"No, it's a little itchy."

"There's a throat lozenge in the cabinet outside the door." I reminded him.

But seeing that the man in the corner didn't mean to move at all, he still leaned lazily against the door and looked at me.

There were pears in the refrigerator, so I simply took advantage of the time to soak the steak in red wine and took one out and peeled it. Seeing this, he came over and asked, "Is Sydney made with steak?" Or make a salad? Actually, I don't have to be so delicate, I just have a stomach, just have a steak. ”

Laugh at! At the same time as the knife was scratched, the finger instinctively shrank, but I saw a cut on the thumb, which didn't seem to be deep, but it only took a few seconds to see blood gushing out. I was inexplicably stunned, and my finger was cut that year, and the wound was not good......

Why do I have the illusion that history is repeating itself?

Zhou Yu walked quickly, took my hand and rushed to the faucet, and whispered: "What are you thinking?" My hand was scratched and I was still there in a daze. "The blood was washed away by the water, and the wound was only a white scratch, and the pain only then did it resist the nerves.

Zhou Yu grabbed my wrist and walked out again, and when I came out with the medicine box, I came back to my senses, and when I saw that he was about to wrap gauze around my fingers, I hurriedly stopped: "No, just a band-aid." ”

In fact, the wound is not deep, but the blood gushing out at the first scratch is a little scary, and it is much slighter than when the finger was cut with a kitchen knife that year.

But Zhou Yu compared it and objected: "Absolutely not, in case the knife is infected with tetanus, go to the hospital first." ”

…… Where is it serious enough to go to the hospital? And now it's the middle of the night, and the rice grains are still sleeping in the room, do you want to leave the rice grains at home alone, or wake up the rice grains and go to the hospital?

Zhou Yu finally stopped talking, and his face was sulky. I ignored him, and when I took out the band-aid from the medicine box and tore it open, he snatched it away, and when he finished pasting, he grabbed my hand and rubbed my fingertips, and there was a slightly raised scar on the index finger, which was left over from that year.

My heart fluttered, and I asked him lightly, "Do you know where this scar came from?" ”

He raised his eyes, and his dark eyes looked at me calmly, "Needless to say, you must have cut it again when you were cooking." ”

I smiled and said, "I once wanted to make dumplings, and I hurt myself when I chopped the dumpling filling." Then the wound tossed back and forth for several months, saying that it was not easy to pull the nerve, and it was repeatedly injured, and then the doctor almost said that my finger was useless, and finally it was recovered, but it was scarred. ”

"So you don't take this injury seriously?"

Listening to Zhou Yu's strange tone and staring at his eyes, in the end, my heart sank slightly, he really didn't remember the origin of this wound and when it happened.

I still remember how many times he was nervous about my finger wounds, but the wounds were always slow to heal due to various conditions, and the old doctors in the hospital felt headaches when they saw us. Now that time has passed, he rubbed my scar but forgot it.

Pulled out his finger to change the topic: "Do you still eat the steak?" If you don't eat it, you have to pour out the wine, otherwise it will be overpickled. ”

"Wait."

The two words I threw to him just now, and now he threw them back to me. Soon there was a crackling sound of frying in the kitchen, and I shook my head, knowing that I would do it, but he was going to toss me. Within five minutes, he walked out with a plate.

When he saw that he had cut the pears into slices and placed them in a circle, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said in a low voice: "Sydney pears are used to cook pear water, not to be plated." ”

Zhou Yu was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then smiled on his face, "You see me coughing, are you going to boil pear water for me to drink?" ”

Because I didn't want him to be too proud, I flatly denied it: "You think too much, I want to cook it and give some rice grains to drink in the morning." As a result, he didn't buy it: "Come less, the rice grains have no cough and no pain, why do you want to drink pear water?" ”

I smiled and responded, "Summer relieves the heat and reduces the fire." ”

"I'm going to fire too!"

"Cook it yourself."

"Jia Ru!" Someone grinded his teeth and pronounced my name, but suddenly pushed the plate in front of me, and the steak in it had been cut into small pieces, and I looked at him suspiciously, and heard him say, "You eat the steak, and I will eat the pear." As he spoke, he really picked up a piece of Sydney pear with a fork and put it in his mouth, and he bit it loudly.

I was not polite to him, I picked up the beef with a pair of chopsticks and ate a piece, the meat was tender and just right, it should be six to seven minutes cooked, the juice of the red wine penetrated into it, and there was the aroma of red wine when I bit it. When I finished eating, I saw him picking up a piece of Sydney pear angrily, and I couldn't help but smile and ask, "You really don't eat it?" It's not that you're hungry. ”

He said, "My throat is itchy." ”

Well, since my heart is so strong, then I am not reluctant. This piece of Wagyu beef should have been bought by him, and the meat quality is very good, much higher quality than the steak I bought at the supermarket. When I picked up the last piece of beef and put it in my mouth, the person on the other side said, "You really don't leave me a piece." ”

After a pause, he raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile, "You want to eat?" ”

He muttered to himself, "A steak cost me two hundred dollars, but I didn't get a bite." ”

This steak costs two hundred? Then the piece I clipped to the chopsticks is not a few dozen dollars? Suddenly, a head blocked my vision, and by the time I reacted, the chopsticks were empty. Over there, Zhou Yu chewed with a satisfied face, as if this bite of beef was delicious, and then he ate it with my chopsticks......

The corners of my mouth twitched and I lowered my chopsticks. The man on the other side had to fork a piece of pear inch by inch and proposed: "Sydney pear is good, do you want to try it?" My eyes suddenly froze, "No. ”

got up and walked to the bedroom, and Zhou Yu chased after me two steps behind him, "Why are you suddenly angry?" ”

Angry? It should be, there was a knot in his chest, he turned his eyes back and stared at him, and said in a shallow voice: "I don't like to share pears with others." "All the fruits in this world can be eaten separately with others, but the pear is not willing to be shared with him, the implication is too bad. When he was stunned, he broke free of him, walked directly into the door, closed the door, and locked it.

After a moment of silence, I walked to the edge of the bed and was just about to lie down, when I heard a deep voice outside the door piercing through the door panel: "I didn't think about it that much, it's just ...... I just want to tease you, Jia Ru, I won't share pears with you in the future. ”

If there is a pool of still water in your heart, it will inevitably be swept through the waves at this time.

He understood the reason why I was angry, but he didn't know if the last sentence wanted to say that he would no longer share pears with me, or that he would no longer be separated from me.

When I got up in the morning, I opened the band-aid and looked at it, and the wound had healed, and the red knot was growing. This time, it was obvious that it would not be as painful as the last time, so after washing up, I changed to a new band-aid to prevent infection.

Mi Li's summer classes are over, so I don't need to call him too early, and after making sure that Zhou Yu is still in the house, I took my bag and went to work in the office. When Zhou Yu's phone came in at noon, it was Mi Li's voice that picked up: "Mom, where are you?" ”

With a move in my heart, I asked in turn, "Where are the grains of rice now?" ”

Mi Li: "Dad said it's just outside your place of work." ”

I immediately grabbed the phone and walked out, "Wait for mom there, mom will come out right away." When I got off the elevator and walked out of the building, I saw Zhou Yu's car parked on the side of the road, and Mi Li poked her head out of the window of the back seat and called me: "Mom, I'm here." ”

Walk over quickly, let Mi Li retract her head first and then ask Zhou Yu, "Why are you here?" ”

"This kid can't stay idle at home, and he said he was coming to you, so he brought him here."

"Have you eaten?" I asked.

Zhou Yu knocked on his watch, "Did you say we could eat this point?" Mi Lixue's father also tapped on his mobile phone watch, "Mom, I'm so hungry, I want to eat beef." ”

Eating beef? There don't seem to be any steakhouses around here. I couldn't help but propose, "Would it be nice to take you to a steak in the evening?" ”

Mi Li shook his head: "Don't want steak, I want to eat beef hot pot." ”

I looked at Zhou Yu, it must have been his idea.
