Chapter 004: He

Mom sat down on the chair, took a small cup of tea, took a sip of it, and said, "In the past, I always thought that his identity was really different from our family, and I didn't want you to follow the road I walked, Mom knows how bitter and difficult that road is." And the difference between him and you is not the difference between me and your father back then. So, even if you know you like it, Mom is firmly against it. During that time, you kind of blamed me, right? ”

Mom has always been immersed in the pain of losing her father, or immersed in memories, and rarely communicates with Dong Xiaokui. Unexpectedly, there have been a lot of exchanges this year, and this time I am even more calm.

When Dong Xiaokui heard this, she felt very happy, and immediately squatted down and hugged her mother, and said coquettishly: "Mom, I know that you are for my good, how can I blame you?"

"At the time, I thought he might just think that you were different from the girls he had seen, and that it wouldn't be new after a while. You'll also know other people, maybe it's faded. The mother recounted, patted her on the back, and said, "So, I am very happy that you stayed in Jincheng to work." Later, I heard you say that you have been busy with work, and I didn't see you mention him. I just thought, it's about fading. So, when you went to the mountains to cover the news, I guess it was him who called, called home, and asked where you went. I didn't tell him, I didn't tell you. However, now that he thinks about it, he seemed to be in a hurry at that time. At that time, it was him, right? ”

Dong Xiaokui didn't expect Xu Er to call home and ask where she was, even her mother could hear his anxious tone, this cold and self-contained man was so messed up because he couldn't find her.

Her nose was sore, and she just looked down at her own shadow, stretched by the wall lamp, leaving only faint traces. Everyone is as salty and indifferent to people as this shadow, but for those who care about you, it is like air, and if you occasionally find that you are not there, you will be very anxious.

Dong Xiaokui looked at the shadow and replied, "Hmm." It's him. ”

"I think it's him, too. At that time, I thought that if this is really a good person and can afford your future, my mother will not say anything. A few days ago, I went to the Taoist temple, and when it came to marriage, the Taoist chief said, "One person, one blessing, everything follows fate, don't force it'." Mom thought that she was always stopping you, and she won't stop you now, but you have to be sure of it. Mom patted Dong Xiaokui and sighed lightly.

Dong Xiaokui couldn't help nodding, but she didn't understand why her mother suddenly changed her opinion of Xu Er, was it because he called her in a hurry, but he still patiently asked her where she went? She didn't think so. So, she cautiously asked, "Mom, why do you suddenly think he's good?" ”

"Don't you think she's good?" Mom asked rhetorically. This tone made Dong Xiaokui stunned, she used to dream of having a friend-like conversation with her mother. However, my mother has always been cold. Now, my mother actually made fun of her. Dong Xiaokui was a little unconvinced, and shouted in confusion: "Mom." ”

Mom put the teacup aside and poured a glass of rice wine as she had done for many New Year's Eve years in previous years. Many years ago, my father and mother would drink it on New Year's Day, and it is said that when they got married, they would have a glass of rice wine.

The rice wine is warmed by hot water, and it has a strange aroma. Dong Xiaokui helped her mother warm the wine. Mom seemed to be caught in a memory, and said with some self-reproach: "Today, he reminds me of your father." Back then, I was also afraid of thunder and firecrackers, so for so many years, you have been setting off firecrackers to welcome the new year. If you haven't been at home for the past three years, Xiaohuai has gone. Mom is more selfish, but she is afraid of herself, but she didn't expect that you have always been afraid of thunder, but in fact, you are also afraid of firecrackers. ”

Dong Xiaokui couldn't stand it, so she interrupted her mother's words and comforted her: "Mom, what are you talking about." I'm not afraid. ”

Mom ignored it and said to herself: "Just now, I saw him, and the first thing I did when I lit a firecracker was to quickly cover your ears." That's when I understood. I've always felt like I cared about you, but not as much as he did. After so many years, you didn't even realize that you are actually afraid of firecrackers. ”

For Xu Er's actions, Dong Xiaokui was surprised and moved. She was amazed at the carefulness, thoughtfulness, and genuine affection of this proud man. But she didn't like her mother's self-blame, so she held the hot rice wine to her mother and said, "That's just a small thing." ”

"He's a member of a big family, and it's said that he's the heir, so it's good to think of that." Mom said.

Dong Xiaokui was a little confused about the situation, what kind of charm did Xu Er have, so that his mother was talking for him. Dong Xiaokui was very suspicious, but her mother continued: "I can cook for you, and it's not bad to cook." In the past, your father told me that a man who can cook will live and be better for his wife. ”

"It turned out to be Dad's theory. When I said how to cook once, my mother's opinion of him changed. Mom, you're too superstitious. Dong Xiaokui pouted.

"What superstition, you look at Hexiangdu's good to his wife, how many of them can't cook? And this cloud to the town? My mother immediately gave examples of uncles, uncles, and uncles, and all of them moved out.

"Mom, you have no scientific basis for this, it's not convincing." Dong Xiaokui shook her head.

"Why is it not convincing?" Mom drank the rice wine, and her voice was louder than hers.

Dong Xiaokui looked at her mother, and her mother also looked at her. They looked at each other, smiled happily, and sat down in their chairs. Both of them realized a problem: Dong Xiaokui should have tried her best to say that Xu Erhao was good, and her mother tried her best to pick on her.

This time, it's the role reversed. The mother and daughter laughed for a while, and the mother smiled, and said, "Xiaokui, you are also older." You have to think about finding the right person. Today, although this surname Xu has performed well, it does not mean that I agree with you 100%. If he can't handle his family's affairs, you have to take it easy for me, don't be stupid and lose yourself. ”

"Mom, you can rest assured. I'm measured. Dong Xiaokui smiled and hugged her mother's arm.

Mom patted her hand, looked incredulous, and said, "It's strange to be measured." I don't know how to check it. Dong Xiaokui, I can tell you: Men like women, but they don't like women to be wives, just like men like to watch women smoke, but absolutely their wives smoke. Therefore, Xiaokui, love is there, although it is affectionate, but don't blame my mother for antiques, it's better to stop at courtesy. ”

"Mom, what do you think your daughter is? However, today I actually moved the phrase 'affection, stop courtesy'. In the past, you hated what your father told you the most. Dong Xiaokui likes to chat with her mother like this, she feels like a friend, very comfortable.

"That's what your dad told your grandfather. He asked me to go to the movies, missed the car, couldn't come back in time, and at the hotel where I stayed in the county, your grandfather wanted to discount my legs. Your father stood in front of me, grabbed your grandfather's feather blanket, and said, 'I have a love affair with Xiaojia, stop being polite, and have no deviant behavior.' Your dad is like Sister Jiang facing the enemy. That's what I know. I like that. Mom said happily. Maybe it's because she drank rice wine, maybe it's because time has finally lightened her sadness, she is now willing to share her father's goodness, and she dares to tell her daughter Yun lightly about the past when she thinks about it alone, but she is sad to the extreme.

There are still sporadic firecrackers in my ears, and the man I love lives next door. My mother, who has always closed herself, has gradually opened her heart. Dong Xiaokui suddenly felt that there was a morning light in the dark night sky.

Later, Dong Xiaokui also drank a few glasses of millet wine with her mother, and she asked some things about her father. Mom also seemed to have been suppressed for a long time and confided in one go. Later, the sporadic sound of firecrackers finally stopped, and there was silence all around. Mom was a little sleepy, Dong Xiaokui asked her to rest, and she was alone in the living room to keep the New Year.

Xu Er was really tired and went to sleep, but he was very well-behaved and didn't come to harass her again. Dong Xiaokui kept watch in the living room until the morning light was faint, she boiled water to wash her face, sacrificed with her mother, and cooked. Cooking is done, Xu Er hasn't gotten up yet.

Dong Xiaokui went upstairs, but Xu Er looked like a child, still asleep. This guy has rarely slept in the world, and even when he does, it's a light sleep. But he never thought that he could sleep like this, it seems that this time is enough for him to be tired, and he probably feels peaceful here.

She reached out to caress his eyebrows, but before she could touch them, he opened his eyes and smiled, and said, "Happy New Year, Stone." ”

Dong Xiaokui was a little embarrassed, coughed, cleared his throat, and said, "It's three poles on the sun, it's time for you to get up." ”

Xu Er said with a sigh: "Xiaokui, it shouldn't, it shouldn't." ”

"What shouldn't you?" Dong Xiaokui asked while making the bed.

"You shouldn't say this vulgar word, it's too rich in meaning." Xu Ersha has a presence. Dong Xiaokui probably knew that this guy was ruining words again, but he still pretended not to know and said, "Really? I don't know. ”

"My stones are always pure. You don't know that even those who made up the words in the first place are mostly vulgar. He said, the look was like those experts in the forum, Dong Xiaokui finally couldn't hold it back, and said with a smile: "Let's go, wash up and eat." ”

Xu Er grabbed Dong Xiaokui and said, "Wait." My mother-in-law seems to have changed everything about me and has acquiesced in who I am. Hmph, I can't play like I normally would. ”

This guy is really good at observing words and feelings, and he can actually see that his mother has been keeping a straight face behind him, but he is actually acquiescing to his identity. Dong Xiaokui's face changed, and he slandered him, saying, "You think too much, but my mother still doesn't agree with us." ”

"Come on. Big New Year's lies. You monkey, you can't escape from my palm. You're still lying to me. Hum. Xu Er was proud.

"Ah, the story that the Buddha and Wukong had to tell? You are so impure. Dong Xiaokui laughed.

Xu Er ignored her with a straight face, and then took her hand until the dining room before letting go. Mom ate a small bowl, the lion dancer outside came, Mom was busy going out to thank the gift, so she went out, and only two people were left to eat.

After eating for a while, Xu Er suddenly said, "Dong Xiaokui, I have another family business with me at home." ”

Dong Xiaokui took a meal with chopsticks, but his mood was as calm as water, he raised his eyebrows to look at him, rolled his eyes, and continued to eat as if nothing had happened.

"Hey. Did you hear that? Xu Er's tone was a little displeased, probably he thought that Dong Xiaokui should be nervous and gloomy, but Dong Xiaokui's performance was too calm.

"I heard it, your family has a family business with you. What is the origin of the other party? Military, political, business, or scholarly families? Dong Xiaokui was dealing with a chicken wing, and her speech was slurred, and her attitude seemed to be indifferent.

Xu Er only ate with his head bored and did not answer. Dong Xiaokui finally finished dealing with the chicken wings, and seeing that he didn't react, he couldn't help but say: "I said Zhonglin, don't you say half of this, leave half of it?" I kept pricking up my ears and waited for the next step, but you didn't say anything. It's really not like your style. ”

"You have no conscience, aren't you worried?" Xu Er put the dishes and chopsticks aside, indicating that he would not eat them, and he was a little angry.

Dong Xiaokui smiled slightly, feeling that Xu Er was so childish, it really made people laugh and cry. So she asked with great sincerity: "What kind of order did you order?" ”

"Although the other party is not from a family, it is also from the military. I've met that woman a few times, well, how can I say that? It's beautiful, with hair like clouds, like a waterfall; Tall, you have to be as tall as me, and you can be taller than me in high heels. The facial features are good, well, the skin is very good, and the skin is better than snow. There is no need to emphasize the knowledge, it is said that my grandfather also liked this woman. Xu Er narrated, looking very excited.

Bah, think I don't know? It's just that I'm crazy and worried. I'm not as good as you want. Therefore, Dong Xiaokui did not have any frustration or worry after hearing this, but calmly picked up another chicken wing and continued to gnaw.

"Stones, don't say it quickly. Don't take food out of gas. Taking food out of gas is not good for digestion. Xu Er leaned back in his chair and kept staring at Dong Xiaokui.

Dong Xiaokui bit a chicken wing, frowned slightly at him, and said with a smile: "Which eye of yours is not happy to see me?" On the first day of the new year, I never made a block for myself. This is a day that portends good luck for the coming year. I want to eat and drink well. ”

"Dong Xiaokui." Xu Er was finally displeased and got up from his chair.

"Well, chicken wings." Dong Xiaokui was not surprised, still gnawing on chicken wings in her mouth, and replied vaguely. Anyway, after getting along with this guy for a long time, she has practiced not being shocked by the instantaneous changes in the face of him. Because the young master's temper that this guy usually never has is all shown in front of her, and it is just the young master's temper, but she likes him to trust her like this and show her all his joys, sorrows, and sorrows.

"Aren't you worried at all? Before, I was engaged to Ouyang Wei, and you still want to abandon me or something. You're not reacting at all right now. Xu Er said.

Recently, many people seem to have changed, and they are not the one she remembers. Mom, Yu Yao, Ye San, and Zhong Lin.

Dong Xiaokui threw aside the chicken wings that had not been eaten yet, took a paper towel to wipe his oily hands vigorously, and walked over to pull him upstairs.

"What are you going to do?" Xu Er asked, his tone was very similar to don't rob the folk girl among the people's girls.

Dong Xiaokui smiled and didn't say anything, just pulled him upstairs to her room and closed the door.

"Stone, what are you going to do?" Xu Er asked, his tone a little defensive.

Dong Xiaokui smiled maliciously, then rushed over and hugged him, and then said, "I want to hug you." ”

"Stone. You're getting more and more presumptuous. Xu Er's voice suddenly became a little hoarse.

"It's so childish and cute, it's rare in a hundred years, you have to hug it." Dong Xiaokui smiled, with a treacherous face.

Obviously, the answer was not what Xu Er wanted, and as soon as his face sank, he was about to break free from his embrace. Dong Xiaokui hugged him tightly and comforted: "Okay, I really want to hug you." There are things I want to say to you. ”

As soon as these words came out, Xu Er in his arms was no longer awkward, and hugged Dong Xiaokui with his backhand. Dong Xiaokui said slowly: "You fool. Is it that you are crazy at every turn, because the person who is about to leave you at home is the one who cares about you? I'm not crazy, I'm not uncomfortable, it's not that I'm not with you, but I trust you to take care of everything, because you treat me well. ”

Dong Xiaokui hugged him, and the two of them swayed slowly in the room, but there was a bit of a taste of slow jumping, which made people feel very funny, but they felt very warm.

"Then you used to." Xu Er's tone was lazy, I don't know if he was teasing her, or taking the opportunity to relax. Anyway, this guy behaves very differently in front of her than in front of others.

However, whether it was teasing her or taking the opportunity to relax, Dong Xiaokui didn't want to let go of this opportunity, she asked him to know her mind. There are some words that must be said, then work hard, and wait for the results after that. If you are obsessed with something, you cannot give yourself a chance to regret it. Prudence is an attitude towards things, and thoughtfulness is a strategy, trying not to let yourself have too many regrets, which must be kept in mind from time to time.

Therefore, she answered his question very seriously, saying: "In the past, I couldn't know your heart, you always hid a heart very deeply, so that I couldn't see what kind of attitude you had towards me, so I had to choose to retreat, because you don't know, I don't have the courage to face the difficulties and obstacles between us." There is no position to face the provocation of your engagement, your family, or even your crush. But now, you say that you miss me, and you move the holiday to come to me for the New Year, although you didn't say it, can I not understand? Although, I'd love to hear you say why you'd do that. I, Dong Xiaokui, am not the master of hypocrisy, Zhong Lin, you protect me, I will give you happiness. ”

When Dong Xiaokui said this, he smiled, just looking at him. I thought: Xu Zhonglin, I talked about this, don't you even say it?

She was looking forward to a kind of return. But Xu Er just didn't say that, but thought for a moment and asked: "Ye San said, where my identity is, many women from small families may not be able to bear my love for her——, they are not in the right position, and they are too pampered and arrogant. Dong Xiaokui, I'm a little worried. ”

It turned out that Xu Er would be worried that she would not be able to bear his love. Dong Xiaokui shook his head with a smile and said, "Xu Zhonglin, you are just a man to me. ”

"What?" Xu Er obviously didn't like such a definition, and his tone was very unhappy.

"For me, you're just a man I want to raise my eyebrows and be in the middle of nowhere. You buy me a scarf or a building, for me, the expression is the same. Oh, you're really worried. Dong Xiaokui sighed, stood on tiptoe and kissed him. ......
