Chapter 016 Zhonglin, allow me to be willful
Dong Xiao understood what Xu Er meant: he wanted her to go out and live her own life. So, she replied: "I originally planned to go outside to look for a job after Xiaohuai's champion banquet." β
"Well, any intentions? Still going to Sanya? He asked, turning to look at her.
Dong Xiaokui didn't want him to know, in fact, she wanted to stay in Jincheng and go to that magazine. Because she just wants to work silently alone and walk on her own. She didn't want him to interfere, either openly or covertly. If he intervenes, even if one day, she can be brilliant, she will inevitably be truthful.
So, she replied, "Not yet." Maybe check it out. β
"It's good to go out and have a look. When you're out there, you'll be at ease and have a better life. He said.
Dong Xiaokui smiled and said, "You have confidence in me." β
"I've always believed in my own vision." Xu Er replied nonchalantly.
This man never forgets to praise others. Dong Xiaokui pursed her lips and spit out a sentence of disdain: "It turns out that praising me is not the goal, praising myself is the goal." β
"You're also smart, you can see through the essence at once, and I really have a good eye." He said seriously, and also examined Dong Xiaokui.
Dong Xiaokui finally couldn't hold back and laughed out loud. Xu Er's face was not shocked, his eyes looked at her calmly, and after a while, he said solemnly: "Come with me today." β
These words made Dong Xiaokui stunned, a smile was fixed on her face, she couldn't help but bow her head and asked, "Where to go?" β
"Downtown." He replied.
Dong Xiaokui wanted to ask "what to do", but she didn't ask, just replied: "Okay." β
Xu Er looked a little puzzled, as if he wanted to say something, but after all, he just raised his hand to look at his wrist and said, "It's ten o'clock, let's go, go back and clean up." β
"Okay." She smiled at him, still a word, and turned to walk home.
Because of the market, people come and go. In front of the shop, my mother carefully introduced all kinds of cloth shoes to the guests, and she was very capable and patient. Dong Xiaokui and Xu Er waited on the side, and after waiting for a while, there were fewer guests.
"What's the matter?" Mom asked first.
"Mom, it's time for me to look for a job, so I'll leave after a while." Dong Xiaokui said.
Mom didn't answer right away, but straightened her shoes and asked, "So anxious?" β
"Well, when I see a company I like, I want to try it, and there is a time limit for recruitment. So, I want to go to Jincheng first. Dong Xiaokui replied.
"Let's go tomorrow. Your grandmother will come over in a moment. Mom said.
"I have some things to move, Zhonglin has a car anyway, I want to drop by. Besides, Zhong Lin will return to the capital this afternoon. I also want to take him to the airport. Dong Xiaokui tried to convince her mother.
There were a few women in the shop, looking at the shoes, and my mother immediately put down the water glass, greeted and introduced them, and ignored Dong Xiaokui.
Dong Xiaokui stood on the side, seeing that her mother didn't mean to pay attention, she was also a little angry. What is there about the mother and daughter not to be honest and unfair? She has made it clear that she is measured. Mom always uses this tepid cold violence.
For so many years, my mother has been like this. Dong Xiaokui finally felt that it was too tiring to talk to her, so she didn't care about it, and as soon as she turned around, she went inside. Xu Er was originally standing on the side, but he also followed all the way, and on the stairs, he took her hand from behind and said, "Don't be willful." β
She pursed her lips and stood stubbornly on the stairs, the morning sun shining through the green tree in the courtyard, casting a little spot of light on the stairs.
"Don't upset Mom. If you can't come with me, make me lunch. Let's go to the vegetable field to pick vegetables. He said slowly.
Xu Er's tone has always been calm when he speaks, and this time is no exception. But maybe it's because she has a hunch that this is a journey away, maybe it's because she is too tired to carefully remember her father's words and love her mother and brother for so many years. In short, when she heard his peaceful words, her nose was sore and tears filled her eyes.
She stood still, not answering, nor turning to look at him. Only stubbornly standing. Xu Er slowly walked up the stairs and stood in front of her. Dong Xiaokui was afraid that he would see his tears, so he lowered his head.
"Silly girl, don't be willful, let's pick vegetables, you have to cook a meal for me with your heart." He said, with a slight chuckle in his tone.
Maybe it's the coming separation, maybe it's the grievance for too long. She heard Xu Er's gentle words, and finally hugged Xu Er regardless of it, buried her face in his chest, and tears burst out of her eyes. She burst into a suppressed cry and whined, like some kind of wounded young beast.
Xu Er was quiet and didn't move. It took a while to carry her all the way to her room. The stairs were a little wobbly due to walking too quickly. He slammed the door shut, and then, with his back against the door, let her down, still holding Dong Xiaokui in his arms, letting her pill on his chest, without saying a word, letting her cry unscrupulously.
It's like crying all the grievances and sorrows, and tears are pouring out. After crying for a while, she felt tired. Then, he got up from his arms, calmly walked to the coffee table, took toilet paper to wipe away his tears, turned to him and smiled slightly, and said, "Zhonglin, you go and wait for me in the car, I'll clean up and come." β
"Aoi-chan." He shouted with some concern.
"I know what I'm doing." She smiled at him, took out the small box that Xu Er had given, and began to pack her clothes. Xu Er stood in place and said, "Actually, I like to eat the food you cook, it's delicious." β
His subtext was to ask her to cook lunch for him, not to have to go to the city with him and get into trouble with his mother.
While cleaning up, she generally replied: "In fact, after so many years, I have long seen that my mother is stronger than I imagined, I don't need to worry about her at all, and she doesn't need others to worry." Because although my dad is gone, he has always lived in her world and is her most powerful existence. So, no one else, anything, even me, really hurt my mother. β
"Aoi-chan, that's what you understand." Xu Er finally said very worriedly.
Dong Xiaokui also doesn't know if there is a deviation in her understanding of her mother. But today she wanted to be willful, so she ignored Xu Er's persuasion and filled the box with things. Wooden hairpins, carved foxes, a change of clothes, old silver bracelets......
"Xiaokui, I didn't think it through just now, I don't need you to go to the airport to see me off. I just want to eat the lunch you made. Xu Er walked over, squatted down, and grabbed her hand.
Dong Xiaokui smiled at him and said, "Zhonglin, you allow me to be willful once, okay?" β
Xu Er still maintained that posture, holding her hand with his hand, frowning slightly, looking at her with infinite pity, and shouted: "Xiaokui, be good." β
Dong Xiaokui looked at him, showed a slight smile, and said in a calm tone: "Zhong Lin." When I was a child, I was also the pearl of my father's palm. Dad always praised me for being smart, and the ancestral teachings of the family, when I heard someone say a word, I can immediately memorize it. I don't know what that means, though. I was in kindergarten and elementary school, my grades have always been very good, I know how to be polite, I like to sing the most, and my writing essays are published in newspapers. I'm dad ** proud. But Dad went. He said to me, "Treat your mother and brother well." I'll just listen to him and treat it well. Anything you do after that, every step you take, you have to think about whether it will hurt them or not, and whether you will give them the best protection. Zhonglinββ, to be honest, I'm really tired. β
Dong Xiaokui narrated slowly, although her tone was relaxed, and she begged a little mischievously at the end: "So, allow me to be willful once, okay?" β
She said as she stood up to collect the computer on her desk. Xu Er held her in his arms from behind, and after a while, he said one word: "Okay." β
"Hehe, thank you." She turned and smiled at him, but unexpectedly, he leaned down and kissed her on the lips, tossing and turning, the curtains were tight, and the dark light of the room was unknown.
Dong Xiaokui only felt like the eternal beginning of the earth's desolation, and every minute and second was the ultimate lingering. Later, Xu Er finally left her lips slightly. He said, "Aoi, actually, I-"
Dong Xiaokui knew that he wanted to say something like a promise to comfort her. However, she did not need the promise to be made in this situation. Because, Dong Xiaokui has already seen it from the sentence he asked him last night: he is actually not sure about himself.
Yes, even if he is "ruthless in his decision-making, and cold-eyed", he also has a weakness, that is, family honor and responsibility, or in other words, family affection.
Now, in this case, if he makes any promises, it is more or less sympathetic. She Dong Xiaokui does not carry coercive promises, and sympathetic lies.
Therefore, Dong Xiaokui covered his mouth before he said it, looked at him and smiled mischievously, and said, "I will eat obediently and take care of myself." β
Xu Er held her hand with one hand, brushed her face with the other, and sighed slightly: "I want you to be happy." β
"I am such a virtuous and virtuous, intelligent woman, rare in the world. Naturally, it is a gentleman. So, I'll be happy. Dong Xiaokui smiled.
Xu Er's brows furrowed, she stood on tiptoe, brushed her index finger over his forehead, and said calmly: "You know that the happiness I want is nothing more than an ordinary life. Husband and child, harmony and beauty, is easy to achieve. β
"Really?" Xu Er asked in a low voice.
"Of course. My dad died early, and the past few years have been a lot of work. Besides. I'm not the kind of person in Grandma Qiong Yao who lives and dies and lives only by love. Love is only a very small part of my life. I won't be like the woman in "Mythology", who can wait for a thousand years for someone, not to mention that there is no thousand years for me, and even if there is, I will probably not wait for the kind of person who will not wait. I'm more realistic and pragmatic. Dong Xiaokui said, a little chattering. As he spoke, he checked the box and backpack and made sure that he had brought his resume and mobile phone charger.
Xu Er didn't answer, just stood there, looking at her coldly with a scrutinizing look.
Dong Xiaokui didn't dare to look at his eyes, for fear of looking at it, he couldn't help it. She didn't want to worry too much about her in the days of separation. Especially this separation, I don't know if there will be a day of reunion.
"Alright, help me move the boxes." Dong Xiaokui carried a computer bag, held a handbag, and pointed to the packed box.
Xu Er glanced at her, bent down to carry the box, and inexplicably threw a sentence: "Needless to say about you." β
"What's wrong with me? You don't need to talk about me? Dong Xiaokui glanced at him.
Xu Er opened the door with the box, the light outside the house poured in, the sky was dazzling, Dong Xiaokui couldn't help but squint her eyes, only to see that in the light and shadow, Xu Er was standing in the door frame, the silhouette was too good-looking, and he dared to take a closer look with tears. But suddenly he turned around and said, "You will." β
"Huh?" Dong Xiaokui was very puzzled and didn't understand his words.
"Give you a thousand years, and so will you." He added, carrying the box downstairs.
Dong Xiaokui was speechless, this man's reflex arc was not ordinarily long. I've been saying that for a while. ......
