Chapter 195: Goodbye to My Aunt
Zhilan ate a lot of dinner, two bowls of small wontons, but Gao Minlang didn't stop her this time. Maybe he thought she was working too hard in the afternoon, so he served her wontons and gave her all kinds of vegetables.
"What's wrong with you today, who said you should eat less at night?" Although Zhilan talked to him, she didn't look up.
"Make up!" Gao Minlang laughed sinister and cunning.
"I'm not the only one who needs to make up!" Zhilan raised her head at this time: "You will be the hardest one!" β
It's rare to see Gao Minlang so shy, his face blushed for a long time, "This..." Gao Minlang said: "What you say makes sense!" So he took the bowl and filled it with another bowl!
As she was talking, Zhilan's mobile phone rang, and it was an unfamiliar number.
"Is it Miss Mo Zhilan? There is your courier at the entrance of the community. β
"Courier?" Zhilan was puzzled, looked up at Gao Minlang, and saw that he was also confused, so she confirmed again: "Are you sure it's Mo Zhilan's courier?" β
"Yes, miss, I'm at the gate of the Qilin Home Community now, can you come out and pick it up?"
"Kirin Home?" Zhilan held her forehead: "I'm sorry, I'm outside now, it will take a long time to go back, can you help me put it in the communication room first!" β
Hanging up the phone, Zhilan meditated, but couldn't think of what she had recently purchased online.
"Don't think about it, just go back and take a look tomorrow!"
After dinner, the two of them nested on the sofa to catch up on the drama. In fact, Gao Minlang was not keen on this, but Zhilan insisted on pulling her to watch it together, and there was no choice but to sit down and watch it together.
Zhilan's tears were low, and she cried several times in one episode.
Gao Minlang wiped her tears and laughed at her: "Tell me about you, people get married and cry you into tears, how is this good?" β
Zhilan snatched the tissue in his hand, and said while crying: "I'm not crying about the bride who got married, I'm worrying about the old father and raising such a big daughter... Hey, you'll know that feeling when you marry your daughter in the future! β
"I don't know if there's a chance."
In a word, the atmosphere is a little stiff!
Turning off the TV, Zhilan said, "Accompany me to my aunt's house tomorrow, I want to go and see them." β
"Good!" Although this should be answered, Gao Minlang still had some doubts: "But, isn't the day after tomorrow the day after tomorrow the day of Shao Tong's wedding?" Then my aunt and uncle will come. β
"But I suddenly miss her!"
"Okay, then go. When Shao Tong's affairs are over, you can still take your aunt over and stay as long as you want. β
"Well, go to bed early tonight!"
In fact, at the end of this day, Zhilan was exhausted, and it seemed that when she was resting, it was not much easier than going to work. So, before nine o'clock, she went to bed.
Gao Minlang couldn't sleep and sat alone in the bedroom. The uneasiness in my heart, the more and more arrogant! It wasn't until just now that he knew that Zhilan had already booked a ticket for tomorrow night, and she didn't even attend Shao Tong's wedding? It was a ticket to Australia, where his dad was and where he stayed for ten years.
Gao Minlang couldn't guess what she was going to do there? He only knew that there were less than two days left for him to accompany Zhilan. Walking to the wine cabinet, looking at those Chen Lie's good wines, he took a bottle casually, and drank most of the bottle quietly in the kitchen alone, only to feel that his head was hot and weak, so he got up and went to the bathroom, took a simple shower, and then went to bed.
The next morning, Zhilan got up to go for a morning run, but it was actually very late, and seeing that the people next to him were still sleeping, Zhilan didn't bother him. In fact, she has always been a person who doesn't like sports very much, so her physical fitness has not been very good, and today she suddenly became interested, but after running for less than a kilometer, she was already out of breath, so she changed to slow walking.
About an hour later, Zhilan returned home, and Gao Minlang had just brought breakfast to the table.
"It's really better to come back early, than to come back!" Gao Minlang smiled and said, "Hurry up and wash your hands!" β
Zhilan was so tired that she collapsed, barely supporting her body to wash her hands, and when she came out, she said: "I must strengthen my exercise in the future, my body, I only ran less than two kilometers today, and I can't do it anymore." β
"You can't eat a fat man in one bite. Take your time! Wait a minuteβ" He wanted to say that he would accompany her later, but how could there be a future.
Since the last time Zhilan said that they broke up, they have never argued about this issue again, he disagreed at the time, he begged Zhilan to please Zhilan... But then he understood that the things that Zhilan decided couldn't be changed by anyone, so it was better to let go, and one day she would come back when she was tired, tired, and tired!
So he always has a strong desire to firmly believe that one day she will come back, so he will talk about the future, but now, Zhilan is leaving, but he refuses to disclose any news to him, does it mean that Zhilan has no intention of coming back at all?
Zhilan lowered her head and didn't speak, eating quietly, a bowl of white porridge had bottomed out. The spoon was still numb and stirring in the bowl.
"Do you want more?" Gao Minlang asked.
"I'm full!" Zhilan replied.
"Good!" Gao Minlang also lowered his head and ate quietly.
Zhilan went back to the bedroom and simply packed up her things, then went to wash, put on light makeup, and changed into clean clothes. I sat on the sofa and waited.
Gao Minlang was cleaning up the kitchen, and when he turned his head, he saw the person on the sofa, so he put down the things in his hand, walked over, sat beside her, and asked softly, "Are you in a hurry?" β
Zhilan held back her tears, put her hands through Gao Minlang's waist, hugged him tightly, and whispered: "No... You take your time. β
"Good!" Gao Minlang kissed her hair: "Then you wait for me, I'll be fine right away!" β
Gao Minlang stood up, and as soon as he took a step, his body was hugged from behind, Zhilan leaned on his back, her hands passed under his armpits, intertwined in his chest, and tears fell down.
Gao Minlang looked at the hands, raised his head, and didn't let his tears be so unassuming, but when he thought that when he came back from his aunt's house today, Zhilan was about to leave, and his heart was like being stabbed by someone with a sharp weapon, and he felt that he was about to breathe up.
"I'll be fine right away, wait for me!"
"Okay, then let's go to the supermarket together and buy something!"
After a two-hour drive, my aunt was surprised and happy when she saw Zhilan, holding Zhilan and not letting go, of course, this time she didn't wait for Gao Minlang, and her uncle pulled him into the house, making tea and cutting fruits.
My aunt lives in the countryside, has a quiet small yard, raises some poultry, and grows some seasonal vegetables in the summer, which will be in autumn, the leaves turn yellow, and she is still lazily basking in the sun.
Zhilan hadn't been to her aunt's house for a long time, she had been here when she was a child, but in the middle of the years, she had indeed never been to the door, and she had even forgotten where her aunt's house was.
"You girl, you don't say to make a phone call when you come, look at it, my aunt didn't prepare anything, but you bought so many things!" Although the aunt was disgusted, it was not difficult for Zhilan to hear that the aunt was happy.
"Auntie, I didn't buy those, Min Lang bought them." Zhilan looked at Min Lang with a smile: "He said, the first time he came to the door, it was always unsatisfactory to be empty-handed." Buy it, you can buy it, honor you and your uncle, it's not a matter of course! β
Uncle and Min Lang were talking in the hall, and from time to time there was the sound of hip-hop laughter. My aunt and Zhilan were busy with lunch in the kitchen, and the two aunts and nephews had only seen each other for a few days, but they still had endless words.
"Auntie, how are Shao Tong's wedding preparations?" Zhilan helped pick the vegetables and handed them to her aunt.
"What else can I prepare, I'm a mother, I just blindly take money out, weddings are outsourced to others, and we can't mix anything, if there is any problem, they will go directly to Shao Tong, and we are happy to be idle." But after all, it is a major matter of Tianding's import, and it must not be sloppy, and you have to worry about it. My aunt said with a smile while chopping vegetables: "This tomorrow is the right day, Shao Tong originally asked me to go over in the morning, you see, I didn't go, otherwise you came, don't you pounce!" β
Zhilan said, "It just happened to come with us that afternoon!" β
"Yes, you just happened to be here, so you can take a ride there!" The aunt looked at Zhilan, put down the dish in her hand, wiped her hand on the apron she was wearing casually, and then took Zhilan's hand: "Zhilan, my aunt has to thank you, Shao Tong bought a house, if it didn't have your 100,000 yuan, it would really be impossible to do it, Shao Tong's child, you also know, he is quiet on weekdays, but he said it, this money will definitely be repaid to you." β
Zhilan also clenched her aunt's hand, and said with some annoyance: "Auntie, you have seen nothing like this." Shao Tong is my cousin, I should help him, as for not paying it back, look at him, if you have it, you will give it, I won't ask for it if I don't have it! β
My aunt sighed: "Fortunately, there are still you by my aunt's side, you said, I am obviously marrying a daughter-in-law, but my heart is even sadder than marrying a girl!" Lanlan, when you get married, auntie, maybe what will you cry like? By the way, did Min Lang say when you will get married? β
"This..."Zhilan was a little embarrassed, and couldn't find a reason to prevaricate for a while.
"Auntie, we'll probably be at the end of the year!" It was Gao Minlang who spoke, and he didn't know when he stood at the kitchen door.
"At the end of the year?" As she spoke, my aunt folded her fingers and said to herself, "It's mid-August, September, October... That's more than three months away..."
"Yes, more than three months is enough!" Gao Minlang said.
Zhilan looked at him, not knowing what he meant. But seeing my aunt so happy, I didn't say anything.
During the meal, my aunt instructed Zhilan: "Lanlan, pick up your relatives early tomorrow morning, you have to come early, my aunt doesn't have any family, you are the dearest, Shao Tong's aunt is far away in Shanxi, and she is also busy." β
Zhilan nodded and said, "Auntie, don't worry, when the time comes, Liu Zhuo, Min Lang and Li Junqiu will all come over to help, you can rest assured!" β
My aunt didn't know what was going on, so she naturally didn't know what Zhilan meant by this, so she didn't think much about it, just blindly beckoned Zhilan and Gao Minlang to eat more.
Gao Minlang on the side couldn't eat anymore!
