The Kite and the Hitomi Scroll, 287
As soon as Tang Jianyu parked the car, he saw a tall girl under the traffic light opposite, holding several wooden planks of different lengths in her hands, and barely hanging a safe-shaped leather bag on her wrist. Seeing this, Tang Jianyu opened the trunk, Xia Lei obviously had no strength, and threw the wooden board into it with a bang. "How did you become a carpenter?" Tang Jianyu said curiously, Xia Lei pouted, "Oh, if you are one, two, three, four, five every day, I can call you the account room?" Xia Lei bent down and sorted out the wood, and said, "This is the sample I collected, not a chair designed with logs!" I want to use local wood. Tang Jianyu nodded, "Let's go." ”
After getting into the car for a while, Xia Lei remembered to fasten her seat belt and said, "Keep Uncle Fang, the car is not left, and I have to go to the second-hand car market in the past two days." It's good that you're going to town, or I'll have to hire a car to go back. Tang Jianyu put the steering wheel and said, "My father's car doesn't drive either, you can call Uncle Fang to pick it up." Xia Lei shook her head, "I want him to take care of it in the house in the future, Grandma Ah Qian is old after all." It's also convenient to buy a car that I can take advantage of. Tang Jianyu only nodded.
After Xia Lei finished speaking, she opened the small suitcase, and there were a lot of medicine boxes in it, Tang Jianyu hurriedly asked, "Are you sick as soon as you come back?" Xia Lei finished counting the list and pulled the zipper back, "It's Fei Fei's medicine, which offsets the side effects of radiotherapy, and most of them are mainly to enhance immunity." "Passing a huge ginkgo tree, the car drove out of the city and into the urban and rural roads. Tang Jianyu asked, "Is Ji Fei back in town?" Xia Lei pursed her lips, "Yes, hey, I didn't expect to suffer such a big crime, I don't know how she and Jiaojiao came over." When Shi Jiaojiao's name appeared, Tang Jianyu's ears moved unconsciously.
"I don't dare to tell Jiaojiao, the last time I went to see Fei Fei, she stayed at home alone, and she was so tired from opening the door that there was no blood on her face." Xia Lei propped her elbows on the window, supported half of her head with her hands, and looked ahead, "Her mother took her little brother to her aunt in the city to study in elementary school, and let her stepgrandmother take care of her." Lili and I were still there that day, and her step-grandmother pulled a dead face half a meter long, opened her mouth and closed her mouth and said that Jiaojiao's father didn't give anything but medicine money, and let her do things and pay for living expenses......"
Tang Jianyu smacked his lips, "Does Ji Fei have any money?" Xia Lei immediately replied, "I don't know anything else, Jiaojiao came back with 4,000 yuan last time, saying that Fei Fei saved 400 yuan a month when she was just sick, just in case of this day." Tang Jianyu bit his lip, not knowing what to say, Xia Lei raised her eyebrows, "Now that I'm back, Xiaoli also lives in the village, Feifei has the two of us by her side to watch, she is relieved!" The corners of Tang Jianyu's mouth curled, looked out of the windshield, and said softly: "Not necessarily, she is very worried." ”
Xia Leiwu said to herself, "Now Fei Fei has no strength, and after a few more months, I will let her move in with me." After listening to Tang Jianyu's words, he turned his head to look at the other party and smiled, and asked, "Have you come back to see our Jiaojiao?" Tang Jianyu's mouth pursed slightly and shook his head. Xia Lei adjusted her sitting posture, "I know that she loves to worry, and I don't let her rest assured." After being abroad for so long, will she not worry about you? Tang Jianyu didn't know how to parry, and the mobile phone made a noise noisily, because he was going to not answer the car, but the caller was very persistent, and Xia Lei stretched out her long arm to bring the bag in the back seat when she saw this.
"Help me get it." Tang Jianyu said casually, Xia Lei took out her mobile phone and accidentally saw Shao Wenyu's name and handed it over. Tang Jianyu looked at it with his spare eyes, opened his mouth for a while, and then said to Xia Lei: "Do me a favor, wait for her to hang up and send a text message, saying that it is inconvenient for me to listen to the phone and return it to her later." "Oh." The bell had stopped while talking, Xia Lei lowered her head and began to make up the news, saying: "You two are really connected, Jiaojiao said that you were going to get married!" Tang Jianyu raised his eyebrows and did not answer.
Grandma A Qian couldn't remember Tang Jianyu anymore, and as soon as she entered the door, she thought that Xia Lei had brought some special friends back, and after looking up and down, she was enthusiastic and gossipy. Xia Lei ran in to put the wood for a while, and she had to inquire about what Tang Jianyu's grandfather was doing, and said: "Our Xia family also has distant relatives who are the director of the education bureau, and they have retired at this time, and your family probably doesn't recognize it." When Tang Jianyu heard this, he quickly pursed his mouth and nodded very obediently.
Grandma Aqian's molars fell out two more teeth, and her mouth looked a little deflated, but it looked more kind, she took Tang Jianyu's arm and walked towards the middle hall, nagging in her mouth, "It's amazing, big professor......" Tang Jianyu wanted to defend himself that he was not a professor, Grandma Aqian stopped and smiled: "How did you know our family Lei Lei?" Before the person being questioned could speak, Xia Lei came out with laborer's gloves and interrupted Ah Qian and shouted, "Grandma! Look at who he is! ”
The old lady was stunned and turned her head to stare at Tang Jianyu's face, muttering: "It's good-looking, but I don't know it......" Xia Lei walked up with a smile, pointed at Tang Jianyu with A Qian's finger and said: "Think about it again, when we were in the south, in the orange orchard of the uncle...... Is it the eldest son of your distant chief's relative? Grandma Aqian squinted a few times and laughed shyly, "Really? Isn't it? Grandma is too old to recognize ......."
The younger generation laughed, Xia Lei waved her hand, "You better go to the vegetable market early, the sword beans have been snatched up by the old lady!" Ah Qianyi heard that grandma hurriedly went to carry the basket, and did not forget to greet Tang Jianyu when she walked out of the door, "Wait for grandma to come back from grocery shopping, and have dinner at home!" Tang Jianyu waved his hand obediently, "Okay." ”
A grape trellis in the last row of rooms in the atrium is now completely Xia Lei's operating table, stacked with different materials in bundles or stacks. Tang Jianyu walked up to Xia Lei, she was struggling with an unknown dry vine, "I want to dip it in water and beat it to see if it can produce fibers." Tang Jianyu rarely commented on things he didn't understand, just watched. Xia Lei scratched her nose and raised the tails of her slender eyes, "Tell you a funny thing, Shi Jiaojiao knew that you were my cousin, and she was so shocked that she couldn't close her mouth for a long time, haha." ”
The first thought that came into Tang Jianyu's brain was actually "miserable": lied to her that Shao Wenyu was her cousin, and concealed that her good friend was her cousin, and it was still so long! I really can't imagine what Shi Jiaojiao will think of herself. Tang Jianyu felt his cheeks tingle inexplicably, and subconsciously held his face and asked nervously, "Why did you suddenly tell her this?" Xia Lei picked out a piece of bark and threw it out, and said indifferently: "Just tell me how I came back." ”
When Tang Jianyu heard this, he asked about the situation casually, "Did they contact you later?" Xia Lei stopped what she was doing and saw a pale crape myrtle flower fluttering in the wind in the hollow rockery hole in the distance. A phone call came. Xia Lei lowered her eyelids, "I know, she wants to make sure I didn't tell my father." Tang Jianyu exhaled and didn't answer, Xia Lei clutched the vine in her hand, "Maybe, she still wants to remarry my father!" ”
At the dinner table, Grandma Ah Qian finally remembered this, five or six half-old children were noisy around him, and he could also sit on the porch and write in a muffled voice, "Ouch, the appearance of the living back then has not changed, but it is more stable." Tang Jianyu looked at the snail stuffing and said with a smile: "Grandma Qian's snail stuffing always tastes good." An old man and a young man chatted about the day, but was interrupted by Xia Lei, "Have you left food for Uncle Fang?" Grandma Aqian shook her hand, "He went home to eat today." ”
Tang Jianyu left in the thousand instructions of Grandma Aqian, returned to the apartment before half past eight, and after a little rest, took a bottle of mineral water and sat on the sofa to reply to Shao Wenyu's phone. Before he hung up automatically, the other party picked it up, Shao Wenyu seemed to be in a very lively place, and there was noisy music behind him.
This was the first phone call after they announced their breakup, in fact, after that incident, Tang Jianyu went to France as quickly as possible, and the two had no chance to contact. At this moment, the sound of breathing greeted each other, but Tang Jianyu didn't know what to say, Shao Wenyu chuckled lightly and said, "I heard that you came back from outside, old friend greetings." Tang Jianyu hesitated and said, "It's been a long time since I got in touch." ”
Shao Wenyu laughed dryly, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Actually, James and I are planning to remarry, and this wedding will be held at my house, and I want to invite your family over." A sense of discomfort welled up in Tang Jianyu's heart, and this matter was very difficult for him: in what capacity did he participate: brother-in-law? Friends? Or an ex-boyfriend? If he refuses according to the first feeling in his heart, he seems to be too attached to the past......
How could Shao Wenyu, who is as smart as Shao Wenyu, not know how much trouble she would bring to the other party if she made such an invitation to Tang Jianyu, but out of a psychology that was close to revenge, she just wanted to see Tang Jianyu at a loss because of herself.
"Isn't it difficult? It's okay to let your parents come alone, and I'll send a wedding card. Shao Wenyu smiled visibly and asked Tang Jianyu further. Tang Jianyu heard the clock on the wall running words second by second, and the sound was transmitted back and forth between the four walls, he looked at the dark blue sky outside the balcony, and said lightly: "Okay, I will also talk to the family." "What do you mean?" "Meaning, I don't seem to be a good fit to show up at your wedding, and I don't want to go either."
There was silence on the phone for a long time, Shao Wenyu suddenly laughed, and spoke like an old friend, "You won't still mind, right?" We have been together for so many years, and we are friends if we get along! Why take it so seriously. Tang Jianyu shook his head and said coldly: "I'm sorry, I don't want to go." The noisy sound in the receiver disappeared suddenly, and Shao Wenyu hung up the phone.
A glass of pale brown wine swayed, and three or two ice hockey balls hit the walls of the glass, making a pleasant "tinkling" sound. A man with a high nose with a well-rounded beard, looking through the swirling liquid, a beautiful woman with a blue face. He didn't want to mess with her knowing that she was in a bad mood, but he couldn't control himself, "Who? Who will remarry poor James, how can James himself not know? Shao Wenyu snatched the wine glass, poured a sip of cold and spicy liquid, and said, "You don't need to know. James raised an eyebrow, "Okay." ”
