The sun is shining, and the weather is warm just after spring. White, black, yellow and white, three strong and docile pastoral dogs huddled together, and the white one yawned, licked his nose, and looked at the haystack not far away with curious eyes. The haystack is the decoration of the "Happy Little Bowl" farmhouse, and this small haystack can take a lot of effort from Father Shi, and almost the entire village has been running for this pile of things. Now there are no more large rice fields and wheat fields than before, and every household has harvested straw.

In the courtyard facing the fishing tackle shop next door, there were two young women of bright colors, one of whom was dressed in bright clothes, holding a big belly, covering her mouth and yawning bitterly. "How?" With sleepy tears hanging in the corners of her eyes, Xia Lei asked, "Did you report to the office smoothly?" Shi Jiaojiao took off a piece of grass clippings stuck to her hair and replied: "It's only been two days since I went and I've rested, who knows, it seems to be much more idle than the headquarters at present." The first day I sat in the office, I was itching. "Haha!" Xia Lei laughed, "Work hard." ”

Mother Shi appeared out of nowhere, followed by Xiaobai and Dahei, probably because she was carrying a piece of pork in her hand. "I said that the two girls disappeared as soon as they turned their heads, but they would be as happy as kittens, and found the warmest place." Xia Lei sat on the red pestle, almost sinking into the neat hay, seeing that Shi's mother was trying to sit upright, she smiled and said: "Anyway, the store is not busy now, godmother, you also come to sit, you are comfortable!" Mother Shi shook her head, "It's all ash, and good clothes are ruined!" ”

The woman came to find her two daughters for lunch, and the catering family ate either very early or late, and Shi's mother saw that there was no business at this time, so she hurriedly entertained the two children who were rarely at home. "Wow, I'm finally drinking the special chicken soup too!" Xia Lei squeezed into the stool and said exaggeratedly with her palms together. "You two eat first." Mother Shi handed over the spoon, stood up and said, "This is Grandma Xiaoli's baby, and she has raised more than a dozen." ”

Shi Jiaojiao took a sip first, it was really fragrant and refreshing, and said obediently: "I am also a pregnant woman!" Mother Shi pouted, "When have I ever treated you badly?" Shi Jiaojiao stuck out her tongue and drank it while holding the bowl. Shi's mother stood at the table, and the people in the kitchen didn't answer when they called, and the two eyes stared at her daughter, bluffing Xia Lei into spitting out a bone, and asked, "My mother, what do you want to ask her?" Shi Jiaojiao also looked back at her mother with big eyes flickering.

The woman made a lot of small movements, scratching her head and scratching her nose, etc., and finally exhaled and asked, "Why haven't you seen Xiao Tang for a while, have you gone to that place, the research institute?" "Ah......" Xia Lei grew her mouth, tried to behave naturally, and quietly gave Shi Jiaojiao a look. Shi Jiaojiao was almost choked, raised her head and returned, "Ah, work is quite busy." But it's connected every day! Mother Shi hurriedly covered up: "You must have a connection, I just saw Lei Lei and remembered to ask." ”

Mother Shi held the rag that had been placed on the table, almost escaping the sight of the two women. "I'm in a hurry, waiting to marry you off!" Xia Lei stretched her neck, took a sip of hot chicken soup and said, "She, the knife mouth tofu heart, once she accepts it, she cares more than anyone else." Shi Jiaojiao looked in the direction of the kitchen and nodded silently. Has my brother told you these days, what is the situation on his side? Xia Lei asked, Shi Jiaojiao pursed her lips and shook her head, "To be honest, there has been no news in the past two days, I called once, but he didn't answer." ”

"Huh? Busy like this? Xia Lei put down the porcelain spoon, took out her mobile phone from the wide coat pocket, and dialed Tang Jianyu's number without saying anything, and Shi Jiaojiao also listened attentively. What's going on? Xia Lei sent the phone to Shi Jiaojiao's eyes, and there was a small prompt sound from inside, and the other party turned off the phone. I probably forgot to recharge, and it's not impossible to have an emergency at work. Shi Jiaojiao was reasonable, but her expression was also a little anxious.

Xia Lei took back her mobile phone, didn't know who she called, and made a "silence" gesture to Shi Jiaojiao very seriously, Shi Jiaojiao couldn't help but hold her breath when she saw this. The mobile phone was sent to Shi Jiaojiao's ear again, but the opposite side was still turned off, Shi Jiaojiao removed her ear and looked at the screen, which said "uncle".

The two exchanged glances, Shi Jiaojiao put down the bowl in her hand and walked to Xia Lei's side, Xia Lei naturally dialed Tang's mother's number, and there was a "beep" sound from the opposite side, and both of them felt relieved. Xia Lei glanced at Shi Jiaojiao, thinking about the rhetoric for a while, who knows, a long "beep" finally turned into an unanswered voice......

"I'll do it again later!" Xia Lei put down the phone and said, Shi Jiaojiao straightened up, moved her eyes on both sides, and whispered, "Well, I must not have paid attention to the phone." Xia Lei patted the table, "It's okay, it's a big deal, I'll go tomorrow." Shi Jiaojiao put her hand on her friend's shoulder, and responded with a random "um" in her mouth, and she had already begun to make various assumptions in her mind: Did there be a more fierce quarrel? Because they all insisted on their own positions, did they simply cut off contact with each other in a gamble? ……

"Yo, what's wrong with Jiaojiao, her face is so ugly?" The uncle in charge of the spoon took advantage of the free kitchen to come out and smoke a cigarette to change his mood. When passing by the lobby, he saw that the boss's daughter and goddaughter were there, so he wanted to come over to talk, but before the two people could respond, the man took a puff first, twisted the cigarette butt in the ashtray at the door, and took a few breaths before approaching them. "Uncle." The two people who drank the chicken soup greeted the man one after another, and Xia Lei replied: "It's nothing, it's just that I just came back, and I'm not suitable for work!" ”

The sturdy man with a turban laughed, "Do you white-collar workers still have a time when they are not adaptable?" Shi Jiaojiao nodded in response to Xia Lei's words, the uncle in charge squinted at the kitchen, blocked his mouth with one hand, and pretended to say mysteriously: "I'm not afraid to tell you, I didn't fit in here three years ago!" I'm here to stir-fry, your mother is always pointing fingers, and I'm so annoyed that I really don't want to do it! "Then how did you get used to it again?" Shi Jiaojiao asked with interest, and the uncle in charge took off his turban and sighed: "Once you get used to it, you can get used to it, although your mother is verbose, she is still kind to us." ”

"She's coming!" Xia Lei shrank her head, and the uncle in charge looked back to see that Mother Shi really came over with a bowl, and shouted from afar, "Chef, take a handle and set a plate, and eat lunch first!" The chef in charge replied and said to Shi Jiaojiao: "Take your time, how good it is to come home, think about any difficulties at home can be overcome!" With that, he shoved his bandana into his butt pocket and ran towards the kitchen. Xia Lei and Shi Jiaojiao glanced at each other, "What Uncle said is reasonable. Xia Lei said, Shi Jiaojiao pursed her lips and replied: "I hope it's okay." ”

Xia Lei told Shi Jiaojiao that if there was no news from Tang Jianyu that night, she would buy something early tomorrow morning to visit her aunt. Shi Jiaojiao was worried, but it seemed that there were more things she was afraid of and didn't dare to face, so she tried her best to stop Xia Lei, so she persuaded her to wait a few more days, "Wait for Monday, classes will be held in school, and if you don't contact us, you have to contact your colleagues!" ”
