Chapter 17: Calculation
"What?" Su Tao looked at Zhou Xiaonan with a confused expression.
Zhou Xiaonan hurriedly gave Su Tao a look, and then said to his mother, "No, don't talk nonsense!" This is just a friend. Can you not judge other people's looks casually. ”
"Eh, you're protecting her so much?" Zhou Xiaonandao's mother glanced at him, "Can you have a little interest?" When you see a pretty girl, you can't walk. ”
Although Zhou Xiaonan's mother said quite unkindly, because she looked forward to Shenfei's appearance was quite moving, Su Tao didn't reply to the past, but patiently explained, "Auntie, I'm really not his girlfriend, just a good friend." I just transferred to another school not long ago, and Xiao Nan helped take care of me, so we have a good relationship......"
Xiao Nan's mother heard Su Tao call her aunt, her face was obviously a little displeased, and she said disdainfully, "How can there be such a caring friend." When a man and a woman are together, they say they are good friends, but how can they be just friends? This kind of thing, even if you deceive others, you still want to fool me? Ahh......h
Zhou Xiaonan and Su Tao looked at each other, unable to understand Xiaonan's mother's magical brain circuit, and didn't know how to respond.
"Mom, you didn't call Dad, did you?"
"Of course not, what am I calling him for? I personally came to find Zhou Xiaobei, this stinky boy! Ask him why he kicked us out! Xiao Nan's mother said that she was about to put Zhou Xiaonan away and walk forward.
"Mom, can you not be excited-" Zhou Xiaonan hurriedly hugged her. Although Zhou Xiaonan was too thin as a boy, it was easy to stop his petite and slender mother.
"Yes, don't get excited, there's something you can sit down and talk about. Don't make everyone unhappy as soon as you come up, and it won't end well. Su Tao also persuaded him.
"I'm making everyone unhappy? Am I making trouble? Didn't Zhou Xiaobei pick it up first? What do you think?! He has the support of a dead old man like Zheng Huaihai, which is amazing! We live in such a small dilapidated house, and we have to rob it. are all sons born to Lao Tzu, why should one want what and what, and what the other wants!? Zhou's everything is his, he is not satisfied, and he will come to drive us out! Xiao Nan's mother became angry, and her small mouth flew up and down quickly.
"Mom, think about it carefully, why did Zhou Xiaobei do this?" Zhou Xiaonan said suddenly.
"What, why? He's going to fix us. Xiao Nan's mother said angrily, "He has always hated us to death." It's just that I didn't do anything before, and now I'm bold......"
"Yes, Zhou Xiaobei has always hated us, but his previous attitude basically disdained us, let alone took the initiative to provoke us. Since this kind of grudge is not a matter of one or two days, why did he suddenly change his attitude today and put on a posture of going to the door to find fault? Zhou Xiaonan said calmly.
"How do I know? You go on. Xiao Nan's mother pursed her lips, and a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes.
"Think about it yourself, Zhou Xiaobei has no shortage of houses, you can find a set of any party if you want to, you can't get along with us for this." Zhou Xiaonan continued to analyze.
"That's why I said he just wanted to disgust us......" Xiaonan's mother puffed out her mouth in disgust, and she actually looked a little playful.
"Not necessarily. Zhou Xiaobei has been trying to provoke me just now, and I was dizzy. Now calm down and think about it carefully, Zhou Xiaobei will not trouble us for no reason. Although we have not had a good relationship, we have been in peace for so many years. In any case, he has always had a vested interest, and our existence poses no threat to him at all, and there is no reason for him to come and cause trouble, unless the situation changes. Zhou Xiaonan's complexion gradually returned to normal, and his mind became lively. I was carried away by the sudden humiliation before, but now that I think about it carefully, I feel more and more that there is something strange in it.
"You mean?" Xiao Nan's mother raised her eyebrows.
"I mean, if we were in a stalemate, now he's willing to make such a big move. What does it mean? It means that the balance between us must have been broken. We don't know the reason, but it must be in our balance - my dad. ”
"What do you mean?" Su Tao was still confused.
"You think, Zhou Xiaobei is doing this, taking advantage of this opportunity, his father is not at home, busy with an important business, it is obvious that he can't take care of it here, and his energy is limited, obviously whoever contacts him first is unlucky. And Zhou Xiaobei took advantage of this sensitive period to occupy a house that is meaningless to him, but is of great significance to us, for what, and the meaning is not obvious enough? ”
"He wants to provoke you?" Su Tao suddenly realized.
"Yes, he knows you, Mom. He knows that once you know that your house is occupied, you will be unable to hold your breath and call your dad or make a fuss with him...... Then, his purpose has been achieved. Zhou Xiaonan's tone became urgent.
"So what do you want to say?" Xiaonan's mother still seems to understand.
"The reason why Zhou Xiaobei did this is that he hopes that you can take the initiative to contradict him, so if you go now, you will be in his hands." Zhou Xiaonan is colorful.
Xiaonan's mother hadn't fully understood yet, but the keen Su Tao quickly understood the point, "So Zhou Xiaobei hopes to use this to guide you to conflict with him, but what good is this for him?" ”
Zhou Xiaonan frowned, "This is for himself, but I think this should be something that is beneficial to us, which makes Zhou Xiaobei feel threatened, so he wants to force my father to make a trade-off between us by intensifying the conflict." Therefore, we must not go along with his wishes and endure for the time being, and it is in our best interest to maintain the status quo now. I'd love to see who couldn't hold my breath in the end. ”
Xiao Nan's mother seemed to understand whether she understood or not, but she also quieted down, but she still couldn't help but mutter, "Then give him the house for nothing?" Where am I going to stay these days? ”
"Mom, you're not short of money? Which five-star hotel in the city you can't afford to live in? Why don't you hold on to this!" Zhou Xiaonan said helplessly.
"What should I say when asked? Say I'm kicked out? That week, Liya's group of little sluts didn't know how to laugh at me behind my back! No, I can't stay in a hotel! Xiao Nan's mother refused again.
"Then you can go back to your grandmother's place for two days." Zhou Xiaonan suggested again.
"That's even more miserable. They will say that I was kicked out, not to mention, but to be kicked out penniless! I couldn't even afford to stay in a hotel, so I had to go back to my parents' home. "Xiao Nan's mother shook her head like a rattle.
"And what are you going to do?" Zhou Xiaonan was helpless and took a deep breath helplessly.
At this time, Su Tao suddenly spoke, "Auntie, why don't you directly book a ticket to travel abroad for a period of time?" directly claimed to the outside world that he didn't know about this at all, it was Zhou Xiaobei who kicked Zhou Xiaonan out of the house during the time you went abroad for a vacation, and Xiaonan didn't tell anyone in order not to worry his parents, but just moved out by himself. In this way, when Xiaonan's father comes back, you will be the one whose interests have been damaged and wronged, and you can stand on the moral high ground without worrying that this matter will make you lose face. Wouldn't that be the best of both worlds? ”
Xiao Nan's mother pondered for a while after hearing this, and Zhou Xiaonan couldn't help but say, "Mom, it's always okay like this, right?" You can go to Europe and have a good time for a while, just don't come back and cause trouble. ”
"How do you speak, kid?" Xiaonan's mother glared at Zhou Xiaonan with disgust, raised her eyebrows and said with satisfaction, "This method is okay, it's cheap Zhou Xiaobei's stinky boy, let him run rampant for so long, see how your father cleans him up when he comes back!" ”
Zhou Xiaonan was speechless in his heart, and didn't want to ignore her, so he responded vaguely, and hurriedly sent her away like a plague, watching Xiaonan's mother drive away in her red BMW, Zhou Xiaonan seemed to be obviously relieved.
"After solving my mother's big trouble, I can find out what Zhou Xiaobei wants to do." Zhou Xiaonan groaned for a while and said. "I'm really a little curious now, what was it that stimulated Zhou Xiaobei?"
"Xiao Nan, don't you think it's too tiring for you to live like this?" Su Tao looked at him with a complicated expression.
"Who can really live an easy life." Zhou Xiaonan sighed and slowly turned his head to look at Su Tao, "Each of us has our own fate and burdens that we can't get rid of, and some things are innate. From this point of view, Zhou Xiaobei and I are the same, we were born with the hatred and entanglement of the previous generation. Even if it's you, do you dare to say that Su Ying's matter has no effect on you? Do you think you can really just let it go and start a new life? ”
Su Tao smiled bitterly, "You're right. I can't just put it down. My sister died, died unexpectedly. I feel like I'm going to have to do something anyway. ”
"Even if this incident passes, it will penetrate deep into our bone marrow and flesh and blood, and become a part of us forever......" Zhou Xiaonan looked forward thoughtfully.
"Hey, why are you so hypocritical today?! It's not like you anymore! Su Tao teased, trying to break the dull atmosphere.
"Really, occasionally lyrical and still be ridiculed by you! In your eyes, what a superficial person I am~" Zhou Xiaonan sighed.
"Empty skin, that's probably it?" Su Tao deliberately pretended to have a sincere expression.
"Huh? You only noticed my beauty and ignored my talent and connotation. Su Tao, I didn't expect you to be such a person! Tsk~"
"Stop bragging, big brother! When it comes to beauty, your mother is the woman who really has peerless beauty......"
"You don't know how many beauty injections she has had and she has moved her nose, how can I be so natural!" Zhou Xiaonan did not hesitate to shake out his mother's black material to set off himself.
"You still have to be shameless, compare your appearance with your own mother~" Su Tao's tone became brisk, as if nothing unpleasant had happened today. Maybe if there are things that we all wish hadn't happened, we can pretend they didn't happen.
