After Tang's father fell seriously ill, although he took proper care and lost his physical condition, he just wanted to take the glasses a little farther away from the table, but his wrist was weak and knocked down the vase that had just been changed, and the front of the brown cardigan immediately wet a large piece. He didn't want to alarm his wife and Sister Bi, who were busy helping, so after changing his clothes, he found a rag to wipe the table.

At this time, Tang's mother happened to pass by the living room, and when she saw her husband like this, she stopped and said: "You don't need to do this, it's clean enough up and down, and it's not to receive the head of state." Father Tang opened his mouth to explain, thought about it, smiled and said, "Yes, then you and Sister Bi will stop for a while!" Mother Tang muttered, holding a non-slip blanket taken out of the attic and walked towards the entrance. Father Tang quietly glanced at his wife who was changing the blanket under the corridor through the glass window, and pursed his lips and laughed, this old woman has been so wrong for most of her life.

After reconciling with her son, the family of three finally got together for a dinner, the atmosphere was happy, the old woman's posture suddenly became awkward, and she said to Tang Jianyu in a posture: "Ayu, my father and I have always been polite and courteous, right?" This brainless sentence stunned Tang Jianyu, and nodded confusedly, "What do you want to say?" Tang's mother grinned, rubbed her hands again, and finally said, "You are in the town, and you have been taken care of by Boss Shi and his wife......" She looked at the two men and whispered: "On Labor Day, they are busy with the couple, and my daughter doesn't have to take a vacation when she goes to work......"

At this time, Tang Jianyu's head was bright, and his reaction was simply quick, and he blurted out and confirmed: "Do you want to invite Jiaojiao to come to the house to see your father?" Tang's mother showed a painful expression that was suddenly poked by a thin needle, and quickly retreated, cleared her throat and said, "How many times have you been to someone's house?" Is it reasonable for me to invite her to my house and meet her? Tang Jianyu nodded and said that it was reasonable, and said with a smile seriously: "Then I'll tell her to prepare in advance." ”

"What to prepare, what to prepare." This sentence became a mantra that Tang Jianyu's mother always talked about before Shi Jiaojiao's arrival. Father Tang was happy to see the woman's hard mouth, and muttered, "It's not the first time I've come," while his eyes sharpened to examine whether the furniture in front of him was neat and tidy...... "What do you see!" Tang's mother put down the blanket and came back to see her husband in a daze, so she walked up to her and said, "What, I'm afraid that I'm not thoughtful, overseer?" Father Tang didn't speak, just pursed his lips and smiled.

The woman felt that she had been seen through, and raised her hand in a bluff, "I know that you are also uncomfortable, Xiao Bi and I still want to wipe the escalator, so I will ask you to wash the fruit out, I will put it in the pool." Tang's father replied "yes", rolled up his sleeves and prepared to start work, Tang's mother pressed her husband's hand in a panic, unfolded the half-rolled cuffs and said: "Why did the cardigan change to the vest, the weather is still a little cold, but it is not younger than Xiao." Waterproof sleeves are in the front pocket of the apron, strap on. ”

Sister Bi came over with a twisted rag, and when she saw the couple getting closer, she was startled, and was just about to avoid it but was seen by Tang's mother, "What are you hiding, it's nothing!" Besides, how old are we! Sister Bi nodded with a smile and said, "The escalator has been wiped and wiped with a dry cloth." Anything else to get? Tang's mother looked at the clock, it was not yet nine o'clock in the morning, and it was still early, so she said, "No, go drink a glass of water and rest for a while, and we will go grocery shopping in a while." ”

Sister Bi lowered her head and smiled, "Then I'll wash the fruit." Tang's mother bent her eyes when she heard this, and she glanced at her husband with a smile and said yes. Who knew that as soon as Sister Bi walked out of the side hall, she turned back again, pointed to the door and said, "It seems that someone is knocking on the door, is it coming?" Tang's mother glanced at the clock again, with a puzzled expression, "Didn't he go to the research institute, and the two met in the city and came back for lunch?" Why so early? Father Tang moved his eyes, "It's not necessary to go directly to the town to pick it up, open the door." ”

Tang's mother gathered her hair on the spot, went to the room to change into a solemn parquet sweater, quickly checked her appearance, and then walked out, took her coat on the hanger by the entrance, and said to Sister Bi: "Wash the strawberries a little more, that girl seems to love to eat." With that, he straightened himself and walked down the cloister onto the stone path in the small garden, which was a little damp from watering the flowers in the morning. The people outside the door seemed to be unable to wait, and when they saw that no one answered the knock on the door, they finally thought of ringing the doorbell. "Don't press it, don't you have the key?" Tang's mother responded loudly, and her feet also quickened her pace.

"What are you looking at?" Tang Jianyu asked Shi Jiaojiao with a smile, Shi Jiaojiao sat up straight and said, "It turned out to be camphor, I thought it was Wutong!" Tang Jianyu bit his lip and said softly: "Even if you can tell you what tree species are on the side of the road, the taxi master can't find my house with this......" Shi Jiaojiao's cheeks were immediately dyed with color when she heard this, Tang Jianyu laughed, seeing that the wide road was empty, he couldn't help but hold Shi Jiaojiao's with his free hand, and said: "If you come more, you will naturally know each other, and besides, there is always me as a driver." ”

After a block of brick and brown townhouses, the car turned left onto a quiet lane that was two lanes narrower than the main road. On both sides of the road are sturdy and beautiful plane trees, and the new leaves have just been stretched, and they look like green flowers gathered in the sun. In the large green area behind the trees, the outline of a beautiful house is faintly revealed.

Shi Jiaojiao looked at the path, and at the end of her line of sight was formed by the branches of the sycamore tree, and there was no closed exit. She suddenly exclaimed, "Ah...... It turns out that this is the Sycamore! Tang Jianyu asked in surprise when he heard this, "Do you remember if you only walked once at night?" That's not a road idiot. Shi Jiaojiao's expression had become very tight, and she didn't care about replying at all, and her hands were subconsciously clasped in front of her chest, "It's almost there." What to do......"

Tang Jianyu walked in front with the gifts that the two of them had worked together, and Shi Jiaojiao followed behind him with a bouquet of flowers. From the moment she got out of the car, she was stupid, her expression panicked, and her steps were sticky and hesitant. Tang Jianyu couldn't help but stop, and turned his head to look at Shi Jiaojiao who fell behind her, wearing an elegant long dress, a light-colored tweed windbreaker on the outside, and a bouquet of white lilies and pink roses in her hand, which made her face delicate and delicate.

Seeing her beautiful appearance, Tang Jianyu felt his throat tighten, his scalp tingled, and his voice that originally wanted to show a gentle voice was a little hoarse, "What's wrong?" Shi Jiaojiao's arms tightened a little, and her eyes were as pitiful as small animals, "Wait, wait a minute, I, I'm not mentally prepared yet!" "It's exactly the same as when I first came here all those years ago! When she said this, he replied with a funny feeling: "What are you going to do to prepare for it?" ”

Who would have thought that perhaps as early as that time, the seeds of love between men and women were sleeping in their familiarity, and today they would bloom untouched. Tang Jianyu felt that his heart was swollen by something, and it was about to overflow...... He stared at her face, smiled, and said softly, "I've been preparing for so long, I don't need to prepare anymore." "Huh?" Shi Jiaojiao stared like a little squirrel.
