Chapter 365: Uninvited Guest (3rd Watch)
Xu Mei looked haggard and stood at the door a little shyly.
Concubine Tao looked back at Lin Mengmeng, who was still holding a poker, and then turned back to look at Xu Mei: "You...... Something? ”
Xu Mei bent her somewhat chapped lips and squeezed out a smile: "I just saw you in the hall, are you going home for the New Year?" ”
When Lin Mengmeng heard Xu Mei's voice, her hairs stood up, and she looked at Zhou Cangbei with a little nervousness.
Zhou Cangbei only frowned slightly, got up and walked towards the door.
Xu Mei saw Zhou Cangbei coming, and her eyes lit up: "Cangbei, are you going home for the New Year this year?" ”
But her heart was a little sour, the Spring Festival when she and Zhou Cangbei were together, Zhou Cangbei didn't even call back, but now she wants to take Lin Mengmeng home for the New Year.
Zhou Cangbei nodded slightly: "Why are you here?" ”
Concubine Tao sympathized with Xu Mei a little, what else can people do when they appear here? Home, of course! It is estimated that only Zhou Cangbei in the world will ask this, and it is estimated that his IQ has given him a job.
Xu Mei looked at Zhou Cangbei, the expression on her face was about to crack, she sat in the car for a few days, and stayed in the lobby of the guest house for another night, at this time she was embarrassed, Zhou Cangbei even asked her why she was here?
"I'm also going home for the New Year, but I didn't buy a train ticket on a snowy day, and I didn't even have a place to stay." Xu Mei could only bite the bullet and say it.
Lin Mengmeng quietly walked over and stood behind Zhou Cangbei, looking at Zhou Cangbei's back a little nervously, Xu Mei said that this is the part, if it doesn't help, it can't be reasonable. But if she helps, she feels very uncomfortable, because Xu Mei obviously has no love for Zhou Cangbei, will her help again and again make her more sticky to Zhou Cangbei.
Zhou Cangbei reacted very quickly, and hummed: "You go in the house and sit down, I'll go find you a place to live." ”
Later, Zhou Cangbei went out for a spin and came back, and asked Xu Mei to rest.
Waiting for Xu Mei to leave with the waiter, he sat down with a calm expression, grabbed the poker and asked, "Do you still play?" ”
Concubine Tao's head is black, big brother, how big is your heart? I didn't see that your little vinegar jar was about to turn over.
Zhou Cangnan asked, "Is Xu Mei settled?" ”
"Well, go live with the waiter."
Lin Mengmeng was instantly happy, this arrangement is very good! She was satisfied! There is no intimacy and retains the human touch that should be.
At lunchtime, I met Xu Mei again in the canteen of the guest house.
Concubine Tao and Lin Mengmeng both felt that Xu Mei was a little deliberate, they came down late enough, they had already staggered the lunch time, and it was such a coincidence that they could still meet Xu Mei.
Xu Mei generously sat down directly at Concubine Tao's table this time, and said to Zhou Cangbei with a smile: "Thank you, otherwise I still have to sit in the hall now." ”
Zhou Cangbei just hummed, and ate with dishes and vegetables, as if Xu Mei didn't exist.
Lin Mengmeng was a little embarrassed, and her appetite became bad in the face of Xu Mei, and she listlessly pulled the white rice in the bowl.
"Don't be a picky eater!" Zhou Cangbei added a chopstick, sea rice and winter melon, and put it into Lin Mengmeng's bowl.
Lin Mengmeng sighed, and very obediently pulled the winter melon strips into her mouth.
Xu Mei was really shocked, Zhou Cangbei still had such a side.
After eating lunch awkwardly, Xu Mei hesitated and said, "Cangbei, have you bought a train ticket?" I haven't bought it yet, aren't you soldiers a priority? Can you buy one for me? ”
If it had been before, Xu Mei would definitely leave proudly, this time when she saw Zhou Cangbei facing Lin Mengmeng, she was a little unconvinced, and she unconsciously carried a resentment on her body.
Lin Mengmeng looked up at Zhou Cangbei, and sighed slightly in her heart, even as a fellow countryman, Zhou Cangbei is not easy to refuse, let alone his ex-wife!
Unexpectedly, Zhou Cangbei just frowned: "Now there are more passengers stranded at the station, and there are many old and weak women and children, if it is not a special situation, don't look for a relationship to buy a ticket." ”
Concubine Tao looked at Zhou Cangbei with a smile in her heart, and silently added a sentence for him, leaving the seat for the passengers in need!
Xu Mei was completely embarrassed, blushing and getting up to leave.
Concubine Tao originally thought that this little episode would pass like this, but she never expected to meet Xu Mei again in the crowded waiting room on the third day.
After the snowstorm passed, the train slowly resumed operation.
Zhou Cangbei and they have a special approval from the military region, and they can arrange seats when they get on the train with the slips and find the conductor.
So they don't worry about the seats, they stand behind the bustling crowd, intending to wait for the people in front of them to get on the bus, and then they get on the bus.
I didn't expect to meet Xu Mei here!
Xu Mei was a little thinner than the previous two days, her face was flushed like a fever, and when she saw Zhou Cangbei, they smiled slightly, but they didn't speak.
When they started to get in the car, Xu Mei always followed behind them.
Zhou Cangbei took everyone directly to the soft sleeper car, found the train captain, and arranged for the four of them to live in the reserved soft sleeper box.
The four of them just lived in one room, Concubine Tao and Lin Mengmeng lived in the lower bunk, and Zhou Cangbei and Zhou Cangnan lived in the upper bunk.
Lin Mengmeng patted the bed a little happily: "It's not bad, you can go to the provincial capital after eating, sleeping and sleeping." ”
Concubine Tao was not very optimistic, but she saw Xu Mei following them into the hard sleeper car next door, and she was afraid that she would find it soon.
She just couldn't figure it out, how could a woman who could divorce and let go freely at the beginning not think about it at this time and wrap it up tightly?
With a flute, the train slowly pulled out of the platform.
Xu Mei came faster than Concubine Tao expected, and within ten minutes of the train leaving the platform, Xu Mei came over.
Standing at the door and looking at Zhou Cangbei, who was standing next to the bed and cleaning up the upper bunk: "I really can't buy a ticket, the hard seat car doesn't even have a place to put my feet down, and the hard sleeper car is not allowed to sit ......"
Lin Mengmeng half leaned on the quilt, looked at Xu Mei, who was a little abnormal with a red face, and suddenly sat up and pulled the hem of Zhou Cangbei's clothes: "Let Xu Mei sleep on your top bunk, let's squeeze it at night." ”
Zhou Cangbei turned his head to look at Xu Mei, was silent for a moment, and then nodded: "You go to the upper bunk to rest." After speaking, he sat down next to Lin Mengmeng.
Xu Mei really unceremoniously took off her shoes and climbed to the top bunk, and the atmosphere in the carriage instantly became awkward again.
Concubine Tao raised her head, her eyes just happened to see Xu Mei's face, and the question in her heart was even greater, Xu Mei really had an unforgettable old love for Zhou Cangbei?
Zhou Cangnan was completely undisturbed by them, put away his luggage, went to wash a few apples and came back, sat down beside Concubine Tao, and concentrated on peeling apples for Concubine Tao to eat.
Because Concubine Tao said that she should eat more apples, the skin in the stomach can be white and pure.
Zhou Cangnan attaches great importance to this issue, and watches Concubine Tao eat apples every day, in case a girl's skin follows him, how ugly it is black and shady!
