Chapter 238: Companionship
That, my parents invited you and your aunt to come to the house for dinner at noon the day after tomorrow. My mom should call my aunt tomorrow and tell you in advance, so you have to be mentally prepared. ”
I was excited, and Zhou Yu's words were like a rainstorm, extinguishing the fire in my heart. Somehow, I was nervous when I heard him say this, after all, this was the first official parent-teacher meeting.
Although they had already met last time under Zhou Yu's arrangement, it was the first time that such a formal invitation had been made.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here. My parents have a very good impression of you and your aunt, and they treat it as an ordinary meeting, as a celebration of our admission to the ideal university. ”
Perhaps discovering my nervousness, Zhou Yu slowed down his speech and persuaded softly.
He said it so reasonably, I couldn't help but think as he said. It seems that it is indeed much better, this kind of thing will always happen someday in the future, but fortunately, with the previous foreshadowing, there should be no problem.
Thinking about it, I felt a little relaxed in my heart, and I was still a little faintly looking forward to it.
"Well, you're right."
I pressed down the complicated emotions in my heart, and said with a smile in order to reassure Zhou Yu.
"Are you going to get together with Wei Wei and them tomorrow?"
Zhou Yu's voice came again, with a hint of uncertainty.
"No, I've been with them for so many days, so I have to spend more time with my mother. And school is about to start, and I have to cherish every minute of it. ”
And I said it as a matter of course.
"Yes, then you should accompany your aunt more during this time!"
I couldn't hear his emotions in the earpiece, but I was glad he understood me like that.
"Okay, I've been tired for so long, let's get some rest!"
Holding the phone, my eyelids began to drop involuntarily. I yawned heavily, and said sleepily.
"Well, good night!"
Zhou Yu said softly.
"Good night!"
I hung up the phone after saying the last two words, and for a moment sleepiness hit, and I didn't struggle too much, and fell asleep deeply.
When I woke up the next morning, I heard my mother's hearty laughter, and then expressed her slightly enthusiastic words: "Zhou Yu's mother, how embarrassing is this, the last meal was paid by your old Zhou, what will we say should we invite, so let's do it, the time remains the same, the purpose remains the same, but how about changing the location to my house?" ”
As soon as I heard this, I knew that my aunt had called, and as for the content of their communication, it was naturally what Zhou Yu told me last night.
I quickly turned a carp up, leaned over to the door, and listened intently to what was next.
"How embarrassing is this, oops, Zhou Yu's mother, you are too polite. Then I'll bother tomorrow, this trip, our Xiaomeng also gave Zhou Yu a lot of trouble! ”
After a long time, my mother's voice came again. It is estimated that Aunt Jiang persuaded my mother, and she agreed to Aunt Jiang's initial proposal.
"As long as the two children are good, those of us who are parents are not ......"
There was silence again, and then I heard my mother's voice with some feelings, and the more she spoke, the quieter the volume became, until at last she could no longer hear it.
I pressed my ear to the door, but there was silence outside.
I cautiously opened the door and found that my mother was long gone from the living room.
I was suspicious, went to the bathroom to wash up, and then ate my mother's breakfast at the table.
After a long time, my mother's bedroom door opened, and she walked out slowly. When she saw me at the table, she was stunned and quickly lowered her head.
But just when she was stunned, I saw her slightly reddened eyes.
It is estimated that the two women chatted about their mothers on the phone, and they were a little touched for a while.
"You're up!"
She walked over slowly, looked up again and returned to her usual appearance, and said with a smile.
"Well, have you eaten?"
I nodded in response, and then asked rhetorically.
"Eat."
She sat next to me and watched me gulp down my food, with a look of satisfaction.
"Zhou Yu's mother just called and invited us to go to their house for dinner at noon tomorrow."
She looked at me for a moment, and then said slowly.
"Do you agree?"
Although I knew the answer, I asked for the exit anyway.
"Agreed, his mom was very welcoming. Originally, I thought that they had a treat last time, and this time we would invite them back, but your Aunt Jiang was very enthusiastic, so I had to agree. Next time, let's come back. We can't make others feel that we are the kind of people who take advantage. ”
My mom said helplessly. Actually, I understand her, she definitely doesn't want her daughter to be looked down upon.
"Good!"
I swallowed the last bite of the bun and replied with a smile.
Seeing that I had finished eating, she was about to go to the kitchen with the bowl and plate, and when I said that I would come, she firmly disagreed, and in the end she had to listen to her.
"I'm going to the shop, you have fun at home!"
After washing the dishes, she tidied up her clothes and said to me who was watching TV in the living room.
"I'll go, I'll go."
I quickly picked up the canvas bag that I had prepared a long time ago, ran to the door as fast as I could, put on my shoes without waiting for her to refuse, and stood at the door waiting for her.
"You, let's go!"
She smiled helplessly, and finally compromised.
In the shop, she settles accounts, receives guests, and handles things; I read books, listen to music, watch movies. This way you won't get bored, and you won't delay each other's business. But when I occasionally raise my eyes and see each other's eyes, I feel that I am with each other.
The good times usually go by very quickly, and before you know it, the day passes. When I lay in bed, I was still lamenting the rapid passage of time, and when I woke up, I had to face new problems.
"Knock knock!"
Just as we were about to leave, there was a soft knock on the door. We both looked at each other, not knowing who was outside the door.
Eventually, my mom opened the door, and when people outside the house saw my mom, hearty laughter came in. I knew who was coming from inside the room, so I was too good at picking the time.
"Jinhua, are you going out?"
Uncle Li saw that my mother was dressed neatly and asked suspiciously.
"That's right, it's a pity that you didn't come to say hello in advance."
My mom said with some apologies and some blame.
"Uncle Li!"
I took advantage of the moment when the two of them were speechless and walked out, and called Uncle Li sweetly.
"Hey, Xiaomeng, I heard that you were admitted to the school of your choice. Uncle Li is saying come and congratulate you, you see, Uncle Li also brought a gift. Where are you going? ”
When Uncle Li saw me walking out, he immediately said with a smile, and raised the gift in his hand. His blessing to me was in the delicate little black pocket, and he handed it to me, and I looked at my mom and took it.
"Thank you, Uncle Li."
I politely thank you.
