Chapter 19 Night Market Stalls
The two of them talked and laughed for about two hours before leaving the night market satisfied, and then bought some fruit before slowly returning to the rental house.
Fortunately, the security in the area rented by Li Xiaowan is okay, otherwise, with the two single beauties living in the old rental house, I am afraid it will be more auspicious.
"I'm so tired, I don't want to take a shower tonight." As soon as Qi Xin'er returned to the rental house, she didn't even bother to take off her shoes, so she collapsed directly on the sofa in the living room, although this sofa was dilapidated, but for Li Xiaowan and Qi Xin'er, they were already very satisfied, at least they could use it as a stool for eating, or sit on it casually and watch TV when they had nothing to do.
"If you don't wash it, don't wash it, I don't want to wash it tonight, but I still have to boil some hot water, so I can burn my feet, the water heater has been broken in the past two days, and I don't have time to find someone to fix it." Li Xiaowan said as she walked towards the kitchen.
Usually, they wash their hair and take a shower almost every night, and they have already formed a habit, and they feel uncomfortable if they don't wash for a day, as if they have obsessive-compulsive disorder.
I'm really too tired tonight, to be precise, I'm not in the mood to wash, especially Li Xiaowan, who is just thinking about getting it right and going to bed early.
"Yes, it's all to blame for the wind and kite, but I used to worship him so much, but I didn't expect him to be an out-and-out scum." But when Qi Xin'er finished speaking, she immediately began to regret it, and kept complaining to herself: Why can't she control her mouth, Xiaowan is already enough to make a fire today, and she is still talking nonsense here.
"For me, it doesn't matter anymore, everything about him has nothing to do with me." Li Xiaowan said lightly, but she couldn't calm down in her heart.
Because the electric kettle was used, it didn't take long for it to get hot, Li Xiaowan took two buckets from the bathroom, poured some hot water into them, and then brought one bucket to Qi Xin'er and said: "Xin'er, get up and wash your feet, after washing, lie down on the bed quickly, you have to go to work tomorrow!" ”
"Xiaowan, do you really want to go tomorrow?" Qi Xin'er sat up straight, ready to burn her feet, and asked.
"Of course, aren't you going?" Li Xiaowan looked at Qi Xin'er suspiciously, was this girl worried about something.
"No... All right! Qi Xin'er didn't say anything more.
"Xin'er, don't worry, it's okay, there are some things that have to be faced, as long as the sky hasn't fallen, anything can be solved." Li Xiaowan said this not only to comfort Qi Xin'er, but also to comfort herself.
"Xiaowan, I really admire you, after going through so many things, it is not easy for you to maintain such an optimistic attitude, you know? Many times when I see you pretending to be strong like this, I feel uncomfortable in my heart, and I don't know where your brother and sister are, after looking for so many years, I haven't even heard from you. Qi Xin'er felt very anxious and sad for Li Xiaowan.
Their hometown is not very far away, and they have been playing together since they were children, since Li Xiaowan's parents left, except for the neighbors who would pick her up from time to time to have a meal or something, most of the time they stayed at Qi Xin'er's house, at that time Qi Xin'er's mother and Li Xiaowan's mother were very good, until now, Qi Xin'er's mother can't help crying every time she mentions Li Xiaowan's mother, so everyone can not mention it.
For Li Xiaowan, the Qi family is the second home in her life, and the people of the Qi family are also very good to her, there are Qi Xin'er sisters, there are Li Xiaowan, and sometimes the neighbors joke with Li Xiaowan: "Xiaowan, or you will be like Xin'er, call her parents parents." ”
It's just that whenever this happens, there is no need for Li Xiaowan to respond, as long as the Xin'er sisters are present, or Xin'er and her parents are present, they will directly warn the person who speaks, so that they don't talk nonsense in front of Xiaowan.
These Xiaowan are all in her eyes, she knows that they don't want to make themselves sad, and she really doesn't have the idea of changing her words, especially before the age of ten, Li Xiaowan always thinks that her parents have just left her temporarily, and she will come back soon, so that she often has nightmares, always dreams that she runs behind her parents, and sometimes even her shoes run away, but she still hasn't caught up with them, many times, when she wakes up, she is unconsciously already in tears, but fortunately, Xin'er's mother is there, As long as Li Xiaowan stays at her house, she usually goes to Li Xiaowan's room in the middle of the night to inspect it, even if it is a cold winter.
"Xiao Wan... Xiaowan, why are you distracted again, the water is cold! Don't wash it anymore and be careful of catching a cold. Qi Xin'er stretched out her hand and shook Li Xiaowan's arm.
"Xin'er, thank you, thank you Uncle Qi, Aunt Qi, thank you Lily." Lily is Qi Xin'er's younger sister, Qi Xin'er was frightened by Li Xiaowan's sudden few thanks, she wasn't all fine at first, why did she become so sentimental all of a sudden.
"Xiaowan, do we still need to say thank you, besides, your Uncle Qi and your Aunt Qi have long regarded you as their own daughter, when you are not there, my mother often nagged in my ear, you and Lingling don't bully Xiao Wanha, Xiao Wan is the same as you, they are my sweethearts, God knows, when have we bullied you!" Qi Xin'er has been helpless until now.
"Hey, hey! No wonder you have been letting me since I was a child, if you have any delicious food or beautiful clothes, you always give it to me first, it turns out that Aunt Qi instructed it, it turns out that you and Lingling are not sincere. Li Xiaowan wanted to tease Qi Xin'er well.
"Wronged, what's the matter, don't you know if Lingling and I are sincere to you?" Qi Xin'er said with a flustered expression, for fear that Li Xiaowan would misunderstand.
"Okay, tease you, you are good to me, I see it in my eyes, before Lingling went to college, I should have made a contribution, but you and Uncle Qi and Aunt Qi refused to let me live or die, especially you, and threatened to break off friendship with me, I had no choice but to give up, but from now on, I will definitely work hard to make Uncle Qi and Aunt Qi have a good old age, and let you and Lingling live a better life." When Li Xiaowan said this, she saw more perseverance and unyielding in her eyes.
"Bad Xiaowan, tease me again, don't think about us, as long as you can live a happy life, we will be satisfied, it's a pity that the sky is not satisfactory, but I believe that with Xiaowan's kind, diligent and unyielding character, one day you will embark on a life that is brighter than the sun, and I Qi Xin'er will definitely not look away." Qi Xin'er has always known that Li Xiaowan is by no means a person who is willing to be mediocre, she will one day definitely move towards a better life through her own efforts, and she must keep up with Xiaowan's pace and not fall too far behind.
"Xin'er, I have to borrow your auspicious words, if one day, like you said, I will definitely invite you to have a good meal, rest assured, it will definitely be enough." Li Xiaowan said cooperatively.
"Let's make it clear first, you can't just eat it!" Qi Xin'er found that Li Xiaowan's expression began to gradually unfold slowly from the gloomy face when she came back just now, and she was also very comforted.
"No problem, it can't be just one meal, it must be managed for life." Li Xiaowan said seriously, when she said this, she really came from the bottom of her heart.
"It's a deal!" Qi Xin'er said happily, in fact, she didn't really want Li Xiaowan to take care of her for the rest of her life, in her heart, as long as she saw Li Xiaowan doing well, she would be happy.
"Don't worry, a word is a certainty, and the horse is hard to chase." Li Xiaowan said affirmatively, then took out her mobile phone and looked at the time, and then said: "Xin'er, it's not early, let's rest early!" ”
"Okay, are you still running tomorrow morning?" Qi Xin'er asked.
"Run, why don't you run, as long as there is no special delay, I will definitely persevere." It can be seen that Li Xiaowan is a very willpower person, unlike some people, she is interested at first, and in the end she just left it behind.
"Well, then you should go to bed early, good night!" After Qi Xin'er finished speaking, she directly pushed open the bedroom door, and then locked the bedroom door.
They rented a house with two sets, although it was a set of two, but because of its remote location, it was not very expensive, and the landlord was very good, after understanding their difficulties, they also gave them two hundred yuan cheaper, so Li Xiaowan and Qi Xin'er only gave two hundred yuan symbolically every month, and the two hundred yuan also included water and electricity bills.
In such a bustling metropolis, being able to find such a good landlord among thousands of people can only show that it is fate in the dark.
However, Li Xiaowan and Qi Xin'er always keep in mind the truth that a little bit of kindness should be reciprocated.
Originally, before going to bed, Li Xiaowan always thought that she must have fallen asleep as soon as she dipped her pillow, but what she didn't expect was that she had been lying down for almost an hour, and she was never sleepy, and she couldn't sleep after tossing and turning, and if she continued like this, it was estimated that she would lose sleep until dawn.
Li Xiaowan tried her best to hold her mind, raised her eyes to look at the ceiling, and kept chanting: "One star, two stars, three stars, four stars... A thousand stars, a thousand and one hearts..."
Who said that counting the stars if you can't sleep is useless! Li Xiaowan's heart felt both irritated and funny, and she couldn't remember how long it had been since she had insomnia for so long like tonight.
"Ding ding..." Li Xiaowan's mobile phone on the bedside table suddenly sounded, in the dead of night, it seemed extremely clear and harsh, and it really scared Li Xiaowan, and she was almost scared to jump out of bed directly, but at this moment, her heart was really 'dong dong' and kept beating.
"Who the hell is it, I still send messages in the middle of the night, most of them are harassing text messages." Li Xiaowan didn't want to pay attention to it, but after thinking about it, she couldn't sleep anyway, so it was better to see what was sent first, and play with her phone for a while by the way, maybe she would fall asleep while playing.
