Chapter 81

The next day, Xu Lei got up early in the morning.

Although the weather was very cold, it couldn't stop his fiery heart.

I was bored at home for more than a month: first I repaired the house and built glazed tiles, and then I kept helping others to stir vegetables, and I never had time to come out.

It's rare that Dad Xu raised his noble hand, and finally gave a day off to see his 'girlfriend', and he had to hurry up!

Xu's mother prepared two boxes of drinks, a good cigarette and two packets of fruits, and asked Xu Lei to bring them over, so she should send them to the New Year in advance.

Put the things away, Xu Lei rode the broken electric donkey to 'Xiaoyu''s house.

Her home is very close to the county seat. In another two or three years, if the county expands outward, it will be connected to the city.

Xiaoyu's father is also a teacher, with decades of teaching experience, and is the vice principal of the township primary school where he is located. I heard Xiaoyu say that he is more conservative and a little old-fashioned.

Xiaoyu's mother works in the government, but I didn't hear anything specifically, it should be about women's departments and the like. Although I've been working for a long time, I don't seem to like my boss, and I'm still a clerk. Xiaoyu said that what she was most afraid of was her mother, who nagged and wanted to die......

Following the address given by Xiaoyu, I asked several people along the way, and finally found her home.

The building has three floors and a large courtyard, which looks quite magnificent. It shouldn't be allocated by the government, probably built at their own expense.

Xu Lei knocked on the gate outside the courtyard.

After a while, the door opened, and it was a middle-aged woman in her forties and fifties: she was very neatly organized, and at first glance she was a shrewd person.

Xu Lei saw that she was somewhat similar to Xiaoyu, and estimated that this should be Xiaoyu's mother. stepped forward to greet him: "Hello aunt, my name is Xu Lei, Xiaoyu's 'boyfriend'." "It's a little unnatural when I talk about my boyfriend, and I use an embarrassing smile to cover it up.

Xiaoyu's mother glanced at Xu Lei and couldn't see any expression. When he noticed the broken battery car behind Xu Lei, he frowned unnoticed.

She opened the door and said in a cold tone: "Xiaoyu went out to buy something, you come in first and wait for a while." ”

Xu Lei was a little confused: Didn't you say that the mother-in-law looked at her son-in-law, and the more she looked at ......it, the more she liked it? What's the situation?

Xu Lei brought the things he brought in. Seeing that Xiaoyu's mother had no intention of taking over, she put it on the coffee table in the hall.

Xiaoyu's mother brought a glass of boiling water, put it in front of Xu Lei, and asked tentatively: "I heard that your store in the city is not open? Is it unsustainable? Or is it the reason?"

Xu Lei replied: "The rent is too high, it's not cost-effective, so I can't open it."

The expression on Xiaoyu's mother's face turned a little colder, and she muttered in her heart: Her aunt also said that he has good craftsmanship! He can't even earn rent, what kind of craftsmanship can he have?

Then he asked, "I heard Xiaoyu say that you talked about it well, and if you don't open a store, what are you going to do?"

"Heh, it's okay to talk. Xu Lei picked up the water cup on the table, took a sip of water and replied, "It should be better to open a store and find a place with a lower rent." ”

Xu Lei couldn't see what Xiaoyu's mother's expression was, so he felt like he had made a mistake when he was a child, and was taken to the office by the teacher for questioning. It's a bit of a trembling......

Xiaoyu's mother didn't speak for a long time, and said as if she thought of something for a long time: "Have you talked about a girlfriend before?"

Oh...... When you enter the door, you look at people, and then ask about career, and now talk about feelings?

Xu Lei thought about it, this question seems to be nothing difficult to answer, and now there are a few young people who have never been in love before getting married.

said honestly: "I talked about one in college, and we broke up when I graduated." ”
