Chapter 84: What's going on again
She would never mention this to her granddaughter, so she touched her head and said, "Ah Yi, thank you for your hard work." β
Jian Yi shook his head and said, "It's not hard at all. She rested her head on the old lady's shoulder, and the grandfather and grandson snuggled up to each other.
When Jian Yi received Zhou Qi's call, it was already a week later, school had already started, and she had just finished her last class and was about to go to the cafeteria.
She didn't want to take it, but in the end she picked it up and fed it plainly.
Zhou Qi's tone was also understated, and he asked, "Where did you move?" β
Jian Yi was silent for a moment, but still gave her an address, and said, "I'm still outside, and I won't be home until the party." β
Zhou Qi didn't speak, and hung up the phone directly.
When Jian Yi returned home, he had already arrived at home and was talking with the old lady. Seeing Jian Yi come back, he just glanced at her.
Aunt Qing was already preparing dinner in the kitchen, so she simply said hello and went to the kitchen to help.
During dinner, it was a little more lively than usual, and Zhou Qi kept praising Aunt Qing's craftsmanship, and Aunt Qing smiled from ear to ear, so that he would come over often in the future.
After dinner, Zhou Qi sat with the old lady for a while, then got up to say goodbye, and Jane consciously got up to send him out. The two went downstairs in silence all the way, there were piles of debris in the corridor, and they were kicked by Zhou Qi, who was walking in front, in the dim light.
Finally got downstairs, Zhou Qi didn't explain why the old lady's birthday was missing, and said with a slight frown: "I have an apartment over there in Jingjiang, and I'll move there tomorrow." After a slight pause, he continued, "Or move to where I live." β
The night breeze was howling, and the dim yellow light sprinkled on the path, falling dappled shadows of the trees. Jian Yi stared at the shadow underground, and said lightly: "No, it's good to live here." β
There were many more mosquitoes here than in the house, and after a while she was bitten and itchy. She looked at the time, hoping to end the conversation as soon as possible.
Zhou Qi's brows furrowed, and he said impatiently, "What are you making trouble again?" β
As he spoke, he reached for the cigarette case in his trouser pocket.
Jian Yi didn't say anything, grabbed the bag on his hand, and said, "Is there anything else?" It's okay, I'll go back first. She turned around and went upstairs.
Zhou Qi grabbed her, his hand was very strong, his brows furrowed even tighter, and said, "What are you making awkwardly?" β
Jian Yi asked him hard and said, "When did you see me making trouble?" I'm fine staying here and won't go anywhere. β
She said it in no uncertain terms.
Zhou Qi didn't speak again, just squinted his eyes and looked at her like that. After a while, he said, "Quite a temper." β
Jian Yi didn't say a word.
Zhou Qi said again: "Are you used to living here, are old ladies used to living here?" If you move to me, you can pay the rent. "He's taking a step back.
However, Song Jianyi did not intend to change his mind, and said lightly: "I said that I will not go anywhere." If my grandmother doesn't get used to it, I'll look for a new place. β
After she said this, she didn't look at Zhou Qi anymore and went straight upstairs.
The old lady had already returned to her room, and her hands were badly itched by mosquitoes. She found flower water to wipe it on, and was about to go back to the room, when Aunt Qing came out of the room and said to her, "Grandma hasn't slept yet, let you go in." β
The ground here is narrow, and the old lady lives in the master bedroom with Aunt Qing, and makes two beds.
Jian Yi hummed and went into the room.
The old lady leaned against the head of the bed, asked her to sit down when she saw her, and then asked, "Did Ah Qi tell you that we should move to him?" β
He had already mentioned it to the old lady before she returned.
Jian Yi nodded and said yes.
The old lady patted her hand and said, "I'm living well here, and I'm not going anywhere." Both now and later. β
She had already caused trouble for Jian Yi and didn't want to trouble her anymore. If she lived in the Zhou family's house before marriage, Jian Yi would not be able to raise her head even more after that.
Jian Yi nodded, said hello, and said, "Live here for a while, and then I will find a suitable house before moving." "She's been looking for a house these days, but she hasn't been able to find a suitable one. Plus she has already started to work, and she only has weekends to look at the house.
The old lady shook her head and said, "No, just live here, and you don't have to bother anymore." β
Jian Yi is noncommittal, it is not possible to continue to live here. This is an old neighborhood, you can live in the summer, but there is no heating in the winter, and the old lady will definitely not get used to it. She had to find a suitable house to move out in before the weather got cold. Moving is too much trouble to be treated casually anymore.
She was tired from work, and the old lady urged her to go to sleep without saying a few words to her.
She has been busy and tired all this time, and she has slept well. I don't know if I saw Zhou Qi or what the reason is tonight, I can't sleep when I lie on the bed for a while. I didn't go to bed until the early hours of the morning.
When I got home from work the next day, Zhou Qi came over again. Jane looked at him a little surprised, but said nothing.
This time, after dinner, the old lady asked the two to go out for a walk, which was different from the old mansion, and the two did not have a separate space to get along, and they couldn't even talk privately.
Jian Yi wanted to make an excuse to say that she was tired, but Zhou Qi stood up first and said, "Let's go." β
Jian Yi had to get up and follow him downstairs, tonight he walked a lot smoother, and didn't kick this or that anymore.
Jian Yi really didn't know what to say, and after going downstairs, he followed behind Zhou Qi, kicking the pebbles on the road. After walking for a while, Zhou Qi in front of him stopped, put his hands in his trouser pockets, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are you still angry about the old lady's birthday?" I had something to do that day, and I didn't mean to show it up. β
"No, you're thinking too much." Jian Yi's tone was nonchalant, and he had no intention of speaking.
Zhou Qi sneered, put his hands in his trouser pockets, and said, "Then tell me, where did I offend you." β
Jian Yi looked up at him and said, "When did I say you offended me?" β
"You didn't say it, but you're not here to be weird?" Zhou Qi mocked.
The two quarreled like this, and it was very naΓ―ve for Jian Yi to shut his mouth directly, stopped talking, and walked directly past him.
Zhou Qi didn't keep up this time.
Jian Yi shook around outside, although she was wearing long sleeves, the mosquitoes were still biting. She tried her best to endure it, and only then did she go back after Zhou Qi left.
But when he went back, Zhou Qi was still standing in place, he was answering the phone, he didn't know what he was saying, and his brows were furrowed tightly.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, he looked back, his eyes fell coldly on Jian Yi's body, and he took it back for a while before continuing to talk about the phone.
