The car stopped at the door of the old house, but Jian Yi didn't get out of the car, sitting motionless. A pair of eyes stared ahead without focus.

Yesterday, Zhou mentioned the matter of working for her father, but she didn't agree, but she didn't expect her mother and Uncle Fan to mention it again today. She always felt that it was too much of a coincidence, as if they had agreed to it.

The phone rang on the side, and she didn't think about the mess anymore and picked up the phone. The call came from the old lady asking if she was coming and that they were ready for lunch.

Jian Yi replied that she was outside the door, so that they could eat first and not have to wait for her.

As she spoke, she got out of the car to open the courtyard door and drove the car in.

Although she didn't have to wait for her, everyone was waiting for her. probably knew that she said something she shouldn't have said last night, and Zhu Hong treated everyone attentively today, and no one was allowed to enter the kitchen after dinner, so she cleaned up by herself.

Jian Yi didn't care about her, and discussed with the old lady about purchasing New Year's goods.

Later, when she went out with Aunt Qing, Jian Yi learned that the old lady lost her temper again after she left last night, so that the family didn't want to go back for the New Year here, so Zhu Hong stopped making noise. She also knew that the old lady was angry, so she was so attentive today.

During the day, there was nothing to do, Zhu Hong rarely came to the city, and Song Weihe took the family out for a walk. went out and called Jian Yi and the old lady, but both of them refused.

After they left, the old house was quiet, and the old lady had not been able to sleep well all night before, so she sat on the sofa and took a nap. Jane coaxed her to sleep in her room.

Lying on the bed, Jian Yi thought that she was going to sleep and was about to go out when she went to stop her, sighed, and said, "Ah Yi, don't take your Aunt Zhu's words to heart, and don't bother with them." ”

She knew long before they came that this year would not be as smooth as usual, but she didn't expect Zhu Hong to gain an inch, and she really thought that she would be unscrupulous if she gave birth to a grandson to the Song family.

She didn't sleep much last night, she was very sad, she didn't expect that her son and daughter-in-law would divorce. I didn't expect that he would marry such a daughter-in-law again. If the old man underground knew, he didn't know what he would be angry about.

She had to admit that since the old man went, the Song family had really been defeated. She no longer expects her unpromising son to be able to support the lintel of the Song family.

Jian Yi knew that the old lady was thoughtful, sat down at the head of the bed, and said softly, "I know." Don't think about it, go to sleep. ”

The old lady nodded tiredly, and quickly closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Zhou Qi came over at ten o'clock in the twilight, and at that time Jian Yi was standing at the door of the house, looking into the distance steadily. This afternoon's weather is rare and no longer gloomy, sprinkled with a thin sunshine, and the sunset in the sky is embedded in a golden halo, gilding this bleak winter day with a bit of warmth.

She was so engrossed that she didn't wake up until the horn sounded.

The window glass was lowered, Zhou Qi's handsome face was revealed, he looked at her through the passenger seat, and asked with a smile: "What are you thinking, thinking so fascinated?" ”

Jian Yi said that he didn't think anything and opened the door. Let him drive the car into the yard.

The courtyard is clean and tidy, with a few dead leaves falling under the stone steps, and it is particularly peaceful in the twilight.

When Zhou Qi got out of the car, he first rubbed Jian Yi's head and asked, "What have you done today?" ”

Before Jian Yi could answer, Zhu Hong appeared at the door, swallowed what she was about to say into her stomach, and looked at Zhou Qi to greet her politely.

Zhou Qi naturally wouldn't be empty-handed, and brought miscellaneous things such as alcohol, drinks, supplements, etc., Zhu Hong smiled from ear to ear, and called Song Weihe to come out to help.

The atmosphere of the New Year is always joyful, and Zhou Qi had a few drinks with Song Weihe at dinner, and Zhu Wei was also by his side. It's just that he is silent as always, and occasionally Zhou Qi asks him about what he says, and it can be seen that he is very nervous, only when he drinks, he is very real, and he is not cheating and cheating.

Because of Zhou Qi's coming, the atmosphere at home was much better, and the old lady didn't smile much all day, but now she had a smile on her face.

Several people drank a lot of wine, and Zhu Wei, who had the lightest amount of alcohol, went back to his room early to sleep. Zhou Qi sat down and drank a cup of tea with the old lady and talked about work for a while.

Before leaving, the old lady sent them to the door alone, and said to Zhou Qi gently: "If you don't dislike it, come here for the New Year." ”

Zhou Qi naturally couldn't ask for it, and said with a smile: "I must come over, thank you grandma." ”

He drank wine and drove by Jian Yi, and the old lady told him to drive slowly and pay attention to safety on the road, until he watched their car disappear into the alley, and then returned home.

After drinking today, Zhou Qi didn't eat much, and when he got home, he asked Jian Yi to cook noodles for him, and he himself leaned motionless on the sofa like an uncle.

He has a lot of things to do today, and after eating noodles, he said that he had a headache and asked Jian Yi to press him. Jian Yi had to sit down on the sofa and press his head.

He has a lot to do today, but he is not as poor as he used to be. This obviously didn't look like his usual one, Jian Yi's subordinates softened a little, and asked, "What's wrong?" Isn't business going well? ”

Although he is busy and has a lot to do, he rarely brings his emotions at work to his home.

"Nope." Zhou Qi's voice was a little lazy, and he said, "I miss grandpa a little." ”

He still had a home when the old man was there, but after the old man left, he didn't even have a home. Now, although his parents call every year during the Chinese New Year, they can't make up for the hollowness in his heart.

Time flies very fast, and the old man has passed away for several years. Jian Yi's heart was inevitably sad, and he didn't know how to comfort him, so he remained silent.

Zhou Qi seemed to be very tired today, and it didn't take long for him to fall asleep. He has been very busy during this time, sleeping only a few hours a day. My whole body relaxed, and I fell asleep like that.

Jian Yi stopped what he was doing, didn't wake him up, and took a blanket to cover him.

His eyebrows were still slightly furrowed, and she watched quietly, and then went to wash lightly after a while.

Although it was the Chinese New Year, her part-time work did not stop. I couldn't do anything during the day, and now I started to get busy while I was sleeping. Not worried that Zhou Qi was alone in the living room, she didn't go to the study, just in the other corner of the living room.

Zhou Qi woke up at more than twelve o'clock in the evening, and when he opened his eyes, he couldn't tell where he was for a while. It was dark everywhere, except for a faint blue light coming from the front right. He didn't know after a while that he was in the living room, but he didn't expect to fall asleep like that, he pressed his eyebrows and sat up from the sofa.
