Saturday.

When I woke up in the morning, I found my home quiet, barely making any noise.

I saw a few breakfast items on the table in the living room, two small buns, a stack of small pickles, and a small bowl of porridge.

I can't say that's what it's for me.

I went out and walked to the security booth where my aunt worked.

The aunt said, "You are up, there is breakfast at home, it is prepared for you, you can go back and eat." I'll come back at noon to cook and eat with you. ”

At noon, it was half past eleven when my aunt returned. She went directly into the kitchen, made three dishes in a short time, and said, "Shen Xiaochuan is out of the car, his brother and daughter-in-law are not at home, so I and your uncle will accompany you for lunch." ”

Then the three of us ate it.

At dinner, my aunt cooked four dishes, and Shen Xiaochuan's younger brother and daughter-in-law were also at home.

This makes me very happy, alone in a foreign country as a stranger, to have a home that is not my own home but can also find a home, the loneliness in my heart is suddenly a lot less, naturally I am very happy!

Looking back on the first three days, except for the girl named Chen Wanting, who invited me to breakfast on the first day, there was no more on the second day. I only have one meal in the company at noon, and there is no dinner and breakfast in the evening. I even thought, why didn't Ah Fen say he would invite me to breakfast every day yesterday morning?

Looking at today, I have three meals a day and are full and fragrant, I really enjoy it!

Sunday.

Auntie still prepared breakfast for me. At noon, I still ate with her and my uncle, and I was very happy.

At dinner, the scene changed dramatically-

My aunt actually made eight dishes and one soup, which was as festive as a big festival.

My uncle also took out a bottle of liquor and said that he would drink a little with me, which was a catch-up wine for his son.

At the dinner table, as soon as I moved my chopsticks, my aunt rushed to use another pair of chopsticks to pick up the food for me.

I looked around the dining table and noticed that five people actually had six pairs of chopsticks - the extra pair of chopsticks was different from the normal chopsticks, and it had grown a little more.

I thanked my aunt and began to eat.

Immediately afterwards, my uncle used the pair of long chopsticks to pick up the food for me, and poured me a glass of wine.

Then Shen Xiaozhou's younger brother used those pair of chopsticks to pick up vegetables for me.

Then, Shen Xiaozhou's brother and daughter-in-law also used those pair of chopsticks to pick up vegetables for me.

I ate in a hurry, nervously, and with a lot of fun.

Each of them served the food, and they all said, "Eat more, eat more." ”

I was overwhelmed, and I couldn't resist the hospitality, so I just buried my head in eating, and I didn't even have the space to say a kind word.

At first, I only thought on the bright side: they pity me and sympathize with me as a wanderer......

This made me feel warm, and the feeling of gratitude was indescribable......

"Recently, there has been an epidemic of hepatitis outside, and everyone has to be careful." My aunt said, put a few more mouthfuls of food in the bowl, and gave me a special look.

I didn't know what she was talking about, so I thought she was talking to her family, so I didn't think much about it, and I said "thank you" and started to eat it.

My uncle poured me another glass of wine, took a mouthful of food in my bowl, and said, "Come, Xiaolong, have another drink, and maybe when we will get together for a drink next time." ”

I picked up my glass and touched it with my uncle, and said, "I still have a bit of a drink, and if you are happy, uncle, I can drink with you every day." ”

Everyone looked at the uncle, and he looked a little weird.

The uncle drank all the wine in the cup, smiled a little embarrassedly, and said, "I don't drink much, and I don't usually have the habit of drinking, but I only drink a little when relatives and friends come or give people food." I'm drinking with you tonight, and I probably won't have this opportunity for a long time. ”

"It's okay, I'll have a chance to drink it later."

I said, suddenly I found a problem: everyone used the same pair of long chopsticks when they served me food, but they themselves used their own chopsticks to pick up the food. What's the problem? Maybe it's the special etiquette of Cantonese people to treat visitors? That's not right, it wasn't like that when I ate yesterday, was it? Is this a special etiquette that they only have when they drink a reception wine to their guests?

Yes, it must be so! How can you not respect other people's etiquette and customs! I thought it was a bit awkward, but I respected them.

In order to verify my judgment, I reached out to take a bite of the fish on my plate, but my aunt's long chopsticks quickly blocked it. Soon, a large piece of fish meat with long chopsticks between them went directly to my bowl.

My heart felt hot and my eyes were a little moist - what a family! What a warm uncle and aunt! I was so enthusiastic that I didn't even have to take a bite of food myself......

After eating, my aunt was cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, and I found out the problem-

My aunt put everyone's dishes and chopsticks in a basin, except for the ones I used, and took them into the kitchen alone.

What's the problem? I do not know. I just felt like there was a problem.

After they took a shower and fell asleep after dinner, when I was lying on Shen Xiaochuan's bed with Yi and reading, my aunt pushed the door and said to me, "You are snoring so much when you sleep!" ”

"Maybe, Auntie, I'm sorry to disturb you, right?" I quickly sat up from the bed and said.

"A little, but it's not too serious. Have you arranged where to eat and live? Auntie said a little embarrassed.

"Ah......, in this way, I will arrange it soon, so I will disturb you."

"There's no hurry, after all, it's not easy for you to go out, you can still stay in our house for a short time, and wait until you make arrangements. You go to sleep first. ”

After my aunt left, I tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.

I was wondering what the hell was the problem.

However, I couldn't figure out what the problem was, so I got up and went to the toilet, only to find out that there was a further problem in the trash can: my used dishes and chopsticks and wine glasses were thrown in the trash......

What exactly the problem is, I still don't know.

But I felt a tingling in my heart.

At the same time, I felt insulted! Or rather, I felt like I didn't fit in with their lives – at least, I wasn't the one they liked anymore......

This Sunday night, Shen Xiaochuan's family rested, but I couldn't sleep after tossing and turning, and I felt very awkward in my heart......

Where is this pick-up wine? It's clearly the practice of wine. Think about the words of uncles and aunts, where is the politeness and warmth? The subtext behind it is clearly an eviction order......

But why is all this?

Although this change of events came inexplicably, in any case, I think that I must have affected their families, and I should not affect them because of my arrival.

I decided I couldn't live in their house anymore.
