Falling Out of the Rocks(14)
Zhong Mei led them to two adjacent rooms in the corner, where the beds were fully furnished, and at first glance, there were often guests who came to stay.
"Changsheng's friends sometimes don't want to leave, so I let him live at home, who makes him have more friends." Zhong Mei pointed to the room furnishings with a proud face: "It's much more comfortable here than if you go out to live in a hotel, and it doesn't cost money, how good." ”
Zhong Nuanyang frowned slightly, in fact, she would rather go out to live in a hotel than listen to Zhong Mei's boasting at this moment. With a smug face, she introduced the things at home which she had brought back from a trip abroad, and which ones had been shipped back from the big city at a cost, and her movements and expressions were eager to label everything and show them carefully.
Su Feng was very cooperative with an "oh" from time to time, and asked a few more questions about some decorations, which just satisfied Zhong Mei's vanity. Zhong Mei, who had been stinky since just now, quickly became complacent again, walked with her head held high, and the tone of her speech went up.
"You don't really want to stay here tonight, do you?" Zhong Nuanyang quietly grabbed Su Feng and asked while Zhong Mei was going to other rooms to get toiletries.
Su Feng raised his eyebrows at her playfully: "Know yourself and know your opponent." ”
Zhong Nuanyang's lips pursed, and finally reason prevailed over emotion, and he nodded reluctantly: "I don't want to say anything, I see that you play very well, so I'll leave it to you." ”
Su Feng scratched her nose lightly: "Don't worry, I promise to complete the task." ”
The intimate behavior of the two fell into the eyes of Zhong Mei at the door, she deliberately coughed heavily, and then looked at the two of them looking back, she smiled meaningfully: "Are you little couples secretly in love, don't worry, I'm very open-minded, and I won't sue your mother." ”
Zhong Nuanyang ignored Zhong Mei's ridicule, in order to make her attitude look less strange, and in order to ease the grievances in her heart, she looked at the things in Zhong Mei's hand and asked, "There is something I still want to ask, do you know that I bought the oil mill?" Why didn't you notify me in advance when I changed the lock? ”
Zhong Mei's face froze for a moment, but she reacted immediately, walked over with a smile and put her things on the TV cabinet that was airlifted back from the "big city": "Look at you, I still remember this, didn't my aunt tell you, it was all my aunt's kindness, and I forgot to inform you when I was in a hurry, and besides, haven't the oil mills been closed for many days, I think you still have to go to school, you must not be able to take care of these, and you can't catch up with it, isn't it ......"
"What about Lawyer Wang? Who hit him? Zhong Nuanyang asked, staring into her eyes.
"What lawyer Wang? I don't know anything, huh? What's wrong with Lawyer Wang? Did anyone hit him? Zhong Mei looked dazed and ignorant, and then slapped her thigh with a sudden realization: "You don't want to wronged us for prosperity, do you?" No wonder you asked me as soon as you walked in, I thought you finally remembered our relatives...... Empty tongues, aren't you wronged...... We're going to die ......"
Su Feng and Zhong Nuanyang glanced at each other, and the two of them shook their heads lightly when they saw Zhong Mei howling without tears, Su Feng coughed and took the initiative to stand up: "She also asked casually, Auntie, aren't you a local." I know a little bit more about it than we do, so I'm just asking you about it. ”
"Inquiring?" Zhong Mei quickly wiped the "tears" that didn't exist at all, and sniffled: "This kid, I can't speak clearly, I'll just say it, we are all relatives, but we can't be suspicious of each other, I think your boyfriend is still reasonable, Nuan Yang, my aunt understands that you still hold a grudge against us last time we came back, and we didn't have a good attitude, so now I doubt us like this, I don't get annoyed, and after a long time, you understand what blood is thicker than water, you say no, by the way, what is this young man's name?" ”
"Su Feng."
"Yes, Su Feng, Yangyang, the boyfriend and aunt you are looking for are very satisfied, remember to tell your aunt when you have a happy event one day, and give you a big red envelope. By the way, I still have something to do, so I won't accompany you for now, you will go out for a walk after you have eaten here, and your uncle has already put the meal on the table. Zhong Mei said this, and unconsciously wiped the fine sweat on her neck, as if she was anxious about something.
"Okay, you go get busy first, we just want to take a shower and rest first, it's too tiring to ride in the car." Su Feng yawned as he spoke, signaling Zhong Nuanyang not to speak.
Zhong Mei said a few more words of satisfaction before turning to leave, listening to the sound of her chunky heels on the stairs, the two of them coincidentally came to the window and looked downstairs through the curtains.
I saw Zhong Mei hurriedly out of the gate, and after the door was closed, she couldn't see where she was going.
"Came out to eat." A muffled voice rang out outside, accompanied by several knocks on the door, interrupting their gaze.
Su Feng pulled Zhong Nuanyang out of the door and saw that the mysterious uncle had already sat on the dining table in the living room, holding chopsticks and waiting for them.
"You...... Hello. Su Feng helped Zhong Nuanyang pull the back of the chair, then sat down himself, and took the initiative to say hello.
The uncle nodded expressionlessly, pointed to the food on the table, and only said one word: "Eat." "I'll move the chopsticks myself.
Zhong Nuanyang didn't have much appetite, she was full of curiosity about this uncle, and when he stopped chopsticks, she asked carefully: "Uncle, do you know where your cousin went?" ”
The uncle was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then shook his head and did not speak.
Su Feng gave a chopstick and cola chicken wings to Zhong Nuanyang, and said casually: "Uncle has good skills, you can taste it." By the way, listening to the accent, you should be from the north too, I taste this dish quite similar to ours. ”
Uncle nodded silently, put the food into the bowl himself, thought about it, and didn't eat it.
"Where are you from?" Zhong Nuanyang asked with interest.
"H City." The uncle hesitated for a while but then spoke, this time without moving his chopsticks.
"No wonder, it's only a few dozen kilometers away from our M city, and it's a fellow countryman. When did you get here? Su Feng took a sip of soup, praised the deliciousness, and continued to ask.
The uncle began to sigh a few times uncomfortably, and then silently put down his chopsticks and left the table without saying a word.
Zhong Nuanyang watched him walk out of the house with his hands behind his back, he didn't know what was wrong, and looked at Su Feng with some puzzlement: "Did we say the wrong thing?" ”
Su Feng shook his head, and also looked at the place where his uncle disappeared, which was a corner tower on the second floor, which looked like a grocery room.
After about ten minutes, my uncle walked out of there with something in his hand, walked straight to Zhong Nuanyang, and handed her a black sandalwood box: "This, you put it away." ”
Zhong Nuanyang opened it curiously and was surprised to find that it was a set of exquisite tortoiseshell jewelry, and the jade inlaid on it was somewhat faded, but it did not affect its beautiful appearance, and it should have been some years old from the outside.
