Ai Mushi has always disliked his name, not like a girl's name at all, so she gave this name only because her father used to be very artistically obsessed with the shrimp painted by Qi Baishi, so he raised a bunch of shrimp and wanted to learn to become a master like Qi Baishi.

Of course, these shrimps were all put into the oil pot by Ai Mushi's mother, and it was called adding meals to the family to strengthen nutrition.

After Ai's father's dream of painting shrimp was defeated by Ai's mother's more and more exquisite shrimp cooking skills in shrimp buying operations again and again, only the dream of the master of Simuqi Baishi remained.

"Are you content, your father wanted to name you Painted Shrimp, but it was ugly, originally, you should be called Mu Shi, the teacher thought that the word was difficult to write, and it would be called Mu Shi if you simplified it." She also has a younger brother named Ai Qingshi.

Ai Mushi almost wanted to cry without tears.

Forget about this kind of name, she's 25 years old this year, 25 years old.

Ai's mother looked at her with a kind of hatred for marrying every minute, and she would nag when she saw her at home, whose daughter got married last year and added a baby this year. Whose uncle is filial and handsome, and he also gives a lot of gifts to his parents-in-law's family and so on.

Ai Mushi couldn't cover his ears and fled to his room, Ai Mu would chase to the door and continue to chatter: The boy who the neighbor's aunt told you last time to introduce you is very good, go and see it, if you don't agree, let's look for it again, you are so old, you can't just run away all the time.........

Ai Mushi fled to the living room, and finally couldn't help but cry out angrily: "Dad, you still don't care about your daughter-in-law." ”

Ai's father hid on the recliner on the balcony of the living room, covered his face with a newspaper, and when he didn't hear it, he didn't see it, and he couldn't help but laugh at his face under the newspaper.

Ai Mushi had no choice but to open the door and escape from the house. The road she had taken was through the abandoned land of Tár, a road she didn't usually walk, with cars and dust.

But I don't care about it today, the company has fewer things, it's more leisurely, homesick, I ask for leave to come back, I want to accompany my parents, but I can't get quiet.

She muttered in her heart: I always ask me to marry someone, how can it be so easy to find someone, and it is not as simple as buying cabbage and radish in the market.

Now she just wants to go out for a walk and calm herself.

In the grass, I saw Ai Mushi, kicking the gravel under his feet, his hands in his jeans pockets, tying his ponytail, lowering his head, and walking slowly with a very troubled look, looking absolutely young and inactive, harmless to humans and animals.

"That's her." Tal decided.

Ai Mushi walked forward a few steps, and suddenly took a few steps backwards, then stopped and squatted down, pulling through the grass on the side of the road with his hand, carefully looking for something, until he fished out the stone of Tar from the shallow soil, held it in the palm of his hand, took out a tissue from his pocket, and carefully wiped it clean, the temperature between the warm palms made Tar realize that this first contact with a human felt quite good.

Ai Mushi didn't know how he knew that there was a black stone here, and dug it out, looking at it in confusion, a black stone the size of an egg and no egg bulge, glowing with cold light like ink.

After looking at it for a while, she decided to throw it away when she was sober, what was she going to pick up a rock for? But the next moment, as if enchanted, she slipped the stone into her trouser pocket again.

After Ai Mushi returned home, Ai's mother didn't talk about her anymore, and was discussing with Ai's father about the UFOs that appeared in the vicinity of her home half a month ago, as reported on the TV news, and why it was only reported now.

Talking about how it was the third watch in the middle of the night, they went to bed early, but unfortunately they didn't see it. I guess if there is something nearby that is interested in aliens, so I came here or something.

Of course, experts who have been imitated on the TV news are jumping out to refute the rumors, pointing out that the incident may be illuminated by the moon in the exhaust gas produced by the rocket flight.

The moon was big and bright that night. Or the sky is cloudy, just a little bright.

Just don't bother yourself, for the meaningless argument between the two, Ai Mushi didn't want to make any remarks, and after dinner, she went back to her room and lay on the bed to scroll through the web, she didn't pay attention to this kind of flying object report, anyway, it had nothing to do with her.

Ai Mushi's home is in a small county town called Renfeng, and she works for a company in Xinyuan City, the provincial capital, more than 300 miles away from her home.

The next day, Ai Mushi hurriedly packed her luggage and returned to Xinyuan, because she was worried that her parents should talk about her life's events after discussing the aircraft. It's really annoying.

After more than three hours of driving, when he arrived at the rented place, it was almost noon, Ai Mushi casually ate something outside and went back to the small room he rented.

This is an old-fashioned community, are the family building assigned by a wire equipment factory in the past, the yellow paint on the wall has been baptized by the years into a dark earth yellow, and the paint is mottled into a very vicissitudes of life.

The five-story hug, the ladder turning point and the walkway are all old-fashioned rust railings for protection.

There are two households on one floor and one floor, and the area of each household is very small, and there are about thirty or forty square meters of more than 20 square meters.

Ai Mushi lives alone, and he is very satisfied with one bedroom, one bathroom and one kitchen.

Rent a second floor of a household, and the rent is not expensive, although the interior wall of the house is also very old, buy some wallpaper to paste the effect is also very good.

When he took out the key to open the door, the neighbor opened the door, and a young woman greeted with a smile: "Coming back?" "The housewife on the other side of the door is surnamed Li Xiuli, she has given birth to three daughters, and her husband is a driver of a milk delivery company, as if her surname is Zhang.

Although Li Xiuli is very young, because she has been giving birth to a baby, her figure has been completely deformed, and the third baby she gave birth to is only seven months old, and her belly is still bulging and has not recovered to its original state.

But according to the conversations that sometimes come into conversation, in a few words, Li Xiuli is saying that her husband still wants her to have another son. It's horrible. Ai Mushi sympathized with her, and married someone and became a tool for giving birth to a baby.

"yes, just got back from my mom." Ai Mushi responded with a smile.

"It's good, if you're not married, you're free."

Li Xiuli was full of envy, she was almost worn to death by three babies every day. Running 24 hours a day, busy baby busy with housework.

When her husband came back, she thought that her house was too messy if she didn't clean up.

Ai Mushi smiled bitterly, those who were not married were urged to marry, and those who were married envied those who were unmarried.

After a few more cold words, she opened the door and entered her room, put down her luggage, and went to sit at the computer desk by the bed in the room.

Suddenly, she felt something in the front pocket of her pants, and Ai Mushi reached out and took out a black stone from her trouser pocket in confusion, and she couldn't help but widen her eyes.

She didn't remember how she had taken the black stone from home and drove it back to the rental house for hours.

Why didn't she take in any memories of the stone?

Finally, I can relax in my own little space. Ai Mushi looked at the ordinary stone he had picked up in confusion.

She must have been dizzy from Ai's mother's urging to marry, so she didn't notice it.

Ai Mushi casually threw the stone into the very clean trash can next to the table, and then went to pick it up and threw it on the computer desk.

She lay down on the bed, closed her eyes and rested, tired from the ride.

Tár's rippling eyes surveyed the small space, decorated with a few large pink rose stickers on the bedside, and two butterflies circling around the flowers.

There are small flower wallpapers all around, it seems to be quite clean and elegant, a computer desk, a bed, a simple wooden double-door wardrobe will take up a full space. There are also two sturdy bamboo chairs, not far from the door, lined up honestly by the wall. The space for people to move should only be seven or eight steps, and it is completely enough for one person to live.

Although the space is not big, one bedroom, it is simple and clean, and it is quite pleasing to the eye.

When Ai Mushi woke up, it was dark, it should have been more than seven o'clock, Ai Mushi woke up hungry, so he turned on the light, got up lazily and went to the small kitchen to boil water with an electric kettle, took a bucket of noodles and instant noodles in the kitchen cabinet to eat, and was too lazy to go out and buy it.

After she finished soaking, she took it into the bedroom and sat at the computer desk to eat, and the room was full of the fragrant smell of instant noodles, but Tal was very unaccustomed to feeling the smell of this food chemical flavor from humans.

Habitually turning on the computer, Ai Mushi clicked the mouse and was about to browse the web, and saw the black stone in the corner of the desktop, she remembered that it was thrown into the trash, why did it appear on the table again, this stone has long legs?

But the content of the computer web page successfully attracted Ai Mushi's attention, and while browsing and eating noodles, she quickly forgot that the stone existed.

After eating and drinking, Ai Mushi turned off the computer, went to wash up quickly, lay down on the bed again, and continued to browse the web with his mobile phone, browsing for a while, the caller ID interrupted the existence of the web page.

"Have you arrived at the place, pay attention to eating on time, don't starve yourself to lose weight." The phone rang, and as soon as he answered, it was Ai's mother's voice, and the initial greeting was quite moving, and then Ai's mother habitually mentioned finding her boyfriend again, Ai Mushi hurriedly found an excuse to hang up the phone.
