Chapter 24: He's Interesting
At this point in time, there were many people coming in and out of the gate of the community, and Xiang Huan still found Xu Jiandong waiting for her at a glance.
Xu Jia's second young man looked good, and his previously injured arm was not bandaged continuously.
He also saw Xiang Huan crossing the road and shouted loudly for her to pay attention to the car.
"I haven't eaten yet, what do you want to eat?"
Xiang Huan looked at a couple of men and women walking past him, carrying the vegetables they had bought, discussing what to do for dinner.
Xu Jiandong also looked at it, "If you want convenience, go to my house, and I will cook home-cooked food for you." ”
"Your home, it's your dormitory." Xiang Huan thought about the journey to his bungalow dormitory, and he didn't really want to go.
Who knew that Xu Jiandong raised his hand and pointed to the community behind him, saying that his house was inside, and he would be there in a few steps.
"Did you buy a house here?" Xiang Huan followed him into the community.
Xu Jiandong's home is on the third floor, with an area of more than 80 square meters, and it is very clean, but it is not often inhabited.
Xiang Huan followed Xu Jiandong into the kitchen, and when he saw the fresh vegetables that had been prepared on the countertop, he asked him what to do if he had eaten.
It's not in vain, it's nice to say hello early.
Xu Jiandong washed his hands and began to chop vegetables, "I didn't have much hope when I was looking for you, if you don't come, I'll eat it myself." ”
Xiang Huan stood aside and watched, "The house has been bought, is the next step to prepare for a second marriage, and there is a goal?" ”
Xu Jiandong smiled, put the shredded potatoes in the cold water, and said nothing.
Three dishes and one soup were served quickly.
When Xiang Huan went to the bathroom to wash his hands, he remembered that he hadn't told Xiao Wu that he wouldn't go over to eat, so he picked up his mobile phone and sent a WeChat message.
Xiao Wu didn't reply, and when she sat down to eat, she received Cheng Ye's WeChat.
Tell her to pack food and bring it to her room later.
Xiang Huan glanced at Xu Jiandong, who was still in the kitchen, and replied to WeChat to tell Cheng Ye that she didn't care about her when she was not in the hotel.
I really didn't care about it over there, and I didn't ask her where she was going.
Xu Jiandong's cooking skills seem to have improved a lot, Xiang Huan ate a lot, and jokingly asked him if he wanted to open a restaurant in the town to do a side business.
"There have been a lot of tourists in the town since last year, and the timing should be good to come and open a shop." Xu Jiandong took out a tissue and handed it to Xiang Huan.
Xiang Huan wiped her mouth and said that she had also found it when she was walking around the town today, and even the chain of coffee that was available all over the country had been opened.
"What are you going to do here?" Xu Jiandong took the initiative to ask.
"It's not us, it's him, he wants to open a coffee shop in the town too." When Xiang Huan talked about this, he couldn't help but think of the two-story abandoned building again.
Xu Jiandong thought for a while, "I heard that he was recognized by the family, shouldn't he develop better in Lincheng." ”
Xiang Huan smiled, "You are not in the rivers and lakes, but you know everything in the rivers and lakes." ”
Xu Jiandong also smiled.
"Let's not talk about him yet, what are you going to do, you really won't return to Lincheng?" Xiang Huan actually kept holding back and wanted to ask him this.
"I was able to go back once recently, and I will leave when the rainy season is over, and there are some things at home that I need to deal with."
Hearing him say this, Xiang Huan remembered that when he was in Dawan before, he talked to Lawyer Qu about the Xu family.
After the accident of the Xu family, the people who had the right to speak in the family lost their freedom.
When the family Xu Wei, that is, Xu Jiandong's father, jumped off the building and committed suicide and was rescued from a coma.
The son of the Xu family, Xu Jiandong's eldest brother Xu Xingyang, has been arrested after being taken away by the police.
The mess left behind is large and difficult to clean up.
Xu Jiandong, who has never set foot in the family business, why should he go back to deal with it?
"I can't do anything else, if you need money, you're welcome, tell me." Xiang Huan said, picked up his mobile phone and transferred 50,000 yuan to Xu Jiandong.
Xu Jiandong heard the mobile phone ringing, picked it up and looked at it, but he was not polite to Xiang Huan, but only said thank you.
After eating and drinking, Xiang Huan stood up and prepared to clean up the dishes and chopsticks like an ordinary housewife.
In the years when she and Xu Jiandong got married, she had never done this at home, but she didn't expect to divorce now, but she experienced a homely life.
Xu Jiandong cleaned up with her, and when it was time to wash the dishes, he didn't let her do it, and he did it quickly and skillfully.
"Then I'll go back first, and we'll see you at noon tomorrow." Xiang Huan prepared to go back to the hotel.
Xu Jiandong said that he would sleep here tonight, and went back after sending Xiang Huan to the door of the community.
Xiang Huan stood at the gate of the community, thinking about taking a walk nearby and then going back to the hotel, but when he raised his eyes, he saw Cheng Ye walking out of the hotel.
He was alone, and after coming out, he looked around aimlessly, and only after a while did he meet Xiang Huan.
The two will come together.
Cheng Ye asked where Xiang Huan had gone, and looked at the neighborhood when he asked.
Xiang Huan wanted to hide that Xu Jiandong lived in the community at first, but in the end he told Cheng Ye and also said what she ate at his house.
The rice was made by the second young man of the Xu family.
"He's a man...... It's also quite interesting. After listening to this, Narino smiled meaninglessly at a window with lights on in the community.
At noon the next day, Xu Jiandong arrived at the restaurant where he had made an appointment for dinner on time, and officially met with Chengye for the first time.
Cheng Ye shook hands with him and said hello, saying that he had seen Xu Jiandong in a small hotel in the town some time ago, but he didn't know who he was.
Xu Jiandong glanced at Xiang Huan, who was standing side by side with Cheng Ye, and replied lightly that he was not impressed.
Cheng Ye pulled the corners of his mouth, beckoned Xu Jiandong to sit down, and poured a cup of tea with his hands.
Xiao Wu began to enliven the somewhat unnatural atmosphere of the dinner table, asked Xu Jiandong what he did, and asked him if he liked to drink coffee.
Xu Jiandong said that he worked as a forest lookout in the forest farm.
He said that he used to drink coffee very much in the city, but he rarely drank it after he arrived in the town.
Xiao Wu quickly glanced at the few people present, and said with a smile, then he won't worry, when his wild brother's coffee shop opens, there will be a place to drink.
Cheng Ye stared at Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu shut up, got up and said to go and see how the dishes were doing.
For today's meal, the other two people who came with Cheng Ye didn't come, and as soon as Xiao Wu left, there were only three of them left on the table.
Xu Jiandong lowered his head and took a sip of tea, looking at him without any meaning to speak.
Cheng Ye didn't say anything for the time being, just looked at the second young man of the Xu family who was sitting opposite, and the content in his eyes was a little rich.
"Now that we all know each other, just say whatever you want, and he will have to go back to work in the mountains later." Xiang Huan had no choice but to break the silence and remind Cheng Ye to hurry up.
Listening to her, the two men looked at her almost at the same time.
Xu Jiandong took the initiative to open his mouth this time, "Actually, I don't know much about things in the town, I'm basically in the forest farm and on the mountain here, so I may not be able to help you much." ”
When he said this, he didn't look at Cheng Ye, his eyes stopped at Xiang Huan's side.
Xiang Huan avoided and looked at Cheng Ye beside him.
Narino smiled at the corner of his mouth, "I grew up in this town since I was a child, and I don't need others to help me understand anything." ”
Xiang Huan pursed his lips, not knowing what kind of conversation he would hear next.
