Chapter 8: Paying You Off
"Are you really not coming to accompany me......" The smile on Tan Jingming's face collapsed, and he lowered his head like a frosted eggplant and muttered, "But since you were a child, you have been better at reading and writing than me, if you go to school, your grades will definitely be better than mine." ”
"Do the grades are good for me...... It doesn't matter, I am the daughter-in-law of the Tan family, and it should be my duty to take care of the housework. Xu Sirou pulled the corners of her mouth, turned her face to the window, gritted her teeth as if she was fated, and then changed the topic again, "Do you see if this dress is good, let's choose the material and make one for you in a while?" ”
*
Tan Jingming rarely went home, the old lady treasured this daughter on weekdays, and she didn't see her for days, and the mother and daughter were very intimate. Xu Sirou was also inconvenient to be present, so she went to the restaurant to arrange dinner.
"Mandarin fish is my mother's favorite food, so keep it closer to the main seat. Cream pudding to Jing Ming. The soup is served first, cooled and then served. That cold salad mycelium is what Brother Yu likes......"
"What about you?"
A low voice came from behind her, Xu Sirou was taken aback, and when she turned around, it was Tan Jingyun. He had probably just gotten off work, and his blazer was in his hand, and he put it on the back of his chair because he wanted to talk to her.
The soft wool was thin and smooth, Xu Sirou stared at the coat and didn't raise her eyes: "I'm not a picky eater." ”
Tan Jingyun didn't take it seriously, but just looked around: "Didn't you say that I went to Fresh Air Company with Jingming, and I didn't buy anything?" ”
"I've been there, but I didn't like anything I liked, so I didn't buy it."
"Where's Jingming?"
She ...... I didn't pay attention. ”
My little sister, clothes, shoes and socks, jewelry, perfume...... As long as something new comes out, she must buy it happily. Xu Sirou didn't pay attention, she just didn't want to say it.
Tan Jingyun snorted, and then swept her up and down: "Tomorrow you will also go buy a few new ones." She was about to refuse, only to hear his leisurely voice continue, "When I pay you that dress." ”
Just looking at the afterglow of him sitting down and handing her his head half-high, Xu Sirou's face couldn't help but burn.
She quickly avoided him: "I'll go to the kitchen and look at the bird's nest stewed for my mother." ”
Before Tan Jingyun could make any moves, Xu Sirou had already gently and skillfully turned the round dining table and flashed into the kitchen.
From his point of view, only her back could be seen. She has changed into homely clothes, the light azure shirt is very simple, and the waist and abdomen are tied with an apron, and the soft waist is stretched out, which is very like a little daughter-in-law.
Tan Jingyun looked at it silently, then turned his gaze away to look out the window. brought the small stool in front of the window, and found that Xu Sirou's bag was still on the stool.
She has never been such a careless person, she is very careful in her work, she never takes it indiscriminately, it must be Jingming who rummaged in her bag to find something, and threw it here.
Tan Jingyun took the leather bag in the palm of his hand.
The woman's bag is so small, less than the size of his palm, the sheepskin is soft and glutinous, and it seems to have a temperature in the palm of his hand. Thinking that he had just asked Xu Sirou to buy clothes, Tan Jingyun subconsciously took out his wallet and wanted to add some money to the lambskin handbag.
The brass buckle snapped open.
A piece of paper fluttered to the ground.
It's like a flyer.
Tan Jingyun leaned over and picked it up, the gap between the falling pages had already dispersed, and he saw that the words "Zhenhua School" were clearly printed on it. With a flick of your hand, the paper is fully unfolded.
But he didn't see the expected admissions brochure - his eyes were fixed on the wrinkles of the paper. It was very small, but it still stained a little ink between rubbing, and it was round, as if someone was staring into his eyes.
From this, he had to pay attention to the sentence:
"Every other thing in the world is called women's morality, pushing its meaning, covering women as men's vassals, and its way of education is only for the convenience of men, and I don't know that in a lifetime, husbands and wives should do their own thing, and it doesn't matter whether men are virtuous or virtuous."
He was stunned for a second, and raised his eyes to look at Xu Sirou.
She was coming out of the kitchen with a plate of dishes: "Brother Yu......"
