Ji Hebei, a hundred meters away, had already discovered Cong Qi.

Seeing her cover her ears and steal the bell, a dark light flashed in her deep eyes, and the shallow smile on her face gradually deepened.

He raised his feet and walked in the direction of Cong Qi.

"Hey, what a coincidence."

Ji and North stopped in front of Cong Qi.

Without waiting for Cong Qi to respond, he looked down at the bicycle and naturally asked, "Is the car broken?" ”

"What?"

Cong Qi didn't react at first.

Follow the and north gaze and stare at the chain for a while. Suddenly, his cheeks were bloodshot and red.

It's over, how do you explain that the car is not broken, but she is stupid to park here for so long? Doesn't this mean that I saw him a long time ago, and then didn't dare to go over?

Looks like he's very cowardly.

and Kita almost burst out laughing.

All the girl's thoughts were written on her face, so that people could see them clearly at a glance.

Afraid that she would be annoyed and angry, Ji Hebei forcibly held back, pretending not to figure out the situation: "If it's broken, I'll help you take a look?" ”

"No, you don't."

Cong Qi refused loudly, and realized that she had reacted too much, so she continued to talk nonsense in a soft voice: "The car is not broken, I just remembered one thing and stopped to think about it." ”

"That's right."

Ji and Bei fists against their lips, blocking the smile that was about to overflow: "Did you just get off work?" ”

Cong Qi nodded carelessly: "Well, why are you here?" ”

"Help a friend send a few reference books to his sister."

"Oh~~"

It turned out to be a textbook.

Cong Qi didn't know what to talk to Ji and Bei, but listening to his clear voice, she didn't want to say goodbye. I said that it would be nice if I could record his voice on tape, and listen to it whenever I wanted.

"If it's okay, I-"

"I'll go back first, goodbye."

Both spoke at the same time.

Cong Qi was stunned, looking at Ji and Bei, and Ji and North were also looking at her.

Silence for a few seconds.

Cong Qi spoke again: "Okay, goodbye." ”

After speaking, they found that Ji and Bei said the same thing at the same time, and the two were stunned again. The frequent "collisions" made her feel like dreaming back to the scene of the lotus pond, and the atmosphere began to become strange again, and she felt that the air suddenly became viscous.

This time, Cong Qi didn't dare to look directly into Ji Hebei's eyes.

He laughed dryly, kicked the wheels and slipped fast.

"Tsk, coward." Ji Hebei looked at the slender back of the gate of the community, and sighed softly.

Cong Coward Qi returned home, and his heart was still pounding.

She put the braised pork and cold noodles on the table, and the first thing she did was to go to the bathroom to wash her face.

waited for the temperature on his face to cool down, and then ran to the next door to find Xu Huiying as if nothing happened: "Mom, I bought braised pork and cold noodles, what about Dad?" ”

Hui Ying is looking at the new expansion materials.

Wen Yan turned around and said, "Forgot? This semester, your father's class is in the third year of high school, and there are classes three nights a week. ”

"Qiqi, you pick two cucumbers and cut them into shreds, and keep your father's share."

"Oh, got it."

Cong Qi ran to the yard to pick cucumbers.

Their family grows local cucumbers, not long blue-green varieties, but short, fat with a slightly white belt.

This cucumber tends to be softer and more delicate than green cucumber, and is also more suitable for cold salads and shabu-shabu. Of course, the more important thing is to feed well.

Cong Qi didn't peel the cucumber, picked up the kitchen knife and clicked it a few times, and the two cucumbers turned into cucumber shreds with the same thickness and length.

After cutting the cucumber, Cong Qi touched a few Chaotian peppers and garlic cloves and chopped them.

Their family has a strong taste, and they are very spicy. Like soup noodles and cold noodles, in addition to the oil and spicy seeds, they will add extra peppers.

Cooking on weekdays, in addition to taking the light route for soup, you have to put two Chaotian peppers to enhance the flavor of frying and stir-frying. The ingredients should be cut, and the ingredients should be chopped.

Cong Qi was quick with his hands and feet, brought all the side dishes and seasonings to the table and set them up, and then poured out the braised pork and put it on the plate.

"Mom, it's time to eat."

Cong Qi turned on the TV, and "Heroes Have No Regrets" was being broadcast on it.

"Mom, there's your favorite Pu Cunxin."

At this time, Pu Cunxin was a very popular actor, and he was simply killed by all ages.

Xu Huiying likes him very much.

The big color TV at home was bought back after Pu Cunxin's other drama hit at the beginning of the year, when she fought father and daughter, and won it. - Haishi Venus brand, 25 inches cost 2800, is the most expensive household appliance of the Cong family.

No, as soon as she heard Pu Cunxin's voice on TV, Xu Huiying's action of packing up the materials unconsciously accelerated.

"Is this a new drama, it didn't seem to be this yesterday."

When Xu Huiying was mixing noodles, her eyes didn't take off the TV. Cong Qi bit the noodles and shook his head: "I don't know." ”

The mother and daughter watched the drama while eating.

Suddenly.

"Bang bang bang-"

There was a knock on the door.

Without Xu Huiying's eyes, Cong Qi hurriedly put down his chopsticks and went over to open the door.

"Mom, Aunt Yuzhen called you to answer the phone."

Like color TV,Landline is also a high-consumption product,The initial installation fee alone costs four or five thousand。

The Cong family did not install telephones, and only Feng Yuzhen's house next door and Teacher Ge's house on the fourth floor installed telephones in the entire Dexin Garden.

Cong Qi was curious about who called, so Xu Huiying went over to answer the phone, and she followed with a bowl of fart.

Xu Huiying picked up the phone and hung up without saying a word, her face was very ugly.

"Mom, who's that?"

Xu Huiying: "Your grandmother." ”

"And what did they say?"

Xu Huiying's eyes condensed, and she sneered: "Your aunt's youngest daughter was not admitted to high school, and she wants to stuff people into the fourth middle school." ”

"There are so many good high schools in Yushi, why do you want to go to Rongcheng near and far, and don't you have to take care of it?"

Cong Qi complained.

Xu Huiying was angry for a while, and she didn't bother to get angry.

What kind of people her mother, Lao Tzu, brothers and sisters, she saw through when she was forced to go to the countryside more than 20 years ago.

"Whatever, the phone hung up quickly, thinking that I would have to do it without giving me a chance to refuse, and someone would take it?"

Xu Huirong, she thought it was quite beautiful. We didn't see anyone to help when we were in trouble, you had a high fever for two days at that time, and almost everyone was gone, your father and I begged them so much, and wanted to borrow a few dozen yuan to send you to the hospital, what did they do? They turned us away one by one, and they didn't even bother to find a reason, did they have any patience? ”

"I thought that everyone would be so far away in this life, to be a relative who is not familiar with each other, as long as the face is passable, I have to rush to let people expose their skins, I bah!"

Speaking of the fact that Cong Qi almost died when he was a child, Xu Huiying's eyes were moist, and she still can't let go.

Cong Qi hugged his mother distressedly.

Nuo Sheng comforted: "Mom, don't you think I'm doing well now?" Don't cry, let's not cry. ”

"It is said that if you don't die in a catastrophe, you will have a blessing, then I have a lot of blessings, all of them are behind, you are right~~~~"

Since Cong Qi can remember, he can count the number of times he has seen a foreign family on one hand.

The first time I saw them, they were at the beginning of '77.

At that time, there was no news of the college entrance examination, and I was only more than three years old at that time, and it seemed that I was sick and had no money at home.

As a result, I didn't ask for a dime.

They finally opened a letter of introduction, and when they found their grandfather's house, they were driven out by their grandmother with the water spilled by their married daughter, and they didn't even save a meal. I heard my mother say that it was all thanks to my own life, and I slowly got better.

The second time was in seven or eight years, when my grandparents saw that my parents were in the newspaper and took the initiative to find the school to ease the relationship.

Due to the atmosphere of public opinion at that time, it was reconciled on the surface.

……

Two years ago, my grandfather fell and suffered a cerebral hemorrhage, and the family returned to Chongqing City for funeral. At that time, it was very unpleasant for funeral expenses and miscellaneous pension expenses, and the aunt scolded her parents for being unfilial.

They never felt like they were at fault.

I've never been sorry to let my fifteen-year-old sister go to the countryside instead of my eighteen-year-old sister.

When my mother and father got married, they wrote a letter to the Xu family, and no one in the Xu family was willing to give a blessing, and in the letter, they reprimanded my mother for being willing to degenerate, and scolded her for being in a hurry to sleep with a man before she reached the age of marriage.

Those words, which are not like those written by their own sisters, are extremely vicious.

And all of this was all known from Cong Qichu when he accidentally turned to the old letter and learned from the letter.

She really didn't know why her aunt was so thick-skinned, and she was so embarrassed to send her daughter to Rongcheng, and she thought it was time to force her mother to go to the countryside.

"Mom, I'll tell you something~~~~"

Cong Qi hugged Xu Huiying, gently rubbed her face with her cheek, and coquettishly: "I'm embarrassed today." ”
