"I know that girl."
The balcony was a little cold, so the father and son returned to the house. Xu Qing was still thinking about the girl that Qin Hao brought along.
"How do you know her?"
"She's the one that appeared in the newspaper."
Xu Qing sat back down and snatched half of the orange from Jiang He's hand. He squinted his eyes in jealousy. "With a big braid, with that … there's a girl in the village called Xiaofang ~"
He even started singing. "Just like that. If I remember correctly, her name is something like Li. This is a great favor. I'll repay you with my body … Sigh!"
When he said that, Jiang He secretly pinched his leg. Xu Qing moved his butt away from her.
He didn't know who was the one who insisted on repaying with her body. Now that she had repaid him, she was being unreasonable.
At that time, she was straightforward. She might even have a child by now … Putting aside her identity, at least she would have crawled into bed shamelessly.
Xu Qing rubbed his leg and glanced at Jiang He. Jiang He looked down and focused on peeling an orange.
"You still have the newspaper, right? At that time, the three of us were walking on the road and were about to surf the internet. Prince and I, the rich second generation, you guys have met. We were still talking when Haozi suddenly yelled and rushed over. Before I could react, Haozi clutched his stomach and passed out … "
"What happened?" Zhou Suzhi frowned when she heard what he said.
"I couldn't continue. It was really dangerous at that time. That person stabbed Haozi with a knife. I was still in a daze. When I saw him getting stabbed, I panicked and went over to slap him … You don't know, the Tiger Fool Fist that I practice …"
"Stop bragging. I know you were in the newspaper."
Xu Wenbin was getting impatient. This guy was getting cocky after catching a thief.
He didn't see the girl that was saved fall for him.
Zhou Suzhi didn't know the situation at that time. Now that she heard what Xu Qing said, it was quite amazing.
"What if he stabbed you with a knife?"
"He has to be able to hit me. I practice martial arts every day. I can dodge so far with a big jump …"
"Dance for me." Zhou Suzhi looked at him.
"This isn't a monkey show. How can you just jump like that?" Xu Qing shook his head.
"Bragging."
"… Does she know if I can jump very far?" Xu Qing tugged at Jiang He, indicating for her to answer.
"Did he mention that he was beaten up by monkeys when he went on a trip in the past … Boohoo —"
"Why did you cover my mouth? What tour? What monkey? "
Zhou Suzhi didn't want to watch the big jump anymore. She had never heard of this monkey before.
"…"
Xu Qing didn't want to talk to them anymore.
He took out his phone and started chatting with Qin Hao. He had brought the girl home just like that. He was pretty good.
[I just saw you driving a girl back? "
After a while, Qin Hao replied, [How can you see everything?! "
[He just happened to be on the balcony. Is he meeting his parents? "
[It's nothing. Xiongba gave birth to a litter of cubs. I brought her over to pick one.]
[Amazing. I can't think of a reason like that. Should I buy a luminous watch next time?]
[Filthy. Get lost.]
At the side, Zhou Suzhi laughed heartily. Xu Qing looked up, and even Xu Wenbin was amused.
Boring …
He got up and looked at the balcony. There was indeed Qin Hao and the girl on the opposite balcony. The two of them had silly smiles on their faces.
He sent a message over. Qin Hao took out his phone with a silly smile and lowered his head. Then, he looked up.
"Hello, friends over there!" Xu Qing waved at them.
"There's something wrong with that guy. Let's ignore him." Qin Hao pulled the girl back into the house and gave him the middle finger.
He had wanted to investigate Xu Qing's girlfriend. Now, he had a girlfriend …
Xu Qing was a bad guy. He had to be careful.
Xu Qing, who had been snubbed, did not freeze on the balcony. That would make him look like a fool.
Actually, he just wanted to show off and urge Qin Hao to hurry up.
Although their child marriage was ruined, there was still the next generation …
He wanted to see if their children could have a boy and a girl … That had to be discussed. The age difference couldn't be too big.
Back in the house, the topic had changed. Zhou Suzhi was still happy. It was as if Jiang He was happy to dig up dark history. Old Madam seemed to like it.
When they went out to gossip with the neighbors, they would talk about what their children had done. Those who had good jobs would brag about their jobs. Those who had good girlfriends would brag about their girlfriends … When they got home, it would be the opposite. They would point out what was not good. If they didn't have a girlfriend, they would urge them. If they didn't have a good job, they would think of a way to change it. Digging up dark history was fun.
The two of them were happy while the other watched from the sidelines. Only Xu Qing's world of being injured was completed.
"You can gossip about other people's families. For example, Qin Hao's new girlfriend. What do you think? I think they are a good match. "
"I've never seen her before."
"You want to visit her?"
"Are you crazy?"
"…"
Xu Qing spread his hands. Fortunately, the topic wasn't about him crying because of something.
"Let's continue. He was timid at that time, but he liked to watch it. Oh, he insisted on dragging Little Haozi with him. After watching it, he didn't dare to take a shower at night. When he went in, he would sing …"
The world with only Xu Qing injured was completed once again.
It was boring to stay in the living room. Xu Qing looked around. He took an orange and went into the study while eating it. He left the living room to the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, as well as Xu Wenbin, who was listening.
In the afternoon, he stayed in Xu Wenbin's study to see if there were any good books. He was thinking about borrowing them to read, such as unofficial history.
Xu Wenbin's study was not big. After so many years, other than the original wuxia books that were torn by Zhou Suzhi, the rest were well kept. Over the years, the bookshelves were full, and there was a large pile on the table.
Sitting in front of the desk, there was a small pile of relatively new newspapers on his right. The box behind him was filled with older newspapers. They were more memorable from different eras. He randomly picked one out and looked at it. Successful Olympic bid, millennium …
It was very old.
Instead of looking for unofficial history, Xu Qing looked at the old newspapers.
Jiang He finished chatting outside and came in to accompany Xu Qing.
Jiang He took a newspaper and sat down. After a while, he looked at him and leaned over. He always wanted to get close to this person.
I like him so much …
"Your mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship is a little abnormal."
"Really?"
"On TV, it's all about scheming and deception. Either the evil daughter-in-law bullies the mother-in-law, or the evil mother-in-law bullies the daughter-in-law …"
"It's all fake on TV." Jiang He reminded him expressionlessly.
"It's not that bad in real life, but it's still a little … What about you guys back then?" Xu Qing asked curiously.
"What do you mean back then?"
"In ancient times, did mothers-in-law and daughter-in-law work together under the sun with a sieve?"
Xu Qing did not know where this image came from. Whenever he thought of mothers-in-law and daughter-in-law in ancient times, it would naturally appear in his mind.
Jiang He looked at him as if he was looking at an idiot. "I didn't have a mother-in-law back then. How would I know?"
"You might not have eaten pork before, but you've seen a pig run …"
"Shut up. If they hear this later, they will either suspect that you're sick or know that I'm from ancient times." Jiang He said as he put down the newspaper and looked around the study. He took out a book from the bookshelf to read.
Xu Qing shook his head and did not say anything. He continued to read the newspaper quietly.
It was indeed different for him to talk about ancient times in front of the old couple and for them to hear it themselves.
If one day he accidentally heard the old couple talking about how his mother was an ancient person, he would probably also let his imagination run wild. Then … Xu Qing put himself in their shoes and thought about it for a moment, then immediately threw those messy thoughts away.
They were going to have dinner together in the evening. The two of them did not leave in the afternoon, so he could only find something to do to kill time.
Before he knew it, it was already past four o 'clock. He stretched himself and put the antique newspaper back to its original place.
Jiang He sat beside him and happened to close the book. He touched the cover and sighed.
"The people in the future are fortunate to live in a peaceful world and enjoy the happiness of having nothing to do. Those who do not cultivate themselves and blindly waste it, should be alarmed when reading this. "
Xu Qing looked at the "Ten Diaries of Yangzhou" in her hand and thought for a moment. He said, "Compared with this, your world can be considered peaceful."
"My world has always been prosperous." Jiang He muttered and sat up from the chair. He looked at the books in front of the bookshelf for a moment and put them back to their original places.
She looked at the time and found it was already four o 'clock. She pressed Xu Qing back into the chair and prepared to go out.
"Stay here for a while before you go out."
"Is it necessary?"
Xu Qing did not expect the little old lady to care so much now.
"Don't talk."
"We are married. We are husband and wife."
"Not yet. We just got our marriage certificate."
Jiang He pulled the corner of his clothes and opened the door to go out.
Xu Qing, who was left alone in the study, looked around and got up to take out the book that Jiang He had stuffed into the bookshelf.
"Ten Days of Yangzhou …"
It was more than once.
He suddenly wanted to take Jiang He to see the military parade.
Living in this era, he naturally needed to understand everything about this era, the joy of today and the sorrow of the past. Only in this way could he be considered a real modern person.
…
"When did he become so interested in history?"
Seeing Jiang He come out alone, Zhou Suzhi asked casually.
"Last … year." Jiang He thought for a moment and added, "Or the year before."
It was already February of the new year, but the Spring Festival had not passed yet. She did not know whether it was last year or the year before.
"After I met you?" Xu Wenbin tilted his head and looked over.
"Yes."
"…"
Xu Wenbin suddenly thought of the pair of delicate straw sandals in Xu Qing's hands. He looked at Jiang He's feet and saw the fluffy white thermal cotton shoes.
He touched his forehead with his finger and felt ridiculous about his thoughts just now.
He had been led astray by that fellow Xu Qing, who was always nagging.
Ancient people playing games with dried sweet potatoes in their mouths?
Ridiculous.
When Xu Qing came out, only Xu Wenbin was watching TV in the living room.
"Where are they?"
"They went to buy vegetables."
"That's great. My wife and your wife went to buy vegetables together. Dad, do you feel happy?"
Xu Wenbin glanced at him and was too lazy to reply.
"A peaceful world …"
Xu Qing leaned on the sofa and turned his head to look around. Tables and chairs, coffee table, TV sofa, chandelier ceiling.
"This is great."
"What's wrong with you?" Xu Wenbin finally spoke. This kid did not seem right.
"I just feel very happy."
"… If you're really free, go downstairs and see if they're back yet. Help carry them."
Xu Qing did not speak and looked at the ceiling in a daze.
Not only did he affect Jiang He, but Jiang He had also been affecting him.
Everything that was supposed to be right now seemed to have the kind of feeling that Jiang He said, that it was a little sinful to enjoy it.
He taught the ancient people how to live, and the ancient people taught him to cherish.
It was probably like this …
Xu Qing thought that everything now seemed to be right, but in fact, it was not easy to get.
Therefore, he had to cherish it even more.
Xu Wenbin saw Xu Qing jump up from the sofa and was surprised. Then, he saw him put on his coat and went downstairs to wait for the two to come back.
"It's getting more and more abnormal."
Xu Wenbin muttered. He held the cup and took a sip of tea, then continued to watch TV.
There was only one person left in the house. It was empty. It was better when there were four people.
Zhou Suzhi and Jiang He went to buy vegetables together. When they came back, they saw Xu Qing walking over with small steps.
"Help her. Can't you see that she has so much in her hands?" Zhou Suzhi pouted and chased away Xu Qing who ran over.
"If I say that she is stronger than me, would you believe me?"
"Nonsense. You even practice Tiger Fist."
"It's called Tiger Fool Fist. Why can't you remember the name like my dad?"
Xu Qing took most of the vegetables in Jiang He's hands and the other half in Zhou Suzhi's hands. With his hands full, the three of them walked into the corridor together.
When Qin Hao came out, he only saw the backs of the three of them. He turned around and greeted them. He wanted to send Yu Li back with the electric bike, but he changed his mind when he put his hand on the handle.
"I don't want to ride. Let's go get a taxi."
"Ah? I can go back by myself. "Yu Li suggested with the puppy in her arms.
"I'll give you a ride. I have nothing to do anyway. I'm off work today."
"Oh … it's almost the end of the year. Are you going to be on duty during the Spring Festival?"
"You guessed right." Qin Hao smiled innocently. "Just me … cough!"
He almost said that he was not alone anymore. They had confirmed their relationship.
"Just you?" Yu Li was surprised. "Did they bully you?"
"No, no. There were a few of them. One is not enough."
"Oh … it's tough."
"Well, someone has to work hard."
Qin Hao shrunk his neck and didn't know where to put his hands. Yu Li was holding the puppy. He put his hands in his pocket and walked beside Yu Li. They walked out of the neighborhood against the cold wind.
"Was the person on the balcony … was he …"
"Yes, that's him. He practiced some boxing. It looked useful. If it wasn't for him that day, I might have been killed."
"He practiced martial arts and let you rush in front."
Yu Li whispered.
Qin Hao scratched his head and grinned. "He reacted slowly. If it wasn't for me that day, he would have taken two steps forward and found you. He would have … Oh, no, he would have quietly touched a brick. Anyway, he wouldn't have pretended not to see it. We grew up together."
He talked casually as he walked. They walked out of the neighborhood and stood by the roadside, waiting for a taxi.
Qin Hao found that he was not boring. He was regarded as a taciturn gourd in the past because he hadn't met someone he liked.
He felt like he wanted to tell this brat everything he had to say to her.
They took a taxi to Yu Li's place. Night had fallen.
The lights were on.
"Do you want to go upstairs?" Yu Li asked as she got out of the car with the puppy in her arms.
Qin Hao was touching his phone. It vibrated. He heard her words and said, "No, no, it's so late …"
His father said, "I didn't ask you to stay for dinner. Eat outside."
"Uh …"
He paused and stared at Yu Li.
If Qing Zi was here, what would he do …
If Qing Zi was here …
If …
Qin Hao frantically put himself in Xu Qing's shoes.
A second later, Qin Hao scratched his head and said tentatively, "You haven't eaten yet. Why don't you settle it down first and then … eat together …"
"Well, I'll settle it down first." Yu Li lowered her head.
The puppy was black and snuggled in her arms.
