In the evening, Xia Tong just unfolded the paper shop. There was a knock outside the door. She put on her shoes and went to open the door. Outside the door was Qin muchI. He spread his hands without expression and said, "neighbor, I don't have any salt at home. Can I borrow some salt for me?"
“……。” Xia Tong turned around and handed him the bag of salt he had just bought yesterday: "take it."
Not long after closing the door, there was another knock. Xia Tong held his arms and waited for his words.
"Neighbor, I don't have any peppers at home. Can I borrow some more peppers?"
Xia Tong gritted her teeth, turned around and pushed a bag of peppers onto him, then closed the door.
Before long, the door was knocked again: "neighbor, my pot is burnt out, can I borrow a pot to use?"
Xia Tong's face was stiff, and he was on the verge of collapse, but he said with a smile, "OK."
Then he went into the kitchen, pushed the big black pot on him and shut the door with a bang. After three things, she told herself that if he dared to knock a fourth time, she would not be blamed for her impoliteness.
Unexpectedly, after less than ten minutes of silence, the door of the house was knocked again. Xia Tong threw away his pen and angrily went to open the door: "Qin Mucai, are you finished? This time, no matter you're out of oil, vegetables, rice, pot or kitchen I don't care! "
Who knows a door, did not see people, Xia Tong is strange, but saw a small voice from below: "Mommy!"
"Er..." Xia Tong lowered her head, but saw her daughter wearing a pink skirt, looking up at herself with a smile. Xia Tong heart a joy, busy will she hold up: "darling, how did you come?"
"Daddy cooked the hot pot. Let me ask mommy to eat it together." She answered very seriously.
Hot pot? Xia Tong frowned. Can Qin Muzi eat that kind of food?
"Let's go, let's go, Mommy, let's eat together!" Xiao Guai twists and turns in Xia Tong's arms, coquettishly says.
Xia Tong thought about it, put her down and said, "darling, you wait first..." She went back to the room, cleaned up the things, and turned off the light. Then she took a good hand and went into the next room.
This is Xia Tong's first visit to Qin Mucai's new home. I can see that the apartment is as old as her one. But the furniture is newly bought, with black and white as the main color. It has Qin muchI's consistent style, simple but cool.
Not a big living room table, placed with a steaming hot pot. Qin Muzi is wearing a black shirt, which is very elegant as a noble childe. However, she has a Pink Hello Kitty apron on the outside of the shirt, which is not harmonious.
Xia Tong lowers her head and laughs. You don't have to guess. It must be her baby daughter's masterpiece.
"Daddy..." As soon as Xia Guai entered the room, she rushed to Qin Mucai's leg and said, "Mommy is coming."
He put down the spoon with soup in his hand, looked at Xia Tong, and explained: "just now I said I wanted to eat hot pot, so I asked Nie Sheng to send her here. Then when she comes, she quarrels with you to eat together. "
Xia Tong nodded, intending to help, but when she saw the bottom of the pot full of spicy oil, she couldn't help asking, "is it OK for you to eat this?"
Before he could answer, Xia guaguai cut in and said, "no problem! Mommy, daddy loves eating chili. You are not at home these days. He orders sister Ranran to cook spicy food every day It's delicious. "
"Is it?" Xia Tong looks at him suspiciously.
He coughed a little. "There's food in the kitchen. I'll get it."
"Go ahead." Xia Tong saw that there were washed mushrooms on the table. He just wanted to peel them and put them into the pot. Inadvertently, when he turned around, a board of things fell from his pocket. She bent down to pick it up, is a plate of half taken medicine, but also - stomach medicine?
Xia Tong look has a moment of bleary, see he came out, busy and put the medicine into the pocket.
He bowed his head and put the prepared dishes into the pot. Spicy soup with boiling hot bubbles, a burst of fragrance, if usually Xia Tong must have a big appetite, but today I feel a little tasteless.
Even so, the atmosphere of the whole hot pot is not bad.
He can eat spicy food much better than before. In the past, as long as a little spicy food appeared on the table, he would definitely frown and get angry, and would not touch it.
Now not only eat, but also eat a lot. It seems that there is no unwilling appearance. Although there is still no expression on the face, the corners of the mouth have been smiling, and the mood is still pleasant.
However, it just looks.
After eating hot pot, Xia Tong sat on the sofa watching TV with her. Qin Mu Chi seemed to be restless and pale. Although he covered up very well, Xia Tong still noticed that something was wrong with him.
See him into the kitchen, Xia Tong also stood up, followed in, closed the door.
He looked back and was surprised to see her.
"Are you looking for this?" Xia Tong spread out his hand and handed the plate stomach medicine to him: "if it's very uncomfortable, take a little."He looked down at the medicine in her hand and said for a while, "no need."
"You don't have to pretend." Xia Tong tone helpless: "since can't eat spicy even, there's no need to toss his stomach..."
He didn't say a word, just opened the kitchen door. Xia Tong thought about it and finally said, "you'd better go..."
He held his pace.
"Qin muchI, we are not from the same world at all. Although you live here these days, you are not used to this kind of life at all. Without a servant, I have to endure the situation that the water heater breaks down in the middle of the bath, the electricity stops suddenly in the middle of the cooking, and all kinds of messy life That's not what you should worry about. "
"But there's you in this life." He looked back and finally spoke.
Xia Tong was stunned.
"Don't you always want a simple, normal lifestyle? Before I did not understand, has been selfish to their own way of life to ask you, watching you catch up with my pace. Now I want to turn around to catch up with you, learn little by little, adapt little by little, maybe the speed will be a little slow. But one day, I will be able to enter your life... "
"You don't need to..." Xia Tong said.
He suddenly turned around, closed the door and hugged her. When she was caught off guard, she lowered her head and pressed her lips.
"Well." Xia Tong was startled by him. Before he had time to react, his hand had been tightly around her waist, and he could not help sticking her to his warm acquaintance.
For a long time, he just let go of her, Xia Tong's face flushed step back, dazed.
"I think it's good to look at you all the time. Although you can't treat me as wholeheartedly as before. But it doesn't matter. I can try to treat you wholeheartedly He said.
