The woman opposite the door

Su Meng got off work and planned to go to a nearby supermarket to buy some daily necessities. After all, her menstrual period is coming soon, so she has to get ready first.After purchasing, I quietly waited in line for the checkout, and swiped my phone by the way.

Seeing that they were approaching me, an old couple in front suddenly yelled: "Why are you so fussy! Yo, you don't bring money when you go out to buy things. Young people nowadays, really..."

"That's right, I'm wasting everyone's time..." Between singing and chorus, it really fully highlighted the tacit understanding for so many years.

Su Meng put away his mobile phone, adjusted his body and glanced at it. Across the old couple, there was a mother and daughter standing by the cash register. Aren't they the neighbors across the door? !

Yi Qingxuan was a little embarrassed: "I'm so sorry, I forgot my wallet..."

Cashier: "It's okay ma'am, we have other payment methods, WeChat Alipay or..."

"I'll pay."

Su Meng passed the couple, put the shopping basket in his hand on the counter, and smiled at the cashier: "Let's go together!"

"Little girl, why are you still jumping in line? You have no quality!"

Su Meng turned his head to look at them, and said lightly: "In public places, there are many people who are less qualified than me."

"Hey, what are you talking about? This is, it's reasonable to jump in line..."

As he was talking, someone behind him became impatient and yelled, "What are you doing up front? Do you still want to buy it or not?"

Among the "talkative" old couples, the old man saw that everyone's eyes were on them, and he pulled his wife's arm slightly blushing: "Forget it... It's not worth getting angry with this kind of person, it will hurt your body..."

After paying the bill, the two of them came out with big shopping bags. Yi Qingxuan carefully held her daughter's hand with her right hand, bowed her head and said, "Little Routuan, thank you sister for helping us."

"Thank you sister." The little girl in pink raised her head and smiled sweetly at Su Meng, her voice was clear and melodious.

Su Meng's heart melted in an instant: "You're welcome." As he spoke, he handed the lollipop he bought at the cashier just now to her eyes: "Here, you are so good, my sister treats you to candy OK?"

Little Routuan looked up at Yi Qingxuan, who nodded with a chuckle: "Don't forget to thank sister."

The two big and one small walked back slowly, and the supermarket was near home, only two streets away.

Yi Qingxuan thanked her again, scratched her head in embarrassment, and said, "I got off work late today. I found out that the salt was gone when I was cooking after picking up the meatballs from the kindergarten. I hurried to the supermarket. She actually forgot to bring her wallet." At this point, she looked at Su Meng and smiled, "If I hadn't met Miss Su... Oh, I'll send you the money when I get home later."

"Just call me Su Meng."

Su Meng was looking down at Yi Ran's contented child with a lollipop in his mouth. Hearing this, he raised his head and gave Yi Qingxuan a faint smile, waved his hand and said, "It's not much money, don't bother."

"Then how can I do it? I don't get rewarded for no merit, no matter what I say, I can't use your money for nothing."

Maybe it's because in recent years, she often does odd jobs in supermarkets, restaurants and other places with a strong sense of service. Yi Qingxuan has gradually become a habit of opening and closing her mouth.Su Meng was the worst at shirking people, so he smiled calmly and said nothing, as acquiescing.

In a blink of an eye, they had already arrived downstairs, and the three of them were standing waiting for the elevator. Yi Qingxuan glanced down inadvertently, but saw that the top floor was full of all kinds of instant noodles in the bag Su Meng was holding.

"Eating too much instant noodles is not good for your health." Without thinking about it, she suddenly said this.

Su Meng was slightly taken aback, since his parents passed away, it seemed that he hadn't heard such words for many years.Although this is most likely just a simple warning, such as the phrase "smoking is harmful to your health" written on the outer packaging of cigarettes, it also makes my heart tremble slightly.

"It's convenient for a person who is too lazy to cook."

Su Meng replied irrelevantly, and they were all polite words for greetings, you come and go, just don't lose the etiquette.Unexpectedly, as soon as the words finished, Yi Qingxuan replied with a smile: "Why don't you come to my house to eat later, it's all simple food, Miss Su... Oh no, just don't dislike Su Meng."

Yi Qingxuan has a warm and hospitable straightforward personality in her bones. She grew up in an orphanage and helped the director take care of her younger brothers and sisters. Seeing Su Meng's "lonely and helpless" appearance, she instinctively took care of her .In addition, I just got help from others, so a little feedback is even more natural.

However, Su Meng didn't like to get too close to people, so he turned his face away and declined politely: "Don't bother."

Yi Qingxuan only thought she was being polite, and hurriedly waved her hands: "It's not troublesome to add more tableware, no trouble."

While talking, there was a "ding" in my ear, and the elevator arrived.When the three of them went in, Su Meng was thinking about how to continue reasoning, but the hem of the clothes that hung down to his waist was gently torn off, and when he looked down, he bumped into a pair of dark and bright eyes.

"Sister, like my mother, I also hope that my sister can go to my house to eat together. The food my mother cooks is delicious, and my sister must try it."

It's the first time for Yi Ran to see a sister who is prettier than Mommy after growing up so big, but...she hasn't seen Mommy for a long time...

Su Meng's heart began to waver. Although he knew that the child in front of him could not have anything to do with him, he still couldn't help but want to get closer to absorb some nutrients to appease the hope that had gradually melted in his body.

"Sister," Xiao Yiran held the corner of Su Meng's clothes with a small palm, and shook it again: "You go, okay?"

Children's hearts are the most sensitive, and their eyes seem to be more transparent than those of adults. She can feel that her mother wants to invite her sister to be a guest at home, and she can also see that Su Meng is hesitating.

"I have a lot of toys, how about we play together? You treat me to delicious candies, and I will treat you to ice cream when I get home. The ice cream my mother bought is delicious, and I am not willing to eat it all the time. It's hidden in the fridge."

Su Meng was amused: "You are reluctant to eat it yourself, so why are you willing to invite me?"

"Because you are beautiful, and you are a nice person, I like you very much. My mother said that good things should be shared with those I like, so I will share my favorite ice cream with my sister."

Before eating the ice cream, Su Meng was already tired of the sweetness.Just at the moment when the elevator door opened, Yi Qingxuan invited again: "It's just a light meal, it's nothing more troublesome, so let me thank you for your rescue today."

Having already talked about this, it would be too hypocritical to refuse. Su Meng nodded, turned around and followed Yi Qingxuan back home.

The little girl Yi Ran was very happy. He took Su Meng's hand and entered the door. He hopped like a bunny and took out a pair of brand new slippers from the shoe cabinet and put them in front of her. Then he turned around and sat on the low stool in front of the door to take off his own slippers shoe.Su Meng has seen no less than a hundred children in these years, but this is the first time he has seen a sweet, cute, well-behaved and sensible child like her.

Maybe this is the reason why I have such a good impression of Xiao Yiran compared to other children.

After entering the door and exchanging greetings, Yi Qingxuan went into the kitchen to prepare dinner with great peace of mind.Xiao Yiran walked to the coffee table, which was not much shorter than himself, poured a glass of water to Su Meng, then turned around and ran away.

Su Meng was wondering, but after a while, she saw her coming out of the kitchen with a small cardboard box in her hand.

"Here, this is my favorite ice cream, please eat it, sister."

She held the paper tube that was still emitting a slight chill in her two white and tender hands, and tilted her head to look at Su Meng, with a serious and expectant expression on her face, which was extremely cute.

Su Meng took it with one hand, took her little hand and sat down in front of the sofa, and said, "It's not good to have a cold drink before meals. Let's put it here first. Let's eat it after dinner, shall we?"

The little girl blinked her eyes when she heard the words, as if she felt that Su Meng's words made sense, she nodded emphatically.But I looked down at the ice cream that seemed to be less air-conditioned, and thought it was wrong. After thinking about it, I asked tentatively: "If my sister still doesn't eat it, let me put it back in the refrigerator for you, otherwise it should melt in a while." gone."

After finishing speaking, before Su Meng could speak, she hastily added: "I didn't regret that I didn't want you to eat it. Really, I'll bring it back for you after dinner."

Su Meng was amused by her serious look: "Okay, sister believes in you, thank you."

"You're welcome."

After a lot of work, Xiao Yiran moved the ice cream back to the refrigerator and put it in the refrigerator. When she came back, she took out a big box of building blocks from her bedroom, spread it out on the floor, and turned to invite Su Meng: "Sister, let's build blocks together." .”

Su Meng readily agreed, and squatted down to help her pass the "parts".Seeing the little girl spelling out a decent little house in twos and threes, while feeling surprised in her heart, she couldn't help asking softly: "Xiao Yiran, how old are you?"

"Five years old." The little girl stopped and turned to look at her: "I have been promoted to the top class of kindergarten this year."

Su Meng was a little disappointed: five years old... really not...
