I really never thought that I would meet again, let alone such a sudden encounter.

While driving, Liu Tang was still a little restless and confused, and almost ran a red light. Niu Niu screamed in the back seat, but fortunately she was restrained by the seat belt and did not have an accident.

Liu Tang felt very sorry, afraid that Niuniu would cry like that, but Niuniu just leaned over and crawled over, saying with a bitter face, "Uncle, I'm in pain!"

Hearing this, Liu Tang parked the car on the side of the road, unbuckled his seat belt, turned around and squeezed her hand and asked, "Where does it hurt? Show me!"

"Hey, I was a little bit hurt just now, but it's better now," Niu Niu said with a smile, pointing to the outside of the car and shouting, "Uncle, I want to eat dates!"

Next to it was a row of shops, Liangpin Store, Zhou Hei Ya, and Miss You Zao side by side. Liu Tang took Niu Niu out of the car thinking of Ms. Chen Meimei's order.

Niuniu likes sweets, but she is too young, Liu Wenjing is very strict about eating, and she rarely lets her eat.So as soon as I missed you so much, Niu Niu quickly picked up a basket. When Liu Tang saw it, he had to remind her: "Niu Niu, what did your mother say?"

"Uncle~" Niu Niu looked at Liu Tang with a bitter face, put her hands together by her mouth, "Please!"

Niu Niu inherited the white skin of the Liu family, she was a bit baby fat, and she looked at Liu Tang with big eyes, but Liu Tang finally couldn't help herself, and said to herself, "Okay! But don't eat too much every day!"

"mua~" Niuniu leaned over and kissed Liu Tang on the cheek, "Uncle is the best!"

Ms. Chen Meimei loves spicy food, but Liu Junkang is not very good at spicy food, and Liu Tang is only half-baked, so Liu Tang didn't buy more. He only bought two boxes of duck tongue and duck neck according to his mother's instructions.

Their home is in the community next to the No. [-] Middle School. It used to be the family building of the No. [-] Middle School. Later, after the property rights were bought out and sold separately, there were not many family members of the No. [-] Middle School teaching staff left.

As soon as the car turned around, Liu Tang heard the deafening music.There is an open space outside the community, which looks like a small square. There are always many old men and women who come here to dance. The music is loud and disturbing.

Fortunately, Liu Tang's family was in the community, far away, so they couldn't hear clearly and were not disturbed much.

This is an old community, the infrastructure is not up to date, and the distance between the street lights is a bit far. At night, the community is always dark.

The buildings in the community are not high, just at the height of the sixth floor, so there is no elevator.Liu Tang's house was on the fifth floor, and every time he went up and down the stairs, he felt like he was at war, so he had to reduce the number of times he went out.

Niu Niu's physical strength is better than Liu Tang's, she bounced up and down, and turned around to urge Liu Tang: "Hurry up, uncle!"

The corridor on the fourth and fifth floors was dark, Liu Tang stomped his feet, and the sensor light was not turned on, so Liu Tang turned on the flashlight of his mobile phone.

He stood at the door of his house and rang the doorbell, and soon someone opened the door.

Ms. Chen Meimei usually pays attention to maintenance. She makes facial masks every morning and evening. The dressing table is filled with various skin care products. From time to time, she goes down to dance, dancing tango.Over the years, I have really retained my youth. People in their 50s and [-]s seem to be in their early forties.

When she opened the door, she was wearing pajamas, but her face was still covered with seaweed mud. Niuniu was shocked when she saw it: "Grandma, what's wrong with your face!"

"..." Ms. Chen Meimei was speechless.

Liu Tang laughed unceremoniously, and patted Niuniu on the head: "Your grandma is making a mask, not applying medicine on her face!"

"Oh..." Niu Niu seemed to understand.

Ms. Chen Meimei gave Liu Tang a gouged look, and kept her lips moving to a minimum: "I'll clean you up after I wash my face!"

"Are you back?" Liu Junkang was sitting on the sofa, reading a newspaper while wearing reading glasses. There was still an idol drama on TV, which Ms. Chen Meimei probably wanted to watch.

"Grandpa!" Niuniu hopped over and jumped on Liu Junkang, "I miss you to death!"

"Ouch!" Liu Junkang immediately threw away the newspaper and smiled, "Grandpa misses you too!" He patted Niu Niu's head, "Our Niu Niu is beautiful again!"

Niu Niu is a smug girl, after hearing this, she immediately raised her tail to the sky: "Really!"

"You can tell even if I haven't seen you for ten days?" Liu Tang said bluntly.

"Why can't you tell!" Niuniu glared at Liu Tang, "The last time I saw Liu Weiwei looked different from before!"

Liu Tang laughed: "Do you know why people are different from before?"

"why?"

"You need to use a knife!" Liu Tang said with a smirk, "cut off the face, grind off the bones of the two gills, and the nose..."

Seeing Niuniu in his arms, Liu Junkang opened his eyes wide in fright, and scolded Liu Tang with a smile: "Okay! Don't scare Niuniu all the time! You are still an uncle!"

"Liu Tang!" Chen Meimei's angry voice came, and after a while, someone appeared at the door of the room with a mobile phone in her hand, "Your Aunt Ke just called and said that I lied to her, what are you talking about on a blind date tonight?" Already!"

The atmosphere in the living room suddenly became solemn, the smile on Liu Tang's face gradually disappeared, and his expression was a little cold.

"Do you know how difficult it is for me? I run up and down every day for your affairs. I have been to dating sites, agencies, and blind dates. What is it for? Isn't it for you? Your mother will not harm you. You! Can't you have a good blind date?" Ms. Chen Meimei couldn't help crying while talking.

Liu Junkang walked over to support her, comforted her in a low voice, and said to Liu Tang, "Apologize to your mother!"

"I said I was sick."

Chen Meimei's crying stopped abruptly, and Liu Junkang's expression changed, he opened his mouth and said, "You..." But he couldn't say anything.

"Mom, you didn't tell anyone!" Liu Tang looked up at Chen Meimei.

"I was thinking that it would be better if you guys had feelings for each other in the future," Chen Meimei said in a low voice.

"Mom, I know that you are doing it for my own good, but other people have parents. Do you think that if she knows about my situation in the future, even if she agrees, will her parents agree? Why don't you make it clear now to avoid more pain in the future," Liu Tang's voice was very cold, his pupils were pitch black, and he couldn't see the light.

Seeing him like this, Chen Meimei felt scared and couldn't help but grabbed her husband's hand: "Xiao Tang..."

"Mom, I'm sleepy, I'm going to sleep first," Liu Tang raised his head and smiled with a gentle expression, as if the quarrel just now hadn't happened.

He walked past Liu Junkang without saying a word.

"Grandma..." Niuniu called softly, although she didn't understand what she just said, she was instinctively scared.

Chen Meimei forced a smile: "It's okay, Niuniu should go to bed."

She walked over, took Niu Niu's hand, and took her to wash up.

It was foggy in the morning, and the visibility was very low. Fortunately, it was a weekend, and there were not so many people going out in the morning.

But the small square opened early, and when the stereo was turned on, the most popular and catchy song was played, and the old man with gray hair jumped up to the music.

Next to the square is a row of breakfast shops, welcoming guests.

"Sister Chen! It's so early!"

Chen Meimei was holding steamed buns and deep-fried dough sticks in her hand. When she heard others greet her, she looked around. An old lady came from behind her: "Ah! Meizhen! When did you come back? I haven't seen you for a long time."

The man's surname was Wang, he was wearing a dark blue padded jacket, his hair was gray, his skin was not very white, and the wrinkles around his eyes were already obvious. He looked older than Chen Meimei, but his actual age was two years younger than Ms. Chen Meimei.

Hearing Chen Meimei's words, she laughed so hard that she couldn't see her teeth: "Oh, my daughter asked me to stay for a while, and stay longer, but I am worried at home. Zhiwen called me again, and I will come back gone."

"That's it!" Chen Meimei smiled.

"Let me tell you, Beijing is much more prosperous than Jiangcheng. It is full of high-rise buildings and beautifully built. Although the house price is high, you can always afford it if you have the ability. Like my daughter's house, it is in Chaoyang District, Chaoyang District. Do you know the district? Houses there are very expensive, and a set can cost tens of millions! Many celebrities bought houses there, and this time I saw a star..."

It was less than a day since Wang Meizhen came back, she had said this more than a dozen times, and she might say it dozens of times again, so that others didn't know how to answer it.Of course, she might not need others to answer the conversation, and continued to talk about the benefits of her daughter.

"Actually speaking, Wen Jing in your family is also a good child, but she is too stubborn, girls! You have to be gentle, otherwise men can't bear it! Let me tell you, you have to persuade Wen Jing well at ordinary times. Divorce is not Such a simple thing, this woman is divorced, it is difficult to remarry, and some are 50 or [-] years old, think about it! If your new son-in-law is older than you, can you bear it?"

Wang Meizhen was notorious for her bad words, and few people in the community liked her. Chen Meimei knew it well, so no matter how angry she was, she didn't say anything, it didn't make sense!

"By the way! Is Liu Tang in your family in love? I have a girl here, and the conditions are pretty good," Wang Meizhen suddenly changed the subject and asked about Liu Tang.

Although she doesn't like Wang Meizhen very much, when it comes to her son, Chen Meimei still cares: "Not yet, how is the girl's condition?"

"It's also a local, but it belongs to Zhizhou. You know, Zhizhou has been demolished in the past few years. Their family can get a house and have hundreds of thousands of cash! She is an only child, and these will definitely be hers in the future. ..."

"So good?" Chen Meimei was a little skeptical.

Wang Meizhen said hesitantly: "She...is just a little old."

"How big?"

"The false age is 35, which is actually five years older than your family's Liu Tang," Wang Meizhen said, seeing that Chen Meimei's face was not very good, "I have told others about Liu Tang's situation, and she doesn't mind. It's fine to just live, she was divorced once, that man is a bastard..."

Chen Meimei's face suddenly turned cold: "Did you introduce Xiao Tang to a divorced one?"

"Hey, I can't say that. As far as Liu Tang is concerned, can someone who has never been married agree? It must be that the girl wants to find someone to live with and treat her son well, so I thought of your Liu Tang."

Chen Meimei trembled angrily, pointed at Wang Meizhen and said, "Wang Meizhen, don't bully me too much!"

"What is bullying too much! I'm doing it for your Liu Tang's sake! With his physical condition, it's still a matter of whether he can do it or not! Could it be that you want the old lady to be a widow with your son!" Wang Meizhen never cared if she was justified or not. The reasoning was all three points, and the voice was so loud that it immediately attracted several people to watch.

However, Chen Meimei couldn't stand the humiliation, and left angrily.

She has a bright personality and usually has a good relationship with anyone, but Wang Meizhen touched her bottom line. She couldn't do things like shouting and scolding in the street, but she never said a word to her for more than ten years until Wang Meizhen passed away.

But at this moment, when she returned home, remembering the look in Liu Tang's eyes and the words she said last night, she finally couldn't help crying.
