Seven's secret

When Murong Qing returned to Pei's house at night, her mind was still dizzy.There was 5 yuan in cash missing in his pocket, and there was an extra house sale agreement signed by both parties.In one afternoon, like two lunatics, he and Yutou couldn't wait to invite the owner out, signed the agreement, paid the deposit, and made an appointment to go through the relevant procedures after the real estate transaction center went to work in a few days—— The homeowner has been busy contacting the sale of the house for the past two years. These things have been prepared early in the morning, and all the procedures have been cleared up.

After signing the agreement, Murong Qing and Yutou held the thin sheets of paper and laughed for a long time, as if a yard with a garden, a pond, a vegetable garden, and many fat mice had appeared before them .

When Yutou had enough fun, he ran to show off to his brothers, Murong Qing sat alone at home and looked at the thin booklet, and felt mixed feelings.

In this strange and desolate city, will he finally have his own real place to stay?

When Pei Rong looked out from the window of the living room for the nth time, he finally saw the Wrangler driving towards this side along the boulevard of the community.The car stopped at the gate of the courtyard, Murong got out of the car lightly, opened the gate with the key given to him by Mr. Pei, drove the car into the yard, glanced towards the window when the door was closed, and paused for a moment.

Pei Rong knew that he saw himself.

Pei Rong calmly glanced at the living room behind him. Mr. Pei and Grandpa Liu were sitting on the sofa chatting, and Grandpa Liu's granddaughter, who was said to have just started working this year, was sitting on the single sofa next to him, peeking at the orange while peeling the oranges. on his side.

Pei Rong has seen this girl before, after all, the relationship between Grandpa Liu and his grandfather is there.Sometimes grandpa is eating at other people's houses, and he has to go to pick them up.However, I have never felt such a weird feeling when we met before.Pei Rong glanced at the two old men who were chatting, and found that they seemed to be paying more attention to themselves and the girl.When he said a word to her, Grandpa Liu looked at Mr. Pei with a smile.She peeled an orange for Pei Rong, and Mr. Pei laughed happily at Grandpa Liu.

These two full-fledged old guys who have nothing to do...

If it wasn't for the fact that his body was not suitable for driving, he really wanted to hide like Murong Qing.It's so embarrassing to have the red line messed up by the elders during the New Year's Eve!

The figure outside the door walked up the steps, Pei Rong quickly walked over and opened the door of the living room, seeing the smiling face outside the door, Pei Rong felt that the suffering of the whole day disappeared in an instant .

"Xiao Qi," Pei Rong quickly took the bag in his hand, "Why did you come back? What is this?"

Murong Qing was always in a good mood because of seeing the house with Yutou, seeing Pei Rong reaching out to pick up the bag, he handed it over.Although Pei Rong is a sick patient, these small things can still be lifted. "It's a few bottles of fruit wine. I think my uncle likes to drink it. I just stopped by to get it."

Pei Rong stretched out his hand and rubbed his head, "There are still some at home. Why are you running around?"

Murong smiled lightly, as soon as he entered the door, he heard the sound of talking and laughing in the living room, he knew there were still guests at home, but now it was almost dinner time, and it was time for the guests to leave and go home.During Chinese New Year, most people will not stay at other people's homes for dinner.

While changing the slippers, Murong Qing asked Pei Rong in a low voice, "Uncle's guest?"

"Grandpa Liu." Pei Rong waited patiently against the door frame, "and his granddaughter."

Murong Qing seemed to notice something from his tone, raised his head and glanced at him with a half-smile.

Pei Rong suddenly felt a little embarrassed, "Don't think about it."

Murong Qing's heart twitched slightly, and she couldn't help laughing, "What am I thinking?"

Pei Rong felt that under the light, Murong Qing's amber eyes looked particularly bright, overflowing with water, as if when he blinked, water droplets would drip down his long eyelashes.Pei Rong didn't dare to look any more, lowered his head and coughed uncomfortably, "Don't think about anything!"

Murong Qing couldn't hold back and laughed.

Mr. Pei called them in the living room, "Xiaoqi is back?"

Murong Qing walked into the living room with Pei Rong, and said a few New Year's greetings to Grandpa Liu. The girl from the Liu family had never seen Murong Qing before, and when she suddenly saw a man who looked like a star appearing in front of her, her eyes were a little straight .Pei Rong endured it for a long time, and finally gave her a glare, feeling that she was really disgusted by the way she stared at Murong Qing with shining eyes.

Murong Qing didn't know Mr. Liu's family well, so after exchanging some pleasantries, he took the initiative to go to the kitchen to prepare dinner.Pei Rong was also unwilling to accompany that girl without talking, so he also went to the kitchen under the pretext of helping.

"You should rest." Murong Qing looked at him struggling to walk, and felt helpless in his heart, "Dinner is easy to make, I don't need your help."

"I don't want to go." Pei Rong leaned against the door without moving, "Where have you been today? Did you have lunch?"

Murong Qing didn't want to tell others about him and Yutou, so he listened to the movement in the living room, and asked Pei Rong, "Mr. Liu, are they staying for dinner?"

Seeing that he was avoiding his question, Pei Rong smiled and didn't force him.

Murong Qing felt uncomfortable being looked at by him.Although he lowered his head and was fiddling with a pile of celery and potatoes in front of him, he could feel Pei Rong's eyes sticking to his body, focused and enthusiastic.From childhood to adulthood, Murong Qing was often stared at by people, but Pei Rong's eyes seemed to be subtly different from those in the past.Murong Qing couldn't tell what the difference was, but it was because of this difference that he felt uncomfortable and at a loss.Instead of being full of disgust like before.

Mr. Pei called Pei Rong out in the living room to see off the guests, and Murong Qingjian also came out.If there were some doubts about the intention of these two guests before, the attitude of the two old people is very obvious now.Mr. Pei forced Pei Rong to exchange phone numbers with the girl, and kept reminding Pei Rong that after he was discharged from the hospital, he would invite the girl to go for a walk, watch a movie or something.

Murong Qing stood behind Pei Rong and watched this scene, with a just right smile on his face, but the expression in his eyes was indifferent, without any warmth.He could see Pei Rong's struggle and impatience, so what?Pei Rong is different from him after all, he is not alone, he has parents and grandfather.His parents were soldiers, and his grandfather was an old-school literati.From Murong Qing's point of view, these two kinds of people are unlikely to be able to accept the matter of breaking away from the classics and apostasy.

What's more, even without these factors, would Pei Rong really be able to accept him?Can he really ignore such a bleak past?

In this world, situations are always stronger than people.

Some intentions are destined to be only intentions.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Murong Qing accompanied Pei Lao and Pei Rong to the hospital for a change of medicine, and then proposed to go back to her home.

Although the injury on Pei Rong's body has not healed yet, it has not had much impact on his daily activities, and he doesn't need someone to accompany him at night, and he can help Mr. Pei with washing dishes during the day - there are few people in the family , Cooking doesn't need to be very troublesome, besides, there are so many semi-finished products.In this case, the meaning of Murong Qing's stay is really not great.So, after making an appointment three days later, he came to pick them up to the hospital to change their dressings, and Murong Qing went home with her little toilet bag.Mr. Pei and Pei Rong tried their best to persuade him to stay, but after all, it was not Murong Qing's home, no matter how long they stayed, they would have to leave, but it was only a matter of time.

When Murong Qing arrived home, Xiao Liu had already returned, and was doing hygiene with his sleeves rolled up, the whole room smelled of disinfectant.A few cats huddled on the balcony to bask in the sun, one group was the white cat that came to kick the restaurant that day, and the other group was Yutou and his cat brothers and sisters. The two groups were clearly separated, but luckily they didn't fight like that day .

"Xiaoqi," Xiaoliu was still holding the mop pole in his hand, but he had a cheerful expression on his face, "You're back? Are you still going to live in Pei's hometown?"

Yutou on the balcony also imitated Xiao Liu's tone and called him lazily, "Xiao Qi, are you back? Are you going out?"

Murong smiled unconsciously.He found that since Yutou became a partner in his real estate business, this guy obviously stopped treating himself as an outsider.

"I won't go. I'll stay at home at night, and I'll take them to the hospital to change their dressings in two days." Murong Qing hung up his coat, changed into his slippers and came in. When passing by the kitchen, he poked his head inside, "What are these little guys? Time to come? What's going on on the stove?"

Xiao Liu smiled and said, "Stew the fish. Mix some fresh rice for them later."

Murong glanced lightly at the direction of the balcony, Yutou and those cats had obviously heard the conversation between the two brothers, the white cat with a fierce face was already licking its tongue.Yutou is still more calm, surrounded by cat brothers, like a bandit leader occupying the mountain, blinking his yellow eyes, lying on the balcony basking in the sun in style.

Murong Qing silently estimated how much delicious food he could still have in his bowl after adding the appetite of these few.After all the calculations, it seems that the prospects are not very optimistic.Don't look at their small size, if they really have something delicious to eat, their appetites are not much smaller than Murong Qing's.

Xiao Liu added: "People from Zhang Yu's family asked me to bring back a lot of food. There are also rice cakes and dumplings made by her grandma. I will heat them up later and make two lighter dishes."

Some of the dumplings and cooked food Murong Qing brought back from He Kuan's restaurant two days ago are still in the refrigerator at home, which is enough for the two brothers to eat for a while.The Chinese New Year is like this. We always prepare too much food by accident, and sometimes it is inevitable that there will be some waste.But this is also satisfying people's desire for abundance from another angle.

Xiao Liu added: "Winter Solstice called just now, and asked the two of us to go out with them the night after tomorrow. Shall we go?"

Murong asked him lightly, "Who are there?"

"The winter solstice is said to be these friends we usually keep in touch with," Xiao Liu said with a smile: "In addition to their couple, there are also my boss He Qing and his cousin, the one named He Kuan. There are probably a few people from Zhuangzhou. a friend."

If it's just these people, Murong Qingdao is not particularly repulsive.It happened that he also wanted to ask Zhuang Zhou about building a house in Binhai. He remembered that Zhuang Zhou had a branch company that was in the business of building materials.In this way, there is no need to go to the door to ask for advice.

"Okay," Murong nodded lightly, "Anyway, we're fine, let's go together, and bring our little sister-in-law along."

Xiao Liu smiled and said, "Okay, I'll call Dong Zhi later."
