When Li Ersan called, Xu Qing had just finished washing his clothes and was about to hang them on the balcony.

The bell rang persistently, and he dried his clothes according to his own rhythm before walking over to answer the phone.

"Brother Qing, you are busy now."

Li Ersan said a descriptive interrogative sentence in an affirmative tone.

"No, you said."

"At noon today, do you know what Jiang Shi'an is doing?" Li Ersan did not expect Xu Qing to reply after asking, and continued on his own, "I feel that he regards me as a rival in love."

Xu Qing: "...?"

"Take you as a rival in love?" Xu Qing asked these five words again.

"Yeah, it's so funny. It seems that Ji He gave you the ticket. Fortunately, you didn't come. If you came, in Jiang Shi'an's eyes, wouldn't Ji He step on two boats or our two friends? Be jealous for him."

"I'm so surprised, not to mention that he is not with Ji He, does he really regard Ji He as the best fish in his fish pond? Wuyuzi!"

Xu Qing laughed, "So you did it on purpose this afternoon?"

"Of course. I got angry at noon and made him ruthless. If he comes to yin and yang again, I have to go back to yin and yang."

Li Ersan just finished a round of fighting, put down the controller, picked up the mobile phone on the computer table and turned on the speakerphone, "No way, do you think I am?"

Xu Qing denied, "No, I don't think it's something you would do."

"Well, indeed. To be honest, I got home and took a shower for two hours."

The next game was about to start, Li Ersan put the phone back to its original place, "That's what happened, it's quite strange, I don't think his brain circuit is at all like that of a child raised by the Jiang family."

"Brother Heqing, you said that you want you to be more vigilant. I heard Ji He talk about the incident of crashing a car and touching porcelain. I don't know if he did it to win Ji He's sympathy, or to get along with the Gu family?"

"—But let me say that the Jiang family and the Gu family are not of the same class, and his way of striking up a conversation is too low-level."

"Hey, the dog is looking for me, I'll hang up first! I'll tell you if I have follow-up information—"

Li Ersan hung up the phone with a snap.

The trajectory of Jiang Shi'an's actions is really strange.

Xu Qing listed the known information in his mind: Jiang Shi'an seems to be chasing Wang Anzhi, Wang Anzhi seems to be with Qin Baiwei, Jiang Shi'an is possessive of Ji He, and wants to take away the opportunity of Ji He and Gu Xiao's acquaintance... ?

...I still can't understand what people are thinking.

so complicated.

Xu Qing found an empty mineral water bottle, poured some water into it, and inserted the lily flower through the mouth of the bottle.

The tools for handling flowers will not be available until tomorrow, and until then, it is still necessary to keep the flowers as fresh as possible.

The pattering raindrops hit the windows, meandering down the corners of the eaves of the walls, and trickling into puddles.

Xu Qing glanced at the white lily in the bottle before going out, and the petals unfolded, and she was more energetic than before.

Grandpa and grandma live in a large courtyard in the south of the city. The greenery is very well done, clean and beautiful.Most of the people living in the compound are elderly people who live there for the elderly.

At the same time, the surrounding environment is also good. The nearest subway entrance is more than 500 meters away from the community, and there are many living infrastructures. There is a large hospital nearby. The elderly have a headache, and it is very convenient to see a doctor.

When I was young, my grandparents couldn't see the son-in-law torturing their son, so they would take him over to live for a few days.

Usually stay for two or three days, no more than four days at most, Wei Zhenzhen will come to take him back.

When Xu Jiabao was first born, his grandparents had no difference in their attitude towards the two brothers. After a few years, Xu Hengshan doted on Xu Jiabao and kept Xu Qing indifferent.

Xu Hengshan would not let go of any opportunity to grab money. He noticed the change in the attitude of his father-in-law and mother-in-law almost at the same time. From then on, he basically picked Xu Qing to ask for money when he went to their house.

After Xu Qing discovered Xu Hengshan's little tricks, he went less often.

After getting off the subway and walking to the entrance of the community, the rain is still falling, forming one rain curtain after another.

The deep black umbrella handle held by Xu Qing's pale fingers walked step by step through the boundless rain.

On the left side of the entertainment facilities in the courtyard, a corner of the awning slanted out, covering a stone table and four stone benches, where four gray-haired old men sat and played chess.

Two people are below, and two people are pointing the country.

Noticing the sound of footsteps approaching under the rain, a man in a black tunic looked up in Xu Qing's direction.

"Hey, you're not that, the little grandson of the Wei family?"

Xu Qing raised her eyes, "Yes, Xu Qing, you have a really good memory."

"Hahaha, I haven't seen you for so long, do you still remember me? Come on, let me test you, who am I?"

Seeing that he was talking sexually, Xu Qing simply changed the direction of walking and leaned against the stone table. The raindrops merged into a long stream from the angled corner of the canopy, and hit the umbrella surface heavily. Flatten into a ball.

"You are Grandpa Gu, right?"

"Oh, you really remember me, old man!"

Grandpa Gu pointed to the person who was playing chess beside him, "Do you remember him? It was under that banyan tree before, who read "Journey to the West" to you..."

"Thank you, teacher."

Xu Qing took the words and added three words.

Playing chess, Mr. Xie, who was fighting to a critical moment, snorted, "What kind of teacher am I? I just read a picture book to someone. It's not worth it, it's mediocre."

"..."

Xu Qing squeezed the corner of her clothes with her empty hands, "I have a mobile phone now. Teacher Xie can leave the phone for me, and I will contact you often."

Teacher Xie slowly knocked down the chessboard with a sunspot in his hands. After being cold for a few seconds, he couldn't hold back anymore. He reported a series of phone numbers, "If you didn't remember—"

Xu Qing sincerely said, "I will definitely take the blame."

"Come on." Teacher Xie waved his hand, "Let's go, don't you have other things to do?"

Xu Qing silently acquiesced, said goodbye to several old people, turned around and walked towards the building where Wei's house was located.

As he walked away, Grandpa Gu joked, "Hey, Lao Xie, didn't you say earlier that you would leave him a copy of the Mid-Autumn Festival mooncakes? Why didn't you let him go to your house to get them?"

Teacher Xie glanced at him, pretended to be stupid, and said stubbornly, "Did I say such a thing, no, no!"

Mr. Xie was met by Xu Qing in this yard, the first one, an elder outside the Wei family.

The first time we met was summer, and the century-old banyan tree in the courtyard was lush and green. Teacher Xie moved a deck chair, took a yellowed book, and basked in the sun under the banyan tree.

Although the grandpa and grandma took Xu Qing over, they didn't care much about him, as long as he was there when eating.Therefore, when Xu Qing lived in the compound, he usually searched for a corner by himself, watching the sky and the earth quietly.

Teacher Xie read many books to him. It can be said that he is Xu Qing's enlightener.

Is a respectable elder.

The last time Xu Qing came to the compound was in September... Teacher Xie thinks that I haven't seen them for a long time?

probably.

In front of the building, Xu Qing stood under the narrow slate eaves, put away her umbrella, saved the phone number she had just memorized in her mobile phone, and then went upstairs.

Grandpa Wei Zheng and grandmother Liu Aifen were already busy preparing meals in the kitchen. When the doorbell rang, Liu Aifen wiped her hands with her apron and walked to the porch to open the door for Xu Qing. "Xiaoqing, come and sit down."

She half pushed Xu Qing to the sofa, "What kind of fruit do you want to eat? Do you want tea? Or boiled water? Is lukewarm water okay?"

"I'll just do it myself."

"It's fine, you can make whatever you want to eat or drink." Liu Aifen let go of his arm and walked to the kitchen, "I packed some things for you and took them to the dormitory. You can take a look first, and I'll leave later." Remember to take it when the time comes."

"what?"

Things have been tidied up a long time ago, Liu Aifen came over with a big bulging white plastic bag, "Homemade, chili sauce, bacon, sauerkraut... you share a point with your roommates."

Xu Qing stood up, took the bag, and put it on the sofa, "Okay, I will share it when they return to the dormitory."

Liu Aifen took the remote control from the tea table, "If you're bored, turn on the TV by yourself, I'll go to the kitchen to make lunch first."

Seeing that Xu Qing wanted to follow her up, she quickly stopped her, "Don't come, I don't need your help, you take a break, you are tired from studying."

Three people, eight dishes.

The serving bowls are still large.

Xu Qingmo, "There are too many dishes."

"Not much! How much is too much? You haven't been here for more than a month. Eat better today."

After eating half of the white rice in Xu Qing's bowl, Liu Aifen's topic changed from studies to family.

"Didn't your father say that he wanted to open a restaurant?"

Xu Qing frowned, "He came to see you?"

"Cough." Liu Aifen rubbed her hands, "It's like this, his restaurant has opened, and your grandfather and I have visited the site, and the business is booming. Your grandfather and I invested some money in him."

"..."

It is impossible to learn a lesson, even if you eat it, you will treat it as if nothing happened.

Xu Qing would also persuade them not to invest money in Xu Hengshan before, but the decision made by the old man, there is no room for juniors to refute, and if he is really determined to invest, no one can stop him.

Therefore, now Xu Qing just said, "Very good."

"Um……"

Hearing that Liu Aifen still had something to say, Xu Qing raised her eyes in doubt.

"Have you lived in school for more than a month? Do you have time to go home and have a look on weekends?"

Liu Aifen recalled her daughter Wei Zhenzhen's complaint on the phone the day before yesterday, and said so.

"No. [-] Middle School is very busy studying, and I don't have time to go back."

Don't even think about it, Wei Zhenzhen must have called, or came to cry in person.Usually at home, she, Xu Hengshan and Xu Jiabao repel Xu Qing together, and the three of them have a common position and are in cahoots.

Now that Xu Qing is gone, only her, Xu Hengshan, and Xu Jiabao are left in the family.

Although it wasn't surprising that Zhang Yan had already moved in, he was an outsider to Xu Hengshan's family, so Xu Hengshan wanted to save face in front of him.

Therefore, in the small family, Xu Hengshan is the biggest and Xu Jiabao is the second. Without affecting Xu Hengshan's own interests, Xu Jiabao is the first and Wei Zhenzhen will always be the bottom.

Xu Qing thought dully, Xu Hengshan must have started to quarrel frequently with Wei Zhenzhen again.

But life...isn't he living it by himself?

He dragged Wei Zhenzhen to the police station back then, but it was Wei Zhenzhen who refused to divorce.

Choked up by Xu Qing's words, Liu Aifen was embarrassed, "Okay, yes, yes, learning is important. Come! Eat vegetables, eat vegetables, eat more, this fish was caught by your grandfather in the lake the day before yesterday, it is very fresh! "

For a moment, there was only the sound of bowls and chopsticks clashing on the dinner table.

Grandpa Wei Zheng poured himself a glass of wine, neither salty nor light, "If you don't have time to go back, you don't have to go back. You can make more calls. Everyone cares about you."

Xu Qing smiled inexplicably, neither saying yes nor bad.

He speeded up his meal, rejected Liu Aifen's proposal to give him another bowl of rice, rested on the sofa for a while, and offered to leave after Wei Zhengze and Liu Aifen finished eating.

"There is still something to do at school."

"Okay, then be careful on the way, and remember to share things with your roommates." Liu Aifen sent him to the entrance, bent over to put on his shoes.

Xu Qing picked up the plastic bag, "You don't need to send it, the weather outside is bad."

"Hey, okay." Liu Aifen was startled for a moment, then smiled and told again, "It's raining, don't walk too fast, be careful not to fall."

"Ah."

The rain in the afternoon did not stop, the dark clouds hung down in the sky, and the pedestrians on the ground gathered and scattered.

Xu Qing tied a knot on the plastic bag to ensure that it would not be spilled when going through the security check on the subway, and then boarded the subway line in the opposite direction to the school.

On a rainy Sunday and a lazy afternoon, there are plenty of empty seats on the subway.On the way, Xu Qing transferred to Line 1, and after another six stops, he finally arrived at the place he was going to.

The space between the storefronts on the street is very empty, and the signboards are not crowded at all, and there is no possibility of collision.

A sign on the roof of a store is engraved with black letters on a white background in meaningless Latin, and the warm yellow lighting of the store can be seen through the large glass windows.

With a creak, Xu Qing pushed open the glass door, and many diamond-shaped crystal pillars strung together in various colors jingled.

There are no customers, and the boss is sleeping on his stomach behind the counter.

But he was not asleep, and immediately raised his head when he heard the sound.

"Xiaoqing?"
