nothing special

Ren Qinghong looked at the empty room after returning home, recalling the slight sadness in Lu Shan's smile, and felt more pity for this girl.

So when Ren Qinghong appeared in front of Lu Shan again, Lu Shan was surprised and asked her if she would like to live with him.

In the end, Lu Shan moved into Ren Qinghong's house, and Ren Qinghong charged Lu Shan a symbolic two hundred yuan as rent. Lu Shan's arrival finally broke Ren Qinghong's five years of silence.

Finally, Ren Qinghong was no longer alone in this family.

Lu Shan's things are pitiful, except for the thin bedding and a bag of clothes in the cubicle, there is almost nothing else.

"That's all?"

"Well, it's fine if I come." Lu Shan took the bag from Ren Qinghong's hand.

"Let me help you, you're welcome." Ren Qinghong said.

"Thank you"

Just one trip back and forth to get everything.

This is the first time that Lu Shan came to Ren Qinghong's house, although it is not big, the decoration is very warm, but it is a bit messy.

Ren Qinghong tidied up the house where his parents used to live, and it has remained the same for five years.

"This is the room my parents used to live in, you can live here from now on." Ren Qinghong said.

"Thank you." Lu Shan put down her bag and looked around the room.

The furniture in the room was left behind by Ren Qinghong's parents when they were alive, a wardrobe and a dressing table, simple and clean.

There is still a photo on the dressing table, it is a group photo of Ren Qinghong and his parents, and it is the only photo left at home now.

Lu Shan looked at the three people in the photo, Ren Qinghong looked more like her father.

Now that Lu Shan is living in Ren Qinghong's house, what about her parents?Lu Shan didn't ask, and Ren Qinghong didn't take the initiative to mention it, so the two of them started living under the same roof.

Today, Ren Qinghong didn't buy fast food when he got off work, and he helped Lu Shan move things temporarily, and the two of them didn't have dinner until seven o'clock in the evening.

All that could be eaten at Ren Qinghong's house was instant noodles, but the first dinner Lu Shan came to Ren Qinghong's house, the two of them could only cook instant noodles.

But for Lu Shan, even simple instant noodles are satisfying.

The first night the two lived together was a bit awkward, for Ren Qinghong it was not used to it, for Lu Shan it was more of a loss.

Ren Qinghong found a new quilt from the cabinet in his room, which was a bonus that the company gave to all employees last year.

Lu Shan's quilt was too thin, Ren Qinghong felt cold looking at it, he really didn't know how this girl got here these days.

Ren Qinghong didn't know how much his small actions moved Lu Shan, and the two would always maintain such a harmonious relationship between landlord and tenant.

In the morning Ren Qinghong opened his hazy eyes, with his arms resting on his forehead, getting out of bed in winter is a very tormenting thing.

It takes a lot of courage to get up from the warm blanket.

Ren Qinghong heard noises outside in a daze, at first he thought there was a thief in the house, but then he remembered that there was an extra person in the house.

Ren Qinghong reluctantly got up from the bed, who made her an ordinary office worker, if she didn't get up again, she might be late again.

When Ren Qinghong put on his clothes and came out of the room, he saw that the originally messy living room had become clean, and he wanted to know who did it.

Lu Shan wrung out the towel and came out of the bathroom, saw Ren Qinghong who looked confused and said with a smile, "Good morning."

"Good morning."

Lu Shan didn't have many clothes, and even few winter clothes. She wore too much and washed old clothes that looked a little pale, but they were still clean and fresh.

The difference between Lu Shan and most girls lies in the different living environment. She has worked hard all the year round and does not pay special attention to whether her clothes are novel and beautiful, as long as she keeps herself clean and tidy.

Even so, Lu Shan still has her own charm, which in Ren Qinghong's view is pure and beautiful.

Before Ren Qinghong left, he left the spare key of the house to Lu Shan, and Lu Shan watched Ren Qinghong go out.

Sure enough, there was one more person in the family, many things changed, Ren Qinghong actually had a small expectation in his heart.

At the end of the year, there was a lot of work, and Ren Qinghong was a little tired after a busy day, so Ren Qinghong hesitated in the fast food restaurant where he often bought on weekdays.

Ren Qinghong thought for a while and finally bought the usual two copies, carrying the bag and walking towards home.

When I passed by the barber shop, the barber shop was still closed, and the proprietress had pasted a piece of paper on the door, which was about two days' notice of closure.

Lu Shan was at home all day today, Ren Qinghong thought about what Lu Shan would do, probably read a book.

Ren Qinghong came to the door of the house, and when he took out the key from his bag, the door opened.

"You're back. I heard movement outside and thought it was you who came back, but I didn't expect it to be." Lu Shan's smile was full of enthusiasm, which also infected Ren Qinghong.

"Yes." Ren Qinghong also smiled.

Lu Shan turned sideways, Ren Qinghong walked into the room and smelled the long-lost meal, and saw a few simple dishes on the dining room table.

Ren Qinghong didn't know whether to let go of the hand holding the bag.

Lu Shan also saw the fast food box in Ren Qinghong's hand and said nervously, "Sorry, I made some meals on my own."

Lu Shan took the initiative to clean up the house today, seeing the instant noodles in the kitchen and the rotten eggs in the refrigerator, she guessed that Ren Qinghong is a person who is not very good at taking care of herself.

Looking at the pot of meat with white hairs, Lu Shan's heart ached, and it was shameful to waste it.

Lu Shan, who grew up in the mountains, can only eat some vegetables and coarse grains grown at home, except for the meat during the Chinese New Year. Even though the situation has improved in recent years, the food is very simple.

Such wasteful things were unthinkable in the past, but such things are not uncommon in today's prosperous cities.

Lu Shan looked at the full trash can and sighed.

In order to thank Ren Qinghong for her help and shelter, Lu Shan wanted to cook a meal by herself, but she didn't expect it to be like this.

Ren Qinghong smiled, and put the bag in his hand on the table, "I wouldn't have bought these if I had known that you cooked the meals, so I would treat them as extra dishes."

When Ren Qinghong said that, Lu Shan also smiled.

Ren Qinghong untied the bag and put all the packed dishes on the table, and Lu Shan also put them on for her.

"Why did you buy so many?" Lu Shan asked.

"Because I don't know what you like to eat, so I bought more." Ren Qinghong touched his face.

"Thank you." Lu Shan said.

"Actually, I should say thank you more." Facing the table of hot meals, Ren Qinghong said.

The two thanked each other, and at the end they couldn't help laughing.

"How does it taste?" Lu Shan was a little nervous, not knowing Ren Qinghong's taste.

"It's delicious." Ren Qinghong said with a smile.

The long-lost taste of home, I have to say that Lu Shan's craftsmanship is a bit like the familiar taste that Ren Qinghong's mother, Ren Qinghong's taste buds remember.

"As long as you like it, eat more." Seeing that Ren Qinghong was satisfied, Lu Shan also felt satisfied.

Both of them ate a lot this meal, but they haven't settled everything yet.

After dinner, Ren Qinghong helped Lu Shan clean up the table and dishes, and Lu Shan put some leftovers in the safe box and put them in the refrigerator.

In the kitchen, Ren Qinghong saw the lunch box he brought from his aunt last time, and now it has been cleaned and put on the dish rack.

Ren Qinghong smiled a little awkwardly, he didn't expect Lu Shan to live with him but asked her to take care of him, thinking about it is embarrassing.

"When I came back just now, I saw the notice posted by the barber shop. Have you been resting these two days?"

"Yes." Lu Shan smiled and nodded.

There was no words for a while, and the living room fell into silence again.

Ren Qinghong remembered what Zhang Yi had said to her a few days ago, walked into his room, and turned on the computer.

Ren Qinghong and Zhang Yi chatted for a long time, Zhang Yi happily told Ren Qinghong that she had finished her studies ahead of schedule, so she could return to China in April next year.

Ren Qinghong was also happy for Zhang Yi, but she pretended to be mysterious when mentioning Zhang Yi's boyfriend.

When Ren Qinghong finished chatting with Zhang Yi and came out of the living room, Lu Shan was already gone, and Ren Qinghong saw that Lu Shan's door was ajar.

Ren Qinghong looked up at the wall clock on the wall, it was already eight o'clock, did Lu Shan rest?

Ren Qinghong stood outside the door and gently knocked on the door.

"Are you asleep?" Ren Qinghong asked.

"Not yet." Lu Shan said and came to open the door.

"I boiled water, you can wash up later." Ren Qinghong said.

"Okay, thank you." Lu Shan said.

Ren Qinghong saw that all the lights in the room were turned off, leaving only a small desk lamp by the bedside. Lu Shan was reading under the desk lamp just now.

"There are a lot of books on the bookshelf in my room, you can read them if you like." Ren Qinghong said.

Lu Shan was extremely pleased with Ren Qinghong's generosity, and she complied with a smile.

The last few days of the new year are the busiest time in the barber shop. Many people want to change something when they say goodbye to the old and welcome the new. Hair is an inevitable choice.

The barber shop has two or three times as many customers as usual, and it closes later than usual.

It was already eleven o'clock when he closed the shop with the proprietress and returned home, Ren Qinghong had already rested.

In order not to disturb Ren Qinghong's rest, Lu Shan would clean up and wash gently.

Gradually, the two of them got used to living under the same roof, and even Ren Qinghong would go to the barber shop to help out when he was free.

Considering that Ren Qinghong always buys some fast food, Lu Shan will take some time to go home and cook for Ren Qinghong every time.There are some kitchen utensils in the cubicle of the barber shop. In the past, I and the proprietress used to cook and eat by myself. When I was really overwhelmed, Lu Shan would tell Ren Qinghong to give it to Ren Qinghong when she passed by after work at the barber shop.

This is better than Ren Qinghong always eating some fast food.

The proprietress also likes the little girl Ren Qinghong very much. From the first time she saw Ren Qinghong, she felt that this little girl has a good heart.
