Driving all the way, Tao Xiaman did not speak, this is what Zhou Zihao has ever seen, she is the most out of state. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Men know that at this time, no words can compare to silent companionship.

Finally, the car drove into Jihua Road, and finally came to a stop in front of a five-story tenement building.

She was passing by...... Not long ago, but she couldn't get up. Zhou Zihao opened the car door for her, but she sat on the chair, raised her head, and didn't get down for a long time.

Suddenly, Zhou Zihao reached out and hugged her out of the car, and said with a smile: "It seems that it's really right to keep exercising, I can still go up to the fifth floor." ”

"Put me down, let me go. Tao Xiaman cried and laughed: "How embarrassing it is." ”

This man can always think of ways to calm himself down.

Tao Xiaman said softly: "You help me up." ”

In this way, the stairs that I couldn't walk last time I revisited the old place alone, and now there are two people walking. The stairs are one step at a time, and even though my foot is now injured and my mobility is impossible, I feel much easier than before.

When he saw the familiar shutting door, Tao Xiaman found that he had really grown up.

"Master Zhou, Master Zhou, Master Zhou, are you there? I'm Zhou Zihao, Master Zhou?" Zhou Zihao slapped the gate continuously, but he didn't get a response for a long time, and couldn't help frowning: "Could it be that you went out?"

"Zihao, you touch the top of the gate, there should be a key there. Tao Xiaman stretched out his hand and pointed to the position near the left: "It should be near here." ”

"Okay, I'll take a look. Zhou Zihao nodded, he didn't need to step on his feet, he could already touch it with his hand. He touched it a few times and smiled, "There really is!"

"When I was a kid, I couldn't touch it all the time. Tao Xiaman suddenly whispered.

Zhou Zihao opened the door easily, and helped Tao Xiaman into the house...... Still didn't hear anything inside the house.

When Zhou Zihao entered the door last time, he had already taken a good look at the living room. As for the room, he naturally didn't look at it abruptly, "Well, it seems that no one is here." Xia Man, doesn't this uncle of yours have any family?

saw Tao Xiaman leaning against the wall and walking towards the workbench...... Standing in front of this workbench, Tao Xiaman couldn't move his steps.

She stretched out her hand and gently picked up a set of phoenix gown skirts placed here, and the moment her hand touched it, she lost her mind.

"It's already ready!" Zhou Zihao walked over, "No wonder Master Zhou called me yesterday, it seems that he planned to let you try it on." ”

He ...... Did he call you?" Tao Xiaman asked back.

Zhou Zihao nodded and said, "Well, I now understand why he was so nervous at that time." But when I called back that number, I couldn't find anyone anymore, it was an empty number. ”

Zhou Zihao also looked at the gown placed on the workbench, and subconsciously said, "It seems that Master Zhou is a little busy when he goes out, and he went out without packing up his clothes?"

"Maybe ......," Tao Xia opened his mouth.

"Maybe what?"

Tao Xiaman shook his head, "It's nothing...... I thought, I want to wait and see here. ”

"Good. Zhou Zihao nodded, "I'll help you sit over there." ”

"No need to ......," Tao Xiaman said softly, "I want to take a good look here." ”

Her gaze turned to the corner of the wall, and she said, "You help me to take a look over there." ”

Looking at the nicks on the corner of the wall, Zhou Zihao squatted down, he knew the effect of these nicks, so he raised his head and asked, "Who is this height for?" Is your cousin still a cousin or something?"

"It's mine. ”

Tao Xiaman stretched out his hand and reached out to touch the notch that just crossed her height. Her fingers slid lightly and lightly over the nick, as if touching an old man's face.

The same height.

Brand new.

"It's mine. ”

Subconsciously, she approached the corner of the wall, and her body was completely attached to it. Zhou Zihao saw that his fiancée's eyes were a little moist, and he heard her say: It's mine.

"It should be the last time Master Zhou measured your height, you came back to engrave it?"

Zhou Zihao thought for a while, then smiled and said, "It seems that your uncle, is still very good to you." It's strange that we shouldn't have met before, but he seems to have known me for a long time. However, I found this master according to the comments on the Internet?"

"I don't ...... either," Tao Xiaman shook his head and said, "I also have a lot of things I don't understand. ”

"Well......" Zhou Zihao said softly: "If you don't understand, don't think about it." Maybe when Master Zhou comes back, he can ask clearly. By the way, where is this toilet? Can I borrow it?"

Tao Xiaman directly pointed to a location...... She knew the place so well that she could find her way even if she didn't have to turn on the lights at night.

She began to hold on to the wall again, walked to the workbench, and sat down.

Slowly opened the set of wedding dresses in front of him, arranging its water chestnut horns...... From the beginning to the completion of this step, she knows that it does not take much time, but at the same time, it also represents how much effort it takes to compress the long process to such a point in this short period of time.

A row of needles on the box, also wearing different threads.

On the trash can next to it, how many crumpled tissues were crumpled into balls, with a little dull vermilion, it was blood...... How many times have you pricked your fingers?

"You...... Who the hell are you. Tao Xiaman breathed hard.

She had a feeling...... It feels like the old man who used to sit here, thread by thread, may never come back here.

She seemed to have kicked something, and subconsciously looked down. It was a stacked pack of food boxes placed under the workbench.

A lot, overlapping, really a lot of weight...... It seems that I have been eating this thing all along.

- I actually bought it for someone. Recently, I met a friend who often forgets to eat for work, and I am afraid that he will not be able to stay up.

She bent down and reached for the boxes as some words began to ring in her ears...... The scenes of the vignettes that I once encountered.

- Regardless of whether the topping noodles are delicious or not, my friend will always finish it.

......

"Xia Man, are you hungry? Why don't we go eat something first and then come back and wait?" Zhou Zihao wiped his hands as he walked out of the bathroom.

But when he looked at the whole living room, and even opened the doors of the other rooms one by one, he was nowhere to be seen.

Zhou Zihao picked up the phone suddenly, and when he dialed Tao Xiaman's mobile phone, he heard the ringtone ring on the sofa next to him...... Her bag, along with bits and pieces, is still here.

But the man is gone!

......

......

Touching the narrow entrance, Tao Xiaman limped into the noodle restaurant.

The white-haired noodle shop owner was settling accounts at this moment, this was no longer the time for the food market, and there was not a single customer in the small restaurant.

Seeing someone coming in, the owner of the noodle restaurant was stunned for a moment, "Hey, girl, we haven't opened the market here yet, it's going to be late, and the noodles haven't been reconciled yet." ”

But seeing that the girl was limping, the owner of the noodle restaurant still stood up kindly and walked over to help, "Girl, are you okay?"

"No ......" Tao Xiaman shook his head, and suddenly said, "Boss, can I ask you something?"

"Ah, you say. ”

Tao Xiaman hesitated for a while before gritting his teeth and asking, "Uncle, do you still have an impression of the young man who often comes to you to pack two portions of noodles recently?"

"Uh......" the owner of the noodle shop was stunned, "Oh, the one with the knife-cut noodles and toppings?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Tao Xiaman hurriedly said, "Did you see him today?"

"Today...... Not today. The owner of the noodle shop said casually: "I'm still wondering, why haven't I seen anyone today." ”

"When did he usually come?"

"Well, it's usually two meals in the morning and evening. The owner of the noodle shop thought, "Yes, I will come in the morning and evening." But I didn't come for lunch today, so I don't know if dinner will come. Why, girl, are you looking for this young man?"

"Uncle, can I sit here?"

"Ah, yes, you sit, you sit. The owner of the noodle restaurant helped Tao Xiaman to sit down, "Girl, I'll pour you a glass of water." ”

"No need. Tao Xiaman shook his head, and suddenly asked again: "Uncle...... Did the young man who bought noodles say anything strange?"

"Didn't you?"

The owner of the noodle restaurant shook his head and said, "I remember that this young man rarely spoke and was very quiet. After the noodles were ready, he paid and left, never saying anything...... Well, if there's nothing to do, you can sit and sit for as long as you want, and I'll have to settle the score. ”

"It's okay, you're busy. ”

Tao Xiaman sat alone. She remembered that she had walked a little inexplicably, so she came to this place desperately, and she didn't even think to say a word to her fiancé.

But when she was about to make a call, she realized that she didn't even have her mobile phone with her. Tao Xiaman couldn't help but smile bitterly and asked himself: Tao Xiaman, what's wrong with you.

She shook her head, thinking that she should go back. But just as he stood up, a football suddenly rolled in from outside the noodle shop, and then a child ran in with him.

Then there was another woman, a slightly chubby woman, only to hear this chubby woman say a little angrily: "How many times have you told you not to play football on the road, you just don't obey!

"Mom, I didn't, it rolled in on its own, I didn't kick it!" the child muttered.

"You still say, how could the ball come in on its own! You started lying at such a young age, didn't you!" The slightly chubby woman's eyes widened at this time, and she was about to hit her son.

But this kid thief, when he saw someone, he hid directly behind the person...... It doesn't matter that this big sister's feet are tied like a dumpling.

"Chen Cheng! You are so disobedient, aren't you! You come over to me! Don't harass people!" The slightly chubby woman crossed her waist, but watched her son harass others, and immediately apologized again, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, my son has been very naughty, he didn't mean it." Are you okay...... Xia Man, Feng Xiaman, you're Feng Xiaman, right! I'm Meimei! Jiang Xiaomei!"

......

Two women, and a child drinking marble soda, chatted in this small noodle restaurant.

"It turns out that you went abroad, no wonder ......" The chubby woman named Meimei sighed: "I didn't expect to see you after more than ten years." ”

Tao Xiaman also sighed, she had already met Meimei once...... The last time she revisited her hometown, it was only then that she saw her, and although she recognized her, she didn't come forward to recognize her.

Tao Xiaman looked at the child who was hiding behind his mother's skirt, and said softly: "Well, it's been more than ten years, and your son is so old." ”

Meimei suddenly said, "Do you know whose child this is me and who?"

"Who's?"

"Amu! Chen Zimu!"

"That naughty king!" Tao Xiaman said in surprise: "You two are actually married! Oh my God, I really can't imagine it!"

"I didn't think of it either. Meimei shook her head, it was also a strange look, but the smile was very sweet, she said: "This is probably the so-called impermanence of the world, right? ”

"Nothing. Tao Xiaman shook his head.

Meimei also stopped the topic abruptly...... She and the woman in front of her used to be very good friends at the beginning, but they haven't seen each other for more than ten years, but now they seem so rusty.

Perhaps this rustiness is not because of the separation of more than ten years, but because it has existed more than ten years ago...... There were some prejudices among parents at the beginning.

"By the way, why did you suddenly come back this time?"

"I'm getting married, and my fiancé's hometown is from here, so I'm back for a wedding drink. Tao Xiaman said softly.

"Congratulations!" Meimei subconsciously grabbed Tao Xiaman's palm, but soon felt something wrong, so she retracted her hand awkwardly.

Tao Xiaman grabbed it with his backhand, "That day, will you come?"

"Of course, I will definitely come!" Meimei said softly, she suddenly lowered her head: "Xia Man, I'm sorry." That's when I ......"

"The past is gone. Tao Xiaman shook his head.

Meimei smiled bitterly, she reached out and touched her son's head, "But I know that I hurt you." It's not just me, it's all the ...... At that time, none of us should have done that to you. Really, the older a person is, the more he understands things, and the more he understands his own naivety. Especially ......"

Meimei said softly: "Especially after having this little naughty ghost, I understand this even more. Children's hearts are fragile, they can hear a lot of words, and they can write down far more words than we adults can imagine. Some things, they may remember for a lifetime. ”

Tao Xiaman smiled bitterly: "Didn't you say it, let it pass in the past." It's good like it is now. I didn't even think we would have a chance to sit down and chat. ”

"yes, maybe it's fate. Meimei said: "Like me here, I got married early, became a full-time housewife, went to pick up my children from school at this point every day, and then went to the vegetable market to buy vegetables, lived here, and even passed by here every day, but how could I imagine that I could see you here again." ”

Tao Xiaman just smiled...... It froze something out of the blue.

"Oh, I remember, in the old days, Uncle Feng used to bring you here to eat. Meimei looked up at the surroundings of this noodle restaurant, "I really miss it, I haven't been here to eat since I'm good...... I'm sorry I'm talking too much. ”

Tao Xiaman shook his head and didn't say anything.

Meimei hesitated, "That's right, Xia Man." You...... Have you ever met your dad?"

"I haven't seen you in a long time. Tao Xia said quietly: "Since he had an accident, I haven't seen him again." ”

"You...... Do you hate him?"

"Hate it. Tao Xiaman's expression was complicated: "Actually, I didn't hate it for long." It's just that the days are getting longer...... will be afraid. ”

"You...... Aren't you going to meet him?" Meimei gently grabbed Tao Xiaman's palm, "I know I'm not qualified to talk about your family affairs. But to be honest, I'm also a parent, so I understand what it's like to be a parent. This kid makes me angry every day, and sometimes I really want to throw him out the door and leave him alone. But ah, these angry can't last a night. If I don't see him for a day, I always feel like something is missing. I think Uncle Feng is the same. No matter what the previous generation did wrong, they have already been punished as they deserve. Your mother passed away early, and he grew up with you alone, and he never let you suffer any grievances. It doesn't matter who he is out there, whether he's a tailor or a criminal, he's just a father to you. ”

"Meimei ......"

"Xia Man. Meimei said softly: "Don't you feel it? I have always lived in happiness." Something happened when I was a child, but I met the adoption of a kind person, grew up, and met a fiancé who loved you. You've really been living in happiness, but you don't feel like you're happy. Why do you feel like these things are going to leave you?"

"I ......" Tao Xiaman wanted to say something...... She found that she couldn't say anything.

"Xia Man! Xia Man! Great, you're really here!"

At this time, Zhou Zihao ran in panting from outside, and grabbed her hand, "I didn't see it, I asked people along the way, and I found this place! Great, are you okay?

"I'm fine, there's someone. Tao Xiaman shook his head.

Zhou Zihao noticed that there was a mother and son next to him, and said suspiciously: "This is ......"

"My classmate when I was a child, Meimei. ”

"Hello, hello. Zhou Zihao hurriedly said politely.

Meimei nodded, then looked at Tao Xiaman, and said with a slight smile: "I'm not wrong, right? A man who loves you so much, who said that you will not be happy? Do you still think that these things will run away? You just never intend to let yourself go." ”

......

"What did your classmates talk to you about?"

Meimei didn't take long to take her son to continue to go grocery shopping, and in the noodle restaurant, Zhou Zihao took a sip of water and asked curiously.

"Some homely sayings. Tao Xiaman shook his head and sighed: "I haven't seen each other for more than ten years, and people will really change a lot." I didn't even know she could say that. ”

"Well, maybe it's because you've become a parent and learned to be verbose?" Zhou Zihao said, "Will you be like this?"

"Looking for death!" Tao Xiaman knocked Zhou Zihao.

Who's not saying it's already in happiness?

......

returned to the old house again, and Zhou Zihao sat on the sofa with Tao Xiaman in his arms and waited. Wait until it is completely dark, wait until nine o'clock in the evening, wait until eleven o'clock in the evening.

The two still didn't wait for Master Zhou's return.

It's as if there has never been a Master Zhou, because at night, there is no electricity here.

Unconsciously, Tao Xiaman fell asleep very sleepily.

She had a very strange dream.

In the dream, she seems to have become a transparent person. She was still in the old house, but there was a small lamp on it—it was a small lamp on the workbench.

It's probably late at night, right?

It was quiet, and there was only a slightly hunched figure in front of the workbench, squinting, wearing a needle and thread from generation to generation.

On the red silk, golden auspicious clouds appeared line by line.

She sat next to this figure like this, silently accompanying him, for a long, long, long time.

Suddenly, she suddenly traveled to a strange place.

In the middle of a cave.

She seemed to hear something.

Familiar sounds.

“...... This dinner, this chat, is already worth it. Besides, I've been out there for so long, and I've already earned it. ”

"Why should I, why should I let her life that she has finally been happy with and continue to mess up. I...... I shouldn't have been in her life again......"

"Send me back......"

She saw that in the thick fog, the old figure disappeared little by little, and she saw that she was still asleep in the cave.

She woke up suddenly, and the blinds shone with a touch of sunlight, and it turned out to be daylight. She is still here, and so is Zhou Zihao beside her.

It turned out that the night had passed.

She subconsciously touched her face, and she thought she had cried. (To be continued.) )
