"Ah?" The hot summer sun mixed with the misty air to form a beautiful rainbow.
"Hahaha." This was the first time he laughed since he came here, scaring away the birds in the trees and the ants on the ground.
It was a hot summer day and the air conditioner in the house was too old to work. Dongya found an electric fan from somewhere, and the chirping sound made people even more annoyed.
"You," Ouyang turned up the volume of the TV, "can't you find something that won't age?"
Seeing his mood change slightly, Ouyang quickly changed his attitude: "Actually, this house is not bad. It's better than the basement. It's too damp there."
"What? You want to move here?" Ouyang looked at her.
"I'm fine with either, what do you mean?"
"The electrical appliances in the house should also be replaced."
"Why don't you just go buy it tomorrow?" she said. "Just treat it as a day off."
Her purpose was simple, which was to help Dongya get rid of his previous fears. As long as he was willing to stay in this family, it meant that he could let go of the past.
In the past few days, they went to several large shopping malls and bought almost everything they needed, except the silk quilt that Dongya remembered.
Just as they reached the second floor of the mall, their godmother and her family came towards them. Dongya had seen them before, so of course she knew them.
The household items in Ouyang's hand caught their attention. You have to know what it means for a man and a woman to come to the mall to buy household items.
"Ouyang, your godmother and godfather."
Although she hadn't seen the two of them since she recovered, the only middle-aged couple who could stand with Jin Lu and Xia Yue were probably her godmother and godfather.
"Ouyang!" Godmother was a little serious.
"Hmm?" She looked at her. Although she was well-maintained, the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes were a little obvious. "Godmother, godfather." Maybe she has always been a polite child in her bones. She is very respectful to her elders.
"Who is he to you?" Wang Yao was aggressive, as if she had caught a child who had made a mistake and had to get to the bottom of it.
"Auntie, don't get me wrong, we are just friends," Dongya said, "How about we find a place to sit down and talk slowly?"
Ouyang began to be a little afraid of this woman, just like a mouse seeing a cat, always wanting to find a place to hide.
"Mom, this is a public place." Xia Yue reminded.
It was almost noon, so they found a restaurant and went into a private room. Godfather was very polite to Dongya, asking about their work, life, and even their usual entertainment.
Ouyang sat between her godmother and godfather, feeling torn between the two. Her godmother was like interrogating a criminal, while her godfather was like coaxing a child.
"Your two brothers said you returned to Chongqing. Why didn't you come back to see us?" Godmother was furious.
"Um, can we change the subject?" Ouyang said as he was picking out the dishes. "Like the weather lately, or some gossip magazines."
"Puchi!" Xia Yue laughed.
Seeing that Jin Lu didn't say a word after meeting Ouyang, the godfather asked, "Ouyang, you haven't contacted Jin Lu recently?"
Ouyang looked at Jin Lu who was sitting opposite him, and probably knew that he had an unclear relationship with him in the past.
"Isn't Brother Jin Lu busy performing everywhere? Don't worry about us."
"What about Xia Yue?" Godmother continued to stir up trouble.
"Xia Yue, doesn't he have his own job?"
The godmother slammed the chopsticks on the table and said, "How do your two brothers treat you? Can't you see it? Why do you have to find a stranger outside?" Maybe she was too angry. Her two sons still didn't find a girlfriend because of her, so she could only vent her anger in this way.
"Mom," Jin Lu started to speak, "This isn't her fault."
"Look," Xia Yue also said, "I told you not to come, but you insisted on coming. Now that you're here, you're throwing a tantrum. Who can stand this?"
Dongya felt that the atmosphere was not right and asked the waiter next to her to leave first.
The smell of gunpowder in the room was indeed quite strong. Ouyang was no longer the same Ouyang as before. She would not let others manipulate her. This meal was destined to be a disaster.
Ouyang got up and left first. When she walked out of the hotel, the first person to chase her out was Xia Yue: "Ouyang, where are you living recently?" She looked at Dong Ya behind her.
"You have my phone number. If you have any questions, call me directly."
"Mom and Dad want to go see you."
She thought about it and realized that Wang Yao still had very good feelings for her. No matter what her attitude was, after all, she was the one who raised her: "Call me when the time comes."
Ouyang always felt that he was a little cruel to his godmother's family, and no one would understand this cruelty.
Ouyang and Dongya drove away, leaving behind several pairs of eyes.
"It seems that your godmother came here for a purpose."
"What purpose do you see?"
"Isn't it obvious? I'll just ask you to choose between her two sons."
Ouyang smiled and said, "I'm afraid it's not as simple as you think."
Although Wang Yao was not shrewd, she was smart enough. She had only one way to treat her two sons. As for why she had always treated herself in that way, she thought it might be because she had deviated from her plan.
Wang Yao and her husband moved into Xia Yue's house. At first, she wanted to go to her eldest son Jin Lu's house, but knowing that he had an important performance recently, she decided not to disturb him.
"Mom?" Xia Yue helped pack up the things they brought from home. "Why did you bring so much food? Isn't it too heavy for you?"
