Chen Nongmo's exclamation seemed to press the start button for the still image.
Cao Liu didn't expect to surprise anyone, and this meeting was not part of his plan.
He tried to lift his foot and just took a step: "You"
"Swoosh!" A figure flashed by, and Chen Nongmo only felt a flash before his eyes, and the girl standing next to him disappeared.
She picked up the date paste cake and looked back blankly.
There was nothing at the open door.
After being stunned for a long while, Chen Nongmo came back to his senses when he heard his second brother's laughter.
She looked at the man who rarely showed his emotions so openly, and asked inexplicably: "Second brother, did you scare Xiuxiu away?"
Cao Liu put his fist to his lips and softened his smile: "It seems so."
Frankly speaking, he didn't expect Tong Xiuxiu to react like this.
Chen Nongmo was even more speechless: "You are quite happy?"
This time Cao Liu didn't say anything, but turned around to push his bicycle.
He is very good at guessing people's minds, and may be a little self-righteous.
But when his sister mentioned Tong Xiuxiu in an ambiguous tone, Cao Liu understood that the girl should be single and had shown some affection for him.
Otherwise, with Yu Yu's personality, he would never speak to me.
He is also an extremely rational person.
27 is a good age to get married.
Instead of going on a blind date with a girl you don't know, you might as well meet the only girl you've ever had a crush on.
If we can really get together, that would be the best.
Even if I can't, after all we know each other, it wouldn't be a big deal if I could help solve the problem.
However, all these assumptions were confirmed the moment Tong Xiuxiu saw him turn around and run away.
Cao Liu knew clearly that the girl still liked him.
He just didn't expect that her personality didn't seem to have changed much at the age of 26 compared to when she was 19.
Simple and cute.
"Where are you going?" Here, Chen Nongmo, whose mind was already a mess, saw his second brother pushing a bicycle and subconsciously followed him to ask.
Cao Liu raised his hand helplessly and rubbed his sister's head: "Go call the fourth and fifth brothers."
Chen Nongmo suddenly realized something and opened his mouth to ask something, but in the end he didn't ask.
Forget it, let them develop on their own.
Given her second brother's strong character beneath his gentle appearance, there was no need for her to bother reminding him.
Let’s just eat her date paste cake.
Thinking of this, Chen Nongmo held Xiao Hei in one hand and the date paste cake in the other, and walked towards the house with light steps = the other side.
The two courtyards are about 10 minutes' walk away.
The Tong family attaches great importance to all aspects of their children's education. Tong Xiuxiu is a very ladylike girl in her daily life and she rarely jogs.
But this time, with her confused mind, she ran all the way back home.
It was not until I closed the door and leaned on my knees, gasping for breath, that I realized what a stupid thing I had done.
Then she felt completely unwell.
She just acted like a mad woman.
Just because I met Cao Liu???
She was clearly relieved.
In fact, in recent years, she has rarely thought about this person.
But why did I recognize it at the first sight?
No, no, no, that's not right. She didn't see the person clearly just now. She only caught a glimpse of the silhouette, and she started to feel something was wrong.
Ah!!! The more she thought about it, the more embarrassed she felt, so she just squatted on the ground with her knees hugged.
She did a stupid thing.
Where has the stability that belongs to a 26-year-old mature woman gone?
No, Tong Xiuxiu looked down at herself and saw how ugly she looked. Why didn't she wear a woolen coat today? Why did she have to wear a thick coat? Ah!!
This all sucks.
Devastated, Tong Xiuxiu hugged her knees and curled herself up into a ball.
Here, within a minute or two, Tong Hao saw his sister's expression change several times.
Seeing her becoming more and more depressed and shrinking like a mushroom, Tong Hao, who was worried sick, had no choice but to come over.
I squatted next to my sister and asked, "What's wrong? What happened?"
Tong Xiuxiu remained silent.
Worried that he would get cold if he squatted for too long, the boy, who was only 18 years old but already 1.8 meters tall, simply forcefully pulled his sister into the house.
He poured another cup of warm water into her hand before continuing to ask, "What happened? Did you see a ghost?"
Hearing this, Tong Xiuxiu glared at her brother: "What nonsense are you talking about? If someone hears it, I will report you carefully."
Tong Hao was helpless: "This is our own home, who can hear it?"
"Then stop saying things like that."
"Okay, okay, you saw that thing, what happened?"
"It's okay." Can you please stop reminding her? It's so embarrassing.
Is it really possible to run so long that your hair becomes messy?
Just now, when he saw her rushing in like a gust of wind, it was the first time that Tong Hao knew that his sister had this ability.
But seeing that she was so embarrassed that she seemed to want to hide herself, I knew that I couldn't get any information from her, so I could only analyze it myself.
My sister just went to her female classmate's house. Did she encounter something on the way? No, Tong Hao paused when he thought of a possibility.
Then he carefully looked at his sister who was covering her face.
She had told him before that the gay man she liked was her friend’s brother. Looking at her sister’s confused expression, Tong Hao had to think more. He tried to probe: “Sister, did you see the guy you liked before?”
Upon hearing this, Tong Xiuxiu’s body stiffened.
Seeing this, Tong Hao still had something to understand.
But after all, she was only 18 years old. No matter how smart she was, she couldn't understand her sister's dilemma clearly.
So, the young man who had never liked girls thought that his sister had been heartbroken, and consoled her caringly, "She is 27 or 28 years old, it is normal for her to get married, don't be sad."
get married?
Tong Xiuxiu put down her hand, and the corners of her mouth slowly straightened. Yes, if she really got married, or had a partner, then it would not matter whether she was ugly or not, or whether she was embarrassed or not. But... What if she didn't have one? Ah!!! In other words, why did she run away just now? Now I'm too embarrassed to go back and ask.
I will definitely not be able to sleep at night.
= I had no idea that the little sisters had been in a mess all night.
After seeing her husband and reuniting with her brothers, Chen Nongmo had a very fulfilling Sunday and had a good sleep.
The next day, I woke up refreshed and washed up, and breakfast was already on the table.
The schools of the fourth and fifth brothers are farther away, and the two of them had already set off twenty minutes ago.
Chen Nongmo picked up a piece of pickled radish and ate the porridge. She looked at her second brother who was waiting for her to have breakfast together and asked, "What do you do during the day?"
"Go find some wood and build a cabin for Xiao Hei."
“There are no tools at home.”
"It's okay, I can get it from a friend."
The second brother has been in J City for several years, so it is normal for him to have friends. Chen Nongmo did not ask more questions, but changed the subject: "What are you going to do with Wang Caihua?"
As long as he doesn't smile, Cao Liu is very clear about the intimidating effect of his appearance.
Chen Nongmo rolled his eyes and decided that when he saw Xiuxiu, he would tell her that his second brother was going to school.
Cao Liu had expected Yu Yu's reaction. It was the main reason why he told his sister about his plan, so that Tong Xiuxiu could be prepared in advance. "My brother-in-law has asked someone to check on Wang Caihua. If he has a criminal record, report him. If he doesn't have a criminal record and we wrongly accused him, I will go and apologize to him."
Chen Nongmo said that if you didn't say the word "apology" in a murderous tone, she would really believe it.
= I couldn’t sleep, so I got up early and spent two hours dressing up.
In the end, Tong Xiuxiu, who felt that her thoughts were too revealing, wore the most low-key outfit.
Then he rode his bike and waited at the door of Yu Yu's house.
Normally, if Yu Yu didn't come out, she would go knock on the door.
But this time, Tong Xiuxiu just waited quietly.
When the heavy vermilion door was opened, only Yu Yu and Aunt Tao came out.
While she breathed a sigh of relief, she couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.
But after all, she has not aged completely. After a night of adjustment, there is no change on Tong Xiuxiu's face.
The two of them rode their bikes and chatted along the way, mostly about study.
After riding more than half of the way, Chen Nongmo saw the little sister's face with a relaxed smile again, and then he seemed to remember something and asked: "By the way, Xiuxiu, did you tell Tong Hao about Wang Caihua appearing near your house yesterday?"
Tong Xiuxiu's smile froze. She had completely forgotten: "I'll tell you when I get home tonight."
Chen Nongmo did not ask why he did not tell us yesterday, but continued: "I have told my brothers, the fourth and fifth brothers have to go to school, the time is not right, and my second brother happened to have a holiday in the army, and he said he would come over to have lunch with us at noon."
"You mean Cao Liu?"
This girl's voice was almost whispered. Chen Nongmo tried to hold back his laughter, but his face was serious: "Yes, you know my second brother too. With that height and physique, if he stands there, Wang Caihua will never dare to have any bad thoughts again. He will be scared to death."
"Your second brother isn't fierce." After the words came out of her mouth, Tong Xiuxiu realized that she had to have lunch with Cao Liu at noon. Her eyes widened instantly, and the calmness she had managed to maintain was instantly broken. She asked in disbelief: "They. I. We are having lunch together at noon?"
"Poof" Chen Nongmo didn't want to laugh, but this girl was so slow-witted that it was funny. She couldn't hold back and burst out laughing.
Tong Xiuxiu's face instantly turned red, and she asked hesitantly, "What...what happened?"
"Nothing, I just think you're cute." I was so nervous that I stuttered.
Tong Xiuxiu's face turned even redder after being praised for no reason.
When they arrived at the school, the two of them rode the bikes to the parking spot, one in front and one behind.
After locking the car, they walked towards the classroom together.
On the way, Chen Nongmo, who noticed that the little sister still had a crush on his second brother, thought about it for a while, but couldn't help but hinted: "Xiu Xiu, if you don't mind, you can use my second brother as a fake partner to deceive Wang Caihua."
Hearing this, Tong Xiuxiu unconsciously tightened her schoolbag straps: "Isn't your second brother married?"
"Of course not, otherwise I wouldn't have asked him to come over. He's just like you, he hasn't had a single partner in all these years." Chen Nongmo felt that he had reminded him clearly enough, and he was just short of saying outright that my brother has a crush on you. Chen Nongmo looked at him expectantly.
Tong Xiuxiu, who hadn't noticed Yu Yu's gaze at all, smiled to herself upon hearing the news that Cao Liu was single, and felt like a flower had bloomed in her heart.
But her good mood didn't last for a few seconds.
Tong Xiuxiu began to pull at her tattered jacket, feeling grief-stricken and angry.
Why did she still wear the ugliest dress?
= Tong Xiuxiu became busy with class and forgot about Cao Liu's matter.
By the time she came back to her senses from two long classes, it was lunch time again.
She habitually returned to the classroom to get her lunch box and prepared to go to the cafeteria with Yu Yu.
"Wait a minute, we have to go to the door to pick up my second brother first." Chen Nongmo grabbed the girl who was heading straight to the cafeteria.
Tong Xiuxiu was annoyed: "I forgot everything."
"It's okay, as long as my brother remembers it. With his personality, he should have arrived a long time ago. Let's walk faster."
Hearing this, thinking about the temperature of minus seven or eight degrees Celsius today, Tong Xiuxiu, who was a little embarrassed, immediately quickened her pace.
Before I could take a few steps, the annoying voice rang out again:
"Student Tong Xiuxiu, aren't you going to the cafeteria to eat?" Wang Caihua seemed to have not noticed the other people at all. He stared at the beautiful girl opposite him more eagerly than ever before.
Ever since he intentionally looked through the political review materials of all his classmates at the counselor's place, he directly set his target on Tong Xiuxiu.
He is from Shanghai. His father is a doctor and his mother is the director of a steel plant.
Only someone with this kind of identity can barely be worthy of him.
In addition, he went to Tong Xiuxiu's house yesterday to get familiar with the area based on the information. It's great to be rich, two people can live in such a big house.
Unlike his family, more than 20 people were squeezed into a 30-square-meter room. He was tired of and hated the poor life.
But God obviously still favors him, and there is a shortcut to heaven right in front of him.
As long as he thought about marrying Tong Xiuxiu, he would be able to live the rich life he always dreamed of. How could Wang Caihua not be eager? In fact, his father was the director of a hospital, and his ancestors were scholars for generations. The Tong family had accumulated a large amount of wealth without showing off. What they showed to outsiders now was just the tip of the iceberg that the far-sighted elders of the Tong family were willing to expose.
Tong Xiuxiu had no idea why she was being targeted. Thinking of Cao Liu freezing in the cold wind, she became anxious and said without any politeness: "What does it have to do with you whether I go to dinner or not?"
She was really annoyed with Wang Caihua, who always made people uncomfortable but difficult to deal with.
Wang Caihua looked doting and tolerant: "Why are you so petty when everything is fine? I am just concerned about my classmates."
It's another ambiguous statement that attracts a lot of attention.
Now not only Tong Xiuxiu, but even Chen Nongmo beside her had a cold expression.
However, she did not rush to say anything, but instead gave her little sister a wink.
Tong Xiuxiu straightened her back and said loudly in front of the other students' inquiring eyes, "Student Wang, please respect yourself and stop pestering me. I've already told you that I have a girlfriend and I'm going to the school gate to pick her up. If you say something ambiguous again, I'll report you for being a hooligan!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone turned their inquiring and contemptuous eyes to Wang Caihua.
Wang Caihua could barely keep up the pretense on his face: "Stop kidding me, how could you possibly have a partner?"
Chen Nongmo interrupted at the right time: "Why not? Xiuxiu's boyfriend is my second brother, who is also a soldier."
Hearing this, Wang Caihua turned his gaze to Chen Nongmo.
In fact, at the beginning, he first looked up Chen Nongmo's information, after all, she was so beautiful.
It was so nice that Wang Caihua wouldn't mind even if she said she was married.
But later he found out that her parents were actually farmers in a remote mountainous area and their family conditions were not as good as his, so he never looked at her again.
In Wang Caihua's view, as long as you have money, you can get whatever you want, including women.
I have no idea that because of some uncertain factors, my father insisted on registering my household registration under Zong's father's name. Chen Nongmo, who escaped the disaster, pulled Xiuxiu and said, "Let's go. My second brother is still waiting."
Hearing this, Tong Xiuxiu, feeling that she had vented her anger, snorted coldly at the annoying guy, then pulled her friend away without looking back.
= “Xiu, you did a great job just now! That’s how you should fight back. We’re not afraid!” Chen Nongmo didn’t just praise with his words, he also gave a thumbs up with his actions.
Tong Xiuxiu also felt relieved, and snorted coldly: "Who stipulated that he is only allowed to disgust people? Let's see if he can't be pissed off to death this time!"
"That's right, let my second brother show his face later. With my brother's muscular body, he will be crushed to death."
Hearing this, Tong Xiuxiu couldn't help but blush again, remembering how she had just shamelessly said that Cao Liu was her boyfriend.
Although she had Yu Yu's encouragement, she knew best how much of it was her own little thoughts.
Perhaps, she had never given up on Cao Liu. Otherwise, why couldn't she be moved by the pursuit of excellent men over the years? The relief she thought she had was just what she thought.
The joy of youth was just suppressed in the deepest part of my heart.
Now, just a name, a figure, and a fake partner's identity are enough to rekindle the joy that she has suppressed for many years.
Tong Xiuxiu thought that for this long-awaited reunion, she might be able to be brave once more.
What if, what if it works this time? As he thought about it, the thoughts running wild in his mind became somewhat out of control.
So, when I saw a tall and strong man in a green military uniform standing at the school gate from afar.
Tong Xiuxiu got excited and blurted out, "Yuyu, I...I'll chase your second brother again, what do you think?"
After confirming that his second brother was about to chase someone, Chen Nongmo, who wanted to watch the show, stumbled. (End of this chapter)
