The sales lady took them to see the house. The design of the room was very reasonable, and the floors were all well-facing. Even Du Xiaosu was heart-stricken even after seeing it, not to mention Zou Siqi. Who knows the last price, they couldn't help but take a breath. The sales lady said: "The internal purchase is very cost-effective. It's a hundred thousand yuan cheaper."
Zou Siqi fainted on the way back: "Hey, I can't buy a bathroom with a salary for a year."
Du Xiaosu also said: "The property market is really crazy, no wonder our performance is rising steadily, and our plans are soft."
Zou Siqi said: "It will definitely continue to rise. It has been rising from last year to this year. The location of this property is so good. I didn't expect that I couldn't even pay the down payment. It made you busy."
Du Xiaosu comforted her: "It doesn't matter, it's the same if you buy it in two years."
Zou Siqi is very sorry: "It will rise again in two years, I still can't afford it." Suddenly he said, "Xiaosu, maybe you can buy it, you are going to marry Dr. Shao anyway, it is better to buy it late than early. This house is really good."
Du Xiaosu moved in his heart and hesitated.
After I went back, I told Shao Zhenrong. Who knows he also said: "Anyway, I will buy it sooner or later, or I will buy it."
Du Xiaosu said: "But it's so expensive. Although the location is good and the room type is good, it is so expensive." Now she regrets that she is usually lavish. Although she has a little savings, it is really a drop in the bucket.
Shao Zhenrong said: "It doesn't matter. When I was abroad, I had a little money. I bought the stocks and put them in the London stock market. I just cashed out. It should be enough to pay for the house." After a pause, he stretched out his hand. Hold her hand, "Xiaosu, I want to have a home for both of us."
In the home of the two of them, Du Xiaosu felt his chest warm when he thought about it. I have been renting a house for the past two years. Although it is considered comfortable, the furniture is not as good as it is. In this huge city, there is a huge crowd, and it feels a little wandering. His words made her feel at ease and comfort, their home is so tempting! She also made up her mind to buy!
Shao Zhenrong was too busy, and finally took time to visit the house with her.
The house is not big, but it is enough. Both bedrooms face south, with large bay windows facing the blue sky and white clouds of the city. If you bend down and lower your head, you can just see the small garden underneath.
The sales lady said with a smile, "Now this study room can be used as a baby room in the future. This apartment type is most suitable for young couples."
Shao Zhenrong said to Du Xiaosu: "Why don't you paint the white wall first, then put the bookshelf, and when it is changed to a baby room, then change to a softer wallpaper?" Du Xiaosu was a bit funny, really a bit Stupid, thinking of this so early. And he took her by the hand, and the two of them were turning around in the house. In fact, they were just empty walls on all sides, smeared with rough cement, and the wind blew in from the living room window. Du Xiaosu felt that she was also quite stupid, because she also thought that she must put on drawn curtains when she moved in, and then watched the sun light on the floor, reflecting the small patterns on the fine yarn.
In her and his home, both of them couldn't help but smile.
Back to the sales department, I am basically satisfied. But the total price was so high, Du Xiaosu looked at the number and couldn't help asking him: "Should we think about it again?"
"No need, as long as you like it. Besides, I like it very much."
Because it is an internal purchase, not only the unit price is discounted, but Shao Zhenrong is going to pay it off in a lump sum. The sales lady is so happy that Du Xiaosu still remembers the counter-offer, so the sales lady asks the manager to call them again One fold. Du Xiaosu spent so much money for the first time in his life. Seeing Shao Zhenrong swiping his card, there were a large stack of documents to be signed. The two of them sat in the VIP room to sign one by one. The room was quiet. Du Xiaosu watched Shao Zhenrong lower his head and fill it out carefully. The form, write the names of two people, very smooth handwriting: Du Xiaosu, Shao Zhenrong...
The sales lady took the ID cards and household registration books of the two of them to make copies, but it took a long time to come back. He completed the forms, turned his face to look at her and smiled: "The names of our two were written together for the first time."
He didn't ask her, so he wrote her name as the host.
Du Xiaosu put his arms around his neck from behind, looked at his signature, and just asked: "Aren't you afraid that I would cheat and swindle and run away?"
He squeezed her cheek affectionately: "I just want to use this house to trap you and see where else you can go?"
On the rare Spring Festival holiday, even the hospital can rest. Because Shao Zhenrong's family is not in the city, the department took special care of him and did not schedule him on duty. He accompanies Du Xiaosu home together. During the peak of the Spring Festival travel season, there was a snow disaster. The air tickets were not only full price but also in short supply. Shao Zhenrong went to Du's house for the first time, and Du Maokai and his wife went to the airport to pick them up.
Back to his parents, Du Xiaosu was like a child, chattering non-stop: "Shao Zhenrong is really amazing. The stocks he bought have doubled, otherwise the house will not be paid for in full."
Mother Du just complained: "On the phone, I said, Mom and Dad will help you a little bit, but you will not die or die."
"Mom!" Du Xiaosu grabbed his mother by the waist, "We have money, Zhenrong pays for the house, and I have the money on hand to buy furniture and appliances. Don’t worry about us. He makes a lot of money, let’s talk about me. Also earn a lot."
Mama Du intimately reprimanded: "The tail is up to the sky, just your big hands, no matter how much you earn, it will not be enough for you."
Du Xiaosu doesn't matter: "Shao Zhenrong said he will support me."
So righteous and confident, just because I love him, so calm.
The Du’s house is very spacious. Mother Du cleaned up the guest room herself a few days earlier, and she took care of Shao Zhenrong. Everything you eat and what you need, Du Xiaosu said, "Mom, you are partial!" /
Actually, Shao Zhenrong is the most partial to herself.
Moving out all the photo albums and albums from childhood to age, he smiled and said, "So you have been so show-off since childhood." There are many and many photos of her, and her parents love her so much, so since childhood, he gave She took countless photos, and the big and small long square photo albums set up a whole bed.
From small babies, to babbles, to pigtails in navy skirts, performances in kindergartens, "six 1" activities in elementary schools, and singing competitions in middle schools...
The traces of growth, frame by frame, he liked it very much, and looked at it again.
She told him one by one, when she took this one and what age was that one. The two people huddled together like children, sitting cross-legged side by side, surrounded by photos, piles of pictures. He listened to her whispering, and he only liked it, so good, the past time, past her, little by little, tell him. And he knew that she would always be by his side in the future.
Finally, she threw down the album and asked him with a smile, "So much, is it annoying to watch?" He circled her into his arms and said to her, "No, I still don't think so. Xiaosu, wait. We will have a child in the future and we will take one photo for him every day."
She chuckled: "How many pictures do you have to take?"
He said: "Three hundred and sixty-five sheets a year, not too much."
Mother Du knocked on the door and told them to go out to eat the fruit. She washed the grapes and cut the cantaloupe. She sliced the starfruit into five-star pieces and placed them in the fruit plate. She smiled and looked at the two young men. eat. Du Xiaosu saw that there were pears in the fruit plate and knew that Shao Zhenrong liked it, so he picked it up and cut one for him.
Only pears. For so many years at home, Mama Du has never cut them in advance. When the family wants to eat them, they will cut them by themselves.
"Because you will never be separated." Du Xiaosu looked at Shao Zhenrong with bright eyes and told him this.
Two days later, the two are going back to Beijing together to meet Shao Zhenrong's parents.
Mother Du packed up the luggage for Du Xiaosu, prepared gifts, and told her daughter: "Be sensible, Xiao Shao loves you, so you must respect your parents who respect and love him, let them feel at ease and let them like you." /
Du Xiaosu felt a little nervous: "Mom, what if they don't like me?"
"No, Xiao Shao's tutor is very good, indicating that his parents are very educated people, as long as you really love Xiao Shao, how can they not like you?"
Du Xiaosu was a little nervous, because this was the first time she had to face the family of her loved one. When she arrived at the airport, waiting for the boarding time, she grabbed Shao Zhenrong and asked, "What do uncles and aunts like? , What do they dislike? Would you please give me a note?"
Shao Zhenrong smiled and scratched her nose: "They like me the most, so ah, they will like you too."
After the long vacation ended and went to work, Zou Siqi knew that she had been to Beijing, so she asked: "How is it? How did it feel to meet your in-laws for the first time?"
Du Xiaosu was taken aback, and then said: "I was a little nervous at first, but later..."
Zou Siqi smiled straightly: "Are you still nervous? Don't you often brag that your skin is thicker than copper walls and iron walls?"
Du Xiaosu looked a little dazed, Zou Siqi only found it funny: "It was like this the first time I saw my in-laws. When I went to Fujian with my first love boyfriend, on the train, my heart thumped and thumped all night. By the way, how is their family? But when you look at Xiao Shao, you know that his parents must be nice and reasonable, and they must be nice to you, right?"
Du Xiaosu gave an "um" and said, "It's kind to me."
Actually, when he was waiting at the airport, he kept talking and stopped. She saw that he was a bit wrong, and finally he finally said: "Xiaosu, I have something to tell you." He held her hand, "Just , Don’t be angry."
She bit her lip: "Do you have a wife in Beijing?"
He was startled, and immediately couldn't help laughing: "Where did you think of it?"
She glanced at him aggrievedly: "Then what are you doing with this expression?"
He said, "My father is..." After hesitating for a while, he said a name.
Du Xiaosu was stunned for a while, holding the last glimmer of hope and asked: "Same name and last name?"
He said: "No."
She said: "I don't believe it, your surname is Shao, how could he be his son? Besides, you work in the hospital before driving a Buick Regal." She looked a little funny, "Anyway, you lied to me. Wrong?"
He said: "Xiaosu, it's not what you think. My last name is Shao and my mother's last name. My parents are very open-minded, and our family is just like other people's."
"How could it be the same?" Her cheeks were red and her eyes were red. "Why didn't you tell me earlier? I never thought you would lie to me."
"Xiaosu," he whispered, "I'm not trying to lie to you, don't say that."
The two people froze there, and the announcement started to board the plane. He said: "Xiaosu, I'm sorry, I didn't tell you at first, but I was afraid that you would have a prejudice against me. In that case, we would not even have the opportunity to socialize. I didn’t tell you later, because I thought you didn’t value those things. If you get angry, you can scold me, OK?"
Du Xiaosu said: "What am I scolding you for, but how can you lie to me like this?"
He said: "Xiaosu, you said you love me, no matter who I am, you love me, right? You never told me that your father is the president because you think your father's job , It doesn’t matter what we are dating at all. Because I love you, not your parents. Similarly, you love me, not my parents. What do you care about?"
She didn't know, there was a mess in her mind, it was all paste, she didn't know anything.
He took her by the hand and walked towards the boarding gate, she was about to cry in a hurry: "Can we not go?"
"No." He held her hand tightly, "Xiaosu, think about it, they are just my parents. You never asked about my family environment, just like you never show off your own Family environment. You don’t value these. You just love me, and the two of us have nothing to do with the others."
The broadcast was urging boarding. Everyone passed by them with their luggage, and some people looked at them curiously, as if they were a awkward couple.
She finally calmed down slowly, because his palms were dry and warm, and his eyes were unwavering. She gradually felt at ease, because he was actually more nervous and caring than her. He was only worried that she would not accept it, and only repeatedly said: "Xiaosu, I'm sorry."
She is heartbroken, not afraid, because she loves him.
After two hours of flying, she was still confused on the plane. She always felt that she must have been awake, so she had a funny dream, otherwise Shao Zhenrong was joking with her. But his appearance was serious, and his eyes faintly worried, he kept holding her hand tightly, as if afraid that she would run away.
She really wanted to run away, if not on a plane.
As a result, she was really relieved to see Shao Zhenrong's parents. Because the two elders are very kind and approachable, it can be seen that they really like her and accept her because Shao Zhenrong loves her. They are his parents, like all parents in the world, they only wish their children happy.
"I have met the parents, this is settled." Zou Siqi dragged his voice and asked, "When do you plan to get married?"
She lowered her eyes: "His brother..." She was a little startled and couldn't help but stop.
Zou Siqi was surprised: "Does he still have a brother?"
"Well, he is the third child in the family."
Zou Siqi gave a "yo" and said, "Then their family is quite complicated. Will you be able to deal with a family in the future?"
Actually, Shao Zhenrong told her: "Eldest brother and sister-in-law are all out of town. They are busy at work and rarely come back. Second brother does not come back often."
He also showed her all the photo albums of his childhood, but his photos are not as many as hers, there are only a few of them, and few photos taken with his parents. He said: "They are very busy at work. I was brought up by mother Zhao, the nanny."
There is a group photo of two children, young children about the same age, both of them ate ice cream on their faces and smiled like two sunflowers. The tall little boy should be him. Another little girl is a little shorter than him. She wears a floral dress, has short hair like a boy, has eyes exactly like him, and has dimples on her lips when she smiles.
She knew that he did not have a sister, so she asked: "This is you and your cousin?"
He scratched his hair: "No, this is my second brother." Then he pointed to the one in the floral dress a little awkwardly, "This is me."
She couldn't help but "chitch" and he said grimly: "There are three boys in our family. My second brother always wanted a little sister, so he forced me to dress up as a girl. He is older than me, since I was young Just stick to him and listen to him."
The relationship between their brothers is very good, only the photos after they grow up, he said: "The eldest brother and the second brother do not like to take pictures when they grow up, so they rarely take photos with me."
"When I was a child, I was in poor health. I had injections and medicine all day long. The children in the yard didn’t like to play with me and called me sick. My second brother was so majestic at that time. He was the king of children in the compound. At the last stop, he said:'Whoever of you doesn't play with Zhenrong, I won't play with him.'" He smiled and recalled those childhood days, "My second brother is only two years older than me, but he defends me everywhere. At the time when I was filling my volunteers for the college entrance examination, I had to study medicine and I had to apply to a school in another place. My father was firmly opposed to it. I lost my temper. My mother’s advice was useless. I was angry with my family and had a quarrel for many days. Dad talk, let me go to Fudan University. The three of us were brought up by Mama Zhao. Mama Zhao said that in our house, it is not my parents but my second brother who loves me the most. The eldest brother and sister-in-law can’t come back this time. You can see my second brother tomorrow."
The next day he took her to visit Mother Zhao. Mother Zhao lives in a courtyard deep in the hutong. The yard is not big, but very quiet. There are two jujube trees planted in the patio, which must be covered with greenery in summer. Du Xiaosu rarely sees such a house, the paper is very clean, the old furniture also looks warm, as if there is a mark of time. Mother Zhao's two children are now abroad, and only the old couple live alone, so Mother Zhao was so happy to see her and Shao Zhenrong, she took her hand and refused to let it go. Du Xiaosu felt warm, because Zhao's mother regarded Shao Zhenrong as her own son, so she liked her so much.
"Sit down, Zhenrong, you sit with Xiaosu, have a snack, and I will go down to the kitchen to cook. Your second brother will come after a while, and today Mama Zhao will cook your favorite dish. Xiaosu, I will stew a pot of good chicken soup for you. You are too skinny. You have to make up for it."
The heating in the room is sufficient. Xiaosu took off his coat and only wore a sweater. Feeling a little hot, he walked to the wall and looked at the pictures on the wall. They are all old-fashioned frames, and some are even black and white. There is a photo of Zhao’s mother with three children and two other elderly people. She felt familiar. After looking at it for a long time, she was not sure, so she turned her head and shouted " Zhenrong".
He came over to look at the photos with her, and she asked curiously: "This is..."
Shao Zhenrong said "Oh" and explained: "This is my grandpa and grandma. Zhao's mother has taken us with us since we were young. When we were young, we often lived with grandpa."
So she was very heartless and happy again: "Hey, is there any gossip to talk about? Excavate the secret history of celebrities!"
He laughed out loud and took her shoulders: "Just you will be thinking about it, and seeing my brother back, don't talk nonsense."
Shao Zhenrong's second brother is as tall and upright as him, and looks very young, but his temperament is calm and restrained, but he does not lose his edge. In fact, the two brothers resembled a little bit, especially the eyes, the double eyelids with deep marks, and their eyes as deep as the water under the stars.
He shook hands with her in a low voice: "Miss Du, right? I am Lei Yuzheng, Zhenrong's second brother."
His hands are very cold, like a cold line of ice, running along the fingertips to the human heart, making people feel cold. She yelled very quietly: "Second brother."
Shao Zhenrong thought she was shy, so he put his arms around her shoulders and just chuckled.
And his eyebrows are still sharp, even his smile is as if there is nothing. Du Xiaosu's heart was beating very fast, a little bit uncertain, as if he was stunned when he went downstairs. She felt like a pot of porridge in her heart, and she recognized it face to face. The last time she was outside the airport, she didn't think of it, and there were still those photos of Xu You in her mobile phone. It turns out that he is Shao Zhenrong's elder brother, no wonder Shao Zhenrong would follow up when he saw it that day. These are all minor details, but the most important thing, she thought desperately, but she always felt empty in her heart, unable to grasp anything.
Both men took off their suits and jackets and sat around the table, suddenly looking like big boys, waiting obediently for dinner. Lei Yuzheng really loves this younger brother. He tells him some trivial matters and asks about his work. He doesn't neglect Du Xiaosu. He occasionally turns around casually and tells her about Shao Zhenrong's childhood jokes. Du Xiaosu liked this atmosphere very much, as if he was going home, but tonight he was always fidgeting. Mother Zhao’s craftsmanship is very good, the dishes she cooks are delicious, she soaks good plum wine, Lei Yuzheng and Shao Zhenrong both pour the wine. Mother Zhao rubbed her hair and smiled: "Xiaosu, eat more food. When I return to Beijing, I will ask Zhenrong to bring you to dinner."
