so be it

Chapter 41 Come on!Drink 1 cup!

Deng's mother has always been worried about the fact that the real body of the big tree has not been caught until now.And she guessed that the bookmaker sent tableware to Dashu, which aroused her unprecedented curiosity.Where the hell is it that makes the book so hidden?

Deng's mother was really anxious.

You know, what women who have nothing to do when they have nothing to do most like to think about things...

After thinking about it, Deng's mother put her eyes on Pine Cone, who was eating bananas and watching cartoons on the sofa.

——If you know Dashu's phone number... things will be much easier...

Deng's mother hugged the pine cone into her arms, raised her hand and squeezed her cheeks supported by the banana, and asked pleasantly, "Pine cone, have you seen the big tree recently?"

Song Guo, who was originally very interested in watching cartoons, heard about Dashu, and his face was full of disappointment: "No. Mom said Dashu is busy with work. I... I haven't seen Dashu for a long time!"

Deng's mother narrowed her eyes, with a calculating light in her eyes: "Oh? Didn't your mother go to Dashu's house the day before yesterday? Didn't she tell you?!"

Pinecone's eyes widened in an instant! --What!Mom went to Dashu's house? !She won't take me there? !Mom is too much!How can this be!I miss the big tree too...

Deng's mother saw that the time had come, and the pinecone was vulnerable at this time. She shook the arm holding the pinecone and said, "Look, mom won't tell you. And you don't know that the big tree phone number... I can't call Dashu by myself. Maybe your mother will secretly go to Dashu's house in the future without telling you~"

Seeing Song Guo pouted, Deng's mother smiled, and then said: "Grandma's silly Song Guo, you wouldn't ask Dashu for a phone number?"

Pinecone stretched her neck: "What are you doing here?"

"After you come, you can call Dashu by yourself. In this way, whenever you miss Dashu, you can call her right away. You don't have to wait for your mother to come back to call." Deng's mother followed the temptation .

"But...but..." Pine Cone tugged at the corner of her clothes. "I don't have my mother's phone..."

"Hehe, grandma has it. Grandma loves the pinecone so much. I can lend my grandma's mobile phone to the pinecone."

Pinecone's eyes lit up: "Really?!"

"Of course! When did grandma lie to you!" Deng's mother said swearingly.

"Grandma is so nice!" Song Guo put her arms around grandma's neck and kissed her sweetly.

Mother Deng smiled slyly...

At noon on Friday, Wang Yinyan received a text message from Dr. Deng.

"have you eaten?"

"Ah."

"What to eat?"

"Standard meal - three dishes: 1. Tomatoes (shy), eggs (faintly), vermicelli (hazy), mushrooms (seem to be there), zucchini (green and astringent), meatballs (content Unbelievable) "A combination of the items listed above - I really don't know what to name the dish" 2. Stir-fried shredded potatoes "It's really stir-fried - guaranteed not even chopped green onion" 3. Winter melon stew "The so-called The meat can only be proved by the yellow oil floating on the soup soaked in winter melon.』”

"Hehe, how's it going, do you want to have a big meal?"

"Oh, it's only been a few days. Are you so impatient to return the favor?"

"Well, I happen to be off work tomorrow. Song Guo is also clamoring to go to your house to play."

"Oh, okay."

"Then it's settled. I heard that there is a Hong Kong-style restaurant that just opened, and it's doing well. Let's go there at noon tomorrow."

"Okay. Tell me the address. I'll go straight there."

The environment of this newly opened restaurant is very good, and the reputation of its dishes is also good, so on weekends, it has to wait in line.

Fortunately, Shuzi had reserved a seat in advance.She and Song Guo arrived earlier and waited for the big tree at the door.

The big tree hadn't arrived yet, but it ended up running into Si Wenhui.

Si Wenhui and his colleagues came here for dinner.

"What a coincidence that you also come here to eat?" Si Wenhui warmly greeted Shubi when she saw him.

"Yeah. I have an appointment. Come, Song Guo, call Auntie." Shubi tugged Song Guo's little hand.

"Hello, Auntie." On the scene, Song Guo was still very polite.

"Ah, the baby's name is Song Guo now. We haven't seen each other for a long time~" Si Wenhui patted Song Guo's head, then pinched Song Guo's small face, and she looked up at the book with deep meaning.

Shu Bi didn't make a sound, but also touched Song Guo's head.Everything seems to be unspoken...

"Have you received your number plate? What's your number?" Si Wenhui's colleague asked from the side.

"Oh. I forgot to introduce, this is my colleague Xu Ming. This is my good friend, Deng Shuzhen."

"Hello." The man stretched out his right hand like a gentleman.Shu Bi didn't want to shake hands with him at all, there's no need to be so formal, besides, she doesn't want to be in contact with people.

The man's hand was still outstretched, and he was about to reach out helplessly.Who knows that there is someone who moves faster than her!

In an instant, that man's hand was stuffed with an empty bottle that was so cool! !

Hmm~? ! !

A baby voice sounded: "Uncle, over there." The little white finger pointed to a trash can in the distance...

"..."

"..."

"..."

Shu Bi twitched the corners of his mouth and suppressed his smile, thinking that it was indeed my caring little padded jacket, but he could only scold him: "Pine Cone! Why are you so impolite!" Then he turned around and said, " I reserved a seat in advance. Just go in when people come."

The man with the trash bottle stuffed in his hand smiled helplessly, bent over and tried to put on a kind gesture towards Song Guo, and said, "Uncle helped you throw away the bottle, do you have a reward for uncle?" I wanted to get close to this child, but Unexpectedly, he didn't pick up the quarrel, and turned his head away without speaking.Let him only increase the embarrassment.

Suddenly, the child's eyes lit up, he broke away from his mother's hand, and ran to a place.

A person from afar saw Pine Cone running towards him, and the corners of his mouth were split open, laughing so hard that he could see his teeth but not his eyes.She crouched/* and stretched out her arms to meet the onslaught of the pinecones.

Pinecone threw herself into the embrace of the person with eyes full of attachment, arched her little head coquettishly, and called softly and delicately: "Big tree~"

Wang Yanyan's tender heart instantly turned into smooth tender tofu again. She lovingly kissed the little guy in her arms, which made Song Guo squint her eyes and smiled in satisfaction, and then smacked Dashu's face.

Seeing the big tree approaching with the pine cone in his arms, Shubi felt a kind of warm silence for no reason, which made him feel at ease, and then changed his face from the indifference when he was facing a strange man just now, and replaced it with the one that could not be concealed. tenderness.

This tenderness made the man next to him bewildered...

Si Wenhui looked at the intimacy between Song Guo and an older child, and just wanted to turn around and ask Shuzi who this person was, but what she met was Shuzi's suspiciously happy smile...

What's happening here?

Shubi, who has always been indifferent to outsiders, only showed such an expression a long time ago, and it was only when facing that person that he could not help showing it.

Who is this big boy?relative?familiar

Maybe it's just because of the kid Pine Cone.

In this way, the book has really changed a lot.

Yes, if you think about many things, you will feel that there is no need to be serious before.

Wang Yanyan walked up to her with a pine cone in her arms, and Shujie introduced Wenhui and her colleagues to her.But when introducing Wang Yinyan, he said: "a big kid" and he brought it along.Wang Yanyan pursed her mouth—forget it, don't care about it.

"We're going in. Do you have to wait a long time?" Shuzi asked.

Si Wenhui looked at the number plates they got. "There are still 15 tables ahead. It seems that we will have to wait for a long time."

In this way, if Shubi and the others go in first, it seems a bit...but...

The man who has been ignored all the time said: "Is this good? Let's join the table. I will pay for this meal. I really don't want to wait outside for a long time." Moreover, he suddenly wanted to be with this woman who just showed a gentle expression Get in touch.

Shuzi looked at Dashu in embarrassment—it was agreed to treat someone to dinner, but now two people are mixed in for no reason...

Wang Yanyan gave her a look of relief, and she grinned: "I don't care."

"Ah, we haven't seen each other for a long time. Let's get together through Xu Ming's treat! Let's go!" Si Wenhui put his arms around Shubi's shoulders and walked inside.

Xu Ming quickly threw away the bottle in his hand and followed him.

After ordering, Shuzu got up and went to the bathroom.Song Guo also yelled and followed.

There were three people left, and Wang Yanyan didn't know them, so he could only lower his head and drink the tea that was served first.

Si Wenhui looked at the older child who bowed his head and said nothing, and suddenly remembered that when he went to Guihe for dinner, he met this person when he went out!No wonder it looks familiar.

"Hear the pine cone call you 'big tree'?"

"Uh-huh!"

"Are you and Shuzu...?"

Wang Yanyan shook his head: "Songuo and I are friends."

"...?!" Her answer caught Si Wenhui by surprise—Songuo's friend? !

After the older child finished answering, he ignored her question and didn't explain a word, then lowered his head to drink water again.Even if she didn't understand, she couldn't get to the bottom of it and ask how people became friends with Song Guo.The topic ends here.

"Mr. Si, what does your friend do?" the man asked suddenly.

"She's a doctor. Just came back from Japan not long ago."

"Oh? Study abroad?"

"That's right. She exchanged studies at a hospital in Hokkaido. Then she got a degree. In three years, she devoted herself to study and work." Si Wenhui said with pity.

"Her husband and children have been in China for the past three years?" Xu Ming slowly approached the question he wanted to ask.

"The child was brought up by her parents. Her... her partner... passed away..." Si Wenhui had a hard time talking here, "She still doesn't want to mention this matter."

"Oh! What a pity." Hearing this, the man deliberately expressed regret in his mouth, and there was some excitement that couldn't be concealed!

Si Wenhui is a good-looking woman with a high degree of education. It is said that she has a deep background in school, so she has a high vision. How many people with better conditions than herself have encountered a wall with her. She has self-knowledge, She is out of reach.Inviting her to dinner today is just to thank her for doing me a small favor before, and to use this as an excuse to get closer to the colleagues.The way things are done in school is the same as in society, and it may not be so clean.The key to having a good relationship is a colleague with a strong background. If there is anything to do in the future, you can also have a relationship.

Today came by surprise.

This cold-looking woman sounds like she has good conditions in all aspects, except for having a child!However, to be able to be best friends with a woman like Si Wenhui, one must have a good family background.If... I have been working in this city for so many years without any connections, I understand how difficult it is to take root here.If...you are married, it doesn't matter, if you don't tell me, not too many people know about it, but bringing a child...it's really troublesome!

Wang Yanyan, who kept her head down, did not plug her ears, so she heard Si Wenhui's words clearly.

It turned out to be the case.

She squeezed the cup in her hand tightly, remembering the red eye sockets when they met for the first time in the supermarket, when Song Guo was crying for her father.For no reason, I began to feel distressed.

"Then she is taking care of the baby alone now?"

"No. It's usually brought by her parents. I'm busy with work. I can't take care of the children." Si Wenhui gradually felt that Xu Ming was asking too much.

"That's right. It's very troublesome to bring a child. If you want to find another partner in the future, it will not be convenient to have a child." Xu Ming casually revealed his thoughts.

Si Wenhui frowned and remained silent, slightly dissatisfied with the meaning revealed in Xu Ming's words.

Wang Yanyan was a little annoyed.What do you mean children are troublesome!Where did you come from? !Is it your turn to mind the kids!I still think my pine cones are a burden!who do you think You Are!

"Your friend doesn't have a date yet, right?" The man seemed to want to ask all the questions he wanted to ask before Shubi came back.

Before Si Wenhui could open her mouth, she heard a "bang". The older child threw the teacup heavily on the table, spilling half of the tea in it, but she didn't even look at it, and turned her head to face out of the window. .

Si Wenhui was also unwilling to answer Xu Ming's obviously intentional questions, coughed lightly, stopped talking, and bowed her head to drink tea.

It was only then that Xu Ming realized that it was a bit impolite to ask these questions in front of the children opposite.I am too impatient.In fact, with Si Wenhui here, there is still a chance in the future, so why be so hasty.Why!It would be nice to have no kids!

Wang Yanyan couldn't suppress the anger in his heart no matter what!I was a little sad when I heard that Dr. Deng's partner had passed away, but this man is still asking here and there, and anyone with a bit of intelligence can tell that his purpose is not simple!The most exasperating thing is that he even minds that the pine cone is a drag bottle!You are that onion!

The more Wang Yanyan thought about it, the more blocked he became, and the darker his face became.

After Shuqi came back, he felt sensitively that the atmosphere was not right.Dashu seems very unhappy?What did they say when they left?She asked the friend opposite with her eyes.Si Wenhui just smiled nonchalantly and didn't respond.

The dishes came up one after another, and Shuzhi noticed that this man suddenly became very enthusiastic, to be precise, there was some obvious hospitality.Not only did he frequently invite her to eat, but he also talked about his life in a vague way, as if he was introducing himself comprehensively, and occasionally asked her about her work and family background, which made the book very disgusted, so Coping with one or the other.

But the other party didn't have the consciousness to stop.

Si Wenhui felt very ashamed at the side. She didn't know Xu Ming very well, and felt that he didn't like to flatter her like those people. She thought he was a pretty good person, and she could be a friend even if she had no other ideas.If he knew that he was such a person, no matter how long he waited outside, he would not say that he would not come to be with Shu Bi.This person is really unrecognizable!

The waiter in the restaurant came to refill the tea, but Wang Yanyan, who was sitting in the innermost seat, got up suddenly, stretched his arms, and snatched the teapot.

She politely wanted to add water to Xu Ming who was diagonally opposite.But the teapot just full of water is very heavy.Her outstretched arms seemed a little uncontrollable, and tremblingly, she managed to fill the other party with a full glass of water. When the teapot was about to be retracted, it shook... slipped!The teapot bumped into the cup that had just been filled with water...
