I sighed and swept the Lego fragments to the side to make room for walking.
Chuyi cried until the sky turned dark, and his tears flowed down like a river.
I was afraid that the neighbors would complain about it, so I suppressed the anger in my chest, coaxed him for a long time, and promised to buy him ice cream. Only then did he stop crying.
“I want to eat ice cream now!” He pushed his luck and made a request.
I nodded my head in a hurry. I really couldn’t afford to offend children.
There was a bustling pedestrian street outside the community with shops on both sides. There must be an ice cream parlor. I held Chuyi’s hand and went downstairs to buy ice cream.
The ice cream parlor wasn’t big, but there were many customers. We found a seat by the window and ordered a cup of ice cream.
Chuyi’s sharp eyes caught sight of the desserts on the glass counter. He immediately ran over excitedly and pointed at the dessert with bright eyes.
I had no choice but to order a pile of refreshments under his command. Yogurt, chestnut cake, walnut cream…
Soon, the waiter served the dessert. Chuyi’s eyes lit up, and he immediately buried his face into the food, unable to extricate herself.
There was a vase on the small table with a bright rose in it. Looking at the beautiful flowers, my thoughts flew back to the past.
My sixth-year wedding with Lang Xiaojun was held in the banquet hall of the International Hotel.
The celebration was very grand, and the banquet hall was decorated with a large number of red roses. The fragrance of the flowers assailed the nose and refreshed the heart.
I happily held onto Lang Xiaojun’s arm, toasting everyone in turn and accepting everyone’s blessings.
Guo Yayi smiled as she raised her glass and downed it in one go. The diamond pendant on her ear glowed as her head swayed.
I recognized it. It was a pair of diamond earrings that Lang Xiaojun had given me as an anniversary gift. Even the style was the same.
I suddenly had an ominous premonition.
Now that I thought about it, they might have had an unusual relationship back then.
Finally, Chuyi was full and burped.
“Bill please!” I called out to the shop assistant.
She quickly brought the bill over, “Madam, the total is 99 Yuan!”
I picked up the bill and looked at it, 28 Yuan for a box of yogurt, 46 Yuan for two chestnut cakes, and 25 Yuan for a box of sour plum shaved ice!
After paying the bill, I thought to myself, “I can’t just sit around and do nothing. I should find a job as soon as possible.”
“Mom, can you help me assemble the Lego?” He asked.
This task was a little difficult.
With so many parts, it was too complicated.
However, I couldn’t just leave the Lego on the ground, so I had to reluctantly agree to Chuyi’s request.
There was a real estate agency next to the ice cream parlor.
Thinking that I can’t always stay at my cousin’s house, I strolled in.
A lady with the surname Wu received us, “Do you want to rent a place or rent out your place?”
“I’m renting a place. ‘
Big Sister Wu sized me up and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. She then smiled and said, “Ma’am, you look like you’re here to rent out a house.”
She had probably trained her fiery eyes.
“Sister Wu, you really know how to joke. What’s the price of a two-bedroom apartment now?”
“It depends on whether the community is old or new and the location. The better ones cost around 3500 Yuan, and the worse ones cost around 3000 Yuan. ” Big Sister Wu was very experienced in her work and quoted a price very quickly.
I decided to lower the price, “Can you make it cheaper?”
“The price is clearly stated and can’t be negotiated,” Big Sister Wu hesitated for a moment and then said, “I have an apartment with staircases, and the price is quite suitable. It’s just that it’s a little high up, it’s on the Sixth floor.
The current market was full of elevator-equipped ones. If it was a staircase one, the buildings would be at least ten years old, so it should be an old community.
“How much is it every month?”
“I can haggle the price for this house. I think you can get it for 2500 Yuan.” Big sis Wu explained, “The neighborhood is a little old, but the surrounding facilities are complete. There are supermarkets, hospitals, and vegetable markets. It is very convenient.’ I was a little tempted. So be it, I’ll just treat it as exercise.
We’ve made an appointment to look for the house together tomorrow.
When I got home, my first task was still to build the Lego. This was because these miscellaneous items really took up too much space.
I took out the Lego model blueprint and studied it carefully for a long time before I finally found a way, “Base first!”
Following the instructions, I first picked out the components of the base. Chuyi sat on the ground obediently and watched me choose one by one.
An hour passed, two hours passed… The light in the room grew dimmer and dimmer. After an afternoon of hard work, the base was finally put together.
It was too complicated!
I rubbed my sore eyes and glanced at the time. Seven o’clock! No wonder the sky had darkened.
Chuyi’s stomach rumbled. “Are you hungry?”
He nodded his head.
I remembered that there was a self-heating hot pot in the cupboard and discussed with him,
“Shall we have hotpot?”
“Hotpot?” His eyes lit up, probably thinking that it was the copper hot pot in the restaurant.
“Self-heating hotpot.” I took it out from the cupboard and showed it to him, “It’s the thousand-layered tripeo,
As long as there was meat to eat, Chuyi was still very happy, so he readily agreed.
I added cold water to the self-heating hotpot and soaked it in the heating pack. I quickly covered it with the lid. Dozens of seconds later, steam started to rise.
My phone beeped. I opened it and saw that there was no saved name and the profile picture was unfamiliar, “Have you eaten?”
Who was this?
I never add strangers.
Just as he was feeling puzzled, the other party sent another message. I’m Luo Xingye.
So it was him?
I immediately made a voice call, and he picked up very quickly.
“When did you add my WeChat? How come I didn’t know about it?” My tone wasn’t friendly as I asked directly.
“This question,” He mumbled, “Is it important?”
As a famous lawyer, he had used someone else’s phone without permission. He didn’t realize his mistake and still asked if this question was important? Do you have any bottom line or legal knowledge?
“Of course it’s important!” I was very annoyed.
Come to think of it, the only time he could have touched my phone was that night when he came to my house to eat spinach noodles while I fell asleep on the sofa.
It was also that day that I complained to my cousin, suspecting that he was a lackey of that Lang guy!
I’m finished!
Did he see what I said?
I suddenly in a bad mood, as if I had been stripped naked.
He asked unhurriedly, “What are you panicking for? Are you feeling guilty? Could it be that there’s some unspeakable secret in your phone?”
“I didn’t!” I shouted in exasperation, “Luo Xingye, didn’t you study law? Why did you knowingly break the law?”
He chuckled on the other end of the phone and quibbled, “I’m your lawyer, you shouldn’t hide anything from me. You have to trust me100%.”
Trust you, my ass!
It was pure nonsense!
What right does he have to go through my phone!
Just because he was a lawyer?
Heh, he really knew how to exonerate himself.
