With Love and Time

Ji Guanxin had half a chicken wing in his mouth, and he paused clearly when he heard the words.

I was also a little surprised, so I couldn't help but look at my mother and said, "For Ji Guanxin, he is already going to the countryside when he comes to us."

Yecheng is the largest city in China, and Liangcheng doesn't know how many tier cities are. Yesterday, when I drove by the roadside, Ji Guanxin saw a popcorn stove. He asked me in confusion: "What is this stuff for?"

I asked: "Have you never eaten popcorn"

He replied to me: "There is a popcorn machine. I have lived for almost 30 years. I have never seen this thing before. I thought it was used for shooting."

Ah, I really want to use the popcorn stove to bounce him to death.

My mother said: "I wanted to visit your aunt's house a year ago. Our family sends a few representatives each year. This year it is our turn. Especially your aunt's health is not very good recently. If we were not at home, we should pay New Year’s greetings in advance."

My impression of my grand-aunt’s family still remains when she was eight aa nine years old in elementary school. I only remember that her family lived in the countryside below Liangcheng, not remote, but very poor, so poor that there was no Mao.

I asked: "You want to take Ji Guanxin with you"

My mother raised her eyebrows and said, "Then I'll take you away. Isn't it boring for Guan Xin to be alone in Liangcheng."

I said, "But Ji Guanxin can't stand the country at all."

I just finished my words, and Ji Guanxin, who put down his chicken wings, quickly said, "It's okay, Auntie, I can go."

My mother was also a little embarrassed when she laughed. She said aloud: "Zijing's aunt's home environment is not good, and the place where she lives is also bad. If you are not used to it, please don't go there. I will live with Zijin for two days. , I'm afraid you will be bored alone in Liangcheng."

Ji Guanxin said: "Auntie, I'm going, it just so happens that I haven't been to the country yet. Is there a Tukang in the northeast over there?"

It was my grandfather who answered Ji Guanxin on behalf of my mother. He replied with a smug look: "Yes, nothing else. There is a big one in Tukeng's house. It's okay to sleep four or five people. Then you can experience it."

Ji Guanxin smiled and said: "Okay, I listen to my grandpa, come back and tell you my personal feelings."

The matter was settled in a few words, but I didn't think it was reliable.

I asked my mother: "When shall we go?"

My mother said: "Tomorrow morning, we will get up early and go there, and stay there until we come back on the 7th. Isn't the 8th Chinese New Year."

I subconsciously looked back at the calendar. Today is only the 3rd, which means that we have to stay in the country for four full days with Ji Guanxin, a rich man who has never been to a second-tier city.

I stayed at my grandma’s house until ten o’clock in the evening. Ji Guanxin played a few chess games with my grandpa, watched a half episode of Indian TV series with my grandma, and played a few video games with my cousin. He even chatted with my aunt. Let me tell you which brand of skin care products are easy to use. I also said that when I buy it for my mother next time, I will give her a set.

That is, my uncle is not at home, otherwise, how can I fool my uncle because of the lack of security.

My dad came back from dinner and drove to pick us up.

I went downstairs with my mother and Ji Guanxin. When Ji Guanxin saw my dad, he smiled and said hello: "Uncle."

My dad also responded enthusiastically: "Guanxin, have you eaten tonight? I didn't eat it. Uncle invites you to have another meal."

Ji Guanxin smiled and said, "I am full, I ate a chicken myself."

My dad said, "Don't you go to the countryside with Zijin tomorrow. When you come back, my uncle will take you to a place where he specializes in stewing local chicken and it tastes very good."

"Okay, wait for me to come back."

The four of us were standing downstairs talking. We made an appointment to pick up Ji Guanxin at the Fulai Hotel at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning. After saying hello, I followed my parents and got in the car. Ji Guanxin said he would call me when he arrived.

Sitting in the passenger, I closed the door. My mother said at the back: "This child Guan Xin, after my observation these days, he really likes Zijin."

I turned my head slightly and said, "Can we not keep mentioning this matter?"

My mother said: “A person who can take care of your family meticulously, then it fully shows that he likes you very much. Ji Guanxin’s family is so rich and he is accustomed to raising him. He can come here to see you, even I won’t go home during the Chinese New Year. I am touched by this feeling. What is wrong with you?”

I casually said, "He went to the countryside to experience life."

My mother suddenly asked, "Do you still think of Luo Xiangdong in your heart?"

Suddenly hearing the three words Luo Xiangdong, my heart shook, and then I was upset and uncomfortable.

Without looking away, I turned my head to look out the window, a little impatient, a little unhappy, and a little lost. My lips opened, and I said in a deep voice, "Who misses him?"

There is an element of anger in this statement, but it is more of a fact. Before Ji Guanxin came, I really spent most of my day thinking about Luo Xiangdong. I couldn’t help thinking madly, wondering what he was doing, and wondering if I would regret it a little bit.

But since Ji Guanxin came to Liangcheng, all my time was occupied by him, and the time to think of Luo Xiangdong was really short of 70% to 80%.

My mother said: "At the beginning, I and your dad did not agree with you to stay in the night city, just because you were there alone, and no one would help you if anything happened. Luo Xiangdong really took care of you. When your milk was in the hospital, he did not help less, but someone like him is destined to be unsuitable for you, let alone our family."

"If I hadn’t been in contact with Ji Guanxin’s kid, I wouldn’t know that he was so approachable and he had no airs at all. It would be good for you and our family. If you say you want to get along with Ji Guanxin, I might agree, but Luo Xiangdong. It’s been so long since he’s been back. Did he call you?"

I didn't say a word, thinking that Luo Xiangdong forced me back, how could he call me

Seeing my silence, my mother said: "Don't think about Luo Xiangdong anymore, the past is over, you have to cherish the people in front of you. I think Ji Guanxin is a good boy."

I was upset, the most terrible thing was that I was really thinking, should I consider trying it with Ji Guanxin, what is this?

I wanted to stop my mom's mouth, so I asked my dad for help. I said, "Dad, just take care of my mom, she's devilish, and I'm talking about this every day."

My dad was silent for a few seconds, then suddenly said, "Zijin, this time dad also agrees with your mom."

I turned my head to look at him, frowning to express my displeasure.

My dad drove by himself and said without squinting: "Find someone who likes you, he will care about your thoughts, care about you, love you, and let you do everything. You said you like Luo Xiangdong, but you come back like this For a long time, he hasn't contacted you once, so in his heart, there is no you at all."

"My mother and I are both people here. You young people always say that there is a generation gap with us, but whoever has never been in love. At the beginning, I and your mother were married for more than half a year, because I still have feelings."

My mother continued: "If Luo Xiangdong really has you in his heart, no matter what great things happen, he won't let you come back alone, let alone hurt your heart. Looking at it this way, the child Guanxin I will be more I like it, he chased him from Yecheng to Liangcheng all the way, don’t say you can’t tell that he likes you in his heart"

I turned my head to look out the window, and the outline of my face was faintly reflected on the glass. I saw tears in my eyes, but I clenched my fists and resisted crying.

Many things are not that I don't understand, and it's not that I'm blind and can't see. Sometimes it's that I would rather deceive myself stupidly, or try to find excuses to deceive myself.

I often think in my heart, what would I do if I were Luo Xiangdong

I choose family or love

Maybe in the world of women, we can give up friendship and affection for love, but men are different.

I tried to understand Luo Xiangdong and also tried to understand his difficulties. Now after more than a month, my anger and sadness are enough to settle. Now I can try to forgive him, but the fact that he didn't choose me after all, he can't change it.

What I am sad is that I have to admit that Luo Xiangdong chose Kuang Yiyang instead of me.

Understand, but cannot accept.

The car drove all the way back to Century Garden, and when it was more than ten meters away from the gate of the community, I saw the taxi parked at the entrance of the street.

The license plate number is not the one from yesterday, but the parking position is exactly the same.

When my dad's car and the taxi were passing by, I tried to look at the people in the back seat of the car, but the light was too dark, and the speed was too fast, I finally saw nothing.

The car was parked in the garage, and our family of three walked upstairs. Standing on the second floor platform, I turned around and took a look. The back seat of the taxi was facing my current direction.

My mother walked ahead and said to my dad as she walked: "You said I don't know what's wrong in the past two days. I want to eat canned food every day. Yesterday I want to eat yellow peaches. Today I want to eat pineapple and hawthorn."

My dad said: "Just your appetite, don't always talk about why you can't lose weight."

As I walked, I suddenly stood still, looking at their backs and saying, "I will go down to the supermarket."

My parents turned and looked at me, and my dad said, "I'll go with you."

I said: "No, I'll buy you canned food after shopping, do you want other things?"

My dad said, "Then you can buy some radish sticks and pickles by the way. I will go home and cook noodles. I will drink outside at night without eating enough."

In response, I turned and went downstairs.

In fact, I just wanted to see if the taxi was still there. When I walked to the platform, I looked around, and sure enough, it was still parked there.

Stepping downstairs, I strode to the opposite supermarket, Yu Guang kept looking at the taxi, thinking if it drove away now, I would like to catch up and see clearly.

However, the taxi didn't move, and I didn't go to the back seat of the car. I just passed in front of the car to the opposite supermarket.

Standing in the supermarket, while choosing the food, I said to the male boss, "Uncle Wang, is the taxi outside waiting for someone?"

The male boss replied, "Hey, a person came from the car and came over to buy water ten minutes ago. He is a young man, tall and well dressed. He is the same person yesterday."
