The car stopped slowly on the slightly deserted street.
"Master, I'll give you the money."
In the car, Su Wu put away her mobile phone, picked up her backpack, opened the door and walked out of the car.
call!
A cold wind blew through,
Several milk tea cups beside the curb were blown around randomly.
On the streets on both sides, most of the shops are closed, their signs and doors are surrounded by darkness, but there are also a few late-night restaurants with their doors open.
Through the glass wall of the restaurant, one can still see tables of people inside looking for food late at night. Their laughter and noises burst out from the glass door of the restaurant, and were swept away by the cold spring breeze.
Drop - drop -
Su Wu carried her bag and walked silently on the street.
Suddenly there was a sound of car horns behind me.
He turned around and saw a white "Wuling Hongguang" approaching slowly and stopped beside him.
The car window rolls down,
The tough-headed young man poked his head out and looked at Su Wu with a faint smile on his face, but the enthusiasm in his eyes made the faint smile become warm: "Big nephew!"
When Su Wu saw the head peeking out of the car window, a smile appeared on his face.
But when he heard the other party's name, his face suddenly stiffened, and he scolded with a sullen face: "Get out of here!"
"Haha, my title is correct..."
"According to the seniority in the village, I am your uncle..."
"Okay, Xiaowu, let's stop making trouble. Hurry up and get in the car, let's go eat sheep and scorpion hotpot..."
The young man in the car window kept talking,
Even though he and Su Wu hadn't seen each other for two or three years, they even called each other during the New Year and holidays, and occasionally contacted each other via WeChat.
Even so, when the two met, they were like relatives reunited after a long separation, and they quickly chatted together without any disagreement.
This young man is Su Wu's childhood friend - Shen Hao.
Su Wu walked around to the other side of the car, opened the door and got in. As soon as he settled down in his seat, Shen Hao kept chattering next to him: "How is it? There is still a lot of competition in big cities, right?"
"You can't roll, so are you coming back to enjoy your retirement life early?"
"Let's take a look. The newly opened Sheep and Scorpion hotpot restaurant tastes really good. You'll know when you go there..."
Shen Hao didn't expect what Su Wu would answer him.
Talking to oneself is also fun.
He started the car again, and a soft music sounded in the car.
Su Wu relaxed her body, leaned on the backrest of the car, and said aloud: "Is everything okay at home? Are your parents in good health?"
"Hi!
Is it possible?
Now that the factory is closed, he keeps tormenting me all day long, asking me to quickly marry a wife and have children so that they can have grandchildren!" Shen Hao responded with a complaint.
"Your factory is closed?" Su Wu had never heard the news before. He frowned and asked, "Why is it closed? Isn't it profitable?"
"ah……"
"No, no, I said it wrong.
Now we are making other products. Didn't we make towels before? Now we are making raincoats..." Shen Hao responded to Su Wu's words.
The two chatted casually,
Listening to Shen Hao's reply, Su Wu felt something was wrong.
He was about to ask again, when he suddenly felt a smelly heat rushing out of his side from time to time, constantly brushing against his ears.
Su Wu turned his head and looked to the side and behind,
An 'East German Shepherd' with shiny black fur and piercing eyes stretched out its head and leaned against his seat. When it saw him looking at it, the majestic big dog suddenly let out a cry from its throat.
There was a '嘤嘤' sound.
It was as if he was coquettishly showing off to Su Wu.
Its mind rubbed against the side of Su Wu's face.
"Fat Tiger?" Looking at the dog, Su Wu's eyes were a little surprised and he called out.
The black dog immediately stuck out its tongue, licked happily, kept wagging its tail, rubbed its head hard against Su Wu's face, and wanted to lick him twice.
He quickly blocked the movement of 'Fat Tiger'.
Shen Hao next to him laughed: "I thought you guys haven't seen each other for several years, so I brought it here to meet its original owner.
How about it?
Fat Tiger is about to go into heat,
When the time comes, I will find a handsome husband for it to mate with.
I’ll give birth to a litter of puppies and leave one for you?”
Su Wu rubbed Fat Tiger's dog's head, hesitated for a moment after hearing this, shook his head and said, "Let's take a look first."
"How deserted is it when you live alone in that house?
It’s good to have a cat or dog as a companion.
Hey, are you looking for a girlfriend again now?" Shen Hao turned the steering wheel, drove into another street, and then asked Su Wu.
"I have no such plan." Su Wu shook his head.
After hearing his words, Shen Hao looked at him sideways and shook his head.
"So, sometimes people are inferior to dogs?
If you think raising cats and dogs is too troublesome, you can just raise a Myna or something.
It's quite interesting to teach it to talk. Downstairs from your house, the owner of the hardware store has a myna. It's quite interesting. I saw it when I gave you something."
“Can you talk about something normal?
Why are you here not only entertaining cats and dogs, but also walking birds and playing with hawks?" Su Wu patted the 'Fat Tiger' dog's head and let it play by itself, then turned to Shen Hao and asked, "I asked you to give more to your family.
Prepare some food, oil, salt, etc., are you ready?"
"Ready.
All kinds of rice, flour and grains add up to tens of thousands of kilograms, as well as oil, salt, etc., which is enough for our two families to eat for who knows how long, and they have been piled up in the warehouse of the factory."
"That's fine." Su Wu nodded.
Shen Hao then asked: "I was just about to ask you, but suddenly I was asked to prepare so much food, and also asked me to take part of my savings and exchange it for gold.
What's wrong?
Something big is going to happen, have you got the news?"
Facing Shen Hao's eyes, Su Wu was silent for a moment, nodded and said, "Yes."
"What big thing is going to happen?"
"Even if I tell you, you won't believe it."
"I trust you so much. I bought so much food and converted nearly half of my savings into gold in the bank. You actually think I can't trust you?
Look at it, I would say that you are suspicious by nature, right?"
"The trick has appeared.
I tell you, there are ghosts appearing everywhere, bringing great disasters, do you believe it?"
"..."
"Xiao Wu, something has happened. Since there is no way to undo it, just adapt to its changes and let it pass.
You are always holding these things in your heart, what should you do in the future?"
"..."
…
'Click'
As the light button is turned on, the room is instantly filled with light.
Passing through the entrance hall, Su Wu and Shen Hao came into view of the clean and warm living room.
The positions of all the furnishings here have been changed, but all the furniture and electrical appliances have been wiped until they are faintly reflective. It is obvious that someone has carefully cleaned this place while Su Wu was away.
Su Wu looked at this place where he had lived since he was seven or eight years old and spent countless hours here.
The furniture and furnishings are no longer in their familiar locations.
But they themselves carry a period of time,
It gave Su Wu a familiar yet unfamiliar feeling.
Behind him, Shen Hao put his backpack on the sofa and said loudly: "I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to bear seeing the familiar scene, so I hired someone to change the positions of all the furnishings.
Although this can't be said to be a change of environment, at least I won't think about the past too often."
Su Wu smiled when he heard this.
He turned to Shen Hao and said, "Thank you."
"Did I do something wrong?
Do you want to say thank you to me?" Shen Hao deliberately made a frightened expression.
"Thank you then."
Su Wu turned his head again.
He put his cell phone on the coffee table.
Shen Hao placed a bunch of keys next to his mobile phone and said: "Since you are back, I will also put the keys to each room for you here and return them to their original owners.
I put a thousand kilograms of grain, cooking oil and other things in the utility room for you.
It’s enough for you to eat for a while, and when you’re done I’ll bring it to you from the factory.”
"Okay." Su Wu nodded.
At this time, his mobile phone placed on the coffee table rang.
"Huh?" Shen Hao glanced at the flashing mobile phone screen, he suddenly laughed and picked up Su Wu's mobile phone, "Jiang Yingying sent you a message.
Xiaowu, who is Jiang Yingying?"
As he spoke, he handed the phone to Su Wu.
When Su Wu unlocked his phone, he stretched his neck and glanced at the screen of Su Wu's phone.
Unfortunately I didn't see anything.
——Su Wu glanced at him, and he retracted his neck angrily.
In the chat box of social software.
The message from Jiang Yingying emerged.
Jiang Yingying: "It's so late, haven't you arrived home yet? Can I call you?"
After reading the news, Su Wu thought for a while.
Reply: "I'm home. Don't call me.
busy right now."
Immediately lock the phone screen.
He also ignored the two subsequent messages Jiang Yingying sent.
Seeing Su Wu's appearance, Shen Hao immediately smacked his lips in boredom and said: "It's so late, you should have a good rest first.
I'll see you again at lunch tomorrow,
Let’s go eat the soy sauce bone on Tianxing Road!”
"OK."
Su Wu nodded.
"Should I let Fat Tiger stay with you for two days?" After hesitating, Shen Hao asked with some reluctance.
"No, no, I can't take care of it now.
You should take it with you." Su Wu refused after hearing this.
If so, the two of them say goodbye.
Su Wu watched Shen Hao leave the room. He sat on the sofa, took out his mobile phone, and replied to Jiang Yingying with two messages.
Then, he took out the items in his backpack one by one.
The magic staff is made of real gold and refined in fire.
The ‘gang hole’ with gradual cracks.
A large, poorly made stoneware bowl.
gold.
Some drinking water.
…
He walked into the study with a gang hole, a bowl, and a wand.
In the middle compartment of the bookcase, there is a photo facing the wall.
Su Wu turned the photo over and faced him.
In the photo frame, a middle-aged man who looks roughly like Su Wu is grinning and holding his wife.
Su Wu, a young man who was still a little green, stood behind the two of them and made a scissor hand gesture to the camera.
Su Wu gently rubbed the faces of her parents in the photo with her fingertips.
Finally, I couldn't help but feel a little sad.
The room is empty,
But it seems like parents are everywhere.
