Xiao Siya answered the phone while talking, answered the call a few times, and hung up the phone again.
She said to me again: "He has already called Li Zhi and will be here soon."
"Then let's go buy groceries quickly."
Xiao Siya paid the bill and we walked to a nearby Walmart.
After pushing the shopping cart, Xiao Siya told me that this was her first time shopping in a supermarket with a member of the opposite sex.
I smiled and asked her: "Don't you usually go to the supermarket?"
"Very few, and the ones I have are all by myself!"
I just chatted with her and walked around the supermarket. If she saw anything delicious or good-looking, she would just throw it in the shopping cart, no matter how much it was.
At first, I didn't care too much, but when I saw the shopping cart gradually filling up, I was shocked.
"I said……"
"What's wrong?"
I stared at the shopping carts piled up on a hill in front of me, and said with a wry smile: "Are you going to buy so many snacks? These are potato chips and spicy strips. Do you want to open a canteen?"
But she waved her hand indifferently and said: "It's okay, take it home and eat it slowly. It's so troublesome to go to the supermarket!"
"Is this how you usually buy things?"
"if not."
As she spoke, she pulled the shopping cart to the quick-frozen area and took several packages of quick-frozen dumplings and quick-frozen steaks from the large freezer...
I was really shocked. She was still putting all kinds of things in the shopping cart that she felt she could use.
It’s not that I care about money, it’s just that my attitude towards spending money is clear to you. I only buy things that are useful.
The shopping cart was quickly filled up and almost overflowing. She even went to get another shopping basket and continued loading it.
To be honest, her attitude is as if she wants to empty out the supermarket.
I finally couldn't help but said to her: "Sister Xiao, can we do it? I haven't even gone to buy groceries yet. The shopping cart is full. Do you still want to buy it?"
She smiled at me and said, "No, I'm just going to buy groceries with my basket."
Finally, we came to the vegetable section. I am the one who calls the shots here, because I will be the one cooking later.
I bought some home-cooked dishes and two crucian carp, planning to make a braised crucian carp. I also bought shrimp and pork.
Finally, Xiao Siya went to check out with satisfaction, and the cashier filled her with four large shopping bags.
Fortunately, most of them were snacks and not that heavy, so she and I each carried two bags and walked to the parking garage.
After returning to her home, she put the food in a separate place and put the frozen food in the refrigerator.
After doing all this, she took a deep breath, clapped her hands and said, "It's done, now it's enough for me to live for a while."
"No, don't tell me that you usually live on these things, right?"
"That's about right. I can't cook, and I'm tired of ordering takeout every day."
"Don't you have an aunt to cook for you?"
"Didn't I tell you that she only cooks dinner, so what should I do during the day?"
I smiled speechlessly: "Then you don't know how to let her live here, with breakfast and lunch all included?"
Xiao Siya shook her head and said, "I'm not used to others living in my house, and they don't just cook for me. She also takes care of other people's children during the day."
"What you said is contradictory. If you don't like others living in your home, then who am I?"
"You are no one else! You are my friend and the first friend I brought home."
"Then I'm very lucky!"
Xiao Siya chuckled, came to the kitchen again, looked at me who was washing the ingredients, and asked, "What are you doing for lunch? Do you need my help?"
"what will you do?"
Xiao Siya laughed and said, "No way."
"Then just stay here."
"That's so embarrassing!"
She paused, then suddenly, as if on a whim, she said, "How about I sing a song for you."
"Farewell, you'd better stay aside."
"Are you afraid that I'm disturbing you? Then let me play the piano for you. This won't disturb you, right?"
"You can also play the piano?" I looked at her in surprise.
"It's funny, just wait!"
No wonder I found a piano in her living room, and it was from Casio. Casio pianos are probably not cheap.
Xiao Siya sat in front of the piano, opened the cover, and started playing.
As soon as the prelude started playing, I was instantly transported into a comfortable environment.
This piece of music is beautiful, and the sound produced by the piano is also very ethereal.
I looked at Xiao Siya who was playing the piano in the living room. She was sitting upright in front of the piano, her serious look was very charming.
The sunlight outside just shone on the side of her face, as if outlining a golden halo around her.
Coupled with this beautiful and quiet piano music, it seems that the whole world has become quiet.
Although she usually looks carefree, sitting in front of the piano right now, she is indeed so charming.
After the whole song was played, Xiao Siya looked at me and asked, "How is it? Does it sound good?"
I smiled, nodded, and said sincerely: "It sounds great, what's the name of this piece?"
"Gu Bin's "Time is Quiet"."
No wonder the whole song gives people a state of relaxation, which really fits the name of this song.
My originally impetuous mood calmed down immediately, and I said to her again: "Can you play it again?"
"Ook!"
She was very happy and started playing again.
I discovered that as soon as she started playing the piano, she would become very engaged and charming.
The next scene was that I was busy in the kitchen, while Xiao Siya kept playing the piano.
The whole room was filled with the sound of her piano and the sound of the spatula when I was cooking.
On one side is life, on the other side is dream.
Very good, very good.
After playing several songs in a row, I finally said to her: "Take a rest for a while!"
"It's okay. If you want to listen, I can continue playing."
I smiled and said, "Let's take a rest. I'll be cooking soon and I can't hear the piano."
"Okay, if you want to hear it, just tell me."
As she said that, she came to the kitchen again and saw me peeling garlic, so she came over to me and said, "Let me peel it. I can do this."
"Stop it! You should use your fingers to play the piano."
"It's okay, I haven't played the piano for a long time."
She took the garlic from my hand and started peeling it.
I was stunned, looked at her and said, "You play so beautifully, why haven't you played for a long time?"
She suddenly smiled bitterly and said, "Did you know? My previous dream was to be a pianist, and my idol was Beethoven... But real life made me give up on my dream."
"Is it because of your father?" I asked.
She was silent for a while, but then said: "It doesn't matter. My dad actually hopes that I will continue to fulfill my dream. It's me. Seeing that my dad's health is getting worse day by day, and things in the company are making him more and more unable to do what he wants...
That day I made a decision to give up my music dream and return to my father to help him handle the company's affairs."
"Do you regret it?"
"I have no regrets, I have no regrets. I chose the path myself. No matter how difficult it is, I will keep going."
I don’t know why, but Xiao Siya in front of me seems to be a different person at this moment.
She is no longer so carefree and has become more feminine.
Suddenly, the sound of the doorbell came from outside the door.
Xiao Siya immediately stood up and said, "Maybe my brother and the others are here. I'll open the door."
