At night, the cold wind blows like a knife, causing pain on the face, and the air is also very dry.
Li Mu, who has never used skin care products such as cream or facial cleanser, has the same skin as in previous years. It has become very rough just after entering the cold winter months, and some dead skin has fallen off on his face. Compared with last year, it seems to be a bit worse this year.
It’s not like Li Mu couldn’t bear to spend the money on the cream.
It's just that it's troublesome, and a layer of something on his face makes him feel uncomfortable, as if his face is smeared with cream.
Soaked for a while.
Li Mu used the bath towel he brought to rub his son's back.
The little guy has thin skin and tender flesh, but he can't stand the rough back rub technique of the master, so his father, Li Mu, needs to do it himself every time.
The father and son took a quick shower.
It only takes about half an hour from entering Yaochi to drying your hair.
"Of course, how about we go back first?"
Li Mu sat on the sofa in the shoe-changing area and said to his son, who was holding a bottle of milk, "They take a bath very slowly."
"The little fairy and I agreed to go back together"
Li Ran leaned against his father and replied seriously.
"Okay then!"
Li Mu nodded helplessly.
Li Mu's guess was not wrong. His neighbor was really slow to take a shower. He started waiting at 8:30 and waited until 9:00. It was only at 9:15 in the evening that the mother and son came out with a flower basket for bathing.
"Li Ran"
When the little girl saw Li Ran, a bright smile suddenly appeared on her red face.
"For you"
Li Ran handed the other bottle of milk in his hand to the little fairy.
"Thank you"
The little girl took it with a smile.
"Of course, I'm sorry"
The woman reached out and pinched Li Ran's cheek and said, "Auntie, you must have been waiting for a long time!"
After talking to Li Ran, the woman turned her attention to Li Mu who got up from the sofa and smiled slightly apologetically at him.
The smile is very shallow.
A bit like the sunshine in spring, with warmth and intoxication.
At this moment, her neatly combed long hair has quietly been replaced by an interesting round head, making her look very young, especially the jeans on her legs, which have also been replaced by black tights.
Such pants.
Her long legs are completely visible.
Li Mu nodded politely.
Until now, Li Mu doesn't know the name of his neighbor, and he doesn't even know the name of the little fairy, because his son always calls the little girl "fairy", but the real name has never been mentioned in front of him.
Exited the Yaochi bathroom.
Li Mu saw scattered small snowflakes floating in the sky at some point. Under the reflection of the street lights, they looked like little elves dancing around.
There are not many pedestrians on the road.
As the night falls and the temperature drops suddenly, the sound of bicycle horns is like a distant note, with only one or two sounds faintly heard from far away.
"It's snowing"
Li Ran ran to the road excitedly.
Open your palms to welcome the silent snowfall in Ningyang City.
Li Mu looked at this scene with a smile. His son didn't like the cold in winter, but he liked snow very much. Whenever it snowed every year, it was the happiest time for him.
"Ranran, come here quickly"
Compared to Li Mu who was unprepared.
The woman was well prepared and went out with an umbrella. She opened the umbrella and hit it over her daughter's head, then waved to Li Ran.
"No, I want to go with dad"
Li Ran rejected the woman's proposal.
"Send your son over here. He is so young. If he gets wet, he will probably catch a cold."
The woman turned to Li Mu and said.
"Li Ran"
Li Mu shouted quickly.
He reached out and took his running son to the woman's side and said thank you.
Judging from the woman's words, Li Mu felt that his neighbor was not as "difficult to deal with" as he imagined. On the contrary, he was very easy to get along with.
When she reached the door of a store, the woman suddenly stopped.
He took out a mobile phone data cable from the bag and said to Li Ran and the little fairy, "I want to print some information, please wait for me."
"Print?"
Li Mu was stunned, hesitated, and then said, "If you don't mind, you can come to my house to print."
"No need"
The woman obviously doesn't want to trouble Li Mu.
Or maybe they don’t want to enter other men’s houses at night.
She reached out and pulled the door of the store with the words printed on it, and then found that the store had been locked. Perhaps the boss was in a hurry to go home at night and forgot to turn off the lights, so the store lights were on, but inside
There was no one there, and she shook her head helplessly. The woman turned to Li Mu and said, "Looks like I'm going to trouble you anyway."
"It's okay"
Li Mu responded with a chuckle.
After returning home, Li Mu led the woman into the study.
His study is very tidy, with two pots of pothos suitable for the occasion.
There is a laptop computer on the desk, and there is no ashtray or other things used by decadent old men next to it. Next to the computer is a home printing and copying machine that is usually used to print information.
"You shouldn't need me to teach you how to use it, right!?"
Turning on the computer, Li Mu asked with a smile.
"No need"
The woman glanced at Li Mu's study.
At a glance, the entire bookshelf is filled with professional books, at least thousands of them, and two bottles of pen and ink, one black and one blue, are placed on the windowsill.
She had a rough impression of her neighbor's father.
"This is a very hard-working man"
"Right"
Li Mu, who left the study room to the woman, turned around and said, "Thank you."
"Huh?"
The woman is a little confused.
Then he saw Li Mu pointing to the door of the living room, his cheeks were slightly red, and he smiled awkwardly and said, "I saw you didn't post couplets at your house on New Year's Eve, so... I hope you don't mind."
"The handwriting is very good"
Li Mu replied with a smile.
"Haha"
The woman waved her hands in embarrassment.
After leaving the study, Li Mu threw his and his son's clothes into the washing machine. As for his underwear, he always washed them by hand.
In the living room.
Li Ran and the little fairy were sitting on the sofa, looking at Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf.
The two are similar in age.
Even the hobbies are the same, and occasionally I will giggle when I see the highlight clips.
After hanging the clothes to dry on the balcony, Li Mu saw that the woman hadn't finished it yet, so he poured a glass of boiling water and walked in.
"Sorry, there are a lot of questions"
She probably felt that she had delayed Li Mu's rest, so the woman apologized.
"It doesn't matter, you print slowly"
Li Mu put the boiling water in front of the woman and noticed that the printed information on the table was not a work record, but a series of Chinese language questions. This made Li Mu a little surprised and couldn't help but ask, "Are you a teacher?".
"Yeah"
The woman clicked the mouse and replied "Ningyang Elementary School"
"It turned out to be a Chinese teacher, no wonder the handwriting is so beautiful"
Li Mu suddenly realized and said.
"No"
The woman's hand paused for a moment, she raised her head and smiled bitterly, "I teach mathematics. The Chinese teacher in the class has asked for leave for the past two days and asked me to temporarily take over a few classes."
"Haha"
Li Mu smiled stiffly.
Who would have thought that a teacher with good handwriting and printing elementary school Chinese language questions actually teaches mathematics!?
Life!
Sure enough, there are unexpected surprises everywhere.
