Because something unexpected happened, Xia Zhi originally wanted to prepare a table of the best dishes she could make for Xia Meng's arrival, but this plan was shattered by Xia Meng. The ingredients were not prepared at all.
, in the end, this lunch was really shabby for a cleansing banquet. Xia Zhi put all the dishes on the dining table, took off her apron, and came to the living room. Xia Meng was holding an Akita dog and playing with her mobile phone.
Xia Zhi came over and put down the phone again. She felt that she had not changed much from when she was at home.
"Xiaomeng, why don't you eat first? I didn't have time to prepare at noon today. I'm going to buy some food for dinner tonight and cook a good meal for you." Xia Zhi was a little uneasy.
"I'm not that picky, just do whatever you want. I told my mother that I had arrived, and she asked me to ask you to call her. I told her that you picked me up at the airport, so don't let it slip.
"Xia Meng is still holding the phone and pressing the button. Probably what she said to her mother was done using chat software. Xia Zhi felt that she would have to call her mother later. Although she was very grateful to Xia Meng for thinking about herself.
, he concealed the fact that he ran from the airport to the apartment without authorization, but Xia Zhi felt that it would be better not to have such things happen too often, as this would test the heart.
Xia Zhi now has a lot of questions that she wants to ask, such as when Xiaomeng arrived in Japan, or how she came here, and why she didn't call him. There are a lot of questions.
I don’t know where to start asking. But now it’s better to let her eat. After all, she just got off the plane at this time, so the possibility of not eating is quite high.
"Come over for dinner first. After eating, I'll call mom to say you're safe, and then I'll pack your luggage for you."
Xia Meng put the mobile phone in her hand on the sofa, and the Akita dog also put it aside, then stood up and walked towards the dining table: "Let's talk about it later when we call. The main reason for coming here this time is because my father and mother suddenly
I have become very busy, and I am a useless person who can't take care of myself, so I have no choice but to come over and ask you to take care of me for a while. Although you may not find it troublesome, you can still do what you usually do, don't worry about me.
alright."
"Xiaomeng, you are not a useless person." Xia Zhi gave a bitter smile. This is what Xiaomeng said is impossible. Of course the trouble is not troublesome, it is all trouble for the family, but if she doesn't care, it may be
It's unlikely that it will be possible.
Xia Zhi also sat at the dining table, stretched out his hand and handed the chopsticks to her: "I'll tidy up the wardrobe later. I don't have much clothes anyway, so I just need to tidy it up a little."
"I didn't bring any clothes, and there were only a few books in the box to pass the time. It's okay to just put them in the box. I don't go out much anyway." Xia Meng looked at Xia Zhi, who had something to say.
: "Speaking of which, when are you going to have a holiday? It's still more than a month away?"
Xia Zhi nodded: "Spring break will be in more than a month. We can go on a trip then, but I don't know how long Xiao Meng you will stay."
"It seems that the matter at my parents' place won't be resolved so quickly. You should stay there for a while. By the way, my mother also asked me to see how you are doing here when you come over this time. It seems like there is nothing to worry about now.
"Xia Meng picked up the chopsticks and started to eat. Xia Zhi hadn't moved the chopsticks yet. He wanted to hear what his sister said about his craftsmanship, but she didn't say anything. She explained it very well.
She said nothing when she was told to cook. She looked at Xia Zhi, who also started to eat. The meals on the table were very simple and were made at will. That was all Xia Zhi usually cooked.
"This apartment seems to be old and a bit small. Don't you consider changing to another one?"
"I think it's actually pretty good. I've lived there for so long without any problems, and the rent is very cheap. The most important thing is that there are no other suitable apartments nearby except this apartment, because I have to go to class during the day and in the afternoon
I still have to work...by the way, what about dinner." Xia Zhi suddenly realized a major problem. He didn't have to go back to the apartment to have dinner before because he was alone, and his working hours were from four in the afternoon to evening.
Eight o'clock is a total of four hours. For this reason, Xia Zhi basically has no intention of returning to the apartment after going to work in the afternoon. He also eats dinner and other things in the store. But this is more troublesome... or dinner later.
Come back to the apartment to eat? This is also very troublesome...
"I really think I shouldn't come over."
"No, no, no, it's just a small problem." Xia Zhi shook his head.
"You need to go to work after school, and you have to eat dinner outside. It was not good for me to be alone with someone who has nothing to do with me. Then you can just come here after school, help me cook a meal and then go to work.
, anyway, Japan is in East 9th District, which is an hour earlier than home, so you can come over and cook a meal until it’s ready to eat.”
Xia Zhi's eyes lit up: "That's right! Oh no, the dishes will get cold if you do this. There is no such thing as a microwave here... How about buying one?"
"I'm not that delicate." Xia Meng looked at Xia Zhi and couldn't help but stop holding the chopsticks in her hand: "When you tell your mother about this, just say that you came to the apartment to eat, otherwise she will talk about it again
Already."
"Mom is caring about you. Xiaomeng, don't bother her."
"I know, I don't have this idea either. I just think it's better not to say it than to worry her by saying it. It won't have any impact anyway."
"Okay... But if there's anything you feel uncomfortable with, Xiaomeng, just tell me and I'll see if I can change it. After all, you have to live there for so long."
"As I said, I'm not that delicate. Don't treat me like a child. I've graduated from high school."
"It's not a question of whether you are a child or not... Even if you have completed your Ph.D., you are still my sister." After Xia Zhi said this, he regretted it, and the atmosphere at the scene began to solidify again. Xiao Meng seemed to have never been happy.
I like to talk about this topic. But this problem cannot be avoided. Just as Xia Zhi said, no matter what, Xiao Meng is his sister, and it is his responsibility to take good care of her. At least until she becomes an adult,
He has the responsibility to take care of her, even though she may no longer need him to take care of her, but the so-called relatives are such an existence that cannot be denied or replaced.
"This is really... something you can hear every time." Xia Meng looked at Xia Zhi and said without any expression on her face. She seemed a little happy and a little angry. Xia Zhi couldn't tell. She said again
After lowering his head to eat, Xia Zhi also felt that it would be better not to continue this topic for the time being.
