When Zhang Zhong came out of the shower, he was wearing Xu Yuhan's father's clothes. The style was quite old, including black trousers and a white long-sleeved T-shirt.
Looking at the loose clothes on Zhang Zhong, Xu Yuhan said with a smile, "My dad is a bit fat, and his clothes are a bit too big for you. Your clothes can be worn after being washed and dried."
Zhang Zhong was not too picky. He rolled up his wide sleeves halfway and said with a smile, "Sorry to trouble you."
Xu Yuhan's parents are both university professors. They stay in Jinling all year round and only come back occasionally. Hu Huifang caught Xu Yuhan and asked about these things before, otherwise Zhang Zhong wouldn't know about it.
The house they are currently in is still the old house of the Xu family. The decoration and furniture seem to be old, but the house is well organized. Although Xu Yuhan usually lives alone, he can still feel a lot of atmosphere.
There is a flower stand that takes up most of the space on the balcony. It is summer, and the flowers and plants are very prosperous. Most of the flower stands are non-flowering herbaceous plants. There are no colorful flowers, and the entire balcony looks green.
Seeing what Zhang Zhong was looking at, Xu Yuhan smiled and said, "I'm lazy and don't have time to take care of it, so I just raised some potted plants that don't take much effort."
"If I were really lazy, I'm afraid this shelf would have turned yellow a long time ago."
Real lazy people can even feed pothos and cacti to death. Zhang Zhong has seen many such people.
Although the flower stand on the balcony is monotonous in color, it is at least clean and there are not even a few fallen leaves. This shows that Xu Yuhan takes care of it regularly.
The two were talking when Xu Yuhan suddenly slapped her forehead and said, "I almost forgot."
Then he quickly ran to the kitchen and came back with a bowl of ginger soup.
"You should drink it while it's hot. It's hot out here, and you'll easily catch a cold if you catch a cold."
Zhang Zhong was not polite, said thank you and brought the ginger soup over.
The rain was still falling outside, but it sounded lighter than when they came back just now.
Zhang Zhong couldn't help but laugh when he saw the umbrella leaning against the door. It was also embarrassing for his mother that he still kept such an umbrella.
The two of them sat like this, and neither of them spoke for a while. The rain was gurgling outside the window, and all that could be heard in the ears was the ticking sound of rainwater falling, and the rhythmic spinning sound of the drum washing machine.
"Teacher Zhang..."
"Call me Zhang Zhong."
Xu Yuhan was stunned, nodded and said, "I'm going to cook, what do you want to eat?"
"It's raining so heavily now, and we can't go out to buy groceries. It seems that what we eat depends on what's in your refrigerator." Zhang Chong said with a smile.
Xu Yuhan opened the refrigerator, looking a little embarrassed.
"There are only eggs and tomatoes left. How about I go buy some more vegetables? The rain has eased a bit. The vegetable market is not far away. It's just a few steps away."
"No, aren't there already three dishes?"
"Three dishes?"
“Scrambled eggs with tomatoes, cold tomatoes, and tomato egg soup.”
"..."
In the end they ate tomato and egg noodles.
Xu Yuhan was good at cooking, but maybe because he was tired from the rain and hungry, Zhang Zhong ate a big bowl of noodles.
After Zhang Zhong finished eating the noodles, he looked up and saw Xu Yuhan holding her chin in her hands and looking at him.
"What? I eat like a starving ghost?" Zhang Chong said with a smile.
Xu Yuhan shook her head, "No, I just saw the way you were eating noodles, and it reminded me of my father. When I was a child, my father was still a lecturer, and my mother was still studying for graduate school. At that time, my father often went out to work part-time after class, and at night
When he came back, his mother would always make him a bowl of noodles. My mother’s other dishes were mediocre, but tomato and egg noodles were the best. As time went by, tomatoes and eggs were often kept at home.”
"So you inherited this skill from your aunt?"
Xu Yuhan said with a bit of playfulness, "I am better than my master. In addition to tomato and egg noodles, I can also cook other dishes."
Zhang Zhong said with a smile, "But there are still only tomatoes and eggs in your refrigerator."
"I'll definitely let you try other dishes I cook next time." After saying that, Xu Yuhan's face turned red again, as she was blatantly inviting Zhang Zhong to his home for dinner.
The last time I invited him to dinner is still vivid in my mind.
But what she didn't expect was that Zhang Zhong nodded, "Okay."
Some people say that a woman's love is like a marathon. There will be a lot to consider between two people. As time goes by and the more contact they have, they will have a set of standards in their hearts. One point will be subtracted here and one point added there.
, very complicated.
But a man's love is like an archery. It only takes one shot to hit the target. A man may fall in love with a woman because of a small thing, a subtle movement, or even a beautiful sound.
Although this metaphor is not completely correct, at that moment, Zhang Zhong's heart was hit by the Xu Yuhan in front of him.
Xu Yuhan is very beautiful, Zhang Zhong has always known it, but to Zhang Zhong in the past, her beauty was no different from a beautiful piece of porcelain or a beautiful painting.
But now, everything is a little different.
The heavy rain outside isolated the house into a small world, and at this moment, he and Xu Yuhan were the only two people in this world.
Zhang Zhong withdrew his gaze because the girl in front of him had been stared at until her neck turned red.
"Has anyone ever said that you always like to blush?" Zhang Zhong asked with a smile.
Xu Yuhan shook her head.
She wouldn't always blush like this when facing other people, Xu Yuhan thought so, but didn't say it out loud.
"It seems that you can also choose a partner when you are blushing."
Xu Yuhan seemed to have been hit on an acupuncture point, and her body suddenly became stiff. She quickly stood up and put away the dishes, "I'm going to wash the dishes, why don't you watch TV first?"
…
When I left Xu Yuhan's house, it was getting late and the rain had stopped.
When I got home, the light in the living room was still on, and when I opened the door, I saw the old couple sitting on the sofa.
"Why are you back?" Hu Huifang's tone was filled with surprise.
Zhang Zhong rolled his eyes and raised the umbrella in his hand, "This umbrella is broken. Throw it away."
After saying that, he went back to the house.
Hu Huifang looked over and over while holding the umbrella, with a smile on her lips. It seemed that things were not progressing at all.
She glanced at Zhang Zhong's door and said with a smile, "This kid is still pretending."
If he really wanted to throw this umbrella away, why would he take it back and tell them? He just threw it away when he was outside, it was just an umbrella.
After Zhang Zhong returned to the room, he took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Xu Yuhan, telling her that he was safe.
