The place where Yali lives is not very far from Aunt Wang's newsstand, just two streets away! If the distance is too far, it will be inconvenient for her to take her daughter to this newsstand for dinner every day by bicycle.
The next morning, Xu Tongdao, Xu Tonglin and Xi Dongyang went to the vegetable market to buy vegetables. They were asked to wash the vegetables and put on skewers first, while he went there on a broken tricycle.
According to the address written on the note given by Aunt Wang, Comrade Xu found the place where Yali lived.
It is also on the riverside, separated from the river by only a road.
It is a semi-old small second-story building. There are many such small buildings in this area.
The door was open, but no one was seen in the main room.
Tongdao Xu parked his tricycle on the side of the road, walked to the door, checked the house number again, then raised his hand and knocked on the door, shouting inside: "Is there anyone there? Is there anyone there?"
"Who is it?"
Yali's voice came from the room next to the hall. Her voice was familiar to Comrade Xu.
"It's me! Xiao Xu, Sister Yali, it was Aunt Wang who asked me to change your gas tank."
Comrade Xu responded very naturally, without any embarrassment.
After all, what lives in his current body is the soul of an old man.
It is hard for such a soul to feel embarrassed.
There were footsteps in the room, and not long after, the door opened, and Yali came out wearing a set of water-red shorts and a short shirt, with a pair of red plastic slippers on her feet.
Xu Tongdao noticed that all ten of her toenails were painted with red nail polish.
The white toes and red nail polish looked so pleasing to the eye, which not only made him wonder if he was a bit perverted?
Her clothes are casual style, but because her figure is too domineering, it looks a bit tight.
Plus, it's a watery red color, and it looks a bit like underwear.
This made Xu Tongdao's eyes have nowhere to focus. It seemed that no matter which part of her body he looked at, it was quite vulgar.
He had no choice but to look at her face and smile like a gentleman.
"Is it you? Hello! Hello! Please come in!"
Seeing Tongdao Xu, an unnatural smile appeared on her cold face. From this smile, Tongdao Xu estimated that she rarely smiled.
Perhaps because she needed his help today, her expression and tone at this time were softer than Tongdao Xu had ever seen.
Xu Tongdao nodded with a smile and walked into her house.
"By the way, sister Yali, where is Yaya? Aren't you at home?"
If you are alone and alone, you will be easily embarrassed if you don't find a topic.
When Comrade Xu came in, he came up with this topic.
Yaya is her daughter.
Recently, she took her to Aunt Wang's place for dinner every night. Comrade Xu had heard the little girl's name more than once.
"Oh, her grandma just picked her up. Let me get you a glass of water first!"
As she spoke, she smoothed her short hair around her ears, walked to the dining table, turned over a glass that was upside down in a red tray on the table, and reached out to take out a boiling water bottle from the closet next to the table to fill it with water.
Comrade Xu said politely, "Sister Yali, don't be busy, I'm not thirsty! By the way, where is your kitchen? Let me go and help you unload the gas tank first!"
As Tongdao Xu spoke, he looked around for the location of the kitchen.
In fact, he had already seen the kitchen door, which was at the northeast corner of the main room, but she didn't allow him to enter her kitchen directly.
"No hurry, no rush! Just drink some water first!"
As she spoke, she put down the boiled water bottle, put the glass of water she had just poured on the table, and called him over to drink.
On such a hot day, her house didn't even have a cool day.
Can you drink boiled water just poured from a boiling water bottle?
Tongdao Xu expressed his gratitude, but in his heart he felt like laughing.
Seeing that he didn't want to drink water, she took him to the kitchen. She walked in front and said as she walked: "Thank you for today! By the way, the place where the gas tank is changed is not very far from my home. I will be with you later."
Can you go with us? I guess you don’t know the way, and here, it’s a gas tank! Can you get off?”
As she spoke, she pointed to the gas tank under the liquefied gas stove.
The decoration of her house is quite new, probably it was just decorated when she got married a few years ago.
Everywhere was cleaned.
It's just that the home seems to lack popularity and seems a bit deserted.
Just like her temperament.
To be honest, seeing the situation in her home, Xu Tongdao felt a little complicated. He thought of the apartment he bought for marriage before his rebirth, and... his ex-wife.
That woman doesn't like to do housework, doesn't usually do hygiene, and only does general cleaning once a week or two weeks. When doing general cleaning, she has a reason to ask him to come with her.
She said that of course she didn't need to call him when doing small cleaning, but of course they had to do the general cleaning together.
But she clearly doesn't practice hygiene.
besides……
She doesn't like to cook either. She usually cooks noodles or scrambles eggs and fried rice at most. Most of the time she lets him cook, and the reasons are quite plausible.
She said that since he had a tricky tongue and good cooking skills, he would definitely be picky about the food she cooked, so she simply let him cook.
After several years of marriage with that woman, Comrade Xu never had a serious meal that she cooked.
A failed marriage will always leave many bad memories for people.
This was also the main reason why he never thought about renewing his relationship with that woman after his rebirth.
He won't make the same mistake a second time.
This Yali's house is clean and tidy. This woman is good-looking and has such a domineering figure. If he were to be her man...
Comrade Xu is a little yearning for it.
Then I became curious, where did the man go to such a woman? Why have I never seen her?
Is that man willing to keep such a wife at home for a long time?
Are you willing to live in two separate places?
Out of curiosity, when Comrade Xu went to unload the gas tank, he pretended to ask casually: "Sister Yali, where is your brother-in-law? Why haven't I seen him in such a long time?"
After asking, he glanced at her expression from the corner of his eye.
The smile on Yali's face stagnated, she lowered her head slightly, and when she raised her head again, she smoothed the short hair around her ears and said with a faint smile: "He is dead!"
Comrade Xu was slightly startled and apologized quickly, "I'm sorry, Sister Yali! I didn't know, you, you are sorry!"
I felt a little sympathy for her, but I also had some unreasonable thoughts that I couldn't share with others.
It was really hard for him not to have some thoughts that such a beautiful woman with such a good figure was actually a widow.
only……
She is a widow who doesn't go to work during the day and plays with her mobile phone every day. Where does she get the money? Is it because her family has a strong financial foundation? Or is it her husband's family that has a strong foundation?
"It's okay! I've long been used to it. By the way, my surname is Wu. You should call me Sister Wu from now on!"
Her expression was very calm, and there was no sign of sadness.
"Okay, Sister Yali!"
While talking, Comrade Xu had already removed the pipe joint of the gas tank and immediately walked out of the kitchen carrying the empty gas tank. Wu Yali quickly followed.
