Thinking of this, Lu Chixiao changed the topic: "Is your aunt taking the little guy with you?"
"No." Although Xu Suizhu thought it was strange, she still told him, "I have to go to work, and my aunt and uncle are also very busy at the fishery, so I left it at a neighbor's house."
Lu Chixiao's brows moved slightly, and he wanted to ask something more, but he heard the clanging bells ringing in the town's campus.
Xu Suizhu glanced at his watch and said apologetically: "Sorry, I have class at half past one, so what, do you have nothing else to do?"
Yes! Why not? Lu Chixiao said in his heart.
He even wanted to get it off his chest and confess that he was the one who did this and that to her that night. But there were people coming and going on the street. He wanted to find another place to talk. She hurried to work again.
"Well, you go ahead." What else can be done? He is also very powerless.
The days ahead are long, Lu Chixiao told himself.
He turned around and got on the motorcycle, holding his helmet and watching her walk into the school gate, then he turned the handle and left at lightning speed.
The little guy was stored at a neighbor's house. He wanted to check it out, but she didn't tell him which neighbor he was. He couldn't go door to door to look for it, right?
Forget it, let's wait until everything is settled before coming back.
On the other side, as soon as Xu Suizhu entered the office, she saw Teacher Zhong smiling ambiguously and winking at her.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" She was staring at her all the time.
"Hey! Tell me honestly, is that man pursuing you?" Teacher Zhong came over, touched her with his elbow, and asked narrowly.
Xu Suizhu was speechless for a while: "You should change your surname to 'Bagua'."
"Oh, come on, tell me. Maybe I can give you some advice. Is that person good-looking and has a good personality? How old is he? What does he do at home..."
Without answering this series of questions, Xu Suizhu picked up the lecture notes and ran away: "I'm going to class."
Teacher Zhong curled his lips and muttered: "You still say it's nothing. Why are you avoiding my question?"
Teacher Yu, who was correcting the homework, shook his head helplessly: "Since Teacher Xu doesn't want to say anything, don't ask. I think Zhou Xiaolu from the first grade office is staring at Teacher Xu and criticizing her all day long. If she hears it, who knows what will happen.
That’s a tough thing to say.”
"She dares!" Teacher Zhong raised his eyebrows.
Even though he was talking loudly, his heart was as clear as a mirror. Zhou Xiaolu was like a piece of dog-skin plaster. Once it stuck, it was really annoying. He stopped talking about this topic.
On the way to the classroom, Xu Suizhu didn't think about Teacher Zhong's joking question - is he pursuing her?
It feels a bit like it, otherwise why would he come here to see her for no reason? He still cares about who brings the little bun... It's okay if he doesn't think about it deeply. Thinking about it more deeply, looking at his actions from her perspective, it does mean something like that.
But... then I thought it was impossible. She was carrying a baby with no father or mother. Who would consider finding a wife like her?
Maybe he was just passing by and saw me coming to say hello? Mentioning Little Baozi was just a matter of conversation?
Forget it, no need to disturb yourself. Seeing the door of the classroom, Xu Suizhu slowly exhaled a breath, calmed down, and plunged into the ocean of English.
After class, there were weekly newspapers waiting for her, papers waiting for her, and extra money manuscripts waiting for her. She was as busy as a spinning top, spinning around without having to pump it. She didn't have time to think wildly.
As soon as she was busy after school, she took the engraved papers and mimeographed them so that they could be distributed to the students for self-study in the evening.
After assigning homework and leaving work with a stack of materials, I couldn’t come over at night.
After more than two months of adaptation, the English salon is on the right track. It is enough to come for guidance occasionally, and there is no need to come again and again.
Tonight she wanted to borrow her cooking treasure and prepare a table of delicious food for her brother and sister-in-law to come over for dinner.
I've been in town for so long, and I often ask them to look after Doudou, and occasionally I go to their house to have dinner, but I haven't really asked them back once.
The main reason is that I am not used to using a large stove, and the gas stove only has one burner, so it takes half a day to cook a meal.
When inviting guests over for dinner, you can't just have rice with mud snails and salted duck eggs, right? That's too shabby.
Before going home, Xu Suizhu went to Xishi's Tofu House in Qiaotou to weigh a piece of tender tofu. When he saw the hot tofu curd, he also scooped up two bowls.
I picked up the little buns on the way home and went to my brother-in-law's house first to tell me that I would go to her place for dinner tonight.
After arriving home, feed the little bun and let him lie down on the small bed and listen to music. The radio will play music for half an hour every day at this time. Sometimes it is revolutionary songs, sometimes it is classical music such as Er Quan Ying Yue, so that the little cutie can listen to it for a few hours.
Minutes, cultivating and cultivating his musical sentiment.
Seeing the little bun waving his little arms and babbling happily, Xu Suizhu went to work in the kitchen.
First put the washed rice, sliced bacon, beans and soaked straw mushrooms into the food grid. Tonight’s staple food is cured meat claypot rice.
The time of simmering rice is a little longer than that of vegetables, but it is much faster than cooking in a clay oven, only twelve minutes.
During this period, Xu Suizhu went to the back garden to dig some potatoes, pick some eggplants and green peppers, and planned to make a kelp and tofu soup later and stew three kinds of fresh vegetables in oil.
It doesn’t matter if you don’t have ribs or fresh meat. There are a lot of dried clams and prawns that don’t look very good at home but they taste absolutely good. Put some dried seafood in the soup to ensure that it is fresh and delicious.
One dish, one soup, one clay pot rice, and a portion of sweet tofu pudding for dessert after the meal.
Lin Jianbing and Wu Meili came over after work. They originally wanted to help, but they found that their cousin had already prepared the dishes.
Wu Meili took advantage of the man teasing Xiao Baozi in the main room, tugged on Xu Suizhu's clothes, and asked in a low voice: "Sui Sui, on my way to get off work, I heard some gossiping women on the street saying that there was a man riding a motorcycle today.
I came to see you, well, I have no other intention, it’s just, what..."
Xu Suizhu's heart skipped a beat, and she didn't think of that big shot anymore.
He organized his language and said: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, he is just an ordinary friend who passed by and stopped by to see me. We didn't say a few words."
This is worrying. Wu Meili was murmuring in her heart.
Her mother-in-law asked her more than once that her cousin had been in town for two or three months and did she have any familiar male colleagues? How could she know this? And according to her observation, her cousin didn't seem to have any plans to find another man.
Let's ask a matchmaker to introduce her. Looking at the whole fjord town, there is no young man of the right age who can be a good match for my cousin.
Oops, my mother-in-law is worried, and she is also worried.
However, my mother-in-law did not dare to ask her cousin directly for fear of arousing her sadness.
She heard someone say after get off work today that a handsome guy riding a motorcycle would come to see her cousin at noon. She couldn't help but feel happy: being able to buy a motorcycle means that the family is well-off, and a handsome guy means that he looks good. It depends on what the cousin thinks.
When asked, they turned out to be just ordinary friends.
Good luck!
Wu Meili thought hard, how can she be tactful, avoid making her cousin suspicious, but also persuade her to seriously consider finding a partner?
