MTL - Slowly Falling For Changkong-Chapter 34
When Xu Lian came, I also bought some fruits. She had given the key to her house to Changkong before, but she knocked first.
Xiang Changkong had told his mother that Xu Lian was coming, and when he heard the knock on the door, he walked over and opened the door. Xu Lian stood outside and smiled at him. He invited Xu Lian in and said to Weng Shuli, who was reading on the sofa, "Mom, Xu Lian came to see you."
I wonder if it was because of reading that Weng Shuli was wearing pair of glasses today. She lifted her head from the book, glanced in the direction of Changkong and Xu Lian, and then turned her head and turned a page.
This book was Xiang Nuan worried that she was bored at home alone, and bought it to relieve her boredom. She hadn't read it for so long, and suddenly she was intrigued today, turning the book out.
Xiang Changkong felt helpless and pulled Xu Lian to sit down on the sofa and said to her: "I have prepared lunch. If you like, you can eat here at noon, just warm it up."
Xu Lian nodded and said, "Okay, you don't need to worry about me, go to work first."
To tell the truth, Xiang Changkong is not so relieved to keep Xu Lian alone with her mother. He is not afraid that Xu Li will bully her mother, but that her mother will be wronged. But Xu Lian offered to get along with his mother. He also hoped that the relationship between the two would improve as soon as possible.
He looked down at Xu Lian and gave her a slight smile: "Well, what's the matter, just call me directly."
"it is good."
After leaving the sky, Weng Shuli still sat in her place to read a book, which seemed to ignore Xu Lian. Xu Lian put the fruit in her hand on the table and said to Weng Shuli, "Auntie, do you like strawberries? These are strawberries sold by Xingguang Farm. They were picked and transported from the farm early in the morning. They are very fresh. May I help you wash it? "
Weng Shuli didn't respond, and Xu Lian didn't care. She carried the strawberry to the kitchen and found a large bowl, soaking the strawberry in. When she washed the strawberries and came out, Weng Shuli was still reading, and her posture did not change much.
Putting strawberries on the coffee table, she glanced curiously at the book cover, and she was lucky to write "Actor".
"Auntie, do you also like to read Teacher Xingxin's book? This novel has been made into a movie, starring Mo Zhen, have you read it?"
Weng Shuli was silent.
Xu Lian pushed the strawberry in her direction and said to her, "Are you going to eat a strawberry? I just tasted one and it was sweet."
It may be that the aroma of strawberries floated to the tip of Weng Shuli's nose. She looked up at the attractive strawberries in the bowl and closed her eyes again.
Xu Lian picked up a strawberry and shoved it into her mouth, and stopped talking.
She is not a person who likes to communicate with others. If it were not for her mother to Changkong, she would not have said so much to her. She had no friends since she was a child, and she didn't know how to be flattering. What she said to Weng Shuli for so long has already broken her own record.
After eating another strawberry, Xu Lian looked at Weng Shuli calmly.
Regarding her illness, Xiang Changkong had already told her before.
After dying to his father, Weng Shuli's mental state has always been bad. Because Xiang Changkong was busy dealing with his father's funeral and school affairs, he did not care about his mother. Unexpectedly, she was taken in by a caring person, almost deceiving all her savings.
Knowing that she had been cheated, Weng Shuli's spirit broke down completely, and she could not afford illness. At that time, the family had little money. In order to treat her, Xiang Changkong had to sell the old house and pay her medical expenses while maintaining the daily expenses of the family.
At first, Weng Shuli was paralyzed. She couldn't take care of herself at all. The doctor checked her several times and said that there was no problem with her physical function, which was probably caused by psychological reasons. Xiang Changkong helped her find a psychological expert, but she refused to communicate with anyone.
After a series of accidents at home, Xiang Changkong had to give up the opportunity to study abroad and went to work in a financial institution. Because he was busy at work, he could only hire a nanny to take care of Weng Shuli's daily diet.
After receiving treatment for more than half a year, although Weng Shuli was still reluctant to speak, she was able to walk down slowly. For the past three years, Xiang Changkong has not given up on her treatment, and she is improving.
However, he refused to go out or talk to them.
Xu Lian stayed at Xiang Changkong's house all morning. Weng Shuli didn't tell her in a word. She had also eaten the strawberries she bought. Looking at the empty bowl, Xu Lianchao Weng Shuli smiled and said, "Auntie, don't you like to eat strawberries, then I will change some fruits next time."
She took the empty bowl to the kitchen to clean it, and by the way heated her lunch, she brought it to the dining table: "Aunty, it's time for lunch."
Weng Shuli looked up, still the kind of eyes that made Xu Lian uncomfortable. But after staring at her for a while, she put down her book and walked to the dining table.
Xiang Changkong burned the taro today, which was soft and glutinous. Xu Lian ate several pieces together. On the other side, Weng Shuli was expressionless even when eating. The two quietly finished the meal. Weng Shuli took the book and went back to her room.
Xu Lian glanced at her, packed the tableware on the table, and left Xiang Changkong's house with her bag.
When she was sitting in her car, she exhaled deeply. She is the most afraid of trouble, but Weng Shuli has to face the difficulties. Thinking of her illness, she frowned again.
I have to take care of my mother and my sister. It has been hard for Xiang Changkong in recent years.
She took out her cell phone and wanted to call Changkong, but when she saw the time on the cell phone, she dismissed the thought again. It was the busiest time for Changkong at this moment. She should wait for a while before contacting him.
Since he left, she did not know the Starlight Park, but drove the car home directly, and went to take a nap. Strictly speaking this morning, she was sitting on the sofa for a morning of strawberries, but ... her heart was still tired.
As soon as I changed my clothes and lay down, I called in the sky. She leaned on the bed and called the phone and called him: "To the sky."
"Um." Xiang Changkong responded and asked her, "Are you still in my house?"
"is back."
"Well ... my mother didn't embarrass you, right?"
"No, she didn't even tell me a word."
He paused for a long time and laughed lowly.
Xu Lian continued: "She has been reading a book all morning, and I was reading next to her. I think so, next time I go, bring my tools for making candles.
She reads a book and she makes a candle next to it. No one is wasting time.
