Summer is not late, good day is good

Chapter 173

Xia Xiaochen rushed out of the coffee shop after saying these words, Xia Wanlu immediately put down the money and chased him out.

"Xiaochen! Stop!" She yelled loudly from behind, but Xia Xiaochen, as if she hadn't heard it, rushed to the side of the road and stopped a taxi, and disappeared in the sea of ​​cars in an instant.

She stared at the passing vehicles, at a loss...

"Little pig!" he shouted in the distance.

She turned her head and saw Zuo Chenan running over in a hurry, and Shu Kai was with him.

"Why are you here? Didn't you wait for me to pick you up from get off work?" He looked at her worriedly, feeling that she looked strange.

She forced a smile, "It's okay, I just drank a cup of coffee with Xiaochen..."

"Xiaochen, what's wrong with you?" He raised his brows slightly, holding her hand, clearly expressing his anxiety and worry.

She shook her head, "Don't be so nervous, you're really fine! Is Shu Kai here too?" She changed the subject.

"Yeah, sister, I went to the company today, and I came with my brother-in-law." Shu Kai smiled at her, and his gestures were already star-like.

Seeing this, Xia Wanlu became more grateful to Chen An.

"I asked Shu Kai to come to our house for dinner! It's been a long time since we got together! You wait here, I'll drive over here." Zuo Chen'an squeezed her hand before walking towards the parking lot.

There were only two siblings left in front of the coffee shop. Shu Kai stared at her slightly frowning eyebrows, feeling sorry for her. These days, every time she saw her sister, she seemed to have this expression, even if she was smiling, her brows were also Unable to open, as the saying goes, there are knots in the heart, and knots in the brows, the so-called brows that are lowered but the heart is in the heart is also what it means...

It was all caused by Xiaochen!
"Sister..." He found a strand of her hair that had fallen out, and stretched out his hand to smooth it back for her, "Don't think too much, there is a saying that children and grandchildren have their own blessings, not to mention that Xiaochen is not your son, It's not your grandson either, as a big sister, you've done enough, Xiaochen has grown up now, and you can no longer control her thoughts, you can let her do whatever she wants!"

"Shu Kai, you don't understand..." Xia Wanlu frowned even tighter, "I'm even thinking now, did I hurt her... I don't know how to be a sister, I didn't teach her how to behave, I'm such a failure It's..."

"Sister! Don't take all the responsibility on yourself! How else can you be a big sister? Provide her with food, clothes, and college! Even parents can only do this, how can you deal with her?" How is she? Besides, even parents have fulfilled their obligations by raising her, and she should walk the rest of the way, not to mention you still raised her until 22, sister, your responsibilities have already been exhausted..."

While Shu Kai was talking, Zuo Chen'an's car drove over, Xia Wanlu tugged at Shu Kai's sleeve, and winked, "Forget it, don't say it, and don't say this in front of Chen An, he I'm tired enough, and I've done enough for our family, I don't want him to worry about our affairs anymore! I don't want him to worry either!"

"Well... I understand! But sister, don't compete with Xiaochen anymore! If you have anything to say, you should tell brother-in-law, after all, he has some influence here, and he is better than you to deal with the problem yourself!"

Her eyes were in a trance, and she shook her head, "Shu Kai, you won't understand, I look at him, and my heart aches... He is not easy, but I am not a good wife, I always make him sad, make him tired , Shu Kai, how did I find that I can't do anything well..."

Yes, every role in life is played so badly. Unsuccessful sister, unsuccessful wife, and even daughter are not good enough. After patronizing Xiaochen all these years, my mother has lost her filial piety. .These days, she always thinks about problems quietly, but the more she thinks about it, the more she gets into a dead end...

"You! Don't be too demanding of yourself! In my heart, you are the best sister!" Shu Kai faintly felt that the sister in front of him was different from the previous one. How angry was she at that moment when someone's peach branch was chasing him all over the street?It was all Xiaochen's fault!His dislike for Xiaochen increased a bit.

"What are the two siblings talking about? I don't even have that much to say to me!" Zuo Chen'an's car drove up and passed them, the windows were open, and his smile was like a breeze.

He looked jealous, but he was actually just joking. Xia Wanlu looked at her, and felt a pain in her heart. These days, she really didn't talk to him very much, would he feel wronged?

So he got into the car with a smile, and took the initiative to hug him, "Speaking ill of you!"

He was flattered and hugged him in public. How many years has he been treated like this?If Shu Kai wasn't here, he really wanted to give her a good hug.Did she take the initiative to start joking with him?Hmm... This is a good sign, I really don't want her to be depressed all the time... Although, this joke is a bit far-fetched, so far-fetched that he can easily see that she is trying her best to cater to him, but this is progress , isn't it?Progress is something to be happy about...

Shu Kai is very sensible and knows how to observe. Seeing this, he hurriedly followed to activate the atmosphere, "Oh, is it necessary to be so nasty? I don't want needle eyes!"

In one sentence, Zuo Chen was so happy that he kept laughing while driving, and the corners of his mouth were hanging on his ears. After returning home, he shouted at his aunt, "Auntie! We are back! Is the meal ready? We are starving to death! "

Auntie ran out of the kitchen, also looking flattered, what happened to Mr. Zuo?Never seen him speak so loudly and boyishly!However, her emotions were also infected, she brought out the dishes happily, and Xia Wanlu also went into the kitchen to help.

In the past, Zuo Chen'an served Xia Wanlu with meals, but something has changed in the past few days.Ever since Xia Wanlu expressed that she would try not to wrong him, she always took the initiative to serve him, just like today, when he and Shu Kai just sat down, the bowls, chopsticks and wine glasses were placed in front of them, and she went to take them Bring some red wine.

Seeing her busy up and down, he couldn't bear it, everyone could see that she was deliberately trying to please him, he promised her to help her overcome some obstacles slowly, but she didn't need to lower herself so much, she now It's too much!

He couldn't help but grabbed her hand, pulled her to sit down beside him, and said lightly, "Don't be so busy, you're so tired at work, just rest when you come home, no one wants you to do this!"

"Okay..." She agreed, and sat down beside him, her face was a little red, and her eyes could not conceal the frustration.

"What's wrong?" He faintly felt a little strange.

"No! It's nothing! Let's eat!" She smiled and shook her head, but when she lowered her head, there were layers of haze in her eyes.

"Okay, eat!" He took an extra wine glass and put it in front of her, "You drink some too! You drink very well!"

"Yeah!" She just nodded obediently.

Shu Kai is always an optimist. What he likes most is that his sister and brother-in-law are in love with each other, so he made a toast to his sister and brother-in-law at the first glass of wine, "Sister, the luckiest thing in my life is to become a family with my mother and you. .Brother-in-law, you don’t know, my sister has been a housekeeper since she was a child. She took care of me, took care of my studies, my clothes, and my food. , I convinced my sister to smoke! I like singing since I was a child, and my sister was my first listener. The first gift I received in my life was the harmonica that my sister gave me when I was young. I still keep it! I I kept thinking, I don’t know who will have the good fortune to marry my sister in the future, it must be someone I admire, otherwise I will not be happy! Brother-in-law, I admire you! You two must be happy!"

"I'm so jealous!" Zuo Chen'an looked at her sideways with a pair of water-colored boundless eyes, with soft light flowing inside, "When will you care about my clothes?"

These words have a different meaning, Xia Wanlu glanced at him, raised her glass and touched his, the wine red liquid in the glass just blocked his malicious eyes, his eyes followed The shaking of the liquid broke into pieces...

From his throat, a series of chuckles overflowed, vague and satisfied, for her shyness, and the atmosphere of family drinking under the orange lights of the restaurant in the dim night.

Raising his hand, he raised his glass and drank it all, then turned the glass upside down for Shu Kai to see, with a smile on his face, "I drank it all up, you respect me! What do you say?"

Shu Kai has a proud personality and a good capacity for alcohol, so he drank it up without hesitation, then filled himself and his brother-in-law, and said to his sister, "Sister, I know you can drink, but you should drink less. Brother-in-law is drunk but no one will take care of him!"

Knowing Shu Kai's volume, Xia Wanlu covered Zuo Chenan's wine glass with her hand, "You better not drink so much, how can you drink more than Shu Kai?"

After drinking a glass of wine, his eyes seemed to be stained with the color of wine, and the sparkle was swaying. He stretched out his hand and pinched her face, "If I'm drunk, you can control my clothes!"

She blushed, bowed her head and ignored them.

He smiled more comfortably, and started drinking with Shu Kai.

She counted the rice grains one by one, and gradually lost her mind, the voices of the two men became farther and farther away, and her thoughts grew older and farther away...
