Life With You

Song Xi doesn't know how to cook, but it has to be said that she is a rising star in the cookery industry. Because of her career, she has almost paranoid requirements for the shape and size of cut things. If it is three centimeters long and four centimeters wide, it will never be allowed. There will be a difference of one cent and one centimeter.

Huo Jiamin stood next to Song Xi, watching her cut the fruit beautifully, and couldn't help but ask sincerely: Have you signed up for any class?

ah?

Huo Jiamin said: You cut too much.

Song Xi didn't even feel it, and said with a smile: Obsessive-compulsive disorder.

Huo Jiamin said: Whoever marries you will be truly blessed in eight lifetimes.

Song Xi shook her head repeatedly. She was a self-aware person. The key was not that someone who could get into the kitchen could cook. She was just a typical showman.

Yuan Bao turned his back to the two of them, listening to their conversation, and couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips in a playful way.

If Huo Jiamin knew who Song Xi's wife was, wouldn't she make her eyes pop out? The key is not to become a couple, it must be fate, sometimes, it is a sin.

Thinking about it, he turned to Huo Jiamin and said, Don't you want to bake egg tarts? Come here now and I will teach you how to make them.

Huo Jiamin immediately responded, and then said to Song Xi: Xiao Xi, please bring the fruit out to them. I want to learn from you.

Song Xi smiled, You go about your business, I'll deliver it to them.

After cutting all kinds of fruits, Song Xi divided them into two plates and brought them out of the kitchen to the chess and card room.

Chang Jingle was sitting facing the door. As soon as Song Xi came over, he was the first to see him. He raised his head and said, Thank you for your hard work.

Ruan Boyan and Tong Hao both looked at her, and the former said: Stop being busy, sit down and rest for a while.

Song Xi smiled and said, It doesn't matter. Yuanbao and Jiamin are preparing food in the kitchen. I can't help them much. I can only cut some fruit.

While she was talking, she moved two brown round chairs from the side to the mahjong table, placed a chair between each two people, and then put the fruit plate on it.

Everyone at the table thanked him, including Tong Hao, except George Sheng.

George Sheng glanced at the fruit plate and asked calmly: Are there no pears?

Song Xi said: Yes.

George Sheng said: Come over here.

Song Xi said subconsciously: You can't divide the pears.

George Sheng's eyes lifted from the mahjong table and fell on the face of Song Xi next to him.

Song Xi looked seriously and said simply: You can't eat pears separately. It's unlucky to separate pears.

Ruan Boyan raised the corners of his lips and smiled gently, I know, my family would tell us this when we were young.

Chang Jingle smiled and joked: Zhi Sheng has not been a normal person since he was a child. He has been given what he wants to eat quickly, and no one dares to steal it from him.

Song Xi said: If you want to eat it, I'll wash it for you.

After that, she looked at the others, Do you want it?

Chang Jingle and Ruan Boyan both shook their heads, and Tong Hao said, No need.

Song Xi turned around and left. Chang Jingle played out a piece of cake and said with a meaningful smile: Tsk, let's not separate...

George Sheng didn't answer, but he couldn't help but feel a numbness in his heart, as if he'd been electrocuted by a low-voltage electricity, and his concentration suddenly slackened.

Until Ruan Boyan followed up by playing a piece of two cakes and said, Have you met Sheng Zhengrong in private?

These words were spoken to George Sheng. George Sheng's momentary confusion dissipated in an instant, and he typed out a seven with a calm expression and replied: See you.

What a fool!

Before Tong Hao could play the cards, Chang Jingle pushed the cards in front of him. Counting the seven cards played by George Sheng, it happened to be a big deck of cards.

They played northern mahjong, and one family and three other families lost money. Tong Hao touched a card, pushed down his own card, and said regretfully: I was one step away from touching it myself.

Chang Jingle said with a smile: Who told Boss Qiao to be so generous today that he insisted on stuffing money into my hand? He knew I was a scumbag, but he still took out the money.

Ruan Boyan complained to George Sheng while giving him money, Do you owe him money?

George Sheng said expressionlessly: Give him a few stomachs, and he won't become the richest man.

No one knew that he was a little distracted just now.

Song Xi came in from outside, holding a bright yellow pear in her fair hands, walked to George Sheng, and handed it to him.

The mahjong machine was shuffling the cards automatically, and the other people had nothing to do to watch the fun. Chang Jingle said with a smile: It seems that this pear is really not a good sign. He just mentioned it and immediately lost a big one.

Before Song Xi could answer, she heard George Sheng say: Put it here.

Song Xi put the pears on the edge of the fruit plate, and Ruan Boyan asked, Can you play cards?

Song Xi responded: Yes, but I haven't played for a long time, so I probably have almost forgotten about it.

Chang Jingle said: You also play mahjong in Night City, right?

Um.

Chang Jingle stood up and said, Come and fight a few times.

Song Xi immediately said: No need...

I'm going to the bathroom, you play for me.

Song Xi rushed to the shelves at the last minute and sat across from George Sheng. After washing the mahjong, Ruan Boyan said: You can try playing this game. If you can't remember anything, feel free to ask.

Song Xi responded: Okay.

Before Song Xi officially started working at Xiehe University in her teens, she spent almost every weekend playing cards with Gu Dongxu, Han Chunmeng and a good friend. Later, when she started working, another good friend couldn't wait to get married right after graduating from college. After her husband went abroad, the four of them had a bad match.

Gu Dongxu had many friends, some of whom were also acquainted with Song Xi, but Song Xi was still unwilling to accept new people, and he was too busy with work in the hospital, so he gave up playing cards as a pastime without even realizing it.

The last time I played mahjong was probably two or three years ago. Shen Zhaoyi filled the three missing vacancies.

When she thought of Shen Zhaoyi, Song Xi immediately forced herself to skip over and her eyes fell on the card table. Her expression was focused, even a little serious and nervous.

Seeing this, Ruan Boyan smiled and said, It's okay, just relax.

Song Xi also smiled and said, I'm afraid of cheating and wasting your time.

George Sheng, who was across the table, suddenly said: If you cheat, you'll pay for it. It's not your money anyway.

Song Xi quickly raised his eyes and glanced at him, not knowing how to answer.

Chang Jingle said that he went out to use the bathroom, but he didn't know if he fell into the toilet and didn't come back. Song Xi didn't want to lose money to him, so he took the attitude he had during the examination, focusing on everything, calculating carefully, and striving to achieve perfect scores.

Tong Hao saw that all Song Xi was playing were notes and pancakes. It was not difficult to guess that her hand was full of ten thousand words. He tentatively played thirty thousand and Song Xi took it. In the next round, he played another eighty thousand. , Song Xi's stiff back finally relaxed, and when he pushed the card, he was stunned.

As the three families took out money, Song Xi whispered, Where's Chang Jingle?

Ruan Boyan said: Don't worry about him, I'll probably call my girlfriend.

Song Xi said: Why didn't he bring his girlfriend here?

Ruan Boyan replied with a smile but not a smile: We have never met his girlfriend. She changed her before I could remember her name. He knows it himself, so when he has a wife, he will bring her over to get to know her.

When the word wife was mentioned, Song Xi and George Sheng both felt guilty. The former was a little uneasy, while the latter kept his expression calm as usual, but he was aware of the nervousness in his heart.
