The days of living with vinegar

Under Nalan Rongxin's coercion, Chen Jiangjiang reluctantly turned the steering wheel and headed for that familiar yet unfamiliar home.

It is impossible not to be nervous.

Chen Jiangjiang's face was indifferent, but his palms were covered with sweat. Nalan Rongxin who was beside him noticed her expression and joked with a smile: "Are you scared?"

"What am I afraid of?"

Chen Jiangjiang smiled and shook his head pretending to be relaxed, while Nalan Rongxin was a little more serious when he heard the words, and persuaded gently: "No matter what, it's your family, and today is such a festive day. You can control your temper and don't get into conflict with anyone."

"I know." Chen Jiangjiang nodded and took a deep breath.

"It's here, it's here."

While Chen Jiangjiang was speaking, he parked the car firmly on the side. Nalan Rongxin looked up and saw two villas with similar styles close to each other. Happy words and balloons were posted on the door, which looked quite lively .

Just as Chen Jiangjiang and Nalan Rongxin got out of the car, someone stood at the door and waved to her, shouting loudly: "Jiang Jiang, you came so early, you are here to help you/mother, you are so sensible! "

Chen Jiangjiang approached Nalan Rongxin and whispered in Nalan Rongxin's ear: "This is my aunt, just my cousin's mother."

Nalan Rongxin nodded, and the two of them walked up to their aunt and said in unison——

"Hello, Auntie."

"I met my aunt."

My aunt is an extremely optimistic person, and the smile on her face is always hard to hide. At this time, when I heard Chen Jiangjiang and a strange girl calling aunt at the same time, I couldn't help feeling a little bit in my heart.

"Hey, come in quickly, the weather is getting colder now, it's very cold outside, come in quickly, you/Mom is in the kitchen!"

The aunt said, one hand in each hand, and sent the two of them in, but her mouth quietly moved to Chen Jiangjiang's ear: "Jiang Jiang, you don't know what day it is today, you are so careless to bring a girl home. , don’t make you/mother angry.”

"Aunt, you think too much."

As Chen Jiangjiang spoke, he dragged Nalan Rongxin from his aunt to his side, and introduced solemnly: "Her name is Nalan Rongxin, she is my good friend and my partner."

"Rong Xin met aunt."

Nalan Rongxin nodded slightly as he spoke, and greeted the person in front of him again.

My aunt responded cheerfully, but turned her head and pulled Chen Jiangjiang aside involuntarily, and said with a sad face: "I knew the reason why you refused to get married was not that simple, but today is really not the time, You/mother is getting old and can't stand your tossing, restrain yourself, don't let you/mother see any flaws, aunt will help you."

Chen Jiangjiang spread her hands dumbfounded when she heard the words, and quickly explained: "Auntie, you really think too much, Rong Xin is really just my good friend, she is not from the local area, and she doesn't have many friends, so I brought her here."

My aunt curled her lips, showing an expression that I understood. She reached out and patted Chen Jiangjiang's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Aunt understands, the definition of a good friend you mentioned is different..."

"What's different?"

"If you are both good friends, why don't you bring Zhang Xiaoxiao over? I remember you have known each other for more than 10 years, and the relationship is so good. Why don't you bring her over on such a happy day? This girl has a sharp mouth. If you bring her here, maybe you can say something nice to your parents, that would be great."

The more my aunt talked, the more she worked hard, so Chen Jiangjiang could only nod perfunctorily: "Mmmmm..."

"Sister, are you here?"

Zhao Na's voice came from behind the door unexpectedly, Chen Jiangjiang seemed to see a savior, walked up to Zhao Na, hugged her arm and said: "Sister, long time no see, sister really miss you, let's go!" Come on, let's go in and talk!"

As Chen Jiangjiang spoke, he stretched out his hand to grab Nalan Rongxin's hand, and pulled her inside together.

At this time, Zhao Na glanced at the hands they were holding, then looked at Nalan Rongxin's face, and said suspiciously: "Sister, this is not the girl I met when I went to look for you a few months ago. Well, she was still living in the same room with you, and you haven't sent her away yet?"

As soon as this remark came out, both Auntie and Nalan Rongxin looked at Chen Jiangjiang. Chen Jiangjiang's eyes widened in astonishment, and he looked sideways at Zhao Na: "Nonsense! You're wrong, let's go in and talk."

"This girl looks so good-looking, how could I remember wrongly?"

Zhao Na's response left Chen Jiangjiang speechless, so she had to quickly push the person in, intending to explain to Zhao Na after avoiding her aunt.

Unexpectedly, my aunt chased after her every step of the way, and there was no chance to explain.

"Sister, don't blame me for not reminding you, it's too dangerous to stay with someone with mental problems for a long time..."

"Shh, keep your voice down, let's not talk about this today, my sister?"

Zhao Na wanted to say something else, but hearty laughter came from the kitchen not far away, followed by a familiar figure.

Ms. Zhao Fenfen——Chen Jiangjiang's biological mother.

"Who's here? I'm so happy to hear you laughing."

After Zhao Fenfen said this, she realized that the person who came was her daughter whom she hadn't seen for nearly three years, and the smile on her face froze in an instant.

Chen Jiangjiang met Zhao Fenfen's eyes, and couldn't help trembling, why didn't she realize that Ms. Zhao Fenfen had so many wrinkles and so many white hairs on her face before.

Isn't Ms. Zhao Fenfen the favorite to dress up and care about her own image the most? How did she look so haggard and desolate?

The tip of Chen Jiangjiang's nose was sour, and she felt that her anger in the past three years was a bit too much.

But even so, she still couldn't open her mouth to say more, she could only squeeze out a word stiffly and trembling: "Mom..."

"You're much thinner."

When Zhao Fenfen spoke, her eyes were already red, Chen Jiangjiang looked away, she couldn't watch this tear-jerking scene.

"I saw my aunt."

Nalan Rongxin came out to say hello at this time, which attracted Zhao Fenfen's attention. She had never seen such a beautiful girl before, so she couldn't help but sized her up and asked, "Who are you?"

"I'm Jiang Jiang's friend and the partner of the studio she founded now. You can call me Rong Xin."

Zhao Fenfen nodded, and hurriedly invited the person to the sofa: "Rong Xin, sit here."

While Zhao Fenfen and Nalan Rongxin were walking towards the living room, Zhao Na quickly grabbed Chen Jiangjiang and asked, "Isn't she mentally ill? Why is she still your partner?"

The aunt on the side also moved her ears curiously, waiting for Chen Jiangjiang's explanation. Chen Jiangjiang glanced at her aunt in embarrassment, and smiled and pushed Zhao Na.

"Misunderstanding, that's a misunderstanding. I can't explain a sentence or two clearly. I'll explain it to you after a while."

Zhao Na nodded: "Okay, I'm busy too, so I don't have time to talk to you, so go talk to Auntie."

As Zhao Na spoke, she pushed the person into the living room, pressed her on the sofa, and left with satisfaction.

When Chen Jiangjiang entered the living room, he clearly heard Nalan Rongxin and Ms. Zhao Fenfen talking and laughing, but as soon as he took a seat, the two stopped talking, and the air was suddenly filled with embarrassment.

Chen Jiangjiang pretended not to care and wiped the glass. Ms. Zhao Fenfen at the side glanced at her and continued to question Nalan Rongxin.

"Xiao Xin, your accent doesn't look like a local, so you are renting a house now?"

Nalan Rongxin responded with a smile: "I like this very much, and I plan to take root here, so I bought a villa in Junyue Longshan a while ago, and Jiang Jiang and I usually go back to live there after work, the location is Z -Building 1, Auntie, if you are free, you can come and drink tea."

Hearing this, Zhao Fenfen looked up at Nalan Rongxin in surprise: "Junyue Longshan? You two live together now?"

Nalan Rongxin was worried that Zhao Fenfen would be angry, so she hurriedly explained: "We slept separately. After all, we opened a studio together, so it's more convenient to live together."

"Oh, like this."

Zhao Fenfen nodded slowly, looked at the expressionless Chen Jiangjiang from the corner of her eye, and continued to ask: "Then what do your parents do?"

When Chen Jiangjiang heard this question, she finally had a reaction. She was afraid that Nalan Rongxin would be too honest in front of Ms. Zhao Fenfen and would not lie, so she quickly opened her mouth to help and answered, "She is an orphan."

Chen Jiangjiang was a little anxious when she said this, Zhao Fenfen couldn't help frowning: "Why do you speak, can't you be more tactful?"

"It's okay, Auntie." Nalan Rongxin hurriedly answered, smiling, "Jiang Jiang didn't mean anything malicious."

"Working with someone with such a bad temper like her is hard work, isn't it?"

Zhao Fenfen asked tentatively, and Nalan Rongxin met her probing gaze and shook her head solemnly: "No such thing, Jiang Jiang is the kindest, purest and hardest-working girl I have ever seen. In my eyes, She's the best in the world..."

When Nalan Rongxin said this, he caught Zhao Fenfen's slightly squinted eyes, and hurriedly said, "The best, partner."

"Oh, is that so?"

Zhao Fenfen nodded slightly, but there was a hint of disbelief in her eyes. She took a deep look at Nalan Rongxin, and broke the casserole and asked, "Then do you have a date?"

"not yet."

Nalan Rongxin shook her head, Zhao Fenfen's eyes jumped, she smiled and took her hand and said, "Auntie can introduce you, I promise you will be satisfied."

"No need, Auntie, I don't plan to fall in love at this stage, I just want to work hard."

"Hey, if you're busy with your career, you won't be able to find a partner, so what kind of girl do you like, tell auntie, and auntie will help you introduce her!"

After Zhao Fenfen said this, everyone present was startled. When the aunt who had just entered the living room heard this, she didn't catch the orange in her hand and rolled to Chen Jiangjiang's feet.

Only then did Zhao Fenfen come to her senses, and chuckled: "Haha, I made a slip of the tongue, what auntie means is, what kind of boy do you like, auntie can help you introduce, but for a girl as good as you, an ordinary boy is really good enough." Not on you."

Nalan Rongxin thought for a while, and answered her: "In fact, there is no definition standard. If you have to find a reference mark, then I think Jiang Jiang's character is very good."

Chen Jiangjiang was still immersed in Zhao Fenfen's slip of the tongue just now. She bent over to pick up the oranges one by one.
