The old man has not yet reached the age of retirement, and he is still corrupt. There are good wine and tonics sent by others around the house. The old lady has been a housewife all her life, but she always fights against the old man, and she only loves her son.After returning home, the old man inquired about Ao Ao's recent situation with sneering words, expecting to hear from his son that everything was not going well, but unfortunately Ao Ao was so troubled abroad that it was difficult to be humble, the old man has always been Don't give up, in his eyes, the only way to go into politics is the right way, he and Qi Ji are both walking crooked ways.

Aunt Zhang cooked a table of delicious dishes, so lunch was postponed a bit.

The old lady asked Aunt Zhang to tidy up his room and replace everything with new ones. Mr. Ao said that just tidy up casually. Anyway, he will move out in a few days and plans to find a place closer to work.He doesn't blush when he tells a lie, where did he get a job when he just returned to China?

The old lady was not happy, and tried to persuade her left and right, but found that her son was too old to stay, and she didn't live at home until she was married.The old man spoke now: "He lives wherever he likes, and I am happy to be quiet when he is not at home making trouble." The old lady gave the speaker a blank look, and the people next to him pretended not to see it.Mr. Ao wanted to laugh, but he held back. He gnawed on a piece of pork ribs happily, thinking that even if he was not around, these two old treasures would not be lonely anymore.

After eating, I chatted with the old lady. The old man sat on the sofa and didn't go to work. When he heard the mother and son talking, he would occasionally interject a sentence or two.He knew in his heart that since he hadn't come back for a long time, the old man must be thinking too hard. He was lukewarm on the surface, but he must be very happy in his heart, otherwise he wouldn't even miss work.

While chatting and chatting, we talked about lifelong events. He is 27 this year, and he is not too young anywhere. I only brought him home a few times, but he didn't develop any further.Mr. Ao said, what's the rush? Those with conditions like their son should wait until they are in their thirties to find a girl in their twenties.The old lady slapped her son's arm and scolded with a smile: "You are not afraid of others saying that you are an old man eating tender grass."

Now the old man is on the same front with him: "Don't talk about thirty, Aozi is forty. It's not too much to marry. Man, 40 years old is the best age." After finishing speaking, he took a sip of tea, He raised his eyes and secretly glanced at the old lady.

"Hmph, then you are fifty, shouldn't you marry someone who is 28? Yes, I will move out with my son tomorrow. You can find someone who is 28. It will be a good match." The old lady turned around and turned her back to her. Old man, with an expression that doesn't bother to look at you any more.

The old man shook his head and let out a long sigh: "Tell me about you, you're talking about Aozi. Why did it come to me? When did I say I'm going to marry someone who is 28?" Completely sidelined by the old lady, knowing that she would never be able to please her again, she put down her teacup and went into the study resentfully.Seeing Lao Ao went in, the old lady scolded him in a low voice. Mr. Ao could only nod his head and smile regretfully. Everything the old lady said was right.

Mr. Ao was quarreled by the old lady all afternoon, and was dragged out again in the evening, saying that he wanted to buy clothes for him.He was particularly afraid of buying clothes with the old lady, she liked to greet him with any style, and praised his son as a clothes rack when he saw people, and he looked good on anything.Thinking that he hadn't been with her properly for such a long time, he fiddled with her. Anyway, before the luggage was sent back, he bought a few clothes to replace.

Passing by the optical shop, I bought a new pair of glasses, and replaced the gold-rimmed glasses with black frames. This time, I changed my whole person into another look.Then I put on the jeans and shirt I just bought. Compared with the one I just came back from yesterday, I always feel a few years younger.

The past few days have been considered leisurely, Qi Ji is quite sensible, knows that he is filial, and hasn't looked for him these few days. He just gave him his wallet and left, and he didn't even have a meal.Later, Hao Fang called him. Mr. Ao didn't remember to save his phone number that day, so seeing that the caller showed an unfamiliar number, but it was a number from this city, he hesitated for a while before answering the call.

"Hello, is this Ao Ao?" After pressing the answer button, such a tentative question came from the other end of the phone. The voice was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was.

"Well, what's the matter." I didn't dare to ask who the other party was, I was afraid that they knew someone, and if they knew that I didn't save the number, I would definitely feel uncomfortable.

"Are you free now? If you are free, come over and I'll take you to see a house." The other party said.

As soon as he mentioned looking at the house, Mr. Ao realized who the person on the other end of the phone was, and finally overlapped the voice with Hao Fang's face, so he quickly replied that he was free, and he was free now.Thinking about not moving out again, the old lady almost escorted him to go on a blind date.

After making an appointment to meet somewhere, I hung up the phone and changed into the clothes the old lady had just bought. The upper body was a shirt with wooden buttons, although it was thin, it had long sleeves.He has always had a habit of adding a vest to everything he wears. Whether it is a sweater or a sweater, he always feels that there is something wrong with not wearing a vest. This is probably inherited from Lao Ao's habit. Both father and son are the same, but All vests that are worn close to the body must be prepared in all seasons.He wore a pair of light-colored jeans on his lower body, a pair of dark brown leather shoes with frosted surfaces on his feet, and put on the black-rimmed thick-rim glasses that he just matched, and then he went out with a brand new look.

In fact, Mr. Ao didn't change his clothes grandly to meet Hao Fang, but because he happened to have a high school reunion at night, and those who went out now didn't plan to come back, so he simply changed his clothes.When I went to meet my classmates in high school, I would definitely be scolded for wearing a suit and leather shoes formally, and it would be too casual to wear a home dress, but this suit on my body is just right, and it also looks young and handsome, which is just right. His slightly mature face.There may be unmarried female classmates among his high school classmates. Although he is not in a hurry to marry a wife, it is also a gentleman's etiquette to maintain a good image in front of lesbians.

Mr. Ao felt good about himself and arrived at the place where he had agreed to meet with Hao Fang. He didn’t feel much in the taxi just now. After getting out of the car, he regretted why he didn’t wear cooler clothes. Although it was already afternoon, The sun was still scorching hot, and after only a few steps, sweat broke out on my back.The two met on the street where they had supper last time. Hao Fang went there first, and he could recognize him from a long distance because of his slender figure, so they walked straight towards him.

As soon as they walked side by side, the height became clear at a glance. Mr. Ao looked at him a little, and this Hao Fang was only two or three centimeters shorter than himself. Presumably no one took care of him, and he must have eaten casually, or the same sentence, the corn stalks in the field They are stronger than him.Walking with a slightly arched back, like a developing sixteen or seventeen-year-old child, the joints are moved too fast, and the body can never be straight.

"This house is rented by an old man who drives a tricycle with me. It has three bedrooms and one living room. His house occupies two rooms, and there is still one space left. He said that if you want, you can give you the master bedroom, which has a shower. In this way, you can also try to be quiet." Hao Fang walked away on his own without looking back.

"Shared renting?" Mr. Ao frowned, with a troubled expression on his face.

Only then did She Fang turn his head, seeing that they were all downstairs, he stopped: "What's wrong?"

It wasn't that he was a coquette, and of course it wasn't that Hao Fang didn't understand his request for renting a house. It was just that he was a little hasty when he told him that he wanted to rent a house, and he got out of the car before finishing some words.Mr. Ao is in a dilemma right now. If he doesn't go up, it will be a disappointment to his good intentions. He took so much effort to find a house for him. He didn't even look at it. Isn't that a bit too much.But it’s meaningless to go up. Mr. Ao definitely won’t rent this house. The family lives there, and he has to live in the same house with another family he doesn’t know. How awkward and uncomfortable it feels , It's better to live in your own home than this.

After thinking about it, I finally decided to be more frank, and said honestly: "I think it's better to forget it, you have mentioned the family they live in, it's too noisy. I originally wanted to live alone, I didn't think about it. Shared rent."

Hao Fang squinted at Mr. Ao and remained silent for a long time. The expression on his face was not angry but certainly not happy.Mr. Ao thought it was a bad move, he must be angry, and he blamed himself for not being clear about what he said at the beginning, and those who didn't know thought he was teasing others.

"Then go back. Since you don't plan to rent, there is nothing to see. You go back with me, my house is nearby, and I will take you back with a small three-wheeler later." As soon as Hao Fang said this, Mr. Ao felt in his heart Immediately he was relieved, and he didn't seem to be very angry after hearing the tone. If he was really angry, could he take the initiative to say that he would send himself home?

The sun was about to go down at this moment, but the road outside was still scorching hot, and the two of them walked by the roadside storefronts, and occasionally there would be a gust or two of air-conditioning wind, which made it even more uncomfortable to mix with the heat.At this time, he was a little envious of Hao Fang. He only wore a vest on his upper body, breeches on his lower body, and a pair of splints on his feet.Look at yourself again, long pants and long sleeves. After staying in Melbourne for a long time, I have forgotten that my city is a big furnace, so I don’t know how to wear it to cool off.

After a while, I went downstairs to Hao Fang's house. I looked at the person in front of me. I was overheated, and my chest was soaked in sweat. In such a hot day, I have to wear a vest under my shirt. I don't know. What does this person think.

"Would you like to go to my house first? Have a drink and cool down." Hao Fang tried to ask, not because he felt that his house had too many drinks, but just looking at the person in front of him, he warmed it up for him.

He invited him right at the right time, and Mr. Ao was just looking for a cool place to drill, so he said impatiently, "Lead the way, I'm about to suffer from heat stroke."

When I went upstairs and opened the door, there was a gust of cold air in the house, but I could clearly feel that the cold air was not from the air conditioner.Mr. Ao stood at the door, waiting for the master to bring him a pair of slippers. Who knew that Hao Fang walked in directly, and the sentimental family didn't even drag the floor.Yes, he stepped into the house and closed the door.

The small two-bedroom house looks like an old house, but it is well decorated.I looked around and took a look at the environment here. The geographical environment of this house has created this summer resort in the hot summer. I saw that there are tall buildings on both sides of the east and west, which not only block the sun from rising in the east, but also avoid the setting of the sun in the west. , This house has eight floors, and Hao Fang's house is on the second floor. The downstairs is the road, and there are thick and leafy locust trees planted on both sides of the road, which occasionally attracts a cool breeze.Mr. Ao stood at the window, enjoying the refreshing coolness with his eyes closed,

Hao Fang took a vertical electric fan out of his room, plugged it in and turned on the biggest fan to face Mr. Ao.Turning around, he walked to the refrigerator again, took two cans of Pepsi, and handed one can to Mr. Ao.

He took the Coke, thanked him, pulled off the ring, and drank half of the can in one go. He drank too quickly, and had the urge to hiccup.He turned his head and glanced at Hao Fang, who was drinking Coke with his head up. Beads of sweat hung on his neck, and his throat was heaving up and down.

Mr. Ao took off his shirt, put the clothes on the chair casually, stood up and walked around again.Just now, when I went into the room to get the fan, I left the door open, and the messy furnishings inside immediately caught Mr. Ao's eyes, and the smell of watercolor was not too strong or too weak.The room is very large, except for the necessary furniture, there are some painting tools everywhere, and the iconic plaster statue of David is placed on the bay window, the used and unused drawing paper on the floor, small There is still a basin of sewage in the bucket. It seems that the brushes were not thrown out in time after washing.There is a triangular easel standing in the corner. On the easel is an unfinished semi-finished product. It is a brightly colored landscape painting. It looks good from such a distance. It is not much different from the decorative paintings on the market. .Suddenly remembered that Hao Fang said that he was studying painting at the last meal, but he was quite professional unexpectedly.

Hao Fang leaned on the chair, and didn't seem to mind this man's visits at all. He was a simple person, and there was nothing shameful in his life. If he wanted to see it, let him watch it.I just feel that he is a bit strange, he is full of an unattainable aura like a distant mountain surrounded by mist, but his every move is so down-to-earth, he is not at all picky that should be commensurate with his aura.Looking at this person's appearance, if his complexion was not too fair, he would definitely have a very cool and manly face.The figure is also very good. Seen from the back, she has a narrow waist and arms, and two straight long legs. If she doesn't have good genes, she can't have such a well-proportioned figure even if she goes to the gym every day.

On the night of the first meeting, He Yu often praised this man in front of his eyes.Hao Fang asked him to kick Qi Jifang to chase him, and He Yu said that he would only engage in straight men if he was mentally ill.Hao Fang asked him how he knew that Ao Ao was a straight man, and He Yu said that he was born 20 years ago, and it has been 20 years since he was born, so how can he be gay if he has no sense of smell?

"You live alone?" Mr. Ao asked.

This sudden sentence not only broke the long-lasting silence between the two parties, but also brought Hao Fang back to his senses.He nodded and said, "I've always lived alone."

"Speaking of renting a house, I think your place is quite suitable for me."

Hao Fang squinted at him, not sure why he said such a sentence suddenly.Mr. Ao went on to say: "If Qi Ji is not gay, I will make do with him. Although we have been brothers for so many years, I still have to guard against him."After speaking, he drank another Coke.

Hao Fang chuckled, thinking that it was only natural for this person to be so confident, but if he said so, he would have to be on guard against He Yu.

"By the way, to be honest, do you want to give me a room in this house." Mr. Ao straightened his expression.

This time, Hao Fang really caught Hao Fang's attention. It's not that he didn't think about renting out a room, but he was afraid that he would find someone who didn't know his background, and then some unnecessary things would happen.But if it is Ao Ao, it is not ignorance. It is unnecessary to worry about the relationship between him and Qi Ji. Of course, it is not worried that he can't pay the rent and run away overnight. It's just this deserted house. Living alone for such a long time, it would always feel a little uncomfortable to suddenly have an extra person.

"It's too sudden." Hao Fang said.

"I didn't ask you to agree now, you can think about it first. I observed it just now. It's just your house. In summer, you can even save the air-conditioning fee. The location is also good, and it may not be cheap to rent. You It’s a waste to say that there are two rooms in this house, and it’s a waste to have one more room. Besides, you have to drive the ferry to go to school.

What he said was right, and his analysis was logical. Hao Fang shouldn't have rented out this place.But it would be weird to agree just like that. The most important thing is the relationship between the two. It’s okay if they are strangers.But it can't be called cooked or raw, after all, they had a meal together, and it was too polite or too raw.

"Let me think about it." The old man often said that there is no harm in thinking about everything.

He said he had thought about it, so he stopped pestering him and said, "That's fine, call me when you think about it."
