subtle trapping

The white snow gradually melted under the sun, and the bitter chill seemed to penetrate into the bones of the people layer by layer. It was obvious that it was almost spring, but the weather was still so cold.

Gu Lixia took care of grandma during the day, chatted with grandma, took time to chat with Lu Jinchu on WeChat, one time Gu Lixia put his phone on the table and went outside to help grandpa get a stand, when a message came, Gu Lixia's screen lit up After a while, grandma saw Gu Lixia's phone screen saver.

It was a photo of Lu Jinchu, with a bright smile and extremely beautiful eyes, making one feel like a beauty at a glance.

During dinner, grandma asked Gu Lixia, "Lixia, does Xiaolu have a date?"

Gu Lixia didn't know what grandma's sudden question meant, so he hesitated and said, "...Yes."

Grandma smiled very relaxed when she heard this, "Hey, now that I have it, I knew Xiaolu was so good, why didn't he have a date, hey, you can ask him, bring the date back for us to see , doesn’t Xiaolu like it here?”

Grandma smiled happily, but Gu Lixia felt uncomfortable and panicked in his heart. He knew that grandma was suspicious, and she had been suspicious since that time with Bai Yu, especially when Er Niang revealed this incident recently, grandma was also panicked. up.

Lu Jinchu has also been worried these few days. Although she chatted with Gu Lixia as heartlessly as someone who didn't know anything, but her heart was far less relaxed than on the surface.

The lights were dim, and the music in the bar was fragmented, wobbly and intermittent.

The wine in Bai Yu's hands was one glass after another, as if forcing himself to get drunk, the person sitting next to him said helplessly, "Why do you want to?"

Bai Yu looked bewildered, not sure if he was really drunk or not, held up his wine glass wobbly and said, "You don't understand."

"You torment yourself like this, but that person doesn't know," the person said lightly, "You have to be watched by someone watching your own bitterness. It's useless for you to put such suffering in front of me."

Bai Yu smiled wryly, pouring himself cup after cup, "I regret it...the only thing I regret when I grow up is him, you don't understand..."

The person next to him didn't care at all, he drank his wine calmly, and didn't agree with him if he didn't persuade him.

"I know he hates me in his heart now, but I'm not reconciled. The relationship between me and him for four years, four years, can't it be worth a person who has been together for one year? I don't believe it!" Bai Yu shouted hoarsely.

The people around turned their heads to look this way because of the screaming, Bai Yu held up the wine glass and drank miserably, but the person next to him was drinking without any concern at all, ignoring the eyes of the people around him .

"I'm not reconciled, if they separate, I will definitely make him fall in love with me again..." Bai Yu said madly, the person next to him glanced at him and said nothing.

Gu Lixia's vacation is coming to an end soon, which also means that he will go back to school soon, and his grandma's health is much better, but Gu Lixia is worried, he is afraid that Erniang will make trouble again when he goes back to school.

Gu Lixia felt that he had to talk to Erniang, but before he could talk, something happened at home.

Gu Lixia's second uncle was working in a brick factory, and something happened when he was about to leave work. When Gu Lixia's family found out, his second uncle had already been sent to the hospital. His grandparents rushed to the hospital in a hurry. The lady also panicked and hurried to the hospital.

Erbo's leg was injured at work. Although the hospital tried its best to rescue him, one leg was still seriously injured, and he was destined to be unable to behave like a normal person in the future. Er Niang cried and went to the brick factory to make trouble. Bian was very sincere and paid a sum of money as compensation. When the grandparents saw their second son lying on the bed, they felt very distressed.

Erniang hasn't been making a fuss these days, she cooks for Erbo every day, and her relationship with her grandparents has improved a lot. Although Gu Lixia doesn't like Erniang, Erbo was still very good to him before, so he also ran forward After running away, he took care of him. After all, Gu Yongfeng was still young and had nothing to do in junior high school, and Gu Qianqian was working outside again. The family didn't tell her to prevent him from worrying.

Grandma Gu gave her son bone soup every day, and Gu Lixia played the role of delivering meals every day. Every time the second uncle saw Lixia coming, he felt very guilty when he thought of what his second mother did. Lixia was afraid of seeing the second uncle. In this way, the second uncle never went out in this small mountain village in his whole life, honest and honest, Li Xia couldn't see him looking at him like that, so every time he put down the bone soup and exchanged greetings before leaving.

Once when Gu Lixia was delivering bone soup to his second uncle, he happened to hear his second uncle and his second mother talking inside. Gu Lixia's hand that was about to open the door paused for a moment, and stood outside the door without going in. Didn't he mean to listen? , but the words floated out, and he really heard them.

The second uncle said: "Lixia is a good boy, don't target him in the future, he has not been easy for so long, Xiaoxu and Wanning left so early, we should help, but in the end, not only did you not help, Instead..."

Erniang murmured, "I don't mean to make things difficult for him. I'm doing this for our family. Look at our family's conditions. Yongfeng doesn't study well. If our family has a house or something, Yong In the future, Feng will have the capital to marry a wife..."

"Then you can't keep looking at Lixia's house. It was left by Xiaoxu to Lixia. How will your parents and villagers think of you doing this? Doesn't this make our family look down?"

"Leave the good guys to you, and I only have to be the bad guys. Anyway, I'm already a shrew in the eyes of your family, and I don't care, as long as Yongfeng lives well, and I don't want that for nothing." The house, I didn’t say that I won’t give money, I just think that Lixia will definitely go to work in a big city in the future, and the house here will be idle, so it’s better to live in Yongfeng..."

"Hey, Yongfeng, don't worry, don't you still have me? Repair his house..."

"It's so easy to repair a house, look at you now..."

Gu Lixia listened to what they said, and actually understood it in his heart. He had actually thought about it, if Erniang insisted on grabbing the house, it would be a big deal for them to leave it to them. Although the thoughts left by his parents at that time, but... ...If the price paid was Lu Jinchu, Gu Lixia thought, Lu Jinchu cannot be replaced by anything, and is the most important treasure in his heart.

He felt that even if his parents were there, they would understand. Standing outside the door, Gu Lixia felt very uncomfortable.

Er Niang was still talking to Er Bo in the room, "Don't keep getting in trouble with Li Xia, what good is it for you, what's the point of spreading the word in the village, Li Xia is also a family with us..."

Er Niang lacked confidence, "I also heard from others, and that person said... Oh, forget it, let's not talk about it."

Gu Lixia's heart sank, and the guesses in his heart were almost inseparable. Gu Lixia went in and put the soup down, and after a while he said to Erniang, "Erniang, I want to say a few words to you." His expression was very serious, Like a grown-up.

Erniang was taken aback for a moment, a little frightened, her eyes flickering, "What are you talking about?"

Gu Lixia simply didn't play around, seeing that Erniang didn't want to go out with him, so he said directly in front of Erbo: "Did someone tell you about me on purpose before." After speaking, he looked at Erniang.

Erniang was a little flustered, and after a while she couldn't resist Gu Lixia's gaze, and said, "Yes, someone told me about it," paused, "I just said it casually..."

Gu Lixia knew it in his heart, and said calmly: "I really won't live in our house in the future, so it's okay to give it to you..."

Erniang was overjoyed, and looked up at Gu Lixia, only to see Gu Lixia's cold face, Gu Lixia said: "The premise is, I hope this matter ends here, and I don't want my grandparents to be stimulated again. Take this matter out to find fault, then I will not take into account that you are my second mother."

Erniang froze when she heard this, and said cautiously: "As long as you can guarantee that the house will return in the end...then I promise that I won't talk nonsense in the future, and I won't say it in front of your grandparents in the future."

"Don't tell your grandparents about this beforehand." Gu Lixia said.

Seeing that Lixia agreed, Erniang nodded impatiently, "I know."

The second uncle who was lying on the hospital bed wanted to talk, but he couldn't get in because of the atmosphere between the two of them. In the end, he looked at Lixia very guilty. Lixia looked at the second uncle and said, "Second uncle, take a good rest." , I'm going back to school in a few days, so I won't come to see you, grandpa and grandma will take better care of you from now on."

"What are you talking about? It's our responsibility." The second uncle was full of embarrassment, "I'm really sorry for making Li Xia feel wronged."

Gu Lixia left without saying anything more, Erniang was happy, and Erbo was ashamed.

It seemed that everything suddenly calmed down. The originally chaotic home became peaceful and peaceful because of this sudden accident. Gu Lixia inexplicably felt a little funny.

Gu Lixia is going back the next day. Grandpa and grandma can't wait to fill Gu Lixia with all the delicious food at home. I heard that Gu Lixia has three roommates. Grandma specially asked Lixia to bring a lot of homemade sausages and special products for him. them.

At night, grandma chatted with Li Xia, "Hey, Li Xia, this year made you worry, so many things happened at home."

"Grandma, what are you talking about?" Li Xia smiled, "We are a family."

Grandma said again: "I know Xiaolu is a good boy. He has helped you so much. We should thank him. Hey, I am really sorry this year. If he is willing to come over next year if he has time, bring his partner. Come together, your grandfather and I will make delicious food for him, as long as he doesn't dislike it."

Li Xia was speechless, nodded after a while, "Yes."

Before leaving the next day, grandma gave Gu Lixia a jar of pickled vegetables, Lu Jinchu's favorite kind of pickles, and grandma said, "Take it for Xiao Lu, and tell him not to fuss with grandma, grandma is confused."

Li Xia's eye sockets were suddenly sour and red, and the kimchi in his hand seemed to be heavy.

Sitting in the car, Li Xia felt extremely uncomfortable, desperately trying not to let tears fall, this can of kimchi seemed to be grandma's concern and worry, but Gu Lixia couldn't open her mouth.
