Hearing the sound of the door opening, Ye Shufang came back to his senses, turned around and saw the figure of her brother-in-law pushing the door in. After a long time, Ye Shu raised her head and looked up at the starry sky.

Standing still for a while, Ye Shu bent down to put the watermelon in a bag and carried the plush doll in her other hand, walking in unhurriedly under the moonlight, followed by the courtyard door being slowly closed .

Entering the room, the bright light made Ye Shu see the man at a glance. At this time, he was standing on the opposite balcony with his back to Ye Shu. He couldn't see his expression clearly. His left hand was in his pocket, and his right hand was on and off, with blue smoke Curly rising, the back is a little lonely.

Ye Shu didn't speak, just glanced at it before turning her gaze, put the doll on the sofa, and walked into the kitchen with the bag containing the watermelon.

In the kitchen, Ye Shu was carrying the bag all the time, her gaze was dull, and after a while, she remembered the purpose of coming in, took out the watermelon from the bag, put it in the sink to wash, and after cleaning, Ye Shu put the watermelon on the chopping board , cut a knife, two halves.

Ye Shu picked up the spoon and walked out with half of the watermelon in her arms. She saw that the man was still standing there, and some soot had fallen on the clean ground beside him.This was the first time he had seen a man smoking.Ye Shu walked to the dining table and sat down, and said softly: "There is still half of the watermelon in the kitchen, which is left for you." After speaking, she dug out a large spoonful of bright red watermelon flesh and ate it into her mouth.Because the watermelon was rolled on the ground for a while before, the flesh of the watermelon was a little soft at this time. Although the taste was not bad, it still didn't taste that way.

Hearing the sound, Shen Dixuan turned around and saw the young man eating watermelon spoonful after spoonful with his head down. Shen Dixuan took a deep breath of the cigarette and let it out lightly. The lingering smoke curled up and blurred his vision. He said: " I brought Xiuyuan back on purpose."

Ye Shu, who was about to put the spoon into her mouth, slapped her hands, and said after a while, "Really?" After that, she continued to eat watermelon as if she had never heard of it.

After the smoke cleared, Shen Dixuan whispered, "Sorry."

When half of the watermelon was eaten, Ye Shu lost his appetite, sighed lightly, still lowered his head, and said slowly: "Actually, you don't need to say sorry to me. If you really want to say it, it should be me who said it. Taking advantage of your tolerance for me, you said those things to Sister Xiuyuan unscrupulously." The words fell, and he said in a subtle way: "If we really want to care about it, why aren't we using each other?"

The man looked at the young man's side face for a moment, the cigarette had already burned to ashes.When he was about to say something, the young man stood up slowly, walked into the kitchen with the melon rind in his hands, and when he came out, he picked up his change of clothes and walked into the bathroom.I never looked at a man when I was a teenager.

In the middle of the night, Ye Shu still couldn't fall asleep, lying on the sofa staring at the dim ceiling in a daze by the moonlight.At this moment, he is very disgusted with himself who is selfish and willful. Because his sister broke up with a man, he came here alone to disturb others and create troubles in other people's lives. In order to clear the obstacles for his sister, he himself hindered others from pursuing happiness , although on the surface it is for my sister, but in fact, what qualifications do I have?He even disregards the feelings of others for his own selfishness, and even hurts others.

This night, Ye Shu watched the moonlight quietly entering the house, and listened to the sound of frogs outside the window. When the morning light was faint and the day was rising, Ye Shu felt sleepy, and fell asleep unknowingly. When I woke up, it was already noon.

In the empty room, only the sound of Ye Shu's footsteps walking up and down.

Ten minutes later, Ye Shu picked up the key and went out, found a restaurant to eat, and then took a taxi to the old man's watermelon stand.

That afternoon, Ye Shu told the old man her plan, and after several discussions, Ye Shu took the two watermelons that had been cut up and took the initiative to sell them in nearby restaurants.

At the beginning, several restaurant owners were willing to give Ye Shu some time to listen to him because of his exquisite appearance, but in the end they all politely told him that they already had a regular supplier and they didn't need it for now.Ye Shu was not discouraged, and continued to make persistent efforts. He continued to make targeted inquiries one by one along the street, and visited many restaurants one after another. Finally, after tasting the watermelon sold by the old man, the owner of a relatively large restaurant negotiated the price and bought it all at once. After buying half a carload of watermelons, Boss Wang enthusiastically offered to help the old man recommend the remaining half carload of watermelons to a relative who also owns a restaurant. In this way, the old man has a regular buyer of watermelons in the future.

Before going out, Boss Wang gave Ye Shu a thumbs up, and said to the old man, "Your grandson is really sensible and capable. He knows how to help the family at such a young age. He is not like my son. He is a prodigal. I only know how to go out and play around all day long, so it’s not bad if I don’t help.”

The old man looked at Ye Shu with a smile, and when he was about to explain to the boss, Ye Shu hurriedly replied politely: "Thank you, Uncle Wang, for your compliment. In fact, we are forced by life. Your son has such an excellent father like you." It's his good fortune."

The potbellied Boss Wang nodded with a smile, and said with pride on his face: "I'm not afraid of your jokes when I say it. Sometimes even I envy my son for having such an excellent father like me. Haha" for a while After joking, Boss Wang couldn't help sighing again, and said, "Hey! If my son is half of yours, no, even if it's a tenth of his appearance and understanding, I'll be content."

Under Boss Wang's enthusiasm to stay, Ye Shu stayed with the old man for a while longer. Finally, because the clerk came to him and said something important, Boss Wang left unsatisfied, and told Ye Shu to leave before leaving. Come and sit down if you have nothing to do.

After coming out, the old man kept holding Ye Shu's hand and thanked him tremblingly, with tears in his eyes.

Ye Shu wiped away the old man's tears and said, "Actually, I didn't help much. I just talked about it. The main thing is your watermelon."

The two talked while walking, and after a while, Ye Shu's cell phone rang. Seeing that the caller ID was from her sister, Ye Shu hurriedly answered the call, smiling sweetly: "Sister, do you miss me?"

"Not only do I miss you, but you also miss us!" After hearing her younger brother's voice on the phone call, Ye Shan gradually spread a smile on her face, and without waiting for Ye Shu to reply, she asked directly: "Have you missed us in a week?" I saw you, and I didn’t see you calling back, how are you playing with your friends? I’m afraid you’re all happy and don’t think about leaving, right?”

Ye Shu hurriedly said: "No way, I miss you very much, sister."

Ye Shan also said that on purpose just now, just to scare him, and the two of them talked nonsense again, before Ye Shan asked: "Xiao Shu, when are you coming back?"

When to go back?In the past few days, Ye Shu has never thought about going back. Suddenly, when his sister mentioned it like this, he was a little at a loss and didn't know how to answer, but he did feel a little homesick.

Seeing that her little brother had been silent, Ye Shan asked eagerly, "Why did you suddenly stop talking? Did something embarrass you? If that's the case, you can actually..."

Hearing her sister's anxious words on the phone, Ye Shu hurriedly said: "Sister, there is nothing to embarrass, I just, just feel a little homesick."

When Ye Shan heard this was the reason, she laughed and said softly, "If you're homesick, come back early. I just had a video call with my parents yesterday and told them that you and your friends went on a trip."

Ye Shu missed her parents and asked, "Did Mom and Dad say anything?"

Ye Shan replied: "I just miss us, let's stay for a while while you are on summer vacation."

Ye Shu lowered her head and looked at her shoes, feeling that her throat was congested and uncomfortable, and after a while she whispered, "I miss them too."

"Then when are you coming back?"

Ye Shu didn't speak.

Ye Shan relented and said, "Is it because I haven't had enough fun with my friends? It doesn't matter. If you want to play for a few more days, you can play for a few more days. Anyway, the summer vacation is only a few days away, and there is still more than a month left."

Ye Shu shook her head, kicked the gravel on the side of the road with her toes, and said, "It's almost done, but there's really nothing interesting to do."

"So you can come back in two days?"

"Ah."

"If you really don't have enough fun, just go and play. Our family's Xiao Shu just needs to be happy every day, and I don't rush these two days anyway."

"No, I really enjoyed it."

"Okay then, when will you come back, Xiao Shu?"

Ye Shu looked up at the sky, just in time for a flock of birds to pass by, and said with a little melancholy: "Tomorrow."

"Okay, my sister will stay at home all day tomorrow to prepare delicious food and wait for you to come back. Remember to let me know when you leave tomorrow, and then we will go to the United States the day after tomorrow."

"Ah."

After hanging up the phone, seeing the old man looking at her with a smile, Ye Shu felt a little embarrassed.
