Landlord, why is there no water?

When I was young, the supermarket sent two Spring Festival couplets.

"A little bit to the left..." The landlord supported my waist.

I stood on the bench and posted Spring Festival couplets at the door: "Is it symmetrical?"

"Yes, it's fine." After posting, the landlord hugged my waist again and picked me up from the bench, "Xiaowan, you are so light."

"No, I'm quite fleshy." I said, "Maybe it's a small frame?"

The landlord weighed me again: "You still have to eat more, it's too light."

"I've been gaining weight recently." Since I partnered with the landlord, I have basically eaten three meals as expected.

"Not fat." The landlord put me down, "Shall we go out to eat today, or eat at home?"

"For the new year, let's eat at home."

"Okay, I'll go wash the vegetables."

When I was cooking, the landlord would help me by my side, washing and chopping vegetables and so on.

Here in Shencheng, the 24th of the twelfth lunar month and the night before New Year’s Eve are called Xiaonian. Xiaonian has different times in different places, but it is probably within this range.Our company is on holiday today, the day before New Year's Eve.

"Xiao Wan, aren't you going back this year?" Xiao Jian, a fellow villager, asked me. Every time she went home, she would call me.

"No, I wish you a smooth journey."

Little Jane sighed. "Look, my house and yours are only one or two hours' drive away. Do you have anything for me to bring?"

I thought about it and shook my head.

"Have you bought the ticket yet?" Xiao Yuan came over with a cup of coffee.

"I've already bought it."

Xiao Yuan rubbed his head, feeling a little bad. "I didn't buy it, and I'm still trusting someone."

"Who told you not to rush, I reminded you last month."

"When I think of going back to meet my relatives for ten days, I feel very repelled." Xiao Yuan rubbed the back of his head carelessly, "Forget it, if I can't buy it, I won't go back."

Xiao Yuan took the last sip of coffee, threw it into the trash can and sighed again. "Hey, I still have to go back, you guys take it as me to vent my negative emotions."

When I go home during the Spring Festival, even if I don’t like the arrangement at home, I still have to go home to see my parents and grandparents.

"Xiaowan, what are you thinking?" The landlord switched to Xiaohuo, and her hand fell on my shoulder.

"Well...something in the company."

"It's already a holiday, take a rest." The landlord squeezed my shoulder, "Don't be so tense."

"Yeah." I nodded.

When eating, I held the bowl and looked at the landlord in front of me.

Momo searched for me that day, and found a girl who behaved intimately with the landlord.The girl's information disappeared two or three years ago, and the last picture displayed was a cemetery, which meant that the girl named Qin Wei had passed away.Moreover, the landlord has a section of information that is blank.In the past few days, I've been thinking about it. The water-cement ratio seems to have mentioned that there is a girl who likes the landlord. Is it Qin Wei?Is the landlord and her in a romantic relationship?Didn't the landlord never fall in love?

"Sister Youqing, it's a new year again, do you have any plans?"

"I'm planning..." The landlord spoke only after the meal was swallowed. She held the chopsticks and pressed them against her chin. "Work hard, and if you have time, I want to travel."

"What about you?" The landlord turned his head and looked at me.

"I want to take some certificates." I said, "If possible, I want to take a postgraduate entrance examination."

"The postgraduate entrance examination is fine." The landlord said, "It's just that you are too busy with work, I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it."

"It's okay, I think I'm still on the rise."

"really envy you."

"what?"

"Energetic." The landlord blinked.

"I'm not as energetic as my sister. I have both outdoor sports and travel." After I started working, I seldom travel outside, and business trips are enough for me.

"If we have time, we can travel together."

Traveling with the landlord... Can you sleep in the same room...

"Well..." Facing the landlord, I have no principles or positions.

"Where do you want to go?"

"Listen to my sister."

The landlord seemed to think of something, and smiled: "Then we travel, and we shouldn't quarrel."

"I won't quarrel with my sister." You are the landlord who holds the power over my life and death.The new year is here again, and I want to renew my contract with the landlord.

"There is a joke on the Internet that the best way to ruin a relationship is to travel with the other party."

"But the fastest way to promote a relationship is to travel. You see, newlyweds have honeymoon trips..."

The landlord laughed out loud, "What are you talking about?"

Damn what did I say, actually talking about honeymoon travel, why did I pick such a topic that I would blush myself. "No... I'm just paraphrasing Mr. Qian Zhongshu's words, if you want to get married..."

It's over, I feel like the stone I lifted is going to hit my foot. "Well... that is to say..."

The landlord smiled, as if trying to ease my embarrassment: "Well, I know."

But you... know what... I pinched my ears and felt that my ears were red.what happened?I am going to be 26 this year, how can I be like a 16-year-old girl, no, stay calm and take a deep breath.

After dinner, I went downstairs for a walk with the landlord.The Spring Festival is approaching, and the smell of rice is everywhere, and the restaurants passing by are full of excitement, pushing cups and changing cups.The landlord walked by my side, and for the first time I didn't feel alone.In this big city, there is always hustle and bustle, and there are always red lights and green drinks. In order to get rid of this lonely mood, I would go to nightclubs with my colleagues. The nightclubs become more and more lonely, and when all the hustle and bustle subsides, I am left alone. Sometimes, I feel like a poor worm with no hair, exposed to negative emotions, unable to extricate myself.

"Is it cold?" The landlord put his arm around my shoulder.

"not cold."

The landlord smiled and put his arms around my shoulders again.

I looked at the profile of the landlord, and for the first time wanted to understand a person's heart.What has happened to the landlord?

When I returned to the apartment, I saw a man standing at the door of the landlord, wearing high-end custom-made clothes, with indescribable elegance in his gestures.Hearing our footsteps, this person turned his head. It was an old lady with delicate makeup.Her back was straight and she was very energetic. If she hadn't turned around, I would have thought she was a woman in her 40s.

"Youqing." The old lady lifted the black lace on the brim of her hat.

"Grandma." The landlord took my hand.

grandmother?grandmother! ?

In the warm yellow living room, the old lady was sitting on the sofa. She took off her black gloves and held a cup of hot tea. "Are you a tenant of Youqing?"

"Yeah." I nodded quickly.

"Sit down, don't hold back." The old lady smiled and patted the seat next to her.

I could feel that the old lady was trying hard to be approachable, but the aura of her coming towards me still gave me two thumps in my heart.I put my feet together and sat upright beside the old lady.

At this time, the landlord also came out, and she was carrying a plate: "Grandma, these snacks are good, you can try them."

"Well, I'll try it." The old lady picked up a piece and slowly took a bite, "It's not bad, Xiao Zhao, can I call you that?"

"of course can!"

"Xiao Zhao, you should try it too."

"Okay." I quickly picked up a snack.

"Xiao Wan, don't be too cautious, my grandma usually..." The landlord walked along the seat next to me, patted my shoulder and said comfortingly.

"Did I ask you to sit here?" The old lady still had a smile on her face, but her tone was indescribably majestic.

The landlord stood up straight.

hiss……

I said that the landlord has a straight back, which turned out to be a family tradition.Looking at the landlord, I couldn't help but straighten my back.

"Youqing didn't cause you any trouble, did you?"

"No, no." My tongue was a little knotted, "How could it be... I am causing trouble for Sister Youqing."

"I just like modest children." The old lady narrowed her eyes and smiled again.

I chatted with the old lady for a while, mainly because the old lady asked me to answer.I haven't felt this way for a long time. I was so suppressed by the other party that I couldn't fight back. In front of the old lady, my legs felt weak and I almost knelt down. "My Lady Queen is right..."

After the old lady went to bed, the landlord pulled me: "Scared?"

I secretly glanced at the room: "It's not..."

"The old man is used to being strong, so he can confiscate it for a while."

"Yeah." I nodded.

"Tomorrow, come to my house for dinner."

"Ah?" No, I'm a little scared.I always feel that the old lady has seen my "careful thinking" about the landlord.

"Tomorrow's New Year's Eve, have a reunion dinner." The landlord said, "I'm home alone, and I can't cook."

"OK……"

"Don't be afraid." The landlord smiled, "I'm here."

"Really?" I pouted.

I feel that the landlord is also very weak in front of grandma.

"Don't be wronged." The landlord pinched my cheek, "Go back and take a hot bath and go to bed early."

"Um……"

When I returned to my rented house, I realized something, did I see my grandma just now, does that count as seeing my parents?Should I do what I like?It's better to say goodbye, in front of big shots, just save your life and don't get a box lunch.I really don't have any heroine halo at all.

In the morning, the landlord accompanied the old lady out to dance the sword, and brought me a breakfast when he came back.

"Sword dance?"

"Yes, the old man has this hobby."

I took a bite of the fritters, it was warm and delicious.

The landlord took a tissue and wiped the corners of my mouth again, "Eat slowly, your mouth is full."

When I arrived at the landlord's house, the old lady was reading a book with glasses and wearing the landlord's home clothes, her whole body softened a lot. "Happy New Year's Eve."

"Happy New Year's Eve." I put my hands together quickly and spoke very piously.
