Two pots of water

"Just give your mother a name." Jiang Chu smiled, "Go ahead."

Tan Zui didn't seem to want to answer it too much. He held the phone and waited for a while. After making sure that Tan Shuman didn't make a wrong dial, he hung up without two beeps. Then he slid the answer button and put the phone on his ear.

The call was very short, Jiang Chu didn't hear Tan Zui's voice very much, it just felt like "hmm" a few times, and finally said "Let's talk", and hung up the phone.

"What did you say?" He asked Tan Zui again.

Tan Zui's mood was obvious because the phone call was much lower than before. He put away the phone without expression, thought for a while and said: "Ask how my leg is, and let me not trouble you too much."

Jiang Chu suddenly fell into Tan Zui's mood of not knowing what to say.

Nothing to say.

The last time Tan Shuman called was the day when Tan Zui had just had a plaster cast, Jiang Chu asked her to give Tan Zui a cast in person, and now she finally called, and the plaster was removed.

She could even say something that told Qin not to bother him the most.

"You're not troublesome." He could only pull out his hand and pluck Tan Zui's ear.

"Let's drive your car." Tan Zui tugged at the corner of his mouth.

Tan Shuman actually had another question at the end of the phone call, asking Tan Zui if he would go home for a meal.

Let Tan Zui talk about it later, she called Jiang Chu again later.

Jiang Chu was counting the holidays for New Year's Day.

From Christmas Eve to New Year's Day, he didn't want to schedule too much work for the company this week, and he became more playful. After all, small broken companies are young people, and they want to be tired of being with boyfriends and girlfriends on these days.

Those who don't have boyfriends and girlfriends don't want to work.

Fangzi began to tease in the group a few days in advance, and went to Huazi's shop for a meal after the holiday.

Hua Zi was quite willing. The hot spring hotel developed by his big brother in the neighboring city last year was quite decent, and he had been asking him to bring friends to join him. It happened that a few people were looking for a hot spring bubble, and he learned from it by the way.

Jiang Chu thought it was feasible. He came back from eating hot pot that day and came back with a bit of a cold. It wasn't so serious that he needed to take medicine, so he sneezed one after another.

The key is to take Qin Zui out for fun.

From summer to winter, he was allergic for a while and got a plaster cast. He didn't take him to have a good time, so he went to the farmhouse, slept in nothing, and came back.

"What do you think, do you have any ideas?" After answering Tan Shuman's call, Jiang Chu leaned against the door of Tan Zui's room with his mobile phone and asked him, "Go to my parents' house for dinner on weekends, and wait for the New Year's Day holiday later." Now, I'll go to my mother's place again, and then we'll go to the hot spring with Huazi and the others?"

"Do you want to go have dinner with her?" Qin Zui leaned back in the chair and turned his head. He was doing a problem, with his legs resting on his ankles on the table, with an exercise book spread out on his legs, and his right hand was spinning the pen.

"It's not a matter of whether you want to or not. You should go or you have to go, after all, it's your mother." Jiang Chu sat down beside his bed, "Besides, I still take [-] from them a month. She wants to see her son." What else can I hold back and not let go?"

Qin Zui laughed when he heard this.

"What did you think at the time?" He asked Jiang Chu.

"When?" Jiang Chu didn't react.

"When they asked me to come to you," Tan Zui said, "Why did you agree?"

"Stop talking, it's [-] a month." Jiang Chu rolled his eyes, "If you don't want to, you have to think of tricking me, why don't you just agree, and you'll be happy with the money."

Tan Zui looked at him and twirled the pen twice.

"And you were already sticking to me at that time." Jiang Chu said, "If you don't want it, you are not suitable."

"I'm clinging to you?" Qin didn't have the impression at all.

"Yeah, when we entered the private room." Jiang Chu thought back to the most cautious appearance of Tan that day, and then looked at Tan Zui who could talk and laugh with him in front of him, feeling a little bit emotional, "My dad wants to drag you to you Sit next to Mom, and you sat down next to me."

Qin thought for a while: "I forgot."

"It's a conditioned reflex." Jiang Chu said, "I don't want to sit with them. I'm the one to pick you up, so I subconsciously pulled myself to my side."

Qin Zui turned his pen a couple more times.

"Actually, it's because of your swipe." Jiang Chu saw that he was spinning pretty well, and grabbed his pen with a little itchiness, and spun it twice, "You sat down next to me when you were most confused, It would be really pitiful if I didn't want you anymore."

"You are soft-hearted, don't push me." Tan Zui looked at his hand and whispered.

Jiang Chu smiled.

"If it wasn't for me, would you be willing to change someone?" Tan Zui looked up at him again.

"Who should I change?" Liang Xiaojia wearing a travel agency hat popped into Jiang Chu's mind, "Liang Xiaojia?"

"Will it?" Qin Zui didn't care who to change, he just wanted to ask.

"No." Jiang Chu didn't hesitate at the moment, "It's true that he won't."

"Why?" Tan asked with the most interest.

why?

Jiang Chu couldn't tell why at first glance.

His first reaction was that Liang Xiaojia, a child who was too thoughtful, didn't agree with his temper.

But considering that Tan's most sensitive level is already in the category of surpassing ordinary people, this reason is a bit untenable.

It's impossible to say that it's established, after all, it's Tan's best friend who grew up with him since he was a child, and he described it like a bully.

"What kind of good thing is it that you are addicted to picking people up?" Jiang Chu could only turn the pen and tap on the back of Tan Zui's hand, "It's not like picking up a cat or a dog, you have to see if it fits Close your eyes."

"That's why I'm right in your eye." Tan Zui said.

"Why do you always look for a sense of approval recently?" Jiang Chu gave him a funny look.

"Do you agree?" Tan Zui stared at him.

"Ah, yes, you are the best match." Jiang Chu said "tsk", stood up and threw the pen back into Tan Zui's arms, "It's not over. Then it's settled, and I will go to your mother's for dinner the day after tomorrow."

After picking up the phone and walking to the door of the room, Tan Zui suddenly called him from behind: "Brother."

"Ah?" Jiang Chu turned his head, this was the first time Tan called his brother on his own initiative in a non-threatening situation.

"It's okay, I just want to shout." Tan Zui didn't look back, and continued to answer his questions.

"Two more," Jiang Chu immediately teased him, "I love to hear this."

"Go out." Tan said ruthlessly.

It happened to be Christmas on the weekend, so I had to go to school and work on weekends to save time off for New Year's Day.

Jiang Chu saw that each of them couldn't sit still, so they gave them half a day off in the afternoon.

"Do you have plans for the afternoon?" Da Ben sat on the swivel chair without moving.

"No, take Tan Zui home for dinner tonight." Jiang Chu looked at the time, "Do you have something to do?"

"I'm fine, and Baoli's unit is free today." Da Ben stretched his waist, hummed, revealing a section of long johns on his belly, "We're in a world together, what should we do?" Woolen cloth."

"Do it yourself." Jiang Chu smiled, tilted his head and sneezed.

"Let's go shopping for clothes." Da Ben sat up with a "hey" sound, "I have all the equipment from the year before last, so I should get new ones this year."

"Alright." Jiang Chu nodded, "Buy Tan Zui a down jacket."

"You," Da Ben nodded at him. After a long time, he finally said nothing, shook his head exaggeratedly and sighed, "I'm convinced."

Buying clothes for Tan Zui was very easy, Jiang Chu chose for him according to his own frame, anyway, Tan Zui didn't pick styles for his image, any kind of upper body looked good.

He grabbed a few suits and tried them on. He compared a short camouflage color with a long black one, and felt that the camouflage color was more energetic.

Da Ben glanced at it, telling him to take the long one.

"The down jacket doesn't look too good-looking, it's warm, and it can protect your brother's legs." Da Ben said, pulling the camouflage one over, "I'll try this one... how big is this one? A fork, sister?"

"You're a piece of trash." Jiang Chu scolded him with a smile, and put on the long clothes again to reflect the glasses.

He took the down jacket to the shopping guide to wrap it up, and asked someone to get another one of the same style, and kept it for himself to wear.

Qin Zui happened to have no evening self-study tonight, so Jiang Chu sent Da Ben home and went to No. 27 Middle School to pick him up.

Sure enough, Gao Xia and Lu Yao came out with Qin Zui, Lu Yao jumped up ten meters away from the car, waved at Jiang Chu, dragged her schoolbag to the front of the car.

"Merry Christmas, brother!" She smiled and pulled a pretty delicate paper bag from her bag. She didn't know who gave it to her, and there was a greeting card in it. She took the card away and put it away, and stuffed the paper bag directly to Jiang Chu. , "Christmas present for you!"

"What?" Jiang Chu looked at it with a smile. The candies in a paper bag were filled with foreign characters, which seemed quite high-end.

"I don't know who gave it to me, I just took out a bag and borrowed flowers to offer Buddha here." Gao Xia pouted disdainfully, found an apple from somewhere and threw it to Jiang Chu, "I bought this with my own hands, bro, of practical significance."

"Crazy, you don't all eat the same." Lu Yao raised her leg and kicked Gao Xia's snow.

Jiang Chu was not polite, he took both of their candies and apples, and then took out a paper bag from the passenger seat.

"I just passed by the mall, and I thought I'd see you two, so I bought it." Jiang Chu opened the bag, and distributed a cup to each of them, "Christmas milk tea, drink it."

"Wow, I'm really going to buy it," Lu Yao took a paper cup printed with elk patterns, took out her phone and prepared to take a selfie, "I've been checking in on Moments for a day."

"I'm so envious of Tan Zui." Gao Xia bumped Tan Zui's shoulder, "The country owes me a brother series."

"Where's mine." Tan Zui waited beside him for a long time, looking at Jiang Chu inexplicably.

"I drank it." Jiang Chu couldn't help laughing, and took out a half-drunk cup of milk tea from the car window, shaking it to Tan Zui, "Mine was snatched by Da Ben."

Tan Zui looked at him for two seconds, Jiang Chu shook the milk tea cup again: "It's really half done, listen."

"... I'm sick." Tan Zui smiled lightly, took half a cup of milk tea, and took a sip directly into the straight drink cap.
