red dust under the lamp

Walking slowly from the porch to the living room, Xie Yichen walked on crutches, turned around to guide the workers: "The kitchen is here..."

Ning Jue was carrying the tool bag, showing her face unexpectedly.

Rubbing the collar, the sea-blue overalls have eight pockets all over the body, each containing some odds and ends, and the words Nancheng Housekeeping are printed on the back.

She looked into the kitchen and nodded.

Xie Yichen remained silent, and Ning Jue also remained silent.

The moment their eyes collided, it was obvious that they had recognized each other long ago, but they kept a decent pretend, as if no one knew each other, as if they were ordinary employees and employers, Ning Jue walked into the kitchen neither humble nor humble, leaving Give Xie Yichen a back view.

The past is like an old stain, turned up at this time, and will flow down the sewer in turbid foam.

Mr. Jiang.God, Mr. Jiang.

Xie Yichen and Jiang Wang married?marry?It's only been two and a half years!

Looking at that appearance, standing up, with crutches, the level of medical care in the United States is good, can clones be created before the millennium... Ning Jue thought wildly, and the work at hand did not stop at all.

He didn't look back, for fear of bumping into Xie Yichen looking at her.

Why is the world so big, they are like magnets traveling thousands of miles to meet each other.We met at this time, and the drama is not counted, just inexplicably, I didn't save myself dignity... Last time it was a nanny, okay, this time it's a housekeeper... Couldn't she be bright once?Make a good show?

Even got married!Ning Jue almost passed out... Get married!Is it true that one glance misses life?How many flowers and poems of Jiang Wang are so good?She hummed and finished, then lowered her head and took out the form from her bag.

Xie Yichen was sitting on the sofa, "Family Fighting" was broadcast on TV, and the little boy played by Xu Liwen was holding a loudspeaker and selling pornographic books downstairs to earn the first pot of gold in the United States, but was caught by his mother. Canned laughter was louder than usual.

Xie Yichen had a serious face, as if he was not acting in a sitcom, but a historical drama.

The cane was standing beside the green velvet sofa, Xie Yichen was dressed loosely at home, a velvet yellow cardigan was draped over a suspender skirt, and the ends of his hair were permed—the person has become mature, not the innocent look of a girl.

The boss of Nancheng Housekeeping came back from abroad and learned advanced housekeeping management techniques. Every time he came to the house, the forms were charged one by one, and they were clearly listed. They also had to conduct spot checks and call customers for return visits... This set of training took three days. It took Ning Jue half a day to become proficient, so he became a team leader and managed five people.

So she shouldn't get stuck when confirming the charge with the customer.

But the words were on her lips, and she didn't know how to ask them.

Not even a name.

How to shout?Mrs. Jiang?Heh, what if it's Xiaosan?

Ning Jue made Xie Yichen dirty, and then became sad, how could she be so jealous?What is jealousy?Why can't she find the source of her jealousy, so she can't say three good words?

You can't call your name loudly.

She left without saying goodbye, leaving a perfunctory note, if she thanked Yichen, she would be angry.Just be a stranger!But Mrs. Jiang couldn't say the three words no matter what.

How did you become Mrs. Jiang?Xie Yichen is Xie Yichen, why did he suddenly change his name to Mrs. Jiang Ming, and it belongs to Jiang Wang's household registration book?

Ning Jue was dumbfounded, and after a while she still calmed down.

She didn't know what expression she should show to Xie Yichen, so she simply pretended that she didn't know him, that she had no way not to know Xie Yichen.

The work is done, and the next appointment is not urgent, Ning Jue has enough time to think.

Holding the pen, he slightly raised his hand, knowing that Xie Yichen couldn't see it.

"Excuse me, can I use the bathroom?"

"Please."

Ning Jue dodged and hid in the bathroom, leaning against the sink in a daze.Calm down, she said to herself, set aside a few parts in her mind to deal with the current affairs, what is the most important thing?Fill out the form and call it a day?Tell Xie Yichen why he left in the first place?

The latter seemed more important, but Ning Jue called it nonsense and swallowed it back.

She is always doing this kind of thing that she doesn't know the reason clearly, and she always has to clean up the mess she left behind. The first time she escapes, and the second time she escapes, it's all because of the Xie family!In her previous life, she must have been a hunter who set fire to the mountain and burned a nest of foxes in the Xie family, so that in this life, she always ran away when she saw the Xie family. It was fate.

After sorting out her mood, Ning Jue opened the door and flattened the form: "Mrs. Jiang, let me explain today's fee to you, replace..."

The ballpoint pen ticked two lines on the paper to confirm the price.

She handed the form over, Xie Yichen took it, glanced at it casually, and then looked at her along the arm she hadn't retracted.

Ning Jue lowered her eyebrows, her eyes were peaceful.

"The wallet is in the bedroom. My legs and feet are not very convenient. You can help me get it." Xie Yichen pointed her to the location of the master bedroom, and Ning Jue nodded.

In the bedroom, Ning Jue began to imagine, what did Xie Yichen and Jiang Wang do on this bed?Looking in the closet, she opened it, and saw the man's clothes, and socks thrown on the ground... There was a wedding photo hanging in the corner of the room, a golden boy and a jade girl.It's so cruel, Xie Yichen's cruelty is like cutting flesh with a blunt knife, and he will take his life slowly.

As soon as Ning Jue came in, it was like stepping into Abi Hell. It was time for retribution for all the evil deeds in the past!Seeing all this, she felt tightness in her chest, as if she had suffered a sudden heat stroke, just before she died... The purse was left on the bedside table, it was a lady's wallet... This was the only consolation.

If Jiang Wang's wallet was placed here, and when he opened it, there was a photo with his wife like an American hero, Ning Jue might faint on the spot, even if the cause is unknown.She was secretly glad she wasn't.

Xie Yichen rested the toll schedule on his knees. It’s been two years since she saw her. She is no longer lonely and thin. At least she is in good health. Her waist and back are strong. She is closer to the state before the car accident. ... I don't know what to think about if the two charges total 42 yuan, Ning Jue didn't say anything, and put the wallet on the coffee table.

"I've been married for more than half a year, and I don't do much housework because of my health. I don't know what's going on with you. Can you introduce your company?" Xie Yichen started to ask questions in a calm tone, neither looking for faults nor reminiscing about the past.

"Our Nancheng Housekeeping Service Company was founded in 1992." Ning Jue was able to memorize the history of the company. She flipped through the brochures and remembered them after a long time, but at this time, she didn't want to memorize them.

Xie Yichen hummed, indicating that he was listening.

"Mainly doing housekeeping." Ning Jue said nonsense.

Then she stopped talking, took the form from Xie Yichen's lap, filled in her employee number and date, filled in the time and place, and finally left the customer to sign, and she handed the form back.

"And then?" Xie Yichen didn't answer, put his hands in front of his abdomen, bent over as if his stomach hurt, but his expression was always calm, neither sad nor happy.

"I'm done introducing, Mrs. Jiang, please confirm your signature and pay."

After being silent for a moment, no one moved, Xie Yichen looked directly at Ning Jue, as if he wanted to see some guilt or something else from Ning Jue's emotionless eyes... But how can you see this kind of thing? Come out, sigh, swipe, sign, pay.

"Thank you for choosing Nancheng Housekeeping Service." Ning Jue packed up his things and took away the oily Nancheng Daily in a ball.

Going out, she took off her shoe covers, and threw the dirty newspaper into the trash can. Ning Jue walked quickly. In front of Xie Yichen, the air pressure was very low. She couldn't breathe. Wanting to escape, that's good, Xie Yichen didn't make it difficult for her, yes, adult friendship is like this, everyone understands, it's not from the same world...

While still thinking wildly, she keenly felt that someone was watching her.

He obviously didn't look back, but at that moment, the eyes behind him were as real... and even malicious or not.

The gaze behind her was not malicious, but it was disturbing. Ning Jue turned around, but there was no one there.

She suddenly raised her head and looked at the window on the fourth floor where the light-yellow screen was floating. A bright and clear face loomed. Xie Yichen looked at her from the glass and seemed to call her name. Ning Jue didn't know if it was a hallucination. Some called her Ning Jue, others called Wang Yu, and her voice seemed to come from afar.

Many voices merged into Xie Yichen's voice, which became louder and louder, like a flood.

Ning Jue suddenly panicked, and didn't dare to look up again. In a panic, she walked through a shortcut full of roses, and was cut on the back of her hand by a thorn.

She sucked the wound on the back of her hand, tightened her satchel strap and jumped onto the bus. When passing by the South River, the rolling river was silent, and the voice in her head became more and more violent. Intertwined, the punctured flesh was burning hot, she bit the wound and frowned, damn it, she met Xie Yichen again, ran away twice and met twice.

The fortune teller said, this is a debt from the previous life, either you owe her or she owes you.Ning Jue threw down five yuan, walked in a daze, and returned to the company. Customer service sister Lu told her that the customer just called to praise the company for its good service...

Is it Xie Yichen?Ning Jue frowned and folded her arms subconsciously.

"Wang Yu will come back with a pennant for the company, and I think he will be the team leader soon!" Sister Lu smiled and imagined her future promotion. In her opinion, Ning Jue is obedient and smart, and clients often call him. Call back to praise... Maybe because she is beautiful, she will be more popular.

"Is it a female client?" Ning Jue said.

"All the female clients praise you, which means that your business is good!" Sister Lu didn't catch the implication.

Within a week, the only female client I saw was Xie Yichen... Ning Jue didn't feel safe holding her, and felt weird when she let go.

Come to praise her for what?

After punching and returning the receipt, Ning Jue signed the form.

The tip of the pen trembles, but the characters are square.

Her mind was full of thoughts, she thought, since she couldn't guess, she should ask.

For some reason, she really wanted to see Xie Yichen.

Does Xie Yichen also want to see her?Did Xie Yichen not mind watching her go by the window?Past friendship still there?

Why was her heart beating like thunder when she was stared at, and why did she still have three points of painful joy when she dodged?Why are you so jealous but don't know the source?Ever since she met Xie Yichen, she has become more and more uncertain, why can't she just grab something clear as usual?what does she wantWhy is it itchy?

A row of forms was filled with the signatures of the previous people... On the same page, above her name was Sister Ma from the third group. Sister Ma went to clean up in the morning... The client's name was Cheng Jiaxi.

With a glance, she returned the form, chatted for a while, and waited until the customer service went to the toilet.

"I'll watch for you for a while," Ning Jue said.

She opened the phone book, followed the initials to find Cheng Jiaxi's address and phone number, and copied them in the palm of her hand.

Back then, the woman in Fengshou Building said that if Cheng Jiaxi was found...

As for Xie Yichen... After scanning the phone number with her eyes, Sister Lu has already returned, so she stood up and retreated.

I recited the phone number silently in my mind, and dialed it at the public phone booth when I got off work.

A beep sounded through... Xie Yichen seemed to have nothing to do at home, so he answered the phone quickly.

Ning Jue suddenly got stuck. She held the phone and was silent for a while, before she let out a puzzled "Huh?"

"Don't hang up now..." Ning Jue said anxiously, but she didn't know what to say next, how to speak, how to confess, she was speechless.

After another long silence, the number on the phone card jumped, and Ning Jue let out an ah, and hurriedly said, "I want to see you!"

But why should she see Xie Yichen?Because I can do housework better than Aunt Shu now?Because she used to be Xie Yichen's friend?

But why, and why are these produced!

She, Ning Jue, is a gangster as always, and now she still has a serious job and does a good job. She never felt inferior because of it when she was jobless before, why is her inferiority sprouting like buds now, ready to move?

Is it because Xie Yichen is more beautiful now than when he was a girl?fart!Xie Yichen is now a housewife who does not do housework!Not even the crippled white snake, let alone the glory of the dancer!Why did he suddenly think that he was not worthy to even meet her?

"Then you come." Xie Yichen put away the line.

The phone card balance jumped to zero and was spit out.

The author has something to say: what knife?Why... defile people innocently out of thin air!We... can we call a knife when we are serious and entangled!
