When I got home in the afternoon, one of my mother's colleagues was sitting on the sofa at Liu Yanzhi's house with her husband, giving advice.Liu Yanzhi and Zhao Fangfei just came back from practice, greeted each other sleepily, and then went into the room.Her father stopped her and told her to wash some fruit.

"Ah, I'll go, let her do her homework..." The mother saw her exhaustion and stood up.

"Doing housework is also considered exercise, so how can it affect your studies?" Her father stopped her.

"Then why don't you exercise?" Mother still smiled, but her tone was thorny.

Seeing that the atmosphere became tense again, Liu Yanzhi put on a smile, turned around and went into the kitchen.When they came out with apples, the middle-aged couple was leaning on the sofa and eating melon seeds.Her father asked her to sit aside and said that she would listen to them and learn how to behave.

Liu Yanzhi couldn't figure out what kind of life it was to listen to adults talking useless nonsense.But taking outsiders into consideration, she still sat aside, picked up a copy of "Story Club", and read it boredly.After reading a few pages, the magazine was snatched away by her father. When she looked up, he still had a smile on his face, but his eyes were fierce.

Liu Yanzhi had the urge to retch again.

"That woman, tsk tsk tsk, a little nurse, if she insists on getting involved with a patient, she's going to embarrass her family." The colleague had a smile that seemed regretful but was actually gloating, as if he had glimpsed some secret Excited.

"The new cashier at the gate of our school is also the same. I heard that there is only one daughter in the family, and she has to learn to dance. After learning, she will be a mistress outside, her face will be burnt like that, and she will not be able to dance."

"If I have a daughter, I must teach her not to be a mistress, stay away from married men, and destroy other families. How morally corrupt that is." She said softly.

The colleague's husband repeatedly agreed, and he was glad that he had a son, so he didn't have any worries.

"But I think it's even more embarrassing to have an affair with a man." Liu Yanzhi said coldly, crossing her arms and crossing her legs.

All four looked at her at once.

"Why, am I wrong?" Liu Yanzhi picked up a carton of milk and put the straw into her mouth with an innocent look on her face.

"You're still young, what do you know?" It was the colleague's husband who spoke.

Some people, when faced with the irrationality of the younger generation but unwilling to admit it, often only use this set of words to prevaricate.

"I don't quite understand. Could it be that the husband's cheating caused the family to break up?" Liu Yanzhi seemed puzzled.

"Gao Xia, your child is too young and doesn't have much social experience, alas." The husband, who didn't know whether it was a colleague or a colleague, sighed.

"Swallow, don't talk nonsense." Father said sharply.

Is there something wrong with what she said?Obviously, it is the husband who is restrained by the marriage system, and it is also the husband who does things that damage the family and break the family apart. Why focus on women and make them fight against each other and become hostile to each other, but make the husband invisible?For example, old Liu Mingming never cared about the feelings of his wife and children, and only cared about his own comfort, but others wanted to persuade his mother, "You are too strong, you should show weakness."Isn't her mother showing weakness enough?

"Men, immature, it's normal to make some mistakes, and you have to calm down in the end." The colleague said meaningfully.

She didn't want to stay here for a moment.

The doorbell rang at the right time, and Liu Yanzhi got up to open the door as if she had been pardoned.

There was someone she hadn't expected standing outside the door.

"You, your homework is in the classroom, I'll send it to you." Luo Jiayi lowered his head and muttered.

"You wait for me." Liu Yanzhi took the exercise book, picked up the schoolbag on the sofa, and smiled relaxedly at her parents: "Dad, Mom, I will go to my classmate's home to do my homework." Jiayi grabbed her hand and took her away.

"Adults are really funny and self-righteous." Liu Yanzhi kicked the stones on the road angrily.Before Luo Jiayi came back to his senses, he somehow brought Liu Yanzhi back to his home.

Luo Jiayi's home is a one-story house with a small courtyard, a bit dilapidated.When she entered the door, her mother was cooking in the yard, she saw Liu Yanzhi was stunned for a moment, and then she burst into a smile: "Ah Yi, are you friends?" She spoke softly, even her eyes sparkled with a smile .

Liu Yanzhi rushed to answer: "Yes, we rehearsed the show together, hello, auntie!"

"Then you guys go to do your homework first, and I'll call you for dinner later." She smiled like a certain female star on TV, and even the scars on her face seemed to have disappeared.

Liu Yanzhi followed Luo Jiayi into the house.Luo Jiayi's room is not big, with a small desk and a chess board next to it.Luo Jiayi hung the violin on the wall, and turned around and told her to sit casually.

"What kind of chess is this?" Liu Yanzhi sat down beside her chessboard.

"Go." She also = sitting opposite her.

"I heard that you are very powerful." Liu Yanzhi said with a smile.

She waved her hands quickly: "I'm not great, I'm just average. I'm still working as an amateur, so don't listen to their nonsense."

After she finished speaking, she saw Liu Yanzhi staring at her with focused eyes.

Did she talk too much, which was annoying.

Luo Jia held her breath and became uneasy.

Liu Yanzhi chuckled: "It's the first time you've talked so much."

It turned out that she also said so many words in one breath, which was really novel.

"Why are you still wearing it in the room? It's so boring." Liu Yanzhi frowned and stretched out her hand. Luo Jia didn't have time to react, and she took off the mask.She subconsciously opened her palms and used them to cover her face tightly.

The room was quiet, only Luo Jiayi's rapid breathing could be heard.

"It's okay." Liu Yanzhi thought for a while and said.

"It's too ugly and scary." She returned to the appearance of cherishing words like gold.

"I've seen it before in class." Liu Yanzhi's throat felt dry.

When Luo Jia thought about it, it seemed to be the same, and she didn't know what she was being hypocritical at the moment.She lowered her head, still refusing to move her hand away.

Liu Yanzhi's appearance is not very beautiful, she is above average, but she has never been bothered by her appearance.She knew in her heart that she had no position to persuade her from above, but she still wanted to make her feel better.

Liu Yanzhi reached out to her hesitantly, overlapping her palm.Her hands were dry and cold, like a piece of ice covered with a cloth.

"It's not ugly, really." The other party stiffened obviously, and did not refuse her approach.

She gently moved her palm away, and the other party seemed to have lost his soul, and he was in a daze, neither talking nor looking at her.

She ran her finger over the red birthmark, outlining its shape.

"Don't you think it looks like a butterfly."

She raised her eyes to meet hers.Her eyes are so indifferent, like a quiet lake, just like her habit of hiding herself in a corner and accepting everything.But Liu Yanzhi could clearly see that a raging flame was burning under the calm water surface, as if it wanted to burn everything up.
