Reborn next door twins first grow up

Chapter 24 Jia Er's Gypsophila

Receiving a call from Gu Yan again, Gu Jiaer reluctantly got up and went to the corner to answer the call.

A pot of Mao Xue Wang and a pot of fat beef in sour soup had just been brought to the table, and the ingredients were solid. Ni Xiaoyu stretched a spoon into it, but it didn't reach the bottom, and was covered with ham slices and duck blood.

Gu Jiaer was thinking about two big dishes, but she hadn't had time to taste them yet.

After a while.

"Brother, you come too."

"Don't go, don't go."

"My dad went to watch TV." Gu Jiaer smiled and pointed to the phone, "I'm talking on the phone with my mother now."

He got up immediately, and he still had to listen to what his future mother-in-law said.

Lu Man walked to the secluded corner where Jia Er was, the voice on the phone became quiet because of the environment, and Lu Man could hear Wen Yi's earnest confession even when he was standing beside her.

"Jia'er, give him the phone." Wen Yi on the other end of the phone said, "Lu Man, I'm Jia'er's mother."

"Aunt Wen, good evening." Lu Man replied obediently.

"Jia'er is a reckless child. She only made up her mind last night. She went out this morning. I asked her to wait two days before going. She just ignored her and didn't listen, causing trouble for you."

"Aunt Wen, where are you? I'm too happy to have her visit the campus with me during the day."

Gu Jiaer rolled his eyes at him, clearly disliked her all the way, cut, a man's heart is not the same as what he says.

"Lu Man, I have to work hard for you to send her to the family compound of the Normal University. Aunt Feng over there has been waiting for her for a long time."

This is urging Gu Jiaer to hurry up and return the baby swallow to its nest.

"Don't worry, Aunt Wen. We've been wandering around the campus for the past two days. We must ensure Jiaer's safety. I'll also remind her to keep in touch with you."

There was a chirping voice on the other end of the phone, and it turned into a young and gentle voice: "Brother, Jiaer."

"Jia'er, your sister answered the phone instead, let's have a chat with your sister..."

Lu Man looked behind him, and saw that Gu Jia'er had already left him and her cell phone, ran back to the table by herself, and excitedly scooped up a spoonful of sour soup and fat beef and poured it on the rice.

"Jia'er went to cook, I answered the call in a quiet corner of the hotel."

"what?"

Gu Lingyi's voice suddenly became tense, and then said nothing.

The two did not speak, and could hear each other's breathing.

After a long while, Lu Man spoke first: "What about long-distance and roaming, let's just say nothing?"

"Um...that..."

"Why don't you hang up the phone first, and I'll call you back. In case your landline phone bill is cut off, you and I will be miserable."

beep-

"..." Gu Lingyi immediately hung up the phone.

"Uh..." Lu Man regretted so much that he really wanted to slap himself.

"Oh, this girl, you have such a thin skin." Lu Man sighed.

He was quite lost and wanted to say a few words to her.

Jingle Bell--

The phone in his pocket vibrated and rang, Lu Man was taken aback for a moment, then rejoiced, seeing the caller ID, it was Gu Lingyi.

"Hello, Ling Yi?"

"Um…"

The two still had no words.

Lu Man simply leaned against the wall, neither in a hurry nor in a hurry.

The time is not important, at this moment, it makes no difference whether the time has passed by a second or a few minutes.

The space is not important either. The yelling of serving dishes next to him, the loud conversations of the dining customers, and the noisy air supply of the central air conditioner above his head seem to gradually move away from him.But hundreds of kilometers away from her, her breath seems to be close at hand.

It is enough to know that she is on the phone and connected to him.

Gu Lingyi's cat is under the quilt at the moment, and her mobile phone is placed on the pillow.

If she was silent like this with others, Gu Lingyi would definitely feel super awkward and embarrassing.

But my brother is different.

This kind of tacit understanding reminded her of the heartless time when the three of them were together in elementary school.

My younger sister, Jiaer, was full of energy when she was a child, and Sa Yazi ran happily.

Always take Lu Man out to catch dragonflies and grasshoppers.A wind-up frog toy was in hand for 5 minutes, and I took a screwdriver to dismantle it for research.

Sometimes Jiaer wanted to push Lu Man to the little sister's place to dance rubber bands and checkered squares, but Lu Man was not happy, so Gu Jiaer chased him softly and let it go.

Gu Lingyi and him are often at grandma's house together, and Lu Man said I came to see you to play, but when they arrived at grandma's house, the two little guys were greedy for the air conditioner and iced watermelon, and they closed the door and lay on the bed. Back to back on the mat.

Xiao Luman occupied Gu Lingyi's red and white computer and played games, while Xiao Lingyi held a novel and read it quietly.

Which girl would act like a baby and ask her mother to buy a genuine red and white computer that she would never play when she went to Hong Kong?

After Xiaolu was tired and fell asleep, little Gu Lingyi would sneak up. The boy slept badly, with red mat marks all over his face. wake up...

Even if I don't talk all afternoon, I feel that this day is very fulfilling and joyful.

They are more like family members who let each other relax wholeheartedly.

……

"Brother, you can hang up at any time." Seemingly mustering up her courage, Gu Lingyi spoke softly.

Lu Man smiled and said, "I don't want to die. I haven't seen enough of the world. I want to live another seven or eighty years."

"I meant to hang up the phone." Gu Lingyi's tone was tinged with tenderness, "Bah, bah, don't say anything unlucky!"

She paused for two seconds, then asked cautiously, "Will this be boring?"

"Not at all." Lu Man said decisively.

Precious feelings can be tacitly talked about without saying anything, or they can be tacitly kept silent.

Gu Lingyi said in a sticky tone, "Brother, are you...are you still eating dinner?"

"It's not over yet, but I'm full."

"Then go back quickly." Gu Lingyi urged weakly, "Don't make friends wait in a hurry."

"Well, go to bed early, don't read novels too late, it's not good for your eyes."

"Oh..." Gu Lingyi responded with a guilty conscience. She had an MP4 player next to her bed, and she really wanted to stay up all night to finish a novel.

……

Back at the dinner, I saw Gu Jiaer talking to everyone, with a anxious look on her face, as if she was arguing.

Approaching Gu Jiaer, Lu Man heard clearly that what they were arguing about was the two hundred yuan they had borrowed from Zhao Hong.

It turned out that while he was away, Li Zhaohui and the others took advantage of the opportunity to ask about Lu Man and Gu Jiaer's experiences when they came together to warm up the chat.

Gu Jiaer also answered as usual, from taking the train to entering the school to find the team, she thinks it is worth mentioning that Lu Man helped the high school girl Zhao Hong go home.

I met a penniless Yicheng high school girl on the road under the bridge, and kindly took her to eat. She tasted delicious dried noodles without salt, and asked her high school questions to verify her student status, and finally gave her [-] yuan to help her go home.

From Gu Jiaer's perspective, Lu Man did a perfect job, and she was happy about it.

Unexpectedly, a few people in the team chattered about it. Some people said that Lu Man was already very cautious, and Zhao Hong's identity and situation could indeed be confirmed by using high school questions and unsalted noodles.

But others see it differently.

"It is indeed difficult for a person who is not hungry to swallow that kind of watery noodles, but not necessarily for money."

"I think so. Is it possible that she still has some money, and she won't come to Haiqu anyway, so she suddenly wants to make a fortune before leaving?"

"Think about it, even if it is true that she is down and out, but when she returns to Yicheng, whether she pays back the money or not depends entirely on her conscience and self-awareness."

"It's already night now. Haiqu arrives at Yicheng in just over an hour. It stands to reason that Junior Lu should have received the call fee."

Faced with a lot of chatter, Gu Jiaer didn't know which one to refute first, she was depressed in her seat, pouted and didn't speak.

"Lu Man, I'm sorry, these brats don't know how to read people's emotions." Wang Xueai looked at Lu Man and Gu Jiaer apologetically, then turned her head to stop the team members who were still discussing, "Okay, this topic will be briefly discussed." But, stop discussing it!"

Lu Man sat back beside Jiaer, patted the bag on her lap, and said comfortingly: "It's okay, the gains and losses are only two tickets. Didn't you say it before, if you can help someone, you can always help the needy." people."

Gu Jiaer bit her lip, still looking depressed.

"I'll go out for a while." She stood up and said.
