After the divorce, the ex-husband traveled six years ago to learn male virtue

Chapter 64 Not the Kind of Relationship You Think

Tang Jialin touched her face. It was really hot. She leaned closer to her mother and explained in a low voice: "I just wanted to wash my hands, so I stood at the door, but he said he needed to go to the toilet..." It was so embarrassing.

Sun Yueqin squinted at her daughter: "How long have you known each other?"

"Not long, a week."

"One week?" Sun Yueqin's voice was a little high, "You just brought him home?"

"...Mom, we need work..."

"Don't fool me there, the way you two were talking and laughing just now, doesn't it look like the working relationship you just met for a week?"

Tang Jialin patted her mother: "That's not the kind of relationship you think."

"What kind of relationship do I think?"

The sound of flushing water came from the bathroom, Tang Jialin turned around to wash her hands at the vegetable sink, and said at the same time, "No matter what, don't talk nonsense in front of others for a while."

Sun Yueqin ignored her daughter's words, and asked her to take out the noodles that had been soaked in water, and put meat sauce, shredded cucumber and other pieces on the dining table by herself.

"I'm afraid you're going to be hungry, so I'll just make some home-cooked meals. Don't be disgusted with Longlong."

Xu Long took a deep breath of the aroma of the meat sauce, and sincerely praised: "It looks delicious, thank you for your hard work."

Tang Jialin asked him to sit, and said to herself: "Mom, you've worked hard, take a break, what time do you go to work in the afternoon?"

Sun Yueqin glanced at the wall clock in the living room, "I have to leave at one o'clock in a while, you guys eat quickly."

She sat down on the sofa, looking for a chance to chat with Xu Long, but this young man with yellow hair was probably really hungry, and he sat down and ate deliciously. She only asked which country he was from and which school he studied in. With these two questions, Xu Long ate a big bowl of noodles with Xilihulu.

Tang Jialin helped him pick another bowl of noodles, and Sun Yueqin couldn't help laughing: "This kid is hungry, eat slowly, eat too fast, it's not good for the stomach."

"Yeah." Xu Long poured a big spoonful of meat sauce on the noodles, and agreed while stirring.

Sun Yueqin took the opportunity to ask him what his parents did and how many brothers and sisters he had. The more Tang Jialin heard it, the more he felt something was wrong. She winked at her mother, but she pretended not to see it.

After Xu Long answered that he has an older sister and a younger brother, when his mother actually asked, "Is my sister married?" Tang Jialin finally couldn't help it: "Mom, this is someone's privacy, so it's impolite to ask like this."

Sun Yueqin saw that Xu Long's face was indeed a little embarrassed, so she smiled and said, "Oh, Auntie forgot that you foreigners don't like to talk about this. You eat, I wash my hands, and I should go to work."

Seeing her mother enter the bathroom and close the door, Tang Jialin apologized in a low voice: "I'm sorry, my mother didn't mean anything, she just wanted to inquire about other people's family affairs."

"It's OK. I heard from my grandma that some elders like to talk about it." Xu Long stirred the noodles with chopsticks, "But I still don't understand why you ask my sister whether she is married or not."

Tang Jialin really felt very sorry, "I'm sorry."

"You don't need to apologize, and you didn't ask." Xu Long said seriously, "You didn't do anything wrong, so you don't need to apologize for your mother."

Tang Jialin didn't know what else to say, she lowered her head and ate noodles in silence until her mother came out of the bathroom.

"After you've finished eating, just put the bowls and chopsticks in the kitchen. Go get busy when you're busy." Sun Yueqin finished explaining, and then asked, "Are you coming back for dinner tonight?"

"I won't come back." Now the conversation has become like this, and her father is also there at night. Tang Jialin really can't imagine the scene, "We will go to grandma's house after shooting the photo album in a while, what do you want to bring?" ?"

"I don't have anything, I asked you to take it last time." Sun Yueqin put on her coat, "I'll call your grandma first and tell you that you are going to go later?"

Tang Jialin guessed that her mother wanted to tell her grandma in advance that her companion was a foreigner, so she nodded, "Okay."

"Then I'll go first."

Xu Long stood up: "Thank you for your hospitality, the noodles with fried sauce are delicious."

Sun Yueqin couldn't help laughing: "This kid is really good at talking, come back next time, tell auntie in advance, auntie will prepare delicious food for you."

"Okay, goodbye, auntie."

"Goodbye Longlong." Sun Yueqin opened the door satisfied and left.

Tang Jialin stared at Xu Long: "Didn't you say that you foreigners don't call people like that?"

Xu Long sat down and picked up his chopsticks: "Do as the Romans do, don't let my aunt think I'm rude."

"..."

The two quickly finished their meal. Tang Jialin brought the dishes and leftovers back to the kitchen and washed the dishes.

Xu Long still wanted to come to help, but she said, "Farewell, my hanging cabinet, you stand here washing the dishes and kowtow." She successfully persuaded him to leave.

After washing the dishes and taking pictures of elementary school, they went downstairs to the car and drove to grandma's house.

"Every summer vacation in elementary school, I would go to my grandma's house to live for a while. It can be as long as a month or as short as at least half a month. Do you know that the countryside in summer is very fun, the fields are full of wild flowers, and you can also spend time with a group of friends. Go dig wild vegetables and come back to feed the chickens and ducks."

Tang Jialin was driving the car, recalling the idyllic life she experienced in her childhood, "At night, the sky is full of stars, and you can see the Milky Way when you stand in the yard, and the Cowherd and Weaver Girl. Have you heard the story of Cowherd and Weaver Girl?"

"I've heard of it, and I've seen TV shows."

"You've actually seen this kind of thing?" Tang Jialin was surprised.

"Well, when I was learning Chinese, I watched a lot of TV dramas, and I was very interested in the ones related to fairy tales."

"No wonder you speak Chinese well."

Xu Long was very happy: "Thank you."

Tang Jialin continued to talk about her childhood: "When I was a child, I heard adults say that on Qixi Festival, which is the seventh day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar, children can hear the Cowherd and Weaver Girl talking when they hide under the melon stand."

"how romantic."

"Romantic?" Tang Jialin laughed, "Think about it, in the countryside in summer, under the melon stand, you don't mention cucumber leaves pricking people, but mosquito bites, isn't it scary?"

"So you haven't heard it?"

Tang Jialin shook her head: "But I really want to listen to it, but it seems that it rains every year on Qixi Festival, and I often feel sleepy as soon as it gets dark, and I always fall asleep without knowing it."

"Does it rain every year?"

"Well, China's solar terms are really amazing. For example, on days like rain, Qingming Festival, and Qixi Festival, it really basically rains."

"Wow, maybe I can make a video about solar terms in China, can you help me?"

"sure."

Xu Long became serious: "To be honest, my classmates and I want to set up a company to make some humanistic videos, but what we lack the most is creativity. Although it is good to shoot ordinary people's daily life, it is difficult for me to find subject."

Tang Jialin nodded. His video was actually very interesting, but indeed, the subjects that have been filmed now, besides Grandma Pang and his wife, are Xu Long's classmates and the owner of the steamed stuffed bun shop opposite the school. It's over.

"So I would like to invite you to join us, and we will form a company together, would you like to?"
