bucket list

"Go home! Go home with you!?" Jian Changche was about to pick up the book that was put back on the dining table and flip through it, but when he heard this, he pushed it forward and shook his head frequently: "No no no no no... ..."

He said "no" five times in a row, and Zong Chi's face immediately collapsed, with his arms folded in front of his chest, with the look of "I'll listen to your explanation".

Jian Changche thought for a long time with his mouth half open, and finally popped out three dry words: "I won't go."

"Why!" Zong Chi yelled angrily.

"..."

Fortunately, the house was very quiet, so even though Jian Chang's voice was very small, he could still hear clearly: "Your family gathering, I will follow to figure out what's going on."

"Hehehe, you can bring your family." Zong Chi showed a sly smile, "Because I bring the little nurse with me, I won't be fucked by others."

When Jian Changche heard the first half of the sentence, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. As soon as the second half of the sentence came out, he immediately returned to the number 1 expression, took the book back and prepared to continue reading, it was too late to ignore Zong.But Zong Chi slapped the book: "Actually, the scenery in my hometown is pretty good. Don't you like fishing? We can go fishing on the lake by boat."

"I don't like fishing..."

"You like watching fishing videos."

"That's a catch-the-sea video!"

"We can catch up too."

"I haven't touched a fishing rod all day."

"I buy for you."

"I don't want you to buy it!"

Seeing that the conversation between the two was about to head towards the "Newbie Fishing Guide", Zong Chi said hurriedly: "Oh, that kind of family gathering is not important at all, just think of it as going out of town, but I need to have a meeting in the middle of it." meeting."

"It's not important, you made a special trip back!" Jian Changche ruthlessly exposed him, "Your mother calls you and you always answer one and hang up three. If this party is not too important, you can't escape or avoid it. will not go."

Zong Chi didn't know whether to be happy or depressed because Jian Changche knew him so well.

Seeing that it was useless to make jokes or coerce and lure, Zong Chi decided to use a killer move - and it was also one of Jian Changche's most unbearable routines, which was to pretend to be pitiful.

"You also know that I don't like my relatives. When I went back, I could at least chat with grandma. Now, my father is gone, and my grandparents are gone. I don't want to see other people at all. I don't want to stay for a second. It's torture." The timing of these words was cunning, but the content was true, and Zong Chi was really wronged as he said it.His brows and eyes were already dark, and he looked particularly pitiful when drooping: "You don't want to accompany me, okay, I'm alone again anyway."

Knowing that he was acting, Jian Changche still sighed and closed the book.

"Even if someone else brings...the family members home, how can you explain to them when you drag me along?"

"Explain what, just say you are my boyfriend."

Jian Changche: "!!!"

Zong Chi raised his eyebrows: "What's the matter, let me see who dares to control me."

"You should say goodbye first." Jian Chang said with a headache, "Where will you live when you go back?"

"Home."

Jian Changche: "No."

"Book a hotel next door." Zong Chi immediately changed his words.

"Hotels under 300 yuan a night."

"Ah?" Zong Chi subconsciously said, counter-offering: "1000 yuan."

"impossible!"

"900."

Jian Changche: "300!"

Zong Chi: "800 yuan, it can't be lower."

Jian Changche frantically said: "Are you the front desk of the hotel! Are you a shareholder of the hotel! Does the hotel give you a commission!"

"How many days?" he asked again.

"I'll go tomorrow, and I'll be back on the 8th." Zong Chi wagged his big tail excitedly: "We won't be in a hurry to go home when we arrive, I'll show you around, have dinner at home, and then come out to stay at night."

In fact, Jian Changche was a little annoyed when he agreed, but seeing how hard he planned, he really couldn't say anything about regretting it.He pondered for a long time, during which Zong Chi enthusiastically shared his travel plans—after all, the two of them realized that since both of them are busy with work, they have never left the city. good.

"Actually..." Jian Changche finally said, "I hesitate mainly because I think..."

As soon as he opened his mouth, Zong Chi immediately shut his mouth and looked at him quietly.

"Ahem," Jane Chang cleared her throat, "Because you see, your family's...conditions and economic foundation, everyone must want to give you the kind...that is the girl who borrowed the dog last time. background."

Zong Chi was very puzzled: "What does it have to do with her?"

"I mean, if it were me, they would definitely not be satisfied, and they might say bad things to make things difficult for you."

"Damn! Who dares to say anything!" Zong Chi stared: "You are ten thousand times better than them! Let me tell you, if you were my cousin, my aunt wouldn't have such a headache every day. You have always They earn their own money to support themselves and support their family’s cemetery, they are scumbags, and we are all scumbags!”

The more Zong Chi spoke, the more excited he became, the ferocious tone and content did not match at all, but Jian Changche still blushed.He never thought that Zong Chi would see himself in this way. He has always fed the whole family by himself, lived without too ambitious goals, and without too lofty aspirations.But recently he felt a little anxious for some reason. He suddenly found that his daily working hours were so long and his salary was so limited. consumption concept.It made him regret not taking longer to go to a better school earlier, or why he didn't stick with medicine and chose nursing instead of a quick job.

People are sometimes forced to choose because of pressure, and feel pressured because of the choice.

Zong Chi dragged the stool under his buttocks and rubbed forward two steps, and leaned against Jian Changche, with his long legs pinched outside his knees: "Cheche~"

Although there are many people who call it that, Zong Chi almost never uses this title, and the two have always known each other.As soon as Jian Changche heard it, she knew that she couldn't beat him again today - fighting was fine, but in terms of acting like a baby, the eldest lady was the king.

Especially because once he steps out of this door, he will turn into a fire-breathing Tyrannosaurus rex, and he will be cold to everyone, which makes it especially difficult to deal with the situation at this moment.

"I'm convinced." Jian Changche gave up resisting, "Just treat it as going out for a walk, tool dog."

"Wang Wang Wang!"

Early the next morning, Jian Changche was woken up by Zong Chi. He yawned and went to the bathroom to wash up. Zong Chi took their luggage into the trunk of the car.When he came back, Zong Chi opened the door again, he in casual clothes and Jian Changche in suits looked at each other.After a while, he couldn't help asking, "Are you going to an interview?"

Jian Changche went back to the room cursing, changed her clothes, wore the same gray scarf, had breakfast at the food stall downstairs, and finally set off aggressively.The city is huge, and after an hour, the car finally drove out of the noise barrier of tall buildings.Zong Chi was in charge of driving, Jian Changche was in charge of singing, and occasionally sang along, which showed that he was in a good mood.The two of them chatted casually, and there were several phone calls in the middle, all of which were answered by Jian Changche, with only one sentence in content: "He is driving."

Around eleven o'clock, Zong Chi stopped at the rest stop to refuel and buy coffee.Holding a poor-quality coffee in one hand and slowly sipping, he passed the line in front of the women's toilet, the crowd by the water outlet, the old people stretching their arms and legs, and the resting truck drivers. Such a scene.

Under the bright and warm sun on a cold winter day, Jian Changche leaned against the car, the smoke of cigarettes rising slowly, and he looked relaxed and comfortable.His eyes were slightly squinted because of the sunshine, he looked like he was smiling, and he looked like a little tiger basking in the sun, with the beard stretched out on his cheeks, and the hair all over his body was fluffy and shiny.Zong Chi tiptoed up from behind, and gave him a resounding "baji" kiss on the side of his face.Jian Changche turned around in shock, glanced left and right in a panic, and punched him firmly in the abdomen with an uppercut.Zong Chi couldn't make a sound because of his crimes, he covered his stomach and slowly bent down, Jian Changche viciously extinguished the cigarette butt on the trash can, pulled the passenger seat away and sat in.

Two hours later, the destination on the map gradually approached, and Jian Changche began to fall silent visibly with the naked eye, with a very serious expression on his face, staring at every road sign and advertising board speeding past, Zongchi thought with his ears. Know he is nervous.

But it was so cute that Zongchi decided not to help him.

As the vehicle drove down the highway, dense needles and bare branches interspersed alternately, the road gradually narrowed, and some beautiful houses with courtyards began to appear on both sides.Soon, at the end of the road came a four-storey villa with brick and wooden beams. The outer walls were covered with vines, and there were rose bushes beside the iron railings.Zong Chi said, "This is it."

As soon as the license plate number is shown, the iron gate will automatically and slowly open. The light green walls are matched with large arched French windows, and a beautiful arc-shaped balcony stretches outside the third floor. The whole building looks elegant and grand.There was a large open space in the courtyard, and two cars were already parked. Zong Chi casually threw the car into a parking space, turned off the engine and applied the handbrake.

"Arrived."

Jian Changche's Adam's apple twitched: "Yes."

"It's time to get out of the car."

"Hmm." Jian Changche replied, but he didn't move.

"Why are you nervous? The male daughter-in-law also wants to see her parents-in-law."

Jian Changche didn't even get distracted to retort.

Zong Chi had an idea: "I want to kiss you."

"How dare you!" Jian Changche immediately jumped out of the car upon hearing this.

"Looks like it's still early." Zong Chi put the keys in his pocket casually, told the security guard not to move his luggage, then looked around at the parked cars, and said, "It seems that most of the annoying ghosts haven't arrived yet. But My mom arrived yesterday and I have to go say hello."

Hearing this arrangement, Jian Changche's neck stiffened.He saw the "Excellent Historic Building" sign outside the house and pretended to be interested in the house's history.

Zong Chi finally said, "But you can go to the kitchen and restaurant and wait for me first, have something to drink, and we'll have lunch together when I come out."

"Okay." Jian Changche ran away in a hurry after hearing the words.

Zong Chi looked at his back, and smiled helplessly: "I haven't told you where the kitchen is..."
