rain is not far

Without a cigarette, Qi Shiyu looked back at the eldest sister in the store who had been watching her with vigilant eyes, and decided to buy cigarettes at a convenience store.

Walking down the street, he stopped when he passed a pharmacy, went in and bought a box of painkillers and a jar of ointment.

In fact, the hangover was far worse than tonight's family dinner as a headache for him.

Yesterday he received a call from Xiaoan who told him that he met his parents when he was shopping with his new boyfriend.It didn't take long for him to receive a notice that the second elder would come to the store for dinner today.

He knew that the delicate balance that had been maintained for nearly two years was about to be broken again.

The weather in September was still very hot, so he walked into a convenience store, bought cigarettes and water, first poured down a painkiller with water, and lit another cigarette.

He remembered how that man was smoking last night, his eyes were hidden behind the rising smoke, his eyelashes drooped slightly, his fingers holding the cigarette were long and slender, and the thin lips biting the filter were also very beautiful.Sitting under the dim light of the hotel, he was so sexy.

Very gentle, but also very sexy.

For a moment, Qi Shiyu regretted not exchanging a contact information with him, but in the next second he denied himself righteously: What is the exchange, is this an addiction to lying down?

Thinking wildly all the way, I bought a few chicken legs at the small vegetable market at the entrance of the alley, and turned into Baihua Alley.

No. 6 Baihua Lane is both the address and the name of the store.In the small courtyard with two entrances, the wall facing the street of the inverted building has graffiti with the words "Baihua Lane [-]". When he walked into the gate that opened to the east, he saw a girl with a ponytail sweeping the floor with a broom.Hearing footsteps, the girl looked up and showed a bright smile: "Shopkeeper, I'm back from vacation! Why is it so early today?"

"Shaodong's family is in elementary school." Qi Shiyu yawned, "We will deliver at 07:30 on weekdays and pick up at 03:30 in the afternoon. Little girl, do you want to have a healthy life and rest? Raise a cub!"

The door of the inverted room opened towards the front yard door, and a muscular man with green stubble shaved head walked out. Qi Shiyu handed him the chicken leg in his hand, and said, "My parents will come over for dinner tonight, Brother He, You burn a chicken drumstick for Xiao Lang."

He Dong took the plastic bag and tentatively asked, "Eat in the store?"

"Let's eat in the store, it's better if there are more people here." Qi Shiyu took the broom in the girl's hand, "Xiaoxi, go and rest for a while, I'll sweep it."

He Xi smiled and went back to the house.There were only two men left in the yard, and while He Dong was fiddling with the two sweet-scented osmanthus trees in front of the store, he said, "Why do uncles and aunts think of coming over for dinner?"

"Yesterday, the old lady went shopping and met Xiao An." Qi Shiyu swept the floor casually, "It's also a coincidence that Xiao An is with his boyfriend."

"..." He Dong paused, "And then?"

"Then my mother called and said that she was coming to eat today." Qi Shiyu dumped the cleaned up dust into the trash can, "You still don't know my mother? There are dozens of photos of the girl in your hand, and she finally caught her If there is an opportunity, I will definitely be advised to 'try' again."

"Your family's attitude is indeed..." He Dong couldn't think of a suitable adjective for a long time, "Strange."

Qi Shiyu showed an indifferent smile: "For this matter, the acceptable family attitudes are similar, and the unacceptable attitudes are really strange."

He Dong didn't know what to say, so he took an enamel pot from the yard, and silently picked osmanthus.Qi Shiyu put the broom back in place, rubbed his arms, and changed the subject: "Don't talk about it, brother, the quality of your tattoo stickers is really good, it can't be washed off even in the shower, it looks real."

"It's expensive." He Dong said, "It can be faked for a week. If you posted it yesterday, you have to wash it today. It's a waste."

Qi Shiyu rubbed his arms vigorously: "If my mother wants to see this big tattoo on my arm, she has to stick it on... Hey, brother, no matter how you wash this thing, it won't come off even if you rub it."

He Dong patted his hands: "Stop rubbing, go to Xiaoxi for a makeup remover, it will be gone after a while."

Qi Shiyu agreed, and was just about to go back to the store, but He Dong stopped him: "By the way, where did you fool around yesterday? From what you mean, you took a bath outside?"

"..."

"Don't look at me, what Aunt Li said just now when she came out to sneak mushrooms, you didn't go home last night." He Dong's hand gestures for picking osmanthus flowers are extremely skillful, but this incident really doesn't fit well with his macho image , "Aunt Li said that she watched Xiao Lang fall asleep after nine o'clock yesterday, and went back to the room to watch TV by herself until 12:30, but you didn't come back."

"If you want me to say that Aunt Li is really blind as a babysitter, she should go to the KGB." Qi Shiyu curled her lips, "It is said to take care of Qi Lang, but it is actually the eyeliner my parents put here. Yesterday when my mother called Say, 'Don't think I don't know, Xiao An hasn't been home with you for half a year', do you think I should give Aunt Li an extra salary?"

"I can't take care of your family's affairs, let's take it easy." He Dong finished picking one tree, and then changed another one, "You make today's dessert, and I'll make some sweet-scented osmanthus later .”

"Row."

Qi Shiyu returned to the store, first went to He Xi to borrow a bottle of makeup remover.He Xi is He Dong's younger sister, and now she is in university in this city. She usually helps out in the restaurant when she has no classes. The opening hours of the hot pot restaurant are always late. Sometimes when you meet customers who are chatting with you, it is not uncommon for them to close at one or two o'clock. Son, the siblings sometimes stay here, and He Xi also leaves some daily necessities here.

Hearing that Qi Shiyu asked her to borrow makeup remover, she couldn't help laughing: "Oh, brother Qi, you finally got the hang of it? I told you to come to our club activities to try the women's clothing boss..."

"Stop, stop, I refuse." Qi Shiyu crossed his hands in front of his chest, making a gesture of rejection, "I want to wipe the tattoo stickers."

He Xi handed him the makeup remover and cotton pads, seeing how clumsy he was, she couldn't help snatching them up to help him wipe them off.The large ukiyo-e style tattoo on the arm was wiped off, and a small pile of cotton pads was thrown beside it in a short while.

He Xi changed another one, the girl's hand was light, but Qi Shiyu's arm was still a little red, He Xi wiped it and said: "Brother Qi, you are really fair, and your skin is also good."

Qi Shiyu was startled by the tone of the exchange of skin care experience between the little sisters. He Xi's makeup remover cotton had already wiped the inner side of his wrist, and there was the only real tattoo on Qi Shiyu's body, with a lifelike knot tattooed on it. The cord stretches out to the sides, tapering off, eventually becoming a thin line resembling an EKG.

He Xi's eyes suddenly became a little sad, and she murmured: "Brother Qi, you obviously did nothing wrong, why is it so difficult?"

Qi Shiyu lowered his eyes, looked at the back of He Xi's ponytailed head, and reached out to rub her braids, as if to comfort her.

In the next second, the hand rubbing her braids patted the back of her head gently, and the painting style changed suddenly in a scene of tenderness: "If you have time to think about this, go wash your hands and help me make a cake. You can see the comments on some comments. Have you commented on our shop? "City B has the best cakes, the hotpot restaurant with the most handsome boss and super delicious coffee", sister, it's useless to hurt the spring and autumn, only the people who stay in our shop can make money, understand?"
