Chapter 270 Departure and Memories
"You don't need to bring this, I have it at home."
Seeing Jiang Xiyue stuffing toiletries into the suitcase, Linzhou quickly reached out to stop her, saying that she couldn't take those things with her.
If his mother knew that his daughter-in-law had to bring her own toiletries when she came back, that home would no longer belong to him and he might even get scolded.
No matter how you think about it, it's not worth it...
After being stopped by Linzhou, the girl looked up blankly, blinked her big eyes, hesitated for a moment before speaking.
"I think I'm used to using my own things."
"I mean you don't need to bring toothbrush and other things. Your family bought new ones for you." Linzhou explained and then looked at Jiang Xiyue's 19-inch small suitcase.
After thinking for a moment, Linzhou continued speaking.
"Just fill this suitcase and my large school bag with our things."
"If you don't need to bring toiletries , it should be about the same." Jiang Xiyue tilted her head and continued to pack patiently.
Originally Linzhou wanted to help, but was looked down upon for being clumsy, so he could only watch from the side and eat lunch at the door before leaving.
Since they bought tickets for the afternoon, the two were not in a hurry.
About fifteen minutes later, the girl closed the box with a full sense of ceremony and sat quietly beside it.
"Zhou Zhou, take your computer and other things with you. I also bought a gift for Su Su this time. Do you think she likes bracelets? I bought her a bracelet."
As she spoke, Jiang Xiyue found a wooden box from the bag next to her. When she opened it, she found a jade bracelet inside.
The quality is not that good, just an ordinary glutinous rice flower, worth only a few thousand yuan.
It's appropriate to send it to my sister-in-law...
But Linzhou was always a talkative person. He glanced at the color on it and said, "No need to give such a nice gift. Su Su just started high school. Some silver jewelry or something will be fine."
"That won't work. Your sister is my sister. What if she is deceived by a bad boy? She must be raised in a wealthy family, otherwise she might be deceived by a lollipop." Jiang Xiyue argued, then closed the box and put it in her bag.
After hearing this, Linzhou didn't want to retort. It was best for his wife and sister to get along well with each other.
But he knew that in addition to buying gifts for Susu during the holidays, Yueyue would also fill in the address and send her back whenever she saw a pretty dress.
There are only a few pieces of clothing in her own wardrobe, and she even says that she has a fiancé, so why dress up?
Thinking about these things, Lin Zhou put the suitcase at the door, then sat next to Jiang Xiyue, stretched out his arms to hug her, and said in a serious and earnest tone, "Well, then, weren't you, a little rich woman, deceived by a bad boy like me?"
"Stupid Zhou Zhou, think carefully, who deceived whom between us." Jiang Xiyue answered at the speed of light, with a faint smile on her face all the time.
Love is always a two-way journey; there is no such thing as one cheating on the other.
Although Linzhou understood this truth, after hearing what Jiang Xiyue said, he subconsciously began to recall what happened between the two of them.
From chatting with him on the bus, to being invited to his home and taking the initiative to help fetch water...
“Fuck…Yueyue, you little girl has a routine.”
"No, you fooled me." Seeing that Linzhou had the wrong idea, Jiang Xiyue quickly gave in, otherwise she would be bullied before dinner.
Pressing on the bed to tickle the itch or something, it's too scary...
I have a lot of ticklish spots, and if I scratch them deliberately, I will laugh until I die. I don’t have time to play with this bad guy today.
After seeing Jiang Xiyue surrender, Linzhou said nothing and just looked at his phone.
The girl next to him continued to say some disgusting words.
"Well, the first time I saw you, it was a strange feeling... Wow, on the first day, I met a boy who was late on the bus, and then I found out that you slept like a pig..."
Having said that, Jiang Xiyue observed Linzhou's expression before continuing.
"But, when you look up, you're still pretty handsome. But if you call me Potato Thunder, I'll be angry now, too."
…
Hearing this, Linzhou looked at the girl beside him, thought for a moment, and then asked.
"So when did you really start to like me? I've always been curious about this."
"This... can you keep it a secret?" Jiang Xiyue's face was full of cute expressions, but she really didn't want to tell this matter. After all, although the relationship between the two of them heated up quickly, it was not the kind of love that was formed because of a certain thing.
The process of changing a habit into a liking is a very subtle thing. In short, he can't live without Zhou Zhou now.
Seeing that Jiang Xiyue said she wanted to keep it a secret, Linzhou didn't know what to say, and then he began to think about how he fell in love with the little girl.
But after thinking for a long time, he still couldn't figure out why.
Is this the most unreasonable thing about a relationship?
It seemed as if everything was very natural, without so many things happening. If you asked him to say what qualities he particularly liked in Jiang Xiyue, he could say it, but he really couldn't describe in words how he came to like her.
The difference between I like you and I love you is also a complicated thing, but it doesn't matter now.
Future life is the most important thing.
Just like some time ago, Yueyue asked him to sell the apartment over there, but he refused. The reason was very simple. That apartment was considered a school district house. If he had children in the future, it would be more convenient for them to go to school.
When Jiang Xiyue heard this reason, he gave up the idea of selling the apartment after thinking for more than ten seconds.
Thinking of Linzhou here, he turned his head and looked at Jiang Xiyue.
"By the way, Yueyue, what was your motivation for asking me to sell the apartment last time?"
"It's just to give you some cash, there's no other idea, but later I figured it out, that's the house you bought with your first pot of gold, it has commemorative significance."
Having said that, the girl leaned her head against Linzhou and continued speaking in a soft voice.
"So I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked you to sell something meaningful to me. It would be very sad if I were to sell the dress you gave me and those little things."
After hearing Jiang Xiyue's words... Linzhou was silent for a moment, then smiled and touched the other person's head.
"Stupid, the thing that has commemorative significance to me is not the apartment, but the keypad phone I used before. Because I needed to make calls and send and receive text messages, and I had no money, I spent a few dozen dollars to buy a working one."
"Well ...did you put it away properly?" Jiang Xiyue asked softly.
"Of course I have. I put it in the phone box you gave me. I will never throw away that box because it was the first thing you gave me."
While Linzhou was explaining his thoughts to Jiang Xiyue, his phone suddenly rang.
Seeing the name on the video request, he pressed the answer button.
"Mom, what's wrong?"
"What time do you arrive at the airport? I'll ask your dad to pick you up."
"Landing at 7:30 pm."
"Well, be careful..."
After agreeing, Linzhou hung up the phone and looked at the girl next to him.
The girl sat very straight, like a primary school student being scolded. If her mother-in-law saw her sticking to her mother-in-law all day, she would dislike her.
Jiang Xiyue must handle the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law well, and there will definitely not be any chaos in the family because of this.
Even if we have different opinions, the worst that can happen is that we just give in...
Both mothers are mothers. Look at Zhou Zhou. When she meets her mother-in-law, she instantly turns into a little brat who can only nod and say yes, no problem.
If Zhou Zhou can say it, why can't she?
Moreover, the way her own mother looks at Zhou Zhou is the same as the way a mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law. The more she looks, the more she likes him.
Seeing that Jiang Xiyue had entered a stagnant state, Linzhou just smiled and hugged her in his arms.
Sitting on Linzhou's lap, the girl looked out the window. She was still in her nightgown, but just as she was about to say something, the bad guy holding her answered the phone again.
"Okay... got it... my dad will pick me up when the time comes... don't worry, I will definitely take good care of Yueyue."
After listening to Linzhou's answer, Jiang Xiyue knew that the person on the other end of the phone must be her mother.
Of course, if you are making a phone call, you don’t have to get off Linzhou’s legs. It’s also nice to just sit there. Although it’s not as comfortable as a bed, it feels different.
After hanging up the phone, Linzhou stood up holding Jiang Xiyue and placed her on the windowsill of the bedroom.
" Did you hear that? Your mother asked me to take good care of you."
"Well, I believe you will take good care of me." The girl nodded her little head vigorously and sat upright on the windowsill.
She knew that every time Linzhou put her on the windowsill, he had something very important to say.
This time I think it's also a very important matter...
However, after Linzhou kissed her, Jiang Xiyue finally realized that this guy actually had such thoughts. But this was also a very important matter.
If she goes back this time, she will probably have to live with Susu because there may be relatives at home.
If you stick it like this, you can only do it with your back to others, so it’s okay to stick it now.
Thinking of this, Jiang Xiyue became much more obedient and hugged Linzhou's back with both hands, but none of them noticed that Sakurai Kei, who came to send them to the airport, had already arrived downstairs and was standing in the yard, looking up.
Sakurai Megumi was so amazed that she didn't even think of taking out her cell phone to record the scene. She just uttered sincere admiration.
“That’s amazing.”
-----------------
Soon, Linzhou also noticed Sakurai Kei standing there, and he held Jiang Xiyue's head with both hands to prevent her from looking back.
If this kid is shy, he's really going to break apart.
So, holding the girl's face with both hands, Linzhou spoke word by word...
"Well, silly Yueyue, you have to remember that in the Northeast in winter, if someone tells you that iron is sweet, don't believe it and don't lick it."
