Chapter 12
"Hey! Sister Mei, please be careful when you decorate! I have been knocking all day long during the day, which makes me unable to sleep! What time is it now? Isn't the work done yet?" An eighteen-nine-year-old girl from the neighbor's house looking like she was about to go out with a bag on her back. When she passed by Sister Mei's house, she protested angrily inside.
"Xiao Yan, why are you talking? Didn't you beat your house when it was renovating? How can you sleep in broad daylight?" Mei's wife was in a bad mood and went out to argue with the girl.
The girl named Xia, who was called Xiao Yan by Mei Sao, was named Xia Yan. Mei Sao and Xia Yan knew her because Xia Yan's parents were both doctors and contracted a community hospital near the community. Xia Yan worked as a nurse in it. Mei Sao went to the community hospital for treatment. When she was seeing a doctor, she found out that the two families were originally neighbors in Qingyuan Community, so she became familiar with each other.
When Lu Yang heard the noise outside, he knew it was because of his knocking on the wall, and he became even more frustrated. After he dropped the hammer, he went to the temporary faucet in the kitchen to wash his hands and face, and then went to the inner room to change his clothes and shoes.
He still had a lot of troubles he hadn't dealt with, but kindly helped Sister Mei but ended up with such a result. If Sister Mei also thought that these mistakes were all the reasons for him, it would be too boring.
Forget it, it’s better to meddle in other people’s business in the future.
After Lu Yang changed his clothes and shoes, the neighbor's girl Xia Yan had already left. Lu Yang kept his head down and didn't look at Sister Mei, and walked straight to the door.
"Hey! Are you leaving?" Sister Mei hurriedly followed him and grabbed Lu Yang.
"I'm sorry for what happened today. Maybe I'm in a bad mood. I'm a little unpleasant to them. I've misled you..." Lu Yang didn't look back and apologized to Sister Mei.
"This is not your business. They wanted to leave, but they deliberately wanted to find an excuse to rely on you. You came over to help me, and they scolded me. I was the one who should be sorry for me." As Sister Mei said, she started crying.
Lu Yang turned around and looked at Sister Mei, wanting to comfort her, but he didn't know what to say, but just sighed. This poor woman, her husband has been dead for more than two years, still cannot get out of the shadow of the past, and she will cry when encountering small things, but these are the only things that Lu Yang can help her.
"Sorry..." Sister Mei quickly wiped her tears, as if she felt that she had lost her composure in front of Lu Yang.
"It may rain tonight. You go find a large plastic cloth and I will help you cover the sand. I will find someone to pick it tomorrow, otherwise the sand will be very heavy when it gets wet. Those people will probably have to increase the price again." After thinking about it, Lu Yang gave a suggestion to Mrs. Mei.
Helping her can only help this, and it’s time for him to go back and do his own business.
"Forget it, it rains, it will rain. Do whatever you should do. Anyway, no matter what I do, it is always so unhappy." Sister Mei shook her head and looked sad. Lu Yang knew without guessing that she must have thought of her dead husband again.
At some point, Lu Yang's heart suddenly hurt, and cold sweat broke out behind him... Mei's wife lost her husband, but he also lost his Yi Yi. Perhaps because the way she lost was a bit strange, he refused to admit this loss in her heart until now.
Just now, when Lu Yang decided to go back to the rented house, he subconsciously thought in his heart that as soon as he opened the door, Yi Yi would come up. While complaining that he had dirty her clean clothes, he happily brought the hot rice and vegetables, and watched him eat them bit by bit.
Lu Yang couldn't help but be stunned. At this moment, he didn't know whether he was in a dream or in reality. Has he already lost Yi Yi forever?
Those weird tasks are too difficult and cannot be completed at all! Not to mention that they have to save enough 100 points.
"Little Lu? Lu Yang?" Mei Sao shook Lu Yang's arm, probably because Lu Yang's somewhat confused expression scared her.
"Oh..." Lu Yang came to his senses. Suddenly, he was a little scared to return to his rented house.
It was getting darker and I was hungry. No matter what, I had to find a place to eat first. After dinner, I went around the street and found ways to complete those bizarre tasks.
"I have delayed a lot of time today. I'll treat you to dinner. Where do you want to eat?" Mei's wife mentioned it to Lu Yang. She saw that Lu Yang was not very happy and wanted to ease with him.
"No, I have something to do when I go back." Lu Yang politely declined Sister Mei's kindness. He knew that Sister Mei rarely sucked out for dinner. Both of them were very unlucky today, so why both of them even let her lose money?
"Uh... don't be polite to me. I know you don't want me to spend money, but I must invite you today, just treat you as you with me..." Sister Mei suddenly became very persistent, and her tone was a bit of a woman's coquettish feeling.
Maybe Sister Mei had never spoken to Lu Yang in this tone before, or maybe Lu Yang was frightened by Sister Mei's momentary charm. He looked at Sister Mei without saying a word for a long time.
"What's wrong? I'm afraid I'll eat your tender grass?" Seeing Lu Yang's expression that seemed a little scared, Sister Mei smiled: "Sister-in-law knows that you have a master of your name and will not make any decisions about you."
"No..." Lu Yang shook his head quickly, but his stomach started to scream in dissatisfaction at this time. Indeed, he had been hungry for so long after delaying today.
"Then let's go." Mei Sao pulled Lu Yang's arm again and smiled charmingly at him.
Seeing that Sister Mei had been insisting on invitation, Lu Yang had to agree, but he still didn't want Sister Mei to spend too much money: "Then... don't eat outside. Sister Mei, just cook two dishes at home..."
"Are you at home..." Mei's wife hesitated a little. Since her husband left her, she had never invited other men to her home.
"Ah... forget it, I'm really worried about it tonight." Lu Yang seemed to realize that what he said before was a little inappropriate, so he quickly added.
"How can that work? Let's let you taste your sister-in-law's skills tonight. I'm not only good at cooking soup." When Sister Mei heard Lu Yang say this, she suddenly decided to make a decision, and immediately packed up her things and took Lu Yang out and left.
When he went downstairs, Lu Yang answered a call, which was called by Yiya, and asked Lu Yang when he would reply, saying that she had something to do to talk to him in the evening.
Lu Yang hesitated for a moment, looked at the time, and told Yiya that he might not be able to go back at around 7:30. Yiya didn't say anything more and hung up the phone.
Lu Yang and Mei Sao walked downstairs and passed the three-ton sand pile at the entrance of the unit building. Lu Yang looked at the sky and asked Mei Sao again: "Before we go back to eat, go to the building materials store first to see if we can borrow a large plastic cloth from the boss's wife and cover the sand pile, otherwise it will be even worse to go upstairs tomorrow."
Sister Mei shook her head, looking a little lonely: "If you get wet, you'll get wet. At worst, you can add some money to those people tomorrow. No matter what I do, I will have trouble in my life. The more I force some things, the more unhappy it will be. It's better to let it go."
"Don't live this life. Sister Mei, you are still very young and so beautiful. You haven't started this life yet..." Lu Yang wanted to persuade Sister Mei to find someone to marry again, so as not to live such a difficult life for a woman, but she swallowed her words again.
