Mr. Ma was meditating under the tree, and Xu Hongdou was wearing a shawl and being pulled by Aunt Agui to chat.
In and out of words, Aunt Agui was expressing her pride. She had worked so hard to raise a son and a daughter. Only she and her lover knew how much hardship they had endured and how much they had suffered.
In the past, their family's financial situation was one of the poorest in the entire village, but with the passage of time, they were finally able to feel proud and proud.
"Aunt Agui, do you know how to get to Xiaochun's cafe?"
"Of course I know, it's very close..." When Aunt Agui heard that Xu Hongdou, who she had been chatting with for so long, wanted to ask for the direction of the coffee shop, she enthusiastically introduced the way to the coffee shop.
As a result, a familiar voice came from outside the yard and interrupted her speech.
"Aunt Agui, who wants to go to the coffee shop?"
"Oh, it's Ayao who's back." Aunt Agui stopped what she was about to say and greeted Xie Zhiyao happily. At the same time, she saw Pigeon walking with a strange man and asked, "Hey
, Gezi, why did you go out for a trip and come back with your boyfriend?"
"Aunt Agui, this is my friend, the new resident of the courtyard, not who you think." Gezi looked at Xie Zhiyao, who was smiling and watching the show, and stamped his feet to explain.
She is not old and is not in a hurry to find someone to date.
The arrival of Zhang Wentao stopped Xu Hongdou, who was about to leave. Is there a new guest today?
Although several quick goodbyes in the hospital left some impression on Xu Hongdou, Zhang Wentao's appearance also changed in more than half a year.
My hair has grown, my skin has tanned, and my beard...
In fact, it's normal that they don't recognize each other. They never communicated every time they met. In addition, every time they met, Xu Hongdou was anxiously busy with his friends' affairs. For seven or eight months, it stayed in my mind.
His figure has long been blurred.
"Long time no see, why are you here?"
Zhang Wentao, who walked in with a bag on his back, immediately recognized Xu Hongdou, who was no longer as worried as when he was in the hospital. He greeted him softly across a few people.
Xu Hongdou was surprised, pointed at himself and said, "Me?"
It seems that the other party didn't recognize me. It's no wonder that there are so many handsome men around beautiful women, so I can't be considered a green onion.
Zhang Wentao secretly mocked himself, smiled awkwardly, and said, "Mr. Xie, please take me to my room. I want to take a rest early."
When he walked to the small courtyard just now, he had already transferred the money to the other party via WeChat. The rent for Youfeng Small Courtyard starts from three months. Although he is not sure whether he will live here for three months, but for the sake of Xie Zhi
Because of the discount given by Yao because of the pigeon, Zhang Wentao also paid three months' rent.
Anyway, the price is not expensive, and the three-month rent is not as expensive as the one-month rent of the house he rented in BJ. If you don't like it here, you can just stay for ten days and a half and leave.
"Ah, okay, okay. Then I'll take you there first, Xu Hongdou. If you want to drink coffee, wait for me and I'll take you there. It just so happens that Pigeon wants to drink too, and he was talking about it all the way."
Saying that, Xie Zhiyao led Zhang Wentao to Building 5 on the second floor with a somewhat complicated mood.
"Zi Zi, I'm going to bed first. I'll contact you when you have time."
"Oh, okay, Brother Wen Tao."
She was originally wondering why Xie Zhiyao always took the initiative to introduce everyone to her in the past, but now she didn't do as usual. When she heard her name, she tilted her head and looked at Xu Hongdou.
This person is so pretty...she just moved in or has she been here for a few days? It seems that Brother Wen Tao knows her, but she doesn't know him? It's strange, maybe Mr. Xie likes this woman and is afraid that she will be
Brother Wen Tao snatched it away, so he didn’t introduce it.
Then why let Brother Wen Tao move in? Is this considered inviting a wolf into the house? Or is it shooting oneself in the foot?
Xu Hongdou was also confused. She looked back blankly and glanced at Zhang Wentao who was walking up the steps. This man seemed to have a strange way of saying hello.
Arriving at the door of Room 5, Xie Zhiyao opened the door, looked it over, then turned back to Zhang Wentao and pointed to the small platform of the stairs and introduced:
"This is the rest area on the second floor. This is Room 5. Basic daily necessities can be purchased at the small shop at the entrance of the village. If you want to change the bed sheets and bedding, you need to go to the ancient town."
After looking around the environment of the room, Zhang Wentao nodded. It looked like it was at least much better than an ordinary B&B: "Well, that's it, thank you. If you don't mind, I'd like to wash up and rest first."
Seeing that Zhang Wentao was so cheerful, Xie Zhiyao was embarrassed to stay for a long time, mainly because Xu Hongdou and Pigeon were still waiting for him below, so he nodded and said: "Okay, you can rest first. If you have any problems then, just call me.
"
After saying that, he exited Room 5. After Zhang Wentao nodded, he closed the door and casually threw his hiking bag on the wooden board covered with blankets. He took off his hard-shell jacket and couldn't wait to lie down on the bed.
The sheets smelled like sunshine, but there was no peculiar smell. They should have been changed.
Forget it, don't worry about it for now, I'm so sleepy.
…
The coffee shop is not very far from the small courtyard. If you don't take a detour, the three of you can walk there in more than ten minutes. On the way, Xie Zhiyao interestingly told the story between himself and the solution of linear equations of one variable.
Xu Hongdou smiled and said, "Prince Pony, I'm glad you figured it out."
Pigeon also smiled: "Mr.
.”
"Hey Zhang Wentao, yes, then I'm really curious." Xie Zhiyao turned his head and looked at the pigeon, with a hint of amusement in his eyes.
"It's true. Brother Madman showed me a photo of the two of them when they first met. By the way, Madman is the good friend I mentioned to you before."
Xu Hongdou was stuck in the middle. While listening to Ge Ge's explanation, he suddenly felt that he had seen this name somewhere, but he couldn't remember it clearly.
After listening to Ge Ge’s explanation, Xie Zhiyao didn’t take it too seriously and said with a faint smile:
"By the way, Pigeon, you have to go to the tie-dye workshop later. Director Liu and the others are here to record a video for Sister and the others today. You have to go over and help, take some promotional photos and send them to the public account."
He's just a tourist, so why should he take it to heart? It's not the person next to him.
Pigeon nodded: "Well, okay. Look, I prepared the camera specially. In order to rush back early this morning, I took the first flight. You may want to treat me later and reward me, a dedicated little employee.
.”
Xie Zhiyao smiled and said: "Don't worry, I'm treating you. By the way, Xu Hongdou, just tell me what you want to drink or eat. I'll pay for the consumption in the cafe today."
Hearing this, Xu Hongdou smiled slightly and said, "No, I can do it myself, and you can do your business."
"Sister Hongdou, our Mr. Xie is usually stingy. It's rare for him to be generous. Don't miss the opportunity. Besides, Mr. Xie's fortune is huge, hehe."
Looking at the smile on Xie Zhiyao's face, Pigeon couldn't understand that she was just bringing herself along for the treat. However, as an employee, and she admired Xie Zhiyao's character, she naturally wanted to take the initiative to assist and help out.
This single boss.
After all, everyone sees his contribution to the village. He is so old, and he happens to meet someone who can pay attention to him...
