let me look at you

Chapter 67 It's lucky to be able to pay back (1)
Ju Nian thanked Tang Ye for giving him a chance to repay. If you don't have this chance, no matter what you owe, the so-called compensation can only be the other party's burden.She was lucky to be able to pay back.

The phone in Tang Ye's living room seemed to ring a few times. Later, the voice of the phone came into the room, which was vague and inaudible.Ju Nian wanted to get out of this embarrassing place as soon as possible, and put all her attention on the work at hand. Maybe if she focused more, she would be able to think less about the consequences of her dog biting Lu Dongbin.Just as the work was about to be completed, Tang Ye walked in quickly with an anxious expression on his face.

"You go now."

Hearing the words, Ju Nian blinked his eyes, said nothing, and subconsciously packed his things quickly.Perhaps, she guessed, the other owner of the house had returned, and she had to leave immediately.As for whether the other owner was a man or a woman, and why she had to avoid it, she didn't want to know.

In desperation, Ju Nian quickly stuffed the scattered carton fragments, extra cloth strips and tools into his big bag. At this moment, Tang Ye, who returned to the living room, seemed to hear the movement outside the door and stopped She wanted to run out the idea of ​​the door.

He said: "Slow down, people are already outside, you can't go out from the door at this time..."

Ju Nian was at a loss when she heard the words, she hesitated for a moment, then gently opened the corner of the curtain, and looked out the window.She remembered correctly, the house was indeed on the eleventh floor.Lowering the curtains, she wisely chose to stand still.

"Alas!" Tang Ye seemed to sigh, the doorbell rang without any surprise, he hurried to answer, leaving Ju Nian to stay where he was, he didn't even explain, since she shouldn't stay here, in this case , so what should I do.

After the door opened and closed, Ju Nian held his breath when he heard Tang Ye's voice.

"You too, don't say hello when you come here, so I can pick you up." Although Tang Ye complained, his tone was low and kind.

"It's not necessary now. When I really can't walk anymore, it won't be too late for you to carry me in a wheelchair. I'll come here today to give you something. Your father is gone, and you won't go back to the house over there." .” It was an old female voice, still with a bit of accent of local dialect. "Don't like me coming? Is it really like what your aunt said, this is an exclusive village where you are only allowed to live in it, and no one else can come? I told her, I don't believe it, you should be brought up by me of."

Ju Nian didn't hear Tang Ye's answer, and after a while, he said: "Sit down quickly, come all the way, I'll pour tea."

The people outside the living room seemed to be seated, Ju Nian didn't dare to show his air, and shyly moved towards the blind corner of the half-opened door.

"Aye, just got a new sofa cover?" Putting down the cup, the old woman's voice came again.

"I didn't order it."

"You didn't order it, so who else..." The old man was puzzled for a while, and then let out a long "oh", "I'm confused, who else can be? It's the one your aunt introduced to you last time." Girl? After all, young people are careful, but the material is a little plain."

Even if he couldn't see anyone, Ju Nian could still imagine the old man smiling when he spoke.It seems that all the elders in the world are eager for children who have passed the marriageable age to start a family and start a career as soon as possible. If fate goes another way, and she is now by her parents' side, will there be people who are so concerned and chattering? She thought mockingly to herself, maybe There is really another way, and she may not be alone.

Tang Ye didn't deny it, thinking that the girl was the one who asked Ju Nian to place the order that day. Ju Nian seemed to be able to recall some details of the day at this time. People in the river of love.

Tang Ye's tone could not detect emotion, "Auntie, I have told my aunt many times that a man and a woman do not necessarily have to be together if they are compatible. The reason why I went to see that girl is really I don't want to spoil Auntie's interest and her good intentions, but..."

The old man interrupted Tang Ye but, "You want to tell me about your young people's feelings again, love at first sight, I don't understand these things, but I have seen that girl, she is good-looking, educated, and polite, People also have that kind of thought about you. Aye, you are in your thirties, what kind of fairy do you want to be satisfied with? Your father is at your age... Forget it, let’s not talk about it, your aunt told me I advise you, but you may not be able to listen to what I say... Aye, don't blame me for talking too much. The reason why your aunt is so worried is because she heard some gossiping rumors outside. What? When a man finds a man, the better the conditions..."

"Nonsense!" Tang Ye's voice suddenly rose, accompanied by the sound of rattan chair feet rubbing against the wooden floor.Ju Nian was also taken aback, even if she was such a nosy person, her ears could not help but prick up.

"Grandmother, you are just like my aunt. You listen to all kinds of rumors. How can there be such a thing?" Tang Ye obviously understood that he had lost his composure. No matter what, he should not be rude in front of the old man, and his voice softened this time. Quite a few, "I don't like that girl because I hate other people's interference in my living habits. I have gone out with her a few times, but I haven't gotten to know her well enough to treat me as her own place and order these sofas." Cover, pillow, she didn't even ask me."

"The girl's family also cares about you. Ah Ye, people have to find a partner in this world. You are always single, and you don't talk about it alone. Others..."

"Who said I don't have a partner?" Tang Ye spoke quickly, and then fell silent after finishing speaking, as if regretting his impulsive defense.Ju Nian couldn't help but think of the man wearing glasses who stood there that night, watching Tang Ye's car leave. His resentful gaze still makes Ju Nian shiver.

"You found someone by yourself?" The old man's voice returned to surprise, "What do girls do? Where is their home? Why don't you show it to your aunt and aunt, and let us old people worry about you !"

Tang Ye didn't answer right away. He forgot that a lie must be covered by countless lies. My aunt is old, but she is as good as his aunt, and Tang Ye didn't fully imagine the person who blurted out. , how is that girl?Faced with this question, he didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Well, not exactly pretty," he said vaguely.

"Our Tang family can't find an ugly monster."

"Of course it's not ugly." He also spoke slowly.

"Then what does she do? Is her home local? Was it introduced by a colleague in your bureau? How old is she? How is her temperament?"

Tang Ye was obviously stumped by the rapid-fire questioning.Ju Nian thought to himself, it's true that Han Shu said she lied like eating, at least not everyone can lie like her without changing face, Tang Ye is obviously a person who doesn't know how to do it.

"You child, why are you ashamed in front of your aunt, but tell me, how old is that girl and what does she do?" The old man repeated the important question again.

"Well, that... works in a fabric store, a few years younger than me."

Ju Nian blinked his eyes alone, and after his brain reacted, he was shocked like a bolt from the blue sky. Even if the highest state of lying is the key lie mixed with ten truths, but...

"I'll call your aunt. It just so happens that these two days are weekends. You take that girl out, otherwise your aunt and I will be in a panic."

Tang Ye didn't speak again, this time his silence made Ju Nian's heart beat like a drum, as if she had expected the most terrifying possibility, and in her panic, she couldn't help opening the curtains again.

The eleventh floor is still too high.

She should have had experience, the worst guesses in her life were often the truth.Sure enough, Tang Ye seemed to have made up his mind after a while, and only heard him say: "Well, aunt, she, she is in the room now."

Ju Nian closed his eyes with a painful expression at that moment.

"what?"

Just at the moment when the old man pushed the door and entered, Ju Nian changed his face and put on a slightly shy smile, "Hello, auntie."

When she said this, she saw Tang Ye's pale face showing an expression of initial shock.Maybe he couldn't bet on Ju Nian's reaction, but this time, he made the right bet, Ju Nian owed him.

"That... This is my aunt, that is, my father's aunt. My aunt has always lived with us, and I was brought up by her." Tang Ye concealed his embarrassment.

Ju Nian hurriedly said, "Auntie, my name is Xie Ju Nian." This was not only introducing himself to the old man, but also introducing himself to a man who told a big lie without even knowing her name.After she finished speaking, she looked up and down at the old man, and at the interval between Tang Ye and Tang Ye, and quickly stuffed the orange vest, the fabric shop uniform that she had just taken off a second ago, behind the curtain.

Next, the old man took Ju Nian's hand and sat on the sofa, not to mention the kind and gossip. From the beginning to the end, Tang Ye sat quietly on the rattan chair on one side, listening to the old and the young. conversation of two women.

Ju Nian smiled at her aunt's nagging from time to time. She has always been a person whose heart moves faster than her mouth, and knows that when the situation is unclear, facing a kind old man's interrogation, the more she talks, the more mistakes she makes .Maybe it was because she was really nervous in her heart, the roots of her ears were always red, and fine beads of sweat stood out from her hairline.But this appearance coincides with the old man's image of a gentle, honest, reserved, and soft-spoken shy girl when he first met his elders.
