Chapter 24
Zhang Yue said that as a woman, she has the right to indulge her emotions, stay away from reason and rules, so she laughed at her and named her shop Zuoan.

Xiang Yuan snorted, "Of course you can live on the 'Left Bank' as a matter of course, but ordinary people work for a day or even a few days, they are as tired as a dog, and the money they earn may not be able to buy a glass of wine here. Looking over, most people are still busy on the other side of you."

Most of the people she mentioned included herself. After working, she was like all office workers in this city, leaving early and returning late, busy for three meals.Fortunately, Yongkai paid a lot of money. In addition to providing for his daily expenses and Xiangyao's tuition and living needs, Xiang Yuan also rented a small single room near the company. The stock has doubled up to now, find a more suitable time to sell it, and struggle for another year or two. It is not a distant dream to buy such a small house. Xiang Yuan is not dissatisfied at all. She knows that she Sure to find a place in the city, even better than imagined.

She still called Uncle Ye and Mrs. Ye from time to time to express their condolences to each other, but she still visited the Ye family less often, and occasionally went to have a meal.After Ye Qianze entered Jiangyuan, the burden on Ye Binglin's shoulders didn't seem to have eased, he was still busy, but his age was there after all, and he was much harder to cope with the same work intensity than before.Xiang Yuan also met Ye Qianze once or twice, and simply greeted her with superficial greetings. She felt Qianze's faint loss. Distance is really a delicate thing. After he returned to China, she was separated from others. It's close, but the heart is far away.

In fact, Xiang Yuan has no complaints against Ye Qianze, their estrangement may not be his problem, he still wants to treat her sincerely as a friend—maybe it has always been like this, but she woke up by herself.Every time she gets closer to him, Xiang Yuan finds that her restraint is not as reliable as she imagined. She understands him, but seeing him still makes her feel uncomfortable. She doesn't want to torture herself.

According to Ye Yun, Ye Ling's condition has basically stabilized, but it is impossible for her to go to school and work like a normal person. Most of the time she spends her time in her room thinking about things she only understands, even if she doesn't get sick , it is also possible to remain motionless for a whole day.Mrs. Ye, Aunt Yang, and a full-time nurse hired by the Ye family watched over her day and night, and the doctor also came to the house regularly for checkups. Her illness did not deteriorate, but there was no hope of recovery.

Ye Yun is still the person who has the closest relationship with Xiang Yuan in the Ye family. After school, he often takes the bus to Xiang Yuan's residence to find her. Sometimes I asked a simple algebra question, and sometimes I stopped by to see her after playing golf with my classmates at a nearby field. When I came, I would definitely have a meal. Xiang Yuan didn't cook, he made it himself.When Xiang Yuan had something to go out, he was not in a hurry to leave. He continued to surf the Internet in her room and closed the door for her when he returned.The number of visits has increased, and the landlord also knows that this boy in high school uniform is Xiang Yuan's younger brother. Sometimes Xiang Yuan is not around, and the landlord will take the initiative to open the door for Ye Yun.What surprised Xiang Yuan the most was that one time when she came home from overtime work, she saw Ye Yun watching TV at the house of the over-the-top mature woman from a foreign company opposite her door.

Ever since Xiang Yao's words, Xiang Yuan actually harbored a grudge against Ye Yun, not without hatred, but in the final analysis, hatred is useless, Xiang Yi died too early, Xiang Yuan tried hard to think back, but along the way , Ye Yun has far more memories of being by her side than her younger brother who died young.It turns out that it is the same with the closest relatives, death is like a lamp going out, and the living people are greedy for the kindness and warmth that is within reach. It is not that she has forgotten Ah Yi, but that she is more willing than the pain that Ah Yi left her. I remember the way Ye Yun laughed.Sometimes Xiang Yuan said to himself that if Ye Yun really did something wrong back then, he would treat Ah Yi as his punishment.

Once, Xiang Yuan forgot to bring her keys when she went out. It happened that the landlord was out on a trip. In the cold weather, she huddled outside the house and couldn't get in. In the end, she didn't have to ask a locksmith to pick the lock, which solved the problem.She remembered Zhang Yue's words: "Do you know what is the most important thing for a single woman? NO, NO...not a man, but a door key." So when changing the lock, in addition to returning one to the landlord, Xiang Yuan also gave Ye Yun a hand in case of emergency.

After having the key, Ye Yun seemed to have obtained a permit, and came more frequently.Xiang Yuan said to him more than once, "You don't go home after school, why do you hang around me all the time, and your father and aunt don't talk about you." Ye Yun blinked and said: "Auntie and father let you I often come to see you, the house is too quiet, and my heart feels suffocated, I might as well do my homework with you. Besides, I can still do work for you. "

In fact, Xiang Yuan's residence doesn't have any work for him to do. The [-]-square-meter single room has nothing but daily necessities. Xiang Yuan is not keen on housework, but she is definitely not a careless person. Reduce items as much as possible, less things, naturally tidy, so Ye Yun often said that the place where she lives is like a student dormitory during military training.Even so, he still tried his best to use his light and heat, such as helping her collect clothes, cooking a bowl of noodles and so on. Once, he even brought back a stray dog ​​to Xiang Yuan, but Xiang Yuan sternly rejected him in the end. Ye Yun took her home very frustrated. Ye Ling couldn't put it down when he saw the scarlet Pekingese, and refused to let it go. Seeing that she liked her, Ye Binglin and his wife realized that keeping a pet might be good for her condition, so that Aunt Yang couldn't let it go. After cleaning the dog, he also agreed to let it stay.

Although Xiang Yuan didn't think much of what Ye Yun did, but seeing him doing it with gusto, it's not easy to discourage his enthusiasm. After all, if it doesn't affect her own life, why should she follow someone else's? Little fun can't pass.Sometimes when he opened the door of his residence after get off work and saw the neatly folded clothes on the stool beside the bed, Xiang Yuan would jokingly call Ye Yun "the snail boy".

Although this kind of life is peaceful, there are also embarrassing times. For example, when Xiang Yuan found out that Ye Yun packed her clothes, even the underwear was neatly folded for her, and there was another time when she came home after get off work. Changing clothes and hurrying to go out, but happened to meet Ye Yun opened the door and came in.Xiang Yuan has always felt that as Ye Yun grows older, it may not be a good thing to be too close to him, so she found an opportunity to talk to him as tactfully and clearly as possible, nothing more than saying that he also When he grows up, he is a big boy. Although they feel like brothers and sisters, they are not real brothers and sisters after all. Whether it is for other people's opinions or to avoid embarrassing themselves, they should keep an appropriate distance.Ye Yun was old enough to understand the meaning behind her words, and immediately blushed, feeling ashamed, and finally Xiang Yuan made three agreements with him: first, call before coming here; second, don't stay too late; third, private Items are best not to touch.This prevents embarrassing things from happening again.

Xiang Yuan sighed in his heart, children of the same age, Ye Yun and Xiang Yao seem to have gone to two extremes, one is too worry-free, and the other is too worry-free.After Xiang Yao transferred to a boarding school in G City, because her grades could not keep up, Xiang Yuan had to transfer her to a vocational high school according to her own request.Xiang Yuan's attitude towards Xiang Yao has always been that he does not want to become a talent, but only to be a "person". After Xiang Yao arrived at a vocational high school where the learning atmosphere was loose, he was even more unwilling to study, and spent his days with a group of like-minded classmates all day long. , the hair was dyed colorful at a young age, but the skirt became shorter and shorter.Seeing it in Xiang Yuan's eyes, she still couldn't help scolding her many times, but after thinking about it, forget it, maybe everyone has their own way of life, and not everyone enjoys getting ahead and striving to be better, maybe Xiang Yao also thinks that she My own life is meaningful, as long as she doesn't make any big troubles, don't forcefully interfere with her.After all, compared to the indifference in the past, after Xiang Yao transferred to the city, the relationship between the two sisters has improved a lot. Although there is still a distance from intimacy, at least in front of her sister, Xiang Yao is no longer as restrained and rebellious as before.

Xiang Yao seldom came to Xiang Yuan's residence, one was because she lived on campus, and the other was that her life was much richer than Xiang Yuan's.Once they had dinner together, Xiang Yao mentioned intentionally or unintentionally that he seemed to have seen Ye Yun near the school. Xiang Yuan remembered that Ye Yun's high school was indeed not far from Xiang Yao's vocational high school. It's not unusual, but she still said: "You haven't seen each other for several years, can you still recognize me?"

Xiang Yao bowed his head to eat, and then said: "Why can't I recognize him? But he is very different from before, and he is all lucky. Suddenly, there is a rich dad in the city, and his whole life has changed." In her tone Not without envy,

"Why don't you think that he should have lived a good life with his father in the city since he was born, but he spent more than ten years in the countryside with Cripple Zou. Is this still worthy of your envy?" Xiang Yuan said.

Xiang Yao didn't refute, and there seemed to be a faint look of disappointment on his face, "Anyway, I recognized him, but he might not recognize me."

Xiang Yuan looked surprised, "You used to hate him, saying he was ugly." After she said this, she didn't hear Xiang Yao's answer for a long time. After a while, Xiang Yuan put down his chopsticks after eating, Only then did Xiang Yao say: "He's not as ugly as before."
