"Auntie, it's time to eat."

Yu Zhile smiled and brought the cooked dishes out of the kitchen. The moment of trance made Fang Ru think that her family had hired a son-in-law.

"Zhile, how can you let you serve food..."

"It's okay, aunt, I have learned a lot of knowledge today. I will wait for me to become more skillful the next day and come and stir-fry two dishes for you to try."

Yu Zhile brought the braised fish to the table and came over to push Fangru to sit next to the table.

Because the space is narrow, the chairs are usually put away. He looked around and pulled out two red plastic high chairs from the stack of red plastic high chairs by the wall and placed them.

Xue Meier jumped onto one of the chairs, Yu Zhile took out another one, tidied up the dining table, and continued to go back to the kitchen to serve the dishes.

In short, Fang Ru was so embarrassed that she kept urging him to sit down and wait for Xia Zhenyue to clean up, but he refused.

"Auntie, don't say that. I am a young and strong man. If Xiaoyue comes to do these jobs for me, I'm afraid I'll be too embarrassed to eat later."

This child is so nice. Fang Ru sat at the table and watched Yu Zhile return to the kitchen with her gentle eyes.

Xia Zhengyue was stir-frying the last dish, and he was next to her and shaking the fan for her, occasionally talking to her.

Fang Ru was surprised to find that her daughter would actually smile because of his words. Even if the corners of her mouth were slightly pursed, she still couldn't hide her mood. How long has it been since she was so happy?

I always feel that life is too slow and life is too difficult. Fang Ru often worrys that she will not see her daughter getting married, and she will also hope to have a boy her daughter likes. She does not pray for a rich life, can make her happy, can take care of her, and then her wish will be fulfilled.

Then a boy broke into their lives, as if the black and white photos suddenly became radiant.

People who have been in darkness for a long time are the most sensitive to sunlight.

"Yu Zhile... I'll do it, you go and sit outside."

"Let's hurry up, I'm starving."

"Then, I'll wash the pot first."

"Where are the bowls and chopsticks?"

"Here."

Yu Zhile took out the bowls and chopsticks from the cabinet. When he saw a cute small bowl with a cat pattern on the side, he said curiously: "Is this what you use?"

"It's Mei'er's, give it to me."

Yu Zhile washed the dishes and took them out, took out the rice cooker, and started to hold the rice with a spoon.

"Auntie, give it."

Yu Zhile served a bowl of rice and handed it to Fang Ru. She quickly took it with both hands and said apologetically: "I originally invited you to dinner, but I'm sorry for you to do so much work. Auntie is really embarrassed..."

"Auntie, don't say that. It's too disgusting. Look at me, I'm not polite at all. I'm so full of rice. If you're too polite, I'm embarrassed."

Yu Zhile put all the rice in his mouth, but he was not polite at all, and the rice in the bowl was full of food.

"I didn't do much work, I just didn't cause trouble for you. I usually do it at home. When my mother cooks, I peel garlic, pick onions, wash dishes and serve rice. I want to sit and wait for dinner. My mother knows, and I will cut me."

People with high emotional intelligence always feel comfortable when speaking. He is only seventeen years old and can always consider others. It is also very good to come to tutor him.

Xia Zhenyue cleaned up the kitchen simply and came out with Xue Meier's small bowl. The bowl contained some white fish meat boiled in water. It likes to eat it the most.

"Where are you sitting?"

"I can do it, you can sit..."

"Hey, this is your meal."

"Thanks……"

Yu Zhile sat down next to Fang Ru, Xia Zhengyue was on the other side of him, and Xue Meier was sitting in a chair eating fish across the two.

Xia Zhenyue hid for an hour and finally had to eat with Yu Zhile with her mother. This feeling was strange. She lowered her head and did not dare to speak, for fear that her mother would ask her, so she sat obediently with her bowl and ate in small mouthfuls.

The supper is very ordinary, braised fish, pickled vegetables and scrambled eggs, and a portion of green vegetables. The two fish are here, so the portion is definitely enough.

This is Yu Zhile's first skill in trying the summer pillow. He first tried braised fish. The fish meat was not loose after frying, and it was quite tasty after braised. It tasted so good that it didn't taste just ordinary tilapia.

Try scrambled eggs with pickled vegetables. The eggs are fragrant and they are very delicious. The vegetables are fried very well, and the color remains green and tender, crisp and refreshing.

"It's delicious! I didn't expect your cooking skills to be so good!"

Yu Zhile was not stingy with his praise, and I wonder if he had some impression of her. In short, he felt that the meal was very suitable for his taste.

"Then, then you eat more..."

Compared with Yu Zhile, Xia Zhenyue is much more restrained. It is obviously her family, why is he more relaxed than her? What went wrong?

"You pick up food, do you want me to pick up food for you?"

Seeing that she kept eating, Yu Zhile couldn't help but say.

“No, no…”

Xia Zhengyue then stretched out her chopsticks to prepare to pick up food.

"The fish belly is delicious."

"oh……"

"Do you want soup? I feel it smells so good to the rice."

"You eat, you eat..."

...

Fang Ru looked at the two children with a smile. She was seventeen or eighteen years old, which made her unable to help but remember her encounter with Lao Xia. This was the best age.

She felt that her daughter should live the life she should have at this age, and Xiaoyue should have her own time. No matter what the relationship between the two children is now, Fang Ru lets them choose, but it cannot be denied that she really likes Zhile, the child.

"Zhile, eat more. The boy has a lot of appetite. Auntie sees you are happy, and I feel that my appetite has improved a lot."

"Auntie, I'm not polite at all. I've eaten my second bowl of rice."

When I was having a meal, I didn’t talk much. I was just an ordinary person who was honest and could not say very nice things, but just asked him to eat more over and over again.

Yu Zhile could also feel Fang Ru's intentions. He made three bowls of rice without hesitation and drank the bottle of Coke that Xia Zhenyue had just opened for him. He was so full.

"I, I'm going to wash the dishes."

Seeing that everyone had finished eating, Xia Zhenyue quickly found an opportunity to get out, got up and cleaned up the dishes and went to the kitchen.

"I'll help you."

"No, no!"

Xia Zhenyue was almost embarrassed. Such a big boy was eating at her house, eating the dishes she cooked, and talking to her mother, which made her feel panicked.

Seeing that she was unwilling, Yu Zhile had to sit down and talk to Fang Ru.

Xue Meier washed her face with her paws, thought about it, jumped into Yu Zhile's arms, and tied it down on his legs to sleep.

"Mei'er is not afraid of me."

"It is willing to get close to the person it likes."

This fluffy little cat always pokes the hearts of a man. Yu Zhile rubs and pinches it, scratches its back, and touches its head, which feels super fun.

"Zhile, what is your family doing?"

"My dad is an ordinary teacher, and my mom works in a small unit, but it's quite stable."

Yu Zhile did not boast about his family's situation. In his opinion, family's situation is his blessing, but not his capital. If he really becomes a great writer or poet one day, he will have to brag.

However, Fang Ru could still see that his family background should be very good. The reason why he said this is probably because he doesn't want to put pressure on the mother and daughter.

"Will Zhile have an intentional university? Which direction will he plan to develop in the future?"

"I plan to take the entrance exam for Zhejiang University, and normal performance should be fine. If I want to take the entrance exam for the public sector in the future, I don't have much dreams, just live a good life."

"Very good, very good."

Fang Ru sighed and said, "I often advise Xiaoyue not to put too much pressure on herself. Of course, I also know that she has many things she can't let go of..."

"Auntie, you don't have to feel guilty. She also understands that I think the things that make her happy are not to do nothing, but to see that her life is getting better after she works hard."

"It's great that Xiaoyue can have you as a good friend."

Xia Zhengyue was eavesdropping on the speech outside in the kitchen. The rag that was rubbing the bowl stopped, her nose was sour, she took a deep breath, and her heart became firm again.

The chat was almost over, and it was already past seven o'clock in the evening. Yu Zhile stood up and said goodbye.

He put down the cat in his arms and shouted to the kitchen: "Xia Zhengyue, I'm back!"

Xia Zhengyue has been washing dishes for a long time, and after washing the dishes, she washed the stove, swept the floor, wiped the refrigerator... she just hid in the kitchen and couldn't come out.

"Oh...bye."

She was stunned when she heard him say she wanted to go back, holding a rag in her hand, turned around, and waved her hand stiffly at him.

"See you tomorrow, don't forget what I asked you."

Yu Zhile said, bent down and said to Fang Ru: "Come to my aunt's house for dinner another day, please be careful of your health. Be good, pay attention to safety on Zhile's road."

Finally, I touched Xue Meier's big head, "I'll bring you dried fish next time. Meow~"

Then he left the shop with his schoolbag and packed soy sauce.

Xia Zhengyue hid in the kitchen for another two minutes until there was no sound from him outside. She ran out with a rag and walked to the door of the store to look at the side of the road.

Under the street light, only his blurry figure was seen.

After he left, the small shop at home became quiet again.

For some reason, she felt a little empty in her heart. She stood at the door with a rag in a daze for a long time...
