MTL - An Impossible to Reject Confession-Chapter 9 shelter from the rain

"Why are you here?" Qiao Mu looked at Xu Youyou who walked out of the dojo with them.

"I came with my grandmother." Knowing that the old man was Qiao Mu's grandmother, Xu Youyou naturally changed her mouth.

Qiao Mu looked at the grandmother in surprise.

Grandma Qiao said with a smile: "This little girl got lost in the alley, I brought it out."

Qiao Mu looked at Xu Youyou in surprise, as if to say, you are so old, how can you still get lost?

"What are you laughing at, I mean it."

Qiao Mu smiled and hummed again.

"Can you be more perfunctory?" Xu Youyou was annoyed and vowed to understand the alleys of Hongluo Town in the past two days.

"You... know each other?" Grandma Qiao looked at the two.

"She is a new student from our class, her name is Xu Youyou." Qiao Mu introduced.

"Grandma, we are still at the same table." Xu Youyou also said.

Qiao Mu is introverted and rarely has friends or classmates at home, so Grandma Qiao is extraordinarily enthusiastic.

"Next time." Qiao Mu said and glanced at Xu Youyou, the hint in his eyes was very obvious.

Xu Youyou was stunned, and her eyes fell on the earnest grandmother Qiao. At this time, the old man was elegant and kind, almost making Xu Youyou forget when she was stimulated in the dojo. look like. But Grandma Qiao's mental state is definitely not good, or she will not forget that Qiao Mu has not been to the dojo for six years. Although Xu Youyou was curious, she didn't ask much.

"Thank you, grandma, but my mother is still waiting for me. Next time I go to your house, you will ask Qiaomu to call me." Xu Youyou said.

"It's settled, next time I'll ask Mumu to call you." Grandma Qiao said.

"It's settled, goodbye, grandma." After speaking, Xu Youyou waved her hand and took the initiative to turn away from another alley.

"This little girl is really handsome." Grandma Qiao looked at Xu Youyou's back and said cheerfully.

Qiao Mu hummed and left with her grandmother.

Hongluo Daochang is not far from the pottery hall, Xu Youyou walked to the main street smoothly, but she did not go to Ms. Ji's pottery hall for the first time, but went to the next stall to buy a roll I devoured most of the cake before going to the store.

She hasn't drank a sip of water since she woke up in the morning, she is already hungry and dizzy.

"Mom, where's my courier?" Xu Youyou asked when she entered the door.

"On the table inside, why are you here now? I'm going to send a notice..." Ji Leyao was about to tease her daughter when she suddenly saw that her daughter was only wearing a white dress today Sweater, his heart trembled suddenly, and he chased out of the counter excitedly, "Are you cured? Are you cold?"

"It's almost done." Xu Youyou lowered her head and fiddled with the courier.

"It's only been a few days, are you alright? I would have told you to go to school earlier." If she knew that her daughter would be cured by going to school, she would not have seen any psychiatrist, it would be in vain Delayed for half a month.

"Mom, do you have a paper cutter? I'll take apart the courier." Xu Youyou asked.

"I'll get it." Ji Leyao took the knife to her daughter, Xu Youyou cut open the package, and dismantled the courier in three or two times.

Xu Youyou was used to playing with the camera in her previous life. The camera she chose is a classic one, and you don't need to read the manual. Not skilled.

Seeing this, Ji Leyao saw the clue and asked suspiciously, "When will you play this?"

In her impression, Xu Youyou didn't seem to have played with such things much.

"Just a while ago." Xu Youyou froze and said casually.

Some time ago? Do you mean after you got divorced and returned to China at the beginning of the year? Because of the sensitivity of time, Ji Leyao was afraid to stimulate her daughter again, so she didn't ask again.

Xu Youyou heaved a sigh of relief, took the camera to adjust, and suddenly felt a little itchy: "Mom, I'm going out to take pictures, and I'll come back for dinner."

He ran out.

Xu Youyou has some talent in photography. In the last life, she participated in several photography competitions when she was idle and bored, and won several awards. It's just that she takes pictures too casually, and she takes pictures of whatever she likes, so she doesn't take photography as a profession.

In her last life, she has been mountaineering all over the world, and has photographed landscapes all over the world, but only few from China. This life happens to be living in an ancient town with very Chinese characteristics. Where would Xu Youyou let go? Holding a camera, he began to record the ancient town of Hongluo in his eyes.

 You found a small pavilion with an excellent view on a hillside, and planned to squat here to take a picture of the sunset and the fireworks in the world.

I just waited for a while, the fireworks in the world were waiting, but the afterglow of the sunset was washed away by the showers.

How can the weather change?

Although her cold symptoms were mostly cured because of Qiao Mu's relationship, they were not completely cured after all. In addition, she only wore a sweater today, so she didn't feel cold in the sun during the day, but now it's raining, and her body temperature dropped.

I can only ask Ms. Ji to come and give me an umbrella, but I have to figure out where I am now.

Although this is Ms. Ji's hometown, Ms. Ji has been away for too long, Hongluo Town has changed a lot, and Ms. Ji may not know the way.

After thinking about it, Xu Youyou took out her mobile phone, took a picture of the scenery in front of the mountain, and posted it in the class group.

YOYO: Trapped in the rain, does anyone know where this is?

This is the first time Xu Youyou has posted a message in the group. Although everyone is not familiar with her, they are all people who have received Xu Youyou red envelopes. The reply was very positive.

Bai Yi: Isn't this a pavilion on the hillside?

YOYO: Can you be more specific?

Bai Yi: How specific?

YOYO: To the extent that a person who has just come from abroad can find it.

Bai Yi: Then it needs to be specific to the house number. I have always called Xiaoshanpo, but I don’t remember the specific address. Does anyone else in the group know?

Ji Haobo: It seems to be turning left near Hongyang Road?

Huang Ming: You can also go up Liuzhou Road.

YOYO:…

Saying it means not saying it.

Many people in the group are locals in Hongluo Town. They know where the place is by looking at the photos, but they really don't know the exact address.

Shen Lili: Why don't you wait for the rain to stop, I think the rain will stop in the next twenty minutes at most.

That's all, and the rain will stop in 20 minutes. Even if you know the address, the rain will almost stop when Ms. Ji comes over.

Qiao Mu was practicing calligraphy in the study. Grandma Qiao was talking with her son in the yard. The two had been chatting for a while. Grandma Qiao disliked her son's long-windedness, and excused herself to cook for the other party to call again another day.

After a while, Grandma Qiao came in with her mobile phone and said to Qiao Mu: "Here, your uncle has something to tell you."

Qiao Mu answered the phone and waited for Grandma Qiao to leave before looking at the uncle in the video.

"Has your grandmother been sick frequently recently?" Uncle Qiao Mu asked.

"Fortunately, I only posted it once this month." Qiao Mu said.

"That's okay, you can watch her more. I need to travel frequently for work, and your aunt is accompanying your cousin to film, so you can only rely on you. But next month, your cousin will I'm going back to school, I'll ask your aunt to go there more." Uncle Qiao Mu said.

"Good."

Uncle Qiao Mu said nothing, nodded and hung up the phone, the video returned to the main interface, Qiao Mu saw that there was a lot of news in the class group, so he casually opened it and took a look.

Xu Youyou was trapped by the rain?

Arbor walked to the window and looked at the pattering rain outside. Although it rained soon, Xu Youyou was particularly afraid of the cold. When I saw her in the morning, she seemed to be wearing only a sweater. And in the autumn rain, even ordinary people will be cold, let alone her.

Thinking of this, Qiao Mu took the umbrella, said to her grandmother, pushed the door and walked out.

Hongluo Town is not big at first. The trees have grown up here since childhood, and are very familiar with alleys and paths. They took a shortcut for seven or eight minutes to reach the hillside. At this time, it was not completely dark, and from a distance he saw a figure curled up in the pavilion.

Qiaomu walked over quickly.

"Arbor?" Xu Youyou's eyes were full of surprises.

"Here." Qiao Mu silently handed over the umbrella in his hand and looked away slightly.

"You came to pick me up on purpose?" Xu Youyou asked.

"My house happens to be nearby." Qiao Mu said.

Whether she is nearby or not, she is always here to pick her up.

"Thank you." Xu Youyou stood up and took the initiative to stand under the umbrella, because the umbrella was not big and she was afraid of rain, Xu Youyou almost stood against the tree.

Qiao Mu's heart skipped a beat, and he fled away in a panic: "I brought two umbrellas."

Only then did Xu Youyou notice that Qiao Mu was holding an umbrella in her left hand, but she didn't notice it because she thought about the color and his clothes.

"Oh." Xu Youyou reached out and took the umbrella held by Qiaomu, Qiaomu breathed a sigh of relief, opened the other umbrella in his hand, and the two walked into the rain together.

"Where is your home, I'll take you back." Qiao Mu said.

"Main Street." She promised to have dinner with Ms. Ji in the evening.

It takes about twenty minutes to walk from here to Main Street. Qiao Mu glanced at the girl's pale face from the corner of her eye. It seemed that walking in this way was no different from waiting in the pavilion. In the end.

"Do you want to come to my house?" Qiao Mu asked.

Xu Youyou stopped abruptly and looked at the trees.

"Shelter from the rain."

Perhaps the girl's eyes were too bright, Qiao Mu couldn't help but explain.
