Chapter 64 Not the kind of relationship you think

Tang Jialin touched her face, and it was indeed a little hot. She approached her mother and whispered: "I just thought about washing my hands, so I stood at the door, but he said he wanted to go to the bathroom..." It was so embarrassing.

Sun Yueqin looked at her daughter with a squinted eyes: "How long have you known each other?"

"It's not long, a week."

"A week?" Sun Yueqin's voice was a little high, "You just took him home?"

“…Mom, we need it for work…”

"Stop fooling me there. You two are just talking and laughing, how come you guys are just talking and laughing, how come they have just met for a week?"

Tang Jialin patted her mother: "That's not the kind of relationship you think."

"What kind of relationship do I want?"

The sound of water coming from the bathroom was heard. Tang Jialin turned around and went to the vegetable sink to wash her hands, and said, "No matter which one, don't talk nonsense in front of others later."

Sun Yueqin ignored her daughter's words and asked her to take out the noodles that had been watered, and put them on the dining table with meat sauce and chopped shredded cucumbers.

"I'm afraid you're hungry, so just do some regular meals. Don't dislike Longlong."

Xu Long took a deep breath of the strong aroma of the meat sauce and praised it sincerely: "It tastes delicious at first glance, thank you for your hard work."

Tang Jialin asked him to sit down, and said, "Thank you for your hard work, let's take a break, what time will you go to work in the afternoon?"

Sun Yueqin glanced at the wall clock in the living room, "I will have to leave after a little while, you guys can eat."

She sat down on the sofa, looking for an opportunity to chat with Xu Long, but this yellow-haired man was probably really hungry and sat down and ate so delicious. She only asked the two questions about which country she came from and which school she studied in. Xu Long ate a big bowl of noodles.

Tang Jialin helped him pick another bowl of noodles, and Sun Yueqin couldn't help laughing: "This child is hungry, eat slowly, eat too quickly, it's not good for his stomach."

"Yeah." Xu Long poured a large spoonful of meat sauce on the noodles and agreed while stirring.

Sun Yueqin took the time to ask what his parents do at home and how many brothers and sisters there were. The more Tang Jialin heard it, the worse it became. She winked at her mother, but she thought she couldn't see it.

When Xu Long answered that there was an older sister and a younger brother, his mother asked, "Is sister married?", Tang Jialin finally couldn't help but: "Mom, this is someone else's privacy, so it's impolite to ask like this."

Seeing that Xu Long's face was indeed a little embarrassed, Sun Yueqin smiled and said, "Oh, Auntie forgot that you foreigners don't like to talk about this. You can eat, I wash my hands, and it's time to go to work."

Seeing my mother entering the bathroom and closing the door, Tang Jialin apologized in a low voice: "Sorry, my mother has no malice, just to inquire about other people's family affairs."

"It's OK. I heard from my grandma that some elders like to talk about this when they chat." Xu Long stirred the noodles with chopsticks, "But I still don't understand why I asked my sister if she is married."

Tang Jialin really felt very sorry, "I'm sorry."

"You don't need to apologize, it's not what you asked." Xu Long said seriously, "You did nothing wrong and you don't need to apologize for your mother."

Tang Jialin didn't know what else to say, so she lowered her head and ate noodles silently until her mother came out of the bathroom.

"After you finish eating, just put the dishes and chopsticks into the kitchen. Just go and do it." Sun Yueqin finished her explanation and asked again, "Will you come back for dinner tonight?"

"I won't come back." All the chats are like this now. Her father is also there at night. Tang Jialin really couldn't imagine the scene, "We will go to grandma's house after taking photos of the album later. Do you have anything to bring?"

"I don't have anything, I asked you to bring it with me last time." Sun Yueqin put on her coat, "I'll call your grandma first and say you're going to go later?"

Tang Jialin guessed that her mother wanted to tell her grandma in advance that her companion was a foreigner, so she nodded: "Okay."

"Then I'll leave first."

Xu Long stood up: "Thank you for your hospitality, the noodles are delicious."

Sun Yueqin couldn't help laughing: "This child is really good at talking. Come next time and tell my aunt in advance, "I'm going to make delicious food for you."

"Okay, goodbye aunt."

"Goodbye Longlong." Sun Yueqin opened the door and left with satisfaction.

Tang Jialin stared at Xu Long: "Didn't you say that you foreigners don't call people that?"

Xu Long sat down and picked up the chopsticks: "When you go to the countryside, you can't let the aunt feel that I'm rude."

“…”

The two of them finished their meal quickly, and Tang Jialin brought the dishes and leftovers back to the kitchen and washed them.

Xu Long also wanted to help, but she said, "Don't leave, I'm here to wash dishes and kowtow." She successfully persuaded her to leave.

After washing the dishes and taking photos of the primary school, they got off the stairs and got on the bus and drove to grandma's house.

"Every summer vacation in elementary school, I would stay at my grandma's house for a while, which is a month long and at least half a month short. Do you know? The countryside is very fun in summer, with wild flowers blooming everywhere in the fields. You can also dig wild vegetables with a group of friends and come back to feed chickens and ducks."

Tang Jialin drove the car and recalled the pastoral life she experienced in her childhood. "At night, there are stars everywhere. You can see the Milky Way when you stand in the yard, and you can see the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl. Have you heard of the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl?"

"I've heard of it, and watched TV series."

"Have you seen this kind of thing?" Tang Jialin was surprised.

"Well, when I was learning Chinese, I watched a lot of TV series and related to myths, and I was very interested."

"No wonder you speak Chinese well."

Xu Long was very happy: "Thank you."

Tang Jialin continued to talk back to her childhood: "When I was a child, I heard from adults that on the day of the Qixi Festival, it was the seventh day of the seventh lunar month. When a child hid under the melon rack, he could hear the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl talking."

“So romantic.”

"Is it romantic?" Tang Jialin laughed, "Think about it, in the summer rural evenings, under the melon rack, we don't mention the cucumber leaves piercing people, and only say mosquito bites. Isn't it scary?"

"So you haven't heard it?"

Tang Jialin shook her head: "But I really want to go over and listen, but it seems that it rains every year on the Chinese Valentine's Day, and I often get sleepy as soon as it gets dark and always fall asleep without realizing it."

“Does it rain every year?”

"Well, the Chinese solar term is really magical, such as rain, Qingming Festival, and the Chinese Valentine's Day, it will basically rain."

"Wow, maybe I can make a video introducing the Chinese solar term. Can you help me?"

"sure."

Xu Long became serious: "To be honest, my classmates and I want to set up a company to do some humanistic videos, but what we lack the most is creativity and filming the daily life of ordinary people. Although it is very good, it is difficult for me to find a subject."

Tang Jialin nodded. His video was actually quite interesting, but indeed, the subjects who have been filmed now, except for Grandma Pang and his wife, are Xu Long's classmates. The owner of the bun shop opposite the school can be said to have "killed old customers" to the end.

"So I want to invite you to join us and we will start a company together, are you willing?"
