MTL - Why is the Bright Moon Shining?-Chapter 19

Dinner will be served soon.

Tong Jianjun didn't ask anyone to help him. He held four dishes in both hands and called them directly to the table for dinner after a while.

A long table close to a square, with one end against the wall, Xu Can sat beside Tong Mingyue, a distance where his elbows could be relaxed and touched a little.

Zhang Guangyao handed Xu Cankong a small bowl.

"Eat more vegetables, if the vegetables are not salty, wait and see if you want to add more rice."

There are only two dishes on a table, and there are only two kinds of home-cooked dishes. The other dishes are steamed scallops with garlic vermicelli, baked chicken wings with egg yolk, and shrimp **** with peony. These dishes are very troublesome. Xu Can used to think that they could only be seen in restaurants.

The dining table for four people, seven dishes, is so sumptuous. How can it be eaten.

Xu Can couldn't help but look at Tong Mingyue, Teacher Tong, how long have you been away from home...

Tong Mingyue looked at her.

She chuckled lightly: "What are you doing?" As soon as she picked up the chopsticks, she took a chicken wing and put it into her bowl, "Try this, there's nothing children don't like to eat."

Before eating out, Tong Mingyue would not help her to pick up vegetables, probably because she was afraid that she would be embarrassed to pick up vegetables casually.

Xu Can noticed that, silently eating chicken wings with his eyes lowered, his dimples raised.

Shasha's egg yolk is slightly salty and fragrant on its own, wrapping the fried chicken wings.

When you bite into it, the tender gravy oozes out.

Xu Can raised his head and said without adulteration, "I've never encountered such delicious food outside."

"Oh, it's not difficult to do, you just need to pay attention to the ingredients of the marinated chicken wings," Tong Jianjun said with a smile, "I will come to eat often in the future."

He wore a cloth cap, which he took off after eating with chopsticks, and put it gently aside.

His black hair was mixed with gray, and his clear cheeks seemed to have big eyes, so when he first met him, Xu Can thought he was a bit fierce. When he laughed, the two nasolabial lines on his cheeks immediately softened a lot.

He speaks neither fast nor slow, which is completely different from Zhang Guangyao's high and fast speaking.

Although the two old professors have completely different external appearances, and their appearance is not the kindness in the textbook, there is a kind of warmth around them. Xu Canyang smiled amiably and nodded lightly.

Haven't had time to say anything yet.

Tong Mingyue got up slightly, took the whole plate of baked chicken wings with egg yolk, and changed positions directly with the spicy bullfrog in front of Xu Can.

Xu Can: "…"

She blushed, lowered her head, and said in a low voice, "...don't put it in front of me."

Tong Mingyue: "That bullfrog is very spicy, you can't eat it."

"I can't eat spicy food," Zhang Guangyao lifted the lid of the casserole, which turned out to be porridge. She took Xu Can's bowl and said, "Then next time you come, make sauce-flavored ones, which are more delicious."

The hot porridge was placed in a bowl and placed in front of Xu Can. Xu Can whispered thanks, and Tong Mingyue handed her the spoon again: "My mother made this, and it's delicious."

When Xu Can heard this, he began to think about how to praise him. After he took two bites, he raised his eyes, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said brightly, "It's fresh and smooth, and the rice is still soft and tender, it's amazing. Yeah, those casserole porridge shops that have long queues can't compare to what Auntie does."

"This kid can really talk."

Zhang Guangyao smiled until the corners of his eyes were wrinkled, "But I'm not boasting. No one doesn't like the seafood porridge I make. Back then, just relying on this would grab my old man's stomach."

Tong Mingyue said lightly: "Because you can only do this."

Xu Can listened with a smile, and ate the small bowl of porridge in a few mouthfuls.

"Everything is more expensive," Zhang Guangyao picked up Xu Can's bowl and added two spoonfuls of porridge. "There were students who wanted to learn from me. I said that this is only taught to my daughters, not rumors."

"Alas," Zhang Guangyao looked at Tong Mingyue meaningfully, "If I knew earlier, it would be better to teach others."

Tong Mingyue pretended not to hear and ate the food calmly.

"It's okay if she doesn't learn," Tong Jianjun said indifferently, "she didn't starve herself to death outside anyway."

"It's not like that..."

Xu Can ate the porridge with small mouthfuls, his eyes were shining brightly, and he couldn't smile. As they came and went, this kind of natural warmth of a family was something she had never experienced before, and the tension that was originally quite relaxed gradually eased.

After dinner, Tong Mingyue was instructed by Zhang Guangyao to go to the study to repair the computer.

Xu Can sat on the sofa chatting with the two old professors, chatting one after another. The news is on TV.

Was asked why he was so young.

She didn't say anything about skipping grades, she just said, "Early school."

After chatting for a while, Tong Mingyue came out of the study with the car key in hand.

Standing at the entrance, under the light, Xu Can called out in the living room from a few meters away: "It's getting late." She pointed to her watch, with a slight smile on her face, "Let's go?"

"Yeah." Xu Can responded immediately and stood up.

Come to her.

Tong Mingyue suddenly remembered something, turned her head, and said to the two in the living room, "I have to go to the laboratory, maybe I won't come back, parents, go to bed earlier."

After saying that, open the door and go out first.

Of course Xu Can remembered to say hello before leaving.

She didn't know why, but her head twitched. Maybe she just got along so happily that her vigilance melted. She wanted to say goodbye to uncle and auntie, but she followed Tong Mingyue and said, "Goodbye mom and dad."

"…"

After speaking, Xu Can's whole body froze, and his face was hot: "Ah no, yes, goodbye uncle, auntie..."

Then he hurried out the door, not daring to look at other people's expressions.

Tong Mingyue standing outside the door: "..."

She raised her hand to cover her lower lip, remained silent for two seconds, and made a puff.

Xu Can lowered his eyes to find a pit where he could bury himself, otherwise he would dig one with his bare hands. A tsunami-like wind was blowing in his head. I don't understand why this can be called wrong.

"…"

Tong Mingyue stared at her little hair, she couldn't help touching it, and her voice was also smiling: "Okay, let's go."

Xu Can was stunned and followed her into the elevator.

Now, her mind is full of killing her by touching her head again, she pursed her lips, raised her eyelashes and glanced at her from the mirror in the elevator, but she was facing Shang Tong Mingyue's half-smiling gaze. She is also looking at her.

The two looked at each other through the mirror for a few seconds.

Xu Can first looked away.

When Xu Can was particularly shy, he would become silent.

After a while, I heard Tong Mingyue chuckle again.

Xu Can: "?"

The elevator door opened.

Tong Mingyue went out, Xu Can followed, and asked sullenly, "What are you laughing at?"

Tong Mingyue: "Nothing."

Xu Can: "…"

—

Sitting in the car, Xu Can fastened his seat belt and said, "I already know how Auntie's seafood porridge is made," and asked again, "It's very clear, it's not difficult to have a little trouble, can you really learn it?"

Tong Mingyue hesitated for a few seconds, then lied and said, "I just didn't go to school."

Reversing the car, he immediately changed the subject and asked, "What have you been talking about with the old lady?"

"Auntie said..." Xu Can couldn't help laughing when she thought of it, "She said, there used to be a teacher who liked to touch your ponytail, and you were not happy. One day at home, you cut your hair in front of the mirror and almost shaved yourself bald. ."

Tong Mingyue: "…"

Holding the steering wheel, she turned, looked at the road in front of the community, and explained calmly, "My mother was talking nonsense. At that time, I just felt that my hair was too long and it was a bit of a hindrance."

Xu Can asked earnestly, "Did you get in the way of fighting with the little boy?"

Tong Mingyue: "…"

She was silent for a few seconds, and regretted answering the phone.

Xu Canping stared at the road ahead, raised the corner of his mouth, and suddenly said, "Huahua..."

The tone was soft and soft, a bit like a joke.

"…"

The lights on the road reflected on her lenses through the glass, making it difficult to see the look of the eyes. Long black hair draped over his chest.

Tong Mingyue pursed her lips when she heard the words, and said nothing.

The road ahead was too smooth, so she changed to holding the steering wheel with one hand.

"Huahua." Xu Can called again, raising his dimples. The joy of knowing Tong Mingyue's nickname is no different from playing a 50 million lottery ticket in the air.

Tong Mingyue pursed her lips and couldn't help but reluctantly replied, "No big or small."

The sense of sternness is not enough, and the degree of pampering is more than enough.

"Why Huahua, because she was so cute when she was young, like a small flower?"

"no."

Xu Can snorted and waited for her to explain.

"…"

Seeing that she didn't mean to explain at all, he glanced at her and said with a smile, "Huahua?"

Tong Mingyue: "Huayue has the same meaning as Mingyue."

Xu Can nodded and fell silent with great satisfaction.

The road section is smooth, and the drive back to school is faster than when you come. The environment in front was already very familiar, so I turned another corner, entered the school, and drove straight towards the dormitory building.

Xu Can was in the mood of wanting to see you again, and suddenly said, "I'm very good at cooking."

"That's it," Tong Mingyue bent her lips, and the car stopped to unfasten her seat belt, "I wonder if I'll be lucky enough to taste it."

Obviously she said it casually, but she turned sideways to help her unbuckle her seat belt. Xu Can looked down at her slender, white fingers as she unfastened the seat belt buckle. In the few seconds when the distance was getting closer, Xu Can wanted to hug her very much.

Xu Can's heart thumped, "You have..."

The words blurted out, and it was soft like coquettish and not like a promise.

Tong Mingyue's eyes deepened, she nodded, her eyes stayed on her face for a few seconds, and then she said warmly:

"That's looking forward to it."
