""His house has been warm for seven or eight years, and this year I stopped the heating, and the little girl downstairs made a request.""

When I met Mr. Zhang, he asked me a little hesitantly if I would not be at home often this winter.

Sensing Mr. Zhang's hesitant demeanor, I smiled lightly: "It's not finalized yet." ”

I understood what he meant, he probably wanted to know how we're heating this year. In the past few years, I have been a little dissatisfied with the heating problem in my house, because our neighbor has been warming my house, and my heart is a little unhappy, so I am reluctant to tell him the truth and let him figure it out for himself.

We met Mr. Zhang's family in 2008, he is a geography teacher in a high school in a small town, and his daughter-in-law works in the town's family planning office. When they first met, they had a girl.

Mr. Zhang's daughter-in-law is very lively, she is always very enthusiastic when she meets her daughter, she calls me "aunt", she often gives them vegetables and fruits when we go home, and occasionally his daughter-in-law will send us some vegetables, and the neighbors get along very well.

But Mr. Zhang is different, he usually doesn't talk much, and he is indifferent when he meets him in the corridor, and he doesn't seem to like to communicate with people. Over time, we didn't take the initiative to greet him. However, his daughter-in-law was as friendly to us as ever.

Once, in the courtyard, I heard someone behind me calling "sister-in-law", and when I looked back, it was Teacher Zhang. I was a little surprised at the time, because he usually doesn't like to deal with people, so what happened this time?

Sister-in-law, can you borrow your electric car to use it? Teacher Zhang finally spoke, "We want to take our children to the scenic spots in the east of the city." ”

My husband and I looked at each other and smiled. We launched an electric car from the garage. Afterwards, we also privately teased him, "It turns out that he can also talk."

A few years have passed, and we have not seen Mr. Zhang and his daughter-in-law for a long time, and occasionally see their parents and daughter in the corridor. During this time, we noticeably felt that the heat of the heating in our homes had decreased. At first, we thought it was the heating company's problem, but it wasn't until the heater repairer told us that "there is no one downstairs to heat the house, and the heating will definitely be affected", and we suddenly realized: it turned out that Mr. Zhang's family had not been heating for many years.

They have elderly people in their family and a daughter who is in high school, but they choose to live a life without heating, which is really incomprehensible.

However, it is their freedom to heat up or not, and we have no right to interfere. For seven or eight years, this has been the status quo.

It wasn't until the introduction of the two-child policy that Mr. Zhang's family came back and brought back a little girl who went to kindergarten. That's when we understand why they left. We're glad about that, because with small children, they should start to warm up, right?

However, the truth was not what we expected. Another winter came, and I stole into their heating pipes – and there was still no heating. There is still no heating in their house, as if the nephew (uncle) is still heating.

I was actually a little dissatisfied with the warmth of Mr. Zhang's family, but I had no choice but to accept it. Seven or eight years have passed, and everything is still the same.

This year, because we decided not to live with our parents in advance, we decided to stop heating. If you go back occasionally, you can cope with it by turning on the air conditioner.

I didn't expect to go home this time and meet Mr. Zhang, and he may have noticed that we didn't warm up. Haha, I suddenly felt angry in my heart.

We used the air conditioner to keep warm for a few days at home. On Friday, it was still warm in the sun, and I was busy in the garage downstairs. Teacher Zhang's daughter-in-law and child stood at the door of the garage tightly.

I couldn't help but laugh at the way they were dressed. Probably because the temperature in the house is really a bit low.

Sister-in-law, have you been to Jinan? Teacher Zhang's daughter-in-law greeted me with a smile, "I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

Auntie, isn't there any heating in your house? The little girl saw me and asked what the adults wanted to ask but didn't ask, "Our house is also cold this year." ”

You kid ......What do you say? Teacher Zhang's daughter-in-law picked up her little daughter and smiled embarrassedly, "Sister-in-law, do you want to go back?" ”

Jingjing, Auntie's house is out of heat. "I don't want to hide it, what do I say," come and stay at home for a few days, and then go back. ”

Auntie, you also need to keep warm! The little girl stood in front of the garage with big eyes and made a request to me, "If your house is not heated, our house will be very cold." ”

Jingjing, Auntie won't be staying at home this winter. I smiled, "Auntie will be back next semester." ”

This kid ......Always talking nonsense. Teacher Zhang's daughter-in-law walked to the car seat with her daughter in her arms, "Sister-in-law, I sent my child to school." ”

Okay, we'll talk about that another day. I replied casually.

After sending them away, Mr. Zhang's family must have felt the cold, and the family discussed "cold and warm" at home, so that the children could hear it. No way, I don't live at home, and heating is not necessary. Haha, this winter, Mr. Zhang will also feel something.

Suddenly I felt a little weak and a little guilty.

Such a young child is also cold. What do you think the couple is thinking? My husband and I looked at each other and smiled.

Don't worry about others, just live your own life. My husband scolded me.

Also, we can only manage ourselves, not other people's affairs.
