119 Mid-Autumn Festival Special
This is what happened after Zheng Hengzhao and Gu Shengge were together for two years.
"Zheng Xian, quickly bring out the washed grapes! The sons will be back soon, this is a big holiday, why don't you come and help me prepare!"
In the elegant and comfortable English country house, Zheng Xian, who had just appeared in the British financial magazine again last week, folded the newspaper in his hand, sighed and stood up, and walked to the messy Zheng family's kitchen, the base of his wife's orders.
I said, "Taking the fruit plate from Shen Xiyao's hand, Zheng Xian looked helplessly at his wife who was busy with Aunt Pei in the kitchen, and was a little hesitant to wake up that she was doing a favor, "If Aunt Pei is busy, don't get involved, it's just a meal in the Mid-Autumn Festival, you are roasting lobster and making cakes, what are you doing with such a grand preparation?"
"Look, Aunt Pei, what am I talking about!" Raising his eyes and glancing sideways at Zheng Xian, who was stealing grapes with a fruit plate, Shen Xiyao slapped the man's hand away, and then turned his head sideways to Aunt Pei who was smiling, "This man is just unreliable, and he doesn't care about anything!" You see Hengxu has no heart all day long, and he didn't learn it from his father!" snatched the fruit plate back from Zheng Xian's hand and brought it to the table herself, looking at her husband with a confused face behind her, she poked his shoulder with hatred,
"You idiot, today is not an ordinary Mid-Autumn Festival! Do your own calculations, since those two children have been together, when has our family celebrated the festival like this? This is the first Mid-Autumn Festival that Shengge has spent in our family, if it is not grand, how can it be called a festival?"
With a sudden "oh", Zheng Xian understood his wife's good intentions. After the son and Shengge were together, although the relationship between the two had already been recognized by their families, they were both busy with their respective jobs, and they were able to fly to the UK to reunite with them very rarely.
In the Mid-Autumn Festival last year, Gu Shengge took over the evening party of Chinese Satellite TV to sing. Now that he is one of the top new singers in the music world, he naturally can't escape the invitation of Chinese Satellite TV. Rehearsal, rehearsal and live broadcast, Gu Shengge was busy for that party for a month. In order to stay in China to accompany him, Zheng Hengzhao naturally failed to fly back to the UK with Gu Shengge for the holiday as originally planned.
On the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Gu Shengge, who had finished the last rehearsal, called and apologized apologetically and guiltily to Zheng's mother, who had been looking forward to them going home. Although Zheng's mother on the phone was smiling and uncovering the children on the phone from beginning to end, Zheng Xian still remembers the disappointment and loneliness that couldn't be concealed in his wife's smile at that time.
A year has passed in a blink of an eye, and it is the Mid-Autumn Festival of family reunion. Every time he arrives at such a festival juncture, the expectation and apprehension on Shen Xiyao's face can't be hidden at all, seeing that Zheng Xianzhi wants to call his son, he orders him to rush back with Shengge quickly. But before he could put it into action, as if he felt Zheng's mother's expectations, the two children in City A actually took the initiative to call this year, saying that they had put away all the work of the Mid-Autumn Festival early in the morning and would go home on time to accompany their families for the Mid-Autumn Festival. I don't know if it's because of the influence of my brother, even Zheng Hengxu, who has always disliked all kinds of festivals, called to say that he would temporarily leave his baby's mixing room on the Mid-Autumn Festival and fly back to the UK to spend the holiday with the whole family.
Such a development undoubtedly made Zheng's mother excited immediately. So in the month before the Mid-Autumn Festival, as long as Zheng Xian could see Shen Xiyao, she kept planning gift lists, purchasing items, decorating the room, and even specially booked the top Australian lobster online, just waiting for the Mid-Autumn Festival to be shipped in the sky and give her precious sons a try.
And at this moment, the live lobster wielding big tongs has been properly prepared by Aunt Pei and sent to the oven properly. The matcha cake baked by Zheng's mother in the morning has also been decorated and is just waiting to be served. Pushing away the obstacle at the kitchen door, Zheng Xian's mother ran to the living room to look at her watch, and couldn't help but rub her apron and frowned.
"Is the plane late? Why haven't you come back at this point?"
Shaking his head and secretly sighing at his wife's anxiety, Zheng Xian walked over and patted her on the shoulder, and said funny and helplessly, "Okay, I'll let Ken go and have a look, maybe they are just ...... on the road."
"Mom, Dad, Aunt Pei, we're back——"
Zheng Hengxu's energetic voice came from outside the door, abruptly interrupting Zheng Xian's words. was pushed aside by his wife, whose eyes suddenly lit up, and looking at the back of his wife running out quickly, Zheng Xian pulled the corners of his mouth, and suddenly had an urge to lock the door.
"Shengge, Shengge, come here, Mom wants to kill you......" Without hesitation, she pounced on Gu Shengge, who was smiling, and Zheng's mother grabbed Gu Shengge's arm, and her phoenix eyes narrowed into a slit with a smile, "You're tired all the way, go home and rest, Mom has made you something delicious......!"
Forgotten behind as always, Zheng's mother's two sons, Zheng Hengzhao and Zheng Hengxu, glanced at each other silently, and then walked into the villa behind the two with their luggage.
"Dad, why do you have a stinky face?" took off his shoes and threw them into the shoe cabinet, Zheng Hengxu looked at Zheng Xian who was standing next to the shoe cabinet with a black face strangely, and couldn't help but ask suspiciously, "Brother has a black face, anyway, Mom has always been like this...... But what are you doing this for......? Dad, you're also eating for Shengge...... Hmm! it hurts!"
Caught off guard, he was knocked on the back of the head by Zheng Hengzhao, and Zheng Xiaodi, who has always had a big brain, realized that he seemed to have said something wrong, and turned his head and glared at his brother angrily, Zheng Xiaodi held his head with tears in his eyes and walked away from this land of right and wrong. The Zheng father and son, who looked the same, stood in place with a handsome black face and stared at each other with big eyes.
"Dad, you wore my slippers. Staring straight at Zheng Xian's expressionless face, Zheng Hengzhao's expression was also very serious, but the content was far less serious.
"I'd love to. Glancing at Zheng Hengzhao for no reason, Zheng Xian suddenly turned around with a dark face, stepped heavily on the slippers that belonged to Zheng Hengzhao, and he went upstairs to the study with a low air pressure.
"What's the matter, why are you still standing at the door?" Walking out of the kitchen amid Zheng's mother's happy laughter, Gu Shengge, who was wearing the same rabbit apron as Zheng's mother, looked at Zheng Hengzhao who was still standing at the door, and couldn't help but want to laugh a little, "Idiot, isn't this your home? Hurry up and change your shoes to come over to help, well, remember to wash your hands." ”
Returning to the kitchen with an unfinished smile, Gu Shengge put on heat-insulating gloves and took out the lobster tray in the oven. As if he had discovered the smile on the corner of his mouth, Zheng's mother, who was standing next to him and stumbling over potato salad, came over, and the gossip light in her eyes was shining,
"Son, what are you laughing at, what did that nerd do to you, boss?"
was amused by the "nerd" in Zheng's mother's mouth, Gu Shengge shook his head helplessly, and the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were full of smiles that could not be hidden. For so many years, everyone has called that person a "rare genius", and only here can Zheng's mother hear such a curious and vivid evaluation.
"Mom, the previous concert happened to be in Guangzhou, and I brought you the lotus paste mooncakes you like," smiled and took the mashed potatoes in Zheng's mother's hand, Gu Shengge chopped the lettuce, added Qiandao sauce and mixed it carefully, "I really regret not being able to come back last year." On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, I waited backstage until the end before going on stage, remembering that you were watching the show, and I didn't know if you had eaten mooncakes...... At that time, I decided that I would definitely come back this year. ”
Looking at Zheng's mother's suddenly reddened eyes, Gu Shengge was stunned for a moment, and suddenly panicked. Wiped his hand crampedly, pulled out a tissue, and leaned over, Gu Shengge leaned down and carefully wiped the moisture from the corners of Zheng's mother's eyes.
"Mom...... Don't cry...... It's all my fault, I shouldn't have said this......"
"No, I don't blame you...... Shengge, my good son......"
Suddenly, she was hugged tightly by a woman, as if she was holding a young child, full of tenderness and cherishment. Silently stretched out his hand to hug Zheng's mother, who was only on his chest, Gu Shengge raised the corners of his mouth, and the smile in his eyes was like warm sunshine sprinkled in their hair, soft and warm, with indelible warmth and warmth.
Standing quietly outside the kitchen door, Zheng Hengzhao looked through the glass, talking and laughing inside, like a mother and son, with a soft smile in his eyes.
"It's time to eat, it's time to eat! Aunt Pei, bring that bottle of chilled champagne—"
With the fragrant lobster being placed in the center of the table, Zheng's mother took the champagne handed over by Aunt Pei and officially announced the start of the meal.
"Husband, come on, you can open this bottle of champagne-" Stuffing the champagne into the hand of Zheng Xian, who raised his eyebrows, Zheng's mother sat back on the chair and smiled softly at the slightly surprised head of the family, "You are the head of the family, the heaven of our family." This bottle of wine is open for you, which is also what children mean. ”
It is rare to see such a gentle and intellectual side of his wife, and the Zheng family, who was holding champagne, took the initiative to make a meal, and the expression that was still a little tense changed subtly. The expectation that he would be ignored for a day was suddenly subverted, and Rao was as calm as Zheng Xian, and he couldn't help but be flattered. glanced at his two sons with a little pride, and then looked at his daughter-in-law with satisfaction. Zheng Xian picked up the wine in his hand and opened the bottle himself.
With a "bang", pale golden champagne mixed with fine foam sprayed out, and the rich aroma spread through the air. The sound of the cups colliding together was crisp and pleasant, and on the Zheng family's long dining table, champagne glasses were held high, and everyone's faces were filled with indescribable satisfied smiles.
"Cheers – Happy Mid-Autumn Festival!"
This year, the Zheng family's Mid-Autumn Festival is more complete than the full moon. 166 Reading Network
