In the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, most restaurants ceased to operate, and at my insistence, Jianan Jiabei finally chose a chain of Western restaurants.

After sitting down, the two of you look at me, I look at you, and they still don't say a word. I sighed lightly and took the initiative to flip through the menu to find the topic.

"Let me see, what to eat? Canaan, didn't you want to eat steak last time?"

“……”

Although Jianan didn't speak, it was a child's heart after all, and after hearing the word steak, he couldn't help but nodded.

"Okay, then give Jianan a steak first, what about Jiabei, what to eat?"

"Whatever. ”

Obviously, the slightly older Jiabei is not so easy to handle, he lowered his head, so that people could not see the expression on his face clearly, and after coldly spitting out two words, he fell silent again.

You must know that it is the most difficult dish in the world, and I guess that Jiabei is not in the mood to taste the food, so I ordered some pasta and salad at random.

After ordering, the atmosphere became solemn again, the two brothers lowered their heads, and Jianan even wrote the word sad on his face, which was obviously a small and tender face, but it was wrinkled into a bun.

Whether you can be a qualified parent or not cannot be defined by examination, blood relationship is the proof between them and their children, we cannot choose our own parents, let alone interfere in the life choices of parents.

I don't know how to tell them these things, and once the emotional damage is done, it will be futile to let the big things be said. After rubbing my face, I couldn't help but fall into endless melancholy.

After thinking about it, I had to start changing the subject.

"Jiabei, did you go to the ski training camp you said last time?"

I remember the last time I said that I would ask Jiabei to bring me the school certificate, and then I transferred the remaining 1,000 yuan to him, but then I forgot about it after a lot of things, and he didn't seem to mention it again.

"Didn't go. ”

I don't know why, when I mentioned this matter, Jiabei's eyes obviously dodged, but he quickly regained his composure.

"Well, why didn't you go? Is it because I don't have enough money? Is it too late for me to transfer money to you?"

I was afraid that it was my mistake that made Jiabei miss the opportunity to go to ski camp, so I jumped up in a panic, and was about to take out my mobile phone to transfer money, but Jiabei raised his hand to stop me.

"No, that summer camp school was canceled due to safety concerns. But, sister, can I pay back your 1,000 yuan later......?

"It's okay, you don't have to pay it back, just let me give you and Jianan's pocket money, it's not enough in the future, just call me and ask for it, you know, your sister is a salaried person now." "Not much, though.

In fact, I was really weak when I said this, after all, I am also a person with Comrade Qin's credit card now, but the second aunt has to take care of two children, and the burden is indeed heavier, I want to help her, but I am afraid that Jiabei's self-esteem will be frustrated, so I forced out the momentum of a rich woman.

Probably because my acting skills have improved, Jiabei didn't doubt it too much, "Thank you, sister." ”

"It's okay, I'm your sister, I can't let you call it in vain. Also, your dad ...... today."

I tried to explain today's events, but as soon as Jiabei heard the name of the second uncle, he waved his hand to stop me.

"It's okay, I know that Jianan and I are doing well with my mom now. ”

"Well, that's good. Jianan nodded and agreed.

I didn't know how to take the topic on, so I scratched my head in embarrassment, "That's good, that's good." ”

I have to say that this meal with Jianan Jiabei is simply an unforgettable meal in my life, the surrounding environment is not quiet, it can even be said to be noisy, but when it comes to our table, the atmosphere is like the weather outside, and the ice is almost frozen.

After settling the bill, I drove Jianan Jiabei back to my residence, and the second aunt wanted me to go up and sit and have a cup of tea, but I thought about the atmosphere at the table just now and politely refused.

The second aunt didn't excuse herself too much, smiled and waved her hand, and when it was goodbye, she led Jianan Jiabei upstairs.

I watched them disappear from my sight before driving home.

As soon as I entered the house, I was angered by a burst of piercing laughter, and at this time, the second uncle and the woman named Xiaozhi were sitting in the restaurant, and the two of them didn't know what they were talking about, which caused a burst of laughter.

Looking at the relaxed atmosphere between them, I couldn't help but flash the two silent little faces of Jianan Jiabei in my mind.

Doesn't the second uncle feel a little guilty in his heart? After invisibly hurting his son, he can still talk and laugh with his new love here. What's even more terrifying is that grandma also joined them, and they were as happy as a family.

I couldn't agree with them, so I walked in silently and slammed the door hard.

The loud noise immediately attracted their attention, and the woman named Xiaozhi retracted into the arms of the second uncle.

Immediately, the second uncle reprimanded with a straight face: "Qin Siyu, what are you crazy about during the New Year." ”

"I'm like this, when my heart is not smooth, I habitually have convulsions, don't you know, second uncle?"

I didn't shy away from it, and after hanging the bag on the wall, I looked straight at him.

The second uncle wanted to open his mouth to reprimand a few more words, but he didn't think about it, and after the woman took the initiative to tug his cuffs, he chose to calm down, but he still muttered a few words in a low voice.

In order to maintain family harmony, Ms. Fang Yu coughed twice on the side, and then said: "Siyu, there seems to be a problem with my tablet, it's good to watch TV series, come and take a look." ”

"Good. ”

I reluctantly smoothed the sullen breath in my heart and nodded at Ms. Fang Yu.

"Right away. ”

Actually, I naturally knew that Ms. Fang Yu was just looking for an excuse to calm me down, and although there was nothing wrong with her tablet, I still took it in my hand and checked it decently.

"Mom, there's no problem, your TV series will be smooth with a few fewer episodes. ”

"Oh, okay. Ms. Fang Yu smiled and nodded on the surface, but in fact, she had already grabbed my hand and whispered an order in her ear.

"New Year's Day, don't make trouble for me, although I don't like the woman your second uncle and the woman he brought back, but you still have to pretend to be face, do you hear?"

"Well, got it. ”

I clasped my hands irritably, and decided to listen to Ms. Fang Yu's words and put on a moment of peace.

Ms. Fang Yu probably saw my reluctance, so she took out the tablet and watched the Mary Sue idol drama with me, although it was brainless, but it still looked quite interesting.

When chasing dramas, time always flies very quickly, and after a while, Comrade Lao Qin began to eat Chinese New Year's Eve.

Aside from some people at the dinner table, to be honest, I still like the atmosphere of the New Year, with all kinds of blessings on the TV, and in reality, there are big red envelopes given by Comrade Lao Qin and Ms. Fang Yu.

Before the meal, my grandfather, as the head of the family, made a New Year's summary, but he was very Buddhist, and after wishing everyone well, he sat down in a low-key manner.

Next, it is the home field of Comrade Lao Qin, probably because the leader is used to it, and his old man can make a long speech whenever and wherever he is, if it were not for the control of Ms. Fang Yu, it is not impossible for the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner to become a speech scene.

Grandma didn't say anything, just remembered the third uncle who was filming outside, really, if it weren't for the fuss before her old man's house, I guess the third uncle wouldn't have been so busy that he didn't even have time to go home for the New Year.

So family affection is a wonderful thing, sometimes it makes people sad, sometimes it makes people angry, sometimes it makes people disappointed, but sometimes it also makes people feel warm.

Thinking of this, Comrade Lao Qin took the initiative to take out his mobile phone and call the third uncle, and after understanding that everything was okay with him, his grandmother also let go of her hanging heart.

After the scene was finished, all that was left was to eat, and in order to avoid unconsciously venting my resentment, I had to stuff my mouth full with food.

Ms. Fang Yu looked at my bulging cheeks, patted me lightly and reminded me: "Eat less, your face has been round recently." ”

“……”

is worthy of being my own mother, and the effect of persuasion is immediate, and as soon as her old man's words landed, I seemed to be really a little unable to eat it.

"What's the plan for tomorrow?"

"What?"

I glanced at Ms. Fang Yu warily, and the idea of meeting with her parents suddenly popped up in my mind.

"I'll make an appointment with Senior Sister Liang tomorrow to go shopping. ”

As anxiety welled up in my mind, I immediately found a way back for myself. Although shopping is not a serious matter, it has never allowed myself to be idle.

"Oh, okay, I've been wanting to buy a new silk scarf lately, you can help me see one tomorrow. ”

"Okay, okay. ”

I hurriedly agreed, for fear that Ms. Fang Yu would change her mind and let me go to see my parents.

After eating, the Spring Festival Gala watched by the national audience began happily, and a traditional person like grandma naturally wanted the whole family to watch it together, I felt bored with the Spring Festival Gala, so I hid in the corner of the sofa with Ms. Fang Yu and watched the Mary Sue idol drama.

When I was looking at it happily, the phone was ticking and ticking, and when I took a look, I saw that it was Zhang Xiao, and I subconsciously wanted to hang up, but before I could do it, Ms. Fang Yu slid to the connect button first.

Reluctantly, I ended up putting my phone to my ear.

"Hey. ”

"Siyu, Happy New Year. ”

When Zhang Xiao's flat tone came through the earpiece, my heart moved inexplicably.

"Happy New Year. ”

I got up and walked to the balcony, and replied in the same bland way.

"Have you had Chinese New Year's Eve?"

"Eat!"

"Is it delicious?"

"Delicious. ”

……

The content of the back and forth dialogue is actually really boring, and it is nothing more than daily greetings. But even so, I still talked to him for more than half an hour.
