Chapter 17: Uncle Meng's Family Gathering
That night, Ning Zheng's Audi was dragged away by Xiaomi. In order to prevent the next day from being difficult to explain the problem that the car did not have, he had to use the excuse that the company had something to do and could not live longer, so he had to go back to Xinxian first. And he repeatedly asked Yao Chunxia and them to continue to stay here for a few more days, and Yao Chunxia didn't want to delay his work, so they didn't want to stay.
After breakfast, Ning Zheng took Zhang Xiu and the two to leave. Before leaving, the eldest uncle walked out and wanted to say something but was stopped by him. After comforting the eldest uncle a few more words, he went away.
After walking to the entrance of the village, Qi Yuanlu, who had already driven from Xinxian County in the morning, rolled down the window of the car and respectfully shouted outside, "Brother Zheng, Happy New Year." ”
Ning Zheng laughed, opened the passenger door, and said bitterly, "Even the car was smashed and towed away, how can you make me happy." ”
Qi Yuanlu's face was slightly embarrassed, he scratched his head, and he was also a little embarrassed, and then asked tentatively, "Brother Zheng, you won't swallow this breath like this, right?"
Ning Zheng rubbed his temples and said with a smile, "Don't worry, let him flutter for a few days, I prefer the feeling of a one-hit kill." ”
"It's like pretending to be a grandson in front of Mu Wanyuan, I always like it, right? Zhang Xiu sat behind and said lightly.
The corners of Ning Zheng's mouth twitched, and he said angrily, "That's called loving my wife, don't talk nonsense if you don't know." Okay, waking up early isn't for me, I need to catch up on sleep in the car. Long way, let's go. ”
"Okay, Brother Zheng. Qi Yuanlu then stepped on the accelerator and drove the car to the road back to Xinxian.
After returning to Xinxian, Ning Zheng took advantage of the current opportunity to visit some people again, just to prepare for the lore a few days later.
……
Three days later, Ning Zheng received a call from Uncle Meng asking him to come over for dinner, he originally wanted to bring Zhang Xiu and Liu Yong, but these two people have been obsessed with StarCraft for the past two days, and they have been playing all night without resting. As soon as he saw the two of them in this state, he went out by himself, and he didn't want to trouble Qi Yuan to pick him up during the New Year, so he went to Uncle Meng's community by himself.
According to the location mentioned by Uncle Meng, Ning Zheng came to an old unit, and in front of house number 301, he knocked on the door.
Soon, Uncle Meng came out of it.
"Xiao Zheng, here, come in. Uncle Meng smiled heartily, and then beckoned Ning Zheng to enter.
Ning Zheng said with a smile as he walked inside, "Uncle Meng, Happy New Year." ”
"I have received a lot of gifts this year, and Wuliangye is 100% there. If you don't bring me a bottle, if you don't, you can go back and get it for me. Uncle Meng deliberately teased, his eyes restlessly already aimed at Ning Zheng's hands.
Ning Zheng shrugged his shoulders, shook the Wuliangye he was carrying in his right hand, and said, "Uncle, do you feel like a thief is rare for me now?" ”
Uncle Meng took the Wuliangye in Ning Zheng's hand with his hand, without any gesture of an elder, and hurriedly responded, "I am old and rare with you, I didn't hurt you in vain." ”
Ning Zheng then put another box* aside, and when he went in, he saw Tang Xin sitting on the sofa in the living room drinking tea.
"Hey, Shin Shin. Ning Zheng smiled and said hello.
"Happy New Year, Ningzheng. Tang Xin blinked his good-looking eyes and said softly.
"Have fun. Ning Zheng didn't sit down beside Tang Xin politely, took a Sydney pear and wiped it and gnawed it. In the days when his parents were not at home, he was reduced to the miserable point of having no breakfast to eat. He was too lazy to burn it himself, let alone Zhang Xiu and Liu Yong's two annoying creatures who were even lazier than him. Besides, now the two of them are so addicted to StarCraft that they've forgotten what it's all about. If he hadn't been kind enough to bring them food in the past two days, they might have starved to death. When he thought of this, he regretted it very much. He shouldn't have been playing StarCraft at home that night, so he directly brought the two evil pens into the pit, which really made him a little unbearable.
During the conversation, a middle-aged woman wearing an apron stepped out of the kitchen. Although there are wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, you can still see from her beautiful face that she was also a beauty back then.
"It's a small dispute, Lao Meng doesn't mention you much at home. When you come, don't be inhibited just like at home, and take whatever you want to eat. The woman smiled generously.
Ning Zheng's first impression of her instantly reached the top, and his smile was like a flower road; "Okay, Auntie." By the way, Auntie, just a few of us, don't cook too many dishes, it's just simple. ”
"Well, Lao Meng is with you, I'll go cook first. I'm waiting, I'll be able to eat it right away. The woman then turned and went back to the kitchen.
After Uncle Meng put away Wuliangye, he sat on the sofa and chatted with Ning Zheng and Tang Xin.
Suddenly, there was a knock at the door.
I don't know why, Ning Zheng saw that Uncle Meng's face suddenly became a little ugly, and he sat on the sofa for a few seconds before he retracted his face, squeezed out a smile and stood up to open the door.
After opening the door, a family of three walked in from the outside.
"Lao He, it's here. Uncle Meng reluctantly greeted him, the middle-aged man in front of him was his wife's younger brother. Originally, he only planned to invite Ning Zheng and Tang Xin to dinner today, don't look at the two of them have been away from the Tiangong pawnshop for a long time, but they will often contact him, so the relationship between the three of them has not faded, and it has become stronger and stronger. It's not a good year, and he wants to call for a meal. He never thought that in the morning he got a call from his wife and brother saying that he wanted to come over for dinner, and he wanted to ask them to come back in a few days, but his wife said that they could eat together if they had nothing to do, so he had to agree.
"Hmm. Lao He responded coldly, and immediately went in with his wife and son, and he didn't have any mood fluctuations after seeing that there were still people inside.
On the contrary, Lao He's son thought a little after seeing the handsome Tang Xin, and deliberately sat next to Tang Xin.
Tang Xin smiled at He He out of politeness, but then leaned slightly towards Ning Zheng's side.
He He wanted to talk to Tang Xin, but this was his uncle's house after all, and his parents were still there, so he could only sit aside and remain silent. However, from his angle, he could sneak a glimpse of Tang Xin's long legs in black stockings. Tsk, this calf is really thin, he can definitely play for two years.
Maybe with the existence of other people, Ning Zheng and Tang Xin were not as casual as before.
After more than ten minutes, Aunt He put the cooked dishes on the table one after another, and the group moved from the sofa to the chairs.
"Taste them all, how does it taste. Aunt He said enthusiastically.
After Ning Zheng took a few bites of food, he said with a smile, "Auntie, the cooking is delicious." ”
"It's delicious, Xiao Zheng eats more. Aunt He said happily.
