No matter how little Mengwa is, it is also a matter of Qin Zhigang's family, for them, Fang Ning and the others are just outsiders.

In winter, the sun is warm, the temperature is suitable, and the courtyard of the community is very lively, and a large group of people are chatting.

Most of these people are aunts and uncles who have nothing to do, basking in the sun under the grapevine trellises.

Fang Ning came over with the little cute baby, and the child was pinched by these unscrupulous aunts, saying that the eyes were watery and the little face was tender, and then he was still pinching the child's cock.

So, Fang Ning fled in a hurry with him in his arms, causing a lot of laughter.

Speaking of which, grandma is a nanny to take care of the child, in fact, in addition to feeding and eating, most of the time is taken by Fang Ning and Fang Wei, anyway, there is nothing to do, and it is not so lonely to have a little baby.

Yu Xiaole came to his house, looked at Fang Ning, who had become a wet nurse, in surprise, and was dumbfounded, "Where did you get this child?"

"Someone else's house, we help take care of it. Fang Ning was lying lazily on the roof of the villa, and the little cute baby was also lying on the chair, basking in the sun, very lazy, as if she couldn't lift anything.

"Oh, it's cute. Yu Xiaole pinched the child's face, it was as smooth as an egg with a peeled eggshell, white and red, which made people love it.

"What's going on with you today?"

"Nothing else, come and see you. Yu Xiaole squatted.

Fang Ning threw him a contemptuous look, he hadn't come to see him once for most of the winter vacation, and then suddenly ran to see him, who would believe it?

Yu Xiaole smiled shyly, a little embarrassed. "Isn't this here to ask for your help?"

"Tell me, what's wrong?"

"Recently, I have been shy, and I want to borrow some money to spend. ”

Fang Ning remembered that he had a small treasury, and he was not a person who liked to spend money, so why did he suddenly ask himself to borrow money? But this was his private matter, and he didn't ask much, "How much to borrow?"

"A Thousand ......"

Fang Ning, who was still lazily lying on the chair drinking tea, almost choked on the water, sat up on his back, coughed vigorously, and patted his chest, "Can you spend it by borrowing a thousand?"

"If you want to give me two thousand, I don't mind. ”

"I'll take a look. Fang Ning got up.

When he came back, Yu Xiaole was teasing Xiaomengwa with his fingers, and when he saw Fang Ning coming, he asked him, "Why don't I tease him without talking?"

"He can't hear you. Fang Ning gave him the cash, it was all stored in the cabinet by himself, and he didn't need to withdraw the money if he needed it urgently.

"I'll pay you back at the end of the year. ”

"Whatever. ”

Cheng Xi works as a teaching assistant in the taekwondo gym, wearing a white taekwondo uniform and meticulously teaching the students, and will teach every movement several times.

This taekwondo gym was opened by his father's friend, and it was originally ambitious, wanting to become bigger, and even opening a chain branch, but unfortunately the reality is too cruel, and after six or seven years of operation, there is still no improvement.

Cheng's father sent her here to practice, but he only let her keep fit, and he didn't have other ideas.

But who knew that Cheng Xi had a talent in this area since he was a child, as long as he studied hard, he could learn it, and he was more proficient in others.

This is no exception, after mastering the essentials of taekwondo, the owner of the hall asked her to be a teaching assistant, and because she was young and beautiful, she also attracted a lot of wild bees and butterflies to advertise to the outside world.

No, Cheng Xi's advantage is not so easy to take advantage of, and most of the boys with other thoughts are either used by her as a teaching demonstration, or she uses them to practice movements, beats their faces with bruises, and says that they don't refute the reason.

As the days went by, the young male trainees became much colder about this girl.

The owner of the gym is a middle-aged bald man, but he has a lot of beard on his face, and he doesn't look very good, which may be one of the reasons why the Mountain Eagle Taekwondo Gym is rarely interested.

At this time, it was the beginning of the month, and after the owner paid the salaries to the two middle-aged coaches, he called Cheng Xi over and paid the salary.

Cheng Xi counted the money carefully, the salary was not much, less than three thousand, but for a student, it was a huge amount of money, besides, she had never used money indiscriminately, and the money she had saved in four years was nearly 150,000.

Among Fang Ning's group of people, she can be regarded as a little rich woman who is worth a lot of money.

After receiving the salary, go home when you should go home, what should you do, Cheng Xi changed his clothes and was ready to go home.

When she walked to the street outside the taekwonting gym, she saw Fang Ning holding a child in her arms, looking at her with a thief's head and a thief's brain, looking a little unbearable.

Fang Ning obviously saw Cheng Xi as well, and began to wave from afar.

"Where did you kid come from?"

Fang Ning smiled. "At the next door, the adults took care of the children when they had time, so they asked us to help take care of them. ”

"Pretty cute kid, how old is he?"

"Three and a half years old, after the new year will be four years old. ”

"Oh. Cheng Xi touched his smooth little face and said, "I'm so obedient." ”

"Well, no noise, no fuss. ”

"Fang Ning, I've paid my salary, do you want to eat something?" Cheng Xi bit his lower lip.

"Okay, where to go!"

"I don't know. ”

"I remember there was a snack bar that was very good, and I don't know if it's still open. Fang Ning thought for a moment.

"Then let's go over and take a look. ”

Fang Ning took the child and Cheng Xi to the direction of No. 1 Middle School, and Shanying Taekwondo was on the edge of the river, so there was no need to cross the traffic light and take the path directly.

No. 1 Middle School is also becoming more and more prosperous, and the shops on the streets have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and now it is almost the New Year but it is not yet the New Year, and many people are thinking about earning some more money to spend at the end of the year.

They searched in the small shop opposite No. 1 Middle School, and finally found the two snack bars.

One is a crispy corn shop, the store is very small, only the clerk can accommodate fried corn, and it can't hold it for a long time, so most people are directly packed and taken away.

"This crispy corn still tastes good, I had it last time. ”

"What flavors do they have?" asked Cheng Xi.

"There's cumin, there's sweet plum, there's tomato, it's spicy, it's spicy, it's sweet, I like it. Each flavor here corresponds to a different cup with a cartoon pattern on it, which is cute. Fang Ning briefly introduced.

"What do you want to eat?" the male clerk beckoned to the two of them.

"Get me a spicy one. ”

"I eat tomatoes. ”

"Okay, are you going to eat here, or do you want to take it away?" shouted the male clerk.

"Do you see where you have a place to eat here?" Fang Ning smiled.

Cheng Xi carefully watched the male clerk cook the crispy corn, and when he made it, he first cooked the starched corn in boiling oil, then took it out, coated it with white sauce, and added other ingredients, the amount of one corn was also very sufficient.

This process took five or six minutes, and Fang Ning took Cheng Xi to the cold noodle shop next door.

"It's really a little strange that the name of this sign is called Pig Brain Case Cold Noodles?" Cheng Xi looked up at the name of the shop above his head and said strangely: "Could it be that there is a pig brain case in the cold noodles?"

"No, this pig's skull is just the name of the store. Fang Ning smiled slightly.

The boss asked how much?

Fang Ning said let's have two copies.

The cold noodles in his shop are square, different from the general round, and the handiwork is very good.

The cold noodles, the hot omelette, and the fresh shredded kelp, cucumber, and coriander leaves, accompanied by crispy peanuts and an exclusive secret soup, make it feel super good.

Fang Ning and the others took crispy corn and cold noodles to rest under the rockery next to No. 1 Middle School, and the two of them sat on the ground and put the children on the grass.

Xiao Mengwa is very spicy, at least Fang Ning gave him spicy crispy corn, he didn't shout spicy, but he ate it with relish.

Someone passed by on the side of the road, and when they saw the three of them, they all cast their gazes, a little curious.

The little cute baby has become the best help for two people to communicate intimately, holding each other's children.

Either Fang Ning involuntarily took Cheng Xi's little hand, and she didn't retract it, just glanced at him and shook her head again.

"It's almost the New Year!"

"Hmm. ”

"Are there any new plans?" Fang Ning asked.

"New plan?" Cheng Xi tilted his head and thought for a while, "It's probably to study hard and work hard to get into the top ten." ”

"Why don't you think a little further?"

"That's not realistic, it's good to have dreams, but you can't always daydream. "Fundamentally, Cheng Xi is a more rational person.

"Not necessarily. Fang Ning raised his finger and shook it, "Have you forgotten? The second year of high school is a division of arts and sciences, you can avoid some people, the top few in the grade, maybe it's really not a dream that you can only think about." ”

As soon as Fang Ning said this, Cheng Xi understood.

Now the top ten people in the grade, most of them have good grades in liberal arts, which is easy to pull up scores, like Cheng Keshu in the first grade, she is biased towards good grades in liberal arts, as well as Tang Kun, Li Tao and others are all good in liberal arts, which is also destined for their future choice direction is to have a large advantage in liberal arts, rather than immediately.

Cheng Xi is different, her grades are biased towards science, and the direction she chose in her sophomore year of high school is also a science class.

Without so many mountains overhead, she didn't have a chance to stand out.

Besides, opportunities are created by people.

With only perseverance and talent, Cheng Xi's blockbuster is just around the corner.

"In the second year of high school, you also chose science. Cheng Xi did not use a question mark tone, but directly affirmed.

"Well, my strengths are the same as yours, and I'm also in science. ”

"Do you think we'll still be in the same class?"

"I don't know. ”

"I really envy those liberal arts students, in their eyes everything is a storm, and in the eyes of science students there are only boring formulas. ”

"In fact, those liberal arts students don't envy science students? There are so many knowledge points that have to be memorized by rote, and they have to write a subjective question with an answer to half to death, and they are all envious of each other. ”

"It's cold, let's go back. Fang Ning got up, took Cheng Xi's hand, she held the child, and got up.

On the way home, the two walked hand in hand.

Walk past the plane trees that are covered with leaves.

Falling leaves.

…

New Year's Day.

It snowed heavily that day, and the snow soon covered the town.

The snow came a little suddenly, and many people were unprepared.

Fang Ning looked at the falling snow outside through the window, thinking that this year's snow came relatively early, and the weather was a little abnormal.

The home is heated, and there are very few people in the south who use heating, and they all rely on the fire to live, but I didn't expect the temperature to drop so quickly this year, and the stove alone no longer works.

So the cotton clothes, cotton pants, and down jackets all turned out of the cabinet.

The chain reaction caused by this snow was that many people were sick, influenza was raging, even Fang Ning's family was no exception, and grandma fell ill and lay in bed to rest.

Fortunately, the cold is not very serious, and after the fever period, the rest is to recuperate, after all, the illness comes like a mountain, and the illness goes like a thread.

Surprisingly, grandpa's spicy shrimp pot shop unexpectedly did a good job, and there was a kind of scene like a market.

It's all because it's too cold in winter, and it's a good season to eat pot.

Grandpa was very busy, he was busy in the store all day like a spinning top, the staff of the two branches were not busy at all, he was thinking about whether to expand the organization and recruit more people to come in to help, but this idea was stopped by Fang Ning, now is not the time, the foundation is unstable, it is easy to get rid of.

Fang Ning watched the situation in Libya and the political situation in the Middle East on TV on the sofa, which he paid more attention to in the world.

On the night of New Year's Day, the family watched TV and ate sumptuous delicacies.

It's still snowing heavily, and it's not stopping, it's raining loudly.

It looks like it's getting ready for the next night.

When he got up the next day, Fang Ning found that the snow in the entire town was knee-deep, and he couldn't see the original appearance of the street.

There are a lot of kids chasing and playing outside, playing snowballs, having snowball fights, and building snowmen.

Fang Ning saw a lot of ice cubes at the door of his house, there were almost children with long arms, these were potential safety hazards, and his grandfather was not at home, he was the only one, he was responsible for the safety of the family members, so he moved a bamboo stool from the garage and knocked out all the cold with a small hammer.

The sixth aunt's family came, their family was outside the county seat, and they were the only relatives who could enter the county, and the others were isolated from the world by the heavy snow.

The sixth aunt sent a bunch of vegetables over, she knew that the heavy snow was a little sudden, and Fang Ning's family definitely did not prepare vegetables for the winter.

Fang Ning said thank you and checked that the bag was full of spinach and cabbage, these are seasonal dishes in winter, and they are just in time.

Fang Ning invited the sixth aunt to come in and sit, but the sixth aunt said no, she still had some things to deal with.

Fang Ning asked what was the matter.

The sixth aunt sighed, sniffled, and said, "It's not your Uncle Hui's, he ran to Shenzhen after beating someone, and he didn't dare to come back for the New Year, and his life there was not satisfactory, and he didn't have much money on him, so I wanted to go over and pay him some living expenses." ”

Fang Ning also sighed, Uncle Hui's incident also happened later, but it wasn't serious, but now he was still scared and panicked.

He said to the sixth aunt, "Let's see if Uncle Hui can come back for the New Year, and I may be able to solve his affairs here." ”

Of course, he didn't answer in the affirmative, and whether this thing is successful or not depends on the final result.
