Candy is so big, far from the age of sensibility, so adults, including Lou Nan, didn't take his words too seriously, just as a child's naughty words, just Chen's mother was careful, and left a little more thought, Candy is not a bad-tempered baby, although he doesn't like to laugh, but he is chubby, mellow, very likable, everyone he sees likes to hug, and he hasn't seen anyone who has obviously rejected candy, what's wrong today, he and Li Wencai shouldn't have had much contact. However, Mao Mao was waiting for dinner with her mouth open, and Chen's mother didn't think deeply.

Lou Nan reprimanded Candy, and when he saw that he not only didn't listen, but repeated it again, he made a gesture to knock him on the head, "Candy, why are you so disobedient today?"

Chen Anxiu pulled his hand away from the side, "What are you doing, the candy is still small, and the eldest lady won't care about this." ”

Li Wencai has long forgotten the matter of picking vegetables from the Mao Mao bowl at the beginning, and at this time she only felt that the candy child was not very polite, but at her age, she couldn't really compare with a child like this, so she made some gestures and said, "Yes, yes, the child is still young, and I will teach it slowly in the future." ”

Lou Nan was not very willing to beat the child, so he was just making a show, giving everyone a step down, and was blocked by Chen Anxiu, so he came down, and explained the same thing in his mouth, "This kid doesn't know what's going on with Lu Dao today, and his temper is so bad." ”

Chen's mother persuaded her from the side while feeding Maomao, "Children, when you don't play a little temperament, Maomao sometimes gets up, and people's brains hurt, and the food is almost cold, so you can quickly feed the candy." ”

Candy will eat by himself, but he can't eat very much, most of the time he still relies on people to feed, he is also very used to it, when he sees his father sitting down next to him, he automatically pushes his bowl in front of his father, and at the same time opens his mouth widely.

A silent smile appeared in Lou Nan's eyes, and he reached out to scratch his youngest son's fleshy chin with Li Wencai behind his back, little villain, young age, there are still a lot of problems, but today's candy is indeed a bit abnormal.

Ruizhe refused to eat well, Li Wencai chased the whole house again, this small turmoil caused by candy was over, Chen Anxiu saw that there was nothing to do with him here, so he got up and went to the kitchen to help Chen's father stir-fry.

Now it's winter, it's cold on the way home to eat and cook, most of the lunch is done on the spot in the building materials store, eat on the spot, the store is lit with a coal stove, boil water to cook a meal, it is very convenient, but generally do not stir-fry, afraid of getting the smell of oil smoke in the store, so last year I vacated a hut in the east, bought a gas canister, and Chen's father used a few wooden boards to make a small kitchen by himself, so that it is a small kitchen.

"Dad, there are a few more dishes, I'll fry them. Chen Anxiu rolled up his sleeves as soon as he entered the kitchen.

Chen's father was busy wielding a spatula, and when he saw him come in, he rushed to him and said, "I've already started it, don't touch it, you can bring out these fried ones." By the way, did your aunt say what happened this time?"

Chen Anxiu washed the selected leeks, put them on the cage drawer to control the water, and replied, "I didn't say it, I don't know what to do." "It's not always going to apologize, when it first happened, the eldest mother did come a few times, but the third uncle has always ignored them, and the uncle's family seems to have given up now, and no longer mentions it, and the uncle himself has never been here in person from beginning to end. Dad has reconciled many times in the middle, but Uncle has never come forward, and there has been no progress in the matter. After many years of brothers making trouble like this, he knew that his father felt uncomfortable, but this matter did not work for his father and aunt, and their juniors really had no room to speak.

"Then you can go over. ”

Chen Anxiu served the dishes to the table, and when he was eating, he heard the eldest lady say that he wanted to come to the mountain to buy some ginkgo seeds today, Chen Jianming had a cold for several days, and coughed, and he took a lot of medicine but was not good, and I heard that the ginkgo seeds and red dates boiled in water had a good effect.

There are a lot of ginkgo trees on the mountain, every year after autumn, there are many people who go to the mountains to pick ginkgo seeds, some keep them for themselves to eat, some take out the ginkgo to buy, Chen's mother knows how many families there are, so she promised to take her to ask after the meal. Because it was a little cold outside, Li Wencai didn't take Ruizhe with him when he went out, leaving people in the store to play with him.

He should have gone to bed as usual after eating, but today he was greedy for a playmate, so he refused to go to bed obediently, Chen Anxiu coaxed him for a while, and he couldn't help it, so he let him play with Candy or Ruizhe in the back room.

Ruizhe doesn't come to the mountains very much, candy and Mao Mao are not familiar with him, at first he didn't pay much attention to him, he played with them, Ruizhe stuck to the door by himself and didn't move much, he was very similar to Chen Tianqi's temperament when he was a child, that is, he was in the nest, in front of the family, he could make trouble, but as long as no family members were present, he was still very well-behaved.

Chen Anxiu saw him standing there alone, it was really pitiful, so he took him to the candy and the maomao, stuffed him with a toy, and let him play with it, the children have their own unique way of communication, so even if someone in it can't speak clearly, they can gradually play together.

But the children are still young, playing and making a contradiction is also a common thing, when Li Wencai bought the ginkgo back, the three children were competing for the pony brought by the candy, Ruizhe liked it, so he snatched it from the hand of the mao, the candy was not happy at a glance, he reached out and snatched it back from Ruizhe, came back upside down, and put it back in Maomao's arms, "Brother." "That means, this is for my brother, and no one can rob it.

Ruizhe was robbed of something, so he stood there with his mouth pouted, a little unhappy, but there was nothing else, but Li Wencai was in a hurry, and he immediately stepped forward to hug and comfort him without putting down the things in his hand and said, "Ruizhe has nothing to do, let's not want this, grandma will go back and buy a bigger one than this." ”

Originally, there was nothing wrong, but when she was appeased, Rui Zhe burst into tears, stamping his feet and shouting while crying, "I want this, I want this." ”

When her grandson cried, Li Wencai couldn't care about anything, so she was only distressed, she turned her head and discussed with Mao Mao and said, "Mao Mao, you give this pony to your brother to play with, and go back and grandma will buy you a new one." She said so, but her hand was already on the horse's head, and she was about to take it.

Where is the Zhang family's big risk, Li Wencai pulled, he also cried, crying This kind of thing is especially easy to be infected among children, Mao Mao cried, the candy also cried, and sat side by side with Mao Mao opened his mouth and howled, it was difficult for the brother to be in tears, so pitiful, Lou Nan and Chen Anxiu had already gone to the small restaurant just now, and the children were watched by Chen's father alone, as soon as he turned his head, the house was full of crying, he and Chen's mother hurried to the house, just in time for Li Wencai to take the little horse out of Mao Mao's arms and put it in Ruizhe's hand。

Chen's father is a person who loves children very much, whether it is for his children or grandchildren, seeing the two children crying like this, he was irrepressibly angry, but he was a man, and it was not good to attack his sister-in-law, so he went over with a cold face and hugged Mao Mao and candy, Chen's mother didn't care about that, she couldn't hold back her words in her heart, and asked on the spot, "Sister-in-law, what are you doing?"

Li Wencai was also dumbfounded at this time, she never thought that this would be the case, she explained, "I...... I just discussed with Mao Mao and let Ruizhe play with this, and I will return it to him later. ”

Chen's mother choked back angrily, "Do you know that your Ruizhe is a treasure, is my family Mao Mao picked up on the road?" She took Mao Mao from Chen's father's arms, wiped his tears, and turned around to hug the person out of the road.

Li Wencai is really embarrassed now, this kind of thing can't even be explained. She went down the mountain with Ruizhe in her arms.

Chen's mother saw this with her own eyes, and thought of the abnormality of the candy at noon today, and had a vague guess about what happened last time, but it has been so many days, and the two small ones are not very good at expressing it, and it will probably never be clear what it is.

Of course, it is impossible for the two families to completely fall out because of this matter, but the accumulation of small contradictions again and again this time will inevitably cause estrangement in each other's hearts. I didn't move around as much before, but now it's even less.

After the winter, there has been no snow, there are basically no guests in the farmhouse, the business of the small restaurant is also very deserted, now the main busy is the Taobao store, close to Christmas and New Year's Day, all kinds of dried fruits and cured meat gift boxes are selling well, in addition to the online orders and Ming Xiaojing to contact the customer, now the daylight day gift box, every day needs more than a dozen people, the business has been better in the past two years, Chen Anxiu deliberately changed the special packaging, and also went to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau to register the trademark, the trademark is tons and tons of hand-painted, a semi-circular leaf in the middle of the squatting two large two small four chestnuts, a few strokes, very childlike。

Chen Anxiu was in charge of counting the accounts, and Liu Bo and several other men in the store helped to put the gift boxes that should be put into storage and the cars that should be loaded.

After loading a cart and transporting it away, Sun Xiao approached Chen Anxiu when he came to drink water, "Brother Chen, I think our store should also change the slogan." ”

Chen Anxiu talked to him while settling accounts with a calculator, "How do you change the slogan?"

"We also advertise that our bacon is home-raised pork, pure green, and our sausages are all chopped by hand, which sounds more bluffing. ”

Chen Anxiu glanced at him with a smile, "Do you believe it yourself?" Their household pork comes from ordinary pig farms, and the pork everyone usually eats, the meat of the sausage is stirred by the machine, but the seasoning is prepared by itself, which is guaranteed to be very clean and tastes good.

Sun Xiao swallowed his saliva, pursed his lips and said, "I don't believe it." "The black pigs raised by Brother Chen are really pure green, and no feed is added, but what is the cost, according to the price of ordinary bacon, it has long been lost. In the case of sausages, like their family, hundreds of catties a day, if they chop them by hand, they can't supply them even if they chop their arms. Those who dare to play this kind of propaganda gimmick, dare not say that ten out of ten are fake, six or seven out of ten are absolutely fake, "But many of those who buy it believe it, let's say so, they can't see it anyway." ”

"Regardless of others, let's just do our own. ”

Grandpa Jiang San heard it next to him and nodded secretly, he didn't care much now, when he didn't have anything to do, he was wandering around, looking for some old guys to drink tea and chat, otherwise he would be in charge of the store with long eyes and checks, and his life was unprecedentedly leisurely.

Sun Xiao responded, although Brother Chen is sometimes just fancy, but he is very down-to-earth with him, his salary has risen year by year in the past two years, and everyone has a big red envelope at the end of the year, he is really a good boss. Brother Chen's business is getting bigger and bigger, and even Le Yun said that let him follow Brother Chen to work hard, and the way out in the future should be good, "Brother Chen, the sleeping girl is awake." ”

When Chen Anxiu heard this, he looked up at the place where the sun was shining by the window, and saw Cheng Jie raise her head from the crook of her arm, and opened her eyes in a daze, her lazy posture was like some kind of noble cat that had been pampered. He and Cheng Jieyu only talked once at the wedding, and then there was no contact, and there was really no friendship, but after she followed Ming Xiaojing twice, she learned to run here by herself, and after she came, she occupied a table where the sun could shine to sleep, yes, she came to sleep specifically. Drive over near noon, have a lunch, lie down there and sleep after the meal, and then drive away.

"Your coffee. ”

Cheng Jie, who had just woken up, took the coffee cup and sniffed it, frowned slightly and said, "Or is it an instant coffee pod?"

"You know, that's all we have here. "Zhang Shinian has a neat set of coffee utensils, but he is not going to take them out to entertain guests, of course, the most important thing is that he really doesn't know how to mess with that.

Cheng Jie took small sips, and as the coffee disappeared, her eyes gradually cleared.

Chen Anxiu pulled out a stool and sat down opposite her, "Miss Cheng." ”

Cheng Jie corrected him in time and said, "Sister-in-law." ”

Chen Anxiu didn't want to entangle with her on this issue, "Okay, sister-in-law, don't you think it's too wasteful for you to come to sleep with me every day?" He got straight to the point, he really wanted to know what Cheng Jie wanted to do.

"My coffee shop has been deserted for days. ”

Chen Anxiu resisted the urge to roll his eyes, he was very suspicious that anyone with a clear mind would climb to the seaside cliff to drink a cup of coffee in winter, and his stomach was a little hot and was blown away by the cold sea breeze, "The location of your coffee shop is not very good." ”

"So I'm here with you. ”

"You can find many more comfortable places in the mountains than I am, such as Ming Xiaojing's book bar. "The prospective brother and sister of the inner decision, how can you count it, and the relationship is closer than him, right?

"She can't, she's not much better than me. ”

Chen Anxiu now suspects that he is communicating with an alien, for what is the separation of words one by one, he can understand, but he can't communicate when combined.

"Someone once said to me that you are a very energetic person. ”

Chen Anxiu propped his elbows on the table and looked at her, "You mean, am I a power station?"

Cheng Jieshu laughed out loud, looking very happy, "The meaning is almost the same, you are really interesting." ”

"It's the second time I've heard such a compliment from you. At this point, he already felt that there was no need to continue, they were not in the world at all, he got up, and was not going to waste more time here, "Sister-in-law, you go on, coffee is free of charge." ”

"Thank you. Cheng Jie thanked politely, and then saw that the man turned around and left without hesitation. She had heard of Chen Anxiu before, and he probably didn't know how famous he was, because he had the top high-quality lover in the world. She remembered what Jing Ran had said to her.

"Zhang Shinian has too much, has experienced too much, he doesn't need people who are too complicated, people who are too simple can't keep his footsteps, he can give a lot, and at the same time ask for more, maybe it's all a person. A person like him, even if he gets married, even if he has children, even if he is old, there will be countless women who are willing to follow him one after another, and how much courage and energy does it take to choose to be with such a person? I don't know the way, but I don't think I have any, so I choose to run away. ”

"Besides, Zhang Shinian's reputation in the shopping mall is not as beautiful and kind as his skin, can a truly kind person sit in that position? Can he kill that large career territory? Such a person, at this age, can still have some warmth?"

Maybe what Jing Ran said is not entirely right, but it should always be a little reasonable, so she is really curious about this person who can stand next to Zhang Shinian, what kind of mentality does this person have all the way down?

*

Zhang Shinian has been gone for almost two months, and he still hasn't come back, but he has returned to Hong Kong from the UK, and the distance feels a little closer.

"Mao Mao will call grandparents now, although sometimes the name is not very clear, but this also makes my parents very happy. It's just that tons are angry with him, and they call him a little fool, because he always doesn't call his brother. ”

"I don't know what's going on this year, it hasn't snowed, and my father said that when it snows, I can make frozen powder and eat it......"

"Yes. Zhang Shinian pinched the bridge of his nose, tilted his head back, leaned comfortably on the back of the chair, and was busy all day in the company, and listening to the people over there after work was the biggest pastime of the day.

"Are you tired today?" sounds like something isn't quite right.

"A little. Zhang Shinian didn't hide it from him.

"Then you pay attention to yourself, no one cares about you when you are sick over there, when will you come back?" Before Zhang Shinian could reply, he added righteously, "The main thing is that Ton Ton and Mao Mao miss you very much." ”

"As long as they want to?"

"Mom and Dad, they miss you too. ”

"What else?" Zhang Shinian's voice lowered, and there was a hint of demagogy in his originally clear voice.

"Well, Wangwang also said that you haven't been back for a long time. Chen Anxiu circled with him.

Zhang Shinian chuckled, "Do you want to say that the team leader and Peanut Candy also miss me." ”

Chen Anxiu smiled on the other end of the phone, "It seems like this, if you don't come back, the team won't know you, and when you come back, it will stop you at the door, and I won't be responsible for picking you up." ”

"I may not be able to go back until after New Year's Day. He could hear the man's thoughts, but he really couldn't get out of it right now.

Chen Anxiu is not a person who drags mud and water, and he knows that if he doesn't agree, he must have something to do, "I heard that there will be rain in Hong Kong tomorrow, and I also want snow on this side of Green Island, how good it would be to have some snow." ”

"I'll get extra clothes tomorrow. ”

This man is really boring, just forget it, why do you have to say it, Chen Anxiu moved his fingers and closed the webpage of Hong Kong weather, "That's it first, I'm also very busy, I'll call you tomorrow." ”

Hanging up the phone didn't delay his work at all, Zhang Shinian looked at the mobile phone without sound, and raised the corners of his lips silently.

There are two days left before Christmas, and the festive atmosphere on the street is already very strong, Zhang Shinian thought for a while, and said a place to let the driver stop and put him down.

Donna got out of the car and looked at the building in front of her, "Sir, do you want to buy Christmas presents?" ”

"No, I'll pick it myself. ”

The author has something to say: Good morning, this time it seems that the distance is particularly long
