Chapter 62: New Year's Day
The Xu family hasn't spent a full holiday together for a long time, and this time is no exception. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
January 1 is the day of public holiday. Xu Canhao came back early in the morning for the holiday, but his sister went to the company to shoot CF for one of her company's online games. Xu Canhao complained: There are no lively girls at home, lonely as snow~
At home, I accompanied Xu Cheng to play X-Box online games all day. In the evening, although his sister came back, he was forced by Xu's father to attend the company's New Year's party. He complained again: Every time he has a dinner, he has to be rubbed with oil. If it's all young beauties, we'll be able to bear it, but... Forty or fifty-year-old aunts, and men come to join in the fun! The picture is specified to be extremely discordant.
"Dad, Taeyeon and Mi-young can't go home for the holidays, so my mother asked me to pick up someone..."
"Let the driver pick it up. You don't understand that other companies hold bicycle trips, camping, dinners, etc., which president and president don't often participate? Even if it's just to show your face, you can sit down. How can you push back like this every time? ”
"Mom heard from Yoona that Taeyeon seems to be sick, so I asked me to take her to the hospital..."
"Don't always be mom, mom, press her... What, sick? Anyway, you have to show up for this banquet, and then you can pick it up. ”
"Okay, can't you go back? Don't instruct a group of people to pull me into a concert when the time comes. ”
"Tsk~ you kid!"
In the end, the two sides compromised with each other through this friendly negotiation, and Xu Canhao stayed at the venue for about half an hour, and then immediately found an excuse to leave with sufficient weight.
"Come out in 10 minutes, there's something for you." Xu Canhao acted quickly, and at this time he had already driven the car out of Qinglian and was rushing to the Shangdao Cave near the Central University. "When the time comes, I'll know, hang up first, and drive. Well, by~" He rarely drives his own car now, it's too eye-catching, and the three cards at home are all touched by reporters on the Internet, and even the car has been maintained there for a long time, and which brand of engine oil used can be seen on the Internet.
It is not far from Yeouido to the upper road. There are a lot of people on the streets, which is very similar to how it is in Japan. During the holidays or holidays, the streets of many big cities become almost crowded, as most people choose to stay at home, and the day's activities are high at dusk #tide.
There are many schools in Shangdao, from primary to middle school, more than a dozen, not even the famous Central University. Another thing that is more crowded is the Buddhist temple. It is conceivable that when the students rush to take the exam every year, the incense of these temples will be vigorous, and the whole district will be filled with all kinds of incense. At this moment, because of the festival, the air here is mixed with the smell of fireworks, and Xu Canhao can feel it even if the car window is closed.
These Buddhist temples are built according to the hills (like mountains but not mountains, the absolute height is less than 25 meters), and Xu Canhao's car is along the slope around the hills, until after two forks in the road, I see a high-walled deep courtyard in front of the mansion in front of the Hanbok Li Minting standing under the eaves of the courtyard porch and looking around. "Have you waited a long time?" Xu Canhao lowered the window of the car and poked his head out before he could stop and asked.
"Nope. How are you doing today? How are your aunts and uncles doing? When Li Minting spoke, the curvature of the corners of his mouth remained unchanged, his upper body leaned slightly, and his hands were folded and rested on top of the dantian. Whether it is words or actions, it is very ancient and elegant. Coupled with that new set of hanbok, the unique pretty temperament made the starlight in Xu Canhao's eyes flicker.
"What, isn't that weird?" Li Minting saw that Xu Canhao had been staring at him, and he obviously saw appreciation in his eyes, but he still couldn't help but want to hear the other party say some words of praise in person.
"yes, it's so strange~ so beautiful that I almost didn't recognize it." Xu Canhao said with a smile as he walked back to the car and opened the trunk.
"What's that?" Li Minting, who was in a very good mood, jumped down from the two steps and came to Xu Canhao with his skirt and looked into the trunk.
"For you. This was recently sent by a new brand on the Jiang#Nan side, and I took a few more pairs. Xu Canhao took UGG's box and handed it to Li Minting, "And this." It was given to you by the handsome chef last time, and I have it for you. ”
Li Minting saw that Xu Canhao was carrying a big box and it was heavy, so he reached out to help hold it. "Seafood?" The box seal has Chinese characters written on it, and there are also Japanese films, which seem to be transoceanic packages.
"Hmm. Go back and see again, don't be scared (geoduck and arctic shrimp). Hehe~" Xu Canhao said in a playful tone, helping Li Minting put the two boxes on the steps of the courtyard.
"What is it~ The more you don't say it, the more curious it is." Li Minting pursed his lips again and curled the corners of his mouth, his eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and two small pear vortices appeared on his cheeks from time to time, grabbing Xu Canhao's arm and saying.
The cuteness of a woman's unconscious or subconscious appearance is the most difficult to resist (provided that the face, skin, teeth, etc. are not too frustrated). Xu Canhao couldn't help but slowly free his hand, wanting to get closer, pinch the pair of pear vortices like pinching Xiaoxian's face, or try the touch of the cheeks around the fleshy-looking cheekbones.
"Oh~ What are you going to do? When people ask you, you should answer. Also, don't move your hands or feet when you speak, you know? Lee Minting used unhonorific words, and there was a hint of threat in his words and expressions.
"Nae, I see, big sister." It's not good to mess around at the door of other people's homes, Xu Canhao is simply generous and refreshing, but in fact, he pretends to be old and practical and makes fun of honorifics.
"Oh~ our brother is so good." Li Minting smiled like a fox at this moment, lifted Xu Canhao's hat and rubbed his forehead hair.
In order to cooperate with her, Xu Canhao also narrowed his eyes into thin slits, and the corners of his mouth naturally curved, accepting the caress of his master like a good puppy.
"Minting, isn't your friend here yet?" From the courtyard came a female voice of some age.
Xu Canhao was inexplicably weak for a while, and he slipped into the car quickly. After sitting down, he reacted abruptly, he is not a second-year middle school student who has a young love, nor is he a married man who comes out to find wild food, why is this a whole thing~ However, he didn't change his original intention, he was still ready to leave now, while waving to the stunned Li Minting, he started the car and said to her: "Uh~ Then go first, help me take a good one." He probably felt that the relationship between the two had not yet reached the level of meeting his parents, or he was not ready, anyway, he was so distracted that he had to run away quickly.
Such a move is undoubtedly very rude in the eyes of the woman. Xu Canhao also realized it afterwards, and at the same time regretted that he didn't notice it for a while and lost his manners. However, I don't worry that the hearty and empathetic Lee Minting will be angry because of this. However, in order to deal with it, I have thought of several suitable reasons--- which may be a common problem of men--- who are easy to treat others emotionally and ignore the gap between the hearts of men and women; often love to find reasons for trouble; I don't want to go to my mother-in-law's house......
************************************************
"Oh, Vanny, where is it? ... Uncle? ... Ok, Happy New Year. Well, now go pick up Taeyeon, bye-bye~" Seo Chan-ho drove with a headset, hung up Hwang Mi-young's phone and dialed Kim Taeyeon. The ringtone of "No matter what, I still miss" rang on the phone, and it took about half a minute before it was picked up, and then there was no sound for a while. Xu Canhao is too, so both sides are waiting for the other party to speak first. I don't know whether to say this situation is weird or tacit.
"Taeyeon, who?"
"Ah~ that, my brother."
"Zhiyong?"
"Huh? yae,yae...”
After listening to their conversation for a while, Xu Canhao finally couldn't help it and said, "Is it over?" I'm almost there, tell your agent. Without further ado, he hung up the phone immediately. He's just like that sometimes he's just like that, when he's in a good mood, he can ride on his neck, and he's in a bad mood... It's best not to annoy him. He doesn't like people to be spitting and being dishonest in front of him, Taeyeon is the kind of person who is maddeningly quiet in private, a bit like Hyun's adolescent temperament, they will use silence as a weapon to defend, sometimes you can't make you hate to smack, so that they can squeak and act, even if they cry and fight back. Unfortunately, most of the situation dies in infinite silence. In the short conversation just now, Xu Chanhao remembered many things that drove him crazy before, so now he is a little angry in the face of Kim Taeyeon, who is a donkey. He even floated in his heart, 'If it weren't for my mother, Yun'er, and Xiaoxian telling me to come over... The stinky girl seems to be sick again, for the sake of her mother's entrustment, I'm afraid it's really difficult to run this trip... It's not that I don't know the way, I'm always hypocritical, I refuse to go to the house, and I look cowering when I see myself... Not at all pleasant, not refreshing. --- such thoughts.
When he came out of the direction of Lee Minting's house and went to the SBS public hall in Dengcundong, Xu Canhao spent more than 1 hour on the road, and it was almost early in the morning when he arrived. He parked his car in the parking space in the square, and when he called Kim Taeyeon again, three people came out of the lobby of the venue, and one of them was a short man with a blanket on his shoulders who seemed to be Taeyeon. Xu Canhao hung up the phone, turned on the headlights and flashed them two or three times, then pushed the car door and waved at them.
"Hello."
"Oh, hello, great work. Taeyeon said it, right? Rest assured, you will be at home for these two days. ”
"Nae, please. Be careful with yourself and take a break. When Kim Taeyeon ran the trip alone, the female agent Yuan Difan (someone made a cameo appearance) and the assistant, both of them saluted and asked Xu Chanhao to be short.
"Thank you, sister for your hard work." Kim Taeyeon saluted and said goodbye.
"Let's go." Seo Chan-ho nodded and smiled at the two of them, and told Kim Tae-yeon, who was about to huddle in a group, to get into the car. "Stuff in the back. What, do you have a cold again? He took the girl's bag, didn't touch her blanket, turned around and put it in the back seat. Looking back, I caught a glimpse of a band-aid-like tape on her ear. "Here, what's wrong with the ears?"
Kim Taeyeon just shook her head in the face of both questions, as if she was tired, and nestled in her seat.
"What's the matter, go to the hospital." Xu Canhao's tone didn't look like a discussion, and he didn't look at her anymore, and started the engine and drove out of the parking lot.
"No, I'm not sick, just take a break." Kim Taeyeon finally opened her mouth and said very firmly.
There was no word for a long time, and there was no music in the car, so the two were silent. One stared at the front of the car, not squinting. With his head against the car window, he stared at the flickering street scene, his fair face was glittered by the neon of the city night.
"Why can't you take care of yourself so much... Are you thinking all about the team..."Seo Chan-ho seemed to be muttering to himself, as if he was asking Taeyeon. Kim Tae-yeon still has no reaction to this.
When we arrived in the vicinity of Gwanak District, it was less than 7 kilometers away from home. The highway is already suburban, and there are very few cars speeding through this section of the road at this point in time. Caravans also began to appear at the bus stops along the line, and it was impossible for the police to come here so late, so these mobile presidents dared to gather to do business.
Xu Canhao's attention was no longer on the stuffy gourd at this time, as long as he approached the bus stop, he slowed down the car, and his eyes kept searching for the skewers in his memory, the ingredients, and the cheap taste in his memory. After all, he couldn't hold back, parked the car next to the bus stop line at Shetang Station, took out his hat from the co-pilot's box and put it on. "Going for a bite to eat?"
"Go ahead, I don't want to eat." Kim Taeyeon still looked like she was going to die, but she didn't lean her head against the cold car window again.
"Ah~ You're very strange today~ You're not polite at all." Are you going'? Did I provoke you? Xu Canhao's mood is now a sunny day after the rain, in addition to eating roadside stalls, he should also thank Li Minting for the photos he sent, and he was scared by something like something and took an angry and cute selfie.
"Nope. Too tired to move. Kim Taeyeon's bangs covered her light eyebrows, leaving only a side face for Seo Chan-ho, so that he couldn't see the true meaning of his words.
"Go down, just two steps. What is it to eat supper alone? Let's go~" Xu Canhao got out of the car after speaking, trotted to the opposite side, opened the co-pilot's door, and stretched out his hand to ask Ms. Jin to get out of the car.
Kim Taeyeon sighed silently, lifted her legs and got out of the car with great difficulty, bowed her head and bent her back, tightened the blanket she was draped on, and walked quickly to the caravan that had no guests for the time being.
"Yo~ Sure enough, it's still those things!" Seo Chan-ho rubbed his hands and sat in front of the pot cooking table, beside Kim Tae-yeon, rubbing his hands and sighing at these rich and tempting snacks. "Auntie, cut a plate of offal first and ask for hot sauce. There are also rice sausages, grilled two squid (dried). Do you have kimchi pancakes too, that's great! Do you want to stir-fry rice cakes? He asked Kim Taeyeon after ordering a bunch of things.
Perhaps it was the cooking in a few pots in front of her that aroused the girl's stomach power, which made her nod in response to Xu Canhao's recommendation, and took a fish cake from the boiling pot and skewered it to her mouth to blow cold.
"Ah~ Really, I haven't tasted this for a long time. Crispy bones~" Regardless of whether Xu Chanhao was hot or not, a whole bunch of fish cakes were stuffed into his mouth, and he patted the table and looked at Taeyeon in admiration.
Kim Taeyeon smiled at him reluctantly, and reached out to take two paper cups, one for Seo Chan-ho and the other for herself to eat.
"Auntie!" Xu Canhao was just about to call, and a plate of cut rice sausages was handed in front of him. "Oh, thanks. Please give another bottle of shochu. ”
“oppa。” This is the first time Taeyeon has called him today, tugging at Seo Chan-ho's coat and signaling that he still wants to drive.
"It's okay, don't you know how much I drink? Just one bottle, or half a bottle? Seo Chan-ho is the same scoundrel again, holding up his finger to discuss with Taeyeon.
"Hehe, my sister is really sensible." The aunt who handed over the shochu and the wine glass said with a smile.
"Right? Why didn't the aunt say that she was a lover? In order to increase his credibility, Xu Chanhao stretched out his arms and wrapped his arms around Kim Taeyeon's shoulders, so frightened that the strings in the girl's hand almost fell to the ground.
"Eh~ This student looks like a junior high school student, and you..." Speaking of this, the aunt tilted her head and carefully confirmed the face under the hat. Perhaps, Xu... You are Xu Canhao... xi? "Aunt is still not sure, firstly, Xu Canhao has grown a beard during this time, and secondly, she never thought that the president worth tens of billions would eat roadside stalls at this time.
Xu Canhao smiled silently, stretched out a finger and pushed the brim of the hat so that the aunt could see it clearly, and then reset the angle of the hat.
"Ah, it's really you! Hey, this is really glorious~ Wait, wait, I'll get you some pickles! It can be seen that the aunt is really happy, clapping her palms and sighing, and hurriedly rummaging through the boxes and cabinets to find the town store Baolai to entertain guests.
"What's the matter, brother's face is very popular~" Xu Canhao slammed his arm against the golden girl with a smug face, causing people to give him a blank look. Xu Canhao didn't think it was wrong, turned his head and shouted to his aunt with a smile: "amo.nim, don't bother, just eat some food." ”
"No, it's okay, it's pickled and soaked at home, and it tastes absolutely good." The aunt smiled, brought a plate of kimchi, small radish and a plate of pickled soyledons and put them in front of the two.
"Ouch~ Thank you, thank you amo.nim." Seo Chan-ho and Kim Tae-yeon hurriedly saluted and thanked them.
Looking at the two in front of her, especially Seo Chanhao, the aunt couldn't believe that the national superstar was eating in her tent, and the food was still less than 1,750 won a plate of offal. Look at their praise, and the aunt will be happy all the time. "Really, lovers?"
"Who?" Seo Chan-ho and Kim Taeyeon held their heads high.
"Ah~ No, no! Just kidding. Xu Canhao said with a smile, he didn't expect his aunt to still think about what happened just now. Sister. Perhaps, has Big Mom heard of Girls' Generation? ”
The aunt scooped the soup scoop and shook her head with a smile.
"Where's Xu Xian, Xu Xian?" Xu Canhao asked unwillingly.
"Your own sister?" The aunt stopped moving, and seemed to really know.
“bingo! Acquaintance? Xu Canhao applauded and shouted.
"Hehe, of course~ Could it be that she is in the group? Ah~" Aunt came to her senses.
"That's right! This is their captain, and she is also a very close sister. Seo Chan-ho patted Taeyeon's increasingly delicate shoulder and said.
"Hello, I'm Girls' Generation Kim Taeyeon Imidae." Kim Taeyeon smiled and saluted.
"Nae, hello." The aunt immediately returned the gift and added some chopped pig's trotters to the two of them. "Hey Yigu, I'm so happy~ I'm glad to meet you..."The aunt was busy frying kimchi cakes, and her mouth kept slurping, sighing at her luck. The two guests below looked at each other and had fun, eating soundly.
"Would you like to try it?" Seo Chan-ho saw that Taeyeon was not glancing at the soju bottle, so he asked her in a whisper.
“nae!?” Kim Taeyeon dodged the man who came over and looked at him in surprise.
"Auntie, we drink, you won't tell others, right?" Xu Canhao raised the wine bottle and smiled sweetly at his aunt.
"Of course not. Just drink alcohol, please be careful when driving. "Aunt is really nice.
"Well, that's right, after drinking, I'll definitely drive very, very carefully, and I won't drive fast." Xu Canhao patted his chest loudly and assured that his aunt would be happy. "Well, can you drink it now? Oh~ These things really have to taste better with soju~" Xu Canhao tried his best to swallow his saliva.
The aunt was also quite cooperative, saying things that agreed with Xu Canhao's point of view.
"Come?" Xu Canhao raised the empty paper cup and wine bottle, smiled so treacherously, and his brows were also curled with joy, which made Kim Taeyeon laugh out loud.
