47. Chance encounters, New Year's holidays

47

Xiao Yan has a good memory, so she recognized it at a glance, this familiar face was the teenager who snatched her bicycle, remembering that this person was hiding in the trash can and came out with garbage on his head and body, and the funny look of disgust when he jumped out, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.

After laughing, she hurriedly covered her mouth again, and looked at the other side weakly, just in the other party's inquiring eyes.

Xiao Yan hurriedly turned her head away, picked up the book seriously, looked at it, and swept the other party with her afterglow from time to time.

Chu Tiancheng was picking out books when he was coming, although it was not his intention, but he was quite serious about picking, he first said to the staff who were following him, "This row is all for it." โ€

Then there were three or four big men who followed behind and began to move, and the whole line facing Xiao Yan was empty, and Xiao Yan's appearance was also visible under the other party's eyes.

Chu Tiancheng looked at her and found that this little girl didn't look very old, she was not short, her facial features were exquisite, her thick eyebrows and big eyes were not very white, but she was not black, her skin was delicate, and she couldn't find even a small black mole on her face. Half of the hair is not long, half of it is scattered, the other half is pulled into a ball with a leather band, and a few strands of hair are left on the forehead, and the whole person looks very lively and playful, which is much more creative than the unchanging big arguments of the girls nowadays, but this is what he has the ability to appreciate before he sees it is good, if he comes to it, he may feel that this girl runs out without combing her hair when she goes out.

At this time, Chu Tiancheng didn't associate Xiao Yan's current appearance with the little black girl he saw that day, Xiao Yan was wearing a flower cotton jacket that day, her hair was not long, and her face was not white as it is now.

Xiao Yan hasn't been working much these days, and her family has a little money, so she has to dress up her own **, in her previous life, Xiao Yan was reluctant to spend a penny on her image, and she was so beautiful to show who she was wandering outside, but now she doesn't think so, when money is earned, it is spent, and then it is earned after spending, and she dresses herself up beautifully, which girl doesn't want it.

So these days, in addition to studying hard, she also took a serious look at it, although there are very few clothes now, and she can't buy the look she wants.

Although she doesn't know how to design clothes or anything, but she can't stand her seeing more, she changed her previous clothes as much as she can, and the loose pants have been changed to be thinner, so she doesn't look fat and ill-fitting when she wears them, and the cotton jacket has also been changed, and it seems that she has a waist, and she has been thin This change shows her 'slim' figure, although she doesn't have any figure now, but fortunately, she doesn't have to wear ill-fitting clothes anymore.

Of course, she also learned from Xiao Ma to change her clothes, and she only has the one she wears now, a solid light blue padded jacket, the lower circumference is tightened, two pockets are obliquely opened on both sides, a metal zipper is used in the middle, a little sporty, and the lower body is wearing a black cotton pants with a wrap body, although there is no high-tech in later generations, and some of them look bloated, but they are already very good, a pair of small black cotton shoes under their feet, and the head is specially tightened a little smaller.

This body can barely be seen in her opinion, but now in the eyes of people feel that it is already very beautiful, now in the eighties, young girls have the pursuit of beauty, โ–กโ–ก mirrors, bell bottoms and other clothing have long been popular in the big city, and they have been wearing the clothes of twenty years ago There is no big change.

Xiao Yan covered her mouth and watched the other party 'entrenchment' buy all the books in a row, her eyes widened in surprise, Chu Tiancheng looked at her like that and smiled at her unconsciously, although the smile was very shallow and almost invisible, then she remembered something, took out the โ–กโ–ก mirror pinned to her head, put it on her ears, and left in a dashing manner.

Xiao Yan looked at the other party with black lines on his head and got into a car with the trunk full of books, and then kicked the dust away.

If there would have been countless good deeds in the previous life who filmed each other's 'trench' scene, maybe they would have put it on the Internet, and it would have become a topic of conversation after dinner.

On the way back, Xiao Yan was still thinking that the other party actually just glanced at her and left, it didn't seem to be as stingy as she thought, but even if she was stingy, it was normal, a child, that's right, for her a forty-year-old mental age, the other party was indeed just a little kid who was still in the rebellious period.

And she didn't think at all that she wasn't recognized by the other party.

In her opinion, she has not changed much, that is because her changes are subtle, but to outsiders, her changes are earth-shaking.

After Chu Tiancheng went back, Wei Ying saw his car full of books, including English, Chinese, and mathematics tutoring test papers.

He looked at Chu Tiancheng dumbfounded, "Brother Cheng, it's winter vacation, why are you buying so many books?" "Others don't know, he is in the same class as Chu Tiancheng, and he still knows, the other party is not a person who loves to learn, otherwise he wouldn't have passed a subject.

"Study well, go up every day." Chu Tiancheng said seriously with two words.

Wei Ying felt that there must be something wrong here, but his eyes rolled, and then he said, "Brother Cheng, how about you find my brother, he studies well and can help us." โ€

Chu Tiancheng thought about it, and having a knowledgeable person can indeed get twice the result with half the effort, so he nodded.

***********

In a blink of an eye, the Spring Festival has arrived, this is the fattest Spring Festival that Xiao Yan's family has ever had in these years, including Tang Ping's family, of course.

On the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Xiao Zhen went to work in the morning, there was no way to be in a hurry, he was also the master who did not want to let go when he saw the opportunity to make money, and when he came back, his whole body was black, as if he had just come out of the coal pile.

"What are you doing, how did you do this?" Zhao Guoying took the dirty clothes he took off and asked with a concerned face.

"Hey, the family is in a hurry to move back to their hometown, and there is still a truckload of coal left, and I will pull it." Xiao Zhen said indifferently, and then took out ten yuan from his pocket.

Zhao Guoying's eyes lit up, and he suppressed his excited voice and said, "I earned ten yuan on this trip?" โ€

"No, just me and Da Li and Tang Ping, so many things, and I'm in a hurry, can I give more! Otherwise, who would do it! Xiao Zhen was also faintly excited, thinking about living more and more these days, earning more and more, he also had some ideas, but these ideas had not yet taken shape, and he was embarrassed to say it, in the end, he would only work.

Zhao Guoying got up early this morning and started stewing meat, stewed fish after stewing meat, and then steamed steamed buns, one steamed or two pots, and there was no need to do it again in the first month of the year.

"Mom, why are you steaming so many steamed buns, when will our family go to eat?" Xiao Yan looked at the big white and chubby steamed buns in the pot, and she had to eat a lot of steamed buns a day and one meal.

"Also, I forgot, I gave your second aunt's family a pot in previous years, but it seems that I don't need to give it this year." Zhao Guoying sighed that since the last incident, the two families have hardly interacted with each other, and they should not be able to see each other.

Xiao Yan pursed her lips, "Just your kindness, she has been used to her for so many years." โ€

Zhao Guoying also knows that she has been a little too good at talking over the years, but she always thinks that harmony is precious, and she can't help as much as she can, but unfortunately things don't develop as she imagined, she is good to others, people take it for granted, and she should be, and finally treat her children like that, she is cold now, and she understands that some people are worthy, and some people are not worthy.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, before dawn, the children put on new clothes and turned around the house, and sleeping late at 30 nights did not discourage their enthusiasm for the New Year.

Xiao Hui and the eldest brother made a lot of noise in the yard with a smashing cannon, Xiao Yan was lying on the edge of the window and watching, although she was no longer interested in those things, but it did not prevent her from watching her brother and brother happy.

After playing for a while, Zhao Guoying called them to eat dumplings, and the two entered the house unsatisfied, although they had fallen for a long time yesterday, and they ordered the firecrackers they bought, but they still couldn't stop their enthusiasm for firecrackers, as if boys were born to like these.

It is also customary to eat dumplings on the first day of the new year, after eating dumplings, the sky is already bright, according to the habit of previous years, they want to go to the New Year, and the first place they pay New Year's greetings is the old man Xiao's house.

A family of five, dressed up and went out.

A few of the children are not in high spirits, and they may not have many good memories.

Xiaohui didn't want to leave, Xiao Gang was about to hug him, Zhao Guoying said, "Hurry down and go, don't stain your brother's clothes." โ€

The family arrived at Old Man Xiao's house, a blue brick house, there are only three, there is a side room for cooking, the house is very old, the cleaning is not much clean, Grandma Xiao's favorite thing to do is to play mahjong.

When Xiao Zhen arrived with his wife and children, he pushed a small push, which was made of wood, and when Xiao Zhen was idle, he made a broken wood wheel, and a broken wooden board was installed on it and two handrails were nailed, which was a simple small cart, usually pushing something garbage or something, but it was still very clean.

Today's above is the New Year's goods that Xiao Zhen went to buy, which was specially pushed on the first day of the Lunar New Year, and it was also specially launched today when people are visiting relatives for the New Year.

Of course, this is Xiao Yan's idea, in previous years, the New Year's goods were sent a few days ago, usually there is no one on the street, what he sent is generally not known to anyone, Xiao Zhen sent something is not good, too little is too light, but in a blink of an eye, he entered the third or second family.

This year, Xiao Zhen was also prepared a few days ago, but was stopped by Xiao Yan, Xiao Zhen has long had no hope in his parents over the years, try to ask whose parents don't want their children to be good, but his parents are different, they only think that he earns money for the family, and he wants to get married with some money he earns, and his mother doesn't agree.

After listening to Xiao Yan's thoughts, Xiao Zhen thought about it and acquiesced, his filial piety must be known, otherwise people really think it's his!

There are a lot of things on the cart, what lotus root flour, liquor, and peach crisp that is actually not a few pieces in the big box, these things look like how they are good gifts in this year, and the cart is full.

People passing by will say hello when they see it, and then say, "I bought so many things for the old man!" โ€

Xiao Zhen would smile and say, "It's nothing, it should be." โ€

When the family arrived, Xiao Da's family was already there, and as soon as they pushed the things into the house, Xiao Nan's dead fat man began to rummble around, and ran to them in a huff, muttering, "There's nothing to eat." โ€

Nonsense, I didn't buy it for you in the first place, Xiao Yan thought to herself.
