Faced with Ling Tianxue's invitation, the hotel grandfather couldn't refuse, but he also felt a little embarrassed to participate in other people's family gatherings.

"Girl! This is a family gathering in your family, and I am an outsider, will it make you feel embarrassed? Hotel grandpa asked.

Ling Tianxue hurriedly shook her head and said, "How is it possible! Grandpa, we all hope you can come with us! Especially my father, he also said that he wants to invite you to dinner, thank you for taking care of me during this time. We thought Christmas Eve was a good day. As long as you agree, we're happy to do so. ”

"Yes, yes!" Ling Tianxue hurriedly said, "Then it's such a happy decision, let's spend Christmas Eve together tomorrow night." Just the five of us! ”

Ling Tianxue chatted with her grandfather in the hotel for a while, and then hurried home, after all, she didn't stay in the hotel tonight, so she couldn't be here for too long. Moreover, she didn't want Uncle Lin to always wait for her at night.

After returning home, Ling Tianxue took out her mobile phone, thinking about it, she was still thinking about Chu Wei. Even if you can't meet during the holidays, at least it's good to chat!

Ling Tianxue calculated the time, it was more than ten o'clock in the evening at this time, and the domestic time was seven hours longer than here in country F, that was the afternoon, maybe Chu Wei was not particularly busy at work at this time, and was drinking coffee in the lounge!

Thinking of this, Ling Tianxue simply sent a WeChat message to Chu Wei, "Hey! Chu Wei, what to do? Are you having afternoon tea? ”

After Ling Tianxue sent out the message, she started jumping around the room, she was very anxious, she wanted to wait for Chu Wei to send her a message!

Chu Wei replied quite quickly, and it was only a matter of a minute or two. It's just that Ling Tianxue waited very hard, as if these two minutes were as long as one or two centuries.

"Tianxue, I'm busy with the work at hand, and your brother asked me to go to country F with him to deal with some branch affairs. Although I may have to have meetings with your brother on Christmas and New Year's Day, I can't play with you. But, tomorrow I will bring you a Christmas present. Merry Christmas to you in advance! ”

Ling Tianxue read the message sent by Chu Wei, and immediately jumped up in the room, compared to the scorching and hot jumping just now, this time it was a happy jump.

Ling Tianxue staggered for a while before she remembered to reply to Chu Wei's message.

"You can come, it's the best gift!" Ling Tianxue replied, and then immediately added, "I'll prepare a gift for you too." ”

Ling Tianxue wanted to call the hotel grandfather immediately and ask him to help arrange the dinner for six people. However, on the one hand, considering that the hotel grandfather may have rested, he is afraid that the phone call will disturb his old man's house; On the other hand, I am also worried that Chu Wei will be busy with things, because his brother is very pitiful, and when he encounters overtime, he will push it to Chu Wei, but she has no choice.

Ling Tianxue simply asked, "Chu Wei, can you spend Christmas Eve with our family tomorrow night?" ”

Chu Wei quickly replied to Ling Tianxue, "I'm sorry, Tianxue!" Tomorrow night I must go to a meeting of the local chamber of commerce in country F for your brother. So I can't accompany you to dinner. Although I will be busy in country F this time, I will definitely take some time to come out and go out with you to have fun and have a meal with you. It's just that I can't be sure about this time yet, and I'll arrange it when I get to country F. All right? ”

"Okay, I'll wait for you!" Ling Tianxue replied.

"Tianxue, I'm going to the airport soon, and I have some things to prepare. It's not convenient to chat with you. It's almost eleven o'clock there, so rest early! Chu Wei sent a message.

"Okay, safe journey! I'll get back in touch when you arrive. Bye! After Ling Tianxue replied, she stopped bothering Chu Wei.

Ling Tianxue thought that Chu Wei was coming, and her blood was boiling in an instant, and she couldn't sleep with excitement.

"What gift should I give Chu Wei?" Ling Tianxue leaned on the head of the bed and muttered to herself.

Suddenly, Ling Tianxue was agitated and hurriedly jumped to the sofa. These days, she is only happy that her family is coming to accompany her for the holidays, and she forgets to prepare Christmas gifts for her family, and the hotel grandfather, who has always cared so much about and taken care of her, she didn't even prepare gifts.

Tomorrow is Christmas Eve, and she must prepare as soon as possible!

"It's over, it's over!" Ling Tianxue shook her head and said to herself in the mirror of the dresser: "Ling Tianxue, why are you so unreliable, you have forgotten such an important matter, go to bed right now, you can't sleep lazily tomorrow, go shopping early in the morning to buy gifts." ”

Early the next morning, Ling Tianxue got up. When she walked to the living room, she found that Ling Desheng was already sitting on the sofa in the living room reading the newspaper, while He Meishu was cooking breakfast in the kitchen, because there was no maid there, so He Meishu, the housewife, had to do these things.

Ling Tianxue slipped to the kitchen, "Mom, do you make breakfast yourself?" ”

"If I don't make breakfast myself, what will you two eat? Drink the Northwest Wind? He Meishu said sullenly, she hadn't cooked for a long time, and she was a little busy now.

"I'll help you!" Ling Tianxue said, "I can still peel onions and garlic!" ”

"Alright, don't mess with me." He Meishu said, "If you really feel sorry for your mother, after breakfast, you can clean all these plates and bowls." ”

"Okay, okay! You are in charge of the pre-meal, I am in charge of the after-meal! Ling Tianxue said, "My dad is the most comfortable, and he is only responsible for eating." ”

After Ling Tianxue finished speaking, she saw Ling Desheng standing at the door of the kitchen.

"Hey, hey!" Ling Tianxue grinned, "Dad, why are you here?" ”

"Humph! I'm not coming, waiting for you to talk about me behind your back? Ling Desheng's face darkened, "Is your father a person who eats white food?" ”

"So what can you do?" Ling Tianxue asked rhetorically, "Could it be that you can still help your mother cook?" ”

"I don't know how to cook, but your mother has made breakfast, and I can be responsible for serving the table and setting the dishes and chopsticks!" Ling Desheng said, as if the things he said were very remarkable.

Ling Tianxue was speechless for a moment, she rolled her eyes, "Dad, you're not as good as me!" I can also wash the dishes and dishes, you can serve it, I can do this too! ”

"You two go away! Don't get in the way of chattering here. He Meishu said impatiently in the kitchen, "Go to the restaurant and wait, don't make a mess." ”

"Your mother said you caused a mess!" Ling Desheng pointed at Ling Tianxue and said.

"No, my mom said you were making trouble here!" Ling Tianxue retorted.

"You two are making trouble, get me out of here, or I'll pick a pick, and I won't cook." He Meishu said loudly.

Ling Desheng and Ling Tianxue's father and daughter looked at each other, both shrugged their shoulders and left the kitchen together.

"Looks like it's time to get a maid here to help, or your mother will have to explode if she stays here for a few days!" Ling Desheng said, "Someone has to do everything in this family, and if you rely on your mother, it will definitely not work." Moreover, if you live here in the future, you will need someone to cook for you, clean your room or something. ”

"Dad, I'd better stay at Grandpa's in the hotel! I really can't hire a servant anymore. It's horrible. Ling Tianxue said, "I've had enough of it once!" ”

"That servant is just at the mercy of someone, you can't be bitten by a snake once, and you are afraid of the well rope for ten years? Do you have to do all the housework yourself in this life? Aren't you afraid of getting tired? Ling Desheng said.

Ling Tianxue thought for a moment, "Then whatever!" However, people must be selected and reliable! ”

"Dad, why don't you let the hotel grandpa help find someone! Don't let your mother be tired for these two days. And, I can trust the hotel grandpa! I should be able to rest assured that he helped find someone, otherwise I would always feel worried about living with me after all. Ling Tianxue said.

"Okay, I'll mention this to your hotel grandfather when I have dinner with him in the evening, it should be fine." Ling Desheng said.

"Okay, okay, it's time to eat, it's simpler, let's make do with it!" He Meishu came over with a plate.

Ling Tianxue and Ling Desheng saw it, and hurriedly helped go to the kitchen to bring the remaining plates and chopsticks.

He Meishu sat at the dining table and smashed her arm, "I haven't done anything for a long time, just make breakfast, I didn't expect to be so tired, my arms are sore." ”

"Mom, I'll pinch it for you!" Ling Tianxue said, and came to He Meishu's side.

"Go, go, eat first!" He Meishu drove Ling Tianxue back to her place, "There is no massage here, otherwise, it will be comfortable to press it later!" ”

"I'll go out later, I'll go out and have a look, and if there is, I'll come back and pick you up." Ling Tianxue said.

"Why are you going? Your parents came all the way to see you, are you good, do you have to run away after eating? Leave your parents at home? Really! He Meishu complained.

"Mom, I really have something very important." Ling Tianxue said.

Ling Desheng smiled and said, "If I'm not mistaken, this girl is going out to buy Christmas gifts for everyone." Isn't that right? ”

"Huh? Dad, you guessed that? Ling Tianxue frowned and pouted, "I still want to maintain a little mystery!" ”

"I'm your father, and I know everything about you." Ling Desheng said, "Go, go, just pay attention to safety." Do you want to go home for dinner at noon? Or let's eat out as a family at noon, don't let your mother work harder. ”

"Then I'll eat out, I'll go out and buy gifts for everyone, then I'll order lunch and I'll come back to pick you up. How's it going? Ling Tianxue said.

Ling Desheng nodded, "That's it!" I also want to rest again in the morning, you are out, and the house is clean. Otherwise, you and your mom are twitting, and that's called a quarrel. ”

"Otherwise, I'll go shopping with Tianxue, I won't get tired as long as I go shopping, I like a lot of things here, and I want to sweep the goods like crazy." He Meishu said with a smile.
