Chapter 21 Kangqiao takes a photo
Unlike China, there are two major festivals at the end of the year in the UK, one is Christmas and the other is New Year's Day, which means that the new year is coming.
Hu Yuening was busy with chores, idle at home, and calculated the time to make a call to his sister Xinning.
The sisters were talking, and the topic of this chat began to be brought to the matter of marriage subconsciously by someone, and when Hu Yuening reacted, it was as if he was in front of Xinning, and he involuntarily shrank back, as if this could dilute the existence.
But the other party is her sister who hasn't spoken since she was a child, even if she shrinks to a point, she can't escape the fate of being 818.
"Sister, have you found a partner over there, our Pocky is running all over the ground and will make soy sauce, you are not in a hurry?"
No, Xinning's words knocked her out of her original form, Hu Yuening could even imagine that Xinning should be the kind of vicious gaze that floated over, Hu Yuening was like sitting on pins and needles, and even when Pocky asked her if she could eat another piece of cake, she nodded subconsciously, as if she had won the lottery jackpot, Pocky immediately didn't give her a chance to change her words, and rushed directly to the refrigerator.
Xin Ning heard Pocky's movement on the phone, "Sister, what are you doing, are you listening to me?" What's the matter, Pocky is making a fuss next to him? ”
Hu Yuening came back to her senses at this time, and secretly said that it was not good, her own old sister was much stronger than her, and she was distracted when she really talked to people. She waved her hand with a smile on her face, "Xinning, I'm listening, Pocky is eating cake, I just motioned for him to eat less." As he spoke, he didn't forget to glare at his son, thinking that you stinky boy took advantage of people's danger and dripped the same as your bastard father.
Xin Ning said "oh", just when Hu Yuening thought that this crisis was over, he heard Xin Ning say unrelentingly: "Sister, you haven't answered the question I just asked, do you have a partner now?" If you don't get married, you're going to be an aunt! ”
Hu Yuening's eyes widened, and the willow eyebrows were raised. "Huh? Xinning, don't tell me, you have it? I tell you, if you dare to get married in front of me, believe it or not, I will make a big wedding for you! ”
"Poof, what do you mean I have?" Hu Xinning asked casually, "It's a little cousin, Su Yanhui has a girlfriend for that guy, I heard that he will get married next year at the latest!" ”
"Ahh Su Yanhui has an object? He's like a ruffian, and someone will want it? "Hu Yuening is embarrassed and has Shinto.
Hu Xinning nodded, "The little cousin's family background is resting there, and he looks like a human, he wants money and money, he wants people, why no girl likes anything, I heard that our future little cousin has it in her belly!" ”
"Well, he's awesome!" After doing it for a long time, it turned out that Fengzi got married, and Hu Yuening couldn't say anything.
"Also, old lady, what were you so excited about just now? I can't have a partner, can I? Really! Xinning's head turned and pulled back to the previous topic, "Tsk, is it possible that the elder sister still thinks it is ancient, the eldest sister is not married, and the younger sister below can't cross over?" ”
Hu Yuening smiled: "Aren't I joking, what, or do you really have a partner?" ”
"Well," Hu Xinning actually squirmed in response, which made Hu Yuening stunned, and then asked, "Is there really one?" What does the other party do? Where are the people? How did you meet? Does my mother know the way? ”
"One of the ...... I interviewed before Imperial Capital People...... Oops, what is this doing, old lady? What about checking the account? ”
"Dead child, don't I care about you!"
"Less, you bother yourself, I'll thank God!" Hu Xinning scolded with a smile, "You don't know what to do, my mother says that she is ruthless, but in fact, in our family, she is the most worried about you!" ”
“…… Well, I'm not here, you can help me do more......" Hu Yuening's voice was hoarse.
"Don't worry! You're going to have to pay more attention when you're over there with Pocky, huh? Hu Xinning agreed very simply, the sisters have lived together for many years, and there is still a tacit understanding at this point, "Don't say anything about it, say it, and let's find a way to solve it together!" Do you know the way, old lady! ”
"Well, I know!"
"You always promise fast every time, but you resolutely don't carry it out!" Hu Xinning knows her sister's temperament too well, and when she said her, she responded faster than anyone else, but she didn't see her doing it! For example, her father's matter, and her ex-brother-in-law's matter, only later did she find out what Sister Lu Dao had paid! It's hateful that at the beginning, this stupid sister didn't squeak anything, and carried such a mountain silently alone, who did she think she was? Foolish?
"Sister, I sometimes think, Ou Kaisheng's scumbag is not as good as Pocky and his father!"
A bomb, or a depth charge, bleed and burned Hu Yuening all over the place. "What?"
"Sister, there is nothing to say between our sisters, Pocky and his father have given gifts during the four years you have been in the UK!"
"Huh? You mean...... Yuan Qing ...... "Hu Yuening was completely stunned.
"Sister, you don't know what to do, do you?" Hu Xinning asked suspiciously.
I'm sorry, she really doesn't know what to say, Yuanqing's guy has been here for nearly two months, and he hasn't mentioned it to her once!
"I said, sister, why don't we see if it's possible, you just make do with Pocky and his dad? Now that I think about it, you are still an authentic family of three, and none of them are outsiders who drag oil bottles! ”
Hu Xinning's words echoed in Hu Yuening's heart for a long time after the sisters finished the phone call......
"Mom, my aunt's phone hung up?" Pocky had just eaten another piece of cake, and was satisfied with Hu Yuening, who was sitting on the sofa in a daze.
Hu Yuening came back to his senses, but saw that Pocky's mouth was surrounded by a circle of cake cream, and even the collar and cuffs were a little sticky, like a little flower cat.
Suddenly, Hu Yuening became angry, "Stinky boy, you will take advantage of the loopholes, it's really a puppy falling into the dung pit!" Seize the opportunity to pit your mother! With that, he jumped over and reached out to grab Pocky, with an angry look on his face.
Pocky thought that his mother was playing with him, so he actually "giggled" and ran away, and the two of them chased after me around the table in the dining room and the sofa in the living room.
"Stinky boy, you dare to run! Come here! Hu Yuening bent over with his hands on his knees, gasping for air, his long hair scattered on his chest, swaying back and forth. There was a ringing in her pocket, and she took out the phone and looked over, it was Yuan Qing.
"Where are you?"
Hu Yuening was a little surprised, she almost forgot the phone call she was drunk on last night, and thought in a daze, wasn't he angry and didn't answer her call? Moreover, I seem to have said last night that I wouldn't call him in the future, so did you say that you wouldn't answer his phone?
"Xiao Ning'er?" Yuan Qing saw that she didn't speak for a long time, and opened her mouth with some doubts.
"Where else can I be, it's at home." She shook her head and decided not to bother with the phone. "However, in the afternoon, I will take Pocky to a two-day event at the Early Learning Centre to visit the University of Cambridge."
"Oh, when are you going home?"
...... "It's probably going to be tomorrow afternoon, what's wrong?" The sound of someone throwing mahjong came from the other end of the phone, and she was curious. Is your family playing mahjong? ”
Yuan Qing glanced at the one behind him, shook his head in a cold sweat, how could the Lu family have such a thing as mahjong. "No, I'm outside."
"Socializing? Or a class reunion? "It's just New Year's Day, and there are usually no days off in China, but the gathering of classmates and comrades-in-arms is also properly enough, but unfortunately she has graduated for too long now, and many classmates have lost contact. For a moment, she felt that she was old, both physically and psychologically, and had an epiphany in an instant.
"Class reunion on the first day of New Year's Day?" Yuan Qing smiled, and then spoke lightly. "It's nothing, you remember to come back early, I'll hang up first."
Hu Yuening is a little inexplicable, what is the purpose of this phone call? One is not to pay New Year's greetings, and the other is not greasy...... And after Yuan Qing hung up the phone, he took out the banknote from the black leather armor and handed it over.
"Sir, it's your ticket." The employee of the gas station politely handed him the things, the man with bright eyebrows nodded, and then sat in the car, which was the last gas station to go to the Imperial Capital Airport Expressway.
Speaking of Cambridge, Hu Yuening's famous sentence immediately came to mind: "Gently I go, just as I come gently...... Quietly I went, as quietly I came; I waved my sleeves and didn't take a cloud with me. ”
What is such a large section in the middle, Hu Yuening has long been unable to remember, anyway, this song "Farewell to Kangqiao" gives her the feeling of two words "melancholy"! This Chinese New Year, she really can't figure out why the early education center wants to organize this activity, not all the children who participated, many children have other family activities with their parents, Hu Yuening didn't want to participate, how could Pocky little pot friend want to come out to play, he took this as a trip to see it!
"Mom, I'm going to school here in the future!" Pocky and Hu Yuening held hands, and the two sat on a small boat on the River Cam, their eyes lingering on the scenery on both sides.
"Well, then Pocky needs to study hard!" Hu Yuening secretly thought, this is the purpose of this activity in the early education center! To stimulate the self-motivation of the little pot friends, just like the purpose of the primary and secondary schools in the imperial capital often organize activities to take students to visit Peking University, Tsinghua University and other famous domestic universities!
"Mom, did you graduate here?" Pocky asked again.
"Oh no! Mom is sorry too! "Hey, if she graduated here, she wouldn't have had anything to do with your dad! Hu Yuening secretly thought in his heart.
"Oh, what about Uncle Rong?"
"Well, probably not, right?" Hu Yuening thought for a moment and hesitated.
"Oh, what about Uncle Yuan?"
"He? Not to mention it! Hu Yuening can be sure of this, "Uncle Yuan is a soldier, he should have graduated from a military academy, and he won't be here!" ”
"Is it the kind of TV that shows you with a pistol and wears a camouflage uniform?" Pocky suddenly became interested, stopped looking at the scenery, pulled Hu Yuening's hand, and asked coquettishly.
"Well...... this" Hu Yuening had seen Yuan Qing in a military uniform, but not in camouflage uniform, and as for whether he was wearing a gun, she didn't know. However, shouldn't you be allowed to carry a gun by SWAT or something? She really doesn't understand!
"Wait until next time you ask Uncle Yuan yourself!" Hu Yuening spoke naturally. After saying it, it suddenly dawned on her how much she was looking forward to that guy's reappearance! The water of the Youyoukang River rippled in Hu Yuening's heart, and I don't know when the road was once upon a time, that guy came gently......
