Chapter Ninety-Six

I smiled and pointed at her: "What is the tenth year of the Republic of China, the tenth year of the Republic of China has come early, don't you know the chronology of the Republic of China?" Parallel to the A.D. chronology', that is, the beginning of the year is the beginning of the year on January 1 of the new calendar year, and it is now February 8, that is, we have passed a month and seven days in the tenth year of the Republic of China.

Jade dodged while laughing: "Miss, I'm teasing you, how could I not know." Young Master Tong calls every day, and this phone call alone has been going on for more than ten days, how could I not know. ”

I heard her make fun of Shike about me, and I couldn't help but say, "Jade, Young Master Tong is getting engaged, don't make fun of us in the future." Although Miss Guan is my friend, if someone listens to your words and believes the truth, it will be a sin for me. You may follow me out of the house in the future, so be careful with your words. ”

Jade listened and said dejectedly: "I heard that Young Master Tong and Miss Tong are childhood sweethearts, and they used to play together, why didn't Master Tong let Young Master Tong marry you?" And I think Young Master Tong is very good to you, presumably he also likes you, why don't you fight for it. ”

I smiled and said: "You've heard a lot, first, it's true that Young Master Tong and I are childhood sweethearts, but we are just good friends and good buddies, and we don't have an ambiguous relationship." Second, since you have heard a lot of things, you should know that at my apprenticeship banquet on March 3 last year, Minister He asked to marry me in public for Gongzi He, although my father politely refused at that time, but who would dare to marry me with a clear eye? Besides, Uncle Tong wants to move the hospital to Nanjing, and it's too late to make friends with the He family, so how can he offend Minister He for me? Although Shike is my friend, he can't be his father's master. Besides, Uncle Tong has been very authoritarian about Shike's affairs since he was a child. ”

Jade looked at me thoughtfully, and said in a low voice, "Then you can only marry that Young Master He that day?"

The sound of firecrackers outside the window gradually weakened, and the old year passed like this, as if in just a few seconds, the replacement of the old and the new had been completed.

I looked out the window at the sparkling lights, remembered the man who was dancing gently with me at the Christmas Ball not long ago, and sighed softly: "No, there must be another way......

For a moment, Jade and I were both silent.

I don't know how long it took for me to hear me say something almost inaudible: "If that time comes, I may ......."

"What did you say?"

Emerald asked.

I smiled silently and said to her, "It's nothing, go to sleep, you have to get up early tomorrow."

After that, without waiting for her to react, she took the lead in lying down.

When Emerald blew out the candle and put down the tent, she heard me call softly:

"Emerald?"

"What do you command, Miss?"

"Happy New Year!"

In the dark, I seemed to hear her stunned for a moment, and then I realized that I was speaking to her.

In addition to eating a bowl of "Fushou Soup" during the Spring Festival in Nanjing, it is also necessary to eat "Yuanbao Eggs" on the first day of the new year. It was an exception for me not to accompany my father and mother in the hall last night under the pretext that I was not in good health, and I did not dare to miss breakfast again this morning.

My mother brought a spoon to me and whispered, "Well, drink this bowl of 'Fushou Soup' while your father is not resting, I lied when he asked yesterday and said that you drank it." If he knew that you went back to your room without even drinking the soup, and wouldn't let you go to the ancestral hall? Drink quickly. ”

I was forced to be helpless, as long as I saw this sweet soup since I was a child, I had a headache, and the water chestnuts in it were really unbearable. But my father thought new in other things, but this tradition of drinking 'Fushou soup' on Chinese New Year's Eve was surprisingly stubborn. I didn't like the taste of water chestnuts since I was a child, my grandmother fought with her when she was old, and when I was older, I hid with my father, but I always couldn't escape the fate of being poured a bowl of sweet soup.

"Ah Zhao, who do you see coming?"

As I was drinking, my sister smiled and brought in Shike, who was dressed in a maroon plaid suit, and the sweet soup I had just drunk was choked out by me again.

My mother was blocking me with her body, in case my father came in and saw me, but when my sister and Shike shouted like this, she didn't care about anything else, so she turned around and patted me on the back and asked urgently, "How is it, are you choking?" Then he said to his sister, "You kid is making a fuss." ”

Shike looked at me as a thief, and immediately said, "Auntie, you opened a 'small stove' for Ah Zhao again, you are too partial."

This was a common scene when we were young, when my mother was just like she is now, and before my father found out that I hadn't drunk the soup, she coaxed me to drink a bowl of soup to get by.

Whenever this time, Shike sneaked out of the house and came to our house, always thinking that my mother was opening a "small stove" for me to eat, and my mother would laugh and tell the kitchen to bring the young master Shike the ingots eggs and sugar water that had been prepared, and there were two "joy groups" in it.

When Shike saw this, he immediately drank sugar water happily.

Nowadays, people who are about to start a family come to our house early in the morning with a hippie smile, and they still say the same thing when they enter the door.

The mother smiled and said to her sister: "Okay, Mingzhao, you personally serve our young master Shike eggs and sugar water, remember, the joy group has to put two pieces, and our young master Shike can't eat enough."

My sister looked at me with a smile and agreed, "Okay, let's go."

Shike touched the bridge of his nose and said shamelessly: "It's better for you to be good to me, just let Ah Zhao continue to eat Xiaozao."

This guy, naΓ―ve to death, is too lazy to pay attention to him.

I pursed my lips and motioned for Jade to go and get me some water.

My father walked in at this time, and when he saw that we had different expressions, he couldn't help but wonder: "What's the matter, why did Ah Zhao blush early in the morning?" Isn't your body still well? ”

Just as he was about to answer, Shike had already preemptively said: "Ah Zhao saw that my aunt specially left me two pieces of joy ball, and she was jealous, and she was angry with me and ignored me."

I couldn't help but be dumbfounded, this guy has not only become mysterious when he came back from studying in the East, but he has also grown a lot in his ability to reverse black and white, and he has learned to fight backwards. Obviously, he annoyed me first and was angry with me, but now he is running around early in the morning and talking nonsense.

The father laughed when he heard this, "You two children still love to mess around like you were when you were young." Shike, I heard your father say that he was going to betrothed you, how is it, have you seen Miss Guan's family? I heard that their family is in the medicinal herb business, and the two of you are married, but you can help each other and advance and retreat together. The father said, pointing to the chair next to him and said, "Sit down, don't be restrained, you still treat this place as your home, you and Ah Zhao grew up together, and I also see you as my child, you are about to get married, and your grandmother will be happy to know it."

As soon as my father's words fell, my sister walked in with a tray: "Father, you better let Ake eat ingots eggs first, after eating, these two little guys still have something to talk about!" (To be continued.) )
