Chapter 184: New Year's Greetings
On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, there is a joyful atmosphere everywhere, the streets, the sound of children playing, the night sky, brilliant fireworks, and the sound of firecrackers from time to time, the traditional Chinese New Year is full of festivity.
Li Changjian and Ouyang Xiaoxiao carried two small benches and sat on the small stone steps at the door of their homes, and the two looked at the starry night sky, and they sat quietly with each other.
Not far away, a few children on the street are chasing and playing, holding a 'falling cannon' in their hands, which is a small firecracker that will sound when thrown to the ground, suitable for children to play.
Ouyang Xiaoxiao held his chin, his gaze retracted from the sky, and fell on a few children chasing and frolicking in the distance, his face was also full of memories, "Changjian, you have played with that kind of small firecracker, it will sound if you throw it on the ground." ”
"Of course I did, I'm a child living in the countryside, do you say I probably haven't played." Li Changjian smiled knowingly, "That is called a wrestling cannon, I used to like to play when I was young, and I often used the New Year's money to buy that." ”
"Well, I've played too, hehe, but it's also very young, and I really miss my childhood days when I saw these children playing."
"No, looking at them, we know that we are getting old."
"It's not enough to get old, we should be growing, and it's not too late to get old when we're forty or fifty years old." Ouyang Xiaoxiao turned her head to look at Li Changjian, silently holding Li Changjian's hand, and the lyrics echoed in her head, 'The most romantic thing I can think of is to grow old with you'.
"What are you looking at me for?" Li Changjian saw that Ouyang Xiaoxiao had been looking at him, and said with a smile.
"I just like to look at you."
"Do you really want to go back in the evening?"
"Well, I told my parents that I would go back at night, so I can't break my promise."
"It's not that you're breaking your word. It's just a little uneasy to let you drive back to Xiazhou alone at night. ”
"What's not to worry about, although I have had a driver's license for less than two years, my driving experience is not short, and when I didn't have a driver's license, I learned to drive with my father's driver a long time ago."
"It's not that you're not skilled." Li Changjian shook his head and smiled, "Anyway, I'm a little worried." ”
"Don't worry. Anyway, it's not very far, it takes more than an hour to arrive. ”
Li Changjian heard Ouyang Xiaoxiao's words, and knew that Ouyang Xiaoxiao insisted on leaving, so he didn't say anything, although Ouyang Xiaoxiao didn't say anything, but Li Changjian could also imagine that Ouyang Xiaoxiao could come over today and must have withstood a lot of pressure from his parents, and if he really wanted to let him stay at night, I am afraid that Ouyang Xiaoxiao's family should be fried.
The two sat quietly for a while, and Ouyang Xiaoxiao turned his head to look at the room. "I'll go in and talk to your mother for a while, and I should leave at eight o'clock, lest it be too late to go back."
"It's fine." Li Changjian nodded, his mother was afraid of disturbing his two-person world, so he didn't come out with him, Ouyang Xiaoxiao could think of chatting with his mother more before going back, and he could be regarded as having a heart.
The time soon came to eight o'clock, and Ouyang Xiaoxiao was leaving. Zhang Xinlan was quite reluctant, and reluctantly stood next to Ouyang's smiling Audi TT. Holding Ouyang Xiaoxiao's hand, he kept telling the other party to drive slower when he went back, and he would come often when he was free in the future.
Li Changjian looked at his mother as if he regarded Ouyang Xiaoxiao as a future daughter-in-law, shook his head and smiled, "Mom, if you take Xiaoxiao's hand and talk like this again, don't even think about going back after another hour or two." ”
"The time to laugh and laugh is too short. I can't even bear her to go. Zhang Xinlan looked at Ouyang Xiaoxiao with a smile on her face, and finally let go of her hand, "Okay, then I won't be verbose, otherwise I will really delay the time for Xiaoxiao to go back." ”
"Auntie. No, I love talking to you too. ”
"It turns out that I didn't find out that this little girl is so good at talking." When Li Changjian heard Ouyang Xiaoxiao's words, he muttered secretly in his heart, looking at the other party's words, he couldn't stop his mother.
Zhang Xinlan said a few words to Ouyang Xiaoxiao briefly, knowing that if she continued to talk about it, it would only be delayed later and later, and she was also worried that it would be unsafe for Ouyang Xiaoxiao to drive back too late, so she was busy letting Ouyang Xiaoxiao drive on the road after speaking.
"Xiaoxiao, give me a call when you get home." Li Changjian shouted at Ouyang with a smile.
Watching Ouyang Xiaoxiao's car drive away, Li Changjian saw his mother's reluctant look, and reached out to put his hand on his mother's shoulder, "Mom, there are many opportunities to see it in the future, don't be reluctant." ”
"Then you'll have to come back with a smile on your face." Zhang Xinlan pursed her lips and glanced at her son, "Changjian, Xiaoxiao is a good girl, you have to treat others well." ”
"Mom, it's only been less than a day since we got along, and you've praised your smile to the sky, and you'll have it in the future." Li Changjian couldn't cry or laugh, "Besides, which eye of yours sees that I can't smile well." ”
"Mom means that you let you cherish Xiaoxiao, the family environment should be very good, the key people can still be so well-behaved and sensible, where can I find such a good girl now?" Zhang Xinlan and her son chattered, although she didn't ask Xiaoxiao what she was doing at home, but seeing that Xiaoxiao could drive over, she also knew that Xiaoxiao's family background would not be bad, but knowing that her son was now promising, Zhang Xinlan didn't care much about Xiaoxiao's family background, and after getting along for a short day, she really liked this well-behaved and sweet little girl.
Mothers in the world look at their sons as the best, but in Zhang Xinlan's eyes, Ouyang Xiaoxiao is definitely more than enough for her son.
chattered with her son for a while, Zhang Xinlan looked at the time, "I'll go out to hang out at the door, if you don't go out, just guard the door at home, if you want to go out, remember to guard the door, I'll bring the key." ”
After Zhang Xinlan finished speaking, he walked to the street, Li Changjian looked at his mother's back, his face couldn't help but smile, in the past few years, every Chinese New Year's Eve, his mother would only stay at home in a lost mood, and he was not willing to contact people, this year it was rare to see his mother say that she wanted to go out to visit the door, and the mood was quite relaxed and happy, Li Changjian naturally followed the mood.
Turning around and walking back to the house, Li Changjian picked up his mobile phone and looked at it, there were several New Year's text messages, and after Li Changjian replied one by one, he remembered that because of Ouyang Xiaoxiao's relationship today, he hadn't started to give people New Year's greetings this year, so he couldn't help but call some people who were closer to him one by one.
Calls to Zhou Yuanming and Jiang Mengqian, Li Changjian put at the end, Youpin Technology is currently taking the road of self-operated e-commerce, and during the New Year, there are still many people shopping online, even more than usual, so there must always be someone in the company to stick to their jobs, coupled with the promotional activities that began to be prepared years ago, as well as some new categories on the website, this year's Chinese New Year's Eve and New Year, not only can not rest for Youpin Technology, but is a busy New Year.
Zhou Yuanming and Jiang Mengqian both stayed in the company, Jiang Mengqian sacrificed the opportunity to return to his hometown for the New Year, and Zhou Yuanming, originally settled in Xiazhou, but this year's Chinese New Year's Eve, Zhou Yuanming still went to work in the company as usual.
There are Zhou Yuanming and Jiang Mengqian staying in the company, which is also the reason why Li Changjian, the shopkeeper, can spend the New Year at home with peace of mind.
first dialed Zhou Yuanming's phone, and Li Changjian waited quietly for the phone to be connected. (To be continued.) )
