Chapter 39: New Year's Anecdote V

They have two meals here during the Chinese New Year, that is, breakfast at 90 o'clock, dinner at 3 or 4 o'clock in the afternoon, omitting lunch in the middle, and in the evening, if someone is hungry, they will eat some fruits, snacks, nuts and the like to cushion their stomachs, and then watch TV, play mahjong and poker.

After Ling's mother took care of her eldest sister and little sister, she went into the kitchen with her aunt to prepare dinner, and they had to eat a lot for dinner on Chinese New Year's Eve, which means that this year is not finished, used, and spent, and the days are getting richer and richer. There were frozen pork ribs and local chicken in the basin, and the cooked food that Ling Xiaoxiao and the others went out to buy in the morning was also on the side, just waiting for the meal to be cut and heated. Ling's mother chose the dishes, and the aunt killed the fish, and the two of them discussed the situation in the store while cleaning up.

"Second sister, the clothes of the little girl in our store are selling very well this year, but many people of our age will also come to look for clothes, and they all say that the materials and styles of the clothes in our store are good, and the price is much cheaper than the big shopping malls in the city. My aunt held a kitchen knife and carefully scraped the fish scales with the back of the knife.

Ling's mother happened to have just finished choosing a lock of leeks at this time, and picked up another lock from her pocket, using leeks and stuffing to make dumplings at night, and she also planned to use it to scramble an egg and make up a green vegetable for dinner.

"I've thought about what you said before, but our store is not big, and I'm afraid there will be no place to put other clothes if I go in, and the store will be too full at that time, and it won't be suitable for customers to come in and even have a place to wander."

My aunt nodded approvingly when she heard this: "That's right, but I always think that we have been selling little girls' clothes since the beginning of autumn, and the clothes worn in this spring and autumn are almost the same, and I am afraid that our clothes will not be so easy to sell in spring." ”

Ling's mother also understands this reason: "That's the same reason, then wait until fifteen years later, when I go to the capital to buy goods, let's take a look, if you want to enter the clothes worn by people of our age, you really have to take a good turn, there are too many wholesale markets over there, and I haven't finished shopping now, so I'll go around more today." ”

Aunt and Mother Ling were discussing while cooking in the kitchen, and the atmosphere was very harmonious. In the small room, Ling Xiaoxiao and the others began to tiptoe to sort out the test papers after taking care of the old lady and falling asleep, with the help of Ye Ling and Sun Miao, Ling Xiaoxiao sorted it out quickly, and put it all in the drawer, she was really afraid of this big cousin, if it was turned over again, she was afraid that she would really rush into the kitchen to get a kitchen knife......

After packing up, the three sisters got together and chatted quietly, Sun Miao pulled Ling Xiaoxiao's sleeve and asked, "Xiaoxiao, are you so nervous about studying in the third year of junior high school?" Your test papers are so thick. ”

Before Ling Xiaoxiao could speak, Ye Ling took the lead and said proudly: "Eldest sister, you don't know, my second sister has made great progress this semester, she took the second place in the class at the end of the semester, and the total score is also high, if you continue to work hard next semester, it is also possible to take the Bincheng No. 8 Middle School and Fengcheng No. 9 Middle School." ”

When Sun Miao heard Ye Ling say this, her eyes widened in surprise: "Exam Ninth Middle School? Can you take the test? Isn't No. 9 Middle School only recruiting students in Fengcheng? ”

"You don't know this, this year the Provincial Education Commission has implemented a talent plan, and students from all counties and cities in the province can be admitted to Bincheng No. 8 Middle School, Fengcheng No. 9 Middle School and Ancheng Experimental Middle School. It's just that these three schools have super high scores, and it's not easy to get in. Ye Ling said a little proudly, as if the person with good academic performance was herself.

Sun Miao looked at Ling Xiaoxiao's eyes with appreciation, and said happily: "Okay, Xiaoxiao, now that your studies are so good, then you have to work hard, strive to be admitted to the Ninth Middle School, and then you will live in my house, and the two of us will sleep in the same bed." ”

Ling Xiaoxiao looked at Sun Miao and smiled, she would work hard, but her goal was only the school of Bincheng No. 8 Middle School, but she couldn't say it now, her grades might not be able to be admitted, so it was better to say less: "Sister, I will work hard." ”

The three sisters got together to talk and laugh, time suddenly became fast, in Ye Ling's demonic laughter, the old lady woke up, looked at them and laughed and scolded: "You three hairy girls, when you get together, you know that you are fooling around." ”

In the living room, the aunt and aunt had already gotten up to help in the kitchen, and Ling Xiaoxiao could smell the aroma of stir-fried vegetables wafting from the kitchen when she sat in the small room. After an afternoon of trouble, she was really hungry.

Taking care of the old lady and getting up, the four of them went out to the living room to find that the dining table had been set up, and the cold dishes had been placed on it, Ling Xiaoxiao consciously went to the kitchen door to take a look, and found that she couldn't help, so she went back to the small room and started to get a drink from under the bed.

Ye Ling saw Ling Xiaoxiao taking out a drink, and jumped over happily: "Ah, second sister, there is actually Jianlibao, I like to drink this the most, it is better than the lychee-flavored Zhenzhen." As he spoke, he took all the drinks out of his arms.

"If you like it, drink more, if it's not enough, we'll take it out." Ling Xiaoxiao drank too many drinks in her previous life, and she was not so interested in Ye Lingbao's Jianlibao.

"Eldest sister, hasn't Shidong come back yet?" Mother Ling put the last dish on the table, and saw that everyone had already taken their seats, and then she remembered her wayward nephew.

Ling Xiaoxiao's aunt also reacted at this time and looked around the house, and found that her son, who had never been worried, was indeed not there: "This child doesn't know how to go home when he goes out, you eat first, I'll go out and find it." ”

As he spoke, he took off his apron and was about to walk to the door, Dad Ling hurriedly got up and grabbed her: "Eldest sister, you haven't been back for several years, and you don't know what the county is like now, so I'll go out and find it, there are only a few places where their young people often go to play, I'll take a look, rest assured, I will definitely be able to get him back." ”

Hearing Ling's father say this, Ling Xiaoxiao's aunt didn't say much: "That's okay, Xiao Ling, don't run around the county, just look at the places where their young people often play, if there is no one, you will come back, let's leave him alone." ”

Ling's father agreed with a smile, put on his coat and was about to go out, Ling Xiaoxiao hurriedly ran over and whispered: "Dad, my eldest brother likes to play billiards, you will definitely find him in the largest billiards hall." ”

"Okay, Dad knows, don't worry, don't you know what kind of temper your eldest brother has, I will definitely be able to arrest him back at once." Father Ling looked at his daughter's worried little face, and felt uncomfortable again, patted her shoulder and turned around and went out.
