The dinner table left Tao Defu, and the Yuanyuan family was added, which was naturally more lively than noon.

Eating, drinking, talking, laughing, and laughing, by the way, finalized the next day's program - picking bayberry.

Cherries fall on the market and bayberry is vigorous.

And Qing City is the hometown of bayberry since ancient times, and the bayberry produced is big and sweet. It's just that in recent years, with the promotion and sales of other bayberry producing areas, it has gradually overshadowed the momentum of clearing the market.

But in any case, it's the taste that counts. Fame is something that you can't see or eat, and who knows how much water it contains.

He Wei hasn't really picked bayberry yet.

Although my hometown in my previous life belonged to the south, I didn't grow bayberry, and the most planted was peaches, which were white and red in white. Freshly ripe sweet and crispy, ripe soft and juicy. But either way, it's full of flavor and mouth.

In his previous life, he was born in a high family and lived in Kyoto, and the bayberry tree likes moisture rather than dryness, yin rather than yang, warmth rather than cold, not to mention picking, and can't see it.

After wearing it, I have gone up the mountain and picked the fruit, but I have not picked bayberry.

Yes, as soon as Yuanyuan Tongshoe's whim proposal came out, the eleven people present, including Xiao Long Bao, who was raised by his father with tender claws like lotus roots, unanimously passed.

"Yikes!" After He Wei and the others raised their hands to vote, they remembered something: "I promised to find Duoduo to play with Xiaoqing tomorrow." ”

Qian Duoduo and Xu Xiaoqing's school Dragon Boat Festival is closed for two days, that is, today and tomorrow are holidays, and they will return to school the day after tomorrow to make up classes. Boarding students are expected to return to campus by 6pm tomorrow evening.

For this reason, Xu Xiaoqing complained repeatedly on the phone: It was released for two days. You have the ability to put it for three days!

He Qingdong played with Xiao Nizi's braids (in front of his parents-in-law, he dared to do pure little actions such as playing with braids), and proposed: "Play left and right together." It's better to find them to pick bayberry together. ”

After finishing it, I secretly added in my heart: The daughter-in-law still looks good under her nose.

It's not that I'm worried about what tricks they can play with the girls. Rather, he hasn't forgotten what his junior high school classmates have called? He forgot to ask his little cousin what the other party's surname was, anyway, he wanted to ask Xiao Nizi to go out to confess when he graduated. At that time, I was blocked by my brother-in-law and had no chance, but how small is the Qing City, and what happened to the streets and alleys? The potential threat must be nibbled in the cradle!

When He Wei heard this, her apricot eyes were shining: "Call Duoduo and Xiaoqing too?" All right? ”

"What's not to do. Whether we come or not, we have to pick it, it's just two more people. In his heart, he said: Anyway, it is not the turn of the master and the little daughter-in-law to live in a two-person world. There are ten shiny super bulbs, and two more are fine.

Everyone else offered to go along. said that if He Wei went out with her classmates and didn't pick bayberry with them. That's boring. It's rare to celebrate the holidays, and the big guys get together to be lively.

So, He Wei called Qian Duoduo and Xu Xiaoqing. Invite them to participate in their own bayberry picking activities.

Of course, Qian Duoduo and Xu Xiaoqing were willing, and they all said: "Okay, good!" Meet downstairs at your house at nine o'clock tomorrow morning, right? OK no problem! ”

Xu Xiaoqing has a guest in his house today, but it is not Uncle Xu and his new daughter-in-law and the oil bottle girl brought by his daughter-in-law.

Qingming's blind date must have given Uncle Xu a good impression. Thereupon. On May Day, the two families were decided.

They are all in their forties and nearly fifty years old, and they are the first to get married, even if it is a happy event, it is only a small banquet, and then they get a certificate and move together.

Taking advantage of the Dragon Boat Festival at home, Uncle Xu's brothers and sisters took turns to invite the eldest family to dinner.

Xu Xiaoqing's house happened to be tonight's turn.

When He Wei called, the guests at home had not dispersed. She was not embarrassed to hold the phone and talk to herself, so she made an appointment with Wenxinyuan at nine o'clock tomorrow and hung up.

"Who's calling? Let our family Qingqing be so happy. It can't be a male classmate, right? Xu Xiaoqing's aunt is afraid that the world will not make fun of it.

Xu Xiaoqing rolled her eyes indecently: "Who said that the male classmate, it's He Wei, she invited me and Duo Duo Minger to go to Dome Mountain with her family to pick bayberry." ”

Xu Xiaoqing's eldest aunt came out of the kitchen with the fruit after the meal and Xu's mother, and said casually: "The cost of picking the bayberry orchard in Dome Mountain is not low, why don't you go to Nanzhuanggou?" It is grown by the farmers themselves, and the bayberry is two or three yuan cheaper per catty than that of Dome Mountain, and the oil money is also saved a lot......"

Xu Xiaoqing didn't want to listen to a few aunts preaching, so she grabbed two watermelons and ran to her room, "Mom, I'm going to do my homework!" Ming'er goes out to play, and now I don't have time to do it. ”

Mother Xu scolded her with a few words, and turned back to greet the guests: "Regardless of her, she is spoiled by me and her father." Come on, come on, eat fruit. ”

Hao Caizhu took a slice of watermelon reservedly, and then Xu's mother said: "Although the girl's family is more spoiled than the boy, don't spoil it too much, if you spoil it too much, it may become a harm to her." ”

It's absolutely okay to say this alone, Mother Xu even raised her hands and feet in agreement, but she couldn't stand it and added a sentence on the back: "Like our family spirit, I don't pet it much." When I was a child, I beat if I didn't behave, but now that I've grown into a big girl, I can't beat her, but it's a common thing to train her a few words. The principal of her junior high school held a parent-teacher conference and specially left me to speak, saying that I was too strict, but said that without my strict mother, Lingling was afraid that she would not be able to achieve today's achievements...... Hey, it's like I'm bragging, but it's really her junior high school principal who said it, isn't it? ”

Fu Ling was in a daze, starting from Xu Xiaoqing answering the phone.

The He family is going to Dome Mountain to pick bayberry, so Brother He Wei will also go, right?

Since the Qingming meeting, she seems to have fallen into a secret love that doesn't know the end and the ending, and she can't extricate herself.

Knowing that crush is not advisable, unrequited love is unrequited, knowing that now is the most critical moment, and not to be taken lightly, but knowing that he knows that he is still like a moth to a fire, he indulges in it without hesitation, and he can't convince his heart.

She thought, she was probably in love with that man. I don't know what to do, and I go deep. It's him when his eyes are closed, and it's still him when his eyes are open. Obviously that person. has never given her a good face from beginning to end, and her attitude is completely inferior to the male classmates around her who have confessed to her openly and secretly. To be cute is to fall in love. There is no justification for this.

When she returned to the campus after Qingming, she suddenly felt a wave of unexplained disgust when she saw those big boys whose development period had not yet ended, with pimples on their faces and thick voices like male ducks. is the same as liking a person, hating a person, and also can't find a reason.

However, the more you compare, the deeper you fall.

So much so that the last two monthly exams. Worse each time. The head teacher has talked to her. She panicked and didn't dare tell her mother. At the same time, he was aggrieved: he liked someone day and night, but that person didn't know anything about it. This is unfair.

But until the guests left, Xu Xiaoqing didn't come out of the room.

Fu Ling pursed his lips and asked Xu's mother: "Auntie, I want to ask Qingqing if something is done?" ”

Xu Xiaoqing's door won't open. She couldn't go in if she wanted to.

Mother Xu naturally helped her knock on the door: "Qingqing!" Qingqing, your uncle, they're leaving. Why don't you come out to see off a guest? Can't you catch up with the homework late? ”

Xu Xiaoqing was struggling with physics questions, and when she heard Xu's mother shouting, she dropped her pen and opened the door, rubbed her eyes and asked, "Uncle, are they leaving?" ”

"yes, go say goodbye to them." lest the new sister-in-law be crooked. Mother Xu added a sentence in her heart.

Hao Caizhu's words were obviously praising her Fu Ling, but secretly she was saying that her own Qingqing had not taught her well. What kind of spoiled is crooked, what kind of person is this! It's not embarrassing to say this kind of thing when you are a guest for the first time. It seems that you should really listen to your daughter. Quickly draw a line with the old family.

Fu Ling took advantage of Xu Xiaoqing to run to say goodbye to her stepfather and mother, and hurriedly followed: "Qingqing." I have something to tell you. ”

"What's the matter?" Xu Xiaoqing asked with impatience in her heart.

She didn't like Fu Ling, and she didn't like it at first sight. It's too fake, it's too contrived. But because she is the stepdaughter of the uncle, she has to give some face. What's more, this is still in your own home, you don't care, you have to take care of your parents' faces.

But Fu Ling's next words made her angry.

"What's that? What did you just say? Do you want to go with me to the Dome Mountain to pick bayberry? No kidding, okay! It was my classmates who invited me to go, not our own home. There are many guests in the family, do you know that there are limited seats in the car? I'm embarrassed enough to follow Duoduo, how can I take you again. And you don't know Weiwei well, what can you talk about? ”

After a pause, Xu Xiaoqing squinted and guessed: "What, you shouldn't like Yuanyuan's lobby brother, right?" ”

Fu Ling subconsciously asked blankly: "Brother Yuanyuan, his lobby?" Who's that? ”

completely forgot that her mother was greeting other relatives of the Xu family at the door, Xu Xiaoqing's voice was not light, and it was easy to hear the words "I like so-and-so". But it was difficult to say it in front of her relatives, Hao Caizhu could only grit her teeth and endure it secretly, planning to ask her daughter when only the two of them were left. The second year of high school and the third year of high school, at such a critical moment, don't be distracted by messy things.

Fu Ling saw Xu Xiaoqing glancing at her with disdain, so he ran to say "goodbye, let's go" to his relatives, and then rushed back to the room to catch up with his homework.

I wanted to chase in and ask for an explanation, but her mother grabbed her arm: "It's not early, it's time to go back." You see that Qingqing knows hard work, why are you regressing more and more? ”

Hearing this, the corners of Xu's father and Xu's mother's mouth twitched. Nima, how bad our daughter is. It is used as a negative teaching material at every turn!

Hao Caizhu was anxious, and unconsciously said something offensive to people, and when she got home, she took advantage of Uncle Xu to go to the bathroom to take a shower, chased her daughter to her room, and didn't beat around the bush to inquire, and went straight to the point:

"Lingling, tell your mother honestly, do you like any male classmate? You're stupid! At this juncture, it turned out to be ...... Even if his grades are on par with yours, that's not good! This is a high-voltage line, and your teachers have said more than once that when you fall in love in three years of high school, your grades will decline. On this trip to Kyoto, did you forget the example your aunt gave you? Your uncle is a distant relative, and his grades in the first and second years of high school are sure to be able to enter Beijing University and Huada, but as a result, because he was entangled with a boy in the same class in the third year of high school, he didn't even secure the second line in the end. The family didn't have the financial conditions for her to study three books, and finally went to a bad school that didn't go into the stream, and she graduated from school, so how could she have a job in a big city? In the end, I married someone with the same poor conditions, and it was like that for the rest of my life......"

"Oops, Mom!" Fu Ling stomped his feet, restrained his panic and retorted: "Xu Xiaoqing said a few words casually, and you believe it?" ”

"So you mean there's no such thing?" Hao Caizhu breathed a sigh of relief and sneered: "There is no best, my mother just persuades you, really, after the final exam, the next thing is the real tough battle, you must maintain your current results, and it will be more stable if you can take a few more steps." Don't think about what you don't have, huh? Then you should rest early, Mom won't bother you, take a shower and leave your clothes for Mom to wash tomorrow. It's the same if you're tired all day, go to bed early at night, and get up early tomorrow to review......"

Sending away his chattering mother, Fu Ling threw himself on the bed in pain and pounded the bed board hard.

What to do? Even when she was talking to her mother, she had that person in her head. At that time, the solemn and sometimes gentle side face, the corners of the mouth that look good when occasionally raised...... Although it wasn't for her, she just recalled and recalled inexplicably. The more I don't want to think about it, the more it fills my mind. No way! She's going to have to go crazy like this.

Wen Xinyuan、Nine o'clock in the morning, right?

Fu Ling decided to get up early the next morning and secretly go to Wenxinyuan to have a look.

If, if He Wei's eldest brother was really at home, then she would stuff a note for him. The note had her new Penguin number and email address on it, hoping to get a response from him......

I fell asleep with good intentions, but the next morning, I was shattered by reality.

Because Hao Caizhu has been at home all the time, there are a lot of vegetables in the refrigerator, she didn't even go to the vegetable market, and sat in the living room to make sweaters.

Fu Ling came out several times, and was meticulously cared for by her mother: first breakfast was brought to the table, then milk helped uncover it, and finally the peeled and cut fruit was inserted into a toothpick and sent to her.

At other times, they were kind and pleasant, but as long as Fu Ling mentioned it: "Mom, I want to go downstairs for a walk." ”

Hao Caizhu's face immediately sank: "I was out all day yesterday, and I haven't walked enough?" You're done with your homework? Done all the revisions? It's only been two days off, and you've wasted a day, and you want to continue to waste it? ”

Xu suspected that her daughter had another purpose when she went downstairs, and Hao Caizhu, who hated iron and steel, simply took a chair and sat in her daughter's room, and said: Mom will accompany you to review your homework.

Anyway, it's a sweater, what's the difference between sitting here and sitting there?

But Fu Ling was sad, she was treated as a prisoner by her mother, and she couldn't find a chance to go out.

Until the clock clock in the living room rang for nine o'clock, Fu Ling closed his eyes and crumpled the note paper in his palm in disappointment. (To be continued.) )
