386.Jingle Bells (6/10)
"Everybody makes mistakes, but after a while, it's not necessarily a mistake." Qin Shiou hugged Winnie distressedly and said.
There is no need to continue, he can also guess the rest of the matter, since Armand and Winnie's sister Tao were originally a couple, then now that he is with Winnie's sister, there is obviously an emotional dispute.
To put it simply, Armand and Winnie's sister Tao broke up, fell in love with Winnie's sister, and tied the knot.
Winnie sulked and said, "I shouldn't have brought them to the house so Armand wouldn't see Fawkes!" ”
Qin Shiou comforted: "Actually, this should be a good thing, although sisters are important, how can it be better than sisters?" Brotherhood is deep. ”
Winnie furrowed her lips and said, "Fawkes and I have a brotherly relationship?" Hell yes! And you misunderstood, the two of us are not sisters, it should be said that the two of us are half-sisters! ”
That's also a sister, Qin Shiou scratched his head. Winnie simply explained that her father had an unsuccessful marriage before, and later divorced his ex-wife before marrying her mother Miranda, and then had her.
Speaking of her sister Fawkes, Winnie didn't have a goddess at all, and began to fold her hands like a careful-eyed girl: "Since childhood, Fawkes has been the kind of girl in the neighborhood, she has good grades, she is well-behaved, she is sensible, she is beautiful, ha, she is the best, what about me?" Bad girl who doesn't hurt anyone! ”
Qin Shiou was stunned and said, "How come? You are the most elegant goddess, and I was conquered by you the first time I saw you. ”
Winnie's eyes rolled and she said with some embarrassment, "Of course I'm not the same at home and at work." All right. My dear, if this is who I am. Will you hate me? ”
Qin Shiou rolled the sheets around her and said with a smile: "In fact, I love you to death." Baby, you used to look like a goddess, I sometimes feel unreal, but now you are like a person. ”
Indeed, in the past, Winnie was like the kind of aristocratic lady in the movie, elegant, inclusive, dignified, and kind, but too perfect but not grounded. When he returned home this time, he saw a different Winnie, a more real Winnie.
The same will have a small temper. will be the same jealous, the same willful, Qin Shiou thinks that this kind of Winnie is more cute.
After playing for a while, Qin Shiou sat up and began to play the role of a virtuous man: "Winnie, although no matter what you do, I will support you." But I still have to say, you shouldn't lose your temper with your parents, they love you. ”
Winnie glared at him unhappily. "Love me? Do you know why I'm throwing tantrums at my parents? When Armand came to my house that summer and met Fox, they didn't fall in love directly, but they started their relationship when I went back to school. ”
"They talked for a year and a half before they were able to settle on a relationship. My whole family knew that the two of them were in love, and I was kept in the dark! ”
Winnie crossed her arms and said dissatisfiedly, "Do you know who I became after this incident? My sisters think I'm a pimping slut and a little bitch who helps my sister snatch her sister's boyfriend! All my college friends left me because of this! Why did I go to work as a flight attendant after graduation? Because only when I fly in the sky, I will minimize the chance of meeting them! ”
The more you say. The more aggrieved Winnie became, she took out her mobile phone and opened Twitter and MSN to show Qin Shiou. Among the certified friends, there is not a single female college classmate.
Qin Shiou looked at Winnie with tears in his eyes. hurriedly hugged her and said, "Sweetheart, this is fate!" If it weren't for Fox, you wouldn't have a grudge against the sisters; If you don't mess with your sisters, you won't be a flight attendant; If you don't work as a flight attendant, we won't know each other. ”
"But I just won't forgive them!" Winnie said angrily.
Qin Shiou held her pretty face with both hands, gently pecked her cherry lips, and said, "I am your boyfriend, and I will be your husband in the future, no matter what choice you make, I will accept it with you." We went back to the fishing ground after Christmas, and I didn't forgive them. ”
Hearing Qin Shiou say this, Winnie was a little entangled again, and snorted: "Actually, it doesn't matter if you have a better relationship with them." ”
"No, who let them mess with my daughter-in-law?" Qin Shiou said firmly.
Hearing Qin Shiou say this, Winnie suddenly looked happy, and when Miranda saw them when she washed up, Winnie immediately turned around and hugged Qin Shiou and began to kiss.
Miranda, apparently aware of her youngest daughter's temper, shook her head helplessly.
Time passed, and on December 24th, Christmas Eve was coming.
Christmas Eve actually does not simply refer to a night on Christmas Eve, at least in North America, specifically refers to the 24th all day, but because the general holiday atmosphere is easy to mobilize at night, large-scale activities are concentrated in the evening, and then it is called Christmas Eve.
This night is the Chinese New Year's Eve of the Christians, just like rushing home for the Spring Festival, and thousands of Europeans and Americans will rush home to reunite in the dust during these two days.
In Italy, gifts are opened on the morning of Christmas Eve, while in the United Kingdom, Ireland, Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Finland, Portugal and Poland Christmas gifts are usually opened on Christmas Eve or Christmas morning.
Starting in the morning, Qin Shiou accompanied Mario and Armand to the outskirts of the town to cut down a small red pine, drove a pickup truck and transported it home, Miranda and others hung up the prepared small neon lights, small gifts, and small cookies, Christian candles, and so on.
Then, the family will prepare a Christmas Eve dinner.
Canadians can enjoy a big meal on Christmas Eve and Christmas Eve, two sumptuous dinners in a row, which is not quite the same as in the United States, and may be influenced by the United Kingdom, because Christmas Eve and Christmas are like this.
The signature meal on Christmas Eve is roast turkey, while Christmas Eve is polenta.
The corn porridge is made in different ways, and Winnie's family sprinkles cream on the surface of the porridge, and puts some fruit in each bowl when scooping, which is sweet and fresh, and very distinctive.
This meal is not eaten around the table, but the meal is placed on the table, and the family gathers around the fireplace, and then chats, plays, sings, dances, etc., and the point is to bring out the festive atmosphere.
Fox played the violin very well, Armand played the traditional French accordion, and the two worked together to produce a classic "Silent Night".
Watching other husbands and wives sing and follow their wives, Qin Shiou broke out in a cold sweat here, because playing music is really not his strong point.
Winnie and Fawkes are enemies, and Winnie, who maintains grace and etiquette at all times, will become a little fighting in front of Fawkes, fighting for everything.
Without Qin Shiou's move, Winnie sat down in front of the piano by herself, dancing with her ten fingers like an elf, and an equally classic song was played, "Jingle Bells".
The first time Qin Shiou listened to this song carefully was when he was in junior high school, but it was not Christmas, but New Year's Day.
At that time, the class organized a New Year's Day event, and it happened to be snowing outside, and the teacher played this classic children's song.
Listening to Winnie playing now, Qin Shiou stood at the window and looked at the white snow outside, and his thoughts flew back to more than ten years ago. (To be continued......)
