After the New Year was over, he put on a new dress, and Qin Guanglin's life returned to the state of writing and painting all day long.

After a few days, on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, my aunt brought her son over to pay New Year's greetings.

Qin's mother and sister are ten years apart, and their relationship has always been very good, the two families often move around, and the aunt came from her hometown to take the children to have a good time in Los Angeles, and this habit has been maintained for many years.

"Auntie." Qin Guanglin greeted with a smile on his face, and reached out to grab a large handful of candy and stuffed it into his brother's pocket, "Xiaojie has grown taller again, I haven't seen it grow so fast in a year." ”

"Thank you, cousin." Zheng Jie, who had just reached the age of ten, was very polite and bowed his head obediently to thank him.

"I'll grow taller than you in the future." The aunt snorted and turned her head to look, "What about my sister?" ”

"My mom went out for a walk, hey...... Every day at home, you are in a panic, you sit first. ”

Qin Guanglin greeted, picked up the teapot and cup and went into the kitchen to wash it, poured it for the two of them, the aunt was not polite, and after drinking a cup of grunt, she asked Qin Guanglin to renew it, looking at him and winking at him, "Listen to my sister, you moved out and lived with your girlfriend?" She turned her head to look, "Where?" My girlfriend asked me to meet. ”

"It's just a girlfriend, and I'm not married, so of course I go back to my home for the New Year."

Qin Guanglin didn't hide it, took out his mobile phone from his pocket and swiped it twice, pushed it over to show her, "How is it?" Are we a good match? ”

"Hey, it looks good, it's just that you're stupid, waiting for me to dress you up......"

"No, don't, no, I'm fine." Qin Guanglin hurriedly refused.

This aunt has been keen to dress him up with bells and whistles since she was a child, and she has also put lipstick on her red cheeks, but now Zheng Jie is a little older and more stable, but she still likes to toss him.

According to his estimates, his taste in daily dressing is likely to be the sequelae of the girl who was dressed up as a bells and whistles when she was a child.

The past is unbearable.

"Look scares you." Auntie laughed, "Don't worry, you're too old...... When to get married? ”

"I don't believe it, I'm poor now, what kind of knot to take."

"Hurry up, if you don't hurry up, you'll be in a hurry, what are you afraid of, and your uncle and I didn't have anything at that time."

The aunt returned the phone to him, picked up a banana from the coffee table and peeled it, and said while eating: "The house in Los Angeles is expensive, if you don't have enough money to buy a house when you get married, I don't have that much, it's okay to get together tens of thousands for you to use, and if you meet a good girl, take it quickly, I heard your mother say ......."

"Okay, okay, it's too far, you keep it for Xiaojie first, I'm okay to work here now, No, I just bought a car." Qin Guanglin politely refused, this aunt has never worried about it since he went to school, to graduation, and now that he should get married, he is now considered to have a little success in his career, so he quickly took out the key and showed it to his aunt.

"Huh? How much? The aunt took it and fiddled with it twice, and when she looked at the four rings, she knew that it was not simple, and she was immediately very relieved.

It's finally out of the picture.

"More than 200,000." Qin Guanglin scratched his head and smiled.

It's not a show-off, it's an account.

In the first few years, the family conditions had not yet risen, and my aunt was still single at that time, helping Qin's mother grit her teeth and pull him up, until he was in high school, he was able to get out of the way and relax.

Although he and his aunt are only a teenager apart, from the bottom of his heart, this is half his mother.

"Where's my uncle? Why didn't you come together? ”

"He's busy with business, so he ran away in the third year of junior high school...... aunt said when she heard the door knocking, looked back, and shouted, "Sister! ”

"Eh, when did you guys get here? Don't make a phone call, let Xiao Linzi pick you up at the station......"

"Next time, let him pick it up next time." The aunt stood up with a smile, "Xiao Linzi is out, the four rings are open, you don't say a word to me, you know every day to show off your future daughter-in-law on the phone......"

Seeing the two chatting, Qin Guanglin took an orange and handed it to Zheng Jie, clapped his hands and went over to open the refrigerator to take a look, and said, "I'm the chef at noon today, I'm cooking, you guys have a good rest—what do you want to eat?" I'll go buy some more now. ”

"Yo, you can cook? Don't poison me...... Do whatever you can do, pick what you are good at. ”

"Okay...... Xiaojie is going together? See what you want to eat. Qin Guanglin walked to the door as he spoke, and asked.

"You go ahead, don't buy him a bunch of snacks."

"Okay, okay."

All the way out, there were few stalls in the vegetable market during the Chinese New Year, he drove farther to buy the vegetables, rolled up his sleeves and showed his skills, and brought the cooking skills he had worked hard for half a year to the extreme.

A table full of dishes.

"Yes." Auntie couldn't help but praise, it was indeed decent, "I have to teach Xiaojie another day, let him learn such a hand, and find a girlfriend in the future." ”

"Xiaojie is only old to consider a girlfriend."

"I'm still young, and I don't fall in love." Zheng Jie looks quiet, but he understands everything.

"Hahaha...... Ready. ”

Since the Chinese New Year, this is the most lively lunch, joyful, three big and one small piece finished eating, Qin Guanglin remembered that he forgot something, turned around and went to the house and took out a thick red envelope.

"Xiaojie, your New Year's money."

"No, why is it so thick?" The aunt glanced at him, "It's making money, isn't it?" Change one. ”

"Tsk, for Xiaojie, you care so much...... Take it. Qin Guanglin squatted down and stuffed Zheng Jie in his pocket, but he couldn't get in, so he simply handed it to his aunt, "This is Xiaojie's, you can keep it at most, don't give it to others." ”

"Look at your ......"

"Oh, take it, I said it wasn't for you." Qin's mother also took out a red envelope, which was not as big as Qin Guanglin's, and handed it to Zheng Jie to give him pocket money, "Take it, don't give this to your mother, keep the flowers for yourself, ah." ”

"Eh......"

The aunt pinched the red envelope and twisted her eyebrows, then sighed and stretched, "Okay, I'll help Xiaojie keep it - Guanglin is really promising, remember to earn more this year, strive to earn a suite, and marry your daughter-in-law." ”

"Definitely."

"Thank you, auntie."

Zheng Jie had long known that the thick one didn't belong to him, and he was very happy with the little red envelope.

"Thank you, cousin."

"How did you do on your final exam?" Qin Guanglin sat on the sofa and turned into the most hated relative, and asked with a smile.

"Third in class."

Children who learn well are fearless.

"Hey, I remember last year being the first to come?"

“……”

Hateful relatives can always find people angry.

"Haha, third is not bad, take the first place again this year."

Qin Guanglin teased Xiaojie for a while, seeing that Qin's mother and aunt were sneaking around and didn't know what they were talking about, their eyes were still glancing over here from time to time, and suddenly his back was cold, and he quietly went to the studio to avoid them.

……

Night.

Qin Guanglin was lying on the big bed in He Wu's residence, pinching Doraemon on the side of the pillow and having some difficulty sleeping.

In previous years, the aunt and Qin's mother slept together at night, and the sister-in-law slept in the guest room if he came, Zheng Jie and Qin Guanglin slept together, but this year it was not so troublesome, the aunt slept in the guest room, Zheng Jie slept in Qin Guanglin's room, and Qin Guanglin went back to his residence to sleep.

Anyway, it's just two steps, Zheng Jie is also sensible, not like ordinary leather children who are messing around, Si Sven, it is likable at first glance.

Doraemon's body was soft, it would deform if it was pinched lightly, and it returned to its original state after being released, Qin Guanglin pinched it for a while, but still didn't feel the slightest sleepiness, and wanted to look at the plan given by Chen Rui again, but found that he didn't bring it at home.

Sitting on the bed and thinking quietly for a moment, he simply got up and sorted out the two of them's belongings, so that they could clean up when they had free time tomorrow.

The room is no longer as simple as when I first moved in, there was only one bed, one table and one cabinet, except for a bunch of books and computers on the table, a pillow and quilt on the bed, and nothing else; Now for most of the year, all kinds of miscellaneous items have piled up a lot, such as extra pen and paper frames, shoebox hangers, storage boxes, paper boxes that can be used twice after receiving the express delivery, his simple drawing board, why not take home the test papers, clothes and bags for two people, summer quilts, etc., all of which cannot be stuffed into the cabinet are packed into the bag and piled aside.

It's getting more and more like home.

The things of the two of them are not messy on the side, but only give people a warm feeling.

Qin Guanglin sorted out the items one by one, threw away the useless preparations, and resummarized the useful ones, and couldn't help but smile when he saw the glasses in the storage box, and put them aside to continue to tidy up.

What's more, the storage box is full of some gadgets, paintings and small gifts he gave, a long retired red panda hair rope and the like, Qin Guanglin took it out and looked at it carefully, with a touch of memory and warmth in his eyes.

Obviously, they only started dating in April, and there are only a few dozen days to go to a year, but it seems that they have been living together for a long time.

Probably because of cohabitation...... He smiled and sorted them out one by one, and in the end, there was only a small iron box left at the bottom of the storage box, with the print of moon cakes on it.

Qin Guanglin curiously picked it up and looked left and right, and opened the lid along the edge gap.

Inside was a mess of torn off pill bottles.

Looking back at the small box of Band-Aids and cold medicine under the desk, and then at the tin box in his hand, his heart sank.
