Chapter 17: The Thirtieth Year of the Chinese New Year's Eve

Even though the world has changed dramatically, some traditions have been preserved.

On the evening of the Chinese New Year's Eve, there is still a Spring Festival party, but the scale is much smaller.

In the evening, Xu Qiu brought some fruits and nuts, Wang Sulan and Liang Yuning, a family of three, to visit Chen Yonghui's house, and decided to go home to eat dumplings and watch the party after the visit.

In fact, this is the first time Xu Qiu has visited Chen Yonghui's family, and his family lives in the opposite community, which can be reached in a few minutes.

In the past, Chen Yonghui came to Xu Qiu, but in the past few days, Chen Yonghui has not answered any of his calls, and Xu Qiu is a little worried.

I knocked on the door, but it was unusually quiet inside.

After waiting for a few minutes, Xu Qiu knocked on the door again.

There was still no one inside who answered, so Xu Qiu shouted, and after a while, he heard footsteps.

The door was opened from the inside, and it was Chen Yonghui.

But seeing Chen Yonghui's state, Xu Qiu was taken aback.

I saw that Chen Yonghui had lost some weight, his spirit was very haggard, and he had heavy dark circles under his eyes.

Xu Qiu smiled and said, "Bring some fruits and nuts and visit your mother." ”

Chen Yonghui lowered his head and said with a low expression, "Come in." ”

Wang Sulan saw Chen Yonghui's appearance and asked with concern, "What happened?" ”

Chen Yonghui let out a long sigh and said, "My mother, she, just now, passed away. ”

Xu Qiu and Wang Sulan visited for the first time, but they didn't expect to encounter this thing.

Entering the house, Xu Qiu patted Chen Yonghui's shoulder and said, "Mourn!" ”

Wang Sulan touched Chen Yonghui's head and comforted, "Xiaohui, don't be too sad, your mother has been paralyzed for so many years, and this departure may also be a relief." ”

"I understand that my mother passed away, which is a relief for our family."

In Chen Yonghui's eyes, there were no tears, only exhaustion and helplessness.

As Wang Sulan said, the death of her mother is really a relief for them.

I remember that Xu Qiu once asked him, if he used the price of becoming a demon to save his mother, would he accept this result?

But this kind of brutal reversal will be completely demonized, and you will never be able to turn back into a human being, and you will lose your human memory.

For example, just like a person who has been demonized by a puppet spider demon, he has also become a spider demon, and at the same time has lost his human memory.

Chen Yonghui still chose to let his mother die as a human being, if he survived after being completely demonized, he would no longer be a human being, let alone his mother, which he couldn't accept.

Chen Yonghui's father walked out of the room, said a few words, and returned to the room.

Xu Qiu's family also entered the room and saw Chen Yonghui's dead and emaciated mother.

Xu Qiu remembered that not long ago, Wang Sulan was also seriously ill and bedridden.

If Wang Sulan hadn't recovered, would she have died like this soon?

Luckily, yes, Wang Sulan recovered.

Although at such times, this should not be compared.

But when I saw Chen Yonghui's mother who passed away, I always had mixed feelings in my heart.

Wang Sulan went home and brought some dumplings to Chen Yonghui's house, comforted their father and son, and the family left.

It should have been a very happy day, but at this moment, because of the death of Chen Yonghui's mother, the atmosphere became dull, especially Wang Sulan, who was sullen.

Xu Qiu said, "Mom, I'm hungry, let's go and make dumplings." Ning Ning, turn on the TV, the party is about to start, I heard that your sister Zichu will appear as one of the hosts tonight. ”

Wang Sulan walked into the kitchen with a smile, and while serving dumplings, the dishes that had been prepared were served on the table.

Liang Yuning heard that Yuan Zichu would appear on the scene, so she turned on the TV excitedly and waited anxiously for the start of the party.

After a while, the father and daughter came to visit, saying that they were visiting, but in fact, they came together for the New Year.

They brought a lot of fruits and food, and of course, they bought a lot of snacks for Liang Yuning, and Yan Yan also bought a lot of supplements for Wang Sulan very carefully.

Yan Yan brought some semi-finished products of food, and with a little processing, they could be made into dishes. Then, Yan Yan and Wang Sulan were busy in the kitchen together.

Seeing his mother and Lao Shang in the kitchen, looking at each other, Xu Qiu was uncomfortable for a while, and couldn't help but stare at him.

Shang Xuewan smiled and said, "Xu Qiu, I don't care about my father and your mother's affairs, what kind of vinegar do you still eat?" You're going to school in Qingyun City soon, and your mother's time in the future will be my father's. You should ask my dad to take care of your mom. ”

Xu Qiu snorted coldly and said, "Li'er is this Li'er, but I just don't go well in my heart." ”

Shang Xue shook his head helplessly.

"Xu Qiu, I think you should find a girlfriend, don't pester your mother all day long." After glancing at Liang Yuning, Shang Xue's eyes rolled and said, "I really figured it out, the cultivation of my girlfriend, right?" ”

Xu Qiu looked at Shang Xue with disdain and said, "Look at you all day long, you don't know how many evil things are in your head." I think you're the right person to talk about a boyfriend, you're 24 years old, and you're afraid your classmates will all play soy sauce, right? ”

Shang Xue spread his hands helplessly: "What should I do if no one looks down on me?" ”

Xu Qiu glanced at Shang Xue and said, "You are feminine, in fact, you dress yourself well, you are still quite a Peugeot girl, someone must be chasing." ”

Shang Xue looked at his clothes, he was too professional, he had short hair, and he didn't know how to dress up, so he was really not feminine.

"Will anyone chase you?" Shang Xue asked.

"Be confident, you look pretty and learn more about makeup and dressing, there will be unexpected changes."

Shang Xue bit his lip and said, "My mother died early, my father was busy working all day, and he wouldn't dress me up as a girl, and he would become like this when he grew up." Honestly, if I wore a dress, I would blush. ”

"What are you shy about this big man? You're a woman, it's a natural thing to wear a skirt, what's blushing? ”

Shang Xue smiled and nodded yes.

"Let's not talk about this, congratulations on being admitted to Hearts Academy, you are really good."

Xu Qiu waved his hand and said, "I don't think there is anything good about Red Heart Academy, if it weren't for satisfying my mother's vanity, I wouldn't have taken any college at all." ”

"Che, if you say this in front of a candidate who can't pass the heart, they will definitely scold you."

"I'm not going to be honest anymore? They love to scold, as long as they don't let me hear it. ”

At this time, Liang Yuning, who had been waiting in front of the TV for a while, suddenly shouted, "The party has begun, Sister Zichu is out!" ”

On TV, four presenters took to the stage, two men and two women.

And Yuan Zichu, who dresses more neutrally on weekdays, also deliberately dressed up today.

Although her hair is not long, it is also pulled up on her head, and after she wears an evening dress, she also highlights her good figure.

Yuan Zichu, who appeared on the party for the first time, did not show the slightest stage fright, and was very calm and steady.

In recent days, Liang Yuning is often taken out to play by Yuan Zichu, so Liang Yuning and Yuan Zichu are also very close.

Seeing Yuan Zichu appear in this appearance, Liang Yuning's eyes widened, and he sighed, "Sister Zichu is so beautiful today." ”

This reminded Xu Qiu that the former Yuan Zichu had also condensed his mind about Liang Yu.

But a lot of things happened later, which made Yuan Zichu change a lot.

However, before Xu Qiu goes to Qingyun City, he must talk to Yuan Zichu well, and don't let her have any more thoughts about Liang Yuning.

The sound of firecrackers has already sounded in the community, and you can see the colorful fireworks rising into the sky from the window glass.

The atmosphere of the Spring Festival gradually came to the fore.

The dishes were ready, the dumplings were ready, and Wang Sulan took out the drinks and melons and fruits again.

Several people sat down to prepare for dinner, and at this time, Yan Yan smiled mysteriously and took out a bottle of liquor from the bottom of the table.

"Xu Qiu, do you know how to drink liquor?" Yan Yan asked.

"It's okay, if you want to drink, I'll drink some with you." Xu Qiu replied indifferently.

Wang Sulan looked anxious and said, "Xiaoqiu can't drink, he has never drunk since he was a child." ”

But Yan Yan had already poured two glasses of wine and handed one to Xu Qiu.

"He said he could drink it." Yan Yan said with a grin.

Wang Sulan pinched her words and explained, "It's okay to drink, but it's not allowed to drink more." ”

Who knew that Xu Qiu picked up the two-two-five cup and said, "Come on!" ”

After saying that, he looked up and did not change his face.

Wang Sulan and Yan Yan who watched it were already surprised, didn't they say that they hadn't drunk since they were children? looks like he doesn't change his face and drinks alcohol, and he doesn't look like he can't drink.

"Drink!"

Xu Qiu looked at the cup in Yan Yan's hand, Yan Yan was helpless, and he didn't want to lose face in front of Xu Qiu, so he had to follow and die.

After drinking this cup, Yan Yan immediately felt cloudy, he didn't drink much, and he had never drunk so much.

However, Xu Qiu directly poured him a full cup again, and this time Xu Qiu stood up with a somewhat sincere attitude.

"I'm going to the academy soon, I ask Uncle Shang to take care of me at home, and I'll toast you."

Xu Qiu picked up the wine glass for Yan Yan, and after clinking glasses, he waited for Yan Yan to drink first.

This cup of rhetoric was even more difficult to shirk, so he picked up the cup and drank it slowly.

Who knew that Xu Qiu was on his back again, and he had no choice but to speak, and he drank it all in one go.

Wang Sulan looked at the empty wine bottle and complained, "This is liquor, what should you drink as a drink?" It's only been two minutes, and I'm done drinking it in one pound, and I'm not allowed to drink it again. ”

Hearing Wang Sulan's words, Yan Yan nodded again and again, "Mmmm, don't drink, don't drink!"

My mother, if you drink it in this way with Xu Qiu, you will die.

Xu Qiu was very unhappy, and shouted, "Mom, men drink, women don't care, the two of us are just beginning, Uncle Shang, do you still have liquor?" ”

Yan Yan felt that the world had turned around, he brought two bottles of wine, but he didn't dare to take them out again, but he proposed to drink, and now he said that if he didn't drink it, he wouldn't be able to get off the stage.

He looked at Wang Sulan with eyes asking for help, Wang Sulan smiled and said, "Look at your unproductive appearance, just say it if you don't drink, it's not someone else, what are you afraid of?" Xiaoqiu, in the end, you are not allowed to drink it anymore. ”

Suddenly, there was a sharp knock on the door, and Wang Sulan got up in surprise to open the door.

Outside the door stood a man and a woman, two strange foreign faces.

The woman has an intellectual temperament, blonde hair and blue eyes, very beautiful.

Although the man has a beard, his facial features are very handsome.

Wang Sulan asked, "Who are you two looking for?" ”

The woman frowned, looked at Xu Qiu in front of the dining table in the living room, and asked in an unkind tone, "You are Xu Qiu's mother, right?" I want to ask, where did your son get my daughter? ”
