Chapter 553: 20 Years of Plainness

Chinese New Year's Eve 2040, the Truth Academy of Earth Switzerland.

The days passed uneventfully, year after year, and time turned to 2040.

In the dean's apartment in the early morning, Xiao Yuebai turned over the steak on the frying pan, smelling the aroma of the beef in the pot, Boss Xiao couldn't help but show a satisfied look, and whistled proudly.

Next to Xiao Yuebai, Kaisha, who was dressed in a white gauze skirt, also used the chopsticks in her hand with a smile on her face to arrange the side dishes that had been cut, and her every move was full of delicacy and elegance.

Gently pressing the steak in the pot with the shovel in his hand, feeling the soft feeling coming from the shovel, Xiao Yuebai nodded and turned his head to look at the woman beside him and asked, "5 medium rare?" ”

Having just put a celery on the plate, hearing her husband's words, Keisha raised her head and raised her eyebrows, and the tacit understanding between the husband and wife made it unnecessary for each other to say the next words.

Scooping two steaks out of the fruit and placing them on a plate that had been decorated by Keisha next to them, the couple walked out of the kitchen with one in hand.

Sitting down at two adjacent seats at the dining table in the living room, and then picking up a knife and fork at the same time, the man added some salt grains for the woman, and the woman added some black pepper for the man.

The two of them will not worry about their actions ruining each other's enjoyment of food in the future, because nearly 100 years of getting along have already given them a deep understanding of each other's habits.

After a delicious breakfast, the two cleaned up the tragedy together, and after finishing the housework, they sat down on the sofa together, letting the TV play a program that the couple didn't care about.

Suddenly, Keisha suddenly raised her arms and stretched out, then leaned on her husband's shoulder with a smile, and said with a smile:

"emmm, another 20 years have passed in this flash, and I don't know if Xiao Kai is doing well over there?"

Hearing his wife suddenly talk about his son, Xiao Yuebai smiled slightly, opened his arms and stopped his wife into his arms, turned his head to look at his lazy wife in his arms and said:

"Anyway, it's already 23, it's his own choice, since he likes it, let him do it, I'm sure this kid won't let us down."

Keisha, who was leaning on Xiao Yuebai's body, arched her head to her husband's chin when she heard this, and then said proudly: "That's a must!" ”

The couple was just about to talk about something else when the doorbell of the apartment suddenly rang, and when Keisha saw this, she hurriedly got up from her husband's arms and walked towards the door.

When I opened the door, it turned out to be Hexi, Liangbing and Rose, and Peggy's family of three, and when she saw them coming, Keisha hurriedly smiled and let them into the house.

A group of men and women, large and small, entered the house, which made the house that was still a little deserted just now suddenly become a lot more lively, Xiao Yuebai had already stood up from the sofa at this time and greeted everyone.

After everyone had sat down, they sat in the corner of the sofa, and their bodies were completely immersed in the cold, and they first glanced up at the room, and then asked Keisha, who was bringing the kettle from the kitchen:

"Sister, where is Xiao Kai? Won't you come back for the Chinese New Year this year? ”

Putting the kettle on the coffee table in front of everyone, seeing that her husband was distributing water cups to everyone, Keisha sighed leisurely, and then said helplessly:

"Well, this kid is in that kind of place now, and he has to obey the orders of his superiors, since there is no holiday over there, then he can't come back."

The conversation between Liang Bing and Keisha successfully attracted everyone's attention, and Liang Bing, who had not yet noticed it, got up at this time and poured himself a glass of water, then pouted and said:

"If you want me to say, you are really ruthless as a mother, my son went to that kind of place, and he has been gone for so many years, and he will not be allowed to come back during the New Year, really!"

Liang Bing said this unintentionally, but Rose next to her was not happy when she heard this, only to see her raised her willow eyebrows, and said with a slightly angry face:

"What's wrong? Are you complaining that the place is not good? You know that's where I came from, and you're looking down on us? ”

In the entire universe, the sky is not afraid of the cold ice, I don't know why when I was in front of the rose, I lost that momentum, and hurriedly said with a smile:

"What, I didn't mean that, I just haven't seen my nephew for a long time, I miss him, not what you think!"

Faced with Liang Bing's explanation, Rose didn't say anything, but rolled her eyes, picked up the water that Liang Bing had just poured for herself, and took a sip.

This scene made Xiao Yuebai, Kaisha and Hexi on the side snicker, but it only caused a cold white eye.

Peggy, who was on the side, saw that everyone was noisy and noisy, and glanced at her husband Rogers, and then said to everyone:

"We didn't know why Chinese people celebrate the Spring Festival before, but as your culture has become more and more influential in the world, I now understand that maybe every year there is a time for such a family reunion, which is really very happy."

After hearing Peggy's words, everyone also tacitly stopped teasing and frolicking with each other, and Xiao Yuebai sat down on the stool next to him at this time, looked at Peggy and said:

"In fact, our Spring Festival first came from some myths and legends, which should have been a sacrificial ritual at first, but with the development of time, it gradually formed a habit."

"And people are also in this habit to give the feelings you just said to this sacrifice."

Hearing this, Peggy's eyes were full of wisdom, but Rogers, who was on the side, saw that the atmosphere among the people was a little silent, and opened his mouth to enliven the atmosphere and said:

"Uh-huh! Anyway, for us now, we should be a little more happy this holiday, I remember we should make a meal called 'dumplings', right? ”

He winked his eyes at his good brother, snapped his fingers, and said, "That's right, but before that, there are still two of us who haven't arrived." ”

As soon as Xiao Yuebai's words fell, the doorbell of the house rang again, and Rogers, who realized something, volunteered to open the door with excitement on his face.

When he came back with Bucky's family of three, it was a sign that everyone had arrived, and the Spring Festival in 2040 would begin.

As the sky got late, everyone watched the Spring Festival Gala in China through satellites, and then Xiao Yuebai taught everyone to make dumplings.

When the bell rang at 12 o'clock, under the guidance of Xiao Yuebai, everyone now accepted the New Year's greetings from the juniors, and the adults also gave back New Year's gifts to the children.

After everyone worshiped each other for the New Year, the joy of the day also came to an end, Xiao Yuebai and Kaisha sent them out of their homes in the farewell of everyone.

The day ended like this, Xiao Yuebai and Kaisha returned to the sofa again, although the whole process was very happy, but talking and laughing with everyone still made them spend some energy.

The couple leaned on each other and enjoyed the quiet night on Chinese New Year's Eve.

Suddenly, Xiao Yuebai's phone on the coffee table rang, Xiao Yuebai got up and picked up the phone, opened the screen and saw that a text message had come in.

"Happy New Year, Mom, Dad!" A few simple words really touched them a lot.

The couple did not reply to their son's New Year's message, but snuggled up to each other again after Xiao Yuebai put the phone back on the coffee table.

Because they all know that this is just a moment of quiet that they can enjoy now, and when the sun rises tomorrow, they will be able to devote themselves to the rest of the work again.
