Chapter 108: Bonfire

"Xiaodi, let's go, it's time for us to meet the adults."

At this time, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon, and the rain had already lightened, but it was still dripping, Chen Xiaodi sighed softly, and some didn't want to leave.

Seeing Chen Xiaodi moving her steps step by step, Bai Ye smiled and held her hand and pulled her to stride towards the bus stop.

"I still have to face it, and I will always be with you."

Chen Xiaodi turned his head to look at Bai Ye, and the two laughed together.

Half an hour later, the two children arrived at the place, the adults were already a little tired from singing, Chen Xiaodi's cousin Quku was empty, and seeing Bai Ye enter the door was like seeing a life-saving straw.

"It's coming, hurry up and continue, let me sing if you're not there, my throat is already smoking."

The cousin pushed the two of them to the front, and he moved himself into the corner, as if to hide himself. Bai Ye greeted the adults with a smile, in addition to his parents and Chen's mother, Chen Xiaodi's aunt, and his uncle's family were also there.

There were still some songs that hadn't been sung in the song list, and Bai Ye chose a few of Chen Xiaodi's favorite songs to add to the list, and then walked to her and sat down.

"What songs did you choose?"

"The most listened to songs on your list lately."

Chen Xiaodi smiled softly, grabbed a few popcorns and put them in Bai Ye's palm.

Even in such a noisy environment, Bai Ye's voice was still very clean and gentle, Chen Xiaodi listened attentively with his chin propped up, with a shallow smile on the corner of his mouth. Two hours later, everyone set off to the hotel, and Bai Ye and Chen Xiaodi took a few more steps to get the cake they ordered for lunch.

During the banquet, Chen's father drank two more glasses of wine, and began to talk nonsense again, but Chen Xiaodi's uncle is also a person who drinks a lot of wine, and the two of them are talking together, and the food in the bowl is cold and has not moved.

"Hurry up and eat the vegetables, don't talk so much"

Chen's mother put some more vegetables in Chen's father's bowl and asked him to talk less and eat more.

"That's it, just eat well, and do all that mess."

Chen Xiaodi's aunt also felt a little annoyed, glared at the two of them, and said with a look of disgust.

Chen Xiaodi's grandparents have been dead for many years, so now on my mother's side, my uncle and aunt are the eldest in the family, and my aunt's temper is a little rushed, so as long as it is not a big deal, the family will follow her words, so as not to affect the relationship between the family.

"You don't talk much about me, eat your food"

"I'm asking you to eat more, can you talk full?"

"Let you stop talking too much, is there no money, take it, don't bother me."

Chen's father took out his wallet and took out a few hundred yuan and threw it in Chen's mother's hand, turned his head and chatted with Chen Xiaodi's uncle again, he couldn't drink too much wine, he liked to drink, and he liked to talk nonsense after drinking too much, the family was already surprised, and the Bai family's parents were helpless and shook their heads gently.

"It's really not easy for Xiaodi to grow up to where she is today."

Bai Ye was also worried, and turned his head to look at Chen Xiaodi, but saw that she was just burying her head in eating and didn't say anything.

"Xiaodi, let me tell you, your father and I were already cadres when you were so old, and you know when you get a salary, if you are so unproductive, you will have to sweep the streets in the future."

"Brother-in-law, what are you talking nonsense, no matter what we Xiaodi do, it is impossible for us to sweep the streets."

"Many of the people who sweep the streets now are college students."

Bai Ye is a very quiet and gentle person, rarely loses his temper, but when he saw Chen's father pointing at Chen Xiaodi and talking, he felt angry, but he didn't say anything, so he could only eat sullenly.

Looking at the other people at the dinner table, the Bai family's parents were also a little unhappy when they heard this, Chen's mother scolded Chen's father in a low voice, Chen Xiaodi's aunt directly expressed her dissatisfaction, and her aunt just smiled and didn't say anything.

Bai Ye remembered that Chen Xiaodi once said that when she decided to take the postgraduate entrance examination, some people in her family said that girls should just graduate from college, and there was no need to have too high a degree, anyway, sooner or later they would have to get married. At that time, Bai Ye was still thinking, what age is this, how can anyone still have such an idea, but now it seems that there is nothing strange, if a person is unwilling to accept new things, then it is useless to say more.

Bai Ye looked at Chen Xiaodi beside her, her head was buried deeper, her whole person was trembling slightly, Bai Ye put some vegetables in her bowl, only to find that she was trying to control her emotions, but tears were still rolling in her eyes.

"Xiaodi, let's go, let's go home."

At this time, Bai Ye couldn't bear it anymore, and gently said a word in Chen Xiaodi's ear, and left the hotel with her.

"Uncle and aunt, let's go back first, you eat slowly."

Watching the two children leave, Chen's mother finally couldn't bear it anymore, and put down her chopsticks and counted Chen's father.

"You have never encouraged your daughter, you always say things that look down on her, so how can she feel at ease and do what she wants to do"

Outside the door of the hotel, Chen Xiaodi's tears finally couldn't hold back and fell down violently.

"Xiaodi, you should go back to the provincial capital with me in a few days, I'll go and tell my aunt"

Chen Xiaodi didn't answer, she kept shaking her head, wiping her tears and walking in the direction of the gymnasium. Now that the rain has stopped, as is customary at the Bonfire Festival, a bonfire will be lit in the square in front of the gymnasium in a little while.

"When are you still worried about that bit of rent, and the exams are aside, aren't you tired of living like this every day?"

Chen Xiaodi still didn't speak, and walked forward in a daze.

"Does that count as my salary in the future?"

Seeing that Chen Xiaodi still didn't react, Bai Ye strode forward and blocked in front of her.

"What the hell do you want?"

Bai Ye said angrily, he had never been so angry.

"I want to see the campfire."

"Alas"

Bai Ye sighed softly and accompanied Chen Xiaodi to continue walking, the colorful flags above his head waving in the wind, neat and cheerful.

"Come and stay at my house in a few days, and when I come back, I'll talk about what I'll do after September."

"Hmm."

Ten minutes later, the two came to the square, the huge brazier had been placed in the middle of the square, a few thick wooden pieces were set up in the brazier, the smell of grease wafted in the air, and the young man with the torch was ready, and he could light the bonfire as soon as the time came.

At eight o'clock in the evening, a bright bonfire was lit, and the people around the brazier cheered and danced to the music, for which it would be a sleepless night, and many would party until dawn.

"I'll definitely get in"

Chen Xiaodi said, turning his head to look at Bai Ye, with the dancing flame in his eyes.

"Well, it will"

Bai Ye looked at her gently and said firmly.
