"Eat, Mom and Dad, Aunt Xiaoxiao, Aunt Yahan, Uncle Lu, come on!" Li Qingqing leaned on the door connecting the garden and the house, and shouted inside, the person who was still on the mahjong table.

Li Qingqing didn't care about them, and after shouting, she turned around and looked at the barbecue grill, sniffing with her nose, wow, it's so fragrant! It must be delicious!

Lu Li wore a familiar apron with a Teletubbies pattern, and his hands and feet were smooth and smooth roasting fish swings, chicken wings, chicken legs, beef, mutton, and eggplant with condiments.

"The three of you will save trouble, directly process all the ingredients, bake and eat, who came up with the idea of this Chinese New Year's Eve dinner?" Shen Na walked in front of Li Qingqing, and the adults were already sitting on the stools that had been arranged.

"Mother, what does it mean to be trouble-free? We spent a lot of time and energy on this meal, okay?! If it weren't for the fact that the hot pot base at home was gone, I would definitely be on the hot pot. Li Qingqing didn't look at Shen Na, she stared at the food on the barbecue grill and kept her eyes on it.

"Li Qingqing, your father and I have never treated you badly, your slanderous appearance really makes me wonder if you are my own child." Shen Na looked at her daughter who only had barbecue in her eyes, and she was quite emotional.

"Come on, Mother, where did I inherit my greedy genes, so you better go and wait! Don't smoke you, and don't stain your beautiful clothes today. By the way, if there are ingredients on the table, you can also go and mix some dipping sauces. Li Qingqing unceremoniously demolished the stage to drive people away, and her mother couldn't prevent her from getting in touch with the barbecued meat for the first time.

Lu Li, who was grilling the barbecue, and Li Yunhao, who was playing the barbecue, couldn't help but laugh when they listened to the conversation between Shen Na's mother and daughter, who were a little cute and naïve.

"Alright, let's get it over!" Lu Li handed the plate to Li Qingqing, Li Qingqing lowered her head to feel the fragrance of the food, glanced at the barbecue grill, and smiled and brought a plate of baked food to the adults.

"Qingqing, this barbecue is really good, which of you has the condiment?" Shen Yun took a skewer of barbecue and ate it with relish, and the others also showed delicious expressions.

"Of course it's Lu Li, you eat first, and we'll come over later." Li Qingqing replied with a smile, with a smile on her face, she also contributed, of course she was proud. Then Li Qingqing took a string of small ribs from the table and walked to the barbecue grill while gnawing on it, well, it was really delicious, even better than expected.

"Lu Li, your barbecue is much more delicious than my parents' barbecue, let's eat some while grilling! They just got so much, they drank a little wine, chatted while eating, and they wouldn't have eaten so quickly. Saying that, Li Qingqing also took out three bottles of beer from the basket placed aside and handed them to Li Yunhao and Lu Li.

Lu Li took the beer and raised his eyebrows, "Do you know how to drink?" ”

"Well, yes, weird, isn't it?" Li Qingqing took a sip of beer, she felt that barbecue with red wine was really not a good match, white wine was easy to get on, or beer!

Lu Li raised his head and took a sip, as if inadvertently glanced at Li Yunhao.

"She is a heroine in the middle of the women, when she graduated from high school, her uncle said that he would teach her to drink, and after knowing her own amount of alcohol, if she was having dinner with classmates and colleagues outside in the future, she would not be allowed to drink more than she had drunk. She drank with my uncle very honestly, and as a result, hahaha, my uncle was drunk and unconscious, and she was still a little rational, but then she made a fuss and continued to toast, but she was still drunk, and the big drunk and the little drunk almost lifted the roof, but in the end they were suppressed by Mr. Shen by force. Li Yunhao laughed as he spoke.

Li Qingqing was also laughing, recalling the embarrassment between herself and her father at that time, in life, you have to have some fun, entertain yourself, and entertain others.

The three of them chatted one after another, grilling and grilling, putting the things that were not easy to cook on the grill and simmering slowly, and when they were cooked, they went over to eat and joke with the adults.

"What? Doll pro? Li Qingqing looked at her mother in disbelief.

"Yes, when my father and I were just married and not pregnant with you, I agreed with your Aunt Yahan that in the future, if one of us gives birth to a daughter and the other has a son, we will be in-laws." Shen Na's serious face made her words seem extremely true.

"Dad, do you know about this?" Li Qingqing looked at Li Yang.

"yes, I know."

"Aunt Yahan, is what my mother said true?" Li Qingqing asked again for verification, and the two mothers thought really early.

Lu Yahan smiled slightly, "Really! There was no need for Li Qingqing to ask, Lu Zifeng echoed his wife, "It's good." “

Li Qingqing looked at Lu Li beside him, there was no surprise or joy on his face, "Lu Li, do you know about this?" ”

"Hmm." When I was a child, my mother often said that Aunt Shen Na's daughter was very well-behaved and cute, and she also jokingly said that it was her daughter-in-law when she grew up. Originally, I was going to take myself to meet him, but there was no suitable opportunity, and when I was less than a year old, my mother left City A with me, changed my contact information, and no one told me.

"Well, okay, it doesn't matter, anyway, you can't take it seriously, you and I started discussing it before Lu Li was born, and you didn't ask our opinions, what if the two of us didn't meet each other? And now is the 21st century, you should be free to marry and love. Li Qingqing looked at Shen Na, and really couldn't understand why there was the idea of being a baby kiss between the two mothers, no matter how good the relationship was, it had to depend on the children's own wishes! How can this kind of verbal discussion be taken seriously? The point is, what age are they? Also doll pro.

"Are you eye-catching now?" Li Yunhao suddenly interjected and asked Shen Na what she wanted to ask.

Li Qingqing looked at the gossip of the adults and laughed at the little eyes, and blushed unproductively, "Is this the point?" Quiet? That's not the point, today's barbecue is so delicious, I haven't eaten enough. ”

After speaking, Li Qingqing stopped looking at everyone's eyes, ate barbecue in a sullen voice, and secretly pinched Li Yunhao, when Li Yunhao was about to scream, Li Qingqing stuffed a skewer of barbecue and gave him a look, Li Yunhao dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak.

Lu Li on the side didn't say a word, just got up and went to the barbecue grill to rummage over the dishes on it, sprinkled condiments, and sat back with a plate of grilled barbecue after a while.

The sun and the moon exchanged time and position, the stars filled the sky one by one, two, three, and countless stars, Li Yang took out the fireworks that had been prepared before, lit the fire, and ran away quickly, "咻~嘭" "咻~嘭"......

The fireworks are short and extremely magnificent and beautiful, very beautiful fireworks, very lively New Year.

After eating almost, the adults went back to the house, Li Qingqing took out the "Fire Tree Silver Flower" from the box and lit it, the beautiful color and light of the fireworks were reflected in her pupils, she smiled like a child, and took out the "fairy stick" and some small fireworks to distribute to Lu Li and Li Yunhao. Li Yunhao took it happily, but Lu Li pursed his lips, turned his head slightly, and said in a faint voice, "No, naïve." ”

"Lu Li, can you respect these fireworks? Where are they childish? Adults talk about theirs, and we're going to play ours. Li Qingqing said it right.

"I mean you two are naïve." Lu Li glanced at the sister and brother who were happy and wanted to play with fireworks.

"Lu Li, this is not called childishness, this is called childishness." Li Yunhao retorted, didn't give Lu Li a chance to speak, and directly pulled Lu Li up from the stool, and the three of them played in the small garden.

Lu Li was like a stake, Li Qingqing and Li Yunhao stuffed the fireworks to Lu Li and lit them, Lu Li just stood motionless with the "fairy stick", Li Qingqing and Li Yunhao had a good time.

Li Yunhao looked at Lu Li, who was silent, and his eyes were following Li Qingqing's figure openly and secretly, eh, Lu Li, if your EQ is half as high as your IQ, it is estimated that you are already justified, and you still have to look at me.

"Li Qingqing, you let Lu Li play with you for a while, and I'll go to the living room to eat some fruit." Li Yunhao slipped into the house as he spoke.

"Is it a pig? Also eat! Li Qingqing muttered as she walked over to Lu Li, who was standing still, and danced the fireworks in her hand, "Lu Li, don't be straight face for the New Year!" Laugh at it! Wasn't it okay before? ”

Lu Li still didn't speak or laugh, just quietly watched the fireworks in his hand burn and bloom, and then extinguished.

"Oh, I see, did what my mother said about the baby kiss make you unhappy? Didn't you know? Are you serious, but you have a girl you like, so you're distressed? Speaking of this, Li Qingqing inexplicably felt a little blocked and astringent.

Lu Li moved his gaze to Li Qingqing, there was a look in her eyes that she couldn't understand, could it be that she was right, thought about it, squeezed out a smile, turned around and stood side by side with Lu Li, and lit a firework, "Oh, adults are talking and playing, you don't have to take it too seriously, I don't pay attention to it, which girl do you like, just be brave and chase it." ”

Why shouldn't she be serious? Don't take it to heart? Doesn't she like herself? But where did she look like she didn't care?

"Li Qingqing, do you like me?" Lu Li didn't open his mouth at this time, and as soon as he opened his mouth, it was a little difficult to resist.

Li Qingqing took a deep breath, looked at the fireworks that were about to burn out, and thought of her guess, she wanted to say to Lu Li I don't like you, there is no need to have any burden, even if there is, it is only between friends.

Before he could speak, Lu Li said, "I know you like me, I like you like me." ”

Li Qingqing's fireworks just finished burning at this moment, and when she heard Lu Li's words, the fireworks stick fell from her hand, and she turned to look up at Lu Li, her eyes were a little puzzled, I like you like me, how should this sentence be broken? Does she want to deny Lu Li's words?

A gust of wind blew, Lu Li raised his hand and stroked Li Qingqing's hair, hooked the corners of his lips, and smiled softly, "Because I like you, Li Qingqing, I like you." ”

Did Lu Li confess to himself? Is it so sudden and straightforward? Her heart was beating so fast and fast, Li Qingqing's hand unconsciously placed it on the mouth of her heart.

"Why don't you seem to be happy when you hear that we have a baby parent? Is it shyness? Lu Li withdrew his hand, lowered his head and looked at Li Qingqing, the expression on his face was like a big bad wolf seducing the little white rabbit, with a smile and gentleness, as well as a hint of coaxing.

"What?! I just don't think this kind of thing is reliable, I, I just like you, what's wrong? Do you have to be together if you like it? What if you don't like it one day? Li Qingqing met Lu Li's gaze directly, but the more she spoke, the quieter she became.

Like why not together? Why bother thinking about whether you don't like something when you like it?

A light laugh escaped from Lu Li's mouth, and Lu Li grabbed Li Qingqing's arm and encircled her into his arms, "Li Qingqing, I will always like you." ”

Li Qingqing was stunned when she fell into Lu Li's arms, her heart seemed to have missed a beat, and she didn't know how to react, Lu Li's words entered her ears low and shallow but very clear, and she wanted to say something in her throat but it seemed that she couldn't speak, Lu Li seemed to know that she would react like this, and her hand gently patted her back.

This is different from any hug in the past years, with joy, anticipation, and shyness in my heart...... This embrace is very comfortable, this is like, Li Qingqing has always known that when she met again after Lu Li returned to China, she was not only familiar with Lu Li, but also excited.

The fat and awkward Lu Li and the tall and handsome Lu Li seem to overlap together, he has always been very good to her, he is to her, he is rarely mentioned but never forgotten, no one knows, when she was young, she had thought about protecting this boy for a long, long time, but now he seems to have become a man who can face the wind and rain alone. Although this confession was a little different from what she had imagined before, she was still happy.

Li Qingqing's hands slowly placed on Lu Li's back, she obviously felt that the hand on her back stopped moving, and the body of the person holding her was obviously stunned for a moment, Li Qingqing spoke, "Lu Li, I like you too, I like me, you want me to like you all the time!" ”

Lu Li felt Li Qingqing's movements, listened to the smile and playfulness in her words, and tightened his embrace, under the gorgeous fireworks, in the starlight in the sky, this hug seemed so beautiful, it had nothing to do with anyone or anything in the world, just because of the two hearts that liked each other.

"It's cold outside, let's go back!" Lu Li wanted to hold Li Qingqing's hand.

Li Qingqing dodged Lu Li's hand, "That, Lu Li, is still a little restrained at home, I'm afraid that my mother will beat us." His eyes suddenly glanced at a bag of things on the ground, "Lu Li, wait for me." ”

I saw Li Qingqing take out a few sweet potatoes from the bag and put them in the charcoal fire to simmer and roast, the roasted sweet potatoes in winter are absolutely delicious.

Clapped his hands, got up and looked at Lu Li, smiled, and there seemed to be a clear spring in his eyes, "Okay, let's go back to the house!" ”

Lu Li walked up to Li Qingqing, glanced at the direction of the charcoal fire, and said to Li Qingqing, "Teacher Shen won't beat us, because our fate was set by her and my mother." Raised his hand and pinched Li Qingqing's face, and continued, "Li Qingqing, don't want to let go of my hand in the future, let's go!" ”

Lu Li walked forward, he knew that Li Qingqing was just a little embarrassed, the time was still long, and their future was also very long, Li Qingqing followed beside him, with a faint smile on her face, she knew that Lu Li was not angry, but just chose to understand, this year is very special.

When I returned to the house, no one seemed to pay too much attention to Li Qingqing and Lu Li, the adults were playing poker at this time, the Spring Festival Gala was playing on TV, Li Yunhao was sitting on the sofa eating the peeled fruit, and when the two of them came in, the corners of their mouths couldn't help but hook up a smile, and quickly pressed it down, pretending not to know anything, and pointed to the fruit bowl on the table with a fruit fork, "Taste the fruit, it's sweet." ”

Tonight is Chinese New Year's Eve, to observe the New Year, wish the elderly at home a long and healthy life, and a good new year.

I don't know when, everyone sat on the sofa, a large family ate New Year's goods and Li Qingqing's baked sweet potatoes together, looking at the Spring Festival Gala, the bell was about to ring at twelve o'clock, and the three little ones only received thick red envelopes from adults, especially Li Qingqing, although Li Qingqing lost the afternoon competition, but Li Qingqing kicked Lu Li at the beginning.

Seeing Li Qingqing holding a big red envelope, saying beautiful words, and coaxing the adults to smile, Li Yunhao whispered next to Lu Li's ear, "You can still make money by beating you?!" Lu Li, you let me beat me twice! ”

Lu Li glanced at Li Yunhao angrily, "You are not Li Qingqing." "You're not her, I won't release water, let alone be soft, and my parents won't give you more big red envelopes.

Fireworks and firecrackers burst out in unison as the New Year's bell rings, and the new year has arrived.

When she was sleeping, Li Qingqing found that there was a red envelope on her desk, and when she opened it, there was a very delicate and beautiful necklace and a beautiful little card, the pendant of the necklace was a very cute little lamb, and the tail of the lamb was a small "L", and the card was written on it - I will keep you happy and worry-free in the years to come, Li Qingqing, happy new year.
