Chapter 158: Gifts

Rebirth 158

"You're mistaken, my birthday has passed."

After Zhao Qingyu said this coldly, he hung up the phone without hesitation.

Xia Zimo held the microphone and heard a short "beep" sound inside, and it took several seconds before he slowly put down the phone.

"Boss, how much?"

"One piece two."

"Then get another bag of bread."

Xia Zimo took the jam-filled bread and slowly walked back while eating, he was puzzled, obviously he was very sure that this day was Zhao Qingyu's birthday, why did it change.

And listening to Zhao Qingyu's tone, he didn't seem to be very happy.

She seems to be real...... Suddenly, I hated myself.

And Zhao Qingyu, who was doing the question in front of the window at home, hated it so much that he had nothing to call her!

Her brain was confused for a while, full of how he knew her birthday and all kinds of thoughts of revenge, and it took about half an hour to slowly calm down.

After barely finishing the math problem, the time was almost twelve o'clock, and she lay down to rest after a quick wash, feeling a little tired for the first time.

Fortunately, after a few hours of sleep, Zhao Qingyu's spirit returned to the same as before the next day, and when she arrived at the classroom in the morning, she happened to meet Xia Zimo.

The latter saw that her eyes lit up, and she opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but Zhao Qingyu didn't even look at him, and walked directly in front of him.

Xia Zimo lowered his eyes and silently walked back to his seat.

Many students bring food to eat in the classroom every morning, and when Zhao Qingyu came to her seat, her classmate Zhang Yan was still eating hot dry noodles.

Seeing her coming, Zhang Yan swallowed what was in her mouth in a few bites, exhaled and said, "Your chili pepper is so spicy, it's so exciting, I like it so much." ”

"Huh? When did you go to buy noodles, I didn't even see you. ”

Zhao Qingyu has been eating at the door with a bowl these days, and there is no place for her to stand in the store.

"I asked Yang Na to bring it for me." Zhang Yan said, and continued to bury her head in eating, although the weather in May was still relatively cool in the morning, her cheeks were crimson from eating, and the tip of her nose was full of beads of sweat.

Zhao Qingyu knew that Yang Na was a day student, and she arrived at school early every morning, and she met the latter several times packing hot dry noodles to eat in the classroom, but she didn't expect to help Zhang Yan bring one this time.

"Why don't you let me bring it for you?" She squeezed into her seat from behind Zhang Yan and asked curiously.

"Because you're too late, I'm afraid I won't have time to eat."

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Zhao Qingyu is helpless, because she studies too late every night, she tries to get up in the morning, and then goes to the store to eat, and occasionally helps when she is too busy, basically every time she goes to the classroom, she will ring the preparatory bell if she doesn't sit down for two minutes.

However, the class teacher is not very strict in eating breakfast, or it is very loose, students can eat breakfast in the classroom, as long as it is before the official bell, and they can sit in the classroom and eat for ten minutes between the preparation bell and the official bell.

Therefore, there is often a special smell of hot dry noodles in the classroom, as well as the smell of steamed buns and cakes.

As soon as the teacher arrives for self-study in the morning, he will ask the students sitting by the window to quickly open the window to breathe.

Zhao Qingyu sat down, the classmates behind her hadn't come yet, the window was still closed, she leaned over and stretched out her arm, wanting to open the clasp of the window.

A large, knobby hand took a step ahead of her and gently pulled the clasp off, then pushed open the window.

Zhao Qingyu turned his head and saw that it was Li Feiyu, who had a special smell of morning dew on his body, he didn't look at her, opened the window and retreated, and then strode towards the back of the classroom.

She looked at Li Feiyu inexplicably as she sat down in her seat, then took out a piece of chewing gum and threw it into her mouth and chewed it, that expression made Zhao Qingyu think of one word: unruly.

After retracting his gaze, Zhao Qingyu turned around and sat down, and pulled out the English book from the book placed in front of the desk.

Except for the homework she has to do, she basically doesn't bring any books home at night, after all, the materials and extracurricular books at home are almost as much as at school.

Halfway through the preview, she found a somewhat unfamiliar word, the explanation in the English book was not very detailed, so she was ready to take out the English dictionary she had specially bought from her desk and check it.

The English dictionary is placed in the outermost part of the desk, and you can reach it by opening the lid halfway through the desk and reaching in with your hand.

However, this time, Zhao Qingyu didn't touch the dictionary, but touched something cold and very smooth.

Confused, she lifted the lid of the table a little more, and was surprised to find that there was something inside the table that did not belong to herβ€”a beautifully wrapped gift box.

"Huh? What is this? Who gave it to you? ”

Zhang Yan next to her somehow saw it, and immediately put up the English book, covered her face and asked.

"Uh, it's nothing, someone else bought it and put it here for the time being." Zhao Qingyu hurriedly opened the gift box, took out the English dictionary below, and then quickly closed the lid of the desk.

Zhang Yan let out a somewhat disappointed "ah" and said, "I thought it was a boy who sent you." ”

Zhao Qingyu: "...... How could it be. ”

It's not that Zhao Qingyu wants to deliberately conceal it, although this kid has a positive outlook and a sense of justice, she still knows something about Zhang Yan's "big mouth".

The last time she was sick and asked for leave, and Li Feiyu's incident, she was "cared for" by several classmates who were not very familiar with her.

And Zhang Yan is still a boarding student, with more than a dozen people in a dormitory, huh...... Let's talk casually in the evening, and it is estimated that the fact that she received a gift from a boy will be known soon.

Although she doesn't care much about these gossips, sometimes she talks too much, and it still causes some trouble.

It's a hassle to go through the trouble of explaining.

It's better to casually tell a white little lie.

It's just that Zhao Qingyu found a small detail that she cared about when she was in a self-study class.

That is, she locks her desk every night, how did this gift run into her desk inexplicably?!

She couldn't figure it out, and it was impossible for her to take the initiative to ask others, so she had to secretly observe Xia Zimo's expression after class.

This guy had called her the night before, and when he saw her in the morning, he also looked like he wanted to talk to her.

She wanted to go over and ask Xia Zimo if he put it and how he put it, but she was worried that if it wasn't someone else, wouldn't it be self-inflicted if she asked in the past......

So, this gift was lying in Zhao Qingyu's desk until school time, when she put it in her schoolbag and took it out.

Before leaving the teacher, she deliberately observed Xia Zimo, and found that the latter glanced at her before leaving, and felt more and more that this thing was given by him.

She wanted to chase after her and ask, but after thinking about it, she still didn't do anything, and returned to the store alone with her schoolbag.

The store was very busy, she put down her schoolbag and came over to help as usual, and when there were a little fewer people, Zhao's mother asked her to read and rest first.

At noon, Zhao Qingyu found that the food this day was very rich, there were fish, duck and beef, she asked curiously, Zhao's father and Zhao's mother were embarrassed to tell her that they were too busy and forgot her birthday.

It was Wang Lei who reminded them this morning, and they remembered, so they came to make up for it, and after eating, they gave Zhao Qingyu twenty yuan of pocket money, and asked her to buy some delicious food by herself.

Zhao Qingyu was helpless, in fact, she herself deliberately ignored it, but she was reminded several times to remind her of this incident.

She really doesn't want to celebrate her birthday, probably because she has experienced that kind of moment, every time she celebrates her birthday, it is like a huge alarm bell ringing in her ears and echoing the spell of "you are no longer young".

Even if the person who gave her birthday every time at that time was her most trusted and favorite ex-husband, Xia Zimo, she couldn't eliminate that anxiety and helplessness.

Although she is now reborn into high school, she will never forget that feeling.

And her parents now give her a lot of pocket money every week, which is much better than in her previous life, although she has used all this money to buy various study materials.

In contrast, her younger brother Zhao Qingfeng is not as good as her, and basically has no other pocket money except for dinner money every day.

This time, Zhao Qingyu originally wanted to return the money, but Zhao's mother happily asked her to put it away, saying that she could keep it to buy some books and books.

Yes, no wonder she is not soft every time she gives her money, it turns out that she is urging her to study hard from the side.

After eating, Zhao Qingyu helped wash the dishes together, in addition to washing his own rice bowls, there were also mountains of dishes and chopsticks for business.

First, the grease stains are washed off with warm water diluted with dish soap, then rinsed with clean water, and finally boiled in a pot of boiling water for sterilization.

Originally, Zhao's mother thought that the last step was very troublesome, but Zhao Qingyu told her that this step was not only for conscience, but also for customers.

Although everyone's awareness of prevention is still very backward, the common sense that boiling water can be disinfected is basically still known.

They put the used porcelain bowls in a place where everyone can see outside, boil them with hot water that is constantly warming, and salvage them after a period of time, although it is very troublesome, but it can make many people form a concept invisibly.

The hygiene of Xinglong Noodle Restaurant is very good.

Yes, that's the concept.

It can also make the students who come to eat with peace of mind.

After hearing her say this, although Zhao Mu muttered a few words in a low voice, she felt very reasonable in her heart.

This time, Zhao Qingyu took out the twenty bowls that were the first to be cleaned, and put them in the sterilizer for high-temperature sterilization, and there were more than thirty behind, and when she turned around and was about to continue to take them, she was hugged by Wang Leiquan behind her.

In the short few seconds when the two passed by face to face, Zhao Qingyu smiled at him: "It's hard work." ”

"No ......"

Wang Lei carefully put the bowl into the sterilizer, lowered his head and whispered.

"By the way, how did you know my birthday?"

Zhao Qingyu remembered that her mother said that Wang Lei reminded them, she thought about it, and she didn't seem to have told him about it.

"Ah, that's last time...... Li Feiyu ...... when he was here."

Wang Lei explained in a low voice, Zhao Qingyu immediately remembered that during the May Day holiday, Li Feiyu came to the store several times, and kept asking about her birthday, and then he really asked about it.

"Then you didn't tell anyone, did you?" Zhao Qingyu asked hesitantly.

"Huh? No, I don't. ”

Wang Lei looked up at her, his delicate and slender eyes were full of doubts.

Zhao Qingyu coughed deliberately and said, "It's nothing, I just asked casually." ”

As soon as her words fell, Zhao Qingfeng's excited voice sounded in the store.

"Sister! What is this? It looks so pretty! ”

Zhao Qingyu turned her head and found that Zhao Qingfeng had opened her schoolbag at some point, and she was holding the gift box that she hadn't had time to open yet!

"Put it down, someone else put me here, and I'll have to pay it back later." Zhao Qingyu hurriedly walked over, snatched the gift box back, and stuffed it back into the schoolbag.

"Hmph, my sister is a liar! There was a small sign hanging on the back of the gift box, which said it was for her! Zhao Qingfeng immediately turned his head and said to Zhao's mother, who came over.

Zhao Qingyu was taken aback, why didn't she notice this.

Sure enough, when Mother Zhao heard Zhao Qingfeng say this, she walked over with a strange face and asked, "Xiaoyu, are you really someone else giving it to you?" Are you a classmate? Boys or girls? ”

In just a paragraph, there were problems in it, and Zhao Qingyu said with a headache: "Mom, don't listen to my brother's nonsense, the sign behind it is not written to me, this is just a blessing that others hang on it." ”

"Really?"

"Really!"

"Then why should someone else put it with you? Could it be that putting you here will make the gift smell a little better? ”

Zhao's mother's soul question almost choked Zhao Qingyu, but she is also a person in her thirties after all, and she only needs to turn her mind a little to find a seamless excuse for this kind of question.

"What, I'm right, I gave this gift to someone, but I haven't had time to give it out yet."

"For whom?"

Zhao Qingyu's eyes glanced at Wang Lei lightly: "Give it to him." ”

Mother Zhao followed her gaze, suddenly realized, and said with a dry laugh: "It seems that which girl is embarrassed to send it in person, right?" ”

Wang Lei was still listening to their conversation quietly with his ears pricked up, but the protagonist of this topic came to his head inexplicably.

This caught him by surprise.

Father Zhao walked out from behind, and also joked with a smile: "It shouldn't be Wang Yanli, I think that little girl seems to be very enthusiastic about Wang Lei." ”

"Ahem, Dad, don't talk nonsense about some things, how embarrassing it would be if people heard it." Zhao Qingyu hurriedly spoke.

"Okay, I won't talk about it, then you have to hurry up and return the gift to Wang Lei, maybe people are still looking forward to what kind of gift it is."

Zhao Qingyu was stunned, so he had to take out the gift box and stuff it into Wang Lei's hand.

Father Zhao took out part of the sterilized bowl and put it on the table behind him, walked up to Wang Lei and said with a smile: "Wang Lei, open it up and see which little girl gave you a gift." ”

Zhao Qingyu silently glanced at Wang Lei, who was holding the pink gift box helplessly, looking at Zhao Qingyu, and then at Zhao's father and mother and Zhao Qingfeng with a curious face.

"Forget it, let people open it when no one is there, you old man is making fun here."

Mother Zhao relieved Wang Lei's embarrassment, he hurriedly put the gift box aside, and quietly glanced at Zhao Qingyu by the way, who took advantage of everyone's lack of attention and winked at him.
