Chapter Twenty-Three: There Are Many Rights and Wrongs in Reorganizing Families
"Uncle Qi, I just went to the bathroom. As soon as I went out, Qi Hao became a little girl, and I was stunned when she became a living person. ”
"This is your Aunt Qiao's daughter Ding Cangyu, who came to Beijing to celebrate the New Year with us. She's also in her third year of high school, and you should be the same age. ”
He Ran arched his hands and said happily: "It seems that good things are coming, I will definitely let my father make a big red envelope." ”
was teased by the juniors, Qi Jiesheng was still a little embarrassed, he said: "You kid is actually joking with me, you can chat with Cangyu, stay and eat together." ”
He Ran didn't refuse, and sat beside Ding Cangyu like a familiar man and talked.
"Ding Cangyu, this name is quite good, how old are you?"
"Eighteen."
"We're the same age, and you're also taking the college entrance examination in June?"
"Hmm."
"Which school do you want to go to?" There are a lot of schools in Beijing, so I can recommend a few for you. ”
Ding Cangyu was silent, how could he meet a talker again, and he was still familiar.
"How many points did you score in the final exam?"
“630。”
Every sentence was extremely brief, and Ding Cangyu's emotions were still tense, and he couldn't talk to him abruptly. "Damn, good student, Beijing hukou?"
Ding Cangyu shook his head: "No." ”
Hearing this, He Ran, who was still excited just now, suddenly frowned.
"It's a pity, if you have a Beijing hukou, you can go to Tsinghua University in minutes."
Ding Cangyu never knew that there were these conveniences in the Beijing hukou, but she was a little curious.
Asked: "What is the cut-off score in Beijing, which is lower than that in other places?" ”
"Of course, last year it was more than 640, which is several tens lower than that of other places, otherwise why would so many people have sharpened their heads and have to get a hukou to Beijing. Moreover, Beijing's famous schools love to recruit locals, and local students account for a small half of the ...... every year."
During the chat with He Ran, Ding Cangyu learned for the first time the magic of the Beijing hukou, and it turned out that being born in Beijing had so many benefits. He Ran's topic was right in Ding Cang's mind, and she knew a lot of college entrance examination policies and trends from him, which she had never heard of. Ding Cangyu gradually unloaded his heart, and the nervousness disappeared. Like old friends who have known each other for a long time, the two of them chatted until a table of dishes was served before stopping.
Halfway through, Qi Hao came back with a Coke, He Ran seemed to regard this place as his home, he squeezed Qi Hao to the other side of the sofa, and he sat with Ding Cangyu. Qi Hao rolled his eyes at him, and sent more than a dozen text messages in a row, each with only two words: "Traitor." ”
In that era when there was no WeChat and a dime a text message, Qi Hao showed up to teach what wasting was.
"It's time to eat, Cang Yu will wash your hands first, Qi Hao He Ran, and the two of you will also go to wash your hands."
Qi Jiesheng looked at the three young men in front of him, and his eyes were full of fatherly love. He brought Qiao Aifei's specialty dishes to the table, braised carp, pot wrapped meat...... Ding Cangyu saw it in her eyes, it was all a familiar taste, and she couldn't help but miss it.
At the dinner table, Qi Jiesheng sat next to Qiao Aifei, and Ding Cangyu wanted to sit on the very edge, but He Ran took the seat first, and she had to sit between the two big boys, feeling very awkward. Qi Jiesheng kept picking up vegetables to Ding Cangyu: "Cangyu try it, your mother specially made a table of hometown dishes, and this is also Beijing cuisine, if you want to eat that one, don't be polite." ”
Ding Cangyu saw some strange things, including internal organs and waist flowers, and she asked, "What is this?" ”
"Explode three things, you can't get used to it. Otherwise, you can try this, stir-fry the vegetables. ”
The careful He Ran noticed that Ding Cangyu's face was embarrassed, and he sent a chopstick vermicelli sprout to Ding Cangyu, and Ding Cangyu thanked him with relief.
"What's this called, it's your hometown dish?"
He Ran sandwiched a piece of lean meat wrapped in flour, and the golden color looked very good.
"Pot wrapped meat."
He Ran took a bite: "It's so delicious, I haven't even eaten it." ”
"Eat more, He Ran, just treat this place as your home."
Qiao Aifei enthusiastically put a whole plate of pot-wrapped meat in front of He Ran, lest she not be thoughtful enough.
"I'm not polite when I came to your house, thank you, Aunt Qiao."
He Ran smiled and sandwiched another piece of chicken stewed mushrooms, and he applauded again and again: "It's delicious, Aunt Qiao, your craftsmanship is so good." ”
"If you like it, come often, and Auntie will make it for you."
He Ran, who was familiar with him, quickly integrated into the family chat, but Qi Hao was quiet and did not speak. He saw that He Ran and Ding Cangyu were chatting happily, and his heart was full of jealousy. The good buddy was actually plotted against the enemy camp, and he wanted to knock He Ran and make him not forget whose friend he was.
"He Ran, when are you going home? My sister is here today, but there is no place for you to live. ”
Qi Hao, who had been silent, finally spoke, but as soon as he spoke, Ding Cangyu, whose emotions had just eased, became nervous again.
Ding Cangyu silently thought about what he meant by this, did he think He Ran was too enthusiastic about himself, or did he accuse Sang of scolding Huai for occupying a place in the Qi family. It is said that reorganizing family relationships is the most complicated, and Ding Cangyu can be regarded as a teacher.
"Qi Hao, I haven't finished talking to your sister yet, don't rush me away."
"Your sister, don't take the opportunity to scold me."
Your sister has a scolding element in Beijing dialect, and Qi Hao instinctively fought back when he heard these two words. But Ding Cangyu didn't know this, thinking that Qi Hao was scolding himself. Her whole body began to break out in a cold sweat, and the rice bowl held in mid-air paused for a long time, not knowing whether to continue eating or put it down, and the atmosphere in the room became extremely embarrassing.
Qi Jiesheng stopped Qi Hao and Meng Ran's bickering in time, and he taught: "Qi Hao, it's a bit polite to be a brother's speech. ”
A stranger broke into his family, and Qi Hao was full of grievances. Qi Jiesheng was angry at himself for no reason, which made his depressed mood even worse, he couldn't suppress his anger, and immediately replied.
"I said nothing, I didn't say anything."
"She is your sister, and they will be a family in the future, so don't talk nonsense."
The father and son are tense for a word, and the big war is coming. If Qiao Aifei didn't come forward to stop it, I was afraid that Qi Hao would resentful Ding Cangyu even more. She put down her chopsticks with a smile and stopped the two from arguing.
"Now young people have their own set of words, let's learn these mantras slowly, otherwise we won't go together. Eat and eat, you like the three things the most", Qiao Aifei smiled and gave a piece of waist flower clip to Qi Hao.
Qi Hao was still angry, and the dishes in the bowl hadn't been touched for a long time. Ding Cangyu's mood was more complicated than Qi Hao's, and in addition to being angry, there were a lot of complaints, Qiao Aifei, who was domineering in her hometown, became inferior when she came here, and she felt that her mother had come to the wrong place.
Ding Cangyu wanted to push open the door and leave, but this was Beijing, where could she go if she left, Ding Cangyu at the dinner table was like sitting on pins and needles.
