Chapter 624: A Lively Year
Opening the door again in confusion, Lin Qingqing was surprised by Xu Yanran and Jiang Shang also standing outside the door. "Yanran?" She couldn't help but fuss. "Why are you here?"
Hearing this, Xu Yanran rolled her eyes unhappily. "What do you mean? Are we so unwelcome? As she walked inside, she talked to Lin Qing poorly.
Shaking his head, Lin Qingqing said no. "Not really." She hastened to explain. "Why aren't you welcome? Just because ......" Before she finished her words, Xu Yanran saw Jiang Nuan sitting in the living room.
"Nuan Nuan?" Xu Yanran exclaimed in surprise. "Why are you here too?" She excitedly took Jiang Nuan's hand and said.
Sighing helplessly, Jiang Nuan replied to her with four words. "It's hard to put into words." It is estimated that it will take half a day to talk about this. "Didn't you go home with Jiang Shang to meet your parents? How did you come to Qingqing here? She asked suspiciously.
Glancing at Jiang Shang on the side, Xu Yanran had a feeling of guilt on her face. "There are still some things that the company has not yet dealt with, and it will be today when I am done. Thinking that it would be tomorrow to rush back anyway, I simply came to Qingqing's house for a reunion dinner. Anyway, Mr. Ou won't mind having more of our chopsticks, right? After saying these words with a smile, Xu Yanran turned her head to find Ou Yuanlan.
"Yuanlan is hanging lanterns on the balcony!" Lin Qingqing found Xu Yanran's eyes sweeping around, and couldn't help but remind her loudly.
Shaking her head with emotion, Xu Yanran sighed. "Qingqing, you still have a way. Such a noble Mr. Ou actually asked you to instruct you to hang lanterns. ”
These words suddenly made Lin Qingqing embarrassed. "Where is ......," she smiled coquettishly.
It just so happened that at this time, Ou Yuanlan came over from the balcony. "It's about today's lunch, and even I can't do anything about it." He said helplessly with a cold face.
Everyone laughed, and even Jiang Nuan couldn't help laughing. "Mr. Ou, don't you mind if we have a meal today, right?" Jiang Shang said heartily.
"Help hang the lanterns together and you will have food." He pointed to the pile of curtains and lanterns on the coffee table.
made an OK gesture, and Jiang Shang stood up with the pile of things. "No problem." He didn't twist it, and helped Ou Yuanlan do it together when he picked it up.
Seeing that the two men were moving, Lin Qingqing also had to start preparing for today's reunion dinner. "Sisters, let's move, and each of you will make a specialty dish." She said, wincing.
Hearing this, Xu Yanran immediately raised her hand and surrendered. "Please let me go, I'm okay with anything else, but I'm really not good at cooking." She's a non-fingerist* at home, so it's too challenging for her.
"Okay." Lin Qingqing nodded, and then began to assign work. "Nuan Nuan will help me cook, Yanran, you can wash the vegetables or something." The three of them were just about to move their positions, but the doorbell rang again.
Turning his head to look at Jiang Nuan and Xu Yanran, Lin Qingqing was obviously confused. "Who else is coming?" She really couldn't guess this time.
Pushing her, Xu Yanran said to her, "Hurry up and take a look." She urged.
The third time I opened the door, there were Su Mu and Tian Tian standing outside the door. "What's wrong with you?" This time, Lin Qingqing was already a little crying and laughing.
At that time, the group of people one by two rejected her proposal to have a reunion dinner together, but now one by two appeared here, it seems that it is really fate.
Smiling awkwardly, Su Mu pointed to Tian Tian beside him. "You ask her." He held his forehead with a headache.
Tian Tian, who was silent with her head down, finally raised her head, she looked at Lin Qingqing and smiled, and then explained helplessly: "When I arrived at the airport today, I realized that I forgot to bring my passport." It's too late to rush back to get it, so I'll just come directly to Sister Qingqing's house. ”
After listening to her explanation, Jiang Nuan and Xu Yanran on the side also poked their heads out. "Alright, come on in, it's going to be a lively day." Xu Yanran said happily.
Because he was a little angry in the Bai family, Jiang Nuan didn't seem to be very interested. On the contrary, it is Xu Yanran, she seems to be in a good mood today.
"Sister Nuan Nuan? Sister Yanran? Why are you there? Su Muxian was puzzled.
The two smiled and replied in unison: "It's hard to say." With that, everyone laughed.
Su Mu was sent to help Ou Yuanlan and Jiang Shang decorate the room together, and the remaining four female dependents gathered in the kitchen to be busy with the reunion dinner at noon.
"Let's boil the rice balls." Xu Yanran proposed. "It's great to be reunited in the new year." As she spoke, she opened the refrigerator and tried to find the instant rice balls.
Tian Tian on the side also proposed. "Otherwise, let's be a fish, there will be more than enough every year." Although it is the most common dish, when everyone says this, it has a little more meaning.
Nodding, Lin Qingqing also felt that these words made sense. "Then Yanran went to cook rice balls, Nuan Nuan and I made fish." After that, she added. "I remember the sweet and sour fish made by Nuan Nuan was a must."
Jiang Nuan, who was still in her own thoughts, seemed particularly absent-minded. "Huh? Oh. She replied perfunctorily, not at all like the usual lively and cheerful her.
"Sister Nuan Nuan, why do you look unhappy?" After all, Tian Tian is young and has no taboo words. knew that Jiang Nuan was unhappy, but he directly picked it out.
* shook his head, and Jiang Nuan replied coyly: "No, it may be a little tired." She pulled the green vegetable in her hand, and a good green vegetable turned into a thousand holes in her hand.
Quickly saved the green vegetables in her hand, Lin Qingqing patted her hand. "My aunt, if you pull this green vegetable any longer, it will be bald." She exaggerated the analogy.
When the doorbell rang for the fourth time, the four people in the kitchen looked at each other. "It can't be a ghost, right? Everyone is here, huh? Lin Qingqing was puzzled.
Jiang Nuan, who had just been educated, took the initiative to ask. "I'll open the door." She wanted to be alone for a while.
Looking at her back as she walked out, Lin Qingqing made a silent gesture to Tian Tian. "Nuan Nuan is not in a good mood today, and Bai Luo is a little unpleasant, don't ask." She lowered her voice and explained to the two of them.
Before the whispering in the kitchen ended, Jiang Nuan's voice came from the door. "Get out! What are you doing here?! Hearing this, she was a little emotional.
was so troubled by her, Lin Qingqing, Ou Yuanlan and others all appeared at the door. As soon as he saw Bai Luo standing by the door, Lin Qingqing immediately understood why Jiang Nuan was so excited just now.
"Nuan Nuan, I'm sorry." Bai Luo didn't seem to care at all, he walked in slowly, and then took Jiang Nuan's hand.
