Chapter Forty-Nine: Love, not showing off is also a waste
In order to avoid the recurrence of the tragedy of going home for the New Year with the same card point as last year, Shirakawa Xiaoting unanimously decided to go home early, and after a few days of vacation, she bought a ticket after avoiding the flow of students home.
Shirakawa was still happy to choose things for the elders, and asked the owner of the breakfast shop downstairs to bring two bottles of pure puree that he said was grain wine. One bottle for Xiao Ting's father, and one bottle for his old man.
A few days after returning home, Xiao Ting said that she was really unaccustomed to the emptiness of the villa, and she had to ask Bai Chuan to arrange a place for her to live at his house, or she would have to live back in her old house when she was a child.
Bai Chuan couldn't survive it, saying that Xiao Ting would not be happy, but he still renovated his room seriously, laid floor leather, bound the plastic ceiling, and scraped the wall again. Of course, the original single bed was too crowded, or Xiao Ting's own choice of double bed, a few simple sets of furniture.
The most difficult thing was to get warm, and the two had the most serious disagreement.
Shirakawa said: I can't live at home for a few days, and I buy it as a waste.
Xiao Ting said: We don't live there, your parents can also use it! You are so unfilial!
Bai Chuan said: They are reluctant to use that, the electricity bill is so high!
Xiao Ting said: You won't pay the electricity bill! It's just not filial, and it's still picking the door!
Of course, under Xiao Ting's "unfilial hat", Bai Chuan bought two in one go, one in his own house and one in his parents' house.
Xiao Ting's parents are still busy, and when most of the people in the country are eating melon seeds, the busier they are, and Xiao Ting didn't see them at home a few times when they went home.
Bai Chuan's parents are naturally happy, it is strange that the child does not receive a girlfriend after twenty, Xiao Ting is not outside, and she lives in with peace of mind, and has become the focus, or a key object of protection, anyway, the person around Xiao Ting is never herself, or sister, or brother's girlfriend asks long and short questions, knocking melon seeds, and the sugar that is prepared for the New Year in advance has been replaced with the milk candy that Xiao Ting likes to eat.
"People are more popular than dead people!" Bai Chuan kept knocking with melon seeds, staring at Xiao Ting, who had taken off her shoes and was chatting happily with her mother on the warmest kang.
In addition to the excitement of the New Year in the countryside, it is crowded, this kind of crowding is a warm room crowded with a large number of people, the kang in the north, basically every household in the countryside, it is also natural to become the most crowded place for the New Year, women are generally sitting on the hot kang, men, because of the decline in social status, can only sit in Maza, around a small table drinking tea, of course, what needs do the people on the kang, the people under the kang must be served in place.
"Give!" Bai Chuan knocked himself for a long time before knocking the melon seeds in a small glass and handed them to Xiao Ting.
Xiao Ting was not polite, took it, poured it into her mouth a few times, and handed the empty glass back to Bai Chuan with a smile and said with a little girl's expression: "I still want to eat!" ”
"You're a city pig! Also eat! Shirakawa said indignantly.
"Sister, you see him murdering me!" Xiao Ting took Bai Chuan's sister by the arm and said coquettishly:
"Let you knock, you knock, bring so much nonsense!" Shirakawa's sister, who was sitting on the edge of the kang, made a gesture to kick Shirakawa.
Shirakawa, who was completely defeated, could only redo it back to Mazha and continue to work. made the whole family laugh more than once.
Xiao Ting also went home, of course, when her mother was sure that she was at home and wanted to cook for her daughter. Or be sure you can be at home for more than four hours.
Bai Chuan went a few times, except for the time when she sent the things she bought in J City, Xiao Ting didn't blame Bai Chuan, she knew that the decoration of this song villa was luxurious, and she wouldn't get used to it, not to mention Bai Chuan, compared to the two homes, she said without disobedience, she still liked Bai Chuan's one, I believe that no one likes to face a cold empty house every day, even if it has heating.
Zhuo Xiaoyun's dining table is very large and long, obviously there are only three people eating, and the distance is more than the diameter of a table in an ordinary person's house.
"How are you and that one named Shirakawa!" Sitting opposite Zhuo Xiaoyun, her brother Zhuo Xiaotian took a knife and fork and cut the steak elegantly.
Zhuo Xiaoyun's father, who was sitting in the main seat, seemed to be very interested in this topic, took a sip of red wine, wiped his mouth with a napkin, stopped the next follow-up actions, and looked at his baby daughter with a smile.
"What...... What do you think! Not so much! Zhuo Xiaoyun fiddled with the food on the plate, and was not interested at all, but when he heard his brother's question, he seemed to be interested again, lowered his head and pretended to be very busy cutting the steak with a knife and fork, but he didn't put it in his mouth.
"After the New Year, I may have to go to J City......" Zhuo Xiaotian looked at Zhuo Xiaoyun's reaction with a smile in his eyes.
"What! What are you going to J City for? Zhuo Xiaoyun's expression seemed to be covering up something, hiding something in J City! For fear of being discovered.
"I'm going to see if I can make my sister make that big ...... What would it be like to be a person who has changed so much! Zhuo Xiaotian paused in the middle, as if he wanted to find a more appropriate word to describe his current sister.
"I ...... He's busy! I don't have time to ......" After speaking, he felt a little wrong, his work should be said to be completely in the hands of his brother, including whether he was busy or not.
"I can keep him busy!"
"Ah......" Zhuo Xiaoyun wanted to end the topic quickly, and wiped his mouth with a napkin in a panic and said anxiously: "I'm full......" turned around and left the table as if he had escaped.
Xiao Ting's heartless realm has reached the extreme, and in the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Xiao Ting's father has to ask him to pick him up before he is willing to go back.
The two families were so close to each other, they all knew each other, Xiao Ting's father should say that he agreed very much with Xiao Ting and Bai Chuan being together, and when he came to pick up Xiao Ting, he also brought a lot of things, which was a bit like the feeling of coming to the door in advance to recognize relatives, anyway, it was very harmonious and harmonious.
Xiao Ting didn't forget the moment she opened the car door and got into the car, she had a "life and death separation" scene with Bai Chuan in the movie, which provoked Bai Chuan's family who came to see him off with a smile, and Bai Chuan was embarrassed and wanted to find a bottom hole to get into.
"How to pinch!" Xiao Ting held a dumpling wrapper, wrapped it with a large spoonful of meat filling, and stared at her mother's hands skillfully wrapping dumplings, one, two, five...... Xiao Ting hasn't pinched one yet.
"First of all! In this way, pinch it vigorously...... "Xiao Ting's mother forgot that this is the first time she has taught Xiao Ting to make dumplings."
"Ao ......" Xiao Ting learned stiffly, pinched hard, and the meat filling was squeezed out of the skin.
"You start with the minced meat...... Add a little less! Xiao Ting's mother laughed when she saw Xiao Ting's clumsy movements!
......Xiao Ting didn't care that her mother laughed at her stupidity, she was very much like a primary school student who humbly asked for advice, asking a university scholar how much one plus one is equal.
In the taxi, Xiao Ting kept holding the insulated lunch box in her arms tightly, for fear that a pothole on the road, or a sudden brake by the driver, would break the dumplings that had taken her three hours to get out of the pot.
Chinese New Year! It's all the same, New Year's greetings, New Year's greetings, or those old-fashioned projects, but Bai Chuan unusually participated in a small gathering of friends in the village this year, of course, not like in the city, what kind of high-end restaurant to choose, but in a little tyrant home decorated by the buddies who are now "mixed" in the county.
A table of dishes, full of new clothes, mixed into "characters" are all suits and leather shoes, sitting on the top, the average one! They are all chic in casual clothes, sitting in the middle, and finally sitting at the bottom of the table where the protagonist is not the protagonist, and it is a little crowded, all of them don't speak, wear simple clothes, lean back, or lower their heads, just eat a dish in front of them, can't say half a sentence, or don't want to say it at all.
Bai Chuan is also a person who has been to a big city, although he has no taste of local tyrants, and his dress is still very fashionable by Xiao Ting, but he doesn't like to talk very much in his bones, he neither eats nor speaks, just looks at the high-talking suits and leather shoes, the casual clothes that are romantic, and the simple friends who listen to the sound effects when they eat.
That's what it looks like, a table dinner lacks the innocence of childhood, the original child king may be the person who is eating and not talking, and the original little brother may already be the person who sits on it and talks about it. As long as you have money, or power. No matter your age, you may be sitting in the sky. I think I'm looking up to it.
The smoke was a bit big, and Shirakawa really couldn't taste the essential difference between the eighty-one boxes of cigarettes and the five-piece boxes of cigarettes he usually smoked, but it was only a material difference.
Shirakawa's cell phone rang at the right time, and Shirakawa leaned over before pulling it out of his pocket.
"Why, still use this phone! Now they have all changed to touch screens...... "I don't know who jokes about Shirakawa, who still holds a motorcycle and needs a mule to pull a mobile phone that is not very fashionable."
Bai Chuan just smiled, raised the phone of his phone, and motioned for himself to go out to answer the call!
Xiao Ting sat next to Bai Chuan, and no one at the table spoke anymore, just watching Xiao Ting eating the dishes on the table very unceremoniously, and commenting from time to time, that dish, that dish was not as delicious as Bai Chuan's.
Bai Chuan looked at a box of dumplings in the insulated box in front of him in a daze, and opened the meat filling and didn't know where to go, or the poor boiled pancake with less meat filling, of course, there are a few very good, but the size difference is a bit big.
"Eat it hot! I did that for three hours! Or your favorite pork filling! Xiao Ting picked up one for Bai Chuan with chopsticks, handed it to Bai Chuan's mouth, and motioned for Bai Chuan to open his mouth.
Bai Chuan, who was originally small and transparent, suddenly became the protagonist of the whole table, showing money and power, which is not as good as Xiao Ting and Bai Chuan showing affection on the spot.
Although Bai Chuan regretted a little, he told Xiao Ting that he was there! But...... Love is not showy, it is also a waste.
