After receiving Mu Mu and Auntie, looking at the faces of the mother and daughter, there was something vaguely wrong.

After placing the luggage, when getting into the car, Yun Nuo borrowed her aunt's mobile phone to call Zhou Chongyue, saying that she was ready to return and now go directly to her grandmother's house.

God knows, how reluctant Zhou Simu was when she heard this, she hurriedly covered her face with her hand and gave her sister a look in the front rearview mirror.

Nan Qiao glanced at her: "What's wrong with going to your grandmother's house, you can't eat enough or you can't sleep well?" ”

“.”

The behavior just now is undoubtedly covering his ears and stealing the bell.

Zhou Simu silently lowered his hand, not daring to make any more moves.

When I went to my grandmother's house, I couldn't avoid another all-night long conversation tonight.

I planned to go abroad before, but I really didn't expect that Lin Qingye would go soon, and he was still in the same place as her.

But no matter how innocent she is, she can't stand her own mother, so she has to think about it.

Ms. Nan will definitely suspect her motive for going abroad in the first place, and even, Bao Buqi is already thinking about countermeasures at this time, how to let her recruit from the truth.

Along the way, the atmosphere in the car was sometimes silent, sometimes strange.

can guess that it should be related to meeting Lin Qingye on the plane.

Yun Nuo sighed in his heart, and only concentrated on driving the car, not saying much.

Sending Mu Mu and Aunt Xiao to her grandmother's house, she helped carry the luggage upstairs together, sat down for a while, and then got up to leave.

"Sister, why don't you finish lunch before leaving?" Zhou Simu's eyes were full of distress signals.

After a while, my grandmother came out of the kitchen and said that she had made her favorite crab yellow bean curd today, and asked her if she was in a hurry, and she was about to get to dinner.

Yun Nuo did have something to do, so he made an appointment with Jiang Yan.

But for the sake of a dish, it's not good to break the appointment with someone.

Seeing her embarrassment, her grandmother smiled and said, "Go ahead, anyway, tomorrow on Chinese New Year's Eve, you and Dr. Zhou come over early." ”

Hearing this title, Zhou Simu was a little surprised.

"Grandma, what did you just call the third uncle?"

After being reminded by his granddaughter, the old man reacted for a while.

is really too deeply rooted in Zhou Chongyue's past identity, so that he suddenly became his grandson-in-law, and he was inevitably a little unaccustomed to it in a short period of time.

In fact, you can call it however you want, Yun Nuo doesn't care, and Zhou Chongyue doesn't care.

The difference is that shouting 'Chongyue' can, to a certain extent, make someone look a little younger.

The place to eat at noon is at a Chinese restaurant near the outer ring.

Today, Jiang Yan specially made up for the birthday gift last month, and secondly, he thanked Yun Nuo for his help and care in the hospital during the last hospitalization.

Approaching the end of the year, there were too many things in the department, and finally the day before Chinese New Year's Eve, I took advantage of my free time to ask people out.

At the dining table, Yun Nuo peeled the shrimp and asked, "Sister Xiaoyan wants to go back to Xuancheng for the New Year?" ”

This has the meaning of knowingly asking.

After all, the parents at home are in Xuancheng, and it is impossible to be so busy that they don't even go back for the Spring Festival.

But by mistake, she really asked.

Jiang Yan said that he plans to spend the New Year on the spot this year, feel the Spring Festival atmosphere in Nanshi, adapt to it earlier, and finally settle down here in the future.

Settle.

Somehow, hearing this, Yun Nuo's shadow automatically flashed in his mind.

It's really not her malicious brain supplement.

Indeed, once a person has a preconceived idea, it is difficult to correct it later.

Besides, looking at Uncle Liang's posture, he was already ready to chase people back.

However, what does Sister Xiaoyan think?

Sometimes, a girl's instinct to look at a girl is accurate.

Yun Nuo felt that compared to Uncle Liang's inevitable, Sister Xiao Yan seemed a little still.

This kind of stillness is really quiet.

A woman, no matter how good the man is doing until she intends to start a relationship again, is actually useless.

However, Lu Zheng once said: "Don't underestimate your Uncle Liang, he is no less than a mad dog who is sick." ”

Friends know each other best.

Yun Nuo had a hunch that Uncle Lu's words were definitely not exaggerated.

Coming out of the restaurant, the two walked to the parking lot together.

Jiang Yan didn't drive today, and she knew that Tanyuan was completely in the opposite direction from her residence, so she was idle anyway, so she planned to walk to the nearby and take the subway back.

Coincidentally, before Yun Nuo got into the car, he saw a black SUV driving in at the entrance in front of him.

The distance is not far, and it can be seen that the person in the driver's seat is Liang Jingxuan.

The car drove slowly, and the glass window was half-lowered, revealing the man's handsome side face.

"Uncle Liang?"

Yun Nuo's eyes were full of inquiry.

Was it really a coincidence, or was it premeditated?

The answer doesn't matter.

Liang Jingxue asked, "You shouldn't be on the way." ”

It's an affirmative tone.

Before Jiang Yan could speak, the latter raised his chin and said, "Get in the car, I'll send you." ”

"No, I'm too hungry, take the subway back to eat and eat, and you and I don't get on the way."

Yun Nuo interjected at the right time: "Sister Xiaoyan, you may not know that Uncle Liang's residence is only one street away from your house. ”

？？

The air is still.

Receiving the death gaze from Jiang Yan, Liang Jingxue showed an innocent face: "Don't get me wrong, I swear, it's just a beautiful coincidence." ”

Coincidence, beautiful.

Jiang Yanpi didn't smile, turned around and left.

The black SUV starts and follows it closely, staging a car chase.

Yun Nuo stood in front of the car door, staring blankly at the scene in front of him, and fell into a daze of thought.

-

In the afternoon, Dr. Zhou returned from the hospital and reached out to hand over a new pair of mobile phones when he was changing his shoes at the entrance.

Yun Nuo took it in surprise: "I originally thought that I would go shopping after eating, and besides, how do you know that I want this brand?" ”

"Once in my car, I heard you and Mu Mu mention it."

"When?"

Zhou Chongyue thought for a few seconds and gave a time, "In May of the first half of the year, on the way to the Vosges Mountains." ”

I have to admire, Dr. Zhou's memory is really good.

Yun Nuo sighed while opening the mobile phone box: "Sometimes it's really a coincidence, it seems that everything you remember in your heart can happen as promised." ”

"That glutinous can make some wishes in advance."

Well?

Zhou Chongyue rolled up her sleeves and went to the bathroom to wash her hands, and when she came out again, she looked at her and said with a smile: "For example, I want to change to a new computer next year, and I want to change it the year after next—"

didn't let him continue, Yun Nuojiao interrupted with a smile: "It's almost the New Year, I can't say this, it's very accurate, I don't want a new computer." ”

Zhou Chongyue slowly came over and hugged her, pointed the tip of her nose with a slightly cool finger, and whispered softly: "Actually, you can change anything, but you can't change it." ”

"What?"

"Pillow man."

The girl raised her eyebrows.

Listen to the difference in the wording.

It's the pillow person, not the boyfriend.

Yun Nuo raised her little face and deliberately found fault and asked, "You mean, you can only sleep with me in the future?" ”

"Otherwise, who else do you want?" The big hand around the waist is clenched.

It was a little itchy, which made her laugh.

"Child, our child, are you not allowed to do so?"

Zhou Chongyue's expression softened.

thought that at least he should let go, but he threw out a sentence: "If you have no opinion, you can leave it to the nanny to take care of at night." ”

She froze, staring at him in a daze.

Zhou Chongyue chuckled and pinched her face, "What's wrong." ”

Yun Nuo shook his head: "No, I just suddenly found that after listening to what you just said, I actually agreed for a moment." ”

Zhou Chongyue didn't speak, waiting for her later words.

She said: "A few days ago in the obstetrics and gynecology department, I overheard a remark that when a new mother, for one reason or another, wants to hand over her newborn child to someone else to take care of, it shows that her heart is actually not ready to be a mother. ”

When this sentence landed, the man smiled lowly in response to her.

Her eyes rolled slightly, a little confused.

Zhou Chongyue stroked her hair with her hands, and her voice was as gentle and clear as her movements.

"Nuo Nuo is only 22 years old this year, and he has enough time to complete his life plan, don't take the small accidents that may occur in the future as an obstacle to your progress, let alone feel pressure, at least until you are not ready, you don't have to have such concerns."

Yun Nuo was itched by what he said, his head arched in front of his chest, and he said sullenly: "But just like my sister-in-law said, when my work is officially stabilized, you will be thirty-eight, and in the blink of an eye, you will be almost forty." ”

"Forty, very old?"

The girl hurriedly denied: "I'm not old, but I'm a little reluctant to go." ”

"What's the point of not going?" Zhou Chongyue lowered her head and kissed her forehead, sighed lightly and tightened her arms, "The purpose of marrying you is not to have children, but to use legal means to tie you to your side and love you well, that's all."

Children, it may be the icing on the cake, but it is by no means a necessity, and Nuonuo should always remember this, which is also my attitude. ”

"Can other men do what you do?" Yun Nuo asked movingly.

"I don't know, but in this life, I may not have the opportunity to investigate other men."

She smiled in agreement.

-

The next day on Chinese New Year's Eve, around ten o'clock in the morning, my uncle rushed over from Linjiang.

Half an hour later, Yun Dong's car also slowly drove into Jing'an Jiayuan.

The goal is to start the meal on time at 11 o'clock.

Today's chef is Zhou Chongyue, Yun Nuo and Auntie are hands-on.

Of course, Ms. Nan's role is obviously not of much value, but fortunately, after her uncle arrived an hour early and rolled up his sleeves to join, the painting style of the entire kitchen was instantly standardized a lot.

Zhou Simu leaned against the kitchen door the whole time, laughing at his mother without any desire to survive.

Nan Qiao glanced at her angrily: "Standing and talking doesn't hurt your back, you have the ability to show your hand and see if you can swallow today's reunion dinner." ”

"Don't underestimate people, although you can't make hard dishes, you can still scrambled eggs with tomatoes."

"Then you ask, who wants to eat your tomato scrambled eggs today."

Hum.

Zhou Simu looked around, "Sister, do you want to eat?" ”

"I don't want to." Yun Nuo shook his head.

Forehead.

After being embarrassed for two seconds, Zhou Simu aimed at Zhou Chongyue, who was putting the fish in the pot.

"Third uncle, tomato scrambled eggs, do you like it?"

The range hood and the sound of oil were mixed together, Zhou Chongyue didn't understand too much, and only said: "There are a total of sixteen dishes today, and if there is one more, grandma's table can't be placed." ”

Yes?

Nan Qiao and Yun Nuo laughed beside them.

Zhou Simu glared angrily, and Zhou's father interjected at the right time: "Go to the living room to chat with your grandmother and uncle, don't stay here, block the light." ”

“.”

was completely ignored, everyone was very busy, and they didn't have time to pay attention to her.

watched silently for a while, it was too boring, and a certain person who blocked the light had to be wronged and left.

The clock went to eleven o'clock, all sixteen dishes were served, and the large round table was set up in the dining room, which was a little crowded, but it was such a small place, but it was the most rare and most satisfying in recent years.

Grandma sat on the throne, and her kind face radiated the joy and brilliance of the festival. Next to him is Yun Baiyuan, wearing a daily gray casual suit, compared to the usual suit and leather shoes, today it is particularly friendly, and the coat is sporty, and the whole person seems to be ten years younger.

Then there was the aunt's family, the uncle sat next to him, and finally, Zhou Chongyue was in the middle, and the left side was finished by Yun Nuo and Zhou Simu.

A large family, happy and happy, should drink wine, eat food, wait for twelve o'clock at noon, the old town bell rings, outside the firecrackers one after another, Yun Dong stood up with a wine glass, everyone who received the signal also raised their glasses in unison, in a laughter and firecrackers, Zhou Simu shouted in his voice: "Happy Chinese New Year's Eve!" Cheers! ”

Yun Nuo rubbed his buzzing ears and clinked glasses with a smile.

In the afternoon, taking advantage of the sunny day, the two granddaughters took their grandmother to the lakeside park for a walk, and Yun Dong arranged for an assistant to contact a local photography company in Nanshi to take a few family photos on Chinese New Year's Eve.

It is practical to hire a professional photographer, according to everyone's wishes, just go directly to neighbors or passers-by and take pictures with a camera.

But Yun Dong is a person who pays attention to rigor and precision in his work, since he wants to shoot, he has to shoot well, how can passers-by have the patience to adjust the focus over and over again to judge the sensitivity, and make a final decision, before and after only half an hour, all the places and people are found.

"Come, everyone's expressions are as relaxed as possible, naturally, and imagine to your heart's content all the beautiful, fulfilling, and happy pictures you have experienced in this life."

The photographer in front guided the atmosphere, and below where the lens could not see, Yun Nuo's heart moved, and he reached out and gently hooked the sleeves of the people around him hanging by his side.

Zhou Chongyue smiled at the corner of her eyes, turned her gaze slightly to the girl's implicit cunning eyes, grabbed her restless little hand, and gently wrapped it in her palm.

The moment the photographer pressed the shutter, he looked at her without distraction.

Later, when Zhou Simu looked at the photos, he screamed excitedly every time he browsed this one, and he was always curious, the third uncle looked at her sister, but her sister looked at her feet, what was under her feet?

Asked several times, Yun Nuo kept silent, saying that the shoelaces were loose.

Zhou Simu said: "Do I believe it? ”

"Then what do you think it is?"

"You and the third uncle must be secretly poking and poking hands, don't admit it, I guessed wrong and I did a handstand for three days."

Yun Nuo glanced at her: "What if you guess right, the reason why I came here secretly is just to take care of the feelings of a single person in the family." ”

Single? Who?

Forehead.

Zhou Simu touched her nose, well, the clown is herself.

In the evening, the group drove to the suburbs to set off fireworks.

The night breeze blew, Zhou Chongyue held the lighter flame with his hand, handed it to the lead of the fireworks, and the light blue fire scorched the lead, and it soon burned.

Zhou Chongyue stood up, took a few steps back, and wrapped her long arms around the clouds standing beside her, and a few beams of fire flew straight into the ink-like night sky, and then colorful broken light bloomed, and the ink-stained night was as bright as day for a while.

Zhou Simu hurriedly took out his mobile phone to take pictures and cheered.

In the hustle and bustle around her, Zhou Chongyue handed her a red envelope on a gilded cardboard, and the words 'New Year's bag' on the paper came into view.

Yun Nuo took it in his hand and looked at it, "Did your boyfriend give it, but why are there three copies?" ”

The stars in the sky were shining, reflecting the gentleness and depth of his side face, and he only heard him say: "One of them is for Mu Mu, and the other is to make up for last year." ”

Last year.

remembered the red envelope she refused to accept at the Yufu Bay Pier last year.

At that time, the reason for refusal was that only the elders were charged with New Year's money.

While pondering, Zhou Chongyue said softly: "And I have to correct it, what am I you now." ”

Well?

"It should be my fiancé, or, Nuo Nuo called those two words in advance, I would feel more honored."

Those two words

Yun Nuo smiled and turned his head away with a blushing cheek.

Looking up at the fireworks in the night sky, I feel so beautiful and beautiful.
