When he came out of the compound and saw the picturesque scenery and the sunset all over the sky, Zhou Qiao's heart moved, so he made a request. said he wanted to take a photo with the big guy.

The big guy naturally happily agreed.

Then, Zhou Qiao stopped a passer-by and asked the other party to help take a photo. Because if you take a selfie, the effect is not good.

When the other party saw that the boss was there, he was naturally happy and said, "I am very happy to serve." After looking at Zhou Qiao and them several times, he said in his heart that this is the young man that the boss took to eat? It seems that I went late, and I didn't expect to bump into it on the road.

So, the big guy, Zhou Qiao, and the twin sisters stood together and came to one. It is a relatively precious photo.

After the passer-by returned the phone to Zhou Qiao with a smile on his face, he bowed slightly to the minister, said hello, and went to eat.

Zhou Qiao didn't know that the passerby he grabbed casually and asked the other party to help take pictures was of a very high level, similar to the county magistrate of their county. And he has grown so big, he has lived in his hometown for more than 20 years, and he has never had the opportunity to meet the county magistrate in reality, let alone communicate at close range.

If you don't know the emperor, you don't know the official size, let alone such an important department.

The sunset in the imperial capital is quite rare, and the minister still has important things to do, so Zhou Qiao didn't bother, and he rushed to the Summer Palace again with his twin sisters.

Because the sunset and sunset of the Summer Palace are a must. When I went the day before yesterday, I didn't meet it, so I'm going to take a look today.

After arriving, sure enough, the mountains around Kunming Lake are reflected in the lake water dyed red by the sunset and sunset, which is quiet and beautiful, like a dream.

In particular, the seventeen-hole bridge connecting the east bank of Kunming Lake and Nanhu Island, if the Changhong lies on the blue waves, the dragon dances Kunming.

In fact, there are many beautiful attractions in the imperial capital that need to be seen on specific occasions. For example, the Forbidden City.

The Forbidden City on a sunny day is naturally good-looking, but if you can meet the snow, it will be covered in silver overnight, and every brick and tile will be the color of winter, and the feeling of going through hundreds of years will seem to be the return of the years during the Ming and Qing dynasties.

How so?

When it snows in the Forbidden City, the post-95s may think of "Step by Step", while the post-90s and post-80s generations think of "The Desire of the Golden Branch".

This is a classic palace fighting film of TVB, Deng Cuiwen, Li Zi, Charmaine Sheh, and Zhang Keyi, representing the goddesses of TVB in that era.

Especially in the Cantonese version, many people learned Cantonese by watching TVB TV dramas back then.

The scene of Anqian and Kong Wu falling in love in the snow is a famous scene. The soundtrack "Aria" is also extremely classic. The climax of the whole drama is in the Forbidden City in winter, under the heavy snowfall, which is poignant.

Early the next morning, Zhou Qiao took her twin sisters to the provincial capital by flight, and then took a taxi directly from the airport and returned to her hometown in the countryside.

Big bags and small bags, and two big boxes, it's really inconvenient to not have a car. It's impossible to take a bus and then transfer to a bus.

From the airport to his hometown, it is only more than 100 kilometers, and a taxi costs four or five hundred yuan, which is a matter of tens of dollars for him now.

He doesn't live in China for a long time now, and it's not that he can't afford to buy a car, it's just that it's not cost-effective.

The point is, he doesn't have a driver's license yet. Elena and Ava's driver's licenses were tested in the United States, and when they returned to China, they needed to go through some formalities. Just two or three weeks, there's no need.

His hometown, called Zhuhai County, is picturesque, and the real land south of the Yangtze River, especially the Zhuhai Sea all over the mountains, is a must, and it is the filming location of many movies.

In addition to the big bamboo sea, there are also specialties such as white tea and pecans.

If you say that spring is not late, I will arrive in the real Jiangnan.

It's a pity that it was a cold winter moon, not a picturesque spring.

The parents have already cleaned up two rooms, one for Zhou Qiao and one for the twin sisters, and there are few rooms at home, so the twin sisters can only be crowded.

The bedding and sheets were all washed and dried, although they sent a lot of things back, but this time Zhou Qiao came back with a large bag and a small bag.

If you come back empty-handed, it won't look good, anyway, Zhou Qiao is strong now and can carry it.

As soon as I got home, I gave everyone a souvenir.

In addition to parents, there are also neighbors.

Some relatives and friends who live close also rushed to hear the news, after all, they haven't seen each other for more than a year, and they have just returned from abroad.

Zhou Qiao brought some chocolates and special candies and snacks from abroad this time.

A large part of domestic chocolate is cocoa butter, that is, fake chocolate. But what Zhou Qiao brought back was by no means a synthetic substitute for cocoa butter, all of them were made from genuine cocoa beans.

Zhou Qiao's father, Zhou Xiaode, and mother Zeng Xiuye, although they had long heard that their aunt had adopted a pair of twins, it was the first time they saw Elena and Ava in reality.

Elena and Ava had very sweet mouths, and shouted "Mom and Dad" with Zhou Qiao, and rolled up their sleeves when cooking, helping to wash vegetables and wash rice, coaxing the old couple even more.

Although the language barrier, the two girls have not yet practiced Chinese at home, but just shout "Dad" and "Mom", just these two words, it kills everything!

Zeng Xiuye sighed: "My Qiao'er has grown so big, and the parents who shouted at the top of the year are not as much as these two girls who scream for half a day!" ”

Zhou Qiao retorted: "They won't say anything else, they will call people." ”

"Cut~, you can say so much, I haven't seen you shout!" Mother pouted.

Zhou Qiao was very helpless, shrugged his shoulders and said, "The meat is not numb~"

I'm so old, and I'm still "mom mom" all day long, are you my mom boy?

At this time, Elena and Ava came over to call "Mom" and "Mom" again, Zeng Xiuye glared at Zhou Qiao angrily, and said, "Look at how sweet the little girl's mouth is!" ”

turned around and smiled at Elena and Ava: "Ouch, my two little darlings, can't you peel that bamboo shoot?" Come, come, I'll teach you! ”

Zeng Xiuye didn't need a translator, with two foreign girls, she was in full swing. Anyway, Elena and Ava speak English, she speaks Chinese, each speaks her own way, and with gestures, it doesn't affect the general meaning.

Zhou Qiao was disgusted by his old mother, so he went outside to play.

The twin girl's mouth is sweet, of course he knows, he has tasted it!

During the meal, Zhou Qiao took out the good wine he brought back from the imperial capital and had a few drinks with his old father.

The twin girls are skillful in using chopsticks, and they are full of praise for their mother's craftsmanship, and they don't know if it's really delicious or fake delicious.

The old couple is a little regretful, why are they Zhou Qiao's cousins with such two beautiful foreign girls? You said that if there was no such relationship, it would be nice to marry Zhou Qiao casually!

Although it is said that there is no blood relationship, the ethics in the countryside are here, and it is not easy to overcome. Otherwise, it will be gossiped about somewhat.

As everyone knows, Zhou Qiao has already succeeded, and it is still the two of them together.

When she was sleeping at night, Elena sent a message to Zhou Qiao and asked him to come over.

Zhou Qiao was scared to death and warned them to be honest at home, because the sound insulation at home is not good. Wait for a few days to stay in a hotel when you go out to play, and then you can go crazy as much as you want.

The next day, the village chief and the village party secretary came to visit.

To Zhou Qiao's surprise, one of these two people was his elementary school classmate Fan Zhiyong, and the other was his high school classmate Zeng Haitao.

Zhou Qiao studied medicine for five years, but Fan Zhiyong and Zeng Haitao were only junior college graduates in three years.

After the two graduated, because of their family relationship, they returned to the brigade as village officials, and they have been working for more than three years! Their village has five natural villages under its jurisdiction, and the scale is not small or small.

And because of the developed economy, there are many factories and highways nearby, all of which use the land in the village, and there is actually a lot of oil and water.

"I've wanted to come and visit you for a long time, but I haven't had a chance. I'm finally seeing you today. How is it, Zhou Qiao, remember my brother? Village chief Fan Zhiyong said.

Zhou Qiao laughed, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Of course I remember." The deepest impression is that when I was in the third grade of primary school, we had a good time for a while, and you even brought me zongzi to eat. Then one time, while chasing and fighting, I accidentally injured your foot, and I always feel sorry. ”

"It's about elementary school, Chen sesame rotten grain, if you don't say it, I forgot it, haha." Fan Zhiyong waved his hand and said heroically.

In fact, this kid has been heroic and righteous since he was a child. Back then, Zhou Qiao injured his foot, bloody, if it was changed now, the other party's parents would not be able to come to the door, and the two families would quarrel, apologize, compensate for medical expenses, etc.

But at the time, nothing happened.

Looking back afterwards, Zhou Qiao felt that Fan Zhiyong's parents were amazing, because, at that time, his family was ordinary, and Fan Zhiyong's parents were already "big shots" in the town.

After the incident, Fan Zhiyong came to class on crutches the next day, and he didn't mention compensation or blame, but still talked and laughed with Zhou Qiao. The other party's parents never showed up from beginning to end.

It's impossible to say that you don't feel sorry for your son. There may be some people whose pattern is family heirloom.

"Come on, come on, Zhiyong, Haitao, come into the house and drink tea!" Zhou Qiao greeted the two warmly.

There is no need for Zhou Qiao to make tea herself, Elena and Ava have learned the "tea ceremony", when the twin sisters come over to make tea gracefully, I go, Fan Zhiyong and Zeng Haitao's eyes are straight!

It was Zhou Qiaoqing who coughed a few times before he brought the two of them back to their senses from "sluggishness" and "fantasy".

"These are your twin cousins? Do you have a boyfriend? "My Fair Lady, what a gentleman, Zeng Haitao took the lead and couldn't hold it back and asked.

Zhou Qiao smiled and said, "I'll help you translate." ”

So I said to Elena and Ava.

Elena and Ava looked at each other and smiled, then said in unison, "I'm sorry, we already have a boyfriend!" ”

This sentence is said in Chinese, and there is no need for Zhou Qiao to translate.

This was something that Elena and Ava had thought about before they left for the United States, and the two of them had practiced specifically to cope with today's scene.

At that time, they chatted with Stephanie, Park Xiuzhu, Kim Hee-jin and others, and when they talked about going to China, Park Xiuzhu said, you are so beautiful, when you go to China, there must be many people who are in love with you and will confess to you, maybe there will be a matchmaker who will come to talk about matchmaking.

"What's the matchmaker?" Elena asked.

Park so-joo has a deep understanding of Chinese culture, so she explained. After all, South Korea is also a member of the Chinese cultural circle, and it also has the traditional custom of being a matchmaker.

Of course, it is impossible for Elena and Ava to be involved in this kind of thing, otherwise Zhou Qiao would be angry, so they practiced this sentence alone, and they practiced it properly, but they never expected it to come in handy so quickly.

"Alas~, forget it. It's me thinking too much! Zeng Haitao said very regretfully. But when I think about it, it's true, how can two such beautiful foreign girls not have a boyfriend?

Moreover, even if they don't, people from big cities in the United States may not look down on their own small village officials.

Immediately, the two of them eliminated distracting thoughts and talked to Zhou Qiao wholeheartedly.

Especially Fan Zhiyong, Zhou Qiao has a very good impression of him.

After Elena and Ava made tea, they went away to help their mother Zeng Xiuye work.

Although Zeng Haitao lost his mind, he still couldn't help but glance at the twin sisters.

However, now in winter, they are all dressed thickly, and others can't see anything. Zhou Qiao is not such a stingy person, but secretly thinking that he will let the twin girls show their faces less in the future.

"You should be one of the better mixes among our classmates. There is a high school reunion in the county the day after tomorrow, I don't know if Zhou Qiao is free? Zeng Haitao said.

"Class reunion?" Zhou Qiao groaned slightly, and said, "I'm free." ”

When he was in high school, his grades have always been in the top three in the school, but unfortunately, he later failed the college entrance examination, and his rankings were outside the top 100 in the school. It's also infuriating to think about.

Because of this, during college, he didn't go to several high school reunions. This time, well, it's been so long, let's put it down. I don't know what happened to the goddess I had a crush on in the past? Will it come this time?

About half an hour later, Zhou Qiao sent the two away, and made an appointment with Zeng Haitao to meet in the county seat the morning after tomorrow.

When the other party came to visit, he brought a gift, Zhou Qiao thought about it, and took two cigars as a return gift. This cigar, a box of ten, was bought by Zhou Qiao at a bohemian cigar shop called Mario's when he was shopping for New Year's goods in San Francisco, and the taste was not bad.

Because during the Chinese New Year, it is a tradition to distribute cigarettes and cigars to relatives and friends, so Zhou Qiao purchased a lot. I sent it back early.

Fan Zhiyong and Zeng Haitao are also two smokers, and they are overjoyed with Zhou Qiao's return gift.

However, when they went back to check the price, they were a little apprehensive because the value was at least 3,000, which exceeded the standard for accepting gifts.

It's just that it's too late to take it back and return it, because it has already been disassembled and smoked several pieces.

Fan Zhiyong pondered, and went back to give Zhou Qiao something more, anyway, it was just a normal exchange between the Chinese New Year, and it was a classmate relationship for many years, so no one should say anything.

Who visits relatives and friends during the New Year and doesn't send something.

Ladies and gentlemen, do you still have a monthly pass?
