Chapter Eighty-Three: Returning for the New Year
Lin Qiu came to Zhou Xiaotong's house this time, generously placed the gifts, bowed to Zhou Zhennan and Mrs. Zhou, and said congratulations: "I wish Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou a happy New Year. β
The monkey also bowed like Lin Qiu, but he couldn't say auspicious words like Lin Qiu, he could only say Happy New Year dryly, he knew what level he was, and today was Lin Qiu's home field.
Zhou Zhennan listened happily and took out two red envelopes, he had already prepared them, and sent Lin Qiu and them over. Zhou's mother met Lin Qiu for the first time, she was a music teacher, and the last time she planned to meet Lin Qiu, she happened to be on a business trip for further study. I missed it.
This time, when I saw Lin Qiu behaving generously and decently, with a smooth body, polite and handsome, I couldn't help but feel a little more good in my heart. It is said that the mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, and the more she looks at it, the happier she becomes.
Lin Qiu let Zhou's mother look at her, and he inquired about Zhou's mother's personality from Zhou Xiaotong in advance.
Zhou Xiaotong said at the time: "My mother teaches music, except for a little cleanliness, I feel that she is very easy to get along with." β
Zhou Xiaotong said it simply, but Lin Qiu couldn't take it lightly, students who studied music generally had better economic conditions and appearance than him. He couldn't compare to those people. can only start from the character and convince Zhou's mother of him, so that he can hand over his daughter to him.
After some psychological construction, Lin Qiu decided not to engage in those vain heads, but directly bring some gifts to express blessings, and then greet the New Year.
Sure enough, I got Zhou's mother.
"I've heard Xiaotong praise you for a long time, and when I saw it today, it's really good." Zhou's mother nodded and smiled at him, looking a little distant.
This is already the best in Lin Qiu's heart, as long as he doesn't object, he will win. The monkey didn't know that the undercurrent was surging between these two people, but he was just stupid, he felt that the people of the Zhou family were very kind, and gave him a lot of Xu Fuji!
After the New Year's greetings, a few of them sat down and chatted for a while, Lin Qiu saw that the time was not early, so he said; "Uncle and aunt, you guys are busy first, I'll come over and take a look. I won't bother you. β
Zhou Zhennan nodded and asked Zhou Xiaotong to send them off, just so that a few of their children could sit together and chat.
Zhou Xiaotong walked out of the door and secretly grabbed Lin Qiu's hand: "It's strange to come to my house, your hands are so cold." Zhou Xiaotong felt sorry for Lin Qiu.
Lin Qiu disagreed: "No matter how far the road is, it is worth it for me to see you." He pushed Zhou Xiaotong, "You're only wearing a sweater, and it's still cold, let's go into the house." β
"We've only said a few words, and you're going to drive me away." Zhou Xiaotong pouted dissatisfiedly.
The monkey watched the two people fall in love with disdain on the side: "I really don't understand what you two are tired of." β
Lin Qiu kicked the monkey: "Go, go, what do you know?" β
Zhou Xiaotong saw the two of them fighting, and laughed crookedly. The two of them were tired of it for a while, and then finally separated.
The monkey was very envious when he saw that Lin Qiu had a girlfriend: "When can I also hold the girl's hand?" β
Lin Qiu thought about it, sooner or later, he remembered that the monkey had married very early in his previous life, and it seemed that he was from the same village as him.
"There will definitely be." He said sincerely.
When the monkey heard this, he immediately floated a lot: "A handsome person like me, there must be a beautiful and gentle girl who can't help falling in love with me, hahaha!" The more the monkey spoke, the more excited he became, and he put his hands in his hair and laughed loudly.
Lin Qiu couldn't help but hit him when he heard the monkey talk more and more outrageous, "Other girls will only like handsome and rich men." β
The monkey was stabbed by this sentence; "You think all girls are like you think, I like people who are not material and are simply good to me." Monkeys are very naΓ―ve and full of fantasies about love.
The monkey has never been in love once. It's normal to look forward to the legendary perfect love, but Lin Qiu has worked hard in society, he knows what kind of person girls will find to entrust for life, and those girls' choices are not wrong, after all, marriage will have children, and a family needs to be responsible for children.
You can't even afford to buy your child's milk powder, right?
But seeing the monkey's yearning face, Lin Qiu didn't say anything, people still need a little hope.
They walked all the way to the entrance of the village and found that they were rushing to the market.
In the past, during the Chinese New Year, the monkeys watched others eat meat, and it was good to eat a few eggs at home. I made a lot of money working outside the home this year. He walked directly to the butcher shop and waved his big hand: "Bring me ten catties of pork." β
Lin Qiu smiled and said, "It's not promising!" β
The monkey retorted: "You were more miserable than me, and you couldn't eat eggs." β
Lin Qiu retorted: "Then I see if the meat looks like a hungry wolf." β
"Then don't eat the meat I bought." The monkeys began to mess around.
The two fought all the way, and when they came home in the evening, Chen Qingxiu and the monkey mother had already made dinner, and several of them had the best New Year ever.
Just after the New Year, Lin Qiu is going to school again, and the shop where the monkey works has also opened, urging the monkey to help, and everyone will usher in parting again after gathering once in their hometown.
Adults will get used to this kind of goodbye after goodbye, and the children are slowly getting used to it, and the monkey wants to cry a little at his mother, but he feels that he is an adult, so he can only rub his mother's face.
The train passed through the bridge hole, time was fleeting, Lin Qiu ushered in the annual school season, and the car repair shop also began to work, but just after the New Year, the business of the hotel was relatively dull, and the three children were idle.
Lin Qiu and the monkey brought them pickled vegetables made by Chen Qingxiu, as well as some New Year's goods, although the restaurant was in charge of the rice, it was not as delicious as the ones they made.
The three children have grown a lot taller after the New Year, Zhou Xiaotong and Lin Qiu made an appointment for a weekend to take them to buy new clothes, and there were too many things to do before the year, so they delayed the purchase of clothes.
Leprosy they haven't worn new clothes for a long time, and they don't care when they bought it, they just went on and bouncing, because the dog child was injured, he has been coughing a little since the winter, he has spent a lot of money on Lin Qiu because of the injury, Hua Wenyan also gave him a lot of expenses, but it was Lin Qiu who ran for him.
The dog boy came to Lin Qiu privately: "Brother Lin Qiu, I don't want to wear new clothes." β
Lin Qiu was puzzled: "You have grown a lot taller, your pants can't save your legs, and if you don't buy new clothes, you will get frostbite." β
"I ...... I...... Don't buy it for me. The dog child muttered, and Lin Qiu guessed his thoughts.
Touching his head: "The other two have new clothes, you have to have them too." Lin Qiu felt that the child should be treated fairly, and the dog child was injured only because of righteousness and bravery.
Seeing that Lin Qiu couldn't refuse, the dog boy could only do it, he felt warm in his heart, few people were so good to them.
