Chapter 22: Listen to your mother
Today's dumplings are filled with fresh meat and mustard, fresh meat and mustard are chopped, and then mixed with eggs, light soy sauce and green onions, especially the crispy salty freshness of the mustard bitten in the mouth, which further enhances the rich taste of the dumplings, which is delicious and strong.
Su Lou was really not polite, he was dipped in raw garlic and vinegar alone, and after eating twenty, he had to add another bowl, so shocked that Ah Ying hurriedly went to cook another pot.
"You're welcome, you're really welcome!" I couldn't help muttering, Ah Ying and I still plan to store these dumplings in the refrigerator, but when he comes, they can't be saved.
When Su Lou heard this, he smiled at me: "It's all my own people, what's polite?"
"Who is your own person with you?" I looked at him, my head aching, "Are you so familiar outside?"
"That's not, I'm cold outside, I'm a domineering president. Su Lou said.
I rolled my eyes to the sky, Lao Tzu believed in your evil yo! Are you still domineering president? Wang Ba met the president is almost the same! "What does Lao Qin say?"
"What do you mean?" Su Lou looked at me suspiciously.
"Zhao Ping'an!" I hurriedly said: "Didn't you find the whereabouts of twenty-three people in Zhao Ping'an's list? Did Lao Qin say that he wanted to rescue them?"
"Their special department itself is not in a hurry, you are not even a foreign editor, what are you so concerned about?" Su Lou approached me and squeezed his eyebrows for a while: "Do you want to win the Good Citizen Award?"
"What!" I couldn't help but glance at him again, paused, and said, "I just think Zhao Ping'an is too pitiful, they don't deserve such treatment." ”
"Compassionate heart?"
"No, I just think it's all life. ”
With that, I was silent. I remembered Zhao Ping'an's heart-rending appearance of crying, and carefully told me that he was poisonous, and asked me not to touch the sadness when I was sad. Maybe others won't be able to understand how he felt, but I could.
I have a very unbearable past, so unbearable that I don't even have the confidence to forget.
Su Lou looked at me silently for a while, and then stuffed a raw garlic in his mouth, so spicy that he frowned. "The end of the year is coming soon, and the end of the year is the most undisturbed day of the year, and all the bad karma will be covered up underground by auspicious luck on this day. So even if you have to go out, you have to wait until after the end of the year, and you can have a good year. ”
"Is there such a saying?"
At this time, the beauty came over from the kitchen, jumped onto the stool, glanced at Su Lou as if nothing, and then explained slowly: "In ancient times, when the Six Realms were divided, the Lord of the Six Realms made a promise that there would be a special day for each session, called 'Nayuan Day', which could not be interfered with in any form by other unbounded beings. The power of the human world is chosen on the first day of the first lunar month, as the beginning of the new year, blessings in the world, auspicious everywhere, people will go out to see will be smiling, auspicious to each other. ”
"Not only that, but you can also find that on this day of the year, the probability of committing a crime is almost zero, and even the most brutal killer will postpone it for at least one day. ”
"Wow, it seems like this, I've never heard of any murder on the first day of the first lunar month. "When I look back on what I've seen and heard over the past 20 years, it seems that this is really the case.
The beauty continued: "Other circles also have their own Nayuan Day, for example, the underworld is the fifteenth day of the seventh month, which is Halloween. Isn't there a saying that has been circulating since ancient times, the ghost door is opened on July 15, and the living should not be locked up in a bloody prison, which refers to the heart, which means that people who go out are very easy to be caught by ghosts, and thus die in Huangquan. ”
I was stunned, it turns out that these statements are really the experience left by the ancestors, and I haven't paid attention to it before, but it's just a festival. For example, how many young people may not even think that the Chinese New Year is important, but just go home to have a meal with relatives.
"So during the Chinese New Year, visiting each other and giving gifts are all manifestations of mutual auspiciousness, do you have anything for me?" Su Lou looked at me and said with a smile.
I suddenly had a black line, why is this guy always so cheeky?
I ignored him, but went into the kitchen to discuss with Ah Ying what to prepare for the New Year. Since the New Year is very important, to collect blessings, of course, you can't be sloppy!
Su Lou was bored, so he left, and I just reacted, he really came to eat?
In order to welcome the New Year, we worked very hard in the next few days, either buying a lot of New Year's goods, or cleaning the room.
I also bought a lot of New Year's gifts for Ah Ying, including lipsticks that she had been reluctant to buy, as well as the peripherals of the third master of the Southern School that she had always wanted to buy but couldn't buy, as well as a lot of clothes and shoes.
And I also bought myself a few clothes, and even installed an on-demand TV for the beauty, and she quarreled for half a month, and finally watched her favorite cartoon -- cat and mouse! God knows if she is such a cat, how can she like to watch a cartoon of a cat that has been abused by rats to the point of incompleteness? Every time I want to change the channel, she and I are anxious, but fortunately, Ah Ying and I have mobile phones to play, and she will go.
Chinese New Year's Eve, eight o'clock in the evening.
The Spring Festival Gala was broadcast live on TV, and the red screen reflected the home in festive colors.
I hugged the beauty, A-Ying held the fries, and we sat on the sofa while watching the show, complaining, and having fun.
Suddenly, my phone rang, I took it and saw that it was a string of garbled characters, I seemed to think of something, got up and walked to the balcony, and then connected the phone.
"Hello?"
"Hey, I'm my father!" came a familiar voice on the other end of the phone, the man who claimed to be my father, I had never seen before. Later, I tried to call back, but each time it told me that the number I was calling was empty, and I almost thought it was a prank.
But today is Chinese New Year's Eve......
"Hey. I answered, but I didn't know what to say.
"Nan, are you celebrating the New Year today? Have you bought new clothes? Have you made roast chicken to eat?"
"Nannan, Dad misses you so much, I really want to go over and celebrate the New Year with you now, but Dad has thought of a lot of ways, and there is no way to go over to you, don't blame Dad?"
"Woo woo, Dad thinks about you all the time, Dad dreams about it, it's Dad who is useless......"
On the other end of the phone, there was a cry.
I listened, listened, tears "snapped" and fell down and fell on the fence and shattered into beads.
"What is a man crying about?Go away, let me talk to the woman!" There was a woman's voice of scolding, and I couldn't help but smile a little, this father is very strict with his wife!
"Oh, I'm my mother! Don't listen to your dad here, he's such a person. Did you eat well for the Chinese New Year? Did the beauty let you cultivate? Did anyone else bully you? Ah, by the way, the last time I watched your live broadcast, there was a young man in the live broadcast who looked good, is he your boyfriend? Did he chase you?"
The smile on my lips was even worse, no one had ever said these things to me.
"Nannan, you listen to your mother, we are not afraid of finding a boyfriend, but you have to let your mother check for you, you see how obedient your father is taught by me......? Bah! Heaven and earth, whoever dares to make you suffer, who makes you suffer, the old lady will not die well if she fights hard to cultivate!"
"What nonsense are you talking about during the New Year?" the man sobbed on the side, and came over to continue talking.
"Nannan, it doesn't matter, as long as you like it, Dad will support you, as long as you are happy, happy, healthy, whatever Mom and Dad can do!"
"Yes, my mother said the wrong thing, don't blame my mother!"
"Nannan, don't blame your parents for not looking for you, we have tried all kinds of ways over the years, and it has taken thousands of years to refine this live broadcast room, just so that when you broadcast live, we can see your situation. But we are too different from your world here, Mom and Dad have a lot of things to give you, but there is no way to send them to you, we are still trying to find a way to upgrade the live broadcast room, you can rest assured, Mom and Dad have always put this matter first. ”
"Nannan, don't be afraid, I've already said hello to your world, don't worry, as long as you don't cause a big incident, someone will cover you above. ”
"Why don't you speak? Are you listening?"
"The line is broken again?" that bastard actually dares to lie to this king, this king doesn't let him know what life is better than death today, this king is not ......" The man suddenly jumped to his feet in anger, and then hung up the phone.
I covered my mouth, laughed and laughed, and cried, and cried, and cried, and fell silent.
It's not that the connection is broken, it's just that I don't know what to say, even if I have 10,000 words in my heart that I want to say, but I can't say a single one. I want to ask where they are, I want to see what they look like, I want to ask why we are separated, I want to ask a lot, from childhood to adulthood, little by little, a tear is a word.
But I couldn't say it.
"Bang!"
Not far away, a firework suddenly bloomed, so gorgeous, and then a succession of fireworks flew into the sky, comparing the stars in the sky, and the beauty of the moment was not as beautiful as the world.
Ah Ying also heard the sound of fireworks, came out to watch, and saw that my face was wet, and came over and put her arm around me. "What's wrong?"
"Nope. I wiped a handful of tears, and then hugged her in my arms: "It's good to have you for the New Year together." Happy New Year, Ah Ying. ”
Ah Ying smiled slightly and reached out to hug me. "Happy New Year, Xiaobai. ”
......
In some distant world, somewhere, there is a palace of black oppression.
The palace was empty, except for a huge crystal in the center, which flashed red and flashed. A suffocating beautiful woman sat on the throne with a cold face, and a man with an ordinary appearance, but a magnificent man looked at the woman aggrievedly: "Madam, it's broken again......"
"What do you call me?" the woman looked at him quietly, and although she didn't say anything, it was bitterly cold.
"Woman, Queen!" the man suddenly cried out in his heart, and whenever she cared about her name, it proved that she was really angry, very angry and angry. He didn't dare to stay in the main hall anymore, so he stretched out his hand and put the crystal into his sleeve and went directly to a special cell.
The cell has everything, and it can be said that it is a small palace where a blonde man lives. When he saw someone coming, he trembled: "Oh, my most respected king, why are you here?"
The man slapped him directly: "You actually dare to lie to me? Why is the connection still disconnected this time? Do you know that I just contacted my daughter, and the connection was actually disconnected, this king is too good to you, and you live too comfortably, right?"
As he spoke, he slapped him again.
After a series of ghost crying wolf howls, the blonde man was no longer human, and he was angry: "This time, one, it must be possible!"
"You better know that you people in the underworld won't offend this king for you as just a ghost, so if you do things for me obediently, this king may even let you go!"
"Yes, my most revered king!"
