Chapter 45
After the Li familys reunion dinner on the 28th of the twelfth lunar month, all the remaining meat and vegetables were moved to the Zhong family, and the two families celebrated the New Year together this year.
"Master, my mother-in-law sent a lot of dried vegetables yesterday. I'll leave half of it at home for you to eat when you come back from the city."
Zhong Ai said hurriedly: "Uncle Li, you'd better take all the dried vegetables to the city. I'll Grandma will stay in the city for a while before she comes back. Please keep these dishes at home to prevent them from spoiling."
Grandma Zhong smiled and said, "Where can I stay for such a long time? I will go and see how your hotel is decorated and then come back."
Zhong Ai thought that this was not possible. She didnt know when her grandma would be diagnosed with the disease. She would have to live with her in the city this year so that she could go for a physical check-up.
"Grandma, we have a vegetable patch in the backyard. It's empty now. I have to go to school and have to take care of things in the restaurant. It's up to you to grow vegetables."
Aunt Zhao immediately understood what Zhong Ai meant and helped persuade: " Xiao Ai just misses you. We have only been back for the Chinese New Year for a few days. Are you willing to go without seeing Xiao Ai for so long? Let me tell you, you have decided to go back to the city with Xiao Ai. Why not stay a few more days? You also feel sorry for her."
"Grandma~" Zhong Ai lay on her grandma's shoulder and acted coquettishly.
Grandma Zhong laughed and said, "Okay, okay, I'll listen to you. I'll stay for a few more days and come back when the weather gets hot. That's okay." "
Okay!"
No matter what, let's go and stay first.
The day before yesterday, Zhong Ai proposed to take her grandma to the provincial capital for a physical check-up. Grandma was unwilling to go, and she didn't want to rush her. She simply waited until she returned to Yunhai City to go to the Second Hospital to see Director Qi for a check-up.
The grandfather and grandson agreed that Zhong Ai would put down the important things on his mind, and he was in a particularly good mood when he called Lu Changbai at night.
"My grandma knows about the two of us..."
Zhong Ai wanted to say that grandma knew about their relationship, but she didn't agree to it, so she swallowed the word "love".
"Well, my grandparents and my dad also know."
Zhong Ai's breath tightened: "What did you say?"
On the other end of the phone, Lu Changbai chuckled: "I didn't say it, my grandma saw it with her sharp eyes, and then my grandpa and I Dad also knows."
This afternoon his dad asked him in a roundabout way if he had enough money to spend, but he didn't understand what his dad meant. Only then did his dad say that considering that he was in a relationship with Xiao Ai, he was worried that he would not have enough money to spend.
Lu Changbai couldn't help but want to laugh when he thought of his father's serious expression.
Zhong Ai was a little flustered. What should she do? Now that Grandma Jin and the others know about it, how will she get along with Grandma Jin in the future?
"Zhong Ai."
"Huh?"
"How are you thinking about it?"
Zhong Ai: "..."
Lu Changbai deliberately lowered his voice: "You haven't thought about it yet? Do you... don't like me?"
Zhong Ai held the phone. Her hand suddenly tightened, and when she heard that he seemed depressed, Zhong Ai pictured in her mind the image of him sitting on the sofa with his head down, and she couldn't bear to let him go.
Finally, she plucked up the courage to say what was in her heart: "I... don't like you."
"That means I like you?" Lu Changbai immediately asked.
Zhong Ai nodded with a red face. After nodding, she realized that he couldn't see it, so she hummed heavily.
On a cold winter night, Lu Changbai wore a black down jacket and sat in the yard. When he heard her solemn response, he laughed.
Zhong Ai just listened to the phone and thought, his voice is really nice.
At this moment, Zhong's heart just feels extremely satisfied. Is this the joy of falling in love?
The person you like also likes you!
Such an excellent person cant wait to get closer to you!
Your response can make a cold-hearted person laugh out loud and fill his heart with joy!
Zhong Ai thought that although she was happy talking to him on the phone every night, she couldn't wait to see him.
Unfortunately, today is only the 29th of the Lunar New Year, and there are still three days before I go back.
Lu Changbai told her that he had visited Fangcao Street today and the foreman told him that work would not stop even on New Year's Eve. When I went to see it today, the first floor has been expanded and capped, and the second floor is under construction. It is estimated that the second floor will be capped tomorrow.
Lu Changbai also told her that he had carefully inspected the house and found that the materials used in the house were solid and not perfunctory. The engineering team she hired was very good.
Lu Huaishan made his fortune in engineering. For a smart man like Lu Changbai, who was led by his father, he knew all about the twists and turns of engineering.
To praise the engineering team is to praise Zhong Ai for his vision and ability to do things!
Zhong Ai couldn't help but laugh, the system engineering must be real!
If it weren't for the fact that it was only three floors high to deceive others, the system would have been repaired in an instant.
The two young lovers chatted for a long time and hung up on the phone for two hours.
Zhong Ai threw away the phone and rolled over on the bed holding the quilt.
Ah, I really want to see him soon!
There are many things to be busy with during the New Year. The next day is New Years Eve, and Zhong likes to get busy as soon as he gets up.
After cleaning the house, making breakfast, and washing the dishes, Aunt Zhao and the others came over, chatting while preparing various steamed vegetables, fried meatballs, etc.
After lunch, a neighbor with whom I was close came to bring meat and vegetables, and Zhong Ai had to reciprocate the gifts, moving them around, and it was almost time to prepare dinner.
This year's New Year's Eve dinner is more sumptuous than last year. Uncle Li and his friends have made a lot of money this year and have a bright future, so they are particularly willing to spend money. Uncle Li bought the prawns on the New Year's Eve dinner.
"The old year has passed and a new year has ushered in. I wish us a better and better new year and make a lot of money!"
"Cheers!"
A glass of orange juice for each person, let's have a drink!
Zhong Ai silently made a wish in her heart, hoping that grandma will be healthy and everything goes well next year!
As they sat down to eat, Zhao Hui kept praising Zhong Ai: "This bacon sausage is well made. Just put it in a pot and steam it and it's so delicious." "It
's really delicious!"
"Not bad, not bad!"
"Xiao Ai found it. There are a few chefs who are really good at their crafts. Don't be reluctant to pay them, otherwise it will be more of a loss than the gain if the chefs are poached."
"Aunt Zhao, I know."
Zhong Xin thought, the salary of the chef in my restaurant is only I can only afford it.
During the end of the year, it's not like the big hotels in Yunhai City didn't come to poach people. They all offered to pay dividends, but they were rejected by the chefs in the stores.
I heard that those bosses were very generous and would pay whatever they wanted.
What a pity, people dont need money, they just need cooking skills!
After the New Year's Eve dinner, a brazier was burned in the main room, and the family chatted around the brazier, ate melon seeds, and watched the Spring Festival Gala.
After staying up until twelve o'clock, Li Yang ran out and lit a bunch of firecrackers. A burst of crackling sound echoed with the sound of firecrackers from other houses on the street.
The phone rang and I picked it up in front of my grandma.
"Hey!"
"Happy New Year, Zhong Ai!"
Facing Aunt Zhao's teasing gaze, Zhong Ai blushed and said Happy New Year.
The two of them had just exchanged a few words when Grandma Jin took Lu Changbai's phone and greeted Zhong Ai with a loud smile, saying she wanted to talk to her grandmother.
Zhong Ai gave the phone to grandma, and grandma smiled and said Happy New Year to Grandma Jin. Zhong Ai heard a shout of "in-laws" from the other side!
Zhong Ai quickly excused herself to go to the kitchen to get a kettle and ran away.
Zhong Ai came back from dawdling in the kitchen for a while and the phone had been hung up. Grandma Zhong said with a smile: "I made an agreement with Changbai's grandma to go to the city this time and come back after the summer vacation."
Zhong Ai was delighted: "Of course!"
Zhong Ai didn't know why grandma suddenly changed her decision. After returning to the city on the morning of the third day of the Lunar New Year, Lu Changbai drove to pick up Zhong Ai and found out the reason.
It turned out that Grandma Jin asked her grandma to go to Beijing in the autumn.
There were five of them. Lu Changbai drove over in a seven-seater car and Zhong Ai sat in the passenger seat.
"Grandpa and his school's Retirement Center for Veteran Cadres organize a trip for everyone, and they can also bring their family members. My grandma wants to invite Grandma Zhong to come with her."
Zhong Ai hummed, she thought it was good, and she should take advantage of her grandma's legs and legs. Get out more.
I just dont know what the results of grandmas physical examination will be in the fall.
"Oh, I love her grandma. I haven't seen her for a long time. She misses me so much."
"I miss you too."
Grandma Zhong was hugged by Jin Qiu as soon as she got out of the car. The two old ladies were very enthusiastic, just like real sisters. .
"I've prepared everything for dinner at my house at noon. You must not cook."
"Okay, okay, today we will eat at your house."
Jin Qiu laughed loudly: "Open up and eat. If you don't eat, you won't be able to hold on." Get off the table!"
Aunt Zhao pushed Zhong Ai and winked: "It's not easy to meet a husband with such a good temperament."
Zhong Ai blushed: "Aunt Zhao, please stop talking and move your luggage into the house. "
You don't need to put it in the house, just move it to your car. You can drive us to
our new home in the afternoon." They have already moved into the house they bought a few years ago and simply renovated it. When they return to the city, they will definitely live in their own home. Excuse me here.
Lu Changbai: "Aunt Zhao, then don't carry your luggage. I will drive you there in this car in the afternoon."
Zhao Hui was not polite to Lu Changbai: "Okay, I'll listen to you."
Li Yang didn't want to go back: "I want to go with you My sister is staying with me, and I will go home in two days."
"Then you can stay, since your dad and I will be busy in the next two days, and we won't have time to care about you."
Li Dawei handed over the dried vegetables to his master's house and the neighbors. All kinds of local specialties were moved into the house, and Zhong Ai gave half of them to Lu Changbai: "This is for you." "
Yes."
The two of them have established their relationship now, and Lu Changbai will not refuse this little thing.
I untied my hair, which was a bit messy due to the car ride, and smoothed it out after a few strokes. I like to pull my hair up, and my neck feels much fresher.
Zhong Ai turned around and saw Lu Changbai looking at her: "What are you looking at?"
Lu Changbai touched the top of her head: "I'm curious, I don't know what it feels like to have such long hair."
Zhong Ai said deliberately: "Then do you want to have long hair? Lu
Changbai smiled and pinched the back of her neck: "Let's go, grandma is waiting for us."
The two of them walked over carrying the local specialties. Jin Qiu's eyes lit up when he saw the two of them, and he couldn't wait to say to Grandma Zhong: "Look , they are really a match, aren't they?"
Grandma Zhong was happy to see the result: "The two children are destined!"
Xu Liren said with a smile: "The two children are still young, if my parents are not considerate in the future, I will still Please teach me a lesson."
Lu Huaishan nodded: "It's always for their own good."
Grandma Zhong nodded with a smile. The Xu family and the Lu family, from the elders to the younger ones, are all kind people.
At noon, Zhao Hui, the chef of Jinqiu, went to help. Zhong Ai also wanted to help, but was kicked out and told to play by herself.
What's so fun about her?
In the yard, Grandpa Xu and Uncle Lu were playing chess, while Uncle Li and Li Yang were watching.
Grandma was talking to Grandma Jin at the kitchen door, Zhong Ai stood under the eaves with nothing to do.
"Want to see the camphor tree?" Lu Changbai came over.
Zhong Ai raised her head: "What is this if it's not a camphor tree?"
Lu Changbai took her hand and went upstairs: "I'll take you to see it above." When
Lu Changbai said above, he meant looking out from his room.
Lu Changbai's room was the one she vaguely saw last time. Opening the door was diagonally opposite the bed. Inside the bed was a wardrobe against the wall. Outside the bed facing the window was a desk. Next to the desk was a large bookcase.
Lu Changbai took Zhong Ai to the desk and opened the window to show her.
Zhong Ai said in surprise: "It's a bird's nest. Is this a sparrow?"
"Well, when I came back during the National Day last year, I found two sparrows building a nest in the tree. When I came back from the winter vacation, there were three more little sparrows in the nest."
Zhong Ai supported the desk with his hands, stretched his neck and looked out: "I have never seen a sparrow's nest so close."
Country children often played in the mountains when they were young, climbing trees and digging out bird's nests. But Zhong Ai once She has never done it because she can't climb trees.
Zhong Ai sighed: "When I was in elementary school, my older brothers and sisters didn't take me to play."
Lu Changbai comforted her: "It doesn't matter, I can't climb trees."
"Then what did you play when you were a child?"
He played when he was a child. What? It seems that he spends most of his time studying. His mother likes outstanding children. He learned piano from his mother since he was a child, but after his mother left, he never played the piano again.
Zhong Ai knew that she had said the wrong thing, so she lowered her head and apologized to him.
"No need to say sorry, that happened many years ago, and I don't care about it for a long time." Moreover, as they get along for a long time, she will know these things sooner or later.
"Lu Changbai, have you fed them?"
Lu Changbai shook his head: "They can feed themselves, so don't do anything extra."
"Okay!" She just had itchy hands and had never fed small animals.
"Then you want to raise a cat or puppy?"
"Forget it, I have to study and take care of the hotel, so I don't have that time."
Lu Changbai touched her head and said, "You can raise one after I come back from studying abroad. I will take care of it." ."
Zhong Ai had a smile in his eyes: "Forget it, you might be busier than me by then." "No matter how busy I am
, I still have time to spend time with you."
The two people's eyes met, and neither of them avoided their gaze. Lu Changbai's heart moved. , pulled her wrist, Zhong Ai leaned forward, and the two hugged each other.
His hands were around her shoulders, and she mustered up the courage to wrap her hands around his waist and rest them on his back.
"Oh, my God, my eyes!"
As soon as Li Yang came up, he saw the two of them hugging each other, jumping down and running downstairs in an exaggerated way.
"Li Yang, stop!"
Zhong Ai quickly pushed Lu Changbai away and wanted to chase Li Yang. Lu Changbai held her back and said, "Don't be afraid, Li Yang won't complain."
Zhong Ai was not afraid that Li Yang would complain, he was just embarrassed.
Lu Changbai pressed forward and touched her cheek lightly with the back of his hand.
"We're serious about dating, what's the matter with a hug?"
Zhong Ai glared at him coyly, hooligan!
