After the final exam in January, it was already January 24. After a three-day break, I had to return to school to start a week-long make-up class. When the make-up class came to an end, every household had already begun to prepare. Chinese New Year.Liu Huaxing's parents began to pickle fish and bacon with sausages, fried meatballs to make spring rolls wrapped in lotus roots, and prepared New Year's Eve dinner.
However, Liu Huaxing and Yang Xiaoxiao had to get up early and go to school every day during this time. The more winter to make up classes, the more difficult it is. Every morning it is still dark outside, so they have to crawl out of the warm quilt until the evening. It's dark to get back.
However, thinking that the New Year is approaching, Liu Huaxing can't help but expect a little.
In the past, New Year’s Eve dinner was when Liu Huaxing hated it the most. The family of four ate in a deserted manner, but now it’s different. This year’s New Year’s Eve dinner is also eaten with Yang Xiaoxiao's family and their family, and Hao Qian will join them.
Therefore, every year, Liu Huaxing is looking forward to the big family members sitting together for a lively meal, watching the Spring Festival Gala and chatting about the family.In his opinion, this is the epitome of his future life.
After this one-week make-up class was over, and after all the work was done, it was already New Year’s Eve. Everyone gathered at Liu Huaxing’s new house.
Yang Xiaoxiao came here early in the morning as usual, while Yang Chengzhi and Wang Mei came around 2 o'clock in the afternoon. Hao Qian, it was more than 3 o'clock in the afternoon, and a large family came together and began to prepare New Year's Eve dinner.
"It's been a year in a flash." Liu Huaxing helped his dad prepare some prelude work in front of the stove, and couldn't help but sigh.
"Yes, we have been dating for another year." Yang Xiaoxiao smiled sweetly at him.
After that, Yang Xiaoxiao glanced outside. At this moment, Hao Qian was still in the living room pretending to be a good girl back and forth with Liu Huaxing’s parents, while Yang Chengzhi and Liu Xuebin were discussing some care of the relationship with his subordinates. Wang Two mothers, Mei and Lu Jing, took their grandma to the sun on the balcony and chatted about what they were studying. How harmonious and harmonious the family is.
Before no one was paying attention, Yang Xiaoxiao leaned in and kissed him: "There is still the last half year."
"Yes, I have to work hard for you this six months, Little Strawberry." Liu Huaxing said softly.
"What's the hard work for me, I only care about myself." Yang Xiaoxiao smiled with his arms around him, "You are working hard. You have to prepare my meals every day and help me with my studies. My own studies can't fall behind. I'm so busy that I don't even have time to exercise, so I feel so sorry for you..." Then, Yang Xiaoxiao touched his face, "Don't be exhausted?"
"No, don't you treat me every now and then?" Liu Huaxing smiled mysteriously.
"It's not about rewarding, I want it too." Yang Xiaoxiao pursed her mouth and said with a shy smile.
At this moment, the chat between Yang Chengzhi and Liu Xuebin came over: "Are you still engaged in stocks?"
"I didn't do it, I saw it clearly." Liu Xuebin shook his head, "I also followed my friend's rumors and followed him to buy the stock. Alas, I ended up in debt and compensated my son's wedding house. If it weren’t for me, now this kid’s deposit is more than enough to buy a smaller house between the second ring and the third ring..."
"Don't touch that thing anymore. There are too many trades behind it. We little people are just tools that are used. Those who really make money are those who are rich and influential. Your son is so promising, what will he do in the future? Can't make money? Why take risks for so much money?" Yang Chengzhi also patiently persuaded, while Liu Xuebin repeatedly said yes.
"No matter how bad, I ended up as a chef at my place. I will slowly take over the kitchen after a few years. There are three or four hundred thousand a year. Your child has nothing to worry about in this future..." Yang Chengzhi then suddenly When the conversation changed, Liu Huaxing felt as if there was a feeling in his words that made Liu Xuebin persuade him to work under the hands of his future father-in-law...
This made him a little bit dumbfounded, but Yang Xiaoxiao didn't hear the extraneous sound. She smiled and said: "Xingxing, I think it's good for you to go to work at my dad's place. The two of us make desserts and the other cooks."
"Then I can't help but reprimand you." Liu Huaxing tapped on the tip of her nose, and Yang Xiaoxiao wrinkled her nose and made a grimace at him and said, "Why are you scolding me? You want to praise me."
"My little strawberry is so cute, and the desserts I make are so cute." Liu Huaxing touched her cheek and smiled, while Yang Xiaoxiao cleverly put her face on his hand and said happily, "Well! That's it!"
"Oh, this year is a bit rushed, don't mind." Liu Xuebin smiled and raised his glass to them.
"I won't eat that kind of restaurant, and the ones that come out must be dog food." At this time, Hao Qian chuckled and leaned in.
Yang Xiaoxiao gave her a white look and asked: "How about your study abroad?"
"It should be nothing more." Hao Qian replied, and Liu Huaxing asked curiously: "Did you talk to them?"
"I told them that these ideas were all told by a friend of mine. If these ideas don't work in the future, I will let him join our house to help." Hao Qian patted his shoulder and smiled simply, not I know I'm still kidding.
"Go away, it's impossible." Yang Xiaoxiao said, guarding Liu Huaxing behind her, and Hao Qian snorted impatiently: "Then how can they believe it if you don't say that? Why don't you let your man give me more Idea, or I will force him to marry him."
After a busy afternoon, at seven o'clock in the evening, the food was finally on the table.
This year's New Year's Eve is entirely done by Liu Huaxing's parents, but he didn't do much, because the senior year of high school has not ended until the day before New Year's Eve, and he has no time to prepare these things.
So this year’s New Year’s meal is very traditional. Family portraits, braised fish, chicken soup, sweet and sour pork ribs, and pickled pork with plums are all the hard dishes Liu Xuebin is in charge of, while the homemade dishes such as tomato scrambled eggs, stir-fried cabbage and potato shreds are from him. Mother's hands, in addition to green pepper beef, spring rolls, lotus root tongs, etc. are all prepared before, and now they can be cooked directly.
"I'm sorry, this year the child's third year in high school doesn't have much time to prepare. I am in a hurry. I will just eat." Liu Xuebin said, holding up his glass and smiling, "Come on, happy new year."
"Hey, where and where, this is already very rich. After all, the children are in their third year of high school, and it's normal to be busy." Yang Chengzhi politely said, toasting to Liu Xuebin, "Happy New Year and Happy New Year."
The people at the scene were also under the lead of Yang Chengzhi, and they began to raise their glasses to say Happy New Year, and then Lu Jing greeted: "Come on, you are welcome, let's eat, eat whatever you want."
"Little Strawberry, give me more advice in the new year." Liu Huaxing handed the cup to Yang Xiaoxiao and smiled.
"You have to spoil me in the new year." Yang Xiaoxiao said with a mischievous smile, and clinked glasses with him.
"In the new year, I will come over to eat more." Hao Qian smiled at him triumphantly.
"Just come, just come, keep full." Lu Jing touched her head and said with a smile. His mother was a kind of dripping blessing. Hao Qian used her own money to support their family for tens of thousands. Oh, his mother keeps this in mind, so she treats Hao Qian as her own daughter. Every time she comes, she takes care of it.
"You have the last half a year left. Hold on." Wang Mei picked up the drink at this time and turned to Yang Xiaoxiao with a smile, "Mom knows that you have worked hard, but all these hard work are for the future of you and your boyfriend. Right? If you feel that you can't hold on anymore, just think about how you will be together in college and cheer yourself up."
"I know mom." Yang Xiaoxiao smiled and clinked glasses with Wang Mei.Then Wang Mei turned to Liu Huaxing: "As for you child, I am not worried. You are always sensible and know what is most important. But I still want to advise you. Sometimes, don’t get used to this. She's a girl, and spoiled her, but she might not know how to measure outside in the future."
"It doesn't matter, she just lets me get used to it, and I will protect her outside." Liu Huaxing said according to Yang Xiaoxiao's little head.
Wang Mei couldn’t help but laugh, and continued: “Also, don’t put too much pressure on yourself. Parents are your backing. If necessary, my child’s father and your parents will give you some support. Yes. Sometimes you don’t need to force yourself to be too mature. It’s good to try to act like a child and rely on your parents.”
"I know Auntie." Liu Huaxing replied with a smile. When he said this, he almost made a mistake and called out a "mother", and suddenly sighed that it was dangerous.Yang Xiaoxiao pinched his face and smiled: "He is obviously a kid, pretending to be an adult..."
After finishing these polite remarks at the beginning, the next step is to chat. Liu Huaxing’s parents sandwiched dishes for Yang Xiaoxiao and Hao Qian. Although his grandma didn’t say much, she looked very happy. She was happy when the whole family got together. , The two mothers exchanged cooking skills, while Liu Xuebin continued to complain to Yang Chengzhi about the interpersonal relationship at work.
Hao Qian was at the side courtesy, pouring wine and drinks, so she was very busy.
After eating for a while, it was also when the Spring Festival Gala started. The family watched as they ate, and everyone’s topic came to denounce that the Spring Festival Gala is worse than one year.When the meal entered the second half, everyone else was already drinking and eating. Only two daddies were still drinking and chatting, grumbling, and it seemed that they would be unconscious again.
And Liu Huaxing sat on the edge of the sofa with Yang Xiaoxiao and Hao Qian, watching TV with her mother and grandma.
"Oh, I'm so full." Hao Qian touched her stomach and said, although her beautiful abdomen curve was not bulging at all, she adjusted a comfortable posture and lay on the sofa, "I think now It’s not bad for the New Year."
"Yeah, very leisurely..." Yang Xiaoxiao said while leaning on Liu Huaxing's shoulder, biting her finger, and looking lazily at the Spring Festival Gala.
"Don't eat hands and hands, there are so many foods at home." Liu Huaxing patted her little hand gently.
Yang Xiaoxiao pursed his lips and muttered something, leaning on his shoulder with a sleepy expression, and from time to time he took out his mobile phone to chat with the girls in the class.
"How is your relationship with the students in your class?" Liu Huaxing turned to Hao Qian and asked.
"Oh, that's it." Hao Qian seemed a little impatient. "They are all people who are greedy for petty and cheap things."
"How about the university trying not to reveal the identity of the rich second-generation? Just as a new start for myself." Liu Huaxing poked her forehead and said, "Xiaoxiao and I also had a bad time in junior high school. At first, it's not good now."
"Hmm... try it." Hao Qian said absently, Yang Chengzhi and Liu Xuebin had finished drinking at this moment, so Wang Mei and Lu Jing began to clean up the table, Liu Huaxing and Yang Xiaoxiao helped to support My father went to bed.
This year’s New Year’s Eve is almost the same as last year. Grandma went to bed at around ten o’clock, and when the fireworks were set off outside at twelve o’clock, the family started calling relatives at home to send blessings.
"Little Strawberry... Happy New Year." Liu Huaxing squeezed Yang Xiaoxiao's ears, who was asleep beside him, and smiled.
"Hmm..." Yang Xiaoxiao rubbed his eyes and responded, then leaned in and kissed him, "Happy New Year."
So, the next step is to go home. Wang Mei drove Hao Qian and Yang Chengzhi home first, while Liu Huaxing personally sent Yang Xiaoxiao back.The two families gave their blessings, and after a few words of caution on the road, they set off on the return journey.
"It's so cold..." After sitting at home for too long, the cold outside came out, and Yang Xiaoxiao shivered.
"Come." Liu Huaxing opened his down jacket and wrapped Yang Xiaoxiao in his arms, holding her hand.
"It feels like it's going to snow soon." Yang Xiaoxiao snuggled on his chest, staggering forward and muttered.Liu Huaxing kissed her on her cheek and smiled: "Because it is relatively late for the New Year this year, it usually snows in February in our city."
"Oh, it's a new year again." Yang Xiaoxiao sighed, turned to Liu Huaxing and smiled: "The third new year after our relationship, the stars..."
"We will spend many New Years together in the future." Liu Huaxing said softly, "Our family will also get bigger and bigger."
"Hmm..." Yang Xiaoxiao said with a light smile, leaning over and rubbing his face.
At this moment, when they were walking on the road, the fireworks kept on, and the sky was colorful, illuminating the night sky like daylight, and it also made the city of Beichang at 12 o'clock a lot more lively. They were also everywhere on the way back. The neighbors who came out to set off firecrackers were not lonely at all.Soon, Liu Huaxing sent Yang Xiaoxiao downstairs to their home.
"The next semester of high school is coming soon, let's cheer together?" Liu Huaxing said, holding Yang Xiaoxiao's small hand.
"Well, with you here, I'm not afraid of anything." Yang Xiaoxiao nodded and smiled confidently, "Go back to bed early?"
"So are you." Liu Huaxing said, taking a sip on her little mouth, "Good night, baby."
