Chapter 273: It's a Regret
Living conditions are improving every year.
The festive atmosphere is getting worse every year.
Xu Qing looked at the night outside and didn't feel the same atmosphere as before when the New Year was approaching.
Last year, there were still small colorful flags floating on the streets to celebrate the Spring Festival and so on. This year, there are only a few red lanterns hanging alone.
There’s no snow this year either…
It snowed twice a few days ago, but it didn't accumulate. Jiang He's wish to slide and play on the ice was dashed.
“With the ban on fireworks, the Chinese New Year will lose its flavor.”
"It's better to ban it. It's crackling every day until midnight. It's annoying to death."
"I've aged another year, and I don't feel the same..."
"How do you want to feel, kid?"
"It's a pity. I remember that during the Chinese New Year, I was so happy that I would just bring back a pig's hind leg to buy meat. Now my life is no different from usual."
Xu Qing left the window and wandered into the kitchen to see if there was anything to eat that he could take a bite of. He was very disappointed. Everything that could be eaten directly was not eaten in the pot, and nothing on the chopping board could be eaten secretly.
After the family's dinner was ready, Jiang He wiped his hands and sat down with a silly smile on his face, which made Xu Qing look strange.
Are you so happy eating rainbow farts?
"What are you looking at me for?" Jiang He noticed that his gaze was strange.
"Otherwise, look."
"Watch the meal."
Several people were still waiting for Xu Wenbin to wash his hands. Zhou Suzhi clicked on her phone and said, "By the way, let's add Zhifu as a friend. I haven't added you yet."
"OK."
Jiang He already had his own Zhifu Bao, and now he is happy raising chickens. Hearing Zhou Suzhi's words, he happily took out his mobile phone.
Xu Qing silently looked away.
Zhou Suzhi must have wanted to steal energy. Coincidentally, Jiang He also liked to steal energy from him.
Let's steal it from each other.
I don’t know if Jiang He will save some face for the old lady and not finish stealing.
More than ten years ago, it was popular to add friends to steal food and grab parking spaces. Now it is popular to raise chickens to gain energy.
There is also a collection of five blessings, which is similar to the cards used to collect dry noodles.
History always reincarnates again and again.
Xu Qing turned on her phone with disdain and took away all her energy so that they wouldn't steal it.
"Drink a little?"
Xu Wenbin took out a bottle of Ocean Blue and put it on the table. It tasted very soft. Xu Qing turned his head and looked at Jiang He. Jiang He lowered his head and didn't look at him.
"Well, drink a little."
Jiang He breathed a sigh of relief at Xu Qing's words and glanced at him quietly.
It was as if she was not allowed to drink and was very strict about it.
"Drink less!" Zhou Suzhi didn't care so much and said directly.
"I don't drink much, just a few sips."
"Yes, that's right. With such a big table, it would be a waste not to drink some."
It was dark outside and the wind was blowing extremely cold.
The lights were on in the room, the heater was steaming, and it seemed like two different worlds from the outside separated by a wall.
Sip slowly from the small wine cup little by little. Drink a little in winter to feel smooth all over.
After half the bottle of wine was consumed, Xu Wenbin's face turned slightly red and he no longer looked as serious as before. He looked happy and his eyebrows were slightly raised.
To be honest, it has been more than half a month now, and he is still a little confused about the matter of Xu Qing and Jiang He getting their certificates. He has not entered the state, or is not ready to change their identities.
Sometimes when I sit alone and think about this, I suddenly feel... an indescribable feeling, very subtle.
The son I had raised for more than 20 years suddenly got married.
Then there is joy.
Looking across the faces of Jiang He and Xu Qing, Xu Wenbin felt that fate was indeed mysterious.
Xu Qing is not serious, that has always been the case, and Jiang He is not an ordinary girl. She has a checkered life experience, and they are both troublemakers.
It just happens that the piece is just right. It seems that a negative is a positive?
He sighed and took a sip from the small wine cup. It felt like fate, wonderful.
"Playing too many games can lead to violence. When you practice that boxing, be careful. You should also rein in your temper when you get married."
Hearing what Xu Wenbin whispered, Xu Qing couldn't help but glance at Jiang He.
"Violence?"
According to the facts, playing games is the best way to solve violence.
A heroine sits at home playing games every day and doesn't even bother to practice sword practice.
"No, it's actually good for the body and mind."
"What's the use? Sitting every day makes a day."
"Isn't it the same with playing mahjong? I sit here all day long and play."
"You will raise your eyebrows."
"It's true. Why are you talking about it?" Xu Qing said matter-of-factly: "I didn't have games before, so I would play marbles all day long. When it's time to play, I can even grab a piece of paper and play all afternoon."
"..."
Xu Wenbin took a sip of wine and ate two bites of food without speaking to him.
Since Xu Qing became financially independent, it has been difficult to take care of him, not to mention that he is now married and has a marriage certificate.
Although we haven’t had a wedding ceremony yet, in the current environment, getting a certificate is more significant than having a wine ceremony... Some people keep everything simple, and there are many travel weddings and so on. Young people get married in various ways.
They don't have any in-laws either... If there's a wedding, it's just a formality for these two to have fun.
Xu Wenbin felt a little regretful that he didn’t have any in-laws...
If Xu Qing knew his regret and couldn't help but comfort him: It's okay, you might have poached him sometime.
After thousands of years, there is not so much emphasis on them, they are all historical figures.
After Zhou Suzhi and Jiang He finished eating, they sat down for a while to drink a bowl of soup. Seeing that the father and son were still eating vegetables, drinking and chatting slowly, they ignored them and wiped their mouths, sat down on the sofa and watched TV together.
After drinking two-thirds of a bottle of wine, Zhou Suzhi put it away and prevented the two of them from drinking any more.
Xu Qing's face was a little red, but her eyes were sparkling. The more she drank, the more energetic she became. She put down the bowl, cleared the table, and came out of the kitchen humming a song.
It seems to the old couple that they have already started their married life, but the reality is that they are still a little behind.
Just a little bit different.
"Go back."
"Um."
"Be careful on the road."
"Okay auntie."
When she came out of the house, she was blown by the cold wind. Xu Qing wrapped herself in clothes and asked, "You still call me aunt?"
"I'll change my story after I've had a drink, and I'll have to serve tea, and then I'll have to pay for the change."
"?"
Xu Qing didn't expect her to be so smart, "How did you know?"
"I checked online."
Jiang He walked in front with his hands behind his back, shaking his head proudly, "You want to trick me, there's no way."
"Are you happy today?"
"yes."
"Um……"
As he walked to the gate while talking, a figure from Hei Buliuqiu came towards him. Qin Hao was so cold that he was so cold that he stooped over and walked over wrapped in clothes.
It wasn't that cold when I went out, but the temperature dropped too much at night.
"Going back with your girlfriend?" he greeted casually. The two of them were tightly wrapped in hats and scarves. If they weren't so familiar, they wouldn't be able to recognize each other.
"No." Xu Qing shook his head.
"Um?"
Qin Hao was a little surprised, and then he heard Xu Qing continue: "Go back with my wife."
"..."
Damn it.
Qin Hao said angrily: "Who doesn't seem to have any? Look at how bad you are, I just sent my wife back."
"No, that's your girlfriend." Xu Qing took Jiang He's arm and said, "I am your wife."
