Concubine [Slow Wear] - Chapter 363

So, at the dinner table the next day, Xu Ma told Lin Xianxian about this.

Lin Xianxian has been listening to Xu Ma’s ditty a lot in the past two days. When she heard Xu Ma’s proposal, she was a little surprised, but not too surprised. After all, in Xu Mengyuan’s memory, Xu Ma was indeed able to do such a thing things people.

Ask Qu Tianlei to go home for the New Year? Lin Xianxian touched this matter and felt that it was very pleasing to the eyes. She didn’t care about this matter. During the Chinese New Year, it would be good to have a handsome guy to raise her eyes. Is Xu Ma thinking too well? Now, whether people want to come or not is another matter.

“Then you won’t call and ask!” Xu Ma raised her chin at Lin Xianxian and motioned her to eat quickly, “Hurry up and eat, and call when you’re done eating. If you get in touch, it’s time to say a New Year’s gift to them. received.”

In fact, Lin Xianxian called both Shougang and the neighborhood committee yesterday, but he called Shougang and got the news that Qu Tianlei was on leave yesterday. He called the neighborhood committee and said that he went out early in the morning, so he didn’t get in touch with him, but he When the neighborhood committee answered the phone, the aunt said that if she was in a hurry, when Xiao Qu came back, she could help her convey it.

Lin Xianxian thought that she was not in a hurry, not to mention that it would be more sincere to say thanks in person, so after rejecting the aunt’s kindness, she hung up the phone.

Although Lin Xianxian said that there was no need to trouble her, she was in no hurry, but the aunt told him that his partner had called him after learning that Qu Tianlei was back, but it was almost dark at that time, and the phone booth was After closing, Qu Tianlei did not return the call to Lin Xianxian.

Because Qu Tianlei has no habit of explaining his private affairs to outsiders, people around him still don’t know that he has returned to being single.

And after breakfast, Lin Xianxian wouldn’t call Qu Tianlei right away. The reason was very simple. She would have to wait until Qu Tianlei arrived at the unit or the neighborhood committee went to work in the morning before she could contact anyone.

However, Qu Tianlei called her back first. He is still on vacation today. Yesterday, he bought some gifts and sent them to his home. After the change, he has been helping his uncle’s house. Of course, in order not to let his If the ingredients had any bad influence on the uncle, he put down the things and left.

After leaving, he didn’t want to go back to the hut where he was alone, so he strolled around the city at will, and then took the last bus back to Hulin Hutong.

When he learned last night that the little girl called him, Qu Tianlei actually felt a warm feeling in his heart, although he probably guessed why she called him.

At that time, Qu Tianlei, who was wearing cotton-padded clothes and smoking outside the door, suddenly laughed after answering the aunt’s greeting. He lowered his eyes, took a deep breath, and then pressed the cigarette end out. , gathered up his clothes, opened the door and returned to his hut, shutting all the festive noises of those festivals outside the door.

The next day, when the phone booth opened, Qu Tianlei put on his coat, came over, and called the Xu family.

At that time, Lin Xianxian just happened to be sitting in the living room calling her auntie, so as to kill the waiting time. When she heard the phone ring, she put down her work, wiped her hands, and ran to the phone, riding on one leg and kneeling. In the chair, while picking up the handset to answer the phone, turn around and sit on the chair. “Hello, who is it?” Her voice was very soft and leisurely.

“It’s me.” Hearing her voice like a bird singing happily, Qu Tianlei’s voice also brought a faint smile.

“Hee hee, it’s you! I was just looking for you.” Lin Xianxian was in an inexplicably good mood today. This was a kind of pleasure dominated by her body. Anyway, today she felt that the air was beautiful and the flowers and plants were beautiful. Seeing everything feels very satisfying, “Thank you for the New Year’s gift!”

“Have you received the shawl?” He bought the shawl specially for the little girl. When the supply and marketing agency saw the red smear, he somehow felt that it should suit her complexion.

“I received it, but it was taken by my mother as her own. She has a crush on you now, and has praised you in my dad’s ears for two days!” Lin Xianxian clasped her nails while talking to Qu Tian. Lei chatting.

“Really?” This was really an unexpected joy, and Qu Tianlei felt a little ironic, “Have you eaten that box of cakes?” The Jingdezhen tea set was indeed bought by Qu Tianlei for Dad Xu.

“No, it was locked by my mother in the big cabinet in her house. She said that it is such a good cake, and I have to save it for the Chinese New Year and eat it!” Lin Xianxian felt very resentful when she said this, but It’s not that she can’t eat the cake that Qu Tianlei mailed. That type of pastry is not to her taste. She likes the current one. It’s packed in a big iron box with a round lid on it. That kind of biscuits, but Ma Xu didn’t even give her these biscuits, so she was very sad! Although she really let it go, she couldn’t eat much. After all, it was food, but it was the feeling of being restricted from snacks… hey! Lin Xianxian sighed and directly sighed Qu Tianlei.

He had also heard the little girl say before that the resentment of the biscuits being controlled, at this time, she could naturally get to the point where she sighed.

“So are you coming to my house for the Chinese New Year?” Lin Xianxian asked while fiddling with the microphone cable.

“Huh? What?” This sudden question made Qu Tianlei a little unresponsive.

Lin Xianxian leaned on the chair and sat down her body, which had just slipped, and then explained to Qu Tianlei the reason for her question, “I just invited you to come to my house for the Spring Festival. My mother specially asked me today.”

This reminded Qu Tianlei of Dad Xu’s invitation. He smiled and asked, “What about you? Are you welcome?”

“Of course!” Lin Xianxian spat out the answer without thinking much. She had already digested the resentment of being rejected. She is quite tolerant in this regard. After all, she also knows that this kind of feeling is There’s no way to force it, and Qu Tianlei doesn’t hate her, or doesn’t like her, so she doesn’t resist having a relationship with him, but she won’t be as close as she is, at most. It is to maintain the kind of relationship of a good friend who has nothing to do with each other, “My eldest brother and second brother will be back during the Chinese New Year. Let’s play and eat delicious food together!”

Qu Tianlei didn’t want to go, but Lin Xianxian’s description of ‘playing and eating delicious food together’ made him a little moved. Although the words were very simple, they also evoked some imagined images. It felt good to go, but in the end, he still rejected the invitation, mainly because of his composition, but he couldn’t say that, so he came up with the reason to go to work during the new year.

“That’s it!” Lin Xianxian didn’t mean to force it because it was inconvenient for others to come here. After that, the two chatted a few words casually and ended the call.

After Xu Ma came back, Lin Xianxian explained Qu Tianlei’s reason. Xu Ma was a little bit enthusiastic, but also said that work was more important.

However, thinking that the young man is out alone, it is not easy to get some food for the New Year, so when the Xu family was preparing the dumplings for the New Year, they also made one for Qu Tianlei. I eat dumplings, but Dad Xu and Mom Xu are both northerners, so they are used to eating dumplings during Chinese New Year.

These dumplings were taken by the soldiers in the Trouble Regiment who were returning to the capital during the Chinese New Year holiday. After all, given the current postal delivery conditions, if you go to the post office, when the dumplings arrive in Qu Tianlei’s hands, it is irrelevant whether you can eat them or not. a certain thing.

Qu Tianlei also did not expect that the Xu family would actually entrust someone to send him New Year dumplings from all over the world. Although their family has never had the habit of eating dumplings during Chinese New Year since he was a child, but in the capital, almost every family around them will make dumplings for the New Year. Dumplings, the heart sent by the Xu family, can be said to instantly fill Qu Tianlei’s sense of lack, so he ate the dumplings seriously and sweetly.

But what he misses most is the brown sugar glutinous rice cake made by his mother. Unfortunately, in this life, he will never be able to eat it again… With the dumplings in his mouth, Qu Tianlei’s nose is a little blocked, and his head is almost buried in the bowl. The fingers holding the chopsticks were slightly white.

In fact, Qu Tianlei’s parents died in the second year of decentralization, but Qu Tianlei was kept in the dark until he overthrew Fu Changhai, and found his parents in the documents of the Revolutionary Committee. He went to the lower ground and went there for a trip in person, only to find out that his father and mother were long gone.

Qu Tianlei’s life, although only twenty years old, has gone through several ups and downs. After surviving the blow and grief of the death of his parents, his state has become more and more like a settled wolf king. There is a deep and fighting spirit, but these are not easy to show people. It can be said that Lin Xianxian can express a love in his heart like this. Of course, it is inseparable from the help of the right time and place, but also It’s a little patient.

A few years ago, Brother Xu and Second Brother Xu both came back. The Xu family was able to have a reunion year this year. Everyone in the family was very happy. Lin Xianxian also used her camera to take a set of New Year’s photo albums for the whole family. Time was so short, the fifteenth day of the first lunar month had not yet passed, and they sent off Brother Xu and Second Brother Xu one after another.

Time flies by in the ordinary daily life. In this year, the influence of Lin Xianxian’s works gradually radiated from Beijing to the whole country. The biography of heroes was also published by carefully selected publishing houses. The first edition was launched nationwide. There was a wave of popularity, and whoever had a copy of “Biographies of Heroes” at that time was the envy of young people.

Although the purchasing power of books is still relatively weak in this era, Lin Xianxian’s book is relatively a bestseller, and her small treasury has exceeded 10,000, and she has become a glorious household of 10,000 yuan.

Xu’s father and Xu’s mother also did not expect that the daughter’s unreliable career at first sounded so rich, and the money earned was decent. Although Xu’s mother did not go out to show off that her daughter became a household of 10,000 yuan, But every day she goes out, her face is full of red light. After all, her daughter is now a big writer who has published books.
