Good Luck in the Year of the Pig - Chapter 1

    In December, the cold air swept through the air like strong winds and showers, and many parts of the country officially entered the cold winter.

     Qixia Town is located in the southwest corner of Caifeng City. As a suburban town in the prosperous provincial capital, Qixia has developed very well in recent years, with wide roads, light rails, subways, shopping malls, etc. With the improvement of development, there are more and more young people coming and going on the streets. Next to the starting station of Metro Line 15, there was a loud drum and gong in front of the shopping mall where the third anniversary celebration was held, and businesses from all walks of life showed their strengths and worked hard to absorb the passenger flow.

    It was cold and windy, and it was only after three o’clock in the afternoon that fine snowflakes floated in the sky, sandwiched by the cool rain, which made passers-by shrink their heads. In the snowstorm, the staff in red pig doll costumes held a stack of leaflets in their hands, and they handed them one when they saw them. Unfortunately, everyone was cold today, their hands were tucked into their pockets, and they ignored the leaflets handed by the big red pig. . Unknowingly, more than half an hour later, four o’clock came quietly, the snow was still not in the weather, everywhere was gray and wet, and the sky was as dark as night.

    At four o’clock, the big red pig turned around and got into the staff rest area of ​​the mall. He quickly took off the huge red pig’s head, revealing a very decent and outstanding appearance under the pig’s head, with fair skin Wa, with long eyebrows and slender eyes, a high nose and red mouth, slightly raised eyebrows, slightly upturned lips, and smiled without saying a word. In the words of a part-time colleague, it is the hue that can only be found in CG illustrations. With such an unreal appearance, you can get a lot of fans in the entertainment industry just by looking good, but working hard with them as a handyman is really a waste.

    “It’s time to change shifts.” As soon as he spoke, the young man’s voice was as good as his face, extremely pleasant and comfortable.

    “Suddenly it’s so cold, I even dared to wear short sleeves last week. I really don’t want to go outside to dry.” Colleagues complained.

    “It’s okay to wear a pig’s head dress, it’s quite cold.”

    “That’s better than wearing a doll costume in summer.”

    Lu Ying handed the pig head suit to the colleague who took over, put on a coat, turned around and hurried out with a large bag of things. Not long after, a black electric car came out from the back alley of the mall.

    The sudden dark night made the road that should be extending in all directions blocked, and the electric car drove in twists and turns. When they arrived at the gate of the kindergarten, many children had already been picked up. Lu Ying hurriedly parked and walked outside the iron gate, looking at the children waiting sporadically with schoolbags in the small courtyard of the kindergarten. He couldn’t help laughing and shouting: “Mr. Wang, I’m here to pick up the cub. I’m sorry, it’s a little late today.”

    Mr. Wang smiled when she saw him, and quickly pulled the little boy who was playing with his friends: “Dad, you are too polite, it is not too late for more than half an hour. Today It’s raining, the weather is cold and the road is slippery. You must be careful when you ride a bike with a child. Cub, your father is here to pick you up.”

    “Thank you, I will pay attention. Goodbye, teacher.”

    The little boy smiled and waved: “Teacher, see you tomorrow.” With a short stature, he squatted in front of Lu Ying’s car. Lu Ying put a hat on him and carried his son slowly on foot On the way home: “What did you do in kindergarten today?”

    On the way, Lu Ying chatted with her son.

    “Play, play games in the playground in the morning, and play games in the classroom when I wake up at noon.”

    “Have fun?”

    “I’m happy. I ate well today, and the teacher praised me.”

    Lu Ying raised the corners of her mouth and smiled straight to the bottom of her eyes: “Cubzai is great every day.” Like him, his son’s biggest advantage is that he can eat, not picky eaters, he used to worry about it, no Thinking that since he started kindergarten, eating has become the biggest advantage of the little cubs. The teachers all like Lu cubs who are never picky eaters and never have leftovers.

    The house rented by the father and son is located between the kindergarten and the shopping mall where he works. This is a local community that is still under construction. Because the house does not have a real estate license, there are too many drawbacks and inconveniences to trade. Compared with the expensive commercial buildings next to it, the houses in this community are not only much cheaper, but the rent is also cheaper. Of course, the environment is also chaotic. There are also many less formal private remodeled rental houses. Since Lu Ying moved out of Qixia Mountain this year, he has lived in a small single room. The house is about 15 square meters, including a one-meter-five bed, square table and chairs, toilet, kitchenette, simple wardrobe, and it is fully functional.

    “Dad, what are we having for dinner tonight?” Cub, who was at least a lap fatter than his classmates, returned home and immediately asked. Although he ate dinner in kindergarten before school, he was still hungry.

    Lu Ying hurriedly went to the kitchen to cook: “There are vegetables and meat, which will definitely make you full. You can play with toys for a while.”

    The kindergarten seldom assigns homework, and the cub is detained and cannot run out alone, and there is no TV at home, so he can only play with toys, or paint with crayons, Build a tiny house out of blocks.

    Lu Ying quickly boiled a large pot of tomato shredded pork and egg noodles, and also pasted two large pieces of chopped green onion minced meat pancakes with fried shredded potatoes and carrots, all of which are time-consuming eating . Father and son snorted at the only small table to enjoy dinner, no one said a word, just buried their heads to eat. Not to mention so exciting.

    “Dad, I’m full. Look at my belly, hee hee~ Yuan Yo!” He licked the bottom of the bowl and swallowed the last bite of the burrito. The cub picked up his clothes and patted his belly, smiling brightly.

    Lu Ying tapped on her little belly seriously: “Is this watermelon ripe? I want to eat it.”

    “No, I’m not familiar! Gluck~ This is my stomach, I can’t eat it. Hmph, you are such a confused dad!” He rolled his eyes helplessly.

    Lu Ying replied with a big white eye: “If I dare to say that I am a confused father, I will not tell you the story of Peppa Pig in the future. I didn’t learn it well.”

    “No, no, I’m sorry, Dad, I was wrong. Dad is the smartest dad in the world.” The fat boy immediately hugged his dad’s thigh and acted like a spoiled child, his small eyes crooked with a smile The curved crescent moon looks like a father.

    Lu Ying nodded with satisfaction: “Dad is going to work. Are you playing at home or working with your father?”

    If someone else’s house encountered such cold weather, how could they take the child out, but Lu Ying still asked the child’s opinion.

    Zizai jumped up immediately: “I want to work with Daddy today.”

    “Okay, put on your little hat and go!” Lu Ying gave orders.

    “It’s raining outside, I’m going to put on my Ultraman raincoat.” Zaizai excitedly took out a small blue raincoat and happily went out with his father.

    Lu Ying’s work starts at 6 o’clock in the evening. She works part-time at the pizza shop in front of the still-built community to deliver food. The more rainy it is, the better the business. He wore the uniform uniform of the pizza shop, accompanied by the slight rain, and delivered orders from house to house near the community. Zaizai stayed in the pizza shop and waited for him. It was impossible for him to take the child into the car when he ran takeout. He had the courage, but the boss didn’t. Who is the boss looking for? Allowing him to leave the child in the store while he is at work is the greatest tolerance.

    At first, he didn’t think about bringing his children out during working hours, which is easy to be disliked. But when he just moved out of the village, he thought his son who had always been “independent” could stay at home and wait for him, but he didn’t expect to see the fat boy’s crying face when he returned from get off work. Instead, he went out with his son a lot later, and the boy became strong again, and occasionally offered to stay at home to play, expressing that he did not want to go out.

    The father and son went downstairs hand in hand, and met the next-door neighbor’s family of three at the corner. When both sides met, they kept their eyes open at the same time, it was obvious that the relationship was not in harmony. When Lu Ying walked a little further, the greasy-looking man with a big belly spit: “A big man draws eyeliner all day long, and the demon is so disgusting! Son, don’t play with that little beast, that kind of poor man. You shouldn’t be in town.”

    Mothers also laugh: “Most children in single-parent families have problems, and children without mothers are uneducated.”

    “He’s as fat as a pig, so I won’t play with him.” The child agreed proudly.

    The family of three felt superior and went away.

    Lu Ying, who turned a deaf ear, patted the fat boy’s head proudly. Even if his son is a pig, he is the cutest and best looking little pig.

    Unlike some people, ugly as a pig.
