Chapter 1188 New Year (Part 2)
"Oh, you girl is so kind? Everyone is a neighbor." Sister Zhang held the pot in both hands but couldn't make it free, so she could only watch her put the bowl of fish balls on the pot she was holding.
Hu Lina didn't care. After putting the fish balls, she also strode forward with her own things, for fear that the other party would come up and return the fish balls.
When I just returned to my residence, I found that it was not my mother and Xiao Zhang in the room, but Jiang Zhihuan, who had not seen him for a long time, and his cousin Jing Songheng, and there were also the big and small bags of New Year’s goods they bought on the table.
"You guys are..."
"Come for the New Year."
"ha?"
"The canteen is closed at night during the New Year. Cousin, just watch me take in these food portions. Do you want me to be a young man alone?" Jing Songheng said pitifully everywhere, but Hu Lina knew that this was an excuse.
He then looked at Jiang Zhihuan with a look of "What's wrong with you?"
"Well, as Lao Jing's good brother, his relatives are my relatives. For the food I brought, you should take me in, right?"
Listening to their tone and begging, Hu Lina sighed softly and said helplessly: "Are you afraid that you will starve to death during the New Year before you turn to me?"
Jiang Zhihuan touched his nose, Jing Songheng's eyes were sloppy, Hu Lina looked at the pair of fresh foods again, and asked again: "Have you ever thought about whether I could not cook? Cousin, have you seen that I cook by myself in the past years?"
Jing Songheng: "..."
It seems that there really isn't.
"When you ran away all the way, wasn't it good?"
"You asked me to bake here? Do these conditions allow it? In the residential area, you are afraid that someone would just drown my house from the downstairs."
"There is another thing I want to confirm again." Hu Lina spoke again, looking at her mother who had been sitting obediently on the sofa since she was just now, and seeing her handcuffed hands holding a piece of characteristic beef jerky and slowly gnawing, her eyes occasionally fell on the three people opposite and still looked a little coveted.
However, now I should have a certain sense of Raptors and feel like seeking profit and avoiding harm, so I was jealous and continued to lower my head to eat beef jerky.
"There is a one-bedroom apartment here, and the kitchen is not big. You are too small to come here. Are you sure you are here for the New Year?"
Look at it now that she entered the house, his mother and two older men were basically filling the living room.
"It doesn't matter if my mother is so lucky. If she suddenly goes crazy during dinner one day and hurts you, she will not hide in the place." Hu Lina felt that she had to make these words clear.
"Then... how about going back to Base No. 1 together? I still live in the place where we used to live." Jing Songheng seemed to be waiting for her words, and as soon as Hu Lina finished speaking, he took the conversation.
Her cousin is as stubborn as her mother, his aunt.
I looked for my mother alone, and without saying a word, I moved to S City to live without any hesitation.
Just as his father once mentioned Hu Lina's mother's past, the family was obviously not satisfied with Hu Lina's father's military rank was too low and had no family background, but he never wanted to deny her sweetheart.
As a result, she said without hesitation that she hurt her father and brother and left to be with each other. Fortunately, this marriage seemed to be happy. Otherwise, Jing Songheng's father once said that he was afraid that his sister would end up turning upside down and that she would be an unhappy ending. When she came back with bruises, what kind of mentality would they have to have?
At that time, will they point at each other's nose and curse her before accepting her, or will they say that their family is her eternal backer without any grudges?
But in the end, his grandfather and his father did not wait for his daughter or sister to come back, and only this granddaughter and niece who came with a full letter of apology and almost entrusted with the orphan.
Now, Hu Lina is also his only remaining relative living in this world.
"But my mother is now..." Hu Lina has also taken up tasks since she took them back and fed her mother Malatang. Now, although it is only one step away from awakening, the other party will suddenly start to hurt people.
"What are you wearing handcuffs like now? Just lock it in our house and don't let her go out at will."
"It might be better..." Even so, she didn't dare to say enough.
"Base No. 1 is also a mixed zombie and human being. There are not many people in the inner city where we used to live now. It's impossible for us to go out for the New Year and take care of it... Aunt." Jing Songheng looked at Hu Lina's mother and finally said this.
As if she felt something, her mother also looked up at Jing Songheng, and her head was tilted and she lowered her head as if she couldn't recognize who it was.
"Also, grandpa and my parents' tombs, should you go together during the Chinese New Year? Take your mother with you..."
"Okay." When Hu Lina mentioned this, she finally no longer had any other reasons. She looked back at her mother who knew nothing. She remembered that her grandfather occasionally looked around old photos, and occasionally stared in a daze on the photo of her mother when she was young.
She even heard the conversation between his grandfather and her uncle-
[You said - if I didn't care about them and transferred Xiao Hu back to the imperial capital, wouldn't it be like this now?]
Just like during the Chinese New Year in previous years, my mother would stand on the empty balcony and whisper to her father-
[You said, when we went back a few years ago, I had a better temper. Will my father forgive me?]
Their mistake will last forever...
"The business of this stall has been quite good in the past two years..."
It was difficult to wait until New Year's Eve and there was no need to open a store. In the morning, the exchanges of each base were still open, so Mei Shi and Mingyi also visited several exchanges of the base. Mei Shi bought a lot of small things, but what she didn't expect was that these stalls with incense, candles and paper money were also extremely lively.
"At the end of the year, we naturally have to burn something for the people below."
After all this, Mei Shi naturally understood the liveliness of this stall.
"Hey, you said you don't feel anything about this, why do you think about it during festivals? Boss, give me another stack of silver ingots!"
At this time, someone in the queue to buy incense, candles and paper money shouted.
"Boss, do you have a paper crystal core? You are not keeping pace with the times!"
"Put it, these are all orthodox hard currency. Do you still have zombies below?! Do you want to pass?!" The boss directly spoke up to those who still demanded too much, "I love to buy, but I don't buy it!"
For some reason, even though it was a funny scene, Mei Shi felt a little sad as she looked at it, and did not show her usual smirk. She reached out to hook Gou Mingyi's sleeve and whispered: "Let's go back."
Mingyi realized that Mei Shi was in a bad mood, so he took her to make a few more transactions and said that until the things in her hand could not be stuffed, Mingyi put them in the space, Mei Shi felt better and happily bought a "big broom" full of candied haws from others and walked back happily.
Mei Shi originally thought that her mood that had just recovered would continue to improve, but seeing Jia Wei and Zhang Yao almost had the same style, carrying large and small items in their hands, and when they stood at the door like a door god, Mei Shi instinctively told her - no, yes, okay, things.
"Hello, Boss Mei!"
Almost the moment they saw Mei Shi, they both bowed at Mei Shi with uniform smiles, and then showed a bright smile like a flower.
At that moment, Mei Shi only felt that the smiles of these two people looked very familiar.
It seems like the feeling of déjà vu when a new son-in-law comes to flatter his mother-in-law in a family drama =.=

Mei Shi: Dame! Shut up, don’t talk! You two pigs!
Zhang Yao & Jia Wei:…
