Chapter 192 Waiting for people who shouldn't come
With a beautiful mood and expectation, Ding Chi returned home on the 27th day of the twelfth lunar month.
The reason why I feel so good is not only because the company has been developing smoothly recently, nor is it just because I go home two days in advance, but the most important thing is to wait for my beloved. The two have already agreed that she will visit the Ding family on the 28th day of the 12th lunar month, and Ding Chi will visit her house on the sixth day of the 12th lunar month.
Last week, Ding Chi had already notified his family about this matter. Ding Shoucheng and his wife were so happy that they were full of joy, and Chi Shumei was even more prepared.
As soon as Ding Chi entered the house, he found the changes in his home. Although it was still the same house, although the overall layout had not changed, some details and decorations were obviously improved. If the house was like a small boss before, but now it has the feeling of a middle-aged boss, of course it should also reflect the style of a female financial officer.
Ding Hui jumped closer, her gestures and tone were exaggerated: "Brother, have you seen it? Is this specification so grand enough? Does it look like welcoming a female star?"
"Xiaohui, stop making trouble, work quickly." Chi Shumei smiled and pointed at her daughter.
"Oh, I prefer boys over girls. In order to visit my baby son and girlfriend, I actually treat my daughter as a servant. I am so old-fashioned..." Ding Hui sighed and picked up the rag again.
Chi Shumei immediately came to her son, and while taking the bag, she stared at her son's face: "Xiaochi, who is the girlfriend? Have you ever seen her? Female colleague? Female classmate? Or female..."
Ding Chi sat on the sofa casually and smiled "Hehe": "You guess?"
"I guess..." Chi Shumei raised her finger, "Let me talk about her female colleague Xiao Dan. This child is not bad either. She is energetic and capable. She is designated to help you in her career. However, there is one thing you should pay attention to. Women are too capable and have disadvantages. They are easy to suppress men. Men cannot let women suppress them."
"Mom, what do you and dad say?" Ding Hui cut it short at the right time.
"Just you talk too much, that's not the same thing at all." After retorting to her daughter, Chi Shumei continued to guess, "Actually, Li Mengxue is pretty good, high school classmates and family are OK, and the two families are alike. The key is that the child has a good personality and knows the big and the small ones. Why do I think you have a long relationship recently? The child will not come to play at home during the holidays, and I didn't listen to you mention her."
Ding Hui answered for her brother: "If you get together for too long, your relationship will naturally change easily. If you don't believe it, one day you and your father will be separated. It is designated either the man cheats or the woman has an affair."
"You stinky girl, why does the words change in your mouth?" Chi Shumei walked quickly towards her daughter and raised her arms.
"This is human nature, you can do it or not." Ding Hui kept talking, but her steps were surprisingly fast. Before she finished speaking, she entered the study room and inserted it into the door.
"You, you." Chi Shumei returned to her son's side and continued to guess Daye, "But what Hui said makes sense. It's not a big deal for her to separate from her husband and wife. She should be closer, and it's the same thing to do when she gets married. In this way, the singing girl and the teacher are quite suitable, look..."
"You asked your son to step on two boats." A crack was opened in the study door, and Ding Hui's voice came out in time.
"You stinky girl, don't you think I..."
Just when Chi Shumei was about to ask her daughter, Ding Shoucheng came back and the family entered the meal.
The next morning, the Ding family dressed up early and waited for the distinguished guests to come. Except for Ding Shoucheng who maintained a certain degree of reserve, the other three ran out of the house one after another and went outside the community to look around from time to time.
It was eight o'clock, nine o'clock, and it was already ten o'clock inadvertently, but the whole family felt that time was passing very slowly, and they were anxiously waiting for the distinguished guests to come.
Ding Chi wanted to call to ask, but was stopped by his mother: "You must be patient and sincere, how long will it take to make the girl unhappy."
OK, wait, the whole family agreed that it was still nowhere to be seen at noon.
Although I didn't agree on the specific points, I still had to ask, otherwise I would be too confused. So Ding Chi called out the number and dialed it out.
The phone is not accessible, so it's the case when you call three times in a row.
"It shouldn't be too far. There are several road sections that are almost at the county town without any signal." Ding Shoucheng gave a reasonable explanation.
The whole family continued to wait, while Chi Shumei was talking about the reception and the dining process was coming.
Waiting with an empty stomach until after 2 pm, the distinguished guest had not appeared and could not contact him on his phone. Ding Chi couldn't help but feel anxious.
"I'll go out to see you again. If you haven't arrived yet, I'll call Teacher Li to ask." Ding Chi said, reaching out to open the door.
"Brother Chi, thank you!" A panting red figure stood outside the door.
Is it her? Why is it her? Ding's family asked a question. This was too unexpected. I never thought about it that it would be Zhen Aiqing.
"Uncle, aunt, Xiaohui, happy New Year!" Zhen Aiqing said, and had already stepped into the house.
Despite being surprised, Ding Shoucheng quickly returned to normal and smiled: "He came here as soon as he came, and he brought so many things."
Chi Shumei immediately recovered and reached out to take the gift box: "Aiqing, it's cold, come into the house quickly. Have some hot tea first, aunt go to cook immediately, and the whole family will wait for you."
"Brother, why are you doing so stupid?" Ding Hui poked his brother with a playful look on his face.
Ding Chi then came to his senses and glanced coldly.
"No, aunt, my dad is still waiting downstairs, we have to rush back. Now we are here to pay a special wish for our early years. My dad will come again after the New Year. Thank you, thank you brother Chi!" Zhen Aiqing said, slapped Ding Chi's shoulders ambiguously, turned around and left the door.
What's the situation? It seems that it's not a problem. The Ding family was stunned on the spot.
"Crack," the footsteps gradually faded away.
Chi Shumei realized the rudeness and hurriedly chased her out: "Aiqing, let's go after dinner, let your dad come up and eat together, we'll wait..."
"Mom, you're back, it's not her that you're waiting for." Ding Chi shouted and rushed out of the room.
"Wait...who is waiting for that?" Chi Shumei quickly turned around and asked urgently.
Ding Shoucheng and Ding Hui also surrounded him, staring at Ding Chi.
Ding Chi took the phone with a face.
"Dingling" rings, the ringtone rings in time.
Monday. Seeing the name on the screen, Ding Chi immediately connected: "Monday, you are here..."
"Xiao Chi, I'm really sorry, the plan cannot keep up with the changes." An apology came from the phone.
"What's wrong?" Ding Chi asked urgently, and couldn't help feeling uneasy.
The other party adjusted his tone: "Xiao Chi, that's right. There was no activity during the Spring Festival, but in the middle of the night, Teacher Li received a call yesterday, asking us to participate in a condolence exchange group organized by the Ministry to go abroad to comfort the vast number of workers fighting on the front line. It was too late at that time, so I didn't call you and didn't have time to send text messages. Later, I was on the plane and I just got off the plane."
Hearing this reason, Ding Chi felt at ease, but was also very disappointed: "When will you come back? When will you arrive at my house?"
"I can't say it right now. You apologize to uncles, aunts, and Xiaohui on behalf of me, and wish the whole family a happy New Year!" The voice on the phone has become hoarse at this point.
Although the three people next to them didn't hear the contents on their phones clearly, they were already very clear: they didn't come but waited for the people they shouldn't come.
