Chapter 272 Jumping to 180cm
As soon as she left the terminal, Jiang Xiyue wrapped herself tightly in her down jacket and put on her hat.
The fur collar made of rabbit fur covers most of the face, and only the lips are visible from the front.
"Zhou Zhou, why do you say we should celebrate the New Year?"
"It's just stupid carbon-based creatures celebrating their home planet, which has completed another orbit in its own star system." When Linzhou said this, his tone was very casual, as if he was talking about something very casual.
Only children care about the Chinese New Year. Adults will only feel that the festive atmosphere is becoming less and less, and there are more and more troubles.
But Jiang Xiyue was very dissatisfied after hearing this explanation. She hugged Linzhou's arm and whispered to herself.
"I think that a person's life is a story. The Chinese New Year is a summary and review of the whole year, and then it will carry on the future."
"You are right." Linzhou spoke much more gently in response to Jiang Xiyue's words.
After saying that, Linzhou looked around, trying to find his father who came to pick him up at the airport, but as soon as he raised his head, several drivers surrounded him.
"Let's go? Where to?"
"Thank you, someone picked me up." Linzhou waved his hand to refuse the taxi driver who came to solicit passengers, and walked towards his father firmly with Jiang Xiyue.
This is the little girl's second time here, so the surrounding environment is quite familiar to her.
Walking behind his father, Linzhou thought for a moment, then spoke, "Dad, what are you looking at?"
Following his father's gaze, Linzhou happened to see several beautiful young ladies, and suddenly he didn't know what to say. This was understandable, but not agreeable.
So Linzhou started to get close to his father right away.
"I went back and told my mother."
"No, how about I tell Yueyue about your childhood?" Father Lin retracted his gaze and looked at his son, with a strange expression on his face.
It’s like... If I can’t deal with your mother, can I not deal with you?
Seeing that a father-son deterrence system was about to be formed, Linzhou laughed and said, "It's okay, just watch yourself. I'll take Yueyue to wait in the car. It's freezing outside."
"Go ahead, I'll smoke a cigarette and then we can go home." Father Lin waved his hand and was about to drive Lin Zhou away with disgust.
But he still called Jiang Xiyue over.
"Yueyue, are you tired from the journey?"
"I'm not tired, Dad." Jiang Xiyue lifted her hat a little and looked up at her future father-in-law.
Although it is called the future, it is actually no different from the present, so she had no psychological barriers in calling him "Dad".
But the person who calls does not have it, but the person who is called does.
Father Lin, who was standing there, suddenly felt a little at a loss. He felt like the first time he held Susu in his arms in the hospital, excited but a little at a loss.
When Linzhou dragged Jiang Xiyue into the car, the old father, smoking a cigarette, took out a red envelope from his pocket.
The thickness is about one thousand yuan.
But the old father, who drew his sword and looked around in confusion, could only light the cigarette in his hand. There was still some wind in the airport, and the cigarette in Lin's father's hand was basically taken by him and then by the wind.
If the red envelope is not given out, it means that the courtesy is not sufficient. Money is not the point. Even if there is only 300 yuan in it, it should be given out when the other party changes his mind.
Although it was given at the time of engagement, the home visits were not counted at that time. Besides, even if it was not money for changing one's name, it should be New Year's money.
Linzhou, who was sitting in the car, naturally saw the red envelope in his old father's hand.
"Yueyue, it seems like we ran too fast and didn't even get the red envelope..."
"Hey, don't think about the red envelopes."
After saying that, the girl lay on Linzhou's legs, held his hand, closed her eyes and prepared to sleep.
When Lin's father got in the car, Jiang Xiyue had already fallen asleep. Looking at his daughter-in-law lying on his son's lap, Lin's father smiled.
"Let her sleep. I'll drive slowly. Hold her for a while so she doesn't fall."
"Well, let's go. I'm hungry." Linzhou nodded and put his hand on Jiang Xiyue's shoulder to protect her a little.
★·❤·□·❤·☆
Father Lin drove very steadily, although slowly, but he still parked the car downstairs of his house before 11 o'clock in the evening.
Looking at the girl who was still sleeping in his son's arms, Father Lin threw the car keys to Lin Zhou and said, "Remember to lock the car when you get up. I'll take your luggage up first."
After saying that, Father Lin got out of the car, went to the trunk and carried the luggage upstairs.
About ten minutes later, Jiang Xiyue sat up, rubbing her eyes, and said sleepily, "Zhou Zhou, has our dad finished smoking?"
"We've finished smoking and are home now. You're sleeping soundly." Linzhou looked at the saliva marks on his trouser legs with a helpless expression, but still reached out and touched the other's head.
After looking around, Jiang Xiyue confirmed that they had arrived downstairs. The girl rubbed her eyes and prepared to get off the car. Of course, she still explained why she felt sleepy.
"Last night, you went to bed first and I went to paint. I didn't go to bed until dawn."
"Don't do this next time. Girls will get wrinkles if they stay up late." Linzhou replied softly and prepared to get off the car, but as soon as he raised his legs, he found that his legs seemed to have disappeared.
It felt like a TV show from the past suddenly disappeared, leaving only snow all over the screen.
It’s terrible, it feels like there are ants crawling.
Jiang Xiyue, who had already gotten out of the car, looked at the person sitting in the car with his right foot hanging in the air and hesitant to put it on the ground, and he knew what was going on.
"Your legs are numb, let me rub them for you."
Having said that, the girl climbed back onto the car and planned to rub Linzhou's calf, but as soon as her hand touched that leg, Linzhou's expression became distorted.
In Jiang Xiyue's eyes, Linzhou's expression was as if he was facing an ancient god directly.
After struggling for a few more minutes, the two got out of the car and went upstairs, although they secretly stayed in the car for about a minute.
As soon as she went upstairs, Jiang Xiyue was hugged by Lin Susu, who was saying something strange.
"Sister-in-law, you can only stay in my room tonight. You are not allowed to sneak out. I will show you a lot of things I have learned recently."
Jiang Xiyue, who was being hugged, answered very seriously.
"Okay, I was in your room last time too, so don't talk nonsense."
What follows is some normal greetings, such as whether the two are tired and how they are doing recently.
After the greetings, Linzhou and Jiang Xiyue sat at the table. Looking at the dishes on the table, Jiang Xiyue turned her head and looked at the two old people, "No need to prepare so many dishes, they are not outsiders."
"That's different. You and I have to take good care of her, otherwise what if Linzhou scolds me?" Mother Lin put the last dish on the table, served Jiang Xiyue a bowl of millet porridge, and made a joke by the way.
Of course, Jiang Xiyue took this kind of joke very seriously, "Don't worry, if Zhou Zhou dares to scold you, I won't forgive him first. Being unfilial is unacceptable anywhere."
Listening to the two women discussing themselves, Linzhou just buried his head in his meal. He couldn't interrupt this topic.
As long as he takes over the conversation, he will have to bear the output of at least two people.
The food my mother cooks at home is definitely delicious. If I eat it suddenly, even if I don’t feel like eating much, I can still finish three bowls of rice.
Jiang Xiyue was very quiet while eating, picking up food for Linzhou from time to time.
As for Lin Susu next to her, she had already finished her meal in no time and went to do her homework.
Looking at the two of them, Father Lin had almost finished his meal. He lit a cigarette and began to educate his son, "I heard that you started a company?"
"Well, I did set up one. After all, the money earned from the works has to be divided, the expenses have to be detailed, and the royalties paid to the cooperating painters have to be taxed. It would be too troublesome if I didn't set up a company ." Linzhou began to explain, a piece of braised pork ribs in his mouth.
After hearing this explanation, Lin's father nodded repeatedly, "It is right to pay taxes. It is glorious to pay taxes..."
"Yes, if you don't hand it in, you will have to go to the small dark room and look out from the inside." Linzhou bit off all the meat on the ribs and complained habitually.
Jiang Xiyue, who was already full, had no choice but to continue eating.
"It's easier to start a club, but we still think we should set up a company. Whether it makes money or not, we should register the copyrights first. Copyright is very important in the cultural industry."
"Well, an old antique like me doesn't understand the things you young people do. Just do it yourself. Don't be fooled and don't do anything illegal." Father Lin gave some instructions and got up to go to the living room to find his wife.
At this time, only Linzhou and Jiang Xiyue were left at the table.
The girl sat there, looking at the boy next to her, "By the way, Zhou Zhou, don't you have those big bathhouses in Northeast China? I happen to be a little tired, how about we go and experience them?"
"I want to go too! I want to go too!" Lin Susu appeared beside the two of them without knowing when... But after she finished speaking, she realized something was wrong and quickly added, "Oh, we can just get two private rooms when the time comes. I won't disturb you at all."
Since Jiang Xiyue proposed it, Linzhou couldn't refuse, so she went out to find her father and extended her hand.
"Give me your bath membership card. Yueyue said she wanted to take a bath and take a look at the bathhouse here."
Hearing this, Father Lin began to search for the membership card in his wallet, then looked at his wife, and suddenly it was as if his Ren and Du meridians were opened, "Wife, let's go too, why should we let these two young people enjoy it."
"That makes sense. It's a good opportunity to do some steam bathing." Lin's mother also stood up.
-------------------
Half an hour later, the whole family went to the nearest bathhouse, which was said to be the most formal one.
In short, from the basement to the top floor, it covers a series of entertainment projects such as catering, video games, hotels, etc.
Even if you stay there for a whole day, it won't be boring.
Sitting in the car, Jiang Xiyue was whispering to Lin Susu, while Lin Zhou was talking to his father who was driving the car, "Dad, how much gas does your car use in a month?"
"Nine." Father Lin answered casually, but Lin Zhou saw his father's little trick.
When I was a child, my dad made this gesture, which meant he was about to lie or had already lied.
It happened that the old man was on the phone with his friend. After Lin's father finished speaking, the voice of the old man's friend came through the speaker, "Stop talking nonsense. There is only seven liters of gas in the tank of your broken car. You pushed the remaining two liters on your body, right?"
Hearing this, Linzhou hurriedly covered Jiang Xiyue's ears so that the other party could not hear clearly.
It is better not to let the little girl hear such words with a strong sense of market economy, but fortunately Jiang Xiyue did not hear it. She and Lin Susu were chatting very happily.
Of course, I also took out the gifts.
She had also seen the big red bow on her younger sister's head today on Jiang Xiyue's head, so when she bought one for herself, she also bought one for Lin Susu.
This thing is only two dollars in some magical software...
Linzhou also began to reply to the message in the community group. That message was a bit outrageous.
[Director of the Department of Psychiatry at Gotham City People's Hospital: Brothers, the goddess I've been pursuing suddenly posted a photo of her in a hotel. What should I do? ]
Most of the replies in the community below are jokes, and the most frequently appearing ones are the big and small jokers in playing cards.
But as Linzhou looked at this message, his expression gradually became solemn.
[a. Zhou (King Jiji): Um... your goddess' nickname is Xiran... just now she posted a message on her Moments saying "cut a knife", so I helped her cut one... by the way, I cut the hotel room fee. ]
By sending this message, Linzhou originally wanted to persuade this elder brother to return to the right path, but what he never expected was that the elder brother would reply to the message so quickly.
[Director of the Psychiatric Department of Gotham City People's Hospital: Huh? I'll go get a knife too. By the way, it's also possible to just go to the hotel and rest.]
After reading this message, Linzhou didn’t know what to say. He could only put the phone aside and gently rub his temples, hoping that this old man would not be too sad because of this.
Half of the coloring and axis alignment in the club are done by this brother. If he really fails, the work pressure will be a lot greater.
As for that brother’s goddess, Linzhou was lucky enough to add her as a friend, because when he was the class monitor, the counselor asked this so-called goddess to guide him through the familiar school procedures.
In fact, he never brought her here, and the two of them had never even met.
Linzhou's evaluation of this person is consistent with his evaluation of the heroine in "Shave, and Pick Up a High School Girl".
The Ultimate Bus...
Just when he was about to continue his advice, Linzhou's cell phone rang. He looked at the caller ID and answered the call directly.
"What's the matter, Sister Momo, do you miss me?"
"Aren't you back? Sister, I have something to complain to you about, and I want to visit your wife. I'll come to you now." The girl on the other end was very straightforward and hung up the phone right after she finished speaking.
After hanging up the phone, Lin's mother, who was sitting in the passenger seat, turned around.
"It's Momo, right? She just came to me. You kids can just go down and play. The bill will be put on your dad's membership card."
"Okay..." Linzhou nodded and agreed. Just as he was about to look out the window, his eyes met Jiang Xiyue's.
Linzhou quickly read doubt and worry in that look.
Before she could explain, Jiang Xiyue spoke, in a very low voice so that only she and Linzhou could hear, "Who is this Sister Momo? Where did she come from? Could she be your real childhood sweetheart, Zhou Zhou?"
After listening to Jiang Xiyue's reasonable question, Linzhou looked at the girl and smiled wickedly.
"you guess?"
The lethality of these two words is extremely high. After hearing them, Jiang Xiyue's expression immediately changed to anger, but it was difficult to say it out loud. She could only secretly put her hand on Linzhou's waist and rotate it slightly.
Linzhou, feeling the pain, was ready to endure it a little longer. After all, he would see Jiang Xiyue in this jealous state less and less often.
But before he could finish his words, the car stopped in the parking lot at the door.
The whole family walked in at once. Lin Zhou saw Sister Momo sitting on the sofa and shouted, "Brother, let's go !"
Mo Mo looked up, and after seeing Linzhou, she stood up and walked quickly towards him. Because she was wearing high heels, she almost sprained her ankle.
But when she got to Linzhou, the well-dressed sister raised her leg and kicked him accurately on the buttocks. "Fuck you, I told you not to call me big brother. I really hope your sister can't get married."
As if sensing Jiang Xiyue's surprised expression, Linzhou stretched out his hand to introduce.
"Yueyue, this is my cousin, Lin Momo, the daughter of my second uncle."
Now it was Jiang Xiyue's turn to be embarrassed. After glaring at Linzhou fiercely, she quickly reached out her hand, "Hello, sister. My name is Jiang Xiyue. You can just call me Yueyue."
"Okay, sister will take you to have fun today. That brat from Linzhou doesn't know where to have fun." Lin Momo directly reached out and held Jiang Xiyue's hand, then hooked her arm around Lin Susu's neck, "Sister is getting more and more beautiful. Let's go, let's go have some tea first..."
Watching the three girls leave, Linzhou had no choice but to follow them.
He has suddenly become a loner...Why does he suddenly feel so lonely?
Feeling a little puzzled, Lin Zhou followed the two girls upstairs and found a place to sit down. Lin Momo asked for a pot of black tea and sat there with a big smile.
After scanning the table, Lin Momo chose Lin Susu as her target. "Susu, why are you acting like a woman? Learn more from your sister."
"Okay, I'll learn it." Lin Susu nodded with a frown on her face.
Hearing this, Lin Zhou was unhappy and said, "Sister Momo, please don't lead my Su Su astray. She is such a gentle girl."
"Yes... When I was in elementary school, I pressed a little boy on the desk and rubbed him." Lin Momo waved her hands, her face full of an expression that said I wouldn't listen. She poured herself a cup of tea and drank most of it in one gulp.
Now, Lin Susu could only lower her head and drink tea. Only her family knew about this dark history.
Jiang Xiyue just sat there with a smile on her face, drinking tea quietly and looking around at the surroundings. Although it was very late, it was still quite lively.
It may be because the Chinese New Year is approaching. Through the window, you can see red lanterns hanging everywhere outside.
Linzhou looked at his cousin, unable to hide the smile on his face.
"What's wrong, Sister Momo? Did the blind date fail again?"
"Well, after three years of dating, this is the first time I feel that marriage is not a must." Lin Momo continued to drink tea, wiping her mouth and always feeling that it was not tasty enough.
Hearing this, Linzhou was indeed a little surprised. In his opinion, this sister would not say such a thing.
"What do you mean, the other party is mentally ill?"
"His brain is pretty good, but I'm not satisfied with his height, even though he's already 1.8 meters tall." Lin Momo's face was full of sadness, as if she was talking about something very important.
In fact, she didn't want to go on a blind date at all, she just wanted to complete her housework.
Every time she went on a blind date, it was like going to jail. When she met a boy introduced by others, she would just sit there and nod, and by the way, light up Genliqun and watch quietly.
"What the hell? Are you not satisfied with 1.80 meters?" Linzhou's mouth twitched slightly, not knowing what his sister was talking about.
After hearing these words, Lin Momo's expression became visibly ferocious.
"Fuck, that guy can jump 1.8 meters, and that guy can jump 30 centimeters, you tell me..."
"Six." Linzhou stopped talking now. He picked up the cup and drank tea. What else could he say?
Originally, a blind date is about two people meeting each other under the pressure of their parents, having a meal together, and then complaining about each other when they get home.
Jiang Xiyue, who was sitting next to him, listened with great interest, drinking tea and eating snacks.
How about... next time when I meet Stupid Zhou Zhou, I can simulate a blind date scenario.
But Lin Momo gradually shifted her gaze to Jiang Xiyue, then looked at Lin Zhou before speaking, "Does your sister-in-law know how to drink? Let's have some midnight snack and some beer?"
"I can drink, but only a little." Jiang Xiyue spoke cautiously.
After all, Linzhou had repeatedly forbidden her to drink alcohol before and after her menstrual period. If she drank too much, she would be scolded.
The most important thing is that she can't deny it.
After hearing Jiang Xiyue say that she could drink, Lin Momo became happy, "Come on, come on, let's go, you're still our Northeastern daughter-in-law, how can she not drink..."
★·❤·□·❤·☆
Two hours later, Lin Zhou and Lin Susu looked at the two girls lying on the table, with helpless expressions on their faces.
"Each of you take one. You take the elder sister, and I'll take Yueyue."
"good."
After putting Jiang Xiyue on the bed, Linzhou made another cup of tea and sat on the chair next to her.
I told you to drink only a little bit, two girls, one bottle of liquor, are you playing like that? I couldn't stop them, and in the end, they were just about to become sworn sisters.
Thinking about the horrifying scene just now, Linzhou picked up the teacup and called Sakurai Kei who was building the city.
"Moses Moses."
"Sister Xiaohui, help me, tell me what else can help me sober up besides sugar water." Linzhou was overwhelmed, but he still called Sakurai Hui.
You can't go to the two of us to deal with this matter, as you might get scolded.
Jiang Xiyue's current state was that she was drunk. She was lying on the bed just now, but now she sat up and stared at him blankly.
Sakurai Megumi's voice soon came from the other end of the phone.
"You can drink some milk, but not pure milk. Just the kind of mixed milk drinks. Yueyue also likes to drink them."
"Well, thank you Sister Xiaohui. I'll treat you to a big meal when I get back." Linzhou hung up the phone casually, looked at Jiang Xiyue who was sitting there in a daze, sighed helplessly and walked forward.
"Come on, go to bed."
But Jiang Xiyue pouted and opened her arms towards Linzhou.
"Well, but you secretly called Xiaohui, and I got angry, so I want to punish you."
