Chapter 51: A Short Farewell
As soon as he walked out of the terminal, Linzhou saw the girl standing in the waiting area.
Jiang Xiyue, wearing a baseball cap, stood there quietly, looking at his phone from time to time.
Then Lin Zhou was confused. Didn't they agree not to pick up the phone? Why did she come over anyway? It was so dangerous for a girl to go out alone at night.
Although he wanted to complain, Linzhou still pulled his suitcase and walked up quickly.
He stopped behind Jiang Xiyue and spoke in a pinched voice.
"Little sister, are you alone? Can you help me show the way? This is my first time here."
"I'm sorry, uncle . I'm waiting for my boyfriend. Please go find the airport staff." The girl turned around while speaking, and then saw Linzhou with a smile on his face.
After a few seconds of stunned silence, Jiang Xiyue's little fist hit over.
“Are you stupid? I’m not a little sister, but Zhou Zhou has had a hard time on the road.”
"It's not hard, but... do you think it's appropriate to call me uncle?" Linzhou still had a smile on his face, pulling a heavy suitcase in his hand.
It is always like this for those who leave home. Their mother will fill their suitcases with a lot of food, which is the taste of home.
Although it sounds great, it is really heavy and you have to do a lot of things yourself.
If Linzhou hadn't said that blood sausage couldn't be brought to Feiji, Lin's mother would have stuffed some in.
In fact, it is possible to take it in checked luggage, but Linzhou doesn’t know how to do it, so he finds a random reason to refuse his mother’s love.
While Linzhou was thinking about this, Jiang Xiyue had already walked in front and spoke in a tone, "Okay, I know that uncles like you like girls like me the most, so let's go for a midnight snack. I know a place that sells delicious crayfish."
"How do I look like an uncle? It's okay to have a midnight snack, but I've been traveling for a long time and I'm already hungry."
Following Jiang Xiyue, Linzhou touched the things in his pocket, and his eyes showed obvious worry.
He prepared gifts for this trip back to his hometown.
To be honest, it's not very valuable. It's a little Doraemon that I carved myself when I was learning carpentry with my father. It's been painted and varnished.
Because I took good care of it, it now looks like it was just made, and it also has the scent of medicinal herbs, which is the smell that I smoked with medicinal herbs when I was in junior high school.
He asked his sister for her opinion, and she said it was a perfect match and nothing could be more suitable than this.
But this small wood carving, although made of peach wood, is indeed not worth much.
…
When they arrived at the restaurant, Lin Zhou took out the little Doraemon from his pocket and put it on the table. "I was in a hurry to go back, so I didn't have time to prepare some specialties for you. This thing I made when I was a child, so I'll give it to you as a small ornament."
"You made it yourself when you were a child? Zhou Zhou, are you that good?" The girl picked up the wood carving on the table, looked at it carefully, and then smiled.
He is very curious now. What is important about a gift is not the gift itself, but the story behind it.
After all, in the girl’s perception, everyone’s life is a very wonderful story. Although there may be ups and downs, the results are usually good.
After hearing the compliment from Jiang Xiyue, Linzhou began to tell stories from his childhood.
"It's a family secret, I just hope you don't despise it. Making this Doraemon was my first time doing woodworking. I didn't have enough strength at the time, so I couldn't hold the carving knife steadily, and I cut my hand. You see, there's still a scar."
Jiang Xiyue supported her chin with both hands, rested her elbows on the table, and stared into Linzhou's eyes.
"This thing is very memorable. Wouldn't it be a shame for you to give it to me?"
"I don't feel bad about it. After all, I don't have anything else good. Even a young lady like you wouldn't be interested in something that can be bought directly." Linzhou scalded the cup with boiling water, poured water for Jiang Xiyue, and answered casually.
It was visibly that Jiang Xiyue's mouth was pouting.
She is unhappy.
What do you mean by bought it directly? The eldest lady doesn't like it. She has been so approachable, can she still be considered a eldest lady?
But... he remembered to bring me a gift after two days back home, so I think he was thoughtful. I will forgive him this time.
"Zhou Zhou, if you call me Miss again, I will get angry."
"Give birth to a litter." Hearing this, Linzhou knew that the other party was very satisfied with the gift, so he started joking.
…
Then, Jiang Xiyue took off her shoes and kicked him.
"Are you mentally retarded? How can anyone give birth to a litter of babies? Besides, I'm angry, not giving birth to a baby!"
" That's almost it. From now on I won't call you Miss anymore. How about calling you Princess?" Linzhou was happy now and started to talk nonsense as soon as he opened his mouth.
Then he got kicked a lot.
In order to kick it, Jiang Xiyue grabbed the edge of the table with both hands and cursed.
"You are the one who brought the Qing Dynasty back to the old ways. Your whole family is like that. If you keep saying that, I'm going home. I won't care about you anymore!"
Lin Zhou, who was kicked, did not react at all. After all, Jiang Xiyue's kicks didn't hurt, and she took off her shoes when kicking, so her kicking power was even weaker.
But it’s a good thing that the gift can be given away, at least Jiang Xiyue doesn’t hate it.
After thinking about this question, a smile appeared on Linzhou's face.
After seeing the smile, Jiang Xiyue's eyes showed three parts of doubt and seven parts of confusion.
"Zhou Zhou, why can you laugh even when you're kicked? Are you... that shaking thing they say on the internet?"
"What weird stuff are you watching on the Internet all day? Why don't you turn on the youth mode of your software?" Linzhou took a spoon and hit the girl on the head.
Not too light, not too heavy, just enough to make a sound.
Jiang Xiyue quickly covered her head, looked at Linzhou with pitiful eyes, and began to defend herself.
"Zhou Zhou, what position are you standing on when you say this? You obviously know what I'm talking about. And... and also, when the youth mode is turned on, there are only young ladies dancing, which is not suitable for teenagers at all."
"Really? Then I'll open it and take a look. I'm not sleepy anymore when you say that."
While talking, Linzhou took out his cell phone and prepared to open it to find out what was going on.
It doesn’t matter whether the young lady dances or not, the key is to do it for the sake of green and health.
But before he could open the video app, Jiang Xiyue came over and snatched the phone, looking at Linzhou with wide eyes.
There is a cute girl right in front of you, but you insist on watching some video.
Besides, the girl in front of me is much more beautiful than those girls in the video.
To be precise, it is at the crushing level.
Being stared at by Jiang Xiyue, how could Linzhou not know what the other party meant.
"Okay, okay, I won't watch it anymore. I'll go home and sleep after having a midnight snack. I have classes tomorrow."
…
As soon as she finished speaking, the girl took out two cards from her pocket and placed them on the table. "I'm going to play games later, then go to the hotel to sleep. I'll go straight to class tomorrow. It's only a five-minute walk to school."
Looking at the room card on the table, Linzhou's eyes were full of confusion.
"No? Don't you want me to live? I've been traveling all afternoon... I'll be gone if I stay up late playing games."
Jiang Xiyue slammed the table and stood up with a ferocious .
"Can you please do this? Just play for an hour, please."
