Time flies by, and it's New Year's Eve in the blink of an eye. Today, Teacher Qi, who has always been very strict with Qi Pengfei, let him go and didn't leave him any homework, so that he could have a relaxing day.
Su He was playing with the fireworks she bought. She had never played with them, so she wanted to study how to play them.
"Stop looking, come and eat delicious food with me in the kitchen, that night is fun." Qi Pengfei came over and pulled Su He away. Su He's look of having never seen the world made Qi Pengfei laugh at him.
But Su He didn't care, because it was just a matter of fact and she had never played with it before.
Naturally, delicious food is indispensable in the New Year. Hu Si got up early in the morning and got busy. Su He got up early and saw it early. She was not surprised about it. She had already eaten enough in the morning.
"Just go by yourself and let me take a look." Su He still wanted to study it further.
“I’ll watch it tonight”
Su He was helplessly dragged to the kitchen, reluctant to part with her fireworks, wondering why it was not night yet, she couldn't wait any longer.
"Mom, Happy New Year," Qi Pengfei hugged Hu Si from behind and said.
"Happy New Year, Aunt Hu," Su He said following closely behind.
"Okay, I'll get you a red envelope later," Hu Si said happily.
"Haha, I want a big one," Qi Pengfei hurried up and said.
"You are a boy and you have nothing to buy. Why do you want a big red envelope? Give the big red envelope to Su He." Hu Si glared at Qi Pengfei and said angrily.
"I don't need Aunt Hu," Su He said sheepishly. She had lived for free for so long and could no longer take Aunt Hu's red envelope.
"New Year's money, everyone has it." Hu Si looked at Su He and said gently, then turned to look at Qi Pengfei and lost his temper again, "If you want to eat, go to the table to eat. What does it look like to eat like this?"
"Mom, today is the Chinese New Year, so you can't say that." Qi Pengfei stuck out his tongue.
"Okay" Hu Si was speechless, "Then I'll forgive you"
Su He smiled and watched Qi Pengfei and Aunt Hu bickering. How come she didn't know Qi Pengfei was so cute in her previous life? In her memory, he always had a serious face, just like Teacher Qi.
Amidst such laughter and laughter, the time finally came at night. It was time to have New Year’s Eve dinner. The New Year’s Eve dinner in the same city is always held in the evening. As for other places, I don’t know.
Although there are only four people, there is still a table full of dishes, which are basically made by Aunt Hu. Teacher Qi does not know how to cook and is a kind of kitchen killer. He can only cut and chop vegetables.
Su He originally wanted to help, but was kicked out by Teacher Qi, so even if he was the one to help, Su He didn't get involved.
"Come, let's have a drink together first, and wish us all the best in the new year in advance." Teacher Qi took the lead in delivering a speech, and Su He also applauded in a dignified manner.
"We all sit down to eat. Our family is not very particular about it. There is no need to bow and greet." Su He was about to stand up when Teacher Qi pulled him down.
"Yes, you don't need to be so particular about eating vegetables. You don't need to have so many rules in your own family." Hu Si said. She never liked the etiquette of toasting. It was pointless to go back and forth. "The beer duck was cooked particularly well today."
, simmered over low heat, Su He, please eat more."
"Hmm," Su He buried his head in his meal while his mind was still on the fireworks. He could play with them after finishing the meal.
"Xiao Fei, don't just eat meat, but also eat more vegetables. The nutrition should be balanced." Qi Bing gave Qi Pengfei a big chopstick of vegetables, which was what Qi Pengfei hated to eat, but Qi Pengfei didn't dare to say anything because it was
His father gave it to him.
Su He was gloating at the side. Qi Pengfei was a standard carnivore. For him, eating vegetables was like eating grass.
"Other parents will bring their children to pay New Year greetings later. Xiaofei, please pay attention to calling people later. Although you don't pay attention to the etiquette in front of family members, you must be polite in front of outsiders," Teacher Qi explained.
"Okay." Qi Pengfei nodded. He had to say this every year. Which time did he fail to be polite? He was so verbose, but he didn't dare to say this to his father directly, otherwise his father would be unable to stop talking.
Although Su He was not called out, Su He nodded. She was now at Teacher Qi's house and could not bring any bad influence to Teacher Qi's house.
"Su He, just follow Xiao Fei and call her later." Qi Bing looked at Su He. He felt reassured about Su He. She was a very polite and well-educated child.
"Okay" Su He nodded.
Not long after Teacher Qi finished explaining, the Qi family started to get lively. No, not just the Qi family, the whole building started to get lively. Adults and children shouted New Year greetings one after another, and Su He sounded very cordial.
"Teacher Qi, happy New Year, happy New Year, Xiaofei is now so old and will go to college soon," Chen Xue said with a happy face.
Su He was surprised by the person who spoke, because the other person was the person whom Su He had not recognized after chatting with Su He for a long time last time.
"Hey, Su He, why are you at Teacher Qi's house?" When she saw Su He, Chen Xue was also surprised, and then suddenly realized, "You are also here to pay New Year's greetings, you are so thoughtful."
"Teacher Chen, do you know Su He?" Qi Bing asked curiously. Logically speaking, Teacher Chen entered the school later, and Su He had already graduated at that time.
"Su He is my aunt's granddaughter. My eldest uncle is also a teacher and a university professor, which is great, but we don't have much contact now," Chen Xue explained.
"Su He, my cousin is back in the same city now. The two families still live so close. Come to my cousin's house more often when you have nothing to do. My cousin's house is upstairs." Chen Xue rubbed Su He's head.
At this time, Su He suddenly realized that she was her aunt's daughter, but how could she remember that her aunt only had one son, and even if she had a daughter, she probably didn't know her, so why could she recognize her at a glance.
She remembered that there had been no contact between the two families for a long time. It was understandable that her cousin did not know her current relationship with her family. She remembered that the last time they met her aunt's family was when her grandmother passed away.
"Okay, cousin," Su He responded. Although she didn't know many things, she was an elder anyway, and she should respond to her elders' enthusiasm.
"Where is Su He studying? You should be going to college soon. I remember your grandpa said the year before last that you were in high school. How are your grades?"
This is a general rule. During the New Year, grades must be mentioned, but her grades have always been good. Su He smiled and replied, "She is a freshman at Huaqing University."
"Huaqing, that is the most powerful school in our country. It is not easy to get into. The results are really good," Chen Xue praised.
"It's okay" Su He smiled modestly.
"Xiaojie, come here, this is your aunt's cousin, call her cousin," Chen Xue introduced.
Su He lowered his head and realized that his cousin was bringing a child with him. He looked about three or four years old and had a tough head. Su He couldn't help pinching his cheeks and said, "It's so cute."
"You look cute now, but you are too naughty at home, so I will leave first. By the way, Su He, I have never seen you in my uncle's house so many times. When my uncle mentioned you, he was always silent.
I miss you. When you have time to come back, please spend more time with your grandpa. It's not easy for him to be alone now. I think my uncle's back is starting to become rickety." Chen Xue did not forget to tell Su He before leaving.
Su He watched Chen Xue leave, but she was full of doubts. When did their two families start to communicate with each other again? Isn't grandpa a member of a big family now? There is no shortage of her. Why would this cousin say that her grandpa is alone?
easy.
The last time she went back, she did see that her grandpa's back was bent, but she was also silent. Su He was talking to him, but grandpa kept feeding the cheap grandson and said few words to himself.
I'm not excited anymore. Why did my cousin tell me that she won't accompany my grandpa anymore? What's going on in the middle?
"Su He, if there is anything we can communicate with each other, there is no overnight feud between parents and children." Qi Bing said this hesitantly as he watched Su He hesitate to speak.
It seems like this is a misunderstanding, but if it is a misunderstanding, wouldn't it be better? Just let it go. No matter how deep the misunderstanding is, it will weaken the blood relationship.
Su He raised her head blankly. She felt that she had to sort out the relationship carefully and find out who had misunderstood it. In fact, she disagreed with the statement that there was no overnight feud.
Parents are also flesh-and-blood people, and they will do things right and wrong. If you don't correct your mistakes, don't blame the children for not forgiving them. The same goes for children. Don't expect parents to obey unconditionally if they break their hearts. Qiu He
This is how resentments are formed.
But she wanted to know what was going on. She wanted to know all the facts. Thinking of this, Su He couldn't sit still. She wanted to go find her newly minted cousin and ask for details.
"Teacher Qi, I'll go upstairs to have a chat first." Su He stood up and said hello to Teacher Qi. After receiving Teacher Qi's response, he turned around and ran upstairs.
"Hello, uncle, I'd like to find my aunt." Su He still didn't know the name of the cousin who came to meet him, and was very disappointed.
"Auntie went out to pay New Year greetings and hasn't come back yet. Why don't you sit down and wait for a while?" the visitor said very gently.
Su He nodded and followed this uncle in. To be precise, this should be her cousin, but she didn't know what to say at this time.
Sitting on the sofa in the living room in silence, the two people looked at each other. The atmosphere was very awkward. Liu Yang spoke first, "Do you have anything to do with auntie?"
Su He was very hesitant. She didn't know what to say. Although the uncle opposite looked very gentle, she hadn't figured out how to say this yet.
"Forget it's inconvenient, I'll send a message to your aunt to talk about it," Liu Yang said understandingly.
"No, I'm not in a hurry." Su He quickly stopped her. She hadn't thought about what to say yet.
"Okay, then you sit down first and drink some water." Liu Yang brought a glass of water to Su He.
"Okay, thank you." Su He took the water glass and thanked her.
