Xue Ling wiped the cream on her face and asked, "Where is Xiao Ranran?"
Cheng Tianyuan replied: "My mother was playing with him next door, playing with the wooden horse just now. We were going out, and I was afraid that he would yell to follow, so I simply asked my mother not to carry him over."
Xue Ling couldn't help but glance at the window and clicked her tongue twice.
"This weather - it's absolutely amazing!"
Cheng Tianyuan explained: "It is said to be a big cold wave. It will last for four or five days before it gets warmer. Didn't the weather report last night also mention it? This year's Chinese New Year should be warmer. After this big cold wave passes, it should
There won’t be any cold weather.”
"It was very cold last year." Xue Ling muttered, "It seems it was also cold during the New Year the year before last."
Cheng Tianyuan nodded and said: "It's been cold for two Chinese New Years, it's time to warm up again."
"Pfft!" Xue Ling couldn't help laughing and laughed: "Can we still take turns? Is it possible?"
Cheng Tianyuan smiled slightly and led her to the kitchen.
"There is a stove here to keep it warm. Let's eat here."
At this time, there was a knock on the door outside!
Xue Ling said: "You go and see who it is, I can do it myself."
Cheng Tianyuan opened the door - it was Ah Hu!
"When did you come back?"
"Last night! I had dinner at the development zone. I was going to go around to chat with you, but it was really cold last night!" Ahu explained with a smile while holding a plate: "So I planned to come over in the morning to have dinner.
.”
Xue Ling poked his head out and was surprised: "Ahu! Are you back?"
"Sister-in-law, why have you lost so much weight?" Ahu stared at her in surprise and asked, "You're not losing weight, right? You're too thin!"
"Why lose weight?" Cheng Tianyuan closed the door and explained with a sigh: "She has been losing her appetite for food for more than half a month."
Ahu frowned and said, "You were already thin, but now you look too thin. Hurry up and eat more!"
Xue Ling picked up a meat bun and asked with a smile: "I'm eating it! Do you want to eat it?"
"Yes!" Ahu pushed the cold plate to Cheng Tianyuan and said with a smile: "Last night, my mother asked sister-in-law Cuiliu to bring this to me so that I could heat it up for breakfast in the morning. But she completely forgot that the stove at home was
How long has it been cold? I'm too lazy to burn briquettes, so I'll just bring the rice cakes and come to your place for breakfast."
Cheng Tianyuan brought the steamer up and said, "I made a lot of barbecued pork buns last night. You and Ling Ling will eat them together. I'll put this rice cake down to steam, and you can eat it soon."
Ahu was not polite and sat opposite Xue Ling, drinking porridge and eating steamed buns, and reported the situation of the two stores in the wholesale market to Xue Ling one by one.
"At that time, the rent for one house was until the end of the year. The one I rented later had to expire in February next year. I had already renewed the lease before I came here to avoid having to raise the rent after the new year."
"Okay!" Xue Ling said, "You figure it out! I've been very busy here recently, and I didn't have time until the day before yesterday."
Ahu couldn't help but look around and asked, "Where's Xiao Ranran? Ask him to come out and call him 'uncle'!"
Cheng Tianyuan explained: "I'm playing next door. We're going out soon, and we don't want him to follow us. It's too cold outside."
"It's very cold!" Ahu patted the military-colored cotton-padded jacket on his body, "I'll put an extra big sweater inside it this morning, otherwise I won't dare to go out."
Xue Ling only ate half of the bun and couldn't eat any more.
"I'll have another small bowl of white porridge!"
Cheng Tianyuan had no choice but to bring out some tribute vegetables.
"We have to finish the porridge, there can't be any more."
Ahu made several buns in a row and muttered: "It smells so good! Ayuan's craftsmanship is getting better and better! If one day we don't open a shop but instead open a bun shop, the business will definitely be booming!"
Xue Ling hurriedly agreed: "Put up a big signboard of 'Cheng's Pork Buns', put the stove and pots on it, and you can do business immediately!"
Ahu said quickly: "Just put it at the entrance of our community. If you add some hot soy milk, it will definitely not be enough to sell!"
Seeing them singing along, Cheng Tianyuan couldn't help but ask quietly: "You really hope that both stores can't make money? What's so hard about eating steamed buns? You can do it anytime!"
Xue Ling and Ahu looked at each other and laughed.
After a while, Cheng Tianyuan brought out the rice cakes.
"It's steamed, let's eat!"
Ahu glanced at it and said, "I'm already a little full, just one piece."
Xue Ling showed little interest, shook his head and said, "I can't eat any more."
Cheng Tianyuan picked up a piece with chopsticks and ate it slowly.
“It’s quite delicious, just like Chen Lan’s cooking style.”
Ahu smiled and said: "That girl was staring at the radio last night, and I laughed at her a lot. She also begged me to take her to the provincial capital to buy a better radio. I heard that one cost dozens of yuan, but she actually
She said yes immediately, unlike her usual stingy style! Haha!"
Xue Ling's eyes turned slightly, remembering the scene when Chen Lan secretly delivered rice cakes to Tong Zi.
That girl said she was a fan of Tong Zi. Could it be that she is still following his show?
The photo studio that caused trouble last time has closed down. Liu Xing said that the business of the two "good friends photo studios" is very good and stable.
Tong Zi was still in charge of the original photo studio, while Liu Xing rented a store at the junction of the old and new urban areas and opened a branch with a very similar style.
Liu Xing has applied for a pay suspension to protect his job. Now he works in the new photo studio every day and hired a young girl to help him look after the store.
His father, Liu Dafu, still stayed at the old photo studio. Because it was not far from home, the old man had poor eyesight and did not dare to ride a bicycle to the new store, so he simply stayed at the old one.
Anyway, it's my son's shop, and I get the same salary no matter which one I work for.
Tong Zi is still working hard like that, taking photos during the day and recording programs at night, running back and forth.
Wang Qing still went to work at the newspaper office in the morning and evening, Liu Xing had lunch at the photo studio, and she ate with everyone at the newspaper office. The couple cooked breakfast and dinner at home.
Since Liu Xing has made more money, he has become more confident. When I met him downstairs last week, not only did he look better and more confident, he also gained a little weight.
On the contrary, Wang Qing, who is busy with work and home, seems to have lost a lot of weight...
"Daughter-in-law, the rest of the porridge is almost finished and will be cold." Cheng Tianyuan cleared the table and reminded: "What are you thinking about? You have forgotten that you are still eating!"
"Oh..." Xue Ling slowly ate the remaining porridge.
Ahu on the side laughed and said: "Sister-in-law must be thinking about how to make a lot of money next year!"
Xue Ling chuckled.
Cheng Tianyuan shook his head helplessly.
After breakfast, it was almost nine o'clock.
Xue Ling was lazy and didn't want to move, and said: "Don't tell me that when Ahu comes back, let's chat for a while before we go! You have to take medicine when you go to the hospital. As soon as I think about it... let's go later!"
"No!" Cheng Tianyuan shook his head firmly: "Your appetite suddenly became so bad, something must have happened to your body. It would be better to go to the hospital for a check-up."
"Yes, yes!" Ahu quickly agreed: "Your health is the most important thing. If you are sick, take the medicine. Anyway, I have nothing to do. I will stay with you to accompany Xiao Ranran and the godmother! I want to take the godmother's best meal at noon.
Specialty braised beef!”
"Okay, then come over." Cheng Tianyuan took the coat, helped Xue Ling get a scarf, a woolen hat, and gloves.
Ahu opened the door and went next door.
As soon as the door opened, the cold wind from outside took the opportunity to rush in, making Xue Ling shiver.
"I... seem to be very weak. Otherwise, I can just get some supplements and take them instead of going to the hospital!"
Cheng Tianyuan glanced at her belly thoughtfully and deliberately whispered: "Don't you think... you look like this when you were just pregnant with Xiao Ranran? It's been a long time since you had your period. You don't know how?
