Chapter 143: Failed
The card game didn’t last long, and it was just past nine o’clock when it had to be announced that it was over.
Guo Kai won the best of the game. Counting the old money and borrowed money, he lost more than ten yuan in total. He emo'd on the spot.
He Zishi lost three yuan and Chu Heng lost two yuan. Needless to say, the winner was Miss Zhang herself.
Zhang Yi, who was killing everyone at the card table, finally regained his senses. He looked at the handful of bills in his hand with some embarrassment, took out a few and gave them to Guo Kai: "There are too many, Brother Guo, this is for you Take it back.”
"Don't be like this. It's just this once in a year. You, Brother Guo, and I can afford to lose." Guo Kai pushed him back with tears in his eyes.
Sometimes face is more important than money...
Seeing that Zhang Yi wanted to send it back, Chu Heng smiled and waved his hand: "Hurry up and take it away, we didn't give it back when we were playing cards. When you are like this, are you going to play again? Besides, your Hu Zhengwen has lost more than this in the past two years, and you haven't even gotten back your money yet? "
"Then I'll keep it." Zhang Yi coyly pocketed the money and said with a smile, "I'll treat you to dinner in a few days."
"We'll have dinner another day. Besides, I have to go home and eat dumplings." He Zishi stood up and said to the others: "Would you like to go together?"
"One piece." Guo Kai also stood up.
Seeing this, Zhang Yi looked at his man and asked, "Shall we go sit at my mother's place for a while?"
Hu Zhengwen naturally would not object and nodded: "Okay."
A few people quickly got dressed and went out with mahjong. Chu Heng also stood up and saw them off politely.
After returning to the house, he saw that it was only about nine o'clock and it was still a bit early to eat dumplings. He made himself a pot of tea and turned on the radio. Then he took out the antique guide and ran to the recliner to enjoy it. looked up.
Time flies and it’s ten o’clock before you know it.
“Hmm!”
Chu Heng, who had been sitting stiffly for a while, finally put down his book, stood up and stretched his neck, then stretched his waist, and then prepared to boil water and cook dumplings. When you're done, go to sleep.
Generally, the authentic way to eat dumplings during the Spring Festival is to eat dumplings at midnight on New Year's Eve, when we say goodbye to the old and welcome the new, which represents the "New Year's Eve". The shape of the dumplings is similar to a gold ingot. When cooking the dumplings, you need to add cold water to the pot three times and let the dumplings roll three times, which means that there will be lots of wealth in the coming year.
But Chu Heng doesn’t believe this. He eats dumplings just to comply with the solar terms. Since everyone eats them, he will eat them too, so as to appear more gregarious.
He had just fetched the pot and before the dumplings were taken out from the warehouse, he heard a familiar sound coming from the door of the courtyard.
“Bang! Bang!”
This is the sound of the bicycle hitting the threshold, and it is unique to his little girl!
Chu Heng raised his head and looked out the window in surprise. Under the dim light, he could vaguely see a figure with a bulging front and back pushing a car towards his house.
A moment later, Ni Yinghong’s pretty face appeared outside the window with a smile on her face. The two looked at each other through the window, with intoxicating affection in their eyes.
"Hey!"
Chu Heng was surprised and happy. His smile was so toothy that he hurriedly went out to greet him.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw little girl Ni standing outside the door with her pretty face red from the cold, holding an aluminum lunch box in her hand.
"Why are you here so late? You must be freezing!" Chu Heng opened his arms and was about to hug her.
"Oops." Ni Yinghong pushed him away and whispered: "My brother came with me, I don't dare to do it myself." At this moment, Ni Zhen suddenly came out from behind the girl , smiled and cupped his hands: "Happy New Year, brother-in-law."
At this moment, Chu Heng suddenly disliked this brother-in-law and wanted to kick him home.
But I can only think about it. My brother-in-law sent people here at night. It was hard work but no credit. He quickly took out two pieces of one yuan from his pocket and gave them to Ni Zhen: "Happy New Year, this is a red envelope. ."
"Thank you, brother-in-law." Seeing that he gave this. So much, Ni Zhen's expression was as if he had won a lottery, and he reached out to take it happily. He had never had so much money in his life!
"Why did you give him so much!" Ni Yinghong was a little bit She couldn't bear to part with it, she would be in charge of the money in more than ten days!
"My brother-in-law is paying New Year's greetings to my brother-in-law for the first time. Don't you want to give me a little more?" Chu Heng smiled and turned sideways and said, "Hurry up and come in, it's very cold outside."
"Yes." Ni Yinghong stepped forward. When they walked into the house and passed each other, the fruit stand was grabbed hard.
“You!” The girl was startled and quickly looked back at her brother. She saw that he was lowering his head and stuffing money into his crotch. He didn’t pay attention to the little action just now. She breathed a sigh of relief and gave the man a gouging look. He twisted his hips and entered the house.
After Ni Zhen hid the money, he patted his crotch with satisfaction, feeling that this response should be safe.
Furthermore, in the face of this huge amount of cash, the hatred in his heart for his brother-in-law for stealing wool quickly faded away, and he happily followed his good brother-in-law into the house.
"Come, eat an apple. Don't be polite when you come to my brother-in-law's place. Just treat it as your own home." Chu Heng picked up an apple from the Eight Immortals table and threw it to Ni Zhen. Then he ignored him and sat down next to Ni Yinghong, looking at it with a smile. The pink-faced beauty pointed at the lunch box on the table and asked, "What did you get?"
"Dumplings." The girl smiled and took the lunch box, opened the lid and showed it to him: "It's too troublesome for you to make dumplings by yourself, so I brought you some, cabbage and meat. They have enough filling."< br>
There are two rows of dumplings neatly placed in the lunch box, with white skin and big belly, like ingots.
Chu Heng looked at the dumplings, and all kinds of tastes came to his heart.
Even in the middle of the night, she still wanted to bring him dumplings. The girl's tenderness made his heart melt.
I really want to eat some honey on the spot!
He glanced at his brother-in-law who was sitting next to the radio and was having fun, quietly grabbed Ni Yinghong's soft little hand, and scolded: "You silly girl, what are you doing in the dark? If this happens, What happened? I still Are you going to survive?"
"Isn't it okay?" The girl felt warm in her heart and leaned closer to him, exhaling the sweet scent: "I miss you, so come here. Look at you.”
Ouch!
Aren’t you flirting?
Chu Heng immediately scratched his heart and wanted to hug the girl tightly and kiss her until the end of time!
By the way, take a look at the fruit stall to see if there are any new fruits, and see if the seafood shop has been restocked. If possible, check the flower bed, that would be even better.
Unfortunately, there is a troublesome brother-in-law in the house, and he can't do anything.
Chu Heng squeezed the girl's little hand tighter, his eyes burning with fire, and asked hopefully: "How about... don't leave at night?"
Ni Yinghong's eyes There are also A small flame was burning, but she could only look at him to quench her thirst. She shyly whispered in his ear: "I'm not married yet, so it's not good to live here. Tomorrow I... I'll come with you, okay?" .”
"How about eating ice cream tomorrow?" Chu Heng gradually turned into a wolf.
"It's all up to you." The girl said with a blushing face.
"Then I'll eat honey too." The guy chuckled.
"You, you, you...!"
Ni Yinghong's legs softened, her heart pounding, she quickly stood up and shouted to her brother: "Ni Zhen, let's go home."
We can't stay here, otherwise we have to stay here.
