Chapter 1025: Extra meals
The family ate and chatted. Around seven o'clock, Chu Qi and Chu Xue, brother and sister, had eaten and drank enough. They went back to the house and took the things they had bought in advance and dismantled them into pieces. The little firecracker ran out of the house in a hurry and went to play with his friends.
After a while, the second aunt and Xiao Ni also finished eating, wiped their mouths and got off the table.
For a while, Chu Heng and Chu Jianshe, the uncle and nephew, were the only ones left on the table, drinking glass after glass of wine and chatting.
Perhaps I feel that my eldest nephew has grown up, and the topics my second uncle will talk about today are broader than before. He will discuss the situation and policies with him, and will also chat with him about some secret information about the upper class figures. , which benefited Chu Heng a lot.
In this way, until eight o'clock, after the uncle and nephew each drank a bottle of Maotai, a middle-aged man suddenly came to the house.
This man is Tao Feiguo. He is not tall, dark and lean, and has a wrinkled face when he smiles. He is a neighbor in the second uncle's courtyard. He was also a leader of the grain export department before he was transferred to Chongwen District. , now serves as district deputy senior official.
"Uncle Tao, I wish you a happy life."
Chu Heng stood up quickly to say hello, picked up the cigarette and handed it over with a respectful and humble attitude.
This has nothing to do with status. After all, he is just a deputy senior official. It is not that he has not dealt with it. His attitude is purely because the other party is an elder and he even grabbed his bird when he was a child. It was quite painful... …
"Hengzi is here too. Happy New Year. Happy New Year."
Tao Feiguo took the cigarette with a smile, glanced at little girl Ni who was wearing a snow lotus cashmere sweater and had a slightly bulging belly. His eyes lit up and he said: "This Is she your wife?"
As he said that, he hurriedly touched his pocket, took out the five yuan his wife gave him to play mahjong, and handed it to Xiao Ni.
“Come on, come on, it’s Chinese New Year, and your new daughter-in-law is here. I have this red envelope. She came in a hurry and was not prepared. Don’t be too little.”
“No, uncle, you are welcome. Take it back quickly." Xiao Ni quickly pushed his hand, and then Tao Feiguo handed it over again. The extreme pulling that was supposed to start in the first grade of junior high school was suddenly brought forward.
After a few mutual exchanges, the second aunt saw that the heat was almost done, so she stepped forward and said: "Okay, okay, keep it, Yinghong, Lao Tao is not an outsider.
"Then Thank you, Uncle Tao. "Xiao Ni happily accepted the five yuan and put it in his pants pocket. No matter how much it was, it was just for good luck.
"That's right. Tao Feiguo laughed and took a puff of his cigarette, and then asked with concern: "I think this body is not too small?" When will you give birth? You have to tell me when the time comes. I have to go get a wedding drink. I didn't go to the wedding party. "
"The doctor said it will be mid-July, and I will definitely invite you then. "Chu Heng smiled and invited him to sit down in front of the sofa. Because the tea had already gone cold, he could only pour a cup of boiled water first.
"That's not good, do you know whether it's a boy or a girl? "Tao Feiguo asked.
Chu Heng sat next to him and said casually: "I didn't ask, boys and girls have to give birth, why do you ask?" ." Tao Feiguo laughed.
"Uncle Tao is right." The second uncle also stood up and came over at this time, and said happily: "In this case, your second aunt happens to have a classmate in the obstetrics and gynecology department. When I go back to check, I can ask him casually. , we also have some skills, so we can always worry about it.”
Xiao Ni on the side suddenly felt a lot of pressure, pursed her red and soft mouth, and sat there thinking wildly.
Although these two old men didn't mention a boy, their meaning was obvious. They were both concerned about whether it was a boy.
Even the second aunt was looking at her belly intentionally or unintentionally.
All of this was seen by Chu Heng. He felt sorry for his wife, so he was not willing to let Xiao Ni bear this unnecessary pressure, so he smiled and said: "Hey, it's not that we don't I'd like to see it, but we have different opinions. I like girls, but she , I want a boy. You said that after reading this, no matter whether it is a boy or a girl, there must be someone who is unhappy. Then I thought about it, forget it, when will the baby be born? I’m heartbroken.”
Xiao Ni looked up with a smile on her delicate face.
This man is so nice!
Intimate and gentle to the stomach...
"Hey, you kid, are you stupid? Everyone is looking forward to having a baby, so what good is a girl? They are all losers." The second aunt rolled her eyes at him when she heard this.
"I don't agree with what you are saying. Aren't all girls and boys biological? And I think girls are nice and caring. Look at our little Chu Xue, she is so rare." Chu Heng curled his lips and said .
"What's wrong with me?" At this moment, Chu Xue ran into the room, looking up at them with her face red from the cold and blinking her dark eyes.
“Say hello.”
Chu Heng's eyes suddenly lit up and he waved to her quickly: "Come, come here quickly."
"What are you doing, brother?" Although she wanted to quickly play with the firecrackers in the house, Chu Xue She was still very obedient and got in front of this man who stood at the top of the food chain. She had always been very aware of current affairs.
"Come, look at your sister-in-law, she has a boy or a girl in her belly." Chu Heng pointed at his wife's belly with a smile. His sister is a brat, so she should know what these people like to hear.
In an instant, Chu Xue became the focus of the room. Everyone, including Xiao Ni, looked over, feeling vaguely expectant.
And Xiao Chuxue lived up to expectations. She rolled her eyes in a circle and shouted: "It's my younger brother!"
After saying that, she quickly grabbed a handful of candy bars from the table, put it in her pocket, and ran back to her room on her short legs.
After the people in the room got the answers they wanted, the atmosphere became harmonious again. After chatting lively for a while, the second uncle went to play mahjong with Tao Feiguo.
When it was almost eight o'clock, Chu Heng and his wife declined the second aunt's proposal to stay and eat dumplings together, and left the second uncle's place with some leftovers.
Older generations are very particular, and the first day of junior high school is not suitable for surgery, so I brought some leftovers back to eat at work at noon tomorrow.
After coming out of the courtyard, the young couple got into the car directly.
"Tu tu tu tu!"
With the roar of the engine, the Volga slowly drove away.
In the darkness, Xiao Ni looked at her husband's handsome face through the dim light. Her heart was full of tenderness, and she couldn't help but lean forward and kiss him on the cheek.
“You’re so kind.”
“Then look at it!” Chu Heng smiled and touched his waist, knowing that he would most likely have extra food tonight.
……
It’s past eight o’clock.
Little Lihua, outside the gate of the Chu family courtyard.
At this time, Hu Zhengwen and his wife were leading their younger brother Hu Zhengqiang, shivering, waiting for Chu Heng and his wife to come back outside the closed courtyard gate.
They arrived here at half past seven. Seeing that the door was locked, they did not leave and waited until now.
Although the temperature is rising now, it is still very cold at night.
Hu Zhengqiang looked at his sister-in-law who was stamping her feet in the cold, feeling full of guilt and couldn't help but said: "Brother, why don't we go back? I'll go find Chu Heng by myself tomorrow."
"Shut up!"
Hu Zhengwen looked over coldly. He could feel that this bastard still had resentment in his heart. Didn't he even scream when he saw Brother Hengzi?
"Zhengqiang." Zhang Yi shook his head helplessly and said softly: "Brother Hengzi, this is all for your own good. Stop blaming him. When you meet someone, admit your mistakes seriously. Please make amends to him, okay?”
"Yes, I understand, sister-in-law." Hu Zhengqiang lowered his head and responded. He was perverse and had a hot temper. Sometimes he would quarrel with his parents, but even in front of this gentle and soft-hearted sister-in-law, he never lost his temper at all. Not coming out.
