“The place where deep affection couldn’t reach had long been entered by someone driving a Maybach.”
After realizing he was just a backup option, Xia Tian hardened his heart and stopped believ...
Chapter 440: One in a Million
At around one o'clock, Xia Tian said goodbye to Ye Ningyu and grandparents and drove Xia Shi back home.
When Xia Tian returned home, there were still many people setting off firecrackers on the road.
Such artillery sounds will continue intermittently until at least two or three o'clock.
Cars don't drive very fast in summer, but the cell phone in my pocket kept ringing, all of them were New Year greetings from friends and family.
"That's great, that's great..."
Summer looked at the fireworks rising in the night sky ahead, feeling filled with emotion.
He clearly remembered that before his rebirth, when he was at home on New Year's Eve, he was always dealing with work matters and there was no one around him to accompany him.
However, after rebirth, I am surrounded by people who care about me.
It feels so good to be surrounded by family and friends.
When they returned home, Chen Meijuan and Xia Zhengguo were already asleep.
After washing up, Xia Tian lay on his bed before turning on his cell phone.
He usually doesn't bother to read the 99+ text messages and QQ messages, but today he made a special effort to check them all one by one.
Fang Yu: "Xiaotian, Happy New Year! The spring breeze is blowing and the horses are galloping, and the New Year is coming. May you be as vigorous as a dragon in the new year, and have a successful career; may you be as lucky as a dragon, and have a lot of money. Happy Spring Festival!"
Xia Tian: "??? You just changed the opening address and sent it to everyone, right?"
Looking at this string of sentences that I found on Baidu, I couldn't help but roll my eyes.
Then he began to look through other messages.
Luxi: "Xia Tian, I wish you and Ning Baobao lots of candies in the new year, so that I can eat more candies! Happy New Year, give me the red envelope! (whispering)"
Feng Niannian: "Black-hearted boss, the filming of 2013 has been completed! In the new year, I wish you a lot of money and bonuses, hehe, happy new year!"
Zhou Jiashu, Li Ping, Wu Chuan and Gao Xingjian also sent New Year greetings.
The interesting thing is that Gao Xingjian’s blessing is the most fucking unique.
"Happy New Year, Lao Xia! Hey, how did you know that I was lying in my 1,000-square-meter villa, drinking 1982 Lafite?"
Xia Tian is not the kind of person who can be ridiculed, and he immediately replied: "How do you know that Ye Ningyu is lying in my arms?"
Seeing that Gao Xingjian didn't reply for a long time, Xia Tian sent another question mark.
It turned out that Gao Xingjian's defense was breached, so he was blocked.
Xia Tian smiled smugly: "Little guy, you still want to tease me?"
Then, Xia Tian responded to other people's New Year greetings one by one.
It took me half an hour just to reply to all these messages.
When Xia Tian was about to put down his phone and go to sleep, his phone suddenly vibrated again.
He glanced at it and found that it was sent by Shen Lexi.
"Happy New Year, Summer."
Xia Tian narrowed his eyes and thought that this was not like Shen Lexi's character.
After thinking for a while, he replied indifferently: "Happy New Year... I'm going to go out with Xiaoye and Luxi tomorrow. Do you want to join them?"
"Hehe, I knew you weren't asleep yet. Since you replied to me, that means you're not with Xiaoyu, right? I was worried that if I told you too much, Xiaoyu would see it... You're such a busy person, everyone must be sending you messages just after midnight. I deliberately waited until now to send you a message, and the message was immediately pushed to the top, hahahahahaha... I told you before, I'll be spending the New Year in Hanzhong, you guys have fun!"
"Um."
Xia Tian didn’t reply, just put down his phone and went to sleep.
.......
The next morning, after Xia woke up, she received a red envelope from her parents.
"Eh? Didn't you say you wouldn't give me a red envelope this year?"
Summer was quite unexpected.
The next second, Chen Meijuan rolled her eyes and said, "I just said that, can I really not give you the New Year's money?"
"Hehe, but forget it, mom. I make my own money now, so you don't have to give me red envelopes anymore."
"No, that won't work. You make money, and we, as your parents, still have to give you what you deserve. Besides, giving New Year's money is for good luck!"
Chen Meijuan stuffed the red envelope into Xia Tian's arms, put on her apron, and continued to say to Xia Tian: "Call Xiao Ye and ask her to come to our house for lunch at noon."
But just after he finished speaking, he was suddenly startled and asked Xia Tian cautiously: "Oh, that's not right. Xiao Ye's grandparents are also in Bei'an now. Isn't it a bad idea to ask her to come over for lunch?"
Seeing that his mother wanted to see Xiaoye but was worried that the current situation was not appropriate, Xia Tian couldn't help but think that his mother was a little cute.
He waved his hand: "I'll call her and ask her. If she thinks it's nothing, she will definitely come over."
"Oh, then go ahead and ask, but don't mention me. I still want to be a good mother-in-law. I can't have any prejudice against me just because Xiaoye didn't marry me."
Chen Meijuan muttered to herself, then went to the kitchen to start cooking.
Xia Tian called Ye Ningyu.
"Would you like to come to my house for lunch? My mom misses you a little."
"Oh, oh, okay... But I have to help grandpa and grandma prepare the meal first. Will I keep you waiting too long?"
"It's okay, I'll just tell my mom, but if you come over on New Year's Day, won't grandpa and the others mind?"
Ye Ningyu on the other end of the phone was silent for a while, then spoke a little embarrassedly:
"Actually...actually, grandma was urging me to go over there just now."
.......
At around twelve o'clock, there was a knock on the door.
When Xiatian opened the door, he saw Xiaoye wearing new clothes, standing at the door shyly.
After hearing the noise, Chen Meijuan ran over from the kitchen with a happy face, without even having time to put down the cooking spatula.
"Hey, Xiaoye is here! Happy New Year!"
"Happy New Year, Auntie, Happy New Year, Uncle!"
Ye Ningyu's pretty face flushed a little, and then she gently placed the things she bought on the table: "Auntie, this is a gift for you and uncle..."
"Kid, go back to your own home and buy something!"
Although Chen Meijuan complained, she always had a smile on her face.
She didn't care what Ye Ningyu bought, but Ye Ningyu's behavior made her feel warm.
Immediately afterwards, Chen Meijuan put down the spatula and hurried into the bedroom.
Soon she came out with a red envelope.
"Xiao Ye, this is a red envelope for you!"
"Thank you, thank you Auntie..."
Ye Ningyu was stunned, and as soon as she finished speaking, Chen Meijuan stuffed the red envelope into her hand.
"Xiao Ye, watch TV with Xia Tian for a while. There's only one dish left to copy!"
"Auntie, let me help..."
"No, no, no, it's New Year's Day, don't go into the kitchen, just let Auntie do it."
Chen Meijuan refused to let Ye Ningyu enter the kitchen no matter what. Helplessly, she could only sit on the sofa and watch TV with Xia Tian.
Taking advantage of this gap, Xia Tian looked at Xiao Ye with a smile and said, "Open the red envelope and take a look. My mother gave me a thousand yuan. See how much she gave you."
"Oh, okay."
Ye Ningyu nodded slightly and opened the red envelope obediently.
However, when the red envelope was opened, Xia Tian was a little dumbfounded.
Xiao Ye also looked at the money in the red envelope with a confused look in his eyes.
There was a total of 10,101 yuan in the red envelope!
Xia Tian and Ye Ningyu both knew what this amount meant.
One thousand and one yuan represents "one in a million". This red envelope is given by the mother-in-law to her future daughter-in-law to express her satisfaction with her and her belief that she is a good daughter-in-law among ten thousand.
"Xiaotian..."
Ye Ningyu raised her head and looked at Xia Tian blankly.
