In the year 2700, a time of rampant materialism, highly developed social production, and a progressively ruined natural environment teetering on the brink of collapse. Niannian, a little red panda ...
Chapter 39 Nian Nian's Welcoming Service
The capable Nian Nian enthusiastically carried out the welcoming service for more than ten days.
Because the little guy is too "dedicated", Shi Lihan and Chen Yi get off work on time more and more, the frequency of overtime has dropped sharply, and they are looking forward to going home every day.
The two of them took out a large stack of cash and put it in the drawer of the company office. After get off work, they each took one bill. When Nian Nian came home to greet them, they would stuff the red bills into Nian Nian's pocket or palm as a small gift and reward.
Shi Linzhuo suffered greatly. With Nian Nian as a model for comparison, Shi Lihan and Chen Yi saw that his nose was not a nose and his eyes were not eyes.
To be fair, who can tolerate a son who either plays games at home all day or goes out to play with the children from the Cheng and Ji families?
Anyway, Shi Lihan and Chen Yi couldn't stand it. Shi Lihan saw that he was idle and re-planned his growth path in his mind. Every time he saw it, he would advance the time when Shi Linzhuo would work like a slave in the company.
The result was that, because Shi Linzhuo was always idle at home, Shi Lihan always caught him idle, so the original plan for him to start working in the company at the age of 20 was brought forward to tomorrow.
After hearing his plan changes, Chen Yi said: "..."
When Lin Zhuo knew that his parents had such an evaluation of him, he was very casual. He said nonchalantly: Who cares about you.
When Lin Zhuo was a fifteen-year-old junior high school student, he only cared about one thing - "competing for favor."
As for whose favor to compete for, it would naturally be Nian Nian.
On a steaming hot morning, he pushed the door open amidst the intense heat outside, beads of sweat on the tip of his nose. Before he even changed his shoes, he howled at the top of his lungs, "Where's Nian Nian? Come and greet your brother!"
"Brother, Nian Nian is here!"
The little guy climbed up from the wool blanket with his butt sticking out, and the little sandals on his feet touched the floor, making a series of tapping sounds.
Thanks to this daily task of welcoming her family, Nian Nian's walking ability has made a qualitative leap compared to just two weeks ago. To put it in a more concrete way, she has transformed from a toddler Psyduck into an agile and nimble chicken.
Nian Nian was trained very well by Shi Linzhuo. The little one took the pack of wet wipes from the coffee table and ran to Shi Linzhuo: "Brother, you've worked hard. Please, please wipe it."
Of course, Shi Guilin didn't teach these lines. Shi Linzhuo, behind everyone's backs, including Yuanyuan, quietly cornered Nian Nian and taught her these brazen words over and over again. Needless to say, the effect was immense; Shi Linzhuo's ears were thoroughly impressed.
Moreover, he has been quietly enjoying this treatment of being greeted by a special person for two days, and today is the third day.
"Yeah, not bad." He took it shamelessly, took two wet wipes and wiped his face, removing a bead of sweat.
As luck would have it, someone came downstairs and witnessed the whole process.
“Ahhhh!”
A sharp female scream pierced Shi Linzhuo's eardrums, startling him so much that he looked in the direction of the sound.
Nian Nian was also dazed, looking towards the stairs.
"You're so shameless, you little bastard!" Shi Nanqi rushed over and pointed at Shi Linzhuo. "You came back from playing all sweaty, and you still dare to trick Nian Nian by saying you've worked hard?! Wow, you're so shameless."
"Uh..." Shi Linzhuo quickly glanced at Nian Nian, touched his nose guiltily, and said in a weak voice, "That's hard work, okay? Playing is also tiring."
Although he and Shi Nanqi are of different generations, they are close in age. They talk to each other casually and do not use their status as elders to make remarks. Their way of getting along can only be described in four words: chaos.
This is exactly the situation right now.
"Hey, you're still being stubborn?" Shi Nanqi was shocked by his unreasonable words. She crossed her arms and half-closed her left eye. "Let me guess, you taught me this secretly, didn't you? I'm sure you don't know."
Shi Linzhuo's neck stiffened, and he begged for mercy in a hoarse voice, "Aunt, don't tell my uncle, he'll complain to my dad! If my dad finds out, I might have to go to work today! Can you bear to let a fifteen-year-old like me suffer the pain of going to work?"
What kind of job could he possibly have at the age of fifteen? If his father asked him to work in the company, it would definitely be like doing hard labor. He didn't want to do that.
"Are you scared now? Haha, you were just being stubborn just now." Shi Nanqi glanced at him and demanded, "Don't exploit our Nian Nian in the future. He's so tired playing with Yuan Yuan every day, how could he have the energy to greet you? You're disturbing the child's play, understand?"
Shi Linzhuo was reluctant to give in, but he was really afraid that such shameful behavior would be exposed to his parents, so he had to give up Nuomituan Niannian's sweet welcoming service with tears and agreed humiliatingly.
"Yeah." Shi Nanqi nodded reluctantly and patted the back of his head. "Let's go upstairs. Hey, your hands are sweaty. Go upstairs and take a shower. Boys of this age are the smelliest."
Shi Linzhuo still has to maintain his image in front of Nian Nian. He doesn't want to be seen as a bad brother in Nian Nian's mind.
"Aunt, please be kind and stop talking. I'll go upstairs right away."
After saying that, he fled to the bathroom on the second floor.
"Hmph, little brat." Shi Nanqi lifted her long hair and raised the corners of her mouth.
Nian Nian was confused the whole time and asked innocently, "Aunt, brother, isn't it hard?"
Nanqi opened her mouth to answer, her eyes rolled around, and suddenly an idea came to her mind. She squatted down, looked Nian Nian in the eye, and said earnestly: "Your brother is on vacation, going out to play every day, it's not hard at all.
I muttered "oh" to myself, not quite believing it.
A cunning light flashed in Shi Nanqi's eyes. She cleared her throat and raised her already sweet voice, making it even more intoxicating: "Niannian, Auntie gets up very late every day, right?"
Nian Nian felt himself getting dizzy again, and he nodded: "Yeah."
"Alas, actually, Auntie wakes up late every day because she doesn't sleep at night."
"No, not sleeping?!" Nian Nian's eyes were filled with shock. He, a good kid who always went to bed early every day, was greatly surprised.
"Well," Shi Nanqi said with a sad expression, "Auntie works hard every night, night after night. Nian Nian, tell me, is Auntie tired?"
She decisively erased her history of staying up late every night to watch TV series.
Nian Nian hesitated: "Hard, hard work?"
"Yes, aunt works very hard. So every day after aunt gets up and goes downstairs, what should Nian Nian say to her?" Shi Nanqi coaxed.
"Well... Auntie, thank you for your hard work. I'll hold you." The little guy imitated her in distress.
"Yes. Nian Nian is really smart."
Nanqi's eyes sparkled, and she was secretly delighted. Hehe, she had secretly enjoyed Xiao Niannian's exclusive welcoming service.
