Chapter 36 Little Wolfdog Brother
Lin Xiaotong came to work today wearing a cloth mask, revealing a pair of big round eyes.
"Xiao Lin, why are you like this today?"
"Sister Mei, you don't even know the entrance to our alley..."
Before Lin Xiaotong even sat down on the bench, she started gossiping all day.
He Cuicui next to her pretended to be uninterested, but she moved her butt over here and listened to the gossip quietly with her ears perked up.
Yan Yue was the last one to arrive today. As soon as she came in, she had a cold face and just sat there blankly without saying a word.
Lin Xiaotong and Sister Mei finally finished gossiping. They looked up and saw Yan Yue in a daze.
Lin Xiaotong was also tired of talking, so she drank some warm water to clear her throat.
"Sister Yan, what happened to you today?"
After she said that, she quickly moved to Yan Yue's side and said, "Well, something big must have happened. Miss Yan, who usually smells sweet, doesn't even smell like a flower today."
"It's just... a friend of mine is having some troubles lately."
"Tell me about it."
Lin Xiaotong understood the classic I Have a Friend series immediately.
"She is being pursued by a neighbor boy who is a few years younger than her. What do you think she should do?"
Lin Xiaotong asked this question first: "Sister Yan, is your friend single? Does he have a partner?"
“No.”
"That's fine, Sister Yan, just go ahead."
Lin Xiaotong suddenly remembered the high school boy she had met before. What was his name... Huo Qi, yes, that was the name.
A young wolfdog with a very bad temper (Huo Qi).
"This...I...my friend has always treated him as a younger brother."
Yan Yue blushed at Lin Xiaotong's direct words, and she stammered, almost mentioning herself.
"Hey! Sister Yan, you two...what's the age difference between your friend and your brother?"
"Three years old."
Huo Qi is just 18 years old this year and is in his second year of high school. Yan Yue is 21 years old.
"He's only three years old, what are you afraid of? Think about it, the neighbor's brother knows everything about him, he's good-looking and still young, he's easy to take down."
As she spoke, she thought of Huo Qi's appearance and glanced at the gorgeous red rose in front of her. Both of them had strong facial features.
The arrogant little wolfdog has his eyes on sister Red Rose.
Wow, she started shipping the couple right away.
Only then did Yan Yue realize that Lin Xiaotong had known for a long time that this friend was herself. She smiled with her peach blossom eyes and gave Lin Xiaotong a slight glare.
Lin Xiaotong felt half of her body softened by this look: "Sister, please don't flirt with me."
“Haha ...
He Cuicui really couldn't hold it in anymore. Seeing her like this, she laughed until her mouth cramped.
Sister Mei also laughed out loud, making Lin Xiaotong blush.
Another noisy day has passed.
After get off work, Lin Xiaotong rode her bike and walked side by side with Yan Yue. They were going the same way ahead.
The two men rode their bikes past a middle school. It was just the time for school to be over in the morning. All they saw was a sea of green military uniforms. They stopped to let the crowd pass.
"Sister, are you here to wait for me after school today?"
Yan Yue's little wolf-dog brother ran to Yan Yue's side, and because he ran so fast, a hair on his head stood up.
His clothes were not properly dressed, his green military bag was wrinkled, and he looked unruly.
"Huo Qi, I..."
Yan Yue didn't expect to run into Huo Qi just after get off work. When she thought about how she had just told Lin Xiaotong and the others about herself and Huo Qi in the morning, her expression suddenly became uncomfortable.
"Sister Yan, you guys chat slowly, I'm going home to eat first."
Lin Xiaotong looked at the handsome man and beautiful woman in front of her, rode away on her bike, and made a cheering gesture to Yan Yue.
"Sister, are you tired from work?"
"Sister, I don't have a bike. Can you give me a ride?"
"Sister, there's no room for your feet in the back seat."
"Sister, I can take you with me."
"Sister, why is your face red?"
"elder sister……"
…
At the gate of Tianshuijing compound.
The entrance to the alley is particularly quiet today, and none of the children who usually play there are here.
The bluestone floor at the entrance of the alley was wet from the water, and you could faintly smell a slight stench.
Lin Xiaotong held her breath, and with all her strength she lifted the bicycle and went to the yard.
"Aunt Qiaofeng, what are you doing?"
As soon as she entered the gate, she saw Ernengzi's mother, Jin Qiaofeng, standing under the apricot tree in the front yard, swaying with a red silk ribbon.
"Xiaotong, are you off work yet? National Day is coming up soon, and our neighborhood is going to put on a song and dance show. I'm trying to make the most of my time practicing."
"Xiaotong, your mother-in-law wants to participate too!"
"Oh, so that's how it is. Auntie, you practice first. I'm going home."
"Let's go."
After seeing everyone leave, Jin Qiaofeng continued to practice attentively.
"Mom, are you guys going to participate in the National Day program?"
Sure enough, when Lin Xiaotong returned home, she saw Comrade Gao Xiulan also holding a red silk ribbon and swaying in the same posture.
"Xiaotong, you're back."
"Hey, listen to what Jin Qiaofeng said. There's a show going on in the courtyard, and several old ladies are participating."
Jin Qiaofeng in the front yard, Gao Xiulan, Zhang Dazui, Yu Afen, Diao Yulian in the back yard, and Yang Shujuan from the old Xia family who moved in this year.
The six women put together a song and dance program and had a week to rehearse before performing it in the street auditorium on National Day evening.
Lin Xiaotong went to the kitchen and put the food on the table. She asked, "Mom, have you prepared uniforms?"
"Not yet. In previous years, the street provided the funds. This year, they haven't announced anything yet. I'll go ask this afternoon to see if we have to pay for it ourselves."
When Gao Xiulan thought of this, she could no longer dance with the red silk ribbon.
After lunch and waiting for Lin Xiaotong to go to work, Gao Xiulan locked the door and hurried to find her sisters.
"Big Mouth, Big Mouth, did the Subdistrict Office say they'll provide clothes for this year's National Day performance?"
"Here I am, here I am. You didn't tell me. I'll go to the front room and ask Jin Qiaofeng if she knows."
Zhang Dazui was wiping the table. After hearing this, he threw away the rag and went straight to find Jin Qiaofeng.
"Qiaofeng, Qiaofeng, Jin Qiaofeng, where did they go? They're not in the house anymore."
Zhang Dazui and Gao Xiulan came together. They looked left and right but couldn't find Jin Qiaofeng in front of or behind the house.
"Who is it? I'm outside."
Zhang Dazui and Gao Xiulan followed the sound, walked out of the courtyard, and saw Jin Qiaofeng practicing dancing at the entrance of the alley.
There is a long and narrow square area at the gate of their compound, which is where Hu Tou and his friends usually play the game of catching the Japanese.
Now that the stench has dissipated, Jin Qiaofeng is secretly practicing hard on her own, quietly improving herself and surprising everyone.
"You are so good, Jin Qiaofeng, you are practicing secretly behind our backs."
Zhang Dazui said that Jin Qiaofeng danced much better this year than last year, and she was wondering about it in the morning.
"I just have nothing to do this afternoon so I came here to dance."
Being discovered, Jin Qiaofeng laughed awkwardly a few times.
"By the way, what did you call me for?"
Jin Qiaofeng quickly changed the subject.
"Oh, that's right. What are we going to do with our performance costumes this year? Has the neighborhood office told us how to arrange it?"
"Well, I don't know about this, but I don't think we'll have to pay for it ourselves."
Jin Qiaofeng thought about how Director Ma from the Street Office didn't say anything when he informed her yesterday about the program arrangements, but just smiled in a friendly manner.
"Isn't Ma Baoguo thinking that we should advance the money for the clothes?"
"No, we have to go find him."
The three of them rushed to the street office to find out what was going on.
