Chapter 158 She is not a talkative person
Under the incandescent light, Cheng Hao stared at Dai Qing. His eyes were as deep and dark as the abyss, as if he could suck people in with just a blink of an eye.
But facing the calm eyes on the other side, I felt both frustrated and felt that this was how it should be.
His child is still young and naturally doesn't have any unnecessary thoughts.
"Have you eaten?" Dai Qing looked at him and asked seriously.
It must be tiring to travel back and forth during the New Year. Without a hot meal, it will freeze in a short while.
"No~." Cheng Hao curled the corners of his lips. Sure enough, the child still cared about him.
"Drink some hot water first, I'll heat up two dishes for you." Dai Qing stood up and took out the braised sea cucumber from the refrigerator and heated it up, plus a plate of Chinese cabbage stuffed with tofu and two steamed buns.
"These dishes were sent by Zhang Baoping. He said they were made by a master chef from the south. Try them. Are they the same as what you eat in the south?"
Cheng Hao looked at her, then at the two dishes on the table. "During my time in the south, I didn't have time to go to a restaurant for a good meal. I just had fast food."
He discovered that when dealing with children, he couldn't just report good news without telling them about worries. He had to make her worry a little so that she would miss him.
"Ah? So urgent?" She knew that doing business was difficult, but she didn't expect that even eating would require every second count.
Sure enough, no one can succeed easily.
"Fortunately, all the efforts are worth it. I shouldn't be too busy this year. If you are curious, you can come with me to have a look. The pace of life in the south is different from ours."
Cheng Hao picked up a steamed bun, took a bite, ate a piece of meat stew, and suggested softly.
"Me? I have to go to work. I don't have time."
She knew that the development of the South would always be ahead of their city. Many people said that as long as one dared to venture out and fight hard, the South was full of gold.
But she knew that no matter how much gold she had, it was still tied to her strength. Without strength, she would be helpless no matter where she went. Even if she was lucky enough to receive a black magic spell, she would only be a help to others.
Cheng Hao finished two plates of food and two steamed buns. Dai Qing also peeled an orange for him to help him lessen his greasy stomach, as an after-meal fruit.
"I suddenly feel like I'm home." Cheng Hao pinched the orange and looked at her gently with a smile in the corner of his eyes.
When he got home, he found someone to cook for him and to keep him company. This was the feeling he longed for.
Dai Qing looked at him speechlessly. The young man's idea was a bit dangerous.
"When are you planning to leave? I heard that tickets to the south are hard to buy?" Dai Qing looked at him and asked curiously, and then the air suddenly became silent.
After a while, Cheng Hao chuckled and said, "You really are..." The King of Fun.
Seeing Cheng Hao looking at her with a puzzled look, Dai Qing suddenly realized, "Hey~, I don't mean anything else, I just want to ask."
"I thought you didn't welcome me." Cheng Hao squinted and looked at her with a deep look in his eyes.
Dai Qing simply kept silent. It seemed that she really wasn't very good at talking.
"The whole country is on holiday during the Chinese New Year. I originally wanted to take advantage of the holiday to make a few more boards and get the spring version out first, but the factory workers all went home for the holiday, so I had to wait until the eighth day of the Chinese New Year to officially start work."
Cheng Hao took a sip of water and looked at Xiao Hei who was nesting at the door. The dog was so dark that it could not be seen unless one looked carefully.
"I'll leave on the sixth."
"oh,"
"Come with me for a walk on the street. I saw a lot of red lanterns on the way here. They were quite bright." Cheng Hao stood up, walked around her, looked down at her, his eyes full of invitation.
"good."
We were just out for a stroll. After all, they were our friends. It wouldn't be a good idea to be too distant from them.
Although it is winter, there are many stars in the night sky. The crescent moon hanging in the night sky adds a lot of color to the red lanterns on the trees.
On the street, there were a few people coming out to look at the lanterns.
The two of them walking on the road didn't seem out of place at all.
Strolling, the two came to the Cultural Palace and looked at the colorful lights hanging on the gate, flashing. Many people were dancing and walking inside the Cultural Palace.
The two of them didn't go in. They just walked around the outside of the Cultural Palace and then went home.
Cheng Hao walked him to the doorstep and said, "I'm going to meet Bao Ping and Chang Hui tomorrow night. You can come with me. You know both of them. It's a good opportunity for us to get together."
"You comrades are reminiscing, I won't bother you." She would have to ask someone to take care of her then, which would be boring. She might as well practice her boxing and mental skills at home by herself.
"...Okay, go to bed early. I'll come back early and see you later."
Dai Qing did not refuse this. After all, this person was leaving on the sixth day of the New Year and would not stay for many days at most.
Watching Dai Qing come in, Cheng Hao stood at the door in silence for a moment, shaking his head helplessly. He originally thought that he was happy that the child didn't understand, but now he felt quite depressed.
The next day, Dai Qing opened her eyes at eight o'clock in the morning.
After getting up and washing up, I made myself a cup of maltose and two egg cakes, which solved my breakfast problem.
I had just finished practicing martial arts boxing in the yard when I heard a knock on the door.
Seeing Feng Yong and Lan Qin standing at the door, Dai Qing was surprised, "Why are you here?"
The second day of the Lunar New Year is the day when girls go back to their parents' home. What is this guy doing here?
"Master Dai, Happy New Year! We have come specially to wish you a happy new year."
"Is it because I didn't inform you in advance that I disturbed you, Master?" Lan Qin held the gift in both hands, bowed slightly, and was very sincere.
"No, I'm alone and I don't have any relatives to visit." Dai Qing invited them in and looked at them with their bags, feeling a little embarrassed. "Don't bring gifts in the future. I can't finish them all by myself."
"How can we visit someone empty-handed during the Chinese New Year? We all know this little bit of etiquette."
Feng Yong smiled brightly.
"Master is our benefactor. If I hadn't met you, we wouldn't be as harmonious as we are now. And there are things about my work. Master's kindness, I, Feng Yong, will always remember it in my heart."
Lan Qin nodded in agreement.
"That's absolutely true. I am grateful to you from the bottom of my heart. My friend Caixia came back with the good news after seeing you. If it weren't for the fact that she was too young and the doctor had asked her to stay in bed, she would have come here a long time ago."
"When I came here today, Caixia specifically told me that once her pregnancy is stable, the three of us would come in person to thank you."
She and Tian Caixia shared the same suffering, and she felt bad seeing Tian Caixia looking so depressed, so she wanted to let her try her luck, but she didn't expect the surprise to come so suddenly.
Then she will surely achieve her wish in two or three years.
"When your friend came, she was already pregnant. It was her own blessing and has nothing to do with me." She was just giving a reminder, it was really not a big deal.
"It's a small matter for you, but it's a great joy for us. Caixia is also a miserable person, and her desire for a child is even stronger than mine."
She had never been pregnant from the beginning to the end. Although she was anxious, her situation was different from Caixia's. She had miscarried two children in succession and was driven crazy.
