Chapter 159 Let’s Practice
"Anyway, meeting you is our luck." The knot in our hearts was untied. The mother-in-law also knew that they had asked a fortune teller to see them, and she didn't blame her anymore.
She felt relieved and a lot more relaxed.
The two of them sat here for a while and then got up and left. Just as Dai Qing had packed up her things, Zhang Fushun and his wife also arrived.
"Xiaoqing, Happy New Year. I knew you were home."
"Happy New Year, Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang. I ate the food you sent me. It tasted really good." Dai Qing invited the couple into the living room and made them a cup of chrysanthemum tea. During the New Year, people eat a lot of meat and drink alcohol every day. Chrysanthemum tea can remove grease and nourish the liver.
"I was originally planning to visit you in two days, but I didn't expect Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang to come first."
"It's the same no matter who sees it. When Baoping and Lingzi get married, I will send you an invitation and attend the wedding." Zhang Shunfu laughed. The more he saw this girl, the more he liked her. Since she met him, the family's business has been good, and even his son's lifelong affairs have been solved.
"I will definitely attend their wedding, but when they sent me the food, they said the date hasn't been set yet?"
Dai Qing looked at the couple and smiled gently.
"Marriage is a big deal, and it's not easy to choose an auspicious day."
"That's what I mean. Your aunt is discussing the screening with my mother-in-law. I will definitely be the first to inform you when the time comes." Everything was going smoothly at home. Zhang Shunfu was in high spirits and looked a lot richer.
Zhang Guiqin looked at Dai Qing, took her hand and patted it, "I have a friend who has been having a hard time in recent years. I wanted to come and see you, but I didn't bother you during the Chinese New Year. I'll come after the holiday."
"No problem, you're welcome anytime." In fact, to her, it doesn't matter whether it's before or after the holidays, as long as she can make money.
But since the other party had said so, she naturally couldn't rush it.
The two sat for a while, drank a cup of tea, and then got up and left.
During the Chinese New Year, people visit relatives, especially those with many relatives, when they can visit from the first to the fifteenth day of the month.
But she was different. Ever since she was old enough to understand things, she had never had any relatives around her. It was as if she and her grandfather had jumped out of a crack in a rock and had no relatives around them.
Especially about her parents, grandpa never mentioned them.
Once, she couldn't help it and asked her grandfather. Her grandfather had a gloomy face and was silent for a long time before he spoke.
She said that her father and mother died after she was born.
After Grandpa said this, he didn't speak for several days, as if he was trying hard to endure something. She was so scared at the time that she never dared to ask again.
From then on, grandpa never mentioned anything about her parents again, and she never learned any clues about her parents until he passed away.
Just breathe a sigh of relief. It's actually quite good to be alone, without any worries.
What are the disadvantages? As long as you don't deprive her of her money, it doesn't matter if the rest falls on her head.
"What are you thinking about? You look so gloomy, as if someone owes you money?" Cheng Hao leaned against the door with his hands in his pockets, looking at her with a smile. It was New Year's Day, what sad thing was this girl thinking about?
Looking at the gift boxes on the table,
"Why aren't you happy when your friends come to visit?"
Dai Qing came back to her senses and looked at Cheng Hao at the door, especially his amber eyes that shone with a dark luster, looking at her tenderly. He was wearing a dark green coat and a gray scarf around his neck, which made him look much warmer.
"Why are you here? Didn't you say you were going to meet your comrades?"
"...Could you please stop poking my nose in my guts? Shouldn't you be surprised that I came to see you?" Cheng Hao covered his chest, and was convinced once again that this little girl was not only unenlightened, but also simply had no understanding of romance.
The atmosphere was so good just now. According to the other girls' thoughts, even if they didn't jump over, they should have been very surprised. But she became an expert in destroying the atmosphere.
Dai Qing: “…”
Is there something wrong with what she just said?
"I've been running all morning and I'm so thirsty. Give me a glass of water to moisten my throat." Forget it, even if it's a little silly goose, he has accepted it.
As a retired soldier, I have made up my mind about people and things and I will never look back.
Dai Qing poured him a cup of chrysanthemum tea and placed it in front of him. "Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang came over just now and said they would invite me to the wedding banquet when Zhang Baoping's marriage is settled."
"That boy finally got his wish. With his straightforward personality, it would be a good idea for him to get married sooner rather than later, so that he won't be snatched away by someone else."
Obviously, their family is in business, and Uncle Zhang and his wife are both very smooth-talking, but why is it that when it comes to Zhang Baoping, he is almost so stubborn?
The couple were good at business and gave birth to a baby boy.
Aunt Zhang chose Guan Ling as his wife mainly because of their complementary personalities. He had met Guan Ling several times, and although she was still young, she would definitely become a strong woman in the future.
"There's a party tonight, let's go together. I called today and Chang Hui said he must take you there."
Cheng Hao held the teacup and looked at her eagerly.
Dai Qing: “…”
She really wasn't used to a gathering of grown men surrounded by smoke.
"No, I'll come back smelling of cigarettes and alcohol." Dai Qing suddenly realized that apart from business dealings, she seemed to be a bit of a homebody and didn't like to interact with people too much.
Seeing Dai Qing's resisting look, Cheng Hao didn't force herself and sat here to spend the afternoon with her.
Dai Qing held her chin and looked at him quietly for a moment, "Do you want to practice?"
Cheng Hao: “…”
Little girl, you’ve only practiced for a few days and you’re already so good?
"I've made great progress now. Last time, I even used the boxing skills you taught me to do something heroic." Dai Qing smiled slightly, her big almond eyes twinkling. Apart from the coldness, there was actually a bit of sweetness.
"What? With your weak kung fu, you dare to do something brave. Are you hurt?" Cheng Hao stood up and pulled her arm to look her up and down, but Dai Qing slapped him away.
"I'm so powerful, how could I get hurt?" Dai Qing looked at him with dissatisfaction and contempt, and soon knocked him down.
Cheng Hao stood up straight and squinted his eyes, "Are you sure you want to practice with me?"
"Of course, let's go to the yard." Dai Qing raised her chin slightly, stood proudly in the yard, and hooked her finger at Cheng Hao, "I'm very strong, you have to be careful."
Cheng Hao: “…”
I took off my coat, untied my scarf, flexed my wrists, and walked into the yard, squinting at the arrogant kid across the street.
"If I win, you are not allowed to do anything brave and righteous in the future?"
"Then I'll tell you after you win."
Dai Qing clenched her fists, her eyes sharpened, and she stepped forward, punching directly at the opponent's chest. Cheng Hao raised his eyebrows, dodged to the side, and raised his hand to grab her wrist, but Dai Qing dodged it by turning her wrist as soon as it touched her, and she didn't forget to smile at him provocatively.
Cheng Hao narrowed his eyes. The little girl really had some talent. She could actually avoid him?
It seems that she has been practicing hard in private.
