"Let's get out of here." Jiang Yi's heart was still beating fast, but she was able to catch her breath. "My brother will be here soon."
She was still held by him.
I don’t know whose body temperature is hotter, it’s a bit hot.
She didn't dare look at him, "We still have to go back to have the New Year's Eve dinner, do you want to come with me? But my house is not as good as yours, please don't despise it."
"It's too late for you to say this now." Nie Can said with a smile.
Pan Qiang drove his Santana to the entrance of the teahouse first.
The eldest sister-in-law asked, "Why are you the only one here?"
Pan Qiang covered his mouth and laughed, "Maybe he went to watch something exciting. But it shouldn't take too long, right?"
Jiang Yang drove up in a pickup truck and was startled when he saw Pan Qiang. "Didn't you say you were going to spend the New Year in Pengcheng?"
Pan Qiang's heart skipped a beat. "Oh, the boss has changed his mind again."
Oh my God, the brother-in-law doesn’t know yet that the eldest brother wants to date Sister Jiang. Who knows what will happen if he is discovered. Everything has to be decided by the eldest brother himself, so Pan Qiang doesn’t dare to say it directly.
The eldest sister-in-law was like a lifesaver. "How about we go back first, and you can take Captain Nie and Yiyi with you later?"
Jiang Yang asked: "Yes, where is Yiyi?"
"Maybe he went shopping." The sister-in-law asked Jiang Yang to help put the prepared New Year's Eve dishes to be taken home on the pickup truck.
Unexpectedly, just as he put it down, Jiang Yi and Nie Can came back.
Jiang Yi saw her elder brother from a distance, her scalp tingled, and she subconsciously took two quick steps. It seemed that she and Nie Can were walking one in front and one behind.
Jiang Yang didn't think that way at all. Seeing Nie Can, he smiled and said, "I thought you weren't coming?"
"There's nowhere to go anyway, so I'll just join in the fun."
Nie Can glanced at the cowardly woman, curled his lips slightly, and lit a cigarette for Jiang Yang.
Jiang Yi then remembered that there was a faint smell of cigarettes in his mouth just now, but she was so distracted at the time that she didn't notice it. Later, it was sweet.
Her face suddenly felt hot.
His eyes darted to Pan Qiang, "Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something first?"
Pan Qiang looked resentful: "I'm really hungry. The boss didn't stop all the way—"
"cough."
Pan Qiang immediately fell silent and whispered to Jiang Yi, "Actually, today is the boss' birthday."
"What?" Jiang Yi was surprised and finally looked him in the eye. "Why didn't you tell me about your birthday earlier?"
Nie Can's eyes fell on her still red lips. He took a puff of cigarette and his Adam's apple rolled slightly. "Did you say you would make me a cake?"
"It's not impossible." Jiang Yi's face became even hotter when she met his gaze. "But baking takes too much time and I don't want to keep everyone waiting. I'll go to the kitchen to find some ingredients and make you a steamed cake when I get back."
He said "Oh", "Thank you, Sister Jiang."
Jiang Yi's heart skipped a beat.
On the way back, I didn't dare to ride in his car, for fear of overloading my heart. I rode in my eldest brother's pickup truck with my eldest sister-in-law, but my heartbeat still couldn't completely calm down along the way.
In addition, her sister-in-law would look at her mouth from time to time and then smile strangely, which not only caused her heart rate to become irregular, but also gave her goose bumps.
His kiss just now was short, but heavy.
It took more than half an hour to get back to the village.
The New Year atmosphere is stronger in the countryside. No matter whether the family is rich or poor, they will buy or make new clothes for the children. The children will take a bath early, wear new clothes, set off firecrackers everywhere, or go to the homes of close relatives such as uncles and aunts to ask for New Year's money.
Chinese New Year is a festival for children.
Their laughter was everywhere.
Jiang Yang's house is next to his second uncle's and third uncle's houses, forming a "品" shape. Theirs is at the top. Because his second uncle opened a brick kiln a few years ago, all his houses are brick and tile houses. There are no yards, but there is an open space in front of every house.
When the little fruit saw his mother, he ran over like a whirlwind. Before he jumped into her arms, he heard a "woof". His mother didn't want him anymore and ran to the big golden retriever, "Great, grandpa is here too!"
Jiang Yi still had her hand stretched out, feeling as if her heart was stabbed by an arrow.
My son has grown up.
Is her status even lower than that of a dog?
Little Guozi saw Nie Can and Pan Qiang again, and shouted, "Uncle Nie, Uncle Pan."
Nie Can asked Pan Qiang to move the gifts from the trunk of the car. He gave Xiao Guozi a toy train with tracks, a toy airplane for Shanshan, and a set of Calabash Brothers for them to play with together.
The two children happily took their father-in-law to show off to their friends in the village.
Children can easily make friends. After just one day, they can make several friends.
Nie Can also brought gifts for other people. Xu Cuilian got a warm wool sweater, his sister-in-law got a bird's nest, and Jiang Yang got a tie. He smiled and said that it was just right to match his sister's new suit.
Nie Can said "Hmm?" and looked at a certain woman, and that look said: So your brother has it too.
Jiang Yi didn't look at him and went to help her mother cook.
The sister-in-law thanked him and rolled up her sleeves to help.
Jiang Yao jumped out, "Uncle Nie! Why are you here?" Could it be...
When I saw that everyone else had gifts, I reached out and asked, "Where's mine?"
Nie Can smiled and asked, "What place did you get in the exam?"
Jiang Yao proudly held up four fingers, "Fortieth place, ten places higher than the fifty you requested."
"That's not bad." Nie Can took out the signed poster, "It's a reward for you."
Jiang Yao took it as if it were an imperial decree.
"Thank you, Lord."
After opening it, I exclaimed, "Wow!" and laughed like a pig. "Uncle Nie, you are such a nice person! All the beautiful words in the world are not enough to praise you even a third."
Nie Can smiled again, "That's enough."
Pan Qiang stepped forward with a smile, "Sister Xiaoyao, this is also my contribution. I helped to remind the boss."
"Then I'll give you a chicken leg later!" Jiang Yao smiled back at him.
Pan Qiang laughed even harder.
The deer ran wildly.
My heart was pounding.
Spring is here.
In the kitchen, Jiang Yi and her sister-in-law were steaming fish and pork ribs, while the other was chopping a chicken. Her sister-in-law asked, "What gift did Captain Nie give you?"
Jiang Yi then remembered that everyone had sent gifts, even his second and third uncles had sent cigarettes and alcohol, but she had not.
The eldest sister-in-law continued to eat melons: "Then when you went to pick him up before, nothing happened?"
Jiang Yi turned away, "Nothing happened."
Sister-in-law: I don’t believe you. Your expression has already betrayed you.
Their family should be the last to have dinner in the whole village. Before eating, they would set off a round of firecrackers to get rid of the old and welcome the new.
Jiang Yang also called his second and third uncles, and everyone sat around the big round table drinking and eating.
The four indispensable dishes for the Chinese New Year in Jiangjia Village are chicken, fish, lettuce, and pork knuckles. Jiang Yi also steamed spareribs with black bean sauce, and brought back candied sweet potatoes, braised prawns, and stewed lamb chops from the teahouse, a total of eight dishes.
Pan Qiang drooled, "Sister, does this have any meaning?"
Jiang Yang glanced at him and said, "Good boy, when did my sister become your sister? But seeing that you have come all the way here, you may have to accept it reluctantly."
Jiang Yi said, "Chicken is auspicious, fish is needless to say, it means surplus every year, lettuce is for making money, pig's trotters are for making fortunes, and for the rest, you can think for yourselves."
Jiang Yao, the class representative, raised her hand and said, "I know, this sweet potato with sugar must be sweet, and this spareribs with black bean sauce... is it sweet?" Then she asked Nie Can, "Isn't it, Uncle Nie?"
Don't think she didn't notice.
Every time this guy glances at me, his eyes are almost tearing.
Jiang Yi had never looked directly at Nie Can since he came home. Now he finally looked at him. He also looked over, and the corners of his lips curled up. "Really, Boss Jiang?"
Jiang Yi quickly looked away, "Come on, everyone, eat while it's hot."
I didn't notice that the man's eyes narrowed slightly.
Pan Qiang was still smart, "Wow, Boss, this black bean sauce spareribs is your favorite, my sister is really...what did Xiaoyao say just now?"
"So sweet!" Jiang Yao said with a smile.
"Yes, that's what I mean! Yeah!" He stood up and high-fived Jiang Yao.
With these two funny guys at the reunion dinner, it was like they were performing crosstalk, making everyone laugh.
Nie Can glanced at a woman who was almost buried in her bowl, "Is Boss Jiang nearsighted? Do you have to get so close to see the food clearly?"
Jiang Yi was stunned and looked up, "No."
The man's eyes were dark and teasing, and her heart started beating wildly again. "Well, let's toast together. I wish us a happy new year, good health, and prosperous business."
Everyone raised their glasses and drank.
Xu Cuilian was happy and drank a glass of white wine. "I wonder if Captain Nie can get used to it. I heard from Jiang Yang that you are from the north. Do you make dumplings during the Chinese New Year?"
"Yes." Nie Can replied.
"We don't make dumplings here, but we do make wontons." Jiang Yi knew it was his birthday, "Wait a minute."
