Xia Youyou didn't know what Qi Siling was thinking. She landed at Cao's house at two in the morning.
It was late at night and there was no one on the road, so Xia Youyou took a bolder step and landed directly in the yard of her home.
This way, she and her mother wouldn't have to hang out outside late at night. The weather in Beijing is different from that in the south. It's freezing here now!
Xia Youyou learned her lesson and wrapped herself in a thick coat with her mother in the cabin before getting off the plane.
"Youyou, you go into the house first. I'll go to the back to light the fire wall." Liu Hui shrank her neck and was about to go to the back.
Xia Youyou put away the aircraft and followed her, "Mom, go to the room and put on some thick pants first. There's no rush for the firewall."
"No, it won't take long to light the wall fire. Besides, it's definitely cold in the room. If you change your pants in the cold, it will be even colder!"
Xia Youyou couldn't persuade her, so she could only follow her to the backyard, watch her light the fire, and pass her firewood.
The two of them worked together in perfect harmony and completed the fire wall in five minutes.
Xia Youyou took her hand and pulled her into her room, "Mom, let's sleep together tonight."
Liu Hui checked the time and saw that it was indeed getting late. They were both tired and decided to just sleep in for the night.
It was rare for the two of them to sleep until noon.
After getting up and washing up, I remembered that they had landed directly in the yard and the gate was still locked.
Fortunately, the courtyard has a corner gate that leads directly to another street.
The two men packed up, wrapped themselves in thick coats, and one of them carried a small bag. They avoided people and went out through the corner door, then turned a big corner and opened the door in front.
Xia Youyou couldn't help laughing, "Mom, why are we still acting like thieves when we get home?"
Liu Hui scolded her angrily, "Nonsense! We are thieves!" She flew directly into the yard, which was just the behavior of a thief!
"Hahahaha..." The laughter of the mother and daughter could be heard from far away. The old lady guarding the phone at the entrance of the alley heard the sound and looked over, only to find that it was them.
"Hey, you guys are back!"
Xia Youyou turned her head to look over, a bright smile on her face. "Happy New Year!" She pretended to dig in her bag and took out a handful of candy, placing it next to the phone on the table. "Give it to the kids at home to have some sweets."
"Oh, how can I accept yours!" The old lady tried to refuse quickly. She felt a little embarrassed that every time she greeted her family, they would give her some gifts!
Liu Hui also smiled and said, "It's just a little bit of sugar, you're welcome."
Unable to refuse, the old lady had to accept it, and a series of festive words came out of her mouth.
After waving goodbye to the old lady, Xia Youyou took Liu Hui's arm and went to knock on the door of the old house.
Uncle Zi, who came to open the door, was a little confused. Their family didn't have much contact with the neighbors, so who would come to visit on the third day of the New Year?
Xia Youyou pulled her mother to hide aside. Zi Bo asked several times but no one answered. Just as he was about to go back, the door was knocked again.
"Who is it?" Zi Bo was impatient and opened the door and yelled outside.
"Hey! It's me!" Xia Youyou jumped out from the side, scaring Zi Bo.
"Ah! Sister-in-law!" Zi Bo was so scared that he took a step back, then he recognized the two of them with surprise!
"Aunt! Sister-in-law, why are you back? Where are my brother and the others?" After saying that, he looked behind them.
Xia Youyou stopped him and said, "Don't look, they haven't come back."
"Ah~?" The voice was drawn out, with some disappointment.
"Stop!" Xia Youyou twisted his shoulders and pushed the door open. "Go in quickly. I want to wish Grandpa a happy new year!"
The children inside heard the noise and ran out quickly, circling around Xia Youyou and Liu Hui and shouting happily.
Xia Youyou covered her ears and couldn't stop laughing.
Zi Qiu and Zi Dong were happy to see that she was finally well. They pushed aside the group of brats, each holding the hand of one of them, and went to find their grandfather in a proud manner.
Grandpa Qi and Grandpa Xiao were drinking tea in the warm lobby, and they were a little surprised to see them return. But seeing that Xia Youyou looked normal and her smile didn't seem forced, they all felt relieved.
Youyou's appearance that day was really worrying.
"Grandpa! Grandpa Xiao! We're back!" Xia Youyou called out to the two of them softly, pulling out two large red envelopes from her bundle. "This is what Brother Qi and I prepared for you. We're being unfilial by not being home with you for the New Year this year."
"Nonsense!" Old Master Qi glared at her angrily and pushed the red envelope away. "Be good and wish me a happy new year, and I'll give you a red envelope."
After saying that, he took out the red envelope he had prepared long ago from his pocket and waved it at her, "Hurry up and say auspicious words to grandpa! If that brat doesn't come back, both of them are yours!"
Grandpa Xiao also took out the red envelopes, "Yes, you are so sweet, come on and say something to make us happy, and I will give you both red envelopes!"
Everyone gathered behind her, looking forward to the show.
Xia Youyou blushed and pretended to be distressed, "I wish Grandpa to be as prosperous as pine and cypress, and live forever!"
"May Grandpa Xiao's Nanshan Stone last forever!"
The little boy behind me started to make a fuss after hearing this, and he almost blew the roof off with his yelling!
The two old men were so happy that they gave her all the red envelopes in their hands. "Hurry up and put them away. Don't let that brat know! They are all yours!"
Xia Youyou pursed her lips and smiled with a reserved expression, even a hint of gloating, "I will definitely not let him know!"
After saying that, he handed over the red envelope he had prepared for the old man, "Look, I've already taken yours, you have to take mine too, otherwise it's not fair!"
Old Master Qi nodded at her, and finally accepted it without saying anything.
Old Master Xiao felt a little embarrassed, so Xia Youyou frowned and said, "Grandpa Xiao doesn't give me any face at all!"
"You kid!" I finally accepted it. I thought, forget it, we are family, I can't be so polite!
Liu Hui sat down next to them and started chatting with the two old men.
Xia Youyou was surrounded by the little ones. She took out the red envelopes she had prepared long ago from her bag and gave them out one by one.
I also took out some snacks I bought in Hong Kong and shared them with them.
The whole family was laughing and joking, and Xia Youyou felt like her face was about to freeze from laughing.
I haven't laughed so freely in a long time. It seems that I was too fragile before and protected too well, so I was so vulnerable.
Fortunately, I figured it out now!
Otherwise, if everyone worries about her, it will be her fault!
At noon, Liu Hui helped to cook, while Xia Youyou played chess with the two old men in the main room.
She hadn't studied the subject much, and Go itself was simple. Once she figured out the pattern, she began to tease her grandfather.
After dropping the piece, he picked it up again and said, "Oops, this is wrong, I'll change the place!"
"No, no! No regrets after making a move!" Old Master Qi blew his beard in anger, and watched her painfully as she ate a hole in his chess piece.
Xia picked up the pieces leisurely and pretended to drop them carelessly, "Oh, this place seems nice too!"
"Hey! Give grandpa some face~"
"Okay, I'll put it somewhere else." Xia Youyou calmly picked it up and put it back in an unimportant place.
Old Master Qi stroked his beard with satisfaction, and then ate a few of Xia Youyou's seeds.
"Oh! Grandpa, how can you cheat!"
