Chapter 421 Don’t Want It in vain



Meng Qidi and her friend wandered around outside until three o'clock before going to pick up Xiao Chengzi. When they came, the bicycles were full of bags.

They are all gifts given to people during the Chinese New Year.

There was food and drinks in the store, and the little girl fell asleep after eating and drinking her fill.

After sitting in the store for a while, when they went back, Meng Qidi was holding her sleeping niece and Ling Xiao was pushing a bicycle.

When they got home and entered the yard, Wang Jinhua came up to them and took over her sleeping granddaughter. "Weren't you guys going for a walk? Why did you fall asleep?"

Ling Xiao parked the car and said, "I ate and drank at Jin Yue's place, and then fell asleep."

Meng Qidi lowered her head and rubbed her nose. What a liar! It was obvious that he threw it to Jin Yue because he disliked his niece.

Wang Jinhua didn't have much doubt and sent the man back to the house to sleep.

As soon as the old lady left, Ling Xiao winked at Meng Qidi and asked, "How do we get these things?"

Meng Qidi went over to help take the things down. "We can deliver the gifts from the Qiu and Meng families tomorrow morning. For the other family members, we can give them during the New Year dinner. You can return to the team tomorrow. Don't worry about me. We have a car."

The car sent by the Meng family had never been driven before, and she didn't know how to drive it, but Nie Zheng knew how to drive and had a free driver.

Ling Xiao turned his head to look at the Santana in the corner, "How about I teach you how to drive later. You are so smart, you will definitely learn it. It's just right for you to apply for a driver's license in our group."

Ling Xiao offered to teach him how to drive, and Meng Qidi naturally would not refuse. Knowing how to drive would make it convenient to go anywhere.

So, after resting at home for half an hour, Ling Xiao drove Meng Qidi to a deserted road in the suburbs and began to teach her almost step by step.

Fortunately, she was nourished by the Yuquan water and her mind was sharp. She could basically remember what Ling Xiao said.

The brake, handbrake and accelerator seemed to work fine, but every time she pressed them, it was strange, either the car stalled or the speed could not be controlled...

In the end, Ling Xiao lost his temper and simply sat on the side and watched, as long as there was no car accident.

It was dark when the two returned.

"Have you learned it? Next time we go out, Xiaoqi can give us a ride." Wang Jinhua said with a smile.

Xiaoqi is a smart kid. He can learn everything quickly.

Ling Xiao glanced at his wife and said, "Forget it. Next time you go out to play, call me and I'll find a driver for you."

He was afraid that his wife would drive his mother into the ditch...

"It's only been a few hours. It's normal that you can't learn it. Just practice more."

Wang Jinhua was used to it. "But it's a pity to practice with this new car. I'll use Lao Yi's old car to practice with."

Meng Qidi smiled and hugged Wang Jinhua's arm, looking at Ling Xiao proudly, "Mom still loves me, unlike some people, hehe."

Meng Qidi looked at Wang Jinhua aggrievedly, "Mom, he just laughed at me for being stupid..."

Wang Jinhua rolled her eyes at her son and said, "Sleep with me tonight and let him go back to the army."

Ling Xiao...

The next day, Ling Xiao went to the army. Meng Qidi brought the gifts to Mr. Qiu Sanye's manor and asked Yi Bo to help deliver them to the other two families.

"Why be so particular about gifts? There's nothing to give as a gift. It's not necessary." Mr. Qiu said unhappily.

Yi Bo took the things and said, "It's okay, don't listen to your father, I'll help deliver these, maybe there will be gifts in return."

"That's right. I just want to take this opportunity to make some money." Meng Qidi took out the gifts she had prepared for the two of them. "This is for you."

"What kind of gift should it be given by my family?" Yi Bo said, but his hands honestly took it.

She came over to give a New Year's gift, and when she left, Meng Qidi brought almost a car full of things.

Wang Jinhua was shocked by these things. Are city people so polite during the New Year?

The next day was New Year's Eve. Ling Xiao couldn't come back tomorrow and had to wait until the first day of the new year. So after returning from the manor, Meng Qidi started to help.

Making tofu, frying peanuts, boiling sugar, and making New Year cakes. Fortunately, Jin Yue and Wen Xi had a holiday in the store and came to help, otherwise I would definitely be too busy to finish.

The whole house was busy, filled with the festive atmosphere of the New Year...

On the morning of New Year's Day, Meng Qidi took some time out to pick up the custom-made clothes. She didn't plan to wear them on New Year's Day, but planned to wear them on the first day of the new year when she and Ling Xiao went to pay New Year's greetings.

Although Ling Xiao was not at home during the New Year's Eve dinner, the house was bustling. In addition to Jin Yue and Wen Xi, Zhao Dezhong and Nie Zheng were also there. Uncle Yi also came over, pushing Third Master Qiu.

Everyone is in Beijing, and Wang Jinhua doesn’t mind that her son didn’t come back for the New Year. He will be back tomorrow anyway. When he was in his hometown, she wouldn’t see him all year round.

The happiest person during the Chinese New Year was undoubtedly Xiaochengzi. As the youngest in the family, she received a lot of red envelopes, new clothes to wear, and all kinds of food.

She shouted that this was the happiest New Year for her.

People stay up all night on New Year's Eve, and they play until one or two o'clock before yawning and going to rest.

Meng Qidi waited until she returned to the house at noon before preparing to close the door and go to bed early and get up early.

Just as she was about to lock the door, there was a knock on the door. Meng Qidi frowned and picked up the wooden stick behind the door vigilantly.

"Xiao Qi, are you there?" Ling Xiao's voice came in after hearing the sound from inside the door.

Meng Qidi breathed a sigh of relief and quickly put down the wood and opened the door.

"I'm back, Happy New Year."

The man at the door was standing there covered in dew, his nose slightly red from the cold, and he was breathing heavily as he spoke, looking a little disheveled.

Meng Qidi burst out laughing, "Happy New Year, why did you come back so late? It's not too late to come back tomorrow morning."

"I wanted to spend the New Year with you, but in the end I missed it." Ling Xiao was a little annoyed. He always rushed back as soon as the party was dismissed.

"It's not too late, the time is just right." Meng Qidi stretched out her hand and pulled the man in. The man's hands were warm and there were some beads of sweat on them.

"Have the Spring Festival fireworks been set off?"

Ling Xiao helped lock the door.

"Yes, they set off fireworks. I don't know where Nie Zheng got them. Little Chengzi stuck to him all night."

Meng Qidi said sourly that this girl was the one who was most attached to her.

"Then I'll do it for you next time."

Meng Qidi bumped into him and said, "I'm not Xiao Chengzi, don't waste your money, that thing is not safe."

The two locked the door and went into the house while talking. According to the custom in their hometown, a light had to be on in the house.

After returning to the room, Ling Xiao locked the door. Meng Qidi looked at him helplessly, "Wipe it off, your clothes are a little wet."

"It's okay, it's not wet inside." Ling Xiao took off his coat and the clothes underneath were dry.

After sitting with his wife for a while, Ling Xiao went out to take a shower.

It’s the first day of the Lunar New Year and the sun is shining brightly.

Early in the morning.

"Does it look good?" Meng Qidi turned her head and asked.

"nice."

Ling Xiao nodded and helped her straighten her collar. They were both wearing the same clothes they had made last time. If they went out, people would probably know at a glance that they were a couple.

"That's all you can say." Meng Qidi pushed him and said, "Let's go out for dinner. I'll take Xiao Chengzi to pay New Year's greetings later."

"Going to the Qiu and Meng families?" Ling Xiao was pushed to turn around and open the door.

"Well, Uncle Yi said that we should go together. We are the younger generation and we should earn red envelopes."

Since we are already relatives, it would be a waste to refuse this money.
