557: Is she a sister or an aunt?
Seeing the two little guys staring at people without blinking, Chen Shukui reminded them:
"Ranran, Haohao, call for help."
The two little guys then raised their chubby little hands and said in a baby voice:
"Happy New Year, Uncle Zhou."
Zhou Ziheng rarely smiled at the children, put down his things, took out two red envelopes from his pocket, and gave one to each of them:
"This is the red envelope my uncle gave me. Keep it safe."
The two children saw the red paper bag and said in a well-trained manner:
"Thank you, Uncle Zhou!"
Yu Xiaoye, who was standing by, was also well prepared. He took out a handful of candies and two chocolates from his pocket, bent down, and asked with a smile, imitating the child's tone:
"Ranran Haohao, do you want some candy?"
The two little guys didn't react much when they saw the red envelopes, but when they saw the White Rabbit candies, their eyes lit up and they dropped the red envelopes to grab the candies:
"Ah, it's milk candy, thank you sister."
Yu Xiaoye touched the little guy's head:
"You're welcome!"
At this time, Zhou Ziheng also bent down like Yu Xiaoye and said to the two children with a smile:
"Don't call me sister, call me auntie."
Yu Xiaoye: “???!!” He turned his head in shock and looked at Zhou Ziheng beside him.
Call auntie?
Zhou Ziheng, are you serious?
The kids already call me sister, but you ask them to call me auntie?!
Without waiting for the two children to react, Yu Xiaoye quickly touched the children's round faces and said with a smile:
"Ranran Haohao, be good and call me sister."
The two little kids were about to call their sister again when Zhou Ziheng said:
"Call me Auntie."
The two little kids were confused again. What should they call her? Sister or Auntie?
She is obviously the elder sister, so why did the fierce Uncle Zhou ask them to call her aunt?
Not an aunt at all!
Although Ranran Haohao is young, he can tell the difference between his sister and his aunt.
Look at this girl with a baby face, she is obviously an older sister, right?
Just when the two little ones couldn't tell whether to call her sister or auntie, Chen Shukui said loudly:
"Calling her sister or auntie is wrong. You should call her auntie. Ranran, Haohao, call her auntie!"
Yu Xiaoye:......
The peak of life, being called aunt at the age of nineteen!
She never thought that after being with Zhou Ziheng, the way others addressed her would change.
Just now at the dinner party, someone called me Director Zhou’s wife, and now she’s being called aunt.
Well, it was a good thing that it happened in the 1970s. If it had happened in ancient times, would she have become Zhou Yu?
When Zhou Ziheng heard Chen Shukui's proposal, his smile deepened, and his tone was unusually amiable:
"Yes, call her auntie. She is Uncle Zhou's wife. You should call her auntie."
The two little guys were even more confused. How could this older sister be Uncle Zhou’s wife?
Sister, aunt, and auntie, what should they be called?
The two little heads were almost unable to move.
Liang Qin came out of the kitchen wearing an apron and smiling.
She had heard the argument outside, and when she came over, she first picked up the red envelope on the ground and said, "
"Don't worry about what to call me. Come in and drink some hot water to warm yourself up. I'm cooking. Xiaoye, don't be shy in our house. It's like your own. Director Zhou even told me that you like braised pork, so I've got some stewing in the pot."
Yu Xiaoye said embarrassedly:
"Sister Liang, don't listen to his nonsense."
As he said this, he rolled his eyes at Zhou Ziheng and said angrily:
"You're such a busybody!"
Zhou Ziheng defended himself:
"My sister-in-law asked me what I like to eat, so I casually said braised pork. Here, I brought the meat over."
Liang Qin smiled and took the meat that Zhou Ziheng brought with her:
"Okay, Shukui, you take care of things here, I'll go to the kitchen and get busy."
"Go ahead, they're not strangers, there's no need for special treatment."
Liang Qin turned and went into the kitchen.
Outside, Chen Shukui asked the two to sit on the sofa.
As for the two little guys, they had already run into the house to eat the candy secretly. They were afraid that if they were a step late, the candy in their hands would be taken away, so they ate it quickly.
Fortunately, the adults were very busy today and didn’t have time to collect their candies, so they could eat as much as they wanted. By the time their mother remembered, they had already eaten all the candies!
Yu Xiaoye chatted with Chen Shukui and Zhou Ziheng in the outer room for a while, then got up and went into the kitchen. He saw Liang Qin busy in the kitchen. The table was filled with plate after plate of dishes waiting to be cooked, including fish and meat, which looked very rich.
"Sister Liang, there's no need to cook so many dishes. We just came here from somewhere else and we're not hungry."
"I know you just came back from Wang Zhengwei's dinner party. Xiaoye, do you know that Director Zhou has changed a lot since meeting you? He used to avoid such dinners whenever possible and never bothered to attend, but now he brings you to this occasion."
Yu Xiaoye said with little interest:
"I'd rather he didn't take me."
Liang Qin smiled:
"Those guys must be making fun of you, saying all sorts of things, no matter what they are."
Obviously Liang Qin was used to it and had experienced it before.
Yu Xiaoye said:
"It's not because of these things. It's because I have nothing in common with those people. I can't get a word in what they say. They watch me like a monkey performing acrobatics. I guess they're secretly grumbling about me, thinking I'm using some seductive trick to seduce the director and take advantage of the opportunity to climb up the social ladder."
"Don't worry, at least Director Chen and I know how hard Director Zhou tried to pursue you."
Yu Xiaoye talked to Liang Qin for a while and talked about their recent work.
Liang Qin asked Yu Xiaoye if he was suitable for the job at the Propaganda Department of the General Farm.
Not adaptable.
Yu Xiaoye said he had adapted to it.
Although working in the Propaganda Department seems easy on the surface, it is actually quite stressful. The main reason is that there are so many things to learn and you cannot specialize in one thing, such as writing, painting, singing, dancing and juggling.
In short, you have to learn what the job requires.
After working in the Propaganda Department for a few years, you will definitely be talented when you come out, just like Xiaobai.
Yu Xiaoye also told Liang Qin that he had written a brand new ballet script based on the format of the White-Haired Girl script. Liang Qin was amazed:
"I've noticed before that you're a person with ideas and the courage to act. In some ways, you're very similar to Director Zhou. You both rush forward once you've set your goals. I'm really sorry that Director Zhou keeps such a close eye on you, otherwise I'd really like to transfer you to the division's art troupe."
Yu Xiaoye smiled:
"Maybe we'll have a chance to work together in the future."
"I hope so!"
Yu Xiaoye helped Liang Qin prepare the meal, and then they started eating.
He felt much more comfortable at Liang Qin's house than at the lunch party. The food on the table was all Yu Xiaoye's favorite, so he ate a lot.
Zhou Ziheng and Chen Shukui were drinking. Yu Xiaoye didn't know how to drink white wine, but he still drank a glass of cold beer.
After eating and drinking, Yu Xiaoye looked at the two little kids running around and couldn't sit still, so he simply ran over to play with them.
Compared to those meat-eating old-fashioned people at noon, these two little ones are so adorable.
Yu Xiaoye sang and drew for the two little kids, and with his mediocre skills, he completely conquered the two little guys.
Chen Shukui, who was sitting at the outer dining table, heard the singing and laughter coming from the inner room. Seeing that Yu Xiaoye was actually getting along well with the two children who disliked cats and dogs, he couldn't help but say to Zhou Ziheng:
"When are you two going to get married? I see Xiaoyu is so patient with children. You two should get married quickly and have a child."
Zhou Ziheng shook his head:
"My father-in-law has ordered that she is still young and can date, but she cannot get married and have children so early."
