Chapter 1009: Going to wish Lin Qi a Happy New Year
When Lin Qi woke up, she found herself being held tightly in Xu Hexiao's arms. Her shoulders and waist were a little painful, which showed how strong Xu Hexiao was!
Although it hurts, it's bearable.
Lin Qi did not move, but stayed quietly in Xu Hexiao's arms, listening to his strong heartbeat.
Not long after, Xu Hexiao also woke up. The two looked at each other, each reflecting in their eyes.
Neither of them spoke, and the air was inexplicably hot. Xu Hexiao's gaze slowly moved from Lin Qi's eyes to her lips, which were pink and very tempting.
A sense of danger struck her back, and Lin Qi subconsciously stepped back. However, Xu Hexiao was faster than her, and like a predatory beast, he captured her lips accurately.
Hmm——
Lin Qi was stunned for a moment. Are Xu Hexiao's lips so soft?
When Lin Qi was distracted, Xu Hexiao's tongue drove straight in, clumsily and eagerly, rushing around in Lin Qi's mouth, eagerly but without any rules.
The two inexperienced people kissed until their lips were broken and they tasted the sweet and fishy taste of their own and each other's blood. However, neither of them cared and continued to kiss passionately.
At the end of the kiss, both of them were breathing rapidly and could not ignore the changes in Xu Hexiao's body, so they had to stop.
"I'll get up and boil some water first." Lin Qi blushed and hurriedly got up from the bed.
"Okay." Xu Hexiao's voice was hoarse, and he lay in the quilt without moving.
Lin Qi started a fire, filled the pot with water, put the pot on the fire, and then fled out of the cave.
It was not until I got out of the cave that the burning gaze on my body finally disappeared.
Lin Qi took a deep breath. Xu Hexiao this morning was completely different from before, making her feel a little strange.
Is this the other side of Xu Hexiao that he has been hiding?
Hmm--
Xu Hexiao is pretty good like this.
Lin Qi went to the duck shed to light a fire for the ducks, and made the entire planting area lush and green, with abundant fruits, a scene of a bumper harvest.
Lin Qi picked some vegetables, fruits and melons. Her mood had calmed down by then. When she returned to the cave, her complexion had returned to normal.
Xu Hexiao also looked calm and composed, just like usual.
But only the two of them knew that something was different. For example, Xu Hexiao's eyes had become more unscrupulous. For example, the usually carefree Lin Qi couldn't help blushing and her heartbeating when she came into skin contact with Xu Hexiao. For example, when their eyes met, the air seemed to become hotter...
Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year. By the time Lin Qi and Xu Hexiao had breakfast and came out of the mountains, it was already noon.
Lin Qi was carrying a backpack, looking at the people at the door, frowning, "What happened?"
Luo Qingbai and others who came to pay New Year's greetings: "..."
Seeing that they were silent, Lin Qi frowned deeply, "Did something serious happen?"
Luo Qingbai and his companions held their foreheads in silence, "It's the first day of the new year, and we are here to wish you a happy new year!"
"We've been waiting for you at the door for more than half an hour. What were you doing so early in the morning?"
"What is a backpack?"
"Hey, why is your lip broken?"
"I ate too many fried meatballs and got a sore throat." Lin Qi only answered the last question.
She pushed open the gate and said, "Come in."
"Wow, you still have corn here in this cold winter!"
"Does your corn have double yolks? There are two corns on each stalk, and they are both so big and evenly sized!"
"Lin Qi, there are so many corns. Let's pick some and cook them."
"These are the team's corn seeds this year. If you want to eat them, go ask the team leader first." Lin Qi said lightly.
"Oh, so that's it. Forget it then."
"Lin Qi, your house is so cold, make a fire quickly!"
"Lin Qi, it's already noon, isn't it time for you to cook? Today is the first day of the new year, you have to keep us for dinner."
"Lin Qi probably doesn't want to do it. Why don't we make it ourselves?"
"That's a good idea. I brought rice, what did you bring?"
"I brought bacon and dried vegetables."
“I brought my grandma’s mushroom ragù.”
"I just brought candy and melon seeds."
"I brought persimmon cakes and dried fruits."
"Not many people can cook. Lin Qi, what do you have at home?"
Lin Qi: “…”
Do you treat this place as your home?
Lin Qi's family had everything they needed. She brought out all the edible food, both raw and cooked, and filled the entire table.
"Fuck, Lin Qi, you are indeed the richest person in the entire Anliang Brigade!" Luo Cheng exclaimed.
"There's pork! Chicken! Rabbit meat! Fish! Wow, there's even lamb!" Hongmei was stunned.
"I didn't come to the wrong place today!" Luo Dali licked his lips. As soon as he said this, he was pinched by his wife beside him.
San Ya rolled her eyes at her brother, "Brother, why did you say what was in your heart?"
Yuzhen's mouth twitched, "As expected, they are siblings."
Xiaomei secretly put a meatball into her mouth, and her eyes lit up instantly, "Lin Qi, your fried meatballs are delicious, even better than my mom's! Your cooking skills are not bad!"
Lin Qi glanced at her and said calmly, "This was fried by Xu Hexiao. The cooked food on the table was all prepared by Xu Hexiao."
Everyone present: "..."
Have the five black categories gained entry?
But to be honest, his craftsmanship is really not bad.
Lin Qi's family had no shortage of meat or vegetables, and Luo Cheng and others did not shy away from being polite to her. They divided the work and cooperated, vowing to make the most sumptuous meal in the entire Jiahe Commune.
The owner Lin Qi became an idler and just watched from the side.
After a while, there was another sound coming from outside her courtyard gate.
"Lin Qi, we are here to wish you a happy new year!"
It was Lowe's voice.
In addition to Lowe's, there were several other clear voices, and it was not difficult to judge that the people coming were all young.
A look of confusion flashed in Lin Qi's eyes. Why did everyone come to wish her a happy new year?
When she went home last year, her parents only took her to visit her grandmother. Isn't it that only people as old as her grandmother would come to visit?
Although Lin Qi couldn't understand why these people came to wish her a happy new year, since they were here, she couldn't chase them away.
My mother said that if you drive away people who come to pay New Year’s greetings, you are driving away blessings. The more people who come to pay New Year’s greetings, the more blessings you will have in the year.
Lin Qi recalled that when she went to visit her grandmother last year, her grandmother gave her pocket money, candy and dried fruits. So she went back to her room, found the tin box for the change, and went to the warehouse to take out the biscuits, candy and dried fruits.
Seeing her carrying a lot of bags to the door, Luo Cheng hurriedly picked up a chair and chased after her.
Arriving at the gate, Luo Cheng placed a chair at the door and motioned Lin Qi to sit down. Then he said, "Sit here and give out the money slowly. Don't give too much at once. I think all the children from the Anliang Brigade will come to wish you a happy new year today."
Lin Qi: “…”
Luo Cheng walked towards the yard after he finished speaking, muttering to himself as he walked, "I guess there will be a lot of adults soon. No, I have to ask them to cook more rice and cut more meat."
Lin Qi: “…”
"Lin Qi, I wish you good health!" Luo Wei took the lead.
"As blessed as the East Sea!"
“May there be more than enough every year!”
“Be happy every day!”
“No need to go hungry!”
"You are the best, number one in the world!"
“…”
Lin Qi's forehead was full of black lines, "Okay, come and get your things."
Lin Qi gave each of them a dime, two biscuits, two candies and a handful of dried fruits.
The day before yesterday, Xu Hexiao asked her to bring back two cloth bags of dried fruits from the mountains. She was puzzled at the time. It turned out that this guy had already thought of today's situation?
Not only dried fruits, she just opened the box and found it was full of dimes. The money was neatly arranged, and it was obvious that someone had carefully sorted it.
In addition, Xu Hexiao also prepared biscuits and candies, each in a bag. These biscuits and candies are not expensive and can be bought at the supply and marketing cooperative in the town. She doesn't like to eat them on weekdays. Xu Hexiao likes to eat sweet things, but he prefers jujube honey and sweet fruit wine. So he also prepared biscuits and candies specially for today?
Lin Qi's heart felt warm. How many things had this guy done that she didn't know about?
As soon as Luo Cheng returned to the kitchen, the people inside couldn't help but ask curiously, "How many children are here?"
"Eight. But this is just the first batch." Luo Cheng said firmly.
The others were about to say something when suddenly they heard children screaming outside.
"Wow, it's only ten cents!"
"I'm a dime a dozen too!"
"I kowtowed to my grandma today, and she only gave me one point!"
"Oh no, we forgot to kowtow to Lin Qi! No, I have to go back and kowtow!"
"I'm going too!"
“…”
There was a lot of chatter at the gate of the courtyard, and the children insisted on kowtow to Lin Qi, and Lin Qi couldn't stop them.
Everyone in the kitchen looked at each other.
San Ya: "I am only nine years old now. I want to go and wish Lin Qi a happy new year."
After saying that, San Ya ran outside.
Luo Cheng: "My son is five months old. How about I go back and bring him here?"
Luo Dali looked at his wife's belly and comforted himself, "It's okay, I can have a baby next year."
Luo Qingbai and Xiaomei, who are not married yet, said: "..."
The children took money, biscuits and candies from Lin Qi, but did not rush back. Instead, they went to the most lively place in the village first - the big banyan tree in front of the commune office.
"Xiao Ba, go and wish Lin Qi a happy new year. She gave us 10 cents!"
"Not only money, but also cookies and candy!"
"There are also dried fruits. Lots of dried fruits. Both of my pockets are full. Lin Qi's dried fruits are sweeter than sugar. They are delicious!"
"Really?" Xiao Ba swallowed hard and looked at Lowe with anticipation.
"Of course, when have I ever lied to you? Go quickly. If you go too late, Lin Qi might have finished sending them out."
As Luo Wei finished speaking, the children scattered and ran towards Lin Qi's house. As they ran, they shouted to their brothers and sisters at home, asking them to go with them.
Now, everyone in the Anliang Brigade knew that they could get money and candy by visiting Lin Qi’s house to pay New Year’s greetings.
Under the banyan tree, some half-grown children had eyes full of envy.
The deputy captain came out of the office and saw Aliang and others looking longingly in the direction of Lin Qi's house. He asked curiously, "Aliang, Dashan, everyone went to Lin Qi's house to wish her a happy new year. Why didn't you go?"
"Captain uncle, we are already big kids." Aliang said embarrassedly.
"Yes, Captain uncle, Lin Qi is just a few years older than us." Dashan also said.
The deputy captain heard this and smiled, "It's okay, anyone younger than Lin Qi can go. Go ahead, Lin Qi doesn't care about these, all of you can go!"
Aliang, Dashan and others' eyes lit up instantly. They looked at each other, and the next second they ran away, rushing out like gusts of wind.
