Chapter 375 Encourage Xiao Shiyu to participate

Author: Hometown Three Thousand Miles

This dinner is the first time that all members of the family that will be reunited eat together.

The overall atmosphere is pretty good.

After finishing the meal, Wu Xiuhong stayed to wash the dishes and put away the dishes before pulling Bai Xiaoling away.

Bai Xiaoling was a little reluctant and looked outside: "Ah, the moon is out. It's so late. Can you see clearly from the road?"

Yan Xin could only say: "Aunt Wu, it's already so late, why don't you guys stay here? There are rooms here anyway."

It's not that Wu Xiuhong never lived here when he was not around.

But the problem is that he is at home today, and Wu Xiuhong has not officially married Yan Xin's father, which is a bit embarrassing. It seems that she is not serious if she stays here.

So she still insisted on going back: "I still have chickens at home, so I have to go back and close the chicken coop to prevent weasels from grabbing the chickens."

Bai Xiaoling murmured in a low voice: "But it's already so late now, and the road is not easy to walk on. What if I fall?"

Wu Xiuhong glared at her: "With such bright moonlight, are you afraid that you can't see the road clearly?"

Today is already the fourteenth day of the eighth lunar month. The moon comes out early and is very bright. There is no need to worry about not being able to see the road clearly.

Bai Xiaoling had no choice but to go back with her mother - in fact, she really wanted to stay here for one night.

I have never lived in such a beautiful house.

Her mother, on the other hand, has lived here several times.

When they went back, they didn't go back empty-handed. Yan Xin bought them Mid-Autumn Festival gifts before he came, so he naturally brought them back now.

He also invited them to come to celebrate the festival tomorrow, which they agreed to.

In two or three months, a new family will be formed. During the holidays, we will eat together and celebrate the holidays together. This is completely acceptable.

After they left, Yan Xin watched TV with his father for a while.

Watching TV is fake, the main thing is to understand his father's attitude towards that family, whether he is satisfied or not, and how satisfied he is.

The evaluation he got from his father was still okay. Although his father was hesitant and embarrassed to say some things, it was obvious that he still had certain expectations for forming such a new family and also had some visions for the future.

That's it.

Of course, he also felt a little disappointed in his heart - had the relationship between his father and his mother for more than ten years been replaced like this?

From his mother's perspective, he still felt a little disappointed.

But as an adult, he also knows that life must go on, and you have to let go of what needs to be let go.

Compared with this loss, his father living alone here would make him feel even more uncomfortable.

That's pretty good too.

That night, I was lying on the bed alone, chatting wantonly on QQ with Ai Lili and Feng Xi, during which I also chatted a few words with Xiao Shiyu.

Xiao Shiyu will not come back to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival and will continue to stay in school.

She told Yan Xin that there was a literary evening at her school during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and she had a program to perform.

Yan Xin asked what the program was, and the answer was a dance program.

This surprised Yan Xin: "You can also dance?"

Xiao Shiyu: "I signed up for a dance class and joined a dance club in school. Now I have become the president of that dance club."

Yan Xin: "Don't you think you will become a dance artist in a few years?"

Xiao Shiyu: "I don't have that idea. I only learn dance to practice my body, and I won't put too much energy into it. But it's okay to paddle a bit at the school's art party."

Yan Xin asked again: "What kind of dance are you learning?"

Xiao Shiyu: "Classical dance."

Yan Xin didn't know whether the classical dance she was talking about was Eastern classical dance or Western classical dance. Anyway, when he saw the word "classical", he automatically thought of Eastern classical dance.

I imagined Xiao Shiyu dancing in Hanfu.

It doesn't matter whether she dances well or not. For such a beautiful girl, she will definitely look good in Hanfu.

Suddenly I thought of my own Hanfu online store and left a message:

"You have learned dance and you must be in good shape. If you are interested in making some money in the future, you can cooperate with my online store, become a Hanfu model, and take some photos wearing Hanfu."

Xiao Shiyu knew about the online store he opened with others, and she helped promote it at the beginning, so she didn't find it strange.

Reply to him: "No problem, I also bought a lot of clothes in your online store, including several sets of Hanfu. When you are free over there, you can come and take photos with me."

Yan Xin thought of something: "After the National Day, the second Hanfu Goddess Competition on our website will start again. How about you also participate? Then I will create a black box and let you enter the finals."

Xiao Shiyu is also a user of Xingguang.com. He knew about the Hanfu goddess and did not refuse. He just asked:

"After entering the finals, do I still need a black box?"

This is quite confident.

In terms of appearance, she is no worse than the previous Hanfu goddesses who entered the finals.

The conditions are there, no wonder she has such confidence.

But Yan Xin doesn't have that kind of confidence in her.

It's normal for pretty girls to be eliminated.

Because there are so many beautiful girls participating in such competitions, in the preliminary stage, everyone will have a random and charming feeling, and it is difficult to distinguish which one is more beautiful.

It is more secure to operate it in a black box.

However, Xiao Shiyu asked such a question, so he could only express quickly:

"I'm kidding you, the selection mechanism of our website is determined by this. There is no possibility of black box operation. It's all based on the votes of users. I believe you will be able to enter the finals."

The matter was settled happily.

Being able to become a model in their online store can earn a decent income, at least for a girl who is studying, it is a lot of income.

Even if Xiao Shiyu's family is not short of money, life will obviously be better with more income.

This can be regarded as helping this old classmate.

The last time Xiao Shiyu came to Yangcheng, after learning that he had a girlfriend, the relationship between the two fell into an awkward situation.

I have recovered a lot now, but I can never return to the previous state.

On the one hand, Yan Xin felt a little more relaxed, but on the other hand, he felt a little bit regretful.

——We cannot say that all men are like that, but we must also admit that there is a small number of men, no more than 99% of men, who have such problems.

No matter what, he still hopes that the friendship between the two can be maintained.

I also hope that Xiao Shiyu can live a better life.

It is best not to marry an old man who is decades older than you just for money, as you did in your previous life, and then be called a widow at a young age - although Xiao Shiyu seemed to enjoy that kind of life in her previous life, Yan Xin felt that this

not good.

He still can't figure it out. This girl's family conditions are not bad and she is so beautiful. Why is she so reluctant to marry an old man?

The chats with Ai Lili and Feng Xi were very ordinary, they just said some words of longing, occasionally mixed with some content that was not suitable for children.

This is what chats used to look like.

If there was anything different this time, it was that talking to the two of them about these things at the same time gave him the illusion of being hugging each other.

You can't do something like that in reality, but it's pretty cool to imagine.

After all, under current laws, YY is not illegal.

The next day, the father and son had a relatively simple breakfast, and Yan Xin left his father at home and went to the matchmaker's house alone on the family's old bicycle.

The bicycle was a second-hand bicycle that Yan's father bought from a bicycle repair shop in the next town for tens of dollars a few years ago. It can still be ridden, but the whole body makes a noise when it is stepped on, as if it is about to fall apart at any time.

I thought to myself: "This bicycle is too bad and too dangerous to ride. I'd better go to town and buy a new bicycle."

He rarely rides a bicycle at home, but his father often rides a bicycle to sell goods in the next town. If the bicycle suddenly falls apart on the road and something happens, it will be bad.

For safety reasons, you still have to buy a new bicycle.

This time he was going to give a gift to the matchmaker to prevent others from destroying it.

Originally, he wanted to put the gifts in the basket of the car, but after riding for a few meters, he felt that the car was bumping too hard, and he was afraid of damaging the pair of bottles.

I put it in the back seat, but I was afraid that it would bump too hard and I wouldn't know when it would fall.

Just put those things into a backpack, carry it yourself, tighten the straps, and step on it.

Although the car was bumpy, the gift was not a big problem.

When we arrived at the matchmaker's house, they were having breakfast and were surprised to see him coming.

The matchmaker is still a little worried - is she dissatisfied with the matchmaking she has done and is coming to cause trouble?

It was obviously someone who came here on their own initiative.

But when I saw a smile on Yan Xin's face, I felt relieved - he was not here to cause trouble.

When he saw Yan Xin taking out a gift from his backpack, he immediately became happy. He felt that the old Yan from Group 12 was not very good at being a good person, but his son was still quite good at being a good person.

No wonder people can do so well outside and build such a beautiful building for their family in two years.

For the sake of these gifts, their family was very enthusiastic about Yan Xin and asked him if he wanted to have a meal here.

Yan Xin said that he had already eaten.

The gift was delivered and the favor was done. We didn't stay long and chatted for more than ten minutes. I thanked the matchmaker for taking the photo and talked about how to start a family in two or three months. I also said that I would definitely invite him by then.

When the matchmaker comes over to have a meal, there will be a thank you gift.

This made the matchmaker even happier.

Ten minutes later, Yan Xin left the matchmaker's house on a loudly noisy bicycle.

Instead of going home, he went to the next town.

After crossing the river, it's the next town.

I first found a bicycle repair shop and sold the old bicycle as scrap for ten yuan. Then I found a bicycle shop in the town and selected a bicycle that was similar to the original one.

.

It's a brand name, Phoenix Bicycle.

It cost him more than three hundred yuan.

By the way, I installed the basket and bought a pump, and then I rode my new bike home.

When I passed by a fruit stall, I bought two kilograms of grapes, four or five kilograms of bananas, and a cantaloupe.

Then he put these things into the basket and went home.

When we got home, it was already past ten o'clock. Wu Xiuhong and Bai Xiaoling came over. Wu Xiuhong was busy in the kitchen, and Bai Xiaoling was not idle either, washing vegetables by the well.

Seeing Yan Xin coming back, Bai Xiaoling shouted happily: "Brother, you are back!"

This warm greeting made Yan Xin feel a little dazed, as if the girl in front of him was really his sister.

When people who have left home return home, it feels quite warm to be greeted warmly by someone with a smile.

Dad Yan doesn't have this kind of enthusiasm - maybe he is very excited about his son's return, but he never shows it. Instead, he suppresses himself and doesn't show it.

Yan Xin has always had some prejudices against Bai Xiaoling. He feels that this girl is too materialistic and only knows how to ask for things.

But at this moment, I had a different thought, thinking:

"Actually, it's good to have such a sister in the family. It can make the family more lively and create a better atmosphere."

Dad Yan is a person who is not good at words, almost like a wooden person. He does not know how to express his emotions, and is even a little timid to express his emotions.

Wu Xiuhong's situation is a little better, but not much better.

Yan Xin is not a person who stirs up tension, and even because of his presence, the two elders can't let go, making the atmosphere even more embarrassing.

At this time, Bai Xiaoling's importance became apparent.

She can make the atmosphere more harmonious and make the family more lively and vibrant.

Just like the meal last night, if Bai Xiaoling hadn't been there, the atmosphere would have been very awkward and depressing.

With her here, it would be much easier.

Thinking about it this way, Yan Xin felt that it would not be bad to have such a sister.

Even if you have to pay a little, it is worth it.

He stopped the bicycle and said with a smile: "When did you come?"

"I've been here for more than an hour," Bai Xiaoling said.

Then she noticed the bicycle Yan Xin was riding and exclaimed: "Brother, have you bought a new bicycle?"

"Yes, the bicycle at home was too old and I was afraid it would fall apart, so I sold it and bought this new one," Yan Xin said.

While they were talking, Yan's father came out of the kitchen. Seeing Yan Xin buying a new car, he couldn't help nagging:

“The car at home can still be ridden, so why buy a new one?”

"It's too old and not safe. It's better to buy a new one." Yan Xin said with a smile.

"There's no need to buy a new one, just buy a second-hand one. If you're new, you have to worry about others stealing it," Dad Yan said.

Before Yan Xin said anything, Bai Xiaoling spoke:

"Dad, don't say that. You see, he is such a talented person. If he rides a second-hand bicycle, he will not be laughed at. He is reluctant to even buy a new bicycle. Maybe people will say that our family is stingy. If word spreads,

, it’s hard to find a wife.”

Once Yan's father heard that it would affect his son's image and even affect his son's ability to marry a wife, he stopped talking about this issue.

Then he asked again: "How much did the old one cost?"

Although it was only sold for ten yuan, in order to make his father feel better, Yan Xin still went a step further and said, "It was sold for thirty yuan."

Dad Yan nodded: "The price is not bad."

That old bicycle can indeed be sold more expensively if you can negotiate the price.

However, it was only a small amount of money to negotiate, and he didn't know how long it would take. Yan Xin didn't bother to negotiate the price. When someone offered a price of ten yuan, he immediately sold it. The main thing was to save trouble.

Of course, he couldn't say that in front of his dad. He could only talk about the price at a higher price, which made his dad not feel so distressed.

However, I still muttered that if such a new bicycle was put on the street, it might attract the attention of thieves, so I would have to buy a big lock.

A larger lock will cost dozens of dollars.

Yan Xin pushed the bicycle directly into the main room, took out the fruits from the basket, put the cantaloupe and grapes in the refrigerator, broke off two bananas, kept them alone, and gave one to Bai Xiaoling.

Bai Xiaoling was washing vegetables by the well. When she saw him coming over with a banana to give her to eat, she smiled and said, "Brother, I don't have both hands free now. You can peel the banana for me."

As he spoke, he straightened his neck and pouted his mouth, obviously asking him to feed him.

Yan Xin couldn't refuse, so he could only peel the banana and put it to her mouth.

Bai Xiaoling also cooperated and opened her mouth, waiting for him to feed her.

Seeing the banana sinking into Bai Xiaoling's rosy mouth, Yan Xin suddenly thought of a crude movie he had seen in a domestic area in his previous life. It was about brothers and sisters, and there were bananas.

Suddenly my heartbeat accelerated.

His face was a little red.

I thought to myself: "I am really so dirty, how can I think about these things?"

I didn't dare to think deeply, and I didn't dare to look at it seriously. My eyes were looking elsewhere.

I am afraid that the blood in my body will flow to a bad place.

If he is discovered, he will really be dead, and he will never go home again in this life.

Bai Xiaoling didn't feel anything unusual. Under his feeding, she ate all the bananas, then smiled sweetly and said, "Thank you, brother, you are so good to me!"

Yan Xin forced a smile: "Well, as a family, this is what we should do."

Feeling that he was too dirty before, he was too embarrassed to stay here, so he said: "I have been riding a bicycle for so long, and I am a little tired. I will go back to my room to rest first, and I will not accompany you first."

"Brother, go ahead and I'll call you when you're eating," Bai Xiaoling said.

Yan Xin hurried upstairs and returned to his bedroom.

Without others, the scene of Bai Xiaoling eating bananas that I just saw reappeared in my mind, and I felt a little confused:

"What the hell am I thinking?"

"She will be my sister from now on!"

"What an animal!"

I reflected and blamed myself in the room for more than ten minutes before my mood stabilized and I thought to myself:

"I shouldn't have watched that kind of movie in my last life. It poisoned a good young man like me!"

However, until lunch time, he did not dare to look at Bai Xiaoling, for fear that he would have some bad thoughts if he was not careful.

At the same time, he also discovered another thing - this cheap sister seemed to be pretty, and she seemed to be well developed.

Then he felt even dirtier.
