It's hard to be an idol

Chapter 463 New Year's Trivia

The second day after Xu Lai and Lin Yuner came back was New Year’s Eve, which was a wonderful period. It’s just that in the big city of Rongcheng, the flavor of the New Year is not as strong as in Rongzhou. After all, it is committed to becoming an international metropolis. The advertising LED screens in the city are broadcasting the good news of wishing the New Year, but compared to Rongzhou, a slightly smaller city, the flavor of the New Year is much weaker.

In fact, the current "year taste" is getting weaker and weaker in big cities, and Rongcheng is also walking on this road, but this is not a problem for Xu Lai and his family. After all, their New Year is not just here in Rongcheng. pass by.

Of course, family days like New Year's Eve must still be spent in Rongcheng, but if you want to go out to pay New Year's greetings or something, you still have to go out, or even rush to Rongzhou.

In the early morning of New Year's Eve, Xu Lai was pulled out of the bed by Xu's mother, and Lin Yun'er was also called up by the way, hoping that the young couple could have a delicious breakfast, even though they were exhausted from traveling and traveling the day before, But for those who celebrate the Chinese New Year, every meal must be eaten well.

What's more, the glutinous rice balls made by Xu's mother at home are only eaten two or three times a year. If Xu Lai and the others don't sell this face, they can't justify it.

This is the first New Year's Eve that Lin Yuner has spent with Xu Lai's family. She is not as reserved as before, but she is also full of curiosity about the Xu family's celebrations.

Moreover, it was also the first time for her to celebrate the Chinese New Year seriously in mainland China.

When filming before, I also celebrated the Spring Festival in mainland China, but the celebration of the production team was far from the way of my family, so Lin Yuner was curious about everything about the Spring Festival.However, the Spring Festival in South Korea and the Spring Festival in mainland China have the same origin. Although there have been regional changes after being introduced to South Korea, they are still somewhat similar in some respects, such as the reunion dinner on New Year’s Eve.

The reunion dinner usually takes place in the evening, and it's only the morning now. Everyone has no work during the holidays, so they naturally have some leisure time, but Xu Lai was found a job by Xu's father.

"Xu Lai, come and post some couplets with me!" Xu's father took a couplet from the back room, waved to the four people who were chatting, and then called Xu Lai out.

"Okay." Xu Lai nodded without evading anything, and got up directly to post couplets with Xu's father. Without Xu Lai's presence beside Lin Yuner, her sense of security was a little bit lost, but looking at Xu Lai on the opposite side, Seeing the kindness and gentleness on the faces of her mother and Xu Xia, her lost sense of security returned, and even increased a lot.

Xu Lai walked outside the door with Xu's father, and the two of them sorted out the couplets in their hands, and then put the paste needed to paste the couplets on the side, and began to clean up the couplets pasted last year.

Although he has returned to the big cities, Father Xu is still very down-to-earth in pasting Spring Festival couplets. He did not use so-called glue or double-sided tape, but used traditional paste for pasting, so when tearing up the Spring Festival couplets last year Still went well, leaving no residue.

"You were not home when you posted Spring Festival couplets last year. Think about it carefully. The last time you posted Spring Festival couplets was three years ago, at the beginning of 14. Not long after that, you dropped out of school and went to South Korea to become a trainee. When I came back the next year, I didn’t even stay for two days, and I didn’t even wait for you to post the Spring Festival couplets. Then this year, it happened that you could post the Spring Festival couplets when you came back.” Xu’s father suddenly started talking about what happened before, “Last When I posted Spring Festival couplets once, I thought you were just a child, not grown up yet. This time I posted Spring Festival couplets...you are already married, so...time flies so fast."

Father Xu shook his head, then smiled and sighed.

He and Xu's mother have always thought that it would be good for Xu Lai to spend his life in an ordinary and stable way, there is no need to be famous or successful, just plain and happy.

I also thought about asking Xu Lai to go to the postgraduate entrance examination after graduating from university, get married after working for a year or two before entering the postgraduate entrance examination, and get married after working for one year after entering the postgraduate entrance examination. The most expected marriage age for him is 24-26 years old. This was their original plan, and of course this was their own ideal state, but everything still had to depend on Xu Lai's own thoughts.

Sometimes there is a gap between reality and expectations, but this gap does not seem to be a bad thing.

Xu's father and Xu's mother never thought that Xu Lai would become famous and stand out, but Xu Lai made it by accident with his own hard work and talent, and they thought that Xu Lai might get married after becoming a star. He will have nothing to do with him for several years. After all, career is the most important thing. They are about to understand that Xu Lai can't do what they expect, or even look completely opposite to what they expected.

But suddenly one day, Xu Lai told them that he had someone he liked, and then he took her home and introduced her to them not long after, even a few months later, when the New Year was approaching, before he had yet On my 23rd birthday, I married this girl.

The mainland talks about starting a family and starting a business, but there are also people who first start a business and then start a family. In Xu Lai's case, they thought they would start a business first and ignore their own feelings for the time being. They didn't expect him to be far faster than Xu's father and Xu's mother thought, and even one step ahead. fulfilled their expectations.

All I can say about this is...

Xu Lai was indeed deeply influenced by his parents.

However, the influence his parents have on him is limited to this - don't hesitate to meet someone you like and think is suitable, take her home and introduce her to your parents, thinking about marrying her forever.

This is a positive effect.

"I can only say... I grew up quickly in the past three years. I learned a lot in South Korea that I couldn't learn in school, and I gradually became an adult." Xu Lai also lamented Xu's father. Even with a smile, he knew what Father Xu was lamenting.

According to his previous life, he should still be a young eagle living under the wings of his parents throughout his age, but now he has become the backbone of the entire family. On the surface, Xu's father and Xu's mother are still making choices and decisions for the family. But secretly, the entire family's voice is leaning on Xu Lai's side.Whenever something big happens at home, Xu's father and Xu's mother will come to ask for his opinion, instead of treating him as a child like before, but as a real adult who can take on family responsibilities.

Now even more, Xu Lai is about to start his own family. The big boy in the past has quietly grown into an adult, but the speed is too fast, that is, the two or three years when he disappeared from the sight of his parents. Xu's father also felt dumbfounded. There is only sigh.

Xu's father, as someone who has experienced it, of course knows what the price of growing up is. He and Xu's mother also knew some sporadic things when they got to know Xu Lai, but by the time they knew, those things had already passed, so they could only keep it in their hearts. There is nothing else he can do to fight for Xu Lai who suffered injustice, and this is what he lamented.

Obviously Xu Lai should still be at the age to look for his parents in case of trouble, but he started to protect his family. He is obviously not that old, but he feels that he has entered the life of retirement.Sometimes he also feels that he is still young and should not be comfortable like this, but then he thinks that he is not young anymore, so the so-called "ambition" is buried.

Now, it's good to be taken care of by promising children for the elderly, and don't cause trouble for them anymore.

Coincidentally, Xu's mother and Xu's father have very similar ideas.

"I knew you were an adult a long time ago... In the end, I have to suffer for you." Father Xu sighed and sighed, "I knew it when you took the money to go back to Rongcheng, and I knew you encountered difficulties later. I know it better when I’m in a family. Other people’s children have to tell the family twice when they are suffering or being bullied, to be pitiful and to ask for comfort, and you can carry everything without saying a word. If it weren’t for your sister When you find out, tell us that your mother and I may have to be kept secret for a long time."

"What's there to say? I'm not the kid I used to be. I would sit and cry for a long time if I was robbed of candy." Xu Lai smiled and shook his head lightly.

He never thought of going home to ask his parents for comfort and confide his grievances. He just said that Xu's father and Xu's mother would not be able to help, but would only add to their troubles, so he didn't open his mouth.Moreover, he was the one who insisted on going to South Korea to make his debut as a trainee. Now that he didn't succeed, he went back to complain when he was wronged. He himself felt blush.

In his mind, if he wanted to go back to Xu's father and Xu's mother, at least he had to wait for him to make some achievements, that is, when he earned money and went home later, he felt that he had "returned to his hometown" at that time.

"Back then it was your sister who loved to bully you..."

"But you don't beat her, she often bullies me..." Speaking of being bullied by Xu Xia when he was a child, he had something to say, if it wasn't for being ignorant when he was a child, Xu Xia was very kind to his younger brother when he grew up. He was afraid that he was already out of balance.

"I must have beaten you, have you forgotten?"

“那我就不知道了，可能那时候不记事没记住，要不爸你待会儿揍我姐一顿吧？你看她都什么年纪了还不谈恋爱，我这都结婚了，你Don't you think she's not up to snuff?" Xu Lai was pushing Xu's father on the sidelines, he knew that after Xu Xia's job became stable, Xu's father and Xu's mother were thinking about Xu Xia's future, encouraging her to fall in love freely, and even Moved the idea of ​​letting her go on a blind date.

"You don't come here! It's New Year's Eve, are you still looking for trouble?" Father Xu laughed when he heard Xu Lai say this, he knew Xu Lai was joking.

As for Xu Xia's relationship problem, Xu's father and Xu's mother were really worried before. After all, in the tradition of their generation, girls still have to rely on someone. After all, parents and brothers can't help much...

But it's different now, because of Xu Lai's success, they don't worry about Xu Xia anymore, besides, Xu Lai and Lin Yun'er have already obtained a certificate here, and the wedding will be held soon, even if they are urging their children, they are also urging Xu Lai and the two of them , and won't bother Xu Xia.

After all, what I was worried about at the beginning was that Xu Xia, a girl, would have a hard time without someone to rely on. But it is different now. Xu Xia lacks nothing. It can even be said that she is in the column with good conditions. She can slowly pick the basics alone. That's no problem.

It's not even a big deal not to pick, but it's for Xu Lai, but for Xu's father and Xu's mother, it's not so good.

You can marry later, but you still have to marry.

……

"You and Yun'er's wedding ceremony is a treat. Before you went to work, Yun'er was so busy running around." Father Xu specially instructed Xu Lai when he put up the banner.

"I know." Xu Lai nodded in agreement with Father Xu's teachings, and he was right, so naturally he had nothing to refute.

"Also, after you two get married... you shouldn't be too anxious to go to work, right? You have to have some time to rest after working so long, right?" Xu's father suddenly asked about Xu Lai and Lin Yuner's work.

"It should be stopped for a while, so dad, what do you want to say?" Xu Lai raised his eyebrows, as if he had guessed.

"What I mean is, take advantage of this period of marriage to take a good rest and recuperate Yoona's health. I think she is too thin..."

"Uh..." Xu Lai was now sure that he had guessed what Father Xu wanted to say.

"Your mother and I are basically in a semi-retired state now. We have a lot of time to go out and chat with old men and women. You know what old men and women talk about, right? They talk about their children and descendants. . Your sister, me and your mother can't wait for each other, so son! You and Yoona will work hard from now on?"

"Dad... you..." Although Xu Lai guessed what Father Xu wanted to say, he was a little confused when he heard him really say it.

To be honest, he planned to get married, but to be a father...he wasn't ready yet.

"Don't think your dad is too talkative. Your mom will definitely say the same thing."

"It's too early." Xu Lai shook his head lightly.

After all, he is only less than 23 years old, and the wedding has not yet been held. Is he about to be induced now?
"It's better earlier! You can't just think about yourself, Yun'er is going to be 27 years old this year, and if she delays for a few more years, she might become an elderly mother." Father Xu's words are quite reasonable.

"Then don't just look at me! You still have to ask your daughter-in-law what she thinks, I can't live alone..."

It's New Year's Eve, Xu Lai's mood suddenly became chaotic.

"Oh, let's talk about this matter later...we'll talk about it after the wedding." Xu Lai sighed, feeling like a mess in his heart.

"All right, all right, anyway, probably the best time is these two years, you have to think about it carefully." Father Xu added a sentence and didn't mention it again.

Xu Lai really didn't expect that "birth" would happen to him, but after thinking about it carefully, Xu's father's words were indeed reasonable, and maybe he had to ask Lin Yuner for his opinion. Can't decide.

……

Establish a career and start a family, pass on the family lineage...

Xu Lai suddenly felt that there would be no less troubles to face after getting married.
