That 1 his waist protruded

I thought this would be the second Spring Festival I spent alone, but I didn't expect that it would turn out to be the first Spring Festival I spent with Ayu and Zhang Qiushu.

However, on New Year's Eve, Ayu had to work half a day, so Zhang Qiushu and I were left at home to sleep until we woke up naturally.

I chatted with Yan Chaoling too late last night,

Zhang Qiushu woke up earlier than me, and he was heating breakfast when I got up.

"Are you up? Have you eaten?"

"Eat." I leaned over, breakfast is buns and porridge.This is one of several possible breakfast combinations.

The steamed buns were steamed yesterday, and they should be eaten hot in the pan.The porridge was cooked in the morning and was still warm in the pot.Zhang Qiushu asked me how many buns I would like to eat, and then skillfully put the buns on the steaming curtain and added water to the pot.

I scratch my head and sit back at the table, out of the way of the kitchen.But Zhang Qiushu called me: "Come here and serve the porridge yourself."

When I left with two bowls of porridge, Zhang Qiushu suddenly said, "I know you don't like me."

I paused, and took the porridge back first, before answering, "It's not that unpleasant."

Zhang Qiushu laughed at himself: "Is it because of Ah Yu's face?"

"Not all. I think you are not bad as a person."

Zhang Qiushu glanced at me, I think this look is very similar to Ayu. "Let's eat."

I took out my phone, and replied to the message Yan Chaoling sent while eating breakfast.He didn't sleep in late, he woke up early in the morning and wanted to tell me what he did today.

When I got up in the morning, I took my younger brothers and sisters to paste the Spring Festival couplets, and then went into the kitchen to help.He was pushed out to watch his younger brothers and sisters because they were too troublesome.

The latest news was a video 5 minutes ago.

Yan Chaoling said: "Fireworks and firecrackers have not been banned in my house, so I brought my two little ones out to play."

In the picture are two tightly wrapped children.One was older, thirteen or fourteen years old, and the other was younger, who seemed to have just started primary school.

I made the video call.

Yan Chaoling picked it up quickly, because he was walking, so the screen was a little shaken.With the erratic white breath and silly smile, it was a crit in my heart.

I joked, "I'll make food and broadcasts for you."

Yan Chaoling nodded, "Okay."

The background sound on his side is the sound of firecrackers and the laughing chirping of two children.

This phone conversation lasted until Ayu came home from get off work in the afternoon.I also greeted Yan Chaoling's younger siblings via video call.

I was obviously not at my home, so I told Yan Chaoling about Ayu and Zhang Qiushu, and showed him Ayu's study.The size of this study really surprised me.It covers a wide range of fields and is rich in content.Although it is not a collectible level, it is still unimaginable for someone to own such a room of books in this era.

Especially when I knew that this study was actually prepared by Zhang Qiushu alone after Ayu left, the feeling was indescribable in words.

Zhang Qiushu just looked at me helplessly and said, "I think you may have made up something very exaggerated."

When I was on the phone with Yan Chaoling, Zhang Qiushu quietly avoided me, pretending that he didn't exist.I know what he means—to avoid possible misunderstandings, and eagerly hope that I can be with Yan Chaoling.

It's kind of interesting to think about him.

When Ayu comes back, Yan Chaoling will also take his younger siblings home.This fool's hand was red and stiff from the cold, so he held the phone in one hand and put it in his pocket to keep warm.

I said several times not to cut the voice, you put your hands in your pockets.He disagreed and insisted on looking at me.

Well, in fact, I was also reluctant, so I didn't insist.

After hanging up the phone, I checked the weather forecast on his side, and it was minus 22 degrees.

"Fool."

I went to the kitchen to help Ayu, but finally came out belching like dog food, only to find that my phone was vibrating happily by itself.

The dormitory group has started chatting with each other about Happy New Year. I scrolled through more than 100 posts and looked down, starting with Qian Yi sharing what is delicious in my kitchen, followed by Tang Hongxi complaining about noisy children.Yan Chaoling recorded a segment of brother and sister competing in karaoke with their mobile phones.Then I saw them taking turns to hit me and ask me what was going on.

Compared with their side, my place is simply deserted, and there is no "new year flavor".But compared to the bad breakup I experienced last year, it's like heaven and earth.

On days like New Year's Eve, it's not easy for me to explain to them what's going on at home, so I can only go back to the kitchen and pat on the delicious food prepared by Ayu and send it to them.

Yan Chaoling said: "This pot of meat is quite authentic, and there are blood sausages? People from the Northeast?"

Qian Yi also said: "I heard that the three eastern provinces think their province's pot-packed meat is the most authentic?"

I answered Yan Chaoling's question: "That's right, from the Northeast."

Qian Yi suddenly remembered: "Boss, you should also be able to make pot-packed meat, right? Do you want to make it for us later?"

Yan Chaoling agreed, "Okay. I'll let Xiaoyi judge who cooks delicious food later."

I rubbed my chin, why did I feel that Yan Chaoling wanted to compete with Ayu?

To my surprise, Tang Hongxi asked me privately at this time: "How are you getting along with the boss recently?"

This question came suddenly, unexpectedly, and unexpectedly.If he had asked me face to face, I would have blushed, avoided his eyes, scratched my head and said, "That's it." But now I've had a lot of time to organize my words—and find that I still don't know how to respond.

Probably because I was silent for too long, Tang Hongxi added another sentence: "Is it hard to say, or is it embarrassing to say?"

I took a deep breath, wondering if I should thank him for his understanding.Before I had time to answer, Zhang Qiushu came to ask me to eat.

He also explained by the way: "This meal is eaten at two o'clock in the afternoon, and the New Year's Eve dinner at night is eaten after ten o'clock."

Ayu prepared sumptuously. He stewed chicken, steamed fish, boiled soup, cut a piece of skin jelly, fried snow-covered bean paste, and slipped a piece of liver.

Ayu smiled: "I just do whatever I want, I don't know if it suits your taste."

I raised my hand to make an oath, "I promise, I'm not picky eaters."

I just thought it was too much for three people.

I later learned that this meal can last all afternoon.

A meal can be eaten quickly without alcohol.However, this meal was accompanied by other dinner items—Ayu came over with his laptop in his arms and started playing a horror movie, pulling me and Zhang Qiushu to watch it together.So much so that this meal took the length of a horror movie.

——The problem is that he still feeds Zhang Qiushu from time to time while watching horror movies.People work!

After choking on this dog food, horror movies are no longer scary.

At this time, I suddenly remembered: I haven't responded to Tang Hongxi's message yet.
