fall in love in winter

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the snow stopped, and the sun, which had disappeared for a few days, broke through the clouds and scattered the not-so-warm sunshine down.

Wearing new clothes, Dong Yin glanced out of the window and said softly, "I don't know if Louis XVI will melt today."

"What Louis XVI?" Xie Mingjun asked.

Dong Yin buttoned up the coat, Xie Mingjun took a look at the bedside, recalled it, and asked, "Is the snowman named Louis XVI?"

Dong Yin nodded.

"Why is it called Louis XVI?"

Dong Yin said: "I just suddenly remembered a song I heard before, the lyrics are like this, Louis Louis Louis XVI."

Xie Mingjun has never heard of it before, "An old song?"

Dong Yin hummed, Xie Mingjun thought for a while, then turned to see Dong Yin was still looking at her, "Wait a minute, I'll think about what song this is."

"That's how it was sung, Louie Louie~Louis Louie~ I sang it on DVDs when I was a child, it's okay if I don't remember..." Dong Yin said, "By the way, why don't you praise me for singing well?"

Waking up in the morning, Xu Shi was still immersed in the depressive atmosphere of the previous two days. There was not much smile on their faces, and they were a little serious.

Now Xie Mingjun let out a snort, originally she could remember some songs, but Dongyin couldn't remember anything when she sang, she said: "Well, what do you think of singing by yourself, Dongyin?"

"I think it sounds pretty good." Dong Yin evaluated herself, and she said confidently: "Which one who learns translation doesn't sing well? When I was young, my grandma said that I could sing very well, and that I could be a singer, hehe. "

"When we were young, we participated in singing and dancing and won awards."

"What song is it?"

"Little white boat." Dong Yin said, "There was also dancing. I remember when I was in the fourth grade of elementary school. I still had male companions at that time."

While chatting, the two went downstairs and smelled the aroma when they walked halfway. The big white table below was full of dishes, all of which were home-cooked.

Aunt Lin was setting the chopsticks and saw them beckoning, "Wash your face and brush your teeth, come here quickly, and pay respects later."

Dongyin thought that it should be ancestor worship, and their hometown also has this custom. On the first day of the new year, they would set off firecrackers and light incense to honor their ancestors.

They sat downstairs for a while, and then Uncle Wu called them to the back room. The villa is big, with two courtyards at the front and back.

Dongyin was a little startled at the back, there were many god statues in this room, the one in the middle seemed to be Guan Erye, and beside it were Kuixing and Bodhisattva.

Xie Mingjun said: "Businessmen believe in this."

She knelt down and Dongyin knelt down, and Mr. Xie lit candles and incense next to her, and there was a small pot next to her burning incense paper. After Dongyin worshiped one by one, she also begged, and thought of a wish in her heart.

After their juniors had finished praying, the elders did. Mr. Xie added wine to the small wine glass in front of the statue, and then Aunt Lin put away the rice enshrined in the statue and asked them to have a bite each.

"Happy New Year, good luck, successful studies, good fortune!" After the two of them had finished eating, Aunt Lin said, "I will ask my husband for red envelopes later. I saw that he made some big bags early today."

"Okay, thank you, Aunt Lin." Dong Yin put down her chopsticks.

Xie Mingjun said: "This is the custom in our hometown, and we can have dinner when my dad comes out."

"It feels similar to our hometown, that is, we wait for the year to pass, and we eat like this when we meet a fifteenth day, because we believe in the river god, and we must go to the river to worship during the Chinese New Year, and in July and a half, and then wait for the river god to give us a gift. After eating, we will be protected by the river god."

"The customs in your place are similar to those of my grandmother's." Mr. Xie came out from inside, he took a bite of his meal with a smile, and several of them walked into the restaurant.

Today everyone in the villa sits down together, there are eight people in total, the men all drink, and the younger generation, the women drink some hot milk if they don’t drink alcohol.

Dong Yin stood up with the milk and began to wish everyone New Year's greetings, first to Mr. Xie, Mr. Xie took out a red envelope with a smile, and said, "Happy New Year to you too, come, New Year's money."

"Thank you uncle." Dong Yin drank the milk, went to receive the red envelopes with both hands, and took them to give New Year greetings to other aunts and uncles. She also received several red envelopes, and Xie Mingjun pulled her, "Okay, you are not Persuade people to drink, drink milk one by one, and skip meals."

"That's right." Dong Yin cupped her hands, she received a stack of red envelopes, each one was so exciting to touch, she earned it!

Xie Mingjun said: "Why don't you give me New Year's greetings?"

"Ah? New Year's greetings to you, will you give me money? Isn't it... a red envelope?" Dongyin asked in a low voice.

She made everyone laugh, and they all asked Xie Mingjun if he had prepared any money.Dong Yin bowed to Mr. Xie Ming and said, "Happy New Year Mr. Xie Ming, Gong Xi Fa Cai, all wishes come true!"

Xie Mingjun touched a red envelope for her, and Dongyin weighed it. She didn't sit down and continued, "Mr. Xie, Happy New Year! I wish you smooth work and promotion along the way! Good luck comes again and again!"

Xie Mingjun frowned.

Dong Yin said: "You have dual identities, you are still my boss!"

"...Hiss, you are quite eloquent." Xie Mingjun took out another red envelope and gave it to her, "You are quite good at making money."

"Thank you for the compliment, I will definitely make good money for the company!" Dong Yin bowed while holding the red envelope.

Aunt Lin teased her, "The chairman is still sitting there, isn't he better than Mr. Xie?"

Dong Yin said softly: "Thank you, Director and Big Boss, one red envelope is worth several, I can't be greedy."

Mr. Xie laughed loudly, "Hahaha, you're quite good at talking, come on, come on, you ask for another one, and I'll give you another red envelope."

"Congratulations to the director for ascending to the top of the world and becoming the richest man in the world! The Jundi brand spreads all over the world!"

Thus, Dongyin received another big red envelope.

She was grinning.

After a happy meal, Dongyin's small pocket was almost full of red envelopes, so Xie Mingjun reached out to help and said, "I'll help you."

"No, don't expose your wealth!" Dongyin couldn't fit her top pocket, and then stuffed her trousers pocket, so that her whole body was full of red envelopes.

She felt like a rich woman.

Everyone was talking and laughing, and the haze of the previous two days was swept away.

Dong Yin helped Aunt Lin and the others clean up the dishes, and Xie Mingjun mopped the floor, then got out the mopping robot and let it wander around the restaurant by itself.

After finishing work, the neighbors came to pay New Year's greetings. There were many people coming and going, some with children. Mr. Xie always brought out snacks to treat them, and stuffed candies in handfuls, almost tearing the children's hats.

Dongyin was quite puzzled, their old family members were getting less and less, and they broke up if they didn't contact each other for a year. She didn't attend the marriage of her playmates when she was a child, and she didn't know about it until they gave birth to their second child.

Not to mention New Year's Eve, it's not bad if someone is willing to go back to their hometown now, I didn't expect the New Year's Eve in the city to be so lively.

Aunt Lin said: "Mr. has a gentle temper. Usually, if there is something wrong at home, Mr. will go to help. He is warm-hearted and has a good relationship with the neighbors."

Mr. Xie called the two of them and said that he would take them out to pay New Year's greetings.

"Shall I go too?" Dongyin asked in a low voice, she was afraid and looking forward to it, she had been running around with her to pay New Year's greetings when she was a child.

Xie Mingjun nodded, "Let's go."

The two of them followed Mr. Xie to pay New Year's greetings nearby. Xie's house was in the center, and the villa area was quite large. Walking around, they could meet many people.

They are all called aunt and uncle, and they all say happy new year.

The neighbors around have heard about what happened in the past two days, and have gossiped about it in private. Seeing Mr. Xie and the two little girls, they asked curiously: "Who is this little girl, she is as good-looking as your Mingjun."

Mr. Xie said with a smile, "These two are little girls from my family."

Seeing him laughing so happily, no matter how much he tried to gossip, he couldn't gossip anymore. The neighbors thought that it was the Zou family who was not a good person. Relying on their friendship for so many years, they bullied the Xie family's relatives and messed up the Xie family's New Year's Eve dinner.

Mr. Xie took their families to celebrate the New Year, and there are a few more behind. Mr. Xie asked: "Are you two tired? If you are tired, go back and play first."

"Not tired." Dong Yin squeezed a handful of candy in her hand, the people here are very enthusiastic, at her age, she can still receive snacks.

Mr. Xie smiled, and went to the next few houses to pay New Year's greetings.

Dongyin is wearing a red coat, double-breasted, hem to the calf, with a black sweater skirt inside, and a pair of small boots, very elegant, she smiles with bright eyes, anyone who looks at her thinks she is cute.

Along the way, many people praised that this little girl is beautiful, this little girl is cute, she can talk, she must be very smart in reading, come and eat sweets.It's quite a face to take her out. Many people say that she is more like Mr. Xie's daughter, and her cheerful personality is exactly the same as Mr. Xie's.

It was noon after the New Year's greetings, someone called Mr. Xie to play mahjong, Dong Yin and Xie Mingjun walked back by themselves.

Dong Yin popped a lollipop into her mouth.

Xie Mingjun turned his head to look at her for a few more seconds, and Dongyin touched it from his pocket. The candy was quite delicious, full of milk flavor.

As soon as she was about to take it, Xie Mingjun said, "I want to take a picture of you."

"Ok?"

Dong Yin stopped her movements, pinched and looked at her.

She wears a plain ring on her little finger. She is pinching a lollipop. She doesn't know where Xie Mingjun is looking. She thinks that she looks beautiful eating a lollipop, so she sticks out her tongue and licks the lollipop. lollipop.

sweet.

There are a lot of people coming and going on the road. The children are jumping and having snowball fights on the road after celebrating the new year. You throw me a snowball, and I throw you a snowball. It’s so joyful.

The two of them were really embarrassed to let the children see their kiss, so they secretly hid behind the pine tree to kiss. The pine tree is still green in winter, with layers of snow falling on it, which became a natural barrier.

Xie Mingjun ate her mouth, picked the tip of her tongue with his tongue, and tasted the sweetness in her mouth, which made Dongyin unable to breathe well, and avoided her for two times.

Lips parted, Dongyin gasped, she put the lollipop to Xie Mingjun's lips, Xie Mingjun licked it, and then went to kiss her.This time the kiss was gentle, licking the line of her lips, teasing her lips, the small one was licked back and forth by her, Dong Yin opened her lips, inviting her in.

The two kissed for a long time, their lips were red.

They stayed at Xie's house until the third year of junior high school. In the third year of junior high school, Chu Ning'an and the others came to pay New Year's greetings. They played together for a day, and Chu Ning'an invited them to his home to play.

Mr. Xie sent them to the door, looking at them very reluctantly, saying that the house was deserted without guests, and kept telling them to come back early.

In the past two days, Mr. Xie Mingjun didn't take the initiative to say a word to Mr. Xie. She didn't answer a word as if she didn't hear it, and drove away with both hands on the steering wheel.Dong Yin sat beside her, looked out the window, and saw Mr. Xie standing alone in the snow.

"Your father, alone..."

"Don't pay attention to him, this house is never short of people."

Dong Yin looked in the rearview mirror, the distance was getting farther and farther away, but the figure of Mr. Xie had not changed. He was standing in the snow, his back was lonely, he was a very lonely father.In the past few days, Mr. Xie has been very enthusiastic, considerate of everything, and treated her very well.

Dong Yin pursed her lips, "Xie Mingjun, please make up with your father."

Xie Mingjun didn't return, Dongyin looked in the rearview mirror again, and left Xie's house completely, she said softly: "...just think it's for me."

·

the other side.

Several members of the Zou family have been waiting for a call from Mr. Xie for several days, but nothing happened.In any case, he lost so much face at the Zou family, and suffered such grievances as a guest, Mr. Xie should give him a call, not an apology, but a few words of relief. of.

However, Mr. Xie hung up several calls from the intermediary to persuade him, and he did not reply to his WeChat messages. What's going on between him and his wife.

Everyone loves being Sherlock Holmes very much, and even thinks that they have the potential to be Sherlock Holmes. If they hear the slightest sign of trouble, they will come to catch it.

Wildly guessing whether Mother Zou had cheated on her, guessing whether the couple had done something unscrupulous.

Look, Mr. Xie is such a good person, with such a good temper, he refuses to talk to this family anymore. There must be ghosts in their family.

"What's the origin of that Dongyin?" Zou's father had never experienced such a shame and humiliation in his life, and he couldn't figure out what kind of courage Dongyin had to challenge them so boldly.

Zou Yuxi said: "No background, she is an abandoned baby."

Thinking of his mother when he said this, he glanced over and found that her mother was pressing the remote control hard.

Zou Yuxi feels uncomfortable. Now people always ask him if he has a younger sister. He is really annoyed, "What about Uncle Xie?"

Dad Zou said: "Uncle Xie has changed a bit in the past two years. Without my support in the early years, without my support for him to get a loan for him, how could he have come to this day? He dared to treat me with that attitude. It's really amazing. His face!"

Zou Yuxi said worriedly: "Then will he really like Dongyin?"

Zou Yuncheng glanced at Zou Yuxi. Although he didn't want to say it, he still had to remind this stupid son, "Uncle Xie may not like you, but he will definitely not agree with Mr. Ming and that woman. He's tongue-in-cheek, but his doting on Mr. Ming is real."

As he spoke, he sighed again, "In the future, there will be fewer Internet celebrities, and it would be embarrassing to say it out. How much money can you make? You can improve your image for me."

"I can earn a lot." Zou Yuxi defended, "I can earn hundreds of thousands a day. Didn't I ask you to spend money for several years in college?"

"Hundreds of thousands? Do you know how much the Xie family earns in a day? How much is the turnover in a day? As long as you coax Mr. Ming well, your Uncle Xie can't give you all of the Xie family. It's impossible for him to give you all of Xie's family with just this one daughter. A company should be handed over to a woman? You use your brain?"

"Then you still supported me playing the Internet at the earliest?" Zou Yuxi said dissatisfiedly. Now that he has reached the peak of his career, he was actually asked to quit. Without this one million monthly salary, he felt uncomfortable.

Father Zou gave him a cold look. He was the first to play on the Internet. Wasn’t that Xie Mingjun’s game? As the Internet is well developed, all netizens know that they are a couple, which is good for the Zou family and can reduce many opponents.

Don't look at Xie Mingjun's bad temper and hard service, on this condition, how many people are rushing to miss her fat meat, and they have no chance to be her dog.

It’s just that this calculation is hidden in my heart, and I can’t say it out. On the surface, I cater to each other. Yes, let them think about their children’s affairs and respect their wishes. As long as they are happy, it doesn’t matter if we are tired or hard.

But they all have a reputation in their hearts and a standard in their hearts. They don't want to find a good family, at least they don't want to help the poor.

The Zou family has seen Mr. Xie Mingjun with such good conditions, and there is still a chance to get it, but they have to hold on tightly. He believes that Mr. Xie may not be as deep as he thought, but he definitely doesn't like Dongyin's conditions.

"The Internet can do it anytime. Stop now and settle the matter between you and Mr. Ming. If you can't solve it, pick it up again. I don't believe it. What ability does she have? A brat dares to slander people like that. "Papa Zou got drunk and said, "Call her school."

"...That might be a bit difficult." Zou Yuxi said.

"What do you mean? Now colleges and universities don't care about the quality of students. Isn't she a postgraduate? Go to her research institute. Which school is it? I'll look for a relationship..."

"Dad, it's just that the Baoyan school is very difficult to deal with. She majored in diplomacy. Now the supervisor seems to be the spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. I don't know, but it's very powerful... Can you get in touch?"

"...What? No, what's her condition, how did she find such a person as a mentor?" Father Zou couldn't understand.

"The tutor is looking for her..." Zou Yuxi really didn't want to mention this matter. He didn't think it was anything serious at first, but his father was surprised and annoyed him. He said: "The third teacher contacted her, It seems that she has passed some CATTI exams, and she took several language departments in a row, and she was shocked by the teacher, and then she was attracted by others." He was a little jealous, "Isn't it just a diplomacy department, such an unpopular major, I guess She was the one who had nothing to look for. She may not be able to read it out, how could she have a future with such low self-esteem, no matter what line of work she is in, she must have connections."

Father Zou was angry, thinking about the previous events, "No, then you were helping Dongyin to speak and giving her rhythm on the Internet, why didn't you trample her to death and let her go to graduate school?"

Zou Yuxi pursed his lower lip. He was afraid that his father would call him stupid, so he didn't say that he was caught by Dongyin, and said: "At that time, I was cheated by her. I thought she was so pitiful, so I helped her." One, after all, she was still my fan at that time, and if I don't help, netizens will scold me too."

Father Zou became even angrier after hearing this, and sneered, "I want to see, she has nothing to do with how to climb up, relying on that kind of nonsense ability? If she can go to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, I will give her my face." Hit the ground."

He didn't believe that a person who had no father, no mother, nothing, and wanted to squeeze into a wealthy family could really have a great future.

A little girl who has not been out of society, she is ignorant of sinister people and the calculations of adults, maybe she has lost her temper with Xie Mingjun now, and let Xie Mingjun fight against her father.

Some people are born to give people stepping stones.

It's just like some people are born to eat with a golden bowl, but some people just want to dig the soil in the field with a hoe.

When it's time to resign, you have to resign.

Zou's father patted Zou Yuxi, "Okay, let's eat, and don't hit the smiling person with your hand. The day after tomorrow, you will bring a gift to your Uncle Xie. Don't say I asked you to go, just say that you used to pay New Year's greetings, and say something nice to him Happy."

·

On the day Zou Yuxi went, Xie Mingjun hadn't come back yet, and the yard of Xie's house was empty. Seeing that there was no guest, he brought a lot of presents, which couldn't be carried with two hands, and put them all at the door waiting for someone to pick them up. .

Mr. Xie stopped Aunt Lin who was going to open the door, "Just say that I'm not at home, and find a way to get the things he brought back."

"Ah? Let's not welcome him?" Aunt Lin was a little puzzled. It's been a while since the last incident. It stands to reason that Zou Yuxi took the initiative to come here, but he also stretched out his hand and didn't hit the smiling face. Now that their family is here to apologize, this matter is fine. If it's over, it won't be a problem, so why is Mr. Xie avoiding it?

Mr. Xie said: "I just reconciled with Mr. Ming. If I receive him, Mr. Ming will have to fight with me later. It doesn't matter what others say. The main thing is that Mr. Ming should not be angry with me and my family cannot be destroyed."

Aunt Lin nodded as she listened. Mr. Ming loved Mr. Ming the most. She thought for a while, "It's just that it's a bit difficult not to accept the gift. It seems that we are unreasonable... OK, I know what to say, then Mr. You should hide it a little bit." , don’t let him find out.”

"Thanks a lot."

Aunt Lin seized the time to go to the door. Zou Yuxi brought a lot of things. The big iron gate outside the courtyard was locked. Aunt Lin opened the door pretendingly, and said, "Hey, what a coincidence today, sir. I'm afraid I won't be able to come back, do you still want to come in to pay New Year's greetings?"

Mr. Xie is not at home, so it is meaningless to pray this year, but he will definitely enter the door of Xie's house. As long as he brings things in, the two families will be reconciled. When Zou Yuxi came, his father repeatedly told him.

Zou Yuxi smiled and said: "Aunt Lin, I wish you New Year's greetings first. It's okay if Uncle Xie is not here. I will send these things in. I will come back next time. I am really sorry last time. My parents also had something wrong. I want to send them away." some presents."

"Hi." Aunt Lin stretched out her hand to pick it up, then retracted it halfway, and said, "Mingjun and Dongyin may be coming back tonight, why don't you stay for a meal, and these precious gifts can be kept by Mingjun. .”

"... Mingjun and Dongyin are coming back?"

"That's right, they just went to a friend's house to play for a while. What's the matter? If you don't care, you can come back next time. I won't tell my husband today. I'll call you when he comes back?" Aunt Lin said with a smile .

Zou Yuxi thought of Xie Mingjun's ruthless look last time, and adding Dong Yin, he was afraid that the gift would be thrown out again after being sent in, maybe he would have to suffer mixed doubles.

"... That's fine." Zou Yuxi carried his things into the car, and when he was about to leave, he took a look at the balcony of Xie's house, and happened to see a figure, and took a closer look, it was Mr. Xie!

Mr. Xie was on the phone, stood for a while and walked into the room.

Zou Yuxi hurriedly told his father about it, complaining in a tone of voice.

Zou's father scolded him, "You idiot, he just let you see him at home on purpose! You just send the things in, you don't care if he throws them away or eats them, why are you so stupid! Tell him to go talk to someone Said, you went to his house with the gift and wandered around, and left without giving him the gift, saying that you were deliberately hitting him in the face. Are you stupid?"

"No, you didn't tell me, how could I get it, then I'll send it back?"

"Send me a fart, you send it back now, let people know, can't it be said that we humbly asked him to apologize? Isn't it because we did something wrong, is he justified?"

"...Then, what should I do?" Zou Yuxi was dizzy, why are adults so calculating, isn't Uncle Xie a very nice person, and usually dotes on him?Why are you doing this to him now?

He couldn't figure it out, but he just heard his dad scolding over there, "What an old fox, he's probably trying to kick our house! He's got a good idea!"

The noise outside did not affect Xie's family. Xie's family was quiet, and it was the most deserted family in the villa area. It didn't look like it was Chinese New Year at all.

Aunt Lin didn't understand those twists and turns, and she didn't know the relationship between Xie Mingjun and Dong Yin, so she thought they were good friends, and Xie Mingjun's friend who defended her had a falling out with Mr. Xie.

Mr. Xie came down from the second floor. He was calling Xie Mingjun, with a flattering tone, coaxing her and saying, "Look, Dad just drove Yuxi away. Are you not angry with Dad now? From now on, you, Uncle Zou, will beg you Look at me, I won't let Yuxi enter the door of our house."

"The bank has to think about it again. After all, we have cooperated with the Zou family for so many years, and there must be a lot of troubles. But this time, I will listen to you. If you say it is not reconciled, then we will stop dealing with each other. How about it?"

"Are you coming back at night? Tomorrow I have to visit your mother and bring some flowers to your mother. I'll clean it up or you come back and get it? Forget it, you play with Dong Yin and the others for a while, and Dad will get it."

After a long time, Mr. Xie sighed.

Xie Mingjun hummed.

After hanging up the phone, Mr. Xie was in a good mood and asked Aunt Lin to pour him a cup of tea. He took the scissors and prepared to go to the greenhouse to pick flowers. The flowers sold outside were all the same, and the flowers grown at home were more fragrant. He said, "I'll go to the greenhouse , and if someone comes to me to play mahjong, you just say that I am not at home."

He walked to the backyard, and this time he said "true".

Aunt Lin said: "Now we don't entertain guests at home, so it's quite free. Sir, you should take this opportunity to have a good rest. In previous years, there were a lot of people, but there was nothing to play with, and they were all flatterers. You were also tired." Panic."

Mr. Xie nodded and asked her to bring the tea to the conservatory.

Aunt Lin asked casually, but she was also puzzled, and said, "Didn't you like Yuxi before? The two families get along well and help each other. Don't you plan to continue the relationship this time? Or Wait for Ming Jun to lose his temper, and then match them up?"

Mr. Xie took a sip of tea, and said leisurely: "If Mr. Ming doesn't like it, then change it. She likes whoever she likes. It's not like our family has no money. Do you want her to marry me? Earn so much money." A lot of money can't make my children happy, so what's the use of earning money, the relationship between the Zou family will be broken, and it's not like we are picking him up to live, right?"

"Sir, you think so clearly." Aunt Lin sounded reasonable, and immediately felt that this relationship would be broken if it was broken, and there was nothing to regret, and said: "In the future, no matter who it is, it will be a blessing to be able to fall in love with our Mr. Ming." Those who share, tsk tsk, I don't know who will take our Mingjun in the future."

Mr. Xie smiled gently.

But what Aunt Lin didn't know was that what Mr. Xie said in his mouth was that what he was thinking in his heart was: if Mr. Ming and Yuxi were together, the ancestors of their Zou family would crawl out of their graves and say that he was a good person.

I won't give my daughter the land I conquered, but give it to you?joke.

Holding the scissors, he brushed the blooming Bingdi roses with his fingers. The roses bloomed coquettishly and had a pleasant fragrance.

With a click, one of them broke its root.
