I want to be emperor

Chapter 852

The two of them worked together, and soon the New Year's Eve dinner was ready.

Because it was in a hurry, and there were only two single dogs who were alone, naturally they didn't pay much attention, it was just a few dishes and a soup.

Ms. Meng is from Jiangxi, so the dishes she cooks are also southern-style New Year's Eve dinners, which are quite different from the Northwest dishes that Sun Xu grew up with.

But Sun Xu ate very happily... It's not because Miss Meng's cooking skills are so good, it's actually just average.

After all, Ms. Meng is just not a professional chef, and the home-cooked dishes she cooks are just that, not even as delicious as the big pot dishes made by the chefs in the cafeteria of Anhua Textile Company...

However, Sun Xu still finds it very delicious, not only delicious, but also very comfortable.

Seeing Sun Xu eating happily, Miss Meng sitting opposite was also in a good mood, with a faint smile on her face all the time.

They eat without talking, sleep without talking, both of them are educated people, and the relationship between the two of them is not to the extent that they can talk while chewing while eating, which is too unsightly.

Although the two of them ate in a leisurely manner, they finished eating quickly. Sun Xu put down the bowls and chopsticks, drank a mouthful of tea and rinsed his mouth, and then said: "To be honest, this is what I have been doing in recent years. The best meal I've ever had, Miss Meng's cooking skills are really good!"

Ms. Meng put down her chopsticks a little earlier than Sun Xu, and said after hearing Sun Xu's words, "Mr. Sun has won the prize!"

He said it politely, but the joy on his face did not diminish, and he continued to say: "Actually, I seldom cook. I eat work meals in the mall on weekdays, and only cook on rest days. I can cook for myself."

After Sun Xu heard this, he followed the topic: "Oh, after that, you will have your rest day, so I wonder if I can disturb you?"

As he said that, Sun Xu hurriedly said, "I won't eat for free. I buy vegetables, and I can help, and I can wash the dishes after eating."

This was said in a serious manner, but after hearing this, Ms. Meng, who was opposite, lowered her head slightly and did not reply, her face began to flush slightly again.

Seeing her like this, Sun Xu said, "Then it's settled!"

Ms. Meng blushed even more now, and hurriedly said: "This is not good, and my rest day is different from your company's rest day, and the time is not right!"

Ms. Meng works in Huidong Department Store. Naturally, it is impossible for a retail business like a department store to be on vacation when others are resting...or even the other way around, she will be busier when others are on vacation. A rest day in a normal institution or business.

However, at Anhua Textile Company, where Sun Xu works, most of the employees follow the regular vacation time, which is every Monday, that is, the 11th and 21st of each month.

However, their machine repair department is a bit special, because they need to take advantage of the holidays and stop production of ordinary factory employees to shut down and maintain many mechanical equipment... It also belongs to the mode that others go to work when they are on holiday.

Therefore, Sun Xu's rest time is not very fixed, and most of them take turns to take rest.

It's just that Ms. Meng is not very familiar with it, so she doesn't know.

Sun Xu pretended not to see Miss Meng's blushing, and continued to say seriously: "It's easy to arrange the rest time, I can apply for a day off."

After Sun Xu said a few words, he immediately blocked Miss Meng's excuse... Miss Meng's face turned even redder... She simply stopped talking.

There are some things that need not be said too clearly, and everyone knows it.

What Sun Xu was thinking, Ms. Meng must be able to see and hear it...

Sun Xu is not stupid, so he can see the general idea of ​​Miss Meng... If I don't like this, I can have a New Year's Eve dinner with a man like you, and I will live alone in the same room!
After the pair finished eating, Sun Xu helped them clean up the dishes, and then said: "Let's go, it's getting late, let's start early!"

While talking, he took out his pocket watch and looked at it: "I heard that the fireworks show starts at eight o'clock, and it's just right for us to go there now!"

When Ms. Meng heard this, she immediately swept away her shyness and said quickly, "Okay, let's go!"

Sun Xu said, "I'll go get the coat!"

After Sun Xu went out to get the coat next door, Miss Meng also took the coat and gloves from the hanger... But after thinking about it, she went into the bedroom to touch up her makeup.

Although I had already put on makeup when I went out this afternoon, after cooking and eating, it was somewhat messy, especially the lipstick was wiped off before eating.

After drawing the eyebrows a little, I applied sandalwood lip gloss with a lip gloss paper, then looked in the vanity mirror, and then touched up with foundation a little.

After finishing up her makeup, Ms. Meng opened the drawer, picked out two pearl-carved hairpins and put them on, and took out a pair of gold pendant earrings. Pick up a bottle of new perfume, pour some out, and rub it behind your ears and on your wrists.

After tidying up briefly, I looked at the vanity mirror repeatedly.

Miss Meng showed a satisfied smile, then got up, walked briskly out of the room, and when she reached the living room, she put on the rabbit fur cloak, leather gloves and hat.

Finally, he picked up the small leather bag and went out.

When he arrived at the door, he found that Sun Xu was already dressed and waiting.

Only Sun Xu said: "Okay, let's go!"

At this time, Ms. Meng had already put away her happy expression just now, she just nodded slightly and hummed, she was dignified and ladylike.

After the two went downstairs, Sun Xu first went to the house of the person who helped watch the carriage on the first floor, said a few words of thanks, and gave the couple's three or four-year-old little girl a Chinese New Year red envelope. Say goodbye and leave.

The young couple, standing at the door with their children in their arms, happened to see Sun Xu holding the carriage with one hand and extending the other hand as a handrail, making it easier for Miss Meng to get on the carriage.

When the husband saw this scene, he couldn't help sighing: "That's Ms. Meng from the fourth floor, she's usually quite arrogant, but she doesn't pay much attention to anyone she meets on the road. Why did she lose her temper?"

The wife said: "If you're like this, who cares about you, that's why I fell in love with you when I was blind!"

"And no matter how proud she is, she's just a girl who buys jewelry. She just pretends to be arrogant because of her good looks. But who is Brother Sun? He's an engineer in a big factory. Income is income, so if you encounter it, you should not seize it!"

The husband said: "Look at what you said, why am I so bad...Your husband, I am also a team leader..."

The wife choked without hesitation: "What a team leader, he only manages a few rough men under his command. He only earns so little every month, and he can't even afford to rent a house in the suburbs!"

"Let me tell you, if I can't move to the suburbs next year, I'll take Qin'er back to my mother's house...I've had enough of this damn place. Ever since I brought my child to Songjiang with you, she's been dying every few days. Sick, let me tell you..."

Naturally, Sun Xu and Ms. Meng did not know about the conversation between the young couple. At this time, Ms. Meng had already got into the carriage first, and then Sun Xu also got into the carriage from the other side.

After getting into the carriage and sitting down, Sun Xu could clearly feel Miss Meng beside him, moving her body involuntarily... But the carriage that Sun Xu rented was just a light two-seater carriage.

There is definitely no problem for two people to sit, but it is impossible for you to think how spacious it is... Even if there is no body-to-body contact, the distance between the two people is very close.

Even Ms. Meng seemed to be able to hear Sun Xu's breathing as he approached!
Sun Xu didn't think about his attitude, but started to concentrate on driving!
Although Sun Xu drove a lot in his hometown, he had never driven a car after arriving in Songjiang. Moreover, when driving a carriage in his hometown, although the roads were not spacious, and there were no concrete or asphalt roads, the carriages and carriages on the road There are not many pedestrians.

After all, it is a small place with few people and cars. If you go out of the central area of ​​the county, there will be no people and cars in the large suburbs. As long as you don’t run too fast when driving a horse-drawn carriage, and don’t foolishly drive the horses directly off the road, you will basically be able to what's wrong.

But in Songjiang City, there are many people and vehicles, and at the same time, it will be night, even if there are gas lamps on the street, but the dim gas lamps cannot be too dense, and there will only be one at a long distance, so Even though the road is visible, it is not clear.

When Sun Xu was driving at this time, he naturally had to put up all his energy to avoid any accidents.

The accident itself was nothing, but today I was traveling with Miss Meng, so it would be bad if something happened to disturb the beauty.

The place where they live is about five or six kilometers away from the river, but this is a straight-line distance... In fact, there is no straight avenue that passes directly through it, and you have to go around a few streets to reach the river.

Calculated from this, the actual distance may reach seven or eight kilometers.

In order to be safe at night, the carriage driven by Sun Xu is not fast, only about twelve or thirteen kilometers per hour. It will take at least half an hour to go this way.

During such a long period of time, it is naturally impossible for two people to drive alone and keep silent, but to chat and move forward.

They talked about some ordinary daily topics, and they talked about the work and life around them.

After chatting for a while, Sun Xu felt that Ms. Meng was not too restrained, at least she would not blindly move out, and kept her distance from Sun Xu as much as possible.

Instead, they sat with the flow, and the distance between the two gradually narrowed under this circumstance, until they were no more than a fist apart.

Sun Xu could even clearly smell the perfume coming out from behind her ears. It was a faint scent of jasmine, as if there was a faint scent of lily of the valley, and the overall appearance was fresh and elegant. There is an atmosphere of a lady who is well-educated and reasonable.

The smell of this perfume, in this cold and dark winter street, gave Sun Xu the feeling of being in the drizzle ancient alley at the turn of spring and summer.

"Very good perfume smell!" Sun Xu continued to hold the rein with his black leather gloved hand, looked ahead, and continued, "Elegant yet beautiful!"

After hearing this, Ms. Meng revealed a slightly proud expression, but said in her mouth: "Well, this is just a very small perfume brand, I bought it a while ago, and this is the first time I use it! "

Perfume is indeed just a brand that is not very famous, but although the perfume brand is not famous, it does not mean that it is cheap... In fact, most of the products in Huidong Department Store are not well-known outside... But it does not prevent them from being expensive .

This niche perfume costs more than one yuan a bottle, which is equivalent to one-third of the monthly salary of ordinary workers. Ms. Meng bought it because of her heart.

The most important thing is that this perfume was carefully selected by Ms. Meng, not randomly... This perfume was chosen after a lot of painstaking efforts and bought at a huge price. Its smell can make people like it , which is naturally a very joyful thing.

Of course, this person is only limited to a specific person!

What if a plainly dressed, ugly-looking man popped up on the street, came over out of nowhere, and said like Brother Pig: "Your perfume smells so good."

Ms. Meng was definitely about to run away, so she yelled, "Hooligan, help me!"

Women are the ones who please themselves, although there are some sayings that women will dress up to appreciate themselves and those who like them... But, the author also likes the thigh era, why don't the thigh era dress up for me alone...

Therefore, the self-pleasing person, in reality, refers to someone who can 'make himself happy'... A woman will dress up for him if she likes him; not the other way around, if he likes a woman, she will dress up for him.

Sun Xu is also a educated person, let alone stupid. When Miss Meng went out with him during the day, or even when they ate together, she didn't have a clear smell of perfume on her body, but when she went out to watch the fireworks together tonight, she smelled perfume. Naturally, I can sense some of Miss Meng's thoughts.

So the smile on the face is even bigger.

The carriage moved forward. Although the kerosene lamp on the carriage was dim, it illuminated the smiles of the two people clearly.

The smile blooms in the night, like pink and white lilies blooming in the cold winter night, which makes people feel warm just looking at it.

After walking for more than half an hour, when they came to Yanjiang Road, there were more and more carriages here.

Obviously, Sun Xu and Ms. Meng are not the only people who come to watch the fireworks on New Year's Eve, but the common choice of many people.

After arriving here, the number of carriages has increased, and the roads have gradually become congested. Moreover, because of the fireworks festival, the Songjiang government has already made various arrangements. The wide Yanjiang Avenue has already been blocked and used as a temporary parking lot. At the same time, people are sent to guard the carriages and horses. ...Of course, there is a fee for parking, and it's not cheap. After all, a lot of people are needed to guard it.

A horse-drawn carriage is different from a car. A car can be turned off and parked and thrown there, but a horse-drawn carriage is not acceptable. Horses are living animals, so it is easy to cause trouble if left unattended.

Of course, there is no need to worry about some carriages with full-time coachmen, and there are coachmen watching anytime and anywhere, but some carriages without full-time coachmen will not work, so special personnel are needed to take care of them.

At the same time, the Yanjiang Green Park on the outside of Yanjiang Avenue also pulled up various warning lines early, and a large number of patrols and even armed patrols were stationed and patrolled.

Sun Xu and the others also saw a team of more than ten people in front of them, with long guns on their backs, pistols pinned to their waists, and armed patrols with short sticks passing by in front of them. , and even feel very at ease.

Such a large-scale grand event is naturally full of traffic and people. If there is not enough official security force, they are afraid of encountering some troubles.

After arriving at the place, Sun Xu drove to the place. He wanted to get off the car and continue to the Jiangbian Park, but found that there were too many people in the Jiangbian Park, so he finally decided not to go to the Jiangbian Park and waited in the carriage to watch the fireworks.

Anyway, the fireworks will rise from the sky and bloom in the night sky, so there is no need to worry that they will be invisible from a long distance from the river.

After parking the car, he fastened the horse's reins to the post, and Sun Xu also fed the horse with water and feed to supplement the horse's physical strength.

After finishing the work, I saw a half-grown guy next to me carrying a shoulder pole, selling hot tea, snacks and other festive gadgets, so I walked quickly over to buy two cups of hot tea and snacks and returned to the carriage.

While chatting with Ms. Meng, I waited for the fireworks show to start.

They didn't wait too long. About a quarter of an hour later, they saw some patrolmen shouting with trumpet-shaped microphones, saying that the fireworks show was about to start, and asked everyone to choose a place to watch, don't walk around, and at the same time watch the horses to avoid The horses startled during the firework show.

About half an hour later, suddenly there was a loud noise from the river ahead, followed by a meteor-like firework soaring into the sky, and there were bursts of whistling sound. The bang sound reached the ears.

At the same time, the streamer from the fireworks filled the entire sky like shooting stars!

Before the meteors in the night sky were extinguished, three more big fireworks shot up into the sky, and then a whole row of small fireworks rose in the middle of the river!

The grand fireworks continued to bloom, lighting up the night sky of Songjiang in an instant... Sun Xu raised his head to watch the fireworks show, but couldn't help but open his mouth halfway, and didn't react for a long time.

This scene is so shocking!

After recovering, she turned her head to look at Ms. Meng. Ms. Meng also looked shocked and excited at this time, and finally she couldn't help but let out a cry of 'wow wow wow'.

Under the light of fireworks, the delicate face looks extremely alluring!

In the next second, Sun Xu stretched out his right hand and grabbed her hand... Although the two of them were actually still wearing gloves at this time, and there was no skin-to-skin contact, Miss Meng beside her was still obviously taken aback, her face was covered by fireworks. It looked even redder under the firelight, but after a little struggle, it didn't open, so there was no more struggle.

Sun Xu raised his head again, and the fireworks in the sky were continuously illuminating the sky, gorgeous and eye-catching!
This night's fireworks, this is destined to be the most shocking and unforgettable fireworks event he has ever seen in his life!
