Chapter 61: 612 People and 1 Bowl of Noodles
Chapter 61: Two people and a bowl of noodles
Chatted for a while.
Second aunt Deng Juan brought out a big bowl of noodles from the kitchen and put it on the table: "Xixi, Xiaolin, come and eat noodles. After eating longevity noodles, I wish grandma good health and longevity, and may she live to be a hundred years old!"
The two of them agreed.
The birthday banquet was scheduled for noon, and the reason why everyone came in the morning was just for this bowl of longevity noodles.
This is the custom in Nanzhou Province.
Longevity noodles are not only eaten by the birthday person, but also by all their descendants. It means to bring blessings and pray for the health and longevity of the elderly.
In rural areas, people even cook a big pot of pork noodles and distribute them door to door in buckets.
This custom has been simplified a lot after entering the city, but it is a must for the whole family to eat longevity noodles.
Lin Xiao and Han Xixi sat over and looked at the big bowl of noodles on the table. There was more soup than noodles, and their eyes were confused.
"Why one bowl?" Han Xixi asked.
"Who told you to come so late? All the small bowls are gone, and the noodles are all here!"
The second aunt smiled and brought two pairs of chopsticks and two spoons, "You are a couple, why do you have to eat separately? You can eat from the same bowl!"
Lin Xiao and Han Xixi looked at each other and pursed their lips guiltily.
Then he sat down obediently.
You must eat longevity noodles, otherwise you are cursing the elderly.
So despite the awkward situation, the two of them still gritted their teeth, picked up chopsticks and soup spoons, sat on both sides of the table, picked up the noodles into the spoons in a very awkward manner, and then used the spoons to feed them into their mouths.
A bowl of noodles can take you a long way.
Liang Tian came out of the room and sat down on the other side of the round table, staring at the two of them eagerly.
"What are you doing?" Han Xixi asked.
"Why... are you guys so weird?" Liang Tian said with a frown.
"eccentric?!"
Han Xixi felt a little guilty, "What's weird about that?"
Liang Tian frowned and said, "I can't explain it, but it's weird... It's different from the ones in our class who are in love!"
Aunt Wu Min came over and said, "Xiao Tiantian, what are you saying? Your sister and brother-in-law are already husband and wife, so how can they still be in love?"
Liang Tian said, "Aren't couples also in love? I look at them and feel something is wrong..."
The words have not yet fallen.
Han Xixi suddenly scooped a spoonful of soup and fed it to Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao’s eyes widened and he asked her what she meant.
Han Xixi's ears turned red and he couldn't explain, but the spoon was fed to his mouth very stiffly.
Seeing that there was nowhere to hide, Lin Xiao could only bite the bullet and drink the noodle soup.
In line with the principle of reciprocity, he picked up a handful of noodles with chopsticks, blew on it seriously, and fed it to Han Xixi.
Han Xixi pursed her lips and ate, her earlobes turning red.
Liang Tian, who was standing by, started laughing: "That's right, those couples in our class feed each other like this... Ugh, it's so choking!"
Liang Tian stuck out her tongue and ran away.
Lin Xiao and Han Xixi both breathed a sigh of relief. They didn't expect that a top star in his previous life and a singer in his current life, both of whom made a living by acting in front of the camera, would be forced into this state by a little girl.
The two looked at each other, and the temperature inexplicably became hot.
"Hmm... the noodle soup must be too hot..." Han Xixi thought to himself.
……
Finished the noodles.
The women gathered in a room to talk, while the men smoked and chatted on the balcony.
In the living room, several young people gathered around the two old people, laughing and eating snacks and the chestnut cakes that Han Xixi brought.
In a corner of the sofa, there was a boy playing with a tablet. He was estimated to be about ten years old and was my aunt Liu Lixia’s youngest son.
Lin Xiao went to the balcony and saw Liang Tian's father, Liang Bin. Liang Bin was about to smoke, but when he saw him take a quick look, he handed the cigarette box over.
"Xiaolin, want one?"
"Thank you, uncle, I can't!"
As she said that, she naturally took the lighter from his hand and lit it for him.
Liang Bin was somewhat surprised at the smoothness of the movements.
He exhaled a puff of smoke and smiled meaningfully: "You don't look like someone who can't smoke!"
Lin Xiao smiled but didn't answer.
He knew that Liang Bin was not referring to any signs of smoking on him, but made this judgment based solely on his actions just now.
He did not explain and lit cigarettes for his eldest uncle Liu Lisong and his second uncle Liu Linian.
Han Haijun secretly glanced at Liu Liyun in the room, and couldn't help but smoke a cigarette, and deliberately hid in the blind corner on the balcony.
Then, the topic naturally fell on Lin Xiao.
"Xiao Lin, I heard from my brother-in-law that you went to the countryside to work as a farmer?" Liang Bin asked.
"Yes, uncle-in-law!"
"Why would you have such an idea... Could it be that because my brother-in-law was promoted to mayor of Yizhou, you quickly jumped from Ninghai to Yizhou so that you can hide under the big tree and enjoy the shade?"
This was said in a joking tone, but the suspicion in his words was real.
Lin Xiao was not annoyed either.
After all, this suspicion is reasonable. If he were an outsider, he would think so too.
He smiled and said, "The city is full of tall buildings, while the countryside has many trees. If you want to enjoy the shade, you have to go to the countryside!"
One sentence made everyone laugh.
His words neither denied Liang Bin's guess nor acknowledged it.
But the relaxed tone naturally broke the interrogation situation and made the atmosphere relaxed.
Liang Bin changed his opinion of him again.
The subsequent conversation was less tense. Everyone asked about his work, which they found quite interesting. After two rounds of conversation, the topic naturally changed to other things.
Liang Bin suddenly asked: "Hey, second uncle, has your son Bowen found a job?"
Liu Linian, who was suddenly asked, looked embarrassed.
Among four brothers and sisters, his family background is the worst, and his children are the most troublesome.
My son Liu Bowen graduated from university and his family used connections to arrange a job for him in a bank. However, he quit after working for half a year because he was not happy with the job and said he wanted to take postgraduate entrance exams.
After two years of failing the exam, he said he wanted to continue looking for a job.
It turned out that I didn't like the ones arranged by my family, and I couldn't find anyone I liked on my own, so I've been living with this half-full bottle of money until now.
When Liang Bin asked this, Liu Linian was immediately annoyed and said coldly, "What the hell...let him be, I can't control him!"
Liang Bin said, "If it really doesn't work, let him come to Beijing to find me. Is it difficult to arrange a job for my own child?"
Liu Linian said, "Binzi, I'm not being polite to you. I really thought so. But your sister-in-law is a bit ignorant and can't bear to let her precious child go so far. She insisted on finding a job in Ninghai... Let them do whatever they want!"
When Liang Bin heard his refusal, he actually secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Anyway, the favor has been done, so don’t make it their business.
The eldest uncle Liu Lisong, who had been silent the whole time, spoke up at this moment, looked at Lin Xiao and smiled, "My eldest sister is so lucky. She has a successful career in the navy, her daughter has become a big star, and her son-in-law is also handsome and hardworking... Now your family is thriving!"
Han Haijun shook his head repeatedly after hearing this. He calmly changed the subject and praised the children of the three families in real and fake ways.
This rescued the father-in-law and son-in-law from this hateful atmosphere.
Lin Xiao was amazed by what he saw.
I have to say, the mayor is the mayor, and your father is still your father!
