Chapter 211 Let’s eat melon seeds and watch the Spring Festival Gala together
"Yeah, you figured this out. You're such a clever little fellow."
Lu Yuanqiu turned his head and glanced at his sister, pouring hot water into the cup as he spoke, but he didn't expect Lu Yidong to turn around and "betray" him so quickly.
"Dad! Lu Yuanqiu put something strange in my sister's cup! It's red."
"He wants to harm my sister."
Lu Yuanqiu made a "tsk" sound, smiled nonchalantly, and carefully used a clean straw to stir the brown sugar water evenly.
"What strange thing?" Lu Tian looked over.
Bai Qingxia had just pulled back her father's hand which was about to touch the TV in the living room, "Be good." She frowned and warned him. After hearing Lu Yidong's words, she also looked over.
Although she was a guest, she didn't dare to stay half a meter away from her father, for fear that her father would touch anything in the living room if she wasn't paying attention.
"I poisoned it." Lu Yuanqiu walked to the table with two glasses of boiled water.
He looked towards Bai Qingxia and said to her, "It's okay, don't worry about your uncle. The things won't break. It's okay if he takes something he likes. It's not worth much."
Lu Tian agreed with a smile, then looked at the two glasses of water on the table. When he found that one of them was red, he immediately widened his eyes: "What the hell is this?"
He also didn't remember having any red instant drinks at home.
Lu Yidong said faintly: "It's a red poison."
...It's fine that dad is stupid and didn't see it, but you, a girl, are also following suit and talking nonsense, Lu Yuanqiu rolled his eyes at his sister.
He didn't explain, which would make Bai Qingxia embarrassed.
After the father and daughter sat down on the sofa, Bai Qingxia stretched her head and looked, her eyes slightly widened. She glanced at Lu Yuanqiu secretly, her eyes a little shy, and picked up the cup with both hands.
The girl put the water to her lips and took a sip, and the corners of her mouth immediately curved upwards. The warmth of the brown sugar water seemed to spread into her heart at this moment.
Sister Li had taught her to drink brown sugar water during menstruation, so she understood Lu Yuanqiu's intention.
"What the hell is this?" Lu Tian kept asking.
Bai Qingxia said quickly: "Nothing..."
Lu Yuanqiu: "I bought some hot drinks."
Seeing that Lu Tian was no longer curious, Bai Qingxia put down the cup and gently said to Lu Yuanqiu who was sitting next to her: "Thank you."
Lu Yuanqiu sneered: "What are you thanking me for?"
Bai Qingxia picked up her father's cup and fed him water.
Lu Tian: "Xiao Xia, come spend the New Year with us this time. It's too lonely for you and your dad alone. It's lively here with our whole family."
Before Bai Qingxia could respond, Lu Yuanqiu interrupted, "We have to go back home on New Year's Eve, right?"
Bai Qingxia was actually about to agree, but when she saw Lu Yuanqiu talking, she sat quietly on the side and listened to the conversation between the father and son.
After Lu Yuanqiu's reminder, Lu Tiancai finally realized: "Oh, yes... you have to go back to your old house with your three uncles, but it's okay for Xiaoxia to go with you."
Bai Qingxia asked softly: "Where is your hometown?"
Lu Yuanqiu turned his head and said, "Guo County, in the countryside, my grandma usually lives there. She is not used to living in the city."
Bai Qingxia had no idea about this address. Seeing her in a daze, Lu Yuanqiu smiled and said, "It's not far. It only takes three or four hours to drive there. Just stay there with us for one night on New Year's Eve."
"Then I want to sleep with my sister!"
Lu Yidong happily jumped over and hugged Bai Qingxia's neck. Bai Qingxia smiled, not quite used to the little Loli's enthusiasm. Suddenly, she heard Lu Yuanqiu questioning, "Why did you sleep with her?"
"Sister smells so good, I just want to sleep with her." The little girl pouted and shook her head. "What about Uncle Bai?"
"Everyone will be sleeping on the floor anyway, so just lie down together."
Bai Qingxia, who was hugged by the little girl, was stunned and asked in confusion: "Sleeping on the floor?"
Lu Yuanqiu pulled the corner of his mouth speechlessly: "The old house is small, there are not enough rooms, and my grandma doesn't want to move to another place, and she doesn't want to build a new house for her, so every time we go back together to celebrate the New Year, a family of more than a dozen people can only sleep on the floor."
Lu Yidong: "I think this is fun. We can sleep together, chat at night, and watch the Spring Festival Gala while eating melon seeds."
...Watching the Spring Festival Gala, Lu Yuanqiu got a headache when he thought of the signal of the TV in his hometown.
Every time he went outside to move the signal pot, even in the coldest weather, the uncles would say that among the whole family of elderly, weak, women and children, only he was the only little boy who was strong and resistant to the cold, so he went out to carry the pot!
Lu Yuanqiu really wanted to curse.
Lu Tian stretched his head and looked over: "Xiao Xia, are you willing to go home with us for the New Year?"
Let's go home together for the New Year. This sentence sounds so warm.
Bai Qingxia grabbed her father's hand, nodded expectantly, and smiled a little embarrassedly: "If it's possible, I'm willing to..."
Lu Tian sneered: "Of course you can, you kid said so."
Su Xiaoya's voice came from the kitchen: "Bring the dishes!"
Bai Qingxia quickly got up and walked towards the kitchen, Lu Yuanqiu followed her, and Lu Yidong took Bai Songzhe towards the dining room. Only Lu Tian was sitting alone on the sofa, watching the boys and girls passing by serving dishes and laughing.
"Xiao Xia is becoming more and more like a family to us. Oh, it would be great if she could become the daughter-in-law of the Lu family in the future."
Lu Tian smiled heartlessly.
Seeing Bai Qingxia walking towards the restaurant with her head down and a red face, Lu Yuanqiu stood there with the dishes in his hand, looking in the direction of his father with the corners of his mouth twitching wildly.
...You can ruin the atmosphere even more severely, father. You can do it. You always can. Come on.
Su Xiaoya secretly glanced at Bai Qingxia, who was sitting at the dinner table, too embarrassed to raise her head, and knocked her husband hard on the head.
She lowered her voice and said, "That's not what you said. Do you want to scare people away?"
Lu Tian covered his mouth expressionlessly.
Okay, I'll keep my mouth shut from now on... He reflected in his heart.
Fortunately, deep down in her heart the girl did not reject what Lu's father had just said, so the atmosphere at the dinner table soon became lively and peaceful again.
Su Xiaoya kept picking up food for her daughter-in-law... Oh no, for Bai Qingxia, which made Lu Yuanqiu couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly.
Bai Qingxia didn't eat a single bite for a long time, just nodded and thanked him.
When talking about tomorrow's New Year's Eve party during dinner, Lu Yidong was so shocked that he almost jumped on his chair: "What?! You two have a program? Can your sister dance ballet?"
She knew that her brother could sing and sang quite well, but this did not change her view of him.
Bai Qingxia nodded shyly: "I know a little bit..."
"She is really modest." Lu Yuanqiu said, then took out his mobile phone and opened the video recorded this afternoon.
"Look, look, what a real white swan is!"
Lu Tian, Su Xiaoya, and Lu Yido all leaned forward. Bai Qingxia lowered her head to eat shyly, her cheeks flushed.
"You call this knowing a little?" Lu Yidong bit the tip of his chopsticks in surprise.
Lu Tian and Su Xiaoya looked at Bai Qingxia in surprise, then looked at the phone screen in surprise, as if they were trying to verify whether they were the same person.
