The last elf

When someone leaves, someone will naturally come. Yesterday Yuxi left, and today my mother is back. .biqugev

At : this morning, my cell phone suddenly rang. It was my dad.

"Hey, son, come to the train station quickly. Your mother will be there in half an hour."

"Yeah, I'll be there soon."

After hanging up the phone, I looked at Hu Shuirong and Xueying beside me. Since today was the Chinese New Year, there were people setting off firecrackers outside before dawn, so they didn't sleep much. At this time, they were squinting sleepily. I.

"I'm going to pick up my mother. You two, Sister Xiaoyue and Ah Li, just stay at home with Lulu. I'll be back later. Remember to ask Sister Xiaoyue to post the door god later. When I come back, we can finish writing the couplet together. eat reunion dinner."

After I finished speaking, I hugged them both and kissed them, then got out of bed, got dressed, and came to Ahri's bedside. I saw Lulu curled up in Ahri's arms and sleeping soundly. This little girl has not slept with her mother recently. Instead, she likes to sleep with Ahri, and she likes to hold Ahri's nine tails while sleeping. Seeing her holding Ahri's tail at this time, she still has her eyes closed. The grin on her face showed that she was dreaming. This little girl was so comfortable. She had no worries about food and clothing since she was born, and she had so many people to play with. She really deserves to be the little princess of my Bai family. She is so happy.

Thinking of this, I lowered my head and kissed her on the face. The little girl frowned, turned over and continued to sleep, but still hugged Ahri's nine snow-white tails and wouldn't let go. Maybe this was because she liked to be with Ahri. The reason for sleeping, to be honest, I would do the same if I were her, because Ahri's tail is so comfortable, especially in such a cold day, it is really the best way to keep out the cold, is it beautiful and practical?

You little girl really makes me fall in love with you more and more!

I stretched out my hand and pinched her chubby little face a few times, and then went out after I was satisfied.

The street is full of red firecracker residue. From a distance, it really looks like one red carpet after another. Every house has lights on, the sky is still gray, and the surroundings are quiet. There is only the sound of firecrackers in the distance. I enjoy the atmosphere of the New Year very much. This is the flavor of the New Year.

After walking for more than ten minutes, I arrived at the train station and saw many people standing at the door, all waiting to greet relatives and friends. At this time, everyone's faces were filled with joy and slight fatigue.

When I came to the exit, I saw my dad squatting in a corner smoking. I walked over and grabbed the cigarette from his hand and said, "Still smoking! When mom sees you, prepare to sleep on the sofa tonight!"

"Hey! Let me finish smoking first! This is the last one. How can I dare to smoke with her around?" Dad said and took the cigarette again and continued to smoke. I was scared to see that. have no choice.

My dad is a strict henpecker. He doesn't even dare to touch the cigarette case when his mom is at home. When his mom is angry, he doesn't even dare to fart. Fortunately, he is a well-known local businessman, so he is controlled like this by his mom. , if outsiders knew this, wouldn’t they laugh to death? Fortunately, I am not a strict henpecker, and the two in the family are very obedient to me, so I despise him.

After a while, the train pulled into the station, and after a while everyone on the train came out. Although I hadn’t seen her for almost a year, I still saw her in the crowd at a glance.

"Mom! Here!!!" I jumped up and waved to her, and when she came over, I gave her a big hug.

"Welcome home to the most beautiful woman in the world!" Dad said and helped her pick up her luggage. Of course, I taught him what he said just now.

"Mom, you look beautiful again! Did you make a lot of money this year?"

My mother smiled and nodded and said, "This year's earnings are pretty good. Son, you have grown a lot taller. Have you made any progress in school this year?"

After hearing this, I thought to myself: Well... it's not that much progress. On the contrary, I haven't gone to school for several months and I don't know where I have retreated. Anyway, the worst is the last one. It doesn't matter, as long as the person is handsome. That’s it, everything else doesn’t matter!

"That's necessary! Our son belongs to the best students and so on. He has a good reputation in the school! The teachers say that our son is her treasure. This boy will be great in the future!" Dad heard what my mother said. Wen quickly helped me cover, but this was not what I taught him. This shows that we have a good understanding and leverage.

"That's good! Let's go home. Let's have a good get-together as a family today!" My mother was very happy when she heard what her father said. She always had a sweet smile on her face, even though she was already forty years old. Although she is old, her figure has been maintained very well and her skin is very tender and smooth. I have to say that my mother is a very beautiful woman, really beautiful.

After I got home, my mother gave me a big red envelope. I didn't count how much was in it. Anyway, at first glance, it was full of Grandpa Mao, but I was so happy that I "begged" for it from my father again. One, I finally have a little more money now. When I return to the rented house, I will send a red envelope to Xueying and the others, as well as Sister Xiaoyue’s salary... Now I, Bai Yunfeng, am the head of the family, and many things are waiting for me. Go make arrangements. Now that I think about it, I am becoming more mature and sensible, right?

To be honest, I haven’t been back to this home for a long time. Ever since I met Ling Xueer, she and I moved to a rented house. My father has always lived in this home. As the saying goes, a home without a woman is really really bad. No, I feel unaccustomed to not being back for so long, not to mention that my mother is not here and my father alone makes the situation worse than a pig's nest, so it is better to have a woman at home.

After the three of us busily tidied up the house, my mother started to make breakfast, while my father and I started to look after the doorkeeper.

After posting the door gods and kitchen gods, I took out a piece of paper for writing couplets and said to my dad, "I want to post the couplets I wrote myself this year!"

My father was surprised when he heard this and quickly pulled my mother over.

"Mom and dad are watching!"

After I finished speaking, I picked up the brush and started writing on the paper. After a few minutes, a couplet came out.

First couplet: Wu Si, Shutong, Zhang Gaoqiu

Second line: The empty mountain is covered with clouds that are not flowing.

Horizontal batch: flowing clouds and flowing water

"How was it?" I asked with a smile after I finished writing.

"High! It's really high! My son is finally going to be successful!" My father gave me a thumbs up when he saw it, and my mother even more so. She took the couplets and started pasting them.

Seeing the couplets I wrote personally being posted in front of my house, my mood at this moment cannot be described as refreshing. Anyway, it is more refreshing than refreshing.

After being busy for a while, our family of three started to have breakfast. After breakfast, the three of us sat on the bed and chatted. As we chatted, we started fighting landlords. I have always had bad luck in playing landlords. I always like to keep the smallest card for last. My idea is that if the big card goes down, you can't afford me to play a small card, but often the opponent has a bigger card in his hand, so I always lose, no matter who is playing against me. Whoever gets home loses, because I also have a habit of deconstructing bombs. I always like to dismantle a bomb and play it as a straight. I can't help it. I can't stand it when others always play a straight while I hold it. A lot of cards have no chance to suppress him. Bombs are used to suppress bombs. I won’t explode other cards. Anyway, this is how I play cards. Isn’t it weird?

"Son... your card skills are very good. You can even defuse bombs. I said why do we always lose? It turns out that this is how you play cards." Dad finally understood my strange card skills, but he took I can't help it, because his own poker skills are not very good, and we are bound to lose anyway.

"Oh no, no more! Mine! All of it is mine!!!" I threw the last pair of threes that I had not had a chance to play for a long time on the table, and then gave all the money in front of my parents. Holding it in my arms, it’s still mine in the end anyway, what’s yours is mine, what’s mine is still mine, maybe it’s Lulu’s… well, that’s it.

My parents didn’t say anything, they just laughed. After we watched TV for a while, it was already noon. Mom and Dad brought the prepared meals to the table. After lighting firecrackers and paying homage to our ancestors, the reunion dinner began. .

There was nothing more than toasting during the meal, but the rental house was still waiting for me to come over, so I got off the table after eating half full, and left the rest of the time to my parents. .

"I'm going back to the rental house first. The next step is the world that belongs to you two. Take advantage of it! Bye!" After I said that, I walked out of the door and ran towards the rental house at a speed that could kill someone every hour.

When I arrived at the rental house, I saw that Li Zhiyue had already prepared the reunion dinner and the doorkeeper had posted it, but the only thing missing was the couplet.

I picked up the brush and danced on the paper for a while, and a couplet came out.

First couplet: The spring beauty of Jinjiang comes to heaven and earth

Second line: Jade barrier floating clouds change ancient and modern times

Hengpi: Through the ages

After putting it on, everyone sat down and started eating the reunion dinner.

During the meal, I gave them all a red envelope. Li Zhiyue was embarrassed to ask for it. After all, she was older than me, but I still forced it on her, because the red envelope is one thing, but the salary in the red envelope is another. , so she had to accept it, but Lulu, a little girl, was the type who would accept whatever was given to her. Anyway, she didn’t want too much, and she wouldn’t refuse anyone who came, but the key was that she knew what this Grandpa Mao should do. Use it? But don’t swallow it thinking it’s something delicious!

While I was eating, I suddenly remembered that I had forgotten to fire the firecrackers, so I hurriedly picked up the firecrackers and walked outside. But as soon as I opened the wrapping paper of the firecrackers, I was stunned. The lead was so short... it was not even as long as a fingernail. , doesn’t it mean he’s going to blow me up?

Alas, there is no other way, let’s give it a try!

I carefully picked up the lighter and clicked it. When I saw the sparks, I immediately ran back. But before I ran a few steps, I was stunned again because... Xueying and Hu Shuirong had already closed the door and windows. Got it! At this time, they were hiding in the house and covering their ears with their hands out of fear, completely ignoring me.

"Hey, hey! I'm still outside! Oh my dear! Open the door quickly!!!" I was so anxious that I opened the door and knocked frantically, but it was too late. After a while, a crackling sound sounded behind me, which scared me. I hurriedly got into a nearby alley and waited until the firecrackers were finished before I dared to come out dejectedly.

After the reunion dinner, I took out the fireworks I bought from the supermarket. A group of us went to the yard and set them off. Although setting off fireworks during the day had no effect, it was just to kill boredom.

I was setting off the fireworks, and suddenly I heard Ahri scream. When I turned around and looked, I saw a bundle of fireworks tied to Ahri's nine tails, and the bundle of fireworks had been lit. There was a fire. You didn't need to guess to know that it was Lulu's fault, because she was the one who liked to play with Ahri's tail the most among all the people here. This little girl actually used Ahri's tail to set off fireworks. It was really outrageous.

Seeing Ahri's tail on fire and running around the yard dragging her flaming tail, I sighed: "How is this still a nine-tailed demon fox? It's almost like a flame-tailed demon fox... …The tail is on fire.”

After we put out Ahri's burning tail with water, we carefully inspected her tails. Fortunately, only one of them was burnt. The other eight tails were fine. It was just that the eight white-haired tails and the black-haired tail were visible. It used to feel a bit awkward.

Looking at Ah Li's pitiful eyes, she looked pitiful, so I comforted her for a long time. As for Lulu, who had been gloating and covering her mouth and snickering, since today was the Chinese New Year, I couldn't beat her, so I had to wait. I'll spank her with chopsticks after the Chinese New Year. She will cry then.

All in all, nothing bad happened during the Chinese New Year. If anything, there was only one thing: Ahri had her tail burned by Lulu. The snow-white color mixed with a bunch of black hair is too obvious, but it is actually quite cute when viewed from a distance, really cute, really...
