Rebirth of Modern Beastmaster

Chapter 23 New Year's Eve

The New Year's Eve dinner broke up again, and after returning home, Lu Dashan and Qian Jinhua didn't say much, just like what Huang Mei said, if they really had the money, their family wouldn't send their only son to study in the city ?Besides, although the couple has made some money in the past six months, the cost of opening the store is also high. In addition, they both want to pay off their debts first, so the family really doesn't have much money.

Qian Jinhua cooked simple noodles with a lot of bacon and delicious poached eggs. After eating it, Lu Qiming felt that it was better than the sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner just now.He finished eating in big mouthfuls, and said with his thumb up, "Mom's cooking is the best."

Originally, Qian Jinhua was in a bad mood, but she smiled when she heard her son's words, and wiped the corners of his mouth with a smile, seeing the child's cheeks flushed with embarrassment, she said with a smile: "If it tastes good, eat more. "

Probably because the child's big appetite affected the adults, Lu Dashan, who was originally a little depressed, also ate a bowl of noodles.

Since it's New Year's Eve, even though there was an upset just now, the family of three unanimously put the unhappiness behind. There were a lot of fireworks, and when there were more children outside after the meal, Lu Qiming was asked to take them out to play.

Lu Qiming is not very interested in fireworks. Although the fireworks in this world are much better than those in his previous life, they are nothing to well-informed practitioners.However, Lu Qiming didn't refuse his mother's kindness, and went out with fireworks. He didn't play, but some people liked to play, and his two cousins ​​liked it very much.

Seeing the child rushing out excitedly, Qian Jinhua's eyes warmed slightly, and she almost didn't shed tears.At this time in previous years, because she was afraid that something would happen to the child, she would always shut Xiaoming at home. Although the child was silly at that time, she knew that the children outside were having fun, and sometimes she just watched enviously by the window, making Qian Jinhua feel sad Yes, but there is no way.

Lu Dashan didn't know what his wife was thinking, so he stretched out his hand and patted her on the shoulder, comfortingly: "Isn't everything all right now, Xiaoming is smart, and he even passed the double hundred exam at the end of the semester, so he will definitely be successful in the future."

Qian Jinhua sniffed and said with a smile, "I don't expect him to be successful, as long as the child is safe and healthy, it will be great."

Lu Qiming is a generous person. He distributed all the fireworks in his hand to the friends who were playing together. Zhang Guoliang was almost crazy with joy. The price of fireworks is not cheap, but the trouble disappeared after a while. He was disgusted with his own insufficiency to play.

On the contrary, Lu Tingting was older after all, and she was embarrassed to play with her cousin's things, so she said with a smile: "Xiaoming, play with it by yourself, I'll watch from the side, don't burn yourself."

Lu Qingqing didn't care, and took Lu Qiming to set off the fireworks together, while muttering: "Grandma didn't even give the New Year's money today, it's really biased, Lu Xue never played with us, hehe, I don't think of her as my sister either."

Lu Xue was born a month later than Lu Qingqing. When Huang Mei was confinement, the old lady came to see her, but when Zhang Yu took care of her for a month, Huang Mei was angry for more than ten years.

Lu Qiming actually didn't feel much about Grandma Lu's partiality, she just smiled when she heard this, but Lu Tingting knew that the younger generation said bad things about the elders, and it would be bad if someone overheard her, so she gave her sister a glare, and Lu Qingqing vomited Tongue, continue to play wildly.

After staying outside for a while, Lu Qiming felt bored, so he took the little wolf back first. When he got home, Qian Jinhua and Lu Dashan were watching the gala. It was strange to see him coming back so soon, and asked: " What's the matter, are the fireworks over?"

Lu Qiming went inside and sat down, and then said: "Well, it's pretty nice, there are children outside, I don't like it."

After hearing this, Qian Jinhua smiled and said, "I see you play well with Gu Cheng, why don't other kids like it?"

Thinking of Gu Cheng, Lu Qiming thought secretly that this year's New Year's Eve, he wondered if Gu Cheng's father had come back, if not, he would have to be at home alone, thinking about it made him feel pitiful.

"Gu Cheng doesn't know how to chirp endlessly." Lu Qiming said with a sniff.When Qian Jinhua heard it, she became very happy. She felt that her son hated the noise, and she didn't know who it was. In summer, she ran all day without a trace, going up the mountain and down the water.

However, it is good for a boy to be skinny. As long as his life safety is not involved, Qian Jinhua usually doesn't say anything about him: "Then you watch TV with your parents."

Lu Qiming nodded, and the Lu family couple next to him laughed out loud, but he felt very bored, and the people on the TV were too naive, and he couldn't catch any laughs at all.

For a monk without a sense of humor, watching the gala is really torture. Lu Qiming pursed his lips, glanced at the Lu family couple, and said, "Mom and Dad, I'll go out and play for a while."

Qian Jinhua thought that the child couldn't stay at home, and everyone was running around outside in the [-]th year, but she didn't care and let him go.

Lu Qiming's eyes lit up, and he ran out again with the little wolf. This time, instead of playing with the group of children, he ran straight towards the town.From Changwan Village to the town, it takes more than ten minutes to ride a bicycle, or an hour to walk slowly, but Lu Qiming ran fast, and with his physical fitness, he arrived in the town in more than ten minutes.

Gu Cheng's home is in the new urban area. The houses here have been built one after another over the years, and they look relatively new.It's New Year's Eve, and many people in the town are also setting off fireworks downstairs to talk, which seems to be very lively.

Lu Qiming came to the town frequently, found Gu Cheng's building with familiarity, and went upstairs.

When the doorbell rang, Gu Cheng was lying on the sofa watching TV boredly. There was only one gala to watch at this time. Although he had a big color TV at home, which looked much clearer and brighter than Lu's house, Gu Cheng But not at all happy.

At this time yesterday, the old man of his family who was away all year round called. He only said roughly that he could not come back for the New Year this year, asked him if he had enough money, and hung up if he had nothing else.Gu Cheng will no longer be sad because of his father's negligence, but outside the family reunion, it is inevitable to feel a little lonely.When the doorbell rang, he subconsciously thought that his father had returned, and he was a little reluctant when he opened the door.

Unexpectedly, when the door opened, there was a person outside who he had been thinking about day and night, because Lu Qiming was still a little out of breath because of running all the way, with a thin layer of sweat on his forehead, when he saw him coming out, he showed a big smile, laughing She said, "Gu Cheng, I'm here to play with you."

Gu Cheng's eye circles turned red all of a sudden. He was not a crying child since he was a child. He never cried when he was misunderstood, bullied, or even beaten, but at this moment he felt his nose sour for some reason. He just wanted to reach out and hug the person in front of him and cry. In fact, Gu Cheng really hugged Lu Qiming, holding his mouth tightly.

Lu Qiming was taken aback. After all, in his impression, Gu Cheng was not such a coquettish and fragile person, but when he saw the empty living room through the boy, there was no Chinese New Year atmosphere at all. Lu Qiming also understood it. It turned out that his elusive dad hadn't come home.

As a cultivator, he actually doesn't care about the Chinese New Year, but probably because of the influence of the Lu family couple, Lu Qiming feels that Gu Cheng is a bit pitiful at the moment, after all, he is the child he is protecting, and they have been together for half a year. It was inevitable that he felt a little dissatisfied with that irresponsible father in his heart, and secretly thanked himself for coming to take a look, otherwise it would be too pitiful for Gu Cheng to celebrate the New Year alone.

Gu Cheng hugged him and didn't let go, it was because the little wolf waited impatiently at the door, barking twice before waking him up.The boy wiped his cheeks, afraid that Lu Qiming would make fun of him when he saw him crying, so he brought him in.

Seeing Gu Cheng busy taking out the delicious food from the house, Lu Qiming quickly stopped him and said with a smile: "I have to go back soon, why don't we go down and set off the fireworks."

Lu Qiming thought, it seems that other children like to set off fireworks, so Gu Cheng should also like it. Gu Cheng didn't object after hearing it. In the middle of the night, Gu Cheng always sets off fireworks alone, which is a kind of loneliness that others cannot understand.

Lu Qiming looked at the fireworks he brought and the ones that Gu Cheng bought, and said with a smile: "Your ones look very powerful."

Gu Cheng also showed a happy smile, because this year's New Year's Eve, he no longer had to set off the fireworks alone: ​​"I'll let you play, it's very beautiful."

Gu Cheng's fireworks are indeed more beautiful than the ones bought by Qian Jinhua, and even the neighbors around him don't like to buy such expensive ones. Once they are released, they can attract many people's attention.Although the fireworks were beautiful, Gu Cheng only looked at the smiles of the people around him, and the feeling of emptiness just now seemed to have disappeared.

It's just that the beautiful moments can't last long. Lu Qiming was afraid that if he ran out rashly, his parents would worry and would go back after playing for a while. Gu Cheng wanted to keep him, but when he refused to agree, he wanted to send him back, but Lu Qiming How could Qiming agree, waved his hand and left with the little wolf.

Gu Cheng stood downstairs and stared at his back, and soon a person and a dog disappeared from sight. Gu Cheng felt depressed again, and for some reason he became dissatisfied. He wanted Lu Qiming to stay. Being able to accompany him all the time, but he also understands that it is impossible.

Gu Cheng suddenly lowered his head, his hair hanging down covered his eyes, no one could see his expression, after a while, the boy suddenly raised his head, showing a bright smile, bouncing up the stairs as if very happy look.

Lu Qiming over there didn't know the huge impact of his unintentional actions. He was at the fourth level of qi training, and he didn't feel tired after running around the town and village. A group of children were playing like crazy. No one noticed that he disappeared for a while, and the Lu family's parents naturally would not know that their son was so bold.
