After leaving Heshun Mingfu, He Qingrou went to the supermarket on Tianxing Avenue to buy dumpling wrappers and meat. The customs of the north and the south are different, especially in terms of eating. However, eating dumplings in Xiaonian is a common feature in most regions, but there are few families in the south. I know how to roll dumpling wrappers, and I always go to noodle shops to buy them by two.

After shopping and returning to the community, when I got out of the car, I met a neighbor woman surnamed Sun, and she greeted enthusiastically: "Just bought food?"

He Qingrou smiled faintly. Seeing that she had taken a lot of couriers, she stepped forward to help: "Well, let me get some for you, and we happened to go upstairs together."

The woman surnamed Sun waved her hand: "I can do it by myself. There seems to be your courier in the security room, 7-801. It says your friend's name is Lin Nai? The security guard said that the phone can't be reached, so go and get it." .”

They live in No. 1 on the eighth floor of the seventh building, so it is 7-801. Lin Nai should be resting and did not see the express notification text message.He Qingrou responded and went to the security room to pick up the courier, only to find there that the courier was half the height of a person, so heavy that it couldn't be moved at all, and finally had to spend ten yuan to ask someone to help take it home.

There was no one in the living room, the door of the master bedroom was closed tightly, Linnai's cell phone was placed on the coffee table, and there was a computer and a glass of cold water next to it. Just seeing these, one could imagine how this person spent the afternoon.

She walked lightly to the master bedroom, opened the door halfway, and the room was dark with the curtains drawn. Linnai was indeed sleeping, so she closed the door gently, and carried the dishes into the kitchen to tidy up.

I have no time to go to work tomorrow, so I can make dumplings when I have time now.

After working for several years, He Qingrou still knows the basics. After all, it is a family reunion day. Lin Mingqing probably doesn't want to spend it alone. Lin Nai's mood has been a little low these two days. He must have had a fight with Lin Mingqing. Regarding family conflicts, it is very It's hard to tell who's right and who's wrong, because people have different ideas and standpoints, and everyone has their own ideas and concerns.

Seeing many tragedies of coming out, she only hoped that the process would not be so arduous, and it might not be a blessing if it was plain.

After cutting the meat and seasoning, everything was ready, and I started making dumplings. After making more than a dozen dumplings, the sky outside became dark.

It's not yet six o'clock.He Qingrou glanced out of the window, it was almost Chinese New Year, the downstairs was brightly lit, the workers in the community were hanging red lanterns tree by tree, the voices of the workers talking were a bit loud, even on the eighth floor they could be heard clearly , Worrying whether Lin Nai would be woken up, she subconsciously looked back.

It happened that Lin Nai came in sleepily. She was wearing the wrong pajamas. The pink one was He Qingrou's. Because of the inappropriate size, her entire ankle was exposed.

"Go and change your clothes." He Qingrou said while making dumplings. There is no heating in the south room, so wearing it for a while will shake the sieve from the cold.

Lin Nai responded casually, but didn't act. Instead, she washed her hands and went to help. She was quite skilled at making dumplings. He Qingrou was slightly surprised, after all, this person couldn't even stir-fry vegetables.

"My aunt taught me when I was at home," Linnai explained, pinching and turning a fat belly dumpling dexterously, and took another dumpling wrapper, "But we roll the wrappers ourselves."

He Qingrou lowered his head to put the dumplings, and blinked: "Then next time you roll the dumplings for me."

Lin Nai hummed, just woke up, her voice was a little hoarse, and her spirit was also sluggish.He Qingrou turned around and washed her hands, dried them off, went back to her room and took a scarf to tie it on for her, and asked this person to put on a pair of socks first.

Lin Nai was also obedient and did it obediently.

"I went to meet someone today..." He Qingrou said when she saw her come in.

"I know." Lin Nai replied, as soon as He Qingrou said it yesterday, she guessed it, she stood beside He Qingrou, and suddenly grabbed the other's hand.

He Qingrou trembled her eyelashes: "Tomorrow is the new year, do you have any plans?"

"Going to work during the day," Lin Nai said, "accompanying you at night."

He Qingrou raised the corners of her mouth, but did not answer. After a while, she reminded: "Remember to call your family."

She couldn't guess what Lin Mingqing was thinking. He didn't agree to have dinner together. He Qingrou couldn't force it. For other traditional parents, Lin Mingqing was quite polite to her. Of course, this may just be a matter of demeanor. Maybe for Lin Mingqing, outsiders are not worth worrying about at all, as long as he suppresses Lin Nai, that is what He Qingrou fears the most.

This kind of parent is stubborn and tough, and others don't care about it. They feel that their children have been corrected, and that the symptoms and the root cause are cured. They don't worry about the other one causing any trouble.

"Got it." Linnai replied, continuing to help make dumplings.

The two of you are busy working together, and the speed will be much faster, and the package will be finished in ten minutes. He Qingrou tidied up the stove, and suddenly remembered the courier in the living room, so she said, "I've got your courier for you, and it's in the living room."

She didn't know the sender, and she didn't know who sent it.

Lin Nai didn't need to look at it to understand: "My mother sent the New Year's goods."

He Qingrou paused, she and Tang Jinyu hadn't met formally yet, and the other party suddenly sent over so many years of goods...

After thinking about it, it should be sent to Lin Nai.

"She went to work in the UK and didn't have time to come back for the New Year. The things should be sent by the secretary." Lin Nai explained.

He Qingrou understood, and Lin Nai went out to pack up the pile of New Year's goods.

After cooking and arriving in the living room, He Qingrou was stunned for a moment. There were boxes everywhere on the sofa and on the floor. All kinds of dry goods were full of expensive ingredients, and she couldn't even recognize what was there.

Seeing her, Lin Nai handed over two yellow and white boxes: "This one, and the pile over there, are all for you."

He Qingrou was dumbfounded.

Probably because my relationship was not smooth back then, and I left endless regrets due to external obstacles. Tang Jinyu did not insist on Lin Nai's love life at all. He didn't care about men, women, and family conditions. However, as an elder, while caring for his own daughter, he also took care of He Qingrou.

Of course, for her, her career is still more important at present, otherwise she would not have to go abroad to work during the Chinese New Year.She and Lin Mingqing were too respectful to each other, too alienated, not like a husband and wife at all, maybe both of them were workaholics, but the couple were quite satisfied with the status quo.

Lin Nai has long been used to it. There are no elderly people in the Lin family, which lacks the warmth and daily life that an ordinary family should have. In recent years, a family of three seldom get together during New Years and holidays. The way Tang Jinyu expresses his concern is to send something. Still busy, most of the time it was Lin Nai who took the initiative to find him.

He Qingrou put down the dishes and quickly helped them pack up the meals.

She was a little embarrassed to accept Tang Jinyu's things, and spent the whole night thinking about how to return the gift. The elders gave it first, and the younger generation must show something.

Lin Nai didn't care much about this. Before going to bed, she made a phone call from the balcony.

He Qingrou was lying under the quilt playing with her mobile phone, knowing who was on the other end of the line.

The phone call didn't seem to go well, and ended in silence.On the eve of the New Year's Eve, the drizzle came along with the wind, and the wind and rain patted on the cheeks and neck, making people shiver from the cold. Lin Nai shrank, wrapped her coat tightly and entered the house.

He Qingrou sat up and took the warm water bag and handed it over. Lin Nai was afraid of the cold, so she sat on the head of the bed and didn't get into the quilt immediately. He Qingrou was amused, so she quickly asked the man to take off his coat and come in to cover it.

Seeing that Lin Nai's head was densely covered with small raindrops, she was a little helpless. In such a cold day, she didn't know how to go into the house when it was raining. She went to the toilet to get a towel and came back to wipe Lin Nai's hair.

After standing outside for so long, her ears were freezing cold. After wiping her hair, she covered Linnai's ears with her hands.

"It's cold, come in and cover it up." Lin Nai said, pulling her forearm, He Qingrou smiled, and said something in a very low voice, but her ears were covered and she couldn't hear it.

At night, the drizzle had stopped at some point, and the rustling and wind gradually disappeared. In the middle of the sky, a crescent moon slowly emerged, spreading silvery white all over the earth, and a beam of bright moonlight obliquely fell on the thick bedding .

He Qingrou half-closed her eyes and opened her legs. The sweat on her body made her fair skin glow with an alluring luster against the moonlight...

This time, she took the initiative to explore first, and exchanged again after she was tired.

I have to admit that happiness can indeed relieve troubles to a certain extent. When the body bears it, all distracting thoughts will be thrown away by the brain.She chased after the overwhelming feeling, just wanted to hold on to it deeper and longer.

The moon in the sky was in the shape of a hook, and it only appeared for a while, when suddenly a black cloud covered it, which happened to completely cover it, and after a while, the wind blew up, whistling.

There were other voices mixed in with the sound of the wind, but luckily the night was quiet and no one would be heard.

When the first ray of sunlight shone through the window in the early morning of Xiaonian, He Qingrou woke up first, took care of herself, and got up to cook dumplings.

The clear water boiled, and slowly, the white and fat dumplings floated to the surface one by one, and the aroma of the cooked dumplings filled the whole kitchen.I made fifty or sixty dumplings last night, and I would definitely not be able to finish them all in one meal. She cooked twenty of them and put the rest in the refrigerator. The rest can be saved for cooking tomorrow morning.

Lin Nai got up 2 minutes later than her, and after cleaning up, the dumplings were all boiled in the pot.

He Qingrou asked her to look into the pot, while she first fried the chili peppers as a dipping sauce.

Half a bowl of vinegar, half a bowl of hot sauce, which bowl you like to dip in.

With the dumplings, this morning was very warm, and then I went back to the company to be busy.The design department was full of joy today, and the atmosphere was harmonious and harmonious. As they walked all the way to their seats, the colleagues they met all smiled and greeted He Qingrou.

After the new year, holidays, New Year's Eve, and Spring Festival, the rest are good days worthy of joy and celebration. Even Yang Shuncheng has stopped being a demon, and he looks happy all day long.

Vanke Yin quietly stuffed some candy into He Qingrou: "My wife made it, she asked to bring some for you."

He Qingrou noticed that the address had changed.

"Is it going to be cultivated?"

Wanke Yin laughed so hard that his eyes narrowed, and he nodded without dropping his head.

He is getting married, and the long-distance love race has finally reached the end.While He Qingrou was happy for him, she was also envious: "When?"

Vanke Yin rubbed his nose foolishly: "Be engaged on the 5th day of the lunar calendar, treat guests on May 20th, the date set by her family."

"I will definitely give you two big red envelopes." He Qingrou smiled.

"Hey! Thank you, team leader!"

Xiaonian still couldn't stop the coming of overtime. The case he worked on before was a little flawed. He Qingrou had to stay and deal with it. Linnai had a private matter to do, so he left first.

An hour later, the case was settled.When she got home, Lin Nai hadn't come back yet, so she called Father He first.

Probably because of the special day, He's father was very chatty today, talking a lot, even Xie Hongling took the initiative to chat with her for a few minutes, and He Jie interrupted a few words from time to time with the speaker on the phone.

At the end of the chat, He Qingrou struggled for a long while before saying, "Dad,"

Father He happily responded.She froze for a moment, but finished her sentence: "After the new year, I will bring someone back to see you."

There was an instant silence on the other end of the phone.

He Jie knew about Lin Nai long ago, but he didn't dare to tell Father He. Now that He Qingrou said this without any warning, Father He was caught off guard.

The smile on his face disappeared immediately, and he looked at He Jie, who couldn't hide his expression, and looked away embarrassingly.

This stalemate made He Qingrou a little uncomfortable, she walked around in place, and the other end of the phone was still silent.

After a long time, a sigh came from the phone.

"Remember to tell me when you come back."

Then the phone was hung up.

Father He still couldn't accept it, but he was trying to accept it.

She was a little emotional, with mixed feelings in her heart, stood for half a minute, put down her phone and opened the refrigerator to prepare for cooking.

As soon as the refrigerator door was opened, she was stunned—the dumplings in the morning were gone, and when she looked up, the thermos bucket on the refrigerator was also gone.
