Xiangyu

Qiao Yusong always likes to sleep until noon when he is at home during the holidays.This time because of Song Yuqiao, he got up earlier, and he was a little uncomfortable.

10:30, already past the time for breakfast, and far from the time for lunch.

When going downstairs with Song Yuqiao, Qiao Yusong was thinking about what to do during the half morning.Unexpectedly, before he reached the living room, he heard the sound of mahjong playing inside.

Qiao Yusong couldn't help feeling embarrassed, and when he walked into the living room, he was shocked to see Zhou Meiqi sitting at the card table.

He looked at Song Yuqiao in bewilderment, who was also obviously surprised.

Soon, four middle-aged women who were playing cards spotted them.

Aunt Li's eyes lit up, and she said, "Hey, isn't this a great scientist? Pfft, how can I say that he is my mother's son. Happy New Year! Come to find sister Zhou?"

Song Yuqiao saw that Zhou Meiqi was smiling, and it was obvious that she used the smile to cover up her embarrassment.He smiled lightly and said, "Aunt Li, Aunt Zhong, Aunt Xu, Happy New Year. My dad said my mom is here, so I'll come and have a look. I'm friends with Qiao Yusong, so let's stop by and have a chat."

Aunt Zhong praised Zhou Meiqi: "Hey, I am much more polite than when I was a child. Not to mention my sweet mouth, my personality is also cheerful. Really good teaching."

Zhou Meiqi waved her hands nonchalantly, and said, "It's all for people to see, but when I get home, I still have the same bad temper."

"That's better than people before and after not letting parents feel better?" Aunt Li continued to praise.

Xu Aojun listened with a smile, and suddenly asked: "Have you two had breakfast yet? I cooked pumpkin porridge and served it."

"Okay." Qiao Yusong replied, winking at Song Yuqiao.

"Hey, it's fine to go alone, how can there be any reason to let the guests work too?" Xu Aojun called them to stop.

Qiao Yusong sighed inwardly, and said to Song Yuqiao, "Sit down first, I'll serve the porridge."

Even though the two families have no opinion about being together, neither Zhou Meiqi nor Xu Aojun intends to expose their relationship in front of outsiders.

Song Yuqiao understood their difficulties. Since they lied at the beginning, the next step was to continue playing tricks.

He sat at a side table, waiting for his brunch.

Song Yuqiao didn't know that Zhou Meiqi came to play mahjong.He was surprised that Zhou Meiqi would come, because they were at home last night, and when they talked about Qiao Yusong's family, Zhou Meiqi's words somewhat looked down on Qiao Yusong's parents.

Song Yuqiao knew that most of her contempt came from the fact that she had a son who was doing well.Therefore, neither he nor Song Zhishan commented on her remarks, and she held back her stomach. Finally, when Song Yuqiao was about to leave, she insisted on stuffing Korean ginseng and bird's nest into his hands, saying it was more decent.

Song Yuqiao guessed that Qiao Yusong's mother probably didn't like Zhou Meiqi too much.This is his intuition, he is not sure.

In short, the two women are desperate to save face and suffer.However, this made Song Yuqiao and the others much more relaxed.

Not long after, Qiao Yusong went upstairs with a whole pot of pumpkin porridge.

Song Yuqiao watched him leave after putting down the porridge, and quickly asked, "Why are you going?"

"I didn't take the tableware." Qiao Yusong replied, made a gesture for him to sit still, then turned and went downstairs.

Song Yuqiao intended to help, but seeing the undoubted expression in Qiao Yusong's eyes, he had no choice but to hold back.

"Auntie, I brought all the porridge, one bowl for each person?" Qiao Yusong began to serve the porridge, "It's cold, drink the porridge to keep you warm."

Xu Aojun answered: "Hey, yes, one bowl per person. I planted this pumpkin myself on the roof. It's all natural and pollution-free! Try it, try it!"

The three aunts all laughed and said that their family members were being polite, and happily took the pumpkin porridge from Qiao Yusong's hand one by one.

Aunt Zhong praised: "Hey, this is the flight attendant of the airline! The demeanor and movement of serving the porridge are very gentlemanly and elegant!"

Qiao Yusong could only force a smile when he heard it, and said, "Be careful of burning."

"Look, this is really—" Aunt Zhong gave a thumbs up.

Qiao Yusong caught sight of Zhou Meiqi touching the cards with a smile from the corner of her eye, and immediately regretted in her heart—he should serve Zhou Meiqi porridge first!Sure enough, when he looked at Xu Aojun, he had already received her sharp gaze.

Song Yuqiao looked at him delivering porridge with his chin resting on his chin. He always felt that this scene seemed familiar. Looking back carefully, he found that the day they first met, Qiao Yusong did the same, and gave each of the aunts a bowl of noodles.

Thinking of this, Song Yuqiao raised the corners of his mouth.He looked up at Qiao Yusong who came back to serve porridge, and seeing that the latter was worried, he asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

Qiao Yusong replied quietly: "I forgot to serve your mother first."

Hearing this, Song Yuqiao was taken aback.

After filling a bowl of porridge, Qiao Yusong deliberately scooped up two pieces of pumpkin and buried them in the porridge, and respectfully sent them to Zhou Meiqi, saying, "Aunt Zhou, have some porridge."

"Thank you." Zhou Meiqi smiled at him.

Song Yuqiao looked at Xu Aojun, and found that there was a faint dissatisfaction on her face, and he couldn't help but be surprised.

Song Yuqiao filled two bowls of porridge and put them on the table.

When Qiao Yusong came back, he said, "Let's eat."

"Well, good." Qiao Yusong was about to sit down on the seat with his back to the poker table, but after a moment of hesitation, he sat across from Song Yuqiao.

Song Yuqiao didn't know why at first, but soon discovered that the reason why Qiao Yusong sat like this was for the convenience of observing the aunts.

Remembering that not long ago he said that he existed to keep Qiao Yusong from being scolded, Song Yuqiao felt depressed.

While eating porridge, Qiao Yusong observed the aunts, especially Zhou Meiqi and Xu Aojun, who were always ready to help them whenever they saw any needs.

However, he soon discovered that Song Yuqiao, who was sitting across from him, was drinking porridge without saying a word.He was very surprised, and while the aunts were not paying attention, he kicked Song Yuqiao's leg under the table and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Did you get scolded that day?" Song Yuqiao asked.

Hearing this, Qiao Yusong was stunned for a moment, and asked with an embarrassed smile: "When?"

"We're at the street crossing, and I'll send you back that day." Song Yuqiao saw that he knew why and asked, and said displeased.

Qiao Yusong was stunned, and wanted to say a few casual words to fool him, but Song Yuqiao's expression clearly did not allow him to perfunctory.He sighed helplessly in his heart, and said, "Didn't you just say that it's all over?"

Hearing this, Song Yuqiao took a deep breath and managed to hold back the swearing.

Qiao Yusong looked at him amusedly, and said with relief: "It's all over. Besides, I am very satisfied seeing you angry now. At least, it proves that you are a child who can criticize himself."

Song Yuqiao was in a fit of anger, he was taken aback after hearing this, and said with a broken smile, "What the hell."

He shrugged indifferently, and lowered his head to drink the porridge.

"At this age, and you have become so good again, you don't need to act according to their faces anymore." Song Yuqiao reminded unwillingly.

"I'm used to it. People's habits are hard to change, isn't it? Besides, I will refute when I am overwhelmed, but it is relatively rare." Qiao Yusong thought for a while and said, "You are not what I am used to. I often lose my temper with you. Thank you for your hard work."

Song Yuqiao couldn't laugh or cry when he heard this.

"Oh, I'm going home to cook." Aunt Zhong suddenly got up with her mobile phone and waved to her poker friends, "No more, no more, continue tomorrow."

The three poker friends complained again and again, only to blame her for her hard work all her life, first cooking for her husband and children, and then for her daughter-in-law and grandson.

Aunt Zhong said she had no choice but insisted on leaving regardless of her poker friends’ persuasion, and said, “Hey? Xiaoqiao will fight for Auntie? Look at these aunts, the level of the great scientist's playing cards!"

Song Yuqiao was speechless, but Aunt Li was also helping. He received Zhou Meiqi's urging gaze, so he got up to take Aunt Zhong's place.

"Hee hee, then I'm leaving. Hey, you mother and son, don't make money together!" Aunt Zhong laughed.

Zhou Meiqi scolded with a smile: "Go home and cook your meals! Work hard!"

Aunt Zhong laughed like a silver bell, and left happily with her bag on her back.

After not sitting at the poker table for many years, Song Yuqiao discovered that the poker table had been changed, and it was the one that could shuffle the cards automatically.

Waiting for the cards to come out, the three women began to gossip about Aunt Zhong's family.

Song Yuqiao was not surprised, turned around and saw Qiao Yusong silently packing up the tableware, and a thought occurred to him, interrupting the conversation of the aunts: "Aunt Xu."

Xu Aojun smiled at him, and there was a little nervousness in the smile.

"I haven't played cards for a long time, and I don't even know how to read them. Can I be with Qiao Yusong?" Song Yuqiao said, turning to look at the surprised Qiao Yusong.

Xu Aojun glanced at Zhou Meiqi, and suddenly smiled generously: "Why not? Hey, Xiao Song, sit next to Xiaoqiao. You are not allowed to peek at Aunt Li and Aunt Zhou's cards, do you understand?"

Qiao Yusong put down the bowl, moved a stool, and sat down beside Song Yuqiao.He kept silent, watching Song Yuqiao take cards one by one, his movements were indeed not very proficient.However, when the cards were finished, Qiao Yusong watched Song Yuqiao fix the cards. In the end, he was so surprised that he almost cried out.

It was the first time he saw it and he listened to the cards after he had finished his cards.

"I'll treat you to milk tea with the winning money." Seeing his happy face, Song Yuqiao whispered in his ear.
