Da Qiao heard him call her little friend, and for some reason, her heart skipped another beat: "Brother Huo Chi, what did you give me?"
Huo Chi's eyes swept across her pink and fair cheeks, and he pursed his lips and said, "Don't you know when you open it?"
Big Joe said "Oh", and reached out to take the box in his hand.
If other people saw this scene, they might think that Da Qiao's attitude of accepting gifts was too natural, but for Da Qiao, she was already used to it.
When Huo Chi was in the production team back then, even if he had no money, he would give her zodiac signs made of hay. She still keeps those little things. For them, giving gifts is a common thing, and they don't need it at all. Twitchy.
The fingertips touched by her left a soft and smooth touch, Huo Chi rubbed them slowly with his fingers a few times.
Da Qiao opened the box and saw a Rolex watch lying inside, with a silver steel bracelet and a black rotating bezel, which was exquisite and majestic.
It's just this style... She seems to have seen it somewhere.
The next moment, she turned her head abruptly and set her gaze on Huo Chi's wrist.
I saw that he was wearing a Rolex men's watch on his wrist, the style was exactly the same as the one on her hand, but the size was larger.
Seeing her looking over, Huo Chi said with reddish ear tips, "This is a Rolex Lady Datejust watch. It has functions such as waterproof and a date window. It is very suitable for girls to wear."
Now the watches on the market are of the same style for both men and women, and many brands have not launched watches for women. However, this Rolex presented by Huo Chi is small and exquisite, and it is indeed more suitable for girls to wear.
Da Qiao pursed the corner of his mouth, revealing a small dimple at the corner of his mouth, took out the watch and handed it over, "Brother Huo Chi, help me put it on."
Huo Chi stared at her dimples for a few seconds, then took the watch and put it on her wrist. The silver watch chain made her wrist whiter.
Da Qiao turned his wrist over and over to look at it, with a smile on the corner of his mouth and said: "Thank you Brother Huo Chi, I like this gift very much!"
Her lips are as pink and tender as petals, and the two small pear dimples are shallow, like two glasses of sweet wine.
Huo Chi stretched out his hand and gently stroked her hair, and said in a low voice, "Then you will wear it from now on."
Da Qiao nodded obediently: "Well, I won't take it off."
Huo Chi looked at the identical watches of the two, and the corners of his mouth curled up accordingly.
Qiao's family found the watch on Da Qiao's hand that night, and they were shocked when they realized it was a Rolex.
Rolex is an imported watch, expensive and few in quantity. If there is no channel, even if you have money, you may not be able to buy it.
The watch in Da Qiao's hand should be worth more than one thousand yuan.
Qiao Zhenjun hesitated and said, "Little Chi, isn't this watch expensive? When uncle gives you the money, treat it as if uncle bought it from you!"
Huo Chi said calmly: "Uncle, don't be polite to me. This is a gift from me for the college entrance examination to Niannian. How can I take back what I gave away?"
Qiao Zhenjun couldn't insist on hearing the words, but this gift was a bit too expensive.
Xue Anxu looked at the watch in his sister's hand, envious: "When I am admitted to university, Dad, can you buy me a watch as a reward? I want to be exactly like my sister."
Before Qiao Zhenjun could speak, Huo Chi said, "That's for a lady."
Xue Anxu paused for a moment, then his eyes fell on his wrist again: "Then buy the same one as yours."
Huo Chi chuckled lightly and said, "No way, your wrists are too fat, and wearing silver ones will make you look even fatter. Black ones are suitable for you."
"Really?" Xue Anxu raised his wrist and looked at it, and found that his wrist was indeed a little fleshy. He sighed and said, "That's fine, I will buy black ones from now on."
Huo Chi nodded in satisfaction.
It took him a long time to find such a style that is the same for both men and women. It's fine for him and Da Qiao to wear it together. As for the others...
As long as you don't look like them, you can wear whatever you want!
When Da Qiao heard their conversation, his eyes fell on his younger brother's wrist, and he felt that his younger brother's wrist was actually not as fat as Huo Chi said.

The news that Da Qiao was admitted to the top spot in the provincial college entrance examination quickly spread throughout Yunlai Town.
The next day, the Shen family and the Qi family came over to congratulate.
Qin Xiaomei blushed with joy, hugged Da Qiao and kept rubbing it: "Why isn't such a smart child my own? Lin Hui, I really envy you!"
Lin Hui looked at Da Qiao and smiled softly, her eyes were full of doting and pride: "You don't have to envy me, your Tianyou and Tianze are also very smart? In two years, they can also give you the number one in the college entrance examination return!"
Speaking of her son, Qin Xiaomei also showed a proud look: "Tianyou's grades are not bad, Tianze's attention is not as focused as his brother's. People say that raising a child at the age of one hundred will cause ninety-nine worries. This is absolutely true!"
Lin Hui followed her words and asked, "What's the matter? Why is Hao Duan Duan sighing?"
Qin Xiaomei said: "I don't know what happened to Tianyou recently, I ate a lot less than usual, and I lost a lot of weight!"
Lin Hui frowned and said, "Tianyou seemed to have lost a lot of weight just now, did you take it to the hospital for a checkup?"
Qin Xiaomei: "Go, the doctor said there's nothing wrong!"
Da Qiao, who was hugged in her arms, didn't know why, but suddenly remembered what her cousin said last time that he was too fat.
Could it be because of this that Shen Tianyou didn't eat
Shen Tianyou, who was outside at this time, was running back and forth. Although he was sweating profusely from exhaustion, he had no intention of stopping.
He must lose weight, his sister Ying is still waiting for him to lose weight!
In addition to Shen's family coming over, people from the neighbors and people they knew came to congratulate Qiao's house one after another. The threshold of Qiao's house was stepped on from morning to night, and people kept coming.
Two days later, the director of the County Education Bureau also brought people over in person.
He came here to give money to Da Qiao!
In recent years, Baocheng County has been in the education circle of the entire provincial capital, not to mention the top scorer in the college entrance examination, and it is not even ranked in the name. Many people have to think about Baocheng County before they hear it.
Now there is a sudden top scorer in the college entrance examination, which not only makes Baocheng County a big hit with the leaders, but also makes it much easier for them to rise up in the future.
Therefore, the county leaders are very happy.
When the leader is happy, the reward will be given out very happily.
This time, in addition to the education bureau of the provincial capital, there are also rewards from the county, town and school, all of which add up to more than 1,000 yuan!
Although the standard of living has improved in the past few years, one thousand yuan is not a small amount, and many people's savings are not so much!
In order to encourage everyone to pay attention to education, the number of rewards was specially written in this interview. After reading the interview in the newspaper, everyone became more envious and their eyes turned red.
One thousand yuan!
Who says reading is useless
Who says a daughter is a loser
If anyone dares to say such a thing, everyone dares to throw the newspaper in that person's face, and let him open his eyes and take a good look!
With such a publicity, when the new school starts in September, the school has many more children to report, especially the number of girls has increased several times compared to previous years.
But that's another story.
Qiao Xiuzhi and Xue Chuan set off to travel on the third day after Da Qiao finished the college entrance examination.
Originally, they wanted to wait until the results of the college entrance examination came out before going, but Da Qiao told them not to wait, and they set off after thinking about it.
It's just that they wanted to come back to celebrate Da Qiao when the results came out, so they didn't go far, so they walked around the province.
As soon as the results of the college entrance examination came out, they called back immediately. When they heard that Da Qiao was the number one in the college entrance examination, the two were very happy and said that they would come home immediately.
When they got home, Qiao Zhenmin brought his daughter Qiao Dongwan, and Qiao Donghe brought his fiancé Luo Junliang back to the town one after another.
The two uncles and nephews came back this time with the same purpose—to get married.
Since Qiao Zhenmin confessed his love to Chu Shengmei last year, the two have been in contact.
At first Chu Shengmei was indeed not ready to accept a new relationship, but as the two got along, Qiao Zhenmin's thoughtfulness and gentleness, like drizzle, infiltrated her dry heart little by little.
Over the past year, Qiao Zhenmin has delivered medicines to her thousands of miles away, bought her gifts for her birthdays during Chinese New Years and holidays, and every time he never forgot to buy a copy for Xiaomi Bao.
She had thought about it before, if she wanted to remarry, she would definitely find someone who could accept Xiaomi Bao. If the other party couldn't love Xiaomi Bao as her own daughter, she would rather not marry again.
After more than a year of "underground" dating, Chu Shengmei was finally touched by Qiao Zhenmin. This time, the two of them came back from Nanshan County just to mention their marriage to their families.
Qiao Zhenmin's side is easier to deal with, and his parents will definitely not object, so he only needs to persuade his daughter Qiao Dongwan to be fine.
But Chu Shengmei's side is more tricky. If you think about it with your toes, her in-laws will definitely object fiercely.
However, the two had already made up their minds that no matter how many obstacles there were in front of them, they would overcome difficulties and stay together.
As for Qiao Donghe, that's another question.
According to the plan, Qiao Donghe should marry Luo Junliang at the end of the year or next year, but both of them are in their twenties, and once they rolled together, they rolled together.
After rolling the sheets, Qiao Donghe was so ashamed and angry that she never let Luo Junliang touch her again, but both of them were inexperienced and didn't know how to use contraception afterwards, so Qiao Donghe fell for it.
Unlike later generations, people these days are still very conservative. If someone gets pregnant before marriage, it will be regarded as a lowly and shameless act.
Once it gets out, many units will not accept them, and the world will criticize them, even if they are unmarried couples.
The two were terrified, and Qiao Donghe almost fainted from crying.
After finally appeasing Qiao Donghe, the two young people who had just tasted the forbidden fruit hurriedly bought train tickets to go back to their hometown.
Although Qiao Donghe's parents are both in Beijing, for her to live, they can't give her a sense of security at all.
Especially her mother, if she was told that she was pregnant out of wedlock, she wouldn't know what harsh words she would say. Although her father has a good temper, he is not a person with his own opinions.
So after much deliberation, she decided to go back to Yunlai Town to find her grandfather and grandmother. Only they can give her a sense of security, and only they can help her get through this difficult time.
—
Qiao Xiuzhi and Xue Chuan agreed to marry Chu Shengmei after hearing what their youngest son said.
As for Qiao Dongwan's matter, Qiao Xiuzhi said: "Dongwan should have discovered about your relationship with Shengmei this year, but now that you are going to get married, you should discuss it with her."
"As for Shengmei's parents-in-law, you can give courtesy first and then soldiers. What they are most worried about is that no one will take care of them when they get old, and the surname Xiaomi Bao. As long as you promise these two things, they should agree. If they use Xiaomi Bao to make If it is a threat, we will talk about it later."
Qiao Zhenmin nodded and left.
Although he guessed that his parents would not object, he still wanted to ask for their permission in advance.
Coming out of the main room, he went to Da Qiao's room to find his daughter.
Since Qiao Zhenmin went to Nanshan County to run a transportation company, he transferred his and his daughter's household registration there, and Qiao Dongwan naturally transferred there to study.
Because Qiao Dongwan hadn't come back for several months, at this time Qiao Dongwan was nestling in Da Qiao's room, and the two sisters hugged each other intimately and whispered.
Qiao Zhenmin didn't go in directly, but stood by the window and knocked on the window lattice: "Dong Wan, Dad has something to tell you, can you come out?"
Qiao Dongwan responded, then turned to Da Qiao and said, "Sister, wait for me, I'll be back soon."
Da Qiao pinched her face: "Go, I'll go to the kitchen and get two bowls of ice."
Qiao Dongwan pursed her lips and left with a smile.
The ingredients of the ice bowl include almonds, fresh lotus root, walnut kernels, fresh lotus seeds, water chestnut and fruit. After making it, put crushed ice on the bottom of the bowl, and then sprinkle sugar to form an ice bowl.
The ice bowl is refreshing and cold, with a strong and sweet fruity aroma, which is most suitable for summer.
Ice bowls are one of the famous spots in Beijing. Huo Chi took her there to eat when she went to Beijing for the first year.
Da Qiao went to the kitchen to get everyone's share, just squatted down to clean the ingredients, when the top of his head suddenly went dark.
She looked up and saw Huo Chi standing at the kitchen door.
He stood with the backlight, wearing a white collared short-sleeved shirt on his upper body, which was wet on his strong torso, and his lower body was blue long pants with white stripes on both sides. His legs were long and strong, and his short black hair was stuck to his forehead due to sweat. revealing his deep eyes.
So lovely!
Three words popped out of Da Qiao's heart, and his palm-sized face blushed twice: "Brother Huo Chi, didn't you go to play with An Jie and An Xu? Why did you come back so soon?"
Huo Chi came in and knelt down in front of her, staring at her face and said, "Why is your face so red?"
Da Qiao seemed to be stealing small animals that were caught by someone, and some dared not look him in the eyes: "No."
"No?" Huo Chi raised his eyebrows, raised his hand to touch her red face and said, "You're almost red ass, why don't you say no?"
His fingertips were slightly cold, and when they touched her face suddenly, Da Qiao's heart trembled, but his hands left quickly.
Huo Chi suddenly said again: "Child Qiao Niannian, I'm thirsty, please pour me a glass of water."
Da Qiao pouted and said, "Brother Huo Chi, I'm already seventeen years old, not a kid."
Even so, she obediently went to pour a glass of water.
Huo Chi took the water, tilted his neck slightly in front of her, and drank it. The sweat on his forehead rolled down his face, dripped down his chin and onto his clothes.
Da Qiao looked at his rolling Adam's apple, and suddenly... felt a little thirsty.
Huo Chi stopped drinking water, looked at her with eyes as deep as ink and said, "Qiao Niannian, why are you staring at me all the time?"
The four eyes are facing each other.
Da Qiao felt his cheeks getting hotter, subconsciously denied: "...No, I didn't stare at you."
After she finished speaking, she lowered her head in a panic, grabbing a handful of lotus seeds in the water basin indiscriminately.
She squeezed the lotus seeds in her hand, and it turned into powder immediately...
Embarrassingly capitalized.
Huo Chi lowered his eyes following her movements, and the corners of his mouth slightly curled up: "You have blushed since you lied since you were a child, should I go get a mirror and let you take a good look at your face?"
Big Joe lowered his head even lower, as if turning into a mimosa, shyly closing the leaves.
Huo Chi glanced at her pink and red earlobe, stretched out his hand and twisted it, and said, "Even the earlobe is completely red, so you were looking at me just now, right?"
His cold hands pinched her warm earlobe, making her tremble uncontrollably.
She raised her head, looked at him with big misty eyes blinking, with a pitiful look: "Brother Huo Chi, I really didn't..."
Huo Chi met her beautiful and moist almond eyes, and his heart skipped a beat: "...I, I'll go change and come back to help you."
After speaking, he stood up, turned around and left in a hurry.
Da Qiao's eyes followed his back, and he didn't come back to his senses until he could no longer see anyone.
She touched her hot cheeks and whimpered like a small animal: "What's wrong with me?"
Ever since Brother Huo Chi came in, her eyes seemed to be not her own, and she couldn't help looking at him all the time.
Brother Huo Chi was covered in sweat, she thought it looked good.
Brother Huo Chi drinks water, she thinks it looks good.
She still thinks Huo Chi's brother's back looks good.
Woo... something is wrong with her! !
