Xia Yitong and the dean were in the room, while the three members of the Lu family were making dumplings outside. Lu Yunzhang was rolling the dough, while two people were wrapping the stuffing. Lu Yinbing's performance today was very different from her usual level. Her mother had already made three, but she was still kneading the one in her hand, with a thoughtful look on her face.
Liu Xinmin said, "Are you an old hen sitting on eggs?"
Lu Yunzhang laughed out loud, but Liu Xinmin glared at him, so he quickly lowered his head and continued rolling the dough.
Lu Yinbing raised her head, glanced at her mother, and released the dumpling that she had been ravaging for a minute. She had just thought of putting the diamond ring in the dumpling, but the risk seemed too great.
How can she be sure that Xia Yitong will eat the dumpling? Even if she marks it, such as putting cinnabar on it, to ensure that the dumpling is served in Xia Yitong's bowl, how can she be sure that Xia Yitong will chew it instead of swallowing it directly? What if she doesn't swallow it and gets her teeth scratched? Diamonds are so hard, it must hurt her teeth.
Even if none of these things happened, Lu Yinbing looked down at the chive stuffing on the plate. Would Xia Yitong still wear a diamond ring that smelled like chives? Anyway, it would definitely be a little off-putting for me. Just thinking about it made me feel uncomfortable.
Lu Yinbing took a piece of dumpling wrapper from her father, held it in her palm, dipped her fingers in water and smeared the edge, her mind wandering.
By the way, aren't those scenes in TV and movies in the past where a man hides a diamond ring in various foods, waits for the heroine to eat it, and then proposes to her, and the heroine is moved to tears, really just tricking children? Who would learn such a stupid method
Liu Xinmin said: "The chicks are all born."
Lu Yinbing said angrily: "Oh my god, can't you just let me think about something?"
Liu Xinmin: "Sure, make the dumplings first, or tell us what you're thinking. You have a lot of bad intentions."
Lu Yinbing: "Who has bad intentions? I am just thinking about my lifelong event."
The two parents' eyes lit up at the same time and they stopped what they were doing.
"..." Lu Yinbing rolled his eyes and said, "How much do you plan to offer as a betrothal gift?"
Lu Yunzhang: "Well, we have discussed this..."
Liu Xinmin made a loud "hush" sound, and Lu Yunzhang stopped talking and looked at Liu Xinmin. Lu Yinbing also looked at her mother. Liu Xinmin said unhappily, "You haven't even started yet, why are you asking this?"
Lu Yinbing was shocked. Her parents had already considered the betrothal gift. Was she a little slow? They had been dating for more than a year from last year to this year. It was almost time.
She smiled: "Nothing."
Soon there was a stroke.
She calmed down and focused on making dumplings at a very fast speed. Liu Xinmin poked Lu Yunzhang's elbow and asked in a low voice: "Why do I feel like there's something wrong with her?"
Lu Yunzhang said: "She brought up this topic for no reason, there must be a reason."
Liu Xinmin: "What's the reason?"
Lu Yunzhang said two words into her ear, and then Liu Xinmin looked dazed. Lu Yinbing looked up from her busy schedule and saw that her mother's chopsticks were poking the dumpling skin in her hand without any filling in it.
Lu Yinbing seized the opportunity and fought back: "Are you an old hen sitting on eggs?"
In response, Liu Xinmin knocked her on the forehead with the end of her chopsticks: "I'm hugging you, why are you so proud?"
Lu Yinbing smiled and said, "I was wrong. I will never change."
She didn't know that her thoughts had already been seen through by her experienced parents. While making dumplings in the kitchen, they were already discussing where to hold the wedding and whether they needed to immigrate. Lu Yunzhang said that this should be decided by the couple themselves and they had no right to worry about it, so the topic returned to how much the betrothal gift should be and who should be the guests to watch the ceremony, and the discussion was in full swing.
During this time, Lu Yinbing went to knock on Xia Yitong's door and told them that they had twenty minutes left for dinner. The two agreed, and continued to talk with a smile about Xia Yitong's secret love life. Lu Yinbing wanted to go in and listen, but Xia Yitong used the excuse that "I'm embarrassed to talk about it when you're here" and pushed her out shyly.
She went to look for her parents again. Before she entered the house, as soon as she reached the kitchen door, her parents, who were chatting in the kitchen and had a disagreement, stopped immediately. Liu Xinmin opened the door and showed a hostile look on her face: "What are you doing? Go play with your phone."
Lu Yinbing: "I..."
Liu Xinmin: "What are you talking about? Go find your partner. You've got a wife and you've forgotten your mother."
Lu Yinbing: “…”
She looked at the closed kitchen door on this side, and the closed room door on the other side. She was suddenly overwhelmed with sadness. She walked to the living room accompanied by the music she had composed, "I have no fragrance of flowers, no height of trees, I am a little grass that no one knows about", and let her mother on the sofa hug her tightly.
I pretended to be dead for five minutes and no one noticed.
If it weren't for the fact that today is New Year's Day, she, Lu Xiaodingdang, would have run away from home and traveled all over the world!
Lu Yinbing v:
It's New Year's Eve again, happy New Year's Eve, still no selfies, this time there's not even a dining table, and you didn't sleep with me [smile]
Looking at the fans below who were acting cute, jumping up and down, and begging for abuse, Lu Yinbing took a winter date from the fruit plate on the table and nibbled it. She was in a bad mood now, and only this group of "fake fans" could bring her a little warmth.
The relationship between stars and fans is a very complicated one. Lu Yinbing is an actress, but in the current business environment, she is also a star. It's just that she has the ability and doesn't need to please fans like most stars do. She can just be herself. But we have to admit that she sometimes relies on these fans. You can say it's vanity, everyone has vanity. You can say anything else, people live in the secular world and can't exist apart from the crowd. Who doesn't like the feeling of being the center of attention
Thinking about the four remaining people at home who ignored her, Lu Yinbing felt that the fans who were still checking her Weibo on New Year's Eve were true fans. She softened her heart, so she raised her phone, took a picture of herself, and posted a new Weibo.
Lu Yinbing v:
Happy New Year's Eve, I wish you all a happy New Year every year, love you [heart][picture]
The comments were written like this:
Director of the Ice House: Selfie? I don’t believe it, it’s fake!!! [Screaming Chicken.gif]
It's your army: I seem to have seen a fake movie queen, was my account hacked? [doge]
Mahou Soju: Hello everyone, I'm new here, can I just refresh the formation? It's fake, it's all fake! [Marmot screaming.gif]
It's your army: ls, you're bullshitting. Last year I saw you writing a petition in blood asking for a selfie, and this year you posted a selfie and you're pretending to be a newcomer [对他.jpg]
Lushui Qianshan: Terrible, I am the real newcomer, what is going on? ? ? Trembling.jpg
It's your army: Come on~ act up~ Anyway, there's~ plenty of time~
…
Lu Yinbing scrolled through the posts from top to bottom and finally deleted the post in anger. She shouldn't have had any illusions about her fans. She still didn't feel relieved after deleting the post, so she pulled out a picture from her emoticon package that looked like a chicken, but Xia Yitong had clearly explained to her that it was not a chicken but a pigeon or a parrot, and posted it on Weibo.
You guys forced me to do this. I won’t take selfies anymore [Fake, all fake.jpg]
The fans wailed in confusion and knelt in front of the keyboards in unison.
Lu Yinbing had no time to pay attention, because she heard the sound of the door opening. She thought that Xia Yitong must have missed her and came out to find her! Lu Yinbing turned off her phone in a flash, fell on the sofa, pretending to be asleep, frowned slightly, looked weak, and looked pitiful.
It was more serious than falling down and needing kisses and hugs to get up, because she didn't even have a blanket to cover herself.
The dumplings and other dishes were just out of the pot. Liu Xinmin ordered Lu Yunzhang to come out and call the guests to eat, and asked Lu Yinbing to serve the dishes. Lu Yunzhang was stunned when he saw the sofa, and turned around to call Liu Xinmin.
Liu Xinmin wiped her hands on her apron, walked out while asking "What's wrong?", and happened to meet the eyes of the two guests. The four of them turned their eyes to the sofa.
On the New Year's Eve when the whole family was reunited - it was already dark now - the two of them chatted happily together, leaving Lu Yinbing alone. Both sides thought that Lu Yinbing was with the other side, so they drove her away, and finally she fell asleep miserably on the sofa.
Although Lu Yinbing is actually 29 years old this year, she will be 30 after her birthday next year. But in the imagination of her "drama-god" parents, Lu Yinbing is even more miserable than the little match girl. In Xia Yitong's mind, Lu Yinbing is a baby who needs to be cared for and cannot bear any grievance. To be precise, she cannot bear to see Lu Yinbing suffer any grievance, and guilt suddenly surges over her.
No one spoke during the whole process. The two sides looked at each other. Mr. and Mrs. Lu took a step back first, and Xia Yitong took a few steps forward, walked to the edge of the sofa, bent down, and gently patted Lu Yinbing's face with the back of his hand.
"It's time to eat, wake up."
That's it? The three parents frowned at the same time.
Xia Yitong changed direction, with her back facing the three people watching from behind. She almost pressed her whole body against Lu Yinbing's face, blocking her line of sight. She held her hand and shook it gently: "Let's eat, Teacher Lu."
Lu Yinbing hummed twice in a "pretentious" manner, but did not wake up.
Xia Yitong had no choice but to force her to get up. Lu Yinbing then opened her eyes and said in a low voice: "You didn't even kiss me."
"Later—" Xia Yitong looked embarrassed.
Before she could finish her words, Lu Yinbing had already hugged her neck, with his shoulders suspended in the air, and kissed her lips relentlessly.
Xia Yitong couldn't struggle, nor did she not struggle. She couldn't respond, but she couldn't respond because Lu Yinbing was biting her tightly. This position was not suitable for kissing. She also had to support Lu Yinbing to prevent her from falling off the sofa. It was very difficult.
The three parents relaxed their brows at the same time.
Lu Yunzhang clapped his hands and interrupted the loving couple with a smile: "It's time to eat."
