Xiaoyanzi wears floral clothes and comes here every spring. I ask Yanzi why you are here? Swallow said: Take care of yourself.
The spring is cold, and the trees on both sides of the street are blooming with new shoots, green and green, which makes people feel happy.
Tong Xuelv deliberately got off work early today, and when he got home, he told Tong Jiaming, "Help me deliver these two cakes to Fang's and Wen's houses."
Tong Jiaming didn't suspect him, so he got on his bicycle with something and went out.
As soon as Tong Jiaming left, Tong Jiaxin came over and said mysteriously, "Sister, what are we going to do next?"
Tong Xuelu: "You help with the housework at home, and then paste the paper-cut made by Grandma Shen on it."
"Yes!"
Tong Jiaxin gave a military salute, then went to clean the living room with a broom.
Tong Mianmian and Moon Cake ran up behind him, one dog and one dog, like two little tails.
Tong Xuelv went to the kitchen to start making dinner.
She washed and shredded the tenderloin, added egg white, starch and soy sauce and stirred well, and cut the dried tofu into small pieces.
After the pot is hot, throw the shredded pork in, and immediately pick up the meat as soon as it changes color, then add the sweet noodle sauce and white sugar, stir fry over low heat, wait for small bubbles to appear, and put the shredded pork in again.
After frying, add shredded cucumber and dry tofu, and a plate of shredded pork with Jing sauce is ready.
Then she made cold pig ears and two other side dishes, and then made red date cake and hollow sugar cake.
When Shen Wanrong came in, Tong Xuelu was making candy canes.
She added water to the flour, stirred while pouring, added butter and kneaded the dough, then covered the pot to wake up the dough.
Shen Wanrong looked at her quick hands and feet and said enviously, "Your hands are really dexterous, I can't do it anymore, I will never be able to make delicious food in my life."
Tong Xuelu added a small amount of flour to the white sugar and said while stirring, "Grandma Shen's hands are used to make clothes, so leave the cooking to Grandpa Wei."
Shen Wanrong pursed her lips and smiled: "By the way, I heard from Zhuzhu's grandfather that the army recently wanted to find a wife for your grandfather, which scared your grandfather to the point of having a heart attack."
Tong Xuelv couldn't help laughing: "Is the other party that scary?"
Her grandmother had passed away for so many years. If grandpa wanted to find a wife, in principle, she would not stop her, as long as the other party was of good character.
Shen Wanrong smiled and said, "I heard that in his forties, he can do everything in laundry and cooking, but unfortunately your grandfather doesn't want anything, and the troops can't force him."
"Grandpa wrote to me last time, saying that he should be able to transfer back to Beijing before the end of the year."
Tong Xuelu said, cut the awakened dough into a dozen pieces, press it flat and roll it into an oval shape, put the sugar filling in the middle, pinch the sides tightly to prevent the filling from leaking, and then roll it into an oval shape.
At that time, she is going to take the college entrance examination, and she should not be able to live at home every day after the exam. If her grandfather came back at that time, she would be able to help take care of Tong Jiaming's brothers and sisters.
Shen Wanrong: "I also heard from my Zhuzhu's grandfather about this matter. I heard that your grandfather also made people pay attention to the courtyard in Beijing. I have been neighbors with you for a long time. Her grandfather also followed to find the courtyard, and it is best that our family is still next to each other."
Tong Xuelu brushed a layer of honey on the surface of the dough, then sprinkled a layer of white sesame seeds, smiled and nodded: "That's the best, I also want to be neighbors with Grandma Shen and you."
When it's done, she puts the dough in the oven to bake.
Tong Jiaming went to deliver the cakes, and when he came back, he had two boxes of snacks in his hand.
As soon as he stepped into the yard, he felt that something was wrong. The lights in the room and the kitchen were not turned on, and the whole yard was eerily quiet.
Did everyone in the family go to the Wei family next door
Tong Jiaming walked to the living room with two boxes of snacks. When he stepped into the living room, he only heard the light come on with a "pop".
A burst of cheers rang out: "Happy Birthday!"
Tong Jiaming was startled, his eyes widened, but he still held the dim sum tightly in his hand and did not drop it.
Tong Jiaxin grinned and said, "Second brother, were you taken aback? My sister said she wanted to give you a surprise."
Tong Jiaming looked at a room full of people smiling at him. The wall of the room was pasted with paper-cuts of "Happy Birthday", and there was a table of meals on the table.
Tong Jiaming grabbed the dim sum in his hand, feeling a warm current in his heart: "Yes, I was startled." He was also very happy.
Wei Zhuzhu ran up and grabbed his hand: "Brother Jiaming, come here quickly, everyone is waiting for you to eat, my stomach is hungry and thin!"
"Hahaha… "
Everyone was amused by Wei Zhuzhu's words.
Tong Mianmian also touched her belly: "Second brother, Mianmian's belly is no longer fleshy, and I want to eat."
Tong Xuelu said: "Everyone, sit down and eat quickly, it won't taste good when it's cold."
Tong Jiaming was pulled and sat down.
He picked up a chopstick and put shredded pork in his mouth. The salty and sweet pork filled his mouth. The sauce was fragrant, creamy and sweet, so delicious that his nose was sour.
This was his first birthday. When his parents were there in the past, they didn't have the habit of celebrating birthdays.
He used to hear from classmates that their parents would boil red eggs or make longevity noodles for them on their birthdays. Although he didn't say anything, he was very envious.
He thought that nothing would happen today like before, but he didn't expect them to give him such a big surprise.
Tong Jiaming chewed the shredded pork slowly, the corners of his mouth hooked up little by little.
The other children hurried to grab the hollow sugar cookies after eating.
The hollow sugar cake is hollow in the middle, and the front and rear mouths are bitten open. They put the hollow sugar cake in their eyes as telescopes, and look at each other through the hole, and they have a lot of fun.
After playing enough, eat the sugar cake one by one. The hollow sugar cake is fragrant, crisp and crisp, and it is very addictive to eat.
After finishing the dishes, Tong Xuelu took out a brand new military satchel and handed it over: "This is a birthday present for you."
Tong Jiaming's heart beat faster, looking at the military satchel in disbelief: "is this really for me?"
Tong Xuelv nodded: "other people still have gifts for you, accept them quickly."
Tong Jiaming's eyes were sour again: "Thank you, sister."
The Wei family gave Tong Jiaming a new set of clothes made by Shen Wanrong herself, while Tong Jiaxin and Tong Mianmian gave toy tops and candies respectively.
Commander Xiao sent a military water bottle back a few days ago.
Tong Jiaming's hands were full, and his heart was also full.
Tong Jiaxin looked at his second brother enviously, wondering if there would be such a surprise when he was on his birthday
**
At this time, in a bungalow, Tong Zhen was really talking to Minister Yan, Yan Yongan.
Tong Zhenzhen frowned and said, "Minister Yan, what's the matter with that surname Xiang? Didn't you let him approach Fang Jingyuan? How did I hear that they broke up? "
Yan Yongan's face was gloomy: "The guy who has more than enough success and more than failure, don't mention him! Are you sure that Tong Xuelu also has the ability to predict?"
Tong Zhenzhen nodded: "yes, if you don't believe it, you can ask people to go to the general logistics compound and the art troupe to ask. She used to be arrogant and domineering, and she couldn't do anything. In short, it's completely different from now."
Yan Yongan lit a Hongtashan cigarette, took a puff and then slowly exhaled: "Did she cook before?"
He must have been asked before, and it was because of him that he felt incredible and troublesome.
Tong Zhenzhen shook his head and pouted, "where does she know how to cook? She has never been to the kitchen. I suspect that she doesn't even know what kind of monsters and ghosts have given her upper body!"
At first, she suspected that Tong Xuelu was reborn like herself, but Tong Xuelu's personality was completely different from her previous life, and the cooking was so delicious, so she quickly rejected this conjecture.
Later, she thought that her soul could come back, and that Tong Xuelu's soul might also be given to her body by other people's souls.
In the past few years, the four olds have been broken, and no one else dares to mention this kind of feudalism, and even if it is mentioned, no one will believe it.
But Yan Yongan believed it very much.
Their ancestors were fortune-tellers, and he knew more about metaphysical ghosts than others, which was why he believed Tong Zhenzhen's words in the first place.
Yan Yongan breathed out another puff of smoke: "Xiang Peng's side has been exposed, you'd better not go to the woman Tong Xuelu recently, and don't act rashly, so as not to startle the snake."
Tong Zhenzhen looked at him with a fascinated look: "Okay, I'll listen to you, but when will you marry me?"
Yan Yongan turned around and pinched her chin: "Are you in such a hurry?"
Tong Zhenzhen's cheeks fluttered: "I want to be your woman early, and then help you become a master!"
Only when they got married, had children, and were completely integrated, would she dare to tell him everything she knew, otherwise she was worried that she would become an abandoned child at any time.
Yan Yongan puffed a cigarette on her face, and said with a low voice, "I have already mentioned divorce to my wife, and I will marry you when I get it done here."
Tong Zhenzhen squinted her eyes: "will she agree to divorce you?"
Yan Yongan released her chin, and her face became cold again: "don't worry about this, in short, I will marry you."
The aura on his body is very strong, and when he doesn't speak with a cold face, he always gives people a sense of oppression, which makes people breathless.
Tong Zhenzhen didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of him: "by the way, didn't I ask you to help bring Tong Xuelu's mother's family back to Beijing? Why haven't they come back? "
Yan Yongan frowned again: "I asked someone to help transfer their family back, but they were stopped in the middle, and they can't come back for the time being."
In the final analysis, the power in his hand is not large enough, otherwise, how dare the other party go back on what he promised him
Tong Zhenzhen's brows also frowned: "Why is everything going so poorly? Could it be that Tong Xuelu's woman is doing the trick?"
She originally wanted Yan Yongan to transfer Wen Rugui's mother's family back to Beijing. Wen Rugui's mother was a good knife. In her previous life, she forced Wen Rugui to a dead end.
Once something happened to Wen Rugui, she didn't believe that Tong Xuelu would be indifferent, as long as Tong Xuelu was in pain, she would be happy.
But I didn't expect that things would be destroyed by people from the beginning, and I felt depressed when I thought about it.
Yan Yongan: "There is a possibility. Now we don't know what the woman is, and the connections and power around her are stronger than us, so we have to dormant."
"You only need to help me to climb up with all your heart, and when we become masters, it's up to you to take care of her how you want!"
Tong Zhenzhen thought that she would be able to step on Tong Xuelu under her feet in the future, and a smile appeared on her face: "Okay, I will listen to you, I won't make any decisions to find her!"
Yan Yongan nodded in satisfaction.
**
Zhou Yan returned to the base with a red face.
Seeing him like this, the people at the base couldn't help but ask, "Researcher Zhou, why are you smiling so happily? Isn't it a good thing?"
Zhou Yan grinned and said, "You guessed it right, I am engaged to my partner, and we will get married in June this year!"
When everyone heard this, they congratulated Zhou Yan, Zhou Yan smiled so much that the corner of his mouth almost grinned to the bottom of his ear.
After get off work, he couldn't wait to tell Wen Rugui and Huang Qimin about his engagement.
Huang Qimin said: "Brother, congratulations, I just said it would be useful to follow my proposal."
Wen Rugui looked at the table and said nothing.
Zhou Yan's white teeth gleamed: "Now the three of us are the only ones who are left without engagement. If you return home, you have to work hard!"
Wen Rugui made a sound of "um", with a light expression on his face.
Huang Qimin: "Haven't you figured out how to propose to your partner? According to me, if she doesn't think two catties of pork are romantic, she will buy four catties, and if not, buy ten catties. Is that romantic enough?"
Wen Rugui: "… "
When did pork equate with romance
Zhou Yan said: "It's still the simple object of Qimin and I. Two catties of pork will be enough. If you return, you will be in trouble."
Wen Rugui, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke up: "That's because my object is different from others. She is unique from the beginning, and naturally it can't be done with two pounds of pork."
"… "
Huang Qimin and Zhou Yan were both stuffed with dog food, and they felt panic in their hearts.
This is said as if their daughter-in-law/object is very worthless.
But when I think about it, it seems that it is not very valuable, so I used two catties of pork to propose a marriage.
Come on, in the future, the daughter-in-law/object cannot be in contact with the object of Wen Rugui, otherwise once there is a comparison, they are not allowed to make trouble with themselves.
Huang Qimin suddenly saw that Zhou Yan's ear was a lot of red, and there was a scar on the tip of the ear, and couldn't help but wonder, "Zhou Laxi, what's wrong with your ear?"
Zhou Yan choked his breath and said, "It's nothing, I accidentally bumped into the wall while walking."
Huang Qimin looked at him suspiciously: "It's very wrong for you to look like this. You shouldn't have hit the wall like this. You... Shouldn't you be screwed by your partner?"
"… "
Zhou Yan's face turned red with a "boom", and he choked his neck and said, "How is it possible? My partner doesn't know how gentle and considerate they are in front of me. I told her to go east and she didn't dare to go west, so I asked her to sit down. She doesn't dare to stand, how could she dare to touch me?"
Huang Qimin: "Is that so? I'll ask her next time when you set up wine, and ask her if she really listens to you like that."
Zhou Yan: "..."
Wen Rugui ignored the two of them and went to Director Jiao's office after dinner.
Jiao Bozhen looked at his frowning, and said with concern, "I heard that you have been asking people about romantic proposals recently, is there any such thing?"
Wen Rugui's ears turned slightly red: "Well, my partner said he wanted a romantic proposal. I've been thinking about it for a long time, but I don't know what it means to be romantic."
Jiao Bozhen said, "You asked so many people, why didn't you come and ask me?"
Wen Rugui was startled.
Because the teacher has been in the country for many years, he subconsciously classified him as an elder in the country. The elders used to get married because of their parents' orders. Especially during the war, they may not even have two pounds of pork.
So he didn't think about asking the teacher, but now he thinks it's his negligence.
Jiao Bozhen put down the pen in his hand and said, "Tell me, you asked so many people, what ideas did they give you?"
Wen Rugui said, "Qimin said to take two catties of pork to the target's house, Zhou Yan did the same, and some people said to use snacks or food."
All in all, they all eat that kind of food, with little difference.
Jiao Bozhen shook his head: "It's more than simple, but it has nothing to do with romance. In the past, when foreigners proposed, they would buy a bunch of flowers, put on a ring, and get down on one knee to propose. Such a proposal abroad is considered romantic."
In fact, he proposed to Zhong Shulan like this back then. Thinking of what happened back then, the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.
Wen Rugui's eyes lit up: "Teacher, I want to ask for leave to go back and propose!"
Jiao Bozhen rarely saw him like this: "Go, if you don't succeed this time, don't come back!"
Wen Rugui nodded, turned and hurried back to his office.
He took the notebook out of the drawer and wrote:
A marriage proposal needs to be romantic, first with flowers, second with rings, and finally with one knee.
After recording, he packed up and went to the dean to ask for leave, and then returned to Beijing that day.
Huang Qimin and Zhou Yan didn't know that he had taken a leave of absence until they got off work, and they were suddenly very curious.
Huang Qimin: "Would you like to take a bet on Rugui's marriage proposal this time?"
Zhou Yan remembered the sloppy bet last time, and said cautiously: "I bet he still won't succeed. The loser invites the winner to dinner at the state-run restaurant."
Huang Qimin smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll bet on his success, and you're ready to invite me to dinner."
**
Wen Rugui returned home and told the old man and Uncle Zong about the romantic method, and then the three men of the Wen family began to prepare.
The next day, Tong Xuelu went to work as usual, and when she came back from shopping, she saw Wen Rugui suddenly appear at the door of the hotel.
She was surprised: "Why are you back?"
Wen Rugui's ears were red: "Are you free to go somewhere with me now?"
Tong Xuelu: "Did something happen?"
Wen Rugui nodded: "Yes."
Tong Xuelu looked at his serious look, and subconsciously thought of Tong Zhenzhen.
She quickly went in and talked to the others, then got on Wen Rugui's bicycle and left.
Wen Rugui carried her under her feet and exerted strength, and the two disappeared in everyone's eyes with a "swoosh".
Tong Xuelv found that he was not heading to the military compound: "Where are you taking me now?"
Wen Rugui licked his lips and said, "You'll find out later."
Tong Xuelu blinked twice when she heard the words, her heart became heavier.
This direction is to go to the hospital. Could it be that something happened to Mr. Wen
Tong Xuelu had all kinds of bad guesses in her heart. Who knew that Wen Rugui did not take her to the hospital in the end, but went to the park where they had their first date.
Tong Xuelu was stunned again: "Why did you bring me here?"
In fact, as soon as she entered the garden, she faintly realized that she must have guessed wrong just now, and at the same time she had another guess.
Wen Rugui took out a piece of sermon from his pocket and preached, "I'm going to cover your eyes now, is it okay?"
Tong Xuelu had a feeling of irony: "You have the cloth ready, can I still say no?"
After she closed her eyes, she had already guessed what Wen Rugui was going to do, but she was very curious about what Wen Rugui had prepared.
Wen Rugui gently covered her eyes with the cloth, then took a deep breath and took her hand, leading her towards the bamboo forest.
There is a bamboo forest in the west of the park, the bamboo forest is quiet, and there is a pavilion deep in the bamboo forest. Usually, few people come here.
Wen Rugui took her to the pavilion, then released the cloth and said, "You can open your eyes now."
Tong Xuelu's eyelashes trembled slightly and opened her eyes, then subconsciously covered her mouth: "Where did you get so many flowers?"
She saw that the pavilion was covered with camellias, white, pink, bright red, and red and white. The petals were layered on top of each other.
Wen Rugui took out a box from his pocket, opened it and knelt down on one knee to her: "I'm stupid and can't speak, I just want to tell you that no matter how long it takes, I will cherish you very much!"
Tong Xuelu's eyes fell on the gift box in his hand. In addition to a gold ring, there was also a Shanghai market tourbillon watch, which was exactly the same as the one he was wearing, but it looked smaller.
Look up.
In the end, it landed on Wen Rugui's face that was so red that it was almost dripping blood.
Tong Xuelu felt a sweetness that she had never felt before.
This man is so good-looking, every part of his face grows on her heart, and he looks like she likes.
When she saw it, she couldn't help but want to kiss him, until his lips were red and swollen, and he couldn't breathe.
Compared with later generations, his marriage proposal was not romantic, and the love words he said were also very simple, but they made her heart darn crazy.
At this moment, Wen Rugui's heart was beating like thunder, and he was so nervous that the back of his palms were sweating.
Just when Wen Rugui thought he was going to suffocate his heart beating fast, Tong Xuelu stretched out his hand and said confidently, "Will you still put it on for me?"
Wen Rugui was stunned for a moment, and then there seemed to be fireworks in his heart.
He got up nervously and took the watch and ring several times before taking the watch and ring out of the gift box and putting them on her carefully.
The watch was just right, making her wrist extremely white.
The ring is a bit too big.
Wen Rugui also noticed: "The ring was worn by my great-grandfather when I married my great-grandmother, and later passed it on to my grandmother. Grandpa said that this will be passed on to you now."
Oh, it turned out to be a family heirloom.
Tong Xuelu looked at Cuiyu above, thinking that this ring should be very valuable.
A gust of breeze blew, ripples on the lake surface, and the pavilion was filled with the fragrance of camellias.
This situation finally made Tong Xuelu feel a little romantic.
She glanced around, and seeing that there was no one around, she wanted to have a bold engagement kiss.
Just as she was approaching Wen Rugui, the sound of erhu and suona suddenly sounded in the bamboo forest.
?
Tong Xue's green tiger body was shocked: "What is this sound?"
Wen Rugui pointed to the other side of the bamboo forest and said, "It's Grandpa and Uncle Zong who accompany us and celebrate."
"… "
Tong Xuelu looked in the direction he pointed, and the corner of his mouth twitched fiercely.
I saw Mr. Wen holding a suona and shaking his body while playing. If anyone didn't know it, he would think he was a prince playing the violin.
Suona is the music rogue who can make Chopin cry and silence Beethoven.
Listening to the noise in her ear, Tong Xuelv wanted to cry QAQ.
return! she! wave! Man! marriage proposal! ! !
**
Tong Xuelu really wanted to go back on it, but it was too late.
She and Wen Rugui discussed getting engaged first and waited two years before getting married.
First, she is still young, and secondly, she will take the college entrance examination at the end of this year. She really doesn't want to go to college with a big belly.
She plans to complete her studies in two years after she is admitted to university, and then get married and develop her career.
For Wen Rugui, as long as she promised to marry him, let alone two years, he would be willing to wait twelve years.
However, because Commander Xiao was not in Beijing, the engagement had to wait for him to come back.
The date of engagement also has to wait for Commander Xiao to come back to discuss.
Because people from the Commerce Department are coming over today, Tong Xuelv has to go back to work.
Wen Rugui took her to the restaurant on a bicycle.
Tong Xuelv walked for a while, but Mr. Wen was still very excited: "Xiao Zong, we have to celebrate today!"
Uncle Zong was also blushing with joy: "Yes, we have to celebrate, but Commander, Xiaojiu and Xiaoshi are still young, so they shouldn't be able to eat."
Mr. Wen glanced at him with disgust: "won't you borrow a chicken from someone else?"
Uncle Zong remembered that the chicken from the old Jiang's house next door could be eaten, so he nodded and went out.
Lao Jiang knew that Wen Rugui's marriage proposal was successful, but he was not stingy with a chicken, and agreed to give a chicken as a gift to the Wen family.
After getting his consent, Uncle Zong took the wind to the chicken farm.
After letting Xiao Wang slaughter the chickens of the Jiang family, Uncle Zong took the chicken and walked back.
When passing the flower bed, I suddenly heard two women complaining—
"I don't know who is so immoral, who actually picked all the camellias in the compound!"
"All taken out? No way?"
"It's just a meeting that says it's immoral. All the camellias were picked bald, cleaner than a bald head!"
"That's really immoral! I originally made an appointment with someone from the work unit to come over to enjoy the flowers this weekend, but now I've been spoiled like this. How can I tell you when I look back?"
"I'm so pissed off, I'm going to report it and let the guards catch the damn flower thief!"
Uncle Zong's footsteps were stagnant, and he almost tripped over his own feet.
He pretended to walk past the two women as if nothing had happened, and only ran wild after he had gone a long way.
"Commander, I'm afraid we can't hide the fact that we are flower thieves!"
