In the afternoon, pick up Xu Qianqian and the others, in the evening, pick up Zhizhi.
"Hmm..." Jiang Nian leaned back in his chair, sitting at his desk, "This isn’t right, I’ve really beco a driver."
After lazing around for two or three days, it’s ti to get busy again.
However, he didn’t really mind going to school. If he wrote at school, he actually had fewer things to do.
At night, before going to sleep.
As usual, he glanced at the class group chat, still over 99 ssages. But it was noticeably less lively than the previous two days.
Yang Qiming said, "Haha, today I ate a lobster as thick as an arm."
Huang Caicai: "Brother Yang, what flavor was it?"
Zeng You was also quite interested in the lobster and sent a drooling emoji.
"I want to eat so too."
Sun Zhicheng @Yang Qiming, sarcastically said, "It’s really sothing, showing off eating a lobster."
Yang Qiming: "What’s wrong with that?"
Tao Ran: "Speaking of lobster, I recently found a pretty bizarre picture, [Picture]."
"Whoa!"
"Gross! Can the class rep go check their head."
"Group leader, you...."
[Administrator Qing retracted a ssage from mber Tao Ran]
Lin Dong: "An explosive start."
Ma Guojun: "I realized sothing was off when I saw it, but it was too late, byd."
Liu Yang: "What? What are you all talking about? (Confused)"
Jiang Nian looked at the group chat ssages but didn’t feel much about it, guys being curious was no big deal.
After browsing the ssages, he laid down and went to sleep.
....
The fifth day of the Lunar New Year.
Old Jiang specifically let go of the car so Jiang Nian could pick up Xu Qianqian, while he switched to an electric scooter to go out.
"Be careful on the road."
"Got it."
"Drive carefully, don’t speed!" Li Hongi warned, "Don’t take it lightly, there are a lot of cars during the New Year."
Ms. Li has always kept her distance from driving.
She considers it one of the more dangerous things in the world, with too many unpredictable factors.
"I just rembered, lots of people heading back these past two days," Old Jiang ntioned.
"Oh oh," Jiang Nian replied lazily.
"Mom, if you don’t let go, I won’t make it in ti for lunch. My hands will shake driving on an empty stomach."
Li Hongi: "..."
Forty minutes later.
Jiang Nian arrived at Yunmu Town, following the address Chen Yunyun gave, stopping in front of a hardware store run by her relatives.
It’s her family’s store, with so parking spaces at the entrance.
Parking is easy around town, but the road in front of her house is narrow. Even if you got in, it’s hard to park.
With a bang, Jiang Nian got out of the car.
"You’re here?"
"Yeah."
"Yuhe is over at the supermarket, let’s head over together," Chen Yunyun said, her hair casually draped over her shoulders.
Jiang Nian turned, noticing she’d dressed up.
"Did you put on makeup?"
"No!" Chen Yunyun got anxious, "Where did you get that idea, I just washed my hair."
Washing your hair before eting does show you care.
He gave Chen Yunyun a once-over, she had thoughtfully matched her outfit.
A short, royal blue down jacket, vintage jeans. Her hair was fluffy, emitting a faint fragrance.
Probably from running, her fair cheeks were slightly flushed.
"Oh, I thought you put on makeup." Jiang Nian patted her shoulder, "Let’s go, which way?"
Chen Yunyun pursed her lips, "Mm."
She walked ahead a bit, then turned back to look at the tall Jiang Nian, sowhat unsure.
"Do I really look like I’m wearing makeup now?"
Jiang Nian nodded, "Mm, your skin looks really fair."
"Really?"
"Yes."
Hearing this, Chen Yunyun couldn’t help but smile. She turned back and continued walking, her steps even lighter.
"Alright."
When they found Wang Yuhe at Sunshine Supermarket, she was in the jelly section, checking the prices one by one.
"Buy astronaut-thed ones because... grandma wants to be a scientist."
Jiang Nian’s voice startled her.
"Ah!"
When she saw it was Jiang Nian, Wang Yuhe got irritated and pointed at him, "You you you!!"
"I’m doing well."
The jelly section in supermarkets is often one of the most popular places for kids during the New Year, but the prices aren’t exactly a bargain.
Sunshine Supermarket isn’t big, and a few kids were running around the seafood section.
"What were you planning to buy?" Jiang Nian asked.
"Nothing, a kid was just looking here," Wang Yuhe shook her head, "I was curious what he was looking at."
"What was it?" Chen Yunyun asked.
Wang Yuhe whispered, "...a big bug."
She’s still a student, no need to buy gifts. In fact, a few days ago, she even received red envelopes from Chen Yunyun’s parents.
Indeed, that seems fair.
Jiang Nian picked up a few boxes of milk and fruit, taking them to the checkout, leaving Wang Yuhe astonished.
"Ding, that will be a hundred and ten altogether."
"Why are you buying these?" Chen Yunyun asked.
He replied, "To visit your ho."
Wang Yuhe was taken aback, slowly turned to look at Jiang Nian.
"Visiting Yunyun’s ho ans you should bring...."
"No need, don’t listen to him," Chen Yunyun hugged Wang Yuhe’s arm, "Good friends don’t bring gifts."
"Oh oh," Wang Yuhe nodded.
She took a few steps, then turned to look at Jiang Nian again.
"You’re so pitiful."
Jiang Nian: "???"
"Why pitiful?"
"Because you’re not really good friends with Yunyun yet," Wang Yuhe said, "So, you’re kind of pitiful."
Chen Yunyun’s face turned red, hastily explaining.
"It’s not like that."
"Isn’t it?" Wang Yuhe glanced at Jiang Nian again, "If you visit my ho, should you bring gifts?"
Jiang Nian casually replied, "The sa."
All three went upstairs, hearing noises in the hallway.
Jiang Nian stopped, asking, "Do you have guests at ho today?"
"No, it’s the neighbors," Chen Yunyun led them forward, "Seems like they’re getting married soon, so it’s lively."
"Weddings are a good thing."
"Second marriage."
"Uh..." Jiang Nian couldn’t help but chuckle, casually said, "Then it’s even better, a double blessing."
Wang Yuhe tugged on Chen Yunyun’s clothes, softly asked.
"Why do people get married twice?"
Chen Yunyun answered, "Because they got divorced."
"Divorced?"
Jiang Nian thought to himself, I’m familiar with this, "It’s when a couple can’t make it work after marriage and find soone else to marry."
"Kind of like twice-cooked pork, cooked twice."
Chen Yunyun: "...."
She opened the door, pointing at a brand-new pair of slippers.
"Hey, wear these."
"New ones."
Hearing this, Jiang Nian was slightly surprised.
"Oh, okay."
Wang Yuhe had visited often, and there was already a specific pair of slippers for her in the shoe cabinet. She put them on and called out toward the living room.
"Hello, uncle and auntie."
"Yuhe is here, co in, sit, sit."
"Auntie will cut you so fruit, do you want so milk?"
"Yes."
As Jiang Nian entered, he saw Wang Yuhe sitting in the living room like a well-behaved child, left hand with fruit, right with milk.
Suddenly, he felt amused.
He thought to himself, no wonder she asked why I was buying milk and fruit, turns out it was all for her tribute.
byd, seems I’ve t my match in freeloading.
"Mom." Chen Yunyun’s voice was a bit tense as she moved aside, "I also have a... classmate."
Even if she wanted to block him, she couldn’t; Jiang Nian was a head taller.
"Hello, uncle and auntie."
Jiang Nian carried the fruit and milk over, greeting them.
This was when Mr. Chen and Mrs. Chen realized. Their daughter’s classmate... oh no, their daughter’s male classmate was here.
They paused for a mont, then snapped back to reality.
"Oh, co in, have a seat, have a seat!"
Mrs. Chen glanced at Jiang Nian, her face instantly lighting up with a smile. In contrast, Mr. Chen’s smile was a bit more complex.
"Would you like so fruit?"
"Uh, yes, please," Jiang Nian sat down next to Wang Yuhe, the two of them lined up, "Thank you for the trouble, auntie."
"No trouble, no trouble," Mrs. Chen bead.
Wang Yuhe sat there, looking over at Jiang Nian again.
"You’re eating the sa as ?"
Uh...
