Chapter 217 Like a Rabbit(1/2)
When Zhong Nanqin came back, Su Mian told him about the express delivery.
After hearing this, he told Aunt Guo, "If there is a courier in this city in the future, I will refuse to accept it."
Aunt Guo nodded and agreed.
While eating, Su Mian saw that Zhong Yibai was not very strange and still talked and laughed with her, so she felt relieved.
Days passed day by day, and December was approaching in a blink of an eye.
As December approaches, the weather gets colder.
The wool coat was changed into a down jacket. Every day when he went out, Su Mian wrapped himself and Zhong Yibai into rice dumplings. Zhong Nanqin was still wearing a formal wear and woolen coat. He seemed not to feel cold at all.
That Friday, when I woke up early in the morning, Su Mian heard Zhong Yibai screaming excitedly outside, "Su Su, come out and see, it's snowing."
It's snowing?
Su Mian immediately turned over and got out of the bed, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, reached out and pulled open the thick curtains, and looked out the window.
The outside has become a world of ice and snow, and the whiteness covers everything in the world, leaving only the purest white.
Large scattered snowflakes are still falling, fluttering, as beautiful as flowers.
Su Mian turned around and said happily to the man who was still lying on the bed, "It's so heavy snow, do you want to watch it?"
Zhong Nanqin turned over and sat up, lifted the quilt and got out of bed.
When passing by the window, he looked out, and then said to Su Mian, "Don't drive today, I'll take you there later." After that, he stepped into the bathroom.
All year round, regardless of the cold or the heat, Zhong Nanqin has the habit of getting up early in the morning to take a shower.
Su Mian responded, then returned to the window and watched the heavy snow outside.
......
After breakfast, Su Mian went upstairs and then got down, and she wore a hat on her head.
This hat was last time I went to Jiangcheng. I originally bought it for Yu Miao, but Yu's embroidery was too big to stuff it in, so I left it for myself.
Zhong Yibai looked at the hat on her head and laughed 'haha', "Su Su, you look like a rabbit."
Su Mian shook her head in front of him, "Is it good-looking?"
"So cute," Zhong Yibai was very reluctant to give in to his praise, "You are more cute than Nini today."
Su Mian, who was praised so much, immediately said to him happily, "Thank you."
Zhong Nanqin came down from the second floor study with his handbag. When he raised his eyes, he saw Su Mian wearing a hat. The corners of his lips couldn't help but curl up, "I really became a rabbit."
Su Mian heard the joke in his words, and remembered that when he was in love, he would always call her "Su Xiaotu o39", and his cheeks immediately became hot.
He glared at him coquettishly and led Zhong Yibai toward the door of the villa.
Zhong Nanqin followed behind, looking at the big and small holding hands in front of him, and the cold black eyes were soft.
.....
Due to sudden heavy snowfall, the entire traffic in Beicheng was almost paralyzed early in the morning.
Along the way, Su Mian saw several car accidents, which scared her to death.
Zhong Nanqin took them to school. When he got off the bus, Su Mian reminded him with confidence, "Slow down the road, tell me when you get to the company."
Zhong Nanqin met her worried eyes, curled her thin lips and nodded gently, "Don't worry, I'll pay attention."
"Then I'll go in."
"Wait for me to pick you up after get off work, and go back to the old house tonight. My brother is back."
"good."
Su Mian turned around and entered the school. After Zhong Nanqin saw that she had entered the school, she drove away.
......
It snowed all morning and just after lunch, Su Mian received an orange alarm for heavy snow arranged by the Meteorological Bureau. The relevant departments at the higher level also followed an emergency notice. In order to ensure the safety of the children, all schools in Beicheng were allowed to leave school early.
Su Mian, who received the notice, immediately made a notice in the teacher group. After receiving the notice, the head teachers of each class immediately moved in the parent group, and soon a parent came to pick up the child.
After all the children were sent away, the snow on the ground was deep enough to the position of the calf.
The company couldn't leave, so Zhong Nanqin sent Dazhuang over and picked up Su Mian and Zhong Yibai.
On the way to the old house, the originally wide road was blocked.
Not only did the school leave early, but major companies also got off work early. There were too many vehicles on the road and the traffic was directly paralyzed.
After more than an hour of unblocking by the traffic police, the car slowly started to squirm.
It usually takes only forty minutes from school to old house, but this time it takes three hours.
It was almost four o'clock when we arrived at the old house.
When the old lady saw the two of them coming back, her heart finally fell.
Fearing that the two of them would be frozen on the road, the old lady asked someone to make ginger soup and bring it to her.
Su Mian drank a bowl, and Zhong Yibai drank half of it.
At around five o'clock, Zhong Nanqin also came back, and Su Mian felt relieved.
Hotpot for supper.
The old lady ordered people to make beef bone soup. At this moment, the thick white soup was rolling in the hot pot. The snow outside still did not stop, but the warmth in the house was strong. The whole family sat around the dining table, feeling indescribable satisfaction.
After Zhong Yibai had enough food and drink, he went upstairs to do his homework.
After Su Mian finished eating, she accompanied the old lady who had also eaten to the living room to watch the drama. The old man went back to the study to study his calligraphy. In the restaurant, only the brothers Zhong Nanzhao and Zhong Nanqin were left.
Zhong Nanzhao hasn't come back for a long time, so Zhong Nanqin accompanied him to drink a few more cups.
After drinking for three rounds, the two brothers also talked more.
Zhong Nanqin looked at Zhong Nanzhao and asked, "Is it still not possible to come back during the Chinese New Year this year?"
"It's not decided yet," Zhong Nanzhao ate the dish, "I'll try to take time to come back then."
For three consecutive years, every Spring Festival, Zhong Nanzhao stayed in the army to spend with his soldiers.
This year is the fourth year, and the old lady has already mentioned to him that she has been going home for the Chinese New Year this year.
He also felt ashamed of his parents at home, but when he thought of the soldiers in the army who could not even return home, he was reluctant to leave them.
In his heart, they were not just his soldiers, but also good brothers who had been through life and death with him.
Zhong Nanqin understood him and did not force him. He changed the topic and talked about other things.
"How are you doing with that little doctor?"
Zhong Nanzhao glanced at him and pulled the corner of his lips, "When did you like gossiping too?"
"Care for a moment," Zhong Nanqin picked up the bottle and filled the wine glass in front of Zhong Nanzhao. "After all, I don't want to be ahead of you, I have to take care of you as the eldest brother."
Zhong Nanzhao chuckled, "I don't care. If you and Su Mian feel it's appropriate, I have no objection to holding the wedding now."
"So, are you really separated from that little doctor?"
Zhong Nanzhao picked up the wine glass in front of him and put it in his hand to play with it. His eyelids drooped, covering all the emotions in his eyes.
After a while, he said softly, "She deserves a better man."
Seeing him like this, Zhong Nanqin changed the topic and talked about military affairs.
The two of them slowly drank and chatted, but it was already late at night.
It was already eleven o'clock in the evening when Zhong Nanqin returned to the bedroom.
Because he didn't go to work tomorrow, Su Mian was half lying on the bed while reading a book while waiting for him.
Seeing him come in, she put down the book in her hand, lifted the quilt and got out of the bed, and raised her foot to meet her.
As soon as I got closer, I smelled a strong smell of wine.
She looked up and said to him with a coquettish look on her face, "The two of them drank a bottle and a half, you and your elder brother are so awesome."
Zhong Nanqin smiled slightly, reached out to wrap her slender waist, and looked at her with his eyes down, "Brother hasn't been back for a long time, so I rarely relax, so I drank a few more drinks with him."
Su Mian reached out and pushed him with a disgust, "It's so stinking, go take a shower."
"Together," Zhong Nanqin said, and then walked towards the bathroom with her in her arms.
Su Mian struggled in his arms and said, "I have washed it, you can wash it yourself..."
"I'm dizzy," Zhong Nanqin suddenly frowned, with a feeling of pain.
When Su Mian heard this, he immediately reached out to support him.
While helping him to the bathroom, he nagged, "Who told you to drink so much? How many times have you told you that drinking too much alcohol is bad for your health, and you just don't listen."
Zhong Nanqin listened carefully and did not refute.
After entering the bathroom, Zhong Nanqin leaned against the wall, looking like he was really drunk.
Su Mian helped him turn on the shower and adjust the water temperature. After feeling that it was almost done, he turned around and walked to Zhong Nanqin and said to him, "It's done, you can wash it."
