me and a divorced housewife

Chapter 240
I think people my age almost have this kind of experience, how they feel about the Chinese New Year.

When I was young, I always looked forward to the New Year, because for children, there are new clothes to wear, endless delicious food, and firecrackers. What’s more exciting is that you can collect lucky money during the New Year. Said, this is the only good opportunity to obtain huge wealth!

But after growing up, I gradually found that the New Year is getting more and more meaningless. The places that attracted you in the past have become childish and ridiculous as you grow up. The only hope is the one-week annual leave. You can take the opportunity to rest. Look at the Spring Festival Gala, but the gala is getting more and more boring. It's all hymns praising the party and government.

My feelings have grown stronger over the years.

Only this year has become a little different, because of the arrival of Liu Ruyue, it seems that everything has returned to the wonderful feeling of childhood, as if doing anything with her is full of fun, especially when I think about it, if we get married, maybe in the future We are together like this every Chinese New Year, and it feels very romantic immediately.

My sister graduated from university and went to France for an internship, so she didn't come back this year for the Chinese New Year.I am also grateful for this, that girl is not a fuel-efficient lamp like my mother.If she came back, it might be what it would be like.

Liu Ruyue and I cleaned the glass and put up window grilles together. My father and mother were preparing the New Year’s Eve dinner in the back room. While they were not paying attention, I secretly kissed Liu Ruyue on the cheek. Continue to kiss, but she hides back, I stretched too far, lost my balance inadvertently, and fell down from the window sill.

My father and mother hurried over and asked with concern, "What's wrong? Why are you so careless? You're so grown up, and you're still frizzy."

"That window is too high for me to reach," I said.

"Nonsense, your mother and I can reach my height of 1.6 meters [-], but your [-] meter boy can't reach it?" My mother said.

Liu Ruyue snickered aside.

At night, the cannons roared outside, and after a while, the fireworks also rose, one after another, one after another, blooming in the bright night sky, very beautiful.

We were all watching the fireworks in front of the window, I took a peek at Liu Ruyue, and found that she was facing the fireworks, her eyes were closed, and she was whispering, as if she was making a wish.

I don't know what wish she made, will it have something to do with me?
……

For the New Year's Eve dinner, apart from the copper pot made by my mother, there are naturally dumplings filled with fillings made by Liu Ruyue. I don't know if it's a psychological effect. I think what Liu Ruyue said makes sense.

"Come on, Kisaragi, Mom and Dad," I said, raising my glass, "to drink for our family reunion."

Liu Ruyue was taken aback.

My mother was very disappointed, raised her glass and said, "Reunion, what kind of reunion is this? When the daughter-in-law and grandson are sitting on the table, that will be the real reunion."

"Mom! It's Chinese New Year, can you not talk about it, don't spoil the fun?" I said.

My dad laughed quickly, "Yes, yes, I won't talk about these things right now, but Yu Hao, if we don't talk about it, it doesn't mean that your mother and I are not in a hurry. Your mother and I are going to retire soon. This person Retirement, if you have nothing to do, it will be really boring, you have to be considerate of us."

I smiled and said, "Of course I am considerate. I have already considered this matter for you."

My parents were relieved, "It's not too bad."

I continued, "I've already thought about it. I'll buy a mahjong table for you two later. It's okay. You can invite your neighbors to come to our house to play mahjong and give you a puppy. Dad, don't you like it?" Birds, I'll buy you one, so this retirement will be rich for both of you."

"Get lost!" My mother was unhappy at the time, "Don't fool me here, kid, you know what my father and I were talking about, thanks to you still thinking about it, you also keep dogs and birds, I told you You, we are not interested in these things, hurry up and find me a daughter-in-law and have a fat grandson, this is the business."

"Oh, mom!" I cried out incessantly.

"Stop oops, did you hear that?" my mom asked.

"I heard it, I heard it." I said impatiently, "I'll look for it right away, I'll find it for you with a lantern, and I promise to find you a fat daughter-in-law."

Liu Ruyue chuckled.

"It's a fat grandson, not a fat daughter-in-law!" My mother said, "Don't be like your old Uncle Gong, find me a Buddha statue."

Liu Ruyue and I burst out laughing.

My father pulled my mother, "Your mouth is not damaged, be careful that Lao Gong hears it."

My dad raised his glass and said, "We should first welcome Xiao Liu to come to our house to celebrate the New Year. Come, Xiao Liu, uncle will have a drink with you."

Liu Ruyue raised her glass respectfully and said, "Thank you uncle."

After drinking, Liu Ruyue poured it for herself again, raised her glass, and said to my mother, "Auntie, I would like to toast you, thank you for your generous hospitality."

My mother quickly evaded, "Forget it, I can't drink alcohol."

"Everyone's children are lifted up, so you just have to make sense of it." My dad urged.

My father and I both know that my mother usually drinks, and she refuses Liu Ruyue, and she still has a grudge against her.

I think she is a bit too much in this regard.

My mother had no choice but to raise her glass, "Then I'll drink a little."

Liu Ruyue was very happy, "I wish Auntie good health."

My mother said, "Then I wish you to find your right husband as soon as possible. In fact, my aunt also thinks that it is not easy for you to raise a child by yourself, but my aunt thinks you are very good, and I will definitely find you a good couple." people."

Liu Ruyue was taken aback.

"Mom! What are you talking about?" I complained.

"What did I say wrong again?" My mother was also angry, "You don't like what I say now?"

My dad hurriedly played sloppy eyes and said, "It's alright, alright, you two don't quarrel today, it's not a day for quarreling, come, come, eat vegetables."

My mother stopped talking, but she didn't drink, she put down the wine, and Liu Ruyue drained the glass of red wine with her neck raised.

……

Some places do not visit relatives on the first day of the new year, but my grandparents passed away early and the relationship between relatives is very good, so I don’t pay so much attention. Therefore, on the morning of the first day of the new year, all my seven aunts and eight aunts came.

As soon as they came, they found Liu Ruyue. They subconsciously thought that Liu Ruyue was my girlfriend. After all, the ones brought back by the Chinese New Year were basically girlfriends. They immediately became interested and hurriedly asked my mother Liu Ruyue who is it?

Before I had time to say it, my mother immediately rushed to say, "Xiao Liu, a friend of Yu Hao, she is divorced and has a child. Hao took her home to celebrate the New Year, so don't misunderstand her."

Originally, these few things were not related side by side, but according to my mother, they seemed to happen together, so after hearing it, everyone immediately felt sympathy and pity for Liu Ruyue, as if overnight, this So many tragedies happened to women at once.

Liu Ruyue immediately became unhappy.
