I will never give in to the scumbag male protagonist who wears books

However, if my brother’s symptoms of being a housewife and fearing women don’t improve, there may be no possibility of falling in love.

"had lunch."

Due to Ning Yuan's urging, her mother had no choice but to bring the half-cooked meal to the dining table.

"Eat less at noon and have a big meal in the evening."

There was no need to shout, Heidou had already run over.

It was a rare occasion when the whole family gathered at the same table, and my mother spooned out a bowl of seaweed and egg drop soup for everyone with a smile.

"Mom, my year-end bonus has been distributed." Ning Yuan took two mouthfuls of rice, seemed to remember something, stood up and said, "I'll get it for you."

"How much did you pay?"

"More than 1."

Am I super? !so much!

Ning Chu was startled and immediately raised his head to look at his brother. The twinkling light in his eyes was quickly noticed by Ning Yuan.

"I have some money and just want to make money, right?"

"Nope~ How can this be considered a bargain? I'm just worried that you don't know how to spend the money."

Ning Yuan ignored his sister, turned and walked to the TV cabinet, opened the backpack he brought home, and took out a wad of large bills tied with red paper.

"The cash you were given?" My mother's eyes lit up, but she smiled reservedly, "You don't have to give me money, I'm not short, just take the flowers yourself."

"Half for you."

"No need~ You kid..." The mother covered her mouth with one hand to cover her increasingly uncontrollable smile and shook her head in refusal, "The work is quite hard. You can spend the money you earn and save it to get married later. .”

Ning Yuan just pretended not to hear, took out half of the money from a wad and put it on the table.

"Ouch~ I said no, I'll save it for you to prevent you from spending it randomly."

The mother was overjoyed, but while refusing, she couldn't help but reach out and pick up the money. She subconsciously wanted to count it, but she felt a little embarrassed in front of her children, so she put it aside.

"Mom, don't give it to me. I'm really short of money." Ning Chu stretched out his hand to get it.

Her hand was slapped away, and her mother quickly put the money into her pocket: "Your brother gave it to me, what does it have to do with you?"

"Aren't you short of money~"

"I helped your brother save money to get married! I also need to support you and Ning Xin, why is there no shortage?"

Look at her arrogant look~ Ning Chu finally knew where her tough-tongued temperament came from.

She and Ning Yuan couldn't hold it back at the same time and burst out laughing, but their mother didn't care. She took out the money with a smile and counted them carefully one by one.

Heidou looked up blankly, not knowing what they were laughing at. His eyes rolled around in a circle, and he secretly stretched out his chopsticks to pick up the last piece of Coke chicken wings and quickly stuffed it into his mouth.

Who knows what they were talking about stupidly, but she had already eaten all the best food!

"Okay, don't give me money in the future, just this time."

After counting the money, my mother was so happy that she pulled out a rubber band from nowhere and tied the money neatly.

Ning Chu caught her flaw: "Mom, doesn't brother still have to give you living expenses every month?"

"No, the living expenses are for you and Ning Xin. How much can I spend?"

"Yes, you have an uncle~"

The mother's brows furrowed, and Ning Chu immediately gave up and abruptly changed the subject: "Black beans! Why did you finish all the chicken wings? I only ate one piece!"

"I see you don't eat either~"

"There's still more in the kitchen, I'll go get it." The mother got up and walked to the kitchen. She took her mobile phone and sent a voice message to the WeChat best friend group. Her tone was full of complaints, "My son is really, it's okay to just come back for the New Year. You still have to do it?" Give me money, don't be anxious with me, you said this kid..."

Ning Yuan complained in confusion: "When did I get so anxious..."

At the end of lunch, the uncle came to the door carrying large and small bags of New Year's goods.

The mother took the wad of money and showed it off to the uncle, looking very proud like a little girl.

But Ning Chu was sitting on the sofa, looking at her smiling mother and uncle with a gentle smile at the other end of the dining table, pursed her lips, and kept looking at her mobile phone.

Wen Yang didn't come for lunch today...

If we can't see Wen Yang at noon, I'm afraid we have to wait until eleven o'clock at night.

She was quite happy when she was eating, but now her mother stuffed her mouth with food, which made her a little jealous.

"Ning Chu, that number."

"What number?" Ning Chu was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at his brother sitting next to him.

Ning Yuan was a little embarrassed and shy, and his smile was more flattering to her: "That's it, Lily..."

"Oh~ you don't want to fall in love?" She muttered, "Why do you want to do it now?"

"No, I just want to have more friends and more ways to go..."

"Qi~" Ning Chu glanced at his brother with disdain.

Men are men, and they can't walk away when they see a beautiful girl.

However, because of Lily's large size, Ning Yuan might not be able to see Lily's unrestrained side, and might think that she is an introverted and conservative little girl.

This is okay, lest Lily scare Ning Yuan by being too explicit.

"The number has been issued to you, the rest is up to you."

I really want to see my brother being squeezed dry and holding on to the wall soon~

358.Exception

Eve 11/20

As dusk falls, the red lanterns hanging on the balcony light up one after another at the door of the house. The bright light strips are particularly clear and eye-catching in the darkness in the corner. In the distance blocked by tall buildings, the sound of fireworks can be faintly heard.

Ning Chu took a small bench and sat at the door of his house, looking at his mother who was burning paper to worship her ancestors in the corridor. The heat from the burning yellow paper mixed with the fly ash and floated nearby. Black Bean held the fireworks stick and ran around nimbly beside the fire barrel. Go ahead, the annoying mother wants to give her two slaps on the butt.

"Go, go, don't hit the barrel!"

There are special iron buckets for burning paper during the New Year. After two days, someone will come to your door and pay money to collect the burned ashes.

"Ning Chu, close the door and don't let gray float into your home."

"Oh~"

After closing the door, Ning Chu put his hands on his thighs and looked at the night outside the corridor window.

When can Wen Yang come~

Although she knew that Wen Yang would not arrive until around eleven o'clock, she still couldn't help but imagine that Wen Yang would get off work early and give her a surprise.

"Give me a moment." Ning Yuan opened the door from inside the house and came to the corridor with a couplet. "I'll post a couplet. Please step aside."

Ning Chu carried the small stool and sat at the door of the leader's house, looking up at his brother as he posted the couplets.

"Brother, have you talked to Lily?"

It’s been a few hours since I added a friend at noon, so it’s time to start chatting, right?

"What are you talking about?"

"..."

Ning Yuan turned his back to her and said while pasting the couplet: "I just said hello. I don't know what to talk about with her."

"Just bring up some topic."

"She doesn't come to chat with me either, just in case she is busy during the Chinese New Year."

Ning Chu muttered: "Tie Zhinan, wait until the girl takes the initiative to talk to you..."

She has given up hope on her brother and Lily~

One is very introverted, and the other is straight-laced and a little bit misogynistic. There is no way that these two characters are compatible at all!

It’s hard to say whether we can even talk.

"It sounds like you were not the same before." Ning Yuan pressed the couplet on the wall, turned around and asked, "Look, is it crooked?"

"Down a little bit, um, that's it."

When I was a child, the lanterns used at home during the Chinese New Year were still real, and the couplets were made with rice-glue-like glue. But I don’t know when all red lanterns started to be electric lamps, and that kind of glue has never been seen again.

The sound of fireworks and firecrackers can only be heard a few times in the distance. There is no choking smell of fireworks in the air, and there are not a few children playing in the community...

"Brother, when we were kids, we used to throw firecrackers into other people's homes."

"Well, remember."

Ning Chu looked at his brother resentfully: "Then you ran away and I was scolded... It was you who came up with the idea."

"I don't remember." Ning Yuan had selective amnesia. After pasting the couplet, he took two steps back and looked at it twice to make sure it was not crooked. Then he casually changed the topic, "Come in to watch the Spring Festival Gala? It's about to start."

"I'm too lazy to look, there's nothing interesting to see."

The coffee table in the living room was moved away, and the dining table was placed right in front of the TV. The uncle had already put the induction cooker and pots on the table, and cut the dishes for boiling and placed them all over the table.

It was almost eight o'clock before the uncle prepared tonight's hot pot, but Wen Yang definitely couldn't make it in time.

"Ning Xin! Come in and eat hot pot,"

"Coming, coming!" Heidou quickly ran into the house.

"Go wash your hands first."

She ran over to wash her hands as if she was confused, sat down in a hurry, her eyes immediately locked on the beef and mutton on the table, and before the pot was boiled, she couldn't wait to pick up two pieces of beef and throw them in.

Several people sat down one after another, but the uncle went out again and ran to help his mother burn paper.

Ning Chu took a photo of the dining table and sent it to Wen Yang, and urged: "It's already eight o'clock, when will you get home from get off work?"

Surprisingly, Wen Yang had an answer this time: "It's estimated to be nine o'clock. There are not many customers in the store. The manager asked us to get off work early."

It’s really ahead of schedule!

Ning Chu's mood suddenly improved a lot, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

The hot pot is boiling and the first program of the Spring Festival Gala is on stage.

She glanced at the TV, lowered her head without interest, opened a can of sesame paste and poured it into a small bowl.

Heidou had never watched the Spring Festival Gala, and his attention was attracted by the show. He stared at it with his ears perked up, and did not react until Ning Chu snatched away the beef on his chopsticks.

"Sister! This piece of meat is my meat!"

"It won't taste good after being cooked for a long time. I'll help you eat it."

"Brother~" Heidou immediately looked at Ning Yuan pitifully, "Sister is bullying me~"

Ning Yuan responded coldly: "Yes."

Mother and uncle also finished burning the paper, walked into the house with a smell of fire, and sat down at the table.

The uncle took out a bottle of liquor from under the corner of the table, poured it for his mother, and then turned to look at the brother and sister: "You guys have some, too?"

"Row."

When Ning Yuan handed over the cup, Heidou also came over with a bowl.

"Give me some too!"

"Children, don't join in the fun." The mother glared at Heidou, "Go and drink some milk. Aren't there several cans in the gift bag?"

Heidou jumped off the chair and ran to get Wangzai milk.

"Ning Chu."

The uncle also poured a glass for Ning Chu and placed it in front of her.

She frowned in embarrassment. She didn't like alcohol in the first place.

What's more, it's liquor, which I can't drink no matter in this life or in the previous life.

But it’s okay even if you’re drunk at home.

Just treat it as a favor to my mother’s little boyfriend...

"Thank you." Ning Chu murmured softly, picked up the wine glass, wrinkled his nose and took a sip.
