Ling Dang's physical fitness is not bad, so he won't get sick after being around dogs for a while.
Seeing her daughter playing happily with the puppy, Xu Hongmi could only suppress her old mother's worries, sighed, gave instructions to Zhou Chen and Xu Hongdou, and then went back to work.
Xu Hongdou handed the phone to Zhou Chen and asked Zhou Chen to help take pictures of her and Lingdang, and then sent it to the family group.
Lunch was eaten at the farm, with abundant vegetables and fresh grilled lamb chops. Not to mention, the quality of the grilled lamb chops at this restaurant is really not bad.
After lunch, Zhou Chen drove Xu Hongmi and her daughter to Xie Zhiyao's racecourse and showed Cui Lingdang the ponies.
Xie Zhiyao had something to do, so Zhou Chen said to Uncle Ze Qing who was looking at the horse farm and entered the stable.
Cui Lingdang was very excited when she saw the pony. Zhou Chen directly lifted her up and put her on his neck, letting her ride him and watch, which made her forget herself with joy.
After a day of getting along, Xu Hongmi discovered that Zhou Chen was really good at taking care of children, and Lingdang was very happy to play with Zhou Chen, so she felt free to leave Lingdang to Zhou Chen and Xu Hongdou.
After a day of fun and dinner together, Zhou Chen and Xu Hongdou sent Xu Hongmi to the door of the B&B in the town.
After getting out of the car, Xu Hongdou complained: "I told you to sleep in the small courtyard with me. I have enough sleep, but you refused."
"hehe."
Xu Hongmi smiled contemptuously: "I'm finally alone, why should I squeeze in with you and suffer. Besides, I have work at night."
"Okay, it's great that you have a job, okay, then go back quickly."
"Xu Hongdou, keep an eye on the bell. If she catches the cold, I will skin you."
"If you are worried, then I will keep the bell?"
When Xu Hongmi heard this, she ran away and walked into the door before turning back and waving her hand: "Bye."
"This Xu Hongmi just threw the bell to me on purpose."
Xu Hongdou shook his head, and then got in the car with Zhou Chen and returned to Yunmiao Village.
Back in the courtyard, Zhou Chen took Xu Hongdou and Lingdang to his room to paint and make wood carvings for Lingdang.
In the room of the B&B, Xu Hongmi finished her work, packed herself up, picked up her phone, started a video call with her parents back home, and told her parents everything that happened today, especially about Zhou Chen. Very detailed.
"Dad, Mom, Hongdou has really grown up now. He didn't even tell us about the person he was talking to. If I hadn't come here, I wouldn't even know about it."
Over there, Xu's mother Liu Guiqin asked impatiently: "Mi, I hear what you mean, Dou's partner is pretty good?"
Xu Hongmi said: "Not only is she good, she is quite outstanding. Although Dou is my biological sister, to be fair, Dou is really above the standard for her."
Father Xu Jianguo was unhappy when he heard this.
"Our beans are also very good and grow well, so why are we so popular?"
"Dad, Mom, I know you don't believe what I said. You have also seen Zhou Chen in the video. He is a talented person and has a good appearance. People said that after the lease here ends, he will follow Let’s go back together to pay homage to your two elders. When you meet him, you will know that he is really outstanding, and I really am not trying to say nice things to him.”
When Liu Guiqin heard that Zhou Chen was coming, her interest immediately increased.
"He's coming back with Dou. That's great. I want to see how good he is that you can even praise."
"I want to take a look, too. Anyway, I feel that none of us are good friends."
"Okay, I won't tell you any more. Anyway, they will go back in a few days. If you have anything you want to ask then, you can ask it yourself."
Xu Hongmi chatted with her parents for a long time, hung up the phone and went to sleep. She also walked a lot today and was busy with work, so she was still very tired.
When Xu Hongmi saw her daughter again the next day, she saw Lingdang running over with an item in one hand.
"Mom, mom, look, this is the painting my uncle painted for me, and this wood carving, it's all me, it's all me."
Xu Hongmi was very surprised when she looked at the wood carvings and portraits in Lingdang's hands.
The wood carving is about thirty to forty centimeters, and it looks like a bell. It is also colored, and it is the clothes that Ling was wearing yesterday. It is like a miniature version of the bell.
What shocked her even more was the painting, which had been framed and placed in a photo frame. The bells on it were smiling and lifelike, imprinted in the painting like an elf.
She couldn't help but ask Zhou Chen: "Zhou Chen, are you the one who made these paintings and wood carvings?"
Before Zhou Chen could speak, Xu Hongdou said with a proud face: "Of course, Zhou Chen is very good. His painting is no worse than those of the masters. He has only learned wood carving for two or three months, and he can already carve like this." Well, he did all this last night."
Xu Hongmi glanced at Xu Hongdou: "It's not like you are great, why are you so proud?"
Xu Hongdou felt a tightness in his chest when he heard this, and said hummingly: "Zhou Chen is my boyfriend, why am I so proud?"
"Virtue." Xu Hongmi looked disdainful.
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 1206: Energetic, new tenant
"genius!"
This is Xu Hongmi's evaluation of Zhou Chen.
Zhou Chen was originally just a programmer, but he was able to work hard in a few years to reach the company where he is today, and now he has shown amazing painting skills.
From what Hong Dou said, Zhou Chen only learned wood carving for two or three months, but he was able to carve so well. What is this kind of talent if not a genius?
But the more this happened, the more uneasy she felt. Zhou Chen was too good. Being good was a good thing, but it was related to her sister's happiness. Being too good sometimes wasn't necessarily a good thing.
But when she looked at Zhou Chen and Hongdou, loving each other, with eyes full of tenderness, her heart relaxed a little.
"Sister, let's take you and Lingdang to visit the ancient city today. It's very different from the Magic City. It has a different scenery."
"Really? Then I want to go take a look. Let's go."
There is not much work to do today, Xu Hongmi still has plenty of free time.
Zhou Chen drove the car and the group headed towards the ancient city.
Xu Hongdou has been to the ancient city several times and has been to many places suitable for fun, so today she serves as a tour guide with her sister and niece. Zhou Chen is responsible for helping them get things. When Xiao Lingdang is tired and can't walk, it is also by He held.
After shopping around all morning, they found a place to eat at one o'clock.
Xu Hongdou and Xu Hongmi sat tiredly on their chairs and didn't want to move, while Zhou Chen took Cui Lingdang and ran to buy ice cream.
Xu Hongmi sighed as she looked at her daughter, who was still brisk in her steps, and Zhou Chen, who was full of energy.
"It's so comfortable to have a man go shopping with you. Xu Hongdou, don't tell me, your boyfriend is really competent and has a good temper. He has been shopping with us for so long, and he never showed any impatience at all. It’s because I’m holding the bell, but I don’t even feel tired. With this kind of physical strength, you will definitely be happy in the future.”
Xu Hongdou, who was drinking tea, almost spit it out, choking her and coughing continuously.
"Xu Hongmi, what kind of talk are you talking about? If you don't know how to speak, just say less."
Xu Hongmi looked surprised: "What are you talking about? I said he has good physical strength and you won't have to worry about the heavy work at home in the future. What are you thinking? Oh, you can't do it?"
Xu Hongdou quickly covered her mouth and shouted angrily: "Xu Hongmi, shut up."
Xu Hongmi laughed. She was teasing Xu Hongdou on purpose.
"To get back to the subject, Zhou Chen is really good, he can care for others, and he is patient. Anyway, I think he is better than your brother-in-law."
"If my brother-in-law hears this, he will probably be heartbroken to death."
"Oh, he doesn't know how."
"Sister, how many days are you and Lingdang planning to stay here?"
"Well, I'll stay for two more days. I'll have a flight the day after tomorrow. I can't let Ling Dang get carried away. Besides, I also have to work."
Xu Hongmi's visit this time was actually to see Xu Hongdou's condition. Now that her sister is in good condition and she has found a good boyfriend, most of her worries have been reduced.
Originally she wanted to leave tomorrow, but thinking that Ling Dang would finally come out, let her play for two more days.
After having lunch and resting for a while, the Xu Hongdou sisters immediately resurrected with full health and started shopping again in the afternoon.
It wasn't until they were driving back to town at night that they covered their feet and complained that it hurt.
"Zhou Chen, you've been shopping with us for a whole day, and you're always holding the bell. Why don't you seem tired at all?" Xu Hongmi asked curiously.
Zhou Chen said with a smile: "Because I have been exercising, this distance is nothing to me. Even if I have to go up and down Mount Tai, I can recover after sitting for a while."
"Awesome, awesome."
Xu Hongmi sincerely praised: "If I hadn't known that you were running a company, I would have thought you were the kind of traveler who climbs mountains and wades in water. You will also take Xu Hongdou with you when you exercise in the future. Look at her. I’m too lazy, I’ll be ruined if I continue like this.”
Xu Hongdou said dissatisfied: "Xu Hongmi, don't talk about me, you are no better than me."
"Haha, can we be the same? I have a job and you don't."
A taunt that directly made Xu Hongdou hold his breath.
"Xu Hongmi, you are so cruel."
Zhou Chen first sent Xu Hongmi back to the B&B, and then drove Xu Hongdou and Cui Lingdang to Yunmiao Village.
Lingdang had already fallen asleep on the road, and when she got off the car, she was still carried back to the small courtyard by Zhou Chen.
When they returned to the courtyard, Nana was sitting in the restaurant eating alone. When she saw them coming back, she immediately came over happily.
"Shh, Ling Ding is asleep. Let's put her up first and come back down later."
Zhou Chen and Xu Hongdou went upstairs to put the bell in place, and then went downstairs to the rest area to drink tea with Nana.
"You went to the ancient city today. Judging from the looks of you, you must have been playing all day, right?"
Nana asked Zhou Chen and Xu Hongdou with a smile.
Xu Hongdou shook his head and patted his shoulder, sighing: "Yeah, I'm exhausted after a day of shopping."
"You should have all eaten, right?"
"have eaten."
"Oh."
Nana suddenly looked melancholy: "You are all not here today. I am the only one left in the courtyard. It is too quiet. I am not used to it. Damai left, Master Ma also started a business, and even Teacher Hu We are all going to the capital to attend the music festival. If you all leave in the future, I will be the only one left in this small courtyard."
Feeling Nana's sadness, Xu Hongdou held her hands and comforted her: "We haven't left yet. Teacher Hu is only going away for a few days and will be back soon. Damai will also come back in the future. There will also be new tenants in the future.”
"Even if there are new tenants, it's not you. It's boring."
The more Nana thought about it, the sadder she felt. She had lived in this small courtyard for a long time, but since Zhou Chen and Xu Hongdou moved in, the small courtyard became more lively than before, which also made their relationship become very close. She felt that even if new tenants would arrive in the future, there would definitely not be such an atmosphere again.
Xu Hongdou didn't know how to persuade her. Although she liked the atmosphere of the courtyard very much, she also liked being with Nana Damai and the others.
But she knows better that she does not belong here. She can live here for a while, but it is impossible to live here for a long time.
Nana wiped her tears and said, "Hongdou, don't worry, I just felt it. Today I was suddenly the only one left, so I suddenly felt empty in my heart."
Xu Hongdou hugged her and comforted her: "I understand, I really understand this feeling of emptiness."
Zhou Chen also comforted: "Nana, there is no need to be so sad. If you stay here, we will definitely come again in the future. If you leave here and go home, that's fine too. We all live in the Magic City, one Being able to get together on the phone is more convenient than here.”
When Nana heard this, she was stunned for a moment and said, "This seems to be true. To be honest, after living here for a long time, I almost forgot that my home is in the Magic City."
Seeing that Nana was depressed, Xu Hongdou simply went back to the room with her to comfort her, while Zhou Chen returned to Xu Hongdou's room and looked at Cui Lingdang.
In the next two days, Zhou Chen and Xu Hongdou stayed with Xu Hongmi and her daughter. They did not go to the ancient city, but walked around Yunmiao Village.
The night before leaving, Xu Hongmi specially found Xu Hongdou to drink all night. Both of them were drunk. The two sisters finally slept together with their heads hugged. Cui Lingdang, who had no one to take care of her, could only go back to the room with Zhou Chen to sleep.
Then early the next morning, Zhou Chen drove Xu Hongmi and her daughter to the airport.
When parting, sisters Xu Hongmi and Xu Hongdou were reluctant to leave and hugged each other for a long time.
Xu Hongmi said: "No matter you decide to stay in the capital or go somewhere in the future, after returning home, go back to the capital with Zhou Chen. When you arrive, remember to call me and I will pick you up."
Xu Hongdou made a gesture: "No problem, I will definitely go to the Magic City when the time comes."
Zhou Chen's family is in Magic City. She is now in love with Zhou Chen. Zhou Chen is willing to accompany her home to meet her parents. Although Zhou Chen has no parents now, she is also willing to go home with Zhou Chen.
"Just remember, I'm leaving, but I still want to advise you that falling in love is a matter between two people, and getting married is even more a matter between two people. You can't always think about yourself, and you should also think more about Zhou Chen. It's easy for you to go to the devil with him, but if he goes to the capital with you, it will be much more troublesome in all aspects."
Xu Hongdou quickly interrupted her sister's mumbling: "Okay, okay, I understand. Stop mumbling and leave quickly. The time is up."
Xu Hongmi patted Xu Hongdou's forehead: "Talking to you properly, your attitude will make me angry to death."
It was time to board the plane, and Xu Hongmi said no more. She just told Zhou Chen: "Zhou Chen, I will leave my sister to you. Please be more tolerant of her."
Zhou Chen solemnly replied: "Sister Hongmi, don't worry, I will definitely do it."
"Then bye."
"Bye bye, aunt, bye, uncle."
"Bye bye, bell bye."
"Sister Hongmi, bell, bye."
Xu Hongmi left slowly with Lingdang, and she lectured: "Lingdang, who asked you to call me uncle?"
