Chapter 51: Night Tour of the Amusement Park
Mid-Autumn Festival banquet.
Outside the villa, the gardener checks with hedge shears, cutting off inappropriate branches that destroy the beauty, and the osmanthus flowers that fall on the ground will not be swept away.
Cui Jing came down from upstairs and saw many gift boxes piled on the table in the hall.
Only the scattered mooncakes were brought by their own family members, while the other unopened gift boxes, Maotai, tea and the like were sent by juniors or business partners.
The Zhai family's house is filled with a large family.
Zhai Xiekang's family, except for the eldest sister Cui Jing who was only heard of but never seen, was absent, while the red-haired second sister Zhai Xia Xia and the adopted son Zhai Tianyu were all there.
In addition to his eldest son Zhai Xiekang, the old man also has a younger son, Zhai Yuxian, who has zero presence in the plot and flies domestically and internationally all year round.
Zhai Yuxian looks like a scholar, and his wife Chu Bei is a strong and muscular Barbie. They are a business marriage, with simple emotions and family members, only one daughter: Chu Zhen. It is said that the old man and Zhai Yuxian had a big fight over the surname.
Zhai Yuxian believes that a good relationship between husband and wife is the happiest thing for the whole family, and it doesn’t matter whose surname the child takes. His wife doesn’t care whose surname the child takes, and she lets him take whatever surname he wants.
So what if it’s your own child but his or her surname is not yours? If the surname is not yours, does that mean the child is not yours?
My father regards the surname as more important than anything else. He thinks and speaks in a way that is ingrained in him, and treats my mother as an outsider. He has seen this since he was a child, and his rebellious heart has been growing day by day.
Chu Bei also said yes, yes, it doesn’t matter whose surname it is. ——In the end, she decided on the surname Chu.
Chu Bei: As a girl, it would be embarrassing if Zhai Zhen told others about her, right?
Zhai Yuxian thought seriously: Yes.
The couple was afraid that Chu Zhen would melt if they held her in their mouths, and afraid that she would fall if they held her in their hands. They felt even more distressed if she got bumped or bruised. They successfully raised their daughter to be a treasure who needed to be cherished. She understood the truth, goodness and beauty in the world, and saw the beauty of the world in her eyes.
The couple worried day and night, and after much deliberation, they found a live-in son-in-law for Chu Zhen, and they gave birth to a daughter, Chu Qingyun, nicknamed Lepi.
Chu Bei learned the lesson from his daughter and implemented the "freedom and self-interest" education for his granddaughter Chu Qingyun.
Chu Qingyun has been a troublemaker since he was a child, stealing chickens and birds at holiday farmhouses, just like a devil.
Cui Jing listened to their family conversation and recalled the information about family members that the original owner had learned from Zhai Yang, and she was even more surprised.
This family is like actors from another set.
She turned around and saw Lepi looking at her curiously with big eyes.
Cui Jing:!
Equal fear for every child.
She lowered her head and ate quietly to avoid the noise. She was beautiful and noble, as quiet and elusive as a wisp of smoke, not giving anyone a chance to look at her.
The old man brought up the topic of having children several times at the dinner table. Cui Jing kicked Zhai Yang under the table and asked the person involved to come out and fight back.
Zhai Yang concentrated his firepower and said, "I don't want children." The atmosphere dropped to freezing point on the spot.
Cui Jing sneered in her heart, but her hands moved gracefully.
Of course he wouldn't want children. Even if he had children, it would have a happy ending.
right.
……
After the first person left, Cui Jing also pulled Zhai Yang, who was halfway through his meal, away to end the family dinner.
I went back to my room and stared at the open wardrobe, thinking about how good the chef's cooking skills were.
She pulled out a long dress.
Kyoto is a municipality located in the south, close to the sea, with abundant rainfall and long summer. The weather was still hot at the end of September. Cui Jing changed her clothes quickly and curled up on the sofa waiting for news from Qin Sheng, and combed Buhei's hair.
There was a knock on the door.
"Enter."
Zhai Yang walked in and sat down beside her. He had the familiar scent of herbs and plants on him. "If the old man wants you to give birth, just pretend you didn't hear him. Forget it. If he wants you to give birth, just go along with him. Tell me what he said to you."
"it is good."
"Do you want to go out?"
"Correct."
Zhai Yang thought she was going out with her playmates headed by Madam Chen, so he took a look at her. She was dressed quite simply, without earrings or necklace, and her wrists were clean.
The ends of her loose hair were bent and she was combing the cat's hair with little interest.
The nails are narrow, long and pointed, with elegant hand-painted patterns and shiny fingertips. A platinum decorative ring on the index finger echoes the manicure.
Zhai Yang felt that it was not wrong to appreciate such long nails, they were quite... delicate and beautiful.
Cui Jing glanced at her phone and sat up straight.
[Teacher Qin]: I’m almost there.
If she says it's coming soon, it really is coming soon.
Cui Jing put Buhei and the comb into Zhai Yang's arms and said, "After you comb it, remember to get some more water from a can at night."
He raised his eyelids and hummed lightly.
Buhei was comfortably holding back the "clip" sound when he was suddenly moved to another place. He was about to jump down in protest, but a slender and well-proportioned hand pressed on Buhei's body.
He said calmly: "Your mother has to go out and has no time to take care of you."
Zhai Yang restrained himself and watched Cui Jing walk out of the bathroom with her hair tied up. She then walked to the bedside and picked up a pair of thin socks.
She went out with her cell phone.
Buhei struggled and meowed, showing its fangs. Zhai Yang held its two front legs together and skillfully covered its mouth with his hands.
I casually asked, "Don't you have a backpack?"
Then I saw Cui Jing walking back in annoyance, picking up a new luxury bag on the table. The slender chain was entangled with white suede, wrapped around her white fingers, hung on her shoulders, and her curves were revealed under the loose clothes.
"Bang——" the door was closed.
Zhai Yang began to comb the hair of “left-behind children”.
The young lady had plans to go out, so the driver did not dare to delay and parked the car at the door in advance and turned on the air conditioning to lower the temperature.
Cui Jing got into the car in a hurry.
It was still bright outside. She actually didn't like going out in broad daylight as it was hot and noisy. She had applied sunscreen on her arms but after holding an umbrella for half a day her arms were still out of place from her sleeves. Qin Sheng had complained about this many times.
Cui Jing comforted her: This is very cute. - Like a ladyfingers dipped in half a piece of black chocolate sauce. Qin Sheng rolled down his sleeves and chased her to hit her.
It was much darker when we drove to the downtown area. There were crowds of people at the entrance of the amusement park, and cars were moving and stopping all the time.
She sent a message to Tan Sheng.
[Teacher Qin]: Turn around.
Cui Jing turned around and looked around, and saw pairs of couples, mostly men and women, who did not release obvious pheromones. Cui Jing could not tell their second gender and could only see that they were male and female couples.
There was a familiar tall figure next to him, wearing a thin pink plaid page boy hat, a top of the same color, and dark pants. His profile had an unfamiliar coldness in the dark.
I was lowering my head and listening to a girl talking.
Cui Jing looked for a few seconds and continued to send a message: Where are you?
"I haven't seen it yet." Qin Sheng came over and took Cui Jing from behind, teasing: "Teacher Cui is so beautiful."
Cui Jing turned around and a patch of pink caught her eye. "So cute."
"Didn't you see me standing next to you?" Qin Sheng looked at her with his smile on his face, and the words he uttered were filled with mischief full of interest.
"I just saw you talking to someone and thought it was someone else. Wait wait, don't be so close to my neck with your braids."
It made her back a little itchy.
"I'm asking for directions." Tan Sheng ignored her request and said, "Take a picture and smile."
Cui Jing was not familiar with being photographed, so she used gestures and smiles to fill the blank spaces in the picture, and the two people making hand gestures who couldn't take photos were frozen in the cell phone.
Tan Sheng: "Should I post a circle of friends?"
"Okay."
There was already a long queue at the entrance of the amusement park, and the two of them were moving at a snail's pace in the queue.
Qin Sheng stood behind Cui Jing and edited her circle of friends. He looked down and saw that her long hair was tied up several times on her back with a silk hairband. The protruding bones on her back were half-hidden by her black hair, like a bird spreading its wings as if ready to fly.
Qin Sheng glanced at the pretty girls around him, all of whom were dressed very coolly.
That's okay.
By the time they lined up for ticket checking, it was completely dark. Lights were twinkling everywhere, the sky was illuminated a transparent purple, the moon was very round, and the city was as prosperous at night as it was during the day.
Cui Jing wrapped her arm around Qin Sheng's arm like a boneless person, but then let go because she felt it was too hot. Qin Sheng handed the small fan to Cui Jing, but Cui Jing waved her hand.
"Really not?"
"Ah."
"You're just too lazy to take it." Qin Sheng waved the fan in front of Cui Jing a few times and then retracted it. The wind blew the strands of hair that were stuck to Cui Jing's neck, making them flutter a few times and then stick back.
"Smart, you guessed it right."
Cui Jing followed the slowly increasing crowd. A procession of floats passed by, and the crowd parted. They were separated. Cui Jing was pushed by the crowd to an ice cream vendor and fell into his arms.
She looked up.
The man seemed a little surprised. After he saw her face clearly from under his hat brim, he stuffed an ice cream into her hand and said, "What a coincidence."
Only after he spoke did Cui Jing know who he was.
Xue Yijie was still holding a bitten ice cream cone in her hand, "Buy one, get one free."
He should have very good teeth, Cui Jing thought.
Cui Jing's somewhat sensitive teeth did not allow her to have any dangerous thoughts. She raised the cone and licked it, rolling off the milky white snow on the top with the tip of her tongue, and then she said, "What a coincidence."
The lip beads are sparkling.
Xue Yijie blinked, his heart pounding. He suddenly put his hand on his chest, feeling the disorder underneath.
Rumble.
How could he express his inner feelings? He was not a poet, nor a writer. In the end, the feelings in his chest turned into a name.
"Cui Jing!" Two voices overlapped.
Tan Sheng saw Cui Jing, who squeezed towards her and said, "Here."
"I want another one." Xue Yijie paid again, picked up a solid ice cream from the vendor's hand, followed him and asked, "Want to share?"
As he said this, he stuffed the ice cream into Qin Sheng's hand, who was about to speak, and smiled politely, "It's melting quickly."
Qin Sheng tore open the package and licked it with a wooden face.
Annoying.
