Chapter 37

"Okay." Xu Baiyu smiled: "But I'm actually not very good at it, and the ones that come out are pretty ugly. You can teach me later."

"Okay." Yu Jing let go of him, but still kept close to him: "Teach me hand in hand later."

However, they still failed to achieve "holding hands" in the end, because Xu Baiyu felt that it would be better to be more stable in front of the elders because of the presence of the old man.So in the end it became Yu Jing who made the bag alone, and Xu Baiyu helped him roll the skin.

"The dumpling wrapper can be thinner." Yu Jing couldn't bear to look at the half-wrapped noodles, so she took the rolling pin from Xu Baiyu's hand and showed him in person: "If you do this, the rolled dumpling wrapper can be rolled out again." Round and thin."

"Yu Jing, don't be so picky." Old Master Yu was holding a glass of water at the side, and joked with a smile: "I think Xiao Xu is doing pretty well."

"Dad," Yu Jing deliberately made a look of helplessness: "You can't be so partial."

Xu Baiyu smiled heartily, with a hint of arrogance and arrogance: "Did you hear that, it was not bad like that just now."

"I heard, you guys are really bullying together." Yu Jing smiled at him, as gentle as usual.

After the dumplings were out of the pot, Yu Jing first filled a bowl for his deceased mother, and brought it in front of the black and white photos in the bedroom.Xu Baiyu accompanied him there, looked at the woman smiling gently and kindly in the black and white photo, and bowed slowly.

He silently thought, Auntie, I will be with Yu Jing in the future, don't worry.

Yu Jing also stood there without making a sound, Xu Baiyu didn't know what he was thinking, but just stood with him.After a while, Yu Jing took his hand and led him out of the house.

"Dad, let's eat." Yu Jing walked to the living room and said with a smile, "Come here quickly."

Xu Baiyu filled out the dumplings and brought them to the dining table.The sound of firecrackers outside was one after another, Xu Baiyu listened silently, and suddenly laughed: "Yu Jing, let's go for a walk after dinner."

"What are you going out for?" Yu Jing smiled and picked up a pan-fried lotus root for him: "Don't you think it's cold?"

"It's Chinese New Year, who thinks it's cold?" Xu Baiyu blinked at him: "Go out and have a look, it's so boring to stay at home."

"You go out." Yu Cheng "abandoned" his son again, and said to Xu Baiyu without principle: "I can't stay up all night, and I'm going to sleep after eating and digesting food. It's better to go out and have a look." It's better to be bored at home."

"Dad, who is your real son? I wanted to be lazy on New Year's Eve." Yu Jing said helplessly, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

After the New Year's Eve dinner, Xu Baiyu helped Yu Jing clean the dishes, and the two said hello to Yu Cheng and went downstairs.The street lamps in the neighborhood were glowing with warm light. As soon as Xu Baiyu went out, he saw a young father with his young son setting off firecrackers.

"Son, stay away." The father smiled and carried his son to the door of the building. When he came over, he smiled at Xu Baiyu and Yu Jing who were standing there.

Yu Jing returned a smiling face: "Brother Zheng, Happy Chinese New Year."

"Xiao Yu, Happy Chinese New Year." Brother Zheng is Yu Jing's upstairs neighbor, and he is smiling sincerely at this time: "How is Teacher Yu recently?"

"Very good." Yu Jing said as she rubbed the hair of the little boy beside her.The little boy was hugging Yu Jing's leg and did not let go, Yu Jing smiled and picked him up: "Xuanxuan, let's watch your father light firecrackers together."

Xu Baiyu leaned over and gently covered the little boy's ears.The father walked to the place where the firecrackers were set just now, took out a match from his pocket, lit a firecracker, bent down and lit the fuse of the firecracker, then hurriedly ran to the door of the building with a smile, and took it from Yu Jing's arms. own son.

Amidst the crackling sound, the light of the fire added a bit of brightness to the surrounding night.The little boy was not afraid, and he broke free from his father's hands covering his ears.The four of them stood downstairs together, listening to the crackling sound not far away, but their hearts were extremely peaceful and stable.

"Xiao Yu, let's go home first." After the firecrackers were burned out, Big Brother Zheng turned around and wanted to go back with the little boy in his arms: "The kid's mother is waiting at home."

"Okay." Yu Jing smiled: "Go back quickly."

Brother Zheng smiled again, and then went upstairs.Xu Baiyu could vaguely hear the baby boy's voice in the corridor.The kid said to his dad, "I want fried chicken."

Xu Baiyu hugged Yu Jing, and leaned sideways on this person's shoulder: "When you were young, Teacher Yu took you out to play like this, right?"

"Yes." Yu Jing put her arms around Xu Baiyu: "At that time he played with me almost every day, and took me out after work." He squinted his eyes and recalled carefully: "Until I was in middle school."

Xu Baiyu didn't speak anymore, and Yu Jing really wanted to stand quietly for a while.I don't know how long it took, and fireworks were suddenly set off not far away.

Xu Baiyu looked up in a daze, and murmured: "It's really a coincidence that we came down."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Jing who was beside him suddenly grabbed his shoulders, rubbed against his lips lightly, then turned around and looked up to the sky as if nothing had happened.

"Mr. Yu," Xu Baiyu poked the man's shoulder helplessly, and after Yu Jing turned around, he leaned over and said close to the man's mouth, "Taking advantage is not such a way to take advantage."

Yu Jing smiled and said, "Then how do you account for it?"

Xu Baiyu shook his head, stretched out his arms to pull him over, leaned towards the man amidst the sound of fireworks and firecrackers, bit the man's lip, and kissed him for a long time before letting go.

"Okay, let's go home." Xu Baiyu felt that this year was enough, and said contentedly: "You also go to bed early, don't stay up late, and don't forget that you have to go for a review next month."

However, before he had time to step up the first step, he was dragged back downstairs by Yu Jing's arms.Yu Jing pushed him against the wall, and asked in a low voice, "I don't stay up all night, what about you? Wouldn't it be boring to watch the new year by yourself?"

"I don't suffer either." Xu Baiyu smiled, and put his hand around Yu Jing's chin: "The bed is warm, and there is such a good-looking person beside me. I'm not stupid, why bother?"

"That's good." Yu Jing held his hand, her eyes reflected the New Year's Eve night and thousands of lights: "Go home."

Xu Baiyu took one round of rest during the New Year's Eve, and Xu Jianye contacted him, saying that he wanted to meet Li Yan with him during the New Year's Eve.But Xu Baiyu really didn't think about how to face that person, so he just went to grandma's house to sit for a while, trying to push the matter back.Yu Jing knew his entanglement and embarrassment, so she didn't expose him, and kept letting him go.

The New Year holidays are coming to an end soon.Yu Jing took old man Yu to the Provincial Mental Health Center, and would still go to stay with her father for a while before and after get off work every day.Xu Baiyu held his breath until he returned home from get off work on the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, and he said to Jing with a sad face, "Old Yu, can you accompany me to see my parents?"

"Let me accompany you to meet them?" Yu Jing smiled helplessly: "Okay."

"It's very easy for you to agree." Xu Baiyu peeled open the orange, tasted a piece first, and stuffed the rest into the man's mouth: "It's quite sweet."

The oranges are really sweet, which made Yu Jing's smile deepen: "Is it the weekend? I remember that your last off-duty was this weekend."

"Yes." Xu Baiyu nodded, "You should have time, right?"

"There is time. But," Yu Jing said thoughtfully, "This is the first time I see my parents, so I can't be empty-handed, right?" He sighed and looked at Xu Baiyu: "Why do I feel a little nervous. "

"Why are you nervous?" Xu Baiyu pushed him lightly, "You don't even need to perform normally, just say a few words."

"What can I do then?" Yu Jing rubbed Xu Baiyu's face, "You will accompany me to the mall after get off work tomorrow, and let's buy some gifts for the two elders."

"It's so grand? Buying gifts?" Xu Baiyu curled his lips: "All right, I will reluctantly agree to you."

"I have to make a good impression on them." Yu Jing smiled: "Otherwise, they won't trust me to give their son to me."

Xu Baiyu didn't speak any more, and leaned lightly on the other person's body.

On the weekend, Xu Baiyu stayed at home until almost noon, and was dragged out by Yu Jing in the end.He and Yu Jing went to the private room that Xu Jianye had told him before, and when they opened the door and entered, they saw both Xu Jianye and Li Yan sitting inside.The two of them were far apart, looking down at their phones.

"Baiyu, you are here." Li Yan was sitting near the door, she looked up at Xu Baiyu, but her eyes finally fell on the young man who was following behind Xu Baiyu.Xu Baiyu didn't say in advance that he would come with Yu Jing, and Li Yan didn't realize it for a while, she was a little confused: "This is..."

"This is Yu Jing, my boyfriend." Xu Baiyu held Yu Jing's shoulders: "Yu Jing, these two are me..." For Xu Baiyu, the words "parents" have not been seen in front of him for a long time. The two people shouted at each other, and he suddenly didn't know what to say.

Fortunately, Yu Jing immediately took over the words. The man smiled gently and said warmly, "Uncle, Auntie, hello." After speaking, he handed over the gift prepared in advance.

"It's less than." Xu Jianye kept looking at the door since they entered the door: "Sit down quickly."

"Hey." Yu Jing hurriedly responded, dragging Xu Baiyu over to sit down.

At this time, the food hadn't been served yet, and the four people in the room were sitting dryly, looking at each other from time to time.But this embarrassment didn't last long, Xu Jianye cleared his throat first, and put on a smile: "You are also a local from Yaocheng, right?"

"Yes." Yu Jing nodded with a smile, "I'm from our local area."

"That's pretty good." Xu Jianye joked: "I guess you can eat as a family, and there won't be a big difference in diet."

Yu Jing nodded with a smile, thinking silently in her heart: Yao Huan asked him about his age and job before, so it is estimated that Xu Jianye will ask about education and family next.

Sure enough, Xu Jianye then asked, "Where did you study at the University?"

Yu Jing looked at him with a smile: "At the Polytechnic University."

Xu Jianye nodded: "Whenever I have time again, the parents of our two families can meet."

"Uncle Xu, to be honest, my mother has passed away." Yu Jing looked at Xu Jianye and said frankly: "My father has been in poor health for the past few years, because of Alzheimer's disease. Baiyu and I met in the hospital .”
