Adored Koi in the ’70s

Hi AKIT7 readers, I started a blog where I jot down interesting Chinese phrase. You can learn these phrases along with me here!

Qiao Zhen Guo made a fool of himself that night. Fortunately, all the people present that day were their own people. Only Wan Chun Ju was so furious that she almost vomited blood.

The next day, Wan Chun Ju was still upset at the thought of it: "Why did you treat You Rou as me last night? Am I just a dog in your eyes?"

Qiao Zhen Guo scratched his forehead and said, "Wife, how can you compare with You Rou? You are much heavier than You Rou!"

On this day, the man's screams rang out again in first branch's rented house.

It was also on this day, Qiao Zhen Guo had two more claw marks on his face. He explained to the guests again that they from a wild cat.

Qiao Xiu Zhi saw the scratches on her eldest son's face and didn't bother to pay attention to him at all. But he was strictly forbidden to drink alcohol in the future!

Qiao Zhen Guo felt that his mom didn't love him as much as before and was aggrieved.

——

A day later, Qiao Dong He's mother-in-law finally arrived in the capital.

Qiao Dong He originally wanted to go to the train station to pick her up. Don't know if she ate the wrong thing or because she was too nervous, her stomach began to feel uncomfortable when she was heading out.

Seeing her like this, Luo Jun Liang wanted to take her to the hospital. However, Qiao Dong He stopped him.

"I'm fine. I'll rest at home for a while. You'd better go to the train station to pick up Mom. The train will arrive soon!" She said with a pale face.

Luo Jun Liang held her cold little hand and worriedly expressed, "Are you really all right? You don't look too good. Let's go to the hospital first. We'll explain to her later. She will understand."

"No. You better go. I'm really fine. How can I not know my own body? Although Mom has been to the capital before, the city has developed so rapidly in the past two years. Aren't you worried about her getting lost?"

Qiao Dong He smiled bitterly. Her mother-in-law could understand her son, but she would never understand her daughter-in-law.

After all, she was his own mother. Of course, Luo Jun Liang was worried.

He originally wanted to ask a colleague or a friend to help pick her up, but Qiao Donghe told him to go over in person. So he went.

After seeing her husband leave, Qiao Dong He returned to the living room and slumped on the small sofa. Her mind was so nervous that she was about to convulse.

She didn't blame anyone. She just hate herself for being so useless!

To actually be afraid to this point! No wonder her grandmother and Younger Sister said they were so disappointed in her.

She was so useless!

After resting on the sofa for a while, her stomach didn't seem to hurt so much. She glanced around, stood up, and took a basin to fetch water from outside.

Although she didn't spend much time with her mother-in-law, those few days were enough for her to remember deeply.

That was why she had to scrub all the places before her mother-in-law came. Although she usually cleaned and the place wasn't dirty at all, her mind was still worried about being her pickiness.

Seeing her go out to fetch water with big belly, the elder sister who lives next door kindly reminded her: "This kind of heavy work should be left to your man to do for you. If anything happens, it will be too late to regret it!"

Qiao Dong He smiled gratefully at her: "Thank you, Elder Sister Lan. Jun Liang went to pick up my mother-in-law. I'm not heavy pregnant now. I can still do some light work."

This person called Elder Sister Lan congratulated her when hearing that her mother-in-law was coming: "This is wonderful. Your mother-in-law has experience in giving birth to children. When the time comes, it will be better than your man taking care of you in confinement!"

When Qiao Dong He heard this, the smile on her face suddenly falter a little.

Elder Sister Lan didn't see notice unusual about her. The two chatted for a few more words and then separated.

Qiao Dong He went back with the water and scrubbed the inside and outside of the ten-square dorm. When the hand touched it, not a single dust was seen.

She slumped contentedly on the sofa.

On Luo Jun Liang's side, he met a postgraduate classmate on the way over. This chat stop delayed for some time. When he arrived at the train station, the train his mom was on had already arrived at the station.

Mother Luo sat on the bench. Her face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

Luo Jun Liang felt his heart drummed a little at this sight. He ran over and was scolded before he could open his mouth!

"Why don't you guys come and pick me up again next year? How long has it been since the train arrived and not a shadow of you two could be seen. Do you see me as your mother?"

Mother Luo had always been relatively hot-tempered. In the past, she would be reasonable. But the last two years, her personality had spiraled more and more downward.

At her age, it was the time for menopause. Suspicious and doubt became embedded in her personality. Even her man, Luo Qing couldn't stand her.

Luo Jun Liang saw the surrounding eyes land on him and his face flushed: "Mom, I met a classmate when I came out and was delayed for a while. Usually the train is late, I didn't expect the train to be on time today!"

Mother Luo's eyes kept looking behind him, but she couldn't see Qiao Dong He.

Her sparse brows raised up and uttered, "Where's your wife? Didn't she come?"

Luo Jun Liang explained: "Mom, Dong He was supposed to come. But when we were about to head out, her stomach was suddenly unwell. So I told her not to come."

There were so many people at the train station. It would be bad if someone bumped her. Him alone was enough.

Mother Luo's thin lips twitched and criticized, "What great timing to be unwell! Only when heading out it happens. I think she did it on purpose. She doesn't place me, her mother-in-law, any importance at all!"

She met a woman about the same age as her on the train. Coincidentally, her son was also a postgraduate student in the capital. So the two of them kept bragging about their son's intelligence, obedience and filial piety. Both wanted to prove that their son was smarter, more obedient, and more filial.

However, the son of the other party wasn't married yet. Mother Luo mentally felt she won the other party on this point.

So she boasted about how her daughter-in-law was filial to her. When she told her to go east and she didn't dare to go west and vice versa.

She had declared that her son and daughter-in-law must be waiting to pick her up at the station long ago. Anyway, she came to the capital to enjoy life!

Unexpectedly, after arriving at the station, the two's sons were nowhere to be seen; which was very awkward.

What was even more embarrassing was that the woman's son arrived at the train station within ten minutes and bought food for the woman. While her clever, obedient and filial son and daughter-in-law were nowhere to be seen!

At that time, she felt the woman's gaze was filled with mockery. She had never been so humiliated in her life!

Since then, a fire had been burning in her heart.

Now that she found out that her daughter-in-law didn't come, how could she hold back?

Seeing his mom like this, Luo Jun Liang also felt that his head was big: "Mom, it's not like that. How can Dong He be that kind of person? She is really unwell. And she has your grandson or granddaughter in her belly. Aren't you afraid that she will be bumped by someone when she comes?"

Mother Luo pondered about it and felt it made sense. She suppressed the anger in her heart for a while, stood up and spoke, "Let's go. What are you standing there for? Do you think it's not embarrassing enough?"

Luo Jun Liang rubbed his nose, picked up the seven or eight bags his mom brought, and quickly followed.

Now he finally understood a little why his wife was so nervous.

Once back in the dorm, Mother Luo didn't point at Qiao Dong He's nose to scold her for not picking her up for her grandson's sake. Still, her words were snarky and made Qiao Dong He's heart blocked to the max.

After Mother Luo finished eating, she started to touch here and look there. But the place was just cleaned by Qiao Dong He. She couldn't find any fault if she wanted to.

Since Mother Luo couldn't find a mistake and it was the first day that she came here, she let her go for the time being.

Seeing this, Qiao Dong He breathed a sigh of relief.

Wang Xian Xian was reach the point of obsession with when it came to the vice president, Huo Chi.

Just when she mustered up the courage to write a letter to express her feelings to the other party, she suddenly saw him standing downstairs of their dormitory.

Wang Xian Xian's heart beat wildly and she ran over to him in ecstasy. She coyly spoke, "Senior Brother Huo, hello!"

Huo Chi glanced at her and expressionlessly responded, "En."

Wang Xian Xian was nervous and overjoyed when she saw him recognizing her: "Senior Brother Huo, I'm Wang Xian Xian from the etiquette department. Maybe you don't know me, but I really admire you, Senior Brother Huo!"

Huo Chi didn't answer her this time.

The reason why he knew Wang Xian Xian was not because she was a member of the student union, nor because she was beautiful. But because she was Da Qiao's roommate.

As long as there was anyone or something related to Da Qiao, he will try to get the fact straight.

Sensing his sudden indifference, Wang Xian Xian felt a little depressed. Still, she mustered up the courage to find a topic, "Senior Brother Huo, why are you here? Are you waiting for someone?"

This time Huo Chi nodded: "Well, I'm waiting for my girlfriend."

I am waiting for my girlfriend.

Wait for my girlfriend.

My girlfriend.

Girlfriend.

Friend.

These words played back and forth in Wang Xian Xian's mind like an echo. It was like a thunderbolt falling from the sky and struck on her whole body.

Senior Brother Huo had a girlfriend?

When did this happen? She clearly asked the student union and everyone said he had no match!

At this moment, a soft voice came from behind her: "Elder Brother Huo Chi."

The voice made her tremble and she recovered from her daze.

She turned around at once and found Da Qiao wearing a white dress walking out of the door of the dormitory building.

The previously indifferent Huo Chi had a bright smile on his face. Then he walked towards her with his long legs.

Wang Xian Xian: !!!

So his girlfriend was Da Qiao?

Her roommate!!!

Huo Chi walked towards Da Qiao and eyed her: "You are so beautiful today!"

In the past, he was embarrassed to say such sickly sweet thing. But after getting stimulated by Dong Yun last time. He felt that if he didn't work hard, he would be crushed by Da Qiao's younger siblings.

In fact, the first time saying such affectionate words was the hardest. Once it was said, it was like an opened Pandora's box that can no longer be stopped.

Huo Chi's face was much thicker now than before. Although all kinds of compliments weren't easy to come by, they were also very handy.

Da Qiao curved her lips into a smile. The dimples at the corner of her mouth was shallow: "Thank you Elder Brother Huo Chi. But this dress was given to me by Elder Brother Huo Chi. Does this count as the potter praising his own pot?"

Huo Chi shook his head: "No. The pot has to be good-looking for it to work. If it is a distorted melon or cracked jujube, even dressing it up with a royal robe, it would be useless!"

When he mentioned distorted melons and cracked jujubes, Huo Chi glanced at the approaching Wang Xian Xian. The meaning was self-evident.

Wang Distorted Melon Xian Xian: "..."

Da Qiao had a very bad impression of Wang Xian Xian. Even if she came over, she didn't plan to talk to her. As she chatted with Huo Chi, they were about to leave.

Wang Xian Xian quickly stopped her and spoke, "Da Qiao, is Senior Brother Huo your match? Why don't I know about this?"

Da Qiao pulled her hand away and replied, "Elder Brother Huo Chi is indeed my match. However, we aren't familiar with each other. I don't think I need to tell you!"

After speaking, she and Huo Chi turned around and left.

Huo Chi didn't give her a second look from beginning to end.

Wang Xian Xian: Her love had yet to start and her heart was broken.

She watched the two of them depart. Handsome guy and pretty girl. The compatible sight of their back was enough for her eyes to turn red!

Huo Chi took Da Qiao out to eat.

After the meal, they were about to go back to school when it suddenly started to rain.

The place to eat wasn't far from the school. It wasn't a heavy rain. Da Qiao thought it wasn't a problem to run back. Unexpectedly, Huo Chi disallowed.

Huo Chi asked her to wait for him in the store and said to her, "I'll go to the small store over there to buy an umbrella and not get you soaked. You are so cute. What if you get wet in the rain and sprout."

Da Qiao, who was fed a mouthful of candy, was caught off guard: Elder Brother Huo Chi is so good at flirting with me!

The author had something to say: Da Qiao: so cute to the point of sprouting.jpg
