Deep love is also heartless

Chapter 148 Satisfaction

Orange likes this happy atmosphere very much. Although she finds it noisy, she also feels very warm. In particular, Meng Xin is not only excellent in housework, but also very good at coaxing grandparents. Although Meng Xin has been here for less than two months, grandparents have gained weight.

Meng Xin cares a lot about Orange's life, but she is always a little cautious. However, Orange can feel that Meng Xin really cares about her, which makes her feel satisfied.

After eating New Year's Eve dumplings at half past ten, Juzi took the lunch box and excitedly went to deliver the dumplings to Meng Mancang. When she went out, she found that Qiao Lieque had already arrived.

Juzi ran over and saw Qiao Lieque asleep. Juzi knocked on the window, and Qiao Lieque woke up in shock and quickly opened the car door.

Orange got in the car and asked, "When did you come? Why didn't you call me?"

Qiao Lieque: "Not much longer."

Orange said distressedly, "Didn't I tell you to sleep at home? You can fall asleep even when firecrackers are going off everywhere, and you still come to pick me up. Are you afraid that I won't feel uncomfortable?"

Qiao Lieque held Ju Zi's head in his arms and said, "But I feel very happy."

It was too lonely to go home alone, he couldn't stand the loneliness, he would rather visit Orange's home which was warmer, but Orange was too careless and didn't even notice that Qiao Lieque's car was not started.

Qiao Lieque drove to deliver dumplings to Meng Mancang first. Because he had to work the night shift, Meng Mancang came to the mall after the reunion dinner. Orange felt a little regretful that the dumplings were missing his father.

Meng Mancang looked at the couple laughing foolishly, took the dumplings with his hands open and said, "I can smell the fragrance of dumplings."

Juzi said a few words to Meng Mancang and left. Meng Mancang kept watching until the car disappeared before he took the dumplings back to the lounge.

Old Zhang, who was in the same class with him, said with a smile: "You knew the mall was giving away dumplings, but you still bothered your daughter."

Meng Mancang smiled contentedly and said, "How can it be the same? I ate New Year's Eve dumplings with my daughter eighteen years ago. Although we can't sit together to eat this year, we can eat dumplings from the same pot, which also counts as eating together."

When Juzi and Qiao Lieque returned to the Qiao family villa, they washed their hands and started making dumplings. They finished in a short while. Looking at the clock, it was eleven forty. Juzi cooked a pot of dumplings first. After taking the dumplings out, she put the pot curtain in the pot, then put the dumplings on top and covered the pot with a lid.

The two people took the firecrackers and went to set them off. Then they went back to the house laughing. The TV station was preparing to count down, and the two people brought out the dumplings. When the host called out five, the two people put the dumplings into their mouths at the same time.

When the New Year's bell rang, the two of them raised their glasses. Qiao Lieque was a little excited and said in a hoarse voice: "Juzi, Happy New Year, and good luck."

Orange said coquettishly: "I wish Mr. Qiao Lieque a successful career and lots of money."

After saying this, the two of them drank the glass of wine.

Since neither of them was hungry, they symbolically took two bites of the pig's trotter and ate a few dumplings before putting it down.

Qiao Lieque asked in confusion: "Juzi, I understand why you say eating dumplings. They symbolize reunion, but why do we have to eat pig's trotters at midnight?"

Orange shook his head and said, "Because I want to make money."

Qiao Lieque smiled so hard that his eyebrows were raised: "Pig trotters scratching money?"

Orange said proudly: "You don't understand, right? Pigs are easy to raise and fat? They are a symbol of wealth, so you can get rich by scratching money with pig's trotters."

Qiao Lieque said with a smile: "Then you should eat the pig's mouth. Look at how big and fat the pig's mouth is."

Juzi glared at him and said, "Don't argue with me. We've all been following the tradition for thousands of years, why are you the only one who's causing trouble?"

Qiao Lieque immediately apologized: "Okay, I was wrong. Eating pig's trotters is a waste of money."

As he said this, he quickly took two more bites of the pig's trotter.
