Adored Koi in the ’70s

Chapter 152



When it happened, everyone was entering the classroom and was preparing for the exam. Who knew that at this time, a teacher from the Academic Affairs office came over and called Class Monitor out.

At first, everyone didn't think much. Only when Class Monitor came back to pack with a pale face, everyone found it a little strange.

"Old Class, what are you doing? It's almost time for the exam, why are you packing?"

"Yeah. It can't be that the teacher asked you to help him with some things now? Doesn't he know that you're about to take the exam?"

"That's right! Old Class, go and tell the teacher. Don't let the exam be affected because of other things. With your grades, you will definitely be able to get a scholarship!"

When Class Monitor heard everyone's words, he never raised his head or said a word. Just quietly packed his things.

After tidying up, he initially planned to directly leave. But the moment he raised his left foot, he paused. Turning around, he bowed to everyone: "I can't study with you in the future. Everyone take care! Also... I'm sorry everyone!"

After speaking, his eyes fell on Da Qiao on the right. It was only a glance.

He quickly retracted his gaze, turned around, and strode out without looking back.

When everyone heard what the class montior's statement, they thought he was joking with everyone.

If it wasn't for a joke, why would he utter ‘take care' and ‘sorry'?

Although Class Monitor wasn't lively person, he liked to be sharp-tongued. From time to time, he will give everyone a jab. Everyone loved and hated him.

Right at this time, him leaving without looking back and everyone stunned.

What was going on?

The exam was less than ten minutes away. Why did he leave at this time? He's not take the exam?

When everyone came back to their senses, the invigilator had arrived. Everyone wanted to go after Class Monitor to ask what was going on but can't.

Da Qiao quietly sat in her seat. Recalling the look Class Monitor gave her just now, she had a hunch that Class Monitor wouldn't come back.

The invigilator declared at the front that cheating was forbidden. And if they want to go to the toilet, go to the toilet quickly. Da Qiao silently sighed and then turned her attention back.

The most important thing now was the exam. The rest can be discussed after the exam.

When the invigilator collected the last test paper and walked out of the classroom with the test paper in hands, there were wails and howls in the classroom.

"Heaven want to kill me too! Such a difficult topic! The professor doesn't want us to have a good year at all, right?"

"I'm dead! I've waffled a lot of it. Damn, there are a good few questions in the test paper that are beyond the syllabus. The professor is too much!!"

"We're too young. The professor told us that this exam isn't difficult and I bloody believed it!"

"Let's not discuss the test questions for now. Class Monitor hadn't come back yet. I want to ask the head teacher. Do any of you want to go with me?"

Da Qiao suddenly came over and interjected.

It was only then that everyone remembered Class Monitor had never returned. It was at this time that everyone realized that something was wrong.

The other thirty-two people in the entire class all expressed their desire to go together.

Though Class Monitor's mouth was sharp, he was a very conscientious and good class monitor. Under his leadership, everyone was very friendly and harmonious. Now that something happened to him, everyone was worried.

Everyone went to the Academic Affairs Building together. Since so many people went there together, it grabbed passersby's attention.

Da Qiao walked among a group of boys, like the queen moon among all the stars. Everyone's eyes landed on her the most.

Everyone went to the Academic Affairs Office. The head teacher was unwilling to tell them the truth. Just told them not to ask anything and that they would find out later.

When everyone heard the head teacher's words, their hearts became more and more unsettled.

Those who were dorm mates with Class Monitor discovered all of Class Monitor's belongings were taken away after returning to the dorm.

Suddenly, it dawned on everyone that things were more serious than they thought.

After all the exams were over, the head teacher finally told them the truth: Class Monitor's admission letter wasn't his own, but that he used someone else's!

Hearing the head teacher's explanation, everyone was completely stunned.

How was this possible? !

The class monitor they knew had a good personality and excellent performance. He was a very bright and reliable young man. How could he do such a despicable thing?

But the fact was in front of them. If he didn't steal it, Class Monitor would definitely fiercely resist back then. He would never pack up and leave without saying a word.

And he apologized to everyone at the end.

Everyone's heart was full of mixed feelings. They didn't know what to say.

Because the exams were all over, everyone packed up and left one after another. Class Monitor's matter was gradually buried in the depths of everyone's memory.

Da Qiao told Huo Chi what happened in the class.

After Huo Chi found out, he indifferently commented, "No matter what difficulties he has, it is against the law to steal other people's admission notices. Whatever great reasons it is, it's not worthy of sympathy!"

Da Qiao puffed out a breath of white smoke: "I know. If it weren't for such a thing, everyone would definitely intercede for him. Classmates don't know what to feel."

Huo Chi was tasting vinegar when she kept mentioning another boy. He grabbed her little hand and put it in his own coat pocket and squeezed it, "Alright. That kind of person isn't worth your energy. Since he has already dropped out, don't bring him up again."

There weren't many pedestrians on the road at this time. With the two of them so close to each other, no one noticed his small action.

"En, let's not talk about it. By the way, An Jie, are you going to come to our house for the New Year this year?"

His coat was extremely warm. Da Qiao glanced at him sideways and reciprocated his action. She squeezed his hand.

Unlike her soft, boneless hands, his hands were so hard that it wasn't fun to squeeze at all.

In the past, Huo Family went all the way to the countryside to spend time with Qiao Family. Over the years, everyone got along like family.

But this year Qiao Family moved to the capital. Since everyone was in the capital, Da Qiao asked this question.

Huo Chi nodded without hesitation: "Naturally, we're going to spend it together. In the past, we still went over even when it was far away. It'll be strange now we're close and don't get together, no?"

Da Qiao happily nodded: "En, Elder Brother Huo Chi, you're right."

Seeing no one around, Huo Chi raised his head and rubbed her little head, "Quickly pack up. I'll be waiting for you below."

Because Da Qiao didn't have much to bring back, she refused when Huo Chi offered to help her pack.

Da Qiao mischievously made a funny face at him before running away with a grin.

Huo Chi watched her bouncing back. The corners of his mouth hooked up.

Seeing Da Qiao coming back, Cai Ru Nan remarked with a reluctant expression, "Da Qiao, I don't want to part with you!"

Da Qiao looked up at her: "Then why don't you go to my house for the New Year?"

Cai Ru Nan's eyes lit up. Afterward, she shook her head: "My mom will break my dog's legs with a rolling pin if I did!"

Da Qiao pursed her lips into a smile.

Cai Ru Nan was the only person who can carefreely call herself a dog.

The rest in the dorm were packing their things in silence. No one spoke.

The Wang Xian Xian trio, who used to share a common foe and seemed indestructible, were no longer close. They stopped eating together during their class break.

Especially after Song Yu Lian noticed Wang Xian Xian was no longer giving her snacks or small gifts. She stopped being Wang Xian Xian's licking dog.

Chen Xiao Lan also gradually distanced herself from Wang Xian Xian. Truly plastic sisterly flowers.

Da Qiao didn't have many things and soon finished packing up. She gave Cai Ru Nan a head up and walked out of the dormitory.

When she came downstairs, she found that snow floating in the sky again. With a blow of the cold wind, the pedestrians on the road shivered and turned into cold birds.

Seeing her come down, Huo Chi quickly walked up, took off his coat, and put it over her head, "Let's go. The car is waiting outside."

Da Qiao felt that Elder Brother Huo Chi was caring. Her heart felt more warmed up than drinking ginger tea.

——

In the blink of an eye, it was New Year's Eve.

This year, everyone arranged to reunite in second branch's courtyard.

Both Qiao Hong Xia and Qiao Yue Ming didn't come back this year. Qiao Hong Xia was too far away. Qiao Yue Ming's reason was because her youngest son had a fever. Now that it was freezing cold, she dared not take him out again.

Qiao Zhen Min's family of four came.

Chu Sheng Mei's previous in-laws were very dissatisfied with this. Dissatisfaction was useless. Chu Sheng Mei was no longer under their control.

When Qiao Dong Wan saw her elder sister, her slender eyes seemed to be full of stars: "Elder Sister, I brought you a lot of snacks from Nanshan County. What do you like to eat?"

She dearly missed Elder Sister, but was embarrassed to say it outright.

Da Qiao examined her and found that she had grown a lot taller than half a year ago. She curved her lips: "As long as you bought it, Elder Sister likes it!"

When Qiao Dong Wan heard this, the stars in her eyes brightened.

Seeing his eldest daughter clinging to Da Qiao as soon as they came back, Qiao Zhen Min became more resolute in his decision to move to the capital next year!

Qiao Dong He was already married. According to the custom, she should go back to Luo's house with Luo Jun Liang to celebrate the New Year. But because of what happened this year, she didn't want to go back.

In addition, her belly reached seven months old. The weather was freezing and the ground was ice. It was definitely unsuitable to go back. In order to take care of her, Luo Jun Liang also came to Qiao's house to celebrate the New Year.

Once Mother Luo knew that the two of them won't come back for the New Year, she scolded before the year end and all the way up to New Year's Eve. Luo Qing had enough of her. Completely giving up on celebrating, he hid in the store.

Seeing the murky atmosphere at home every day, Younger Son hid at his friend's house. Looking at the cold and empty house, Mother Luo sat on the ground and howling wailed.

The surrounding neighbors pouted when they heard the cry. But no one came to comfort her, because they had been berated by Mother Luo in the past few months.

That was why no one wanted to stick a hot face on a cold butt now!

Qiao Family's side was all harmonious and jolly. Even Wan Chun Ju didn't dare to act up. If she dares to cause trouble on such an important day, her mother-in-law will definitely drive her out.

Qiao Zhen Guo's bald patch hadn't healed yet. The baldness had become his characteristic. Some guests, who go to eat in the restaurant sometimes and didn't remember the name of the restaurant, would call it the place where the boss got a bald forehead.

If it were someone else, he would probably be very depressed. Fortunately, Qiao Zhen Guo had a big heart. The baldness didn't affect his appetite or sleep.

It was worth mentioning that the relationship between him and Qiao You Rou has eased a lot.

When Qiao Family cooked a big feast, it wasn't the women working away as the men idly waited to eat. The whole family was hands on. Even four-years-old little Mi Bao was assigned to wrap the dumplings.

The task of wrapping dumplings this year was left to the group of younger generations.

Huo Chi's hands were very adept. When he was little, he could make up the zodiac signs for Da Qiao. Now he can make ingot-shaped dumplings. The dumplings were full and exact replicas of each other. Quite neat and beautiful.

Da Qiao glanced at his and then at her own. She sighed softly, "Elder Brother Huo Chi, how come after so many years, I still can't compare to you in making dumplings?"

Huo Chi glanced down at her and smiled, "Isn't that better. I'll make dumplings in our family in the future. You can just wait and eat."

When he said this, his voice was low enough that only two people could hear it.

Da Qiao looked up at him. Her red lips opened with the slyness of a little fox: "Elder Brother Huo Chi, your face got dirty. I'll wipe it for you."

Despite saying that, she didn't wipe her hands clean. Instead, she touched his face with her floured hands.

Huo Chi could tell at a glance that she was being naughty. He didn't dodge and let her make his face dirty.

Da Qiao tapped a small white dot on his nose. Then another two small white dots on the corner of his mouth. It looked so funny that she couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Though Huo Chi helplessly watched her be mischievous, his eyes were full of doting.

The corner of Qiao Dong Ying's mouth curled up when she saw this scene.

During this return, everyone can clearly sense the change in Qiao Dong Ying. Not in appearance, but in her whole aura.

In the past, Qiao Dong Ying always gave people a feeling of being cold and unapproachable. Outsiders thought she was cold and cool. However, her heart was full of inferiority. This time, everyone felt that she was more at peace and smiled more than before.

Qiao Xiu Zhi and Xue Chuan were very happy when they saw this change.

This year's feast wasn't cooked by Xue Chuan and Qiao Xiu Zhi. The two of them sat in the study, drinking tea and enjoying the snow.

At this time, Xue Chuan was painting Chinese paintings on rice paper. While he was at it, he said to his wife, "Once Dong He gives birth to the baby, let's go on a holiday."

They had spoken of it before, but it was delayed because of various things.

Sitting in the chair opposite him, Qiao Xiu Zhi was holding a book in her hand. She happily nodded: "Okay. Can't delay it this time no matter what."

The two looked at each other and smiled.

There were a few branches of red plum sticking by the window. The red plum blossoms were quietly blooming and the cold fragrance filled the room.

——

When it was time for the feast, everyone was packed in one room. Lively and rowdily, they gathered around three tables.

Plentiful people and bountiful dishes. Big fish and meat. A wonderful meal. Lin Hui and An Ping were in charge of the wooden spoon today. Both of them excelled at cooking. Everyone unanimously gave high praise to the taste of the food.

Little Mi Bao will be five years old after New Year. She learned to eat by herself when she was two years old. Right now, she was biting a dumpling with her pearl-like teeth. Her brows were furrowed, as if she was very troubled.

Qiao An Jie is a good elder brother. He asked her: "Little Mi Bao, what's wrong? Are the dumplings too hot? Elder Brother can blow it?"

Little Mi Bao shook her head. Her eyes narrowed in delight: "It's not hot at all. Elder Brother An Jie, you're so nice!"

Qiao An Jie's face turned slightly red: "It's good that it's not hot. Then quickly eat."

As he spoke, he clipped another dumpling for her and put it in her small bowl.

Little Mi Bao looked at the dumpling in the bowl. Suddenly, she sighed like an adult: "It's putting me on a spot! Elder Brother An Jie, how come you and Elder Brother An Xu look so good-looking?"

When everyone heard what she said, they couldn't help but laugh and asked her why she was on the spot.

Little Mi Bao replied: "ELder Brother An Jie and An Xu are both very good-looking, I don't even know who I should marry when I grow up!"

"Hahahaha……"

Everyone burst into laughter when they heard these innocent words.

As the mom, Chu Sheng Mei was slumped on Qiao Zhen Min's shoulders from laughter. Even tears spilled out: "Little Mi Bao, An Jie and An Xu are your brothers. You can't marry them!"

Although there was no blood relationship between the three, they were cousins ​​in the household registration. Naturally they cannot get married.

Little Mi Bao was shocked: "Why? Elder Sister Da Qiao's also calls Elder Brother Huo Chi brother. They can get married, why can't I?"

When everyone heard this, they burst into laughter again.

Little Mi Bao knew that Da Qiao was going to marry Huo Chi because she heard it from little Dong Yun. Little Dong Yun also said that she wanted to marry over together.

Da Qiao blushed from everyone's gaze. Embarrassed to the point she wanted to get out of the room.

Huo Chi was very calm. In the past six months, the level of his sweet words had grown in direct proportion to his face thickness.

He skillfully peeled the shrimp shells and crabs for Da Qiao and filled her small bowl full.

Da Qiao pouted her red mouth: "Elder Brother Huo Chi, don't do it for me. Too much. If I can't finish it later, it'll be a waste."

Huo Chi's voice was low, like coaxing a child: "It's okay. If you can't eat it, give it to me!"

Sure enough, Da Qiao couldn't finish it later. Huo Chi calmly clipped the contents of her bowl and ate it by himself. Not minding at all.

Seeing that the two of them were sweet, everyone showed an aunt-like smile.

Although the relationship between Da Qiao and Huo Chi hadn't been officially announced, it was the same whether it was public or not. Even Little Mi Bao knew. What was there to announce?

After the meal, everyone cleaned up the table together. Then, they came to the living room to sit, chat, and play a card as they waited for countdown.

The children were playing ‘Hoo, Hey and How'. Xue An Xu's luck wasn't great; almost lost his shorts.

Qiao An Jie was worthy of being the smartest child in studying. He even used his knowledge of mathematics to play this kind of small gambling game. However, the other children couldn't understand his explanation.

In the end, it was him who won the most.

Little Mi Bao looked at Elder Brother An Xu, who had lost to nearly selling his pants, and then looked at Elder Brother An Jie, who was holding the lucky money in both hands. She instantly decided that she would marry Elder Brother An Jie in the future!

If she marries Elder Brother An Jie, he can help her win a small amount of money. If she marries Elder Brother An Xu, it is estimated that the shorts will also be lost.

How scary.

Suddenly, there was a crackling sound of firecrackers outside. Qiao Family hurried to set the firecrackers.

An Ping went to light the firecrackers. Somehow he stumbled as he ran and almost exploded his butt.

When everyone saw this, they couldn't help but laugh.

It was unknown who was setting off fireworks outside the yard. Everyone ran out of the yard to watch the fireworks.

Against the dark night canvas, the fireworks lit up the whole sky. It was as bright as a starry sky. Exceedingly beautiful.

Standing next to Dai Shu Fang, Zhong Kang De suddenly said: "We walked through our ignorant childhood together, lost each other in our youth, and now we have found each other again before our twilight years. You are my best friend. No matter whether it's childhood, youth, middle age, or old age, the look of love in your eyes is always what you look like. So—"

Having said that, he took out a red box from his pocket, opened it, and knelt down to her, "So, Ms. Dai Shu Fang, are you willing to marry me and let me accompany you until white hair?"
