Chapter 89 Watching the Ice Lantern Together
Under Jiang Qin's questioning, the system informed Fu Shaoduo of more detailed information about his family.
Fu Shaoduo's father is a worker in Beijing's No. 3 Textile Factory, and his mother is a housewife who stays at home to take care of her son and daughter.
His father died due to a work-related injury. At that time, Fu Shaoduo was only ten years old and his sister Fu Shan was eight years old.
Fu's mother took his father's place and entered the No. 3 Textile Factory in Beijing. She took care of her children while working, and raised Fu Shaoduo and Fu Shan with great difficulty.
It was no problem to support the family by paying her mother's salary alone, but she had to take care of both the factory and home, and was extremely busy.
In order to relieve his mother's burden, Fu Shaoduo started cooking, doing housework, taking care of his younger sister, and helping Fu's mother support the family since he was ten years old.
Later, when he graduated from high school, Fu's mother planned to retire early due to illness and let Fu Shaoduo take over the job.
Fu Shaoduo refused, signed up to join the army, and gave up his position in the textile factory to his sister.
After listening to the system introduction, Jiang Qin fell into silence and did not speak for a long time.
【Host, are you okay?】
The system couldn't help but ask.
Jiang Qin slowly shook his head, "I'm fine. I was just thinking about how difficult it was for Fu Shaoduo when he was a child. He was only ten years old and had to help his mother take care of the house."
She remembered that when she was a child, when she was ten years old, she was still playing like crazy, and even when she was twenty years old, she was not allowed to do any work at home.
It's the same childhood, but the difference is too big.
Jiang Qin subconsciously looked for Fu Shaoduo among the people lining up in front of the ticket gate.
He is tall and straight, standing there is extremely eye-catching and can be seen at a glance.
Jiang Qin found him without much effort.
The team was moving very fast and was almost at Fu Shaoduo.
After a while, Fu Shaoduo bought the ticket, left the team and waved in the direction of Jiang Qin.
He also held two tickets in his hand.
Fu Shaoduo walked quickly to Jiang Qin and handed her one of the tickets and the change.
"I didn't expect that the queue was quite fast, and I bought it in such a short time. The ticket cost 50 cents each, and I still had four yuan left."
Fu Shaoduo smiled and said.
Jiang Qin looked at the tickets and money in his hand, and took them after thinking about it.
"Let's go in."
"Um."
There was also a queue at the door to get in. Jiang Qin and Fu Shaoduo were at the back of the queue, moving forward with the flow of people.
Checking tickets is faster than buying tickets. The ticket inspector only needs to tear off a small piece of the ticket. There is no need to give change, which is much faster than the ticket counter.
Soon the two of them entered the park.
As soon as we entered, we were greeted by a large ice lantern with the theme of Huaguo Mountain and Sun Wukong.
This ice lantern is three meters high and carved into the shape of a mountain. Sun Wukong is squatting on the top of the mountain, and the sculpture is lifelike.
This was the first time Jiang Qin saw such a big ice lantern in his whole life. He felt it was very fresh and he stood around looking at it for a long time.
Later, Fu Shaoduo said there was a better one inside, so she reluctantly left.
Sure enough, it was just as Fu Shaoduo said. As we walked into the park, there were more and more ice lanterns, and it was dazzling to see all kinds of ice lanterns.
They walked and looked around until they reached the middle of the park and found a large skating rink there.
The skating rink looks like a lake. In winter, the lake freezes and is used as a skating rink.
Many men, women and children were playing inside.
Some were wearing skates, some were sitting on ice sledges, and some were spinning tops on the ice.
Jiang Qin stood on the edge and couldn't walk. She was a little jealous when she saw the people in the skating rink having so much fun.
"Want to go play?"
Fu Shaoduo approached her and asked.
"Well, I want to play."
When he asked, Jiang Qin immediately nodded sharply.
She never left, just wondering whether to go out and play. Seeing the people on the ice having so much fun, she wanted to try it too.
You need to pay an additional ticket for the skating rink, which is not expensive, only 10 cents per person.
After paying 2 cents, Fu Shaoduo pulled Jiang Qin down to the ice.
As soon as he stepped on it, Jiang Qin felt his feet slip and almost fell.
Fortunately, Fu Shaoduo had quick eyes and quick hands and hugged her arm, saving Jiang Qin from falling onto his strong buttocks.
Jiang Qin thought to herself that she thought too highly of herself. She could fall down even if she walked on the ice, but even if she put on skates, she would fall and eat shit.
No, you can't play that.
It’s better to change to one with a lower difficulty level.
In the end, Jiang Qin chose the ice sledge.
The ice sledge is made of wood nailed into a skateboard with handrails. A rope is tied to the front. One person pulls it in front and another person sits on the back and slides.
Fu Shaoduo quickly found one for her. Jiang Qin sat in the back while he pulled the rope in front.
The feeling of gliding on the ice was so good that Jiang Qin was pulled for several laps.
When Fu Shaoduo wanted to continue pulling her to slide, Jiang Qin waved his hand and got off the ice sledge.
Although the weather was 20 degrees below zero, a thin layer of sweat appeared on Fu Shaoduo's forehead.
In fact, Jiang Qin still wanted to play, but when she saw that Fu Shaoduo was sweating and was worried that he would catch a cold due to the cold wind, Jiang Qin's mood to play immediately disappeared.
She took out a handkerchief from her pocket and raised her hand to wipe the sweat from Fu Shaoduo's forehead.
Jiang Qin wiped it carefully. After wiping his forehead, he wiped his cheek carefully again.
When she continued to move downward and was about to touch her neck, Fu Shaoduo suddenly raised his hand and held her hand down, and Jiang Qin suddenly came back to his senses.
"Here, wipe it yourself."
Jiang Qin hurriedly gave Fu Shaoduo his handkerchief, turned his back and stood beside him, his heart beating very fast.
Fu Shaoduo took the handkerchief, wiped his neck silently, and then stuffed the handkerchief into his trouser pocket.
"Two dollars."
He suddenly said without thinking.
Jiang Qin turned her head and glanced at him: "What do you mean?"
Fu Shaoduo also looked at her and said, "You gave me two handkerchiefs to wipe my sweat. I washed them last time and haven't given them back to you yet. Let's give them to you later."
It turned out that she had forgotten about this even if he didn't mention it.
"It's okay, you don't have to pay it back, just take it and use it."
Jiang Qin said indifferently.
"No." Fu Shaoduo said, "The color of the handkerchief suits you better."
Jiang Qin was stunned for a moment before she understood what he meant.
The two handkerchiefs are both pink and have floral flowers on them, so they are women's at first glance.
It's really not appropriate for Fu Shaoduo to use it.
"Okay."
Jiang Qin suppressed a smile and said.
"Let's go quickly. You still have wet sweat on your body. Don't catch a cold."
Jiang Qin couldn't stand firmly on the ice. She reached out to hold Fu Shaoduo's arm, and they walked back together.
Halfway through, Fu Shaoduo suddenly asked her, "Do you want to go to the department store? There are ready-made clothes to buy there. I heard the styles are very new."
Jiang Qin raised his head and asked, "Who did you listen to?"
"Zhou Dongyang. He brought Ji Jing here."
"Oh, let's go and have a look."
Buses at the entrance of People's Park run in all directions, and there are several buses going to the department store.
Jiang Qin and Fu Shaoduo waited for two minutes before boarding a bus to the department store.
