Chapter 43: Cinnabar Fulfills Its Promise

July 12, 1996, Friday, the sixth day of Slight Heat.

In the capital, after a year, Ma Xiaolong came here again with Zhusha, Chen Jun and Ma Xiaofeng.

"Ouch! Xiaolong, you are finally here."

Dashi made an alley, and as soon as Ma Xiaolong and the others arrived at the alley, they were blocked by a dozen aunts who were chatting at the entrance of the alley. Their eyes were shining brightly, as if they were looking at their grandson-in-law.

"I haven't seen him in a year, and he's grown taller again. He's now 1.8 meters tall, right?" an aunt asked.

"One meter eighty-one." Ma Xiaolong smiled happily.

Thinking about it, he was only 1.73 meters tall in his last life. In this life, he has finally grown to the height he should be.

"You're already 1.81 meters tall! Your child is only fourteen, right?" the aunt asked.

"Yeah." Ma Xiaolong nodded.

The aunts were astonished: "It's incredible, it's incredible, you won't be allowed to play basketball from now on."

Not only do I play basketball, I also sing and dance rap!

"Auntie, we just came back and we still have to clean up the house. You guys..."

Ma Xiaolong's original intention was to ask them to stop blocking the road, but unexpectedly the aunts were very understanding and enthusiastic: "No problem, we will help you clean up the house."

"Well……"

The aunts are all quick and easy to clean up the housework. With a dozen aunts working together, in just two hours, the entire courtyard was cleaned up, and even the weeds in the yard were pulled out.

Everyone is tired and suffers from back pain, but their energy and energy are as good as the others.

"Old sister, you are not in good health, so you should work less. I'll do it!"

"I don't need to worry about my sister, but my health is not very good, but this job is not difficult for me, but it is you. Don't you have frozen shoulder? Can you use your strength?"

"What's the matter with frozen shoulder? I stretched myself out while practicing the horizontal bar in the park a few days ago. I just need to rest for a few days."

"Hehehe, then just have a good rest! Stop doing it."

"That won't work. I'll have to ask my granddaughter to come over and play later!"

"Come on! Your granddaughter looks like an eggplant, and she scares Xiaolong again."

"Hello, your granddaughter! She looks like a winter melon..."

"You all, stop arguing. My granddaughter will come over to play in a while. She might laugh at you when she sees you like this!"

"You actually told your granddaughter secretly? Why are you like this!"

"Hey, such a good kid, how could I let you take advantage of me? Whoever strikes first belongs to me."

"Alas! Didn't you all see that girl Zhusha is here too? Are your granddaughters as good as your granddaughters?"

"Is yours comparable?"

"Haha, my family's is really comparable." The aunt said with a proud look on her face: "You have also seen my family's Elizabeth. Can you tell me, is it comparable?"

"..." None of the aunts spoke.

This aunt's surname is Yi, Yi Yin, originally from Henan. She was a Henan opera singer when she was young, and later married to the capital.

Aunt Yi had a hard life. When she was pregnant, her husband got involved in a fight and was beaten to death. From then on, Aunt Yi lived alone and struggled to survive. Later, she gave birth to a son, and her life became even more difficult.

Fortunately, my son has been up to par. He has studied hard since he was a child and loves to study. When he was young, in order to practice foreign languages, he went to places where foreigners gathered and took the initiative to practice speaking with them.

His hard work and motivation impressed a foreign lady, so she invited him to live abroad and said she would give him a warm home.

The strong belief in changing destiny made Aunt Yi's son agree, and soon followed the lady to live in Northern Europe.

Five years later, the lady died of illness. Aunt Yi's son married the lady's daughter and received a large inheritance.

Among the inheritance is a winery located in France. The winery’s annual net income exceeds 10 million francs. It can be said to be a hen that lays golden eggs. However, after enjoying the winery dividends for five years, Aunt Yi’s son

, decisively sold the winery for 200 million francs, and then returned to China with the money, bought a large piece of land near Helan Mountain, built a very large winery, and created a local Chinese red wine brand - Yiren

.

After ten years of development, Yiren Winery has become the number one local winery in China. The Yiren brand red wine produced is sold at home and abroad. It has gained considerable fame internationally and has been rated as the world's top red wine by many organizations.

.

Nowadays, Aunt Yi's son has become one of the top winery tycoons in the country. Not only did he marry a Nordic wife, but he also gave birth to a mixed-blood daughter, the Elizabeth whom Aunt Yi mentioned.

Isabel is thirteen years old this year. She has long silver-white hair that is rare in the world. It combines the excellent genes of her parents, giving her facial features both Nordic characteristics and Chinese delicacy. Her pupils are darker in color.

, slightly silvery gray.

The body development is typical of Nordic people, quite precocious, not inferior to Cinnabar, and the height exceeds 165cm, and is likely to exceed 1.7 meters in the future.

Although Isabel was born in Northern Europe, she has lived in Beijing as long as she can remember and has a strong Chinese identity. However, her kindergarten and elementary schools were all international schools. It was not until she graduated from elementary school last month that Aunt Yi’s son decided to

Let Elizabeth go to a local junior high school in Beijing, the famous No. 4 Middle School.

No. 4 Middle School is not far from Dashizuo Hutong, across from Beihai Park, and only takes ten minutes by bicycle.

Because the school is very close to Aunt Yi's place, Isabel came here right after the summer vacation to get familiar with the surrounding environment and the way to school.

The arrival of Isabel shocked the whole alley. Although she lived at the foot of the emperor and had met many foreigners, it was the first time for the aunts in the alley to see such a delicate and beautiful mixed-blood girl like Isabel.

In their minds, the last girl who amazed them was Cinnabar.

This Isabel is no less than Cinnabar, and her background as a mixed blood even adds a touch of exotic style. No wonder Aunt Yi is particularly confident.

"No, your Elizabeth is so good. If you can't find a good boy, why would you want to snatch Xiaolong from us?" An aunt was unhappy.

"That said, I don't mean to rob you." Aunt Yi said with a smile: "I just want my little Shabai and Xiaolong to make friends. They are both young people, so they can definitely play together."

"Bah!" The other aunt said dismissively: "We still don't know what you are thinking? Tell you, grandma!"

Aunt Yi didn't care: "It's up to you. Anyway, Xiaosha will be back before nightfall."

"..."

The aunts are all anxious. If Elizabeth comes back, how can their granddaughter stand a chance?

In fact, there was no chance at the beginning, but they felt that Ma Xiaolong and Zhu Sha were still young and what would happen when they grew up! They were looking for a chance to get in touch now. If Ma Xiaolong and Zhu Sha became yellow one day, wouldn't their children have a chance?

!

Aunts also work very hard for their children.

"Thank you, aunt. I'll buy some food later and come to my courtyard for dinner tonight."

After cleaning the house, Ma Xiaolong should also show something.

Using the skills of a state banquet chef to entertain the ladies for their hard work is full of sincerity.

"Haha, it's nothing, it's nothing." The aunts were very happy: the child was still as polite as before.

We made an appointment to come over for dinner in the evening, and the aunties left.

I've been tired for a long time, so I need to take a good rest.

After seeing the aunties away, Ma Xiaofeng sat down on the spring chair and stretched out: "I'm so exhausted."

"When you're tired, go back to the house and rest." Ma Xiaolong looked at his watch and said, "It's almost four o'clock now. I'll go shopping with you at five o'clock and come back with some drinks."

"Okay!" Ma Xiaofeng got up and ran to her room: "I'll take a nap for a while and call me when the time comes."

Ma Xiaolong turned to Chen Jun and said, "Xiaojun, you should go back to the house and take a rest!"

Chen Jun nodded: "Brother, call me when he goes to buy groceries."

"Okay." Ma Xiaolong touched her head and said with a smile, "Go and have a rest!"

"Um."

Ma Xiaofeng and Chen Jun both went back to the house. Ma Xiaolong looked at Cinnabar sitting on the bed of withered flowers, swallowed secretly, closed the door, and locked it.

"..." Zhusha's face turned a little red and she whispered, "Why are you locking the door?"

"What do you think?" Ma Xiaolong walked to her and sat down, took her hand over and played with it for a moment, then said, "Do you still remember what you said here last year?"

"..." Zhusha's face turned even redder: "It's not dark yet!"

"That's good, you can see clearly." Ma Xiaolong couldn't wait.

"..."

"I just touch it and don't do anything else."

"..." Zhu Sha pursed her lips tightly, and finally put her hand on the hem of the T-shirt, slowly lifting it up.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Ma Xiaolong asked Ma Xiaofeng and Chen Jun to go out to buy groceries, while Zhusha stayed behind to look after the house.

After a year, I don’t have anything to eat at home. I bought a lot of things this time. I definitely have meat, eggs and milk. I also bought seven or eight kinds of vegetables, as well as various seasonings, barbecue grills, iron skewers and

charcoal.

Have a barbecue in the courtyard in the evening.

There were too many things to buy, so Ma Xiaolong hired a three-wheeler to deliver the things to his home. The distance was very close and it only cost five yuan.

Several alley ladies had already come out of their homes. Seeing that Xiaolong had bought so many things, they quickly came over to help unload the goods.

An aunt saw these things and asked: "Xiaolong, are you eating skewers tonight?"

"Yes." Ma Xiaolong said with a smile: "Both meat skewers and vegetable skewers are available. I guarantee you won't get angry after eating them."

"You're afraid of getting angry or something, as long as it's delicious." Aunts don't pay much attention to their food, and they're not from aristocratic backgrounds, so that's pretty much it.

"Come on! Old sisters," an aunt said, "Let's put away the vegetables together?"

"Come on, no one should be lazy!"

For the sake of their children, the aunts began to be attentive again.

Soon, Zhu Sha came out of the house and greeted the aunts with a smile.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but aunts always feel that Cinnabar is a little different, as if... mature?

The aunts' hearts trembled.

They are all experienced and know why women suddenly become mature.

Could it be...

But when I saw Zhu Sha moving freely and not looking injured at all, I felt that I was overthinking it.

He must have just woken up, his mind is not clear, he is still a child!

The aunts breathed a sigh of relief and joked with Zhu Sha with a smile: "You are already in junior high school. Are there any kids chasing you in school?"

Zhusha held Ma Xiaolong's arm and said with a smile: "I already have a husband, who dares to chase me!"
