Chapter 285: Good idea
While changing shoes, Lianxing whispered in Shen Ci's ear: "Your brother is quite handsome, but he doesn't look much like you. You look more like your aunt."
Shen Ci smiled without saying a word. She did look more like her mother, and her brother should look more like the Fu family. Although she didn't want to admit it and hadn't seen her father Fu Jun's appearance, her brother and her uncle Fu Kang did have a few similarities.
"Just in time, the dishes are just fried. Hurry in and wash your hands to prepare for dinner."
Shen Jingjing also came out to welcome them warmly. Gu Lianxing and Pili greeted one after another: "Aunt, we two greedy girls are here to bother you again!"
"Welcome, welcome, Aunt likes liveliness."
After entering the house, several people lined up to wash their hands. Lianxing was the most extroverted and sweet-mouthed, pulling Shen Jingjing "Aunt" this and "Aunt" that, making Shen Jingjing laugh non-stop.
Shen Ci came to the dining table and saw the dinner her mother had carefully prepared, and couldn't help but be surprised: "This is too rich, Mom. You have more dishes than we did this year for New Year."
"It's because there are many people," Shen Jingjing responded, then hurriedly greeted everyone to sit down and start eating.
"Come, Pili, Aunt remembers you liked this soy sauce chicken last time. Aunt made it specially for you today. Hurry and taste if it's still the same taste as last time."
Once seated, Shen Jingjing first picked a chicken leg for Pili, and her gaze toward her was exceptionally gentle and pitying.
Pili hurriedly nodded to thank her: "Thank you, Aunt."
Shen Xing slowly leaned his head to his sister's side and whispered: "Pili? Sister, your roommate's name is domineering enough!"
Shen Ci knocked her brother's head with chopsticks: "You behave yourself. This sister is a successor of Chinese martial arts, she can split you unconscious with one palm!"
One sentence scared Shen Xing into sitting up straight, looking at Pili with surprised eyes.
Really or fake?
Shen Ci turned to look at her mother and asked with concern: "Mom, have you adapted well these two days at home? Have you gone out to walk around the neighborhood?"
"I've adapted quite well, it's just that this house is too big, and I feel empty when I'm alone at home." Shen Jingjing said the truth: "I went to the garden to turn the soil this morning. The cold hasn't retreated yet, and the soil is a bit hard. I'm thinking of planting some flowers and plants in the garden myself when spring comes, which can also pass the time."
"Oh, by the way, Mom also found a large market nearby. Everything is sold inside, and it's much cheaper than the supermarket, and the things are complete. These dishes today were all bought there."
"Market?" Shen Ci was stunned for a moment: "How come I don't know there is any market nearby?"
Saying this, she looked at Lianxing, and Lianxing also shook her head to indicate she hadn't heard of it.
Shen Jingjing explained: "It's just walking straight east from the residential area, it takes about twenty minutes to get there."
"Twenty minutes?" Shen Ci was shocked: "That's two kilometers away, right? You bought so many things and carried them back yourself?"
Shen Jingjing nodded: "Yes, two kilometers isn't far!"
Shen Ci shook her head helplessly: "I'll sign you up for a driving school later. You go learn to drive, and then you can drive out when you go out."
"This is a good idea!" Shen Xing also raised his hand in favor: "Anyway, Mom feels bored at home, and the weather will warm up soon, it's a good time to learn to drive."
Shen Jingjing didn't oppose this. Learning to drive is a serious matter. She had thought about learning it before, but she had never found the time.
Mentioning learning to drive, Gu Lianxing just gnawed on ribs on the side with a guilty conscience.
She learned day after day without progress, and later the coach couldn't stand it and advised her to give up.
"Aunt, if you feel bored at home, you can go shopping with my mom." Gu Lianxing's eyes lit up, and she suggested: "My mom has many little sisters around her, they are all about the same age. Their daily routine is to go shopping, beauty treatments, and afternoon tea together, and sometimes they go to play golf to exercise their bodies. You just arrived in Longcheng, this way you can also get to know more friends."
"And our two families live so close, my mom likes Ah Ci very much, she will definitely be willing to become good friends with you. Maybe you can also become good best friends like Ah Ci and me."
Lianxing's suggestion was quite reliable. Her mother had just arrived in Longcheng. If she wanted to get to know new friends and expand her new social circle, Lianxing's mother who lived next door was the best candidate.
Shen Ci nodded upon hearing this: "Yes, Mom, Aunt Gu is very nice, you should be able to talk well, I'll introduce you to each other another day."
Shen Jingjing didn't resist. She liked Lianxing, this child. Being able to get to know her mother was also a good thing. The two families lived close, so they could walk around more in the future.
"Okay, invite your father and mother to be guests at home another day." Shen Jingjing said with a smile.
And at this moment, Pili also suddenly looked at Shen Jingjing: "Aunt, you have another good way to pass the time."
As soon as Pili opened her mouth, Shen Jingjing instantly became interested: "Oh? What way, Aunt wants to hear it."
"Didn't I mention to you before that my master runs a martial arts school?"
Shen Jingjing nodded.
Pili continued: "The disciples recruited by the martial arts school include not only children and young people, but my master also opened an 'Adult Tai Chi Training Class' a long time ago. Many adults learn Tai Chi there. Tai Chi has its own way, it's different from other traditional Chinese martial arts. It can strengthen the human body and cultivate the mind and body, which is very suitable for everyone to learn."
"Mom, this is good. You can sign up to learn Tai Chi with Aunt Gu when the time comes." Shen Ci expressed her support without hesitation.
Shen Jingjing was clearly also very interested in Pili's suggestion and nodded repeatedly: "It's indeed a good idea. When I was in Shengang before, I often saw many elderly people doing Tai Chi together in the park downstairs. They were all seventy or eighty years old, but they were all high-spirited and walked like flying."
Upon hearing this, Pili also smiled and nodded: "It just so happens that my master, senior brother, and Ah Ci are all familiar with each other. You just go when the time comes, I'll just let my master know."
Shen Xing blinked in shock while listening on the side.
Is this sister really a martial arts practitioner?
This was the first time he had seen a living martial arts practitioner since he was born!
After the meal, Pili took the initiative to enter the kitchen and grabbed the job of washing dishes. Lianxing ate an extra bowl of rice and was so full that she lay on the sofa and couldn't even sit straight.
Shen Xing took the opportunity to pull his sister over and took the initiative to confess about the damage to his bicycle.
"Called the police?"
After hearing this, Shen Ci didn't blame her brother. The bicycle was maliciously and violently damaged, her brother must be the one who felt the most heartache.
Shen Xing nodded: "But the police said they might not be able to find anyone."
Shen Ci gently touched her brother's head and said gently: "It's okay, nothing is more important than your studies now. If there is news from the police, you tell me, Sister will handle it." ===== CHAPTER 286 =====
