    No matter how hard he thought about it, Meng Huo never imagined that it would be such a difficult situation.

    Could this be the marriage urge that every single young man of the right age experiences in the legend every Chinese New Year?!

    Meng Huo smiled awkwardly but politely, and replied, "Not yet."

    Father Lu's question was obviously very instructive, because Meng Huo suddenly noticed that the dinner table, which had been unusually silent just now, suddenly became commotion, and everyone's eyes were shining with strange excitement.

    Meng Huo: So scary O_O

    It doesn't matter if you don't have a partner for the time being, the key is...

    "Xiao Meng, what kind do you like?" The sister-in-law asked after taking over the topic.

    Meng Huo thought for a while, and answered honestly, "I'm still young, so I haven't thought about this question yet."

    The sister-in-law let out an "oh" in disappointment.

    Indeed, according to Lu Xinghuai, Xiao Meng is only 21, but her little uncle will be 28 in the next Chinese New Year, age is not suitable...

    Isn't this the old cow eating young grass?!

    The sister-in-law, who was determined to be a matchmaker, was hit hard by reality again.

    With Lu's father and sister-in-law boldly opening the mic in front, the rest of the brothers and sisters will not be afraid of Lu Xinghuai.

    Problems popped up like endless weeds.

    Meng Huo was a little confused when asked.

    Why on earth did he feel that the Lu family was not warm enough to him? Now it seems that the brief silence just now was just the result of their efforts to restrain themselves for fear of scaring him!

    "Then Xiao Meng wants to find someone inside or outside the circle?"

    Meng Huo put down his chopsticks, thought for a while and answered, "Inside the circle."

    The job of an artist is a bit special, and it is easier for people in the same circle to understand each other.

    Lu Xinghuai's youngest sister is a sociologist. She raised her glasses and asked carefully:

    "Face or intellectual love?"

    Meng Huo was taken aback for a moment, looked at her hesitantly for a while, and then answered cautiously.

    "It can't be either..."

    The elder sister's eyes are shining brightly, if it is not for Lu Xinghuai who is in the middle, she can't wait to rush to have a drink with Meng Huo!

    She searched all over the crowd, but finally found a soulmate at the place where she suddenly looked back. She passed Lu Xinghuai to pull Meng Huo's hand cherishingly: "I really appreciate your attitude towards life with your eyes above your head!"

    The eldest brother sighed with a headache.

    "So I've been single until now..."

    The elder sister shook her head, dismissive of this kind of married people who walked into the grave of marriage and wanted to persuade all the young people of the right age to be buried with them.

    She took a sip of the wine, her eyes were deep, and what she said was very philosophical:

    "If you can't meet the right person, being single is a kind of luck."

    Lucky is lucky, but...

    "To sum up Xiao Meng's mate selection criteria, there must be someone in the circle who is handsome, talented, wealthy, clean and self-loving..."

    After the sister-in-law finished speaking, everyone fell silent in unison.

    Meng Huo smiled awkwardly but politely, it sounded quite difficult.

    "It's okay, I'm not in a hurry anyway."

    Except for Meng Huo, everyone looked at the person sitting next to Meng Huo in unison.

    Lu Xinghuai raised his eyes and glanced at them lightly, everyone suddenly became quiet and looked away in all directions.

    Meng Huo bit the tip of his chopsticks and glanced at Lu Xinghuai, wondering why everyone suddenly stopped talking.

    Without changing his expression, Lu Xinghuai handed him a bowl of chicken soup that had been aired to a perfect temperature.

    "Drink it, it's not hot anymore."

    Meng Huo smiled at him and concentrated on eating with his head down.

    The sister-in-law was lost in thought as she watched this scene.

    Finally understood why Lu Xinghuai and Meng Huo were able to remain single in an ambiguous atmosphere.

    ——The person like is an emotional fool, brother-in-law is so pitiful.

    One of the important activities of the Chinese New Year is visiting relatives. Meng Huo thought that a huge family like the Lu family should be full of people on the first day of the new year, but it turned out to be surprisingly warm.

    Meng Huo was nervous all afternoon, especially afraid of meeting Lu Yu.

    "My father taught us to value family since we were young." Lu Xinghuai handed him the cut apples, "So spend the New Year's Eve with the closest people."

    Distant cousins like Lu Yu are obviously not included.

    After lunch, everyone watched TV in the living room in the afternoon.

    I have watched the Spring Festival Gala, and the replay is not interesting.

    It was later that Meng Huo found out that the girl who looked like a New Year's doll was called Lu Hua, and her nickname was Niannian.

    Niannian suddenly remembered something and shouted: "Brother Simon said he is on TV, I want to watch Brother Simon."

    Niannian is talking about the program "Adults Are Not Home" that Meng Huo just finished recording with Simon.

    What Pineapple TV wants is the effect of the Chinese New Year family carnival, and the first issue will be launched just in time for the first day of the Lunar New Year.

    Everyone hurriedly tuned out the program on TV.

    Meng Huo didn't know what effect the editing of the program would have. He was especially afraid that his performance would not be good enough, so he sat upright and stared at the screen more seriously and nervously than anyone else.

    The Chinese New Year Special Edition of "Adults Are Not Home" will be broadcast continuously for 15 days, one episode a day until the 15th day of the first lunar month.

    Today's broadcast happened to be the first day Meng Huo and Simon first met.

    When it was broadcast that Princess Bei Bei was crying and Zhou Ruochen was helpless, the sister-in-law frowned, feeling that the little girl looked more and more familiar, she asked Lu Xinghuai: "This is not your..."

    Meng Huo sat upright and didn't hear this sentence at all.

    Lu Xinghuai nodded slightly, and nodded.

    When Meng Huo appeared in front of Zhou Ruochen, he adjusted the slow motion in the later stage, and added a filter of holy light to Meng Huo, and drew a pair of wings on the back.

    Matching words: The angel who saved me appeared.

    Lu Xinghuai slowly stroked the rim of the cup.

    Just when everyone was helpless against the crying Bei Bei, Meng Huo went online.

    He efficiently made up a very beautiful princess head, which immediately coaxed the little girl to smile.

    The sister-in-law suddenly realized: "It turns out that this hairstyle became popular because of you!"

    No wonder, when she sent her daughter to kindergarten for a while, she found that every little girl in her class had a bow on her head, and her daughter was so cool that she only had short hair, which saved her from learning to braid all kinds of braids.son's trouble.

    The grown-ups who were physically and mentally exhausted from taking care of the baby all year round cast admiring glances at Meng Huo.

    Meng Huo smiled modestly, and finally sat upright without being so nervous.

    And the eyes that look at Meng Huo every year seem to be looking at "God".

    Niannian ran back to the room and took out dozens of Barbie dolls.

    She climbed onto Meng Huo's lap. Brother Meng Huo can guarantee that every Barbie doll has a different hairstyle!

    She must be the envy of Barbie players all over the world!!!

    Meng Huo was soon occupied by Lu Xinghuai's nieces and nieces. Everyone liked this brother who could accompany them to play with Barbie dolls, play house, and even braid hair.

    The boys dismissed it until—

    The TV began to show Meng Huo and Simon playing games. No matter what game, Meng Huo could counterattack from being beaten.

    Lu Xinghuai's nephew and nephew chattered in Meng Huo's ear.

    "Brother Meng, can you play "Three Kingdoms"?"

    "Brother Meng, can you play "good cop bad cop"?"

    "Brother Meng, can you play...?"

    Not exactly.

    "Let us teach you!"

    Only the world where Simon got hurt was reached.

    Simon blushed slightly, and leaned against the wall awkwardly. The most outgoing boy pulled him, and explained, "Look, whatever game you play with him, Meng Huo will counterattack by the eleventh round. ThenYou can just play the first ten rounds with him! If you win, the opponent you will be matched with will be a growth type! Isn’t it exciting?!”

    The little boy found Meng Huo's bug, and Simon suddenly realized it!

    There is only one problem left, everyone likes Meng Huo, everyone

    Everyone wants to occupy him.

    But Meng Huo only had one.

    In the end, both men and women had to send a representative.

    "The time slot at 3 o'clock is exclusively for our girls."

    "At 4:00:00, you have to return Brother Meng to me!"

    ...

    The adults began to drink tea and chat comfortably, enjoying the adult world that adults should enjoy.

    Very good.

    If it was said that the people were fond of Meng Huo in part because of Lu Xinghuai's face, now, they completely liked Meng Huo himself.

    They are long past playing house games with Barbie dolls, and they don’t understand the current board games and e-sports. When they think that their children are at home on vacation, they both have one head and two big heads. Now they have a reliable child who can take care of the baby.Wang helped them... The mood of the Lu family's parents was the same as that of the little idol on TV.

    Meng Huo is an angel!

    Thank you Meng Huo!

    Amen!

    Compared with getting along with adults, Meng Huo is more relaxed when he is with children who are simple and pure in mind.

    Meng Huo played with the children all afternoon, and the time flew by in a blink of an eye.

    When Lu Xinghuai came to the game room and knocked on the door, calling them to go downstairs for dinner, a dozen or so little faces looked back at him, full of reluctance.

    "Play a little longer!"

    "Just play for a while and then eat!"

    "Uncle, you are the best!"

    ...

    Unmoved, Lu Xinghuai unplugged the network cable under the disbelieving eyes of the children.

    Woohoo, the little uncle/uncle is a devil!

    Lu Xinghuai leaned over, took off the game controller from Meng Huo's hand, and glanced over the small faces with indifferent eyes.

    "Brother Xiao Meng is still sick, are you willing to let him play with you for so long?"

    The good little angels felt guilty.

    "I'm sorry, Brother Meng Meng." Niannian stroked his head and exhaled softly.

    In a child's world, whirring doesn't hurt anymore.

    Meng Huo was so moved that he almost cried.

    "It's okay, brother Xiao Meng is not tired at all." Meng Huo picked up Nian Nian with one hand, and said as he walked downstairs, "This is the happiest year that brother Xiao Meng has lived since he was a child."

    Meng Huo was surprised to find that his dinner was different from everyone else's.

    "On New Year's Day, our family eats dumplings by tradition. Simon's has already been eaten in the morning, and this is specially cooked for you Xiao Meng."

    Lu's mother was pampered and pampered all her life, and she would only cook in person on New Year's Eve and the first day of the new year.

    Meng Huo was flattered and hugged the bowl: "Thank you, Auntie!"

    Meng Huo began to eat under the eyes of everyone.

    first bite.

    "Is it delicious?" Lu Xinghuai looked at him deeply.

    Meng Huo chewed. Mother Lu's dumplings were absolutely unambiguous, and the meat was so filling that she choked...

    Meng Huo asked him in a low voice:

    "Is there any vinegar?"

    Lu Xinghuai paused, and went to the kitchen to pour a small bowl of vinegar.

    Meng Huo could eat a dumpling in one bite.

    Second bite.

    Still nothing.

    The third bite, no.

    ...

    Lu Xinghuai and Mother Lu exchanged glances.

    Lu's mother defended herself in a low voice, "...I put them all in, and there must be nothing missing. Don't worry, wait a little longer."

    When there were only three dumplings left in Meng Huo's bowl.

    The third last bite.

    Meng Huo frowned while chewing, and spat out something hard.

    "What is this?" Meng Huo asked looking at the thing that looked like an oatmeal.

    "Fuzi." Lu Xinghuai answered him warmly.

    The penultimate bite.

    Meng Huo's eyes lit up as he ate.

    He spat out a clean coin.

    "I know this, those who eat it will get rich in the coming year!"

    The last bite of dumplings.

    Meng Huo licked his lips, sweet.

    Mother Lu smiled and said, "It's filled with sugar."

    Bran, coins, and white sugar imply that those who eat it will have good fortune, good luck, and a sweet life.

    All the best blessings in the world are in this bowl.

    Meng Huo's eyes were a little hot, and he lowered his eyes, which was particularly distressing:

    "I ate dumplings...can I still have dinner that night?"

    At first, Meng Huo was still thinking about his "disappeared two-pack abs", and secretly made up his mind to eat less. Unfortunately, the food cooked by Lu's mother was so delicious that Meng Huo quickly put aside the matter of abs.In the back of his head, after eating more than twenty dumplings and dinner, Meng Huo suddenly discovered a sad thing.

    He pulled Lu Xinghuai who was sitting next to him, and showed him his stomach.

    The flat belly is swollen out of the belly.

    Meng Huo's tone was very sad.

    "Can I confess to you when I was hunted down by the agent?"

    Put all the blame on Lu Xinghuai, it was Lu Xinghuai who forced him to eat like this, so Wang Kun can't scold him?!

    Lu Xinghuai stroked the mouth of the cup slowly, with a fairly harmless tone, and lightly cast a bait.

    "Don't be afraid. There is a gymnasium at the end of the corridor on the second floor. There is also a sauna and a bath next to the gymnasium. You can go there if you need it."

    Meng Huo pushed and pulled very politely.

    "What's the point of this?"

    Lu Xinghuai took a sip of hot tea, his dark starry eyes were sometimes hidden by the mist.

    "you are welcome."
