When passing by the square in front of a shopping mall, Xia Siyu saw a huge
Christmas tree here. In fact, every large shopping mall has Christmas trees,
but this shopping mall is surrounded by the old embassy area, all of which are
western-style buildings with warm lights. From a distance, it looks like it is
in Europe.
In recent years, businesses have organized many Western-style festivals in
order to promote sales and young people to join in the fun. For example,
Christmas, if in the West, is similar to the "Spring Festival" existence. It
is true that some believers will celebrate Midnight Mass in the early morning,
but no one will come out to give out candies—it is another holiday, Halloween.
More often, it is a family reunion, which is similar to "New Year's Eve" and
"New Year's Day". After returning home after mass, the family reunited. Some
western countries combine Christmas and New Year's Day into one big holiday,
especially like the Spring Festival holiday.
She used to live in Italy, and her mother was not a believer, so going to
church does not happen. However, as one of the most important festivals in the
Christian world, she will also set up a Christmas tree in the small yard
outside her home. Red socks will also be hung on the Christmas tree, giving
different Christmas gifts based on her recent performance. Every family will
hang up such warm yellow lights for decoration, and they will also reunite for
a big meal.
Moreover, when she was a child, she was most impressed with Christmas or New
Year's Day because her father would usually come over to spend the holidays
with their mother and daughter. For traditional festivals like the Spring
Festival, Xia Youbiao, as the heir of the Xia family, has to spend it at home.
It is impossible to move away for sacrifices and visiting relatives and
friends. But Christmas is different. Christmas is approaching the Spring
Festival, and it happens that the West is also expanding holidays. Although it
is busy at the end of the year, I can always spare a day or two to have a
"reunion dinner" with them. So when he was young, Xia Siyu always looked
forward to Christmas.
But when she grows up, she gradually finds that Santa Claus will not get in
through the chimney and stuff your socks with gifts. It also gradually came to
understand that Dad was only a compromise to spend Christmas with them at this
time. He didn't have the courage from beginning to end to bring his mother,
whom he was marrying, to the Xia family. Maybe I fought before, but failed.
Fortunately, I didn't make any efforts.
Bo Yan watched her glance at the big Christmas tree, thinking she was envious:
"Should we go back and arrange one as well?"
He is really sloppy in coming today. Although the country does not recommend
"foreign festivals" in recent years, for couples, what they want is not the
festival, or the "sense of ritual" during the festival, which is to enjoy the
feeling of two people being together.
Not only is there no Christmas tree, but also no gifts. He bought this red
socks casually on the side of the road. Although Xia Siyu was self-willed and
fussy, she also ate the fruits of dozens of dollars with relish, and did not
ask for any feasts or gifts—the collar around her neck didn’t count.
Bo Yan watched her holding the red sock, and did not continue to eat the fruit
in it, so he snatched the sock: "Even though it is fruit, don't eat too much
at night. If you don’t eat at night, this will make it easy to stomach acid. .
And the fructose content is also high."
He snatched the socks, but Xia Siyu did not resist at all and let him take it
away.
