In the next few days, Hutao’s family will be preparing things for the New Year.
The most prepared part was eating, including rice cakes, handmade candies, and popcorn.
Hutao is busy every day.
I also cleaned the house a lot.
The day before New Year's Eve, the whole family went out to buy groceries.
In the village, Hutao was able to gain respect for her parents. She could make money for her family by studying. It was the first time she could drive by herself.
Now his dad has to show off the suit Hutao bought him no matter where he goes.
No, when I went shopping to buy groceries, everyone I met along the way looked at Hu Tao curiously.
Some even come over to praise them.
Hu Tao remembers that these people used to look down on her family.
Now I see that her house has been renovated and she is driving a car, and everyone comes to praise her.
Hu Tao really doesn't like it, but she has no choice but to adapt to such an environment. No matter how much she doesn't like it, she has to adapt.
Especially her neighbor’s aunt.
Because her family is relatively wealthy in the village, she never spoke to Hu Tao when she saw her.
On the way out to buy groceries this morning, I actually took the initiative to talk to her and asked her a lot about where and how she made money.
Hutao just smiled and said nothing.
Finally finished the grocery shopping task at noon.
She was too busy after returning home and didn't have much contact with Ling Yeshen. She only occasionally chatted on WeChat.
It took her most of the time to reply to the message Ling Yechen sent her.
But Ling Yechen was so angry.
As soon as she left him, she was like a kite with its string broken.
Sometimes I send messages in the morning and wait until evening to reply to him.
Hutao didn't expect so much. She was too busy at home. When she was at school, besides studying, she also had to eat. But now it's different. She has to help her mother with all kinds of housework.
You still have to learn to code.
She even wants to divide herself into half and use it.
Especially in rural areas, there are many things to pay attention to, and you have to prepare for everything.
Finally, it was New Year's Eve, and Hu Tao felt that she was ready to prepare and could almost take a rest. Unexpectedly, she was busy with everything since she got up in the morning.
Cleaning, posting couplets, and helping her brother kill chickens and fish.
It was already noon by the time I had some time to relax.
She just sat down and looked at the phone for a while, and it was time for New Year's Eve dinner.
They had an early New Year's Eve dinner here, and started eating around three in the afternoon.
She came back today and everyone is here.
The family had a New Year's Eve dinner quietly.
This is the most peaceful New Year’s Eve dinner that Hutao has ever experienced.
There was no yelling from grandma, and her father was not drunk and crazy.
My brother also returned home.
The happiest person is her mother. Today's New Year's Eve dinner was helped by her two children. She was not too tired and was quiet during the meal.
It was only five o'clock when we had the New Year's Eve dinner.
Dad went out to play after dinner, and people in the village would go to the activity center to dance and have fun after dinner.
Mom packed up and left.
Her brother didn't know where he had gone, he must have gone to play with his little friends.
Hu Tao doesn't like the excitement and hides in her room coding.
When it was past seven o'clock, I received a video from Ling Yechen.
"You finally have time to take my video, you heartless one." Ling Yechen complained.
"Have you had New Year's Eve dinner?" Hutao asked, not angry.
Ling Yeshen: "Not yet, we have to eat later."
Hutao: "Ah, we ate at about three o'clock. My family all went out to play, and I was alone at home."
Ling Yeshen: "Hmm, do you miss me?"
Hu Tao hummed and asked, "What are you doing now?"
Ling Yechen said: "I'm in the room. I'll go to the hotel later to have New Year's Eve dinner."
Hu Tao smiled and said, "It's better for you. You can eat out during the Chinese New Year without having to prepare anything. Unlike here, the whole family is so busy during the Chinese New Year that we have to prepare several days in advance."
Ling Yechen said enviously: "I still envy you. You don't know how boring our Chinese New Year is. It would be great if you were here."
The two chatted for a while before hanging up the video, mainly because Ling Yeshen was urged by his mother to go out to the hotel."
Ling Yechen is really bored here. During the Chinese New Year, his parents and younger brother were watching TV in the living room, while he was doing work in the room.
We didn’t leave for the hotel until evening.
Tonight I will stay with Chen Wenxuan and his family.
Ling Yechen's grandparents and Chen Wenxuan's grandparents were also taken over by Chen Wenxuan's father.
Two families had New Year's Eve dinner at the hotel.
Because of Chen Wenxuan, a talkative person, and Ling Yexing, a young person, the whole atmosphere is pretty good.
Because there were old people around, the dinner ended after ten o'clock.
The two families made an appointment to go to Chen Wenxuan's house again, saying they were going to keep a vigil.
Ling Yechen really didn't want to go, but his grandmother and grandfather were there, so he had no choice but to go.
The adults sat and chatted with the old man, and Chen Wenxuan and Ling Yexing also participated.
Ling Yechen sat alone, not talking, and kept flipping through his phone.
Although we are sitting in the same room, we feel like we are in two different worlds.
It seems that the family is used to him being like this. They say their own things and don't pay attention to him.
Ling Yechen was bored and could only chat with Hu Tao on WeChat.
Hutao was influenced by him, and since it was Chinese New Year, she stopped writing and just lay in bed and chatted with him.
At twelve o'clock in the morning, Hu Tao received a big red envelope from Ling Yechen.
It's said to be a red envelope, but it's actually a transfer.
Hutao counted, twenty-one thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine.
"Why did you send so much? Should I accept it or not? I can't afford to pay back so much." Hutao asked a little confused.
Ling Yeshen asked in confusion: "Why do you have to pay it back?"
Hu Tao said: "What comes and goes, if you give me a red envelope, I have to give you a red envelope, otherwise it will be against the rules."
Ling Yechen said: "It's up to you. If you really want to go back, then you mean it."
Hutao: "Really?"
Ling Yeshen: "Really, just mean it."
Hutao thought about it and actually gave him a red envelope.
She either transferred money or got a red envelope. Ling Yechen thought it should be at least two hundred yuan, so when she opened the red envelope, it was eighty-eight yuan.
Asked: "You want me to get rich?"
Hutao replied: "Of course, I hope you make a fortune every day.
Ling Yechen laughed out loud and replied: "Little money fan."
His smile shocked everyone present, and Chen Wenxuan joked: "Oh, my ten thousand-year-old Bingshan brother can actually laugh, who are you talking to?"
In fact, he had already guessed who he was chatting with, and no one could make him laugh except Hu Tao.
Ling Yechen said calmly: "You are wrong, please continue."
Then I played with my phone like nothing happened.
He also sent a New Year greeting to Hutao: "Happy New Year, I love you."
When Hu Tao saw the words "love you", her heart skipped a beat.
I didn’t know how to reply, so I gave Ling Yechen a heartfelt expression.
Ling Yechen was so happy that the corners of his mouth raised inadvertently.
Ling Yexing looked at his brother's state and thought he was chatting with his sister-in-law. He took out his cell phone and sent Hutao a message: "Sister-in-law, what did you say to my brother? He actually laughed just now."
After a while, Hutao came back: "Can your brother laugh?"
Ling Yexing replied: "It's absolutely true."
Hu Taodao directly denied it: "I don't know, I haven't contacted him."
Ling Yexing was speechless for a while.
After Chen Wenxuan teased his brother, he was busy chatting. He wanted to send New Year blessings to Jessica Jung.
