Yang Shihan shouted at the door of the living room of the main house.
She is quite cool. She is going on a business trip to interview people tomorrow, and now she is sitting in the living room eating cantaloupe in a swaggering manner.
Dai Yuni and her mother-in-law Hong Xiaoxia, who came to the capital for the New Year, were worried about her and had been working in the kitchen to see what Yang Shihan would take to Jincheng tomorrow.
It’s definitely not easy to go empty-handed during the Chinese New Year.
On one side are teachers Pan Qian and Zhang Shanshan who need to bring some gifts. On the other side are the teachers at the press station. Yang Shihan must also bring some for them.
"It's delicious, and it's not shabby when you take it out. It must be these prawns and horsetail fish, but it's hard to take these with you on a plane."
Hong Xiaoxia was a little troubled. She packed and sent these by express. If she took them to Jincheng again, she would have to find the foam boxes and ice bags that were originally lost.
During the Chinese New Year, the express delivery stations are closed for the holiday. Where can I find insulated foam boxes?
Hey, we shouldn't listen to the nonsense of these young people.
What a separation!
Throw these things away as rubbish, and you will be caught blind when needed.
"Why don't you bring some dry goods? These dried abalones and dried scallops are also good, I think."
Dai Yuni pointed to the cabinet above and said to her mother-in-law.
Originally, she could go to watch the Spring Festival Gala live, but considering that she is now approaching the last month of her third trimester of pregnancy, it is better not to go to crowded places to reduce unnecessary risks.
Therefore, Dai Yuni stayed in the courtyard with Yang Shihan and Hong Xiaoxia.
During the Chinese New Year this year, Dai Zhenhong did not come to Beijing.
Because the real estate market has picked up slightly, Runyuan Real Estate has taken many more actions than last year, and leaders came to inspect this year. Dai Zhenhong is naturally too busy to attend to the New Year.
Yang Huaping didn't come to the capital either. Of course, he just wanted to go back to the village to worship his ancestors on New Year's Eve and didn't come.
After New Year's Eve, Yang Huaping would fly over to meet his wife, son, and daughter-in-law.
The situation is different this year. Yang Huaping and Hong Xiaoxia are preparing to become grandparents!
Of course they have to come to the capital to celebrate the New Year with Yang Qian and Dai Yuni. How can they be willing to let Dai Yuni work hard again?
"There aren't that many abalones. Where can I send them to you? I still want to keep them for you to eat slowly."
Hong Xiaoxia was reluctant to part with it. The dried abalone she bought was very valuable.
Even though Yang Qian earns more now and gives them a lot of pocket money, the old man is still reluctant to spend money randomly.
I bought these dried abalones and dried sea cucumbers for my daughter-in-law to replenish her health. I was willing to buy the best.
Usually they still live an ordinary life, no different from before.
"Mom, let's buy some later. Besides, I just ate the fried abalone with red beans you made today, so I don't need to eat it every day. Just give me these. It's New Year's Eve and we don't have anywhere to find a gift for Hanhan."
Dai Yuni smiled.
"Didn't we agree that we could just grab some? Are you still struggling here? The Spring Festival Gala has already begun!"
Yang Shihan rushed over in such a hurry that she even forgot to put on her coat. The cold wind in the yard made her shiver with cold, and she couldn't help but hug her arms tightly.
"It doesn't matter. Your brother's show is after the midnight bell. There's plenty of time. Don't worry."
Dai Yuni smiled, taking off the blanket from her shoulders and wrapping it around her sister-in-law.
In fact, she was not cold, and she wore thick clothes, but Hong Xiaoxia was worried.
"Then take these! Hey, take these fish maws too. I'll ask your dad to buy some more from home and bring them up."
Even though Hong Xiaoxia was reluctant to give up, she finally chose to listen to her daughter-in-law's advice.
...
"Hahaha, this sketch made me laugh to death. Teacher Shen is indeed the comedian!"
"Did they just make a joke about eighty or forty? I seem to remember seeing it before."
"Yes, the big hammer is eighty, the small hammer is forty. I forgot it was a sketch a few years ago. This sketch is also a continuation of that sketch series."
Without Comrade Lao Dai, the atmosphere in the warm living room was very relaxed. Yang Shihan and Dai Yuni were eating melon seeds with relish and watching sketches. Unknowingly, it was past eleven o'clock.
"Hanhan, you are still here laughing and joking. You have to go on a business trip tomorrow and have to catch a flight early in the morning. If you don't go to bed now, will you be able to wake up tomorrow?"
Hong Xiaoxia had a strong sense of responsibility and called Yang Shihan to go to bed from time to time, fearing that she would delay tomorrow's work.
"Mom, I told you that I want to watch my brother's performance and then go to bed after watching it!"
Yang Shihan actually wants to watch language-based programs, whether she wants to watch my brother’s singing or not.
But looking at the program list, it was now counting down to midnight, and there was still one sketch she had not watched. Of course she was reluctant to go to bed early.
Anyway...
Wait a little longer, wait for me to finish singing, there will be no sketch program later.
"I'm still waiting for your brother's show. Look at what time your flight is. It's seven o'clock! You have to go there early to wait for the flight. It takes another hour to get to the airport. So why don't you get up at four or five o'clock? Wait for your brother's show to finish. Do you still have time to sleep?"
Hong Xiaoxia felt anxious for her.
"Mom, don't worry. We have a car at home. When Yang Qian comes back, I will ask the driver to drive Hanhan to the airport in the nanny car. She can sleep on the way. And she can sleep for two and a half hours on the plane! She You should be very comfortable sleeping in this business class cabin.”
Dai Yuni helped comfort her mother-in-law.
Dai Yuni is also a young person herself, and of course she knows that Yang Shihan is playful. How can she feel sleepy so early on New Year's Eve?
"I'm afraid she won't be able to get up."
Hong Xiaoxia was nagging.
Amidst my mother's nagging, time was approaching zero little by little.
However, after another sketch that made Yang Shihan laugh out loud, under the urging of her mother, Yang Shihan suddenly pointed to the TV excitedly and said to her mother:
"Hey, Mom, this show seems to be my brother's too. Although he doesn't sing, he wrote the songs!"
She really wasn't trying to divert her mother's attention on purpose, because just now she glanced at her phone and the program list, and found that the next song after the skit was a song title that her brother had mentioned!
"The song he wrote? Why are there so many people here? Is this a countdown?"
Hong Xiaoxia turned to watch TV and found that at some point on the stage, many dancers in various costumes had appeared on the stage to serve as backdrops.
At the same time, in front of them, a dozen singers in different clothes came forward, including a not too old bel canto male singer wearing a suit and tie, and a middle-aged soprano singer wearing a heavy dress. , there were folk singers in national costumes, and some gray-haired elderly singers.
"Isn't this Gong Qiaozhen? She can even sing on stage!"
Hong Xiaoxia recognized him at a glance.
Not only Gong Qiaozhen, but also Qin Guohua, an older generation soprano singer who has collaborated with Yang Qian before!
These old singers are not only getting stronger as time goes by, but they also join forces to sing Yang Qian's songs.
"Isn't this lineup too powerful?"
Although Yang Shihan couldn't recognize the person, she had a playlist, and after looking at the name, she couldn't help but click her tongue.
"The main reason is that this is a song dedicated to the 75th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China. The director worked hard to get this great work from your brother. And many singers love to sing it, but there is no way. Old singers like Teacher Gong Qiaozhen and Teacher Qin Guohua, the director can't help it.
I couldn’t hold it down, so I had to go up to a dozen people at once.”
Dai Yuni knew the story behind this, she said with a smile.
