Tang Min and Meiling mixed the cold dishes and prepared to serve them. She wondered, "Why aren't Lao Gao and Jing Yue here yet? I've already cooked."
"I'll ask Lao Gu to make a call."
Just as he said that, the doorbell rang.
Gu Jingchuan went to open the door, and Gao Zheng and Tang Jingyue stood at the door.
After not seeing each other for many days, Gu Jingchuan looked at Gao Zheng with a friendly expression, "Please come in quickly."
The two came and saw Lin Yongqiang sitting on the sofa.
Lin Yongqiang stood up quickly and asked with a smile,
"Brother Zheng, I heard that you two have a rare trip this year?"
Gao Zheng nodded, "Yes, I went on a trip."
"Since you are here, let's start dinner."
Tang Min said, "The children are going out to have dinner together, let's get together too, we will start work tomorrow."
"I'll serve the food." Tang Jingyue ran into the kitchen to help.
After the table was served, Gao Zheng and Gu Jingchuan drank.
During the Chinese New Year, this is the first and last drink. I have to go to work tomorrow, so I have to have one today no matter what.
Tang Jingyue sat with Tang Min and the others, chatting about their travel experiences and work-related issues.
Tang Jingyue touched her face and said, "I have acne all over my face. If I have time, I can ask Meiling to do a facial."
Mei Ling smiled and said, "No problem, I will do it for you myself when I have time."
Tang Min glanced at Tang Jingyue, who was well-kept and with almost no lines on her face, and said in a faint tone, "Why are you so beautiful? Look at how old your family has been through the vicissitudes of life. Don't just dress yourself up, otherwise you will go out.
Treated like father and daughter."
This Gao Zheng must have worked too hard in the past few years and has aged visibly to the naked eye, with gray hair appearing on his temples.
"Don't tell me yet." Tang Jingyue took a peek at Gao Zheng who was talking to Gu Jingchuan and the others, and whispered while suppressing a smile, "When we were at the tourist attraction, I wore a mask and took pictures of Lao Gao, and Lao Gao was standing straight.
Standing there, he looked like a veteran cadre. My clothes were more fashionable. There was an aunt next to me who said to her daughter, "Look at how filial my daughter is and how patient she is in taking photos of her father."
"Then the daughter said that she didn't look like a father and daughter, but like an old husband and a young wife. The aunt took one look at me, grabbed her daughter and ran away, and also warned her not to talk nonsense."
Hearing Tang Jingyue's words, Tang Min and Meiling laughed out loud.
"Shh."
Tang Jingyue said in a low voice, "You must not let Lao Gao guide you on this matter, as it will hurt his self-esteem."
Gao Zheng was clinking glasses with Gu Jingchuan and the others. He didn't know whether he heard what the women said, but when he saw them laughing, he glanced over here with a hint of resentment in his eyes.
Tang Min was afraid that Gao Zheng would be angry, so she quickly changed the subject. After hearing from Meiling that Lin Jinshun had taken a smartphone, she asked Lin Yongqiang to add Lin Jinshun's account to her.
Lin Yongqiang sent a voice message to Lin Jinshun.
After Lin Jinshun passed, he immediately made a video call.
Tang Min and Tang Jingyue were sitting on the sofa. As soon as the call was connected, they only saw the ceiling shaking.
"Xiao Min, have a great New Year." Lin Jinshun waved his cell phone around in a novel way, his voice loud and clear.
Tang Min said, "Dad, why can't I see you? You set the camera on your phone to the front. I only see the roof of our house."
Lin Jinshun fiddled with it for a long time, but he still wasn't very good at using the functions of this smartphone. He said to the girl doing homework next to him, "Xiaoyu, come and help me see how to use this camera?"
Xiaoyu ran over, took her mobile phone and switched to the front camera. Then, Tang Min here was caught off guard and saw a thin and delicate face.
Tang Min was stunned, and Xiaoyu was stunned.
She did not move her phone away, but looked straight at Tang Min, and then asked timidly, "Aunt, are you looking for my grandpa?"
Tang Min didn't expect that the little girl took the initiative to talk to her and called her aunt.
She nodded, "Yes, I'm looking for your grandpa."
Xiaoyu gave the phone to Lin Jinshun, "Grandpa, please answer it."
Lin Jinshun took the phone and said with a smile, "Xiao Min, how was your Chinese New Year? I heard that you and Jingchuan went on a trip?"
"Yes, I went out for a walk."
"Well, you guys are too busy at work, so take advantage of the Chinese New Year to go out for a walk."
Tang Min looked at him and asked with concern, "Dad, how is your health? Will you still go to work in that orchard after the new year?"
Lin Jinshun replied to her, "I want to go. The orchard boss has called me today. I will go to the orchard in the spring. They are going to start fertilizing the fruit trees. I have to go and watch. I am quite anxious to go to work. Go
The orchard becomes lively, and after spring there will be many workers working in the orchard every day."
Tang Min originally wanted to persuade Lin Jinshun not to do it, but after hearing his last words, he couldn't persuade him anymore.
Lin Jinshun went to work in the orchard. At least he could see people every day, which was much better than being bored at home alone.
While Lin Jinshun was talking to Tang Min, Xiaoyu sat quietly next to him, looking at the people in the video.
Tang Min was a little embarrassed by her look, so he had to say hello to her, "When will Xiaoyu start school?"
When Xiaoyu heard that Tang Min took the initiative to talk to her, she immediately replied very solemnly, "Aunt, I passed the registration on the 15th day of the first lunar month."
Tang Min nodded, "Okay, study hard now that school has started."
Xiaoyu said very seriously, "Auntie, I will study hard, and I will take the college entrance examination in the future."
Tang Min smiled and said, "Okay, you are ambitious."
Tang Min didn't know how to talk to this strange so-called niece, so she gave Lin Jinshun a few words of advice and then hung up the phone.
