"Okay, okay, okay, Mumu is really promising, I feel really relieved this time." Li Dongliang was a little excited after hearing what his son said.
Before eating the food, he picked up the wine glass and said, "Son, come on, let us have a drink."
After he finished speaking, he put the wine glass to his mouth, made a soft sound, and drank one-third of the glass of wine.
This was a high degree of alcohol. The old lady Wang Fang kept calling him an old man, and she didn't know the importance of drinking.
Li Mumu and Huang were both frightened. If something happened to their old father, they would regret it.
"Dad, don't worry, I've had a few days off, let's drink slowly." Li Mumu advised him.
Even so, he also took a big sip.
The alcohol content was quite high, and he choked with tears at the corners of his eyes. He quickly took two bites of the food, and then he felt much better.
The old lady, her daughter-in-law, and her grandson drank Huiyuan juice together, and they also clinked their glasses and took a sip.
The old lady looked at the dishes on the table and felt very happy.
Her son is doing well now, and she, the mother, is also happy.
"Dad, Mom, when I change to a bigger house, you don't want to live in your hometown anymore. Then move in with us. It will be convenient to have everything you need." Li Mumu suggested.
He had discussed this matter with his wife in advance.
It would have been impossible in the past, but now there are two bedrooms in this apartment building. The couple lives in one and his son lives in another. There is really no extra room.
But if you want to change to a house with at least three bedrooms, that's fine.
His wife was not an unreasonable person and agreed.
Li Dongliang and Wang Fang shook their heads: "No, no, we two old guys are still living comfortably in the countryside. We all know each other in the neighborhood, and if we have something to say, it will be done. If you move to a new community, we will be even more...
I don’t know anyone, and I’m bored to death.”
This is true.
Li Mumu glanced at his wife and did not mention the matter again for the time being.
After finishing two glasses of wine, Li Mumu started to talk about how difficult and difficult it was for him to work in the first few years. He also talked about how great it was to work last year.
Needless to say, Li Dongliang has always known this.
But when he heard his son talk about his experience working in Jingtong Food Factory, Li Dongliang kept nodding and praising him, and said: "Isn't it because you asked me to watch Qicheng News some time ago? The young man on TV is your boss, right?
He has been praised by city leaders, he is really amazing."
At this time, Li Mumu felt very energetic and energetic.
"Our company's new factory will be put into operation in May or June next year. Our boss also said that if we can earn 100 million this year, he will give us a bonus of no less than 50,000 yuan."
"If he can earn 200 million, he will give out more bonuses." Li Mumu was ambitious. He said: "I usually save some more money, dad and mom, you just have to wait and see. By the end of the year at the latest, I can put this money into my pocket."
As soon as the house is sold, I will change my house."
Huang Shuangshuang really didn't know about this. When she heard her husband say this, she felt so excited that she had finally looked forward to it.
I really wish that Jingtong Development Co., Ltd. could quickly earn 100 million tomorrow.
Li Dongliang also opened his eyes in surprise. He couldn't believe it: "You can pay so much. Your boss is not fooling you into doing your job, right?"
When Li Mumu heard what his old father said, he was not happy. He used the strength of his drink to retort on the spot: "Dad, if you keep talking nonsense, I won't be polite to you anymore!"
"Hey, you drank too much, you are still energetic, right?" As soon as Li Dongliang said a word, the old lady Wang Fang grabbed his arm and reminded him.
He also reacted, picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea to hide his embarrassment, and said: "Okay, let's buy a house next year, right? I will prepare the money for you at any time. Just let me know when you buy a house."
"If you don't use it, the money will be used as money for my grandson's schooling." Old Man Li is quite cute.
…
Starting on the morning of New Year's Eve, Zhou Yinghong started mixing dumpling fillings and preparing to make dumplings.
She cooked beef, mutton, leek and pork in one go.
His son also brought back a box of large fish and said it could be made into dumpling fillings. Zhou Yonghong didn't know how to make it and didn't find it troublesome, so he didn't make it.
Most people in the north celebrate the New Year by preparing a table of dishes and eating a few warm dumplings, which symbolizes reunion.
Xia Zekai and his wife were helping. Yatou and Tongtong asked grandma for a piece of dough, and the two sisters went to play.
From time to time, I would make various different shapes and show them to my parents and grandma. After receiving a lot of praise, they both felt a sense of accomplishment.
"Zekai, when you go out to pay New Year's greetings in the evening, you should go to your Uncle He's place. Your third grandma is dying." Zhou Yinghong specifically mentioned.
Xia Zekai paused while making dumplings and asked his mother: "Is it still diabetes?"
"Well, I'm lying in bed all the time now. It's good to be able to get through this new year."
People are prone to misfortune and good fortune, and there is no such thing as illness.
"Okay, I remember." Xia Zekai responded.
Diabetes is not scary, what is scary is the complications, which basically empty out the human body.
Xia Weicheng went to the cemetery in Xiajiazhuang to the west to invite the elderly. It meant that during the New Year, he would invite the ancestors of the family back to celebrate the New Year together.
I'll send it back after the New Year.
I can’t say whether this custom is good or not, but it gives people a sense of sustenance.
Grandpa Xia Shande was sitting on his official hat chair, bobbing his head while listening to Peking Opera. He even asked specifically: "Is there Zhao Benshan in the Spring Festival Gala tonight?"
"Grandpa, there is him." Xia Zekai nodded and said.
In addition to Zhao Benshan, there are many big-name celebrities, but Xia Zekai has long forgotten who they are, and he doesn't pay much attention to them now.
But grandpa likes to watch Zhao Benshan's sketches and finds them very funny.
For Xia Zekai, making money to support his family is his main theme throughout. To enrich this main line, it is nothing more than to make his relatives on this line live a better life.
When the sound of firecrackers goes off one after another, the smell of the New Year hits your face instantly.
When the girl heard the sound of firecrackers, she was so frightened that she covered her little ears. As a result, she even spread her legs like a frightened rabbit and hid behind her mother.
Tongtong boldly ran out. She screamed and asked her father to set off firecrackers too. She kept yelling at her to light firecrackers too. She was a typical little violent person.
The sky gradually turned black.
The street lights installed on the north-south street of Xiazhuang are finally on. They only stay on for a few days at this time of the year throughout the year. I don’t know what the original intention of installing them was?
Everyday decoration?
While we were still waiting for a leader to come down for inspection, the beanbao dry food people from the village committee pointed to the street lights installed in the village to their superiors and said: "Our village is also equipped with street lights, which can fully ensure the safety of villagers walking around at night.
.”
At least it's nonsense.
The sound of firecrackers sounded for the second time, and various fireworks began to rise and dance. While showing various bewitching figures in the night, Xia Zekai also lit the fireworks bought by his father in his yard.
When Xia Weicheng knew that his granddaughter was coming back, he didn't stop buying these things.
When a cousin from the clan came over to ask him to come with him to pay New Year greetings, Xia Zekai hadn't finished releasing the cake yet, so he asked Luo Xiyun to help release some of the rest.
