The date between Tang Xiaobao and Cao Ying ended soon.
It smells a little sloppy.
Tang Xiaobao always felt that Cao Ying asked him to meet today because he didn't really want tickets for the Spring Festival Gala, or because he wanted to meet him.
The relationship between them was actually very close to that of a couple a long time ago.
They both had a little interest in each other, but something happened to the Cao family later, and there was always a slight gap between the two. It seemed impossible to get back together again, and there was even a sense of alienation.
They were all helpless about this.
Fortunately, the relationship has never been confirmed.
Or in Tang Xiaobao's view, it wasn't just as simple as meeting him, but Cao Ying didn't say anything, so Tang Xiaobao couldn't ask more questions.
Cao Ying returned to her former place.
She bought an apartment in Yanjing and the decoration was simple, even rough.
Sitting on the sofa, she was silent while drinking coffee.
Suddenly, her cell phone rang.
I checked and saw it was my father calling.
In the past, the Cao family's manor would be very lively every Spring Festival.
But this year is an exception.
Cao Ying didn't go home, and Cao Jianjun couldn't go home because the troops had to conduct exercises.
Even her second uncle didn't come home.
Everyone is busy with work.
The call was from Cao Jianguo.
As the eldest son of the Cao family, Cao Jianguo will definitely go up the mountain during the New Year.
"Xiaoying, why don't you go home?"
Cao Ying frowned.
In fact, she didn't even need to answer this question.
"There is a very tense project here. I can't leave. Say hello to grandpa for me."
"You should make the call. The old man is not in good health recently. Have you told him?"
Cao Ying was silent for a moment: "No."
Cao Jianguo: "Why don't you tell me? He is the old man's health consultant. He agreed to do it for three years. Isn't this what he should do?"
Cao Ying: "I really don't have the face to say this. We promised him some things before, no - well, I'm a little tired. I think you should go find him in person. I'm going to rest."
"
Snap.
Cao Ying hung up the phone.
She was really tired.
Standing in front of the window, looking at the edge of the city, people were setting off fireworks, and lanterns were hung in the streets and alleys. It was a joyous Spring Festival scene. She suddenly felt so lonely.
…
New Year's Eve.
In most places in China, New Year’s Eve dinner is a must-have for all groups.
But there are still some places that move the New Year’s Eve dinner to noon.
For example, Tongjiang River in Bazhong.
Because of Tang Xiaobao's presence, Seoul Village is now experiencing great development.
This was originally an old red area, a base area. There used to be battlefield hospitals and other ruins here, and many wars took place here. History has left many memorable memories here.
The government has built Yong'an Town into a red town, and Hancheng Village is the most dazzling scenery of the red town.
The cement road leads to every household, and here is the medicinal material base of Shenlong Group. Street lights were installed on both sides of the road years ago, and red lanterns were hung on each lamp post, and colorful flags were tied.
The atmosphere of the Spring Festival here is also particularly strong.
A few days ago, leaders from the county government and the town came to express their condolences.
All because of the outstanding people here.
Why are there so many outstanding people?
Because Tang Xiaobao is a famous figure in the country nowadays.
Tang Qingshan's family received many New Year's gifts years ago.
These congratulatory gifts came from some officials and businessmen.
Tang Qingshan couldn't stop him, he put down his things and left without saying anything.
Some people even asked courier companies to deliver them.
That's good, Tang Qingshan's family almost didn't have to buy any new year's goods during the Chinese New Year.
According to local customs, the Spring Festival is the most important festival of the year.
All the migrant workers in the village have gone home early. A few days before New Year's Eve, every household will kill pigs and chickens to prepare for the New Year's Eve dinner at noon today.
The New Year’s Eve dinner at noon is a bit strange, but it’s called New Year’s Eve dinner here.
Whoever finishes lunch first will celebrate the New Year first.
This needs to be snatched.
Tang Qingshan went to someone else's house and bought a pig, two sheep, twenty chickens, ten fish, and four cow legs...
All in all, the New Year’s goods were abundant.
The family is no longer short of money. Thinking about the shabby Chinese New Year celebrations in the past, Tang Qingshan and his wife often sigh with emotion.
Early in the morning, the whole family started preparing lunch.
Tang Qingshan was killing fish at the door in the yard, Wu Chunmei was busy in the kitchen, and Tang Xiaocao was pasting couplets.
"Xiaocao, didn't your brother say that guests are coming? Why haven't they arrived yet?"
Tang Qingshan asked.
Tang Xiaocao said in a low voice: "What kind of guests could there be? They must be the women he flirted with."
"Don't say that about your brother, don't let others hear the joke."
Tang Qingshan said quickly.
"This is the truth."
Tang Xiaocao said, "Just wait and see." "Didn't Yaoyao say she wanted to come with Mr. Shen? Why haven't she arrived yet?"
Tang Qingshan naturally knew who the guests Tang Xiaobao would bring, and he had already acquiesced and figured it out.
My son is so promising, and all those women are sticking to him, so what can be done about him?
Thinking about it from another angle, this matter is quite satisfying. He is also a man. When he was young, he also thought about three wives and four concubines. However, he would never say such thoughts, otherwise Wu Chunmei would give him another chance.
Let’s talk about history.
Ahem, thinking that he was in jail before and his wife suffered so much at home, he had nothing to say. He would be content if he could find a wife like Wu Chunmei in this life.
And he also gave birth to such a pair of children.
What a proud thing.
The father and daughter were talking when an off-road vehicle drove over in the distance.
The car stopped at the door.
Tang Qingshan quickly stood up and looked.
Then he saw Yaoyao jumping out of the car and running over screaming.
"Tang Xiaocao, I'm back."
Tang Xiaocao jumped down from the stool, put one hand on his hips, pointed at Yaoyao with the other and taught him a lesson: "Little brat, big or small, be careful, I'll beat you up."
"Come on, my master is like Auntie Wan, do you want to fight?"
Yaoyao has grown taller again, and she is not timid at all.
It was like getting off the bus with Shen Mengyao.
"uncle."
Shen Mengyao stepped forward to say hello.
It's like starting from the car and moving boxes down.
Tang Xiaocao immediately ran over to help and said enthusiastically: "Sister Wanru, come here, let me help you."
She had a particularly good impression of Wanru.
Wan Ru is not only good at martial arts, but also never talkative. He has a cold temperament and feels cool.
Tang Qingshan and Shen Mengyao also helped and carried several boxes in.
In the living room, Wu Chunmei also came out.
Everyone greeted with a smile.
Shen Mengyao and Wanru opened the box and started to take out the gifts.
During the Chinese New Year, I definitely have to bring gifts to the whole family.
And the gift is quite precious.
In addition to nutritional and health products, there are also expensive jewelry.
Tang Qingshan and his wife said it was too troublesome, but in fact they were very happy in their hearts.
Tang Xiaocao was also very happy after receiving several gifts.
While we were talking, another car arrived outside and someone honked the horn outside.
"Let's go, I guess the guests have arrived."
Shen Mengyao smiled.
A group of people came out to welcome the guests.
When they arrived at the door, Tang Qingshan and his wife were shocked.
