The sound of firecrackers marks the end of the year, the spring breeze brings warmth to Tusu, and the new year is about to arrive with a new attitude.
After setting off the fireworks, everyone went into the courtyard together and started busying with the New Year's Eve dinner.
The sound of firecrackers outside the yard was heard one after another. Ling Xiaowei led Jia Jia in the alley to watch other people set off fireworks.
Jia Jia jumped up and down, as happy as a little rabbit.
It was after six o'clock, and the night was getting darker. Fireworks were blooming one after another in the sky. It was so beautiful that Ling Xiaowei was fascinated by it. Such a beautiful scenery, I really hope there is someone to share it with.
I don’t know if there are any fireworks in my hometown today.
Ling Xiaowei unconsciously thought of Shi Mingwei, wondering if he was also looking up at the fireworks in the sky under the same sky.
"Xiaowei, Jiajia, we're back for dinner." Yao Hong ran to the door and called them to come in.
In the main room, which was warm, there was a small swivel table in the middle of the large round table. It was filled with all kinds of delicious dishes. There was also a charcoal hot pot in the middle that was steaming.
Originally an empty nester's home with only two people, now it is full of people, old and young, and it is really lively.
The color TV in the house was turned on, with CCTV on. The news broadcast had just ended, and the Spring Festival Gala was about to begin.
"Do it all! Our family doesn't follow the rules that much." Grandpa said with a smile to Yao Hong and Cheng Xiang.
He had met Yao Hong before, but it was his first time meeting Cheng Xiang, but it did not hinder his welcome.
"Mom and Dad, this is my first New Year after I left this home and came back. I'd like to toast you two." Fu Rong said with emotion, her eyes turning red.
When she was young, she was very willful. Now that she is getting older, she realizes how wrong she was. No one loves her more than her parents.
"Okay...okay..." the two old people said yes again and again.
They haven't been so happy for a long time. Although they have regrets, they are very content now.
After a while, Yao Hong and Cheng Xiang also toasted one after another. They drank red wine, which was low in alcohol and could be drunk by both men and women.
Ling Xiaowei also wanted to try it and took a small sip. The taste was too strange.
"Add Sprite, add some Sprite to make dessert." Yao Hong said experiencedly.
Cheng Xiang and Fu Rong looked surprised, what is the operation of adding red wine with Sprite?
But seeing Ling Xiaowei adding Sprite to the red wine and showing a surprised expression, the two of them couldn't help but want to add it.
Everyone at the last table drank red wine with Sprite added, and they all thought it tasted better than pure red wine.
While the meal was in full swing, the Spring Festival Gala also started, with festive music and a very contemporary party stage. When familiar artists came on stage one by one, the laughter in the room never stopped.
After the New Year's Eve dinner, the three sisters were responsible for cleaning up, while the older and younger ones were watching TV.
At ten o'clock, the two old men couldn't bear it anymore and went to bed.
Jia Jia had already fallen asleep in Yao Hong's arms.
"Mom and Dad, go to bed! I'll watch over you tonight," Fu Rong said to the two elders.
Grandma and grandpa nodded. They were really sleepy. When they saw Xiaowei, grandma said: "Xiaowei, you should go to sleep too!"
"Grandma, I'll wait until midnight before drinking water. I'm not sleepy yet. Someone may call me to wish me New Year's greetings later!" Ling Xiaowei said with a smile.
"Oh, you have made a good friend now. It's great to say New Year greetings at midnight." Grandma said with emotion, "Okay, I'm going to bed, I'm old! It's useless."
After saying that, grandma and grandpa went back to the house to sleep.
Jia Jia was carried into a nearby room.
The room was tidied up and beds were set up for Cheng Xiang and Yao Hong to sleep.
Ling Xiaowei and Fu Rong slept in the same room.
Several others had been watching the Spring Festival Gala. Yao Hong was the one with the best energy. Her skits were very interesting and she kept giggling.
"This Chen Peisi is really funny." Yao Hong likes to watch his skits. She had watched all the galas in previous years in the factory and watched Chen's skits back and forth, especially the one about eating noodles.
The most interesting.
"You like him, maybe during the Chinese New Year, come and pay New Year greetings, and you will see." Fu Rong said to Yao Hong.
Yao Hong was shocked, "Really or not, he is a big star and he comes here to pay New Year's greetings?"
"What's so strange about this? Celebrities are human beings too. His family lives nearby and he's still a student of my father. When you see people coming to pay New Year's greetings tomorrow, don't make a fuss." Fu Rong took precautions in advance.
Needle.
It was also the first time for Ling Xiaowei to hear this. When her godmother said this, she felt nervous. This...we must not embarrass the two elders tomorrow!
After all, he is also an apprentice!
After getting along for a long time, Ling Xiaowei automatically filtered the social status of these two old people. Now that I think about it, these two are not ordinary old people, they have high status in society!
On the side, Yao Hong's face was obviously nervous, and so was Cheng Xiang's. Today, the two of them did not treat the two old people as bosses, but treated them as ordinary old people, and even made some jokes with them.
I really don't understand the rules.
"What expressions do you two have! I saw a celebrity tomorrow and took a group photo instead. I needed an autograph. If I missed it, I have to wait until next year." Fu Rong said with a smile.
Hearing what she said, Yao Hong and Cheng Xiang both laughed, and they felt no pressure at all.
The program became more and more boring as it went on. It was almost twelve o'clock, and there was still half an hour. Finally, there was a finale skit, and everyone had fun again. When "Unforgettable Tonight" sounded, the old year
It's about to pass, and the new year is really coming.
The crackling sound of firecrackers was heard outside the house again.
Yao Hong took a small whip and said, "I'm going to set off firecrackers at the door."
"Okay, I'll give you a light." Chengxiang followed with a flashlight.
Ling Xiaowei also followed and stood in the yard, watching the two set off firecrackers.
It's very lively outside. At this time on weekdays, thousands of families go to bed early.
After setting off the firecrackers and ushering in the new year, Ling Xiaowei returned to the room and just got into bed when the phone at home rang.
"It's so late, who called?" Fu Rong said in surprise.
She returned to China to celebrate the New Year and didn't tell anyone, but even if she did, those people abroad would not know how to call to say New Year greetings at this time.
"It's mine!" Ling Xiaowei said happily.
As soon as I picked up the phone, I heard Liu Yun's voice coming from the other side of the phone, "Xiaowei, Happy New Year."
"Liu Yun, I also wish you a Happy New Year. Well, I wish you have this day every year and this day every year." Ling Xiaowei pulled out a poem.
Liu Yun was laughing so hard on the other end of the phone, "You have already given me a blessing, so I will give you one too."
"Okay!" Ling Xiaowei was looking forward to it. She might as well save it for New Year greetings tomorrow.
"Then I wish you good health, a long life, all the best, and good luck." After Liu Yun finished speaking, he laughed happily.
Ling Xiaowei also laughed out loud. There was nothing wrong with this blessing, it was very down-to-earth.
