Chinese people attach great importance to traditional festivals, especially New Year's Day, which is equivalent to the beginning of a new year. Many business people will make good luck on this day, either by giving benefits to employees or holding a wonderful New Year's Day party.
Some large chambers of commerce will even blast off firecrackers and invite dragon and lion dance teams to drive away bad luck and usher in good luck.
Early in the morning, in Shi Zhijian's purchased villa, Axiang and Xiao Jinbao were busy killing chickens and geese, while Master Ma placed a memorial tablet to worship the gods.
This made Shi Zhijian very surprised. You must know that Master Ma is a practitioner of lowering his head. To put it bluntly, he believes in evil heretics, so he also worships traditional gods.
Master Ma explained that he worshiped the God of Wealth, and no matter what line of work he did, he asked the God of Wealth to reward him with food.
Outside the villa, Tang Long, Axejun and Aji were setting off firecrackers.
Aji was timid, so he put the long firecracker on the bamboo pole and hurriedly covered his ears. Then he took out the match and said, "Which one of you will light the fire?"

Tang Long and Axe Jun are two peerless men. You look at me and I look at you, but they don't even move.
Aji was anxious: "Hurry up and light the fire, this firecracker is so heavy!"
Tang Long said to Ax Jun, "Come here."
Ax Jun said: "You are the right one to come."
"Why should I come?" Tang Long asked.
"Because I came later, you have lived in this house longer than me." Ax Jun said.
"That's wrong. You are an old friend of Mr. Shi. You have been with him longer than me. For things like lighting firecrackers, you should be the one to do it!" Tang Long said.
"That's wrong," Ax Jun said, "I stay with Mr. Shi to do big things, not small things like this!"
Just as the two of them were bickering, Yan Xiong appeared at the door with a cigar between his teeth. Seeing Aji carrying the firecrackers pitifully on a bamboo pole, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "Hey, tell the truth, don't you dare?"
Light the firecrackers? If you don’t dare, just say so, I won’t laugh at you!”
"Who said that?" Axe Jun turned to look at Yan Xiong.
"You underestimate us!" Tang Long also glared at Yan Xiong.
Yan Xiong shrugged his shoulders, "Pu, your mother, I guessed it right, otherwise I wouldn't have reacted so big——"
"You are looking down on us again----"
Before Tang Long and Ax Jun could finish speaking, Yan Xiong stepped forward, took out the big cigar he was chewing, and lit the firecracker fuse directly----
Zizzi!
Crackling!
Firecrackers exploded!
Tang Long and Ax Jun moved in unison, plugging their ears and hiding behind Aji!
Yan Xiong was chewing his cigar and looking at the red dust on the ground with a proud look on his face. He turned around and saw Tang Long and Ax Jun, and curled his lips and said, "Don't tell me you know me when you go out in the future!"
…
After breakfast, Shi Zhijian, Tang Long and Aji drove directly to the Bangkok Orphanage.
He made an appointment with Dr. Fit and Mrs. Trish to come to the orphanage to visit the orphans and the elderly here today.
Since Shi Zhijian held a unique fundraising event last time, the conditions of the entire orphanage have been greatly improved. The most eye-catching thing is that the children in the orphanage are all wearing new clothes today.
Shi Zhijian got out of the car, asked Tang Long and A Liang to take out the gifts they brought to the orphanage from the trunk, and then took them in to meet the Feite couple.
When I arrived at the courtyard of the welfare home, I saw the couple bending down to hand out red envelopes to the poor children.
Logically speaking, giving out red envelopes is something that only happens during the New Year, but this ghost old couple didn't care about it. They thought that New Year's Day was the New Year, and it was the same for giving out red envelopes today.
After Dr. Feite handed out the red envelopes, he turned around and saw Shi Zhijian and others carrying large and small bags. He couldn't help waving: "Dear Shi, you are late. I have already had breakfast here! Now the children
The breakfast was very good, at least it had fresh milk!”
Shi Zhijian walked over with a smile, raised his hand and brought a gift: "Then do you want to eat some more candied fruits? There are also peanuts, melon seeds and so on!"
As soon as they heard there were snacks to eat, the children from the orphanage who had just received the red envelopes swarmed up again and surrounded Shi Zhijian and Tang Long.
"Don't grab it, everyone has a share!" Shi Zhijian smiled and handed the gifts to Tang Long and A Liang, asking them to distribute them to these children. Then he walked towards the Feite couple, shook hands with them and greeted them, and then said: "There is no distinction between charity and charity.
One after another, but every time I lose to you, I feel a little jealous!"
Dr. Fite laughed and said, "As you said, just do good deeds with intention, so why worry about whether it will be sooner or later? But having said that, I have always been very sorry to you. Yes, God, I didn't think of it last time.
It hurts you, but my scientific research project really needs financial support, and the Xie family can just provide it for me..."
"I understand, Dr. Fit, you don't need to talk so much!" Shi Zhijian smiled and didn't mind at all. "Besides, you just did what you thought was right."
Mrs. Tris stepped forward at this time and said: "Having said that, he hasn't had a good sleep for several nights since the last incident, and he keeps saying that he is very sorry for you!"
Shi Zhijian smiled, pointed to the front and said, "Why don't we go over there for a walk!"
So the three of them walked and talked.
Behind them, Tang Long and A Liang were shouting to maintain order, asking the children to line up and giving each of them a piece of melon seed candy, and, by the way, there were also sports toys such as footballs.
…
Shi Zhijian and the other three came to a small lake. The water was rippling and a few ducks were flapping their wings on the water.
Dr. Fit said: "Congratulations, dear Shi, I heard that you have been selected as an outstanding young man, equivalent to your ancient liberal arts champion, and you will be paraded on a float wearing a big red flower this afternoon."
"The doctor was joking. These are just some ancient traditions. Everyone is just trying to get lucky and join in the fun." Shi Zhijian said modestly.
"In fact, I admire your traditional culture and traditional etiquette very much. Unlike our United States, which has only been established for a few hundred years and doesn't even have any cultural heritage!" Dr. Fitt sighed and said. "If possible, in the afternoon
I will go to the scene with my wife to cheer you on."
Shi Zhijian smiled slightly when he heard this: "Doctor, if I were you, I would just stay at home this afternoon and not join in the fun."
"Uh, what do you mean?" Dr. Fit was stunned.
Shi Zhijian glanced at Dr. Fit, then at Mrs. Tris, and said: "You are good people, at least you are very good people since I have known so many ghosts! So, please listen to my advice!"
Dr. Fit always felt that Shi Zhijian's words were meaningful. He wanted to continue asking but saw that Shi Zhijian was unwilling to discuss this topic anymore, and it was difficult to say anything else immediately.
Then the three of them talked about other things casually. Shi Zhijian said that he had something to do and left first.
Dr. Fit knew that Shi Zhijian was a busy man and did not stop him. He just said hello and had tea with him when he was free.
After Shi Zhijian left, Mrs. Cuisi stepped forward and said to her husband: "Although I am a woman, I still feel that something is wrong with my dear Shi..."
"Yes, your feeling is correct." Dr. Fit pinched his chin and looked at Shi Zhijian's back and said, "Let's not join in the excitement this afternoon!"
…
After leaving the orphanage, Shi Zhijian drove to the factories purchased by Li Xuexuan again. Accompanied by Li Xuexuan and others, he not only inspected the construction work of the factories, but also spoke to the workers who had returned to work.
Shi Zhijian is already familiar with the content of his speech, which is nothing more than "I am for everyone, everyone is for me", "I am a brick in the factory, I can move it wherever needed", and "The factory is my home, everyone loves it", etc.
wait.
After speaking, Shi Zhijian, accompanied by Li Xuexuan and others, booked a banquet at the hotel and had a New Year's Day dinner, which was everyone's first official dinner.
During the banquet, Shi Zhijian refused to drink. Even if someone proposed a toast to him, he would refuse with excuses.
Some people thought he was arrogant, warm on the outside but cold on the inside. Those who knew the inside story said, "That's because the boss is going to participate in the float parade this afternoon. It's always ugly when he's drunk!"
After hearing this, those who felt uncomfortable were relieved.
Only Li Xuexuan always felt that something was wrong with Shi Zhijian today. Apart from anything else, every time he talked to him, his eyes and tone were much gentler.
Finally, Li Xuexuan saw that Shi Zhijian couldn't drink, so as the female boss, she took the initiative to take her place.
Fortunately, her drinking capacity was acceptable and she was able to hold her own, which made the factory executives look at her with admiration again as a heroine among women.
When the banquet was over and before Shi Zhijian got in the car and left, Li Xuexuan got into Shi Zhijian's car ahead of him and asked his driver A Liang to drive behind him. As for Tang Long, who was acting as a bodyguard, he sat behind in A Liang's car.
After arranging these, Li Xuexuan said to Shi Zhijian, smelling of wine: "Do you mind if you give me a ride?"
Shi Zhijian knew that she had something to say to him, so he also got in the car and asked Aji to drive slowly to Li's house.
"I've been in the factory for several days and haven't even had a comfortable hot bath. I'm so dirty all over my body!" Li Xuexuan drank wine, her pretty face turned rosy, her eyes wandered, and she shook her hair in disgust.
But Shi Zhijian stretched out his fingers to pick up a strand of her hair and smelled it at the wing of his nose. He looked up into Li Xuexuan's beautiful eyes and said, "What's dirty there? It smells so good!"
When Li Xuexuan heard this, her heart warmed up, and her beautiful eyes said affectionately: "You don't dislike it?"
"Well, I don't mind it!"
Li Xuexuan suddenly got emotional and hugged Shi Zhijian and kissed her.
Shi Zhijian did not struggle and allowed to be "bullied" by her.
Aji, who was driving in front, heard something moving behind him and inadvertently looked through the rearview mirror. Oh my god, he had never seen this scene before. He was stunned in shock!
"Look ahead and drive well!" Li Xuexuan continued to hug Shi Zhijian and kissed him forcefully, while ordering Aji.
Aji quickly moved his eyes away, not daring to take another look in the rearview mirror. He just swallowed hard, feeling that his throat was dry and his whole body felt dry.
A moment----
Li Xuexuan let go of Shi Zhijian, then pursed her red lips with the back of her hand, and asked Shi Zhijian with a smile: "So, do you think I'm dirty?"
Shi Zhijian shook his head: "I don't mind! Even your wine smells delicious!"
Li Xuexuan chuckled and buried her head on Shi Zhijian's shoulder. In a rare little daughter's manner, she played with Shi Zhijian's tie and said, "I feel so happy now. You are mine alone.
People fight with me and rob with me."
Shi Zhijian reached out and stroked her hair, "If you are more obedient, I will love you even more in the future!"
Li Xuexuan looked sideways at Shi Zhijian: "Do you often say such love words to other women?"
"Can you point to other women?"
"Do you have to tell me? Of course it's your Nie Yongqin, Su Youwei, and Bai Ledi!" Li Xuexuan rolled her eyes at Shi Zhijian, "To be honest, am I really not as good as them?"
"No, you are very good." Shi Zhijian rubbed Li Xuexuan's beautiful eyebrows with his thumb, "Even your beauty is more gorgeous than theirs in my eyes."
"You're coaxing me again." Li Xuexuan continued to roll her eyes, "I have seen Nie Yongqin and the others, they are all beautiful and fragrant from different countries----"
"But you have a lot of character. A woman with character is a perfect woman, otherwise she can only be a vase."
When Li Xuexuan heard this, a shy smile appeared on her face, "Although I know you are lying to me, I feel very comfortable in my heart." After a pause, he added, "But you are very unusual today, you know?"
"What's wrong with me?"
"I can't tell." Li Xuexuan showed a trace of melancholy on his face, holding Shi Zhijian's face and looking into his eyes: "I always feel that you are different today than before. You should be happy today, and you have to go on a float in the afternoon, but you can
Why do I feel that you are very cautious? Is something going to happen?"
"How could it be?" Shi Zhijian stretched out his hand, took Li Xuexuan's hand, moved her hand from his face, looked at Li Xuexuan and said: "You are too sensitive, I am very good, and it was true this afternoon.
It’s a great event, isn’t it?”
Li Xuexuan suddenly shook her head, "No, I don't want you to participate in the float parade this afternoon!"
"Why?"
"I don't know, I just feel bad! Please don't go, okay?" Li Xuexuan said to Shi Zhijian in an almost pleading tone.
"You're drunk, I'll take you home!" Shi Zhijian comforted her.
"I'm not drunk! You know, I'm not drunk!" Li Xuexuan said, "I just don't want you to participate in activities in the afternoon. Can you stay with me at home? I beg you!" Li Xuexuan took Shi Zhijian's hand.
Shaking vigorously, with pitiful eyes, he prayed like a weak little girl.
Shi Zhijian smiled and said, "Even if I were willing, your father wouldn't be willing! This time I was selected because of his great efforts. This time I went to the parade to give him face!"
"Then when I tell him, I'll tell him that you're sick. No, I'll tell him that I'm sick and ask you to stay with me!"
"Stop being childish!" Shi Zhijian touched Li Xuexuan's head, "Your father is not the only one waiting to see my performance today, there are hundreds of people. If I don't go, they will be very disappointed!" After that!
, Shi Zhijian looked out the window, "Your home is here!"
Li Xuexuan didn't know how she was coaxed out of the car by Shi Zhijian. After drinking so much wine during the banquet, she was completely drunk now.
Shi Zhijian safely handed her drunken girl to the Li family maid, and then left with peace of mind.
After Shi Zhijian got back into the car, he immediately took off his suit jacket and shirt, then asked Tang Long to take out the bulletproof vest he had prepared early in the morning, arrange it and put it on, and then put the shirt and jacket on outside.
At first glance, it was impossible to tell what he was wearing under his shirt and coat.
"Aji, go to Chinatown!" Shi Zhijian tugged on his tie, "Watch my performance!"
