Chapter 64: It’s uncomfortable to be during the New Year

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the courtyard was busy pasting Spring Festival couplets and hanging red lanterns early in the morning.

The Spring Festival couplets of the Lin family were written by Qin Hao. The first couplet: The spring breeze and the book "The mountain" brings wealth and honor. The second couplet: The auspicious atmosphere is full of the family and the business world is safe forever. The horizontal banner: A bright future.

In the past few years, Lin Wufeng wrote the couplets of the Lin family. Later, Lin Wufeng discovered that Qin Hao's calligraphy was better than him, so the task fell on Qin Hao.

After posting Spring Festival couplets, Lin Dongzhe ran to the next door and urged: "Brother Tunan, why haven't you done it yet? Hurry up, let's go to the market together after posting it. Guanqian Street must be very lively today."

"Stop urging me, don't you write this." Zhuang Tunan glared at Lin Dongzhe, took a deep breath, and finished writing the last horizontal draft. There was no way for the two families to live opposite each other. His handwriting was like a crab crawling compared to Qin Hao's. If he didn't write it better, he would be embarrassed to hang it out.

After posting the couplet, Zhuang Xiaoting pulled Huang Ling and Zhuang Tunan to follow Qin Hao's family's team.

Xiang Pengfei went to Guizhou to spend the New Year with his parents.

Compared with last year, Guanqian Street on the first day of the Lunar New Year this year has become more lively, and the scale of stalls has been several times larger. This is also due to the gradual implementation of the reform and opening up policies and the relaxation of ideas, many things will be easier to handle.

"Zhuang Xiaoting, do you want to eat plum blossom cake? I'll buy a few pieces?"

"Yeah, I'll give you money."

"No, Brother Hao gave me a big red envelope last night, and I'll treat you to you."

Seeing Lin Dongzhe rushing to the stall where he bought plum blossom cakes, Qin Hao couldn't help but sigh that this guy is really precocious.

"The Chinese people who have been sleeping for a hundred years have gradually woken up and open their eyes. Look carefully..."

Any shops on the street that have audio will basically play this song "The Great Wall will never fall". As the theme song of the popular Hong Kong TV series last year, it immediately caused a frenzy after appearing on the Spring Festival Gala stage. Whether it is a young man or a man in his fifties and sixties, he tried to hum in plastic Cantonese.

Lin Dongzhe has unique advantages in this regard. As a "recurring offender" who has been watching Hong Kong and Taiwan movies all year round, his Cantonese level is much higher than that of English. In Song Ying's words, if Lin Dongzhe goes to Guangdong to work in the future, he will definitely be seamless.

"Hey, Brother Hao, look, is that our collector?" Lin Dongzhe suddenly exclaimed.

Following the direction of Lin Dongzhe's finger, Qin Hao indeed saw a department store selling "BBK" inclusion machine.

"The second brother is OK, the products are sold to Suzhou." Lin Wufeng was also a little surprised for a moment.

Qin Hao was not surprised at all. Inclusion machines have long been flooded in coastal areas. On the contrary, due to policy reasons, the inland market still has a lot of market space, but the corresponding competition is also very fierce. If Qin Hao had not endorsed the "BBK" and would not have the right to be placed at the counter in department stores at all.

The two families kept wandering until almost noon before returning home. However, before entering the door, they saw Zhuang Chaoying standing outside the courtyard with a dark face. After seeing Zhuang Tunan and Zhuang Xiaoting, they stepped forward and complained.

"Where did you go for the New Year?"

Zhuang Xiaoting subconsciously shrank behind Huang Ling and replied timidly: "We're going to the market."

"See the market? On the first day of the Lunar New Year, you don't go to grandparents' house to pay New Year's greetings to the market. Do you know that all of us have been waiting for you for a whole morning!" Zhuang Chaoying roared angrily.

Zhuang Xiaoting was startled, Huang Ling patted her hand and comforted her: "Who stipulates that New Year's greetings must be on the morning of the first day of the New Year. You can pay New Year's greetings for three days during the New Year, why are you shouting at the child!"

Zhuang Chaoying glared at Huang Ling: "I used to greet New Year's Day on the first day of the Lunar New Year..."

Just as the two were about to start arguing, Zhuang Tunan suddenly spoke.

"It was the past, nothing is unchanging, why not change it?"

Zhuang Chaoying looked at Zhuang Tunan in disbelief: "Tunan, how can you say that? How can you make your elders wait?"

"Grandpa and grandma have Zhendong Zhenbei, there are two more, and two less, and two less. Besides, what's the difference between going early and late?"

Now even Huang Ling and Zhuang Xiaoting were very surprised. In the past, Zhuang Tunan could not have said such words.

Zhuang Chaoying said with a heartache: "Tunan, how can this be the same? You are the eldest grandson of Zhuang's family. You forgot how much grandparents loved you before..."

Before he could finish his words, Zhuang Tunan sneered: "Yes, I really can't think of it if you don't say it. Grandpa and grandma love me. In the past, my mother was busy with the New Year's Eve dinner, and the snacks that grandpa and grandma gave us were also bought by you, right?"

"Tunan, you can't just say that just because I didn't pay for living expenses for a few months. I will give you living expenses. Come with me now to greet my grandparents." Zhuang Chaoying looked angry and said to be indifferent.

Zhuang Tunan's tone was very calm: "Dad, I'm not a child anymore. I will see right or wrong. In addition, I can earn my own living expenses now and I don't have to spend your money anymore."

"What are you saying? Are you going to cut off your relationship with me just because of a little living expenses?" Zhuang Chaoying was panicked, his voice drifting. He never dreamed that his son would treat him like this.

Zhuang Tunan shook his head and said, "Dad, you go back first. Xiaoting and I will go to greet grandparents tomorrow."

"You...Tunan, grandparents are old, and they hope that their children and grandchildren can be more filial. Why can't you understand?" Zhuang Chaoying patted the wall and said angrily.

Qin Hao really couldn't stand it anymore: "Teacher Zhuang, what you said is really interesting. Of course, I hope that my children and grandchildren are filial when they are old, otherwise I can still hope that my children and grandchildren will be unfilial and will not be miserable in my old age? Isn't this just like corrupt officials hoping that all the world is full of people who bribe him?"

"You...you're all blamed for your nonsense. You are not filial to the elderly, and it also affects our Tunan and Xiaoting. They are just learning bad things from you!" Zhuang Chaoying suddenly figured out a problem. Before moving to this courtyard, Huang Ling, Tunan and Xiaoting were obedient to him. But since they moved to this courtyard, everything has changed. Huang Ling is no longer "filial to her parents-in-law", and both children are also rebellious. In the final analysis, it happened after they came into contact with Qin Hao.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! Huang Ling can't stand it anymore: "Why are you crazy when Zhuang Chaoying is doing the New Year!"

"Dad, go, I beg you, we will go to greet grandparents tomorrow." Zhuang Xiaoting begged bitterly.

Zhuang Tunan had a cold face: "Dad, this is our family's business, don't take your anger on others."

"You...you..." Zhuang Chaoying covered his heart, and a stinging pain. He suddenly realized that his son, daughter, and wife had stood opposite him at some point, and the courtyard behind him seemed to have no place for him to sit.

Zhuang Chaoying returned to the banker in a daze. When Zhuang saw him coming back, he said with a stern face: "Hmph, this child is becoming more and more dissatisfied now. He slept until this point on the first day of the Lunar New Year. Let us wait for them at the age of age..."

As a result, after waiting for a long time, Zhuang Master didn't see Zhuang Tunan and Zhuang Xiaoting coming in.

"Chaoying, where are Tunan and Xiaoting?"

Zhuang Chaoying could only perfunctory: "Oh, Xiaoting is sick, Huang Ling and Tunan are taking care of her at home."

Zhuang Mian's eyes were not tolerated and she said sarcastically: "Why are you sick? I'm afraid you don't want to come to greet us two old guys?"

Master Zhuang became angry when he heard this. He slapped the table hard, pointed at Zhuang Chaoying's nose and cursed: "Look at the pair of good sons you have raised, ungrateful wolves, two ungrateful wolves, it's useless for us to treat them so well!"

Zhuang Chaoying was so scolded that he couldn't raise his head, and said bitterly: "Dad, mom, today Tunan asked me, where are you good to him, but I couldn't answer for a moment. Why don't you tell me what's good to them?"

Mr. Zhuang was stunned by the question, his mouth opened again and again, but when he reached his mouth, he swallowed the words back. Some trivial things were nothing more than just some snacks during festivals and holidays, and he really couldn't do it.

But Miao Zhuang stopped doing it and pointed at Zhuang Chaoying and cursed: "What do you mean by saying this? What's wrong with Tunan and Xiaoting? You touched your conscience and said, "Where did we treat them badly?"

Zhuang Chaoying still lowered her head and said in a muffled voice: "Mom, what you said is useless to me. The child is growing up... it's not the time for them to believe whatever you say."

"They can see, think, think."

In addition to being angry, Master Zhuang grabbed the teacup on the table, thought about it and put it down again. This was the most expensive set of tea sets in the house, and I felt really distressed if I fell.

"Zhuang Chaoying, after the New Year, you will divorce Huang Ling and get the child back. Otherwise, if this continues, the two children who have worked hard to raise will become someone else's family." Zhuang Mi urged.

Zhuang Chaoying couldn't help but flash his cold and unfamiliar face today, and he couldn't help but make up his mind.

"Yes, I'm going to grab the kid back."

On the other hand, the atmosphere in the courtyard was no longer full of the New Year due to the appearance of Zhuang Chaoying. Huang Ling and her family never came out after entering the house.

On the Lin family, Song Ying was still upset about Qin Hao: "Why is Teacher Zhuang like this? Why does he say that our Haozi leads Tunan and Xiaoting? Which one in the alley doesn't say that our Haozi is good?"

"If he hadn't run fast, I would have to argue with him."

Lin Wufeng poured a glass of water for Song Ying and comforted her: "Okay, don't you be angry anymore. Didn't the song written by Haozi say that, the world has its own justice..."

"Go, I sing so badly that I'm not afraid of Haozi's jokes." Song Ying gave him a blank look, and his anger was mostly gone. It was still the old couple who could control each other's pulse.

Lin Wufeng said to Qin Hao: "Haozi, Teacher Zhuang may be anxious for a moment, don't care."

"Uncle Lin, don't worry, I don't have time to argue with him. It's better to think about how to make more money with Uncle Lin Er."

After hearing Qin Hao say this, Lin Wufeng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He understood Qin Hao's character and never left overnight revenge. He avenged that day. After all, Zhuang Chaoying is the father of Tunan and Xiaoting. If he really wants to have a fight, the embarrassing thing is the two children.

In the next room, after a silence, Huang Ling took out more than ten dollars from her pocket and handed it to Zhuang Tunan.

"No matter what, it's your grandparents, so it's okay to go to pay New Year's greetings. Toonan, go to Yiming's small shop to buy some canned food and pastries, and go to your Aunt Song's house tomorrow to bring a piece of pork with you."

Zhuang Tunan didn't go to pick me up: "Mom, I made money as a tutor, so you don't have to give me money."

"How can you do it? You are still a student. You must focus on your studies..."

Before Huang Ling finished speaking, Zhuang Tunan said, "Mom, Haozi started making money very early, and many of our school's classmates are doing part-time jobs. Don't worry, I won't delay my studies."

"And my tutoring income is pretty good. When I save money to buy a TV with Xiaoting, I won't have to go to Lin Dongzhe's house to get a TV in the future."

"What is this kid talking nonsense? Mom can support you..."

"Mom, your monthly salary is more than 60 yuan. In addition, you can do handicrafts for Brother Yiming, which is only about 100 yuan a month. Our major in construction has to buy a lot of textbooks, which are very expensive. I have the ability to share a little for you now. I think this is good, really."

Huang Ling could no longer suppress her hugged Zhuang Tunan and cried loudly. Zhuang Xiaoting was also infected, and the family of three cried bitterly with their heads in their arms.

The next morning, Zhuang Tunan and Zhuang Xiaoting went to the dealer with gifts.

Master Zhuang crossed his legs and smoked a cigarette, not even looking at them.

Zhuang Mian naturally took the gifts brought by Zhuang Tunan and the others, and said, "Now these children have no minimum respect for their elders."

Zhuang Tunan and Zhuang Xiaoting looked at each other. They had already expected this situation before coming. As expected, they were not disappointed, and they just wanted to sit for a while before finding an excuse to go back.

As a result, after Master Zhuang cut off his cigarette's butt, he said to the two of them with a stern face.

"After the New Year, your parents are going to get divorced. Who are you with?"

Zhuang Chaoying's face suddenly changed: "Dad, why do you tell your child this..."

"Why can't you say it? You said that the children are grown up. Let them express their opinions now."

Zhuang Xiaoting's tears fell: "Dad, why do you want to divorce your mom?"

"Hmph, I'm going to say I should have divorced a long time ago. If it weren't for your good academic performance over the years, I was afraid of affecting you, I would have divorced a long time ago." Zhuang Lai curled her lips.

"Xiaoting, you said, are you, are you, your father or mother?"

Zhuang Xiaoting kept looking at Zhuang Chaoying: "Dad, tell me quickly, you and mom won't divorce."

Zhuang Chaoying lowered her head and did not dare to look at her daughter's eyes.

"Xiaoting, you have to remember that your surname is Zhuang, but not Huang, we are the family." Zhuang Mian tempted.

Zhuang Xiaoting pushed away Mrs. Zhuang's hand and exclaimed: "No, my mother and I are a family. You have never treated me as family. You have always been biased. My mother quarreled with her father in order to protect me, because it was because of you!"

"You were the ones who caused my parents to divorce, I hate you!"

Master Zhuang was furious and reached out and slapped Zhuang Xiaoting in the face.

Zhuang Tunan quickly protected his sister behind him and grabbed Zhuang's hand.

"Rebellion, rebellion, Zhuang Chaoying, look at your good son, you want to fight me!"
