"Hey, why is this kid still like this? Ah Rui, even your brother doesn't teach him."

Zhao Guozhong shook his head and assumed the posture of an elder.

Chen Rui smiled and said: "What's so good about smoking? If I couldn't quit, I wouldn't smoke either."

"He has no luck. Come on, I'll order some for you."

Zhao Guozhong diligently lit a cigarette for his nephew Chen Rui, which made Chen Rui feel a little embarrassed.

In fact, of course he doesn't like to see this uncle who always comes to his house to catch the autumn breeze, but he is just such an uncle, and the most important thing is that his mother is just such a biological brother, and it is not easy for him, the eldest son, to imitate his younger brother and shame him for this uncle.

look.

I lit up the cigarette and took a puff, not to mention that it really smelled like ginseng.

"How's it going? Not bad," Zhao Guozhong asked with a smile.

"It's okay, it smells like ginseng."

"Definitely, smoking a ginseng cigarette like this when you are tired will not only improve your energy, but also strengthen your body."

"Haha, I really believe it."

…

Chen Feng walked to the kitchen and asked his mother directly: "Mom, why is my uncle here?"

"He has just come back from other places. His house has not been tidied up yet, so he cannot live in it for the time being. It is New Year's Eve, so he will stay at our house for a few days. You can tidy up your room upstairs later and give it to him.

sleep."

"Why are you sleeping in my room? Can't you let him sleep in the empty room on the third floor?" Chen Feng was a little reluctant.

"There are a lot of sundries in the room on the third floor, and the bed hasn't been made yet. Would you like to clean it?"

Yes! One sentence killed Chen Feng instantly. He had to change the subject and ask: "Where has he been in the past few years?"

"They say they are in the Northeast, doing cross-border business."

It was such a big business. Chen Feng asked: "Have you paid back our family's money?"

"It's the New Year, why are you asking this? We have to wait until the New Year is over to talk about anything."

"Yeah, that means I haven't paid back the money."

"Okay. Why are you so worried? It's not easy for your uncle to be alone."

Chen Feng couldn't help but rolled his eyes. Knowing that there was no point in talking, he went back to his room at the back, closed the door and checked his cell phone.

There are four sisters and brothers of Zhao Xiaolan. Their parents passed away more than ten years ago. Zhao Xiaolan is ranked third. There are older brothers and sisters above. Unfortunately, the elder brother also passed away a few years ago. There are three siblings left. Of course, the two older sisters take special care of their younger brothers.

.

Therefore, even though Chen Feng despised this uncle, there was nothing he could do.

The head of their family has always been his mother, Zhao Xiaolan.

Chen Feng didn't come out of the room until his mother came over and told him to go eat.

Brother-in-law Zhao Guozhong was already sitting and drinking with Chen Dayong and Chen Rui, and he was talking and giving advice without stopping.

Being able to speak well is Zhao Guozhong's only advantage.

At the New Year's Eve dinner on New Year's Eve, Chen Feng didn't want to cause any unpleasantness, so he said a few words to his uncle during the dinner and toasted him with a glass of wine.

The whole family, including a brother-in-law, were chatting and laughing and having a good time.

When the Spring Festival Gala almost started, everyone left the table one after another and went to the canteen in front to watch the Spring Festival Gala.

Chen Feng had a color TV in his room, but it would be boring to watch the Spring Festival Gala alone, so he also watched it at the canteen.

The TV in the canteen is only 32 inches, which is a bit small, but it looks festive and lively when there are many people watching it. Everyone is eating snacks and watching the Spring Festival Gala, and everyone has a relaxed and comfortable expression on their face.

Chen Feng went back to his room when it was past ten o'clock. At this time, the WeChat notification tone on his cell phone kept ringing.

It was sent by several women he knew, including old classmates Wang Fang and Fang Xiaoyue, who also sent him WeChat messages. In addition to New Year blessings, they all wanted to invite him out for a get-together.

But for these two female classmates who were somewhat proactive, Chen Feng was really respectful and insensitive, and just typed a few perfunctory sentences.

The more difficult thing to deal with here is Guo Mengyao. She sent him a WeChat message at around eight o'clock this morning, asking him like an old friend if he was up?

Speaking of which, the two of them had not contacted each other for almost ten days. Chen Feng originally thought that they had mutually cooled down and became familiar strangers, or that they had returned to a simple classmate relationship after meeting again.

Chen Feng was a little surprised by her sudden contact with him again, as if nothing had happened.

Chen Feng deliberately waited more than ten minutes before replying that he had just gotten up.

Guo Mengyao replied almost instantly: [Okay, come out and accompany me to the city to buy some clothes. I don’t have time to buy clothes during the Chinese New Year this year]

Chen Feng immediately refused: [It’s New Year’s Eve today, so the shopping mall should not be open]

[Those open during the day will close at night]

[I can’t go, I have a lot of things to do at home]

Of course Chen Feng didn't want to accompany her to the mall on New Year's Eve, even in the city.

A few minutes later, Guo Mengyao sent him a video chat invitation directly.

At that time, Chen Feng was watching TV with his father and brother at the canteen. He refused to answer the call and typed quickly: [My parents are here, what are you doing?]

Guo Mengyao sent a picture of a proudly laughing emoticon, and then typed: [If you don’t accompany me, I might kill you and come to your house]

[I really don’t have time today, let’s talk about it after the New Year]

To be honest, Chen Feng was a little reluctant to completely break off the relationship with her. Previously, he was just afraid that she would show true feelings for him, so he deliberately ignored her.

What's more, Chen Feng really wants to buy shares in her company, so that he can find a financial support for his family in the future. After he grows up in the future, his parents can get a lot of dividends from her company every year.

This can be regarded as a double insurance for parents. Previously, pension insurance was the first level, and investing in her company was the second level.

To do this as a son, Chen Feng can be considered filial enough.

When Guo Mengyao saw what Chen Feng had said, she knew that it would be hard to ask him out today, so she didn't force him anymore.

I typed according to his wishes: [Well, let’s make an appointment again after the Chinese New Year. Remember, don’t let me go, or I will really come to your house]

[Absolutely not, I will try to find you on the third or fourth day of the junior high school]

Seeing Chen Feng's reply, Guo Mengyao finally had a smile on her face. She was finally convinced that Chen Feng was still reluctant to let go of her.

She thought to herself that I still thought you were hard-hearted, but you still couldn’t let me go. If you took the initiative a little bit, you would immediately take the bait. Humph! Man!

This was what happened in the morning. In the evening, Guo Mengyao frequently sent him WeChat messages and pictures, asking him what he had for New Year’s Eve dinner and how many people in his family were celebrating the New Year? Chen Feng could only say a few perfunctory sentences at first, but later he was too lazy to reply.

After Chen Feng didn't reply, she kept sending pictures, including her selfies, photos of a New Year's Eve dinner, and other photos, which Chen Feng didn't even bother to look at.

In addition to her sending pictures like this, Sun Xiaorui was not very worried. When he was having New Year's Eve dinner, she directly sent him a video chat invitation. Chen Feng hesitated for three seconds and finally refused.

She then sent a few pictures of confused expressions, and Chen Feng gave her a text reply: [Inconvenient]

Only a few minutes later, Sun Xiaorui sent a video chat to his mother, Ella Zhao, but Ella Zhao hung up without even thinking about it.

Chen Feng had already taken the initiative to add Zhao Xiaolan's WeChat account at Sun Xiaorui's request, and Zhao Xiaolan also approved her friend application.

At first, she was of course quite satisfied with Sun Xiaorui. After all, her son would no longer be single once he had a girlfriend, but then Wu Mengting came over and she immediately relegated Sun Xiaorui to the cold palace.

It cannot be said that she is too cold-blooded. First of all, she and Sun Xiaorui have never met in real life, let alone have any communication, so naturally there is no friendship or affection.

Secondly, Wu Mengting interacted with her every day in those days. Whether it was appearance, temperament, family background, or geographical relationship, she was far ahead of Sun Xiaorui. If she was asked to choose, of course she would choose Wu Mengting as her daughter-in-law.

And after getting along with each other for a few days, Zhao Xiaolan also developed feelings for Wu Mengting.

The result was naturally like this. She was definitely on Wu Mengting's side, and she had already asked Chen Feng to find an opportunity to break up with Sun Xiaorui.

Zhao Xiaolan has made her attitude clear, and Sun Xiaorui is out in her heart.

But Sun Xiaorui didn't know the reason, so she felt aggrieved and asked him on WeChat why his mother refused to accept her video conversation.

Chen Feng directly told her the truth that his mother had fallen in love with Wu Mengting and planned to make her his daughter-in-law. Other women had no chance with her.

Chen Feng did this on purpose, of course, and the purpose was to remind her not to think about unrealistic fantasies such as marrying him because her mother would not be able to get through this.

Sure enough, after Sun Xiaorui knew the reason, she didn't send him another WeChat message for a long time.

Chen Feng was very satisfied with this. After all, she was just a lover he kept, not his real girlfriend.

It wasn't until after ten o'clock that she sent him another message. Most of them were random photos and selfies of his family. There were photos and close-ups of a table full of dishes, as well as photos with her brother.

, a photo of the whole family...

At this time, Wu Mengting, Guo Mengyao, Lin Yujiao, Fang Xiaoyue, and Qin Xiaorou also sent him many photos, as if they had made an appointment.

As a result, his cell phone kept ringing, so he had to go back to his room first.

After interacting with these women, the time quickly reached zero o'clock, the hourly time signal ended, the new year arrived, and the whole world seemed to be crackling with firecrackers.

Their family also bought firecrackers, and they were setting them off in front of the gate fearfully. The whole town was filled with the sound of firecrackers.

After waiting for several minutes, the sound of firecrackers gradually subsided.

But this is just the beginning. According to their New Year habits and traditions, the firecrackers will last all night on New Year's Eve.

Therefore, Chen Feng had the foresight to take a nap in the afternoon. He would not be too sleepy and sleep soundly at night.
