New Year’s Eve, West Garden.

The Chen family has officially moved from "Plum Garden" to "West Garden".

If moving from Qingfeng Village to Ke Town was from a farmer to a town, then moving from Ke Town to Yuezhou City was really a city man.

Oh, there is a small problem.

Chen Qiu and Chen Dong's household registration at this time were still agricultural household registration. If it weren't for the help of Zhang Hongbo, the deputy specialist in charge of science, education, culture and health, these two little guys would have been unable to transfer schools.

Chen Qiu went to the high school department of Yuezhou No. 1 Middle School, and Chen Dong went to Luxun Primary School. Both schools are the best schools in the urban area.

However, the two of them can only be considered as borrowing studies. When they want to take the junior high school entrance examination, they still have to go back to Kezhenyuan School to take the exam.

The third brother had excellent grades, and Chen Xia was not worried at all. As for the fourth brother, it was hard to describe it. He had 50 in the class, and he could get 40 in 40, so he would be blessed by Comrade Chen Bingkun.

When the principal of Lu Xun Primary School saw his grades, his constipation looked so constipated that Chen Xia was really unable to hold on to his old face.

To learn this thing, it really depends on talent. Fortunately, the Chen family is not short of money, so let him go to the pharmaceutical factory to manage the gate.

The West Garden is very large, and the father-in-law and mother-in-law have opened a vegetable garden in a corner of the garden, near the pool.

It was still winter at this time, so it was not suitable to plant anything. But the two old men had already discussed it enthusiastically many times and were preparing to start construction as soon as spring was about to start.

In the evening, the lights in the small western-style building were quite bright, and Chen Xia deliberately turned on all the lights in the rooms from the first to third floors.

At this time, the electric lights in rural areas are only 150,000, and families with better urban conditions will use 400,000 light bulbs just to make the home brighter.

But Chen Xia’s requirements are higher because he likes that the light source must be brighter, the brighter the better, so he always buys the light source with high brightness.

This time when he moved to Xiyuan, his only requirement for his mother-in-law was that except for the chandeliers used in the living room and dining room, all other rooms were abandoned and replaced with fluorescent lights.

For this, the construction team bought a batch of "Huguang Brand" fluorescent lights from a five-star store in the provincial capital. Chen Xia still disliked the brightness insufficient, so two fluorescent lights were installed in each room.

I don’t know whether this is the first one in Yuezhou urban area, but it is definitely the record of the largest number of single-time installations of private residences.

Before the Chinese New Year, Chen Fang and grandmother went back on holiday, and mother Gu cooked for dinner.

Gu Lin was helping by the side, saying that she was helping, but she also pouted and looked reluctant.

Since the little girl made scrambled eggs with tomatoes and put the whole tomatoes and eggs directly into the pot, Old Man Gu and Gu’s mother decided to teach this daughter a lesson.

If you get married, you have to look like you get married. Fortunately, the Chen family has no parents-in-law, otherwise such a lazy daughter-in-law wouldn't have been sent back to her parents' home?

So every day after get off work, Gu's mother will personally supervise her daughter to learn cooking, and she will directly serve the spatula if she is disobedient.

This made Chen Xia feel very distressed. He really wanted to yell at his wife's pitiful look:

"Mother-in-law, you're doing a good job~~~"

At this time, Old Man Gu wrote Spring Festival couplets in the study on the first floor. The old intellectuals' calligraphy was all basic skills. Chen Qiu and Chen Dong kept applauding next to him, making the old man so proud.

"Uncle Gu, hello, this brush is so beautiful."

Old Man Gu smiled and looked at his writing: "I'm old now, I can't write anymore. I was the one who was called "Flying Dragon and Flying Phoenix" back then."

Chen Qiu was more good at speaking and quickly flattered: "This is called an old horse in the stable, with ambitions of thousands of miles away. The martyr was in his old age and had ambitions."

“Hahaha~~~”

The three of them were having a great time chatting in the study.

Chen Xia was responsible for pasting Spring Festival couplets and the character "Fu" and there were also many lanterns hanging in the garden.

Chen Chun finally rushed back before the evening, and the family finally reunited. As for the two brothers-in-law, they still had to stick to the troops and did not come back.

This is the first time that the Chen family and Gu family celebrate the New Year in Xiyuan, so of course it should be more grand.

As for the New Year’s Eve dinner, the focus is on eating. The Chen family’s dining table is amazing. In addition to the various wild game purchased from Qingtan Commune in the mountains, such as pheasant meat, rabbit meat, wild boar belly, and Laogu chicken.

Another is seafood. When Chen Xia went to Zhoushan Islands to prepare New Year's goods this time, he specially asked the ocean fishing boat to help buy some precious crabs, big lobsters, big yellow croaker and base-tail shrimp.

I guess the old man in the capital can't eat this table of delicacies, right?

If someone sees it, he will definitely take it out for a tour/street, wear a tall hat on his head, "capitalist Chen Xia".

Seeing Gu Lin's hand secretly reaching to the dish plate and trying to steal it, Gu's mother saw it and beat it down with chopsticks. "There is no rules, hurry up and take the dish out."

"Mom, you have changed and become more and more strict. With Xiaofang and grandma here in our family, I don't have to cook and wash clothes at all, okay?"

"What a bullshit, that's why Xiao Xia is pampering you, but you can't do it, but you can't do it. A woman who can't even cook scrambled eggs with tomatoes, what qualifications do you have to say that I'm strict?"

Gu Lin felt bitter, and she couldn't understand why her husband called her parents to live with her?

It was not that good at first. She was at home, but she had food and clothes to reach out and her hands, and she lived happily every day. Now, my mother has retired and she is staring at her at home every day.

This is impossible to live this day!

Chen Xia had seen it at the door a long time ago and was secretly laughing. Of course, his purpose was to be able to take care of his father-in-law and mother-in-law, but another important reason was that someone could suppress Gu Lin.

In the evening, Chen Xia took out a bottle of Moutai liquor, and gave it to Old Man Gu and Gu's mother, and then to himself. Women and children drank Coke, and six people had a lively drink.

Old Man Gu suggested, "How about we say auspicious words? Let me first say, I wish our family good health."

Gu’s mother: “I wish my daughter and son-in-law to let me carry my eldest nephew as soon as possible.”

Chen Xia: "I wish my wife more and more beautiful."

Gu Lin: "I wish my husband to kill my dad and become the dean as soon as possible."

Chen Chun: "I wish Uncle Gu and his second child a smooth career."

Chen Qiu: "I wish Uncle Gu, Aunt Zheng, good health, I wish my elder sister to get married as soon as possible, I wish my elder brother and sister-in-law to have a noble son as soon as possible, and I wish my elder fourth place to reach the top 39 in the exam."

Hahaha, the group of people were laughing, and Chen Dong was almost crying: "Third brother, is there anyone who wishes you like this?"

Gu's mother asked with a smile: "Xiaodong, what do you want?"

Chen Dong thought for a moment, as if he had made up some determination: "Then I wish myself to win the 35th place in the class next semester and never let the third brother look down on him, hum."

Now everyone is so happy that they are stuck on the table that they can't get up.

Chen Qiu pointed at Chen Dong and scolded: "You are so stupid. What's the difference between you all 35 and 39? You have to make a wish."
Chapter completed!
