The New Year is coming soon, and Li Yan told his children not to come tomorrow and his master is going back to the countryside.

Ye Qing took the lion cat naughty into the car and went to his parents' house.

Li Yan drove back to Ancheng with his daughter.

In Ancheng, he handed over his daughter to his ex-wife Liu Fan and returned to Shitou Village by himself.

My mother was steaming buns, but my father had recovered to be close to normal. He was burning fire in the kitchen, and the stove in his hometown was still burning firewood. Li Yan felt very friendly when he smelled the familiar smell of fireworks.

"If I don't buy a house, will Xiaoqing marry us?" my mother asked while kneading the dough.

"Yes!" Li Yan's answer was very simple.

"Then get married quickly. You are getting older and getting older will always be unfavorable to you."

"It's okay, Ye Qing is not a fickle woman, she will sooner or later be your daughter-in-law."

"Don't worry about marrying your family. Silly boy, you have to hurry up." The mother instructed.

"Mom, what else do you need for the New Year? I'll buy it." Li Yan asked.

"Nothing is short, we will be happy when you come back."

When Li Yan heard this, he felt very ashamed. During the years he was with his ex-wife Liu Fan, he did not go home during the Chinese New Year twice, and his mother cried at the neighbor's house.

It is useless to make concessions to unreasonable people, and it is ultimately a divorce from Liu Fan.

Li Yan swept the yard and pasted Spring Festival couplets on both sides of the gate.

Ye Qing sent messages from time to time: "What are you doing?"

"Carry your home, sweep the yard, and paste Spring Festival couplets."

"Change a stronger bed?"

"Are you coming?" Li Yan replied and sent a smirk expression over.

"The legs of the bed are broken, shouldn't they be replaced?" Ye Qing rolled his eyes with a rolling expression.

"I'm going to build a kang, and many young people in our village sleep with kang."

Ye Qing might have seen it as a fire pit and replied: "Will it turn into roasted sweet potatoes when sleeping in the fire pit and bury some soil?"

"Note that it's a kang, not a fire pit!" Li Yan corrected.

Ye Qing immediately sent a smirk in his mouth.

After finishing the housework, Li Yan walked to his mother: "I will go to the branch to work in the evening and replace my uncle, otherwise my aunt will make trouble again. She won't make much money and will not be at home on New Year's Eve!"

The mother smiled and said, "I know your aunt quite well. Go and come back in the morning. No one steals anything during the New Year, and thieves have to celebrate the New Year."

Li Yan called his uncle Lao Chen: "Uncle, I will be on two shifts for you. For the New Year, you can have a good rest at home."

Uncle Lao Chen agreed to hang up the phone.

At night, accompanied by the sound of sporadic firecrackers, Li Yan drove to Niuzhuang Town Branch.

Take off the quilt from the car, and don’t live in the guard room. The women’s dormitory is cleaner. The bed is laid out and the electric heating is turned on. The room suddenly feels a little hot.

Turn off the lights and get into bed. The branch has no TV and can't watch the party. I can only go to bed early.

Not long after he lay down, he vaguely heard a "thump" sound in the yard. Li Yan suddenly became alert. Could it be that there was a thief?

No, thieves don’t have to rest during the New Year?

Looking out through the glass, there was indeed a thief! A black shadow tiptoed to the guard room and saw that there was no one inside. Then he walked to the workshop north with confidence.

Li Yan was paying close attention and held the nunchakra tightly in his hand. The workshop door was locked, and the thief did not enter through the door. He walked to the west-most window. The window was pushed by aluminum alloy. When the thief pushed the window, the window actually opened.

This window was not closed properly! Li Yan blamed himself for not checking it after the holiday, and the thief easily went in.

No, how did this thief know that the window was not closed properly? There is an insider in the branch?

At this time, two bags were thrown out of the window, and the thief jumped out.

Li Yan put on a down jacket, opened the dormitory door, rushed out with a pair of nunchaos in his hand: "Who? You are too brave!"

The thief was shocked, threw down his bag and ran, heading straight to the shortest wall, climbing up halfway through his hands and feet, Li Yan grabbed his ankle and pulled it down!

"Oh!" the thief called out, it was a woman.

Li Yan took off her mask and hat. Isn’t this the branch’s mechanics and skills simple?

"Brother Li Yan, spare me!" Niu Yiqian squatted on the ground and begged.

"Go to the dormitory and talk!" Li Yan was wearing only a pair of autumn pants, and was trembling with cold.

Niu Yiqian followed into the dormitory and Li Yan turned on the light.

"Tell me, why come to the company to steal things?"

Niu Yiqian lowered her head and didn't say anything.

"It's better to call the police!" Li Yan took out his cell phone from his pocket.

"Brother Li Yan, don't call the police. I agree to whatever you ask!" Niu Yi's eyes were red.

Li Yan stared at the woman in front of him, who was in his thirties, had a round face, fair skin, and looked a little similar to his first love girlfriend Bai Mei.

"Come on, I'll fall into your hands today, don't be polite." I wonder what Niu Yiqian read from Li Yan's eyes, "squeezing" and unzipping it, and then he was about to take off the down jacket.

"Wait! What do you mean?"

"You can do whatever you do, I just want you to let me go!" Niu Yiqian had already taken off her down jacket.

"What made you come out to steal things on New Year's Eve?" Li Yan asked with a calm face.

"My husband was in a car accident when he ran a car and was now paralyzed in bed. I didn't earn enough money to spend. I really couldn't help but want to steal some clothes and sell them for money." Niu Yiqian said, taking off the white warmth: "Hurry up, I need to go home quickly! My family doesn't know that I'm coming out to steal things."

"Put it on!" Li Yan yelled.

Niu Yiqian was so scared that she trembled.

"I'm not asking you to go into the dormitory to threaten you to do that! Put it on!" Li Yan handed her the clothes.

Then he sent a message to the branch quality inspector Yang Peipei: "How is Niu Yiqian's family situation?"

Yang Peipei replied to the message in seconds: "Her husband was paralyzed in a car accident and had two children. His family conditions were very difficult. Brother Li Yan, why are you asking about this?"

"fine!"

Li Yan looked at Niu Yiqian who had already put on his clothes and said gently: "Let's go, don't do this next time."

"Thank you, Brother Li Yan!" Niu Yi's face turned blushing.

"Wait, I'll add your friend!"

"I...I didn't bring my cell phone."

Li Yan took out a stack of money from his bag, which was about 2,000: "Your family is in trouble, I have too many, so I can only give you these."

"I can't ask!" Niu Yiqian's eyes were filled with tears and ran out of the dormitory.

Li Yan looked for the key to open the door and stuffed the money into her pocket.

Niu Yi closed his lips tightly, bowed deeply, and turned around and disappeared into the night.

Li Yan locked the door, took two packs of clothes in the yard into the workshop, and closed the windows.

Back in bed, Ye Qing sent a message: "Are you watching the party?"

"No, I'm on duty at the branch."

Then, Ye Qing sent a video invitation: "Why did you go to the branch?"

"It's the Chinese New Year, I should also let my uncle rest." Li Yan asked with a smile: "Are you sleeping in bed?"

Ye Qing blushed and pulled upwards to lower her collar and thermal underwear: "Let's watch TV together!"

As he said that, he pointed the camera at the TV.

The background music of the evening party is the second part of the Spring Festival overture. This piece of music is used to sensation every year. When the music sounds, the ups and downs of the past are pouring into my heart at the same time.

Li Yan's face suddenly became extremely painful: "Oh..."

"Dear! What's wrong with you?" Ye Qing pointed at the camera and asked anxiously.

"Oh... my calves cramped..." Li Yan hooked his waist, closed his eyes, and slowly returned to normal: "Okay, the room may be cold, by the way, what did you call me just now?"

"I called you dear, what's wrong?" Ye Qing's face turned red and she pouted.

"Dear, this title is good, so use it more in the future!" Li Yan felt warmth spread throughout his body.
