Thousands of lights are on, and thousands of families are eating. After the lanterns first come on, there are very few vehicles driving on the road. The occasional vehicles are driving, and the speed is very fast. It seems that they are rushing home to have a reunion dinner. The broadcasts in the carriages are all It’s about the joy and laughter of New Year’s Eve, the whole city is here
It became warmer, and it seemed like the laughter of old people and children could be heard in every house.
Ye's old house.
The large old house was extremely quiet, without the New Year atmosphere of other homes. On the dining table, which was large enough to accommodate twenty people, only Mr. Ye, Mrs. Ye and Ye Jingshang's family were scattered, and no one else was there.
Ye Qing has been hungry for a long time. She didn't get up until noon today and didn't eat much lunch. It was hard to wait till evening. The food was not served for ten minutes after it was served. She was impatient to wait, but she didn't dare to cry out that she was hungry. , I can only continue to endure it.
Old Mrs. Ye's face didn't look good. She had no appetite at all when looking at the New Year's Eve delicacies on the table. Everyone could see that she was unhappy and no one dared to offend her.
Finally, it was Ye Hong who said: "A Cheng has already said that he won't come over for dinner on New Year's Eve. You don't have to wait for him. Let's start dinner." "If someone who is celebrating the New Year refuses to come back for a meal, does he still think that I am his grandma?" , Does he still see us two old people in his eyes? We are not dead yet. If we were to die, he would not even offer us a stick of incense." Mrs. Ye's anger is no longer there.
Unable to hold back, I exploded.
Ye Hong frowned: "What are you talking about during the Chinese New Year? If Cheng doesn't come, won't you still have Business and Qingqing to accompany you? So what if he comes? In addition to extra pairs of chopsticks, do you expect him to be able to work with you?" Are you joking?"
Old Mrs. Ye was silent. She knew very well that Ye Lancheng could not talk and laugh with her. He resented her in his heart and probably wished she would die soon.
"Okay, don't make trouble during the Chinese New Year. Let's eat." Ye Hong picked up the chopsticks and said to Ye Jingshang and his family: "Eat, Qingqing, you are starving, drink some soup first to moisten your stomach."
"Thank you, grandpa." Ye Qing was finally able to eat and quickly asked the servant to serve her soup.
Ye Jingshang and Zhu Fangqin were immersed in eating, trying to minimize their presence, for fear of saying the wrong thing and making Mrs. Ye angry.
Old Mrs. Ye became even more angry when she saw the two of them acting submissively. None of them combined could compare to Ye Lancheng, but the one who liked her didn't want to see her. What kind of evil had she done?
Lantingju. Compared with the atmosphere of the Ye family's old house, this place is much livelier and warmer. There is a family sitting on a dining table that is not that big. There are only five people including Aunt Rong, and there is no food. There is a lot of food at the old house. The whole family can eat happily.
The meal was quiet, and everyone had smiles on their faces. On this day last year, An Zhisu didn't dare to think that she would have a home of her own this year. In this home, she has a grandmother who loves her, a husband who dotes on her, and a husband who values her. She is like a daughter-in-law. This must be God’s greatest compensation for her. She wants to
The hardships she had experienced before must have been to accumulate blessings and marry Ye Lancheng. From then on, all Ye Lancheng gave her was happiness. From then on, her world was all sunny.
There is a custom of keeping the year old in various places on New Year's Eve, and City S is no exception. Every year on New Year's Eve, the family will watch the Spring Festival Gala in front of the TV while keeping the year old, and welcome the arrival of the first day of the New Year together. In addition to watching the New Year's Eve in Lantingju, In addition to the Spring Festival Gala, there is another activity that is making dumplings. This is mainly due to a custom that An Zhisu heard from somewhere. It is said that there is a custom in the northern rural areas that on New Year's Eve, one has to put a hard piece of bread in the dumplings.
Coins, cook the pot on the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, and those who can eat the coins will be blessed throughout the year.
This is different from the custom of S City. According to the custom of S City, glutinous rice dumplings are eaten on the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year. But everyone is used to An Zhisu. If she wants to eat dumplings with coins wrapped in them, she will eat dumplings. The important thing is to ask for money.
Lottery, what to eat is the next best thing.
An Zhisu's dumpling-making skills have improved by leaps and bounds under Ye Lancheng's "careful guidance", and her dumplings are getting better and better. Although she still can't compare with her grandmother, she can already catch her eye. She feels that if she makes more dumplings, she will definitely be able to compete with her grandmother.
One by one.
After all, great teachers make great disciples.
…
City S, a high-end community. He Siyi is nestling on the sofa in the apartment. Now she has moved out of the old and shabby house where she lived before and moved into this high-end apartment. The decoration behind her is exquisite and elegant, and her buttocks
The sofa is expensive and comfortable. The room has a constant temperature of 2
6 degrees, not cold at all.
But she was still wrapped in a blanket. She huddled herself in the blanket, staring at the TV screen that was playing the Spring Festival Gala without focus. She had no idea what program was playing on it. It was New Year's Eve again, and again
It was herself. He Siyi didn't realize until tonight that no matter whether she lived in a dilapidated old house or a luxurious apartment, she was still a person after all, and she would not live in this kind of house just because she had changed to a better house.
spring
During the Lantern Festival, she will not feel lonely.
Still lonely, still sad, still missing my brother.
elder brother……
He Siyi buried her head. She missed her brother. It would be great if her brother was still alive. If her brother was still alive, he must hate herself now. She turned into what he least wanted to see. She often thought
, if a person is reunited with his family after death, will her brother refuse to be with her because of what he has done?
Meet?
elder brother……
If I can see you after I die, please don't be angry with me. Please see me because I really miss you.
Ding dong ding dong ding dong…
Suddenly, the doorbell rang in the apartment, which was silent except for the sound of the TV. He Siyi was startled. She didn't open the doorbell after it rang for a while.
She didn't know who was ringing the doorbell outside the door, so she gave up when she saw no one answered inside. However, He Siyi soon received a WeChat message. When she opened it, there were only two words.
Fang Cheng: Open the door.
He Siyi was startled, and then slowly got off the sofa. She didn't even put on slippers, and went to open the door with bare feet.
As expected, the person standing outside the door was Fang Cheng. He was wearing a black down jacket, jeans, and sneakers. He came in the cold. The heating in the room rushed out, and the alternation of hot and cold made him shiver.
"Why are you here?" He Siyi turned sideways to let him in.
Fang Cheng shook his head: "I won't go in. You go change your clothes and I will take you somewhere."
"Where are you going so late?" He Siyi asked in confusion.
"We'll find out when we get there." Fang Cheng showed his usual evil smile again: "Are you afraid that I'll sell you out?"
He Siyi sneered: "Do you dare?"
"I don't dare. If I sell you, Brother Li can skin me alive." Fang Cheng was immediately frightened and chuckled: "I'll take you to a good place. Go and change clothes quickly. It's best to change into clothes that suit your needs."
He Siyi didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd, but she was bored staying at home, so she agreed and turned around and entered the bedroom.
Fang Cheng did not enter the room, but leaned against the door to smoke. He Siyi changed clothes and came out before finishing half the cigarette.
Wearing a white down jacket, a black turtleneck sweater, and dark blue jeans, at first glance, she looked like she was wearing a couple's outfit with him, which was quite pleasing to the eye.
"Beautiful." Fang Cheng snapped his fingers: "Change your shoes, don't wear high heels." He Siyi changed into a pair of white sneakers at the entrance, took only her mobile phone and keys and went out with Fang Cheng. They were very light and without any
