CHAPTER XXXI

Liu Yi completely remembers wrong, at this time the grandparents were at the fourth uncle's house, the fourth uncle bought a house in the urban village, he owned half of the property rights of the house, there was money from the grandparents, and the grandparents paid for an additional layer on their upper floor, it turned out that there were only two floors, the first floor was rented, the second floor lived by themselves, the third floor was lived by the grandparents, but unfortunately it was cold in winter and warm in summer, and it was not comfortable to live, and Liu Yi was called up by his parents early in the Chinese New Year's Eve, and after dressing, he went to the grandparents' residence with gifts, walking on the familiar and old road, Liu Yi couldn't help but sigh, how many years, the appearance of grandparents is not too clear, and now I see them at the age of sixty.

"Fourth uncle. "The fourth uncle is waiting for their arrival at the door, the Chinese New Year's Eve is the whole family to cook together, Liu Yi's family, the father's side is a huge family, in response to the call of the country, grandma gave birth to eight in one breath, this year except for the three aunts, all the other families have arrived, the eldest uncle, the second uncle, the fourth uncle, the fifth uncle are all there, the eldest uncle's family only has a son, the eldest daughter has been married, in the in-law's house for the Spring Festival, the second uncle has a son and a daughter, the son is the same age as Liu Yi, one month older than Liu Yi, the fourth uncle has only one daughter, the fifth uncle's daughter is still very young, only four years old, the room is not big, when a large family is crowded together, it seems crowded, everyone comes early, uncle, they all arrived a day early, and at this time, the lobby brother had just gotten married and came over with his daughter-in-law.

There has been no such atmosphere for a long time, Liu Yi went upstairs to greet his grandparents first, and now he still has some status at home, after all, he is the only boy in the family who has studied in high school, and the lobby brother and the second cousin are over when they read junior high school, and the second cousin is now studying in a vocational school, according to the trajectory of his previous life, he went to the army in 99 or 2000, and now the family is very complete, and the most favorite joke and brag is the lobby brother, with him, there is always no lack of laughter at home, many cows are just because he has not seen it, and now Liu Yi is not interested in debunking, including Liu Yi himself also loves to brag when he was youngIt wasn't until he had been tempered in society for a long time that he changed himself.

"One, how are your exam results this year?" The only person who asked this question was my grandfather, who was an old-school intellectual, who went to high school in Wuhan when he was young and was escorted to Wuhan University, but unfortunately it happened that the Liberation War broke out at that time, and the whole country was in chaos, so he didn't go to university to study, otherwise their family is at least a cadre's family now. Grandpa because it was taught by the old society private school, the level of calligraphy and painting is still quite high, and later in the Cultural Revolution period endured all kinds of tribulations, after rehabilitation, the whole person became a little decadent, grandma is from a young lady's family, she will not work since she was a child, and it is the same when she is old, she also went through the ordeal, grandma likes to brag, there is nothing in the world that she can't do, and the people in her family are very powerful, but in fact, they are also average.

"It's okay. Liu Yi replied with a smile, "I am now in the top fifteen in the class." "Liu Yi doesn't know what the old people expect, maybe they can be admitted to university.

"Continue to work hard, be sure to enter the top few in the class, and win glory for the Liu family in the future. Grandpa nodded, in his opinion, the results were okay.

"You are the only one in our family who is studying, and you have developed that day, but you have to take care of us. "Brother Liu Ming obviously still has a little sour taste, his life is not very good, there is no formal job yet, some time ago he was introduced by his aunt to drive for a boss, he is the first person in the family to have a driver's license. Brother Lobby's level is not good, he is a little stingy, the whole person is not bad, he also has a bit of a taste of autumn wind in his words, in case it is really developed, he can also be stained, Liu Yi just smiled, no matter how much he gave, it is not as good as earning it himself, giving him He will only feel that you have money and should give, Sister Lobby later has money in the family, so he often subsidizes Brother Lobby, no matter what is complete for him, but Brother Lobby enjoys all this as a matter of course, which makes Liu Yi feel a little disgusted, people still have to rely on themselves to be more dignified, even if Liu Yi now feels a little shameless, but it has not yet reached the level of being raised。

"Less, reading is just to increase cultural knowledge, and those who make a fortune are bosses, when did you see that intellectuals are developed. The second cousin said with some schadenfreude.

The second cousin has his own way of life, and the later situation Liu Yi is also quite clear, he has a better face and is impulsive, but he is still righteous and angry, and Liu Yi can't talk to them in later generations, because they are not people of the same world at all, they live at the bottom of society, they have to worry about money every day, they are poorer than themselves, and their ideas are naturally different, Liu Yi has no interest in becoming a nanny for the whole family, it is very tiring to be a big parent, Liu Yi just wants to live a mixed life.

Liu Yi has no interest in arguing with them, and several families don't know why, there are always some fights between each other, the eldest uncle is in the countryside, the second uncle is in the winery, the fourth uncle is in the society, and the fifth uncle works in the cement factory.

The lobby sister is also very good at reading, Liu Yi remembers that later she went to graduate school, the little cousin is also good, and she is also very good at reading, and then she gave up studying for graduate school, the two sisters are more honest, and they are very careful in what they do, several aunts are different, and everyone's personality is very different, but the family talks with a hint of utilitarianism, which makes Liu Yi feel more alive, but at the same time there is less affection, and he is actually a very bad character who dislikes the poor and loves the rich.

"The third family has the best time this year, the third sister (referring to Wu Jing) has become a leader, and the family has also opened a wholesale department, so she has made a lot of money this year. "The eldest aunt knows a lot about things at home, because there is a father who loves to show off at home, Liu Dahong especially likes to show off, he opposes his mother's business, but if he does a good job, he will also show off outside, he is a man with a strong sense of self-esteem, and the aunt's family is not very good, so it is normal to be jealous.

"Where to make any money, it's all hard work, people are very tired, and there is not much money, this leader is not easy to be, the mall is about to close down, even if you are in charge of hundreds of people, you have to pay wages every month, and you can't sleep when you chase it. Wu Jing pretended to be very depressed and said, only she knew how much money she had earned, and even Liu Dahong didn't know, the passbook and card were all in her mother's hands, and Liu Dahong had no choice.

"Ming'er and his second aunt didn't go to your store to pick up the goods, she said that there are many people who take the goods, and many people are waiting to get the goods. The second aunt added beside her.

"When was that, not now, business was a little better before the Chinese New Year, and there was no business after the New Year. Wu Jing explained, thinking that this second sister (Liu Yi's second aunt) has too big a mouth.

Everyone thinks differently, everyone knows very well what the other party wants, they just hope that their mother will be more generous when playing cards this year, lose a little more money, how can the mother be so shrewd and not know their tricks, of course, they also hope that the mother can give more money for the New Year, in fact, the more you go back, the more you suffer, the front takes more, and the back has to keep up, Liu Yi has always felt that this is a bad habit, because the situation of each family is different, it is easy to cause someone to be unaffordable, of course, if you are shameless enough, you can not lose money, with a line of sketches in the previous life, but if you want to face will not reach out, but there will be people who are shameless.

Liu Yi didn't pay attention to these boring things, listening to the family chatting without a word, the lunch was prepared very richly, the whole family started together, after the meal, first can not eat, first invite the ancestors to enjoy, and then the family can move the chopsticks, the position made by the ancestors is always opposite the position of the gate, and no one can sit in this position.

Revisiting these customs, Liu Yi doesn't have a special feeling, there are too few entertainment programs now, even KTV is rare, the price is ridiculously expensive, after lunch at noon, there is basically nothing to do, the family cleans up the table, the rest is to play mahjong, the family has a large number of people, you can make up two tables, the lobby brother is married, it is unlikely to follow Liu Yi and them out to play, little girls generally play at home and watch TV. Liu Yi and his second cousin Liu Xin couldn't find anything, fortunately, there was a game machine hall closer to the place, Liu Yi preferred to stay in a securities company, this street game was really boring, the second cousin liked this, there was no way Liu Yi had to follow him, the game hall was mixed, Liu Yi was actually quite annoying, in case of a fight, it was not good for anyone.

Find a nearby game hall, there are twenty machines in it, there are not so many people playing, the second cousin still has some money in his hand, bought more than two dollars of game currency, pulled Liu Yi on the machine to play, for the above picture Liu Yi is very unfamiliar, now the more popular is 97, Street Fighter, Dinosaur Century, King of Fighters, Police Era, Contra, Cai-Jin, etc., Liu Yi has no interest, followed Liu Xin to play Dinosaur Century, the technology of both is not very good, Liu Yi at most to play to the third level, Liu Xin's level is slightly higher than him, but Liu Yi knows all the plots inside, because in the previous life, the computer can adjust people to be invincible, until the clearance,The basic plot he remembers very clearly,It's already very difficult to get to the fifth level,The boss of each level behind is particularly hard to fight,In order to clear the customs,Liu Xin is constantly throwing coins,Two yuan of coins were quickly spent,Liu Yi went to the counter to buy ten yuan,Liu Yi believed that he could clear the customs with all special skills,So he and Liu Xin slammed down,Directly use money to clear the customs,This is the benefit of having money,Only the sky is dark,The head hurts,Plus the smell of the game hall is too bad,There are too many smokers,Liu Yi ran out first after clearing the customs。
