Chapter 658: Meet in 1998
The Lunar New Year bell rings as scheduled.
In his previous life, Wu Tao felt that the world was incomparably beautiful and the future was bright in the song "Meet in 1998" performed by Faye Wong and Na Ying.
Because it was the year he was about to step into the workplace.
However, in this life, he has long exceeded the level and height of the year, only to find that the reality under such superficial prosperity is not so beautiful.
At least in the face of successive shocks to Asia's financial system and the lack of effective responses by governments, the future is shrouded in fog and uncertainty.
And the industries under his hands are also going through a critical period of transformation and development.
Although the future is promising, there are still uncertainties.
In addition, An Rong and Zhao Li are also about to cross the threshold of the college entrance examination and walk through the crossroads of life.
So this New Year, everyone is not in a relaxed mood.
However, Shi Qianxue, after adapting to the reality of spending the New Year alone in Beijiang, maintained a happy mood every day.
Because she found the taste of Taiwan Island, that is, bubble tea that has just appeared on the mainland.
This year, bubble tea began to rely on the supporters of the sweet party and sprung up on the land of China.
After eating the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner and watching the Spring Festival Gala, the night in Liyuan Village is getting darker, and the air is filled with the smell of fireworks.
The old man was old after all, and he went to bed early.
Even Zhang Huilan, who was making dumplings next to the TV, couldn't help but nod her head.
Wu Tao returned to the east house after setting off firecrackers in the vineyard and gently persuaded his wife to rest early.
After all, in the past few years, there has been no shortage of food at home. These dumplings and dumplings are too many and too little, and they are no longer important.
persuaded the old lady away, and only Shi Qianxue, who was not tired, was left in the east room, holding her mobile phone and editing text messages in and out.
After Wu Tao's suggestion, the mobile communication short message business led by Cheng Li finally broke out inexplicably in the first Lunar New Year.
All kinds of blessing text messages are overwhelming.
Even though most of them are forwards that are not nutritious, Shi Qianxue is still happy.
In contrast, Wu Tao is a little bearish. Only to the most important people, text back, then throw the phone aside, ignore it.
When Shi Qianxue raised her head, she moved her stiff fingers and wrists, only to find that she was the only one left in the huge house.
It's so late, it's impossible to go back to the city to rest.
Taking advantage of the cold moonlight, he stretched an infinitely beautiful waist, beckoned to the big black who shook his head and waved black, and then Shi Shiran walked into the east ear room.
Da Hei glanced thoughtfully at the ear room, and lay back on the grass nest, concentrating on the house.
Everything in the transept is still laid out like that.
Shi Qianxue touched the bed outside with ease, regardless of Wu Tao's deep sleep, she pulled the quilt and rolled over and fell asleep.
So Wu Tao, who had just fallen asleep, was woken up by freezing alive again.
Good men don't fight women.
Wu Tao sat up, shook his head, got up and got out of bed, entered the inner room, and squeezed into Xiao Jiang's bed.
Fortunately, the beds in the two rooms have been replaced with large beds, so you don't have to worry about not being able to squeeze in.
But this sleep, in fact, did not sleep for too long, and was woken up by the sound of firecrackers one after another.
This year's firecrackers are noticeably longer and thicker than in previous years. In the past, there was a hundred rings of earth red in every house, and it was already very good to listen to it and respond to the scene.
Now Wu Tao is sleeping on the bed, and after a rough listening, every family has 5,000 rings, and even 10,000 rings, countless.
This continuous explosion makes it difficult to fall asleep.
So he simply got up and got out of bed, put on a warm down jacket, found 100,000 firecrackers at home, and went out to take revenge.
100,000 rings, that's going to blow up for a while.
However, the old man in the family had already gotten up to do Tai Chi in the courtyard, so when Wu Tao lit 100,000 rings, there was no psychological burden at all.
It's just that after the ring, when they returned to the courtyard, Shi Qianxue and Xiao Jiang, one big and one small, rubbed their sleepy eyes and glared at him angrily.
Wu Tao felt a burst of happiness in his heart, and finally pulled back a game and avenged the robbery of the bed.
Zhang Huilan took out the first pot of dumplings from the kitchen, went straight to the hall, and put them on the offering table of the ancestors.
In front of the original offerings, after adding dumplings, it is time for the juniors to kowtow to the older generation.
Wu Ruichun finished Tai Chi, his body was clear and clear, and he sat down on the main seat, full of posture.
Wu Tao took his head, kowtowed to the old man, said some auspicious words, and did not carry any weight, and then won a red envelope.
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Jiang and Shi Qianxue didn't even wash their faces, so they kowtowed a few times and also took a red envelope.
It doesn't seem to be less than himself.
So repeatedly, give Wu Binghua and his family New Year's greetings, and take another one.
Two per person, which was fair. Zhang Huilan saw that the ceremony was over, so she beckoned: "Dad, let's eat dumplings and start eating." ”
The old man was about to get up.
Shi Qianxue suddenly interrupted: "Wait, cousin, I haven't had our boss's New Year's greetings yet!"
Speaking, he threw his hand at Wu Tao: "I wish the boss a grand exhibition in the new year, step by step, Wishing you prosperity, bring red envelopes!"
Uh, that's okay? Looking at the slender hand in front of him, Wu Tao was also stunned. However, the old man and his own Lao Tzu also urged with a natural attitude: "As the boss, be generous, give it!"
Fortunately, he had prepared some red envelopes for juniors, so that he would not be present on the spot.
After Shi Qianxue got it, she was full of pride. The envious Xiao Jiang drew a scoop on the spot with a gourd, and also slandered him.
As soon as the family finished the first breakfast of the new year, people in the family began to visit the family.
The neighbors, taking advantage of the location, were the first to arrive.
Lao Dai is alone, and he is among them. After greeting with the elders, Lao Dai took a look at the emptiness, came to Wu Tao, and looked at Siye from afar: "Before you brought back a message and said, this year's God is still not beautiful, and aquaculture has to be pressed?"
Wu Tao nodded, "You listen to me, you can't be wrong." Besides, what I said before, which time went wrong?"
Lao Dai took a puff of dry tobacco, raised his eyebrows and said: "I must listen to you, but this year there are many more aquaculture farmers in the village, and all of them are full of confidence to expand their business." I will tell them what you say, and they will not listen!"
“...... If this continues, sooner or later they will suffer a great loss!"
For this kind of thing, Wu Tao has already taken a peek at it, "Just bring the words to it, as for whether they listen or not, that's their business." ”
Lao Dai snorted, "Now that many families in the village have earned some money, they are so inflated that they can't find the north." Let them taste the hardships!
After speaking, Lao Dai stuffed a red envelope into Wu Tao.
Wu Tao was about to excuse himself, but Lao Dai glared at him, "What's the matter, when I become a big boss, I can't get into your eyes with this little New Year's money?"
"Then thank you Uncle Dai!"
