Chapter 39: Happy New Year

Ali: That's enough for us to eat in the cafeteria!

Me: Hahaha, if only we had our own cooking!

Ali: This idea should be far away! Don't think about it so much, we buy these things that we love to eat.

Me: Okay, that's what we like.

In the evening, I made a phone call back from the phone booth at the entrance of the factory, and my mother said that the clothes fit very well and they liked them very much, and they bought fish and came back with fish, and they would buy some pork to eat during the Chinese New Year, and they would kill a chicken...... I wish my mom was telling me what I was saying!

But I know that this is not true, and they will not be willing to do it! My sister needs 500 yuan a month for her living expenses, but she still does not dare to eat and drink too much! Her tuberculosis is not yet completely cured, and she still has to take medicine; the monthly medicine fee is more than 100 yuan! My parents still dare not get sick, and even if they are sick, they dare not go to the hospital, for fear of spending a lot of money! If she is not feeling well, she has to carry it......

My sister said that it was snowing heavily, and the bamboo next to the house was pressed with thick snow, and she remembered that she shook the bamboo to make snow when she was playing a prank...... But I'm worried that with such a big snowfall, the family has not bought coal, and the fire is not enough to warm the family......

It's a sunny day on my side, but it's a little chilly when the wind blows......

The night of Chinese New Year's Eve is beautiful with fireworks in the sky.

Bring snacks to the canteen, watch the Spring Festival Gala (there is a TV in the lobby of the canteen), people who did not go home for the New Year gather in the canteen, not to be deserted, the countdown begins: 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1!

Me: Happy New Year, Ali!

Ali: Happy New Year!

Me: I hope we all have good health and make a lot of money in the new year!

Ali: Well, I hope to be able to do what we love in the new year!

Liu Ou: An An!

Me: Oh, did you just come?

Liu Ou: No, we were sitting here when the party started!

Me: Then you don't call me, I thought you weren't in the factory!

Liu Ou: Where can I go if I'm not in the factory?

Ali: Let's go, let's go back to the dormitory!

Liu Ou: You are also from Guangxi?

Ali: Guigang, I heard your accent that you are Guiping, right?

Liu Ou: Uh-huh! You're so good, you can hear your voice!

Ali: Hehe, my grandmother's house is Guiping's, so I can listen a little bit.

Liu Ou: Do you two live in the same dormitory?

Ali: Well, what floor do you live on? We can come to our dormitory at any time in 307, and there are only two of us in our dormitory.

Liu Ou: I live in 405, and there is a little girl in our dormitory who has not been back.

Me: You're all little girls, and there are any younger ones than you?

Liu Ou: No, she is older than me, but she talks and acts like a child.

Me: What can you dislike about it! Didn't she watch TV?

Liu Ou: No, she came to sleep with an uncomfortable stomach! Let's go, let's go up!

Me: Well, let's go!

Ali: We're here, would you like to go and sit in our dorm room for a while?

Liu Ou: No, it's too late to go back to bed, I'll play with you tomorrow!

Me: Well, okay, bye-bye!

Liu Ou: Good night!

Me: Well, good night!

Back to the dormitory.

Ali: Xiao An, this is from your department, is she very young?

Me: Well, I didn't come here for a long time, and I was in the same shift before, and I was in the same shift for a few days. She said she was as old as me, a few months older than me, and she looked very small! She was very funny and had a lot of fun talking.

Ali: Oh, it looks like it's a lot younger than you.

Me: She's petite!

Ali: Do you have anyone you like?

Me: Why do you suddenly ask that?

Ali: No, I just wanted to discuss with you, how to determine if someone likes you?

Me: Do you feel like someone likes you? Who, your department?

Ali: yes, but I'm not sure, I just feel good about him.

Me: If he likes it, he should have confessed to you!

Ali: No, so I'm a little annoyed.

Me: I don't know what to do, so if I did, I'd ask him directly.

Ali: Just ask no!

Me: There's nothing wrong with that, I think liking should be a happy thing, if you can't just ask to guess, how uncomfortable it is!

Ali: Yes, but I'll wait!

Me: You like him, don't you?

Ali: A little bit!

Me: Hehe, it's so good, it's good to have someone you like!

Ali: You don't have one?

Me: I don't think so! I only have people to admire, celebrities! Do I like celebrities?

Ali: It's not realistic, I'm talking about reality, you can live together, eat, sleep, go shopping, have fun together, have fun together.

Me: No, I think it's good to be alone!

Ali: You haven't met someone you like yet!

Me: Maybe!

Ali: I want to share a bed with you.

I quickly moved inside to make room for space.

Me: Okay, come on!

I didn't feel awkward to sleep with Ali, and she would put her feet on me, but I slept soundly, and I woke up the next day to a knock on the door.

In the dimness, I heard that my name was called, as if it was Liu Ou.

Me: It's coming, it's coming, don't knock!

Got up and opened the door past Ali; as soon as the door was opened, Liu Ou said:

Liu Ou: On the first day of the new year, why are you still sleeping lazy! The sun is drying your butts!

Me: What time is it? Why are you up? You don't go to work, you don't have anything to do! What are you going to do if you don't sleep?

Liu Ou: It's past 10 o'clock, it's not early! Let's go out and take a walk around! Come in!

She also beckoned the person at the door to come in, only to see someone standing behind her.

Me: Pretty girl, come in!

Liu Ou: This is the little girl in our bedroom, and I mentioned it to you.

Me: Oh oh, hello!

Little Sister: She wants to call me Little Sister, I'm older than her!

Me: Oh, Xiaofan, you can sit casually first, Ali is up!

He beckoned them in, turned around and told Ali to get up.

Ali: Hmm!

Ali stretched out on the bed while I went to wash.

We got it done, had a casual snack and went out, and the supermarkets and restaurants outside were closed for the Chinese New Year. We had to walk along the road to Truth, Kindness and Beauty, and we walked for a long time, as if we had come to a village, there were houses, there was smoke, there was a stream, there were rows of weeping willows reflected in the stream, we walked along the stream, and we saw beans planted, and Ali said that there were peanuts, but I had never seen peanuts.

Me: When we came from home, we passed through Guangxi, and I saw a lot of bananas and sugar cane.

Ali: I grow it at home, so I have the opportunity to eat it at my house!

Me: Okay, I'll go when you get married!

Liu Ou: When we get married, I don't know if we're still here!

Me: I'm going anywhere, all over the world!

Xiao Fan: Xiao An, aren't you from Guangxi?

Me: Well, no! But it's not far from Guangxi!

Xiao Fan: I heard you speak Cantonese and thought you and Ali were fellow countrymen!

Ali: I'm the same guy as you guys, haha!

Me: Hehe, my accent is not heavy! I'm from Guizhou.

Xiaofan: I can't hear it at all!

Liu Ou: An An, you can find a boyfriend in Guangxi!

Me: Why?

Liu Ou: I heard that you don't grow rice there, so you can eat rice every day when you marry in Guangxi!

The three of us looked at each other, a little crying and laughing.

Me: I thought what she was going to say was that if you find someone from Guangxi to marry Guangxi, you can be very close to you, but I didn't expect it to be for rice......

Ali: Then she can also marry to the Northeast! There is also rice in the Northeast! There is rice in many places in China!

Liu Ou: No, I don't know!

Me: Haha, in fact, I don't have any plants in my house, but I will try to find one in Guangxi, which is close to you!

Several of us laughed, leaving Liu Ou alone a little blindfolded......

Liu Ou: What are you laughing at?

Xiaofan: It's nothing, it's not laughing at you anyway.

Liu Ou: Why are you laughing at me?

Ali: I didn't laugh at you, I really didn't laugh at you!

Liu Ou: No, An An also laughs, how can she laugh at herself.

Xiaofan: Hey, you see peas, have you ever eaten raw peas?

Me: Yes!

Ali: Yes, you can see that there are still vegetables, they look good!

A few of us quickly diverted the topic.

Me: We call this dish chicken nest dish, what about you?

Ali: Pretty much, we call it chicken hair cabbage because its leaves grow and crumble like chicken feathers.

Me: It's pretty much the same, we're talking about the leaves crumbling like chickens have just come out of the coop.

Xiaofan: We also call it chicken hairy vegetables over there.

Me: Haha, maybe we all had the same childhood!

"When we were kids, we would jump bands and catch stones...... "Before I could finish speaking, the three of them said in unison:

"So do we!"

We each laughed.

We must have been walking for a long time, and the sun is about to set The stream in the distance sparkles in the sunlight, and the weeping willows look gentle in the sunset.

We can't help but sigh: so beautiful!

When we returned to the factory, we were all hungry, so we hurried to eat snacks to replenish our energy. Then I slept for a few days, and I basically didn't go out much. Ali and I don't like the hustle and bustle so much that we don't even go to the park, and others think we're boring, just the two of us enjoying it.

Even after the first six years, the supermarket at the factory gate has returned to its previous bustle, and we have decided to develop the habit of going to bed early and waking up early every day, just like going to work.

Ali: Ann: Do you know how to ride a bike?

Me: No, what's wrong?

Ali: I have a colleague in my department who has a bicycle that he can lend me to ride, and he wants us to ride it together!

Me: Unfortunately I don't, I haven't touched a bike.

Ali: I'm fine, I used to ride my bicycle to school when I was studying, so I won't borrow it.

Me: No, you can ride, I see you ride.

Ali: yes, I can take you, and then I'll take you for a ride.
