Chapter 69: Back to Hometown
The north wind is bone-chilling and whirring.
As far as the eye could see, it was all white, and a thick white coat was put on the roof and branches.
Li Cai's family of three returned to their hometown to prepare for the New Year.
In the past few years, because Li's father and Li's mother are busy with work, Li's father's Wancai Group is on the rise, and Li Cai's competition is also numerous, so he did not go back to his hometown for the New Year, but spent the New Year in Beijing.
In 10 years, the group has also stabilized, and Li Cai has no Go competitions, so he is naturally ready to return to his hometown for the New Year.
The current Dad Li is not the nerd he was a few years ago, he is already a successful person and a real estate tycoon with a net worth of billions.
Especially in 08, when the financial crisis broke out, Li Ma's angel investment invested in many companies with good prospects but lack of funds, such as JD.com, YY, Riot Company and other industries.
If nothing else, Li's father and Li Ma should be able to make it to this year's Forbes Huaguo rich list.
……
With a lot of Shangjing specialties, I returned to my hometown.
When I came to my uncle's house, it was different from the dilapidated and low mud house before, and now it is a three-story house.
The inside of the house is magnificently decorated, not at all like a house in a county town, but like a hotel in a big city, the decoration is very luxurious.
Of course, this is all thanks to Dad Li, because Grandpa and Grandma both live in Uncle's house, so Dad Li paid for Uncle to build a bigger house, so that Mom and Dad can live comfortably.
Originally, Dad Li planned to let his parents go to Beijing to enjoy happiness, but the old man was not used to the life of the big city, lived for a while, felt unaccustomed, and returned to his hometown.
Seeing Li Cai's family coming, the eldest aunt in the uncle's family, that is, Li's father's eldest sister, hurriedly said: "The fourth child is back, hurry, put a whip to celebrate." ”
Then I asked my aunt to set off firecrackers.
After a while, there was the sound of crackling firecrackers.
The aunt warmly greeted Li Cai's family and said to Li's father: "Fourth, why did you come back for the New Year this year, isn't the company busy?"
Dad Li said simply: "Everything in the company has been arranged, I haven't come back for the New Year for a few years, I always have to go home to see my parents!"
Li Cai greeted his aunt next to him: "Hello auntie, happy new year." I'm going to give you a New Year's greeting in advance. ”
When the aunt heard this, she grinned happily, looked at Li Cai and said, "I haven't seen you for a few years, but I've grown so tall, I'm only 12 years old, and I'm taller than your father." ”
Li Cai just smiled and didn't speak.
Li Cai doesn't like her aunt very much, and thinks she is very powerful, and she has all the advantages and disadvantages of rural women.
In his previous life, Li's father was the best at reading at home, graduated from a famous university, but because he had not yet made a career, he died early, and he was very indifferent to Li Cai's mother and son.
These are all aunts, who like to chew their tongues behind their backs, say bad things about Li's mother everywhere, and say to Li Cai's grandfather: "Li's father's death is because of Li's mother." ”
made Grandpa Li not want to see Li's mother, so Li's mother didn't want to go there, so she was angry with them, so she only let Li Cai go back for the New Year alone.
Even after Grandpa Li died, he said to Grandma Li: "Mom, Dad's distribution of property is not fair at all, the house or something, there is no one for me and the second sister, I have no opinion on the third brother and the younger brother, but the fourth brother He has already passed away, and he still owes gambling debts, but Dad paid it back at the beginning, why does the family property still have his share, and specially said to the fourth son, is my son not his grandson." ”
What the aunt didn't know was that Li Cai heard these words quietly, and since then, Li Cai has been very disgusted with the aunt, feeling that she is too villainous, and she has no evidence for what she says, all of which are nonsense, just for the money and the house, he maliciously slandered his parents.
And in this life, Li Cai's family is developed, and all kinds of enthusiasm are almost, Dad Li is a person who cares about family affection, and arranges a good job for his aunt's children, and his aunt's son, that is, Li Cai's cousin, all the tuition fees for college are all paid by Dad Li.
However, Li Cai can't say anything, he can't take the things in his previous life as an example, what kind of person is his aunt, she likes to chew the root of her tongue, and she has one thing behind her face, Li Cai can only pretend not to know, and she is respectful on the surface.
Although I am very disgusted with the eldest aunt, in the previous life, other people in the family were very good to Li Cai and cared about Li Cai, especially the second aunt, because there were no children, one daughter was raised by the eldest aunt, and the other son did not recognize them when he grew up, so in his previous life, he was very attentive to Li Cai, and treated him like a son.
Therefore, for the second aunt Li Cai, I sincerely thank and respect her.
Li Cai's family was the last to arrive, and the rest returned to their hometown early to prepare for the festival.
During the Chinese New Year, all the people in the family came back, there were a total of twenty-two people, and the third generation accounted for ten people, more than half.
Li Cai is the youngest in the family, except for a pair of children of his uncle.
Even if Dad Li invested a sum of money in Uncle's company, after making Uncle's company bigger and making Uncle busier, Uncle still gave birth to a son, but it was only a year late.
Looking at his cousin, who was only more than two years old, Li Cai felt that the family's patriarchal thinking was too serious, and he was really helpless!
Because there are many people, I have to prepare two tables of dishes, which is bitter for the eldest aunt, from the afternoon to the evening, one person makes two tables of dishes, it is simply tired to death.
Eating the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner in his hometown, although it is not as delicious as in the restaurant, Li Cai feels that the hometown cuisine is more evocative.
After dinner, everyone sat in the living room and chatted, talking about trivial things.
Slowly, Li got bored, so he went to the computer to play chess.
When I went to the study, I found my cousin playing a small game.
Seeing Li Cai coming in, cousin Li Yuhuan said, "Brother, help me get through this hurdle." ”
I had no choice but to sit down and help my cousin Li Yuhuan play the game.
Because he hadn't played a mini-game for a long time, Li was a little unfamiliar.
With his super nervous reaction, Li Cai quickly became proficient, and easily helped his cousin Li Yuhuan pass the test.
Seeing that he couldn't pass the game level, Li Cai passed it all at once, and hurriedly asked, "Brother, why are you so good, do you have any skills?"
Looking at his face of worship and looking at his cousin, Li Cai said calmly: "Brother is not playing a game, he is lonely." ”
Although he didn't understand what Li Cai was saying, his cousin Li Yuhuan felt that this sentence was very powerful, and he had a feeling of not knowing how powerful he was.
After seeing his cousin playing games on the computer, Li Cai had no choice but to wander around and look around.
When he came to a room and saw the four cousins of his aunt's family playing mahjong, Li Cai could only complain in his heart: "Raising so many daughters is just to get together a table to play mahjong!"
But Li Cai had nothing to do, so he had to watch them play mahjong and kill time.
