Chapter 70: Life is Beautiful
The world is big, but the place where we live is small.
Therefore, the chance encounter with the former classmates is not so abrupt......
Wang Yue?
When he first heard this name, Shen Qi didn't pay much attention to it, didn't think much about it, and now that she reminded him, Shen Qi thought about it carefully and found that this name seemed to be really familiar.
Looking through his mind again, Shen Qi successfully recalled the memories that had long been dusty.
As Wang Yue herself said, she is indeed Shen Qi's primary school classmate + middle school classmate.
When he was in school in Bincheng, Wang Yue and Han Yu at the party some time ago were his primary school classmates.
What is more coincidental is ...... These two girls live not far away, and they belong to the kind that goes to school together every day, leaves school together, and never leaves each other.
However, after entering junior high school, because of the class division, Shen Qi and Han Yu were assigned to one class, while Wang Yue was assigned to other classes.
It's no wonder that Shen Qi didn't recognize people at the first time, after all, after he transferred back to his hometown in Bincheng in his previous life, he never saw Wang Yue again, and the impression in his mind has long been blurred, for him, it was all a memory from seven or eight years ago, and it was normal not to remember.
Remembering who this was, Shen Qi smiled and said, "It turned out to be you, I didn't expect to meet you here." ”
"yes." Wang Yue is also very happy, for her, Shen Qi has just not seen each other for more than a year, and she has a deep impression of Shen Qi.
"I heard them say that you transferred back to your hometown, and I thought I wouldn't be able to see you in the future, but I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence."
Shen Qi nodded: "Yes, it's really a coincidence." ”
Grandma Wang Yue, who was on the side, listened to their conversation, understood what was going on, and asked her granddaughter: "Yueyue, I listen to you, this is your classmate?" ”
"yes, grandma." Wang Yue had a smile on her face, and she was in a good mood when she saw her old classmates: "This is my classmate in primary school, and we are in the same school in middle school, but he transferred last year." ”
"Oh." Grandma Wang Yue nodded, and then said, "Thanks to your classmate, otherwise I'm still in a hurry now." Young man, how about eating at our house at noon? I thank you. ”
"Grandma, don't be so troublesome." Shen Qi waved his hand again and again: "This is what I should do, a small thing." ”
"Xiaoqi, what's wrong?" At this moment, Shen Wanlin walked over.
He just watched his son put down his things and leave, he shouted twice and didn't reply, he wanted to follow, but he thought that Shen Qi would come back in a while, so he waited for him in the same place.
didn't wait in vain, after a while, Shen Qi really came back, but he didn't come to him, but came to the old lady opposite.
was worried that something would happen to Shen Qi, so after waiting for a while, seeing that Shen Qi hadn't come over yet, he walked over directly.
"Dad, it's okay." Shen Qi replied: "I picked up a wallet, it belongs to this grandmother." ”
Grandma Wang Yue interjected on the side: "That's it, you're his father, right?" I have to thank your son. ”
Knowing the reason for the matter, Shen Wanlin put his heart down and said with a hearty smile: "It's okay, this is what he should do." ”
Next, after a few more chats, Shen Qi and Wang Yue separated, followed their father to buy all the things they hadn't bought yet, and went home directly.
……
A week passed in a flash, and one of the most important days of the Chinese nation, the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, came quietly.
After getting up and washing up in the morning, Shen Qi began to get busy.
Beat the paste, paste the Spring Festival couplets, hang the stickers, and the word Fu.
This is what he has to do every Spring Festival since he was a child, and he is very handy to do it.
What "go out to see the joy" and "look up to see the joy" are found in a good position to paste, the word blessing is reversed, which means "blessing has arrived"
Near noon, he began to prepare lunch with Shen Wanlin again.
There are three members of their family, if they are ranked according to their cooking skills, it is that Shen Wanlin is greater than Shen Qi and Li Min.
So it's usually okay, Li Min cooks and stir-fries, but if it's a New Year's holiday or something, it's all Shen Wanlin as the chef.
A family of three couldn't eat too much, so they made six dishes, which means six or six Shun.
Four hot dishes, two cold dishes, and a pot of fragrant white rice, the family is very happy.
In the afternoon, the idle three people played poker directly.
It's "Wear the Rocket" that is played. Shen Qi doesn't know where this kind of play is popular, anyway, among the poker games he was exposed to when he was a child, the first one was golden hook fishing, and the second was wearing rockets.
The rules are very simple, two four and one A is the largest, called a rocket, and further down, the two kings are considered red flags, followed by four twos.
It's best to have fun as a family, so it's very comfortable to play with a hook and a fork.
And...... Since Shen Qi had already started to make money, they simply started to bring money.
Shen Qi is naturally full of fighting spirit and vows to win money, but he remembers the depression when he was a child, when he was still young, he just received the New Year's money, his father proposed to play poker to win money, and he agreed without hesitation with the idea of making a big profit.
The results were dismal...... He doesn't have any skills, unless his hand is red and the cards he draws crush others, otherwise even if it is a similar card, he will definitely not be able to play a veteran like Shen Wanlin.
The New Year's money that just entered his pocket was all won back before it was hot, which has always been regarded as a shame by him.
On the day of the New Year, Shen Qi did not prepare code words, he had the best fun, and started the journey with full fighting spirit.
Outcome......
It turns out that the phrase ginger is still old and spicy makes sense in anything......
With a five-yuan game, Shen Qi lost almost 100 yuan in one afternoon.
Except for the cards drawn too well, and the occasional flash of inspiration, he basically never won.
This undoubtedly made Shen Qi very frustrated, but after being depressed for a while, he became happy.
After he dropped out of school in his previous life, the family never played together like this again......
Losing money is a trivial matter, not to mention that losing money at home is like money in the left pocket going into the right pocket.
But this kind of happy and beautiful atmosphere is what Shen Qi has always wanted.
In his first life, the first thing he wants is for his family to be harmonious and happy, which is more important than anything else.
It was just five or six o'clock, and the sound of fireworks around me kept ringing out.
There were also during the day, but it wasn't as dense as it is now.
The fireworks shot into the sky like meteors, scattering in all directions, colorful and violet, and it looked beautiful.
Shen Qi's family mixed stuffing, noodles in the house, and began to make dumplings.
Their family does not have the habit of going out to eat Chinese New Year's Eve dinner for the New Year, generally in the thirtieth of the Chinese New Year's Eve, wrapping dumplings in their own home, the family looks at the Spring Festival Gala, eating dumplings and nagging, this is considered a Chinese New Year's Eve meal.
After the dumplings were wrapped, Shen Qi's mother Li Min cooked dumplings in the house, while Shen Qi and Shen Wanlin went out of the house to light firecrackers and set off fireworks in the courtyard.
Legend has it that in ancient times, firecrackers were used to scare the "New Year Beast", but now it is obviously not so much exquisite, and it is more used to celebrate the arrival of the new year.
After the dumplings are out of the pot, they are put on the table, chatting while eating, and the sketch cross talk of the Spring Festival Gala also caused a burst of laughter, accompanied by the countdown on TV, the time came to 0 o'clock.
New Year...... Arrival.

It's my birthday today, and I'm going home late, so that's it.
