Chapter 175: Eating New Year's Dinner

Ding Yuejin saw that Ding Chang had been sitting there and didn't speak, so he asked, "Ding Chang, how are you now?" Working in the Industrial and Commercial Bureau is still smooth, right? ”

Ding Chang said: "It's okay, it's boring." ”

Ding Chang works as a driver in the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, there are no two cars in the bureau, they are all old jeeps, the car is not in good condition, and often breaks down, and the drivers in the bureau even have three Ding Chang, so Ding Chang often has nothing to do, and the most he does every day is to sit in the office and drink tea and read the newspaper, which is really boring for a young man in his early twenties.

Ding Yuejin said with a smile: "You can be content, I am tired and tired every day, my monthly salary is so little, and I often can't get it, you are good, you are so idle every day, and you can also guarantee the harvest in drought and flood, this is not good!" ”

Ding Chang scratched his head and said: "It's not that I'm not dissatisfied, if I'm so old as you, it's a good thing to sit every day, but now that I have nothing to do every day, I always feel uncomfortable." ”

Ding Yuanchao said: "Don't be too anxious, you may have to buy a Santana in the bureau this year, although it may not be your turn to drive it at that time, but you at least have a fixed jeep to drive." ”

Ding Chang nodded and said, "That's a good thing." ”

Ding Hongxing said: "Brother Ding Chang, if you are not satisfied with this position, do you want to change positions?" I have a friend who said I can help you change jobs. ”

Ding Changdao: "There is no need to change positions, I feel that any position in the bureau is quite idle, and in the afternoon, there is basically no one in the office, and I go to play mahjong, I might as well stay in the office and read the newspaper." ”

Ding Yuan said sternly: "Ding Chang, you can't be so unmotivated!" If Red Star really has friends who can help you change positions, that's a good thing, you can go to other positions to learn some business, anyway, you have already joined the party in the army, maybe you can be promoted when the time comes! ”

Ding Chang had a headache when he heard that his uncle began to preach, and he hurriedly said, "I know, uncle." But don't worry about changing positions, I've only been in the bureau for less than two months, and I'm in such a hurry to change positions, which gives a bad impression to the leader. ”

Ding Yuanchao also made sense when he heard Ding Chang's words, and he nodded solemnly: "What you said is also true, changing positions so quickly is easy to leave an impetuous impression on the leader, after all, it was Director Lu who accepted you exceptionally, and now it seems that he is not satisfied with other people's arrangements." Let's talk about that later! ”

While a few people were talking, Shen Shuzhen's meal was also ready, many time-consuming dishes had already been prepared last night, as long as a few fresh dishes were fried today, the dishes made yesterday could be steamed in a steamer during the stir-fry time.

Everyone worked together and brought the dishes to the table, and Ding Chang shouted: "Second aunt, make so many good dishes today!" Wait for me to count, fried croquettes, tofu meatballs, meat cakes, pearl meatballs, roast chicken, stir-fried shredded beef...... Vegetable moss, quinoa, there are sixteen dishes! ”

Ding Yuanchao's family was also very surprised by so many dishes, and Ding Yuanchao complained: "Yuejin, what are you doing with so many dishes for a New Year's dinner?" Your conditions are not good, the New Year's dinner is what it means! ”

Ding Yuejin smiled: "Big brother, don't you know it too?" Red Star made a lot of money by opening a store, and this year it made the New Year's dinner more sumptuous, and it didn't cost much. ”

Ding Yuanchao did know that Ding Hongxing's shop had a good business and made money, but he really didn't know how much, he asked curiously: "How much money did you make?" ”

Ding Yuejin said: "Last month, it seems that we earned 5,000, our family accounts for more than half of the shares, there are more than 2,000, I heard from Red Star that the business is better this month!" ”

Ding Yuanchao couldn't help but stumble: "Good girl, make so much money!" It's time to catch up with Shizhong. ”

Ding Shizhong also felt very surprised, although he could get a few thousand wages a month in Shanghai, but it was in Shanghai, and it was a foreign company, so it was normal for the salary to be higher, and it was not easy to earn 5,000 a month in a small business in Guicheng.

He asked Ding Hongxing what business he did, and Shen Shuzhen said: "Let's eat, everyone, the dishes are going to be cold, Hongxing goes out to set off firecrackers, and everyone serves it." ”

Ding Hongxing agreed, then picked up a set of prepared firecrackers and a box of matches, walked out of the door, lit the firecrackers, and then quickly ran into the house, closed the door, and heard a loud sound of firecrackers outside the door, Ding Chang also opened the Moutai wine at the dinner table, poured wine for the two uncles and Ding Shizhong and said: "It's time to eat!" ”

The family sat at the dinner table and ate this New Year's dinner.

Ding Shizhong took a fried croquette, put it in his mouth, chewed it, and after eating, he sighed: "It's still delicious in my hometown, in Shanghai, no matter how expensive the food is, I don't think it's as delicious as the food at home." Second aunt, the dishes you cook are so delicious! ”

Shen Shuzhen said with a smile: "Shizhong, eat more if it's delicious!" ”

Ding Shizhong nodded and smiled: "Well, you must have a good meal today!" ”

After saying that, he picked up another piece of bacon and chewed it.

Everyone laughed, Ding Shizhong is too good, and he works far away in Shanghai, so although he is a member of the Ding family, Ding Yuejin's family always feels a little far away from him, separated by a layer, but now he looks like this, but everyone has a sense of intimacy with him, and feels that this is the real Ding family.

Shen Shuzhen asked, "Shizhong, is there anyone to talk to?" Why didn't you bring a girl back for the New Year? ”

Ding Hongxing smiled secretly, this should be the trouble of every young person who works in a big city and does not fall in love, whenever they return to their hometown for the New Year, they will always be asked about this topic by relatives at home, although they are annoying, but they also have to face it.

In his previous life, why didn't Ding Hongxing encounter such troubles? Before he got married, after the divorce, every time he returned to Guicheng for the New Year, he was always asked personal questions by his uncle, aunt, uncle, and aunt.

Sure enough, as soon as this issue was mentioned, Ding Shizhong, who had always been calm, also had a trace of shame on his face, and he said expectantly: "Second aunt, not yet, I haven't talked about anyone yet." ”

Shen Shuzhen said: "Shizhong, you are twenty-five this year, right?" Why haven't you talked about someone yet? You're so good, it should be easy to find a good partner, right? ”

Ding Shizhong's parents also looked at him expectantly, which made Ding Shizhong stammer, not knowing how to answer.

It was Ding Hongxing who relieved him, and he said to Shen Shuzhen: "Mom, now white-collar workers in big cities get married late, and they all focus on their careers, many people get married in their thirties, and it's okay for Brother Shizhong to wait a few more years." ”

Only then did a few people nod their heads suspiciously, no longer ask this question, and began to eat and drink.

Ding Shizhong breathed a long sigh of relief and cast a grateful look at Ding Hongxing.
