Chapter 72: Chinese New Year (I)
"Li Zhu, let's get off work early today." Zheng Chen signed the text and handed it to the side, Li Ran said.
"Huh?" Li Ran, who took over the text, obviously felt a little incredible, this is still the Zheng president she knew, in fact, she has only been Zheng Chen's assistant for half a year, and she is mainly responsible for the trade logistics with Zhou's side, because she was in the trading company before, so she was dug by Zheng Chen's heavy money, and she hesitated in the face of such a young foreign girl, but Zheng Chen's proposed salary made her nod, just as Zheng Chen was a child of a rich family playing tickets, but gradually she found out that she was wrong, In the past six months, she has rarely seen Zheng Chen get off work on time, let alone their employees, Zheng Chen is strict at work, so when Zheng Chen said this, she was really stunned.
"Why, if you don't want to have such an expression, I'll be very sad." Seeing Li Ran so much, Zheng Chen couldn't help but replace that Yan sΓΉ's face: "Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, everyone go home early for reunion." β
Seeing Zheng Chen's playful appearance for the first time made Li Ran's eyes light up, but when he heard her words, he couldn't help but dim, although he was very busy for most of the year, he was exactly what he longed for, if it was still home
"Li Zhu, Li Zhu? Okay, I'm off work too" Zheng Chen saw that Li Ran was still stunned and thought that she might not set an example as the general manager, otherwise she was really afraid that those employees would not dare to go back, but also, after all, it was only 1 o'clock in the afternoon and just finished the lunch break.
"Well, okay, then I'll go out and inform everyone." Li Ran didn't say anything when he saw that Zheng Chen had packed up his things, and he would go back to his parents' house when he bought some things later, as for Xiao Xuyang.
"Well, Li Zhu, happy new year, be happy, I hope we will make the company bigger and stronger together next year." Zheng Chen didn't forget to smile and said to Li Ran, who was already going out.
"Mr. Zheng also wishes you a happy new year." Li Ran still replied lightly, if it weren't for the curvature of the corners of her mouth, Zheng Chen would really feel that she was boring herself. Zheng Chen said that he was also very helpless about this cold woman, thinking that she Zheng Chen was a fiery character, and Li Ran was just the opposite, but fortunately, they mainly got along at work, and her formula style and strong execution were exactly what they needed, maybe after the beginning of the year, the company would slowly get on the track and could communicate with her, Zheng Chen thought about stepping up the movements in his hands, and estimated that at this time, Chengyu and the two mothers had already returned to the old house, so she would have to hurry back to get back the gift later. Otherwise, his grandfather would have to talk endlessly, and Chengyu would also talk endlessly, thinking of this, Zheng Chen's helpless face showed a deep smile.
And Berlin and others on the other side also received Dunriyi, to say that this Dunriyi saw these people for a while still wondered, today is not Chinese New Year's Eve, how can they still pick themselves up, they also deliberately chose to come back today, although there are only two people with Ruiqian, but the New Year is still in the country or something is more old, not to mention that Ruiqian has not yet had a real Chinese New Year.
"I asked you to pick me up during the New Year, Zihan is really bothering you" Deng Liyi sat in the back seat with Ruiqian and Berlin in his arms, and at this moment because of the long journey, Ruiqian was still drowsy.
"It's okay, there's nothing for us to do when we go home anyway" Zhou Zihan scratched his nose and said, this was dragged up by Aunt Tongtong early this morning to buy things everywhere, although she was very mindful of why she had to call thousands of miles to pick her up by herself and let Aunt Yue sleep at home! You have to know where the place is not crowded today, but this aunt has to take herself to the supermarket, this drill Zhou Zihan directly suffered two elbows on his face and was stepped on I don't know how many feet, thinking that this is really my aunt, this is not at noon, I received a call from Berlin and ran out without talking about any conditions.
"Sister Yi, Sister Yi's phone" I saw Berlin handing her the phone and signaling her to answer, just now when Deng Liyi and Zhou Zihan were greetings, she had already dialed her grandfather's phone, so why don't you hurry up and ask someone to answer it.
Dunriy was a little surprised that someone would call Berlin and let him answer it, but he still took the phone and politely said, "Hey, hello." β
"Oh, Xiao Deng, I'm your teacher Bai, don't listen to Lin Lin, this kid said that you are back, thinking that you don't have any relatives here, let's go back to our house for the New Year, let's be lively and lively together, and everyone should say that they are all familiar with each other, your wife doesn't need to be introduced to the dean of your department, and my daughter, just Lin Lin, you also want to come over, hahaha" The father Bai on the other side of the phone was obviously in a good mood.
"I'm sorry about this, okay with that, then I'll bother you." Deng Liyi was deeply surprised by Principal Bai's call, but when he saw the person with a bright smile in front of him, he felt that it was reasonable.
"Berlin!!" Zhou Boyan sat in the co-pilot and suddenly shouted, seeing Berlin turn her head to look at her, she didn't look at her, just said lightly: "Buy me an ice cream." β
"Ah, this will?" Berlin was a little inexplicable, but after thinking about it, he said: "Yan Yan, you can't eat cold food these days, I'll go home and make you chocolate to drink." β
Zhou Boyan, who was originally unreasonable because Berlin was too enthusiastic to look at Deng Liyi, instantly felt a little better when he heard Berlin's words, "Okay." "You have a conscience and haven't forgotten me.
Zhou Boyan is in Berlin, but Zhou Zihan, who was driving, blew up and only heard "Sister Deng is still there!" β
"Huh? What's wrong, Zihan? But apparently, Deng Liyi didn't notice anything wrong and asked, but seeing this posture and thinking about the phone call just now, he spoke again: "Zihan, if it's convenient, can you take me to the supermarket, this is the first time to come to the door, it's not easy to come empty-handed." β
"No, no, Sister Yi doesn't need it." Berlin immediately refused.
"Lin Lin, listen to me, and Yan Yan is not thirsty, I'll buy her something to drink later, and I'll treat her to whatever she wants." Deng Liyi turned to Zhou Boyan and said, how can you listen to Berlin in this matter, not to mention the two leaders who went, not to mention the seniors plus the current relationship between himself and Berlin, and it is the first time to come to the door, how can you not miss this courtesy.
"Well, thank you, Sister Yi." Without waiting for Berlin to continue to object, Zhou Boyan turned to Deng Riyi with a smile on his face at this moment.
And Zhou Zihan, who looked at Zhou Boyan's appearance, was unexpectedly in a better mood, well, she really didn't mind a little in her heart.
A group of five people drove directly to the nearest large supermarket from home, looking at the appearance of going in and out at the door of the supermarket, Zhou Zihan was really timid, she wanted to raise her hand to say that she didn't want to go in, but God heard her expectation, and only heard Deng Liyi say: "There are so many people inside, we don't want to go in, and Rui Qian is still asleep, and he has to leave someone to watch." β
As soon as Zhou Zihan heard this, he was intercepted by Berlin as soon as he wanted to speak, "Then Yan Yan stays, Zihan, let's go in with Sister Yi, so you are willing to squeeze it." β
Seeing the smile on Berlin's face, Zhou Zihan was angry, it was really a bad thing to meet Berlin, she Berlin was definitely the biggest nemesis in her life.
Finally, when the three of them bravely squeezed out of the supermarket, Berlin and Dunriy looked at each other and smiled, only Zhou Zihan kept combing her hair, she was still at the beginning to be pushed a few times and stepped on a few times, but then she had no support at all, and directly followed the flow of people and did not know where to squeeze, she swore that she would never come out to buy anything on Chinese New Year's Eve again.
When watching Zhou Zihan help carry things upstairs, Berlin appropriately explained, "Zihan will celebrate the New Year with us this year." β
The moment Dunriyi nodded, everyone had already arrived at the door, and looking at Dunriyi's slightly nervous appearance, Berlin couldn't help but reach out and shake it.
"Okay, no" Zhou Zihan looked down at the hands of the two of them, and didn't let go until Deng Liyi signaled that it was okay.
Because it is an old-fashioned community, the sound insulation is not very good, and the laughter inside can already be heard, Deng Liyi should have thought that there may be a lot of people, and saw that Zhou Zihan had already knocked on the door, only to see a woman with curly hair and fashionable clothes, but there was still a little white on her face, and the door was opened, followed by a laugh in the house.
"Happy New Year to Mommy (Auntie, Yueyue Mom)." I saw the three of them smiling, and they were very well-behaved and said to the woman who came to open the door.
"Oh, what a good boy, come to the red envelope" Wang Xinyue happily distributed the red envelope, you know, today she is the first to send a red envelope, and when she found out that there was a Deng Liyi, she couldn't help but be stunned, but then she thought of Bai's father's words and immediately said: "This is Xiao Deng, teacher, come in." He also stuffed a red envelope into Dunriyi's hand.
"Well, that's not good." Deng Liyi didn't know what to call Wang Xinyue, but he was holding this red envelope by himself.
Seeing that people were embarrassed, and Wang Xinyue saw Rui Qian, who was blocked by a bunch of gift bags, he immediately said, "This is your son, then it should be used as New Year's money for children, hello children, come, call Auntie~"
When the three people who were hanging next to them just wanted to say that it was time for Auntie to call Grandma, they only heard another crisp voice and remembered, "What is it called Auntie, call it Sister, oops, look at this little guy is really handsome." β
Stinky and shameless, this is the unanimous evaluation of Zhou Tongtong by the three of them, although her maintenance is really no different from that of thirty years old, but after all, she is really embarrassed to be called.
"Hello Editor-in-Chief Zhou, I'm sorry to disturb." Deng Liyi saw that it was his part-time editor-in-chief, and hurriedly said hello.
"Teacher Deng, we've been waiting for you for a long time, come in, what is Yan Yan eating, I'll eat and snack later." Zhou Tongtong shouted sharply.
"Mommy, I didn't eat breakfast." Zhou Boyan pouted.
"What are you doing outside, come in and work!!" I only heard a familiar and hearty voice, and I didn't need to be reminded that Deng Liyi already knew that this was her dean, Bai Mu.
I saw that everyone was crowded in the room all of a sudden, which made Deng Liyi not realize that Zhou Boyan was the daughter of Editor-in-Chief Zhou, and she was already standing in the middle of the room, and the good guy's originally spacious room was suddenly crowded into a dozen people, and everyone was still around the table making dumplings.
And the originally lively crowd paused for a while after seeing Deng Liyi, Deng Liyi did not have stage fright for this situation, and took Rui Qian with one hand and walked towards Bai's father and Bai Mu with the other hand, "School teacher, teacher, this is my little heart, please accept it, this is my son, Rui Qian, call grandparents quickly." β
"Hello grandparents." Rui Qian was still a little timid to see so many people at once.
"Oh, it's really good, grandma's hands are all flour, I'll hug you later, Xiao Deng, don't be restrained when you get home, just treat it as your own home, the old man doesn't pour tea for Xiao Deng, so no eyesight." Bai Mu happily said to Deng Liyi, but did not forget to yell at Bai Father.
"Teacher, no need, I'll come by myself, I'll come by myself" As soon as Dunriyi heard this, he immediately handed the things in his hand to Berlin to pick up Father Bai's teacup.
"Okay, then Xiao Ruiqian, come to grandpa, do you like to play chess, grandpa will take you to play." Bai's father immediately grabbed Rui Qian and went aside, since there were so many women in the family, except for Yan Qi to accompany him from time to time, there is really no one, Tongtong wants to play with herself, but she doesn't mention it.
"Mommy, Mommy (Aunt Bai, Aunt Shen)" watched the three of them call again towards the table, and now Dunriyi was dizzy, which one is which.
Seeing Deng Liyi's embarrassment, Berlin immediately smiled and said, "Sister Yi, let me introduce you, this is my mother," she pointed to the cypress road that was skillfully rolling the skin.
"Hello Editor-in-Chief." Kashiwagi Deng Riyi naturally knows and cooks porridge for himself.
"It's my mommy." Berlin continued to point to Shen Yanqi next to the cypress and introduced.
Deng Liyi's heart jumped, although she had already learned about her family structure from Berlin, but she might as well be a little shocked when she saw the real person, especially the temperament of Shen Yanqi in front of her, even if she was wearing an apron at the moment, she still couldn't resist the temperament of a strong woman, not to mention that she was still very good, and then looked at the cypress next to her and couldn't help it
"Teacher Deng, my family has taken care of you." Shen Yanqi took the tissue on the side and wiped her hands, and walked over.
As soon as Shen Yanqi's words came out, she also interrupted Deng Liyi's assumption of the matching degree between the two in a timely manner, and couldn't help but secretly stuck out her tongue, which was too rude, but when she looked at Shen Yanqi closely, she couldn't help but be surprised, "You, you are Lin Lin's mommy." She remembered that it was Shen Yanqi who came to pick up Berlin at that time.
"Eh, Sister Yi" Berlin wondered a little how Deng Riyi could come up with this sentence, this mommy had already introduced herself, why did Sister Yi still ask, was she too nervous.
On the contrary, Shen Yanqi smiled knowingly and said, "Yes, I am Lin Lin's mommy, you are Sister Yi who Lin Lin talked about all day and night when he was a child, and refused to eat." In fact, Shen Yanqi also thought of Deng Liyi when she called Sister Yi in Berlin, looking at Deng Liyi in front of her, who still looked gentle and quiet although she had a child, Shen Yanqi couldn't help but secretly affirm in her heart, thinking that this Teacher Deng is also a tough person.
