Chapter 0097 Chinese New Year's Eve Chinese New Year's Eve
For this year's Chinese New Year's Eve Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, Zhao Weidong specially invited his godfather's family of three to come to the house for Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, for the original table was relatively small and could not sit more than a dozen people, Zhao Weidong asked Sister Yu to prepare a large round dining table that can sit fifteen people.
In order to prepare better, Sister Yu gave the carefully prepared Chinese New Year's Eve dinner menu to Zhu Lingjun two days in advance, let her see if it was okay, Zhu Lingjun took the menu and looked at it carefully, she felt that she was not looking for the wrong housekeeper, this menu is still very in line with her heart, all are Chinese dishes, not only take care of Zhao Weidong's dietary preferences, but also take into account everyone's dietary preferences.
It is a very suitable Chinese New Year's Eve dinner menu: exquisite 10 cold dishes, chicken shredded shark fin sea cucumber soup, Ao Long Er, silver scallops, Tufucen stewed money turtle, chestnut stewed chicken, heaven and earth race bear paw, Cantonese sea bass, steamed sea crab, Cantonese American red fish, local chicken pot, spicy beef he, bamboo fungus matsutake crab claws, stone yu stir-fried lobster balls, tuna belly with octopus, crockpot palm dragon, boiled prawns, sea cucumber stuffed with foie gras, ice five-color stewed snow swallow, seafood abalone udon noodles, fruit cup (one per person).
And the amount is very sufficient, Di Lingjun knows that she herself has increased her food since she started practicing, almost double that before practicing, and now she knows that Ye Qianru has practiced, Alice has also practiced, and now there are four people in the family practicing, and everyone's food has doubled.
At more than three o'clock in the afternoon of Chinese New Year's Eve, Ye Minghui took his godmother and Ye Xiaofang to the house, Ye Xiaofang was still holding a large bouquet of flowers in his hand, Zhao Weidong took Ye Qianru, Zhu Lingjun, and Alice to meet outside the gate, Zhao Weidong said:
"Godfather, godmother, and Sister Xiaofang, welcome to the three of you. Come, come, come, come to the living room and sit. β
Seeing Zhao Weidong so enthusiastically take the family to greet him outside the gate, he was very happy to respect his family, he knew that the godson in front of him was the real richest man in the world, he was not arrogant because of his success, he was still so modest and low-key, he was pleased as an elder, Ye Minghui was very happy and said:
"Weidong, your home is decorated with the atmosphere of our traditional Spring Festival, just now Xiaofang took my hand and said: 'Blessing is down, blessing is down.' I replied to her, 'Isn't this your brother's family blessing?' ββ
"Godfather, Sister Xiaofang, thank you for your auspicious words."
Ye Xiaofang handed the flower in her hand to Zhao Weidong, and said anxiously:
"Weidong, what thank you, I mean your family's blessing has fallen."
Zhao Weidong handed the bouquet in his hand to Ye Qianru and said:
"Sister Xiaofang, thank you for the flowers, you are right, it is the blessing of our family. I just want to thank you. β
"Weidong, I mean the blessing word at the gate of your house is down."
"Yes, Sister Xiaofang, the word blessing is deliberately pasted upside down, that is, after people see it, the people who see it will say: The blessing of the family has fallen, and the New Year is over, even passers-by will say, this family is blessed, do you think it is a good auspicious word?"
"Oh, that's what it means, I thought that the people in your family were so careless in how to do things, and such a big blessing word would be pasted down, it turned out that it was deliberately pasted down." Ye Xiaofang suddenly realized.
Ye Minghui looked at the whole villa, which was arranged according to the traditional Spring Festival customs and had a strong Spring Festival atmosphere, and sighed:
"Now the children who grew up in Hong Kong, not many people are interested in the traditional Spring Festival, most of them have been accustomed to 'Christmas', 'Carnival' and other Western festivals, most of them know very little about the customs of the Spring Festival, and a lot of basic knowledge about traditional festivals do not know, which is very undesirable."
"Dad, you're talking about me, I like Christmas, I don't like the Spring Festival, the Spring Festival is a very backward thing, it's a festival that only your older generation will like, we young people don't like it, Weidong, you say yes."
Ye Xiaofang said unconvinced, she knew that her father valued Zhao Weidong very much, and his words must be very convincing to her father, so she pulled Zhao Weidong out to say something, as long as Zhao Weidong supported her, her father had nothing to say.
Zhao Weidong was particularly touched after hearing this, this is the serious consequences of long-term colonial rule, because nearly a hundred years of British colonial rule, the implementation of British ideological values, from the root of the change of several generations, so adhere to the tradition of overseas Chinese There are a lot less, most of the young people have basically westernized, thinking of this Zhao Weidong said:
"Sister Xiaofang, I don't agree with you, I like the Spring Festival, you don't see how well prepared I am when the Spring Festival comes, and how strong the Spring Festival atmosphere of the whole family is. The most important thing is that I am Chinese, and the most important festival and the biggest festival in my heart is the Spring Festival, which has been engraved into my bones.
Every country has its own traditional festivals, has its own cultural and historical heritage, but also to cultivate the patriotism of the people, I estimate that the first thing that young people who talk about patriotism may be the United Kingdom, no matter where we Chinese live in the world, we will always have the blood of the Chinese nation in our veins, which can never be changed. β
Ye Minghui said with deep sympathy:
"Yes, Wei Dong said well, we are Chinese, China's tradition must not be lost, we must keep the roots."
Zhao Weidong went on to say:
"You should all know that Taiwan has been occupied by Yuben for 47 years, and in these 47 years, at least two generations have been born. In order to truly integrate the island of Taiwan into the territory of Taiwan, he has adopted a series of very powerful policies, the most powerful of which is that Taiwanese people are not allowed to speak Chinese, and the Chinese language is designated as Taiwan's mother tongue and enslaved and educated.
Therefore, the two generations of Taiwanese youths basically could not speak Chinese, could not write Chinese characters, admired the culture of the Japanese people, studied in the Japanese government and worked in the Taiwan regime and Taiwan-funded enterprises, and even a considerable number of Taiwan youths joined the Chinese army, participated in the Chinese army's war of aggression against China and the Pacific War, and became accomplices of the Japanese army, helping the Japanese to kill their own compatriots. β
"Brother Weidong, is there really such a thing?"
Ye Xiaofang asked a little disbelievingly.
"What I said is indeed true, so if anyone forgets his motherland, you may become a person who harms the motherland and compatriots, and the Japanese army in Taiwan is no worse than the Japanese army in the Chinese battlefield in terms of brutality against the Chinese military and civilians."
"It seems that our young generations are indeed subtly transformed, and many of our young people have become less affectionate towards their motherland, but have feelings for the UK, usually I feel that I prefer to speak English, not very much Chinese, if it wasn't for my father's request to speak Chinese at home, I may not speak it anymore.
I am Chinese, I must not forget my roots, I was wrong before, I must love my motherland in the future, learn more about the history and culture of the motherland. β
After Ye Xiaofang deeply reflected on herself, she found that she did have a problem, unconsciously she slowly forgot the motherland, no feelings for the motherland, after 47 years of Japanese rule and enslavement, Taiwanese youth actually participated in the Japanese invaders to massacre their compatriots The terrible history shocked Ye Xiaofang, she began to introspect, she began to reflect, she began to reflect, she is Chinese, the blood of the Chinese nation flows in her veins, how can she forget her motherland, she decided to change her past.
Both Ye Minghui and Zhao Weidong were very happy to see Ye Xiaofang's change of thinking, as long as every young person in Hong Kong can reflect on it, they will definitely realize that the roots of the Chinese will always be in their motherland.
Ye Minghui found that Zhao Weidong's family had a stunning Western beauty, so he asked Zhao Weidong:
"Weidong, why do you have an extra Western beauty in your family?"
"Godfather, I'm sorry, we forgot about this just now because of Sister Xiaofang's interruption. Come, let me introduce you, this is Miss Alice from New York, USA, and she is my full-time secretary. Miss Alice, let me introduce you to you, this is my godfather, Mr. Ye Minghui, and also the uncle of my fiancΓ©e Ye Qianru, these two are godmother and sister Xiaofang. β
Alice walked generously to Zhao Weidong, bowed slightly to Ye Minghui, and said in very difficult Chinese:
"Please take care of Mr. Ye Minghui."
Ye Minghui took a serious look at Alice, although he traveled from south to north, often ran around the world, and saw a lot of Western beauties, but there has never been a Miss Alice in front of him, they are too much worse than Alice, I didn't expect Westerners to have such beautiful beauties, and it makes people feel a little dazzling.
It is true that Alice has also changed a lot after being with Zhao Weidong, under the nourishment of love, the key is to open up the two veins of Ren and Du to bring about an extreme improvement in biological functions, she is eighteen years old, her body is in the late stage of puberty, and the practice has a great effect, her figure is better, her skin is more beautiful, and her skin is white, but now it has become delicate, and moist, watery, so Ye Minghui will have a dazzling feeling of beauty.
Zhao Weidong can take her home to celebrate the New Year together, he must have become his family, this kid is really a blessing, of course, only such a beautiful beauty is worthy of his godson, he is very happy to say:
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, everyone sits down and says, you're welcome, it's all your own family, just order."
Zhao Weidong also laughed after hearing Ye Minghui's words and said:
"Godfather is right, we are all a family, don't be too restrained, everyone is casual."
"Weidong, who is Miss Alice's father?"
"Godfather, that's right, I opened an investment bank in the United States, her father is a well-known financial investor, we hired him as the president of the investment bank, her father recommended her to be the chairman's full-time secretary, I accepted his recommendation, and she became my full-time secretary."
"Oh, I see."
Ye Xiaofang saw that Zhao Weidong was surrounded by three beauties, and a Western beauty, she was unbalanced, and secretly scolded this big pervert in her heart, she was not satisfied with such a beautiful wife as Ye Qianru, and now she also found a foreign woman, she happened to see Zhao Weidong looking over, so she glared at him fiercely to vent her dissatisfaction.
Zhao Weidong glared at Ye Xiaofang, feeling a little inexplicable, why is she glaring at me, didn't she support her to like Christmas, she was unhappy? It doesn't look like it, he saw the elated Alice, he immediately knew the reason why Ye Xiaofang was glaring at him, he smiled bitterly, thinking to himself What the hell is going on with this girl, she has an extra girlfriend, what does it matter to her, is it necessary? He really couldn't figure it out.
Everyone is chatting happily, time has passed unconsciously, soon it is time to eat Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, today is the New Year, everyone is very open, the dishes are also very rich and delicious, everyone gathered together to spend our traditional Chinese festival Spring Festival, Zhao Weidong paid special attention to controlling the rhythm and atmosphere, both trying to make everyone drink enough, but also pay attention to not letting everyone get drunk.
