Chapter Forty-Eight: Farewell to the Old Year Tonight
He Bangwei recently accompanied his sister to take a good walk around Luzhou City.
He also has a lot of experience in getting along with his sister.
After shopping for several days in a row and swiping her with the bank card given by He's father, the two brothers and sisters finally stopped their pace due to the weather.
It's snowing.
The snow in Luzhou was not heavy before the year, but it still brought more chill.
He Wanxi and her brother nested at home, blowing a warm air conditioner and reluctant to go out again.
In the past few days, she has also seen her brother's craftsmanship - the noodles, although according to her brother, it was because he used to use what "heating packets" to make noodles, so it caused the noodles to be undelicious after using the cooking pot, but He Wanxi endured it a few times and didn't let him cook anymore at all.
He Bangwei was a little depressed about his noodle and even kitchen career.
But soon his sullenness turned into these relatives who constantly appeared in front of him.
His first Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was with Dad He and his sister to the hotel to eat with relatives in the extended family.
Some big families in Luzhou like to book a large private room in the hotel during the Chinese New Year's Eve and have a lively Chinese New Year's Eve dinner together.
That's exactly what happened to He Bangwei's family, who opened a few rooms in a five-star hotel in Luzhou's Xinzhan district to spend the last day of the Lunar New Year with many relatives and friends.
He Dad He Zhi founded a company with his brother and sister, and the benefits were not bad, so the relatives and friends of the whole big family gathered here with them as the center.
At this time, the circle of elders is talking about family affairs and the company's plans for the coming year, and He Bangwei and the younger generation are another circle, talking about interesting things around them, and Cousin He Lan is among them.
As a returnee from abroad, her wealth of knowledge and good eloquence brought a good conversation point for her brothers and sisters.
He Bangwei sat not far from these younger generations. Watching his sister chatting happily with a cousin with a plate of fruit, and from time to time he had to deal with people who came to chat with him - at first he could answer two sentences, and then he was always "how are your grades", "have you found a girlfriend", "can't you come to the company after graduation"...... He's a little tired.
Maybe these people had good intentions, but He Bangwei was obviously not happy, and then he simply remained silent.
Seeing his sister talking and laughing in the distance, He Bangwei felt a little depressed in his heart - Brother has been with you for so many days. Now you are happy, and I am left alone to suffer......
Cousin He Lan was sometimes talking in the small circle of brothers and sisters, sometimes smiling and commenting, and suddenly caught a glimpse of He Bangwei who was alone.
She thought about it for a while, and had the heart to take this cousin with her, after all, during the Chinese New Year, the circle of relatives and friends could not be integrated, how could she enter the society in the future.
Guided and changed the topic. She talked about the comparison between domestic and foreign education, and then turned to her cousin He Bangwei and asked: "He Bangwei, you haven't graduated yet, you are educated in China, what do you think of the quality of teaching in China?" She asked a question that was easy for her cousin to answer.
He Bangwei glanced at her, the quality of teaching? I slept well on my own, and the others didn't know. He shook his head, not wanting to answer.
He Lan frowned. The voice is not loud: "The biggest difference between China and abroad is whether the students taught are motivated. She didn't say anything more.
The relatives next to him looked at He Bangwei and didn't talk about it. I continued to ask for advice about my cousin's rich experience.
He Bangwei turned a blind eye to everything, and swiped the screen of his mobile phone, and the QQ of his mobile phone kept vibrating, which was Wang Wei's sudden excitement because of Mi Fan's contact in the past few days - he has been trying to gather information about Oscar recently, and has been harassing He Bangwei.
For this sudden news, He Bangwei did not have much shock. There was something about the award in his memory, but he didn't care much about it.
Wang Wei's QQ message sent him the films participating in the Oscars, the popularity predicted by foreign media, and the previous awards...... He has been completely aroused.
Although He Bangwei was not interested, he was more than willing to read the messages sent by his roommates than to greet these relatives.
There was a relative next to him, who remembered the appearance of his cousin, and asked He Lan about his plans after returning to China.
He Lan replied: "I studied media. I've been interviewing in Shencheng for the past month. Right now, I'm trying to work for Warner Bros., MGM, Columbia, Paramount, and the like. โ
"Our Chinese market is a big market, and I think it's more competitive to work in the China department of these companies for a while and gain experience before going to the U.S. headquarters, of course, in a good position." He Lan said lightly, and seemed to be confident about winning the positions in these companies.
He Bangwei heard the familiar name of the company, glanced at her, got up and walked to his sister's sideโshe was still talking and laughing, and seemed to have completely forgotten about her brother.
Seeing him coming over, the first person to greet him was He Manwen, the little cousin who was chatting with He Wanxi, "Hey, cousin, long time no see." โ
Nodding, He Bangwei took a slice of cantaloupe from the plate served by He Wanxi.
Glancing at his brother, He Wanxi said, "Have you finished replying to those fox spirits?" There's self-help over there, so you can get it yourself. โ
Today is the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, He Bangwei received a lot of blessing text messages on his mobile phone, and he was quite interested in replying one by one for a few lazy days, but he did not expect his sister to be jealous of this matter.
Maybe not really angry, He Bangwei observed his sister's eyebrows and eyes, and felt more like coquettishness.
He used such a word to describe his sister, which is one of his experiences after getting along these days.
didn't say anything, turned around and went to the autonomous region to get a dinner plate, put fruit and dessert and came back here, handing it to He Wanxi.
I saw my sister "hum" and took a small cake and stuffed it into her mouth.
He Bangwei was a little proud in his heart, he was a person who was good at summarizing.
The little cousin He Manwen couldn't help laughing when he saw the behavior of the two brothers and sisters, and also took a piece of watermelon from his cousin's dinner plate and thanked him sweetly.
The 30th year of the Chinese New Year's Eve gradually came to an end with the narration of relatives and friends, as the TV program progressed, and as the fireworks bloomed outside.
The Lunar New Year came quietly in Ho Bangwei's somewhat boring and depressed mood.
The mobile phone in his pocket was still vibrating, and I don't know if Wang Wei was continuing to be excited or if there was a new message of blessings coming in.
Ignoring these for the time being, He Bangwei stood in the hotel, but his heart was a little complicated, and he could say in the future that I came to this world last year.
It's only been a few months, but it's been last year.
sighed, his heart was a little empty, and he was inexplicably a little emotional.
Say goodbye to the old year and welcome the new year.
Exotics, joys and sorrows, just the head. (To be continued.) )
PS: I came back late, and I started to make up for the arrears this month.
