Although Wugu County is only a poor county, the taste of the New Year in this small county town is particularly strong during the New Year, the sound of fireworks and firecrackers on Chinese New Year's Eve resounded throughout the city, watching the Spring Festival Gala after eating Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is an indispensable program in the Chinese New Year's Eve, watching the Spring Festival Gala when the family sat by the fire while taking the fire and chatting, while watching TV and eating snacks, and welcoming the New Year's bell together.

Early in the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, Xu Hongwen was awakened by the sound of firecrackers, and when he crawled out of the warm quilt, the sky was still just numb, and the custom of the family was to open the door for the first time on the morning of the first day of the new year called the opening of the door of wealth.

Although Xu Hongwen didn't care about this, but this custom was a New Year's fun, he came out of the room and saw that his parents had gotten up early, his father was busy cleaning up the house, and his mother was making the first breakfast of the new year, and they had already packed up when Xu Hongwen finished washing and combing.

When the door was opened, the father Xu Jinjun called Xu Hongwen to open the door, and the family went back to the house to eat the first breakfast of the New Year after completing a set of procedures for opening the door of wealth.

The first stop of Xu Hongwen's family is naturally the second uncle's house in Xujia Village, when the grandparents were alive, they lived in the old house in Xujia Village, and their first stop was to pay New Year's greetings to their grandparents, although now the grandparents have passed away, but the habit of going to Xujia Village at the first stop has been retained.

The temperature outside the house is particularly low, and there is a thick layer of ice on the mountain road where you can usually ride a bicycle, and now you have to be careful when you go out, let alone riding a bicycle, you have to be careful when walking, Xu Hongwen who walked on the road thought that if you have money, you must repair this road!

Xu Hongwen's family walked half an hour to the second uncle's house, but it took more than an hour today, and when he entered the village, he met acquaintances from time to time and said to each other: "Happy New Year!" "The Chinese New Year is the happiest time for children, and no one is rich at this time, and only during the New Year is they willing to open meat and have snacks to eat.

When he walked into the second uncle's house, he found that the second uncle's house was more prosperous than in previous years, and after entering the door, Xu Hongwen hurriedly gave the second uncle and second aunt New Year's greetings.

After the second aunt was particularly enthusiastic to take out all kinds of snacks to entertain, the second aunt He Hong, who had a happy event, smiled so much that she didn't close her mouth, and when she asked, she knew that Hongwu took the money given by Xu Hongwen and went home, and then went to Du Yue's house to propose marriage, there is a way to be rich and courageous, and the second uncle's family directly took out 5,000 yuan of ** to Du Yue's parents, Du Yue's family had no objections, and after this family affair was set, it finally fell into the heart of the second aunt, although the in-laws were a little poor and loved the rich, but fortunately, the future daughter-in-law was a good person in ten miles.

Xu Hongwen's parents who heard the news naturally congratulated the second uncle and second aunt, and after saying this, the second aunt went to the kitchen to get busy, Xu Hongwen on the side also felt happy to see his cousin Hongwu smiling, Xu Hongwen smiled and asked the second uncle sitting next to his father: "Second uncle, has Hongwu's wedding date been set?" ”

The second uncle Xu Jinguo said happily: "I originally thought that the marriage would be done in the first month, but this is the New Year, and we don't have time to notify relatives and friends, so we set the day at the May Day holiday!" ”

Xu Jinjun was also happy when he heard this, patted his thigh and said to Xu Hongwen's second uncle with a smile: "Enter the country, our brothers can have two more drinks later!" ”

Before the second uncle could reply, her mother Fang Mei scolded with a smile: "You are just looking for an excuse to drink, today I will let you break the vow and drink two more glasses, only two more drinks!" ”

Looking at his father's embarrassment on the side, Xu Hongwen felt funny, Xu Hongwen knew that his father was a wine jar, and Xu Hongwen had never seen his father drunk when he was so big, but in the past two years, after his father often had stomach problems, he was ordered by his mother to limit alcohol, and he drank a small glass of wine at most at a meal, so they had a lot of fights at home about this.

The second uncle, Xu Jinguo, looked at the joke on the side and said: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, if the eldest brother wants to drink more, I won't pour it for him!" ”

……

On the tenth day of the first lunar month, seeing the approach of the Xiangjiang Lighting Exhibition, Xu Hongwen took Yuan Lei and Hongwu, who had specially asked for leave, to return to Haizhou, and let Hongwu stay in the store after opening the store.

After doing the documents, Xu Hongwen went to the customs to declare the customs clearance procedures for the exhibition to bring LED lights, and it took Xu Hongwen several days to do this.

After getting off the plane at Xiangjiang International Airport and getting the eight boxes of LEDs and luggage hauled, Yuan Lei asked with a bitter face: "Brother Wen, we can't move such a thing!" ”

Xu Hongwen, who had a plan, said with a smile: "I didn't ask you to move, and a friend of mine will rent a car to pick us up later!" ”

After saying that, Xu Hongwen asked Yuan Lei to guard things, he took Cheng Cheng to the airport management to borrow a hand-pulled trailer, pulled things out of the airport building, and when he arrived at the waiting area, Xu Hongwen saw Wang Shengyuan standing next to a small truck and looking around, but the fat Wang Fat Man was very eye-catching.

Xu Hongwen, who approached, shouted: "Fat brother, Happy New Year!" ”

Don't look at Wang Shengyuan is a lawyer who is a strict sù profession, after getting acquainted, I know that he is a particularly funny person, seeing Xu Hongwen three dragging a lot of things over, he hurriedly stepped forward and smiled like a Maitreya Buddha and said: "Wishing you prosperity, bring the red envelope!" ”

Xu Hongwen also joked: "Fat brother, you want money when you meet, isn't it too hurtful!" ”

Wang Fatzi had already greeted him and said with a smile: "Talking about money hurts feelings, but talking about feelings hurts even more money!" ”

Xu Hongwen said disdainfully: "You are worthy of being a lawyer who grew up in a capitalist society!" ”

After saying a few words, Xu Hongwen introduced Yuan Lei and Cheng Cheng, and after saying hello to each other, Xu Hongwen said: "Let's move things into the car first!" ”

Just a few things and some luggage, a few big men loaded into the cargo compartment of the small truck in two clicks, Xu Hongwen went to return the trailer at the airport and got on the car, the small truck compartment is a double row of seats, Wang Fat Man has no choice but to sit next to the driver, Xu Hongwen and the three of them sit behind.

Out of the airport road into the city of the street, the prosperity of the Xiangjiang is Haizhou can not be compared, into the eyes of the high-rise buildings everywhere make people feel like the forest of reinforced concrete, the road traffic shuttles, see Yuan Lei and Cheng Cheng they are dizzying.

Yuan Lei pointed to the tallest building not far away and said, "Look at how tall that building is!" ”

Cheng Cheng, who was sitting next to Yuan Lei, looked at his hand, and saw that the building stood out among many buildings, and a few and a half of the building seemed to be inserted into the clouds, and Cheng Cheng was also surprised and said: "It's the first time I've seen such a tall building!" ”

Wang Shengyuan, who was sitting in the front co-pilot, saw their surprised appearance, and explained with a smile: "That building is the Izumo Building, which was newly built by the Yunshi Group, the real estate predator of Xiangjiang, with an investment of more than 4 billion, and the Izumo Building has a total of 68 floors, the tallest building in Xiangjiang!" ”

Yuan Lei and Cheng Cheng were surprised when they heard this introduction, how tall the 68-story building was, they couldn't find a building of more than 20 in Haizhou, and Yuan Lei, who studied architecture, knew the technical difficulty of building such a building.

However, a building of this height is nothing in Xu Hongwen's eyes, at this time, he thought that Yuan Lei was studying architecture, so he asked with a smile: "Yuan Lei, if you are given the opportunity to build such a building in the future, how high do you want to build!" ”

Yuan Lei said without thinking: "If I want to build the world's tallest, it will be a few floors higher than the World Trade Center in New York!" ”
