Chapter 357: Journey to the West (3)

On the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Meng Zhengen personally sent the Qi Tian Great Sage design map that had been revised according to Chen Mo's opinion again. |Among every two people who read romance, there was an account that had registered for the network of Ke ° Le ° Xiao ° Say °.

Still messy hair, or bloodshot eyes, God knows if Meng Zhengen has slept in the past two days.

However, this time there were only two set pictures, and Chen Mo felt good when he saw them, so he showed them to Wen Nuannuan and Ji Yanran.

The feeling of the two girls is similar to Chen Mo, and I also think that the two pictures are not bad, but the aesthetics of life are different, Wen Nuannuan prefers the slightly warmer male monkey, while Ji Yanran prefers the domineering and pure one.

So Chen Mo's final opinion is: "Why don't you have two sides of the same body, usually draw a little warmer and uninhibited, and paint a little more domineering when you should be mighty." ”

This opinion was unanimously approved by everyone, and Meng Zhengen, who received this supreme instruction, submitted his farewell.

"Brother Meng, you see that today is the Chinese New Year's Eve, why don't we take a day off and stay at home to accompany our family for a year? Celebrate Chinese New Year's Eve or something? In a word...... Let's stop painting today, won't we? ”

Chen Mo stopped Meng Zhengen, as a good man who now has a family and a court, Chen Mo felt that he needed to care about the family harmony of the anime fanatic in front of him.

No matter what, the Meng family sisters are also regular employees of Storm Video Company, and they didn't know it before, but now that they can say such a sentence, then Chen Mo must want to gossip.

"Amer, I was planning to go home for the New Year? As you said, today is the Chinese New Year, and no matter how much you ignore your family, you must go home to accompany your family...... Oh yes! I have already discussed with Humble Jing that tomorrow I will bring the whole family to greet Amer for the New Year, you can't just shut us out for the sake of having fun with your own family behind closed doors! ”

Meng Zhengen's eyes widened, and he looked at Chen Mo in some surprise, he didn't seem to understand why Chen Mo said this in particular, after all, in his own consciousness, he didn't care about his family's workaholism. It's definitely not him.

"No, no, welcome! Guaranteed to sweep the bed! ”

Chen Mo was a little relieved, so he responded to Meng Zhengen with a smile.

With this affirmative promise, Meng Zhengen also returned home happily.

was able to determine the character of Sun Wukong, the core character of "Journey to the West", a few years ago. For Meng Zhengen, that is the greatest affirmation of his hard work during this time.

……

Although it is isolated overseas, separated from the mainland by the ocean, the New Year's flavor of Honolulu is also very strong.

The streets and alleys are all lit up, and the sound of firecrackers has been ringing since the afternoon.

Standing on the balcony with a distant view, Chen Mo saw the city filled with gunsmoke. Everywhere are busy posting couplets and hanging lanterns, and even from a long distance, it seems that you can hear everyone's laughter.

"In the sound of firecrackers, the spring breeze sends warmth into Tusu, and thousands of households always replace the new peach with the old one."

Chen Mo couldn't help but chant this poem by Wang Anshi, a famous minister and reformer of the Northern Song Dynasty.

Even Chen Mo actually knew very well that Wang Anshi's poem called "Yuan Ri" was actually describing the New Year's weather to speak for his reforms.

The ancients were subtle and euphemistic.

But Chen Mo is here. It's just a matter of using its expression.

"Fake uncle, don't be lazy there! Hurry up and make dumplings with us! ”

Before Chen Mo's words fell, Ji Yanran's voice came from the kitchen.

Although it is a guest house, it is not a bit of a New Year's feeling after all, so Yan Ma went to buy a lot of New Year's stickers, ornaments and ornaments to decorate the house, of course, the most important thing is to make dumplings of various ingredients.

So it is a matter of course for the whole family to go into battle to make New Year's dumplings.

Well, it must be noted that although Ji Yanran's appearance is particularly positive, her two sleeves are rolled up and she has made a body of flour. But where did she actually help, the dumplings she made were creative at best, and to put it bluntly, they were a new variety in the dark cuisine world......

Chen Mo washed his hands and started work, and compared Ji Yanran's creative dumplings in minutes. But Ji Yanran refused to admit defeat, and after finding that she couldn't stand the dumplings she made, her fighting spirit became more and more high.

Finally, after ruining dozens of dumpling skins, Ji Yanran, who was about to make herself a noodle person, finally made a dumpling that could barely be seen. It made her feel incredibly proud.

So this situation naturally triggered another round of ridicule and laughter for everyone who had begun to prepare the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.

Although counting the two female bodyguards, there are only five people who have spent this year with Chen Mo.

But Chen Mo forcibly asked to prepare dishes that could fill at least two large tables, and all dishes were prepared in double portions.

This forced request made everyone feel extremely puzzled, and it was not until the doorbell was finally rang that the mystery was finally revealed.

The one who rang the doorbell was the one with Sister Mu's son Zhou Qinhan, and more than a dozen family members, including the families of the two female bodyguards.

The sudden arrival of the family made Sister Mu and the two female bodyguards stunned, they actually talked to their families on the phone today, but no one knew that there would be such a big surprise waiting for them.

"This is all arranged by Brother Xiaohei, Brother Xiaohei said that he wanted us to give your mother a big surprise, so that we can also spend the Spring Festival together this year."

The mystery was uncovered by Zhou Qinhan.

This big surprise obviously moved Yan's mother and the two female bodyguards, although because Chen Mo couldn't do without them and paid a high salary, they had already been prepared not to be able to celebrate the New Year with their families this year, but as Chinese people, deep down, how could they really not celebrate the New Year with their families?

Who knows, Chen Mo actually prepared such a big surprise for everyone!

"Hehe, the family reunion during the Chinese New Year is an old tradition of our people, how can I be a bad example of not respecting tradition? But explain in advance, Sister Mu, your year-end gift this year is gone, only a small red envelope is left. ”

Chen Mo said with a smile.

"Where else do you need a gift, isn't this the biggest and best year-end gift!"

Sister Mu responded with tears in her eyes, and the two female bodyguards also claimed to be the same, and said that they didn't even need to send red envelopes again, and they were already satisfied.

So next, in its happy state, everyone started to continue to prepare the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner together.

"Fake uncle, why don't you bring your family over too? Look at Sister Mu and their family reunion. It's very comfortable in people's hearts. ”

Ji Yanran, who had already washed her face again, finally lowered her voice and asked Chen Mo after looking at the scene of Sister Mu and their family reunion for a while.

Chen Mo, who was originally chopping vegetables, paused in the movements of his hands. But soon he resumed his movements, and after cutting a potato thinly and evenly, he put down the knife and finally turned his head to look at Ji Yanran.

"Because, my family is already here."

Chen Mo said.

That family, after all, is just a physical blood relative of this body. Chen Mo paid for his brother's kidney replacement at the beginning, and then did not say that the grievances were eliminated and completely denied the relationship, which was already benevolent and righteous.

Ji Yanran's face was completely filled with a sweet and happy smile in an instant, and she obviously had her own unique understanding of Chen Mo's words, which were actually quite connotative.

The sound of firecrackers outside became stronger, probably a little unable to bear the continuous sound of firecrackers, Zhou Qinhan ran to lock all the open doors and windows, and the noise coming into the house was quiet.

Fortunately, there are enough people in the house, and there are almost twenty adults with children. It's still lively.

Everyone gathered firewood and the flame was high, and the two large tables of Chinese New Year's Eve and rice were soon ready to work, and the large dining room and the tables and chairs that had also been prepared in advance played their due role......

The Chinese New Year's Eve meal, which was full of laughter and laughter, lasted until almost half past ten in the evening, and finally came to an end.

The TV in the large living room was turned on, but unfortunately there was no Spring Festival Gala that Chen Mo used as part of the New Year, so the huge TV was not enough for everyone who was full of food and drink to sit in front of it, killing time until the bell ringing to announce the coming of the New Year.

"Fake uncle. Let's tell a story! Tell the story! You've only told a little bit about the story of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", so let's continue to talk about the rest tonight! ”

Maybe it was because she thought that the TV show was too boring, and it was not appropriate to hide back in her room to play games, Ji Yanran was randomly tuning the station for a while. But after still not finding a program that could attract her, she threw away the remote control and bypassed the sofa and grabbed Chen Mo's arm.

This girl is in front of Chen Mo, and she is becoming more and more concerned about being eaten tofu by Chen Mo, anyway, when she grabbed Chen Mo's arm, her whole body was close to Chen Mo, which made Chen Mo wonder what her proud figure was doing.

"What kind of ghost blowing lamp to dig graves and rob graves on Chinese New Year's Eve? Don't talk about it, don't talk about it! ”

Everyone took turns to toast, so now there is a little dizzy Chen Mo. was stimulated by Ji Yanran's fiery delicate body attached to him, and he was a little unbearable.

Twenty Lang was old, and because Wen Nuan Nuan was raising a baby, Chen Mo, who had been a monk for almost a month, really couldn't resist this kind of sensory stimulation.

What's more, it's still in this state of drinking.

"Let's talk about it, tell this kind of story on Chinese New Year's Eve, so that everyone can drive away drowsiness and easily finish this year!" Right, Sister Nuan? Right, three generations? Isn't that everyone? ”

Ji Yanran dragged Chen Mo's arm and shook it straight, this girl was even able to pull allies.

"The words of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" ......"

Wen Nuannuan's expression was a little hesitant, she had been promoted to an expectant mother, and she couldn't help but think about the unborn child in her heart, she couldn't help but listen to the strange story of the ghost blowing the lamp, would it have a bad impact on the unborn baby.

There's no way, who let Chen Mo have nothing to do these days, and instilled a belly of prenatal education concepts in Wen Nuannuan?

"Brother Xiaohei, "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" is a wonderful and good story, and it is not a ghost story purely used to scare people, in fact, it is harmless to tell it!"

Zhou Qinhan took the lead in expressing his support for Ji Yanran.

In fact, after listening to Chen Mo's "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", Zhou Qinhan abandoned all the outlines of several novels with tombs as the main line that he had prepared before-too scum! Sure enough, I'm not good at making up story outlines!

Because this is more than the goods to be thrown away, Zhou Qinhan is obsessed with Chen Mo's "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", but it is a pity that Chen Mo came to Honolulu after barely telling the first story, that is, the "Exquisite Ancient City", Zhou Qinhan didn't think about tea and dinner during this time, and his mind was full of conjectures about the follow-up story of the ghost blowing the lantern, he really wanted to know where Hu Bayi would go to start a new tomb exploration adventure after tossing the exquisite ancient city.

"What "Ghost Blows the Lamp"?"

Everyone knows that ghosts blow out the lamp, and Chen Mo did not take out the ghost blow out the lamp to the public, that is, several people in the family, as well as Zhou Qinhan and Qiu Dalin, knew about it, so it is not surprising that a female bodyguard with a good ear asked this with full curiosity.

In order to attract more allies, Zhou Qinhan used the most concise way to popularize science for everyone what is called "Ghost Blowing the Lamp".

Although I still don't understand the background of the story at all, this does not prevent everyone from being interested in the story of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" after Zhou Qinhan finished popularizing science.

"Ahem, I don't think I'll talk about it tonight, everyone still doesn't know the cause and effect, why do you have to listen to the beginnings I've already talked about, and then continue to listen to the follow-up, right? Anyway, tomorrow! Tomorrow it's all done! Today, let's change it to ...... How about playing cards? ”

Chen Mo resolutely did not speak.

"Fake uncle, don't be kidding, how can so many people play cards together?"

Ji Yanran is really not happy, she really wants to hear the story of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" at this time.

"Let's play cards, everyone can take turns."

Wen Nuannuan is obviously more supportive of the big names.

"Okay, let's play the cards."

Seeing that Wen Nuannuan didn't support herself, Ji Yanran stopped insisting.

"In fact, there are many kinds of cards, everyone wait for me for a while, and I will get a card that everyone can play!"

Chen Mo, who took the initiative to play cards, obviously had been fully prepared for a long time.

In fact, Chen Mo, who went to the study urgently, quickly took a thick stack of cards.

That card seemed to be just an ordinary playing card, but when Ji Yanran curiously picked up one and looked at it, she was surprised to find that it was not a playing card, but another kind of card transformed from an ordinary playing card with small characters written on it, so strange that it was completely incomprehensible -

"Liu Bei? Rende: During the play phase, you can give at least one card from your hand to another character, and if you reach two cards for the first time during this phase, you will regenerate 1 body. Radical: ...... Fake uncle, what kind of card is this? (To be continued.) )
