Chapter 86: Son-in-law's New Year's Greetings
85_85712Tong Yan's hometown is in a village under the jurisdiction of the county, when his father Tong Hang was admitted to a junior college, he got a job in the county, and then met his mother Liu Nian, who was a girl in the city, and then settled in the county.
Tong Yan often went to the countryside to play when he was a child, went up to the tree to dig eggs, went into the water to fish, and poked the honeycomb, and caught it, it can be said that the best memories of his childhood are there, but since the death of his grandparents in his hometown, Tong Yan has not gone back much, although the Tong family does not often return to his hometown, but the old house of the Tong family has been preserved, and he lives there much brighter than the county seat, with a row of blue brick houses and spacious yards.
After the father and son of the Tong family returned to their hometown, they first cleaned the yard and room of the old house, and the cultivated land of the Tong Yan family has been transferred to other families, but the father of the house has been reluctant to deal with it, he always said that if he is tired of living in the city, at least there is such a place to go, so as not to be adrift.
When he was busy until 11 o'clock at noon, Tong Yan took Tong Yan to the grave to worship, which included burning paper, worshipping ancestors, setting off firecrackers and other links, Tong Yan was already very familiar with these steps, and he was the one who accompanied his father back to his hometown every year.
The cemetery is full of crackling firecrackers, whose firecrackers have many patterns, and the movement is big, indicating who mixes well, the Tong family has experienced the hospitalization of Tong's mother in the past year, and the vitality is greatly injured, so this year's firecrackers are not so loud.
After going through this process, Tong Yan's father took Tong Yan to talk to the elders in the village, because Tong Yan's family is of high seniority, so the middle-aged people present are basically his peers, and those who are similar to his age have to call him uncle, and a bunch of adults and children get together to talk about the child's academic performance the most. Even if Tong Yan's grades have dropped a lot, but when it comes to this topic, Tong Yan is still the most envied one in the crowd, there are many college students in the village, but there are no famous universities, Tong Yan is likely to be the first.
After going to the grave, Tong's father took Tong Yan to visit several elders in the clan, and it was supposed to go to them on the first day of the Lunar New Year, but their family has been celebrating the New Year in the county all these years, so these ceremonies should also be advanced.
It's a pity that I didn't see those childhood friends when I came back this time, but Tong Yan wasn't sure if they still knew him, after all, he hadn't seen him for some years.
When I got home, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon, Tong Ma and Shanshan had already begun to prepare the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, no matter what hardships and ups and downs the family encountered in the past year, the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was very rich, there were chickens, fish and meat, other people's tables had them, and there were also here, not more shabby than other people's homes, this is the beginning of the year, and the hearty meals symbolize the happiness of the whole year in the future.
"It's a pity that there are only four people in the family, which is not lively enough." Tong's mother complained about this.
Tong Shanshan immediately answered: "What are you waiting for, my brother will bring his girlfriend home and have another baby, and it will be lively then." β
Tong Yan glared at Shanshan: "When the time comes, you bring another boyfriend back and give me a big fat nephew, it will be even more lively!" β
Tong's father smiled and said, "It's too early to say this, the top priority is for Xiaoyan to get admitted to a good university, and Shanshan will also work hard to be admitted to Qingxian No. 1 Middle School." β
Dad's words suddenly knocked Shanshan's vigor away, and he couldn't get into the public-funded students, either he would be a self-financed student, and the annual tuition fee would be much more than others, or he would go to the second middle school or even a vocational high school to study and study, and the pressure was really great!
However, Tong Yan said: "What's so good about Qingxian No. 1 Middle School, there hasn't been a single Tsinghua University and Peking University for more than ten years, and there are only twenty or thirty students who pass the first line every year, and it is still good to take the exam for our school, with a 90% undergraduate pass rate." β
Tong's mother felt that Tong Yan was a bit too much to say this, Shanshan's academic performance couldn't be compared with him at all, and they would burn high incense if they could be admitted to Qingxian No. 1 Middle School, not to mention Yangping No. 1 Middle School, and there were not many people in the county who could be admitted every year, and his words hit Shanshan too hard.
"Xiao Yan, if you don't say a word, the county is actually not bad." Tong's mother comforted Shanshan.
Tong Yan saw the gloom in his sister's eyes, and couldn't help but regret what he said just now, his original intention was to send Shanshan to Yangping No. 1 Middle School with the manuscript fee he earned, so that she could receive a better education in a better environment, and it was never to hit her.
"When I didn't say anything." At this time, Tong Yan couldn't show his heart, so he had to say a word, but he was calculating in his heart that there was still a year and a half before his sister went to high school, and with his manuscript fee, it would not be a problem to save enough for the highest school sponsorship fee of 30,000 yuan, and he would give his sister a big surprise at that time.
After cleaning up the dining table, the whole family waited in front of the TV for the Spring Festival Gala, it seems that they have no other entertainment and pastime except for the Spring Festival Gala, this family does not like to play cards and mahjong, Tong Yan can't take out his laptop to let them watch American blockbusters.
After the Spring Festival Gala began, Tong Yan kept looking at his watch, and at 8:14, when his parents Shanshan were watching Feng Gong's sketch and laughing, Tong Yan said: "Oh, by the way, I'll go and call our head teacher for the New Year." β
Tong's mother hurriedly said: "Go quickly, your teacher really worries a lot about you." β
Tong's father added: "I was looking for a doctor thanks to you Teacher Song. β
Old Song's appreciation of Tong Yan Tong Dad Tong Mom also knows that when the first parent-teacher meeting was held, Song Xiancheng praised Tong Yan as a flower, and even Dong Mian, who was the first in the general exam, did not have this kind of treatment, so Tong Dad and Tong Mom had a hundred respect and admiration for this gentle and elegant Teacher Song.
Tong Yan walked into his parents' room and dialed the phone number of Lao Song's family, at this point in time, it should be Song Rao who should be guarding the phone.
"Hello?" Sure enough, it was Song Yan's beautiful voice, in order to hear this voice, Tong Yan colluded with Song Yan two days ago, and waited until the evening of the Chinese New Year's Eve, at eight o'clock and fifteen, Tong Yan called Old Song to pay New Year's greetings, first chatted with Song Yan for a while and then called Old Song to answer the phone.
At this time, Lao Song has been sent by Song Rao to brush the pot and wash the dishes, he never thought that his daughter and his lover would use this kind of trick to talk to him behind his back, the relationship between the two heated up again in the half month of not seeing, although they couldn't see each other, but through guΓ²qq and the phone, they felt closer to each other, and when they heard each other's voices, they felt that there were endless topics.
They chatted for twenty minutes and still couldn't get enough, if it weren't for Song Rao seeing that her father was about to clean up the kitchen, she would really be reluctant to hand over the phone to her father.
"My dad is coming out soon, so let's not talk about it yet." Song Rao said nervously.
"Hmm." Tong Yan calmed down and was about to pay New Year's greetings to Lao Song, but he had already vaguely heard Song Rao shouting to this old Song, "Dad, your phone number is your student giving you New Year's greetings." β
And Tong Yan on the other end of the phone has already made up his brain automatically: Dad, your phone is your son-in-law who gave you New Year's greetings......
