Fang Yang and Finn dragged their luggage out of the terminal, and as soon as they went out, Fang Yang saw Pei Chengfeng who came to pick up the plane.

I don't know when it started, as long as Fang Yang returned to Beijing, Han Lingfei would personally arrange for his secretary to come to the airport to pick him up with his own car. In fact, this also reflects Fang Yang's important position in Han Lingfei's heart from one side.

"Finn, the car that picked us up has arrived, let's go!" Fang Yang said with a smile.

Then he led Finn to walk towards Pei Chengfeng together.

When Pei Chengfeng saw Fang Yang, he also hurried up to greet him. Fang Yang said with a smile:

"Brother Pei, have a good New Year! It's really embarrassing for you to run in person for the Chinese New Year! ”

"Look at what you said, it's all your own people's foreign words!" Pei Chengfeng feigned anger.

Han Lingfei's driver, a third-class noncommissioned officer, quickly took Fang Yang and Fin's luggage and dragged them towards the Audi military vehicle. And Fang Yang introduced Finn and Pei Chengfeng, and made a cameo appearance as Finn's translator by the way.

Seeing a lieutenant colonel officer coming to greet him in person, and using an Audi A8 military car, Finn couldn't help but be a little more curious about Fang Yang's identity.

Several people got into the car separately, Pei Chengfeng sat in the co-pilot's seat, and after closing the door, he turned around and said:

"Fang Yang, the chief, they are all over the old mansion, let's go directly?"

"Okay! After sending us off, you can go back to celebrate the New Year with your sister-in-law and children! Fang Yang said with a smile.

During the Spring Festival, the traffic situation in the capital is much better than usual. Because many people have driven back to their hometowns for the New Year, the congestion that used to be everywhere is gone, and the road is quite smooth.

It only took half the usual time for the car to drive to the old house of the Han family located in the thin alley of Jianguo Road.

After Fang Yang got out of the car, he stopped Pei Chengfeng and the third-level non-commissioned officer who were coming to help with the luggage, and asked them to hurry back to accompany their families for the New Year. Then he led Finn to the door of the old mansion and rang the doorbell.

After a while, the door of the old mansion opened, and the housekeeping attendant Chen Ma looked at it, and when she saw that it was Fang Yang, Chen Ma was stunned.

"Mother Chen, have a good New Year!" Fang Yang said with a smile.

Chen's mother came back to her senses and hurriedly said:

"Young Master Fang is back! Happy New Year, good New Year...... Come on, come in! ”

After speaking, Mother Chen let Fang Yang and the others in, and after she closed the door, she walked quickly to the front of Fang Yang, and said loudly as she walked:

"Old lady, third lady! Young Master Fang is back! ”

Hearing this "retro" title, Fang Yang couldn't help but show a smile. The old lady is naturally the old lady Hui Yueying, and the "third lady" is Fang Yang's mother Han Xuehua. In Han Changzheng's room, she is the third, and there are two brothers Han Lingfei and Han Junfei above.

Because of the Chinese New Year, the old house has been swept cleaner and cleaner, and the yard is almost spotless. And everywhere is full of the taste of the New Year, the people of Beijing are very particular about the New Year, today is the Chinese New Year's Eve, so the door has been pasted with Spring Festival and door gods.

And the word "inverted blessing" can be seen everywhere, and even the water tank in the yard has a blessing word pasted. There are also exquisite window flowers and the aroma of delicacies in the air, which makes people can't help but feel the flavor of the New Year.

The old mansion is a standard Ming and Qing style building, and from the moment he first entered the door, Finn felt that his eyes were almost out of sight.

A chaotic sound of footsteps came, and the old lady walked out quickly with the support of Han Xuehua, and before she got closer, the old lady was already teary-eyed, and she said:

"Yangyang, my dear baby...... Grandma finally saw you again......"

Fang Yang hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed the old lady's hand and said:

"Grandma, Happy New Year! You're all right! ”

"Good, good...... It's all good! The old lady said with tears in her eyes and a smile.

"Mom!" Fang Yang's Han Xuehua, who was on the same side, also said hello.

"It's good to be back." Han Xuehua said softly, compared to the old lady, her expression was relatively calm, but there was still excitement in her eyes.

Han Lingfei and the others also walked out after him, Fang Yang let go of the old lady's hand and greeted respectfully one by one:

"Uncle, aunt, aunt...... Happy Chinese New Year! ”

Han Junfei is the leader of the Southern Jiangsu Provincial Party Committee, and he will definitely not be able to leave during the Spring Festival, but he will fly back to the capital on the second day of the first lunar month.

Han Lingfei, Gu Lin, and Kou Bingxin also smiled and nodded in greeting.

"Yangyang, this is the German friend you said! Let me tell you about it! Han Xuehua reminded Dao Fei that he was coming to the capital, and Fang Yang had already called Han Xuehua to tell him.

"Yes, yes, yes!" Fang Yang then remembered that Finn was left to hang by himself, and hurriedly said, "Elders, this is my friend Finn, he is from Germany, and he came to the capital with me today to celebrate the Spring Festival. ”

He then introduced his elders to Finn in German.

Finn had a cheerful personality, and after the introduction, he bowed his hand and said in blunt Chinese:

"Wishing you prosperity......"

This bow salute and auspicious words are still learned on the plane, although there are only four words, but for Westerners who have never learned Chinese, it is still quite difficult for the tongue to turn the corner, Fang Yang taught him for a long time before he could barely teach him.

Even so, Finn still spoke in a strange tone, and if he didn't listen carefully, he really didn't know that the four syllables he uttered were "Wishing you prosperity".

Everyone was amused by Finn's "ugly" Chinese and greeted him.

Finn was arranged to live in Fang Yang's small courtyard, and the two went together to put away their luggage.

Finn was also full of praise for this Ming and Qing Dynasty building complex full of Chinese style, including the wing room where he lived was so antique, and he was pleasantly surprised.

When they came to the middle courtyard, the descendants of the Han family gathered here to talk and chat. It is already afternoon, and the ancestor worship will soon be carried out, which is also a very important ceremony for the Chinese New Year's Eve.

The spiritual seats of the ancestors of the Han family have been placed, and there are nine large offerings on the offering table made of two chapters of the Eight Immortals Table in the cigarette smoke, and everyone is led by the old lady to pay tribute to the ancestors of the Han family with incense.

This year is the first Spring Festival after the death of Mr. Han, and the old man who used to celebrate the New Year with everyone is now only one spiritual position, and everyone is also a little sad. Especially when Han Xuehua has been away from home for so many years, looking at his father's name on the latest spirit card, he remembered the time when he was under the knees of the old man in front of him, and he couldn't help but have some red eyes.

Returning to the hall and sitting down, the old lady took Fang Yang's hand and was reluctant to let go, and after a long time, Fang Yang couldn't help but feel a trace of admiration, and talked with the old lady for a long time.

Finn didn't feel bored either, he looked here and touched there, and it felt very fresh.

Soon night fell, and a large family sat around the big round table to prepare for the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.

In the past, the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was the sumniest dinner of the year, although the Han family has a big business, and it is impossible to lack food and clothing, but the preparation of the Chinese New Year's Eve meal is still meticulous in accordance with the old customs, and there are many kinds of cold meat, large items and clear dishes.

Fang Yang ran before and after helping to serve the dishes and pour wine, in a trance as if returning to the previous life, the Fang family New Year is also such a large family sitting together, when he was young, Fang Yang was most looking forward to the New Year, because at this time the adults were busy preparing the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and the children naturally herded sheep and could play unscrupulously.

The old lady picked up her glass and smiled and said:

"Although Lao Han is gone, but this year is the most complete time for our Han family, Xiaohua is still at home for the first time in so many years, and Yangyang, you mother and son have suffered all these years......

Speaking of this, the old lady was a little sad, her voice became choked, and everyone hurriedly persuaded each other, and the New Year was not in tears.

The old lady steadied for a moment and continued:

"Come, let's raise a glass together, I hope that the family will be harmonious and beautiful in the future, and the days will be more and more prosperous!"

"Grandma, I also wish you good health and a long and blessed life!" Fang Yang was the first to speak.

Han Lingfei and the others also said auspicious words, and even Finn came with a strange tone of "Wishing you prosperity", and the old lady was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth. Everyone toasted together.

"The dumplings are coming!" Chen's mother walked up with a pot of steaming dumplings.

"Finn, you must eat dumplings during the Chinese New Year." Fang Yang whispered to Finn, "You see that our dumplings are wrapped into ancient Chinese ingots, which is to entrust everyone's good wishes......

"It's beautiful! It's like a work of art! Finn couldn't help but praise when he saw the chic dumplings.

"Remember not to eat too much when you eat later......," Fang Yang reminded.

"Why?" Finn asked, a little puzzled.

Fang Yang said with a smile:

"According to the customs of our capital, some special fillings will be wrapped in dumplings, and each special dumpling has a special meaning, so you must taste it slowly."

"Oh, I see!" Finn suddenly realized.

"Come, let's eat dumplings!" Han Lingfei greeted.

Chen's mother began to give everyone a grand dumpling on the side, while Finn looked at the dumplings in the shape of a simple ingot, looking forward to the new delicacy.

The old lady picked up a dumpling, dipped it in vinegar and put it in her mouth, chewed it a few times, and said to Chen's mother with a smile:

"Xiao Chen, you're marking the dumplings again......"

Chen's mother smiled a little embarrassedly, every year during the Chinese New Year, she made dumplings by herself, and she gave them to the old lady by herself, and this year is naturally no exception.

Everyone's eyes turned to the past, and Han Xuehua said in surprise:

"Mom, your dumplings are peanut filled, what a good sign!"

Han Lingfei and others also discussed happily, in fact, everyone knew that this peanut-stuffed dumpling was marked by Chen's mother and specially served to the old lady, but during the Chinese New Year, everyone wanted to please a good fortune, so they naturally ignored it selectively.

"Why is everyone so happy when your grandma eats peanuts?" Finn asked, puzzled.

"Finn, peanuts are also called longevity fruit in China, so when the elderly eat dumplings with this filling, it indicates health and longevity, and everyone is of course happy." Fang Yang explained with a smile.

"The customs of China are so interesting." Finn said as he ate the dumplings.

Fang Yang also picked up a dumpling and put it in his mouth, and when he bit into it, he felt that the filling seemed to be a little hard, and he looked down and couldn't help but show a wry smile......
