On July 1st, the new house was finally renovated and ready to move. The furniture and appliances over there are all new, and it's not easy to get these things in the rented house.
Anyway, there are nearly two months left to rent a house, and the things are put here first, and then they will either be thrown to the landlord or sold to the second-hand market, but they can't be sold for a few dollars.
The housewarming of the new house, according to the customs and habits here, is to find some relatives and friends to "burn the bottom of the pot".
The so-called pot bottom is that when moving, the pot must be the last to enter the house, and then take out the pot helmet that has been seared from the pot of the old house, and then burn the other side in the pot of the new house until it is cooked.
Then stir-fry and cook, and all the guests who came to congratulate had to eat a pot helmet. It means that all the joy and wealth in the old house will be moved to the new house, and relatives and friends will share it together.
It's not so troublesome now, it's usually just a matter of cooking a meal with a new pot together, and everyone doesn't start moving early in the morning at sunrise, but chooses 10 o'clock in the morning, just in time for lunch.
Today happens to be the weekend, and even the company's leaders on duty have come, plus Zheng Kai and his wife, Zheng Lei's parents, Lin Ming Jinling, Huang Zhihang and others, and two tables have been set up.
Zheng's mother had to follow the tradition, she prepared noodles last night, and this morning she burned dozens of single-sided pot helmets at home, and after arriving at the new house, she quickly continued to burn, plus Zheng Lei, Jin Ling, Su Hong and others, everyone cooked together, and Zheng's father specially ordered a few main dishes in the restaurant outside, and it was just eleven o'clock, and the banquet started.
"Mr. Zhang, if you move today, you can't talk about the first sentence." Wang Zhenglong, business manager, said.
Everyone was gossiping, and they quickly stood up with the cup.
"Thank you all for coming home today. To be honest, owning a new house by the river has always been my greatest wish. Now, with the support of my relatives, friends, colleagues and classmates, I have finally fulfilled this dream. According to the customs of our Northeast people, the first meal must be eaten at home, and I can't cook, auntie, sister-in-law, sister-in-law Jin Ling, Lei Lei, you have worked hard. Today, please share our joy and let us drink happily, not get drunk and go home! ”
"!"
The two tables toasted together and toasted the first glass. Then the topic was discussed, and the more everyone chatted, the happier they became, and the more they chatted, the more presumptuous they became, and Li Xinran asked loudly when he planned to get married.
"I'm always ready, but I have to bring Lei Lei home first, let my parents meet, and then discuss it with the old people, it's not for me to decide. Anyway, my aim is that my wife is the biggest and my husband is second. ”
Zheng Lei sat next to ** and secretly screwed him. **On the surface, he was calm and calm, still talking and laughing with everyone, but his hands couldn't help but shake a little.
Zheng's father and Zheng's mother were also very happy when they heard ** say this. secretly calculated, during the summer vacation, let Zheng Lei go to the capital with **, visit ** parents, and if the negotiation is good, the marriage will be tied this year.
"By the way, second brother, when will you and Sister-in-law Jin Ling get married, you are the matchmaker between me and Lei Lei, you can't go behind us, right?" **Perform the trick of leading the water to the east and successfully divert everyone's attention.
"Yes, Mr. Lin, you are also the leader of our company, you have shares and dividends, you are not married, can you make people believe that you are willing to fight for the company for the rest of your life?" Li Xinran said loudly.
"Mr. Li, it seems that you are not married either, right? We've already discussed, Eleven, everyone is ready for the red envelope, we can wait for your red envelope to travel. Lin Ming said very shamelessly.
"You're too embarrassed to speak, how can you book a red envelope?" Li Chenglong scolded with a smile.
"By the way, Xinran, you don't plan to find one in a hurry, and the boss is not too young, so you are really ready to marry at the age of thirty." Li Chenglong said.
"It's so easy to find one. Either you are more educated than me, or you are stronger than me in your career, otherwise how can you hold me down? Such men are all forty or fifty years old, where can they find the right one? Li Xinran sighed and said.
It's not that she hasn't gone on a blind date this month, but the other party is either too imposing to hold her head up, or she is a bad old man, so there is no suitable one.
"Why isn't there a suitable one, don't you look for it according to Mr. Zhang, can't you just look for it like me? My wife didn't earn more than me back then, and she was also beautiful, and they all said that flowers were planted in cow dung. How about marrying me, cow dung is nutritious and moisturizing. Business manager Sun Ligang said.
"Eat, why are you so disgusting! Also, don't make fun of me and Mr. Zhang, although our company does not prohibit office romances, it can be clearly stipulated that ** leaders are not allowed! Li Xinran scolded with a smile.
Zheng Lei's eyes revealed a trace of hesitation at this time, and then quickly disappeared.
Everyone laughed and scolded, ate until one o'clock in the afternoon, and then went downstairs together, there is a chess and card room in the community, and everyone is ready to play mahjong.
Zheng Lei and several other women stayed to clean up, and even Li Xinran stayed to help. Zheng Lei opened her mouth several times to ask Li Xinran, but in the end she held back, maybe it would be worse if she asked.
The four tables of mahjong are branched out, and they are still in a room, and they do not delay chatting when they play mahjong. It's just that everyone is very well-behaved, everyone takes some chips and puts them in the box, and when they finally leave, they will settle the accounts according to the winning or losing of the chips, which is required by the owner of the chess and card room.
**I want to laugh, if the other party knows that one of them is the deputy director of the city bureau, I won't be so worried, which district police station in the city dares to arrest the deputy director, and a big-eared melon seed can let the other party get out of class.
Speaking of which, although Huang Zhihang is jealous and hateful, he doesn't care much about this kind of small gambling and other things that don't endanger people's lives, and he occasionally plays mahjong, but he doesn't have much time.
"Brother, come with me tomorrow night, I'll introduce you to a few people, this time it's done, tomorrow I will take office, thank you for your help." Forty thousand. While playing mahjong, Huang Zhihang chatted with **.
"What are you talking about, that's not what we do. Besides, it didn't help much, the main thing is that the leader trusts you. Three of a kind. Answer.
"Don't move three kinds, I'll touch them, two cakes." Zheng Kai stopped Li Chenglong's hand that wanted to touch the cards and ran into three of a kind.
They played until seven o'clock in the evening, and they didn't win or lose much, and everyone was mainly chatting.
Dinner is set at the restaurant, and the family can't afford it. Zheng's father and Zheng's mother had already taken Xiaobao back to sleep first. Xiaobao has already had a summer vacation and doesn't have to go to kindergarten tomorrow, so she will stay at her grandparents' house for a few days.
At night, I ate and drank again, ** said during the day, no one can drive, and the money for driving is more expensive than taking a taxi. So I ate until nine o'clock in the evening, ** sent them to the taxi one by one, and then took Zheng Lei's hand home.
"Leilei, we're moving to a new house, are you happy?"
"Hmm."
"What do you mean, it doesn't sound like you're very high, what's wrong, you're too tired to be busy decorating?" **Concerned asks.
"Nope." Zheng Lei replied in a low voice.
"What's wrong with that, you say, is someone bullying you, I'll cut him." **Somewhat anxious.
"It's okay, I'm just tired, let's go home." Zheng Lei held the ** and got into the car. She didn't drink and could drive home.
Naturally, it was another night**, and when she woke up the next day, Zheng Lei had already gone to work. There are still two last weeks in their school, one week for exams, and then another week for marking papers, and Zheng Lei can really have a holiday in mid-July.
