Chapter 16: The Sudden Evolution of the New Year (1)
Firecrackers, Chinese New Year's Eve arrived.
Just after six o'clock, there are already people outside who are setting off firecrackers, listening to the crackling sound outside, as well as the cheers of adults and children, my heart has long been flying, in my memory the New Year is not so lively, at that time the government is not allowed to set off fireworks, except for watching the Spring Festival Gala at home there is no other program, people's living standards are good, usually eat with the same as the New Year, but the more the New Year is more and more without the flavor of the New Year, and there is no expectation of the psychology.
How nice it is now, everyone goes out of the house to set off fireworks together, cheers together, talks together, laughs together, how meaningful.
Daddy and Uncle Hai brought the dishes to the table, steaming a big table, smelling the fragrance my saliva was about to flow out, I wanted to take advantage of everyone's inattention to steal a piece, but unfortunately before my hand reached the side of the plate, I was knocked down by my father: "Little gluttonous cat, have you washed your hands?" I reflexively exclaimed, causing Uncle Hai to laugh on the side, I muttered to wash my hands, this time even Qin You laughed, I pretended to be vicious and glared at him, but I laughed myself. It's really like a child the more I live.
Everyone sat down, and Dad held the cup and said: "This is the first time for our family to celebrate the New Year, Qin You will be eleven after the New Year, and Qin You will go to school when school starts. ”
"Also, there is also, I wish my father Mr. Qin Siqian more and more handsome and chic, with a large group of beautiful girls around, I wish Uncle Hai will always smile and be happy, I wish Qin You to grow into a handsome and handsome man, and finally I wish myself to become a big beauty who is loved by everyone and flowers blooms." Before my father could finish his words, I grabbed it and said a lot of things like a machine gun.
Hahaha, everyone was amused by me, Uncle Hai wiped the tears from laughter and said, "Okay, good, our eldest lady will definitely be a big beauty in the future." I couldn't help but laugh again.
"Come, a toast to our first beautiful woman, come, Happy New Year!" Daddy took the lead in raising the wine glass, Qin You and I also stood up, of course, the wine glass is not wine, but juice, Daddy is so stingy, he won't allow us to drink.
The four cups touched together, each of us was smiling on our faces, everyone's heart was happy, it happened that who was setting off fireworks outside, shining brightly on the glass, the fireworks were also blooming in our hearts, happiness is like this, blooming like flowers.
"Let's go!" I shouted, raised my chopsticks and inserted them into the plate, wow, my favorite back pot meat, spicy, sweet, tender, Daddy's cooking skills are awesome, almost catching up with the chef of the five-star hotel.
I ate beautifully, Daddy and Uncle Hai were drinking, I was arguing to drink, Daddy didn't give it at first, and then he couldn't resist me, so he poured a little bit for me, I happily picked it up and poured it into my mouth, ah, it was so spicy, I stuck out my tongue and blew straight, I just felt that my throat seemed to be burning.
"If you don't want to drink, you have to drink, you know it's amazing." Daddy counted me down on the side, and Uncle Hai hurriedly fed me water, I didn't care about retorting and drank water, and it took me a long time to relieve, "How did I know this wine was so spicy." ”
"Look, you're still reasonable."
I ignored him, bowed my head and ate my delicacies. But I was thinking about where to find wine, and I remember that wine was delicious.
"Jingle bell ----" phone rang without warning, we were all stunned, who would call at this time, no one knew our home phone, generally to find dad is to call the company's phone.
Daddy went to answer the phone suspiciously, I saw that his expression was getting more and more solemn, Uncle Hai also passed, Daddy whispered a few words to him quickly, and his face immediately became so dignified, did something happen? I put down my chopsticks and snuggled over, "Daddy! I shouted uneasily.
"It's fine!" Daddy touched my head, forced a smile to comfort me, and then called Qin You, "Qin You, I and your Uncle Hai are going out, you take your sister upstairs to watch TV, don't go anywhere, lock the door, don't open it when anyone comes, do you understand?" Daddy explained quickly but forcefully, Qin You nodded vigorously, and pulled me upstairs.
"Daddy---" I looked back at Daddy, very scared, I have never seen Daddy's expression, has something happened? Is Daddy in danger?
"First Sight! Your hand! Qin You called me, and I realized that the remote control in my hand had been dismantled into several pieces by me, and the sharp edge of the plastic had scratched my hand with a bloody mark, but I didn't feel any pain at all.
"Qin You, do you think Daddy will be fine? He's going to be fine, right? I looked at Qin You eagerly, seeking this assurance.
"No, Uncle will be fine!" Qin You nodded very hard and said to me, it was more like he was talking to himself, it turned out that he was not sure.
I don't know what's going on on TV, my thinking is very messy, who will be looking for Daddy, what will it be, it must be very serious, is it a company's business, we are operating legally, even Mayor Chen is a friend of Daddy, what will happen? Could it be those things that Daddy used to do? He's been gone for two or three years, and he's been looking for it a long time ago, so can he wait until now?
The more I think about it, the more scared I become, I'm afraid that something will happen to my father, I only have him, in this world he gave me home, gave me warmth and love, without him, my world would collapse, there would be nothing, nothing!
"First sight, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, it's okay!" Qin You rushed over and hugged me, I felt his arm trembling, but he hugged me so firmly and told me not to be afraid, my tears flowed out at once, "Brother, brother!" "I hugged this little boy back, his little arms were so solid and warm, like a mountain, like a tree, like my brother.
Outside the window, the sound of firecrackers, fireworks exploded in the air, lighting up the night sky, such a lively night, a lively year, inside the house, Qin You and I quietly hugged each other, uneasy, like a burning thread crackling and tearing my nerves.
Daddy, you need to come back soon!
