Chapter 18: Happy New Year!

"In every street and alley, in everyone's mouth, the first thing they say when they meet is congratulations to ······." No matter where he goes, the song is always played online, and now it's the Nth time Wen Li has heard it.

"Mom~ How long will it take to go home?" Wen Li, who had been shopping in the supermarket for an afternoon, said impatiently.

"Hey, how long has it been since I've been here, Mom will talk to Aunt Liu for a while, we haven't seen each other for a long time, you go to the snack area over there first, and Mom will come over to look for you later." After Li Li finished speaking, she continued to chat with the middle-aged woman in front of Wen Li.

Wen Li smiled politely, and then walked to his favorite puffed food area.

Looking at the shelves full of potato chips of all colors, Wen Li felt how happy it would be to be able to take them all home. With Wen Li with 'loving' eyes full of 'love' as he walked, he picked it up, and after a while, the shopping cart was piled up and almost couldn't be put down. I walked to the end of the shelf, and just as I was about to turn, I collided with another shopping cart.

"Ah~" Wen Li was suddenly hit and subconsciously screamed.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't see you." The person on the other side hurriedly said.

"It's okay... Shen Yi! Wen Li glanced up at the person opposite and unexpectedly found that it was Shen Yi.

"Wen Li!" Shen Yi was also shocked that he met Wen Li here.

"What, you're here to buy groceries too?" Wen Li asked with a smile.

"Well, I... I came with my mom, she went to buy meat, I wanted to buy some snacks and came over. Shen Yi replied.

"Me too, but my mom ran into an acquaintance and sent me over."

"Oh~ By the way, I heard that you did well in the final exam, and you were admitted to the experimental class, and you scored 80 points in mathematics!"

"How do you know?" Wen Li is strange.

"Didn't our classmates post news, I saw it too." Shen Yi's explanation of the weakness of the heart.

"I said! Yes, I didn't expect to do so well in the exam myself. Wen Li stroked his hair embarrassedly.

"You work so hard, and you should do so well in the exam." Shen Yi said with a smile.

"Hey, hey!" Wen Li smiled, but after laughing, the topic ended, and a trace of embarrassment filled the air.

"My mom should have finished buying meat, I'll go find her first." Shen Yi broke the embarrassment.

"Oh, okay, go ahead, I'll see what else to eat." Wen Li replied with a smile.

After Shen Yi finished speaking, he walked towards the meat food area, Wen Li looked in the direction of Shen Yi, and vaguely saw a figure that felt familiar, but it was too far away Wen Li couldn't see clearly, so he was ready to continue shopping in the snack area.

"Look at whom, watch it for so long!" Li Li suddenly said from behind Wen Li.

"I'll go, Mom, when are you coming, I'm scared to death." Wen Li was frightened by Li Li and blurted out.

"It's not like you're having a lot of fun chatting with people, I'm not you, I can't see others chatting." Li Li said this deliberately.

"How can I!" Wen Li said indignantly.

"Hey, that was your classmate just now?" Li Li asked.

"Yes, our class is a top student, I can score 80 points in mathematics this time, and someone has half of the credit!"

"It's so powerful, then why didn't you invite anyone to our house to play!" Li Li said excitedly.

"People are usually going to study, how can they be like your daughter who eats and plays all day long?" Wen Li self-underdog.

"You'll admit it now."

"I said you're done talking about it for the rest of the day, when are we going to 'go home'? Today is the thirtieth anniversary of the Chinese New Year's Eve. Wen Li asked helplessly.

"Isn't there your dad cooking at home, what's the hurry!" Li Li said and glanced at the snacks on the shelves.

"I really don't want to go shopping!" Wen Li said angrily.

"Okay, okay, go back, really, people won't open the door after the New Year!" Li Li looked disappointed.

Wen Li didn't say anything, pushed the shopping cart and went to the cashier to line up. It may be the last day of the year, the supermarket is full of thieves today, and the payment queue is almost in the sales area.

Finally, Wen Li and the others lined up, and after paying, Wen Li went home with two large bags full of things.

"I'm tired, let me sit down and rest for a while!" As soon as Wen Li got home, he put his things on the ground and went straight to the sofa.

"Buy such a thing, why don't you call me and I'll pick you up." Wen Hai came out of the kitchen and carried the things that Wen Li had placed at the door to the kitchen.

"It's all people, there's no parking space at all, and you can't get in." Li Li took off her coat and said.

"Wen Li, you changed your shoes and then lay on the sofa, they all stained the sofa!" Li Li looked at Wen Li who was spread out on the sofa, and started to find fault again.

"Oh." Wen Hai put the things he bought back into the refrigerator.

"Wen Li went to wash his hands and helped his parents make dumplings later." Wen Hai said as he cleaned up the refrigerator.

"Ah~ Can you rest for a while?" Wen Li said reluctantly.

"It's still early to eat, good, let's watch the party directly after wrapping up now."

"Okay~" Wen Li reluctantly went to the bathroom to wash his hands.

Making dumplings is not difficult for Wen Li, this technique is like being born with it. When Wen Li was a child, he learned how his father made dumplings, after all, he ate more.

The fillings are Wen Li's favorite three fresh fillings, watching the dough and fillings become 'cat ears' in his hands, and then thinking about the happy taste when eating them, Wen Li became more and more excited.

"Okay, so much should be enough to eat, pack up and let's eat, the Spring Festival Gala is about to start." Wen Hai looked at the full refrigerator drawer and said, the filling had just run out.

"Quick, Wen Li will take the rag and wipe the table." Li Li supported Wen Li.

After Wen Li went to the kitchen to get a rag and wiped the table, Wen Hai began to stir-fry, and Li Li turned on the fire to heat the stewed soup again.

Not long after, Wen Li heard the sound of the gas stove turning off, and at the same time the spatula and the pot collided with a crisp sound, and hurriedly ran to the kitchen, just as Wen Hai finished loading the dishes.

"Wen Li will bring the dishes out, let's start the meal." Wen Hai handed the plate to Wen Li.

After all the dishes were served, Wenhai announced that the meal would be opened, and the Spring Festival Gala also began.

Wen Li gnawed on the pig's trotters while complaining that the beginning of this year's Spring Festival Gala was not good-looking. At this time, Dad would habitually call Grandma, even though they would go to Grandma's house tomorrow.

"Mom, have you eaten? Happy New Year! Wen Hai's habitual opening remarks overshadowed the voice of the Spring Festival Gala.

"Xiaoli and Wen Li are eating, do you want to talk to them?" After Wenhai finished speaking, he turned on the hands-free of the mobile phone.

"Mom and Dad~ Happy New Year, are you eating?"

"Eating, eating, Wen Li?"

"Grandma, I'm having dinner, we'll go to your place tomorrow!" Wen Li shouted at the phone.

"Okay, I'll wait for you at home!"

"Okay Mom, you and Dad have dinner first, we will be here at noon tomorrow, and we will call you then."

"Okay, see you tomorrow!"

"See you tomorrow!" After Wen Hai hung up the phone, the phone rang immediately.

Wen Hai knew that this time it was his parents' friends, and he didn't have anything to do, so Wen Li took care of himself and gnawed on pig's trotters and ribs.

Finally stayed up until the early hours of the morning, the countdown began on the TV, Wen Li yawned, and was finally about to be liberated.

"Three, two, one, Happy New Year!" The hosts on the TV shouted together, and Wen Li also followed them to say Happy New Year to their parents.

Then, I heard the prompt sound of the mobile phone, and Shen Yi sent himself a happy New Year on QQ, and at the same time, Jiang Yu, Zhu Ying and Wen Li also had a happy New Year message in the three groups.

Wen Li posted an expression in the group and then went back to Shen Yi to say "Happy New Year".

The lights were bright outside, but the sound of firecrackers could not be heard, and Wen Li could not feel the atmosphere of the New Year when he was a child. It seems that the Chinese New Year is only left to watch the traditional project of watching the Spring Festival Gala.

"Wen Li is hungry or not, Dad will cook dumplings for you."

"Hungry, Dad, hurry up!" Hearing this, Wen Li's trace of sadness disappeared in an instant.

Wen Li went to sleep after eating the dumplings, and I didn't watch the rest of the Spring Festival Gala program, anyway, I can watch the replay tomorrow when I go to my grandmother's house.

Wen Li was woken up early the next morning, because his grandmother's house was far away, so he had to leave early.

When I went downstairs, I happened to run into Jiang Yu's family, and I guess I was going to my grandparents' house, Wen Li thought so.

"Happy New Year, Uncle and Aunt!" Wen Li greeted obediently.

"Wen Li is also a happy new year! Come, Auntie will give you a red envelope~" As she spoke, Jiang Yu's mother took out a red envelope and handed it to Wen Li.

"Wen Li can't ask for it, it's so big, why are you embarrassed to ask for a red envelope!" Before Wen Li could react, Li Li refused first, and then it was a mediocre red envelope pulling drama.

"Okay, okay, just take it, Wen Li quickly said thank you." After speaking, Li Li put the red bar in her pocket.

"Thank you, Auntie!" Wen Li pretended to be happy. knew that as soon as my mother's words came out, the red envelope would not fall into my hands.

"You're going to grandma's house?" The adults chatted as usual, and Jiang Yu also chatted with Wen Li.

"yes, aren't you?" Wen Li replied.

"No, the project that my parents are working on is not over yet, so I will follow them to S City." Jiang Yu said.

"Ah, wouldn't I not have seen you before school started?"

"What, can't bear me?" Jiang Yu teased.

"It's not, it's just a casual question." Wen Li said arrogantly.

"Okay, for this miss of yours, I will definitely try to come back early!" Jiang Yu said firmly.

"I'm not speaking Mandarin, why is this still misunderstood!" Wen Li looked at Jiang Yu's evil smile and hurriedly explained.

"Okay, okay, I know, wait at home for me to come back." After Jiang Yu finished speaking, he got into the car, and Kong Liuwen Li was alone in the room outside and rolled his eyes at the air.
