Chen Fan booked a room at a hotel near the street, and the family watched the grand Christmas parade from the balcony of the room.

The grandfather in the wheelchair looked in a trance, as if he was recalling something.

Chen Fan bent down and asked softly in Chinese, "Thinking about the Spring Festival again?" ”

Grandpa's cloudy eyes began to shine, and he said, "Yes, I miss my relatives every festive season, and now I hope to go back to China for the Spring Festival one day......"

When it comes to the Spring Festival, my grandfather seems to be dozens of years younger: "The gongs and drums are noisy, the firecrackers are ringing, people are wearing new clothes, and every household is decorated with lights......"

"Go to the temple fair, set off firecrackers......"

Chen Fan didn't bother his grandfather's good memories, and Emmel on the side asked him softly what the two were talking about just now.

Chen Fan told her that her grandfather missed his hometown, the mountains and rivers of his hometown, and the Spring Festival in his hometown.

Emmel's eyes flashed and she said in surprise: "My dear, when are we going to China for the most authentic Spring Festival?" ”

Overseas Chinese gather in places that also hold some activities every Spring Festival to celebrate the arrival of the New Year, and Emel once watched the lion dance, which she thought was very beautiful.

Chen Fan replied: "I will definitely fulfill your wish, I have never been back when I am so old." ”

"However, this will not be possible until I retire."

The professor's idea of letting Chen Fan change to play in the front midfield can only end in vain, lacking Van Persie's frontcourt fulcrum, if Chen Fan's position is moved back, who will tear apart the opponent's defense to complete the goal?
