The morning of nine o'clock in winter is dry and crisp, and the sun shines warmly, as if to dispel all the cold, and make people's hearts full of sunshine.

Xu Zhen and Xu Lan dried their clothes, basked in the sun upstairs for a while, chatted for a while, and then went downstairs.

The elders were chatting, Xu Zhen glanced at his mobile phone, and secretly went back to his room, today is Sunday, tomorrow he will have class, and there will be no time to meet in the next week.

Xu Lan glanced at the person who thought that no one knew about her return to the room, shook her head with a smile, and said to Lu Wanrou: "Aunt and they will also come back today, it must be very lively." ”

Lu Wanrou asked, "The eldest sister and the fourth sister are all back, right?" ”

Xu Jialin said: "It should be, there are many people today, do you want to move another table back?" ”

Xu Yu and Xu Cheng had already gone out to buy groceries, and the others only said that they wanted to take it, but let the two of them come back and get it again.

Xu Jialin smiled, he was still upright and middle-aged, and he did things normally, so he got up and said, "I'll go get it, Zhenzhen, you go and get the chair, what about Zhenzhen?" ”

Xu Lan silently lit a wax for her little sister, and was arrested as soon as she went upstairs to chat with her boyfriend, and calmly covered for her, "Well, it's time to go to the toilet, I'll go with my uncle, sister, just take it twice." ”

Xu Wei was not happy to run twice, but when she saw her sister's eyes, she got up and followed out, and when she got to no one, she asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?" ”

Xu Lan glanced at the person in front of him and whispered: "Xiao Zhenzhen must be talking to my boyfriend, you are sure to go up and call her, it is not easy to have time for the New Year." ”

Xu Wei was quiet, to be honest, since she knew that Xu Zhen's boyfriend went to the United States, she really didn't pay attention to their affairs, and now when she heard the second sister say this, she asked a few more words, "How have they been lately?" That boy is back this year. ”

Xu Lan didn't talk to Jian Yan for a while, he chatted for half an hour about the last holiday, and said with a smile: "Well, it's good, I talked to him about the last time I called Zhen Zhen, polite and gentle, very good." ”

Xu Jialin heard them muttering and chatting in front of him, and asked casually, "What are you talking about?" So happy. ”

Xu Lan looked at the little uncle, the little uncle is in his forties, probably because of family reasons, he looks like he is just thirty-seven or eighteen, and his spirit is calm.

Xu Jialin has always been good to these nephews and nieces, Xu Lan likes him very much, and he feels more close than other elders, and he replied coquettishly: "Brother Cheng, they are coming, of course they are happy." ”

Xu Jialin looked at Xu Wei, and said like an old father reluctant to give up his daughter: "Weiwei grew up all of a sudden, alas." ”

Xu Lan stepped forward and hugged his arm affectionately, and said matter-of-factly: "This is a good thing, what is the sigh of uncle, you can give one less red envelope for the Chinese New Year in the future." ”

Xu Jialin looked at her with tears and laughter.

Xu Wei was also a little speechless.

Xu Lan was complacent, feeling that his words were really right, that is, he could have one less red envelope, but this was not the case, not only did he add one more red envelope every year in the future, but also added three after two years, which was a complete loss.

Xu Zhen, who didn't move things because of Xu Lan's help, was lying on the bed half-lying, looking at the person opposite, and whispered about today's events, what time did he get up, what did he do, what is the situation at home now, and when did Cheng Moyang and them come to this.

Jian Yan on the computer listened to her detailed statement and did not have any impatience, but felt very warm, and by the way, he thought about whether he would go to her house in the future.

After talking about the family affairs, Xu Zhen looked at him, "You have class tomorrow." ”

Jian Yan looked at her eyes that were a little resentful, chuckled, and said helplessly: "No way, you have to study hard every day, and then make money to support your family and marry your daughter-in-law." ”

Xu Zhen was amused by his words, and after a few jokes, he seriously instructed: "The weather over there has been changeable recently, you must pay more attention to your body, bring a coat when it is hot, otherwise it will be cold again, and you must eat on time." The latter sentence is very sonorous and powerful, and he was so busy with his studies earlier that he couldn't take care of his meals sometimes, so he was simply angry.

Jian Yan listened to her words and nodded with a smile, "Okay, I remember, make sure to eat on time every day." ”

Xu Zhen nodded with satisfaction, and chatted with him about the interesting things that happened during the New Year, until there was a shout outside the door and reluctantly turned off the video.

Xu Lan stood at the door with a smile on his face, his tone innocent and cunning, "Auntie, they are here, and my aunt asked me to call you, it's none of my business." ”

Xu Zhen sighed resentfully, now it is more than nine o'clock in the evening in the United States, and he will go to bed in a short time, and then he will have class the next day, and the next time he has time to video, it may have to be next weekend.

Seeing her like this, Xu Lan grabbed her shoulders and comforted her earnestly: "Don't pull your face, it's just a matter of going down, you can continue to chat after meeting someone for a while, isn't it, brother-in-law won't be gone for a few minutes." ”

Xu Zhen turned his head to look at her, felt that he didn't want to talk very much, and strode downstairs.

The first to come was the second aunt Xu Chunlan's family, four people, Xu Zhen politely and obediently said hello, and after taking the red envelope, he sat on the sofa and listened to them chat.

Xu Lan sat next to her, gossiped and asked in a low voice: "I really won't go back to the room, if you don't go back, your brother Yan will really be gone." ”

Xu Zhen turned his head and glanced at her, his eyes were a little cold, and the meaning was obvious, shut up the old lady.

Today's protagonist is Xu Wei, and the elders don't pay much attention to their other little ones, Xu Zhen felt bored when she heard it, and wanted to go back to the room first and then flirt with her boyfriend, but before she could think clearly, there was a car at the door again, it was Xu Chunhua's family.

Looking at the four people who entered the room, Xu Zhen was a little helpless, got up to say hello, polite and well-behaved, and had no flaws.

I don't know what's going on, this time Huang Feifei sat quietly and chatted after saying hello around, without any moths, which surprised Xu Zhen and Xu Lan.

"What's going on? So well-behaved this time? Xu Lan winked at Xu Zhen.

Xu Zhen spread his hands and said that he didn't know.

There are really many people in the hall, Li Lili asked Xu Lan and the juniors to go up to the living room on the second floor to play, don't keep getting in the way here.

Xu Lan They didn't want to listen to the elders They kept reminiscing about the past or gossiping, and they were happy to listen to the words, and more than a dozen people went up to the second floor, and the hall was empty all of a sudden.

Xu Lan looked at Huang Feifei, who was quietly playing with her mobile phone in the corner, put her arms around Pan Yeyu's neck, leaned into his ear and whispered, "What's wrong with her?" ”

Pan Yeyu, an eighteen-year-old boy, felt a little embarrassed to be held by his cousin so affectionately, pushed the person away slightly, and replied in a low voice: "I fell out of love." ”

Xu Lan knew it, and he didn't feel much in his heart, but he just sighed: "Sure enough, you have to go through things to grow up." ”

Pan Yeyu is in his third year of high school, busy with his studies, so he was able to have some free time during the Chinese New Year, and when he saw his cousin playing games next to him, he took out his mobile phone and said, "Cousin, I'm playing too." ”

Zhang Nianyu is the son of his second aunt Xu Chunlan, a freshman in high school this year, and when he heard him say this, he replied without hesitation: "Okay, my sentence is almost over, you wait a minute." ”

Xu Lan said with a smile: "I feel that you are here to play with pesticides." ”

Qian Siying said helplessly: "Since the holiday, he has been playing games at home every day, and he doesn't listen to what he says." ”

Xu Zhen and the others frowned a little when they heard this, they wouldn't be addicted.

Zhang Nianyu heard his sister say this, and defended: "How can I have it, it's just to play occasionally, and I can't bring a mobile phone at school, so I can only play at home." ”

Xu Zhen and they listened to the words, and the education rhetoric they had thought of silently stuffed back into their stomachs, you can't bring a mobile phone in school, it's still okay, and you don't have a chance to indulge in it, isn't it.

Pan Yeyu looked at his cousin on the side and invited: "Cousin, don't you play too." ”

Xu Cheng Computer Alliance, mobile phone pesticide, heard his words, and said indifferently: "Okay, I'll go up when Ah Yu is over." ”

The boys play games, the girls naturally chat, clothes, shoes, lipstick, cosmetics, celebrity gossip, as long as they are interested, they can chat happily, but several of them are still college students, and they always talk about their own school, which makes Huang Feifei, who originally wanted to join the chat, a little embarrassed.

The upstairs was in full swing, and the elders downstairs were also chatting happily, men, women and children, full of warmth.

At eleven o'clock, Cheng Moyang took his parents to the Xu family's compound on time, Xu Jiayu and Li Lili went out to greet them in person, and there were a lot of young people behind Xu Lan and them.

Cheng Moyang's parents are both on state salaries, and they have seen a lot of big battles, and they can deal with this situation as usual, so they exchanged a few words with Xu Jiayu and Li Lili and then followed into the house.

Xu Lan and Xu Zhen saw Qingxia, and as soon as she got out of the car, the two of them enthusiastically stepped forward to greet and play together, and the elders were even happier when they saw this.

Still the elders chatting downstairs, and the juniors playing on the second floor, Cheng Qingxia sighed in a low voice: "There are really many people in your family." ”

Xu Lan said proudly: "This is still little, the second grandfather and they haven't come, if they come, the family can't do it." "When they were young, Grandpa Xu and Grandpa they still celebrated the New Year together, and at that time, there were five or six tables at home, and now more than ten years have passed, and the number of tables should increase by three or four.

There are not many people in Cheng Qingxia's family, and when she heard her say "wow", she smiled and said, "Then you must have a lot of money every year." ”

Speaking of this, Xu Zhen and Xu Lan laughed, from childhood to adulthood, their New Year's money is one of the best in the class, because even if the number is not large, but the amount is large, when I was a child, my grandfather and they could get a lot of yuan each.

Cheng Qingxia remembered one thing, and suddenly said: "No wonder my brother's pockets are all stuffed with red envelopes today." ”

When Xu Zhen and Xu Lan heard her say this, they couldn't help laughing, their family, the red envelope was full of smiles, and the red envelope was bleeding profusely.
