Time flies, today is the Chinese New Year's Eve, the old year is coming to an end! The new year is about to begin. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Eight o'clock in the morning.
Fang Cheng had already gotten up, and he moved his body to do some light exercises.
Mom and Dad are still at home, and he shouldn't be too intense, otherwise the fist style will be enough to scare them.
"Huh, Xiaocheng, what are you practicing?"
Chen Rong walked out of the room, and when she came back from vacation, she saw Fang Cheng practicing martial arts for the first time, and in the past, Fang Cheng practiced martial arts after Chen Rong and Fang Wendao went to work.
Today's New Year, you don't need to go to work.
"I'm practicing martial arts, Mom. ”
Fang Cheng smiled and said briefly, he had to slowly show his strength, and give his parents a preventive shot first.
"It's good, Xiaocheng, we won't eat in the morning, there is bread on the sofa table, if you're hungry, eat some first, I'll go paste the couplet." ”
Chen Rong stood at the edge of the living room, watching her son twist his body into a strange shape with a few punches to the left, and a sense of relief came naturally.
Even if practicing martial arts will not be fruitful, getting up early to exercise is good for the body.
She clicked her lips and turned to the door, where the shoe cabinet was filled with the couplets she had bought yesterday.
Paste couplets.
Chen Rong opened the door with a roll of scotch tape.
Chen Rong is very satisfied with this couplet, she picked it for a while yesterday, and the upper and lower couplets: smooth sailing, good every year, all the best.
Horizontal batch: say goodbye to the old and welcome the new.
In addition, there is a big word "Fu".
Throughout the morning, Chen Rong was constantly busy, either cleaning and tidying up the room, or preparing ingredients for lunch, according to custom, lunch should be very hearty.
After Fang Cheng finished practicing martial arts, he took a shower and helped his mother do some housework.
One o'clock in the afternoon.
The sun hung in the sky, and the warm glow spilled from the window next to the dining table, and also shone into Fang Cheng's heart.
Bright, warm and leisurely.
That's what I want!
"Open the meal!"
Chen Rong took the last dish, put it on the table, and rushed into the kitchen to wash her hands.
"Son, do you want to drink some wine?" Fang Wendao's slightly old face was also full of interest, and he glanced at Fang Cheng.
"Dad, I won't drink it"
"Good, good. Although his son doesn't drink with him, Fang Wendao is still very happy: "It's not good to drink, it's good not to drink." ”
"Drink what, eat quickly. Chen Rong echoed on the side, she didn't want her son to drink.
"Hey, that's what I said. ”
Fang Wendao smiled, picked up the chopsticks, and the three of them enjoyed the delicious food of this table.
Last night, I returned to the north, and now I am in the east, and I am already strong, and I have no worries.
In the afternoon, Fang Cheng accompanied his parents to watch TV at home, and in the evening, he had to go to his grandfather's house, and the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was also the most annoying time for Fang Cheng this year.
As night fell, Fang Wendao stretched and said loudly: "Ready to go, change your clothes quickly." ”
Chen Rong glanced at Fang Wendao: "What's the hurry, isn't it too early?"
"Ahem, go early, Xiaocheng, it's time to change your clothes, go to your grandfather's house." ”
Fang Wendao saw that Chen Rong was in a bad mood, so he scolded Fang Cheng with a haha, as long as his son changed his clothes and was ready to go, were he afraid that his mother would not follow?
"Alas. Go, go, go. ”
Sure enough, Chen Rong threw her phone on the sofa, checked the water and electricity at home, and put on the green Burberry windbreaker that Fang Cheng bought for her.
"En?" Fang Wendao raised his eyebrows, "Wife, you won't be cold in this, right?"
"No, it's a 10-minute drive anyway. Chen Rong gave him an angry look.
Fang Cheng smiled on the side: "I've changed it!"
"Ahh ”
Chen Rong looked at Fang Cheng carefully up and down, as if she was a little unfamiliar with her son, when did Xiaocheng wear clothes so tasteful and temperamental?
Seeing that his mother's attention had shifted, Fang Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, and after being busy, he packed up the things he wanted to take, picked them up, changed into shoes and stood at the door.
"Hey, you know how to behave!" Fang Wendao nodded with satisfaction.
Lifting things, Fang Cheng took the lead, out of the community, and stood on the side of the road.
He had already booked an online car-hailing car just now, otherwise he would have to wait for the bus, and the taste of the car in the cold wind hunting was not pleasant.
The car has arrived.
The white-gloved driver took the things Fang Cheng was carrying with a smile on his face and put them in the trunk.
Can you not be happy, the price has more than tripled today!
Originally, it was five or six kilometers and a ten-minute drive, and it was about 30 yuan, but today's trip is estimated to cost more than 100 yuan.
After pulling this order, he is also going home.
Chen Rong and Fang Wendao walked out of the community slowly, and Fang Cheng waved his hand.
"The car you called?" Chen Rong looked at Fang Cheng in surprise and suspicion, "It's expensive for the New Year, why don't you take the bus?"
Fang Cheng, who heard this, his eyes were hot, and he endured the tumbling emotions and said: "The car I booked in advance is not so expensive, parents should get in the car quickly." ”
There used to be a broken loaf of bread in the house, but it was sold a year ago.
He secretly made up his mind that next year's New Year, he will add a car to his family, so that his parents can travel conveniently, and he no longer has to go to work and squeeze the bus.
"Get in the car. ”
Fang Wendao observed the eyes of the special car driver, and saw the words "online car-hailing" engraved on the door, so he didn't say much, and sat in the back seat with Chen Rong.
It was Chinese New Year's Eve, and the streets could occasionally be heard with firecrackers and few vehicles.
Eleven minutes, the family of three arrived at Fang Cheng's grandparents' house.
This is a high-rise community that has only been built in recent years, and the old couple sold their old house as a down payment and lived here with Fang Cheng's second uncle.
Fang Cheng carried the things taken out of the trunk and followed behind his parents, and the family of three quickly walked to the unit door of Fang Cheng's grandparents' house.
Fang Wendao said as he pressed the electric lock on the door of the unit.
"The password is 2015, right?"
"Drop!"
The unit is unlocked with a click.
A family of three walked in, got on the elevator, and went up to the eleventh floor.
Fang Cheng knocked on the security door, and after a while, a young man about twenty years old opened it, glanced at Fang Cheng's three people, and said with a smile: "You guys are here." ”
The person in front of him is Fang Yuanhua, who is from Fang Cheng's second uncle's family, who got a scholarship at Imperial Capital University, is about 1.74 meters tall, not fat but born with a round face, and has inherited the demeanor of the second uncle in life, mean and proud.
Fang Cheng's second uncle is called Fang Wenxue, and he ranks second among the three siblings.
The main reason why Chen Rong was reluctant to come to Fang Cheng's grandparents' house was Fang Wenxue.
Fang Wenxue didn't study much at the beginning, so he chose to do business, and he made many friends and had a small business in Linjiang City.
Although the business is not big, Fang Wenwen has a very high spirit, and he is just scathing, and he always looks down on this and that.
Every time he had a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, he pretended to be the boss, pointing at the other party's father and saying some bitter words for office workers.
"Yes. ”
Fang Cheng glanced at Fang Yuanhua coldly, he was basically polite, uncles and aunts were not called?
This glance frightened Fang Yuanhua.
His face shook, and the gaze of his cousin in front of him, as cold as ice cubes, penetrated his heart. Fang Yuanhua didn't want to stay longer, turned around and walked into the living room, and shouted, "Mom, Dad, they're here." ”
At this moment, Fang Wendao also frowned.
A middle-aged and somewhat bald man walked out, his body was fat, it was Fang Cheng's second uncle, Fang Wenwen laughed: "Big brother, sister-in-law, come in, come in." ”
Even if he doesn't look down on his eldest brother and sister-in-law in his heart, he still has to have superficial skills.
"We want to come in, but the slippers don't come in?" Chen Rong said unhappily.
When he came to the door to prepare for the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, he was made uncomfortable by Fang Yuanhua's child.
"You", "they", these two words are too harsh.
Fang Wenwen sneered: "Didn't Yuan Hua give it to you? Here, the slippers ......"
As he spoke, he took out three pairs of slippers from the back of the shoe cabinet on the side, put them on the ground, smiled and exchanged a few words with Fang Wendao, and then looked at Fang Cheng.
"Xiaocheng, how is it at school?"
"It's good, thank you second uncle for your concern. Fang Cheng replied politely.
A family of three walked into the living room, and a row of sofas sat from left to right: Fang Yuanhua, Fang Cheng's second aunt, uncle, and Fang Cheng's cousin and cousin.
Fang Cheng walked into the living room and looked at his uncle with a smile.
"Uncle? ”
It was a middle-aged man with a capable spirit, and he could vaguely see the handsomeness of his youth from his angular face.
Fang Cheng's aunt Fang Wenmin is a junior high school teacher, and her uncle Hua Liang is a director-level executive of a company, and his life is quite nourishing.
They always wanted a son, but unfortunately gave birth to two girls, so they gave up the idea of having another child.
Hua Haiyan is their eldest daughter, who is twenty-two years old, and there is a full six years of difference between her youngest daughter Hua Haihui.
Cousin Hua Haihui is in her first year of high school, right?
Fang Cheng glanced at his cousin Hua Haihui, his forehead was slightly covered by Qi bangs, revealing the lovely face below, continuing his uncle Hua Liang's excellent genes.
"Your aunt and your grandmother are busy in the kitchen. Uncle Hua Liang looked at Fang Cheng and said with a smile: "Xiao Cheng has changed a lot in the new year, and he has a temperament when he goes to college." ”
After speaking, he glanced at his two daughters.
Cousin Hua Haiyan got up from the sofa and looked at Fang Cheng's father and Fang Cheng's mother: "Uncle, happy New Year." ”
Hua Haihui also grinned, echoed and said Happy New Year, and then ran to Fang Cheng's side: "Cousin, where did you buy these clothes, wow, famous brand!"
She saw the brand of Fang Cheng's clothes with sharp eyes.
Several adults chatted, Hua Haihui took Fang Cheng's arm, and chattered to let Fang Cheng talk about college life, Hua Haiyan on the side barely smiled at the corner of her mouth, looking at her sister and cousin Fang Cheng talking and laughing.
She was very irritable and worried.
She went to school a year early, and now she has graduated for half a year, and she has not found a satisfactory job, and finally a tax bureau sent an interview invitation, and because she has no job for half a year after graduation, she is about to be brushed down.
She was waiting for a notice from the tax office on whether to let her go for an interview.
I don't have a good mood for the New Year.
Fang Cheng's eyes were smiling, and Hua Haihui's excitement made him feel young.
"Yes, the university is very free, you can do whatever you want. Hearing Fang Cheng's words, Hua Haihui grinned and said, "Is it okay to fall in love?"
"Ahem, of course you can, but you have to do a good job underground. Fang Cheng glanced at his uncle Hua Liang, who was chatting with his mother, and said in a low voice.
"Wow. ”
Hua Haihui's cute big eyes lit up, and she was a little expectant.
Fang Cheng looked at it and laughed: "You are so young, why are you in a hurry?"
"Cut, if you don't start early, the good goods have been snatched away!" Hua Haihui pouted, there were two or three pairs in their freshman class.
