Chapter Ninety-Eight: In the World
Chinese New Year's Eve, night, firecrackers, noise...... The lights are on in every house, and Yuan Tianqin's house is no exception, all the lights are turned on, the couplets have long been pasted, the red blessing character is pasted upside down on the door, Huang Kai is busy in the kitchen, and Wang Xiaobai is on the phone: "Dad, everything is fine at home, right?" Will my sister be gone? Don't let my mother be too tired, I'm fine, celebrate the New Year with my classmates, no shortage of money, no shortage of money, I'm grown up, I can earn some if I can work, I can earn some by myself, you pay attention to your physical ......"
Chinese people have a complex of going home for the New Year, as if they are not with their families, there is no point in living this year, Wang Xiaobai has this feeling, a little regret not going home, can only call home to greet the New Year, listen to the phone on the other end of the home is very lively, sister-in-law came to the house again, sister is making noise, her mother is shouting, the grandfather and the two talked for about half an hour, and said a few words to his mother and sister-in-law, Wang Xiaobai reluctantly hung up the phone.
The firecrackers crackled outside the window, and the WeChat prompt sound of the mobile phone was also Didi, and it was said that there were all kinds of New Year's greetings, and there were red envelopes in the group, Chen Jianbin sent a WeChat, saying that he was going home on vacation, Wang Xiaobai asked him if he saw Li Xiaojing, Chen Jianbin replied that Li Xiaojing did not go home for the New Year, and it was said that her mother was going to settle in Shanghai after divorcing her father......
Wang Xiaobai looked at the window silently, Ding Dong, Xin Lei sent WeChat, there are only four words Happy New Year, Wang Xiaobai replied with four words, and then it was the group of their class, the dingdong kept ringing, Wang Xiaobai clicked on it and took a look, all the special codes are red envelopes, and they are not small, a hundred are small packets, Wang Xiaobai found that there is nothing bad about studying philosophy, at least the classmates are rich people, and they can grab more red envelopes during the New Year, especially Qin Ge, it is simply a fight for wealth, and the red envelopes have been sent out.
Wang Xiaobai grabbed a few hundred red envelopes after a while, sent them back to the group, put the mobile phone back in his pocket, Wang Xiaobai went to help Huang Kai make dumplings, and he couldn't just let Huang Kai work alone during the New Year, when he came to the kitchen, Huang Kai cut all the dishes that should be made, and was stirring the dumpling filling, Huang Laoqi was lying on the side and waiting to eat.
Seeing Wang Xiaobai coming down from upstairs, Huang Kai smiled at him and said: "Xiaobai, what are you doing, I will do this work alone, you go out to play, watch TV, grab red envelopes or something!" ”
"It's boring, there's nothing to watch on TV, red envelopes...... Just grab it and have to send it, buddy can't afford it, besides, you can't be alone for the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, buddy can do something to help do something, by the way, did you call home? ”
"I hit it, I just fought, my family's harvest is good this year, my grandmother's illness is also light, the family owes a lot of debts, I just transferred a thousand yuan to my father, not much, that's what it means."
"Damn, don't you buy a laptop?"
"Don't worry, it's a day earlier and a day later, the school has a room, and we will work on holidays, and we don't have time to study!"
Wang Xiaobai knows how difficult it is for Huang Kai to make money, it is really a piece of anise saved, he does what others don't do, he can't wait to break his leg one day, not only to earn his tuition and living expenses for the next semester, but also to send a thousand yuan to his family, what perseverance and how much hardship he has to endure, Wang Xiaobai sighed and said: "Huang Kai, buddy has never admired anyone in his life except for my master, I really admire you!" ”
"What do you admire me, we are just a child in the village, if you can't endure hardship anymore, then it's nothing, Xiaobai, you always think I'm bitter, I really don't feel bitter, get used to it, you say admire me, in fact, I admire you the most, I know so much, and there is a great master, you must have suffered a lot if you can learn like this, right?"
Wang Xiaobai remembered the three years of learning Taoism from Wang Laodao, there was really no day or night, and he jumped into the river in the winter...... smiled bitterly and said, "If you don't say that our brothers are getting along, they are all bitter." ”
With Huang Kai accompanying him for the New Year, Wang Xiaobai will not feel so lonely and desolate, Huang Kai is the same, if there is no Wang Xiaobai, he will suffer more, the brothers talked, and began to make dumplings, Northeast children will basically make dumplings, wrap a face, put it aside, and then wrap, at this time the doorbell suddenly rang.
Yuan Tianqin is back? Wang Xiaobai opened the door curiously, and when he opened the door, he saw Qin Ge standing at the door with a big bag and a small bag, Wang Xiaobai frowned, Qin Ge left yesterday, saying that he was going home for the New Year, why did he come back again? Qin Ge looked at Wang Xiaobai with a grudge, and said, "What are you staring at, haven't you seen a handsome guy?" Hurry up and carry the things in my hand, and then follow me downstairs, there is still something in the car! ”
"Hey, didn't you go home for the New Year, don't stay home in the Chinese New Year's Eve, why are you running to us here?"
"Don't talk nonsense, come down with me and get something!"
Wang Xiaobai took Qin Ge's things and followed him downstairs, there was a Toyota parked downstairs, Qin Ge opened the trunk, there were several large cardboard boxes of things inside, Zhang Luo and the two of them moved up, and it took three trips to finish moving, and when he returned home after moving, Wang Xiaobai looked at a pile of things and was confused.
Qin Ge entered the house, took off his clothes as if he were at home, and went into the kitchen to greet Huang Kai and Huang Laoqi: ", do you two still make dumplings?" Wrap more, buddy likes to eat celery filling...... Gotcha, don't wrap it up yet, come to Lao Huang, come to Lao Qi, buddies send New Year's gifts, all come, all come......"
Regardless of dragging Huang Kai and greeting Huang Laoqi, Wang Xiaobai was a little stunned by him, and watched him coldly, Qin Ge dragged Huang Kai to the living room, took out a notebook bag from the cardboard box, threw it to him and said, "Ah, the notebook you miss in your heart!" ”
Huang Kai was also a little stunned, took it out and saw that the latest Apple notebook was at least more than 10,000 yuan, and he was startled and said, "I...... I don't dare take something as valuable as yours! ”
Qin Ge didn't pay attention to him, and threw Wang Xiaobai an Apple mobile phone and a lighter, and said: "Buddy doesn't know what you like, just buy some casually, make do with it, the rest are tobacco, alcohol and food, by the way, I also bought a few grilled chickens for Lao Qi, and we will spend the Chinese New Year's Eve together." ”
Huang Kai panicked and wanted to return the notebook, Wang Xiaobai gave him a look, and asked him not to talk about it yet, he could see that Qin Ge was in a very bad mood, pretending to be a forced smile, Wang Xiaobai patted Qin Ge's shoulder and said, "Dude has accepted your gift, come and help us make dumplings!" ”
The cigarette is Chinese, the wine is Moutai, and there are a bunch of delicious and delicious drinks, all of which Qin Ge picked up the most expensive ones to buy, and there is even a carton of firecrackers and fireworks, it seems that he is really going to celebrate the New Year here.
It is a very lucky thing for people to have friends by their side when they are in a bad mood, Qin Ge's depression has been alleviated, it is the first time he has heard of the grievances between Wang Xiaobai and Huang Laoqi, and after hearing it, he was surprised and asked, "Is it really fake?" He turned his head and asked Huang Laoqi: "Old Seven, is what Wang Xiaobai said true?" ”
Huang Laoqi snorted, leaned against the wall like a person, and said to Qin Ge: "Smoke...... Come on, come root! ”
The secret that Huang Laoqi is Huang Xian is only known to the three of them, but it is the first time to listen to Huang Laoqi, especially Qin Ge, who was startled, and then excited, took out a cigarette and lit it for Huang Laoqi, Huang Laoqi took a puff of cigarette as much as a person, and said to Qin Ge: "Hmm...... Well...... Hmmm! ”
Qin Ge couldn't cry or laugh, Huang Kai smiled innocently, and his ability to accept Huang Laoqi's miracle was much stronger than Qin Ge...... After wrapping the dumplings and stir-frying six dishes, the three of them plus Huang Laoqi set up a table in the living room, the TV was on, the lights were on, and they were beaming.
The custom in the northeast is to eat dinner first at Chinese New Year's Eve, cook dumplings at twelve o'clock, serve on the table, Qin Ge opened a bottle of Moutai, the three of them opened and drank, Qin Ge still sighed, but it could be seen that the mood was very bad, Wang Xiaobai couldn't help but sigh, looked at Qin Ge and said: "If there is anything to hold back, just say it, this is no outsider, don't hold yourself out of trouble for the New Year!" ”
Qin Ge froze suddenly, staring at the wine glass in front of him, tears suddenly fell, and said aggrievedly: "My dad told me before that he would accompany me for the New Year this year, I am very happy to prepare, I think we can spend the New Year together this year, you don't know, I don't see my dad a few times a year, and I haven't been together for the New Year for a few years......"
"Why?" Wang Xiaobai asked curiously.
"My mother died early, I died when I was nine years old, leaving me and my dad, just a year later he found me a stepmother, and gave birth to a daughter, I was not sensible at that time, I felt that my dad was betraying my mother by looking for a daughter-in-law so quickly, so it was very unpleasant, no way, my dad bought me a house alone, I have lived by myself since I was in junior high school, there is everything at home, nanny, driver, just no parents, I thought my dad didn't want me anymore, so I went to death, hoping to get his attention......"
"Over the years, my dad hasn't spent the New Year with me, it's all spent with my stepmother, a family, what am I? This year, I was supposed to accompany me, but a phone call from my mother's woman left again, and when I left, she gave me a card guiltily and asked me to buy something I liked, hahaha...... Others say that I am the second generation of the rich, and my special mother is actually an orphan, Wang Xiaobai, if you don't take me in, I will have to stay at home in a daze! ”
Speaking of this, Qin Ge couldn't help but lie on the table and cry, crying very sadly, Wang Xiaobai and Huang Kai were also sad to hear, and didn't know how to persuade him, at this time, a song came from the TV, which clearly floated into the ears of the three of them, "Hanging on the face is a mask, rumors are sharper than knives and arrows, there are too many slaves under the feet of money, how deep the human heart is, the soul is on the run and has nowhere to go, the reality is like a wheel, I am an ant, and who is alive in the world is not like a purgatory......"
Wang Xiaobai looked at Huang Kai, and then at Qin Ge, who was crying, and felt very unhappy, patted Qin Ge's shoulder, and said softly: "In the world, who lives like a purgatory?" ”
In 2018, Lao Qi is here to wish all friends, in the new year, good luck, great ambitions, family harmony, all the best, and I wish our fate a long time, thank you for your support, Lao Qi will work harder in the new year, and strive to write well, Happy New Year!
