Chinese New Year's Eve.

The first Chinese New Year's Eve after coming to Liangshan.

Early in the morning, Zuo Xiaoyou and Zhang Ayi and Zhang Acai, who were excited and did not sleep much, got up to clean the house, cut window flowers, paste Spring Festival couplets, and prepare the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.

On the other side, at the foot of the mountain, at the house of Zhang's butcher, with the assistance of the village chief, the villagers lined up to receive two catties of pork.

This is a benefit given to the villagers by Zuo Xiaoyou.

The villagers have a difficult life, and they can't eat a few bites of meat all year round, so they must always taste the taste of meat during the Chinese New Year.

A few days ago, almost all the people who went out to work in the village came back, and although they didn't earn a lot from working outside, it was much better than farming and hunting in this small mountain village.

It is precisely because of seeing the world of flowers outside that people who go out do not want to go back to live in the village. If it weren't for the fact that there are still old people and children in the mountain village, and their part-time work expenses outside are not enough to support them to go out with their families, perhaps this small mountain village would have become a deserted village long ago.

But every year during the Spring Festival, the village is still very lively.

The children's parents are back, and the children of the old people are back, all of them are safe, how good!

When the young men and women who had gone out to work returned to the village, they were very curious when they learned that a young strange man had come to the village. But Zuo Xiaoyou rarely goes down the mountain, and even if he goes down the mountain, he goes to the county and town to purchase daily necessities, or picks up the Zhang sisters to and from school.

When they went home for a reunion, the Zhang sisters had a winter vacation very unfortunately, so that the number of times they went down the mountain was even less. The number of times they have encountered Zuo Xiaoyou is also very rare, and for most of the people who come back, Zuo Xiaoyou is still a mysterious person.

But they know that Zuo Xiaoyou is a good person. This can be seen in the praise of family members and neighbors. In their absence, Zuo Xiaoyou helped the villagers a lot.

Today, in the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, each villager was given two pounds of pork for free, and their senses of the left and the right were better.

In the morning, the Zhang sisters happily went down the mountain with a lot of New Year's goods. They had to deliver New Year's goods to their mother and brother.

My father is gone. The younger brother is young and relies on his mother alone, and life at home is very difficult. Although their mother exchanged them for 20,000 yuan, they did not complain about their mother, but were grateful to their mother for selling them to Zuo Xiaoyou. If not, how could they live like they were dreaming?

The mother and younger brother of the Zhang sisters were both happy and ashamed to see the sisters bring so many New Year's goods to visit them.

"Ayi, Acai, is the brother of the Zuo family okay with you?" Although I have asked many times, every time the daughters come back, the mother can't help but ask.

"Mom. My brother is very good to us, don't worry. The two sisters nodded one after another, and then Zhang Ayi took out a big red envelope.

"What is this?" The mother was puzzled.

"This is a red envelope from my brother to my mother." Zhang Ayi said: "My brother said that it is not easy for my mother, and it is the New Year, so I will send a red envelope to celebrate it." ”

"Brother, this is your New Year's money." Ah Cai also took out a red envelope, but this red envelope was much thinner.

When the boy saw the red envelope, he happily snatched it. When I opened it, I immediately cheered: "Ah! One hundred! ”

"So much!?" The mother exclaimed in surprise and hurriedly said, "Ah Niu, you are still young." You don't need so much money, take it and your mother will help you save it. ”

"I don't!" Zhang Aniu ran out with a red envelope: "This is from my brother-in-law." ”

"Ah Niu! Ah Niu! You want to be angry Mom! "Mother was very angry, a hundred dollars. It's enough for the two of them to spend half a month.

"Mom, don't be angry." Zhang Ayi and Zhang Acai stopped their mother and said, "My brother said it." The 100 yuan was given to Ah Niu, and he could spend it as much as he wanted. The red envelope given to you is used to spend money. ”

"But a hundred is too much." After all, my mother got used to careful calculations, and she always thought about the 100 yuan of New Year's money.

"Not much." Zhang Acai said: "My brother gives us 2,000 yuan every month for living expenses!" ”

"So much!?" The mother was frightened again.

"Hmm." The two sisters nodded, and Zhang Ayi said: "Originally, we wanted to save some for our mother, but my brother said that he would give my mother money, and he didn't want us to save it, otherwise he wouldn't want us." ”

The mother was in a complicated mood, some happy, some regretful, and some relieved: "Ayi, Acai, the elder brother of the Zuo family is a good person, you must serve him well and make him happy, do you know?" ”

"Hmm." The sisters nodded again and again: "We all know, Mom, don't worry!" ”

"Mom, open the red envelope quickly and see how much money you have." Zhang Acai urged: "My brother didn't let us see it, and said that my mother had to open it herself." ”

The mother pursed her lips and smiled, opened the red envelope, and then saw a thick pile of brand-new local tyrant gold.

"So much?" The mother was shocked, and roughly estimated the thickness, I am afraid that it will be no less than five thousand.

After counting, sure enough, a full five thousand.

"This ......," the mother's hand trembled, "too much, too much." ”

The sisters didn't expect Zuo Xiaoyou to give 5,000 yuan in one go. 5,000 yuan, enough for their mother and younger brother to cover for a year.

In the afternoon, with the mother's full of gratitude, and the excitement of the younger brother who ran around the mountain and showed off everywhere, the Zhang sisters happily returned to the mountain: "Brother, we are back. ”

"Is it okay at home?" Seeing the two sisters coming back, Zuo Xiaoyou, who was making dumplings, asked with a smile.

"Uh-huh." The two sisters nodded again and again: "It's all good, mom asked us to thank my brother more." ”

As she spoke, the two sisters rolled up their sleeves and washed their hands, helping Zuo Xiaoyou make dumplings.

The two sisters discovered one thing at the same time: "Brother, what is this?" ”

On the dinner table, there are two large plates, one plate has a lot of triangular rice balls sandwiched with nori ribbon, and the other plate is a bunch of fried brown round cakes, which look a bit like fried cakes, I don't know what they are?

"It's Japanese rice balls and Japanese hash browns." Zuo Xiaoyou smiled.

These two common Japanese snacks are made by Tomoko herself, and it is rare for the Chinese New Year, and Tomoko also wants to show her hand. As a Japanese girl in home economics class A, Tomoko is not willing to be a vase.

"It looks delicious." The first time I saw Japanese food, the two sisters were a little greedy.

I haven't eaten anything good since I was a child, so the two sisters are full of snacks and want to taste anything delicious. Most of the living expenses given to them by Zuo Xiaoyou were spent on food.

Otherwise, it wouldn't have developed so quickly.

"Let's try it one by one!" Zuo Xiaoyou smiled: "Don't eat too much, eat it at night when you keep the New Year." ”

"Hmm."

Tomoko's craftsmanship is indeed good, and the two sisters eat it in their mouths. Lianhu is delicious. Let Tomoko, who was hidden on the side, smile. Zuo Xiaoyou secretly stretched out a thumbs, and Tomoko's smile became even brighter.

Unconsciously, it was dark, the rare lights under the mountain were bright, and the huts on the left and right were also lit up like day, and the Spring Festival Gala was watched on TV.

Of course, there is no signal in the mountains, but Xiao Hei has a signal, and he connects the satellite signal very casually, and all kinds of programs can be watched at will. Similarly, laptops and mobile phones can also get in touch with the outside world through Blackie.

Since the White Coral left. Zuo Xiaoyou uses the function of Xiao Hei to keep the phone on standby at any time. His mobile phone card is newly bought, and it has a pre-deposit of 1,000 yuan, so use it!

When I was watching the Spring Festival Gala, Bai Sango's phone call came: "Mr. Zuo, I wish you a New Year's greeting, Happy New Year." ”

Zuo Xiaoyou smiled: "Happy New Year, have you eaten?" ”

"I've eaten it." Bai Coral seemed to be very happy: "Teacher Zuo, I drank some wine today. But I was happy. ”

"What are you so happy about?" White Coral is a Northeast girl, although her appearance is pure and her eyes are pure, she is affected by the living environment. The amount of alcohol is also good.

This is also a skill that White Coral can mix in the entertainment industry in the future - a large amount of alcohol and easy to do.

In all walks of life in China, it is always easier for people who drink a lot to get things done. People who can't drink enough alcohol basically can't do public relations and entertainment. Talking about business is definitely the tail of the crane.

Although this is a culture, Zuo Xiaoyou thinks it's just a bad habit.

When talking about any business, of course, it is which one is more suitable and which one is negotiated. How can you give the order to the other party because the other party is happy to drink with you? Is there really a future for such a company? Has anyone heard that a big international company has to drink until it has stomach bleeding to negotiate a contract?

Only China has it. And it has penetrated into all walks of life, as well as all aspects of life, making many people who do not drink alcohol or have a small amount of alcohol miserable.

Zuo Xiaoyou hates China's current wine table culture. In his opinion, it is a very good enjoyment and interest for friends to get together and chat about tea, juice, dried fruits, and snacks, and afterwards they are sober and in good health, and will not cause trouble to anyone.

Isn't that great?

Why do you have to get drunk and vomit all over the floor to cause trouble for others?

He didn't understand and didn't want to. Now you can't escape from the world, live the life you want, and don't care about other people's blind beeping.

"Mr. Zuo, the film we made not long ago has negotiated a contract with Sweet Potato.com, and my screen debut is about to meet the audience. I'm so happy. White Coral said excitedly.

"Really? That's not enough. Zuo Xiaoyou smiled slightly: "Come on, you can do it." ”

"Hmm." Bai Coral was indeed very interested, chatting with Zuo Xiaoyou for more than half an hour, and then chatting with the Zhang sisters for more than half an hour, and then ended the call unsatisfied.

Seeing the call time displayed on the mobile phone, Zuo Xiaoyou sighed: "This loser, there is no long-distance call fee of 100 yuan." ”

The two sisters snorted and giggled.

In Chinese New Year's Eve, only White Coral called, and the unconscionable director didn't know to call to say hello, not even a single text message. If you are too lazy like this, you will never lend him a house next time.

As the clock rang, there were bursts of firecrackers at the foot of the mountain, and Zuo Xiaoyou took the two sisters and Tomoko to set off fireworks in the yard. Under the colorful night sky, the new year kicked off with laughter. (To be continued......)
