Chapter 72: A Warm Home
It was five o'clock in the afternoon when I arrived at the mall, and the people's shopping mall was still bustling, and the enthusiastic people had the potential to give the whole mall to the air.
Chen Youwei's mind is even more so, he is not short of money, he sees something good and immediately pays for it. He knows that the conditions at home have always been average, and his parents, who have worked hard for most of their lives, think about how their children eat and dress. Chen Youwei now has a lot of money, and naturally wants to improve his family's life.
The trunk of the off-road vehicle was full, and Chen Youwei drove happily to his home humming a little song.
In fact, the urban area of Yicheng City is only a small county-level city, and Chen Youwei drove out of the city and less than three kilometers east of Yicheng County is the county seat. In Chen Youwei's view, it is really a waste to set up a separate Yicheng County, especially since the county seat of Yicheng County is so close to the urban area, it is completely possible to merge the two.
The current Yicheng urban area is small and the urban infrastructure is outdated, which is very inconsistent with the identity of the administrative center of the huge Yicheng area.
Chen Youwei's home is in the courtyard of the family courtyard of Chengbei Brewery in Yicheng County, and the luxurious Mitsubishi off-road vehicle is parked under the fourth floor of his house, Chen Youwei can clearly feel countless fiery eyes sweeping towards him.
"Yo, isn't this promising? I can't recognize it, but I'm back for the New Year? ”
Neighbors who knew each other came over to say hello, and Chen Youwei hurriedly took out his cigarettes and scattered around.
Opening the trunk, Chen Youwei picked up a lot of things and went upstairs, and there were naturally enthusiastic people next to him to help.
"Dad, the second brother is back!" It was the younger brother Chen Changjiang who opened the door, and when he saw Chen Youwei, who he hadn't seen for a long time, he took the things in his hand, turned his head and yelled at the living room.
"Little brother, there is still one in the car below, let's go get ...... together" Chen Youwei said to his father Chen Dahai with a smile: "Dad, pour tea for a few uncles first, and I'll come over immediately." ”
Chen Dahai was still wondering why he was so noisy, Aiko had already turned around and went downstairs, invited the neighbors who were eager to help into the house, and thanked him again and again.
"Lao Chen, it's okay to be a fool, it's all on the off-road vehicle!" Someone gestured to the cigarette in his hand and said with emotion: "It's still Hongtashan who smokes, it seems that he is mixing well in Shuiyang!" ”
Chen Dahai just knew that his beloved son was now in the countryside, and he was still confused about going home for the New Year this time, so he could only laugh and couldn't explain it.
Chen Youwei, who was holding a lot of bags, stepped into the house and said with a smile: "Uncle Xu, the off-road vehicle belongs to an investor in the township, and he is in a hurry to rush back to Hezhou, and this car is temporarily borrowed from me." ”
Lao Xu and the others watched with greed as Chen Youwei put a mountain of things in the bedroom, shook his head again and again and sighed: "It seems that Youwei has made a name for himself, tsk, this year is going to be a fat year!" ”
Sending a few envious neighbors out of the door, Chen Youwei took out a piece of Great China from his handbag, opened it and threw it to his younger brother Chen Changjiang and said, "Come, give our dad a try!" ”
"Wow, Great China!" Chen Changjiang, who is still in college, has a good eye, and naturally knows this very fashionable luxury.
Chen Dahai glared at his little son, who was a little excited, and said with some hesitation: "Youwei, you are eating public food now, but don't make any mistakes!" ”
"Don't worry, I bought these things myself, and there is absolutely no problem." Chen Youwei didn't want his family to worry, so he simply talked about his experience in Huhai, and said with a smile: "Now your son is worth a lot of money, and these things are nothing." ”
Chen Changjiang, who was listening from the sidelines, was full of surprise: "Second brother, you actually have hundreds of thousands of dollars in your hands now?!" Really? ”
Rolling his eyes, Chen Youwei gave his little brother a shock angrily, if it weren't for the fear of frightening you, I wouldn't have gone to such great lengths to hide it. If I told you that I was a millionaire now, wouldn't it make you even more stunned?
"Hey, what about my mom and sister?" Chen Youwei was surprised to find that his home was a little quiet.
"I'm going to take a bath in the bathhouse, and I'm going to go with the Yangtze River at night?" Chen Dahai carefully lit a Chinese cigarette, and said with an infinitely intoxicated expression.
The three old men of the Chen family were smoking cigarettes and chatting in the living room, when the door opened, a familiar voice came into Chen Youwei's ears: "Ahem, cough, is this on fire or what?" Ah, Youwei is back! ”
Chen Youwei stepped forward and took the bag with a change of clothes in his mother Li Hui's hand, and said with a smile: "Yes, Mom, are you back for the New Year!" ”
"Sister, I haven't seen you for a long time, have you married?" Chen Youwei joked with his eldest sister Chen Xiaohua awkwardly.
A smile flashed in Chen Xiaohua's eyes, but he made a gesture to knock his head in his hand, and said lightly: "Okay, you Chen Youwei, when you see the eldest sister, you are always so big and small!" ”
A family of five finally got together, and there were bursts of laughter and laughter in the three-bedroom room, and the warm atmosphere made everyone feel very warm.
Chen Youwei enjoys the warm and relaxed atmosphere with his family, although the days in Shuiyang in the past year have been very fulfilling, for him alone, he still feels a little lonely in the dead of night. Although it was another year after being reunited with his family, his mood was much more relaxed than usual.
accompanied the whole family to have a home-cooked meal, and Chen Youwei chatted with his family for most of the night, without a trace of fatigue.
The next day was the Chinese New Year's Eve, Chen Youwei took a hot bath with his father and younger brother in the morning, and in the afternoon he made dumplings and pasted couplets with his family, and began to welcome the arrival of the new year.
On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, Chen Youwei's family home was very lively. Yicheng County Brewery is a key enterprise in the county, and now is the year when it is the most profitable, every Spring Festival, the momentum of firecrackers in the family courtyard of the brewery is the largest, and the crackling sound is continuous.
Chen Youwei didn't have that nouveau riche mentality, so he had to compare himself with others at this moment, and asked his younger brother to go downstairs to set off a 10,000-ring hanging whip, and he accompanied his father Chen Dahai to pour a small wine and start drinking.
The dishes served are Chen Youwei's home-cooked dishes that he can't eat enough from snacks to big ones, and the wine is a mouth-watering boutique Moutai. Looking at the family members sitting together, Chen Youwei's heart was warm, and the feeling of family reunion was really good.
"Second brother, why did you swoop again this year? It's all 1.8 meters, right? Chen Changjiang gnawed on the chicken leg in his mouth, but his eyes were full of light, obviously very envious of Chen Youwei's current physique.
"Hey, if you don't say that I really haven't paid attention to the Yangtze River, Youwei has not lost weight in the county, but has grown taller again." Mother Li Hui also found out and was very surprised.
The people of the county seat of Yicheng County habitually include themselves in the urban area as well, and people from other places belong to the county in their opinion, which is actually not a local discrimination. Li Hui said this, which can completely make Chen Youwei understand.
The eldest sister Chen Xiaohua pinched Chen Youwei's thick arm beside her, and giggled: "It's grown, it's much stronger than the hemp pole when I was a child." ”
Chen Youwei's face was covered with black lines, this eldest sister always regarded herself as a little doll who didn't grow up.
"Twenty-three, jump!" Chen Dahai looked at the docile and well-behaved second son with a smile, nodded and said: "Youwei must have suffered a lot in the county, hey, you said last time that you were assigned to the township to become the deputy township head, how did you do?" ”
Holding a wine cup and clinking glasses with his father, Chen Youwei smiled and said: "It's okay, there has been a lot of movement in the county recently, and now I am the head of Xiaohe Township." ”
"What?" Chen Dahai thought that he hadn't heard clearly, and asked again: "Are you the township chief?" ”
"Wow, second brother, you are amazing! Doesn't that mean you're a regular student now? ”
Chen Changjiang, who is still in his sophomore year, screamed loudly, although the school he attends is average, but now he is not like Chen Youwei used to be, he only cares about studying. Chen Changjiang is curious about what he should know in society now, and it seems that he has even been involved in things in the system.
Mother Li Hui is not interested in this, and the period when her beloved son can have a good body is the period she is most concerned about. With a happy face, she vigorously served Chen Youwei with vegetables, which could make Chen Changjiang on the side blush: "Mom, as for me, if I come back as a county magistrate in the future, do you want me to wipe out the entire table of dishes?" ”
"How does this kid speak?" Chen Dahai knocked on his young son's skull and said with a smile: "You can stay at home for at least one summer during the summer vacation, how many times can your second brother come back?" ”
The eldest sister next to her didn't mean to help the younger brother, sandwiched a fish piece into Chen Youwei's bowl, and said with a smile: "Then when you become the county magistrate, you are talking about it, now I have to pat the township elder's ass." ”
Blinking his head to Chen Youwei, Chen Xiaohua nodded with satisfaction: "My cosmetics for my eldest sister are good, since you have become a big money, you will be responsible for these things in the future!" ”
From childhood to adulthood, he has never had the upper hand in front of Chen Xiaohua, Chen Youwei naturally bowed down and said yes again and again.
Chen Dahai and Li Hui looked at each other silently and smiled, seeing that the family was so harmonious, what else could they ask for.
