Chapter 361: Have You Figured It Down?
Since a few years ago, firecrackers have been banned during the Spring Festival in Beijing, and there is a lot less atmosphere of New Year's flavor.
For this year's Spring Festival, Chen Youwei raised his hands to express his approval of this much quieter environment.
The two little guys who are not a few months old in the family are already full of energy, if they are stimulated by the deafening sound of firecrackers, I am afraid that Chen Youwei will have three heads and six arms to appease them.
Unlike in the past few years, when the Chen family could not always reunite as a family, this year's Chinese New Year's Eve, all the members of the Chen family, including the eldest uncle Chen Bainian, were all together. Especially the appearance of Qiuqiu and Diandian, the appearance of the two little guys filled the Chen family's old house with countless laughter.
Chen Youmin's family also came back from Anzai County, no matter how cold Xiao Yue was on weekdays, she got together with Bai Yan, who became a mother earlier than her, and naturally she was also interested in exchanging with each other about the experience of raising children.
Throughout the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the Chen family's old mansion was full of joy, and everyone went their own way to decorate the huge courtyard with a new atmosphere.
As in the past, the Chen family's New Year's feast was chosen in the evening, and after a delicious family banquet, many small characters kowtowed to the old man Chen Wuzhi according to the old rules. Of course, at this time, as the eldest in the family, Chen Wuxian wants to send red envelopes and gifts to the children of many grandchildren.
If you really want to talk about it, the two brothers Chen Youwei are nearly thirty years old, which is not a young age, and several younger ones, including Zheng He, are basically over twenty years old.
Chen Wuxi, who was full of smugness with a red face, looked at the big family of four generations in front of him happily, and the joy in his heart was naturally indescribable.
"There are people and people, you two come here!" Chen Wuxian called his most beloved grandson in front of him, and said with love on his face: "When you are old, you will not give you children's things......"
"Grandpa, I'm not a child!" Pingping of the second aunt's family made a grimace at Chen Wuxian and muttered.
Chen Wuxian stroked his beard lightly, and said with a smile: "Okay, Pingping is not a child anymore, she has become a big girl!" ”
Zheng He was much more sensible than before, and saw that the old man had something to say to Chen Youmin and Chen Youwei, so he smiled and pulled Pingping to the side to find a reason to talk nonsense.
"This is a pair of words for the two of you, you can keep it!" Chen Wuxi took out the two framed characters from the coffee table next to him and handed them over separately.
Chen Youwei had already received a pair of emotions, but he was obviously able to restrain himself.
Chen Youmin next to him was agitated in his heart, and he officially stepped into his career for several years, and finally was able to get the recognition of his old man, which made him feel very proud of his eyebrows.
"What? Bad gift for me? Why don't you two little ones talk? Chen Wuxian said with a smile, as if he saw Chen Youmin's excitement, and deliberately teased.
Chen Youwei smiled and stretched out his hand: "Grandpa, our gift is naturally good, but we still have a few little guys waiting for your gift below!" ”
Chen Youmin gratefully glanced at Chen Youwei's relief, recovered his emotions and smiled: "Yes, grandpa, you have grown up for another generation, and those little guys can't be forgotten." ”
beckoning Xiao Yue Baiyan who was holding the child to his side, Chen Wuxian glared at Chen Youwei and the others, reached out and took out a few longevity locks from his pocket, looked at the three little guys of the fourth generation of the Chen family lovingly, and said with a smile: "It's been ready for a long time, come, put it on them." ”
"Grandpa, the name you gave the eldest brother's child, and you also worked for Qiuqiu and Diandian, right?" Chen Youwei pulled Xiao Yue's hand and said with a smile.
Chen Wuxi's interest soared, and he said with some hesitation in his eyes: "Crescent Moon, if I name the ball, your old Xiao Tou won't rob me again, right?" ”
It was rare to see that his old man was also deflated, and everyone laughed.
Xiao Yue said in a crisp voice: "No, but my grandfather said that the right to choose the name will be handed over to you, if it is not good, he will come to you again!" ”
Chen Wuxi's face changed, and he muttered: "I know that this old Xiao Tou is playing tricks!" ”
Chen Youwei deliberately asked: "Then why don't you let Grandpa Yue'er choose a name, and if you are not satisfied, you will discuss it?" ”
Chen Wuxian shook his head again and again, and said without letting go: "That's not good, our Chen family's descendants will definitely not be given the right to name them!" ”
Everyone was amused again by the old man's childlike reaction.
"Youmin's doll is named a building character, what is the name of the ball?" Chen Wuxian fell into deep thought.
Everyone held their breath and waited for the old man's final answer.
Gently patting his thigh, Chen Wuxi swept over the expectant crowd and said with a smile: "The three little guys in the Chen family's pie character is a brocade character, Youmin's doll is called Chen Jindong, Qiuqiu is called Chen Jinyu, and Diandian is called Chen Jinzhou, right?" ”
Uncle Chen Bonian shook his head and laughed on the side.
Chen Youwei was also speechless and said: "Grandpa, you are too trouble-free, although the word universe is quite atmospheric, but this is too straightforward, how to listen to it is a little awkward?" ”
Chen Wuzhi coughed dryly, and said strongly: "Isn't the artistic conception good......?"
"Grandpa's idea is good, why don't you change the two words to a homonym, Chen Jinyu's Yu is changed to the feather of the feather, and Chen Jinzhou's Zhou is changed to the boat of the boat?" Xiao Yue smiled on the side and said what she thought.
"Chen Jinyu? Chen Jinzhou? The old man laughed and clapped his hands and said, "It's good, this name sounds a lot!" ”
Chen Youwei gave **** an appreciative look, and a look of pride flashed in Xiao Yue's eyes.
Huan Huanxi officially decided on the names of the two little ones, and everyone ended the most solemn ceremony of Chinese New Year's Eve in the family.
Several women came together with their respective children and exchanged their upbringing, while the old man beckoned Uncle Chen Bonian, Chen Youmin and Chen Youwei to come to the secluded study to chat and narrate.
Chen Youwei already has immunity to such a scene, and for Chen Youmin, this kind of treatment is obviously the first time, compared to Chen Youwei's calmness and calmness around him, Chen Youmin is obviously a lot more out of shape.
Chen Bonian sighed in his heart, his own child is really not as calm as his nephew.
The area in the study is not large, and there is a staff next to him who puts the brewed tea on the coffee table next to the individual, and Chen Bonian and others are sitting precariously waiting for the old man to speak.
"In the past year, everyone has worked hard and made a lot of achievements, I hope you can continue to maintain this kind of non-arrogant and impatient mood in the new year, and strive to complete your own work seriously." Chen Wuxian in the study did not have the relaxed smile in the living room, and his domineering attitude without anger made Chen Youmin, who was a little lacking in confidence, very uncomfortable.
"For the New Year, I didn't want to say too many messy things, but since Youwei has found so much trouble, I can only implement some things when everyone is here." The old man glanced at his little grandson and stroked his beard.
Except for Chen Youmin, the people present were still confused, and everyone else was like a mirror.
Uncle Chen Bonian took two sips of the teacup, turned his head sideways and muttered: "First of all, there is a way to go next, Hong Yan asked him to go to Liaobei, I think something is wrong." ”
Chen Youmin was surprised: "Liaobei? I heard that the place is very chaotic, and many companies can't operate, so isn't it asking for trouble to go there at this time? ”
The old man glanced at Chen Youmin slightly, turned to Chen Youwei and said, "What do you think for yourself?" ”
At this time, more than half a month has passed since Hong Yan's conversation, and Chen Youwei, who has thought deeply, said with a solemn expression: "As the eldest brother said, there are many problems in Liaobei, and there are indeed too many unfavorable factors if you go now." Moreover, the strength of our family in northern Liaobei is almost blank, and without the support of the upper echelons, I am afraid that I may not be able to do anything alone. ”
Chen Bonian interjected: "The worst outcome is that you are plotted in that sinister environment, if that is the case, things will be in trouble!" ”
"Then you mean not going to Liaobei?" The old man's eyes were slightly closed, and he looked elegantly calm and calm.
Chen Youwei glanced at the uncle and Chen Youmin with blazing eyes, stared at the old man's eyes and said: "Where I go is actually very good to make up my mind, it depends on what kind of means we take in the upcoming outbreak of the Southern Fujian Incident!" ”
Chen Wuxian's tiger eyes opened suddenly, stared at Chen Youwei, and asked in a deep voice, "How do you say this?" ”
"As far as I know, the smuggling incident in southern Fujian is of a bad nature and involves a huge area, and it is estimated that the whole province of southern Fujian will experience a storm at that time. If such a major incident happens in our neighboring provinces not far from Jiangnan Province, if we don't take advantage of such a god-given opportunity to infiltrate it, it will simply be the greatest waste and crime! Chen Youwei's tone was a little excited.
Chen Bai smiled young, picked up the tea and continued to sip softly without squeaking, but the appreciation between the beautiful eyes was obvious.
"Keep talking......" Chen Wuxian had a calm expression and closed his eyes slightly.
Chen Youmin next to him was dumbfounded, who was officially participating in the discussion within the family for the first time, where would he have thought that the first thing that caught his ears was such a shocking event.
Looking at the calm Chen Youwei calmly responding to the old man's inquiry beside him, a trace of sweat oozed from Chen Youmin's forehead, and he was wondering if he could handle it freely if he changed himself to that position?
"Most of the strength of our Chen family is in Jiangnan Province, and with the efforts of Uncle Zhuo in recent years, Shannan Province has gradually become an important province that we pay attention to. What I'm thinking is, if we enter Minnan Province at this time, what kind of negative impact will it have on us? Chen Youwei raised his concerns.
"We want to enter southern Fujian, but not all, it is enough to have enough influence!" Chen Wuxian didn't drag mud and water, and there were absolutely trustworthy family members in front of him, so he directly said his thoughts.
"Then if I go to Liaobei at this time, if the situation opens up there, will it have any impact on our family and even the faction?" Chen Youwei asked step by step.
As soon as these words came out, even the uncle Chen Bonian, who had always been silent, was dumbfounded.
Chen Wuxi stared closely at the confident little grandson in front of him, a look of appreciation flashed in his eyes, and he nodded slowly: "There are a total of thirty or forty provinces in Huaxia, even if we have some influence in three or four of them, there is no problem at all for the overall situation!" ”
Hearing the support in the old man's tone, Chen Youwei was overjoyed, and said in a firm tone: "Then I'll go to Liaobei!" ”
