Chapter 451: 97 Spring Festival (I)
The Spring Festival of 1997 was in early February, and there was no Chinese New Year's Eve, and the 29th of the lunar month was Chinese New Year's Eve. That night, Geng Wenyang's family of five called Zhuang Fujin to have a sumptuous dinner together, and then watched the Spring Festival Gala together.
But it's a pity that the quality of Ding Chounian's Spring Festival Gala program is very average, which can be described as lackluster, and everyone who watches it can't arouse any interest.
Zhuang Fujin found a space to remind Geng Wenyang: "Yangyang, Xiaomeng will take a plane from Hong Kong Island to Haizhou the afternoon after tomorrow, and I have to trouble you to send a car to pick it up."
Geng Wenyang smiled, "Uncle Zhuang, we don't need to be so polite. It just so happened that my parents-in-law went to Haizhou to see my brother-in-law, and I had to go there to greet them for the New Year in the second year of junior high school, and I just picked up Sister Xiaomeng back by the way."
"Hey, that's good!" Zhuang Fujin said happily: "It's good to go by the way, at least you don't need to make a special trip."
Since Zhuang Xiaomeng's divorce, he has to return to Baicheng to accompany Zhuang Fujin during the New Year's holidays, and of course, he has to exchange some business things with Geng Wenyang by the way.
After a lot of contacts, Zhuang Zhuang gradually fell in love with Zhuang Ganma, who often gave him novel toys, and was very excited every time he saw her, and sometimes even behaved closer than his own mother, which made Gan Ruolan quite complaining.
Fortunately, Zhuang Xiaomeng is more good at being a person, and every time she comes back from Xingzhou and Hong Kong Island, she will bring some brand-name cosmetics or fashionable clothes and other novelties as gifts to Gan Ruolan, which makes her embarrassed to have any opinions, so she can only reluctantly become friends with her husband's childhood sweetheart.
Early in the morning on the first day of the first lunar month, Geng Wenyang drove a Lincoln car and took his parents to visit relatives and friends as usual, earning enough eyeballs and face.
In the afternoon, as in previous years, he came to Master Du Gaoyi's house to pay New Year's greetings. Du Chengying knew that Geng Wenyang would come to his house at this time every year to pay New Year's greetings to his grandfather, so he deliberately took his girlfriend Liu Qing to return to his grandfather's house early after transferring relatives to wait for the arrival of the big boss.
Geng Wenyang is now one of the most distinguished guests in the eyes of Du Gaoyi and his disciples, so the host and guest seat next to Du Gaoyi's left hand has been empty, and no one wants to sit. The big guy made a special room for him to sit in.
After last year's lesson, Geng Wenyang also had an extra heart, and waited outside the courtyard gate until his senior brother Zheng Baisheng came before entering the courtyard together.
Zheng Baisheng, as the leader of the Eight Classics, naturally had to sit in the host and guest seats, and Geng Wenyang could only sit under him aggrievedly.
After a few words of greeting, Du Gaoyi said, "Wen Yang, I thank you so much for helping our family find such a good granddaughter-in-law. Not to mention that Xiaoliu is beautiful, and his family is good and highly educated, to be honest, my Liang Liang is not worthy of others!"
Liu Qing in the corner hurriedly hugged her boyfriend and said, "Grandpa, I like a man like Cheng Ying."
Du Chengying saw that his girlfriend didn't understand the rules, so he interjected indiscriminately when his grandfather was talking, for fear of upsetting his grandfather, so he quickly and secretly dragged her.
Liu Qing said unhappily, "What are you dragging? I just think you're good, can't you talk about it?"
Seeing her so frank, the big guy couldn't help but laugh. Du Gaoyi was worried that the girl's thin skin would not look good, so he hurriedly said, "Just like it! If you like it! As long as you like Chengying, we can talk about everything in our family."
Geng Wenyang took the opportunity to praise him, "Master, both of them have performed very well in our company. Cheng Ying and his colleagues won two invention patents last year, and Koyanagi also published six or seven articles in newspaper publications. Both of them are young talents with great prospects for the future."
No matter who praises it, it is not as happy as the praise of the big boss of one's own family. When Du Chengying was still stunned, Liu Qing hurriedly dragged him, smiled at Geng Wenyang and said, "Mr. Geng, thank you for giving us such a high evaluation. We will live up to your expectations and will work harder in the future."
Du Chengying finally reacted, and said with a smile: "Yes! We're going to do a good job!"
Geng Wenyang smiled slightly and said, "When will you two get married?"
Liu Qingwan didn't expect him to ask such a private question in front of so many people, and his little face turned red to his neck. Du Chengying scratched his head and muttered, "We...... Let's fight for it this year."
.
"When you're old enough, get married early." Geng Wenyang said with a smile: "My master can also meet his great-grandson earlier, just in time for the four generations to be in the same house."
When it came to giving birth, Koyanagi's face turned even redder. Du Chengying didn't know how to answer, so he could only laugh.
After chatting for a while, Zheng Baisheng glanced at Geng Wenyang, and he willingly followed his senior brother to say goodbye.
Out of the courtyard gate, Zheng Baisheng said, "Wen Yang, go sit with me for a while?"
Geng Wenyang smiled, "Okay! I haven't given my sister-in-law a New Year's greeting yet."
Zheng Baisheng still rides his old but well-maintained Golden Deer bicycle. Geng Wenyang put it in the wide trunk of the Lincoln sedan and took Zheng Baisheng to his home in the city-level dormitory compound.
Zhang Yuying, the object of Zheng Baisheng, is still home alone. Geng Wenyang preemptively bowed to her for a year, and was then enthusiastically let on the sofa by Zhang Yuying.
Geng Wenyang took the initiative to ask, "Haoran graduated this year, right? Is the job settled?"
"Hey! Don't mention it!" Zheng Baisheng sighed and said, "A few days ago, you told me that our province will openly recruit civil servants this year, so I quickly inquired, and it is really what you said."
Zhang Yuying said on the side: "Yes! Our province's first open recruitment of civil servants is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
"That's right!" Zheng Baisheng patted his thigh and said, "But my son didn't want to go to the government department, so he had to do some technology, so he found a job from the Provincial Metallurgical Design Institute. Alas!"
Zhang Yuying complained: "It is said that the Provincial Metallurgical Design Institute has been changed into a self-supporting enterprise unit, and it is no longer a business establishment. You said that Haoran, this kid, didn't cherish such a good opportunity to take the civil service exam, and had to do any technology, it almost made the two of us angry."
Geng Wenyang smiled and said, "Isn't the old saying saying: my son can't help my mother! Since Haoran wants to do technical work, even if you force him to take the test, he may not be able to pass the test, so it is better to do what he wants to do according to the child."
"I've talked to your sister-in-law with him a lot." Zheng Baisheng complained: "It's a pity that it's in vain, people have their own ideas, and they have to go to the Metallurgical Design Institute to live or die, so the two of us have no choice."
Geng Wenyang had no choice but to persuade: "The Provincial Metallurgical Design Institute is also a good unit. Maybe Haoran can do something if he goes."
"I hope so." Zheng Baisheng said helplessly: "I'm afraid he will regret it in the future!"
After talking about the child, Geng Wenyang was concerned again: "Senior brother, what is the current situation of Niu Tieli from the third garment factory?"
"What did you say about him?" Zheng Baisheng sneered and said, "The kidnapping case a year ago almost got him in, but he was not implicated. Otherwise, this guy will have to spend the whole year inside."
"Oh?" Geng Wenyang's eyes lit up and said, "Tell me quickly, what's going on?"
