Chapter 443: Watching the Spring Festival Gala on the spot.
Shaving your head and taking a bath is something that people in Beijing must do on Chinese New Year's Eve.
On Chinese New Year's Eve, everyone in the family was busy, and Charlie Butler invited back a head shaving master to cut the hair of all sizes in the family.
When the head shaver came, he thought it would be difficult, but he cut more than a dozen people, and the broken hair on the ground added up to only a thin layer, and everyone just cut a small handful at the bottom of the meaning, and only one big tall strong man used a clipper to push the already short hair clean.
People follow the local customs, and four dogs and a cat can't run away either.
A shallow pool of hot spring water was also introduced into their room, and Ruan Jiaojiao and Ji Huai'an accompanied their two children to stand in the hot spring pool that was just below their ankles, helping the dogs comb their hair.
It is said that cats are afraid of water, and their little black cat is not only not afraid, but even lies on the bottom of the shallowest pool at the edge, squinting and purring in enjoyment.
The black cat Sir has grown up a lot, and he has gained more than one lap fatter than the original skinny kitten, and the most obvious thing is that the sparse and dull hair has become dense and slippery.
They can't soak in the hot springs for too long, Ji Huai'an glanced at his watch, and with an order, the little ones immediately lined up to go ashore from the steps, and then threw the water together.
Ruan Jiaojiao, Ji Huai'an and Qingqing hid far away, but they didn't care at all, laughed and rushed up to meet the water droplets, touching their little heads one by one.
Seeing that they were almost gone, Ruan Jiaojiao and Ji Huai'an walked over to wrap them in bath towels, hugged them one by one on the beauty table, and waited for the very experienced and specially trained Dongdong housekeeper to come over for beauty.
Ruan Jiaojiao and their Chinese New Year's Eve dinner this time was very early, starting at three o'clock in the afternoon. After Wang Xianyang and Liam lit firecrackers in the open space outside the restaurant, accompanied by the sound of firecrackers, everyone closed the door of the restaurant and began to eat.
The reason why I ate so early was because the family had to go to the Spring Festival Gala at night, and they had to call to pay New Year's greetings and wash up later, and the time was also very tight.
Ruan Jiaojiao and Ji Huai'an both wore sweaters and coats, and they were not outstanding.
The two babies are different, both wearing Chinese jackets trimmed with red satin rabbit fur. Wearing a small red hat every year, Qingqing has two Nezha chirps on her head, with a small red tassel hair ornament, and a pair of very delicate solid gold bells on the hair ornament. Like a little fairy child from a New Year's painting, Yuxue is cute.
Wang Xianyang and Liam have already changed their clothes and are waiting for them, one is wearing a jacket and the other is wearing a down jacket, very energetic and handsome.
Uncle and Uncle Xiao took a baby by themselves, quickly went to the door and got into the car, Ruan Jiaojiao and Ji Huaian said goodbye to Charlie's housekeeper and sat in the car at the beginning.
After they left, the people in the family either went home from work, or went to the bathhouse in batches to line up, like Steward Xu and Sister-in-law Gong, who stayed in Beijing for a long time, almost became half of the people in Beijing, and they have long loved the bathing culture here, and they will rub twice if they have anything to do.
…
Ruan Jiaojiao also participated in the Spring Festival Gala for the first time, and used to watch it on TV, watch performances, and watch the audience sitting in the audience seats and round tables.
Unexpectedly, this time, she also sat at the round table on the edge of the stage and watched the performance up close.
It's not that the state only invited Ruan Jiaojiao's family this year, in fact, since the year Ruan Jiaojiao came to Beijing, the state has sent out invitations one month in advance every year.
It's just that for various reasons, Ruan Jiaojiao celebrated the New Year in Beijing for the first time, and of course she had time to go to the Spring Festival Gala for the first time.
Because of Ruan Jiaojiao's request, the position of their table arrangement is relatively marginal, which belongs to the position that the camera will not capture very well.
On the round table, there is a tablecloth with delicate patterns, a fresh flower blue in the middle, surrounded by various cans and paper cups, and considering that some people like to drink tea, there is also a thermos and tea leaves, as well as a number of tea cups. As for dim sum dried fruits, there are naturally none.
The atmosphere of watching the Spring Festival Gala on the spot is different, especially the current cross talk sketches, which will not be embarrassed to play with you, there are a lot of baggage and laughter, and there will be a little irony, Ruan Jiaojiao watched it with relish, and applauded several times just by applauding.
Needless to say, singing performances, whether you like it or not is secondary, and the singing skills are better than the other.
Listening to the singing on stage, Ruan Jiaojiao couldn't help but think of a mixed-race actor from Bay Province who they invited at last year's Spring Festival Gala, with wide shoulders and long legs, beautiful singing, and even more writhing dancing, but unfortunately he didn't come last year.
Adults are okay, children are hungry fast, during the performance, good father Ji Huaian also specially soaked milk powder for the babies, so that they can watch while sucking, which is called a taste.
The current Spring Festival Gala has not yet "Unforgettable Tonight", in the chorus of "We Are Friends", the party came to an end, Ji Huaian and Liam respectively held two sleepy babies, and the family left the scene to go home.
Put the babies back in their rooms and go to bed, and then it's time for the adults.
Sister-in-law Gong cooked sesame glutinous rice balls for everyone, and after eating, Ruan Jiaojiao followed Ji Huai'an and them to the open space to set off fireworks, and after the excitement, they squatted in the chess and card room for the Spring Festival reserved program.
……
New year, new busyness.
Ruan Jiaojiao and Ji Huai'an were also a little more idle on the first day of junior high school, and since the second year of junior high school, they have taken their two younger brothers and children to various homes to "eat".
On the morning of the second year of junior high school, Zhang Meihua had dinner at her house, and in the afternoon she went to her grandfather's house to accompany the elderly.
In the third year of junior high school, I went to the old gentleman's house in Xiyuan for dinner, and by the way, I looked forward to the future, and in the afternoon, I went to the house of a big man who knew Grandpa Ruan for dinner.
Although it was a rush, Ruan Jiaojiao and Ji Huai'an did not forget their eldest son's family, and went to the Beijing Zoo on the day they returned to Beijing to see the rolling and the rolling daughter-in-law and his two daughters.
Their eldest son is a merry bear, and since he became an adult, he has been on a blind date with no less than ten beautiful bears, and has developed an intimate relationship with four of them.
Ruan Jiaojiao and Ji Huai'an, as parents, are quite generous to their eldest son's blind date, flying and dropping off, throwing checks without saying a word, and even after the first wife gave birth to a baby bear, they directly built a private bear house for them locally and sent a lot of money.
Now the first daughter and the youngest daughter who has just given birth for less than a year are living in the Beijing Zoo, and they have also been adopted by Ruan Jiaojiao and Ji Huai'an's company, and they live a little princess-like life.
Except for the day of return, Ruan Jiaojiao's family spent the whole afternoon in the zoo on the first day of the new year, ignoring their own rolling in the glass window every year, shouting at the elder brother and brother, and also finding many angles to take pictures with his brother and nieces. Having a giant panda brother makes him proud, and he is even more happy to be upgraded.
