Chapter 283 New Year's Eve

New Year's Eve.

Hu Taihong lost his job.

Saved his life.

Su Manman got 700 yuan and took a rumbling train to her hometown which she had not visited for a long time.

Chen Qingze returned home early on his bicycle.

He Yuxiang was shocked: "Why did you ask for leave again?"

Chen Qing: "I have official business."

"All right."

He Yuxiang didn't know what to say.

It’s useless if my aunt comes home early.

My uncle has to come back.

He had been cleaning the house for several days in a row, even cleaning every corner. When he saw the bicycle tire was dirty, he couldn't help but wipe it again and again.

Chen Qing is tired.

She sat on the swing and ate melon seeds.

"He Yuxiang..."

"He Yuxiang..."

"Give me something to eat..."

"You sound like you're calling for souls." He Yuxiang complained.

"I'm going crazy with hunger."

Chen Qing was afraid that Yang Xiujin's men would suddenly jump out.

Then she would have failed.

So the bicycle was pedaled very fast.

The energy is also exhausted.

He Yuxiang: "No, Xiaoyu has a dog's nose, she will definitely be able to smell that you ate something fried."

Chen Qing: "I can brush my teeth!"

“A waste of toothpaste.”

He Yuxiang rolled his eyes at her.

He looked at his aunt's watch and saw that it was only half past three. After hesitating for a while, he went to boil some water.

"You have less work to do, so you can take a shower first, so you don't have to boil water in such a big pot at night."

"Okay."

Chen Qing leaned on the swing like a piece of trash.

The swing at home originally had no color at all, but later she and Xiaoyu filled it with colors.

There is no regular splendor.

Chen Qing cracked a melon seed and had to use force to throw away the shell. She shouted loudly: "He Yuxiang!"

"What are you doing again?"

He Yuxiang was impatient.

Chen Qing made a request: "I want a smaller trash can."

He Yuxiang took a deep breath.

A man who knows the current situation is a hero. Chen Qing quickly said, "I don't want it anymore. You go ahead and do your work. I'm fine, really."

He Yuxiang warned: "Don't call me."

Chen Qing called out weakly: "He Yuxiang..."

"I'm going to lose my temper."

He Yuxiang couldn't bear it anymore.

Chen Qing quickly asked, "Have we bought the firecrackers?"

He Yuxiang paused: "No."

"Then let's go buy it!" Chen Qing said excitedly: "Let's go, let's go."

He Yuxiang added a piece of thick firewood to the stove before following his aunt out.

The two of them walked out, and the road was bustling with activity.

They all met many acquaintances.

The eldest son of an old lady was carrying a bundle of firewood and walking home.

Old Mrs. Qin was hunched over, cursing as she carried two live fish. Even the fish's tails were swinging wildly.

The staff of the neighborhood committee were checking fire safety from house to house, writing something down in a small notebook.

Chen Qing said, "You seem to be boiling water, right?"

He Yuxiang: "So I told you to walk faster!"

"Oh my gosh."

Chen Qing hurried to the supply and marketing cooperative.

The supply and marketing cooperative was not far from the family compound. Before the two men reached the door, they heard a lot of noise inside.

Through the foggy windows, you can see the crowds of people inside.

The two walked in and found that the supply and marketing cooperative was crowded with people buying New Year's goods, and there was a long line in front of the counter.

The busiest place was the non-staple food counter, where people held up meat coupons, oil coupons, and sugar coupons, rushing to buy New Year's goods.

The salesperson was busy and sweating, weighing and using an abacus.

"The cannon is over there!"

Chen Qing pulled He Yuxiang towards the innermost counter.

A group of children gathered in front of the firecracker counter, staring at the dazzling array of firecrackers in the glass cabinet with shining eyes.

The short-legged tiger saw He Yuxiang and waved at him: "He Yuxiang, are you here to buy firecrackers too?"

He Yuxiang nodded modestly.

The dwarf tiger introduced: "Throwing firecrackers is three cents for twenty pieces, which is the best value. Polishing firecrackers is ten cents, which is very expensive."

Chen Qing was afraid of the danger of firecrackers.

So I bought ten boxes of firecrackers.

Firecrackers do not require tickets, Chen Qing just asks for them and pays for them directly.

The dwarf tiger looked at He Yuxiang with envy: "Your aunt is so nice. She actually bought you so many firecrackers. It would be great if you could become my aunt."

He Yuxiang: "Get lost."

His voice was drowned out by the crowd and Dwarf Tiger didn't hear it at all.

He Yuxiang said to the short-legged tiger: "I have to go back."

"good."

The dwarf continued to squeeze in the front. He wanted to see who bought the expensive firecrackers so that he could follow behind and take advantage of the bargains.

Chen Qing brought the firecrackers back home and asked He Yuxiang to play with them.

He Yuxiang: "I'll go check the water. If it's hot, take a shower."

"knew."

Chen Qing opened a box of firecrackers.

Throw it to the ground.

There was a loud bang.

There is no difference from later generations.

She threw a dozen of them with great interest.

He Yuxiang: "Go take a shower."

Chen Qing simply threw them all to the ground.

Bang bang bang bang bang——

He Yuxiang began to doubt his aunt's age and why she was so childish: "No one as old as you plays with firecrackers."

"It's okay. I'll ask your uncle to play with me tonight. That way, there will be people older than me who can play with firecrackers."

Chen Qing felt that he was really smart.

She went to get out her New Year clothes and take a bath.

By the time she had finished cleaning up, it was almost six o'clock.

He Yuxiang was really glad that he asked his aunt to take a bath early, otherwise she would have to be busy until very late.

He Yuan got off work on time today, and came back with Xiaoyu in his arms to prepare the New Year's Eve dinner.

Because I need to make five dishes and one soup.

Time is still quite tight.

But as soon as he entered the door, he paused slightly.

Chen Qing was wearing a blue woolen coat with a double row of shiny copper buttons on his chest. His collar was slightly turned outward, revealing the collar of his snow-white dacron shirt underneath. His straight legs were wrapped in corduroy pants, and his black leather shoes could be vaguely seen.

The sunset glowed obliquely over her, and her whole body seemed to be covered with a layer of soft light. Her blue woolen coat, black hair, and snow-white skin were as rich in colors as a painting.

Chen Qing smiled at He Yuan: "Does it look good?"

Xiaoyu nodded vigorously: "It looks great, I want to dress like this when I grow up!!"

He Yuan: "It looks good."

His voice was slightly hoarse.

The surprise in those narrow eyes cannot be hidden.

Xiaoyu stuck out her lips for a kiss.

Chen Qing leaned over and kissed her on the cheek.

He Yuan was a little envious of Xiaoyu.

He Yuxiang urged: "Come and cook quickly."

One by one.

They are all procrastinating.

He Yuan looked at Chen Qing reluctantly: "I'll cook, can you come and accompany me?"

"Didn't you think I was in the way before?" Chen Qing raised his eyebrows.

He Yuxiang got angry: "Don't come, I think you're in the way. Uncle, haven't you seen her? She just changed her clothes."

He Yuan was speechless: "You don't understand."

He went to the kitchen, rolled up his sleeves and started working.

He Yuan first boiled the soup, and then said to He Yuxiang: "I'm going to catch a chicken and kill it. You fill the basin with hot water so that it will be convenient for me to perm its feathers later."

He Yuxiang nodded.

Do as he says.

When Xiaoyu learned that the chicken was going to be killed, she hurried over and watched the chicken's neck bleed, then it was scalded, plucked, washed, and chopped into pieces. She swallowed and said, "I've been feeding it for a long time. Will it taste good?"
