Chapter 158

The Chinese New Year only lasts one day, but we are busy for several days inside and outside!

This year, Xu Di and Zhang Chaoyang came back from the south relatively late, and Grandma Qian is not a picky person, so they just spent the New Year simply.

Xu Di and Zhang Chaoyang worked together in the kitchen, cooking eight dishes, including meat, vegetables and seafood.

Nuannuan was already drooling from the smell from the kitchen. She walked back and forth several times and didn't even bother playing with her doll.

"Nuannuan, wipe it quickly, your saliva is flowing out, haha..."

Zhang Chaoheng took the warm handkerchief and quickly wiped the little greedy cat.

"Uncle, take the meat."

Nuannuan pointed to the kitchen and asked him to get the meat.

Just now, Nuannuan went into the kitchen and was criticized by her mother, who kicked her out.

"Mom was cooking and the oil splashed on my face. It hurts."

Zhang Chaoheng thought, it would be nice if he could have a little girl like Nuannuan in the future.

"Sister, play with cars."

Xuan He was also greedy. He didn't know what Second Aunt had made. It smelled so good. He secretly wiped his saliva several times. It smelled so good.

What is Xu Di doing? Xu Di is frying crispy pork.

Oil coupons are limited, so we have to use them sparingly when cooking. We can only fry food during the Chinese New Year.

Not to mention children, adults are greedy too!

"Wash your hands and eat."

Xu Di served out the last dish, put it on the table, and prepared to eat.

Grandma sat in the main seat, Zhang Chaoyang and Zhang Chaoheng sat on one side, and Xu Di and the two children sat on the other side.

"Come on, grandma, say a few words."

Zhang Chaoyang poured a glass of wine for his grandmother, and also poured a glass for himself and Zhang Chaoheng.

He took another cup of soda and poured it for Xu Di. The two children took a sip each to taste the flavor.

"I hope our motherland will become better and better, you work hard, and your children will grow up healthy and happy!"

"I also wish grandma good health and a long life!"

"Grandma, live a long life!"

"One hundred years old!"

It was a lively New Year. Grandma Qian drank a glass of wine, but the wine didn't make her drunk, but she was drunk herself.

In the evening, Xu Di made dumplings and put a coin in them. As a result, her grandmother ate it.

"Grandma, good luck next year. This is not cheating. I'll just put one."

Xu Di made repeated assurances, which made grandma happy. She was happy regardless of whether she cheated or not.

On the first day of the New Year, grandma gave red envelopes to everyone.

“Thank you, grandma!”

Zhang Chaoyang and Zhang Chaoheng were still a little embarrassed, but Xu Di's words of thanks made them realize that this was their grandmother's love.

“Thank you, grandma!”

The two of them quickly thanked her and put the red envelopes in their pockets. Grandma was very happy.

Zhang Chaoyang felt that there was a reason why his grandmother liked his wife, she was so thoughtful.

After eating dumplings, Xu Di went to work.

Zhang Chaoyang and Zhang Chaoheng took their two children to pay New Year's greetings to their grandfather.

Without the seven-day Spring Festival holiday, Xu Di also started working.

There is no such thing as shifts in their office, and there is more work to do during the Spring Festival.

Zhang Chaoyang and his brother took their children and took a bus to the retirement home.

Uncle Zhang was transferred back this year. Yesterday they all went to the army to express their condolences, even Zhang's father, who is in charge of logistics, went.

We all gathered at the retirement home today, and Uncle Zhang and his family were also there.

Grandma Fang gave birth to three children in total, two sons and one daughter.

The eldest son, Zhang Liang, had just been transferred back to the Beijing Military Region and served as a division commander.

My eldest daughter-in-law used to be a dancer in the art troupe and is now an administrative cadre.

The eldest son’s family had two sons. Zhang Chaozheng, a soldier, had just gotten married and was transferred to a military region in another place.

Zhang Chaomiao, a worker-peasant-soldier student, has one year left to graduate.

The second son, Zhang Chao, is the deputy director of the Beijing Military Hospital, and his wife, Han Li, is the head nurse of the military hospital.

The second son has three children. The eldest, Zhang Chaoyu, is the company commander of the Beijing Military Region. The second son, Zhang Chaobo, graduated from high school and went to the countryside. He is now a barefoot doctor in his brigade. My daughter, Zhang Chaolu, is only in the first year of high school.

Grandma Fang also has a daughter, Zhang Nan, who is a university teacher. My son-in-law is a PhD student who studied abroad, and now our family of four is working as a graduate student in another city.

Grandma Fang never expected that Grandpa Zhang’s original wife and son were still alive, and she became very embarrassed.

There is no way. We have been married for so many years and have three children.

Fortunately, Sister Qian did not make things difficult for them and did not think about renewing their previous relationship.

It’s just that his eldest son became the second son, and the second son became the third son.

As soon as Zhang Chaoyang and his friends entered the house, Grandma Fang greeted them warmly.

"Chaoyang, Chaoheng, come in quickly and take off the child's hat so he can warm up."

"Grandma Fang, don't bother, we can do it ourselves."

Zhang Chaoheng took off Xuan He's hat, scarf and gloves, revealing his fair and clean little face.

Nuannuan was carried here by her father in a quilt. He opened the quilt and took off his hat. She looked around but didn't recognize anyone. She was not afraid. She looked around and then stood next to her father.

"Happy New Year, Grandpa!"

Except for his grandfather, Zhang Chaoyang is not very familiar with the people in the house, including his parents, and he has only met them a limited number of times.

Zhang Chaoheng quickly greeted them, "Happy New Year, Grandpa, Grandma Fang, Mom and Dad, Second Uncle and Second Aunt, Third Uncle and Third Aunt!

Xuanhe, Nuannuan, wish your elders a happy new year! ”

Zhang Chaoyang breathed a sigh of relief that Chao Heng was there, otherwise it would be too embarrassing.

Xuan He and Nuan Nuan heard him talk about wishing a happy new year to the elders, and they still remembered wishing a happy new year to their great-grandmother in the morning.

The two little guys knelt on the ground together and kowtowed to everyone.

The old man sitting on the sofa and the three brothers Zhang Peng were all a little confused. No one expected that the two little guys would kowtow.

"Happy New Year!"

"hapiness!"

Xuan He couldn't remember so many people, so he just said Happy New Year.

Nuannuan can speak better and say happy.

"Okay, okay, get up quickly, Happy New Year, Grandpa will give you a red envelope.

As for the red envelopes, everyone takes out theirs. ”

Grandma Fang was ready and handed four red envelopes to the old man.

"Here, this is given by my great grandfather and great grandmother."

The old man stuffed the red envelopes into the two children's pockets with a smile on his face.

"Thank you, great grandfather and great grandmother!"

Nuan Nuan glanced at the old man, then at Grandma Fang, and suddenly said, "I'm at home."

"What? Who's home?"

The old man understood what it meant and asked?

"Tai, home."

Nuannuan answered very seriously, and everyone almost understood.

This little girl might be talking about her great-grandmother at home.

"Your grandmother loves you for a reason!"

The old man also understood and touched Nuannuan's head with his hand.

"Here, this is grandpa's red envelope."

Father Zhang quickly stuffed red envelopes into the pockets of his two children, and also stuffed some into the pockets of Uncle Zhang II and Uncle Zhang III.

"Dad, here."

Nuannuan’s pocket was small, so she gave the red envelope to her father.

"Nuan Nuan, you don't want to give it to your uncle?"

"Give."

Nuannuan only gave one and stuffed the others into her father's pocket.

"My uncle is just teasing you, no, save it to buy candy."

Nuannuan retracted her hand and continued to put the money into her father's pocket.

"This little girl is so cunning and clever."

Uncle Zhang looked at the two children, both wearing red clothes. They had single eyelids, which were inherited from the Zhang family, and they looked quite cute.

Xuan He has been in a bad mood since he entered the retirement home. He misses his parents.

"Nuan Nuan, I'm your aunt. Your clothes are so beautiful. Who made them?"

"Mom, cat."

Nuannuan pointed to the panda pattern on her trouser leg and asked people to see it.

"This is a giant panda. Look, there are bamboos too."

"Big cat."

Nuannuan couldn’t say the three words “giant panda”, but she said the two words “big cat” clearly and powerfully.

"Okay, you're a big cat, I'll take you to get the toy."

"Guo Guo."

"What fruit?"

"eat."

The two of them were talking at cross purposes and were having a great time.

Xuan He was pulled by his grandmother to sit in her arms and was fed candy.

"Chao Zheng is married too, and will have a child soon. Our family will be prosperous!"

The old man is happy. He has worked hard all his life, isn't it just for a house full of children and grandchildren?

Father Zhang thought that his work ability was not as good as his two younger brothers, but he had the most children, and now he had grandchildren, so he was not inferior.

There were people in the room, all with their own ideas, and Zhang Chaoyang found it funny. He suddenly missed his grandma and Xu Di very much.
