Grandpa Xu was also very happy. He stood up with his glass in hand and secretly poured himself a glass of wine: "This year is the happiest year for me.

We have changed a lot this year. The daughter of the old family has grown up. Not only has she led the family to a better life, but she has also brought a path to wealth to the people in the village.

This girl is really capable. Our Xu family's ancestors would definitely be happy if they knew about this.

And there is the third son, this kid has finally grown up." When talking about the third son, Grandpa Xu's eyes were filled with tears.

"This kid has always been the smartest among you brothers, but this intelligence doesn't need to be put to good use. The third brother's wife has wronged you all these years.

Only you care about the third brother and are willing to live with him. If it were someone else, he would have left long ago.

The third brother's wife is a good one, you should cherish her well, okay?"

Aunt Xu was instantly flattered when Grandpa Xu said this. Her husband treated her very well now. He gave all the money he earned this time to her.

"Dad, Jianshe is very good to me..." Before Aunt Xu could finish her words, Xu Jianshe stood up and looked at Aunt Xu with a guilty look on his face.

"Dad, I get it. Don't worry, I will work hard to support our family in the future. I will never be the same as before." Uncle Xu was truly repentant.

Before, he thought that his life would be just like that, muddled and without a chance of making a breakthrough. However, after following Yingying for some time, he gained a lot of experience.

Only after learning a lot of things did I understand the principles of being a human being.

The most important thing for a man is to have children and a wife. Having a good child and a good wife is even more precious.

It was because of his previous behavior. Fortunately, his wife didn't care about it too much.

Grandpa Xu said "good" several times in a row and nodded with satisfaction. As long as the children are sensible and capable, then life will be good.

"Mom and Dad, I wish you a long life and happiness in the new year."

"Mom and Dad, I wish you..."

The New Year officially begins with the sound of firecrackers and children playing.

Xujia Village made a lot of money this year, and Xu's father even specially hired a projectionist to show a movie in the village.

To be honest, Xu Ying has never seen a movie in this era, so she is quite curious.

So at the invitation of Xu's mother, she picked up the small stool at home and went to the barley factory in the village with the large group.

The projectionist had already prepared the equipment and installed it.

Seeing Xu's father coming with a warm smile on his face, everyone knows that Xujia Village is now on the road to good fortune.

It is not only connected with the textile factory in the county, but also with the food factory. Now people in Xujia Village are working for both factories.

The scale is quite large, and many people want to apply for the job. The main thing is that they don't need any academic qualifications, and the requirements are low, which is much better than the strict ones in this big factory.

Xujia Village is very popular now, and many girls or sons want to become relatives with people from Xujia Village.

"Brother Xu, we can start now." The projectionist said as he handed a cigarette to Xu's father.

"This must be Brother Xu's daughter, she's really pretty. I heard that this girl works in both a textile factory and a food factory!

You are so talented at such a young age! Girl, come sit here, you can see clearly." The projectionist picked the best seat for Xu Ying.

Xu Ying smiled and was about to go over when she caught sight of Huo Chen outside the crowd.

She was delighted and waved to the projectionist: "Thank you, uncle, but no need, I'll just stand here and watch for a while and then go back."

Huo Chen raised his lips when he saw her coming over: "Why don't you watch it?"

Could Xu Ying say that she missed him? Of course not, so someone raised his head proudly and said, "What's wrong? Don't want to see it anymore! Why are you standing so far away? Can you see it?" Xu Ying stood on tiptoe but still couldn't see it.

Huo Chen looked at her silly appearance and chuckled: "It's enough to be able to see you."

Xu Ying's eyes widened and flickered. Seeing that no one was paying attention, she poked Huo Chen's chest secretly and said, "Why, you've become thicker-skinned after going out."

Huo Chen was not being thick-skinned. After he said this, he regretted it. His whole face was hot. Fortunately, it was night time and his skin was dark so it couldn't be seen.

"Don't move! I plan to go to your house after the New Year to explain our relationship to your parents.

If you are willing, you can get engaged first. If you are not willing, you can wait for a while. It’s up to you to get married!" Huo Chen looked at Xu Ying nervously.

He saw how outstanding Xu Ying was, but he was just a rough man who made a living by speculation. When he thought of being with Xu Ying, a feeling of inferiority came over him.

As soon as Xu Ying raised her head, she met Huo Chen's eyes. Their gazes instantly intertwined, as if there was an invisible force that tightly connected them together.

"Or, forget it..." Huo Chen hadn't finished speaking.

Xu Ying's eyes flickered, her face flushed, and she nodded directly: "Yeah, OK."

Huo Chen's beating heart finally settled down, and the corners of his mouth curled up into a beautiful arc.

As long as she is willing, he will not let her down.

Considering Xu Ying's reputation, Huo Chen got up and went home after talking to her.

He rushed to the party on New Year's Eve without taking a break. He took the fireworks and the money he earned and went to find Xu Ying. Now he felt a little tired.

Xu Ying waved at him, turned around and continued to prepare to watch the movie.

Who knew that Xu Qingqing happened to see this scene, and walked up to Xu Ying and started to sneer: "Xu Ying, your taste is not that good.

Xu Jingjing is still looking for a factory director's secretary, but you are actually looking for a wolf cub as your partner."

"Who do you say is the wolf cub? Xu Qingqing, watch your mouth." Xu Ying's pretty face was full of anger. She couldn't bear to hear anyone say anything bad about Huo Chen.

What's more, he was someone she disliked.

Xu Qingqing didn't expect her to get angry all of a sudden. She was horrified but also a little unconvinced: "What's wrong? Am I wrong? He is the wolf cub.

He is vicious and has a weird temper. He follows a wolf every day. He looks so fierce and beats people. Be careful or he will beat you to death in the future. "Xu Qingqing cursed.

After saying this, she felt extremely comfortable. Xu Ying was so stupid. With her conditions, she could have found a partner who was a county cadre, but she didn't expect that she would fall in love with Huo Chen.

Then as long as she can find a partner in the county town, she will be better than Xu Ying.

If Xu Jingjing can find a secretary, then she must not be bad either. In addition to Secretary Yang, there is also a Secretary Zhang.

"Xu Qingqing, what are you doing? Are you bullying my daughter?" Xu's mother spotted the two people with her sharp eyes and rushed over, protecting Xu Ying behind her like a hen protecting her chicks.

Xu Qingqing was still a little scared when she saw Xu's mother. After all, Xu's mother was a she-devil before. Although she was much better now, her previous reputation was still there.

She thought of Huo Chen, and an idea suddenly came to her mind, and she lowered her head pitifully.
