"Aunt, I understand. You don't have to worry. I know my own affairs well. If I have something confirmed, I'll bring it back for you to check."
After that, the two left the bedroom and went to the living room to continue chatting. Soon, Wang's father and Chen Yin brought the mutton hot pot, spicy yellow croaker, sausage and bacon, and braised beef with bamboo shoots to the table.
"It's time to eat." Everyone sat around the dining table.
Wang Yitong poured drinks for everyone. His eldest uncle and fourth uncle-in-law didn't drink because they had to drive. Only his father and second uncle-in-law drank. Wang Yitong opened a bottle of Wuliangye liquor for his father and second uncle-in-law.
The second uncle took a sip and said, "It's a good wine. This good wine has a different taste. I'll drink the wine Tongtong gave me slowly after I get it home."
After hearing this, Wang's father said, "It's delicious, let's have a few more drinks. Anyway, you and I don't need to drive, so drink as much as you want."
Fourth uncle began to say: "Come, let us raise our glasses together and wish everyone all the best in the new year."
Everyone raised their glasses and drank it all in one gulp.
The family began to enjoy a delicious lunch.
"This mutton hotpot is so delicious, Dad. Your cooking skills are getting better and better." Wang Yitong praised.
"Haha, eat more if you like it." Wang's father said with a smile.
The lunch was held in a pleasant atmosphere. Everyone chatted while eating, sharing their recent situation and plans for the New Year. Wang Yitong also talked about her work and life in Shanghai, as well as her outlook for the future.
Everyone ate and chatted, the atmosphere very harmonious. After dinner, Chen Yin and Chen Yan cleaned up the dishes together, while Wang Yitong cut some fruit. She brought the fruit to the living room and said to her second and fourth aunts, "Second aunt, fourth aunt, I also bought some cordyceps and bird's nests and left them at my mother's place in Chengdu. Remember to pick them up when you return to Chengdu."
"Oh, Tongtong, you are such a filial child. You bought so many things." Second aunt Chen Yan said with emotion.
"Second aunt and fourth aunt, you work hard and are so kind to me. Of course I have to be filial to you." Wang Yitong said with a smile.
"You are such a sweet-talker, kid." Fourth aunt Chen Fang also said with a smile.
Everyone sat in the living room, eating fruit and chatting. After a short rest, Chen Jie said he would send Chen Chuan to his mother's place before returning to Chengdu. Fourth Aunt said they had to rush back to Yang Yang's grandfather's house. The two families left with the gifts Wang Yitong had bought them.
Only my second aunt's family was left in the house. My second uncle and my father were drinking and resting on the sofa. Wang Yitong took her mother Chen Yin, my second aunt, and Wen Tian out of the community to go shopping.
Although Wang Yitong has her own clothing store, all women love shopping.
Wang Yitong and her group arrived at the mall, which was bustling with activity and bustle during the Lunar New Year holiday. They first visited the women's clothing section. Wang Yitong hadn't brought any clothes with her, but Chen Yin had already prepared some company-designed clothes in the right sizes for her daughter in Leshi's wardrobe. She and Wen Tian helped their mother and second aunt choose clothes, trying on each piece until they each found their favorites.
Chen Yin also picked out two new thick cotton coats for Wang Yitong's grandparents. After seeing this, Wang Yitong also bought two sets of warm clothes.
Next, they went to the shoe section. Wang Yitong bought a pair of warm fleece-lined ankle boots for herself and her mother, and a pair of comfortable flats for her second aunt. Wen Tian, after trying them on, was so pleased that she bought them too. Chen Yin, knowing the elderly's sizes, also bought two pairs of fleece-lined flat-soled soft-sole leather shoes for Wang Yitong's grandparents.
After buying clothes and shoes, they went to the cosmetics section. Wang Yitong didn't usually wear makeup, but she knew her mother and second aunt liked it, so she helped them pick out some cosmetics, such as lipstick, eye shadow, and blush. After trying them on, her mother and second aunt liked them very much and bought them too.
Finally, they went to the jewelry section. Wang Yitong saw a beautiful necklace and wanted to buy it for her mother as a gift. Her mother liked the necklace very much, but she thought it was too expensive and didn't want Wang Yitong to spend the money. Wang Yitong saw her mother's thoughts and said to her, "Mom, you've worked hard all the time. This necklace suits you very well. Please accept it." After hearing what Wang Yitong said, her mother accepted the necklace and hugged her tightly.
The group went to the supermarket again. Wang Yitong was going back to her hometown to visit her parents tomorrow, so she bought some convenient food. Her hometown was in the mountains and far from the city. She picked out bread, noodles, milk, soft candies, and apples with long shelf lives.
After shopping, Wang Yitong and her group put their bags in the car. Although they were tired, they were very happy.
Wang Yitong put the things for her grandparents in the car and took the rest back to the bedroom. In the evening, she continued to eat the lunch. In the evening, Wang's father and second uncle did not drink any more alcohol, but drank Wang Laoji.
After dinner in the evening, Wang Yitong and his family sat in the living room and chatted.
Everyone chatted for a while, but it was getting late, so my second aunt and her family got up and left. Wang Yitong and her mother saw them off to the door and watched them drive away.
After returning home, Wang Yitong and her mother began to prepare for going back to her hometown to visit her grandparents tomorrow. They packed their luggage carefully, sorting out the things they needed to bring one by one to make sure nothing was left out. After packing, Wang Yitong thought of her grandparents who were far away in Shanghai, so she called them. A familiar voice came from the other end of the phone. Wang Yitong talked to them about her recent life and shared some interesting things. Her grandparents also asked about her work and health with concern. After chatting for a while, Wang Yitong chatted with her uncle again. Her uncle asked about her New Year's plans and urged her to take care of her health and work hard.
After chatting with her uncle, Wang Yitong hung up the phone and went to take a shower. Feeling a little tired, she lay down on the bed, picked up her phone, and sent a text message to Xu Chengwei: "Happy New Year, Goodnight." She hoped the message would bring him good luck in the new year.
Then, she sent text messages to Zhou Yinuo, Lin Mu’s friend Fan Feifei, and high school friend Zheng Shuangshuang, wishing them a happy new year and hoping that everything goes well for them in the new year.
Before the New Year, Wang Yitong arranged for people to send New Year gifts to partners, Xu Chengwei's friends, and other cooperating units.
After sending the text message, Wang Yitong sent a Happy New Year message to the company group, thanking the company employees for their support and help over the past year. She also sent red envelopes to the company group and her family and friends group, hoping that everyone would be happy in the new year.
After sending out the red envelopes, Wang Yitong felt a little sleepy, so she turned off her phone, closed her eyes and prepared to go to sleep. This day was really tiring, and she needed a good rest to welcome the arrival of the new year.
