"You, you, when have I ever let you suffer a loss..."
Gao Zhan smiled and stuffed a bulging red envelope into Gao Shanyue's hand. Then, before Su Niannian could react, a red envelope of the same weight fell into Su Niannian's palm.
Before the latter noticed, Gao Shanyue childishly rushed forward to snatch the things.
"I want to see if Grandpa is partial..."
She said she was taking red envelopes, but in fact she was teasing Su Niannian, making her laugh so hard that she fell backwards. The whole yard was filled with laughter. Fu Bao, who was far away, saw his mother being teased, and immediately put his hands on his hips, "Let go of my mother! You...you..."
Seeing that the instigator was his aunt who had always loved him, Fubao kept saying "you" for a long time but couldn't make any sense. His delicate face was exactly the replica of Su Niannian, but with a hint of Gu Zhiye's seriousness. He was so cute no matter how you looked at him!
Gao Shanyue walked forward with a smile, picked up Fubao and threw him on his shoulder, successfully scaring the little guy so hard that he cried loudly. Su Jianshan and others immediately ran to rescue him.
Even the potatoes were spinning around in a panic.
He kept pulling at his mother's clothes.
Xue Ya looked at her brother who was the center of attention with envy on her face. Before she knew it, Su Niannian held her hand.
The next second, in front of Wang Guifen, she said straight to the point: "Grandma, there is something I need to tell you. Zhiye and I have discussed it. From now on, we will be responsible for all of Yaya's affairs. Sister Zhaodi has no objection..."
Arranging Xue Ya to be adopted was originally a rights plan. Xue Ya was sensible and cute, and was deeply loved by Su Niannian. Before the cancer Jin Chuan was removed, she had no intention of sending him away. The best way was to keep him by her side.
Hearing her granddaughter's words, Wang Guifen's smile faded a little. On New Year's Eve, even if she deliberately didn't mention it, some things could not be ignored. Two days ago, the old lady made a special call to Ning County, asking the second son Su and his family to come and celebrate the New Year and have fun. Perhaps it was because Su Laoer found out that he was not his biological child, or perhaps it was because Zhaodi's children were too young to travel, so the other party rejected this proposal.
He never mentioned anything about Xue Ya.
It was as if all the burdens were thrown onto Su Niannian.
Wang Guifen was so upset about this hopeless family that she gritted her teeth and said, "Has Zhaodi become estranged from you? Or is she picking up sesame seeds and throwing watermelons? I'll call her and scold her to wake her up!"
"Grandma, this is Sister Zhaodi's and the others' choice, don't worry about it."
Su Niannian stopped it in time.
Old Master Gao also whispered to Wang Guifen that children and grandchildren have their own blessings, and there are many things they cannot interfere with. Of course, if Su Zhaodi and her husband really came to the capital, for Wang Guifen's sake, he would find a way to properly settle them down.
But the couple never set foot in this place, so he saved himself some trouble. His granddaughter was right, there are some things that you should not interfere with. They are short-sighted and don't see things as clearly as the younger generation.
Su Niannian understood better than anyone that her grandfather intended to support her elder brother, and that Su Jianshan would sooner or later have a share in the mining industry in the imperial capital.
But without their shackles, Wang Wei was like a fish in water in Ning County. It was impossible for the couple to give up everything and come to the imperial capital to start all over again. Su Jianshan had given reasonable suggestions a long time ago, but the other party rejected them all.
Su Zhaodi and her friends were straightforward. They thought that the current situation was closely related to Shen Xiu'e, who helped take care of the children. However, Su Niannian still agreed with what Wang Guifen said. If you throw away sesame seeds and pick up watermelons, you will get nothing, right? !
With Su Jianshan's emergence in Longhu Mountain, the Jin family cannot remain indifferent. Their focus will gradually shift to the imperial capital.
Share a piece of the pie with the Gao family.
As for Ning County,
If you can't find a good mineral vein, it will be a useless move!
Facing the risk of being laid off at any time,
"It's time for dinner!" As Su Jianshan ran out with a basket full of sticky rice dumplings, New Year's Eve officially began. The air was filled with sweet smells, which excited the two children to scramble to climb onto the table. Potato, with his short legs, couldn't reach it for a long time and almost cried. In the end, Xue Ya picked him up.
Fried crispy fish, braised pork, pork stewed with cabbage, mushroom chicken soup and other seasonal side dishes, this time the Gu family's New Year's Eve dinner was even more sumptuous than that of a state-owned restaurant. Gao Zhan took the lead in distributing red envelopes to the younger generations. In the end, no one expected that the big red envelope of Grandpa Gao would be drawn by Xue Ya.
The little girl swallowed the braised pork in her mouth and whispered, "Grandfather, I'll give it back to you..."
Wang Guifen narrowed her eyes and said, "Whoever draws it gets it. Why give it back?"
Gao Zhan nodded, and the others laughed so hard that they fell over. With Su Niannian's persuasion, Xue Ya finally happily stuffed the big red envelope into her pocket.
The New Year's Eve dinner ended only when the dishes were cold. Except for Grandpa Gao, who needed to pay attention to his diet, everyone else had a full belly. Gu Zhiye and Su Jianshan were still the ones staying up all night. Gao Shanyue had already led Su Niannian and a group of children to the door to set off firecrackers. The noise of the fireworks made the ignorant Potato so excited that he clapped his hands.
Su Jianshan added a piece of sweet potato to the fire, and he looked up at Gu Zhiye.
"Chino, is the crossbow any good?"
"It is suitable for jungle warfare. Old Yan likes it very much."
"You... I heard that you were going to participate in the border mission. Have you told your sister?"
Gu Zhiye glanced at Su Niannian who was setting off fireworks outside, and quietly put his index finger to his lips. Su Jianshan had a hint of worry between his brows, but there was nothing he could do but help keep it a secret. These things were confidential, and if he had not participated in the development of weapons, he would not have known a single thing.
As for the women in the family,
It’s enough to be safe and happy.
…
Jin family.
This year's New Year's Eve was unprecedentedly quiet. Gao Xianlan lost her appetite after hurriedly eating two bites. The words Su Niannian said were like a thorn in her throat, making her feel a little uncomfortable facing Jin Chuan. In addition, there was the crazy Gao Wan, with her face and neck covered in blood, which made her feel sick.
She went into the inner room on the pretext of having a headache and turned off the lights after a while.
There was a table full of dishes, and it could be seen that Gao Xianlan had put a lot of effort into them, but they were obviously not prepared for him. Jin Chuan took out an aluminum lunch box and packed up the still warm dishes that were his brother's favorite. He picked out all the dishes that Jin Lou liked, and he didn't hide anything from anyone. After all, Gao Wan had gone crazy, so there was nothing to hide.
After packing the things, Jin Chuan went out directly with an umbrella. His figure disappeared into the night and no one noticed. The door that was originally closed was quietly pushed open a crack.
A figure staggered after him.
