The consequences of being blocked by Jia Gui can be imagined. Even though Zheng Gan and Lin Hao begged hard, he still fell drunk under the table.
So when Zheng Gan went to deliver New Year's goods to Jia Teng and Lin Zhihong the next day, he was careful. He put the things at the gate, turned around and ran away, and only called them after he got home.
But I can't get drunk anymore. There are still many people I need to give gifts to, including the two captains, Master Jiang, Zhao Xing and Liu Feng from Wei City.
Isn't this the trouble with the Chinese New Year? You have to give gifts to people you have a good relationship with. After you send it to their house, they want a return gift, and then you have to tear it apart. It's really annoying.
Moreover, the gifts must be carefully considered and must be commensurate with the other person's status. For those with ordinary family conditions, naturally, they should give something of high value, but for those with high status and wealth, they need to get something more novel, so the mountain products brought back from Yunnan and Dian came in handy.
After Zheng Gan finished everything, he was exhausted and slumped on the sofa, unwilling to get up.
"Don't sit there anymore, hurry up, get up and let's go to the county to buy New Year's goods." Qiao Xin urged?
"New Year's goods? Didn't I buy them all? I delivered them to every household." Zheng Gan said in confusion.
"We haven't bought any New Year's goods at home. We don't have any peanuts, melon seeds, candies, or anything like that. Let's go to the county shopping mall and supermarket to buy them. It's already the 28th day of the lunar year, and we haven't prepared everything for New Year's Eve."
Zheng Gan slapped his forehead when he heard this. He was so busy that he really forgot about his family.
Previously, my father-in-law Qiao Zhengdong asked them to prepare these things, but Zheng Gan pretended to be cool and said they didn’t need them. Now he really regrets it.
......
For children, the Chinese New Year is the most fun time. Except for not being able to sleep in, there are places to play everywhere. But Zheng Gan is not like that. He gets up before six o'clock to start pasting couplets and then helps to clean up.
This year, just like the previous Chinese New Years, Lin Hao's family and their family still celebrated together. At Qiao Xin's suggestion, they even invited Jiang Xiaolin's mother and younger brothers and sisters to come together.
So Zheng Gan's house was already very lively starting at eight o'clock in the morning. There were the old couple Qiao Zhengdong, Lin Gang and his wife, grandma's family, Jiang Xiaolin's family, plus him and Xiao Yueyue, a total of sixteen people.
As soon as the ladies entered the door, they went straight to the kitchen to prepare a sumptuous lunch. Unlike other places, people in Yama County eat very well at noon and just have simple dumplings in the evening, so the lunch needs to be prepared well.
Zheng Gan had previously suggested that they go to Tianweilou for lunch, but was unanimously opposed by everyone, who said that the New Year should be celebrated at home as that would create a better atmosphere.
As for the ingredients for lunch, they were naturally very rich. After Zheng Gan posted the couplets in the morning, he went to Wang Dongqiang and brought back almost all the top-quality seafood in his store. These things alone cost 20,000 yuan, and there were also some other top-quality meat ingredients, etc. Today's New Year's Eve dinner was a huge expense.
The cooking in the kitchen is in full swing, and the gentlemen outside are chatting and drinking tea. Although the New Year atmosphere is getting weaker year by year, the atmosphere is still pretty good.
"You're leaving after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month?" Lin Gang asked. "Which country are you going to this time?"
"Let's go to Xiaorizi. I heard that the fishing grounds in Hokkaido are pretty good." Zheng Gan said. The decision on which country to go to for fishing was only made in the past few days.
The current situation in West Africa seems to be a bit unstable. Song Lei even called and said that he would try not to go there if possible, so he chose Xiaori as the place, and it was not particularly far away.
If you run at full speed from here, it will take about three or four days to get there.
Moreover, there are quite a few Chinese people living there. Zhao Xing had already found local buyers in advance, so he could just start working after he got there.
"That's fine. It's not far away, and it's convenient to come back. I can even come back every two or three months to rest for a few days." Lin Gang said with a smile.
Zheng Gan nodded. It was indeed true. If he really missed his wife and children one day, he could come back to see them and take a rest.
"Be careful when you go there, and don't let those people bully you. Don't forget that we have a feud." Qiao Zhengdong said seriously.
"Don't worry, Dad. I will definitely not let them have an easy time. I once taught them a lesson when I was in Beijing. I know their true nature very well." Zheng Gan didn't expect that his father-in-law had some angry young man attributes.
It is very obvious that people who live a simple life are the kind who bully the weak and fear the strong. They appear to be very polite on the surface, but they are very disdainful in their hearts.
"If you go out with me, you must protect your brother well. If anything happens to him, don't come back." Jiang Fusheng threatened Jiang Feng.
"No, Dad. Although I will definitely follow my brother well, I am also your son, right? Isn't it a bit bad for you to scare me like this all the time?" Jiang Feng felt very aggrieved.
When Jiang Fusheng heard that his son was going to resist, he instantly flew into a rage, "You think you've grown wings now, and you want to rebel, right?"
Fortunately, the ladies had already started bringing the food to the table, otherwise this kid would definitely have been given a good beating by Jiang Fusheng.
There were more than twenty delicious dishes on the table. Fortunately, Zheng Gan was smart and prepared a large round table, otherwise it would be impossible to put them all on the table.
"The new year is here. Let's all raise our glasses and wish all of us good health and wish these young people success in their careers!" Qiao Zhengdong sat in the main seat, picked up the glass and began to speak.
After drinking the first glass of wine, everyone started to eat. There was a table full of delicious food, including everything that flew in the sky, ran on the ground, and swam in the water. Jiang Xiaolin's younger brothers and sisters were especially at a loss as to what to eat.
Speaking of Jiang Xiaolin's family, their living conditions have improved greatly since they got married. Lin Hao simply bought a house in the city for his mother-in-law to live in, and took care of all the decoration, appliances, furniture, etc.
Now her younger brothers and sisters have money to go to school, and her mother's illness is being treated, so she is very grateful to Lin Hao and naturally treats his family better.
This reunion dinner lasted from noon to around three in the afternoon. Most of the men were drunk, and only the child, Jiang Feng, was relatively normal.
The ladies began to clean up and prepare to make dumplings.
