Chapter 211: The First Day of 1981
Su He and Gu Jianhua were both a little drunk after the New Year's Eve dinner.
Su He had no intention of drinking too much, but Mingyue, Xiaomei and the others kept asking her to drink. She took small sips of white wine, while Mingyue and the others drank beer directly from the cup.
She just discovered today how much her nieces can drink.
"Jianhua, how come they can drink so much? Did they learn this in the past two years? I've never seen them drink before!"
Mingyue, Xiaomei, and Xueer each drank at least eight bottles of beer.
She drank four ounces of white wine, Maotai.
Su He felt a little dizzy, but his mind was still clear.
Gu Jianhua also drank a lot of beer. He said, "They will definitely vomit when they go back."
If you drink too much beer, you will vomit.
Su He, "No, I think they are all sober."
After we had dinner and drank, I helped clean up before leaving.
Gu Jianhua: "Of course he will vomit."
As expected, uncle Gu Jianhua guessed it right. Mingyue, Xiaomei, Xue'er and their families all went the same way together.
Originally, Xue'er and Xiaomei didn't want to vomit, but when they saw Mingyue vomiting halfway, they couldn't help but vomit too.
After vomiting, Mingyue waved her hand and said, "I won't drink next time."
Tang Zexu, "You can't drink that much, drink slowly, don't drink so fast." He drank one cup after another, and even if he drank just water, he would feel like vomiting.
Drinking too much is really uncomfortable, and these people decided not to drink anymore.
Su He and Gu Jianhua did not vomit and returned home safely. However, their four children did not come back and are now living with their grandparents.
The couple simply washed up and lay down on the bed to go to sleep. After drinking a little wine, they fell asleep easily and comfortably. This is how Suhe feels now.
Just as I was about to go to sleep, I heard Gu Jianhua ask, "Wife, is our daughter dating someone?"
Su He, "?"
"I said Changyi and brother-in-law Hongxing are getting along pretty well."
Su He, "No, I'm not dating anyone. Your girlfriend said she won't date anyone before she graduates from college."
"Maybe they like each other, but it's useless. They are young people with their own ideas. Let's not get involved."
Gu Jianhua, "Well, I was thinking that if Changyi is dating someone, you should remind her and don't be like Gu Li."
Although Gu Li was not her daughter, she was still a relative's child, and her pregnancy before marriage served as a warning to Gu Jianhua.
"I know." Su He believed her daughter.
Whether in Gu Li's past life or in the book, she never behaved like this, not to mention that she has taken anti-love pills.
I guess his mind is very clear.
"Let's go to bed."
After Su He finished speaking, he heard snoring next to him. Good guy, he fell asleep in seconds!
the next day.
New Year's Day.
Today they will first go to pay New Year's greetings to the four elders, then go to the home of the third brother and his wife, and then to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Lu. As for Hongxing, Xue'er, Mingyue and the others, they are all young people, and they came here to pay New Year's greetings.
Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, Changyi Changan can bring gifts to visit these sisters and brothers’ homes.
It was New Year, so people dressed festively. Su He wore a red woolen coat given to her by her third sister-in-law, and put on red lipstick, looking absolutely gorgeous.
Comrade Gu Jianhua couldn't help but praise, "My daughter-in-law is so pretty."
"Hey, this dress looks nice."
The couple went to the courtyard first with the gifts.
I went there by bike. It was windy and cold. Suzhou was very cold. The woolen coat looked nice, but it was not as warm as a cotton jacket.
She read in the later part of the book, which was the late 1980s. Rich people all bought cars. Having a car not only made travel convenient, but also saved them from having to blow cold wind when going out in the winter.
But a car is very expensive, at least hundreds of thousands.
And those big cell phones also cost around 10,000 yuan.
Expensive is really expensive.
But if you want to buy one, regardless of whether it is a car or a mobile phone, you have to install a phone at home.
No, buy a refrigerator for the bakery before you call, otherwise it will be very inconvenient in the summer.
In addition to the freezer, we also need to buy a washing machine and a TV for the four elders.
These were estimated to cost several thousand.
Department stores have televisions, refrigerators and washing machines. She asked about the price of a refrigerator and it seemed to be around two thousand, while televisions and washing machines were slightly cheaper.
The TV is around 900 yuan and the washing machine is around 500 yuan.
But it’s not cheap either, about the turnover of a bakery for two or three months.
Anyway, they can't afford it now, let's wait and see next year.
"Happy New Year, Mom and Dad!"
As soon as Su He and Gu Jianhua entered the room, the four kids came up to them and said, "Okay."
"Give you some New Year's money."
Su He took out four red envelopes from his pocket.
The children are older now and they are a little more financially well off this year, so they were given 50 yuan each as a New Year's gift.
Mother Gu said, "Xiao He's dress looks good."
Su He smiled and said, "Yes, Mom, my third sister-in-law gave it to me."
Mother Gu said, "It's beautiful and colorful." She likes this kind of bright red and green clothes, they look so beautiful when worn.
"You two haven't eaten yet, right? Is there anything in the rice pot?"
"Eat something." It's okay to be hungry, but you should at least eat something in the morning.
Not only did the four children receive red envelopes, but the four elders also received some. Su He gave each of them 200 yuan.
Su's mother joked, "You two must have made a fortune, giving us so much money!"
"That's just a bit, Mom. We'll give you more money next year."
Su He was drinking millet porridge.
Su's mother and Gu's mother looked at each other and smiled.
"You four, your father and I are going to your third uncle's house in a while, do you want to go?"
Su's mother said, "You two should go in the afternoon. Your third brother and his wife will come over to pay New Year's greetings later."
"Oh, right, I forgot about that." Su He patted his head.
She really drank too much yesterday, so her mind is not clear now.
Around nine o'clock, the third brother and his wife came over with gifts, and Su He, the aunt, gave red envelopes to both nephews.
We sat down and chatted for a while.
"Xiao He, are you guys going to Lu's house later? Let's go too. If you're going, let's go together." Feng Shuning suggested.
Su He: "Okay, let's go together later."
"Are you four going?" Su He asked the four children at home.
Changjun Changhuan, "Go!"
Chang Yi Chang An, "Let's go too."
Children like to visit relatives and friends during the New Year.
Su He and Gu Jianhua directly brought gifts from both families and visited her third brother and sister-in-law's home.
"Uncle and aunt, Happy New Year!" Everyone greeted Mr. and Mrs. Lu.
Father Lu and Mother Lu, "Okay, okay, please sit down."
After making hot tea for them, Mother Lu took out a few red envelopes and gave them to the children.
Changyi and Changan were embarrassed, "Grandma Lu, you don't have to give it to us. We are all adults."
Mother Lu: "It doesn't matter if he's an adult, he's still our child, take him."
As long as your own children are not married, you can give them red envelopes even if they are 30 years old.
Su He also gave a red envelope to her niece Su Mian. Su Mian said, "Thank you, auntie."
"Thank you, Aunt."
Feng Shuning also gave it.
Gu Jianhua asked Lu's father and mother, "Will my elder brother and sister-in-law come back next year?"
"I don't know. They are busy."
My daughter and son-in-law are too busy with work to spare time.
Su He, "It would be better to transfer the job to Beijing."
In the book, her elder brother and his wife were later transferred to the capital.
