Chapter 429 The Taste of Chinese New Year



After a good sleep at home, Linglong got up, had some breakfast, and rushed to the company.

The company is also about to go on holiday. She, the big boss, has been away all the time, and the company's New Year benefits have been postponed and have not been distributed yet.

After leaving the company, Linglong held a meeting with the heads of various departments of the company.

After the meeting, various New Year goods were distributed.

Linglong's company has performed very well this year, so the benefits are very good.

This year, prices of all kinds of goods have been rising, and people's living expenses have increased a lot.

The impact is not that big for high-income people like Linglong, but it is still a big impact for ordinary families.

Furthermore, with the increasingly sluggish state-owned enterprises, many Zhongjiang employees are having a hard time making ends meet at home. After all, not everyone is a middle or senior manager with a relatively high income.

Zhongjiang’s New Year goods include rice, flour, grain, oil, as well as hairtail, pork and other good things.

It is difficult to transport all the New Year's goods home with just one bicycle.

All the Zhongjiang employees are smiling today.

In addition to New Year’s goods, Zhong Jiang also has the annual New Year’s red envelopes.

The amount varies depending on the position.

But even the lowest-level employees received red envelopes that were almost equivalent to a month's salary.

With New Year's goods and red envelopes, Zhong Jiang's employees and their families can have a happy New Year.

Linglong hadn't appeared in the company for a long time. She was so busy that she didn't have time to eat at home at noon, so she had to eat in the company cafeteria.

That’s right, Zhong Jiang now has its own employee cafeteria.

Linglong was busy until she got off work in the afternoon, and finally she finished all her work and was able to go home.

As soon as she left the company, the assistant her mother had hired drove over.

Linglong doesn't have to worry about driving, she just needs to sit in the back seat and rest, which is very comfortable.

Today she came to the company and brought her new assistant with her. The new assistant immediately stunned everyone in the company.

Even Linglong's secretaries had a deep sense of crisis and began to perform well.

It’s not that the secretaries didn’t work seriously before, but Linglong is good-natured and not a strict boss, so it’s inevitable that the secretaries would be a little lax.

However, when a talented female assistant with strong comprehensive strength arrives, the secretaries are afraid that they will not perform well and be outdone. It would be bad if they are too strict and then leave.

Because I can be a secretary to Linglong, the female boss.

The secretaries don't have to deal with gossip and rumors about sex, they have high incomes and are respected at home. They are no worse off than their brothers and sisters who have stable jobs in their companies, and they are even envied.

In the past two years, as some state-owned enterprises went bankrupt, the sacred glory of the iron rice bowl of the wealthy family was also broken.

Those who are open-minded have long stopped caring about face and believe that making money is the most important thing.

After taking a nap in the car, Linglong returned home.

Both of my children are on winter vacation, so it’s not lonely at all.

Zheng Tiansen was not very busy, so he went home on time after 12 o'clock.

Linglong was in a rare good mood and even went into the kitchen to cook.

After going to the company and having a busy day, she also took a New Year holiday for herself and never went out again.

This time it was New Year’s Eve.

As soon as they got up in the morning, the family drove to the compound.

As for the female assistant assigned to her by her mother, Linglong felt that she didn't need her during the Chinese New Year. After asking her mother, she let the female assistant and several people from her mother's side take a plane to celebrate the Chinese New Year.

Naturally, Wei Qingyin still had someone staying by her side.

Without Linglong picking her up, Wei Qingyin took a car to the compound by herself.

They had already agreed to spend the New Year together, so Wei Qingyin was not pretentious.

Because of the generous gifts she had given before, everyone in the Zheng family, young and old, liked her very much.

When Zeng Yu and the others were making dumplings, Wei Qingyin, who basically never went into the kitchen, also asked to join in.

"I haven't made dumplings for many years. I don't know if I can still make them well." She smiled.

The last time she made dumplings was when her husband was still alive, and they made them together during the Chinese New Year.

Congcong was playing at home with his younger siblings, and the noise made by Anan and Feifei was enough to blow the roof off the house.

Whether it was Linglong or Zheng Tianxin, they would speak up from time to time to suppress the situation.

This time, the men in the family did not join in making dumplings. Zeng Yu thought they were an eyesore and sent them away.

Look, Zheng Tiansen is accompanying his old father; the old father is playing chess, and Zheng Tianbao and Xiao Jiang are just spectators.

After a while, Mr. Deng also came over.

More and more people are coming to the Zheng family to celebrate the New Year.

Zheng Tianxin and Xiao Jiang had already agreed to spend the New Year in each of their homes, taking turns spending the year in Beijing and the year in Xiao Jiang's hometown. While Xiao Jiang's brother, sister-in-law, and sister weren't completely troubled, there were only occasional minor disturbances, which Xiao Jiang, with his early experience, could easily handle.

In short, everyone in the family has changed.

By the time the dumplings were wrapped and put into the pot, the children in the living room had already started to cry out that they were hungry.

Wei Qingyin looked at her grandchildren and felt regretful towards her.

"If it weren't for family planning, it would be better if the family had more children."

Whether it is a son or a daughter, their conditions are good and they can afford to support them. What a pity.

Wei Qingyin just smiled and said nothing.

She has been outside for a long time, and her view on things is somewhat different from Zeng Yu's.

She thinks it's great that her daughter now has a son and a daughter, they love each other, and they have their own careers.

If there are more, I'm afraid my daughter's own people will be affected.

When it comes to the younger generation, Zeng Yu couldn't help but look down on the little boy Zheng Tianbao.

She couldn't complain to the younger generations in the family, so it was just right for her to be with Wei Qingyin, her relative.

Wei Qingyin was more enthusiastic about this matter.

"Have you been unable to find a suitable girl? If Tianbao from the mainland doesn't think she's suitable, I can introduce him to girls from other places, such as Hong Kong, Taiwan, or even abroad."

The scope was so wide that even Zeng Yu was shocked.

"Forget about foreign wives. Even if I want to marry one, it's better to marry a Chinese one." She doesn't like the whole foreign daughter-in-law thing.

Zeng Yu and Zheng Tianxin, the sister-in-law, were listening to the conversation between their two mothers and were laughing and whispering in each other's ears.

When Auntie Ye said the dumplings were cooked, everyone started to eat.

One pot of dumplings is not enough for so many people.

The three children were fed first, and then the adults each had a few to try.

But dumplings cook quickly.

When there are more people around, everything tastes better.

It’s not like the family had made dumplings before, but Linglong just thought that dumplings during Chinese New Year were more delicious.

After eating dumplings, everyone sat in groups and played their own games.

Linglong and her friends started playing mahjong.

The three children watched TV.

Before the Spring Festival Gala, the three children watched the videotapes. Thanks to the player Wei Qingyin had given them before, it added a lot of fun to the family.

It was almost time for dinner, and Linglong and the others went into the kitchen to prepare the New Year's Eve dinner.

In fact, given their family's financial situation, they could have the New Year's Eve dinner at a big restaurant or have someone cook it at home.

But Linglong just likes the feeling of making the New Year’s Eve dinner by herself.
