Well, his days would indeed be sweet with her around.
Jiang Meilan knew what he was thinking as soon as she saw his eyes. She smiled and said, "You don't need any sweetness, you are still young and don't have a partner. Mom only hopes that you study hard, get into college, and become a promising person!"
"Of course, Jin Xi is very smart, it won't be a problem for him to get into university, maybe he can even become the top scorer!"
Old man Shen smiled and said to his four boys, "Did you hear that? You should work harder! Study hard and go to college!"
The four boys answered in unison, "Got it!"
They are doing well in their studies and are among the top students in their grade.
After Fubao distributed the dumplings, he sat down next to Old Mrs. Shen again, and the family officially began to eat the New Year’s Eve dinner.
Looking at the sumptuous meal on the table, Old Lady Shen was filled with emotion, happy but also a little sad. The Shen family had been poor for decades, and she thought that this was how life would be, but she didn't expect such a big change to happen. It was really a blessing from God!
She thought about it carefully and felt that all this was thanks to Nannan. If she were to say what the greatest blessing of the Shen family was, it would definitely be having such a good child like Fubao.
Old Mrs. Shen tried her best to pick up the best and tenderest parts for Fubao. Seeing her eating with gusto, she felt happier than eating honey.
The whole family enjoyed the sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner. The newly bought tape recorder came in handy. It could not only listen to the radio, but also play festive songs, which made the atmosphere even better.
Old Man Shen and Shen Jianlin ate and drank together. He had never tasted such good liquor before, so he was a little tipsy and started talking more.
Facing the whole family, Old Man Shen said with emotion: "I wonder if you all have a feeling that our family has become better since Nannan was born. You see, I was almost dying of illness at the beginning, and it was Nannan who called my soul back, and my legs miraculously healed. After that, our family began to prosper, and our luck was always very good, whether it was collecting herbs or hunting, the luck was so good that it was hard to describe. Nannan picked up a gold ingot again, which is the foundation of our family's wealth!"
"If it weren't for Nannan's gold ingots, would our family be able to contract so many acres of land, have a big fish pond, renovate the house, and buy new appliances and furniture? No way! Not to mention becoming a millionaire, I guess we'd have to eat the same New Year's Eve dinner as in previous years!"
"Nannan, grandpa offers you a toast!" Old man Shen raised his glass towards Fubao and smiled kindly and dotingly.
Fubao quickly picked up his cup, which contained coconut juice.
It is said that this is popular in the city recently, along with a kind of sports drink, AD calcium milk, etc. Orange soda is almost out of fashion.
Fubao clinked his cup with Grandpa's and smiled at him adorably, "Grandpa, our family will definitely be better in the future!"
"Okay, then I wish our family a prosperous future, and that our daughter grows up healthy and safe!"
Old Mrs. Shen curled her lips, "Tsk, I don't want my daughter to grow up. When a child grows up, it's like growing wings and flying away from home! I wish my daughter would always be a little baby, so that she can stay by my side forever."
Fubao's heart moved, a warm current spread out, and even his eyes felt a little hot.
She suddenly didn't want to go back to heaven anymore. She wanted to be with her grandparents, parents and brothers forever, never to be separated!
