Chapter 145: Festival
In the next few days, the two prepared everything they needed for the New Year, and New Year's Day arrived.
He Mingcheng got up in the morning and started to pack up and cook.
Of course, this is what he does every day now.
Chen Yi got up, changed her clothes, and then helped serve the food.
After sitting down, he asked, "Are you going there today?"
Both of them knew where "that side" was, so there was no need to say it explicitly.
Chen Yi could usually guess that He Mingcheng was unwilling to associate with the He family, but since he did not cut off contact, he had to be nicer.
Her situation was rare. After all, He's parents sent He Mingcheng away because they couldn't get enough food in the city.
When I thought about answering it again, I wasn’t as excited as I was at the beginning.
Even if they are biological children, there will always be a gap after so many years.
But even though they are not together, she still cares about He Mingcheng and gives him all the material things.
At least it’s much stronger than the Chen family.
Of course, this doesn’t mean that He Mingcheng will be happy like this, which is also wrong.
Chen Yi didn't understand the He family's affairs, so her attitude towards the He family depended entirely on He Mingcheng's attitude.
Just do your best and don't worry too much about other things.
He Mingcheng was silent for a moment, then said, "Let's go at noon and eat first."
Hearing this, Chen Yi didn't ask any more questions and ate obediently.
In the morning, the two of them had some porridge and steamed buns, and some fried cabbage, which was enough to satisfy their hunger.
I can't eat anything early in the morning.
After dinner, Chen Yi and He Mingcheng went out to buy some things.
The Chinese New Year is just a few days away, and there are more people on the streets.
Not only the buyers, but all the stores put their products outside because they couldn't sell them all.
Only a fool would set up a counter. You have to know that selling things also counts as performance.
Just like the supply and marketing cooperatives, if they sell a lot of things, their leaders will have face when they go out to attend meetings.
Therefore, even though the salespeople are reluctant to go out in this cold winter, they have to come out and sell goods; there is no other way.
Chen Yi bought some snacks in case there were people coming to her house during the New Year. He Mingcheng would notice if she didn’t buy these things.
After all, the two of them spend more time at home at this time, and they also have to take a holiday during the Chinese New Year.
He Mingcheng went to the counter and bought two bags of pastries and two bottles of mid-range liquor.
It’s not that he can’t afford better, but he feels it’s unnecessary.
After the two of them finished buying things, they pushed their bicycles away, went home to deliver the things, and then rode their bicycles to He's house separately.
Shopping also wastes a lot of time, and when the two of them come back, it’s almost time.
When we arrived at the He family, only the old couple were at home, along with a nanny, who were preparing food.
Seeing them coming, He Jianlin's expression looked much better. He had been frowning just now, as if someone owed him something.
After saying hello, the two sat opposite He Jianlin.
Zhang Ying said, "Everyone will be here soon, let's eat some melon seeds first."
On the table was a small bowl of roasted melon seeds, peanuts, and a few apples.
The apple looked small and wilted, so Chen Yi didn't move. There were plenty of big red apples in the space, and she didn't like fruits very much, so she had whatever she wanted in the space.
Not long after, there was a knock on the door outside and several people came in with their children.
Chen Yi greeted them and then glanced at He Mingyuan and Zhao Xue behind them.
The last time these two had a huge argument, but it was a long time ago.
Judging from their condition, they are probably still not well.
He Mingyuan no longer had the arrogance he had last time. Instead, he was surprisingly quiet. He didn't say a word. After saying hello, he sat on the sofa in the corner.
That's really strange.
But Zhao Xue did the same. She spoke a few words to the child, found a seat to sit down, and didn't say anything else.
The nanny is cooking alone in the kitchen, and if she wants to help, there will be no one to help.
It is even more impossible for Chen Yi to go. If no one else is going, why should she go?
Wouldn't it be cheap to help as soon as I walked in? No one else went.
This isn't the first time they've come here, but I've never seen them help with cooking.
In that case, she wouldn't go either.
In addition to the sound of children playing, He Jianlin was also asking about the work of his three sons.
Although the two of them are in the same factory, they are not in the same department, so they don’t know each other very well.
The automobile factory is very large and has many departments, so we can't always ask this and that.
He Mingyuan sat in the corner with a very cold expression and a worried look, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Zhang Ying saw that he was far away from here, so he walked over and asked, "Mingyuan, what's wrong?"
He Mingyuan raised his head and shook his head, "It's okay."
Even if he had something wrong, he wouldn't tell anyone. This lesson is enough.
After he filed for divorce last time, Zhao Xue returned to her parents' home. The next day, her father-in-law came to question her, but there was no anger on his face.
He Mingyuan usually hangs out with people of similar age, so how can he tell the status of his elders?
So even though he was unhappy, he was still scared.
Zhao Du also told He Mingyuan very clearly that divorce was absolutely impossible.
If they divorce, the child must go to the Zhao family.
In fact, He Mingyuan didn't care about these things at all. It didn't matter whether it was a child or not. It was just a girl. If it was a son, he could still fight for it.
But when he returned home that night, he was beaten by He Jianlin directly, and the slap was much harder than that day.
And she said that divorce was impossible, and if they divorced, she would never be able to return to the He family and would not be able to live in the house anymore.
He Mingyuan was shocked by He Jianlin's attitude and did not dare to mention divorce.
After all, he has nothing after the divorce. How can he live?
He also hated the Zhao family in his heart. It must be Zhao Du who went to find He Jianlin, otherwise why would he be so angry?
He Mingyuan sat in the corner, his expression constantly changing, as if he was changing his face.
Everyone else in the room noticed that this man was abnormal, but no one said anything.
After all, today is New Year's Day. There's no point in saying those things. Some people are too embarrassed to say anything.
Even after what happened before, he still hasn't given up the idea of divorce. How can anyone persuade him?
As the eldest brother, He Mingde grew up with him and knew better what his younger brother was thinking.
Nothing to do except play!
If you have any ambition, you won't end up working in that movie theater, where you get a fixed salary and no prospects for promotion.
If there is a snack, then He Mingcheng's position will belong to He Mingyuan.
It's a pity that this person is a hopeless case. He is a complete idiot!
It was almost twelve o'clock and the food was finally ready.
It's not easy for the nanny either. She's so tired that her head is covered in sweat and her face is red.
There was nothing she could do about it. She didn’t say anything for the salary she was getting. She just served the food with a smile.
Chen Yi sat next to her and saw that Zhang Ying was dressed neatly and had curly hair.
It’s no wonder that women will dress themselves up when their hands are free.
