Chapter 375 New Year's Day
After eating, I went home.
When she got home, Gu Man was surprised to see Gu Ning carrying two boxes of things. She asked curiously, "Ningning, what are these things you have?"
"A New Year's gift from a friend." Gu Ning put the box on the coffee table, opened it, and took out the contents.
When Gu Man saw what was in the box, she couldn't help but exclaimed: "Ningning, your friend is so generous!"
None of these things are worthless.
"Yes! Very good friends." Gu Ning said, without explaining too much, because it was difficult to explain.
After looking at the gifts, Gu Man suddenly remembered something and said, "Oh, by the way, Mrs. Gu is paralyzed."
When talking about this matter, Gu Man was not very sad, but her mood was still affected, after all, the other party was her biological mother.
When Gu Ning heard the news, he did not feel any sympathy. Instead, he was happy to see it happen. He thought it was better to be paralyzed so that he would not be able to cause trouble to Gu Man and Gu Qing.
Since returning to City F, Gu Ning has always been busy and has no time to talk to Gu Man, so he has never tried to test her about Tang Yunfan.
But Chinese New Year is coming tomorrow, and she doesn’t want to bring up this matter now, as it will affect her mood and make her feel uneasy during the Chinese New Year.
The next day was the Chinese New Year.
Early in the morning, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting had a phone call and talked for about half an hour.
Leng Shaoting is now in his apartment, and will go to the old house in the afternoon to have the New Year's Eve dinner.
Thinking of the relationship between Gu Ning and the Gu family, Gu Ning couldn't help but feel distressed. If he didn't have a good relationship with Old Man Leng, she would definitely keep him to stay for the New Year.
In the morning, Gu Ning called Gao Yi and Qiao Ya to come over, and Jiang Xu's family also gathered at Gu Ning's house to celebrate the New Year.
After lunch, we started preparing the New Year’s Eve dinner.
Leng Shaoting had lunch with Xu Jingchen, Si Ming and other teammates who lived in Beijing. Since Leng Shaoting didn't have time to get together with them after the New Year, he got together with them in advance.
They knew that Leng Shaoting was eager to see Gu Ning after the Chinese New Year, so they all expressed their understanding.
Some people say that they are sad because they don’t have a girlfriend.
This person is naturally Xu Jingchen.
Siming and Qiu Yuxin have made further progress. Although they are not officially dating yet, it is only a matter of time.
Beijing, the old house of the Leng family.
Today, all the young and old of the Leng family gathered together. Everyone sat in the living room, chatting and talking about everything, except Leng Shaoting who had not returned yet.
Although the relationship between the second and third wives is not very good, it is not bad either. They can still talk to each other, especially in front of Old Master Leng, they are relatively harmonious.
"It's almost four o'clock, why hasn't Brother Shaoting come back yet?" Leng Shaoxun couldn't help but ask as he couldn't see Leng Shaoting for a long time.
When Leng Shaoting was mentioned, the people from the second branch of the Leng family felt uncomfortable, but they didn't dare to say anything.
However, as soon as these words fell, Leng Changzhi's happy voice came from outside the door: "The young master is back."
As soon as he heard that Leng Shaoting was back, Leng Shaoxun stood up abruptly and ran out in a hurry. When he saw Leng Shaoting, he said, "Brother Shaoting, why are you back so late? I thought you wouldn't come back for the New Year!"
"I was delayed by something," Leng Shaoting said.
Entering the hall, Leng Shaoting greeted the elders: "Grandpa, Second Uncle, Third Uncle, Second Aunt, Third Aunt."
"Shao Ting is back," everyone responded. Old Master Leng was nothing but enthusiastic and happy, Leng Yuanqian and Jiang Shuyuan were neither cold nor indifferent, and although Leng Yuanzhen and Yu Ying were not enthusiastic, they were also very warm.
"Brother Shao Ting is back," Leng Shaoming also greeted him. His attitude was not as indifferent as that of his own parents, but it was polite and distant, without any emotion at all.
"Brother Shao Ting," Leng Shaoxi also called out, with a very respectful attitude.
But Leng Shaojia simply stopped calling for help.
"Brother Shaoting, it's not time to eat yet, can you teach me a few tricks?" Leng Shaoxun immediately begged.
Before Leng Shaoting could say anything, he was scolded by Old Master Leng: "It's New Year's Day, why are you teaching me a few tricks? Just sit still."
As soon as Mr. Leng spoke, Leng Shaoxun didn't dare to say anything more and sat down obediently.
"Shao Ting, come and sit here." Old Master Leng immediately waved to Leng Shao Ting and asked him to sit next to him.
Leng Shaoting walked over and sat down next to Old Man Leng, asking him about his well-being.
Seeing that Old Master Leng cared so much about Leng Shaoting, the first family felt very uncomfortable.
The impulsive Leng Shaojia couldn't help but speak up, and complained for his brother: "Grandpa, you are biased. My brother has been away from home for a long time and now you don't care about him so much!"
Leng Shaoming did not work in the capital, but in a city near the capital. Although this county was not far from the capital, he seldom had time to come back.
Leng Shaoming himself is a capable person, and with the support of his family, he is already in a middle-level position at the age of only 25.
Of course, no matter how capable Leng Shaoming is, he is no match for Leng Shaoting.
"Shaojia, what nonsense are you talking about! When did grandpa stop caring about me? Don't talk nonsense." Hearing this, Leng Shaoming's face was very unhappy, and he immediately scolded. Grandpa Leng was good to Leng Shaoting, although he felt unbalanced in his heart, but he didn't want Grandpa Leng to think that he was stingy and selfish, so he never showed any dissatisfaction because of this.
Leng Shaojia's words were obviously just to bring him bad luck.
"That's right!" Leng Shaojia didn't know what Leng Shaoming was thinking, and said unconvincedly.
"Shaojia, no one will think you are dumb if you don't speak." Leng Yuanqian also scolded. It was inappropriate for Leng Shaojia to say this.
Even though Leng Shaoming and Leng Yuanqian both criticized Leng Shaojia, they couldn't stop Old Master Leng from being dissatisfied with Leng Shaojia. He looked at her unhappily and sternly said, "You've always been the one who complained the most. Do you feel that your life is too comfortable and you're just looking for trouble?"
Old Master Leng doesn't care as much about Leng Shaoming as he does about Leng Shaoting, but Leng Shaoting lost his parents when he was young, so if he doesn't care more, no one will care.
Their family is so good, it would be fine if they didn't care about their nephews and brothers, but they were calculating. The more they calculated Leng Shaoting, the better he would treat them, otherwise he would think Leng Shaoting was easy to bully!
Leng Shaojia was not convinced, but he did not dare to refute Old Man Leng, so he could only lower his head and remain silent.
At this time, Jiang Shuyuan did not dare to defend Leng Shaojia.
In F city, at six o'clock in the afternoon, a large table full of dishes was ready in Gu Ning's house. Seven people gathered around the table, talking and laughing. It was so lively that even the serious Gao Yi and Qiao Ya couldn't help but reveal sincere smiles.
