Chapter 186 Things Have Changed



Gu Wei also received the love from his woman, raised his eyebrows, and exchanged glances with her.

Zhou Wenbo felt that he was really unlucky.

Not only do they have to be forced to eat dog food (a slang term for witnessing public displays of affection), but they also have to spend real money on it.

All three won, only he lost.

However, seeing his parents smiling and his sister looking radiant and happy, his guilt for causing his family troubles due to his own actions dissipated somewhat.

Therefore, Zhou Wenbo looked at Gu Wei with gratitude.

This former colleague is now my brother-in-law.

Gu Wei noticed his brother-in-law's gaze and asked him with a puzzled look what he meant.

Zhou Wenbo smiled and shook his head, glanced at the mahjong tiles on the table, and deliberately played a three of bamboo.

Gu Wei could easily tell that his brother-in-law was deliberately giving him a winning hand, and he immediately pushed over his tiles happily, shouting, "I won!"

Mr. Zhou laughed and teased, "You really know how to fire a cannon."

“Yes,” Zhou Wenyi covered her mouth and laughed, “It seems my brother really likes to send us money.”

Zhou Wenbo waved his hand dismissively, "Hey, this little bit of money is nothing."

Everyone continued shuffling, stacking, and playing cards in a cheerful atmosphere.

Laughter frequently emanated from the recreation room, creating a joyful atmosphere.

During the Spring Festival, the time spent eating, drinking, and having fun always seems to fly by.

After the Lantern Festival, Gu Wei's Qingcheng Mountain Villa officially opened for business.

He is committed to creating a comprehensive hotel that integrates tourism, accommodation, catering, and fruit picking.

Among them, a nostalgic restaurant was specially set up, decorated in the style of the 1970s and 1980s, with many old objects and old photos.

Perhaps it's because with economic development and technological progress, people's living standards have improved, and everything has become faster-paced.

People have become indifferent to each other, and human nature has become less pure. Most people only care about their own affairs and mind their own business.

Therefore, many people are very nostalgic, reminiscing about the time when they didn't care about gains and losses, and savoring the bittersweet days of the past.

Therefore, Gu Wei's nostalgic restaurant was very well received.

This attracted many customers who brought their families.

Not only can elderly people and middle-aged people find memories and feelings of the past here, but some young people can also realize that the 1970s and 1980s were not quite the same as they imagined.

The resort's business is getting back on track, and the New Year is just around the corner.

The last New Year of the 1980s was of extraordinary significance.

That year's Spring Festival Gala was also very well done.

Zhao Lirong and Hou Yaowen collaborated on the skit "A Heroic Mother's Day," and the line "Sima smashed the jar" and her simple and honest old lady image won the hearts of countless viewers.

Song Dandan also made her Spring Festival Gala debut with the skit "The Lazy Man's Blind Date," and her outstanding performance made her memorable to everyone.

The sentence spoken in a local dialect, "My name is Wei Shufen, female, 29 years old, and still unmarried," left a deep impression.

This year's Spring Festival Gala created an extremely moving scene, with Wei Wei singing "Dedication of Love" with deep emotion, achieving excellent live audience reception and social impact.

Gu Wei made arrangements in advance, returned to the forest area, and spent the New Year with his grandparents.

Gu Jianguo and Li Guizhi prepared a very generous amount of New Year's goods, just like in previous years.

Gu Hongjie was especially looking forward to Gu Wei's return for the New Year.

Seeing him return, they were so happy that they performed Yangko dance and opera.

"I was wondering when you would be coming back."

Looking at Gu Hongjie, who had grown taller and had grown a mustache like fine hairs on his upper lip, showing signs of becoming a man, Gu Wei felt a mix of emotions.

In just a few years, he witnessed the process of growing up from a young boy.

"Really? Would you be especially disappointed if I didn't come back for Chinese New Year this year?"

"That's for sure." Gu Hongjie thought for a moment and then quickly added, "However, we can understand if you can't come back for the New Year. After all, you still have family members like your parents and grandparents, and you can't always not spend the New Year with them."

Actually, Gu Hongjie's feelings about this were quite conflicted and complicated.

He knew that, in terms of blood ties, Gu Wei was closer to his family.

There was a layer between them after all.

However, after spending so much time together and developing deep feelings for each other, and becoming a true family, one can't help but have more expectations.

Gu Wei understood the emotions in Gu Hongjie's eyes, patted him on the shoulder and smiled, "I already celebrated the New Year with them. Now that I'm back, where do you want to go for fun?"

As Gu Hongjie grew older, he considered himself to be more grown up, so his preferences from before were definitely different from his current ones. "It's too cold, and sledding isn't very fun. Take me with you when you go to the city; I want to go to the Xinhua Bookstore to buy some books."

Gu Wei completely followed Gu Hongjie's suggestion and said with a smile, "Okay, let's go tomorrow."

Gu Hongjie happily agreed, then suddenly remembered something, "Oh right, my Uncle Li's hotel has opened, and I heard it has a lot of out-of-town regulars..."

"Really? Business seems to be doing well."

Li Bin initially wanted to recruit Gu Wei, but Gu Wei refused, not only because he wasn't optimistic about the future development of the forest area, but also because he didn't want to get involved in that kind of thing.

"It should be pretty good. My parents and I even went to the banquet on the opening day."

Gu Hongjie began to describe in detail what he had seen, and Gu Wei listened patiently.

Although Gu Hongjie will be sixteen years old by the Chinese New Year, he is still a child in the eyes of others.

He only sees things superficially, and there are some things he can't possibly know.
