Chapter 378 Who still has a grudge against money?
The family stayed at Li's house until around five in the afternoon before returning home.
He stayed at home until the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month before returning to Zhang Kun's hometown.
There is no New Year’s Eve this year. The 29th day of the twelfth lunar month is New Year’s Eve.
Because Zhang Yao came back, Zhang Kun and his family had to live in Zhang Jun's house.
Early in the morning of the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, the two families went to the old house.
Some people were killing chickens, some were killing fish, some were putting up couplets, and they began to prepare the New Year’s Eve dinner.
After tonight, we will officially enter the millennium.
New Year’s Eve dinner is the most important meal of the year.
The whole family was busy from morning to night for this meal.
Although busy, I am very happy.
At around five o'clock, the main dishes were already in the pot, and Zhang Kun was in charge of cooking.
There are a few simple dishes that can be fried after the main dishes are out of the pot.
Zhang Kun is the chef and Zhang Jun is the fireman, the two brothers work together very well.
Wang Yueju sat on the kang and watched TV with a few children.
Zhang Yao was kneading the dough, while sisters-in-law Li Xu and Hao Meiting were preparing the dumpling filling.
Making dumplings after the New Year’s Eve dinner is a tradition in their city S.
Only Zhang Dali was an idle person, looking here and there.
"Yaoyao..." Wang Yueju suddenly called Zhang Yao.
Zhang Yao looked over in surprise: "What's wrong?"
Wang Yueju hesitated: "I don't know..."
She seemed to be unsure whether to say it or not. After a moment, she said, "You think Wei Zhenghao won't spend the New Year alone tonight?"
After Wang Yueju finished speaking, Zhang Yao fell silent.
Sisters-in-law Li Xu and Hao Meiting were talking, but they stopped talking after hearing this.
When she heard Wei Zhenghao's name, Wenwen glanced at Zhang Yao secretly.
"How do I know whether he is spending the New Year alone? Besides, what does it have to do with you?" After a moment, Zhang Yao said impatiently.
Wang Yueju sighed, "Last time, Wei Zhenghao and his mother had a serious quarrel in front of our house. Besides, he has been helping you in the fields for the past few months, and he didn't ask for a penny, right?"
Zhang Dali heard the sound and came in from outside.
"I think you are getting old and confused. You only remember the food but not the beatings? You only remember the good things he did these days. Why don't you remember the bad things he did in the past?"
Wang Yueju saw that her old man and Zhang Yao were a little excited when talking about Wei Zhenghao, so she didn't dare to say much, but just whispered: "I thought, sending him a bowl of dumplings is just a convenient thing to do."
Zhang Yao didn't say anything and just kneaded the dough by herself.
Seeing this, Wang Yueju sighed, "Okay, okay, I won't say anything more. Just get busy with what needs to be done!"
The room became lively again, but Zhang Yao's face didn't return to normal for a long time.
At around seven o'clock, all the main dishes were ready.
Zhang Dali set the table, Zhang Jun brought the main dishes to the table, and Zhang Kun was already washing the pot and preparing to fry the next dish.
It was almost eight o'clock, and the children turned the TV program to CCTV-1, waiting to watch the Spring Festival Gala.
At about 8:15, all the dishes were ready and the family squeezed around a table, eating while watching the Spring Festival Gala.
Outside, the sound of firecrackers was already popping.
During the day, Zhang Dali had bought a whole box of fireworks for the children.
Hearing the noise outside, the children couldn't help themselves.
After quickly finishing their meal, Zhang Jun and Hao Meiting brought the children to the yard.
Soon, crackling sounds and children's shouts were heard in the yard.
The rest of the people finished their meal soon.
Wang Yueju took Zhang Yao and Li Xu to move to another location, moved the cooking surface, dough and dumpling fillings onto the kang, and the three of them began to make dumplings for dinner.
After Zhang Kun finished eating, he was about to clear the table when suddenly Ji Ziang ran in from outside.
He looked around and finally fixed his sight on Zhang Yao, "Aunt, Wenwen's father is here."
He knew that Zhang Yao and Wei Zhenghao were divorced, so he shouldn't call him uncle now.
So, call Wei Zhenghao Wenwen's father.
Hearing this, Zhang Yao's brows suddenly frowned. She put down the noodles in her hand and walked out.
Zhang Kun asked Ji Ziang: "Did he come here alone? Or did he bring other people with him?"
Ji Ziang said: "He is the only one."
Hearing this, Zhang Kun felt relieved and did not go out with Zhang Yao.
In the yard, the children stopped setting off fireworks and looked at each other, feeling a little helpless.
Ji Zixuan called them: "Let's go in and watch the Spring Festival Gala and come out later."
The children rushed into the house and filled it up.
Zhang Dali stood in the yard with an ugly look on his face.
After a moment, he sighed and followed her back to the house.
At the door, Wei Zhenghao was holding a few red envelopes in his hands.
He handed it to Zhang Yao and whispered, "This is a red envelope for the children. I don't have much money, so I put fifty yuan in one red envelope. Remember to put the red envelope under Wenwen's pillow before going to bed at night."
Looking at the red envelope in front of her, Zhang Yao frowned tightly.
"Wei Zhenghao, you don't have to pretend in front of me. I can tell you very clearly that I will not remarry you." Zhang Yao said after a long while.
Hearing Zhang Yao's words, Wei Zhenghao smiled bitterly, "I don't want to remarry. I know I hurt you too deeply before. I don't want to think about anything else now. I just want to raise Wenwen together with you."
This sentence is still a human word.
Zhang Yao reached out and took out a red envelope: "You are Wenwen's father, this red envelope is what you should give. As for the other children, they have nothing to do with you, so don't bother with them, I will give them to you."
After saying that, she turned around and was about to go back.
Wei Zhenghao didn't care about that. He grabbed Zhang Yao's arm, took the opportunity to put all the red envelopes on the ground, turned around and ran away.
"Hey, you..." Zhang Yao called him, but Wei Zhenghao had already run several meters away.
Zhang Yao picked up the red envelope on the ground and wanted to chase him, but Wei Zhenghao had already run far away.
She sighed and could only take Wei Zhenghao's red envelope and enter the house.
Who still has a grudge against money?
After entering the house, she placed a few red envelopes on the kang and said, "I'm going to wash my hands!"
Looking at the red envelope, Zhang Kun and Zhang Jun looked at each other in surprise.
"Where did the red envelope come from? Could it be given by Wei Zhenghao?" Zhang Jun asked in disbelief when Zhang Yao came back.
Zhang Yao nodded, her expression calm: "Yes, he gave it to each child!"
Zhang Jun's eyes widened: "Did he really give it to me?"
He didn't have the courage to say the rest of the words in front of Wenwen.
What happened to Wei Zhenghao, who has always been extremely stingy? Is the iron tree finally blooming?
Is there a dollar in it?
Zhang Jun took several red envelopes and after opening them one by one, he was even more surprised.
"All fifty."
Hao Meiting glanced at him and said, "Put it down quickly."
It seems like he is so greedy for money.
