Although they were all young people living far from home, some married and some not, their little houses were filled with laughter and joy.
In previous years, He Chaoyang spent the Spring Festival either at home or in the army. This was the first time he had spent the Spring Festival with the girl he loved.
Watching the little girl bustling around, He Chaoyang instantly felt that this was his own little home, a feeling he longed for.
He poured more than half a glass of red wine into Chen Shuning and Chen Jiandang's glasses, while pouring himself a glass of white wine.
Due to his work environment, He Chaoyang often drinks baijiu (a type of Chinese liquor) with his comrades when he's not on missions, and he has a pretty good tolerance for alcohol.
Upon seeing the Moutai in He Chaoyang's hand, Chen Shuning's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile, "This is a good thing, Brother He, where did you get it from?"
I went to the supply and marketing cooperative before the Lunar New Year and asked if they even had regular liquor for sale.
I didn't even see this liquor on the black market.
Chen Shuning looked at the Moutai in his hand with some excitement. You know, this kind of liquor is very hard to buy in later generations. Putting aside whether it is expensive or not, it is almost impossible to buy this kind of pure grain brewed liquor.
Thinking of this, Chen Shuning decided that his collection had grown by one item: pure grain-brewed liquor. He could store more of this, since it wouldn't spoil in his spatial storage.
Chen Shuning was so carried away that he didn't even realize he had let slip that he had gone to the black market.
In fact, He Chaoyang already knew that Chen Shuning went to the black market, but he didn't know that his little girl was now a major supplier in the black market of Hongqi Town and even Heilongjiang Province.
He Chaoyang assumed that Chen Shuning went to the black market to buy some small items, since many things in Chen Shuning's home were not available at the supply and marketing cooperative.
However, He Chaoyang didn't think much of it, assuming he hadn't heard anything, as he figured buying things on the black market wasn't a big deal.
At this moment, Chen Jiandang's mind was entirely on the red wine in front of him. He carefully held the glass and took a small sip. The full fruity aroma and the perfectly balanced sweet and sour taste made Chen Jiandang instantly fall in love with the flavor.
He never received this treatment at home, so he couldn't help but feel increasingly fond of He Chaoyang, his future brother-in-law.
His father usually likes to have a few drinks with his meals, but Chen Tiejun drinks baijiu (Chinese liquor). Chen Jiandang has been craving it for a long time, but his father is easy to talk to about everything else, but he refuses to let him drink this liquor no matter what.
He Chaoyang had no idea that with just a glass of red wine, he had completely won over Chen Jiandang, his die-hard fan. So much so that in the days that followed, whenever he had a conflict with Chen Shuning, Chen Jiandang, his brother-in-law, would always stand firmly on his side.
Thanks to the alcohol, the New Year celebration was very lively, even though there were only three of us.
