Chapter 557 Lu Xingguang died on New Year's Eve
It’s New Year’s Eve, and there will be more people coming soon.
Su Niannian can't just stay on the kang forever.
Gu Nan smiled, kissed Su Niannian on the forehead, then stood up and went to get some hot water for Su Niannian.
After the hot water was brought in, Su Niannian was already sitting on the edge of the kang.
Gu Nan bent down and put shoes on Su Niannian.
The movements were very gentle, as if he was treating a treasure.
Su Niannian looked at Gu Nan, the smile on her lips never faded.
Such days are simply too happy for Su Niannian.
She wanted it to stay like this forever.
He helped Su Niannian put on her shoes and brought her a towel.
Su Niannian started to wash up.
Because her belly is already very big and she is about to give birth, Su Niannian can hardly bend over now.
Gu Nan watched and wet the towel, then wiped Su Niannian's face.
"The meal is ready. Do you want to eat in the room or go out and eat together?" Gu Nan asked Su Niannian.
Su Niannian likes being in a crowded place, so she goes out to eat with everyone.
Breakfast is simple, millet porridge, pickles and boiled eggs.
There are also hot egg pancakes.
The family had breakfast in Gu's mother's room.
Mr. Bai, Jiang Fangyuan, and driver Xiao Yang came over.
A few people came and helped with the preparations in the kitchen.
Gu Zhendong and Gu's father were also sent to the kitchen to help with the work.
After a while, Zhou Qishan also came over.
We were all busy working together and it seemed like time was passing very quickly.
It was almost noon and time for dinner when Gu Nan and Gu Zhendong went to put up Spring Festival couplets.
After pasting the Spring Festival couplets, we also set off a string of firecrackers.
Su Niannian's ears were covered by Gu Nan's hands.
Watching the firecrackers exploding in front of us, the New Year atmosphere suddenly arises.
After pasting the Spring Festival couplets and setting off firecrackers, the cold dishes were served.
Soon after, the kitchen was filled with fragrance and hot dishes were brought out one by one.
Today, there is another pot, stewing a big silver carp.
It weighs more than ten kilograms.
If this iron pot wasn’t so big, it wouldn’t be able to hold all the food.
I also fried meatballs and spring rolls today.
The delicious dishes were served one by one, and Gu Ningning was the happiest one.
She has never had such a good year in her life.
Gu Ningning and Yangyang were like people who had been given an injection of chicken blood. They appeared here and ran there.
Yangyang also went to the place where the firecrackers were set off to see if there were any leftovers that had not been lit.
Then take a stick of incense, light the firecrackers you picked up and throw them out.
Gu Zhendong felt that it was a bit dangerous, so he simply took out a small section of the good firecrackers and gave it directly to Yangyang.
Disconnect the fuse connecting the firecrackers so that the fuse is longer and there is enough time to throw it out.
Yangyang doesn't cause trouble for adults.
Just squat over there by the wall where it won't get in the way and play with it.
Gu Ningning looked after Yangyang like a little adult.
"Mom, Yangyang is really sensible!" Su Niannian had a lot of peanuts in her pocket. She sat outside the kitchen, peeling peanuts while talking to Gu's mother.
"Yangyang is sensible, but you are not sensible at all. How can you sit here? It's so cold!" Mother Gu frowned and said to Su Niannian.
"It's warm outside the kitchen door. It's hot in the kitchen!" Su Niannian replied.
Gu's mother couldn't do anything about Su Niannian, but she also believed that Su Niannian was a reliable person and would go into the house by herself if she felt cold.
Su Niannian felt that Yangyang was sometimes really sensible.
He behaves so sensible, as if he is not a child of his age.
Of course, the same is true for Gu Ningning.
Maybe it’s because of my childhood experiences.
Therefore, Su Niannian feels that sometimes the bad things you see may also be a good thing from another perspective.
Everything has two sides.
If Yangyang had not experienced those things with Zhao Fengxia when he was a child, he might not be as sensible as he is now.
Su Niannian was in high spirits.
In Kaoshan Village, Su Niannian’s familiar friends were also celebrating the New Year.
Song Zhaodi and Li Ergou got married. In the first year of their marriage, Song Zhaodi showed off her cooking skills in the kitchen.
Because they had seen Su Niannian cook, and Song Zhaodi's cooking skills were already very good, the Li family's cooking skills received a lot of praise.
At this time, Lu Xingguang was hiding alone in the cowshed, shivering.
He probably never thought that he would have such a sad day.
He used to be the son of a factory director in Shanghai. He wore a watch worth more than 100 yuan and didn't feel bad about spending a few yuan on a meal.
Eating and drinking with friends, I used to be such a dazzling person.
But because of a trip to the countryside, he became what he is now.
His parents abandoned him and he was no longer a man.
On such a day of reunion and harmony, Lu Xingguang was huddled alone in the cowshed.
Suddenly, Lu Xingguang smelled a pleasant aroma of meat.
I walked slowly following the smell.
Lu Xingguang's shoes are still the thin sneakers from Spring and Autumn.
It has been torn so much that it cannot be torn any further and does not provide any warmth at all.
Wearing a pair of shoes like this, walking in the snow, my feet are already numb from the cold.
But Lu Xingguang was already dumbfounded. Although he was freezing, feeling painful and itchy, he didn't know what to do.
Although he was wearing a lot of clothes, they were all single items that were layered together and were tattered.
It doesn't provide any warmth either.
Ten layers of sheets are not as good as one layer of cotton.
At noon on New Year's Eve, snowflakes, not big, began to fall from the sky.
Lu Xingguang walked with his mouth open and caught the snow with his mouth.
When Lu Xingguang walked to the place where the smell of meat came from, he saw the steaming kitchen and the warm house.
Lu Xingguang walked into the yard, but the family saw that it was Lu Xingguang.
The man took a broom and went outside to chase the starlight.
It was so cold that Lu Xingguang felt numb all over.
There's no way to resist at all.
He was kicked out by the man of the house.
Lu Xingguang huddled not far away, smelling the aroma of meat.
He sat down on the ground.
I don’t know how long I sat there. When Lu Xingguang reacted again, what appeared in front of him was his father who was the director of a big factory, his gentle mother, and his unreliable brother.
"Xingguang? What are you thinking about? Come! Have a drink!" Lu Xingguang heard Qian Jun's voice.
I saw a table full of food.
I saw myself dressed in bright and beautiful clothes.
A happy and confident smile appeared on Lu Xingguang's face.
It seems like I’ve returned to a year ago, during the Chinese New Year.
The next day, New Year's Day, Lu Xingguang was found by the villagers.
Frozen to death in the snow in the countryside.
His whole body was frozen, red and purple, but there was still a smile on the corner of his mouth.
Lu Xingguang died on New Year's Eve.
It brought a complete end to his life.
Of course, Su Niannian, who was far away in Beijing, didn’t know that Lu Xingguang had died on the day of family reunion.
