Chapter 468 My Mom Bullies Me~
Everyone had their own thoughts. Old Mrs. Tian was relieved when she found out that Ning Suyue was playing with the fireworks that the third family had bought themselves.
"Since He Yang bought it himself, it might just be an accident. This happened during the Chinese New Year, the manufacturer must be held accountable."
"It's getting late, let's deal with this tomorrow."
After Mrs. Tian finished speaking, she yawned and felt that it was getting late, so she said goodbye to everyone and went back to her room to lie down for a while.
The others also returned to the main room. Seeing that there was still more than half an hour before twelve o'clock, some people took out cards to play.
Mrs. He liked to play cards and there was no shortage of people playing during the New Year. She ignored Mrs. Jin's embarrassed expression and asked everyone to sit down and shuffle the cards.
Chen Tang didn't know how to play cards, so he watched a few games from the side.
At twelve o'clock, the men of the He family went out to set off firecrackers, and Chen Tang followed He Xu back to the room to sleep.
The next morning, many people from Hejia Village came to pay New Year's greetings.
Although some unpleasant things happened last night, Mr. He was in a good mood after getting up today. A group of people knelt in front of him to wish him a happy new year, saying nice things one after another and giving him red envelopes one after another.
Although there were some conflicts among the three families, things were different in the 1980s after all, and everyone received generous red envelopes.
Chen Tang also gave some big red envelopes to the little ones.
The people from Hejia Village came to pay their respects to Grandpa He, and then according to their seniority, everyone followed others to the village to pay their respects to the respected elders.
After half a day, He Zhi couldn't even stuff the red envelopes into his pocket, and his knees were aching from kneeling.
As soon as Chen Tang brought him home, he started opening the red envelopes.
He Zhi was beside him and exclaimed in surprise: "I have so much New Year's money, how much candy can I buy this year?"
He counted on his fingers. He only had one dollar pocket money per week now. With this money, he would have more money every month... one, two, three, four, five, six, seven... it's impossible to count it, it's impossible!
Chen Tang rolled his eyes and said, “Xiaobao, will mom save it for you this year too?”
He Zhi waved his hand boldly: "No need, I have already allocated this New Year's money. This part is for toys, this part is for candy, and this part is for buying beautiful clips for sister Wen Shu."
Chen Tang watched him counting on his fingers and tried to hold back his laughter: "No, children's New Year's money can't be spent carelessly, it has to be saved."
He Zhi was not convinced: "Why?"
Chen Tang lied to him: "Mom doesn't know why either, but Mom's mom did the same thing anyway. If you don't believe me, go ask your brother He Yun."
He Zhi was shocked: "But, but this is my New Year's money."
He reluctantly pinched a corner of the red envelope, and then watched his mother take the red envelope away from his fingers.
Chen Tang counted as he drew the coins: "One, two, oh, there are still five. They must have been given by your father..."
He Zhi covered his chest and said, "It hurts so much. I have so much money but I can't spend it."
Chen Tang was about to die of his cuteness: "Then mom will leave one for you?"
He Zhi nodded his head quickly and smiled widely: "Yeah, mom is the best."
Then he stared at the red envelope in her hand.
When Chen Tang touched a ten-dollar note, He Zhi's eyes lit up. When he touched a five-dollar note, his smile gradually faded a little, and he thought to himself that it was okay.
By the time Chen Tang got two pieces, He Zhi's chubby face was almost wrinkled into a ball, and he kept muttering, "That's fine, that's enough candy. I won't buy toys and clips this year."
The next second, Chen Tang pulled out a one-yuan ticket.
He Zhi cried loudly, and he turned and left: "Mom bullied me~"
Chen Tang thought something was wrong: "Hey, wait, the ones Mom smoked don't count, only the ones you smoked yourself count."
The little guy was coaxed instantly, looking at her with sparkling eyes: "How do you smoke?"
Chen Tang put ten cents, fifty cents, one dollar, two dollars, five dollars, and ten dollars into red envelopes of the same size, then shuffled the order and took them out in his hand.
"Okay, no touching. Just take a red envelope from me and give it to me. That's your New Year's money to spend this year."
"Then you are not a defaulter."
"A gentleman's word is as good as his bond, and my mother will never go back on her word."
He Zhi thought it was fun and reached out to feel the thickness of the red envelope.
Chen Tang pulled his hand back in time: "I told you not to touch me."
"Hmph~" He Zhi puffed his cheeks and scratched his head, not knowing how to choose a big one.
Chen Tang said proudly: "Hurry up and choose, now it's your choice, if you choose a small one, don't say that mom bullied you."
He Zhi: "I know, I know."
He looked left and right, but couldn't make it out. He hesitated and said, "How about you replay it, Mom? I didn't see it clearly just now."
Chen Tang stretched out a finger and shook it: "No~no~oh~"
He Zhi puffed up his little face and stuck out his fat waist: "Then I can smell it, right?"
He took out ten yuan from the side and smelled it, then sniffed the red envelope in Shen Tang's hand left and right, and finally hesitantly chose the one on the left.
Chen Tang opened it and immediately laughed like a pig: "Hahaha, it's one cent."
He Zhi's face turned red with anger. He opened the other boxes in disbelief. The money inside was bigger than the one he just chose.
He was like a puppy drenched by the rain, and his eyes seemed to have lost all their luster.
Chen Tang couldn't bear it: "Xiaobao is so pitiful, why don't mom give you this dollar."
He Zhi snorted: "I am a man, a man's word is his bond, a dime is a dime!"
As he spoke, he bit his lips tightly, tears in his eyes, and walked quickly in two steps.
Chen Tang couldn't bear it for a moment, but the next second he happily put the money in the piggy bank.
After lunch, He Xu took He Zhu to investigate the fireworks factory.
When He Xu first met He Ling, he knew which factory he got the fireworks from.
But when the two arrived at the factory, there was no one there, but the things were still there, so it must be the holiday.
He Xu asked around and found the owner of the factory.
The boss recognized He Ling, who had ordered a batch of goods. After all, He Ling was very generous. He spent nearly twenty yuan on orders from him alone, all of which were expensive.
He Xu took a picture of the order with his camera and found that the order quantity did not match what He Ling bought.
"Besides your factory, are there other fireworks factories?"
The boss said: "Two new stores opened this year, not far from us. You can go and ask."
He Xu went to two stores in a row, one was open and the other was closed.
After checking the open store and finding nothing wrong, he asked around with people nearby before finding the owner of the closed store.
But unfortunately, when He Xu chased the boss to his home, the boss was no longer in Wenting County.
The other party's parents seemed to know that their son had committed a crime and kept silent about his son's failure to come back. He Xu immediately called the police. When the police heard that someone was selling fireworks as dangerous as bombs, they immediately dispatched personnel to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau to investigate the factory.
Only then did they discover that the reason this factory was able to be registered was because the factory owner’s uncle was an official in the Industrial and Commercial Bureau.
The police issued a wanted notice, and He Xu couldn't find the person for a while, so he had to go to the hospital to pick him up.
He Yang's injuries were not serious. After the debris was cleaned up and he was given an anti-inflammatory injection, he was discharged from the hospital after his fever subsided.
When they arrived at the hospital, they found that He Ling was also there.
From a distance, I could hear the couple arguing.
Probably because they didn't want He Yang to hear, the two of them lowered their voices at first, but under their extremely angry emotions, the argument became more and more intense.
"He Yang treats you as his biological mother, but can you as a mother think more about him? You are right to be angry with me. I admit my fault. I am lustful and I did not control my lower body. But He Yang was raised by you. Even if he is wrong in many ways, you should forgive him for the fact that he risked his life to stand in front of you for you this time!"
Ning Suyue: "You are protecting Yu He!"
"If he wants to move up, he can't be called a bastard, and he can't let people know that he has a mother who was imprisoned and shot!"
"Ning Suyue, I don't have to save Yu He for myself, I'm doing it for you and the child. Do you want Yang'er to be like me, frustrated in the same position for the rest of his life?"
Ning Suyue cried, "You want me to tell grandpa that I forgive that bitch Yu He? I tell you it's impossible!"
He Ling was so angry that he kicked the wall fiercely, and only stopped his violent actions when he saw Shen Tang's family coming.
He Yang was helped out by Ning Suyue. He also heard the quarrel between the two. He lowered his eyes and sighed, "Mom, I will stand by you no matter what. If you don't want to forgive Aunt Yu, then don't forgive her. If there is no way to move up in the future, then I will quit my job and go into business."
A look of struggle appeared on Ning Suyue's face, but she said nothing. She took He Yang into the car and returned to her ancestral home in silence.
When they arrived at the ancestral home, He Ling rushed into the house as soon as he got out of the car. He Xu did not stop him and watched him kneel outside the main hall.
