Chapter 28: Spending the 2007 Spring Festival at the Crossroads



After attending the commissioning ceremony of the Weilong, Xiao Zhen also participated in the military commendation meeting and drove back to Yuzhou with the honorary title of "National Advanced Science and Technology Worker".

Xiaozhen drove all the way to the pine forest at Nanshan Pass, but a corridor and landscape pavilion was built where people park for daily use.

Xiao Zhen sat on a wooden chair on the veranda, his thoughts drifting to the long-ago Anti-Japanese War period. He thought of his father, Xiao Zhengtang, who arrived in Luodian and died in the Luodian meat grinder along with an entire Sichuan Army division within half a month.

For well-known reasons, they will not enjoy the treatment of martyrs. Xiao Zhen feels sorry for his father in another time and space.

However, since they did not receive the necessary honors, at least future generations should know that there was a group of people who, even if they were used as cannon fodder, at least fought and died for their country!

Xiao Zhen rarely smoked a cigarette and looked at the waves of pine trees in the distance. In fact, that was where his old house was located, but now he couldn't find a single hair of it.

In fact, the Xiao Zhengtang family in this time and space migrated from Nanshan to Chalukou. Xiao Zhengtang was from the second branch and was considered a clan relative, but Xiao Zhen only discovered this.

He himself was from the third branch, but the people in his branch seemed to have disappeared and were no longer there.

Now when I feel bored, I can only sit in this pavilion and look at the large pine forest opposite. Fortunately, the shape of the mountain has not changed and there has been no earthquake here.

Thinking of this, and thinking of some of the things he had done in places like Wenchuan, Xiao Zhen felt that the last thing he could do was to ask Lao Liu to stockpile a batch of emergency supplies every month after the Spring Festival.

A separate warehouse was set up in its huge storage base across the country as a disaster relief emergency charity warehouse.

Whenever there is a disaster in the country in the future, the regional city manager will be asked to report it to Lao Liu.

We can directly open the emergency warehouse and distribute the supplies free of charge. However, before distributing the supplies, the local government must sign the material acceptance procedures. Good deeds cannot be done in vain.

Xiao Zhen received a call from Princess Sarah in Chengdu yesterday. Xiao Zhen hired a whole medical team from Dubai at a high salary to take care of him and Sarah's child at home.

Still worried, Liang Botao donated two hospitals in the name of Huasheng, one in Amman and the other in New Yaqaba Bay City. The child was only two months old.

Xiao Zhen has to wait until after the Spring Festival to use the excuse of inspecting the Middle East industry to visit Sarah. He is a man of flesh and blood, so he decided to register his marriage with Sarah in Jordan. His child must not be labeled as an illegitimate child.

At worst, I can give my brother-in-law the King a division's worth of Land Rover floor-washing kits, which only cost a few dollars.

Just as Xiao Zhen was thinking about this and that, he suddenly sneezed loudly. The mountain wind had been blowing for most of the afternoon and he might have caught a cold.

After coming down the mountain, he got a box of Huakang cold granules from the village clinic and took them home to take a bite first, as he was afraid of passing the cold to his children and grandparents.

"Dad, what's in your bag?" the youngest son asked curiously, holding a mulberry branch as a sword.

"Hahaha, this is Dad's award certificate. Where is Aunt Xie?" he asked while touching his youngest son's head with a smile.

"Aunt Xie went to the activity room in front to play mahjong with grandma and grandpa.

But Aunt Xie loses a lot, her mahjong skills are too poor. "The eldest son said

"Zhennan, go to the activity room and call your Aunt Xie back so we can go buy New Year's goods."

Xiao Zhen put his things away and changed the two children into old man's pajamas. Then, they put on the brand-name children's clothes that Xie Chengrun had chosen for them, and they transformed from country boys into little boys!

Soon the whole family came back, and they split into three groups: one group, the child's aunt, and the other group, the stepmother and the child, went shopping to buy new clothes for the whole family at the Paradise Center in Jiangbeizui, Yuzhou.

The styles here are synchronized with those in Shanghai and Hong Kong, which makes wealthy people from Guiyang and Chengdu come to Jiangbeizui to shop.

Xiao Zhen is a cook, so he went with his brother to the seafood market and the beef and mutton market to buy food for the whole family for the New Year.

The reason why Xindufu came into the family this year was that his aunt Xiao Wenhui from Xiaozhen, his uncle who is an academician, and college student Li Shentong came back to celebrate the New Year together. They will have to wait a few days before they come back. His cousin Li Shentong went to study mathematics at Princeton.

On the other hand, his father and mother went to buy Spring Festival couplets, incense and candles and other Spring Festival sacrificial supplies.

After several groups of people finished shopping, they gathered at Jiangbeizui and found a Cantonese restaurant in Paradise Center to have a meal. The whole family saw that there was a new movie by Zhang Yimou coming out, so they went to see a movie.

Lao Zhang doesn't have access to scripts now. The scripts he works with are written by the top screenwriters in the industry. Only after the company's review agency has approved them will they be given to him for filming.

He has the highest degree of freedom in filming and has a certain right to make suggestions on editing, which is considered a privilege for S-level directors. Only a small number of big directors in the huge GPM group have these privileges.

"Mo Dao: The Legend of Li Siye" is the work that Lao Zhang wanted to shoot, and it was written by screenwriter Lu Da himself, and the script was reviewed by Xiao Zhen himself.

It has been released for three days and has occupied most of the box office records in Asia. This is easy to achieve with the background of the world's No. 1 cinema chain and the world's No. 2 distribution company. However, first of all, the script must be logically sound, and the filming must be qualified, so the box office will generally not be bad.

A few days later, Li Shentong and Wen Yun, the two troublemakers, came back to celebrate the New Year. Wen Yun was a junior and Li Shentong was a freshman. One was in Fudan University and the other in Princeton, both of them had passed the entrance exams on their own.

Of course, with a letter of recommendation from Uncle Xiao Zhen, a senior academician and an alumnus, it was easy for him to attend the school where my father graduated with a doctorate.

The two of them are a bit of a mess, but they have good upbringing and are not spoiled kids. They just like to play around.

On the third day after returning, they drove Xiao Zhen's Venom sports car to the Jiaochangkou nightclub. They drank some beverages instead of alcohol and drove back after staying there for three hours. As a result, an old man driving a yellow Ferrari insisted on blocking their car's position.

The uncle and nephew knew at first glance that this man was a psychopath and moved aside to let him go first.

The man stepped on the accelerator and said, "If you don't leave, Li Shentong and the others will leave." The Venom worth half a billion yuan is not comparable to the Ferrari worth more than 6 million yuan. All of a sudden, only the taillights of the Venom could be seen.

This guy was still not convinced, so he used his connections to check whose car the Yu B license plate belonged to. But within two minutes, the person said it belonged to Xiao Zhengtang's eldest son Xiao Zhen.

The other party could only say sorry for disturbing him, and the guy behind him would never dare to provoke and block the position so late at night again.

If someone doesn't care, it just means they don't care. But if you even slightly twist your mouth, it will be enough to make him suffer.

He remembered the time when he went to the Chaotianmen stall to collect protection money from Xiao Zhengtang, and suddenly felt a pain in his waist.

Xie Chengrun spent his first Spring Festival in Yuzhou amidst waves of red envelopes.

Of course, she also gave out a lot of red envelopes. This girl has her own money, not to mention the money from her marriage. This girl asked Xiao Zhen to manage the money for her.

Xiao Zhen set up a special fund for this guy, but the $100 household allowance this month was given separately, as the child still needs money on a regular basis.

Ivanka Trump, a socialite from the Upper East Side, actually wanted to come to Yuzhou to visit her sons, but she also knew that it would be too disrespectful for a bride to go alone in her first year, so she decided to go to Shanghai to visit her children during the days when her children were in school. She is now regretting this more and more.
