Chapter 1016 Thirty Years, Family Love

On the day of New Year's Eve, Jiang Chen was pulled out of bed early in the morning, and then the whole family, old and young, went about their activities to prepare for the New Year's Eve dinner in the afternoon.Because Jiang Chen's grandparents only have one son, Jiang Chen's father, and they moved from their hometown to Anxi to settle down, so basically they don't have any relatives.On the contrary, because his mother, Lei Dan, is the eldest sister, she usually comes to Jiang Chen's house for the annual New Year's Eve dinner in Anxi.In fact, it's not just the New Year's Eve dinner, they also come to Jiang Chen's house every now and then.Especially as Jiang Chen's business grew bigger and bigger, Jiang Chen's house naturally became the center of these people.Although it sounds a bit snobbish, the reality is true. Jiang Chen's development is also affecting these people invisibly. No matter how alienated you are, you will never be able to get rid of it.

Of course, there are not many relatives in Anxi, just my aunt's family and Lei Jun's family.As for my aunt's family, my uncle will definitely not be able to come back during the Chinese New Year, and my aunt, as a leader, must also play a leading role at special moments.So I sent Zhang Qian early in the morning and left in a hurry, saying that I was going to visit veteran cadres and comrades, and I guess I won't be back until the afternoon.As for Lei Jun's family, they must also come, in fact, basically every year.Of course, Lei Jun is also the leader of the wolf den, so he naturally has to stick to his post.But it's close, so I've already made arrangements to come back in time for the New Year's Eve dinner in the afternoon.As for Li Siyan, although she is the leader of the hospital, this is their own hospital, so they don't pay attention to these things.During the Chinese New Year, except for the need to arrange duty in the emergency department, the others are basically on holiday, and she is naturally the same.So I brought the child here early in the morning, and now I am busy with Jiang Chen's mother, Lei Dan.

As for Jiang Chen and his family, mother basically needless to say, is now in a retired state. Although Jiang Chen is hired by Jiang Chen as the principal of the company's children's elementary school, there is basically nothing to do. The vice principal is in charge of the specific matters. .Besides, it is also during the holiday period, so there is nothing to do.As for his father, although he is the chief engineer of the Aviation Academy, his technical position has nothing to do with the administrative level, so naturally he doesn't need to worry about it.As for Wei Lingling and Jiang Chen, although they are the person in charge of the company, the specific schedule is still up to them, so today they deliberately took time out to celebrate the New Year with their families.As for Jiang Xin, Zhang Qian and the three boys, there is no need to introduce them.The main task of these two girls today is to take good care of the three boys, as long as they don't interfere with other people's busy work.As for Jiang Chen's grandparents, as well as Wei Lingling's parents, grandparents, grandparents, these can only be called to greet them.They are all far away, there is really no way.

However, Jiang Chen's first important task in the morning is not to help his family, but to go to the grave, and the object is naturally his grandparents.This is usually done by the younger members of the family. In the past, when Jiang Chen was still young, his father led him there.Now that he's older, it's his turn to take on this heavy responsibility.When the two boys grow up, this job will be handed over to them, but they are still young.Originally, Jiang Chen wanted to take the two boys with him, but his mother refused because of the cold outside.So Jiang Chen could only go alone.Although he still has a younger sister, the custom in Anxi is that women don't go there, and they can't touch those burnt paper money.It is said that if touched, the paper money will become iron money in the hands of their grandparents and cannot be used.

Driven by Zhou Ning, Jiang Chen came to the graveyard of his grandparents.Although the New Year is over, Zhou Ning stayed by Jiang Chen's side because of mission needs.Of course, Jiang Chen and his family didn't treat this quiet kid as an outsider.Today is the Chinese New Year, Jiang Chen called him to spend the New Year with him at home, this is what Jiang Chen's mother specially explained.The graves of Jiang Chen's grandparents are now in a public cemetery in Anxi.It wasn't before, but the area where his grandparents were originally buried was moved to this cemetery because of the rapid development of the city and it was used for infrastructure construction.As for Jiang Chen, after setting off a string of firecrackers in front of his grandparents’ graves to let them feel the festiveness of the New Year, he began to burn paper money. After burning all the paper money, Jiang Chen knocked them down a few times respectfully. Get out of here after a while.Although many people now say that this is superstition, in Jiang Chen's view, it is no longer pure superstition, but a kind of tradition of people, which is pinned on the longing for the ancients, and has nothing to do with faith or science.

Back home, his father was tidying up and cleaning the yard, and Jiang Chen hurried over to help.Zhou Ning, who was following behind, couldn't be idle anymore, so he worked very quickly, basically rushing to do everything.Although it is said that there is mother's hard work at home, so the yard is very clean.But in order to welcome the new year better, Jiang Chen's father cleaned it very carefully, cleaning every corner.The next step is to post Spring Festival couplets, which is also a great tradition among our folks. A pair of Spring Festival couplets with good meaning can bring good luck and blessings to the family in the new year.But the Spring Festival couplets at this time are not as colorful as later generations, and most of them are written by people on the spot.Generally, you only need to pay a red paper money and a touch-up fee, which is not expensive. The ones on the streets and alleys are only fifty cents at this time, which is very cheap.However, the Spring Festival couplets in Jiang Chen's house are different from those. These are an activity that Jiang Chen and the others did a few years ago. They organized some well-known calligraphers from Anxi to come to the company to write Spring Festival couplets for the employees.As for Jiang Chen's, although he didn't say it himself, the people below had already prepared it, so he just brought it back.

A few Spring Festival couplets kept Jiang Chen and the three of them busy for a long time, and finally even Jiang Xin, Zhang Qian and a few boys joined in.Jiang Chen and Zhou Ning were in charge of posting the basic process, while Jiang Chen's father, Jiang Keming, was in charge of directing.It may be that Jiang Keming has been engaged in scientific research for a long time, so he takes things very seriously, even to the point of being harsh.Even if it was one centimeter more or one point off, he would ask to repost it, almost breaking the Spring Festival couplets.As for the two girls and the three boys, they were very curious about this, so they all surrounded them, and when they encountered disputes, they would put on an air of little adults to offer their opinions, which made Jiang Chen very amused.

After finishing all these tasks, Jiang Chen took a sip of water and rested for a while before being dragged to the kitchen by Wei Lingling.Although they can cook meals, and Jiang Chen's mother's cooking skills are not bad.But who told Jiang Chen to know how to eat, and how to cook it well.Therefore, everyone asked Jiang Chen to cook the dishes for several big dishes during the New Year and holidays.Even before Jiang Chen started to work, a few greedy cats started to order food.And Jiang Chen started to work while smiling.Cooking for those closest to him, no matter how tired he is, so what, he likes it, and he is willing.
