The Age of Rebirth

Chapter 287 Honor Your Parents
Liu Jinhui thought carefully about Li Weidong's words, obviously a little too real, so that she felt a lot of discomfort in her heart, and realized for the first time that shopping malls are as cruel as battlefields.

In the next two days, Liu Jinhui became much calmer, and handled the company's affairs with ease. Sure enough, she looked at the problem from a different perspective, and the result was also different.

However, many hidden problems in the company have not been exposed. These are the more worrying things. At the beginning, everyone was testing, including Tian Ya, who was also testing how wide Liu Jinhui's decentralization was.

Liu Jinhui worked in such an environment for three days. The Spring Festival of the Year of the Dog has arrived. The Spring Festival is not officially a legal holiday on Hong Kong Island, but the festival, although it is not a holiday, is generally celebrated by ordinary people.

Li Weidong's family naturally wants to celebrate. According to the customs of their hometown, this year is the year of importation, and they have to celebrate well. At least one hundred firecrackers should be fired.

Although not in his hometown, this custom still exists. Li Chengwen started to inquire early on where there are fireworks and firecrackers, and where are couplet lanterns.

Although he was not at home, he also called home and asked his youngest son to hang two red lanterns at the gate, from the first day to the fifteenth day of the lunar new year.

On New Year’s Eve, Ding Yuan carried a big red lantern and hung it from the iron railing at the gate. He had to adjust the height according to Li Chengwen’s request. China has always pursued the art of symmetry, so both sides must be equally high, otherwise it would be taboo.

Li Chengwen is good at doing these things, and he doesn't need others to point out what to do when he is ready. Although it is unreasonable to spend the Spring Festival at his son's house, there is no way for their family to have more children next year.

People are people who live from generation to generation. Without descendants, they are all extinct, so what a fart, die early and reincarnate early, save some food and accumulate some evil virtues, and strive for continuous descendants in the next life.

Li Chengwen held a cigarette in one hand, gestured with the other and said, "Okay, that's it, plug in the electricity and see if it lights up?"

The next step is to post Spring Festival couplets and fried crispy vegetable balls. Except for a little less people, there is nothing missing at home. Busy year is not a noun, but a solid verb.

At least except for Liu Jinhui who is pregnant and can't do physical work, most of the others are very busy. They have to understand all the dishes during the Chinese New Year, and the rule of not using a knife on the first day of the new year still needs to be explained.

And at the end of the year, the overall life is richer, but it is full of energy, how to waste it, that is, the dishes are all particular, how many dishes and soups, how hot and how cold, Li Chengwen has already prepared the menu, Sister Ding only needs to Responsible for purchasing.

When the busy work was almost over, Liu Jinhui took out a thick red envelope and handed it to Sister Ding, saying, "Sister Ding, you have worked hard for a year, happy new year!"

Sister Ding looked at the thick red envelope and didn't know what to do. If she gave a thinner one, she would put it away. Such a thick red envelope is too much!
"Sister Ding, just take it. It's the Chinese New Year, and I will give you a year-end bonus. If you have nothing to do after the Chinese New Year, come here earlier!" Li Weidong looked at Sister Ding hesitantly and said.

"Then thank you Mr. Liu, thank you Chairman, I will come after the New Year!" Sister Ding hesitated when she heard that it was the year-end award, but still accepted it.

Sister Ding didn't pack her things either. She wanted to take a taxi at the door, but there were no taxis here. Li Weidong asked Ding Yuan to drive him back. There are probably not many nannies who are treated like this.

Ordinarily, the nannies of such rich families are all live-in, and they will not go back easily throughout the year, especially during festivals, when the owner's house has more guests, they have to stay.

But Shen Yueying and Li Chengwen didn't think so. On the first day of the Lunar New Year, except for people with the original surname of the village walking around to pay New Year's greetings, there were no random visits to relatives and friends. Naturally, Sister Ding went back to rest for a day.

The New Year's Eve dinner follows the menu agreed upon by Li Chengwen and Shen Yueying. It is hard to imagine that there are almost no Haizhen in this seaside city, but Li Weidong eats very comfortably, and the taste of his hometown is good.

If it was time to eat in his hometown, he would naturally start playing mahjong and poker, and Li Weidong would start to be a money-scattering boy, but here the people on Hong Kong Island can't make up enough and can only fight the landlords.

Li Weidong became a money-spreading boy again, and he played until the first stick of incense in the year of the dog. Li Weidong didn't know how much he lost, but he was a little jealous when he looked at Li Weihong from the sidelines. What kind of TV are you watching? You have to join in the fun of whatever you say.

But this person is still satisfied. Her brother agrees that she will transfer to Hong Kong Island to study next year. Although I don't know how much it will cost, I don't need to think about it to know that it is not a small amount.

She won't be able to pay the money in a short time, so she dare not ask, so these days she is so cute that people look at her, and her parents don't know about this, otherwise they definitely don't think she is cute. There will be no feeling that she has finally grown up.

After burning the first stick of incense in the new year, pay homage to the gods and Buddhas, Jesus Satan, and pray for a safe and smooth new year, and the new year will officially begin.

It's New Year's Day, sleep is still necessary, each went back to the room, Li Chengwen entered the room and took out various Hong Kong dollars from his pocket and counted them, Shen Yueying was stunned for a while.

She has always been in charge of the living expenses in the drawer, and there is no shortage. Where did the money come from!
"Where did you get so much money?" Shen Yueying's face was not very good, but she couldn't get angry on the first day of the new year.

"You asked this question. Didn't you see what you did all night? Naturally, you won the game of cards. It cost several thousand. The money came really fast. Those who see the Chinese New Year have a share. I'm open-minded, and I will share it with you Half of you!" Li Chengwen said as a matter of course.

"Whoever wins this money, Xiao Ding still has to support his family and children, and he can't go back after the Chinese New Year. Isn't it a crime for you to win other people's money? Hurry up and give it back!"

Li Chengwen hardened his forehead and said: "What you said is willing to bet and admit defeat. There are no fathers and sons in casinos. There is no reason to return the money you win. Besides, I can't win your son's money!"

"Weidong can lose money. He is a college student, and he can lose money to you two. Who will believe it?"

Like most mothers, Shen Yueying's son's achievements will be infinitely magnified, and they all think that their son is the best, and it is really a honor to be admitted to university.

"What's wrong with college students, college students won't lose money!"

Li Chengwen paused for a moment, and then said: "Come on, you're usually very smart, why don't you understand that he lost the money on purpose, and he has to honor me as a father and you as a mother!"

Li Chengwen sighed after he finished speaking. He still couldn't see it in one round or two, but after playing all night, if he couldn't see it, there was a ghost. However, he couldn't expose his son's kindness, so he could only bear it.

Although the living expenses are spent casually, the money in the drawer is spent more and more, but it is living expenses after all, not the money of the two of them, so it is not so peaceful to spend it.

They have no money in their hands, and with the little money they saved at home, it is difficult to spend a week on Hong Kong Island, and it is difficult to buy something they like, even buying a toy for their children.

They are parents, and it would be too embarrassing and outrageous to ask their son for money. Although Li Weidong's intentions are a bit obscure, he can still see it.

After daybreak, his grandson Li Qian was going to kowtow to the two of them to pay New Year's greetings. He couldn't take money from the drawer to give out lucky red envelopes. He had been worrying about this for the past two days.

Li Weidong and his wife certainly don't care much, but if they follow the custom of their hometown and get a red envelope of ten or eight yuan, it would be too shabby.

Li Weidong had two lifetimes of experience, so he could see the embarrassment of the old man, and complained to himself for a while. Although he said that the money was spent casually, his parents didn't think so. They still felt that it belonged to their son, not theirs.

In the hearts of the parents, they belong to the son, but the son's is not theirs. Although it is confusing, it is the truth.
