After rebirth, they are the ones who took the initiative

Chapter 287 Hongmen Banquet or Life and Death?

On New Year's Eve, Yu Mobai ran out twice without eating early in the morning, and after being shut down, he was at home preparing for the New Year with peace of mind.

There are a lot of things to prepare before the New Year, especially when Yu Mobai's grandma from the countryside is coming, so there are even more things to prepare.

"You didn't know to tell me in advance when your mother came. You just told me today. I didn't prepare so many things."

Zheng Zhaoxia urged in the kitchen, "Go to the supermarket to get something now, and buy some meat by the way."

"Just let them send it over."

Yu Jinsheng smiled and picked up his mobile phone to call the staff to deliver the goods.

This gave Yu Mobai something to talk about, "Mom, look at my dad, the official is not very big, he has a lot of airs, and he even asked others to deliver the goods."

"Would you like to go?"

Zheng Zhaoxia's sound of chopping vegetables stopped abruptly, and she squinted at Yu Mobai, "I told you to clean up your bedroom, have you done it?"

"Ha ha."

Yu Mobai gave a dry laugh and quit the kitchen, which is a place of right and wrong, but the new year is more lively when there are more people in the family. He likes lively, not to mention that he hasn't seen grandma for a long time.

During the Spring Festival, the temperature changes a lot. Yesterday it was several degrees below zero, but today it is sunny.

The children playing with fireworks downstairs were running around, sweating a little, feeling like spring is coming.

"It's only the end of January."

Yu Mobai stood in front of the window and muttered softly, "It doesn't snow during Chinese New Year, I always feel that something is missing."

He went back to the bed, picked up the phone and thought about it, then called Ji Mushu again, then threw it on the bed and went out to pee.

The phone lay quietly on the bed, and after a brief silence, it was dialed out.

"Toot. Toot."

After a few seconds, the phone connected.

Ten seconds later, there was a coughing sound on the phone.

After 30 seconds, the phone hangs up.

Then Yu Mobai came in. He glanced at the phone with a gray screen, curled his lips, "I knew it would be impossible to blacklist me so early, and Uncle Ji won't let me into the house. At worst, let's wait until school starts."

On the morning of New Year's Eve, Yu Mobai drove back to the countryside, an hour's drive from the small county town.

Yu Mobai's grandmother is called Wang Jingchun. She usually lives here by herself. After receiving Yu Mobai's call, she immediately moved out the things she was planning to celebrate the New Year and waited for the bus on the side of the road.

"crunch."

Yu Mobai stopped the car, took off his sunglasses and greeted with a smile, "Grandma, why are you waiting by the side of the road?"

"The roads in the village are not easy to walk, so I moved my things out to save time."

Wang Jingchun is only in her 60s this year, and her health is not very good. Her legs and feet often hurt. These are old problems and there is no way to cure them. However, without delaying her walking, she waved with a smile, "Hurry up and load the things in the car."

Yu Mobai looked at it, hey, it's been a long-term product, which probably emptied the family's property.

I loaded my things into the car and drove for more than an hour back to the family courtyard.

When he was moving things home, behind a window upstairs, Ji Zhigang watched the scene silently.

Especially when seeing Wang Jingchun.

This is how the thirty started.

If there is Zhihu now, Yu Mobai would like to ask a question. Which day do you think is the most flavorful before and during the Chinese New Year?
It is estimated that a large number of people will think that it is the day of New Year's Eve.

After all, the preparation process is the most anticipated.

Especially the process of pasting Spring Festival couplets, sticking window grilles, and preparing New Year's Eve dinner.

Full of strong New Year flavor.

At noon, Central 1 began to broadcast programs about the Spring Festival Gala. The familiar host and familiar music made everyone look forward to the Spring Festival Gala in the evening.

The small county is not big, and compared to Shengjing, it has more flavor of the year.

Beginning in the afternoon, the sound of firecrackers outside has already begun to sound, and the streets and alleys are full of children's laughter.

Every household has also started to prepare New Year's Eve dinner. Although the small county is not big, it has many rules.

There must be an even number of dishes on the New Year's Eve dinner table, which is more auspicious.

And New Year's Eve is not really eaten at night, usually in the afternoon.

There was one more person at the dining table, and the atmosphere was much more lively. The family of three basically chatted around Wang Jingchun.

After eating, Yu Mobai sat on the sofa picking his teeth with a full belch, and Yu Jinsheng brought back many bottles of good wine from the supermarket, which had a bit of stamina.

Seeing that there was still some time, he fell asleep directly on the sofa, and when he woke up again, it was already dark.

It's already seven o'clock in the evening, and the Spring Festival Gala is about to start.

There was a familiar and reassuring sound of chopping stuffing from the kitchen. This was the dumpling that was ready to be eaten after twelve o'clock.

The couple were busy in the kitchen. Seeing Yu Mobai woke up, Wang Jingchun peeled an orange for him, and Yu Mobai ate it unceremoniously.

Then I went to the balcony and started calling New Year greetings.

The gifts given this year were much better than last year. Except for a few very important people, the rest were given by the people below.

"It's a sketch, let's see it."

Wang Jingchun shouted suddenly.

Zheng Zhaoxia, Yu Jinsheng and Yu Mobai who had just put down the phone returned to the sofa.

Perhaps this is the attraction of the Spring Festival Gala to everyone in this era.

The skit was performed by Guo Donglin, and Yu Mobai didn't like to watch it that much, so he lowered his hair and blessed the text message.

At this time, if you don’t have a few New Year greeting text messages on your mobile phone during Chinese New Year, others will look down on you.

Yu Mobai also chose one at random, and then skipped over Chen Zhixi.

In the end, he stared blankly at a note called "teacher" in the mobile communication. He really couldn't remember when he saved a teacher's contact information, and he couldn't remember which teacher it was, but he didn't bother to think about it, so he sent it directly.

Soon, the mobile phone received a reply with a "ding ding ding bang".

The one who returned the fastest was the one called "Teacher".

"Senior Yu, Happy New Year! Am I the first to reply to your message!"

Damn it, when did she save her phone number and change the note to prevent him from finding out.

Yu Mobai recognized at a glance that this was a message from Chen Zhixi. His mobile phone originally stored one of Chen Zhixi's mobile phone numbers, but this girl secretly stored another one?
"Ding~Senior Yu, do you really want to skip me for Chinese New Year text messages? I haven't received any text messages on my other mobile phone!"

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo"

"Senior Yu, why don't you speak?"

The phone kept ringing, and Yu Mobai simply sent her another phone number a New Year's greeting text message.

"Ding~"

The phone rang again.

"Damn, it's not over yet."

Yu Mobai picked up the phone only to realize that it was Yu Xinran who sent the text message, "Scumbag, are you reluctant to send me a text message for the New Year's blessing? I have a grudge."

"Women are troublesome, and this has to be compared."

After all, Yu Mobai still sent a new message, "Sister Zhu Ran finds a good man in the new year and gets married."

"roll."

Yu Xinran's reply was simple and clear, and Yu Mobai just smiled and didn't bother to reply.

The party came to its climax at twelve o'clock, and the sound of firecrackers downstairs had been deafeningly overshadowed the sound of the TV.

Yu Jinsheng also pulled a few firecrackers and threw them to Yu Mobai, "You have grown up too, and I will leave the work of setting off firecrackers to you in the future."

"have to."

Yu Mobai lit a cigarette from Yu Jinsheng's cigarette case, put it in his mouth, and went downstairs directly with the firecracker.

Just happened to meet Ji Mushu and Ji Zhigang who came out to set off firecrackers in the same unit.

"Happy New Year, Uncle Ji."

Yu Mobai greeted with a smile.

Ji Zhigang pretended he couldn't see it, and turned his head and said to Ji Mushu, "Wooden comb, let's set off the firecrackers for a while, so go and get rid of the bad luck of last year."

Hey, is this little old man talking about him?
Yu Mobai raised his eyebrows and ran out to set off firecrackers.

With Ji Zhigang at the side, it is impossible for him to strike up a conversation with Ji Mushu.

Lit the hanging whip, watched the crackling flames spewing out like tongues of fire, and the overflowing confetti, Yu Mobai grinned.

New year, new weather.

Originally planned to turn around and leave, but was stopped by Ji Mushu, "Yu Mobai."

"hold head high?"

He was a little surprised that Ji Mushu called him out.

"Let's go out for a walk?"

"wooden comb."

Ji Zhigang wanted to stop it.

"Dad, I'll just go out for a stroll, and I'll be back in a while. You should go home and cook dumplings first."

"Then come back early and don't stay outside for too long."

Ji Zhigang turned around and looked at Yu Mobai, "Did you bring your grandma over for the New Year?"

"Ang, yes."

Yu Mobai nodded.

Ji Zhigang didn't speak, just turned and left.

Whoa, that's really rude.

"Let's go."

Ji Mushu shook his head, and the long hair on his shoulders swayed accordingly.

In just a few days, Ji Mushu's small face became haggard a lot, and the pointed oval face became more and more obvious.

His eyes were no longer as clear as before, and his brows were always furrowed together.

Yu Mobai took Ji Mushu's little hand and walked out of the yard, but she didn't refuse.

Two people walked side by side on the road.

The bustling scene during the day no longer exists. On New Year’s Eve, people basically only leave the stall for half a day, and there are only some garbage left by the stall owners on both sides of the road.

The street lights on both sides of the road were still dim, and they flickered from time to time.

There are basically no cars, only traffic lights standing alone on the road.

But the road is not deserted.

As the two walked along the road, the sound of firecrackers could be heard everywhere, as well as bright fireworks bursting into blossoms in the sky.

"wooden comb."

Yu Mobai wanted to explain.

"I don't want to talk, I just want to walk quietly."

Ji Mushu shook his head lightly, "Just walk with me."

Yu Mobai turned his head, and under the street lamp, Ji Mushu's side face was so beautiful that people couldn't figure it out, especially the tall nose bridge and the thin cherry lips, which looked particularly three-dimensional under the dim light.

His fingers were cold, and even though he tried hard to hold them tightly, he still couldn't cover them.

The breeze blows, bringing the pungent smell of gunpowder smoke.

The shadows of the two people were long and long under the streetlights, and they walked around corners, except that their hands were still holding each other, as if they were strangers who had never looked at each other.

After the Shura field, the two met for the first time, without those pale and superfluous explanations, they were very calm with each other.

Especially Ji Mushu, she seems to have grown up in an instant.

Even knowing that Yu Mobai still likes another person, when the two of them parted ways downstairs, they still slightly raised the corners of their mouths and said, "Happy New Year."

Yu Mobai also smiled and put the broken hair on her forehead behind her ears, just when he was about to speak, his feet suddenly exploded.

"Wood grass!"

Just as he was about to create some atmosphere, he was suddenly broken by the sound of firecrackers.

"Damn it, which family's brat is it!"

Turning his head to look, he was still the same brat as last time, he was covering his mouth and snickering, seeing Yu Mobai looking this way, he quickly dropped the lighter in his hand and ran back home.

"It's getting late, go back."

Ji Mushu gently broke free from Yu Mobai's palm, and waved his sleeves without taking away a cloud.

It's just that the moment he turned around, the nostalgia in the corner of his eyes was still clearly visible.

Yu Mobai stood at the door of the unit feeling a little lost, watching the bursts of fireworks in the sky, and turned his head directly to go home.

"Little bastard, let you set off a firecracker, where have you been?"

As soon as he entered, Zheng Zhaoxia sat at the door and waited for him, "What do you think, let Ji Zhigang knock on the door and tell me that you and Mushu went out?"

"Uncle Ji came to tell."

Yu Mobai was stunned for a moment, "Maybe he is afraid that I will abduct the wooden comb."

"What do you mean, you have a choice?"

"No."

"Okay, okay, go in quickly, the dumplings will be cold if you don't eat them."

Zheng Zhaoxia urged impatiently, "I really don't know how you, a little bastard, were born."

Yu Mobai chuckled, and immediately forgot the sadness just now, listening to the cheerful music on the TV, he ate a large plate of dumplings in one go.

This is the attitude that Chinese New Year should have.

It's almost time after eating dumplings.

At this time, the Spring Festival Gala is almost over.

Wang Jingchun couldn't last so long and went back to sleep after eating the dumplings.

After the last skit, Yu Mobai also turned off the TV.

He didn't go back to the room for fear of disturbing grandma's sleep, so he simply lay on the sofa and prepared to make do for the night.

"Go to bed early, I have to go out to pay New Year's greetings tomorrow morning."

Zheng Zhaoxia warned, "Don't stay up late."

"I know mom."

Yu Mobai nodded in agreement, but he usually sleeps late, so he couldn't fall asleep at this point, so he simply took out his mobile phone to chat.

In this way, I fell asleep without knowing it.

Mobai was woken up at around [-]:[-] the next morning, and the living room was full of the smell of dumplings.

After breakfast, Yu Mobai simply tidied up again, and some guests came to pay New Year's greetings.

In fact, the whole family used to go out to pay New Year's greetings to others.

But since Mobai Supermarket's business is booming, and Yu Mobai's games are booming, everyone has come to his house to pay New Year's greetings by default.

Throughout the morning, there was an endless stream of people coming, almost breaking the threshold.

At eleven o'clock, there was finally no one to be seen.

Yu Mobai took a sip of the remaining tea, "Damn it, these people can drink it, Dad, this is all the tea I brought back for you, you just let them spoil it."

"A piece of tea, why are you so stingy, just drink it."

While the father and son were chatting, the doorbell rang again.

"Grass, there are still people paying New Year's greetings at this late hour."

Yu Mobai got up to open the door, still muttering in a low voice, "Who the fuck is that?"

The door opened.

A family of four stood neatly at the door with gifts in their hands.

"Uncle Ji?"
