Life 1984

Chapter 178 Sister-in-law is here [Please subscribe]

Back home, Li Yunhai and his elder sister posted Spring Festival couplets and window grilles together.

By about five o'clock in the afternoon, the family had prepared a sumptuous dinner.

In fact, in the Meishan area, New Year's Eve dinner is not popular, but New Year's breakfast is customary, which is different from the custom in Xizhou.

Not only do you have to have a good meal on the morning of the New Year's Eve, but you also have to have a good meal on the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year. This is called chief.

There are several legends about the custom of eating New Year's Eve dinner. One is that the Hunan army went out to war before dawn. To commemorate this feat, people changed the custom of eating New Year's Eve dinner to having New Year's Eve breakfast.The places with this custom are the main areas of the Hunan Army.

There is another saying that during the Anti-Japanese War, the soldiers who participated in the war set out in the early morning. In order for them to have a reunion dinner, the villagers had the reunion dinner in the morning. This tradition has been continued.

But now that Li Yunhai is rich, during the Chinese New Year, his meals are all big fish and meat, and there are endless delicacies every day just like the Chinese New Year.

The wind was blowing coldly, the weather was extremely cold, and it seemed like it would snow at any time.

Li Yunhai finished his work, washed his hands, and stood at the gate, looking at the mountains opposite, and thought of Lin Zhi again. He wondered what that naughty little girl was doing at the moment.Are you also preparing for New Year’s Eve dinner?
Suddenly it began to drizzle in the sky, and there were snow flakes in the rain.

In the south, any snowfall can cause a sensation among children, because it is so rare to see snow all year round.

And if it snows, it's not far from real snow.

Li Yunhai stretched out his hands to catch the falling snow flakes, which fell into his palms. They were cold, but when his body warmed up, they immediately turned into ice water.

Suddenly, Li Yunhai saw a car driving towards this direction.

It is rare to see a car like this in this remote country!
Li Yunhai thought to himself, it's the Chinese New Year, it's a cold day, and a blizzard is about to happen, which leader is here to inspect the work?
When the car approached, Li Yunhai saw clearly that the car still had a Xizhou license plate.

wrong!

This license plate?
Provincial Department!

Isn't this Lin Zhenbang's car?
Li Yunhai was in a state of shock and confusion when the car swayed past the adobe road and stopped in front of him.

The car door opened and a pair of small women's leather shoes stuck out.

Immediately afterwards, a tall, beautiful woman with waterfall-like black hair got out of the car.

She was wearing a festive red cotton-padded jacket, which made her snow-white and shining face even more bright and attractive.

"Hey, don't you recognize me?" She smiled pretty, revealing her jade-like white teeth, and breathed out a mist-like breath, which was sprayed directly on Li Yunhai's face.

Li Yunhai's chest suddenly burst out with intense surprise and exclamation!
Like crazy, he stepped forward, stretched out his arms, picked up the person in front of him, and spun him around twice.

"Ling Zhi! Why are you here?" Li Yunhai didn't care much and kissed her face like a chicken pecking at rice. He couldn't get enough of her.

There is a slight coolness on her face, and there is a special fragrance that makes people fall in love with her and don't want to leave again.

"Miss, can I carry my luggage in?" The driver got out of the car and asked respectfully, turning a blind eye to the scene in front of him.

Li Yunhai then put Lin Zhi down, touched his chin awkwardly, and said to the driver, "Leave it to me. Please sit inside. Dinner will be served soon."

The driver smiled, handed the luggage to Li Yunhai, and said, "Comrade Li, I won't eat anymore. I'm following the leader's order to leave the lady to you. I have to rush home to reunite with my family!"

Li Yunhai groaned and asked him to wait, then ran home, took a lot of candies, put them in a bag, took two cigarettes, two bottles of wine, found a piece of red paper, and took out his wallet worth hundreds of dollars. got up.

He put the red envelope in the bag, took it out with the cigarettes and wine, handed it to the driver, and said, "Thank you so much. It's the Chinese New Year. It's hard for you to make this trip. Why don't you have dinner at my house before leaving?"

The driver waved his hand and said you're welcome, then pointed to the sky and said, "It's going to snow soon, so I'd better rush home. Comrade Li, Miss, I'll leave first then. Goodbye!"

Lin Zhi said to the driver: "Uncle Sun, go slower!"

Li Yunhai put everything in the car and said, "Go slowly, Uncle Sun! Happy New Year!"

The driver reluctantly accepted the gift and drove away.

Li Yunhai turned around and hugged Lin Zhi's waist. Their noses were touching, their foreheads were touching, and their lips were pressed against their lips.

"Ling Zhi, tell me quickly, why are you here?"

"Hey, didn't you see it? I came by car."

"It's the Chinese New Year today! Are you still coming?"

"Oh - you don't like me coming? Then I'll leave?"

"Don't even think about running away once you're here! Do you miss me?"

"Do you miss me?"

"Think about it! I think about it so much that I want to fly to Xizhou to find you."

"Then even if you arrive in Xizhou, you won't be able to see me. My family has gone to my grandma's house to celebrate the New Year. I insist on coming to you, but my parents can't control my temper, so they can only send a car to take me here."

Lin Zhi fell softly into Li Yunhai's arms.

"Sister-in-law!" Li Yunfang and others ran out and shouted, "Sister-in-law is here!"

Only then did Lin Zhi let go of Li Yunhai. Just now, she almost melted into Li Yunhai's hand like snowflakes.

Yunfang's words of "sister-in-law" made Lin Zhi extremely happy!

"Yunfang!" Lin Zhi smiled brightly, untied the white scarf, hung it around Yunfang's neck, and said with a smile, "It looks good on you, so I gave it to you."

Li Yunfang smiled shyly, touched this soft and warm scarf, and asked: "Sister-in-law, what kind of hair is this? It's so comfortable!"

Lin Zhi helped her put on the scarf and said, "This is cashmere. My aunt brought it back from Italy. I have two. This one was specially brought here for you."

"Italian cashmere scarf! It must be very expensive, right?"

"It's not expensive. Your elder brother can make money just by selling any machine."

Li's grandparents, parents, younger siblings, all ran out.

Lin Zhi called them one by one.

Zhang Shuwen held her hand and laughed non-stop: "Ling Zhi, you come to my house to celebrate the New Year! That's great, my house likes to be crowded and lively. Come and sit in the house, it's too cold outside."

Lin Zhi pursed her lips and smiled, with a warm smile on her lips: "Auntie, I just came to your house for dinner. Your food is so delicious!"

Zhang Shuwen pulled her into the house: "Okay, there are a lot of dishes! Yunhai also bought wild boar meat and pheasant, saying they were prepared for you. Does he know you are coming?"

Lin Zhi looked back at him, revealing two proud dimples.

Li Yunhai laughed, carried her luggage, and walked into the house.

Lin Zhi brought a backpack and a suitcase.

The suitcase is the Shuangmei brand suitcase that she and Li Yunhai bought when they traveled to Huacheng.

She opened it, took out a large package of gifts, and gave them to everyone in the Li family.

Having Linzhi at home is like having a fish in the water, like a vine with a frame, like lyrics and music, and like a guqin being stringed. Everything becomes harmonious, happy, lively and lovely.

Li Yunhai looked at her and realized why some people said that women are the best feng shui in the family.

He was so at ease at the moment.

The word "an" means there is a woman under the house, right?
If you have a house and a wife, you will have peace of mind.

The Li family was full of love for Lin Zhi and regarded her as the apple of their eyes.

Lin Zhi was not a guest, she completely regarded herself as the hostess here.

She looked around at the renovated house and commented that this big villa was just comfortable and much more spacious than the city.

There is a terrace in front and a courtyard in the back, which is open and bright; there is sky above and earth below, which is solid and solid.

Li Yunhai took her to his bedroom.

Lin Zhi was shocked as soon as she walked in!

This room couldn't be said to be similar to the layout of her home in Xizhou, it could only be said to be exactly the same!
The furniture, colors, and placement are all like home.It seems that I pushed the wrong door and returned home again!

There’s even a piano!
He put his heart into it!

Li Yunhai held the door frame with his hand, leaned against the door and said with a smile: "I couldn't find a piano of your brand, so I bought this one at Xizhou Musical Instrument Factory."

The time when Xizhou started selling pianos can be traced back to the 1920s.At that time, it was mainly purchased and sold by foreign dealers.

In the 1950s, with the establishment of the Xizhou Piano Factory, it began to produce pianos and other musical instruments, providing a channel for local music lovers to purchase musical instruments.

Lin Zhi was so pleasantly surprised that she ran to the piano like a butterfly and opened the lid.

Her slender jade fingers gently swept over the black and white keys, producing a string of melodious notes.

"This piano is very good! The piano at my home was left by the former officials and gentry in Xizhou. It was imported from France and passed through many hands. Later, it was bought by my father."

She sat down on the piano bench, played the piano happily with her hands, and said, "Then we have to come back often in the future, otherwise the piano will get rusty if it is not used for too long."

Li Yunhai stood aside and watched her playing the piano. Everything was so beautiful, and said, "How about you teach Yunfang a simple piece of music, and when she has learned it, let her play it when she has time."

"Okay! I can also teach the fifth sister to play the piano!" Lin Zhi's graceful body swayed rhythmically to the rhythm of the music.

There was a chuckle from outside the door: "Chi!"

It’s fifth sister Li Yunying.

Lin Zhi turned around and waved to her: "Yingzi, come here."

Li Yunying came over shyly and coyly.

Lin Zhi picked her up, sat her on his lap, and then taught her how to play the piano step by step.

Snowflakes floated outside the window.

The pure white snowflakes fell from the sky one after another, like beautiful silver butterflies dancing.The snow is falling more and more, and the snow is flying all over the sky, like smoke but not smoke, like fog but not fog, as if the whole world is shrouded in the vast snow.

Under the window, there is a warm scene of Lin Zhi teaching Yingzi to learn the piano.

What a beautiful and warm life it would be if Yingzi was replaced by his own child in the future?

A happy smile appeared on Li Yunhai's lips.

The fourth child, Li Yunfeng, ran up and shouted from outside: "Brother! Sister-in-law, it's time to eat!"

Lin Zhi chuckled and said, "Here we come!"

Li Yunhai laughed loudly: "I'm not even engaged yet, but you're already married."

Lin Zhi rolled her eyes at him: "Are you quite proud of yourself? Aren't the guests you brought to your door worthless?"

Li Yunhai held her shoulders with both hands and said warmly: "No, you are a priceless treasure."

The dinner was very sumptuous, including a big grass carp with head and tail; a plate of fried meat with chili peppers, spicy and fragrant; a large pot of stewed native chicken, fragrant; a stuffed duck with dried chili peppers, a stir-fried pheasant with chili pepper, and a bowl of oil-fried pheasant. Wild boar ribs.

Of course, there are also Linzhi’s favorite vegetables and pork blood balls.

When it was time to eat, the third child came over on his own without anyone calling him.

This guy was also very cheeky. He sat down on the table, picked up his chopsticks and started eating.

Zhang Shuwen scolded: "Third brother, are you mute? Did you call me sister-in-law?"

The third child swallowed the food in his mouth and shouted to Lin Zhi: "Hello, sister-in-law!"

Lin Zhi stood up, took a gift and handed it to him: "This is a radio, a New Year's gift for you."

The third child immediately put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands, stood up and took the radio. He didn't even bother to eat, so he opened it to read.

Lin Zhi also bought him batteries.

The third child lowered his head and fiddled with the radio, his face beaming as if he had won an international gold medal.

Zhang Shuwen scolded again: "Are you sensible? Why don't you thank sister-in-law?"

The third child said loudly: "Thank you, sister-in-law! I really like this radio."

Li Yunhai shook his head gently and didn't bother to care about him.

After dinner, sporadic firecrackers sounded outside, as well as the sounds of children laughing and playing.

No matter how heavy the wind or snow is, it can’t stop the children’s love and desire for the New Year.

The quiet mountain village was particularly lively tonight.

Li Yunfang turned on the TV in the living room.

With a living room at home, the TV was naturally moved in.

The sky has darkened.

But the sky always seems to be covered with a layer of white fog, and the fluttering snowflakes are getting bigger and bigger.

At seven o'clock, the TV screen suddenly went out, the joyful sound suddenly stopped, and the fluorescent lights above our heads also went out.

"The power is out!" the children wailed.

This situation is all too common in rural areas.

Especially on the nights of Chinese New Year and festivals, there will be almost one power outage, and sometimes there will be two or three power outages.

Either the transformer burned out or the wire in that place was broken.

Adults have long been accustomed to lighting kerosene lamps and doing whatever they have to do.

During their long lives, life without electricity has been the norm, and they have long been accustomed to getting things done without electricity.

Power outages occur frequently in cities, but not as frequently as in rural areas.

Lin Zhi followed her siblings outside to play.

A layer of white snow has accumulated on the roofs, treetops, and grass.

The children in the village all ran out, some were setting off firecrackers, some were playing snowball fights, and they were noisy for a while.

Lin Zhi wore thick cotton shoes and stepped on the grass covered with a layer of snow on the roadside, listening to the squeaking sound.

The New Year's Eve night in the countryside brought her a different life experience.

The third child took the lead in making a snowball and had a snowball fight with his younger siblings.

Several children laughed and played together.

Several neighbor children also joined the fighting group.

Li Yunhai bought a lot of fireworks.

He took some out and let his brothers and sisters play with them.

Yingzi was young, so she didn't let go of her hand in time when the cannon was fired. She was so frightened that she threw it away when it was about to explode. The cannon swam around at her feet and made a loud pop, which scared her to tears.

Li Yunhai taught her how to fire the cannon, and asked her to insert the cannon into the soft ground. After lighting the cannon, she could turn around and run away a few meters.

Lin Zhi set off firecrackers in the city. After lighting the fire, he took advantage of the push of the gunpowder to release his hands slightly, and then covered his ears with both hands.

Bah!With a loud sound, the cannon cracked in the sky.

When there is a power outage in rural areas, it is the happiest time for children to play.

The moment the call came, it was the craziest moment for everyone.

All the light bulbs in the village suddenly lit up, and the strong current caused the light bulbs to emit unusual brightness!

"The call is coming!" The whole village will shout, and the sound will vibrate and echo in the valley.

People who did not have TV sets at home began to walk to homes with TV sets, and some even brought their own small benches.

Several uncles and relatives of Li Yunhai's family rushed to his house as soon as he received a call and got a good seat to watch TV.

The power outage lasted for almost an hour, and it was almost eight o'clock, and the 1985 Spring Festival Gala was about to begin.

A shout came from outside the door: "Comrade Li Yunhai! Happy New Year!"

As soon as Li Yunhai heard the voice, he knew that the person coming was Shao Yuqing, and was very surprised.

He quickly stood up and came forward.

It was Shao Yuqing who came, along with a comrade from the police station.

"Oh, Leader Shao! Hello! Hello, comrade, please sit down quickly." Li Yunhai shook hands with them and invited them to sit by the fire.

Li Deming smiled and handed them two smiling plums, and then ordered his family to make tea and get wine to drink.

Shao Yuqing said, "Don't be busy. Today is the Chinese New Year. I will go home later. I am here to return the 50 yuan that Li Yunfang lost."

Li Yunfang asked in surprise: "Can I get my lost money back?"

The comrade from the police station said: "Leader Shao found our police station, we conducted a patrol nearby, found the thief who stole the money, and arrested him. The money you lost will be recovered in full."

As he spoke, he took out 50 yuan and handed it to Li Yunfang.

Li Yunfang took the recovered money and was as happy as picking up a gold ingot: "Great! Brother, the money I lost has been found again! Thank you, thank you, uncle police!"

Shao Yuqing and the others had a glass of wine at Li Yunhai's house and then left.

The 50 yuan was recovered, adding a little more joy to this lively New Year's Eve.

Li Deming took out the red envelope and gave one to each member of his family.

Li Yunhai also sent red envelopes to his family.

When the children got the red envelopes, they jumped up and down with joy. Little did they know that the next morning, these red envelopes would be quietly taken away by adults, saying they would help you save money for studying.

The 1985 Spring Festival Gala was the first to be broadcast live outdoors, but it was rated as the worst ever.

The 1983 Spring Festival Gala and the 1984 Spring Festival Gala were both held in the studio. The venue was relatively small and could only accommodate a few hundred viewers.The Beijin Workers Stadium can accommodate 1.5 spectators, which is much more spectacular than the studio hall in Taiwan.

The idea is excellent, but it is a pity that the facilities, equipment and technical conditions in Taichung are not enough to support the holding of the Spring Festival Gala at the Beijin Workers' Gymnasium.The Spring Festival Gala crew didn't even have walkie-talkies, so all conductors had to rely on wired headsets.The signal of the wired earphones was very poor and intermittent, which caused the crew conductor to often fall into a state of malfunction, making the whole party look very messy, and it took six hours to finish. It was not like the 1983 Spring Festival Gala and the 1984 Spring Festival Gala. The state of flowing clouds and flowing water in one go.

But the show is still good.

Stars gather together and it’s exciting.

"Hometown Love" is very nice. After listening to it once, Lin Zhi learned it and hummed along with it.

"The mountains of my hometown, the water of my hometown, my hometown has the footprints of my childhood. There have been storms and snowfalls, and the laughter of the past is still in my dreams; there is affection in a foreign land, and there is love in a foreign land, but I am always in my dreams. Hometown trip..."

At midnight, there was a continuous sound of firecrackers outside.

"Crack!" The constant sound of firecrackers announces the arrival of the new year!

The blazing flames ignite the most exciting moment of New Year's Eve.The night in the mountain village is shrouded in bright firelight, transforming into an auspicious and moving picture.

Snowflakes and fireworks dance together in the air, interweaving a moving mountain village music.

Li Yunhai set off long firecrackers on behalf of his family.It was noisy until after one o'clock, and the sound of firecrackers slowly stopped, but the sound of firecrackers was always heard inadvertently in the distance.

Of course there is no need to stay up late, just go to bed when it's time to sleep.

What's more, Li Yunhai has long missed Lin Zhi and became ill!

At around two o'clock in the evening, Li Yunhai and Lin Zhi returned to the room, undressed and went to bed.

"Have you missed me? Honestly!" Lin Zhi lay on his chest and looked at each other.

Li Yunhai used actions to interpret his thoughts.

At this moment, with a beautiful woman in my arms, how can I have time to speak?
The strength accumulated for several days is rushing through the body, eager to merge and connect with another force.

……

If it weren't for the fact that the next day was the first day of the Lunar New Year, Li Yunhai would have stayed up all night with Lin Zhi.

People in the Meishan area pay attention to breakfast as the first meal of the New Year. This meal is often more sumptuous than the reunion dinner.

Lin Zhi fell into a daze when she was pulled up by Li Yunhai: "It's time to eat!"

"Huh? What time is it? It's only seven o'clock! Just eat? I'm not used to eating in the morning, I just have a bowl of noodles."

"On New Year's Day, we are here to eat, so get up quickly!"

"I couldn't get up, not at all, I just wanted to sleep."

"Be good, after dinner, you can go back to sleep."

Lin Zhi opened her arms: "Hug me."

Li Yunhai hugged her to get up, fearing that she would be cold, so he quickly put her clothes on.

Lin Zhi smiled and kissed him on the face: "Happy New Year!"

Li Yunhai kissed her: "Happy New Year!"

The two of them washed up and came downstairs. The family members were already sitting neatly at the table, waiting for them.

Lin Zhi was a little embarrassed, saying it was too late.

Everyone said everything was fine and the food had just been prepared.

The wind stopped and the snow stopped, and there was a thick sheet of white snow outside, turning the whole world into a vast white color.

After breakfast, the children, led by adults, went from house to house to pay New Year greetings and ask for New Year's candy.

Each child goes out with empty pockets and comes back with several bags full of candy.

Some will even ask for a few red envelopes.

Rural people are very particular about seniority. Whoever has a higher seniority should go to that home first to pay New Year greetings.

Li Deming became the clan leader this year and the party secretary of the village. People in the village would first come to his home to pay New Year greetings.

Members of the village team, including the director, secretary, accountant, cashier, and women's director, were the first to come to Li Deming's home to pay New Year's greetings.

The village secretary, also called a clerk, is the penguin of the two committees of the village branch.

When he ran for village party secretary, although Li Mingshui lost to Li Deming, he did not feel jealous and resented it, but closely cooperated with the party secretary's work.

After a while, Shao Yuqing brought his son over to pay New Year greetings. His son was 17 years old and also attended high school in the county. He was one grade higher than Li Yunfang. When asked, he was actually in the same school.

Shao Yuqing smiled and said, you are of the same age and studying in the same high school, so take care of each other in the future.He especially told his son Shao Weidong to take good care of Yunfang.

Shao Weidong was tall and polite. Perhaps because his father was around, he acted a little reserved. His face turned red when he spoke, and he especially did not dare to look at Li Yunfang.As soon as Li Yunfang looked at him, he blushed and lowered his head.

Li Yunfang pursed her lips and smiled softly, and said quietly to Lin Zhi: "He is the only one who still protects me? I think he is more of a girl than a girl!"

Lin Zhi covered her mouth with her hands and said in a lowered voice, "He likes you, so he acts extra shy."

Li Yunfang's heart was beating fast: "It's impossible, right? I don't want to fall in love!"

Lin Zhi whispered: "I didn't tell you to fall in love. If you are interested in him, just treat him as friends first."

"No! I don't want it!" Li Yunfang turned her head away coyly.

More and more people come to visit our homes for New Year greetings.

"Ahem! Congratulations on getting rich! Happy New Year!" An old voice came over.

The person who came was Li Guowang.

He was leaning on a cane and seemed to have aged more than ten years.

Li Deming is a person who does not bear grudges, not to mention that he is now the village party secretary. He must do a good job on the surface. He stands up and calls the old party secretary, and then gives up his seat.

Li Guowang sat down and looked at the room full of people. His eyes fell on Shao Yuqing: "Leader Shao, why are you here on the first day of the new year?"

Shao Yuqing replied calmly: "I'm here to wish Section Chief Li a happy New Year."

Li Guowang was shocked, and asked with confusion on his face: "Chief Li? Where did the section chief come from in our village? Li Deming is a serious person, not even a stock-level cadre!"

Shao Yuqing laughed, his eyes shining brightly: "Li Guowang, don't you know? Comrade Li Yunhai is the section chief of the Information Section of the Provincial Bureau of Commerce, and he is also the president of the Provincial Association!"

Li Guowang's body shook violently, and he looked at Li Yunhai in disbelief: "Li Yunhai has already become a section chief? What kind of president has he become? Didn't you quit your job and become a self-employed person?"

Shao Yuqing shook his head gently, feeling that this Li Guowang was nothing more than that. He didn't know anything about such a big figure in his village!No wonder such a person would be dismissed from his post!

Others don't know how powerful Li Yunhai is, but Shao Yuqing knows it clearly.

This is not difficult to see from his respect for Li Yunhai.

However, people who don't understand see it and think that Shao Yuqing is a corporal of courtesy!

How could they have imagined that Shao Yuqing was flattering Li Yunhai?

Not to mention Li Guowang, it was also the first time for other people in the village to hear that Li Yunhai had become the section chief.

Department-level cadres are already out of reach for villagers.

One level up, that’s the county magistrate!

The magistrate of Miemen, the magistrate of the county.

What this old man said was not a joke.

The head of a township is nothing more than a department-level cadre.

Li Yunhai is so young and is already the section chief?

Doesn't that mean that this kid has a bright future?
Everyone showed extremely shocked expressions!

If these words came from Li Yunhai himself or his family, the villagers might still doubt whether they were true or false.

Now that these words came from Shao Yuqing's mouth, who dare not believe it?

But Li Yunhai just smiled modestly and said: "It's a sinecure, a temporary job for training, and no rights at all. The Provincial Association is also an organization without levels and rights. I just did it for fun."

However, no one believed this anymore.

A section chief and a president, can these two positions be just for fun?

You are so lucky, why do you only choose interesting positions?

Doesn't that further prove that you are very capable?
There was a sound of cars outside.

In this small mountain village, the sound of cars is particularly noticeable.

Everyone stood up and looked out the window.

"This is a car from the county!" Li Mingshui had some knowledge and could tell at a glance, "This is a car from the county Construction Bureau. It has been to our village several times."

The person coming is Cui Baogang from the County Construction Bureau!

Cui Baogang strode in and shouted loudly: "Congratulations on getting rich! Happy New Year!"

Li Yunhai and others all stood up to greet him, shook hands and exchanged greetings.

Cui Baogang couldn't help laughing when he saw that even Shao Yuqing was present and had arrived earlier than him.

Sure enough, smart people have a keen sense of smell and know who to send New Year greetings to first.

"Beep!" The sound of a car sounded again outside.

Shiban Village is really lively today!
Everyone in the room stood up again and looked out the window.

"Isn't this a regional car?" Li Mingshui recognized the license plate.

Shao Yuqing was even better. Not only did he recognize the license plate of the region, he also recognized whose car it was.

"Commissioner Zhao is here!" Shao Yuqing was startled and looked at Li Yunhai and Lin Zhi in shock.

Because only Li Yunhai and Lin Zhi could let Commissioner Zhao come down to pay New Year greetings.

Li Yunhai also saw Commissioner Zhao, who got out of the car and walked inside.He quickly walked out and greeted Commissioner Zhao at the door.

"Commissioner Zhao, happy New Year!" Li Yunhai said with a smile, "What strong wind brought Commissioner Zhao here?"

"Comrade Li Yunhai, happy New Year!" Commissioner Zhao took off the leather gloves on his hands, shook hands with Li Yunhai, shook his arm vigorously, and said, "We are here to express our condolences to the poor mountain people. When we passed by, I thought of your home. Here, I came here specifically to ask for a cup of tea."

This was said perfectly.

Li Yunhai invited him in and served him tea and wine.

Li Yunfang was responsible for pouring tea, and Lin Zhi was responsible for pouring wine.

Others didn't know Lin Zhi, but Commissioner Zhao had some impressions.

Moreover, he came to Li Yunhai's house today not just to pass by, nor to pay New Year's greetings to the Li family. Instead, he heard that Lin Zhenbang's daughter was in Shiban Village, so he came here specifically to visit.

Coincidentally, Commissioner Zhao got up early in the morning and called Lin Zhenbang, saying that he was going to Xizhou to pay Lin Zhenbang New Year greetings.

Lin Zhenbang smiled and said you don't have to come, we are not at home, we are celebrating the New Year at my mother-in-law's house, and even my daughter went to your Meishan to play!
Commissioner Zhao also wanted to ask, where did Miss Lin go to Meishan?Lin Zhenbang then realized that he had made a mistake and kept silent about the matter. After chatting for a few words, he hung up the phone.

But Commissioner Zhao is a good person, and he immediately thought of Li Yunhai!
The only person Mei Shan can connect with Lin Zhenbang is Li Yunhai!

So he made an excuse to come down to visit the poor households, but in reality he was here to explore Li Yunhai's reality.

He guessed it right!
As soon as he saw Lin Zhi's beautiful face, as well as her overall style and temperament, he guessed that this girl was Lin Zhenbang's daughter.

It must be said that the higher the level of this leader, the greater his understanding and guessing ability.

When he learned Lin Zhi's name, he became even more certain.

Commissioner Zhao did not expose this relationship, but was more respectful to Lin Zhi and Li Yunhai.

What kind of relationship does it take for Lin Zhi to come to Li Yunhai's house to celebrate the New Year?

This is something you can figure out with your butt!
And this matter was approved by Lin Zhenbang!
This shows that Li Yunhai has fallen into Lin Zhenbang's eyes.

No wonder Li Yunhai became the section chief at a young age.

This person's future future is limitless!

It is easier to make friends with the leader if you get to know the leader's family.

So after Commissioner Zhao sat down, drank tea, sipped wine, cracked melon seeds, and peeled peanuts, he didn't say anything about leaving.

Cui Baogang, Shao Yuqing and others were extremely shocked!
How powerful is this Li Yunhai that he can actually make Commissioner Zhao from the region come to pay New Year's greetings first!

Impressive!
They are also even more fortunate that they arrived in time and at the right time!

Not only did he make friends with Li Yunhai, but he also made friends with the regional commissioners.

Everyone was gathered together, chatting and talking, so unhappy.

Other villagers came to Li Yunhai's house to pay New Year's greetings. They were surprised when they saw so many cars parked in front of his house. They looked at the license plates, including those from the county and the city. They couldn't help but look down on Li Yunhai's family. A few glances.

A person's social circle is determined by his or her own strength and ability.

On the other hand, a person's own strength can also be seen from his social circle.

The guests who come to Li Yunhai's family are either rich or noble, which just proves Li Yunhai's power.

Seeing all this, Li Guowang finally understood why he lost.

The relationship between Li Yunhai's family has long been astounding!
How can Li Guowang fight against such a family?

At noon, several banquets were held at Li Yunhai's family, and the seats were full of guests.

The entire Shiban Village, the entire bustle and joy of the Spring Festival, was occupied by Li Yunhai's family.

Li Mingshui discussed with Li Deming: "Party Secretary, should we also make two dragons and two lions today to make it lively?"

Dragon and lion dancing are the customs of my hometown.

The children of Meishan, who advocate martial arts, also like to dance dragons and lions. The young people in several villages also compete in competitions, just like the dragon boat races during the Dragon Boat Festival.

When Li Deming first took charge, of course he had to support such activities, and he had to do it well!
The villagers do not work for free. Every young and strong man must be given a red envelope.

一条大龙标准是10个人，0号至9号，龙珠是0号，龙头龙尾为1到9。

There was also a long queue of 16 people.

Li Deming said, if we want to do it, we will have two long queues!
Two long queues, that's 32 people.

For the big holiday, everyone needs at least 6 yuan in red envelopes, which is 192 yuan.

There are also people who perform lion dances, hold dragon lanterns, and beat gongs and drums, and they all have to give red envelopes.

Li Deming glanced at his son and said, "Shall we pay for this lucky money?"

Li Yunhai said with a smile: "I will pay for it! I will pay for the dragon and lion's money. In addition, I will hang a green leaf on the door of my house and put 100 yuan in the red envelope! Whoever has the ability can come and grab it!"

Everyone cheered loudly and said that this year will be a lively one.

This was the first time Lin Zhi heard about it, and it was also the first time she saw dragon and lion dances in rural areas, and she was very curious.

Originally, for such a show, one would have to wait several days before playing, and sometimes even have to wait until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month to perform the dragon and lion dance.

But the situation today is special. Commissioner Zhao from the district, Cui Baogang from the county, Shao Yuqing from the township, so many leaders are here, so of course they want to join in the fun.

So we organized manpower that afternoon.

Having money works well.

Young people in the village enthusiastically signed up, and 32 dancing members, 4 lion dancing members, a few holding dragon lanterns, and a few beating gongs and drums were all assembled in no time.

Dragons and lions are placed in the attic of the ancestral hall when not in use.

Li Deming immediately opened the door of the ancestral hall and invited the dragon and lion to come out.

The men put on auspicious clothes and put the colorful dragon body on the dragon head, body and tail made of bamboo strips.

Each section is equipped with a wooden handle for easy dancing.

During the dance, one person holds an orb, which is a spherical lantern, and leads the dance in front of the dragon's head, performing actions such as the dragon grabbing the orb, and the two dragons playing with the bead.

Lin Zhi looked at the applause and said to Li Yunhai: "Fortunately, I came to your house to celebrate the New Year, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to see such a wonderful performance."

Not to mention Linzhi, even a country person will not be able to watch such a performance in a few years.

Young people all go out to work and come back just before the New Year. They have to go out again after the New Year. They are busy all year long and finally go home to rest for a few days. Who still engages in these customs?
On the afternoon of the first day of the Lunar New Year, Shiban Village performed dragon and lion dances again.

Li Yunhai followed his instructions and hung a 100-yuan green on the door of his home. In the end, the two lion dance teams cooperated and bit off the green, which was divided equally among several people.

Li Yunhai also paid for the hard work of the team members.

After such a fuss, it was evening again, so Li Yunhai stayed with Commissioner Zhao, Shao Yuqing and others to have dinner.

At around nine o'clock in the evening, the guest left and the host said goodbye.

Shiban Village, which had been busy all day, finally became quiet.

Lin Zhi played at Li Yunhai's house until the sixth day of the Lunar New Year.

The unit in Xizhou had already started work, but Linzhi asked for leave.

On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, Zhuang Yong drove to Li Yunhai's house and took them to Xizhou.

Li Yunhai took Lin Zhi and Li Yunfang to Xizhou.

This was the first time for Li Yunfang to go to the provincial capital, and she was extremely curious along the way.

When he arrived in Xizhou, Li Yunhai first put his luggage and other things at his residence.

Sihai Store will not officially open until the eighth day of the Lunar New Year.

Li Yunhai took his sister to visit the store.

Everything Li Yunfang sees feels fresh.

She was very happy to see that the house where her eldest brother lived was so nice.

When he saw the Sihai store opened by his eldest brother, he even shouted out: "Brother, you opened such a big store? No wonder you made money!"

Li Yunhai opened the store door and invited Lin Zhi and his sister to come in.

Zhuang Yong returned to the dormitory and suddenly ran out and shouted: "Manager Li! Uncle Peng is here! He seems to have been beaten!"

Li Yunhai was startled, and when he came to the men's dormitory, he saw Peng Dianzi lying alone on the single bed, his face was sallow, his beard was unkempt, and his face and hands were covered with scars!
Li Yunhai asked in a deep voice: "Uncle Peng, what's going on?"

Peng Dianzi's eyes went straight and he murmured: "Li Yunhai, you are back. I'm fine, I just got beaten up. I'm fine, I've long been used to it."

Li Yunhai asked: "Who beat you? Didn't you go to Hanzhou? When did you come back?"

Peng Dianzi sat up and said, "I went to Hanzhou and was beaten. I just came back yesterday. It's okay, I'm really okay."

Li Yunhai sighed softly and said, "You should go back to your hometown with me to celebrate the New Year!"

Peng Dianzi laughed: "Okay!"

Unfortunately, his nose and face were bruised and swollen, and his smile looked a little weird.

Just as Li Yunhai was about to speak, the phone outside rang suddenly.

The store isn't open yet. Who's going to call right now?
