Traveling through Xueba is full of blessings

Chapter 490 Family Portrait (Part Two)

On February [-], [-], we bid farewell to the old year and welcomed the new year, leaving [-] with the bittersweet taste.Today is a day to show a new look.

Xia Tian counted on her fingers, she was about to give birth in a few days.

Don't talk about going downstairs to arrange the New Year's Eve dinner now, the family members wish she would not leave the house easily.

Because Xia Tian started to feel uncomfortable in his stomach from last night, he just endured it and healed up, but the whole family dared not be careless.

At 03:30 in the afternoon, Song Yaping was sweating profusely. Aunt Ye, Aunt Ye, Xu Qing, and Wang Hehua, served meals and dishes outside the house.

The women chattered and chatted about homework even when they were busy.

The men were divided into two factions. Grandpa Song played poker with young Uncle Ye, while Uncle Ye played chess with his elderly father.

Occasionally, Second Uncle Ye would whisper embarrassingly: "Dad, this game doesn't count. You always said that you didn't try your best, and I won't win by force."

Ye Boying took the candied haws that Wang Hehua made for Xia Tian, ​​and ran around the room.With a small mouth and a particularly crisp voice, he shouted at Xia Tian upstairs:

"Sister-in-law! Go downstairs and eat red skewers! It's the same as a red lantern, and it's so beautiful! I'm eating, you watch, go downstairs! You are upstairs by yourself, how sad you are alone."

Xia Tian was half lying on the chair, rolling his eyes helplessly.

This brat doesn't know what's going on, he says she's ugly, and often looks at her with distaste, but at the same time he likes to play with her, trouble her hair, want to braid her, and cut her fingers Gail.

But Xia Tian wants to avoid everything, the seven-year-old has no depth, and loves to jump on her very much.

It is estimated that this family is full of older people, and her mother still listens to her in everything, only I can not rely on her and play with her.

Ye Zhiqing, the owner of the Ye Family Courtyard, took the initiative to ask for instructions from leader No. [-] this year, and he was very moved and asked for instructions.

He said that in the past few decades, his younger sister who married far away left a lot of things at her husband's house and went back to her mother's house just for the New Year. His youngest brother came back from the south by train with the whole family.

Before his mother passed away, he was always absent. From the moment he put on this military uniform, he has been absent for decades. With his ideals in mind, he pursued his ambitions and glory year after year.

However, this time is rare. He thinks that this time, when his temples are still full of gray hair, and when his father is still alive, he will take the New Year seriously. He hereby asks for leave to accompany his old father and old father-in-law, and to play the role of a good son and a good uncle. Have a reunion dinner.

……

Ye Zhiqing had a gentle appearance, and his footsteps were slightly lighter than usual. After the driver opened the door and got out of the car, when he saw the neighbors and friends in the compound from a distance, he waved to them and said "Happy Chinese New Year".

When the meeting was about to start on time at four o'clock in the afternoon, Ye Zhiqing opened the door with his briefcase in hand.

"Brother? Are you really back? I thought you were having a military-civilian party! At least you can't bear to part with those subordinates! You're going to eat in the cafeteria with the soldiers!"

Aunt Ye was very happy. Although she had notified Ye Zhiqing in advance with an orderly tone and threatened with "you can figure it out", she knew in her heart that the higher the position, the more helpless she would be.But I don't want Ye Zhiqing to do it this year.

Song Yaping also raised her eyebrows.

Women usually don't ask for it, but these years they celebrate the New Year by themselves and their husbands are not at home.

Song Yaping was also so happy at this moment that she felt mixed feelings in her heart, and her voice was full of sighs:

"Lao Ye, we have to take a picture later. Last year it was me and Xia Tian. This year, hehe, it's really good. Is Xiao Zhao gone? I'll send him some candy. It's New Year's Eve, let him sweeten Sweeten your mouth."

Song Yaping hurried into the living room and grabbed a handful of tea trays.

Aunt Ye made fun of the old couple and said, "Brother, look at my sister-in-law happy. It's really rare to see such joy in the face!"

Xia Tian is now a key protection target, Wang Hehua deliberately went upstairs to wake up the pregnant woman who was still dozing off in the noisy voice.

The place where Grandpa Ye and Grandpa Song gave way to the host, and later it was the place where Grandpa Song joked about the "guest of honor" was more vigorous, and everyone was considered to be seated.

Grandpa Ye raised his glass to everyone in the Ye family, full of emotions, and sighed in a very tone:

"People, you will experience a lot in your life. There are mountains outside the mountains, and there are people outside the people. I always teach you to have ambitions, and people who have ideals are not afraid. Now I want to change the saying. Only when you have a family are you not afraid of anything, and you can climb bravely. Gao Feng. Sigh! Let’s not talk about it, let the in-laws say a few words, [-] must have a good start.”

Grandpa Ye had thought a lot and wanted to say a lot, but in the end it was the day of reunion and he was sad.He wanted to say, "Thank you as a father too."

Grandpa Song smiled, patted Grandpa Ye on the shoulder, and continued:

"When you add a new year, time will not turn back. Every day that passes by, life must be more meaningful.

Your father and I are at the same age, fame and fortune are already taken lightly, I just hope you are safe and healthy.

We must pay attention to this and make a commitment to life, that is the best care for the people around us, and we must be the shoulders that people around us can rely on.We also take care of our bodies. "

Aunt Ye wanted to control herself, but when she saw her father's emotional ups and downs, her eye circles turned red.The more this kind of time, the more I miss her mother.

It was Ye Zhiqing who stood up and toasted, and the atmosphere in the living room reached its peak for a moment:
"Come on, let's raise our glasses to the year of [-]; wish our Ye family will soon have a baby and import, and the population will be prosperous; toast to the prosperity of the motherland and the prosperity of the people in the new year!"

Xia Tian held the boiled water in one hand, supported his clumsy waist with the other, and drank it dry. That incomparably carefree manner was more free and easy than Uncle Ye, who was drinking white wine and planned to drink it to the fullest state today.

There are many lines in Xia Tian's mind:
"May my children be born in good health, may Ye Boxuan's new year go smoothly, may my father and mother be in good health, and may I get a title in the college entrance examination... Please, God, although I am very greedy, But I'm stupid and naive, I believe you can do it."

If God could speak, he would definitely say to Xia Tian: "You are superstitious at such a young age, your destiny is in your own hands."

Because of her heavy body and sleepiness, Xia Tian couldn't participate in the mid-night dumpling meal. She planned to take this opportunity to say everything she wanted to make, so that [-] would go smoothly.

……

Xia Tian went back to her room after dinner. She was lying on the bed, with a smile on her face, muttering softly, repeating the lyrics her grandma sang during Chinese New Year. It was still in [-]:

"The window is papered outside, the big girl is smoking a cigarette bag, the big vat is small, pickled cabbage, the adobe house is fenced, and the next night sleeps with her head turned outward."

After waking up, I have to answer the phone call from Captain Ye, and I have to call the leader to pay New Year's greetings.

Xia Tian fell asleep, and dreamed of entering the vineyard again in her dream. She squatted there and ate the bunches of dewdrops of grapes. The front of her mouth was all purple, so sweet...
