The Great Era of Rebirth: 1993

  Chapter 1034, different years

   It was the first time in his two lives that he saw his family members with Mi to celebrate the New Year. He felt an indescribable joy in his heart, as if his long-cherished wish for many years had finally come true, and the world was worth it.

  The newlyweds, the daughter-in-law is pregnant again, Lao Zhang’s family and Lao Mi’s family together decided to make 22 dishes for this year’s birthday.

   It's rare to get together for the next year. Mi Jian has a quiet temper, saying that he doesn't want too many outsiders coming in and out of the house, making him feel uncomfortable.

  Zhang Xuan understood in seconds, knowing that she had endured this matter for a long time.

  So I discussed with her, and finally gave most of the chefs annual leave, and only kept one Cantonese chef who was the most palatable to her.

   According to Mi Jian’s idea, she doesn’t have a big appetite, and there are many dishes that she is not used to. Those chefs don’t need to be hired after the next year, saying that it can save a lot of money.

   But Zhang Xuan felt that it was not good to dismiss people rashly, and he didn't care about it, but he was afraid of losing face to Li Wendong. After all, these people were invited by the other party, and they had a good relationship with Brother Li. In the end, Wen Yu and his wife came up with a compromise. These chefs would go to work in the Anchang Club after the next year, and he would pay the salary.

  Drunk Tao Ge said domineeringly: "Actually, it doesn't matter if you are fired. With the strength of you and Brother Li, these people dare not talk about it even behind their backs."

  Zhang Xuan answered with a smile: "If you don't come early, if you come early, this job will be handed over to you."

  After dinner, Wen Yu asked Tao Ge: "Is it true that you don't want to celebrate the New Year here?"

   Tao Ge shook his head.

  Li Wendong spoke up: "If you don't come to Zhang Xuan's place to celebrate the New Year, you can come and spend it with me and your sister-in-law. It's the last day tomorrow, so there's no need to run around like that."

  Tao Ge stretched his waist and said, "I have an appointment with Seagate. We will spend this year together in Dunhuang. She called me. The dishes for the New Year are all ready, and they are waiting for me to go."

  The conversation has come to this point, and the few people can't persuade her anymore, Zhang Xuan personally sent her to the airport.

   After Zhao Lei got off the car, Tao Ge, who had drunk too much wine, took the initiative to kiss him.

  The old man didn't back down, stretched out his hand to support her body, and kissed back passionately.

   After three fierce kisses in a row, Tao Ge let go of him and asked, "When is the baby's due date?"

  Zhang Xuan replied: "I was conceived in August last year, and now it is mid-February. The doctor said there are still about three months."

  Tao Ge did the math, "Is that mid-May?"

  Zhang Xuan nodded: "It may be delayed for a week, this depends on the actual situation at the time."

   Tao Ge stroked his hair with his right hand: "Cheng, my sister will come to the capital in May to congratulate you."

   Then she said: "Anyway, it's been more than 3 months. You should spend more time with Mi Jian recently. Don't run around here and there. Come over to Seagate after the baby is born."

  Zhang Xuan also thinks the same way, "Seagate will help you, she is still young and lacks experience in many areas, please help me take care of her."

   Tao Ge rolled his eyes like he usually did, and got out of the car directly.

Back in Nanluoguxiang, Zhang Xuan first watched a movie with Mi Jian, and then she fell asleep and went to sleep, and he went to the kitchen to help with things, washing and choosing vegetables, making it very enjoyable, even Still vying to be the master.

   Ruan Xiuqin knows his cooking skills very well, and Liu Yi and his wife have almost figured it out, so they are very relieved. But grandpa and grandma refused to let him go, and pushed him away from the kitchen, saying that the hands of great writers are very precious, and should only be used for reading and writing, and just relax at other times.

  Zhang Xuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry at this, took a shower with the new Chinese New Year clothes prepared by Mi Jian, and went to the study.

  First I called Lao Du's house, but Shuang Ling was not there, and Ai Qing answered, saying that Shuang Ling had taken her classmates to her aunt's house, and she would be back in the afternoon.

   Called her bodyguard, Chen Yan, and was even more speechless. Shuang Ling gave her the annual leave, and now she is celebrating the New Year in her hometown.

  Hung up the phone, he turned the mobile phone in his hand, complaining why the smiling tiger refused to use the mobile phone, really, it was inconvenient to contact.

  Find out Wenhui's number and call her, but she still doesn't answer.

  But the girl immediately replied to the text message: This year we celebrate the New Year in my hometown in Yangzhou, and my mother and I are cooking in the kitchen.

  Reading the text message twice carefully, Zhang Xuanming realized that Comrade Zhou Rong had a lot of opinions on him this week, which made Wenhui not want to have too much trouble with the other party during the Chinese New Year.

  Zhang Xuan remembered the agreement between the two, and asked: When will you be free after the next year?

  Wen Hui didn't reply directly, but instead asked: I see that the child is about to be born?

  Zhang Xuan: Well, there are still three months.

  Wen Hui: In the second half of the year, I have a performance in the Netherlands in November, and you will come then.

Looking at the text message, Zhang Xuan secretly thought, she won the Liszt International Piano Competition champion in the Netherlands, and she took off in the Netherlands, and the last time he kissed her in the Dutch piano room, this is her blessed land and beautiful place. land?

  Thinking like this, the old man replied excitedly: Okay, save the tickets for me.

   Later on, he sent Wenhui a few short messages in a row, but the latter didn't reply to him again. He seemed very busy.

   Later he called Seagate and Dong Ziyu respectively.

   These women seem to have telepathy today, so they don't answer.

  Seagate didn't answer, it was still within his expectation, this black-bellied person has a strong personality.

   But Dong Ziyu didn't answer it, so he was speechless. Isn't the phone by his side? Is it like Mi Jian, sleeping?

  But it’s broad daylight, and it’s too late today, so you still need to sleep?

   After thinking about it brokenly, Zhang Xuan did not give up, and aimed his last hope at Lilith.

   This time the call will be connected immediately.

   "Husband, happy new year, what do you want from me?" Lilith asked straight to the point.

  It sounded very noisy over there, Zhang Xuan asked: "It's okay, I just want to hear your voice, where are you? Why is it so lively?"

  Lilith said happily: "I went back to my hometown in Qingdao, and now I am at sea. My cousins ​​and I are going fishing. There may be no signal later."

  At this moment, someone shouted over there: "Lilith, come quickly and take a picture of my sister."

   "Oh, okay, right here."

   Lilith responded, and Lilith turned her head and said to Zhang Xuan: "Husband, I'm hanging up, let's talk next time."

  Zhang Xuan asked curiously: "This year's Chinese New Year, why are you still going to sea?"

   Lilith didn't reply, and there was a sense of loneliness on the phone.

  Hey, I can be regarded as a rich man, and I am also a successful man with three wives and four concubines. Damn it, in the end, everyone chatted with me for a long time.

   Fuck!

   Following Chen Risheng's swearing, he spread out his pen and ink, and went to write seriously, continuing to write the sixth volume of "A Song of Ice and Fire".

  At present, I have written 230,000 words intermittently, and there are about 200,000 words left to finish.

  He plans to finish writing Volume 6 in the next two months, and then continue to write Volume 7, trying to finish this series next year and draw a successful conclusion for Penguin Press and readers.

  Writing is like falling in love. Once you get involved, the time passes very quickly, and it will be dark before you know it.

  If it wasn’t for the New Year’s Eve dinner soon, the whole family wouldn’t dare to send Mi Jian in to call him.

  Mi Jian gently pushed open the study door, walked over and asked, "Are there many more?"

  Zhang Xuan replied subconsciously: "Well, I am full of inspiration today, and I probably have to write more."

   Didn’t hear Mi Jian’s words, Zhang Xuan raised his head and said, “If you’re hungry, eat first, don’t wait for me.”

  Mi Jian said with a smile: "Honey, today is Chinese New Year."

  Zhang Xuan was shocked: "What did you say?"

  Mi Jian said: "Today is Chinese New Year."

  Zhang Xuan put down his pen and stood up with a pia: "The previous sentence."

  Mi Jian smiled, reached out to grab his hand and walked towards the door.

  Zhang Xuan asked: "I'm shouting something."

  Mi laughed and said nothing, and led him to the dining table.

  When the five elders outside saw the two coming out holding hands, they all laughed so hard that they could not close their mouths, and hurriedly greeted the two to sit down.

  After taking their seats, Mi Jian's family looked at Ruan Xiuqin, waiting for her to move their chopsticks first.

  Ruan Xiuqin is not so upright, she shirks to let grandpa and grandma eat first, saying that they are the oldest.

   Next, Ruan Xiuqin went out on behalf of the old Zhang family, and directly faced Liu Yi, Mi Pei and grandpa and grandma, and there was a war of words.

   After waiting for a while, Zhang Xuan was speechless. He picked up his chopsticks and reached for the tofu fish.

   Seeing this, the few people who were bustling just now fell silent for an instant, watching his movements together.

  Zhang Xuan ignored it, picked up a piece of fish, and then put it in the rice bowl under the watchful eyes of the elders, "Happy New Year, wife, with more than every year."

  Mijian smiled in a blue manner, and helped him smooth things over, "Mom, grandpa, grandma, and parents are all family members, so don't be too polite. Eat quickly, or the food will be cold."

   As he said that, Mi Jian thoughtfully picked up a chopstick dish for each of the 5 elders, and carefully picked out different dishes according to each person's different tastes.

  Youmi saw such smoothness, the parents on both sides were very satisfied, and the atmosphere on the table exploded instantly.

  This New Year's Eve, Zhang Xuan was completely exiled to the three parents except for the occasional food for his grandparents, taking care of Mi Jian the whole time.

  Seeing this, Ruan Xiuqin was both gratified and saddened at the same time, the cub that had been raised with care for decades was now flying. Now it's just a meeting in front of me, and it's like this. In the future, Shuangling, Wenhui, Seagate, and Lilith, she probably won't see her a few times a year as a mother.

  Different from Ruan Xiuqin's complex mood, Liu Yi and Mi Pei are completely happy. The better Zhang Xuan treats his daughter and the more he loves his daughter, the happier the couple will be.

  There were only two men on the table. In order to please his father-in-law, Zhang Xuan first drank half a bottle of red wine with Mi Pei, and then drank half a glass of Moutai before passing out.

  Before he went to bed, he was still thinking: Shuang Ling is a glass of wine, and he is a glass of baijiu, God is amazing!

   This sleep was very comfortable. When he woke up again, Mi Jian was leaning against the bedside and reading a book, and he was still reading "the world".

  Hearing some movement, Mi Jian looked over with a smile in his eyes: "Wake up, happy new year."

  Zhang Xuan hummed in a daze, but his eyes fell on her protruding belly.

  Mi Jian asked, "Does your head still hurt?"

   "Almost ready."

  Zhang Xuan shook his head, moved over and leaned over to listen to his stomach for a while, and asked, "Do you feel like he kicked you in the stomach?"

  Mi Jian smiled and shook his head: "No, maybe it's like me, it's quieter."

  Zhang Xuan muttered: "It's better to be like me in this respect, otherwise it will be too disadvantageous to be like you."

  Mi Jian looked at him speechlessly for a while, and then reminded: "Your phone has been vibrating since last night. There should be many people looking for you, so go and have a look."

  Zhang Xuan looked at the head of the bed: "Where is the phone?"

  Mi Jian said: "I put it in the study for you, and it's charging."

  The old man understood why she did this almost immediately, that is, to avoid suspicion.

  He sat up cheekily, yawned and said, "Hey, it's not good for people to be too successful, too many people pay New Year's greetings."

   Saying this, he put on his clothes and went out.

  Mi Jian watched him quietly the whole time, and continued reading until the person disappeared.

   Taking the phone, Zhang Xuan was immediately dazed by the flood of text messages and exploding missed calls.

   It took a long time to figure it out.

  Seagate sent a text message back: Ouch, you are in Cao Ying and your heart is in Han. Be careful that the bamboo basket will be empty.

  Zhang Xuan typing: Happy New Year.

  Seagate: Automatic reply, I am fast asleep, happy new year, uncle.

  Zhang Xuan: Don’t call me uncle, call me old.

  Seagate: Automatic reply, sorry, I refer to men who marry wives and have children as uncles.

  Zhang Xuan: I am only 24 years old this year.

  Seagate: Automatic reply, although you are only 24 years old, you have made great achievements. The girl who slept all over the country at a young age is a winner in life, and those uncles envy you.

  Zhang Xuan: Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, give me a good start, and don’t hate me like this.

  Seagate: The robot wishes you good health in the new year, earn a lot of money, write more masterpieces, and sleep with more beautiful girls.

  Zhang Xuan: If you are here, I will come here.

   Seagate did not reply.

  Zhang Xuan: You are the first person I contact in the new year. It is only complete when there is a beginning and an end. Squeak.

  Seagate: Squeak! I didn't sleep all night, Mi Jian husband, don't look for me anymore, go find other ladies.

  Zhang Xuan looked at the text message in a daze, and later turned to Tao Ge's text message, and asked: Did you stay up all night last night?

   Tao Ge: Have you contacted Seagate?

  Zhang Xuan: Contacted, she said she was going to sleep.

  A minute later, Tao Ge replied: I just went to see it, but her phone was turned off and she was sleeping.

  Zhang Xuan: What did you do last night, how did you stay up all night?

  Tao Ge: Drinking, watching movies, and the two of us singing songs to each other for an hour.

  Zhang Xuan was surprised: Does she sing well?

  Tao Ge: My sister didn't expect that her singing is not inferior to those amateur singers at all, it's very nice.

   Without waiting for his reply, Tao Ge sent another text message: By the way, she had a long phone call with her family last night, and then she was in a bad mood.

  Zhang Xuan rubbed his brows and asked worriedly: Do you know what it is?

  Tao Ge: Because it’s Chinese New Year, I don’t want to spoil the fun, so I didn’t ask the specific sister, but you can guess some if you think about it.

   Then Tao Ge continued to send text messages: However, when we were drinking, Seagate revealed that her parents would come to Dunhuang after the next year.

  Zhang Xuan asked: About when?

  Tao Ge: It is estimated to be around March to April.

  Zhang Xuan thought for a while: The plan can't keep up with the changes, so I'll come over in early April, and you can keep an eye on it for me, and let me know in advance if there is any situation.

  Tao Ge: Even if you still have a conscience, my sister also means the same.

  First text messaged about Seagate, then simply called and talked for a long time about various business situations. By the end of the call, the phone was already too hot.

  Although his emotions were affected by Seagate, he changed the battery and called Lao Du's family, Wenhui, and Lilith.

  When the call came to Dong Ziyu, she answered it immediately this time.

  As soon as she connected, she explained: "I fell asleep yesterday and didn't hear the phone ringing."

  Zhang Xuandao: "I saw the text message you sent later, happy new year!"

"Happy New Year!"

  Dong Ziyu asked: "Are you in your hometown? Or in the capital?"

   Sure enough, there is no fool, Zhang Xuan said truthfully: "In the capital, where are you?"

  Dong Ziyu turned on the voice, "Listen."

  Zhang Xuan said: "Many people, many children shouting."

  Dong Ziyu smiled and said: "My parents and my sister's family have come to Sichuan to celebrate the New Year. Including my brother's children, there are quite a lot of children."

   Just as he was listening to Dong Ziyu with relish, he suddenly hung up the phone.

  Dong Ziyu replied later: I suddenly have something urgent to do, so I won’t talk for now, I will call you later.

  Zhang Xuan pondered for a moment while facing the phone, and replied: OK.

  ps: The new book has been released, big guys remember to bookmark and read it later, please!
