"In the afternoon, we will go back to the compound for Chinese New Year. You also have the key to the house. You can come to the house to watch the Spring Festival Gala. There are dumplings and wontons in the refrigerator, as well as a few dishes that I have prepared. You can just heat it up when you eat it."

While eating wontons, Chu Qiao instructed her father. It would be strange to see her father as a sinner. He was alone for the New Year. Many people in the family building had to go back to their hometown, and at least half of them should be empty. It will also be less than half, and there is not even a chatter.

"Don't worry, go home, I can handle it alone."

Although Chu Yuanzhi said that, his heart was sour. He had lived for forty-two years, and this was the second time he spent New Year's Eve alone.

The year his mother died of illness, he spent the Spring Festival alone, it was so hard, he would cry when he thinks about it now, but fortunately he went to the countryside in the second year. On the first Spring Festival after he went to the countryside, he and the educated youth It was quite fun when they were together.

The second year after he went to the countryside, he married Sun Yinxiu, and he did not celebrate the New Year alone after that.

Thinking of spending New Year's Eve alone again, Chu Yuanzhi's nose is sore, but he is not an ignorant person. His daughter is married, and he must go back to her husband's house for the New Year. He can't drag his daughter back and live alone. Just live alone, there are many people in the family building.

Gu Ye also felt that his father-in-law was pitiful, so he said, "Dad, let's go back to the compound with us to celebrate the New Year."

Chu Yuanzhi shook his head vigorously, "No, you have passed yours, I have a good life, don't worry about me, I am such an old man."

There is no reason to go to my in-law's house for New Year's Eve, and he is not a poor family. After all, he is also the dignified young master of the Chu family, and he still has this ambition.

Gu Ye didn't persuade him any more, mainly because he felt that it was nothing to celebrate the New Year alone. He remembered that one New Year's Eve, he was still on the battlefield, celebrating the New Year with artillery fire. The New Year's Eve dinner consisted of compressed biscuits soaked in water, and a few handfuls of wild vegetables were added. Vitamins, the enemy attacked on the first day of the new year. At that time, some brothers said that if they survived New Year's Eve, they would live another year.

Therefore, as long as it is a peaceful society, a person will be happy during the New Year.

Other people are also cleaning up, and so is Zhang Suqin's house next door. After Dabao and Xiaobao cleaned the glass on the table, he ran out and set off firecrackers with his friends. Once the firecrackers were hung and dismantled, there were hundreds of small cannonballs. Cigarettes, just put one at hand, is the greatest joy for boys.

Dabao and Xiaobao were stuffed with bulging bags, all of them were gun battles, and there were a lot of kicks, which were bought for them by Chu Qiao. Xiaobao played together, and his tone of voice was somewhat flattering, thinking that he could share some gunfights.

"Your aunt is so kind to you, she bought so many gun battles, and also bought two kicks." A child said enviously that he also wanted such a good aunt, and he could exchange his mother for it.

The other children nodded, and they also wanted to exchange their mother for an aunt like Chu Qiao, who could cook delicious food and buy so many gun battles, much better than their mother.

"My aunt is the best in the world!"

Dabao straightened his neck proudly. The envy and jealousy of his friends made him especially enjoy. In the past, he was always bullied and humiliated by the village children in his hometown. My brother, I live with trepidation every day, for fear that I will die of starvation and sickness, and I will not be able to see the sun tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.

Even when Dad was still alive, he and his younger brother were not doing well in their hometown. Dad was not at home all the year round. It was the woman who brought him and his younger brother. Dad sent money home every month, but the money was not spent on him. With my younger brother, that woman is very good at superficial work. When my father came home, that woman was very kind to him and his younger brother. He bought new clothes and delicious food, and spoke softly and softly. It was the happiest time for him and his younger brother.

But Dad's time at home was too short, and the time he and his brother were happy was also very short. As soon as Dad walked away, the woman's face changed. Dabao often wondered, are he and his brother born to that woman?

Even beasts are very good to their children, and if they have a delicious bite, they should leave them to their children, but that woman is not even better than beasts. The dogs in the house are better than they are.

Dabao felt that in that woman's heart, he and his brother were probably enemies, right?

"My aunt is the best!" Xiaobao cried out in a tender voice, interrupting Dabao's bitter memories. He sniffed and looked at his chubby younger brother, and his heart filled with sweetness.

He no longer has to worry about his younger brother's death. Life is sweeter than sugar now. He must listen to Uncle Gu and Auntie's words, be an obedient good child, and supervise his younger brother to be a good child. of.

"Xiaobao, can you give me one or two kicks? Just one will do?" A boy begged greedily, and the other children around him had the same look.

The conditions of the workers in the machine tool factory are okay, but they can only guarantee that they are not hungry. There are no other recreational toys and snacks. Things like two kicks are a waste in the eyes of adults, and naturally they cannot be bought for children. of.

Like Chu Qiao, who is so generous to children, the machine tool factory can't even count a slap.

Xiaobao hesitated for a while, but he was actually reluctant, but remembered that his aunt had said that good things should be shared with his partners, and one should not be too stingy, so he took one and two kicks and handed it to the boy, "Give it to you! "

"thank you!"

The boy was overjoyed and thanked him repeatedly. The other boys also spoke up. Since there are others, can they share one?

Dabao squeezed in and said loudly: "What's the point, let's put it together!"

"Okay, let's put it in the tree hole, but unfortunately it didn't snow, otherwise it would be fun to put it in the snow!"

The children are happier. Playing together means they can put more kicks. Today's happiness is given by Dabao and Xiaobao, and they will be better for Dabao and Xiaobao in the future.

"Go there and put it there, it's empty, there's no wires!"

The older boy has become aware of safety~www.mtlnovel.com~ and led a group of children to the other side of the family building. The place is empty and there are no wires in the sky, so don't worry about accidents.

The children chirped, inserted the second kick into the tree hole, ignited the lead, sparks flew everywhere, and then with a 'chirp', the second kick flew into the sky, and with a crackle, the children screamed happily. Get up, happiness is that simple.

After putting a few two kicks in a row, the children got tired of it and thought of a new way to play. Dabao took out an empty can box from the house, lit the cannonball, and quickly covered it with a canned iron box, and the children dispersed. , and then with a loud bang, the can box bounced high.

(This behavior is very dangerous, do not imitate)

The laughter of the children spread far and wide, and the adults in the corridor smiled knowingly, and did not scold the children for being naughty.

Tongtong walked over timidly, limping, watching everyone play with hot eyes, and wanted to join in several times, but she still dared not. After playing with her, he ignored her when he saw her, and Xiaobao didn't play with her anymore.
