Chapter 289: New Year's greeting

Chen Zhaojun took a seven-day holiday during the Spring Festival, and together with Zhang Guimei, who accompanied them in Wanning, boarded a plane northbound with Zhang Zhaojun, Chen Zhaoguang and Zhang Guimei, who accompanied them to the northbound with two girls, Xue Bing and Wu Fengyao.

Xue Bing is from Hong Kong. Although there is a strong New Year atmosphere in Hong Kong, Xue Bing's parents often have the busiest time of the year during the Spring Festival and have no time to celebrate the festival. So even if she goes home, she can only celebrate the Spring Festival alone, which is meaningless. Before that, Xue Bing spent several years studying in Europe every Spring Festival, and in Europe, a group of Chinese people gathered together cannot be called the New Year. Therefore, Xue Bing, who has not experienced the taste of the Spring Festival for a long time, really wants to feel the lively festive atmosphere during the New Year. Therefore, she applied to Zhang Guimei early to celebrate the New Year together to experience the long-lost New Year atmosphere and the family New Year atmosphere that has almost never appeared, and by the way, she can appreciate the difference between the Spring Festival in mainland China and the Spring Festival in Hong Kong.

Wu Fengyao had no relatives and had no place to go. At Zhang Guimei's kind invitation, she had to go to the Chen family to celebrate this Spring Festival together.

Zhang Guimei likes these two girls very much, so she is naturally happy to let them go back to Beijing for the New Year together. In her opinion, when the family celebrates the New Year, the more people, the better, and the more lively the New Year the more it is. In Zhang Guimei's opinion, these two girls are very well-behaved, even if they are accompanying them as friends to spend a lively New Year! Moreover, the family of the General Staff is big enough to have no place to live. Take the two girls back and let everyone choose to see which one is more suitable to be the daughter-in-law of the youngest son of the Chen family. Therefore, in this regard, it is enough for Zhang Guimei to make a complete idea alone, and Chen Zhaojun cannot put any words in it.

Chen Zhaojun was quite helpless about the two girls going home for the New Year together. After all, there was an old mother in between, and it was useless to say anything he said. In fact, Chen Zhaojun agreed with the two girls going home for the New Year together to add a little more lively atmosphere of the New Year. However, he was quite awkward to Zhang Guimei's idea. This mother treated both girls as prospective daughters-in-law, and didn't know what treatment she would have after she went back. I just hope that after my mother went back, she would not make random matches and not express some misunderstandings that made others misunderstand. She would be content to live such a relaxed, happy and happy New Year of the League.

In addition to the addition of two girls Xue Bing and Wu Fengyao, the Chen family has had a different Spring Festival this year, at least in terms of the number of people.

Chen Zhaojun's sister-in-law Li Aihong has been rated as one of the most well-reputed sketch actors during the Spring Festival for several consecutive years, and is quite famous all over the country. Before the Spring Festival, many people were speculating whether she would go to the Spring Festival Gala again this year. The results of this year will definitely disappoint the audience. They have been on the Spring Festival Gala every year for several consecutive years, resulting in no time to reunite with their family. In Li Aihong's opinion, it is indeed a very regrettable thing. So, after some consideration, she decided not to go to the Spring Festival Gala again this year and accompany her family to have a reunion year.

The disappointment of audiences across the country does not mean that everyone is disappointed. Being able to have a reunion dinner together is what the Chen family most hopes to see. Li Aihong is willing to retreat and rest for a while in this prosperous time, and her measurement is really great. And in the Chen family, the happiest thing is Chen Lili, because since her birth, her mother has not really had a New Year's Eve New Year's Eve New Year's Eve New Year's Eve New Year's Eve New Year's Eve New Year's Eve New Year's Eve New Year's Eve New Year's Eve dinner with her every time she ate her own bowl and watched her mother look forward to her coming back quickly. Every time, her mother is busy until after midnight. This year, Chen Lili finally hopes that she can have a New Year's Eve dinner with her mother and watch others perform on the Spring Festival Gala.

Because of Li Aihong, the Chen family finally achieved a real reunion this year. For the New Year’s Eve dinner this year, the family sat around the big table and happily ate this meal that symbolized reunion.

Regarding this family atmosphere, Chen Zhaojun's meal was filled with a warm smile from beginning to end. He liked to see this scene. No matter who picked up food for whom, it contained the taste of family affection. Not only Chen Zhaojun, but also two girls Xue Bing and Wu Fengyao, were moved by this strong family atmosphere. They all expressed their affection for Zhang Guimei that they would try to celebrate the New Year with everyone in the future.

There were laughter constantly coming from the dinner table, and there was constantly joking about another one. Almost everyone hoped that time could be frozen at this moment and let themselves feel the atmosphere for a while. Just like a sentence Chen Lili said in the middle, causing a little ripples in her heart. She said a joke after Li Aihong picked up a chicken leg for her: "Mom! If you can't spend the Spring Festival with us every year in the future, can you not eat so quickly? Let's eat longer! Only this time will I remember it clearly in the future, okay?"

Chen Lili's words moved everyone at the dinner table, and Li Aihong was almost moved to tears, so she could only answer repeatedly!

So, the Chen family had this New Year’s Eve dinner for a long time!

The Chen family has a traditional custom for the New Year, which is to kowtow to the two elders in the family to receive red envelopes after the New Year’s Eve dinner. Moreover, there is a strict order for kowtow to receive red envelopes. At home, there are children first, then grandchildren, granddaughter, and finally daughter-in-law. The order cannot be messed up at all, and the procedures in between are very strict.

Chen Zhaojun likes the most about kowtowing to his parents during the New Year. Perhaps it was the excitement of receiving New Year’s money in childhood that he had been bringing him. After he came back to life, Chen Zhaojun, who once again felt this feeling, naturally did not want to let go of every moment of this moment. In his opinion, kowtowing to receive New Year’s money is one of the most memorable things, and it is also the happiest and happiest moment of every New Year. When he was an assistant to the mayor in FJ Province, it was because he talked to his second brother about kowtowing to receive red envelopes during the New Year that Chen Zhaojun was so moved that he couldn't help crying, which led to his second brother's injury in the end. In short, compared to the New Year’s Eve dinner, Chen Zhaojun hoped that the moment of kowtowing to receive red envelopes could be extended. Just as Chen Lili said before, it took a longer time to let him feel the warmth of this.

The Chen family kowtowed and received red envelopes in an orderly manner. First, the three brothers of the Chen family, then Chen Lili, and finally Li Aihong, He Jianling and others kowtowed in front of the two old men Chen Weixiong and Zhang Guimei in order, and then got the symbolic red envelopes and New Year's message from them.

However, what is different from previous years is that not only Li Aihong has returned, but there are two people who are not suitable for participation in this scene. They are Xue Bing and Wu Fengyao. It’s nothing they come to the Chen family to celebrate the New Year together. As Zhang Guimei understands, the more lively the better. However, the custom of kowtowing to receive red envelopes can only be carried out by a real family.

Wu Fengyao knew a little bit about the Spring Festival custom of kowtowing and receiving red envelopes, but she was just watching quietly. But Xue Bing, who was also watching next to her, couldn't understand. In this scene, no one dared to speak, and no one told her before that the silent and serious scene made her at a loss. This is not counting, the key is that she misunderstood because of this. In the past, when she was in Hong Kong, she could also receive New Year's money, including father's, uncles, aunts, etc., which were all given to the younger generations by the elders. It was a kind of care and blessing for the younger generation, but there was no kowtow procedure. Now, in her opinion, kowtow should be a kind of respect and blessing for the younger generations, right?

No one could have thought that Xue Bing would understand the custom of kowtowing and receiving red envelopes so that no one told her specifically. What others didn't expect was that Xue Bing would do it with "understanding"! After He Jianling, the second sister-in-law, received the red envelope, she pulled Wu Fengyao, who was standing beside her, took the initiative to walk forward, respectfully following the procedures made by the person in front, and knelt down for the two elders.

Xue Bing's actions made Wu Fengyao very anxious. Like Xue Bing, she had no one notified what to do before. According to her understanding, the Chen family kowtowed to receive red envelopes during the New Year should not have anything to do with them, the two outsiders. However, Xue Bing actually pulled her at the end, making her feel that this might have been what Zhang Guimei told Xue Bing in advance, but she didn't have time to tell herself and let Xue Bing tell her. After all, in the whole process, others cannot speak randomly. Moreover, the time when Xue Bing went out was just the moment when all the juniors of the Chen family received the red envelopes, so she had to make Wu Fengyao have an illusion that this was the rule of the Chen family, and that the juniors of the outsiders must follow the last step of the procedure.

Therefore, when Xue Bing knelt down, Wu Fengyao hurriedly walked to the two elders and respectfully knelt down to the two elders according to the usual procedures.

After seeing the two girls kowtow to them, Zhang Guimei realized that because of her negligence, the two girls had misunderstood and actually participated. However, they kowtowed, could she say anything else? What's more, she liked both of them very much, so it was nothing to let them participate in this program. So, after the two girls kowtowed, Zhang Guimei also agreed to the other juniors of the Chen family, just like she did in the Chen family, and took out the red envelopes she had prepared to give them in advance.

Unlike Zhang Guimei's reaction, Chen Weixiong widened his eyes after seeing him, and looked at the two girls kneeling in front of him with an unnaturally. While Zhang Guimei gave the two girls a red envelope, she glared at Chen Zhaojun fiercely. Because according to the procedures, the person who kowtowed the red envelopes now should be the third daughter-in-law of the Chen family. Before, these two girls came to the Chen family and appeared as friends of Chen Zhaojun. Out of politeness, Chen Weixiong treated these two girls as if they were family members. However, being polite is completely different from the family. He had no idea before! The old son is at the age of being a partner, but who is the person and what the situation is, he must tell the old man, right? This is not counting, even if he is present.

The one who came out was Chen Zhaojun's office. If you wanted to give him a surprise, you would understand that if you didn't tell him in advance, you would understand. But now Chen Weixiong received only surprises, but he couldn't be happy at all. After all, there were two people coming out! Judging from Zhang Guimei's happy appearance, it seemed that these two were both his old son's objects. This was amazing! However, now that the New Year is now, I am in such a serious kowtow and receive red envelope program, and I can't say anything. Maybe I really misunderstood something! Therefore, Chen Weixiong could only follow the program to complete the next program. After everything was done before making a decision, otherwise it would be unlucky. I just hope that he misunderstood, otherwise there would be a good old son.

When Chen Zhaojun saw these two girls asking questions without asking, he ran out rashly. He was so anxious that he almost started to scream. Unfortunately, he didn't know whether it was his reaction too slow or the two girls' reaction too fast. Before he could scream, Wu Fengyao had already knelt down. When he was about to go up and pull them up, Zhang Guimei had already made a speech. He didn't know what to do for a while. He really couldn't figure out what the two girls were thinking about. Xue Bing was a little better. She might not know the customs, but Wu Fengyao was

Running forward with nothing? Isn’t this sincerely causing trouble for yourself? What’s more, even if Xue Bing doesn’t know, you can ask! After seeing the two of them receiving the red envelopes, Chen Zhaojun felt agitation in his heart and looked at Chen Weixiong carefully, but found that the old man’s angry appearance suddenly became cold from his head to his feet. He knew that his wish had come true, and the procedure for kowtowing the red envelopes was extended a lot because of the participation of the two girls, but he could only stop this year. After this procedure, I still don’t know if the old man would beat him up.
Chapter completed!
