Rebirth: Good girls should not be let down, bad girls should not be wasted
Chapter 596 New Year's Eve Dinner
After they changed their clothes, they took the elevator downstairs, and Li Mubai knocked on the door of Qin Jianguo's house.
"Come on, Uncle Qin, let's go downstairs to set off firecrackers, and then we'll go upstairs to have the New Year's Eve dinner."
Qin Jianguo shook his head and said:
"I'm not going."
When he first returned to Chenyang, Qin Jianguo went upstairs to eat once, and never came up again after that.
It was useless for Li Mubai and Tian Manmei to invite him.
This is Qin Jianguo's professional ethics.
As an employee, what's the point of going to the boss's house for dinner every day?
Li Mubai took Qin Jianguo's arm and said:
"Let's have a New Year's Eve dinner together today. If Xiaoyun knew about this, she would think I treated you unfairly."
Seeing that Qin Jianguo still looked unmoved, Li Mubai felt helpless.
Qin Jianguo mentioned to himself that his family consists of only female members, so he always has to avoid suspicion.
I even moved the little rich woman out, and you're not giving me face.
Today is New Year's Day, and Li Mubai feels really bad for leaving Qin Jianguo alone at home.
Tian Manmei said in a dissatisfied tone:
"Old Qin, please hurry up. If you don't go up, I will bring the New Year's Eve dinner to your house."
After spending a long time together, Qin Jianguo also knew the temper of Tian Manmei, a woman from Northeast China.
The most polite words are those said in an impolite tone.
If you refuse, you might really offend the other person.
Qin Jianguo nodded helplessly and said:
"Okay, okay, I'll put on a coat."
Li Mubai felt that his mother's words were more effective than his own, and she subdued Qin Jianguo with just one sentence.
Several people moved a large box of fireworks and firecrackers to the open space in the community.
Setting off the fireworks is Emily's favorite part.
The feeling of lighting the fireworks with your own hands is just different. Emily set them off in one go and enjoyed it very much.
With cheers, bunches of fireworks soared into the sky, cutting through the night sky and blooming with colorful lights.
After setting off the fireworks, everyone went back upstairs together, and Xiaoya and Emily followed Tian Manmei to the kitchen to cook dumplings.
Li Mubai poured Qin Jianguo a cup of tea and said:
"Uncle Qin, you don't have to be so distant with me. Xiaoyun treats you like a relative, and so do I."
Qin Jianguo picked up the teacup, took a sip and said to Li Mubai:
"I have to admit that you are excellent now. I think you are worthy of our eldest lady, except that you are too fickle."
During the New Year, Qin Jianguo also picked up the nice things to talk about.
In the past six months since returning to China, as Qin Jianguo got to know Li Mubai better, he now roughly knew what great things Li Mubai was planning. Qin Jianguo increasingly recognized the young and talented Li Mubai.
Qin Jianguo knew that the eldest lady was deeply in love with Li Mubai, and he was happy that the lovers would finally get married.
It was the fact that Li Mubai was too fickle that made Qin Jianguo feel helpless.
Putting aside his stance, Qin Jianguo thought it was normal.
Li Mubai is young, talented and rich, so it is normal for him to have many women.
But everyone has their own stance, and Qin Jianguo definitely stands on the side of his own eldest daughter.
Li Mubai chuckled and said:
"Xiao Yun and I will be together sooner or later. Uncle Qin, please stop telling tales about Xiao Yun and destroying our relationship."
Qin Jianguo said with a dark face:
"Don't talk nonsense. What do you mean by snitching? It's just that the young lady cares about you and asked me about your situation."
Li Mubai moved to Qin Jianguo's side and said with a smile:
"Even if you tell tales, it won't prevent us from being together. When we have children in the future, they will still need you, Uncle Qin, to take care of them."
In fact, Li Mubai didn't think there was anything wrong with letting the rich lady slowly learn some things through Qin Jianguo. It could also be regarded as a process of slowly desensitizing the rich lady.
Qin Jianguo rolled his eyes at Li Mubai and said:
"Tsk, tell it to your mother later."
Qin Jianguo knew that Li Mubai was filial and cared a lot about Tian Manmei's feelings.
He also kept his word and helped Li Mubai hide from Tian Manmei the fact that he had many girlfriends.
I really don’t know how Li Mubai will explain so many things about his girlfriend to Tian Manmei in the future.
Li Mubai said arrogantly:
"My mother can still control me!"
"Dinner is ready, come and eat."
Tian Manmei invited Qin Jianguo and Li Mubai to dinner.
The steaming dumplings were served on the table, along with eight dishes, four cold and four hot, and that was Li Mubai's family's New Year's Eve dinner.
This was also what Li Mubai and Tian Manmei had discussed before.
Not only is it troublesome to make too much, but Tian Manmei can't bear to throw away the leftover vegetables as she has to eat them for the next meal.
Although the family's conditions have improved, Tian Manmei still can't change her frugal habits.
Li Mubai did not force Tian Manmei to change her lifestyle habits. He mentioned the idea of hiring a nanny to Tian Manmei, but Tian Manmei felt it was unnecessary, so Li Mubai did not mention it again.
Li Mubai knew very well that to make Tian Manmei feel happy, it was not just about spending more money on her. Tian Manmei could do whatever she wanted.
With the sound of fireworks and firecrackers outside the window and the BGM of the Spring Festival Gala, everyone enjoyed the New Year's Eve dinner.
Tian Manmei took out a bottle of Moutai and poured a glass for Qin Jianguo, saying enthusiastically:
"Lao Qin, come and have a drink."
Qin Jianguo never drinks at work, and today is the New Year, so he has no reason to refuse. He took the glass with both hands and said:
"Okay, thank you!"
Tian Manmei poured herself a glass and said:
"Don't be polite, it's like being at home. What do you want to drink, son?"
Since Tian Manmei can also drink some white wine, she can drink with Qin Jianguo.
In his eyes, Li Mubai and the others were still children, so they could drink whatever they wanted.
Li Mu opened a bottle of red wine and said:
"Let me drink some of this."
Emily and Xiaoya also expressed their desire to drink red wine.
In his previous life, Li Mubai had a pound of liquor for social occasions, but Li Mubai really didn't like drinking liquor.
Drinking red wine is also to liven up the New Year.
Several people raised their glasses and clinked them together and said:
"Happy New Year!"
Li Mubai found a coin in the first dumpling he ate, which made him feel like he was destined to be a god. He smiled exaggeratedly and showed off to them.
Xiaoya smiled and said nothing.
With a sound of "crunch", Qin Jianguo bit the coin and grimaced in pain.
When Qin Jianguo saw that Li Mubai had eaten the coin in the dumpling, he thought there were no more coins left and was not careful when eating.
Li Mubai smiled and said:
"Uncle Qin, you got some too. You will definitely make a fortune next year."
Qin Jianguo never expected that there would be so many coins wrapped in the dumplings for the New Year's Eve dinner. The custom of the Li family is so special.
Tian Manmei and Xiaoya also ate the coins.
But Emily seemed to be insulated from the coins. Everyone else got some, but she didn't.
This made Emily feel that God didn't seem to favor her that much.
Could it be that I always get stuck in God's bug and make God angry?
Tian Manmei was also wondering, there were eight coins in the dumplings, why couldn't Emily eat any?
Tian Manmei found a dumpling with a coin in it on her plate and quietly passed it to Emily.
This foreign kid is a bit stubborn. Don’t eat too much this year.
Everyone was having a lively meal when Tian Manmei's phone rang.
Seeing that it was Li Mubai's fourth uncle calling, Tian Manmei chatted with him for a while.
After hanging up the phone, Tian Manmei said to Li Mubai:
"I'm going to Sanya to visit your grandma in a few days. Do you want to go?"
Although Li Mubai's grandmother's condition improved after being taken to Sanya, the old lady is old and her physical condition is not very optimistic.
During the Chinese New Year, Tian Manmei did not say these things at the dinner table. She just said that she would go to Sanya to visit her elderly parents after the New Year.
Li Mubai thought about the arrangements after the New Year and said:
"I have a lot of things to do after the New Year, so I won't be busy waiting."
After the New Year, Li Mubai really couldn't spare the time. He had already arranged for his grandmother's medical care and life, so it didn't matter much whether he went or not.
Li Mubai was a little worried about letting Tian Manmei go alone. After thinking about it, he turned to Qin Jianguo and said:
"Uncle Qin, please accompany my mother for a walk."
Qin Jianguo nodded and said:
"it is good."
These are all within the scope of work, and Qin Jianguo has no reason not to agree.
After the New Year’s Eve dinner, Qin Jianguo left and went downstairs despite being tried to stay.
Li Mubai went out to see Qin Jianguo off. While waiting for the elevator, Li Mubai asked Qin Jianguo:
"Uncle Qin, are you on my side or on the side of the Second Wife?"
The second wife has no bottom line. She has even set her sights on her own mother.
Li Mubai was afraid that he would offend the second wife again one day.
If Qin Jianguo suddenly turns against me, I won’t have anywhere to cry.
Although Li Mubai felt that Qin Jianguo would not be so shameless, Li Mubai was still used to putting things out in the open.
Qin Jianguo was stunned by Li Mubai's question and didn't know how to answer.
Li Mubai has a conflict with the second wife, but the conflict has not yet escalated.
In fact, Qin Jianguo also doesn't like the second wife.
But she had followed the little rich woman's father for most of her life, and for the sake of the little rich woman's father, she couldn't go against the second wife.
The elevator came, but Qin Jianguo didn't get in. He didn't know how to answer Li Mubai.
Li Mubai didn't rush Qin Jianguo to answer. He pulled Qin Jianguo into the elevator, pressed the floor button, and went downstairs with him.
The two didn't speak in the elevator.
After the elevator stopped, Li Mubai silently accompanied Qin Jianguo to the door of his home.
Silence also represents Qin Jianguo's attitude.
If Qin Jianguo is really in trouble, even if Qin Jianguo is very useful, he will have to make other plans.
Qin Jianguo arrived at the door and said:
"I stand on the side of the eldest lady."
Li Mubai looked at Qin Jianguo and smiled.
Li Mubai understood what Qin Jianguo meant.
The main reason why he could come to work for me was because of the rich woman.
If I could marry the wealthy woman, there would be no contradictions or conflicts, and she could even stand on my side with confidence.
If I can't get along with the little rich woman, then there's nothing to talk about.
The rich young woman is now on his side, and Qin Jianguo at least will not stand on the side of the second wife to deal with himself and his mother.
What Qin Jianguo meant was that he could trust him now.
Li Mubai felt relieved that Qin Jianguo could give such an answer.
"Have a good rest, Uncle Qin. I'll go to Sanya with my mother in two days. I'll go back first."
