Chi Lidong didn't want to take care of Jiang Li's affairs too much, and based on what he knew about Jiang Li before, this girl studied well and had no problems with her personal ability, but she was not bad in all aspects, she was somewhat arrogant, so she was beaten once like this , not a bad thing.

Madam Chi misunderstood his embarrassment, and understood: "If it's inconvenient, then forget it."

She opened the presents brought by the two sisters of the Jiang family. In addition to a few boxes of delicately packaged Tianjin local specialties, there was also a women's handbag, which had already been tagged.

Chi Lidong asked: "How much is this bag?"

Mrs. Chi: "More than 1."

It's not too expensive, but now that the two companies have no business cooperation, this New Year's gift seems very heavy.

Chi's mother repacked the bag and said, "Do you think Jiang Qi wanted you to help Jiang Li, so I'm sorry to say so? She didn't see me a few times, so she gave me such an expensive gift."

Chi Lidong felt that Jiang Qi had this intention, and said, "It's also possible."

Madam Chi was very sorry, and said: "Since we can't help, let's return the gift and buy something similar for the Lantern Festival. If you can't take care of it, then I will go to Tianjin."

Chi Lidong thought for a while, in the end it wasn't a big deal, and there was no need for his mother to worry about it, so he said, "Don't be so troublesome, I'd better wait until the New Year is over and I won't be busy, I'll ask Wang Qi first."

In the afternoon, the auntie, the helper at home, went back to celebrate the New Year. Once she left, there were only mother and child left in the house.

The sky was overcast, it was very cold outside, and the north wind was biting.

Chi Lidong stepped on a ladder to paste Spring Festival couplets outside the main gate and at several gates in the courtyard. Mrs. Chi stood below and handed him the couplets and paste. His nose was red from the cold.

It was quiet all around, and the neighbor's children were laughing and making noise from afar.

After posting the Spring Festival couplets, the two of them went home. The dumpling fillings were prepared early in the morning. Chi Lidong rolled out the skins, and Mrs. Chi made the dumplings. It has been like this every year for more than ten years.Chi Lidong's skin rolling technique is very good.

After the wrapping was finished, it was almost dark, Madam Chi went to cook, fried three dishes and one soup, and mixed a cooked food as a cold dish.

After the dumplings were put into the pot, the first bowl was served and placed in front of Mr. Chi's portrait. Chi Lidong kowtowed to his father, looked up into his father's eyes, and said a few words to him silently in his heart.

Mrs. Chi said: "He already knows, come and eat quickly, the food will be cold in a while."

Chi Lidong went to open a bottle of red wine and drank some with his mother.

There was a big party with laughter and laughter on TV, and the house was decorated with lanterns and festoons to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new.

It's just that on the reunion dinner table of the New Year's Eve dinner, there has been no reunion in more than ten years.

Mrs. Chi didn't stay up late, and she couldn't bear it before ten o'clock, so she was driven to bed by Chi Lidong.

Chi Lidong watched the Spring Festival Gala until midnight and sent a New Year greeting message to Professor Xia.The professor replied to him not long after, expressing his gratitude and sending him New Year's wishes.

He finished reading, waited for a while, and fell asleep.

He woke up very early in the morning, before six o'clock, when there was the sound of cannons outside, he got up.

There are many messages of blessings sent in the middle of the night on the mobile phone, from relatives, friends and business partners from all walks of life.

There is no Xia Yue.

When Chi Lidong was brushing his teeth, he regretted it a little. He should have called Xia Yue last night, so why be so angry.

Madam Chi came downstairs after washing and dressing up. She was wearing a wine-red velvet cheongsam, a large black wool shawl, and her hair was pulled up nicely.

When she reached the last few steps, Chi Lidong was standing at the bottom, with one hand behind his back and the other outstretched, leaning slightly.She put her hand on her son's and walked down slowly.

Chi Lidong said: "Miss Ren, happy new year."

Mrs. Chi was overjoyed, she tugged at the non-existent skirt and said, "Happy New Year."

Just as the dumplings were about to be cooked, the doorbell rang.

It's only 06:30, who came to pay New Year's greetings so early?

Mrs. Chi wanted to go out to open the door, Chi Lidong said: "I'll go, it's windy at the door."

Xia Yue held Nian Nian outside the door.

Through the iron gate, Nian Nian loudly said: "Mommy! Happy New Year!"

Chi Lidong hurriedly opened the door, Nian Nian threw himself on Xia Yue from his arms, and he took the villain over and hugged him.

Niannian hugged his neck and gave him a big kiss.He was still a little dizzy.

It was very cold outside, Xia Yue put on the hood of the down jacket on his head, the big fur edge covered his eyes a little bit, he opened it a little, with a smile in his eyes and face, and said: "Happy New Year."

Chi Lidong shifted Niannian's weight to one arm, and the free arm wrapped around Xia Yue's waist, and hugged him vigorously.

At this moment, he suddenly figured out that no matter what Xia Yue decides, he can accept it.

Madam Chi didn't expect Xia Yue to come so early, of course she was very happy.

As soon as I entered the door every year, I kowtowed to her in a dignified manner, and said with a small voice: "Grandma, Happy New Year."

Madam Chi was so happy that she almost cried, she hugged Nian Nian on the sofa, peeled the candy for him, and gave him the red envelopes that she had prepared earlier, quite a lot, but not too exaggerated.

Seeing that Xia Yue nodded, he only accepted it every year.

They came here right after getting up, and they haven't had breakfast yet.

Chi Lidong went to cook dumplings for three, one, and four people. They sat around the round dining table and ate the first meal of the New Year together.
