After Song Yaoyao finished speaking, Song's father and Mrs. Song did not speak. They just looked at the thing in front of them in silence.

She regretted that she said this at this time. It was supposed to be a joyful atmosphere of family reunion, but she suddenly said it like she was missing a root. It was hard to take it back. Now she can no longer take it back.

After a long while, Song's father said: "In five years, I will be fifty years old, and your mother will be fifty-three years old. Do you want us to work hard for most of our lives?"

Song Yaoyao tried to act coquettish and get through: "Oh no, you can hire professionals to manage the company's affairs. I will take care of it and won't let you worry too much. Didn't you say before that you would go everywhere with your mother after I take over?

Do you want to play? You can go when the time comes."

"Dad, Mom, just promise me and trust me, okay?"

The two looked at each other and frowned.

"Okay, I'm just going to mention it today. The details haven't been decided yet. We'll tell you when we decide. From now on, we won't talk about this. We will just celebrate New Year once a year and make dumplings."

"You decide for yourself. After all, you have grown up. I believe you have your own ability to judge." In the end, Father Song could only say.

Song Yaoyao nodded fiercely: "Okay."

She took the initiative to put the dumpling wrappers into Mrs. Song's hands, dug out the fillings for her as if she were attentive, and looked at Mrs. Song eagerly.

Mrs. Song didn't say anything else and let him go.

Song Yaoyao breathed a sigh of relief.

After the dumplings were wrapped, Song Yaoyao went upstairs to his room, found a few books, and took out everything inside.

Those were the peripherals she bought when Chen Jinye first debuted. In order to increase sales, she bought hundreds of magazines with Chen Jinye on the cover, and then slowly distributed them to people who were chasing Chen Jinye at the time.

And these are very precious, including many posters related to Chen Jinye's first time, some photos and letters.

She packed everything into a box and moved it downstairs and put it in the trunk of the car. She planned to return it to Chen Jinye later and see what he did with it.

After finishing all these, it was already time to finish the meal. The dumplings made by Mrs. Song were placed on the plate like gold ingots. Each one had a thin skin and thick filling. It was full of filling and delicious in one bite.

Among the dumplings with even heads and good-looking shapes, you can see at a glance the strange-shaped dumpling she made, which even she didn't want to eat.

Just as he was about to take action, the doorbell suddenly rang.

It was not yet time for New Year greetings, so she was a little curious about who was coming, so she raised her head and stared in the direction of the door.

The aunt opened the door, and a boy wearing a khaki down jacket, black sweatpants, and seven-figure sneakers appeared in her sight. Behind him was a girl wearing a black coat and white pants.

Song Yaoyao's expressionless face suddenly wrinkled, feeling a little disgusted and a little surprised.

"Auntie, uncle, we're late." A male voice spoke.

Song Yaoyao looked at Mrs. Song and saw that her expression did not change, so her disgusted expression subsided.

The people who came were her aunt's children, one named Cheng Zhi and the other Cheng Wang.

Under the influence of Mrs. Song, Song Yaoyao has not been cold to these two people since he was a child.

When she was born, Cheng Zhi was already six years old and Cheng Wang was two years old. Her memory before the age of three was unclear, but after the age of three, she remembered Menqing. Every time Cheng Zhi came to her house to play with her mother, she would

Bully her for not being able to speak, bully her hard.

She believes that human nature is inherently evil because of these two siblings.

The most profound impression on Song Yaoyao was at her birthday party. Mrs. Song bought her a beautiful little skirt, which she wore to play in the bedroom. When Cheng Zhi arrived, she "accidentally" cut her skirt.

Hole.

From then on, Song Yaoyao always cried every time Cheng Zhi came to her house.

Song Yaoyao poked the dumplings, a little absent-mindedly. She didn't know why the two siblings suddenly came to her house on New Year's Eve this year, and it was such a coincidence.

"Sit down quickly when you're here. The food has just been cooked. Let's try the dumplings made by your aunt." Before she could figure it out, Song's father took the initiative to invite them to sit down.

Song Yaoyao pouted, feeling uncomfortable for a moment.

Her mother had already told her about her aunt and her father's twenties and thirties as a joke. Mrs. Song let it go, but she still had a grudge in her heart.

She curled her lips and glanced at Song's father, trying to convey something with her eyes, but Song's father didn't receive the signal. Just as he was winking, Cheng Zhi walked over and sat in the empty seat next to her.

Cheng Zhi took out a small packaging box from his LV bag and handed it to her, saying, "Yao Yao, I bought you a gift when I was on a business trip some time ago. See if you like it."

Song Yaoyao didn't really want to pick it up. After picking it up, she had to give one back out of politeness. Thinking about choosing a gift for Cheng Zhi was enough to give her a headache.

Everyone at the table looked at them. After much deliberation, she reached out to take it. After thanking her, she put it aside without looking at it.

The memory of her childhood was so profound that even Cheng Zhi's good deeds now could not change her impression of her.

"Where's your mother? Why didn't you come?" Mrs. Song spoke up to resolve the embarrassment.

Cheng Zhi said obediently: "My mother returns to grandma's house and will come over after the new year."

Song Yaoyao lowered his head to eat and didn't want to speak for a moment.

She knew clearly that the person her mother didn't want to hear the most was her grandma, but Cheng Zhi could offend the whole family with just one light word.

She picked up a small meatball, put it into a bowl, and said to Mrs. Song: "Mom, I'm hungry, can I eat first?"

Mrs. Song followed her and pushed the dumpling plate toward her, "Eat it. After eating, your dad said he would take us to the suburbs to set off fireworks."

Song Yaoyao's face suddenly brightened up, and the reunion dinner tasted much better.

Halfway through the meal, Song Yaoyao realized that Cheng Zhi and Cheng Wang were called over by Mrs. Song herself, and it was said that her mother was also invited.

The reason for inviting them over was related to a funeral that Mrs. Song attended on the 28th of the twelfth lunar month.

The person who passed away was a friend she had known when she was young. He died very suddenly. He was playing on the golf course one day and disappeared the next day.

He died at night, the cause of death was myocardial infarction, and he was already dead when he was found.

Even until the funeral was over, Mrs. Song could not believe that her old friend had passed away.

That day, Mrs. Song suddenly understood what it means to be in the face of life and death, and all grievances and grievances are not counted as grievances.

So this time she took the initiative to invite the three of them.

The impatience on Song Yaoyao's face had completely disappeared, and the eyes he looked at Cheng Zhi and Cheng Wang were much calmer.

After dinner, a group of them drove to the suburbs to set off fireworks.

While in the car, Song Yaoyao's cell phone kept ringing with New Year greeting messages and WeChat messages from someone. She took the trouble to take them out to reply and then put them back every time.
