The second update of today has finally been coded. There is a third update next. It will be delivered before eleven o'clock. I'm sorry, I'm not in good condition today and I'm still having some troubles. I'm a little late.

------------

In the blink of an eye, the Spring Festival is here.

The brick factory was on holiday and went to work again on the eighth day of the first lunar month. Uncle and nephew Zhang Sanhuo also returned to their hometown together. Their hometown is Hongkou Town, which is two hours away from Yong'an Town.

Perhaps in some big cities outside, they have become increasingly cold in the Spring Festival, but in mountain villages like Yong'an Town, it is completely different, and every household attaches great importance to the Spring Festival.

During the Chinese New Year, killing New Year pigs, pasting couplets, hanging lanterns, and making all kinds of delicious foods are all essential. During the Spring Festival, almost all families will stir-fry some melon seeds and peanuts and make some candy biscuits.

People in Yong'an pay the most attention to New Year's Eve lunch, which is completely different from other places. People in other places eat New Year's Eve dinner, but people in Yong'an are different. When eating New Year's lunch, this meal will be very rich. If you can serve the dishes, you will get some fresh food, such as chicken, duck, fish, and delicacies, all of them are served. On the New Year's Eve, you will eat the remaining food at noon, which is called surplus every year.

It was New Year's Eve. Although Yang Tianyou had no one at home, he still got up early and cleaned up the house inside and out. Then he took a hoe and paper candles and firecrackers to visit his mother's grave.

We must worship our ancestors before New Year’s lunch, which is also the custom of the people in Yong'an Town.

A piece of fat meat is placed on a plate or bowl. This is called "knife head" and is used to respect ancestors.

In addition, bring a pot of wine, a wine glass, paper money, firecrackers, and then go to the grave.

Yang Tianyou actually often goes to the grave, so there are not many weeds on the grave, but Yang Tianyou carefully put some new soil on it, then lit a stick of incense, lit the paper money, and then set off firecrackers.

After smoking a cigarette, Yang Tianyou poured a glass of wine, sprinkled it in front of the grave, poured another glass of wine again, and drank it by himself. Then he laughed and said, "My mother, you can't drink anyway, so I'll help you drink it. Today is the New Year. I remember you were with me for the New Year two years ago. Since last year, I was alone. Actually, I feel lonely, but I won't tell others... I was having dinner at Niu Wazi's house at noon. In fact, this brother is pretty good. I was having dinner with Yan Ming's house last year, and I ate at Niu Wazi's house this year. During the New Year, I always have to be a little angry.

The atmosphere is enough. The family is too quiet. I am too lazy to buy New Year's goods. It can be considered as a food for hundreds of families... By the way, I have opened a brick factory now and made some money. I have deposited 400,000 yuan. However, I promised that the girl from Qi's family would make five million in four years. It is probably a bit unlucky, but I will work hard. It's only half a year, and it's still early. Don't you often say that human destiny is destined. I have worked hard. As for the result of one, I can't control it. If you can't marry her home, don't blame me. Hehe, come on, I will toast you with a glass. You won't drink, I'll drink it for you..."

Starting at 10 o'clock in the morning, the sound of firecrackers rang one after another in Yong'an Town, crackling and extremely lively.

People in Yong'an Town have the habit of "grabbing the New Year". They all compete to celebrate the New Year first. Once lunch is over, it is the so-called New Year. Whoever celebrates the New Year first will be smooth sailing in the new year.

At 11 o'clock in the afternoon, Yang Tianyou returned home. As soon as he got home, Niu Wazi ran to ask him to have a meal. As soon as he entered the door, Niu Wazi said with some depression: "Brother Tian, ​​hurry up, it's eleven o'clock. If we didn't wait for you, we would have finished the New Year."

Yang Tianyou rolled his eyes and said, "Then you don't have to wait. You go back and eat it, I'll eat instant noodles."

"Tsk, are you so stingy?" Niu Wazi cursed, "If you say you, you won't eat anymore? Ge, hurry up, let's go, my parents are waiting for you!"

Yang Tianyou didn't put on airs anymore. After all, it was the Chinese New Year, and he didn't want to eat instant noodles at home, so he went downstairs with Niu Wazi.

When Yang Tianyou arrived at Niu Wazi's house, he felt that.

lively.

Not bad, it's really lively.

Niu Wazi's family is full of people. Niu Wazi's family is three, Zhu Wazi's family is three, and Niu Wazi's grandfather and parents are nine. With Yang Tianyou, it just happened to form a table.

Liu Yun was the head of the neighboring village, and his social relationship was pretty good. He had wild game, rabbit meat, deer meat, wild boar meat, bamboo chicken, and everything was all there was, and the mat was particularly rich. Today, Niu Wazi's wife Ma Dongmei and his sister-in-law Wang Li cooked. The taste was quite good. The dishes on the table were all full of colors, fragrance and flavor.

As soon as Yang Tianyou arrived, Liu Yun's family greeted him warmly and sat down. Then Niu Wazi and Zhu Wazi carried two plates of firecrackers at the door and let them go, and then started to eat.

Although Yang Tianyou is famous for being rogue and domineering in Yong'an Town, Liu Yun's family has a very good impression of Yang Tianyou. The reason is very simple. Yang Tianyou is loyal and upright, and he is really good to Niu Wazi. For example, when he runs a brick factory, Niu Wazi doesn't do anything, and he has made more than 100,000 yuan in a few months. This is all a waste of money. They can't help but be grateful to Yang Tianyou.

In fact, Yang Tianyou can indeed run a brick factory well without using a Niuwazi. When he first came to him to invest, he treated him as a brother. Although the two often bickered, the relationship was really deep.

Liu Yun first picked up a glass of wine and smiled at Yang Tianyou, "Yang Tianyou, I also watched you grow up. You and Niu Wazi are not brothers, but they are better than brothers. You still take good care of him very much. Don't treat us as outsiders. We also treat you as a family. So the family doesn't speak two words. I also hope that you young people can be more vicious and more fierce, but you must be motivated and do something. Others say that predecessors are not as strong as future generations. I hope you will be more promising than us in the future. Come on, do it!"

Cheers to everyone.

Then Yang Tianyou also toasted the wine, and Niu Wazi and the two brothers also spoke one by one toast the wine. The meal was really harmonious, which made Yang Tianyou feel the warmth of home.

There was nothing wrong in the afternoon. Yang Tianyou, Niu Wazi, Xiang Yanming and the cow dealer Gou Xinghua, the four of them played cards together. Yang Tianyou was not very lucky and lost more than 1,000 yuan. However, this little money was really a drizzle for him, so he didn't feel much distress.

At 7 o'clock in the evening, Xiang Yanming took Yang Tianyou to Taifeng Pavilion. Tonight is a member dinner for the Driver Friends Association. He pays the membership fee every year. By the end of the year, several tables will definitely be arranged. Now there are more than 40 members in the Friends Association. Almost 80% of the drivers in Yong'an Town have joined the meeting. Yang Tianyou and Zhang Shuhai, the two owners of the brick factory, and Hu Gaomeng of the neighborhood committee, are all exceptions and are also special guests.

The Friends Association summarized the work results over the past year and spoke to Yan Ming and Brother Hua separately, which made it quite similar. Yang Tianyou couldn't help laughing and always felt a little uncomfortable. However, he drank a lot of wine as usual, and the dinner was not over 9 o'clock in the evening.

Yang Tianyou is now a celebrity in Yong'an Town, and no one dares to underestimate him, so there are quite a few people who come to toast him. After drinking enough, he is already eighty-sixth of drunkenness.

Xiang Yanming took Yang Tianyou back and drove his Pojili.

Yang Tianyou stopped playing cards when he went back and went home to rest. As soon as he sat on the sofa, Yang Tianyou felt particularly deserted. There was a custom in Yong'an Town. In a word, it was "beggars also had thirty nights", which means that even beggars had to celebrate the New Year at home. On the night of thirty, they were not interested in visiting each other and had to watch the Spring Festival Gala at home.

The Spring Festival Gala is in progress, and Yang Tianyou is no exception. He no longer goes out to go around. He sits on the sofa with a cigarette in his mouth. Yang Tianyou rarely watches TV so seriously.

Time passed by minute by minute, and soon it was twelve o'clock in the evening. On the TV, the bells rang long, but outside the window, there were fireworks flying all over the sky, and the sounds of salutes and firecrackers were shaking. The fireworks dyed the night sky a dream and illuminated both sides of the river.

Yang Tianyou did not set off fireworks. He stood at the window, Yang Tianyou held a cigarette in his mouth, his expression a little quiet.

During the Chinese New Year, he can only stay at home alone. In fact, he prefers liveliness and is usually afraid of being alone like this, but now he can only stand quietly here.

He missed me, Qi Mengxiang, and Feng Qingqing.

Yang Tianyou was stunned, but his phone suddenly rang. When he saw that it was a text message.

Zhang Yanyan posted it, the content is very simple: "Boss, Happy New Year."

Yang Tianyou smiled and replied to the text message, the content was equally simple.

"Thank you, have fun."

Then Yang Tianyou's cell phone rang again, and when he saw it, it was another text message.

However, this time the difference was sent by Zhang Yanyan, but Feng Qingqing. Yang Tianyou had never called Feng Qingqing. He thought that she would change the number after going to Shanghai, but he didn't expect that this number could still be used.

Feng Qingqing's text message content is very fun.

"What are men doing? Do you miss me?"

Yang Tianyou laughed dryly, sat upright, and replied seriously: "I thought about it, I often think about it."

"What do you want me to do?" Feng Qingqing replied.

Yang Tianyou thought for a while before replying: "I miss you!"

After sending the text message, Yang Tianyou couldn't help but laugh. He actually enjoyed this feeling and was extremely exciting.

As a result, Feng Qingqing responded to a text message after a long time.

"Okay, then I'll be here!"

Yang Tianyou's sweat came out, damn it, you slut!

After making a few jokes with Feng Qingqing, the latter did not reply. Yang Tianyou was a little anxious and couldn't help calling back. The result was that the phone was turned off, which made Yang Tianyou a little amused.

Sister, there is no need to do this, right? If you want to turn off the phone, you have to say to me. Let me wait for so long, aren’t you kidding me?

Then, Yang Tianyou wanted to send some friends, but after thinking about it, he didn't find a person to send, nor did he receive text messages from others. No one could remember him, and of course he wouldn't remember others.

Sitting on the sofa, Yang Tianyou wanted to curse for no reason.

After waiting for a long time, the phone ringtone rang again. Yang Tianyou had to go to bed, but just now he was lying on the bed, the phone ringtone rang.

When I saw it, the text message prompted that the number showed that it was from Shanghai, and the content almost made Yang Tianyou feel very happy.

In fact, the content is very simple, just the four words Happy New Year. The key is that the person who sent the text message actually put a bracket on the back of the text message, and the signature inside was Qi Mengxiang.

Yang Tianyou was so proud that he had never doubted whether this number was really Qi Mengxiang's. He immediately replied: "Xiangxiang, I miss you!"

The other party also responded to the text message quickly and said, "Stop coming, have you tried your best to promise me?"

Yang Tianyou immediately replied: "Of course, I am a man, so I naturally have to work hard. I have already opened a brick factory and have made hundreds of thousands of dollars. Don't worry, I'll make five million in four years. Don't run away with other men. You said you'll have to wait for me for four years."

"Okay, I'll wait for you for four years, but don't call me normally. I'll come to Shanghai Jiaotong University to find me when you earn five million."

Yang Tianyou replied: "Okay, sure."

The other party did not reply again, and Yang Tianyou seemed to be satisfied. He threw his phone on the head of the bed. He thought he could fall asleep peacefully, but he suffered from insomnia due to excitement.

At the same time, in a luxurious villa in Shanghai, Qi Xinpeng put a small and exquisite Nokia phone in his hand on the tea machine with a cold sweat on his face. He looked at the direction of the bathroom and heard the sound of water coming from it. He felt a little guilty.

After a while, Qi Mengxiang came out of the bathroom in her nightgown and sat on the sofa. She was very sensitive to the fact that Qi Xinpeng was a little uncomfortable. In fact, Qi Xinpeng had already concealed it well enough, but Qi Mengxiang was too careful.

Frowning, Qi Mengxiang thought for a while, suddenly found her cell phone on the tea machine, and immediately said, "Dad, have you used my cell phone?"

Qi Xinpeng was startled and said quickly: "No."

"But I didn't put it in this position just now. I saw it when I went in. In addition, I also heard my phone ringing inside." Qi Mengxiang said confidently.

Qi Xinpeng complained, not knowing that this was just a test of his daughter, and immediately confessed honestly: "Oh, I used it, haha, I just used the calendar on your phone. I want to see what day the lunar calendar is today."

Khan, just after saying this, when Qi Xinpeng saw his daughter's angry look on his face, he wished he could get into the ground. Today is the New Year, what day do you think the lunar calendar is?

However, what surprised Qi Xinpeng was that Qi Mengxiang was not angry, but instead smiled suddenly.

"Why are you laughing?" Qi Xinpeng felt scared.

Qi Mengxiang laughed and said, "Dad, I know, you sent a message to Yang Tianyou, right?"

Khan, Qi Xinpeng really didn't know whether to be grateful for his daughter being too smart or to be depressed that his daughter was too cunning, and he smiled bitterly.

"I don't blame you either." Qi Mengxiang was still smiling.

Qi Xinpeng was a little speechless and dared not speak easily.

Qi Mengxiang said seriously: "I'm just a little curious. Can you tell me that you tried so hard to get together with Yang Tianyou. Do you really want me to marry him? Or do you have to use me?"

"This, this is hard to describe. I think I will tell you when the time is right, let it go!" Qi Xinpeng's expression also became serious.
