Chapter 31: The New Year


Xue Pingshun was frightened because he had offended the daughter of Yao Cichang's family of the Ministry of Communications, but Chen Zikun didn't take it seriously: "What happened to the daughter of the Cichang's family?

Does it mean she has two more eyes than others?

Can she still be injured after a car crash?"

Is there any royal law for beating people?”

Xue Pingshun sighed: "That's the truth, but who can reason with you these days?

Dakunzi, you are young and vigorous.

I would like to advise you, if you want to live longer in this world, you must learn a Words.”

"Which word" "Tolerate."

Back in the house, Bao Qing saw a business card on the table.

He picked it up and looked at it.

He jumped up like a cat whose tail was stepped on: "Du Xinwu, the hero of the north and south."

Xue Pingshun's eyes also lit up.

He took the business card and looked at it, and said in surprise: "It's really Du Xinwu, Du Daxia.

I didn't expect that the guest who came in the afternoon would be him."

Chen Zikun said: "The name of the hero of the North and South is very famous.

Is he very powerful?"

Xue Pingshun said: "Daxia Du once had a martial arts stranger as his teacher.

He was very good at martial arts.

He once served as the bodyguard of General Song Jiaoren Song.

He was not an ordinary person."

Chen Zikun asked: "How does it compare to Yu Zhankui?"

Xue Pingshun looked disdainful: "Compared with Master Du, Yu Zhankui is nothing."

Chen Zikun nodded thoughtfully.

The next day is New Year's Eve, and the New Year's goods in Ziguang Depot are well prepared, including food, clothing, use, play, food, raw, cooked, dried, and fresh.

Not to mention the usual pork, mutton and beef, in order to take care of Chen Zikun's taste, Myolie also specially bought some Guandong products, such as venison, pheasant, frozen fish; as well as water-milled rice cakes, cold bamboo shoots, magnolia slices and other southern products.

I also bought a complete outfit, including a satin melon skin hat, a blue cotton robe, the outer coat can be removed and worn alone in summer, a black mandarin jacket, two pairs of white-soled single-face cloth shoes, a close-fitting small coat, The socks are all brand new and the size is just right.

In addition, there are incense sticks, tinfoil, door gods, kitchen gods, candles for Buddha, paper flowers, honey offerings, firecrackers, two kickers, marle seeds, and peace flowers set off on New Year's Eve.

With Xing'er's care, the car factory also felt a bit like the New Year.

During the day on New Year's Eve, Chen Zikun gave all the clerks in the car factory a holiday and asked them to go home early to celebrate the New Year.

Uncle Xue also asked him to go home.

The huge yard Only Chen Zikun and Aunt Wang were left.

Although it was still daytime, the sound of firecrackers was already coming one after another.

Chen Zikun couldn't help but feel a little sad when he thought of last year's New Year's Eve in the mountains with his brothers drinking large bowls of wine and eating meat.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door.

Aunt Wang hurried to open the door.

What came was Xing'er's family and Xiao Shunzi's sister and brother.

All six of them were wearing guest clothes.

Except for Chen Sanpi, everyone was smiling.

"Da Kunzi, are you glad that we will spend the New Year with you?"

Yan Hong wore a brand-new red coat today and was beaming with joy.

Since Xiao Shunzi went to the Liuguo Hotel to work as a waiter, she no longer acted as a secret door.

I can also raise my head in front of them.

"Happy, happy."

Chen Zikun rubbed his hands excitedly.

He is crazy about being alone and likes crowds.

With so many people coming, the house suddenly became lively.

Xing'er's wife and Aunt Wang were cooking.

Guo'er took a pair of kickers and went to the entrance of the alley to play with the children.

Xiao Shunzi sat with Chen Zikun.

While chatting in the main room, Chen Sanpi stood timidly in the corner, wanting to come over but seemed hesitant to do so.

"Da Kunzi, try this."

Xiao Shunzi handed over a cigarette.

Chen Zikun took it and smelled it, "What smoke?"

"Three forts, this one is popular in Liuguo Hotel recently."

Xiao Shunzi took a green and gold cigarette box, flicked the bottom of the box skillfully, and a cigarette jumped into his mouth, and he picked up a red match.

He lit it on the soles of his shoes, first for Chen Zikun, and then for himself.

He raised his legs in black leather shoes and puffed out his eyes in triumph.

Chen Zikun picked up the cigarette case placed on the coffee table and called to Chen Sanpi: "Uncle, you want one too."

Chen Sanpi quickly turned around, took the cigarette with both hands and put it on his ears, smiling flatteringly.

Before he could strike up a conversation, Chen Zikun took out a piece of gold and said, "Uncle, please help me buy some firecrackers and some fried peanuts from the alley."

"Okay, I'll go right away."

Chen Sanpi turned around and went out.

Xiao Shunzi curled his lips: "For one dollar, he can get five cents in black."

Chen Zikun said: "Even if it's all black, it's only one yuan.

I saw that he was awkward, so I sent him out deliberately."

"That's it."

Xiao Shunzi stopped continuing this topic and started talking about anecdotes about the Liuguo Hotel, such as the young master of a certain chief's family who fell in love with a social butterfly, and the young lady of a certain warlord's family who eloped with someone. tidbits of news.

"There was a dance party at the Liuguo Hotel last night.

The young lady from Yao Cichang's family got very angry and scolded the young master from Cichang Xu's family," Xiao Shunzi said with great joy.

Chen Zikun interrupted him and asked: "Secretary Yao from the Ministry of Communications" "Hey, how do you know?"

Xiao Shunzi was puzzled.

"You're not looking down on me.

The assistant at the library of Peking University is my friend.

I just read the newspapers.

I don't know how many deputy ministers named Yao there are in the cabinet."

Chen Zikun's words were a bit bragging.

It was true that Assistant Mao was his friend, but newspapers were not so easy to borrow.

"Haha, yes, it's Deputy Chief Yao of the Ministry of Communications.

The daughter of his family has a really bad temper.

I really don't know how Mr.

Xu is getting through it, tsk tsk."

Xiao Shunzi shook his head and sighed, as if he was very touched by the gossip of the high-ranking family. interest.

"Which department is Deputy Chief Xu from?"

Chen Zikun asked.

He suddenly remembered Xu Tingge and heard Xu Er say that he was just the Deputy Chief.

"That's a big reason.

Xu Shu from the Ministry of War criticized Deputy Commander Xu and Army General.

They are both deputy commanders.

His deputy commander is more powerful than Deputy Commander Yao, but Mr.

Xu is his nephew and the relationship is a little further away.

In this way It’s evenly matched again.”

"Oh" Chen Zikun blew out a smoke ring and suddenly understood why Xu Er was so arrogant.

It turned out to be the coachman of the admiral's family.

Just as he was talking, Chen Sanpi came in with a lot of firecrackers and a big bag full of fried peanuts wrapped in old newspapers.

He put them on the coffee table and said, "It's all done.

That old man at the entrance of the alley is so pitiful.

I put it."

I bought all his peanuts and asked him to go home and have a good New Year.”

"Uncle Chen is very thoughtful."

Chen Zikun praised.

One dollar can buy so many things.

It seems that he really has no dirty money.

"Well, I'll sweep the floor."

Chen Sanpi was encouraged and seemed to be in a good mood.

He took a big broom and swept the floor vigorously in the yard.

"Xing'er's father is not bad to the core."

Chen Zikun said with emotion.

"That's right, they all come from poor families, how bad they can be.

If they hadn't been addicted to alcohol and gambling, Xing'er's family wouldn't have been so miserable.

By the way, there will be a fireworks party at the Liuguo Hotel in two days.

They are all Western fireworks, which are different from our second kickers.

They are absolutely beautiful.

You can come when the time comes."

"Eat peanuts."

Chen Zikun greeted and opened the newspaper bag.

The peanuts inside were fragrant, crispy, and plump.

He casually opened the old newspaper and took a look.

This was a picture of the Times last November.

The headline on it was: The government's diplomatic delegation went to Paris to attend the Peace Conference of the victorious powers.

Here is a little news: President Cai Yuanpei of Peking University announced a three-day holiday, and students took to the streets to cheer and march.

"Tsk tsk, our country has become a victorious country."

Chen Zikun said while flicking the newspaper.

"No, it's different now than in the Qing Dynasty, when others were on top of us.

Now we are the Republic of China, a victorious country.

You know, the European war wiped out all the men.

Now we have to start from China.

Let the man go over and help them carry on the family line," Xiao Shunzi said in a lively manner.

Chen Zikun was startled: "This is new, is it possible that all the men in this family are dead?"

"It's not necessary to die, it's not enough anyway.

I heard them say at the Six Nations Hotel that one million people died in Britain and two million people died in France in this war.

They were all strong young men in their prime.

What do you think?

"How many widows are there?

It's not enough.

We have to import Chinese men."

As he said this, he looked around and said in a low voice, pretending to be mysterious: "I heard that there are big houses in Europe, and four or five women are waiting on them.

If I can't leave, I would like to go."

Chen Zikun laughed dumbly: "Come on, who believes it?"

Xiao Shunzi became anxious: "I lied to you that I was a puppy.

I heard this from someone at the Liuguo Hotel.

It's absolutely true.

Our country has sent 600,000 strong men there, and it's not enough.

Duan Zhengyi made up another One hundred thousand soldiers were trained to fight in Europe.

When Germany and Austria heard the news, guess what, they surrendered.

Hey, we won, and China is also a victor. " Chen Zikun didn't read many newspapers, and he never hung out in the Six Nations Hotel.

He couldn't defeat him, so he had to eat peanuts.

Xiao Shunzi laughed twice and said: "The Six Nations Hotel is going to celebrate the Chinese New Year and the victory in the European War.

Let's build a large There will be a fireworks show, and celebrities from all over Beijing will come.

I can get tickets, Da Kunzi, come and have fun, and see the grandeur of the Six Nations Hotel."

"You can keep it for yourself," Chen Zikun said.

The aroma of the food wafted up, and Xing'er and Aunt Wang were walking back and forth like a revolving door carrying steaming plates and bowls.

In no time, they filled the large round table with chicken, duck, fish and meat, which was even more tempting.

The plates of pork-filled dumplings can be used as rice or as a dish.

They are dipped in high vinegar sesame oil, garlic cloves, and some Erguotou.

They are so beautiful that even a god would not replace them.

The family sat around the round table.

Aunt Wang wanted to hide in the kitchen to eat, but Chen Zikun persuaded her to stay on the table.

In front of the table full of food and wine, everyone didn't know how to speak.

In the end, it was Xing'er who turned out to be the most generous.

She stood up with a wine glass and said, "Thanks to Dakunzi, we can have a decent New Year this year, with wine, vegetables and dumplings."

As soon as she stood up, she was choked with sobs.

Xing'er Niang wiped her eyes with the lapel of her clothes, Yan Hong lowered her head and said nothing, Aunt Wang also felt sad, and Chen Sanpi was so ashamed that she wanted to bury her head in her crotch.

On the other hand, Guo'er's eyes were fixed on the shiny chicken legs on the plate, and she wanted to stretch out a hand in her throat.

Xiao Shunzi was also anxiously scratching his head and ears, wanting to start the table quickly.

Chen Zikun took over and said: "From now on, we will do this every year.

We will have wine, vegetables and dumplings.

We can make them well and have enough food."

Myolie burst into laughter, and the sound of firecrackers sounded outside.

The feeling of the New Year was getting more and more full.

Chen Zikun raised his glass and said, "Let's go one."

Everyone raised their glasses.

The men raised their necks and drank.

The women took a sip and blushed on their faces.

Finally started eating, Xiao Shunzi and Guo'er pounced on it like two evil wolves, grabbed a chicken leg and gnawed it fiercely.

They were scolded by Yan Hong and Xing'er Niang.

Looking at Chen Zikun again, he was not much better.

His hands Holding the pig knuckle and biting it, his behavior was no different from that of a living bandit.

Everyone started laughing and said that Da Kunzi looked domineering and majestic.

Xiao Shunzi pretended to be angry, saying that it would be fine if it happened to Da Kunzi, but it would not be good if it happened to me.

Where can I go to reason with him?

"You can defeat Yu Zhankui if you have the ability."

Guoer contradicted him.

Everyone laughed.

New Year's Eve ended with the sound of firecrackers.

No one left that night.

The older ones gathered together to chat and keep vigil, while the younger ones went out to play with firecrackers and went to bed when they were tired.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Xue Pingshun and his family came early to pay New Year greetings to everyone and go to work.

All walks of life are closed during the New Year, but rubber balls cannot rest.

During the New Year period, everyone visits relatives most frequently.

At that time, going out was all about buying and selling.

If you could make a lot of money at the end of the day, no one would be willing to take a break.

After chatting with Uncle Xue and Mr.

Bao Qing for a while, Chen Zikun looked at the big clock in the room and said, "It's time for me to do some work."

Uncle Xue said: "Just take a day off today.

If you are reluctant to give up the car, ask Baoqing to help you.

His clinic is also closed."

Chen Zikun said: "No one else can do my job."

After saying that, he pulled the foreign car and went out.

"This kid is really a hard worker."

The elders sighed.

No one knew that Chen Zikun went out with an empty car and ignored the person who called for a car.

He went directly to Lin Zhai, stopped at the entrance of the alley, and began to wait eagerly.

After a while, the door of Lin's house opened with a creak.

He poked his little head out and looked around, then quietly slipped out.

Dressed in plain blue and elegant, it was Chen Zikun's dream lover Lin Wenjing
