Outside the house,
Snowflakes were dancing in the sky.
Under the dim yellow light, it was like a mat leaning down.
Hurried and fierce,
Accompanied by the howling cold wind,
Some of the doors and windows that were not closed tightly made a clanging sound.
Listening to the noise coming from the other houses in the courtyard,
He Wenyuan stood outside the door and said nothing.
Her hands were clenched tightly in her sleeves.
Suddenly, a questioning voice came from behind,"
"Why didn't you let Big Sister divorce Liu Hongchang?”
He Wentao glared at his second sister angrily.
"I told you in the house just now that I don't want Liu Hongchang to have an easy time. As long as Eldest Sister doesn't divorce him, he can't find another woman."
"Otherwise, he will be scolded to death and criticized."
He Wentao looked at He Wenyuan suspiciously and confirmed again,
"Is what you said true?"
"Of course it's all true. Hurry up and go back to sleep. You still have to wake up early to sweep the snow tomorrow morning."
He Wentao stared at his second sister for a while. Seeing that her expression was normal, he said,
Only then did the doubts in his heart dissipate a little.
However, she felt that something was wrong.
"You've been acting a little strange these days. You don't even walk with me when we go to school. After the holidays, you've been missing all day.”
"Of course, I went to play with my classmates. Otherwise, it would be too boring to stay at home."
Actually, He Wenyuan wasn't going to play with her classmates.
Instead, he was running around to borrow money.
Accompanied by Zhou Hongbo,
Using Liu Hongchang's reputation to borrow money from some people,
After all, He Wentao was still young and was fooled by He Wenyuan's words.
He did not expect her to be so bold.
She turned around and went back to her room to sleep.
When He Wenyuan was alone outside,
Only then did her eyes reveal a hint of hatred.
He recalled how his eldest sister had cried in the room just now.
And Liu Hongchang didn't care about his family's downfall after he left.
She would be furious.
It was the hatred and anger he felt for Liu Hongchang.
She was looking forward to the end of the year.
When the factory started to work, Zhou Hongbo could use his connections to make use of Deque Liang.
When the time comes, after he made money with Dequerang,
Then, she could stand in front of Liu Hongchang confidently.
The reason why she didn't agree to the divorce between her eldest sister and Liu Hongchang today was because
The main reason was that she wanted to borrow more money.
If you want to earn money, you should earn it once and for all.
After he made use of Liu Hongchang to earn money, he would ask his sister to divorce him.
His expression would be very interesting.
You'll regret it to death,
Liu Hongchang was a fool.
Indeed, he was born to be a chef.
He had actually given up such a good opportunity to sell Dusk.
He was satisfied with earning some money.
As expected, his vision was still too shallow, his knowledge was limited, and he was too easily satisfied.
He was proud of himself outside for a while.
Until he sneezed.
Then, she wrapped her clothes around herself and went back to her room to sleep.
......
The next morning,
It was still dark.
Liu Hongchang and his family woke up early.
Everyone had changed into new clothes.
The neighbors don't get up late.
Some people even started to make firecrackers.
Because I have to get up early to make dumplings,
I still want to open the door,
After eating the dumplings, they shoveled the snow in the courtyard. When dawn came, they went out in groups of three or five to pay New Year's greetings.
"Hong Chang, the water in the pot has already boiled. Hurry up and set off the firecrackers to make the dumplings."
Wang Cuilan's happy voice came from the kitchen.
Liu Hongchang lit the firecrackers with the firewood he had just pulled out from under the pot.
Following a series of crackling sounds,
One by one, the white and fat dumplings were put into the pot.
The water is ripe three times,
The dumplings were fished out one by one.
"Dumplings,"
Liu Hongchang was holding two plates of dumplings in his hands, and Cao Xiaoxiao was following behind him impatiently.
Like a little greedy cat,
Inside the house.
There were plates of steaming dumplings on the dining table.
Wang Cuilan sat at the front.
There was a cushion on the ground in front of her.
She walked forward and picked up the cushion on the ground.
"I won't kneel this year. It's not convenient for Xiao Ying to visit. Come, come, give out red packets."
Then, he took out a few red packets from his pocket.
"This is Yunchang's, this is Xiaoying's, and this is for Hongchang."
"This is the biggest one for Xiaoxiao."
Cao Xiaoxiao took the red packet with both hands and said with a smile,"
"Thank you, auntie. I wish auntie good health and all the best."
" Xiaoxiao sure knows how to talk." Wang Cuilan looked at Cao Xiaoxiao with satisfaction.
"Hurry up and eat the dumplings. After eating the dumplings, we'll sweep the snow before we go to pay our New Year's greetings."
" It's time to eat dumplings," Cao Xiaoxiao shouted excitedly.
The little girl had just taken a few bites when she suddenly frowned.
He took out a dime from his mouth.
When he saw the coin, he looked at Cao Xiaoxiao, whose face was scrunched up and looking aggrieved.
They couldn't help but laugh.
"It seems that Xiaoxiao will definitely have a smooth journey this year. She will definitely pass the high school examination."
Wu Xiaoying excitedly took out a coin from her mouth.
"Mom, look, I ate it too."
Wang Cuilan said cheerfully,
"The two luckiest people in our family have already appeared. This year, Xiaoxiao will definitely pass the exam, and Xiaoying will also be able to give birth to a fat grandson for me."
After everyone finished eating the dumplings,
He started shoveling the snow in the yard.
Cao Xiaoxiao even pestered Liu Hongchang to make a snowman for her.
" Big Brother, I want to eat for a walk." As she said this, Cao Xiaoxiao even glanced into the room.
The Liuliu she was talking about was when the weather was cold, popsicles would grow under the eaves of the house.
You can beat it with a stick,
He could play with it in his hand or eat it like a popsicle.
This was a toy for many children.
Wang Cuilan had heard Cao Xiaoxiao say that she wanted to eat.
He was afraid that she would have diarrhea if she ate this kind of food in this weather.
Wang Cuilan did not let her eat.
However, the little girl could not help but be curious.
Therefore, she deliberately whispered to Liu Hongchang this time,
"Aren't you afraid that your auntie will scold you if she finds out?”
"Don't be afraid. Big Brother is here."
Liu Hongchang tapped her head.
"I really can't do anything to you. Go get me a stick."
" Oh, I knew that Big Brother dotes on me the most." Cao Xiaoxiao quickly ran to find a stick.
On the first day of the new year, apart from occasionally going out to visit the neighbors,
Liu Hongchang stayed at home.
In the second year of junior high school,
He took the gifts to Chief Hou and Factory Manager Xu's house to pay a New Year visit.
Then, they had lunch at Bureau Chief Hou's house.
In the next few days,
Other than going out occasionally, Liu Hongchang stayed at home to accompany Cao Xiaoxiao.
However, he realized that Cao Xiaoxiao's mood had been a little off recently.
It was not as high as when he first arrived.
"Xiao Xiao, did you encounter something unhappy? Or are you not comfortable living at home?"
Cao Xiaoxiao quickly waved her hand.
"No, I'm very happy here. Auntie and you guys are very good to me."
"Then why are you unhappy?”
Cao Xiaoxiao looked up at Liu Hongchang and said pitifully,"
"Big brother, can you send me back to my hometown later? I still want to stay here for a few days."
Liu Hongchang was stunned.
Then, he found it funny.
So Cao Xiaoxiao was troubled because of this.
If she had known earlier, she would have made it clear to her.
"Xiaoxiao, I didn't say that I was going to send you to the countryside."
"Ah?" Cao Xiaoxiao was very surprised and did not understand what Liu Hongchang meant.
"You can stay here in the future. This is your home. You don't have any relatives in the countryside anyway."
"Big brother, is what you said true?”
"Of course it's true,"
"Great, I don't have to go,"
Cao Xiaoxiao jumped up excitedly in the room.
Until after the Lantern Festival.
On the 16th of the first month,
School reopened, factories started working,
Everything started to get orderly again.
On the first day of work,
Liu Hongchang found Liu Zi alone.
At this moment, Liu Zi's face was covered in oil, and his face was filled with joy.
She could tell that he had spent the new year in peace.
"Master, why are you looking for me?"
"Liu Zi, you should have learned most of my skills now, right?"
Liu Hongchang had done his best for Liu Zi during this period of time.
Without holding back,
This guy improved very quickly.
Now, he could even be dragged out to take charge of one area alone.
When Liu Zi heard this, he thought that Liu Hongchang thought that he had learned too much and was stealing his job.
After all, there was an old saying that went," The disciple of the church starved the master to death."
Hence, he quickly waved his hand and said,
" How can I? Master, your cooking skills are too good!"
Seeing Liu Zi's modesty, Liu Hongchang interrupted him,"
"It's not what you think. You're my disciple. How much you can learn is up to you. I'll also teach you without holding back..."
"I'm looking for you for something else,"
Liu Zi breathed a sigh of relief and smiled."
"Master, tell me."
"I'm going to ask you to resign,"
"Alright, I'll go and tell Department Director Yao."
Liu Zi was still a temporary worker. He only needed Director Yao's approval to resign.
There weren't that many steps.
Seeing Liu Zi agree so readily, it was Liu Hongchang's turn to be surprised.
"Aren't you going to ask why?"
"Don't ask. Master won't harm me anyway."
"Besides, my parents tell me every day to listen to you and do whatever you want me to do."
Looking at Liu Zi's sincere face, Liu Hongchang was also very touched.
He didn't misjudge her.
"I plan to let you resign, and I'll pay for you to open a restaurant by yourself."
"Of course, there's also that girl called Zhou Juan. If you want to bring her along, you can bring her along."
Hearing Liu Hongchang mention this matter, Liu Zi's face turned red, which was rare.
In this way, he would have more time to spend with Zhou Juan.
He was very tempted.
However, he still said worriedly,
"Master, we can't do this now. We'll definitely lose money when the time comes."
At this time, there was no such thing as self-employment.
Usually, it was fine to set up a mobile stall.
If you open a restaurant all of a sudden, who else will be investigated if not you?
Liu Zi's worries were not unreasonable.
But Liu Hongchang was not worried.
Now that a large number of educated youths had returned home, there were suddenly many unemployed people in the city.
These people were waiting for Guo Jia to arrange work for them.
All day long, idle, wandering around,
It caused the crime rate in the city to soar.
For this reason, Guo Jia began to encourage self-employment.
It was also in 1980 that the first individual business license was issued.
Therefore, Liu Hongchang planned to make early plans.
First, prepare the people who opened the restaurant and the things.
After he got the business license, he could open for business immediately.
Liu Zi's culinary skills had just improved, so he was the most suitable person to do this.
Liu Zi was now blindly worshipping his master.
Seeing how confident Liu Hongchang was, he said firmly,"
"Alright, since Master has said so, I'll resign immediately."
