Chapter 67 It's New Year's Eve

When Xu Hanwen accompanied the leaders of the company to reconfirm the layout of the exhibition hall on the first floor and set foot on the way home, it was already 4 o'clock in the afternoon on New Year's Eve. A few people are hurrying home.

This year is said to be spent at home, but Lin Jia and Xu Runting have already agreed with Xu Hanwen that they will have New Year's Eve dinner together at Xu Runting's house. A store full of fish and rice, and a good intention to have fish every year.

"Wenwen, are you home yet?" Lin Jia's call came, probably calling her to have dinner.

"Auntie, I'm already home and I'm cooking the fish. It will be ready soon." Xu Hanwen answered the phone while paying attention to the fish in the pot.

"Have you posted the couplet? If not, I'll ask Xu Fei to come and help you." Xu Runting answered the phone.

"Well, I've posted it. The fish will come when I'm done."

"Mom, mom, hurry up, I miss you!" Li Yiran's crisp voice came from the phone.

Hearing her daughter's voice, Xu Hanwen's face suddenly showed apology.I have been busy with company affairs these two days, and I have hardly made out with my daughter. In a few days, my daughter will go to Beijing, so I have to give my daughter more time these few days.

Put the prepared meals and dishes on the dining table, then put all kinds of fruits in the fruit bowl, candies, pastries and all kinds of Chinese New Year snacks on the tea table, finally there is a little Chinese New Year atmosphere at home, Xu Hanwen Nodding secretly, she tidied her hair carefully, took the new coat prepared for her daughter, and went to Xu Runting's house for the New Year's Eve dinner.

"I heard your laughter before I went upstairs. It looks like I'm very happy today!" Looking at the daughter who opened the door for him dotingly, he patted her little face lightly.

"Mom, mom, why did you come here? I was just waiting for you to come to celebrate the New Year with grandpa, grandma, and great-grandpa." Li Yiran shouted excitedly when she saw her mother, whom she hadn't seen for a day.

"Well, then let's call grandpa and grandma first, and give them New Year greetings." Xu Hanwen immediately called her hometown.

"Happy New Year, Happy New Year! However, I wish my grandpa, grandma, uncle and aunt! I wish my grandpa and grandma good health, blessings like the East China Sea, and a longevity like Nanshan; I wish my uncles and aunts smooth work, prosperous business and abundant wealth; I wish my little cousins ​​a long life and prosperity." Smart, the longer you grow, the more handsome you are, the longer you grow stronger, grow up quickly, and protect Ranran in the future! By the way, uncles put away Ranran's red envelopes first, and remember to give them to Ranran when she goes back next time. "

Li Yiran didn't care who answered the call, she just chattered to the one with the hands-free function on, anyway, she knew that no matter who answered the call, the call would be the same as before, with the hands-free function turned on, everyone should be able to hear it of.

The sound of firecrackers came from the phone. There is no ban on setting off firecrackers during Chinese New Year in rural areas, so every household will set off a lot of firecrackers.

The laughter of the elderly and children came from the phone, and the blessings came one after another. Everyone wished each other well and hoped that the whole family will be healthy and happy in the coming year.

"Mom, call Laodou quickly, I have to pay New Year's greetings to grandpa, grandpa, grandma, and Laodou!" Li Yiran yelled anxiously after hanging up the phone to grandpa and grandma.

At this moment, Xu Hanwen's cell phone rang, and it turned out that it was Zhang Lin who called.

"Hey, happy new year! Zhang Lin, I'm about to call you, but I want to wish you a happy new year!"

"Mom, give me the phone number, I want to greet my great-grandfather and the others!" Li Yiran became even more anxious when she heard that it was Zhang Lin's call.

"Of course, happy new year!" Zhang Lin's clear voice rang out in the room. It turned out that Xu Hanwen turned on the hands-free function of her phone.

"Old Dou, Ranran wishes you New Year's greetings! I wish Laodou a smooth work in the new year, and it is best to bring Ranran younger siblings! Hey, why are you beating me, Mom?" It turned out that Xu Hanwen heard her daughter suddenly mention What younger siblings, they couldn't help but reached out and gave their daughter a chestnut.

"Old Dou, are your great-grandfather and grandparents here? I still want to give them New Year's greetings!"

"Well, wait a minute, old man comes into the house, they are all in the house." Zhang Lin in Beidu was preparing to enter grandpa's house. Every year, the Zhang family reunited with the old man for the New Year's Eve dinner.

"Of course, there are a lot of people here today at Grandpa's place. I'm going to turn on the phone on speakerphone now. You are ready to celebrate the New Year." Zhang Lin entered the room and saw that almost everyone in the family was there, so he told Li Yiran gently, He was looking forward to the performance of the little girl.

"Grandpa, of course I want to wish everyone a new year." Zhang Lin's voice came from the phone saying hello to Mr. Zhang.

"Oh, bring the phone here quickly." When Mr. Zhang heard that he was going to wish everyone New Year's greetings, he was busy trying to take the phone from Zhang Lin's hand.

"I turned on the hands-free function." Zhang Lin's mobile phone has a powerful hands-free function, and the sound can be heard clearly by people in a room. The old man motioned for everyone to be quiet.

"Of course, don't be nervous. You can do whatever you want to celebrate the New Year. Just now, it's good to give New Year's greetings to grandparents." Xu Hanwen's voice comforting her daughter came clearly from the phone. Maybe Li Yiran was a little nervous when she heard the crowd. After all, she is just a little girl who is not yet nine years old.

"Of course I would like to wish everyone a happy New Year. I wish my great-grandpa good health and good fortune like the East China Sea. I wish my grandparents good health, full of children and grandchildren, and happiness. I wish my uncles and aunts smooth work and prosperous careers. My brothers are improving in their studies, the longer they are, the more handsome they are!" Li Yiran's crisp and sweet voice was clearly transmitted from the phone to every corner of the room.

It turned out that the Zhang family who had some disdain for Li Yiran's mother and daughter were immediately shocked by the well-organized New Year's greetings to the little girl, but there were also some who didn't take it seriously. Think about a nine-year-old girl who still looked timid when she came last time How can there be such a big change in just a few days? I think it's just reading from the script.

"Hahaha, okay, great, grandpa also gave New Year greetings to Ranran and your mother! By the way, I will give New Year greetings to grandpa when Ranran comes to Beijing." Grandpa Zhang laughed loudly.

"Then, does grandpa have any red envelopes? Everyone says congratulations on the New Year, and here are the red envelopes! But now I can only greet everyone on the phone, and I can't bring the red envelopes. Alas... ouch, mom, you hit me again... "Xu Hanwen saw that her daughter lost herself as she talked more and more, so she raised her hand and gave her another blow.

"Hahaha, there are red envelopes, there are red envelopes, you all listen carefully, when everyone gives out red envelopes, give me a copy for Ranran, remember it all!" Mr. Zhang's majestic voice came, and Li Yiran turned to herself Mother stuck out her tongue and made a grimace.

"I wish grandpa a younger life and a stronger life; at the same time, I wish everyone a happy new year, good luck in everything, smooth work and progress in study!" The phone call ended with Xu Hanwen's blessing.

"Wenwen, it seems that the old man of the Zhang family likes Ranran very much." Xu Runting, who had been following Xu Hanwen's mother and daughter's phone calls with Zhang's family, couldn't help sighing, and at the same time was relieved that her niece could finally regain happiness.

"Yes, Wenwen, you must be happy in the future!" Lin Jia couldn't help being happy for Xu Hanwen.

"Of course, call your aunt's house. Why don't you say you are a descendant of the Li family? Send your grandparents New Year's greetings." Xu Hanwen suddenly thought of the old couple of the Li family far away in the northwest.

"Mom, is it okay?" Li Yiran's face suddenly became a little cautious. Although her father is a wound in her heart, she usually makes herself forget it deliberately, but after all, it is her father, and sometimes she still thinks of him. The father who came to be hurt, and at the same time when her grandparents left N City, the vicissitudes of their backs and staggering steps would flash in her mind from time to time.

"Hello, who are you looking for?" When Li Qin's tired voice came from the phone, Xu Hanwen's eyes turned red.

"Sister, it's me! Hanwen, I would like to wish you a New Year." Her tone was choked with sobs.

"Xiaowen?" Li Qin's voice was full of surprise.

"Auntie, happy new year! Are grandpa and grandma here? I'm here to pay them New Year's greetings." Li Yiran took the phone from her mother.

"Oh, oh, but happy new year! Wait a moment, I'll ask grandpa to answer the phone." Then Li Qin's excited shout came from the phone. "Father and mother, it's Ranran's call. I wish you a happy new year."

"Of course, I'm grandpa, happy new year!" An old voice came through the phone.

"Grandpa, happy new year! You and grandma must take care of your health in the new year. Ranran will come to honor you when you grow up, and you must be well!" Li Yiran heard her grandfather's old voice, tears streaming from her eyes She overflowed, she didn't dare to wish grandpa and great-grandpa a happy new year like they did.

Xu Hanwen looked at her daughter, she really didn't know how such a young child could have such a delicate heart, thinking about what her daughter had experienced in the past six months, really made Xu Hanwen feel pain like a knife in her heart.

"Okay, your grandma and I are looking forward to your growing up soon, you must study hard and listen to your mother, you know?" The old couple of the Li family probably did not expect that Xu Hanwen and Li Yiran would call them to pay New Year's greetings, but He kept telling his granddaughter to study hard.

"Uncle, Li Fang's case has been investigated and reported to the central government, the approval document has been issued, and I have read the internal documents. After the Spring Festival, I should contact you. There are some civil compensations, including the original compensation from the prison. It's about 30 in total." Xu Hanwen revealed the general situation of Li Fang's case to the old man of the Li family, so that they can live a more comfortable life this year.

"So there is still about 20 compensation?" Li Qin asked.

"It should be. The compensation may come with the documents. I don't know the details." Xu Hanwen really didn't know.

There was no more sound on the phone, but there was no hang-up either. The sound was cut off for about three or four minutes, and Li Qin's voice came again.

"Wenwen, my parents have discussed the money, and it will be used as Ranran's education fund. Please train Ranran well."

"Sister, tell your uncle and aunt that you don't have to give all the money to Ranran. It is Hanwen's responsibility to cultivate Ranran. When the money is really counted, I will leave one hundred thousand for Ranran. It can be regarded as a thought for Ranran. Do you think so?" Xu Hanwen said the same thing to Grandpa Zhang when they were talking in the study, this is her truest thought.

"Wenwen, it's a great loss for our Li family to lose you!" Li Qin sighed on the phone.

Putting down the phone call with the Li family, Xu Hanwen was a little dazed. In the end, she still couldn't completely ignore the Li family. Li Fang's ruthlessness and the kindness of the Li family's elders made her not know whether to cry or laugh.

"Wenwen, don't think so much. You won't have Li Fang in your future. Let go of your heart and enjoy your life. Come on, let's start the New Year's Eve dinner." Seeing her niece in a daze, Xu Runting patted her pitifully shoulders.

"It's time to eat, it's the Chinese New Year!" Li Yiran's happy voice sounded, no matter how smart she was, she was only less than nine years old, and the clouds cleared away as soon as the sadness passed, and the sun returned to her body. .

Xu Hanwen patted her face, and patted all the unhappiness away, car accident, rebirth, meeting Zhang Lin again, divorce, house purchase, moving, Li Fang's death, and reconnecting with Zhang Lin... These half a year of life can be described as wonderful There are many things in the past, such as dying today, and all the things in the future start from today, grasping today's happiness, and flying the future life.
