Chapter 238 Two People's New Year's Eve
Since the 90s, the way people celebrate the Spring Festival has gradually changed. In the past, every family went home to make dumplings for the New Year (a northern custom). Later, buying quick-frozen dumplings gradually became a habit. The semi-finished family set meal sells quite well, and then it has become a new fashion to eat New Year's Eve dinner in restaurants and restaurants.During the Spring Festival last year, if many restaurants and restaurants did not make reservations in advance, they would not even be able to eat. This year is no exception. Fortunately, Zhao Haiguang has already made reservations.

In the afternoon of New Year's Eve, Zhang Lexing and Chen Zishan drove to the restaurant where Zhao Haiguang had made a reservation for the New Year's Eve dinner.In fact, Zhang Lexing was not very willing to participate in this kind of occasion before. Every time he saw other people's family enjoying themselves, he would feel sad secretly. After meeting Chen Zishan, he gradually got better. Although he was still a little uncomfortable, but Already restrained very well.

This New Year's Eve dinner was basically a family banquet. Because of Chen Zishan's request, there were not many people attending. Except for her parents, only Zhao Haiguang and his girlfriend Qiao Xiaohui were eating casually at the round table. Exquisite dishes, casual chatting, no one deliberately persuading people to drink, no pressure, no status considerations, only a touch of family warmth, even Zhang Lexing, who doesn't love the Spring Festival, seems to be in a good mood .

After the New Year's Eve dinner, the sky was getting dark. After everyone broke up at the entrance of the restaurant, they each drove away. Zhang Lexing also drove Chen Zishan to his villa.

Along the way, Chen Zishan didn't speak much, she lowered her head and seemed a little depressed, Zhang Lexing asked with concern while driving, "Shanshan, are you alright?"

"It's okay, really." Chen Zishan raised her head, with a smile on her face: "It's just that I haven't been home for the Spring Festival for the first time, and I feel a little indescribable."

"I'm sorry, it's all to accompany me, which makes it difficult for you."

Chen Zishan heard the apology in Zhang Lexing's words, and hurriedly leaned over to kiss him on the cheek, and comforted him: "Lexing, you don't mind, I actually want to come to accompany you."

Zhang Lexing let go of the gas pedal under his feet, and slowly parked the car to the side of the road, then turned to look at Chen Zishan affectionately, and said, "Thank you, Shanshan."

After finishing speaking, Zhang Lexing moved his face closer, and gently pressed his lips on Chen Zishan's moist lips, unwilling to let go for a long time...

The car drove into the villa area. Except for the gate and the street lights on the road, at least half of the villas were in darkness. It is said that most of the homeowners went to the warm south for vacation. Compared with the lights on in their own villas, they looked very Obviously, it's like a lighthouse in the sea.From time to time, patrolling security guards passed by on the road, and when they saw Zhang Lexing's car driving in, they would stop and salute.

When I drove the car into the garage of the villa and parked it, and walked into the living room on the first floor, it was already seven twenty in the evening.Because of the Spring Festival, Ma Guanghai, who was usually inseparable, was sent home by Zhang Lexing. Of course, out of safety considerations, eight bodyguards were left in the villa to protect him in shifts.It was still early, Zhang Lexing and Chen Zishan went upstairs to wash up, changed into pajamas and slippers, then went to the entertainment room on the second floor, turned on the big-screen TV, and prepared to watch the annual Spring Festival Gala.In fact, Zhang Lexing had watched the Spring Festival Gala many times over the years, and had long since lost interest. However, it was the first time for Chen Zishan, so he had no choice but to watch it with him.

"Lexing, have you bought the China Radio and Television News? It seems that there is a program list for tonight's show." Sitting on the sofa, Chen Zishan suddenly remembered something related to tonight's show.

Zhang Lexing thought for a while, he seemed to have bought the newspaper, but he couldn't figure out where to put it for a while, touched his nose, and he had an idea: "Why go to the newspaper if you want to see the program list, I have a better one." idea."

"What idea?" Chen Zishan asked curiously.

"Wait a minute." After Zhang Lexing finished speaking, he got up and walked to the desk next to him, and brought over the IBM ThinkPad 770 placed on it. The 14.1-inch color screen, plus the built-in DVD drive and Modem, all of these make this machine It is quite heavy to carry.

After moving the snacks and drinks on the coffee table in front of the sofa to make a space, he put the ThinkPad770 on it, and Zhang Lexing pulled the phone line over and connected it to the built-in Modem of the laptop.Turn on the computer, start the dial-up connection, enter the account number and password, log in to the Internet, and then Zhang Lexing habitually hangs up ICQ.

"Le Xing, is that what you're talking about?" Chen Zishan pointed at the laptop in disbelief.

"That's right. When I was reading the newspaper two days ago, I seemed to see that China Central Television will open an official website during the Spring Festival this year. I guess there should be a program list on it." Zhang Lexing explained.

"Oh, then hurry up and take a look, it's almost eight o'clock." Chen Zishan urged repeatedly.

"Okay, no problem." Zhang Lexing habitually wanted to open the search engine first, and then he remembered that there were no really useful search engines in China at this time. Of course, this may have something to do with the scarcity of domestic websites. Fortunately, he still remembers the central The domain name of the TV station.Enter the domain name into the address bar, and after waiting for a while, the website of CCTV opened. Although it is a national-level TV station, from Zhang Lexing’s point of view, the design of the entire page is as simple as a personal homepage. Fortunately, "1998 The words "Special Topic for the Spring Festival Gala" are still very eye-catching. Zhang Lexing moved the mouse and clicked, and the little globe on the browser started to spin again.

The entire topic includes several columns such as "New Year's Gala News", "Review of Wonderful Moments", "Spring Festival Gala Program List", "Spring Festival Gala Introduction", and "Gala Hotline". Most of the "Spring Festival Gala News" is related to the Spring Festival Gala. The press release, what is the preparations for the Spring Festival Gala, the collection of New Year greeting cards and mascots, the opening of a new venue this year, the interview with the female director Meng Xin, and even the tidbits of the preparation stage of the party.Zhang Lexing didn't pay much attention to these contents, but Chen Zishan was quite interested, so she took the mouse and clicked to watch.Fortunately, there wasn't much content. After Chen Zishan hadtily read it, there were still 2 minutes before the party officially started at [-] o'clock, which was just enough for Zhang Lexing to call out the program list of the party.

While watching the program list, the screen on the TV screen changed, and a group of animated characters flashed, and tonight's program officially started.There was still warm applause, and then accompanied by a burst of cheerful and auspicious music, a bunch of big tigers and little tigers rushed onto the stage. The opening song and dance "Welcome to the Spring Festival" kicked off the prelude to today's party.Chen Zishan didn't care about continuing to study the program sequence on the laptop screen, so she picked up a pack of snacks, leaned back, and concentrated on watching the program.

After several group singing and dancing, Yan Shunkai walked onto the stage with big bags and small bags, and began his adventures on the side of the road, the story of worrying about a hundred yuan bill, and of course Jiang Xiaohan dressed as a student, interesting The plot made Chen Zishan lean forward and backward with joy.

"Sister Xin, happy Chinese New Year! I wish you eternal youth..."

"Old Mai, Happy Chinese New Year!"

"Bill, Happy Chinese New Year!"

"Steve, Happy Chinese New Year!"

……

At the same time, Zhang Lexing was sending new year greetings to his friends on ICQ, because there were many friends, except for Yang Xinxin’s, he was too lazy to think about it, so he simply copied and pasted it. Then change the name.The blessings sent by Zhang Lexing received a response very quickly. Those who understand the customs of the Spring Festival naturally also sent blessings, and some people who did not understand the situation and received somewhat inexplicable New Year blessings, such as Gates and Ballmer For foreigners, I have to trouble Zhang Lexing to explain what Chinese New Year is.For some friends who are not on ICQ, Zhang Lexing logs into his mailbox and sends an electronic greeting card with "good health" or "happy Chinese New Year" to them, which is considered to be a fashionable and environmentally friendly blessing.

Seeing Zhang Lexing sending ICQ messages and e-cards in full swing, Chen Zishan also came over curiously to have a look. She had already seen a lot of ICQ chats, and it was the first time she saw an e-card, so she pestered Zhang Lexing to say hello After a while, when she realized that as long as she had an email address, she could receive an e-card, she forced Zhang Lexing to send her the most beautiful e-card, and then she was satisfied and continued to eat snacks and watch TV.

Zhang Lexing will occasionally look up at the TV so that he can chat with Chen Zishan about the more interesting programs in the party, such as "Meet Nine Eight" by two big sister singers Faye Wong and Na Ying, such as Uncle Zhao and Aunt Gao who are still very young, Very stylish Lao Fan greetings and so on.

"Brother, your life is over. You have been resting for a few days. Your elder sister and I have to go to work today. It's painful!" Yang Xinxin sent a paragraph, and finally matched it with a crying emoji.

"Sister Xin, didn't you rest today?" Zhang Lexing asked curiously.

"You forgot, we don't celebrate the Spring Festival here, but there are a lot of Chinese employees in the company, so we will have a holiday at noon today, but many people have taken annual leave and have already rested. Pity the shareholder of my company, During the Chinese New Year, I have to work for you, my brother, the major shareholder, and I don’t even have to rest." Yang Xinxin joked: "Brother, you have to give me a big red envelope!"

"Sister Xin, I've given you a luxury yacht. Then you can take your people to the Caribbean for vacation."

"Lexing, Sister Xin took good care of us before, please say hello to me!" At this moment, Chen Zishan interjected.

Zhang Lexing nodded, and entered on ICQ: "Sister Xin, Shanshan also sends hello! I wish you..."

"Thank you. Since you are so generous, brother, sister can't be stingy anymore. When you two get married, sister will give you a small plane so that you can travel around the world."

……

Chatting and watching TV, Chen Zishan might be a little tired, she fell down and lay on her side on the sofa, with her head resting on Zhang Lexing's lap.Seeing Chen Zishan's curled up legs, Zhang Lexing patted her lightly, then leaned his body as far as possible so that she could straighten her legs, and then asked with concern: "Shanshan, is it cold? Don't cover the bed with a quilt?"

Chen Zishan waved her hand and refused, "It's okay, I'll just lie down for a while, and I'll get up later."

Zhang Lexing had no choice but to end the chat on the laptop as soon as possible, sit up straight, try to make Chen Zishan lie down comfortably, and then chatted with her while watching the TV screen boredly.Chatting and chatting, Chen Zishan's voice gradually lowered, and by the time Aunt Zhao came out in a Kung Fu costume, she had completely calmed down.Zhang Lexing looked down, Chen Zishan put one hand under her head, her feet curled up at some point, she fell asleep like a kitten, her long eyelashes moved gently with the rhythm of her breathing.

Afraid that Chen Zishan would catch a cold, Zhang Lexing took the thin quilt that was placed on the low cabinet next to the sofa, covered her gently, and then carefully tucked the corners of the quilt, making sure that no legs, feet and body were exposed, and then put it down Xinlai continued to watch TV boringly.

After a long time, the time gradually approached zero. On the TV screen, Zhao Zhongxiang and Ni Ping began to say these sensational words excitedly. Many cast members also came to the stage and stood up one after another according to the plan. In the voices of the two, they quietly looked forward to The moment has come.The clock was ticking, and gradually the hour, minute, and second hands all overlapped together, and the zero o'clock bell rang on the TV, but Zhang Lexing couldn't hear it clearly, because the sound of firecrackers from outside the house was even more deafening. It doesn't matter much through the closed glass windows.

Chen Zishan, who was asleep, was also awakened by the loud noise. She sat up, looked around in a daze, and asked, "Le Xing, what's wrong?"

Zhang Lexing put his arms around Chen Zishan, kissed her on the lips, and said, "Happy New Year, Shanshan!"

"New Year's Eve." Chen Zishan woke up a little bit, and then she jumped up and said in a hurry: "It's already past midnight, let's go to set off the fireworks!" As she said, she pulled Zhang Lexing's hand straight away, wanting to go out immediately it is good.

Zhang Lexing said dumbfoundedly: "At least, let's change our clothes."

Chen Zishan looked down at her clothes, smiled embarrassedly, then turned around and ran out of the entertainment room, Zhang Lexing had no choice but to follow.After changing their clothes, the two came to the yard of the villa and moved out the fireworks they bought a few days ago from the utility room.

Chen Zishan picked two gypsophila from the inside and lit them with a lighter, and then she kept gesticulating with each other while running around the yard.Under the sky full of fireworks, Chen Zishan and the sky full of stars flying in her hands flashed in front of Zhang Lexing's eyes. Her expression was happy and innocent, just like a child who got a toy.

Infected by Chen Zishan's happiness, Zhang Lexing also picked out a beaded tube from the pile of fireworks with great interest, lit it and raised it high with his hands, "Tom... tom... tom...", one shot after another Fireballs of different colors flew out of the bead tube, rushed upwards with a strange light, and joined the fireworks display in the sky. The New Year is here...
