Reborn at 90, taking space to counterattack and become rich

At around 7 o'clock in the evening, the whole family sat around the round dining table to eat together.

"Chengyu, go and set off the firecrackers." Hu Qian directed.

The banker's ancestral home is in the Eastern Province, and he has always retained the habit of setting off firecrackers before eating during the New Year.

Crackling - as soon as the firecrackers went off outside the house, Zhuang Chengyu ran back immediately.

"This year's dish is tough enough!" Zhuang Chengyu saw the crab bigger than his face and was curious: "Why is this crab so big?"

Song Xu replied: "Uncle Zhuang, this is a king crab. It only exists in the deep sea."

"No wonder!" Zhuang Chengyu nodded and sighed: "I have lived for more than forty years, and this is the first time I see this thing."

Zhuang Jianfei pointed to some seafood dishes on the table and said: "Our current economic environment is better. In the past, even if you had money, you wouldn't be able to buy this thing."

The reform and opening up of the market economy has completely revitalized everyone's consumption.

"That's right. In the past, when I made a coat during the New Year, I had to plan to use the cotton. To buy a bicycle, I also needed industrial coupons. Most people can't get it."

Mr. Cheng nodded and recalled: "Don't talk about the things in the sea. It's just pork, beef and mutton. Many people can't eat it."

"It seems that the decision made above is really correct. This market economy has improved our living standards."

The younger generation sitting at the table listened carefully to the words of the two old men.

The atmosphere was a little serious and dull for a while.

Hu Qian raised her wine glass and said with a smile: "We are celebrating the holiday today, and that's enough for you two to reminisce about the bitterness and sweetness! Our country will get better and better in the future!"

"Yes, yes, where is this?"

Zhuang Jianfei quickly raised his glass and said with a hearty smile: "From now on, we can all afford and eat everything that flies in the sky and runs on the ground!"

“Then let’s have the first glass of wine this year to celebrate our great motherland’s growing prosperity!”

Mr. Cheng stood up and said in a loud voice: "You young people must study hard and serve the motherland in the future, do you understand?"

"Cheers to the motherland——"

Everyone stood up, clinked glasses, and said grand blessings.

Then, Hu Qian suggested that everyone say a New Year's message.

As the male host, Zhuang Jianfei was naturally the first.

"I just talked about some big wishes, now I'm going to talk about small wishes."

After scanning the people present, Zhuang Jianfei looked at his son first: "I hope that in 1997, Chengyu, you will work hard and make progress, fight crime, and make our city safer. Care about your loved ones, take care of your children, and make Huihui happy."

Zhuang Chengyu stood up and clinked glasses: "Thank you, Dad. I will definitely work hard."

"The second cup is for my lover, Ms. Hu Qian, to thank her for always taking care of me and this family. Without her, I would probably have to eat steamed buns during this New Year's Eve dinner. Thank you, my lover."

Hu Qian smiled from ear to ear, stood up and clinked glasses with her husband generously: "Thank you, Comrade Zhuang Jianfei. I will continue to work hard in the coming year and strive to take good care of you and the members of this family!"

After Zhuang Jianfei, Mr. Cheng and Zhuang Chengyu said New Year's messages in turn.

When it was Xia Chutang's turn, she first paid respects to the elders in her family and expressed her gratitude and blessings.

"Song Xu." Xia Chutang held up the cup and turned around, saying, "I hope you can find your brother in the coming year. Everything will go well, safely and happily in the future."

Two days ago, Song Xu told Xia Chutang about Song Taiming's "evil deeds", which made her angry and distressed.

In addition to feeling sorry for Song Xu, she also remembered the child who was given away by Song Taiming.

After all, they were brothers from the same mother. Xia Chutang felt that the child should be found.

If he lives a good life, then of course it would be best.

If his life is not good, Song Xu now has the strength to help him, and at the very least, this "brother" can live a life of food and clothing without any worries.

Song Xu picked up the wine glass and touched the girl's wine glass, then raised his head and drank it all: "Tianbao, having you by my side is my greatest happiness."

"Song Xu——"

Xia Chutang raised her head and stared at the man in front of her, and said seriously: "Me too."

Seeing this pair of affectionate confessions, the elders all laughed.

Xu Cang and Cheng Jiaxuan poured themselves wine in tacit agreement and drank in silence.

Wang Xia quickly ate two prawns to calm down her shock.

If you don’t eat it anymore, you won’t have to eat it later!

Looking at the delicious food on the table, Wang Xia thought to herself: Classmate Tangtang, can you stop spreading the dog food! She's almost full! Woohoo.

Everyone chatted while eating, and when a circle of people finished saying their New Year's messages, several people were drunk.

Zhuang Chengyu tried his best to teach Doudou Girl, and the noisy child was woken up by his beard when he fell asleep, crying loudly.

"I'll help Chengyu lie down for a while." Li Hui was helpless.

Before going upstairs, Li Hui told her daughter: "You are going out with Song Xu later, so be careful."

Thinking of the disgust between the two of them just now, Li Hui directly ordered: "No matter how late it is, you must go home. You are not allowed to spend the night outside!"

"I know!" Xia Chutang immediately guessed what her mother was wary of.

When Li Hui went upstairs, Song Xu whispered in the girl's ear: "Aunt Li is like guarding against thieves, who are you looking down on!"

If he wanted to have something with Xia Chutang, would he wait until now?

No matter how much he wants to eat the summer candy, he will restrain himself and wait until the wedding day.

This is his respect for the girl he likes.

Xia Chutang chuckled and replied: "That's because my mother saw that you were up to no good!"

"Tsk - Tianbao, if you talk like that, then I won't be a gentleman anymore." Song Xu warned with narrowed peach blossom eyes.

"I really don't see that you are a gentleman."

"Then let me show you what my villain looks like?"

"go--"

Because Song Xu and Xia Chutang were going to the nightclub, the dealer made dumplings in advance.

Xia Chutang invited Wang Xia, Cheng Jiaxuan, and Xu Cang to play together, but unfortunately all three refused to go out.

Cheng Jiaxuan pulled Xu Cang and said he wanted to drink, while Wang Xia said she wanted to help Hu Qian make dumplings.

The last ones left were Xia Chutang and Song Xu.

The two of them went to the hospital first carrying the "New Year's Eve dinner".

The ward has been decorated, with window grilles and blessing characters posted everywhere, creating a New Year atmosphere.

The Lu family are all in the ward tonight, celebrating their thirties with Lu Chengyuan.

"Oh, thank you so much!"

Cheng Sumei was moved when she saw the dozen lunch boxes and steaming dumplings brought over: "I'd like to trouble you to make a trip on New Year's Eve."

"Aunt Cheng, this is what we should do!" Xia Chutang said with a smile.

Song Xu put down his lunch box, pointed to the door and said, "You guys chat, I'll wait for you outside."

Knowing that the Lu family didn't like him, Song Xu took the initiative to leave, leaving space for a few people.

Mrs. Lu's eyes were sore and her heart was even more sore.

Holding Xia Chutang's hand, her eyes filled with tears: "If you and Cheng Yuan had not separated, you would definitely be engaged by now..."

Xia Chutang: "..."

"Mom, it's all in the past. Tangtang is on good terms with Song Xu now, don't say this." Cheng Sumei reminded.

Mrs. Lu didn't want to mention it, but due to this situation and the special time today, she just couldn't help it: "We Chengyuan are just stupid. Hey——"

"Grandma Lu, don't be angry with me."

Xia Chutang could understand the complaints in the old lady's heart. She went over and squatted beside the hospital bed and said obediently: "Lu Chengyuan was trying to save someone who was injured. I think he will get better soon."

"I'm not angry with you."

Every time Mrs. Lu saw this fair and fair little girl, she felt fond of her and sighed: "I just think it would be great for you to be with our Chengyuan."

Xia Chutang: "..."

Xia Chutang couldn't answer the old man's words and could only laugh in embarrassment.

Seeing the girl and not talking to her, Mrs. Lu said earnestly: "Speaking of which, from the first time I saw you, I felt familiar. It's like you, this girl, should be Chengyuan's girlfriend. But I don't know why. , you two can’t make it…”

Seeing that the old lady was getting more and more outrageous, Cheng Sumei quickly interrupted: "Tangtang, you and Song Xu have something to do, right? Then go and get busy."

Xia Chutang also took advantage of the situation and hurriedly said goodbye: "Then I'll take the first step. Aunt Cheng, Uncle Lu, and Grandma Lu, I wish you a Happy New Year in advance."

Before leaving, the girl looked back at the man on the hospital bed.

Even in a coma, Lu Chengyuan's excellent appearance and facial features could not be blocked.

"Lu Chengyuan, the new year is coming, wake up."

Cheng Sumei took Xia Chutang to the elevator, turned around and went back to the ward when she heard the old lady shouting: "Nurse! Doctor! Our Chengyuan's finger moved!"
