So you're not really happy

Chapter7 Chinese New Year

On New Year's Eve, Shen Zhi'an and Wei Ling got up early, because there were a few more people, and the Shen family was extraordinarily lively this year. Early in the morning, Grandma Zhao went to the kitchen to make dumplings. People in H City are used to eating dumplings during the New Year. "Geng Sui Jiao Zi" means trying to please a good fortune in the new year.

The yard is full of snow, Shen Zhian loves to play, so naturally he will not stay in the house honestly, put on his gloves and run to the yard to make a snowman, Wei Ling was staying in the house to watch the old lady Zhao cut the window grilles, but Shen Zhian yelled at him anxiously He pulled it out with a roar.

The snow had stopped, Shen Zhian stepped on the snow, and there was a "creaking" sound under her feet, she stepped on it again, and a footprint appeared in the snow.Shen Zhian likes snow very much, rubbing a big ball of snow happily.

With a "snap", Wei Ling was hit by a cloud of snow just as he came out, and Shen Zhian's laughter came from behind him.

Wei Ling looked back, Shen Zhian was standing not far away, still holding a snowball in his hand, looking at her with a smile, while Wei Ling was recovering, Shen Zhian threw another snowball over, this time Wei Ling hid , The snowball brushed past his face, Wei Ling licked the corner of his mouth, and even tasted the smell of snow, it was cool and icy.

Wei Ling took a deep breath, then squatted down and rolled the snowball. When Shen Zhian saw it, he immediately ran away with a smile, for fear that Wei Ling would retaliate against her.

In the room, Mrs. Zhao and Granny Zhao were together, and Granny Zhao said with a smile: "Madam, it hasn't been this lively for a long time!"

Mrs. Zhao's eyes were soft, she stared at the children playing outside the window, she couldn't help sighing: "Yes! I'm old! It's not lively anymore!"

…………

At noon, Shen Zhian's aunt came, bringing her two young sons with her. She was dressed brightly, with heavy makeup on her face, sent the children to the servants, sat on the sofa unceremoniously, and examined the whole family. After the circle, I greeted Shen Lifeng: "Brother, you are really lively this year!"

When Shen Lifeng saw her, he was a little surprised: "Why are you here today?" In the past, Shen Wenjia would go back to her mother-in-law's house with her husband.

Shen Zhi'an's aunt scolded: "Hey! You don't welcome us yet! Then we came at a bad time!" She made a gesture to walk towards the door.

Shen Lifeng was helpless: "It's Chinese New Year, what are you doing!"

Shen Wenjia laughed, and when she turned around, she saw Mrs. Zhao coming down the stairs. With a thoughtful expression on her face, she stepped forward and said, "Why is the old lady celebrating the New Year here this year? Why don't you go back to your old house to spend the rest of the day?" year!"

The old lady Zhao said in a bad mood: "I spend the New Year with my granddaughter, isn't it just to take care of the rest of the year, and it's hindering you!"

Shen Wenjia smiled and said: "Of course you are good, but ah! You mother-in-law, you have to give my uncle some free time. My brother can't keep guarding Xiao'an in the future!" Somewhat ugly.

Shen Lifeng who was at the side heard it, and felt bad, so he quickly pulled Shen Wenjia aside: "What are you talking about? Mom is here, don't hit the big ones!"

Shen Wenjia twisted her body, stared, and said dissatisfiedly, "I see."

Shen Lifeng turned around and said to Mrs. Zhao: "Mom, please ignore her, she's just like this!"

The old lady Zhao said coldly: "You also think Xiao An has delayed you, don't you? I can take Xiao An back to celebrate the New Year!"

Shen Lifeng immediately supported her on the sofa, and said: "Mom, what are you talking about? I'm not too happy that you can come here in time. No matter what delays, it's all a matter of nothing."

Seeing her younger brother calling each other "Mom" affectionately, Shen Wenjia was annoyed and went upstairs to play with her sons.

Shen Wenjia has one daughter and two sons. Her eldest daughter went to high school. Today she went to grandma's house with her father. The two younger ones are two years younger than Wei Ling. They are very naughty, but they are very much loved by Shen Wenjia. These two sons are able to boss around at the mother-in-law's house.

Shen Zhi'an took Wei Ling to play with plasticine in the house. Both of them were wearing cheerful new clothes. When he saw his two cousins ​​also came, he immediately looked disgusted and dragged Wei Ling to play with other things. The two boys It was the naughty age, seeing Shen Zhian ignore them, dismantling the toys lawlessly, one of them even scribbled with Shen Zhian's paintbrush.

With a "wow", a bottle of watercolor paint was splashed out, and the table and the ground were covered with paint. Shen Zhian glanced at this side, was suddenly startled, and immediately got up, and then saw that the painting on the table was more than half wet. The painting was exactly the picture of the snow scene drawn that day, and it took her all morning to finish. The paper was already covered with watercolor paint, and the colorful colors were very ugly. Looking at the two culprits again, one was tearing off her Oil pastels, another upside down paint box, Shen Zhian's heart was filled with anger instantly, she pushed the cousin who was closest to her hard, and opened her mouth to curse: "Get out! Don't touch my things!"

The two children were startled, and the one who was pushed on the ground threw the things in his hand, and burst into tears with an "Aww", while Shen Wenjia opened the door and came in, just in time to see this scene, and immediately stepped forward to hug his son , yelling at Shen Zhian reproachfully: "Xiao An, how can you bully your brother! How do you behave as a sister?"

Shen Zhian couldn't get angry, so he said to his aunt coldly: "I don't know how to be a sister, you can find someone who can do it, you are not welcome in our family!"

Seeing her attitude like this, Shen Wenjia was annoyed, and opened her mouth to curse.

At this time, there was a movement at the door: "What's the matter? It's so noisy, what happened?" It turned out that Mrs. Zhao and Shen Lifeng also heard the noise.

Suddenly, the room was in chaos, and Wei Ling stood there quietly without speaking. Seeing Shen Zhian's angry look, the old lady Zhao probably couldn't ask anything, so she had to ask Wei Ling beside her what happened.

Wei Ling glanced at Shen Zhian, found that the other party was also looking here, and replied firmly: "Just now these two younger brothers damaged Xiao An's paint and ruined these paintings. Xiao An was angry and pushed his younger brother. That aunt wronged Xiao An. Bullying my younger brother." Wei Ling's tone was neither overbearing nor humble, and his thoughts were clear, and everyone present immediately understood.

It was only at this time that Shen Wenjia noticed Wei Ling. Although she knew that Wei Ling was fostered in the Shen family, she only took a quick look at it. To be honest, she felt that Wei Ling was as unfavorable to her as Shen Zhian. Although Shen Zhian was beautiful , but like her short-lived mother, she has a willful temper and makes trouble for no reason.

And this Wei Ling, at first glance, must have followed her mother's appearance, with a standard foxy face, pointed chin, big eyes, and helping Shen Zhi'an everywhere, let alone her liking, and immediately treated Wei Ling cruelly. She gave her a hard look, but Wei Ling didn't look at her.

Shen Wenjia comforted her son, and said: "Hey! We came here with great difficulty, and we were bullied, and my little uncle didn't help you, so we went home after dinner. Really, I see! We are here It's not as good as an outsider!" Shen Wenjia glanced at Wei Ling deliberately, and the word "outsider" was very clearly pronounced in his voice.

Wei Ling stood silently against the wall, and after hearing Shen Wenjia's words, she knew what she meant, so she immediately raised her head and glanced at her.

Wei Ling's eyes were gloomy, and the piercing cold light was fleeting. Before Shen Wenjia could see clearly, Wei Ling instantly returned to his usual indifference.

In the end, Shen Lifeng smoothed things over: "Okay, I'll buy the paint later, and I can paint again in the future, it's no big deal..."

*********************

Shen Zhian felt very uncomfortable because the painting was destroyed, and seeing his aunt's complacent appearance made her feel sick again, let alone having a happy meal. After going upstairs to rest, Wei Ling was quietly pulled into the kitchen by Granny Zhao after she finished her meal. Granny Zhao gave her a plate of mung bean cakes and asked her to bring them to Shen Zhian, for fear that Shen Zhian would be angry and hungry.

Wei Ling went upstairs, stood still at the door of Shen Zhian's room, knocked on the door lightly, and Shen Zhian's muffled voice came from inside: "Come in."

Shen Zhian was sitting on the bedside reading a book, and Wei Ling could recognize it at a glance. The book in Shen Zhian's hand was the one that fell out of Ms. Yang's bag that day. Wei Ling still remembered that he stuffed it in with his own hands.

Seeing that it was her, Shen Zhian raised his head slightly, saw the plate in her hand, glanced at the contents on the plate, licked his lips, and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Wei Ling said: "Grandma asked me to bring you something to eat." As he spoke, he moved the plate in his hand forward, and the mung bean cake exuded a refreshing and sweet fragrance, which penetrated into Shen Zhian's nose, Granny Zhao's craftsmanship has always been very good Shen Zhian's appetite.

Shen Zhi'an put the plate on the cabinet, turned to Wei Ling and said, "How about we eat together?" As he spoke, he couldn't wait to take one.

Wei Ling shook his head and said, "I'm full." After speaking, he sat next to Shen Zhian, not intending to leave.

Shen Zhi'an was not embarrassed either, but handed her the book in the other hand, and asked inarticulately: "Do you know how to read? Why don't you read to me!"

Wei Ling nodded and took the book. This book is very old, and there are some scratch marks on the corners, but the writing looks very clean and tidy. It can be seen how much the owner loves it. Wei Ling opened the title page of the book and saw the There is also a message: "Dedicated to my baby, Shen Zhi'an." The handwriting is beautiful, small and neat, and Shen Ling guessed that it should be from Shen Zhi'an's mother.

Soon, a childish and pleasant voice came from the room: "When I was six years old, I saw a beautiful picture in a book..."

…………

In the study, Shen Wenjia was questioning Shen Lifeng: "Why did you resign my cousin?"

Shen Lifeng asked back: "Where is the cousin? Why don't I know?"

Shen Wenjia wanted to match Miss Yang and Shen Lifeng wholeheartedly, seeing Shen Lifeng's appearance, he couldn't help but get angry: "Don't pretend to be stupid! You are a good person, you can't give more snacks!"

Shen Lifeng was even more impatient, and he didn't bother to mention those annoying things, he just said: "What's the matter! Can you stop making trouble for me? Don't introduce anyone here in the future, someone will take care of Xiaoan's study!"

Shen Wenjia said angrily: "I think you have good intentions and treat yourself like a donkey!" She paused, and then said: "The old lady is really not angry that you have another child? Can Xiao An really stay with that child?"

When Shen Lifeng heard her mentioning this matter, he became overwhelmed: "Don't worry about it! I'll send you back later!"

Shen Wenjia saw that her younger brother avoided talking about it, and persuaded him earnestly: "Who am I doing this for? Don't you worry about you if you don't go home on New Year's Eve? You are over 40, so you don't want to marry another one? Want a son? What will happen to the family business in the future?"

Shen Lifeng always didn't like her mentioning this, so he immediately retorted: "What should I do? Don't you have Xiao An? What kind of son do you want?"

Shen Wenjia saw that her younger brother was so persistent, so she couldn't say anything, so she kept saying, "How can I do without a son? Can Xiao An succeed? Besides, what Wei Ling, she is..." Shen Wenjia paused, and then said: "How about , I will adopt Xiao Lin to..." Before Shen Wenjia finished speaking, Shen Lifeng interrupted her: "Don't! You can keep Xiao Lin for yourself, I have Xiao An as long as I have! Don't come here all day long This way, I don't plan to have any more children, so don't keep stuffing me here." After saying that, he went to the housekeeper and arranged for the three of them to be sent home.

Xiaolin is the youngest son of Shen Wenjia. She wholeheartedly hopes that her younger brother has a son who can inherit the family business. After all, the Shen family has finally expanded, and the parents under the nine springs must be at ease. Relatives in the Shen family rarely move around. Shen Wenjia is an old feudal family, and before she died, she wanted Shen Wenjia to look after her younger brother, hoping that there would be successors in the Shen family. Unknowingly, Shen Wenjia also had such thoughts, and she thought, she also has a son, so why not inherit one for her younger brother and inherit the family in the future? He can support himself better at his in-law's house, but it is a pity that Shen Lifeng doesn't take this kind of thing at all. Since his wife passed away, he has been working except for work. He is usually busy with socializing, and sometimes he can't even go home.

In the afternoon, Shen Wenjia and her two children finally went back, and Shen Zhian was also very happy. When he called Qin Xin to celebrate the new year, Qin Xin kindly reminded her: "Have you finished your homework? You have to collect it at the beginning of school!" Shen Zhian was so angry. Hanging up the phone with a "snap", it's really the pot that doesn't turn on and which pot to pick up.

The night of the New Year's Eve soon ushered in, even though it was a bit unpleasant, but overall it was not bad. Grandma Zhao prepared a large table of dishes, and the Shen family gathered for a meal, which was quite lively.

In the evening, following his resignation, Shen Zhian first kowtowed to the old lady Zhao, and then gave her his own New Year's gift. It was a painting with three members of Shen Zhian's family, Wei Ling and the old lady Zhao, and even Granny Zhao. After painting it, it can be seen that Shen Zhi'an also put a lot of thought into it, Granny Zhao watched from the side with a smile, and even Shen Lifeng, who usually had a serious face, couldn't help showing a smile.

The old lady Zhao liked it very much, she quickly hugged Shen Zhian into her arms, and said distressedly: "My little grandson, why is it so painful!"

Compared to Shen Zhian, Wei Ling didn't prepare anything. After kowtowing to the old lady Zhao, she was a little at a loss. The old lady Zhao knew that she had only been here for a few days, so there was no need for her to prepare anything. He took her into his arms with a smile, touched her head and said, "It's okay, it's a New Year's gift for Xiao Wei Ling to come to our house, and grandma will be satisfied with getting along with Xiao An in the future!" Holding Wei Ling's hand together, Wei Ling looked up and saw Shen Zhian staring at him piercingly, so he curled the corners of his mouth and nodded.

After dinner, the housekeeper of the Shen family brought a box of firecrackers and fireworks for children to play with from nowhere. Seeing this, Shen Zhian happily jumped three feet high, and quickly asked the housekeeper to light the fireworks for her, while she held a small one in her hand Shake and play.

With a "wow", a bright spark shot out from the firework stick like a bamboo pole, and the yard lit up instantly. Wei Ling stood at the door, looked up at the colorful sea of ​​flowers in the sky, and watched the fleeting fireworks. Lost mind...
