"Qianqian, your fourth brother asked you to go to Dijiang for an internship during the New Year, and then follow Secretary Wu to learn." Old lady Shi said kindly to Shi Qianqian.
Shi Qianqian's surprise was hard to conceal. Although she was not worried about her future employment after graduation, she did not expect it to go so smoothly.
"Thank you godfather, thank you brother four." Shi Qianqian thanked him again and again, his face flushed, and he didn't hide his happiness and excitement at this time.
Shi Chengxuan glanced at the old lady Shi who was almost smiling from ear to ear, then moved his gaze to Shi Qianqian and raised his eyebrows slightly.
Probably because Shi Chengxuan was obedient, and then the father and son became okay.
According to the rules of the Shi family, New Year's Eve vigil until 12 o'clock, and get up at 5 o'clock the next morning to worship the ancestors. Old lady Shi is going to bed after twelve o'clock. As for young people, most of them don't go to sleep, and stay up until the next morning, and then rest after the ancestor worship.
Finally at midnight, Old Lady Shi sent the prepared red envelopes one by one, and Aunt Xu helped them to rest. Shi Chengxuan was dragged aside to play cards by several cousins.
A few of the Shi family's female relatives sat down to chat and watch TV if they were more familiar, and sat aside doing their own things.
Shi Qianqian was just like Shi Chengze said. Although she was liked by the old man, none of the Shi family's female relatives had any affection for her, and no one was paying attention to her.
Wang Yue was the same as her, but those people ignored Wang Yue because she was not on the stage, and they seemed to lose their share of the conversation.
Wang Yue didn't care about this at all. He stuck to Shi Chengze all night, playing cards, she peeled grapes and handkerchiefs nearby, and even prepared tea for several people at Shi Chengze's table. Seeing that they were almost drinking, they went to the kitchen and took a snack to pad their stomachs.
Because it was so confusing, even though everyone felt that this woman was a little worse, she still smiled a little on her face.
Shi Qianqian stared at Wang Yue all the time, seeing her tossing and tossing pretendingly, like a maid, while feeling ashamed of her, at the same time there was a hint of secret envy in her heart.
She couldn't help but glanced at the table next to Shi Chengxuan. Of course, Wang Yue would not forget the others, but the table was full of things that Shi Chengxuan didn't touch.
Shi Qianqian hesitated for a while, driven by that little secret thought in her heart, went into the kitchen, and soon she brought out a cup of hot milk.
"Four brother, drink some warm and warm stomach." Shi Qianqian put the hot milk on the empty table in front of Shi Chengxuan and called him softly.
"Yeah." Shi Chengxuan replied, did not look at her or refuse.
Upon seeing this scene, Wang Yue tickled the corner of his mouth and looked away.
For the next few hours, Shi Qianqian glanced at the card table from time to time. The cup of hot milk was always there, no one looked at and no one touched it until it got cold.
It was almost four o'clock, several men from the Shi family got up one after another and went to wash their faces to find food. The women have fallen asleep on the sofa, and the TV is still on. I don't know which channel is rebroadcasting the show. The gongs, drums and firecrackers are blasting in the sky, which is also very lively.
The card game broke up, and Shi Chengxuan got up and went outside.
As soon as the door opened, cold air poured in instantly. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, instantly waking up a lot.
He walked out the door, lit a cigarette, did not smoke, and held it in his hand. Not long after, Shi Chengze, who had just washed his face, also came out. He was holding a tray of melon dumplings in his hand, and he asked vaguely as he ate, "Would you like to eat, my Xiaoyue made it."
Shi Chengxuan shook his head. With the light of the lantern at the door, he clearly saw that the melon dumplings were actually quite delicate, and he casually praised, "The craftsmanship is good."
"That is." Shi Chengze looked quite honorable, "Xiaoyue's craftsmanship is not so good."
Seeing him dancing with joy, Shi Chengxuan flicked the ashes on his hand, "Speak, what can I do?"
The two brothers can't say a few words throughout the year, but compared to Shi Chengen, this second brother is more knowledgeable about current affairs, and his attitude is naturally much gentler.
He has never been too embarrassed for those who are interested.
"It's not a big deal." Shi Chengze swallowed what was in his mouth, "I heard that Dad arranged Qianqian to your company?"
"Ok."
"Can you also arrange one for me by the way and find a more leisurely position. Xiaoyue has a younger sister, who is quite honest and shouldn't cause trouble." Shi Chengze asked.
"What trouble can a child cause?" Shi Chengxuan smiled. "When you turn back, you can tell Secretary Wu and let him arrange it."
Shi Chengze also laughed. He looked back at the brightly lit hall and said casually, "Dad hadn't planned this two months ago. I don't know why Qianqian suddenly got into his eyes. Now even that girl. All of his clothes were made by a tailor with Dad."
Shi Chengxuan's tone was light, "I'm getting older, and I think it's all I want, just follow it."
Probably, Shi Chengxuan's reaction was too calm. Shi Chengze couldn't help but glanced at him, and sighed inwardly. Perhaps only he himself knew what they were thinking.
People, sure enough, you still have to be confident, so you don't care about those things, for them, the big things are just small things.
Like him, there is a turmoil in the house, he must carefully study whether it will involve himself.
Even if you are a idle dude, at least you have to think about it.
All that should be said was finished, Shi Chengze did not leave either, he took the phone out of his pocket and handed it to Shi Chengxuan, "Look at my son, does it look like me."
Shi Chengxuan glanced at the photos on the phone. The child was not too old, wearing a red robe, grinning with a toothless smile, which was quite cute. The child's eyebrows are really more like Shi Chengze, but the skin is whiter, obviously following his mother.
"It looks like, what's it called?"
Shi Chengze paused, "I haven't thought of a name yet."
Shi Chengxuan was also silent. The so-called not thinking about a name is not that he really didn't think about it, but the old man probably didn't plan to recognize the child.
Of course, it doesn't matter if you want the surname Shi, but as long as it is not recorded in the genealogy, you will only be an illegitimate child, and Shi Chengze obviously does not want this.
He had previously agreed to include Shi Qianqian in his genealogy, but he actually wanted to test the old man a little bit, hoping that he would think of his son by the way. Unfortunately, the old man didn't mention it at all.
The same is from grandchildren, Shi Chong is already that virtue, the old man still remembers in his heart, but his son did not even look at it.
"Children can't always be without a name. Rather than relying on others, it is better to find a way by themselves."
"What can I have..." Shi Chengze said halfway, and suddenly stopped, he patted his head and suddenly grinned.
