Chapter 24: happy New Year

Chapter Twenty Four
Xie Ning is a year after returning to the compound.
Uncle Zhong smiled when he saw him: "The old man is looking forward to your coming."
While talking, he took his luggage over: "Last time you asked Wu Shu to bring the snowflake pastry, the old man liked it so much, he had to taste that piece every day, and he was afraid that it would be gone after eating too much."
Xie Ning smiled: "Grandpa loves to eat, I will buy more in the future."
"The old man you give me loves to eat." Uncle Zhong sent his luggage to the room. "This room is cleaned every day. No matter which day you come, you can live anytime."
Xie Ning said: "This time I will live in the new year... Where is Grandpa? Have you gone out?"
Uncle Zhong sighed: "I just fell asleep. It was cold in the past two days, and the old man is not in good health. I woke up in the middle of the night and didn't fall asleep. I was sleepy after having lunch today.
Xie Ning: "Then don't bother him, let him sleep more."
Uncle Zhong nodded and smiled so that the wrinkles on his face were squeezed into a ball: "The old man must be happy to see you when he wakes up!"
Xie Ning glanced at the room, the furnishings in the room remained unchanged, exactly the same as when he moved out.
The pots of unknown flowers that he kept on the balcony also stretched their branches and leaves in the winter sun, and they were well taken care of on weekdays.
Uncle Zhong watched Xie Ning hang his clothes in the closet, and then watched him put a rabbit doll on the bedside, and smiled: "I don't know that Young Master likes this?"
Xie Ning was stunned, he didn't know how to bring it.
When packing up, I always feel that I can sleep comfortably at night only with this rabbit doll.
"It's cute, but it's a little small." Uncle Zhong said, "a plush doll, it needs to be a bit bigger to be comfortable to hold."
Xie Ning thought for a while and said, "I like this."
Xie's family has a weak heir. Father Xie has only two sons, Xie Zun and Xie Jing. Grandma Xie Ning never married again after her death.
After the two sons got married, they moved out one after another and had another residence, but they all went back to the compound during the Chinese New Year and spent time with Father Xie.
On New Year's Eve, Xie Ning's parents and his uncle's family rushed back to the compound one after another.
The New Year’s Eve dinner is prepared in the kitchen. Xia Wan and Xie Zun’s wife Su Jinyan are sitting on the big sofa in the living room, making dumplings while chatting.
Making dumplings is a unique activity for the Xie family during the New Year. The skins and fillings are prepared in the kitchen early in the morning. They just need to make them.
Even the old man Xie also focused on participating in the package, and put a copper coin in one of the dumplings.
Whoever eats copper coins at the New Year's Eve dinner is blessed.
"Where did Ningning go, why didn't I see him all day?" Su Jinyan raised her chin and smiled at Xia Wan.
Xia Wan was slow to pack, frowning at this moment, and said, "Stay in the room. This kid is just bored and likes to be alone."
Su Jinyan said: "It's good to be quiet. Our house is always fussy. We often play outside until midnight before going home. Let him come back early. He said it was a social entertainment at work and could not be pushed away."
Xia Wan knew that she was showing off her son in secret, twitched the corner of her mouth, smiled not really sincerely, and did not answer the conversation.
Su Jinyan also said: "The relationship between you and Ningning is still cold? I said that there is no deep hatred between your mother and your son. He is stubborn, so you will be soft, and what can't be done."
The smile on Xia Wan's face stopped.
She frowned, "Sister-in-law said, I haven't been subdued enough for these years? He likes men, should I smile to see him go down this wrong path?"
Su Jinyan advised her: "Same-sex marriage has been legal for so many years, how come it's wrong?"
Xia Wan Lengran: "Look at the people around you, how can anyone marry the same sex? I stopped him for his own good!"
"Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren." Su Jinyan's tone became worse when she saw her like this, "What are you worrying about?"
Xia Wan raised her eyebrows and looked at her, and said, "It's not your son, so you don't worry about it. If Xie An likes men too, don't you stop it and accept it easily?"
Su Jinyan was choked by these words, and said with a sigh of relief: "He is an adult. As long as he doesn't commit murder and break the law, he will decide everything else. Of course I respect his wishes."
Xie An has had several girlfriends and her sexuality is straight. Su Jinyan never worried about this issue.
Xia Wan sneered in her heart.
Easier said than done.
Who didn't know that Su Jinyan urged Xie An to get married every day, and hoped that he would have children sooner, so as to inherit the Xie family's large estate.
Now he respects his wishes one by one. If Xie An is really with a man, she is afraid that she will be the first to turn his face.
On New Year's Eve, Xia Wan didn't want to make a faceless mess with her, but she didn't have any interest in gossip. He stood up in a sullen expression, "Sister-in-law, you wrap it up first. I'll see if the chicken soup in the kitchen is stewed."
Su Jinyan saw her like this, turned around and complained to Xie Zun.
Xie Zun couldn't laugh or cry: "Why are you poking her heart like this? It's their family's business, you are just worrying about it."
Su Jinyan snorted: "The old man's heart is too biased towards Xie Ning, 10% of the shares, without discussing with us, directly transferred to Xie Ning, we are working hard in the company Anan For so many years, feelings have been working for Xie Ning."
Xie Zun knew a little bit more than Su Jinyan, and shook his head: "This is my dad making up for Xie Ning. You know, the old man was afraid that I would fight with Xie Jing, so he assigned Xie Jing to the south to start a business, Xia Wan I took Xie Ning with him. The old man and this little grandson only met so many times in a year, thinking in his heart, and Xie Ning is in the south..."
He paused, did not go on, and turned to say: "Xie Ning knows nothing about things in the market. The father didn't want to train him at all. No matter how much he prefers, he is only his love for his grandson. Xie An is his heir."
Su Jinyan responded: "Our family An'an is already outstanding."
Xie Zun said: "When the old man is here, you should pay attention to your words. Don't irritate Xia Wan. She can't solve this problem. Let's not mix up. Everyone has a good year."
Su Jinyan was told a lesson by him, and nodded reluctantly: "I see."
Thanks to the old man in town, this New Year's Eve dinner was fairly harmonious.
Xie Zun took the lead, and everyone stood up and said two greetings, and wished Father Xie a happy new year.
After Xie Ning finished speaking, Aunt Rong came over with dumplings, and gave everyone a few bowls: "These are all made by everyone, and I am full of blessings."
Xie Jing poked a dumpling that was about to spill out of his bowl, and said, "This must be made by Xia Wan."
Xia Wan cast his head and glanced, stretched out his hand to pinch the meat on his arm, and twisted it: "If you dislike it, give it to me."
Xie Jing said hurriedly: "Don't dislike it, I eat, I eat."
Father Xie smiled and watched them make a fuss, but there was a bit of family joy.
Xie Ning took a bite of the dumplings in his bowl, and suddenly his teeth were knocked by something stiff.
It looked like a stone, but when I looked down, I found it was a copper coin.
Old man Xie smiled and said: "This copper coin that I wrapped, you have eaten this year."
Everyone followed Yinghe: "Good omen!"
Father Xie said, "Ningning, this is a blessing, and there will be a happy event in the coming year."
Xie Ning also smiled with everyone.
For some reason, he suddenly thought that meeting Zhuang Yan would be a happy event for him.
...
It snowed again on the night of New Year's Eve.
A thin layer of snow also accumulated on the edge of the window sill. Xie Ning lay by the window and watched the scene of heavy snow for a while.
The temperature difference between indoor and outdoor is too large, and a layer of fog is filled on the glass windows, which seems to blur the scenery outside.
The phone rang, and Xie Ning saw that Zhuang Yan had sent a photo.
He repeated the old tricks and piled up a snow rabbit, but this time the rabbit was relatively small, probably only the size of a cup.
Zhuang Yan: The snow is not big enough today, I can only make a small one for you, do you like it?
As a director, photography is a basic skill for Zhuang Yan. Even if it is a photo taken with a mobile phone camera without any filter, both the composition and the picture are impressive.
In the photo, the Snow Rabbit was held in his palm, and behind it was an inverted word fortune on the wall.
Xie Ning: The rabbits are not piled very well, the photos are taken very well.
Zhuang Yan's message came back quickly: I want to hold Mr. Rabbit in my hand.
Xie Ning flushed unknowingly as she watched these words.
He sighed slightly and returned an ellipsis to Zhuang Yan.
Shaining:...
Zhuang Yan: You haven't answered me yet, do you like it?
Xie Ning: ...I like it.
He looked at the photo, suddenly put down the phone, and sketched on the misty glass window with his fingers.
Shaining's basic skills are solid, and in a few strokes, he drew a blue whale.
Fearing that the fog on the windowsill would dissipate quickly, he quickly took a photo and sent it to Zhuang Yan.
Zhuang Yan didn't expect to receive such a return, so he laughed, his heart softened.
Zhuang Yan: Do you want Mr. Blue Whale to jump in from your window sill?
Shaining:...
Zhuang Yan: That might be a bit difficult.
Xie Ning: You think too much.
Zhuang Yan: Although you didn't ask, I still want to say that I also like your gifts.
"Ningning!" Before Xie Ning could reply, a shout suddenly sounded behind him.
He turned his head subconsciously, before the smile on his face could be restrained: "Grandpa, why are you here?"
Father Xie looked at him and smiled: "You are in a daze again, what are you thinking about, so happy?"
Xie Ning shook her head: "Just chatting with a friend."
Father Xie uttered a loud voice, and instead of asking, he handed over a document.
Xie Ning reached out to take it, and saw the title on the cover, surprised: "This is..."
It is a house purchase contract.
Mr. Xie asked, "I heard that you moved to the Lakeside Villa recently?"
Xie Ning: "Yes."
Father Xie said again: "Although it is a good place, the villa is too big, and you don't like too many people in your family. Living alone, there is a huge space, and it seems too lonely."
Xie Ning just shook his head: "I live well."
Mr. Xie said that the temperature is mild: "This house is a single-family house. It is not as small as a bachelor apartment or as big as a lakeside villa. It is very suitable for couples or couples. This is a New Year gift from Grandpa."
Xie Ning quickly said: "Xu Qing and I have broken up."
"The old ones don’t go, and the new ones don’t come." Father Xie smiled, "I didn’t like that guy from the Xu family, he was too frivolous. Grandpa doesn’t mind you like a man, but he doesn’t agree with you being with him, he and you. Ah, not a person of the world."
Xie Ning's expression moved slightly.
Over the years, he used Xu Qing, his boyfriend, to reject the blind date Xia Wan arranged for him. Father Xie has never expressed his opinion. It was the first time he knew that Father Xie was not optimistic about Xu Qing.
Mr. Xie went on to say: "Whether you like men or women, I don't have any opinion on the old man. I just hope that our family Ningning can find someone who truly likes you and is worthy of your liking, and spend this life happily."
Xie Ning's nose was sore by him, and he gave a soft hum.
"This house is prepared by me for you and your future lover." Old man Xie smiled. "It's not crowded for two people, and there will be no space for one person. The location is very good, the transportation is convenient, and there is no space between them. There is a shopping mall far away, and I can’t find a better place in the whole city. Just accept it."
Xie Ning looked at Father Xie, only feeling warm in his heart: "Thank you, Grandpa..."
"Family, why do you want to thank you?" Father Xie smiled and shook his head. "Your father was sent to the south by me just two years after you were born. Your mother is worried and has to follow. Although I want to take you Raising by your side, it’s not easy to break up your family of three..."
Father Xie sighed as he spoke, his eyes narrowed: "It would be nice if I had left you at that time. After so many years, our grandpa and grandson will be able to see each other during the New Year."
Xie Ning lowered her head and said, "It's all in the past, am I returning to you?"
Father Xie nodded: "The past, since it has passed, I won't mention it."
Xie Ning looked at the house purchase contract in his hand, but hesitated: "This gift is too expensive, my cousin..."
"Where is it valuable." Father Xie knew what he was worried about and said, "An An's New Year gift is a car, a limited edition worldwide, and he likes it. I wanted to buy one for you, but I remembered that you haven't tested it yet. After passing the driver’s license, I changed to this house. I don’t favor each other."
Xie Ning felt relieved and accepted this New Year gift.
During the conversation with Father Xie, the phone continued to vibrate several times.
Xie Ning opened it and took a look. Zhuang Yan sent a few more photos over. He seemed to be out of the house and took several photos of the snow scene late at night.
Xie Ning inexplicably felt that a few sceneries were particularly familiar.
Zhuang Yan: Are you celebrating the New Year in the compound?
Xie Ning: Yes.
Zhuang Yan: My grandfather also lives in the compound. He and Father Xie are fishing friends.
Xie Ning was taken aback: A fishing friend?
Zhuang Yan: Well, friends who were fishing together, they had an appointment to go fishing two days ago.
That's it.
Before Xie Ning could return, Zhuang Yan soon sent another message: I am celebrating the New Year with Grandpa today.
Xie Ning opened her eyes slightly, that is to say...
Zhuang Yan: I am also in the compound.
Zhuang Yan: It seems to be pretty close to you.
Zhuang Yan: Are you going out to see me?
Xie Ning: It's so late...
Zhuang Yan: It happened to be together for the New Year.
Xie Ning was holding the phone, but he moved slightly.
Zhuang Yan said again: It's too late if you don't want to meet.
Zhuang Yan: Mr. Blue Whale cannot jump in from your window sill, but he has already walked to your door.
Xie Ning was surprised:! ! !
He subconsciously looked out the window to the gate, but was blocked by the trees in the garden.
Zhuang Yan: I am waiting for you.
When Xie Ning recovered and walked to the gate in a daze, he found that he was holding his phone tightly, his heart beating as fast as he was about to jump out of his chest.
Outside the gate, Zhuang Yan was covered with snowflakes and put his hands in his pockets. In the interweaving of falling snow and cold wind, he curled his lips and looked at him.
He was smiling, his eyes shining brightly like stars.
"Happy New Year, Ningning."
The author has something to say: 　　 I think I am writing a fairy tale about the blue whale and the rabbit.
