the longest dream

Chapter 532 Red Packet
"Ouch! Ouch!"

It was dusk when the convoy arrived at the Jiaofang Palace, but seeing the splendor of the entire palace city illuminated by thousands of palace lanterns, one could have a clear view of the magnificence of the palaces of the Qin and Han Dynasties.

People who had never been here all gasped in amazement, even Gu Weihong and the others didn't see thousands of palace lanterns shining when they came last time.

Li Suzhi led Sun Yuehe, Qi Juan and others to greet her, and naturally there was a lot of excitement when everyone met.

Especially seeing a group of people wearing Hanfu, Meng Jie and the others were almost overjoyed.

Liu Ping and Li Suzhi knew each other very well, so she said without hesitation, "How do you make it look like an opera singer?"

Gu Weihong gave a "tsk" sound, and denied: "How lively! You have to wear a suit and a white dress to call it a wedding?"

Meng Jie agreed: "This is so interesting!"

Qi Juan hooked her thumb to Zhang Qing, and said with a smile: "He said, if our wedding can make relatives and friends feel fun and happy about it, that is our best reward for everyone!"

Jin Xing scratched his head and smiled, "No wonder someone took our measurements. I thought they were going to make suits for us."

Qu Qing stepped forward, looked at Qi Juan and said happily, "You are too beautiful! Where is the more beautiful one in your house?"

Qi Juan hehe: "I have been assigned far away, and I have been warned half a year in advance that I must stay 30 meters away from me today!"

Everyone laughed.

Zhang Lan looked at her mother with a strange face, and Sun Yuehe was a little shy, and said softly to her daughter: "Go away!"

Sun Yuehe was still able to stand up, and said with a smile: "You are all distinguished guests, Qingzi's nobles. Our whole family is grateful for being able to attend his and Juanzi's wedding."

A group of aunts were a little surprised, but they still laughed and said, "Mother Zhang Qing, you're welcome."

Sun Yuehe said happily: "Everyone go inside, it's still cold outside. It's warm inside, the ground is high, and you can see far!"

This simple hospitality made everyone laugh again, but it felt cordial.

In fact, except for a few elderly people, most of them are slow-witted.

Taciturn, he rarely speaks in daily life, and the words he speaks are not beautiful or pleasant, but every word is as important as a thousand pounds.

Sun Yuehe herself is just a peasant woman, but who made her son named Zhang Qing.

Gu Weihong glanced at Li Suzhi who was smiling at the side, and sighed secretly, this is the difference between giving birth to a daughter and giving birth to a son...

However, there is nothing to sympathize with. If she can have such a son-in-law, she will recognize it!
The balance in the best friend's heart is gradually returning to the right track...

Meng Jie was startled when she saw a group of Han Dynasty court attendants carrying their shoulders. It is taboo to use people as sedan chairs.

Gu Weihong helped to recount the economic remarks, and said that these people have lived a good life because of this, so everyone was relieved.

Meng Jie reminded Zhang Qing: "Your status is unusual now. Others can sit, ordinary people can sit, but you can't. Those of us who can climb stairs can climb stairs by ourselves."

Zhang Qing said with a smile: "Aunt Meng, let's climb up the hundred and ten steps in our twenties. The aunts should sit down. The Chinese New Year is only two months away. Let them earn more money for the Chinese New Year. The children add new clothes. You don’t need to carry any psychological burden. There will be more and more foreign tourists in the future. Before they come to sit in the car, they have to check the scale in advance and collect money by the catty!”

Everyone couldn't help laughing, and Qiao Yue said angrily, "Weight is a personal privacy in foreign countries. Who will put it on the scale for you to weigh?"

Zhang Qing shook his head and said: "It's very simple, they can see it when they are on the scale, and the cost will be settled in the tip afterwards."

Kong Li questioned: "Then they will pay less?"

Zhang Qing said with a smile: "They will not be too stingy when they travel. Besides, people who can travel across the country still need some face."

Ten years later, those bastards who came to China to cheat on food, drink and girls still don't take China seriously, and they can't afford a cross-border ticket.

The group had nothing to say, each prepared a tip of five yuan, and sat down for a while.

This income, let the bearers thank you again and again.

If every guest can be so generous, next year they can go home and repair the small building...

"Wow! So magnificent!"

After Qu Qing got on the high platform, she looked around. Not far away, there were many palaces and palaces in the Qin Palace covering an area of ​​[-] mu. For a moment, it seemed that she had really traveled through a thousand years and returned to ancient times.

Meng Jie looked at the two rows of lacquer tables in the Jiaofang Hall, on which were placed lacquer plates, ear cups, lacquer cups, bamboo chopsticks, etc., and laughed again, saying: "The preparations are really complete, and it is really interesting."

Qi Juan asked, "Aunt Meng, why didn't Miaomiao come?"

Meng Jie regretted, "I should have brought her here to play, but it's a pity that Miaomiao was picked up by her aunt."

Qi Juan smiled and said: "Forget it, let's take it and play next time. Let Yanyan bring her here, she likes Yanyan anyway."

Meng Jie laughed loudly and said, "Are you still jealous? Don't be jealous, I brought you some good things this time." Then, she took out a paper bag from her bag and said, "Inside is a letter written by our old man. In other words, after the old man retired, he has been living in seclusion, mostly in Pengcheng, far away from the center. Not to mention the weddings outside, even the weddings of his own children, he rarely gives any gifts. But for you and Zhang Qing, he is serious. I like it."

Qi Juan and Zhang Qing stood up and took it, Zhang Qing said: "Aunt Meng, it's so precious!"

In the spring of [-], Gu drew a circle on the South China Sea and created a special economic zone that shocked the world.

And it was Mr. Xue who really started to make arrangements.

At the end of the 80s, after Mr. Xue retired, he lived in Pengcheng for a long time and did not care about world affairs.

Meng Jie said with a smile: "The old man also brought a sentence, I hope you can continue to go on steadily, become good partners in life, study, and work, and make progress together."

Zhang Qing and Qi Juan bowed in return.

Meng Jie took out another box and said with a smile: "This is a gift from Uncle Xue and I. It's a watch I gave him back then. It's not worth much. He only knows how to work and doesn't know how to give gifts, so I suggest He gave this watch to Zhang Qing..."

Zhang Qing still wanted to say that it was too expensive, but Qi Juan had already picked it up, opened it and helped him put it on, and said with a laugh: "This is good, this is good!"

On the side, Gu Weihong whispered to Li Suzhi with a little sourness: "When did Zhang Qing and Juanzi get along with her family so well? The steel company and the shipping company are fine. It is said that the old Xue family is kind, let's see how good he is."

Li Suzhi said softly: "Her family is the most low-key. Besides, she didn't deliberately try to make friends. It just so happens that those industries are suitable for deployment there. Okay, didn't you say that her family is about to be transferred, why are you jealous. Look. How high-profile the Qiao family was before, how many people laugh at him now."

Gu Weihong thought about it too, and laughed...

……

December 31.

Early in the morning, Zhang Qing took the convoy to the airport to pick up all the relatives from Xijiang.

"Grandpa, you and grandma can really bear it, why don't you come here until today?"

Inside the RV, Zhang Qing looked at Sun Qingshi and Zhao Juxiang and said with a smile.

The eldest concubine, Li Yun, said loudly, "Your grandparents will not enjoy their blessings!"

The second concubine, Liu Xiu'e, was resting on the sofa. She was a little airsick, and now she smiled and said, "Qingzi, your grandfather said that it's uncomfortable to live in a place where it doesn't snow or get cold in winter, and there isn't even a kang."

Zhang Qing laughed and said: "Then next year we will go back to Xijiang for the New Year, and I also miss the snowstorm at home, as well as milk tea and boiled meat."

Uncle Sun Mantang leaned on the sofa and said with a smile: "I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to stay at home for a long time when you go home. Don't talk about you. I'm working in the countryside now, and I'm being dragged out for a drink. Either from this county, or Those from that city are all older officials than me, and it’s hard to push. I never thought that I could get so much credit from my nephew.”

My second uncle, Sun Yuantang, also laughed: "When I go out to eat now, I don't know who paid the bill. Anyone who knows me or not, they all come up to say hello. People from the village and county come to inspect and ask me every day, why don't you go to your nephew?"

Zhang Qing hurriedly said: "Second Uncle, are you coming? You can also bring a decoration team."

Sun Yuantang is a man from all over the world and has a wide range of friends.All three religions and nine streams can become friends, and they all like his character. Kazakhs, Uighurs, Huis, and Tajiks, all ethnic groups have very good friends.

Even if such a person came out, he would be able to flourish.

However, Sun Yuantang still refused: "I live so comfortably at home, why should I go out? If it weren't for your two sons, your parents would not want to go out. How can we be better than our Xijiang?"

Zhang Qing continued to laugh, and then heard his elder cousin Sun Fusheng suddenly ask: "Qingzi, I heard that Wei Qiang went to pester Haiping again?"

Zhang Qing was startled, seeing his family members staring at him, he knew that someone must have called home again, so he smiled and said: "It's okay, I don't know where I found the phone and called, Sister Haiping is not stupid. My mother taught me a lesson last month. Sister Haiping understands. Don’t worry, is Wei Qiang still worthy of our attention today? It means that the law protects him, otherwise he will be good fruit to eat."

Sun Fusheng said: "It's not that I'm afraid of him, but the family is afraid that Haiping will lose his head again like before, and turn back."

The elder sister-in-law Li Yun sneered and said: "She dare not! Now she lives with her aunt's house and lives in front of the palace. She is not obedient, so go back to Xijiang directly, let her go to live in Wei Qiang's family's rotten mud nest, See if she's getting used to it or not!"

Sun Haijiang said with a smile: "Ma'am, I was afraid that Wei Qiang would lose his mind from drinking, so I coaxed sister Haiping to take him to Pingjing..."

Zhang Qing said with a smile: "Okay, you are still fighting! He really dared to come to Pingjing. I will send him to Siberia to plant potatoes."

Everyone in the family laughed. At this time, Sun Qingshi took out a big red seal from his pocket. Judging by the size and thickness, it might be as much as [-]. saved up.

Sun Qingshi handed it to Zhang Qing and said, "Take it. Any of your friends outside has a leg hair thicker than our waist. We don't compare with them, but we must have more heart than them."

The old man made a start, and the uncle, uncle, and even Sun Fusheng and Sun Haijiang began to take out red envelopes.

Zhang Qing said: "I will accept the red envelopes for sure, but I can't give so much, right? If Grandpa, Uncle, Second Uncle, and Brother Fu Sheng are willing to come out to do things and make a lot of money, they can take [-] to [-]. They are exhausted every year now. If you work hard, you may not be able to earn so much. How can you get so much at once?"

Sun Qingshi smiled and said: "Your uncle and second uncle made a lot of money by pulling sand from the battlefield. In addition, your mother often subsidizes us, and gave me and your grandma to give money to our children during festivals and festivals." What use is that money for us, isn’t it just a subsidy for them?”

Sun Mantang laughed and said, "Father, you subsidized Fusheng to buy a car yourself, but you didn't subsidize it to me. This money was saved from selling six cows...Qingzi, put it away quickly, why don't you think it's too little?"

Li Yun also said seriously: "We didn't tell you how much money you spent on so many children. Now that you are married, of course you have to show your heart. I know you don't lack this, but you can't afford the elders' heart." No. Put it away!"

Zhang Qing nodded, put away the red envelopes one by one, and said with a smile: "All the money has to be put in the bottom of the box, it was given by grandparents, uncles, and concubines."

Everyone laughed happily. In a family, love is the most important thing.

Holding the red envelope in his hand, Zhang Qing recalled how his relatives helped his family in those years.

There have been too many changes in the past few years, but this family relationship has never changed. He is really happy, very happy...
