Chapter 310 Spring 2023 (1)

This Spring Festival Chen Mo is not happy, he has a lot of preoccupations, there are two reasons, one is Zhou Rong, and the other is work.He didn't know how to get along with Zhou Rong in the next year, should they still be together or separate?In fact, he already had the answer in his heart, but he couldn't let go of Zhou Rong's kindness to him, and he couldn't bear to hurt Zhou Rong.

There is also his job, and what he should do in the next year. He will continue to stay in BJ to find a job, and he will still face a life without passion and innovation every day, and he will still be unhappy, and even more painful.Or simply leave BJ directly, change a city, and start a new life.And he already has the answer in his heart in that city, there is his own house there, he can live peacefully in his own house in the future, he can buy a big bookshelf, and he can sit in front of the bookshelf to read and write at night.

He has always been thoughtful, but he is unwilling to tell anyone what he thinks in his heart, especially his mother. Since his father passed away, Chen Mo has become more mature and grown up, but he will never solve anything that he can solve by himself. I didn't tell my mother, so that my mother wouldn't worry about me anymore.What's more, even if he told his mother these thoughts in his heart, what could his mother do?Apart from adding unnecessary troubles to the mother, nothing can be solved.Over the years, he has also gotten used to not relying on others for anything, but relying on himself to think and solve it.

Looking back on Chen Mo’s experience in BJ these years, from the decision to go to BJ on the eve of graduation in 2015, to the trial and swing between the Internet and the pursuit of media dreams, and his experience of changing jobs nearly ten times, alone Traveling by car to XZ, as well as his ups and downs emotional experience, all the decisions he made in the past seven or eight years have never been discussed with anyone, he is a lonely brave man, a person who has always followed his own heart .

He never discusses what he wants to do with others, and never tells others about the suffering and trials he has suffered. He can resist all the joys and sorrows in this world by himself. He is so lonely, so brave, and so Firm and proud.

But he doesn't show his face on the surface. The so-called city mansion means that you don't show your inner emotions on the outside, so that others can't see the magnificence in your heart.On the night of New Year’s Eve, the paralyzed grandma was still bedridden, while Chen Mo and his mother were preparing dumplings in the kitchen. The customs and traditions of the family for many years.Chen Mo obeyed his mother, walked around and returned home quickly, and cooked dumplings with his mother. After the dumplings were cooked, he made a few bowls out of a small bowl. According to the custom, he had to offer sacrifices to the spirits of the dead ancestors, and then the mother and son served them together. With dumplings and paper money, burn paper money and kneel down to the gods and ancestors in the yard.

After a busy trip, Mother Chen made a few plates of dumplings. Because grandma couldn't go to the ground, the three of them ate dumplings in grandma's house. To save trouble, Mother Chen didn't even put a table, so she simply put the dumplings on the kang , three people sat on the kang with bowls and ate dumplings.

Chen's mother suddenly burst into tears, feeling that there is one person missing in this room, Chen Mo noticed the abnormality of his mother, and couldn't help feeling sad in his heart.Fortunately, the mother and son were able to control their emotions, but this dumpling, which is the most important thing in China, was tasteless.After eating the dumplings, throw the dumpling bowl into the pot. According to the customs in the countryside, on the evening of the New Year's Eve, no sweeping the floor, no washing the dishes, no housework.

In Chen Mo's memory, every New Year's Eve night, other people's homes would have a New Year's Eve dinner, and the family would cook a rich New Year's Eve dinner, with big fish and meat on the table.But Chen Mo's family does not have this tradition. The so-called New Year's Eve dinner is just the dumpling meal just now. In Chen Mo's 31 years of memory, there has never been a New Year's Eve dinner.This is probably passed down from his grandma's generation. Grandma and grandpa's family was poor at that time. Let alone the New Year's Eve dinner, it would be good to have a meal of dumplings on New Year's Eve. What else do you want for a New Year's Eve dinner?So up to Chen Mo’s generation, there has never been a New Year’s Eve dinner. Although life is better now and the New Year’s Eve dinner is affordable, habits are habits after all. The older generation has no habits passed down, and the new generation does not have this idea. Going to prepare, since Father Chen passed away, even this New Year's Eve dumpling is eaten so casually.

Chen Mo vowed in his heart that when he gets married, has a wife and children, and celebrates the New Year with his mother, he must cook and cook New Year's Eve dinner every year. And the next generation changes.

On the night of the New Year's Eve, Chen Mo thought about the tears his mother just shed, looked at the deserted room, and recalled that a few years ago, there were father and sister in this room.Then the younger sister got married, and there was one less person in the family.Two years ago, my father passed away again. In the huge room, only my mother, myself, and my grandma who was paralyzed on the bed were left.The past came to his mind, and he couldn't help feeling sore, and he suddenly felt so lonely.In the past, no matter how much his father quarreled with him, urging him to get married and have children early, as long as his father was there, this family would always be a complete family, but now that his father passed away, this family was no longer complete.

He suddenly felt very tired, physically tired, and mentally tired, but he could only bear these tiredness alone, and in the morning he had to kneel down to worship his ancestors and ask God.He got up too early, so he couldn't help feeling drowsy. He didn't have the mind to watch the Spring Festival Gala, and fell asleep before ten o'clock. Perhaps only sleeping can make him forget all the troubles in his heart.

Of course, he didn't send a message to Zhou Rong, saying anything like Happy New Year, how could he have that kind of thought.

On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, Chen Mo woke up, and there was a message from Zhou Rong at midnight on WeChat: Happy New Year.

He looked at Zhou Rong's news and was at a loss.

He is like a coward, not daring to face Zhou Rong.And like a fugitive, escaping everything about Zhou Rong.

In the first few days of the first lunar month, Chen Mo went around to pay New Year's greetings. When those relatives and friends asked about his work and his girlfriend, he pretended to be nonchalant and answered eloquently. Li is really guilty, because he told others that he is now working in Baidu. As for his girlfriend, he still talks very well, and someone even asked, I heard you got married on May [-]st.Chen Mo asked suspiciously, who did you listen to, others answered, listened to what your mother said, Chen Mo simply broke the cans and smashed the cans, and used all the tricks, yes, get married on May [-]st, when the time comes, you all come to drink my wedding wine.

And when he returned home, he didn't say a word to his mother about the rumors that he was getting married on May [-]st.

As long as mother is happy, as long as everyone is happy, it doesn't matter what you say about me or what you think.For those who celebrate the new year, I will no longer quibble or explain anything. Anyway, what I say is playing the piano with the cow, so I will let all of you cheer and pass the year smoothly.That's what Chen Mo thought in his heart. Before this, he had never thought so.
