Chapter 92: Let's go set off fireworks~

Gu Chen looked at the startled Lao Wang and couldn't help but laugh.

'Uncle, it's not that good. This is just the beginning. I just write casually.'

Hearing Gu Chen say this, Lao Wang didn't care about the beef bone that he hadn't finished chewing yet. He hurriedly looked at the paper, and the more he looked, the more he couldn't help but praise.

'Not that I'm saying it, but your handwriting is really not bad. It looks like the way I wrote when I was young. Where did you learn to write like this? In the past, I said I wanted to teach you, but you refused to learn. This kid...'

Gu Chen smiled, 'Mr. Li from the village gave me the copybook, and I practiced after it. He was my master!'

What a good liar.

Gu Chen didn't feel anything about it. Lao Wang couldn't possibly go ask Mr. Li, could he?

Lao Wangtou nodded, then looked carefully at the characters written by Gu Chen, nodded with satisfaction, and said, 'Tsk, good, not bad, really not bad.'

He knew since childhood that Gu Chen was a smart child.

It was just that for a few years, he went astray, did not attend to his proper duties, and also broke off contact with him.

You see, it's only been a few years since we last saw each other, and he can already cook and write well. This is called the prodigal son returning, and that's priceless!

In another two years, I'm afraid he'll be flying high and become a phoenix.

Gu Chen nodded, as long as Lao Wang was satisfied.

'Well, that's fine, I'll write you some more. I'll go back now, my family is waiting for me to eat.'

Lao Wang nodded, Gu Chen had really helped him this time!

'Good, good, Chenzi, you're a good boy, really good. Uncle Wang doesn't have much in this life, but I have a good eye for people, and I've never been wrong!'

The more he thought about it, the more gratified he was. He had seen Gu Chen grow up from a little boy to the man he was now.

He had watched him grow up, get married, and now he was so capable.

Old Wang was truly happy.

After writing the eulogy, Gu Chen returned home. Everyone had started eating by now. There was no way to stop them, the hotpot was really delicious.

They simply could not wait for Gu Chen to return.

Only Ji Pianran, who had not eaten a single bite, was alone.

Seeing Gu Chen return, she hurriedly stood up and walked towards the kitchen.

Gu Chen grabbed her hand and curiously asked, 'Where are you going?'

She had only just entered the door and had not even had time to sit down, so why was she going out?

Ji Pianran blinked, 'I'll go to the kitchen and get you some chopsticks.'

How can this person eat without chopsticks?

With their hands?

When I was little, people used to say something about hand-grasped rice, but they must have never eaten hotpot!

Otherwise, it would just be a fresh braised pig's trotters, with vegetables added!

On hearing this, Gu Chen smiled.

There was a hint of happiness in his smile.

He had to say, it really felt good to be missed.

Seeing that her father had returned, the little girl hurriedly brought her own small bowl and said, 'Daddy, the meat, you eat!'

Everyone was scrambling for it just now. Don't look at Tang Tang being small, she has a lot of ideas.

If they all finish eating it, there won't be any left for Daddy!

She wants to save it for him!

Gu Chen looked at her daughter's cute appearance and petted her head over and over, 'Tang Tang, eat, there's plenty more.'

'Chen-zi, I really admire you. If I had your cooking skills, my wife would smile in her sleep, and my parents wouldn't have to worry so much!'

Gu He muttered as he stuffed meat into his mouth.

He really admired Gu Chen now. She cooked well, was rich, had a beautiful daughter and a well-behaved daughter.

They were both born of the same mother, so why was there such a big difference?

Fan Xiaoli gave Gu He a cold stare and couldn't help but speak up.

'You're not the only one who knows. I'm not saying it, but Chen is the youngest but also the most capable! Mom and Dad, you've raised the right person!'

For some reason, Gu Chen always felt that there was something else behind Fan Xiaoli's words.

But it was the New Year, and he didn't want to argue about it.

At this moment, Ji Pianran had already taken the new chopsticks from the kitchen and walked in.

She handed Gu Chen the chopsticks in her hand, and then sat down. Without saying a word, she placed a large bone in Gu Chen's bowl.

'Eat it while it's hot.'

Gu Chen felt warm in his heart, and nodded, 'Okay.'

After that, he took a big bite out of the fragrant beef bone.

To be honest, the bone that his daughter-in-law had picked up for him really did taste good!

There was still a lot of meat on the large bone. They had deliberately chopped it open after buying it. The marrow inside was delicious and delicious, not to mention how good it tasted.

Everyone ate a lot at dinner that night. After dinner, they cleaned up the dishes and the family sat together in the living room, caught up in a brief moment of boredom.

The countryside was not like the city, and many people did not have televisions at home.

Once it got dark, there really wasn't much to do.

It's only in recent years that we've had radios and tape recorders, so we can listen to the radio and sing along. In the past, once it got dark, there was really nothing to do.

Ji Pianran was holding Tangtang in his arms and telling her the story of the little duckling.

Tangtang had heard this story more than a hundred times and looked a little uninterested.

Looking at everyone who was so bored, Gu Chen suddenly thought of the fireworks he had bought during the day.

He looked at Tang Tang with a smile, 'Do you want to set off fireworks, Tang Tang?'

Hearing about setting off fireworks, Tang Tang's young face did not show any excited expression, but more of a confused one.

She was just over two years old, and this was her second Chinese New Year.

Plus fireworks, those were things only rich people set off, and she was really a bit unfamiliar with them.

The little girl pouted her lips and said in a nasally voice, 'Daddy, what are fireworks?'

Xu Xu heard about fireworks and was full of excitement, and even his tone of voice was a bit higher.

'I know, I know, it's like setting off firecrackers, you light it and it flies up in the air and explodes!'

They saw it when Uncle San bought it back!

Although they don't know what it is, it looks a lot like a firecracker, so it must be fireworks!

'Yes, someone set off firecrackers last time and blew their hand off, so Tangtang definitely won't dare, Uncle San, let us go and set them off!'

Dongdong also came running out, looking at Gu Chen with eager face.

He also wanted to go and set off fireworks.

When she heard Dongdong say this, Xiaotangtang buried her little head in Gu Chen's arms. She usually covers her ears when she hears the sound of fireworks, in case it blows up her hands and hurts!

The little girl said in a hoarse voice, 'Tangtang is afraid...'

Gu Chen stroked Sugar Plum's head and thought about the previous life.

It was also Chinese New Year. That year, Sugar Plum was fifteen years old. She called herself and said, 'Dad, when are you coming back? It's Chinese New Year, let's go set off fireworks.'

That was the year she got sick, but Gu Chen didn't come back. It wasn't that he didn't want to, but the older his daughter got, the more he was ashamed to see her.

If she asked why her mother left, he really wouldn't know how to explain.

Now that I think about it, if he had returned at that time to see his daughter and accompany her in setting off fireworks, letting her know that he loved her, perhaps she would not have become depressed and would not have ended up dying in the hospital.

The white bed sheets on the hospital bed and the pale face of his daughter were really blinding.

Now that he thinks about it, his heart aches with dull pain.

'Be a good girl, Tangtang. Fireworks are not firecrackers. Daddy will take you to see them. They are like stars in the sky, very beautiful!'

Hearing that it was beautiful, the little girl hesitated again. Unsure, she looked at her mother.

'Mom, are you going too?'

Ji Pianran smiled, 'Yes, I'm going too. How about I go with you and keep you company?'

To be honest, Ji Pianran had never seen fireworks since marrying Gu Chen.

She really wanted to see them again.

Hearing that her mother was going too, Tang Tang was relieved and patted her little hands.

'Yes, yes~'

With her parents and Tang Tang, Tang Tang is not afraid!
