New Year's Day

"Wife, how about we go back after dinner and then go to my master's house to pay New Year's greetings?"

"You can go back tomorrow. My parents won't be home today!"

"Okay, it's up to you. By the way, remember to give that bottle of wine to my master later."

While the two were talking, He Yushui finished washing up and walked into the house. "Brother, after we pay New Year's greetings to Master, can I go to the movies with Haitang?"

"Okay, how come you two made an appointment?"

"Yes, we made the appointment yesterday when we went to read a book together."

Yu Li quickly took out two yuan from her pocket. "Yu Shui, take this money. If you find anything you like, buy some."

He Yushui quickly refused: "Sister-in-law, no need, I haven't used the money you gave me the day before yesterday!"

Yu Li smiled and stuffed the money directly into He Yushui's hand. "Just take it, it will save you from spending money and worrying about it."

He Yuzhu looked at the harmonious relationship between the aunt and the sister-in-law, and said jokingly with a smile: "If you two don't like money, you can give it to me. How about I help you spend it?"

"Brother, you are so shameless!"

He Yuzhu chuckled, and at this moment a quarrel suddenly broke out in the yard.

"Why are you blocking the road? You don't ask for New Year's money like this."

"Why? Just because we are neighbors in the same courtyard, you can't say that we don't even have this little money."

As soon as He Yuzhu heard it, he knew it was the voice of the old widow Jia Zhang, and the other one seemed to be a minor neighbor in the central courtyard.

He Yushui wondered as he ate, "Why are they arguing during the New Year?"

"Why else? Mrs. Jia will definitely bring Xiaodang to block the door and ask for New Year's money!"

"What? Blocking the door for New Year's money?"

He Yuzhu looked at Yu Li, who was incredulous. "How about it, now you've opened your eyes, right? But this is nothing, Jia Zhang has done many shameless things!"

So without He Yuzhu saying anything, He Yushui told Yu Li all the bad things that Jia Zhang had done.

"Ah, why is this happening? Is there no one in charge of your yard?"

When He Yushui heard Yu Li ask this, she subconsciously looked at He Yuzhu, but she hurriedly explained.

"It's not that we don't care, it's just that we can't do anything about it!"

Yu Li wanted to continue asking, but He Yuzhu thought that if he asked more, He Yushui would definitely reveal all her secrets! So he quickly interrupted the conversation between the two.

"Okay, let's eat quickly, we have to go to pay New Year's greetings later!"

So after they finished their meal, they packed up and prepared to go out. But as soon as they reached the door of the hanging flower gate, they saw Jia Zhang holding Xiaodang, whose face was flushed, and looking at the three of them with hatred.

"Xiaodang, speak!"

"Happy New Year, red envelope." After Xiao Dang said these words vaguely, Jia Zhang immediately stretched out her claw with black mud under the nails.

"What are you still standing there for? Your children are wishing you a happy new year, why don't you hurry up and take the money?"

He Yuzhu was directly amused by this action. This damn Jia Zhang dared to be so arrogant when asking for money.

"Jia Zhang, do you have no shame at all?"

"What? My kids have already wished you a happy new year, shouldn't I give them some pocket money?"

Seeing this, He Yuzhu snorted coldly: "Jia Zhang, it's New Year's Day, do you have to force me to slap you at such a beautiful time?"

Jia Zhang still stared with her triangular eyes when she heard this, but when He Yuzhu raised his hand, Jia Zhang was so scared that she didn't even care about Xiaodang, turned around and ran away more than ten meters.

She now believes that He Yuzhu would really beat people. If she were beaten by He Yuzhu during the New Year, how would she put her old face aside?

He Yuzhu no longer paid any attention to Jia Zhangshi. He would slowly clean up the Jia family in the future anyway, so let her jump around for now.

After leaving the courtyard, He Yuzhu called a three-wheeled rickshaw. The three of them got in the car and went to buy some pastries and gifts before arriving at No. 15, Jinyu Hutong, where Wu Xuan lived.

He Yuzhu looked at the couplet at the door and thought to himself that he was really ridiculous. In his previous life, he had alienated the people who were the best to him because of the Jia family and the nursing home.

Fortunately, he had another chance. He Yuzhu decided to take advantage of the New Year holidays to rekindle all his previous relationships.

At this time, Wu Xuan was sitting in front of the Eight Immortals Table. Seeing his appearance, Kuai Yunhua couldn't help but laugh and said, "I said, do you really need to do that? You even put on this outfit!"

"Of course not. It's Chinese New Year. If those guys come and see me in such a slovenly state, won't I be embarrassed?"

"Okay, okay, you're right, but who can come first this year?"

Wu Xuan stroked his beard. "It should be Zhuzi, right? This kid is really something. He sent so many things before the New Year."

Kuai Yunhua shook his head. "It was Minhua who came first last year. How about we make a bet?"

However, as soon as she finished speaking, there was a knock on the door, followed by He Yuzhu's voice.

"Master, I'm here to wish you a happy new year!"

When Wu Xuan heard this, he immediately glanced at his wife with a smug look on his face, and then he said, "The door is not locked, come in!"

Kuai Yunhua also shook his head helplessly and hurried to the door.

But when Wu Xuan saw He Yuzhu's large and small packages of gifts, he said with an unhappy look on his face: "Zhuzi, why do you bring so many things? You just got married and you don't want to live your life?"

"How about this, I'll take this bottle of wine, and you can take the rest. Return what can be returned, and keep what can't be returned at home and enjoy it slowly."

He Yuzhu certainly understood that Wu Xuan was definitely not being polite to him, but was genuinely considering him.

While feeling touched, He Yuzhu also hurriedly explained: "Master, why are you in such a hurry? This thing is not just for you. Don't my master's wife and my junior sister also need to eat it?"

"Besides, I've already brought it here, so it doesn't make sense for me to take it back!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Xuan pointed at He Yuzhu helplessly. Coincidentally, another person walked in at this time. He Yuzhu took a quick look and saw that this was his senior brother Huang Minhua.

"Zhu Zi, are you here early enough?"

"Big Brother, um, Happy New Year."

Huang Minhua came up and hit He Yuzhu. "You kid, you haven't contacted me for so many years, and you didn't even tell me that you got married. Today you have to drink three cups as punishment!"

"I am very sure of that."

"Hahaha, you finally figured it out."

He Yuzhu looked at Huang Minhua with enthusiasm, and the past events when they were brothers appeared in his mind.

Then, several people started chatting lively in the house. After a while, all the brothers and sisters of He Yuzhu who were able to come came to wish Wu Xuan a happy new year.

For a while, Wu Xuan's house was extremely lively, and He Yuzhu took this opportunity to repair his relationship with his fellow apprentices.

What surprised him was that his second senior brother actually became the head chef of the Beijing Hotel, while his eldest senior brother and other brothers were still working at Fengze Garden.

However, Fengzeyuan is now a public-private partnership. Although the salary is not as good as that of the steel mill, it is still a stable job.

Finally, they each cooked a dish and chatted at the table when He Yuzhu's fifth apprentice suddenly started to make a scene. "Brother, you've been gone for so many years, and everyone misses you. Don't you want to show some appreciation today?"

Huang Minhua also said: "Zhu Zi, don't you still have to drink three cups as punishment?"

"Drink, I'll drink one first to cheer you up."

He Yuzhu said this as he picked up a bottle of Erguotou and drank it. After finishing it, he pointed the bottle mouth downwards to indicate.

This move stunned everyone present. "Great job, Zhuzi. You are worthy of working in a steel mill. You can drink a lot!"

In fact, He Yuzhu didn’t know why, but since he was reborn, not only has his alcohol tolerance increased, but his strength also seems to have become greater.

But under the siege of a group of fellow disciples, He Yuzhu finally got drunk, but he was very happy in his heart.

He was not only happy to have such a group of close brothers, but also happy that he had the opportunity to make up for the mistakes he made in his previous life...
