I'm also guessing whose cubs belong to me

As the Spring Festival approached, various promotional banners were put up on the street. Yang Li bought a lot of New Year's goods in a hurry, several bags of candy, and several kinds of melon seeds, all of which were piled up at home.

The Chinese New Year picture is full of atmosphere, Xie Chao hangs the red Chinese knots at the entrance, and Zai Zai is sitting next to the small coffee table peeling melon seeds.

Xie Chaojin pulled on his slippers, walked to Zai Zai with his arms swaying, stretched out his long hand, and snatched a small plate of melon seeds he had just peeled.He raised his neck, opened his mouth, and all the melon seeds went into his stomach.

He sat down on the sofa, his mouth was full, and the fragrance of stir-fried melon seeds filled his lips and teeth.

Xie Chao smashed it and said, "It tastes like caramel, it's delicious."

Zai Zai rushed over angrily, and grabbed Xie Chao's collar: "I peeled the melon seeds for half an hour, Dad, spit them out for me!"

Xie Chao patted his paw away and said with a playful smile, "Don't be so stingy."

Zai Zai was furious, turned around and ignored him.

Xie Chao posted it, ready to coax him, but before he could say anything, the phone call came.When he saw it, it was actually the agent's.It's the 29th of the new year, so it shouldn't be a matter of work.If you want to say New Year greetings, you have to wait until tomorrow.

"Hey, is there something urgent?"

Wang Zhiping laughed: "It's nothing serious, but a director is looking for me, and he's in a hurry."

Xie Chao didn't know what he was trying to trick: "Director? What director?"

"Director Handel, he said that you have met." Wang Zhiping said eloquently, "He called me a long time ago and gave me the script. We agreed that it was inappropriate, so we rejected the movie, but The director insists on contacting you."

Xie Chao wondered: "Director Handel has won two Oscars for Best Director. This is a powerful director. Why did he push it down?"

Wang Zhiping sighed: "The director is indeed a rare good director, but the script of the movie is not good."

"What script is it?" Xie Chao asked curiously.

"Homosexual themes." Wang Zhiping analyzed, "Now you don't lack scripts, you don't lack popularity, you don't need to act in this kind of film anymore, only rookies who have just debuted and have no way to go will choose this kind of film."

Xie Chao was stunned for a moment: "Gay?"

Wang Zhiping said, "Are you interested?"

Xie Chao refused: "No, I'm just a little surprised."

"Handel has been urging, and it is useless for us to refuse. He has always wanted to contact you directly." Wang Zhiping said with a smile, "Although we do not agree to accept this film, we still want to ask your opinion."

"Nowadays, movies with remote themes are the easiest to win awards. I don't understand. The organizing committee likes this kind of low-level art movies, and movies like prostitutes, homosexuals, and drug addicts are especially popular." Wang Zhiping pondered. , "If you want to start towards awards, we have no objection, but you don't lack these awards now, and you have won many domestic and international awards."

He took a breath: "If you go for the Oscars, you might have some chances. After all, Handel is talented and you have acting skills. The rest can only depend on fate."

Xie Chao laughed: "Now I choose scripts based on my heart. I really don't lack these awards. I just want to play the role in my heart well."

"Then do you want Handel to contact you?"

Xie Chao thought for a while: "Sure, I'll check the situation first, and nine out of ten I won't answer."

Here, Xie Chao agreed, and Zai Zai leaned over and asked, "Is there a new job?"

"No." Xie Chao shook his head, "I'm still considering it, but I don't want to take any job this year, I want to take a break."

Zai Zai beamed with joy: "That's great."

Xie Chao pinched his little face and ordered Zai Zai: "Come on, peel me some sunflower seeds."

Zai Zai has a straight face, this guy won't have a job for the next year, it's disgusting.

On the afternoon of New Year's Eve, joyful music was playing on the large LCD TV, and the hosts standing in a row were wishing everyone a happy New Year's Eve.

Xie Guangping dragged the big round table into the living room, allowing everyone to watch TV while eating the New Year's Eve dinner.

It was rare for Xie Chao to be quiet, with a round dumpling in his hand.This is probably his best dish, and he squeezed out a dumpling after three times and two divisions.

Zai Zai followed behind him and followed suit, but the dumplings he made tend to loosen, Xie Chao always helped him squeeze them tightly.

"What to put in it this year?" Zai Zai asked cheerfully.

Xie Chao dragged his chin and thought for a while: "Why don't you stuff your beef cubes in?"

There must always be a lottery during the Chinese New Year. According to the past custom, there must be a lucky dumpling with coins in a pot of dumplings. Whoever eats it will have good luck throughout the year.

But Xie Chao and his family have a doctor, and Yang Li firmly disagrees. Thousands of people touch this coin, so it is bound to be infected with bacteria. How can it be stuffed into dumplings?

Originally, the family made a pot of cabbage and pork dumplings, and then picked a dumpling filled with pure pork dumplings. In this way, whoever eats the pure pork dumplings will win the first prize.

As a result, today Xie Chao forgot about this, and mixed it all into cabbage and pork stuffing, and there was no minced meat stuffing at home, so he didn't know what to use for a while.

Zai Zai ran upstairs and took all his beef jerky, and handed it to Xie Chao: "All right, but you have to pay me back later."

Xie Chao tore open the package: "Stingy ghost, I will take you to the supermarket to buy whatever you want."

The phone rang, Xie Chao was busy making dumplings, and said to Zai Zai, "Help Dad answer the phone and see who is calling?"

Zai Zai slid down the screen: "It's Uncle Angus calling."

"Hey, why are you looking for my father?" He looked like a grown-up, with a very serious tone.

Angus chuckled, and his deep and sexy voice came through the screen: "Nothing, I just wish you all a happy New Year's Eve."

Zaizai reached out and turned on the speakerphone: "We make dumplings at home, my dad made them!" The child was very proud and showed off everywhere.

Angus said enviously, "I don't have the motivation to make dumplings when I'm alone at home."

Xie Chao pricked up his ears, heard it, and asked, "Are you alone?"

"Well, Maggie and I are the only ones in my house." Angus sighed, "It's so lively outside."

Zai Zai sympathized with Angus and comforted him: "Then do you want to come to my house?"

Xie Chao covered Zai Zai's mouth with his face-smeared hands, but he had already blurted out, and covering Zai Zai again would not help.

Angus said wittily, "No, your family will reunite on New Year's Eve and have a good New Year's Eve dinner."

Xie Chao's hand was pulled off by Zai Zai, he paused, and said, "Why don't Zai Zai and I go out tomorrow and send you some dumplings?"

There was nothing to do on the first day of the new year, it was almost like taking the children on the road and rushing through the door.

Angus replied, "Okay, I just don't know how to pack."

Xie Chao thought, business can't be benevolent, and can't be a couple but can still be friends.This level of care should not be regarded as a big deal, it should be regarded as mutual sympathy between friends. Feng Dongshu used to come to his house often for dinner.

"Happy New Year to you in advance!" Xie Chao said with a smile.

Angus replied: "Let's have fun together."

Zai Zai chirped over and said, "Happy New Year Uncle, Dad and I will continue making dumplings."

After hanging up the phone, Xie Chao continued making dumplings, put on disposable plastic gloves, tore up Zai Zai's beef jerky, and wrapped them in leather.

Xie Chao made dozens of dumplings and saved them for Angus tomorrow, and threw in a dumpling filled with beef jerky.

Zai Zai rubbed his hands: "I will definitely have beef tonight!"

"It depends on your luck." Xie Chao smiled with narrowed eyes.

In fact, he made a lot of beef jerky dumplings, and when the time comes to serve the dumplings, he pays attention to putting some in each person's bowl. This is a routine that has been passed down over the years.Although Zai Zai could see it, he still enjoyed it.

There are quite a few people coming to dinner tonight, including Cheng Li'an and Nora.

Zai Zai has been deeply impressed by Angus's personality recently. Ever since Angus helped him assemble the small plane, he has looked at him countless times.The little guy pondered: "Why don't we call Uncle Angus together, anyway, he's not missing tonight."

The child is still young, and he doesn't understand the world at the moment.Xie Chao rubbed his curly hair: "No way, tonight is the New Year's Eve dinner, and the whole family eats it together. It will be awkward for Uncle Angus to come over."

"Okay." Zai Zai adjusted the remote control and started watching cartoons.

Cheng Li'an came to the door with big bags and small bags, Zai Zai immediately put down the remote control and went to help grandpa move things.

Yang Li came out of the kitchen, frowned and said, "Bring something here, it's so strange!"

Arnaud and Nora spoke barely fluent Mandarin: "Uncle and Auntie, Happy New Year's Eve."

Yang Li has always liked the girl Nora. She took her by the arm and enthusiastically took out the melon seed candy: "Our Nora has become thinner and darker. Sit down and eat the candy." She was so enthusiastic that she completely ignored the other two. The old men at the door.

Xie Chao thought speechlessly, how much his mother likes daughters, she wanted a daughter since she was a child, and ended up with him as a son.Before, I hoped that Zai Zai would be a good granddaughter, but she was still a grandson.

Xie Chao greeted the reserved Arnaud to come here, the two siblings seldom come to their house, so it must be a bit nervous to be a guest on New Year's Eve.

The three parents were busy in the kitchen, Xie Chao went over to help, Zai Zai took on the important task of entertaining the guests, the little adults were so serious that it made people laugh.

Time drifted by with laughter, and at eight o'clock, the Spring Festival Gala started on time.

Xie Chao sat at the dining table, biting the beef stuffing and thinking, another year has passed, and Zai Zai cheered in his ears: "Wow, I ate beef jerky dumplings, I am the luckiest person!"

"Yeah, we Zai Zai are the luckiest!" Yang Li laughed and coaxed him, the wrinkles in the corners of her eyes were full of traces of happiness.

Xie Chao breathed out, this is really good, now he doesn't want to take unknown risks.

So, sorry...

He blinked, put everything behind him, and sank into the cheerful atmosphere of New Year's Eve.
