Jiang Heng's star
Chapter 21
Every year after the New Year's Eve dinner, Zhao Wenqin always prepares a lot of lucky money for the younger generation, the younger generation, married and unmarried.Last year, the Jiang family changed from three servings to one serving, but this year it changed from one serving to two servings for Jiang Heng and Jiang Xingyu after preparing meals.
After dinner, Jiang Heng hugged Jiang Xingyu and watched TV on the sofa, turning his head from time to time to explain to Jiang Xingyu what was on the TV.
Jiang Wenguang loves tea like his life. On New Year's Eve, he specially took out the premium Dongting Biluochun from his collection and brewed it while watching TV.Boiling water was poured into the teapot, and the elegant tea fragrance rose and floated in the air along with the water vapor. He couldn't help sighing in his heart that he was the only one in the family who liked to drink such good tea.
"It smells so good." Jiang Xingyu, who was watching TV, said suddenly.
Jiang Wenguang paused with his tea-raising hand, looked at Jiang Xingyu silently, put down his teacup, poured a cup of tea and put it in front of Jiang Xingyu silently.
Jiang Xingyu blinked with a confused expression, looked at the tea in the cup and then at Jiang Wenguang, did this mean to ask him to drink it?
Jiang Heng watched calmly, not ready to speak, and let Jiang Wenguang speak by himself.
Jiang Wenguang was depressed, how stupid this kid is, why should he speak up?Seeing Jiang Xingyu's appearance that he would not take the initiative to drink unless he said anything, he said helplessly, "Tsk, drink and watch."
The tea soup in the cup was clear in color and pure in aroma. Jiang Xingyu lifted the teacup and took a sip. It was a bit bitter, a bit astringent, and seemed to have a hint of sweetness, which was a very special taste.
Jiang Xingyu drank slowly, and the small cup of tea reached its bottom in a short while. After drinking it, he pursed his lips, and then seriously said to Jiang Wenguang, "Grandpa, it's delicious."
Jiang Wenguang was secretly delighted, but he didn't show it on his face, "Your boy is quite knowledgeable. Tell me, how can you drink it?"
Jiang Xingyu couldn't come up with a complicated description, even though he also felt that this drink called tea tasted very special, after thinking for a while, he still replied: "It's very special and delicious."
Jiang Wenguang was angry and funny, "Is that how you describe it?" Then he asked, "Isn't it bitter?"
Jiang Xingyu thought for a moment, then replied, "Bitter."
"Isn't it bitter?"
"astringent."
"Does that also taste good?"
"Delicious."
Jiang Xingyu's expression was serious, and Jiang Wenguang couldn't see the slightest trace of the other party's lying, so he believed Jiang Xingyu's words.He still looked calm and composed on the surface, and poured Jiang Xingyu another glass.
Jiang Xingyu raised his glass to drink again, but was stopped by Jiang Heng. Jiang Heng ignored Jiang Wenguang's unhappy expression, and coaxed softly, "Xingyu drink less, he won't be able to sleep at night."
"I'm going to watch the new year tonight, how can I go to bed so early?" Jiang Wenguang interrupted unhappy.
Jiang Heng looked impatient, "Xingyu is used to going to bed at eleven o'clock."
Zhao Wenqin also came down from upstairs at this time, and said, "Old man, don't force Xingyu to drink your tea, you like to drink your own."
Jiang Wenguang was a little wronged, "Xingyu said it was delicious, and I didn't force him to drink it. Xingyu, don't you think so?"
Jiang Xingyu nodded, and then asked Jiang Heng: "What is keeping the year old?"
Jiang Heng patted Jiang Xingyu's head, and explained: "Shou Sui is New Year's Eve, and the lights are on until twelve o'clock to officially celebrate the New Year."
Jiang Xingyu also understood. Jiang Heng has been telling him about the New Year's events these days, "Is this also a New Year's custom?"
Jiang Heng replied: "Yes, but Xingyu will go to sleep when he is sleepy, and there is no need to watch the new year together."
"Xingyu wants to keep watch." For the first time, Jiang Xingyu knew that Chinese New Year needs to be kept watchful. Celebrating Chinese New Year in an orphanage is no different from ordinary days. Red envelope.
Zhao Wenqin said with a smile: "Xingyu can keep it if he wants to, sleep here tonight and don't go back." Then he handed the red envelopes in his hands to the two, "Come on, one red envelope per person."
Jiang Heng said thanks for accepting it, and then said to Jiang Xingyu: "Xingyu thank you grandma."
Jiang Xingyu took the red envelope, "Thank you, grandma." But he felt that it was different from what Dean Wu gave him in previous years. He looked carefully, tilted his head and asked, "Is there sugar in it?"
Zhao Wenqin was taken aback, did this kid never receive any red envelopes?
In fact, Dean Wu will give a red envelope to the children in the orphanage every Chinese New Year, but because the money is of no use to the children in the orphanage, and there are strict regulations on every cent and cent of the expenses for the orphanage, So Dean Wu put candies into the red envelope instead of the New Year's wallet.Of course, most children would know that the red envelopes were actually lucky money, but Jiang Xingyu was in a special situation, and no one would take the initiative to explain this to him. Jiang Xingyu naturally didn't know and never received the actual lucky money red envelopes.
Jiang Heng also realized this, and said, "Xingyu, open it and see what it is?"
Hearing this, Jiang Xingyu lifted the seal and took out the contents inside. There were probably dozens of hundred-yuan bills inside. Jiang Xingyu was a little surprised, "Is it money?"
Jiang Heng smiled lightly, and patiently explained to Jiang Xingyu, "Xingyu, this is called New Year's money, and wrapping it in red envelopes is also a Chinese New Year custom, which means peace every year."
Jiang Xingyu understood, nodded, and repeated: "All year round is safe."
Zhao Wenqin was a little distressed, she should have paid more if she knew that the child hadn't received the New Year's money.But after thinking about it, Jiang Xingyu doesn't need any money, and now the other party is her grandson, can't they raise a child in such a big Jiang family?
Zhao Wenqin said, "I asked Aunt Zhang to tidy up a room for Xingyu. Xiao Heng, you didn't even say that Xingyu was coming. I didn't prepare anything."
Jiang Heng replied: "It doesn't need to be so troublesome, I can just sleep with Xingyu, Xingyu will not get used to changing the environment, I don't worry about him sleeping alone."
Zhao Wenqin was a little surprised. Jiang Heng asked to sleep alone since he was a child, and he didn't like to share a room with others, let alone share a bed with others.But she didn't think too much about it, and directly agreed. She only felt that Jiang Xingyu was really important to Jiang Heng, and all principles could be broken for him.
Jiang Wenguang didn't say a word, and sat drinking tea silently, his face was much more relaxed than when he first saw Jiang Xingyu.He felt bored after watching the show for a long time, so he knocked out a cigarette from the cigarette case to smoke. It is said that a cigarette after a meal, happy like a fairy, although it has been a long time after the meal.
Jiang Heng frowned when he caught a glimpse of Jiang Wenguang lighting a cigarette, and when he was about to ask him to go to the balcony to smoke, Jiang Xingyu spoke before him, "Grandpa, smoking is not good."
Jiang Wenguang paused while holding the cigarette between his fingers. He lit the cigarette and was about to put it in his mouth for the first puff, but he had to stop in mid-air in embarrassment.He coughed a few times, "What's wrong? I'm getting old, and I can't quit even if I want to.
Jiang Xingyu frowned slightly, "I'm going to get sick," reached out and took a candy from the table, and handed it to Jiang Wenguang, "If you want to smoke, you can eat candy."
Jiang Xingyu usually reads everything, including books, magazines, TV series, movies, and even commercials.Smoking and eating candy is a popular science advertisement he saw in a magazine, which clearly stated that smoking would lead to many diseases in life, and if you quit smoking, you can eat smoking cessation candy.But he didn't understand the meaning of smoking cessation candy, he only thought it was a kind of candy, and thought that as long as it was candy, it could be used to quit smoking, so he took the candy on the table and gave it to Jiang Wenguang.
Jiang Xingyu's memory is amazing. He remembers a lot of things, but he can't remember them all the time. More often, he needs to use an action, a word or a command to recall them instantly, just like when he sees blood, he knows it's an injury. He would think about taking the medicine box to deal with it, and he could remember this time because he saw the cigarette in Jiang Wenguang's hand that looked like the one in the magazine.
Jiang Heng looked at Jiang Wenguang teasingly, and Zhao Wenqin had the same expression. She had persuaded him to quit smoking countless times, but the other party was unmoved. She wanted to see how Jiang Wenguang would respond.
Jiang Wenguang stared at Jiang Xingyu fixedly, Jiang Xingyu held up the candy and looked at him.
Jiang Wenguang was defeated in the end, only because Jiang Xingyu's eyes were too pure, without any impurities.He extinguished the cigarette and threw it into the ashtray, then took the candy from Jiang Xingyu and tore it into his mouth.
"Is it okay? Brat! I'm still in charge." Jiang Wenguang noticed the expressions of the other two, and said a little angrily.
Jiang Xingyu nodded and looked away, continuing to watch the TV.
Jiang Wenguang turned off the ignition immediately, speechless, what kind of anger was he with a junior, he couldn't even apologize to a junior, so he could only pretend to watch TV with his face away uncomfortably.
Jiang Xingyu wanted to keep the year old, but he couldn't resist the drowsiness. As soon as it was eleven o'clock, his head was nodding, and he tried his best not to fall asleep.
Jiang Heng watched it amusedly and felt that Jiang Xingyu was really cute, so he gently supported Jiang Xingyu's head on his shoulder.
Jiang Xingyu woke up a little bit because of Jiang Heng's actions, and muttered in his mouth: "Shou Sui, Xing Yu must keep the year old."
"Okay, we are guarding, Xingyu leans on his brother obediently, and the guarding will be over at 12 o'clock." Jiang Heng patted Jiang Xingyu, lowered his voice and coaxed softly.
Jiang Xingyu couldn't help but fell asleep leaning on Jiang Heng's shoulder.Keeping the New Year's Eve is just a ritual, it's really not that particular, Zhao Wenqin quietly suggested that Jiang Heng take Jiang Xingyu upstairs to sleep.
Jiang Heng shook his head and told the elders to go up to rest first, while he and Jiang Xingyu stayed here to watch the year.
Keeping the old age is something Jiang Xingyu still thinks about before going to bed, so he naturally wants to do it for the other party, even if it is a small thing, he is not willing to let Jiang Xingyu down.
After dinner, Jiang Heng hugged Jiang Xingyu and watched TV on the sofa, turning his head from time to time to explain to Jiang Xingyu what was on the TV.
Jiang Wenguang loves tea like his life.
