Chapter 940: Mission Impossible, Only Unconventional Methods Can Be Used
“Wow! This is fun! I want it! I want it!”
An Wenyi spoke excitedly, jumping and pulling the bag in Chen Hui’s hand.
“Don’t worry, I’ll give you the points.”
“Each person gets two small boxes first, and the rest is for tomorrow’s fun.”
“Tomorrow night is the real New Year’s Eve.”
As Chen Hui spoke, he gave two small boxes to An Wenyi, Zai Zai and Niu Niu respectively.
The rest moved back to Lin Jiao’s house.
An Wenjing heard the noise of a motorcycle.
Coming out of the store, he asked, “Brother Chen Hui, what did you bring back?”
“Uncle Shuqing brought me some New Year’s goods, including peanuts, melon seeds, candies, Spring Festival couplets, window decorations, and the God of Wealth pasted on the hall and the door.”
“I also bought fireworks, sparklers and firecrackers.”
Chen Hui took out a small box of firecrackers, took out two and threw them in front of An Wenjing.
There was a snap.
It feels like New Year’s Day, but it’s not scary at all.
“This is fun!”
An Wenjing took the firecracker from Chen Hui’s hand.
One after another fell to the ground.
I casually mentioned that Lin Jiao told me this morning that she didn’t have time to go to the market this year, so she prepared a few pounds of meat, some tofu and dried vegetables at home.
He said that after lunch, he would go to town to look around and buy some things.
Chen Hui brought back so many things that he would have nothing missing for the New Year.
“Let our mother look after the store in the afternoon. I’ll take you to the county town to buy two new clothes for the New Year.” Chen Hui suggested.
An Wenjing shook her head.
“I’ve already decided to wear the same outfit I wore last time for the interview this year.”
“It’s a hundred bucks worth of clothes! It would be a shame not to use them for the New Year.”
“This is fun, I’ll go get another box.”
An Wenjing had used up all the firecrackers in her hand, and still not satisfied, she went back into the house to get more.
The telephone in the small room rang.
Chen Hui was about to go in to answer it.
Wang came out of the house, waved and called out, “Chen Hui, give me two boxes of matches.”
“Okay, Auntie Ahua, may you have a prosperous New Year.”
Chen Hui said something nice and went behind the counter to get two boxes of matches and handed them to her.
When Wang Ahua returned home with the matches, An Wenjing had just finished talking on the phone and came out.
“Wife, who called just now?” Chen Hui asked.
“It’s my uncle.”
“My aunt said that our mother and Wen Yi should go to Dasha Village for dinner tomorrow.”
“Before I could refuse, my uncle said the time was up and hung up the phone.”
An Wenjing shrugged.
“My mother will definitely say no.” Chen Hui said.
Lin Jiao’s personality is both stubborn and reserved.
If I bring my whole family to my son-in-law’s eldest aunt’s house to have New Year’s Eve dinner, I know without a doubt that she will refuse.
An Wenjing nodded in agreement and said in embarrassment: “What should I do?”
Chen Hui thought about it and smiled, “Leave it to me, I’ll take care of her.”
“Brother Chen Hui, I trust you on other matters.”
“But she’s my biological mother. I know her better than you do. She definitely won’t go.”
An Wenjing was very sure.
“Want to make a bet?!”
“do not want!”
“You said you know more than me, so why are you so unconfident?”
“I’ve seen you cheat people so many times that when I heard you say you were going to make a bet, I felt like there was something fishy going on.”
“Really? What kind of person do you think I am?”
Chen Hui just said one sentence.
Then I heard Lin Jiao ask from behind: “What are you two talking about? You were talking and laughing.”
“Nothing, just wondering when I can have dinner.”
Chen Hui responded with a smile and winked at An Wenjing.
“I’ll go cook right away.”
“Hongxia is still cleaning the house. The only thing left is the floor. It will be clean after two mops.” Lin Jiao said, quickening her pace and going back to the house to cook lunch.
Chen Hui and An Wenjing started chatting while eating.
I heard that The Bund will be finale tomorrow, so I might as well go back and watch it.
I don’t know what programs will be performed in this year’s Spring Festival Gala.
“Spring Festival Gala?”
Lin Jiao hasn’t watched The Bund and doesn’t have much of an impression of it, but she really wants to watch the Spring Festival Gala.
Chen Kaiming’s family originally had an old TV.
Every New Year’s Eve my house is crowded with villagers who go to watch the Spring Festival Gala.
Last year, the TV in Chen Kaiming’s house was broken by Chen Xiaoqiao and it couldn’t be repaired despite several attempts.
There is no TV to watch in the village this year.
“My aunt has a TV at home.”
“Besides, no one usually comes to his house. Once the gate is closed, I can have some tea and fruit and eat while watching him. It’s so comfortable.”
“I heard that this year they have honey sweet potato chips, peanut candies, and sesame candies.”
Chen Hui put down his chopsticks.
He counted on his fingers and paused intentionally.
An Wenyi sat opposite, the desire in his eyes growing stronger and stronger.
“Oh, by the way, Mom! I delivered something this morning. I was told that I would be back after lunch.”
“My aunt said she wanted to come along, and bring brother Dian Yang and his family with her.” Chen Hui turned to Lin Jiao and said.
“what?!”
During the Chinese New Year, do you take your son, daughter-in-law and the whole family to your nephew’s mother-in-law’s house for dinner?
Lin Jiao was stunned.
“.”
An Wenjing was also surprised.
I thought Wu Shuisheng didn’t say he would come to eat on the first day of the new year.
“No way? I didn’t know you didn’t welcome it, I already agreed.” Chen Hui said a little flustered.
Lin Jiao quickly waved her hands to explain, “No, you’re welcome, of course. I’m just a little surprised.”
“Okay, then it’s settled.”
Chen Hui nodded happily and continued:
“By the way, my aunt also told you and Wenjing to go to her house for dinner tomorrow.”
“After dinner, let’s watch the Spring Festival Gala at her house. If you can’t stay, I’ll take you and Wen Yi back on my motorcycle.”
“It only takes about 10 to 20 minutes to go back and forth. It’s very quick.”
An Wenjing already understood.
Chen Hui went through all these strange twists and turns, and his final goal was just this.
While Lin Jiao was still not reacting, he immediately added, “I agreed to everything.”
“Great! I want to go to Aunt Huihong’s house!” An Wenyi immediately assisted.
Honey sweet potato chips, peanut candies, and sesame candies are all so tempting.
Lin Jiao wanted to refuse but was held down and couldn’t say anything.
Plus, she also wanted to watch the Spring Festival Gala.
As Chen Hui said, the family closed the door, ate and watched the Spring Festival Gala, and I really longed for that.
I could only nod and say, “Okay!”
“It’s settled then. We’ll go together after lunch tomorrow.”
Chen Hui said this and winked at An Wenjing.
An Wenjing also smiled at him happily.
After lunch, Lin Jiao piled the dishes into the pot without bothering to wash them.
He asked An Wenjing for the bicycle key and rode hurriedly to the village entrance.
“Where is our mom going? She seems so anxious.” Chen Hui asked puzzledly.
“You still have to guess. He must have gone to buy meat and vegetables!”
“What mom prepared before is just enough for us. I heard there will be so many guests, so I have to buy more.”
“Brother Chen Hui, why did you trick her by saying that my aunt and her friends were coming?”
An Wenjing was puzzled.
“Just tell me whether I have convinced our mother to go to the New Year’s Eve dinner together.”
“To accomplish this impossible task, you have to use some unconventional methods.”
