Chapter 525 Year of Reunion
When Zhao Cheng came back in the evening, he heard Xiuzhi talking about the two children fighting, but he didn't take it seriously. Let the children fight, it won't hurt them.
However, when Zhao Cheng saw Chen Dongsheng still lying on the kang in Zhao Weidong's room, he couldn't help shaking his head. He went forward to check and found that he was still sleeping and even snoring. Zhao Cheng felt that he should not let this child drink in the future.
"Wei Hong, don't let your girlfriend drink in the future! She has such a poor alcohol tolerance!" Zhao Cheng went out and saw Wei Hong busy cooking, so he tried to persuade her.
"Oh, Dad! Yesterday, the third brother and his friends teamed up to force someone to drink three kilograms of liquor. Who could resist that?" Zhao Weihong said with a pout.
Zhao Cheng was also impressed when he heard this. Three kilograms of liquor? Apart from those with extraordinary talents, who could drink three kilograms of liquor? Of course, those people in the Zhao family with supernatural powers were not included.
Fortunately, the wine at this time was all grain wine, so there was no problem. Otherwise, drinking like this would easily send people away. Zhao Cheng couldn't help but glare at the guards who were watching the excitement outside.
Zhao Weijun couldn't help but shrink his neck. He was also happy yesterday, so he was only thinking about getting drunk and forgot that their family's drinking style was different from others.
"Third brother, remember to take it easy in what you do in the future and don't be so reckless. It's only because the wine was good, otherwise you would have to hold a funeral for him today!" said Zhao Cheng.
"I know, Dad. I just forgot about it, didn't I?" Zhao Weijun said a little embarrassedly.
Chen Dongsheng was not awakened by the sound of firecrackers until noon on New Year's Eve. When he got up, he saw Wei Hong sitting next to him looking at him.
"Wei Hong, how long have I been sleeping?" Chen Dongsheng rubbed his temples and said bitterly.
"You've slept for a day and two nights! If you don't have the ability, don't drink. I told you a long time ago that you couldn't drink, but you just didn't listen. Now you're at a disadvantage, aren't you?" Wei Hong poured a cup of hot water and handed it to Chen Dongsheng.
"I didn't expect that you can drink so much, brother? And you heard what he said. How can I not drink?" Chen Dongsheng drank the water and felt a lot better, but his stomach began to growl.
"You are just showing off. Wait, I'm going to the kitchen to see if there's anything delicious!" When Wei Hong saw his expression, she stopped teasing him and went to the kitchen to get him something to eat.
When they arrived at the kitchen, Pingping and the others were cooking. "Mom, is there anything to eat? Dongsheng is awake and hungry!" Wei Hong said to Pingping.
"Just woke up? There's some millet porridge in the pot over there. Take it to him and let him fill his stomach first. We'll have lunch later!" Pingping said.
Wei Hong took a look and found that there was millet porridge in a small clay pot on the stove. She tested it and found that it was still warm, just right, so she filled a bowl with it and handed it to Chen Dongsheng.
"Drink some millet porridge first, we'll have lunch later." Wei Hong handed the porridge to Chen Dongsheng and said.
"Wow, this is good stuff!" Chen Dongsheng usually doesn't eat millet. He has become accustomed to rice at Jianye.
"Where are my uncles?" Chen Dongsheng drank a bowl of porridge and felt a lot better in his stomach. He turned around and became curious.
My father went to work and came back for dinner in the evening. My eldest brother and his wife took them out for a walk.
Wei Hong said with a bit of envy. She originally wanted to go too, but unfortunately she had to take care of Chen Dongsheng, so she could only stay and take care of him!
Just then, a commotion broke out in the courtyard. Zhao Weihong knew it must be her brother and his friends who had returned. She went outside and saw, "Wow, these guys can really buy things!"
The smaller ones were all held in the arms of the older ones. Hao Shuwen held Wei Yu. Zhao Weidong held Zhao Weisi. The others all had large and small bags.
The things bought were even more varied, including snacks, cooked food, wine and beverages.
"Awake?" Zhao Weidong asked with a smile when he saw Wei Hong standing at the door.
"I just woke up and had some porridge! It's just right that you're back. Hurry up and put down your things, wash your hands and get ready to eat. I saw that the cold dishes are already on the table." Zhao Weihong said.
So a large group of people put their things back into their own rooms, started washing their hands and preparing to eat.
By the time the children all came to the table, the food was already on the table, but they hadn't started eating because Zhao Cheng hadn't come back yet. After all, this was a reunion dinner, so they had to wait until Zhao Cheng came back before they could start eating.
But it didn't take long. About ten minutes later, Zhao Cheng came back. After taking off his coat, Zhao Cheng simply washed his hands and came to the dining room.
Looking at the two tables full of people from the big family, Zhao Cheng felt that this was the best. After all, people are the foundation of everything, and without people there is nothing.
"Let's all raise our glasses. Let's make a deal today. There's only one glass of wine for the New Year, so don't drink more. Regardless of age, our family, except for the fourth and fifth children, can be said to be having a reunion year this year, especially with two new members added to the family. I hope you will love each other and remember that you are all brothers and sisters. Unity is the tradition of our Zhao family! May the children have a bright future in the new year! Cheers, let's eat!" After Zhao Cheng finished speaking, he drank the wine and ordered the meal to begin.
Because Chen Dongsheng had just sobered up, and Zhao Cheng didn't allow them to drink too much, so everyone just had a sip this time, and Chen Dongsheng didn't drink a single sip, no matter how people tried to persuade him.
He has made up his mind that next time he comes to the Zhao family, he will not drink alcohol no matter what. He just won't drink!
After dinner, Zhao Cheng continued to be on duty. Zhao Cheng was on duty throughout the day shift, and the political commissar was on duty during the night shift. This was the norm in that era.
In the afternoon, the Zhao family's children who needed to take a nap took a nap, and those who needed to play went out to play. Only a few older children were left at home.
Zhao Weidong led Zhao Weihong, Hao Shuwen and Chen Dongsheng to play mahjong together. The four of them played the kind that cost one cent, and it was Northeastern mahjong.
The main reason is that Zhao Cheng doesn’t know how to play very well, so what he taught Pingping was only Northeastern Mahjong, and of course what was passed down could only be Northeastern Mahjong.
"I lost! Give me money!" Zhao Weihong was lucky today. He was the banker for several consecutive days, which made Hao Shuwen so angry that she didn't want to play anymore. Was this guy cheating?
"Wei Hong, you have been the banker for ten consecutive times! Are you cheating?" Chen Dongsheng said a little incredulously.
"I don't have any. If you don't believe me, ask Zhao Weidong!" Wei Hong counted the money with a smile, looking like a money-grubber.
"Don't be surprised. When we were kids, we played mahjong with notes, and Wei Hong was the only one who won. Everyone else lost. As long as it involved gambling, Wei Hong never lost. It's a natural talent, and you can't envy her!" Zhao Weidong has been used to being beaten since he was a child.
"Is this true?" Hao Shuwen said in disbelief.
"Really, if you hadn't pulled me away, I would have said I wouldn't play with her. Didn't you see that the third child ran out to play with his friends? Just to avoid her!" Zhao Weidong said helplessly.
