Chapter 434: Busy Spring Festival

At this time someone shouted: "Annabel, what's the point?"

Only then did Annabel realize from surprise, lifted the thing in his arms and looked at it. It turned out to be a doll toy, a Sun Wukong's doll toy, about 60 cm tall and twenty cm thick. It was made very finely. The stick in the monkey's hand also looked like a golden cudgel made of gold paint.

"Wow, it's very beautiful, I like it very much. Thank you Mr. Diplomat, how did you make it happen." Annabel really likes the puppet in her hand, and she prefers this way of giving gifts.

Mu Yang just shrugged.

After everyone saw it clearly, they all said that the monkey was really beautiful and wanted to own one.

But there was nothing I could do about this. Mu Yang only prepared this one, and it was a gift he took out personally.

Mu Yang's performance was very successful, and the following reception work was also going on in an orderly manner. Mu Yang changed his clothes and got into the reception team again. Some children recognized Mu Yang, came to say hello to him, and asked him about magic.

After having a hearty Chinese meal at noon, the children got into the car and left. Mr. Cui drove a brief ten-minute summary meeting and said that the opening day was held very well, achieving the expected purpose, and promoting China's culture and diplomacy.

Among them, Mu Yang was praised, "Comrade Mu Yang took the initiative to take over the performance task, and completed it very well, with publicity and interaction, allowing the children to accept Chinese culture in entertainment. This method is worth promoting, which shows that Mu Yang has been thinking about it."

After the open day, Mu Yang was busy working on the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office, but this period was not bad, and there were no headaches in the jurisdiction of the Houston Consulate General.

The Chinese New Year is about to celebrate in China. This will be Muyang’s first Spring Festival abroad. It is inevitable that he misses home. The consulate will also have a holiday during the Spring Festival, but Muyang has been in the first year. It is definitely not the turn of other countries.

Qian Chang is packing his things, he can celebrate the New Year at home this year.

"Brother Qian, I envy those who can celebrate the New Year at home." Mu Yang joked.

"Brother, I've been in three years. This is my first time home. During this period, only your sister-in-law brought my girl to see me once. You still envy me." Qian Chang said with a wry smile.

"How many days can I rest in the country this time?" Mu Yang asked.

"I have counted all the Spring Festival holidays for three years. There are 11 days in total, and it takes two days to come on the plane. Alas, I haven't been sleeping yet, so I have to come again." Qian Chang said.

"We rotate every four or five years. I guess you will be able to do it for one or two years." Mu Yang said.

"You can reunite with your family when you go there. If you don't get a salary after going there, you will get a dead end. It's more than 4,000 yuan a month, which is probably just enough to have a meal. At least there is a subsidy outside, and you can't use it normally. You can save it." Qian Chang sighed.

Although the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is also a state ministries and commission, and is directly under the State Council, it has no subordinate units in China, so it is considered the most difficult ministries and commission.

Even if other units do not embezzle, their usual filial piety and local specialties for the New Year and Festival can be left with a lot of money, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is insulated from these things.

"Forget it, I won't talk about this anymore. Do you need me to bring something to your house?" Qian Chang said.

Mu Yang thought about it and said, "Forget it, I don't have anything to bring."

One advantage of diplomats is that they bring some foreign things, within a certain range, and do not need to pay tariffs, which is considered one of the rights of diplomats.

But Mu Yang doesn't have much to bring. After all, things from the United States may not be better than those in China. Besides, he doesn't care about that little money.

A minibus sent away 11 countries, and now only 16 people stayed to work. In fact, during the end of the year, or during January and February of the Gregorian calendar, there were still a lot of work at the Consulate General.

But it is too unreasonable to let others not be allowed for a few years, so basically one-third of the country is left behind, and all the work of the people who are left behind is on them.

On January 17, the founding meeting of the Florida Chinese Association, Consul General Cui Mingxue, Deputy Consul General Guo Xuemin, local overseas Chinese leaders and members of the association attended the conference. Consul General Cui Mingxue introduced the latest progress in China's economic and social exhibition and Sino-US relations, praised the Chinese and overseas Chinese in Florida for promoting the fine traditions of the Chinese nation, caring about the construction of the motherland's exhibition, actively integrating into the mainstream society, and making contributions to the local exhibition. He hoped that the association would further unite the overseas Chinese, strengthen unity and cooperation with other Chinese associations, actively build a harmonious overseas Chinese community, and promote the healthy and stable exhibition of Sino-US relations. Mu Yang also followed and participated in the event.

On January, Deputy Consul General Zhang Chuanshan attended the Atlanta China Chamber of Commerce, the 2O12 Annual Meeting and the 2O Anniversary Celebration Dinner and the 2O Spring Festival Art Gala of the Association, accompanied by the consular attendant of the Muyang of the Leading Overseas Chinese Group.

On January 28, the Chinese Consulate General in Houston held a 2O12 Spring Festival reception that night. More than 5oo guests including American politics, overseas Chinese, Chinese-funded enterprises and international students were invited to attend.

As an embassy staff member, Mu Yang spent two days busy with this activity.

This is just an event that Mu Yang participated. As for Consul General Cui Mingxue, the three deputy Consul General, they basically participated in the event all day and had no spare time. They met the governor today, met members of parliament tomorrow, participated in activities of Chinese and overseas Chinese, and organized cocktail parties in the United States. They also organized activities to entertain people from all walks of life to enhance friendship.

Mu Yang only feels that there is really not enough time.

Fortunately, the Spring Festival has finally arrived, and the activities before the New Year have come to an end.

On New Year's Eve, Mu Yang called home, and it was my dad's call, "Dad, I'm Yangyang, what are you doing?"

"Isn't this watching the Spring Festival Gala? Are you okay there?" Dad cared.

"It's great. I've been busy these days. You know that I just came here and it's not easy to celebrate the Chinese New Year, so I can't spend the New Year with you this year." Mu Yang said apologetically.

"Okay, I've said it once, why do you mention it? Dad can understand you. You are still young and it's time to do your career. But Dad only has one sentence: Pay attention to your health and be alone outside, so you should pay more attention to safety." Mu Shouli said.

"I know Dad, Dad, Auntie and Chenchen." Mu Yang said.

"Here, Chenchen is ready to grab my phone number. Wait, I'll give her the phone number."

"Brother, you won't come to set off firecrackers with me this year." Chenchen said.

"I won't go this year, but I'll try to accompany Chenchen during the Chinese New Year next year." Mu Yang coaxed his sister.

"Okay." Mu Chen said a few more words to Mu Yang and handed them over to Li Suyun.

"Mom, I'm going to wish you a happy new year."

Li Suyun was stunned at first, and then the smile on her face unconsciously overflowed. (To be continued.)
