In the evening, the sound of firecrackers outside became more and more frequent, and Lin Chaoyang also led his son to set off firecrackers in the courtyard.

Today, Xiaodongdong can just walk, but can't run yet, and can only speak "ba" and "ma".

A single firecracker was placed on the ground, lit with a cigarette, and there was a "bang" sound, which frightened him all over, and then he laughed loudly and clapped his two chubby hands together hard.

After letting it sit for a while, Lin Chaoyang took out the small whip and lit it. There was a "crack" sound, and Xiao Dongdong, who was standing in the middle of the courtyard, turned around and ran away in fright.

Unfortunately, his legs and feet were not flexible. His left foot tripped over his right foot, and his right foot tripped over his left foot. He made two circles with his body, and a dog ate shit and got on the ground.

"Mom! Mama!"

"Is this child's hands and feet uncoordinated?"

When Tao Yushu saw his son fall, he ignored his cry and did not help him. Instead, he frowned and said.

Tao Yumo went over to help Xiao Dongdong up, and said angrily: "You two are really good at it! One of them is setting off cannons to scare the children, and the other is just standing there watching the show, and he doesn't know how to come over and help him!"

"It's not like he doesn't have arms, just let him get up on his own."

Tao Yushu behaves like a tiger mother.

Tao's mother looked at this scene with a confused expression. She walked over and took the child from Tao Yumo's hand, scolding Tao Yushu: "How can you take care of a child like you?"

He turned around and showed a distressed look, "Grandma's grandson, does it hurt from the fall?"

Xiaodongdong didn't cry even after she fell, but looked at Tao's mother with a smile.

Mother Tao felt even more distressed, "Oh! Grandma's eldest grandson doesn't cry even when he's wrestling. He's really sensible."

"Mom, it's just a fall."

Tao's mother glanced at Tao Yushu coldly, "Then give it a try!"

Tao Yushu was speechless by her mother's rebuke. She came to Lin Chaoyang and muttered, "It's better not to ask them to come!"

"Okay, Mom also feels sorry for Dongdong." Lin Chaoyang comforted her and changed the topic, "Didn't you notice? Yu Mo is really becoming more and more like Mom."

Tao Yushu nodded, "Indeed, she almost drank all the Coke at home."

Lin Chaoyang couldn't help laughing when he heard this, "Then you still want her to pay?"

"There's no need to pay. Just give me less New Year's money."

The couple chatted and laughed, and went to the kitchen to work for a while. At almost eight o'clock, the New Year's Eve dinner was served on the table.

"Turn on the TV! Turn on the TV!"

Tao Yumo actively turned on the TV and broadcast it to CCTV. At this time, the preview of the Spring Festival Gala was already playing on the TV.

With last year's success, this year's Spring Festival Gala seems to have a more proficient process.

This year's host has undergone a major change. Except for Jiang Kun, the remaining three have been replaced by actresses Jiang Lili, Chen Sisi and host Huang Ayuan from Bay Island.

As for the content, it’s all those programs that come and go.

The only difference was that at around nine o'clock, Zhu Shimao appeared.

Lao Mao was wearing a white sweater and a beige windbreaker. He was still so handsome. In comparison, Chen Xiaoer next to him looked much more wretched.

well!

Lao Mao, you have finally walked on this old road.

A good movie star turns into a comedian, which is called being unkind to others.

But no matter what, "Eating Noodles" can be regarded as making the two actors Chen and Zhu famous, and it also made the artistic expression of sketches shine on the Spring Festival Gala stage.

Even to some extent, it will affect the entertainment life of Chinese people in the next forty years.

"Unforgettable tonight

Unforgettable tonight

Regardless of the ends of the earth and the corners of the sea

China embraces each other thousands of miles apart

…”

It was past twelve o'clock in the middle of the night. The old people couldn't bear to go to bed long ago, and Xiaodongdong was already asleep.

There were only Lin Chaoyang, his wife and Tao Yumo in the living room, and the familiar and sweet melody sounded, which also represented the end of the past year and the beginning of the new year.

"Okay, go to sleep."

After finally watching the Spring Festival Gala, Tao Yushu yawned and just stood up. Tao Yushu ran up to the couple and bowed deeply.

"Sister, brother-in-law, happy New Year!"

Tao Yushu looked at his sister speechlessly, "You can't wait until you wake up."

"Everyone wishes you New Year greetings when you wake up. This is my first New Year greeting, and it's full of sincerity." Tao Yumo said with a flattering face.

Lin Chaoyang smiled and touched his pocket, "Okay, take it."

"Thank you sister, thank you brother-in-law!"

Lin Chaoyang and his wife went to bed, and Tao Yumo also returned to her small room. She didn't bother to sleep, so she opened the red envelope given by Lin Chaoyang and found several big unity cards.

One piece, two pieces, three pieces...

Tao Yumo counted and found that there were five. This was much more than the lucky money in previous years.

She thought about it again and immediately understood that this must be the bonus given by her sister and brother-in-law for seeing her devotedly raising the children.

Sure enough, working with children is not as fun as taking care of children. My eldest nephew is really my money-spinner.

In a state of elation, Tao Yumo kissed the sleeping Xiao Dongdong on the face.

After the child was weaned from night feeding some time ago, he slept with Tao Yumo.

At this time, most of Yanjing City has gone to sleep, and there are still firecrackers ringing outside the window from time to time. Tao Yumo looks outside and thinks to himself: Why are these people not sleeping if they are setting off firecrackers so late?

She is right, some people do not sleep.

To be precise, it's not that I don't sleep, but that I can't sleep at all.

Residential building above Taipingguan Western Restaurant, Yanjing Road, Guangzhou.

In later generations, Guangzhou's nightlife was as rich as a city that never sleeps, but now, the city falls into a deep sleep after nine o'clock in the evening.

Even though today is New Year's Eve, the excitement reaches eleven o'clock, and the whole city has fallen silent. Only occasionally will young people who have nowhere to vent their energy set off a few firecrackers, disturbing the tranquility.

"Lao Li, go to bed early. You have to go to New Year greetings tomorrow." His wife He Xian warned Li Shifei in a gentle tone.

Li Shifei answered her in a nasal tone, but his body didn't move at all.

Looking at his state, He Xian sighed helplessly.

My husband has always been very serious about his work, and even more so after taking charge of "Flower City".

Since he received this manuscript in his hand five days ago, he has never put it down. He spends almost every day in this state.

In addition to going to the toilet, even when eating, I have to hold the manuscript in my hand. It's like being possessed. I really don't know what to see.

Originally, the Chinese New Year was supposed to be a lively time for the family, but her husband was preoccupied with reading manuscripts, and she had to do all the work inside and outside the house. Thinking of the busyness of the past few days, she felt panicked.

The key is that after so much work, people don’t even take a glance at it, their eyes are entirely on the manuscript.

I won’t eat if I’m not yelled at. I can’t put the manuscript down even after eating. I’ll continue to read after eating. I can’t read even one second before I fall asleep. I’ll have to read again when I wake up and open my eyes.

I’m so stunned! I’m so stunned!

But he was angry, and He Xian was more distressed. Li Shifei was already in his fifties, and reading the manuscript with such intensity was almost suicide.

She stood there and waited for Li Shifei for a while. Seeing that he still made no move, she decided in her heart that she must let him go to bed early tonight no matter what.

She was thinking in her mind that she was going to snatch the manuscript from Li Shifei's hand, but she didn't expect that she had not had time to do it.

Li Shifei, who was sitting calmly on the sofa, suddenly stood up and screamed three times. He Xian was frightened and wondered what was going on with him.

Just when he was about to ask, he saw Li Shifei's tears pouring down his face, and his expression seemed to be crying, laughing, or crazy.

"Old Li! Old Li! Are you okay? Don't scare me!"

He Xian was anxious and shook Li Shifei's arm with worry on his face.

After a long time, Li Shifei regained his senses from that complete trance state. He looked at his wife in confusion. Seeing her worried and anxious face with tears on her face, he asked: "What's wrong?"

Seeing that he finally woke up, He Xian cried and complained: "You still ask what's wrong? You are stunned. Do you know that you are stunned when you read the manuscript..."

Before He Xian could finish speaking, Li Shifei was immediately distracted when he heard the word "script", "By the way, manuscript!"

He turned around and searched for a long time, but couldn't find the manuscript. He immediately panicked, "What's going on? You obviously read it just now? Why is it missing?"

He Xian watched her husband "riding a donkey to look for a horse", and the anxiety in her heart subsided, replaced by a feeling of laughter and tears.

She reached out to grab the manuscript in Li Shifei's hand, "You've been scanning it with your eyes for a long time, don't you know how to look for it with your hands?"

Prompted by his wife's actions, Li Shifei realized what he was doing. He breathed a sigh of relief, "I was shocked. I thought the manuscript was gone."

He Xian looked at her husband's distracted and startled look, and complained again, "You are really crazy, are you going to scare people to death during the Chinese New Year? I am fascinated by the manuscript!"

Li Shifei knew that he had not heard anything going on outside the window these days, and his wife was busy with New Year's Eve matters. He felt guilty and apologized to his wife.
