My Side Job is a Trader

Early the next morning, the first thing Zhang Xin and Li Xueer did after waking up was to meditate face to face. This has become a tacit understanding and habit between the two.

After meditating, the two hugged each other for a while, until someone knocked on the door.

"The door is unlocked."

Hearing Zhang Xin's words, the door was opened, and it turned out to be He Cuizhen.

"Mom, you wake up so early, it's okay anyway, why don't you sleep a little longer?"

He Cuizhen said: "Your dad can't fall asleep for a long time, he's already up and ready to go early, I'll come in and give you lucky money."

"Huh? And the New Year's money?"

Zhang Xin said in surprise.

He Cuizhen smiled and said, "Yes, but this should be the last time you will receive lucky money in your life, and it will be gone when you get married."

After speaking, He Cuizhen took out two red envelopes, one for Zhang Xin and one for Li Xueer, and after handing them to them, He Cuizhen told them that they would get up at eight o'clock at the latest, because Zhang Boyu had already prepared breakfast by then.

After He Cuizhen left the room and closed the door, Zhang Xin took out the money from the red envelope: "Good guy, it's quite thick, and it can catch up with all the lucky money I got from childhood to adulthood."

Although the red envelope is only one or two thousand yuan, Zhang Xin is already very happy. This is the biggest New Year's money he has received since he was born.

The two of them lay on the bed for a while, and after getting up, Zhang Boyu had almost prepared breakfast.

Zhang Xin took a look, and sure enough, he guessed right. Zhang Boyu prepared breakfast tea from Hanyue, such as hot dried shredded rice and steamed dumplings.

At this time, Zhang Miao was also woken up by He Cuizhen. The first words after everyone came out to meet each other was to say hello to each other and wish each other a happy new year.

A large house also has the advantage of a large house. There are several bathrooms, so the three people who get up at the same time, including Zhang Xin and Zhang Miao, do not need to wait in line to use the bathroom.

While eating breakfast, people began to call one after another, of course they were all calling Zhang Boyu, and most of them were the children of several uncles who called to wish Zhang Boyu and He Cuizhen a happy New Year and other blessings.

Zhang Xin and Zhang Miao didn't need to make phone calls with them, they just sent a group message of congratulations in WeChat, which was considered lazy.

After breakfast, the family got on Zhang Xin's Mercedes-Benz Big G and came to Chenghuang Temple. As a relatively complete ancient building complex in Shanghai, some traditional festivals are held here every Spring Festival.

When Zhang Xin and the others arrived, there were already many people watching performances such as dragon and lion dances. Only in this kind of place can they feel a little bit of the New Year.

Everyone is wearing new clothes on the street, regardless of whether they know each other or not, the first sentence is to wish each other a happy new year, and then they will talk about the things to be said next.

There are many people like Zhang Xin who come out with the whole family together.

The crowd didn't have a specific destination, they just went wherever there was excitement. Of course, Li Xue'er was the most important protection object. Zhang Xin was always by her side, worried that the crowd would be too crowded and cause harm to her.

At this time, Zhang Miao saw an old photo studio, so Zhang Miao suggested: "Mom and Dad, why don't we take a family portrait? Everyone put them in their own homes and hung them up."

He Cuizhen said: "That's fine. It's been a rare family reunion before. Even if it was a rare reunion, I didn't have so much free time to take pictures in the photo studio. Since there is a place to take pictures here, let's take a family portrait of the happy reunion."

Zhang Xin said: "How can this be called a big reunion? Your future grandson or granddaughter hasn't been born yet. Let's take another picture when they are born. That is the real family portrait. Three generations live under the same roof." kind of."

He Cuizhen said: "Okay, the time will be very fast. Next year we will be able to take another family portrait with three generations under the same roof. When the time comes, you and Xiao Xueer will hold the baby."

A small photo studio, the business is really good, and it is basically the kind where a large family comes to take a family portrait.

Zhang Xin and the others still had to wait in line. While queuing up, He Cuizhen said, "Oh, Zhang Miao, what a pity, otherwise you could take a family portrait with us with Li Yong and my nephew Li Yu."

Zhang Miao said: "This is something that can't be helped, maybe this is fate."

He Cuizhen said: "Didn't Li Yu call you for New Year's greetings?"

Zhang Miao replied: "Happy Chinese New Year. I sent me a WeChat message early in the morning. I transferred all the lucky money to him. By the way, brother, don't forget to give your nephew the lucky money."

Zhang Xin said: "Don't worry, I won't forget it, but I have to wait for him to give me New Year's greetings, otherwise I will forget it."

He Cuizhen came up with a sentence: "At a young age, I know how to put on airs for my uncle, and I will still have it in the future!"

Zhang Xin said: "You can't say that, I'm also his uncle after all, so I still want some face."

He Cuizhen didn't answer, and said to Zhang Miao: "Why don't you and Li Yong think about it again, you two divorced on the spur of the moment, and divorced on impulse, I think you two are still single until now. , it can be seen that it is still possible for you to remarry, even if you don't think about yourself, you should consider your children, the impact of divorce on Li Yu is still relatively large."

Zhang Miao replied: "Let's talk about it, the reason why I divorced him at the beginning was also because of impulsiveness, but I just couldn't understand his unpromising appearance and no ambition at all. I worked as a plumber with him. Yes, people are starting to earn more than 100,000 yuan a year. But he still gets four to five thousand yuan a month, which is quite satisfying, and he doesn't want to make more money.

In this world now, everything is imaginary, and money is king. Hasn't he thought about Li Yu's future? Our house has not been settled, so he is not in a hurry. I don't regret the divorce now either. "

He Cuizhen said: "Okay, I can only persuade you about your own affairs, it's up to you to decide what to do."

Before they knew it, it was their family's turn to take pictures. Under the arrangement of the assistant, the family changed into more traditional costumes. The two old people sat in the front, Zhang Xin stood in the middle of the back row, Zhang Miao and Li Xueer Standing on the left and right sides of Zhang Xin.

The photographer adjusted for a long time, and finally he was quite satisfied. He asked them to look at the camera and smile, leaving Zhang Xin's first family photo in history.

The photographer asked Zhang Xin to leave his contact information and address, and after the photos were developed, someone would send them to his door.

When the family came out of the photo studio, Zhang Xin saw his favorite rice dumplings. He gave everyone a bowl without hesitation.

After eating, Li Xueer thought of something and said, "Uncle, don't you want to drive? Eating small glutinous rice balls made with wine should be considered drunk driving, right?"

Zhang Xin scratched his head and said, "It shouldn't be a big problem, this bowl of rice glutinous rice balls doesn't have such a high alcohol concentration."

Zhang Boyu said: "It's really not possible, let's find a restaurant or a restaurant outside and have a meal, so as not to be busy cooking when we go home, and then tidy up, which is quite annoying."

Zhang Xin looked at the time and found that it was indeed time for dinner. So, Zhang Xin took out his mobile phone, and it took him a long time to find a restaurant that didn't require advance reservations and queues.

After lunch, the family first went to Yu Garden for a walk. Yu Garden was also crowded with people, so everyone lost interest in continuing to stroll around. It happened that lunch was almost digested, so they simply went home.
