Seeing that it was fun, Zhang Taiping planned to buy Yaya a small lantern with battery power and music. He also bought a pair of big red silk lanterns to hang on the door. When the time comes, he will hang them on the door and watch them from a distance.

It wasn't festive in the past either.

There are also lanterns made of bamboo strips, hung in a string on a bamboo pole, and they are pretty swaying. Most of these are bought by rural people as gifts. During the New Year, the nephew wants to pay New Year greetings to his uncle, but the uncle doesn't.

is to

Give a lantern to your nephew. Also sold with this kind of lantern are bundles of fried golden and crispy fine twist flowers, and a small wax monkey, which is a small awl-shaped candle that is placed in the lantern to light it.

Used.

On New Year's Day, most of the younger generation's New Year's greetings to their elders are over. My uncle's family starts sending lanterns to nephews. I don't know how it is in the city, but in the countryside, there are children carrying lanterns from the sixth and seventh day of the Lunar New Year.

The village was full of people. As soon as they came out, there was a group of people, each holding a lantern in his hand, and a few wax monkeys. A group of children could wander around for half the night. It would not end until the lanterns were scattered on the 15th night.

When the lights are scattered on the 15th night, a candle will be inserted in each corner of the yard to illuminate the yard brightly to drive away the darkness and filth in the yard and make it bright and clean in the new year. And on this day

At night, all the lanterns carried by children must be burned. After the lights are scattered, no more lanterns can appear. Of course, the big red silk lanterns with light bulbs hanging inside are another matter.

Zhang Taiping didn't have any relatives at home, so he didn't need to send lanterns to anyone. He planned to buy a few and give them to Yaya to play with.

A group of people walked around to watch. In fact, in a place like this, there is only so much excitement and novelty. When they came to a stall selling small battery-powered lanterns, Zhang Taiping wanted to buy it, and Yang Wanli also wanted to buy it. They bought it for his one-year-old

The left and right son.

"Boss, how much does this lantern cost?" Yang Wanli first picked up a lantern with the zodiac sign of "Yinhu" and asked the boss.

The boss looked at the lantern in Yang Wanli's hand and said enthusiastically: "This is the year of birth this year. It is a little more expensive than the others, costing thirty yuan each."

Zhang Taiping picked up a lantern whose name was the dog in the zodiac but actually looked like a lion and asked: "How much does this cost?"

The boss was stunned when he saw Zhang Taiping, a big man, and quickly put on a smile and replied: "This is not the year of birth. It is cheaper than tigers, 26 yuan each."

The few big men are not good at bargaining, and even if they could, they would not bother with the boss for a few dollars. Zhang Taiping and Yang Wanli both heard that the price was reasonable, so they paid directly, and the boss smiled.

They collected money one by one to put a pair of brand-new batteries in each lamp. This kind of customer was their favorite customer. It was refreshing to pay without bargaining, and everyone was happy. After paying to get the goods, a few people went to other places.

places to visit.

At noon, a few people walked around the entire street. However, Zhang Taiping, a majestic and strong man, was holding a delicate animal lantern in his hand. It was quite strange. People blinked frequently along the way. Some little girls actually

He even laughed out loud. Several people around him also laughed a lot. When Zhang Taiping arrived, there was nothing he couldn't do to keep his face off. You laughed at them, but they still went their own way.

Finally, Zhang Taiping bought several pairs of large lanterns. Several other people were puzzled as to why he bought so many lanterns. They all thought that he was bringing them back for others. Zhang Taiping did not explain that he bought so many lanterns because they had their own uses when he returned home.

.

After having lunch at Fatty's house again, Zhang Taiping was ready to ride back. It was the first time for everyone to meet each other and we were not very familiar with each other. We just had a meal to connect with each other. It was not long before we ran out together passionately.

Going to bars and singing karaoke. However, at this time, Yang Wanli received a phone call that disrupted his schedule.

Yang Wanli came back after taking the phone call and said to Zhang Taiping: "Liu Dazhi called me just now and said that our junior high school classmates were having a gathering. We haven't seen each other in so many years. Let's go and meet together."

Zhang Taiping had no impression of Liu Dazhi mentioned by Yang Wanli, but if Yang Wanli could say that it was a reunion of junior high school classmates and call him, he must be a classmate of the same class in junior high school. Back then, Dashuai Zhang had no nostalgia for school life. Most of them

All time

He hangs out with the gangsters outside and does not get along well with his classmates. Surprisingly, there is no one on whom he has good friendships with in the school class. At this moment, except for Zhao Qingsi and Yang Wanli, there is no trace of anyone left in his mind.

What wonderful school memories.

He didn't want to go, but Zhang Taiping insisted, saying that he wanted to get in touch with his old classmates and see how they were doing. He didn't want to refute his reputation. Furthermore, he wanted to lead the village on the road to development.

I had to contact various people to establish connections, so I agreed.

I called home, and the person who answered the phone was Cai Xiaomei. Zhang Taiping said: "I have to meet some classmates, and I may not go back tonight."

"I know, is there anything else?" Cai Xiaomei's tone was obviously a little unhappy.

Zhang Taiping didn't speak. After waiting for a while, Cai Xiaomei said again: "Sister, please pay attention to your safety."

"Yeah." That's what Zhang Taiping said, and then he hung up the phone. He came to Yang Wanli and asked, "Where are we meeting?"

"In the Great Wall Hotel in Weiqu, I heard that the class monitor had made some money in the past few years, so I gathered all my old classmates to meet. It was going to be a big banquet. Haha."

Zhang Taiping had no idea or impression of the so-called squad leader, so he just nodded and it didn't matter who invited him. So Zhang Taiping and Yang Wanli separated from Niu Junfeng and He Cheng. Yang Wanli drove in front and Zhang Taiping followed behind on a motorcycle.

In the past few years, Chang'an County has developed rapidly since it was renamed Chang'an District. The high-rise buildings and wide roads have been built to rival those of the city. The location of the Golden Great Wall Hotel is basically the most prosperous area in Weiqu, with various parking lots in front.

None of the cars that come here are from this brand.

Zhang Taiping, the man who saves money, can't help but be a little surprised. It seems that this so-called squad leader earns a lot of money. A banquet here can cost tens of thousands of yuan at least. It is not ruled out that he shows off his wealth.

Mentally, Zhang Taiping was thinking in his heart but his expression did not change.

After parking the car, Yang Wanli made a phone call. The squad leader came out of the hotel to welcome him. He was stunned for a moment when he saw Zhang Taiping. Then he remembered who this was and shook Zhang Taiping's hand warmly. Let's not talk about the squad leader.

What kind of character is he? At least there is nothing to say about his appearance. From coming out to greet him in person to shaking hands with Zhang Taiping, he behaved quite grandly.

After Zhang Taiping saw the person, he also remembered who the squad leader was. His name was Li Yang, the same name as the Li Yang who was crazy about English. He also learned English very well in middle school and had some background at home.

People are a little arrogant. But judging from the current situation, they have changed a lot. It is unknown what is going on in their hearts. However, there is no arrogant expression on their faces that looked down on everyone when they were young. Instead, they are harmonious. It seems that society

It is really a big melting pot that can melt away the edges and corners of people.

Under the leadership of Li Yang, we entered the reserved private room. There were not many people inside, less than 20 people. At that time, a class of more than 60 people only had less than 20 people gathering.

Most of the people were lost in the crowd and had not received an invitation. Even Zhang Taiping would not have come if not for Yang Wanli's special request.

Society is like this, people are divided into three, six or nine classes, and only people of the same class can interact with each other. If classmates who are now migrant workers and farmers receive an invitation and come here, they may see the cars parked outside the hotel and the splendid decoration inside the hotel lobby.

, you don't even dare to come in. Yang Wanli was invited because his father is the district chief of Chang'an District and has a distinguished status. It's just that Zhang Taiping didn't know that he came today because of Yang Wanli's credit.

Everyone inside was stunned when they saw Zhang Taiping brought in by Li Yang. Zhang Taiping could not recognize them one by one, but they knew Zhang Taiping. Back then, Zhang Taiping was considered an alternative in the school class and could not associate with anyone.

Deep, but no one can ignore his existence.

Zhang Taiping was also stunned. The two sisters Zhao Qingsi were also inside. When they saw Zhang Taiping coming in, they smiled and said, "You are here too."

Zhang Taiping nodded and sat on the sofa watching a group of people greeting Yang Wanli.

What Yang Wanli said was that Liu Dazhi followed Li Yang to greet everyone. After a few more people came in, Li Yang saw that everyone had arrived, so he clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention to himself and said: "First of all, let's give it to everyone.

Introducing the next beauty, I think everyone will be shocked." Then he pointed at Zhao Qingsi and said, "Who would have thought that this was Zhao Qingsi who was in my class back then?"

Everyone was in an uproar, and Yang Wanli was also stunned. He and Zhao Qingsi had met once at the Flower and Tree Club, but they didn't recognize that they were junior high school classmates. This time they met again, and this time they met Zhao Qingsi's girlfriend, who they thought was Li Yang, and came to introduce him to everyone.

Unexpectedly, it was Zhao Qingsi.

Who is Zhao Qingsi? Anyone who knows Dashuai Zhang will know Zhao Qingsi, the little girl who followed Dashuai Zhang all the time. The changes in a few years have been so huge, how can she still look a little arrogant and domineering?

Everyone looks like a lady, but who would have thought that such a woman like Li Qingzhao had a life as a little girl if she hadn't had the experience of being a classmate.

Zhao Qingsi nodded to everyone calmly.

This was what Li Yang wanted. His eyes were full of smiles, and he looked at Zhao Qingsi with fiery eyes. This made Zhao Xiaoshu, who was sitting aside, feel unhappy. The thoughtful person had already guessed the purpose of monitor Li Yang's class reunion.
