Siheyuan, the opening gun is aimed at Yi Zhonghai

Chapter 256 Thoughts

He Yuzhu and Xu Damao were laughing so hard that he fell backwards, and even He Qizhen couldn't help laughing out loud.

Zhou Zheng scratched his head awkwardly, trying to clean off the black dust on his face, "Oops, mistake, mistake..."

After the farce, the atmosphere in the yard became more cheerful.

Zhou Zheng tidied his hair and wiped his face vigorously with his sleeve, finally removing some of the black dust on his face. However, he ignored Xu Damao and He Yuzhu and went straight to He Qizheng.

Seeing that there was still a small pile of firecrackers left at He Qizheng's feet, he couldn't help but ask curiously: "Xiao Zhengzheng, why are there still so many left?"

He Qizheng seemed a little hesitant, pursed his lips, then looked at Zhou Zheng expectantly, and asked cautiously: "Uncle-in-law, can I keep these?"

Zhou Zheng was amused by his cute appearance and couldn't help but reach out and gently rub his little head, and replied softly: "Of course."

Hearing this answer, He Qizheng was very happy. He immediately jumped up excitedly and shouted happily: "Yeah, that's great! Thank you, uncle-in-law!"

After saying that, he quickly hugged all the firecrackers on the ground into his arms. Without even waiting for Zhou Zheng to give him more instructions, he ran back into the house like a happy little bird.

Zhou Zheng, who stayed where he was, looked at his departing back, shook his head helplessly, with a doting smile on his face.

At this moment, He Yuzhu and Xu Damao had successfully lit the last batch of firecrackers. They looked smug and walked towards Zhou Zheng in a swagger.

The unrestrained He Yuzhu laughed like a pig while walking, and kept saying, "It's so cool, it's so damn cool, I've never felt so good setting off firecrackers before."

His steps were extremely exaggerated. He didn't recognize any relatives at all. He didn't recognize any relatives at all.

Xu Damao, who was following closely behind him, looked at him with disdain and said sarcastically, "Show some promise."

However, if one ignores his equally exaggerated steps and the uncontrollable upward curve of his mouth, one might still feel a hint of solemnity.

But now it seems that their performances are about the same.

Zhou Zhengze stood aside, with a helpless and amused expression on his face, and said jokingly: "Okay, stop showing off, and quickly go inside to have the reunion dinner! What's so great about setting off firecrackers?"

His words revealed his tolerance and understanding for these two funny people.

After hearing this and seeing Zhou Zheng's still somewhat dark and gray profile, He Yuzhu and Xu Damao not only did not feel the slightest bit embarrassed, but laughed even more happily, and even laughed a little bit.

Then the three of them walked into the house together.

The huge dining table was already full of people, with only three consecutive empty seats left for them to take their seats.

Zhou Zheng went to the bathroom to wash his face before he sat down at the table. The seats were half male and half female, with Yu Wanrong sitting at the main seat. In order, they were Tian Xinyue, Zhong Xiaolu, Yang Xiaoman, Li Guixiang, He Daqing, Xu Damao, Zhou Zheng, He Yuzhu, Yang Zaixing, You Liying, He Qizheng, Ran Qiuye, and He Yushui, a total of fourteen people.

The wine was already filled. When Zhou Zheng sat down, Yu Wanrong raised her cup and said, "It's the New Year. It's also my first New Year since returning to Beijing. I'm very happy. I'm very happy that everyone can gather here to celebrate the New Year. I also wish all the comrades here to be successful in their careers in the new year. Let's work together to build a new socialist homeland. Everyone, drink this cup."

Yu Wanrong's words made everyone feel excited and expectant, her voice was full of power and enthusiasm.

As soon as the words fell, everyone echoed in unison: "Happy New Year!"

Even He Qizhen was so excited that he raised his drink and shouted, his voice breaking.

The sound of clinking glasses and blessings filled the room, and everyone's face was filled with joy and hope.

Everyone raised their glasses together, gave each other the most sincere blessings, and also expressed their good wishes for the new year.

As the first glass of wine was drunk, the atmosphere gradually became heated.

Everyone started toasting each other, sharing their experiences of the past year and their prospects for the future.

The sounds of laughter and conversation intertwined to create a joyful and peaceful picture.

At this special moment, everyone not only felt the warmth of family and friendship, but also strengthened their determination to jointly build a better society, meet challenges and create a better future.

Zhou Zheng looked at the enthusiastic people at the table and felt warm in his heart. He raised his glass and clinked glasses with Xu Damao and He Yuzhu.

They looked at each other in silence, then raised their glasses and took a big sip.

Zhou Zheng prepared Maotai, which was mellow and full of aroma, making people unable to help but smack their lips.

He Yuzhu licked his lips and said, "Oh, I thought we finished the cup, but you two only took a sip."

Xu Damao said: "I just took a sip. You can drink half a cup with just one sip."

Zhou Zheng looked at He Yuzhu's wine glass!

Damn, this guy is too real.

But he lied with his eyes open, "No, Zhuzi, you are too shameless. Your cup is only half full, while mine and Damao's cups are freshly filled. How can they be the same?"

He Yuzhu had had a drink with his father-in-law Yang Zaixing before, and he couldn't remember whether what Zhou Zheng said was true, but thinking that Zhou Zheng shouldn't talk nonsense, he scratched his head uncomfortably and said, "Oh, really? Is that so, then..."

Xu Damao secretly glanced at Zhou Zheng, raised his eyebrows subtly, and then interrupted He Yuzhu, "Well, you owe me and Brother Zhou half a cup now."

Although He Yuzhu was a little suspicious, he had to fill another cup and said, "Well, it's just half a cup. Who are you looking down on? I'll make up for it. I'll make up for it."

As he said that, he drank half a glass of wine by himself, and then shook the glass towards Zhou Zheng and Xu Damao and said, "How about it, hey, I am not the one who does that job, it's just half a glass of wine."

Yu Wanrong was sitting opposite Zhou Zheng, and saw the situation clearly, but she didn't point it out. She just said, "Da Mao, Han Qing, you are not allowed to bully Zhuzi."

He Daqing grinned and said, "It's okay, it's okay. Zhuzi can drink. It's not a big deal."

He Yuzhu seemed to have realized what was going on. He looked at Xu Damao and Zhou Zheng suspiciously, pretending to be incredulous and said, "Zhengzi, Damao, you two are not fooling me, are you?"

Zhou Zheng laughed, gave He Yuzhu a thumbs up and said, "No, you are such a jerk, how can we fool you? No, no, no."

Xu Damao bit his lower lip and laughed so hard that it twitched.

Such a scene immediately caused everyone else at the table to burst into laughter, and the atmosphere became even more joyful.

The New Year’s Eve dinner is eaten until late at night, which is considered as staying up all night!

Zhou Zheng looked a little dazed. He remembered that before he traveled through time, he and his family also stayed up all night to celebrate the New Year, but at that time they also had to watch the Spring Festival Gala and there was a countdown bell.

He looked out the window and muttered.

"Are you guys OK?"
