There will always be some unexpected people or things that suddenly appear, big or small, happy or sad, just a small episode, and the dull days have to continue.

Shi Lei is Ishikawa's younger brother, although he has looked down on this eldest brother since he was a child, but his blood is thicker than water, and he can't see death without help.

He feels the same as Zhang Xiaobai, Li Pingyuan will not be so kind to make a lot of money with his eldest brother, there must be something here.

It's just that he tried everything he could, and even held a family meeting to mobilize the whole family to persuade him, but Ishikawa still didn't get in the oil and salt, and he was determined to go out with Li Pingyuan to open a mine, and he also said that Shi Lei was jealous of him.

Kindness is regarded as a donkey's liver and lungs.

After listening to Zhang Xiaobai's suggestion, since he said that he couldn't move Ishikawa, he tried to convince his sister-in-law that Xiuxiu had to do it.

Xiuxiu is indeed very level, and usually does not participate in the affairs of the family, but when it comes to things, she is really unambiguous, and finally moved her sister-in-law by reasoning with the facts, and finally told Ishikawa that she can go to the mine, but she can't spend a lot of money.

Zhang Xiaobai just had an idea, he didn't care about this matter at all, he Ishikawa was deceived and beaten, what does it matter?

Don't look at the relationship with Shi Lei so well, since he was very young, Zhang Xiaobai didn't have a good impression of Shi Chuan.

Every time they meet, he always wears a stinky face as if someone owes him money.

Zhang Xiaobai knew that Ishikawa had always looked down on him, and even now, when he introduced Zhao Tianhao to open a mine with his family, he didn't take himself seriously.

For this kind of person, why do you care about his life and death?

As the days passed, Zhang Xiaobai was still the same as before, following Niu Er to drive the Jetta around the Tangcheng area.

Once you know this place, the next step is to think about what industry you want to do.

Before you know it, the end of the year has arrived.

Chinese New Year, the day of going home.

Zhao Tianhao and Cheng Jianhui returned to Los Angeles, Niu Er also returned to his hometown, and Zhang Xiaobai was already at home.

Although he was at home, his home was gone, and there was a cart of stones unloaded next to the old willow, which was just used to block the way.

Zhang Xiaobai doesn't want to build a house now, even if he does, he can't live in it, and next to it is the road that is noisy during the day and night, and he can't live in a solid place.

On the night of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Wolong Village was not lively.

It is customary to eat dumplings at night and set off firecrackers before eating dumplings.

In the past, there were only a few sounds of hanging whips, and occasionally a few second kicking sounds, so there was no need to ask whether it was the Liu family or the Shi family.

In recent years, it has been different, people have money in their hands, not only pay attention to food, drink, clothing and housing, but also pay attention to pomp and circumstance to save face.

Eating early, just after six o'clock began to set off firecrackers, not only firecrackers two kicks, but also fireworks in the yard lit.

This is the noodle you want, the more prosperous the sky above your home, the bigger the face.

You sing and I'll appear.

From six o'clock onwards, it continued to ring.

Zhang Xiaobai ate with the Shi family, the dumplings were all served on the table, and the good dishes and wine were also arranged, but there was still no intention of firing the guns.

Shi Lei stared at the west in the courtyard.

Zhang Xiaobai asked, "What are you waiting for?" ”

Shi Lei said with a smile: "Wait for Liu Zhongjia, we will release them when they want." ”

Zhang Xiaobai suddenly realized, this is a comparison.

At the beginning, these two families were the richest people in Wolong Village, and they are still now, and no one has been convinced by anyone.

Shi Lei said: "Xiaobai, after a while, his house will start to release, and we will open it immediately." ”

Zhang Xiaobai smiled: "Is it interesting? ”

Shi Lei said solemnly: "Interesting! I'll do this for the New Year. ”

As he spoke, fireworks went off somewhere in the west.

Shi Lei hurriedly said: "Come on, come on, start!" ”

Zhang Xiaobai and Shi Lei were in charge, and the whole family came out to watch.

Not only this family, but also the whole Wolong Village also paid attention to this competition, and the two families did not let off fireworks as soon as other families set off fireworks.

It started at seven o'clock, and it was a full ten minutes, and it didn't stop.

Don't underestimate ten minutes, it's all about money, and it's good for ordinary people to just put a dozen, a matter of a few minutes.

Shi Lei brought a few more fireworks and said with a smile: "It's a bit interesting, it seems that I lost last year, and I want to get back some face this year, then I have to play with you!" ”

There was a game last year, and after ten minutes, the Liu family was silent.

Twenty minutes into it, it finally stopped.

Shi Lei laughed and said, "Let's continue, let's leave it for another five minutes!" ”

The battle ended in victory.

To the west of the village, Liu Zhi looked at the east viciously, "Damn, you wait for me, this field will be found one day!" ”

Liu Zhong sighed and said: "Son, don't tease them, now that Zhang Xiaobai is back, we can't fight!" ”

Liu Zhi shouted: "Come back, come back, I'm still afraid of him?" After the New Year, I'll clean up Ishikawa's stupid x first. ”

Liu Zhong walked back to the house, drank wine and ate dumplings.

After the two families competed, the highlight came.

There is no richer village in Wolong than them, but there are two mines.

At 8:08 a.m., fireworks began at the same time at both mines.

After an hour of going on, the villagers went to their houses to watch the feast.

After eating, Zhang Xiaobai and the little couple returned to the villa and turned on the TV to watch the Spring Festival Gala.

That is, it should be the right time, but there is actually nothing to see.

Looking at the TV, Zhang Xiaobai asked, "When will we be able to access the Internet?" ”

It would be nice if there was an Internet, you could chat with your friends, and you could also play CS or something.

Shi Lei said: "I'll ask after the New Year, Xiuxiu is boring at home, and she can play with a computer." ”

Since eleven o'clock, Zhang Xiaobai has been too busy, and the New Year's text messages on his mobile phone keep ringing.

Seeing that it was sent in groups, Zhang Xiaobai deleted it directly, and if he sincerely greeted the New Year, then he would reply to one immediately.

After twelve o'clock, Zhang Xiaobai made a few phone calls to greet the New Year, Xu Ma, Yao Yuan, and Peng Cheng.

Of course, there are more phone calls, and they are all those friends.

The busy work lasted until more than two o'clock, and then it gradually stopped.

The first day of the Lunar New Year, the day of New Year's greetings.

Zhang Xiaobai's family is an outsider, has no relatives, and did not pay New Year's greetings on this day before, but just kowtowed a few times to grandma, and grandma will wrap some New Year's money in red paper to be auspicious.

Early in the morning, Shi Lei took Xiuxiu to visit the New Year, and Zhang Xiaobai went to the grave with good wine and cigarettes.

Kneel before the three graves.

Zhang Xiaobai put wine and cigarettes in front of his grandfather's grave, and put fruit in front of his mother's grave.

"Grandma and grandma, happy New Year! It's 2003, and I'm twenty-five! There is a happy event to tell you, the child has a partner, grandma has seen it, and he looks so good! The people are amazing! I'll take her to you when I get a chance! ”

"This year, I will work hard to develop my career, I will avenge our family's hatred as soon as possible, build a good house when the time comes, and you will go home and see when you miss me!"

"Xiaobai is very good, you don't have to worry about it!"

After chatting for a while, Zhang Xiaobai stood up and went back.

In the next few days, people were busy walking relatives, and Zhang Xiaobai drove the car to continue to walk outside.

On the sixth day of the first lunar month, Niu Er returned to Wolong Village.

Zhang Xiaobai said: "Second brother, I finally figured out what to do!" ”
