Chapter 408: Why not write a huge sum of money?
The location Jiang Shuo chose for the fireworks display was the park square at the foot of Pushan.
The square is away from the buildings and faces the lake.
Taking into account the fire hazard, the Pushan Fire Brigade is responsible for the fireworks.
The first firework was lit at 11: in the evening. The family sat in the sky garden on the roof of the main building, eating, drinking and watching the fireworks. The atmosphere was lively and warm.
Xie Jiang raised his head, listened to the laughter around him, and quietly watched the fireworks in the sky. He inexplicably felt a strong sense of belonging.
This is the home and life she wants.
There will be no more endless fighting and scheming, only peace and happiness.
The fireworks lasted for a full twenty minutes, and the last set of family joy exploded in the night sky. The clock struck midnight and the new year arrived.
"Happy New Year, Jiang Jiang." Jiang Yue took out a card and handed it to Xie Jiang. He rubbed her head and said with a smile, "I've made up for the New Year's money you received in the past 25 years."
Xie Jiang took it with a smile, not being polite at all, "Thank you, Third Brother."
25 years of New Year’s money must be a huge sum of money.
It is better to give me a huge sum of money than to ask about my well-being. Third Brother really likes me.
After Jiang Yue came Jiang Jian and Jiang Shuo, as well as several elders including his second uncle. They collected more than a dozen cards.
Xie Jiang accepted all of them with a smile, and also gave some New Year's money to his younger cousin.
After giving everything, she found Zhou Yunyu looking at her. She smiled and took out the card she had specially prepared and handed it to her, "This is for you."
"Me too?" Zhou Yunyu opened his eyes wide in disbelief.
"If you don't want it, give it back." Xie Jiang reached out to grab it angrily.
She prepared a full ten million.
"No." Zhou Yunyu smiled and quickly put the card away.
My sister’s money cannot be returned even if I don’t spend it. It’s her New Year’s money.
Xie Jiang chuckled and went back to his room to sleep.
Zhou Yunyu watched her figure disappear from his sight, curled the corners of his lips, and walked briskly back to his room.
"No Escape" was officially released on the first day of the new year.
By 1 p.m., the total box office had reached 1.3 million yuan, of which million yuan was pre-sales.
More film reviews appeared, and Xie Jiang's stunning performance completely dumbfounded the fans of other artists who had endured for several months and attempted to attack their poor acting skills.
The entry for Xie Jiang's acting skills broke through the siege and directly entered the top ten on the list of Spring Festival Gala programs.
Xie Jiang was still reading movie reviews when she received a call from Sister Wu. She was baffled to hear that she was trending on the internet. "I haven't even left the house, how did I end up on the internet?"
"'No Escape' is going to be a box office hit, and netizens are discussing your acting skills." Sister Wu was extremely excited. "There's an announcement..."
"No." Xie Jiang refused decisively.
On the second day of the New Year, I went to the orphanage to pay New Year's greetings and then slept at home for a day. On the third day, I went to see the male model. From the fourth to the seventh day, I continued to sleep at home. Everything was arranged.
"The announcement is in Ningcheng, so you don't have to fly to Jingcheng." Sister Wu gritted her teeth. "It'll be live for two hours, and the invited guests are the champion and runner-up of the college basketball league."
The faces of Ling Yuncheng and Jin Yan flashed through Xie Jiang's mind, and he calmly asked, "When?"
Ling Yuncheng sent a New Year's greeting message last night and called her this morning because she wanted to meet him in person.
Zhou Yunyu received New Year's money, and so did his younger brother Yuncheng.
Zhou Yunyu was holding a tray of milk tea and pastries, standing behind the blooming climbing roses. She felt a sharp pain in her chest as she listened to Xie Jiang and Sister Wu confirm the time for the announcement.
My sister has too many brothers, which is a bit worrying.
He knew that Ling Yuncheng's feelings towards Xie Jiang were simply gratitude and admiration. He had admiration but not love for her, and he was still very jealous.
He didn't really care about the others.
Ji Shuyan looks like a monster and his abilities are comparable to hers, but her sister has no interest in him at all.
He waited patiently until Xie Jiang finished the call, then closed his eyes, calmed himself down, and walked out as if nothing had happened. "Sister, are you taking another job?"
"I have an announcement to attend, a competition." Xie Jiang raised his head with a smile, his clear and sparkling eyes reflecting his figure like a spring. "If you're bored, you can come with me."
After she terminated her contract with her original company, she asked Wang Yao to come over, but she has not arranged a job for her yet.
"Then I'll go with you." The remaining gloom on Zhou Yunyu's face dissipated, and she said cheerfully, "There are still three hours before the movie starts. Do you want to take a nap?"
"No need. If there's no traffic today, we can just go there on time." Xie Jiang gestured for him to sit down, a smile on his face. "Is there anywhere you want to go? After the movie, we'll go back to Yuting and stay. Big brother, big sister-in-law, and the children will stay in the old house with grandpa."
My second uncle and his family returned to Beijing after breakfast.
All their contacts and social networks are in Beijing. They have to go to pay New Year's greetings on the second day of the Lunar New Year. Even if they have prepared New Year gifts in advance, it is not convenient for them to fly back on the second day of the Lunar New Year.
"I don't have anywhere I want to go. Wherever my sister is, that's where I'll be." Zhou Yunyu picked up her cup of milk tea, took a sip slowly, and said casually, "After the director passed away, I have no home."
He and the dean's grandmother depended on each other for many years. Only after his grandmother passed away did his scumbag father take him back to the Zhou family.
No one in the Zhou family welcomed him. His stepmother and the illegitimate son used every possible means to torture and humiliate him.
That's not home, it's hell.
In order to break free from the control of the Zhou family, he endured for several years before making Xianyun bigger and stronger. He almost couldn't hold on several times in the middle, but Li Mu and others always supported him.
The only friends he can treat sincerely are Tang Yue and Li Mu.
After meeting Xie Jiang, he found his twin sister and his life began to become more colorful.
He liked to see her happy face while eating, and liked to see her serious and powerful face while working.
What he liked even more was that she always called him Tingshu no matter what the occasion.
That was the name given by the director's grandmother. Li Mu was used to calling her that. It was completely subconscious.
Just like her, even after returning to the Jiang family, she did not change her name.
I heard from the director of the orphanage that she was originally going to be named Xu.
Considering that she had stayed in the hospital for a week because of a fever and was taken care of by Aunt Xie and Aunt Jiang, she took their surnames and named herself Xie Jiang.
"Then you can follow me." Xie Jiang held the milk tea, leaned lazily against the backrest, squinting her eyes comfortably, "But you can't follow me on the third day of junior high school. We are sisters forming a group."
Qu Huan booked a flight in advance and flew over on the third day of the Lunar New Year to watch the male model dance. Lin Yunyi was also coming.
Fortunately, the covered bridge only accepts female guests.
If Big Brother and the others knew that their group's party was to watch male models dance, they would probably be in trouble for a month.
"I'll listen to my sister." Zhou Yunyu curled the corners of his lips and relaxed.
The old house's greenhouse had a new batch of flowers after the wedding banquet. The newly cultivated climbing roses had a light and elegant fragrance, and the fragrance concentration in the air in the greenhouse was just right.
"Is Sui Sui coming back to pay New Year's greetings?" Xie Jiang thought of Xu Sui Sui and asked casually, "How is the Yan family treating her?"
Yan Wenjin's feelings for Xu Suisui are genuine, but the same cannot be said for the Yan family. After all, the Yan family is a wealthy family in Beijing.
Even if it is just a wealthy family in the middle circle, it can still beat the Ningcheng Zhou family.
Now the Zhou family in Ningcheng only has Zhou Yunyu. If the Yan family treats Xu Suisui differently based on her personality, they may not treat her sincerely.
Before the two siblings recognized each other, Yan Wenjin got married to her in secret, and no one in the Yan family knew about it.
"It's okay. If their family wants to expand their business, they can only rely on Xianyun." Zhou Yunyu closed his eyes and said nonchalantly, "Xianyun is Suisui's confidence. As long as Xianyun doesn't fall, the Yan family won't dare to give her a hard time."
He arranged a female bodyguard to protect his sister's safety, and at the same time investigated whether the Yan family was really good to Xu Suisui.
"Yan Wenjin is a good person. His parents have good personalities and character. The rest of the Yan family is not." Xie Jiang thought of the evidence he had found for the Jin family and reminded, "Tell Yan Wenjin that if his third uncle doesn't deal with it, the Jin family will take action."
Zhou Yunyu suddenly opened his eyes and asked in a slightly higher voice, "Jin family?"
The Jin family is not in business. Yan Wenjin's third uncle is a scoundrel who has opened seven or eight clubs in Beijing. Her third aunt is married for the third time and is said to be of ordinary family background.
