Chapter 1077 Swing Dance
After Han Li left, Hao Hongmin and her daughter discussed for such a long time and finally decided to write a letter back to Hao Jianghe.
Now that they have figured out Hao Jianghe's background, many things will be easy to say. What they are discussing now is how to write this letter.
In Sijiucheng, there are occasional firecrackers and children's laughter and fighting in Mianhua Hutong.
When the Han family wrapped the dumplings and put them in the pot, Han Li was sent to the yard to set off firecrackers.
At this time, Da Ming and Xiao Ming's ears were covered tightly, but the two little ones didn't seem to appreciate it and wanted to get rid of the adults' hands.
The crackling and crackling sound of firecrackers symbolized that this year is about to pass.
After the firecrackers, the table of the Han family was soon filled with various delicious dishes, a large pot of dumplings, and twelve bowls placed in a circle. Even Da Ming and Xiao Ming had their own bowls.
Han's father and Han Li were drinking slowly. Han's mother scraped a little batter on the dumplings with chopsticks and smeared it into Da Ming and Xiao Ming's mouths one by one.
The two little ones not only did not appreciate it, but burst into tears.
But this time no one tried to comfort them. Everyone was laughing at the two brothers.
At this time, the 12-inch "BJ brand" black and white TV at home had just finished reporting on Zhonghe, and now it was playing the Peking Opera "Three Views of the Imperial Sister".
Staying up late is a must, especially this year with Da Ming and Xiao Ming. Even if Han Li didn't want to stay up late to light the New Year's firecrackers first, neither Han's father, Han's mother nor the Yun sisters agreed.
After setting off firecrackers, you can take a nap, and then it will be the process year after year.
But this year, there are two brothers, Da Ming and Xiao Ming, in the family, and everyone's generation has been upgraded by one level, and Han's father and Han's mother also have two more people who kowtow to them.
Of course, Da Ming and Xiao Ming were held by the Yun sisters to kowtow to Han's father and mother to wish them a happy new year. Afterwards, the two little ones received their first lucky money in their lives.
The next step was to wish their grandfather a happy new year, but Da Ming and Xiao Ming were too young to be brought to the grave, so they could only tell their grandfather that the family was prosperous and that two grandchildren had been added this year when they kowtowed to the grave.
Han Li then went to visit the streets and alleys to wish him a happy new year, and finally gathered a group of young people to drink and play cards together.
This year, people who came to Han Li's house to wish him a happy new year basically gave red envelopes to Da Ming and Xiao Ming, among which some people from the street office and the bus company gave the most generous red envelopes.
Others in the family could go anywhere they wanted today, but there was still nothing new in Sijiu City at this time, and the various temple fairs remained the same as before.
So everyone went to a few places nearby and went home disappointed to play cards, watch TV, listen to music, and amuse their children.
On the second day of the New Year, Han Li went to Lanmian Hutong to wish his eldest sister a happy new year, just like last year.
This year, Dai Yuncai, the sister of my eldest brother-in-law, did not come to get involved, but I heard that she is still an unemployed youth because of some reasons in her file.
Dai Yuncai had a quarrel with Dai's eldest sister-in-law Lou Fengxia over some trivial matters some time ago. That time, Dai Yuncai, the eldest sister of the Dai family who likes to meddle in her mother's family affairs, happened to be at home.
The two sisters of the Dai family quarreled and quarreled, and finally pushed Dai's eldest sister-in-law to the ground and pulled out a strand of hair.
At that time, Dai's eldest sister-in-law Lou Fengxia went back to her mother's house crying. The two sisters were happy, but they also stirred up a hornet's nest.
Because more than an hour later, several brothers and sisters, sisters-in-law, and sisters-in-law of Lou Fengxia came to kill.
The men of the Lou family held the scene nearby and prevented the people in the courtyard from meddling in other people's business.
The women of the Lou family went up and beat up the sisters Dai Yunxia and Dai Yuncai.
In the end, it was Dai's mother who kept saying good things, and the people of the Lou family let them go with a grumble.
That time, Han was in school, and her husband Dai Jing'an and his brother were at work. If they were not at home, they could not stand by and watch. This matter might have become even more serious.
However, it was precisely because of that incident that Dai Yuncai has been very honest recently.
At the same time, Dai's father and mother felt that they had to find something for their daughter to do, and there was no hope for a job for the time being.
So the old couple paid for Dai Yuncai to find a tailor, and promised to buy her a sewing machine and a hemming machine after she became an apprentice, and rent an empty room in the neighbor's house to open a small tailor shop for her.
On the second day of the Chinese New Year, Yun Yingying and her family were waiting at home for their brother-in-law Yun Chengpeng to come and wish my father and mother a happy new year.
However, when Han Li came back, his brother-in-law had already left. At this time, he was taking his wife and son to the Yun family to wish a happy new year.
This year, Da and Xiao Ming received far more red envelopes than the two given by their grandparents, but also from several enthusiastic neighbors in the same building.
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, Han Li played cards, drank, and boasted with a group of neighbors.
On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Han's family of three returned to her parents' home to pay New Year's greetings, and it was also the day Han Li got her brother-in-law drunk.
However, Han Li soon regretted this move this year, because the older his nephew Zhuangzhuang got, the more he couldn't sit still at home. After dinner, he kept yelling that he wanted to go out and play.
Han Li got his brother-in-law Dai Jing'an drunk and fell asleep. Han's father didn't drink much, but after dinner he took his teacup and went to play chess with the neighbors.
The rule of Sijiu City is that it is forbidden to beat or scold children during the Chinese New Year, and Xiao Zhuangzhuang is not willing to listen to advice at this age.
So the task of taking Xiao Zhuangzhuang out for a stroll and playing fell on Han Li.
With Han Li's laziness during the Chinese New Year, it is impossible for him to carry Xiao Zhuangzhuang to a place too far.
As soon as he went out, Han Li locked his target on the edge of Beihaizi, because there would be many people playing there during the Chinese New Year, some skating, some singing operas, in short, there were all kinds of things, and there were also some public mobile stalls.
Han Li planned to take Zhuangzhuang there for a walk, buy him something and come back.
However, when Han Li came to the edge of Beihaizi, he found that not only was there music coming from the front, but also a large group of people surrounded that area.
Some people around said it was immoral, and some people shouted what kind of swing dance was this?
Whether it was immoral or swing dance, Han Li wanted to go in and take a look at it at this moment.
So Han Li let Zhuangzhuang sit on his shoulders, holding his head with his hands, and he grabbed his legs and squeezed in like a snake swimming in the paddy field.
Han Li went in and found that it was a group of people dancing "disco", a lively open-air disco party.
These people were men and women, unemployed young people wearing bell-bottom pants, high heels, and frog-eye glasses, literary young people, and unit employees wearing decent Zhongshan suits, Chinese and foreigners.
They ignored the crowds around them and twisted together like crazy, and from time to time you could hear a few weird English sentences.
Many of them didn't know how to dance "disco" at all. They only knew to twist their buttocks and shake their upper limbs with others, but they seemed to enjoy this feeling.
Among the onlookers around, some were excited to join in, some were timid, and some were contemptuous.
However, most of them criticized their behavior, despised this kind of "twisting buttocks" dance that looked like sieve bran, and believed that dancing this kind of dance in broad daylight was immoral and shameful. In short, it was a collection of all kinds of derogatory words.
Some onlookers recognized someone in the dance group. Those who were on good terms with them would go up and pull the other person away directly, while those who were not so close would curse and say it was shameful to inform his (her) family.
Han Li looked at the group of people in the middle. In front of the people wearing gray, dark blue, and military green, many of them deliberately put on a show-off and arrogant expression. He immediately shook his head and squeezed out with Zhuang Zhuang.
After Han Li squeezed out, he saw some enthusiastic people. They had already called the administrator and the police station.
However, when they saw that there were foreigners among these people, they were a little tricky, and finally they could only wait and see. Maintain order on the periphery.
At this time, Han Li heard the recorder change another song, and suddenly he didn't want to stay in such a chaotic scene, so he took Zhuangzhuang to buy a windmill and a sugar man and went home.
When Han Li returned home, his brother-in-law was almost sober, and the two sat together to drink tea and chat.
During the chat, Han Li remembered the electronic watches he had decomposed the space, and talked a little about the situation in the south. After seeing that his brother-in-law didn't have that idea, he stopped talking about it.
The next day, the fifth day of the New Year, was also the fifth day of the Fourth Nine City.
Today, relatives can't be visited, but it doesn't prevent neighbors from getting together to play cards, drink, and chat.
Han Li spent the day like this, during which he and Yu Daqiang and a few close friends revealed a little about the south.
But they are all employed people, and their life of guaranteed income makes them have no desire to take risks, or that cell, so Han Li's advice failed again.
This also made Han Li feel a little rash, and at the same time he was a little worried about the more than 900 electronic watches left in his decomposition space.
It was the sixth day of the Chinese New Year, and Han Li had nothing to do today. He planned to drink tea, read books, and play the piano at home.
When it was almost noon, there was a sound of a car engine outside, followed by a harsh brake sound, and then Zhang Hailin's shout.
"Brother Han, Brother Han, are you home?"
Han Li was reading in the west wing at the moment, and he came out after hearing Zhang Hailin's shout.
When he came to the street gate, he saw that Liu Zhongcheng, Liu Zhongxin, Zhang Hailin, Zhang Ling, Hou Huidong, Hou Liru, Li Yunzhi, Li Yunhua, Guan Haijiao, Song Guanghui and all these people were here.
"You are all here today, Yunzhi, when did you come back from Shanghai?"
While talking and laughing, Han Li welcomed all the little guys who were about to enter college, but their gathering today brought Han Li several benefits.
