From White Box To Supervision

Chapter 58: New Year (Part 1)

Zhang Beichuan did not expect that his sister and the others would come to him, and he was not prepared at all, but Zhang Beichuan insisted on cleaning, and the house was not too messy.

After bringing them in, Zhang Beichuan boiled a pot of water and brought it over, and took a few cups, because Zhang Beichuan lived alone all the time, and the cups were only disposable paper cups.

“Strange, I remember that there are still tea leaves left here, why are they gone.” Zhang Beichuan rummaged through the boxes and turned the cabinets, but couldn’t find any tea leaves, so he had to pour plain boiled water in the end.

“Sister, and Yi Qiao, why did you remember me here?” Zhang Beichuan handed the paper cup over.

“It’s been a long time since you went back to see your sister and me. If you don’t come, won’t I come to see you here?” Zhang Zilin looked at Zhang Beichuan and said angrily.

“Well, am I busy? I don’t have time.” Zhang Beichuan scratched his head and said embarrassedly.

“Busy? But aren’t you on vacation now? Could it be that you don’t have time to go back?” Zhang Zilin took a sip.

“Uh, let’s not talk about this, isn’t my brother-in-law here?” Zhang Beichuan bluntly changed the subject.

“He worked overtime on New Year’s Day, and it was just me and Yiqiao who came here.” Zhang Zilin smiled and said, “I also just knew that District 11 is celebrating the Spring Festival at this time, but I didn’t expect it to catch up with this time.”

“Sister, you shouldn’t leave in a hurry.” Zhang Beichuan asked.

Zhang Yiqiao smiled and said, “Uncle, we plan to stay with you for a few days. We won’t leave so quickly for the time being.”

“Okay.” Zhang Beichuan smiled and said, “Let me entertain you in the past few days, and celebrate the Spring Festival in District 11.”

“Okay.” Zhang Yiqiao cheered.

“Don’t listen to her nonsense, I just came to see you and see how you are doing.”

“Sister, you don’t have to worry about causing trouble for me. It’s too late for me to be happy when you come. Just stay for two more days. I’m the only one who feels lonely.”

“This… okay.” After Zhang Beichuan’s repeated persuasion, Zhang Zilin finally agreed to stay for two more days.

For dinner, Zhang Beichuan took them to a restaurant to eat Japanese food. The expensive Japanese food in China is very cheap locally. Zhang Beichuan has lived here for more than four years, and the people who are already familiar with him can no longer be familiar with them. , it is not a problem to find a delicious and affordable Japanese food.

“How are you doing in the company now? I remember you told me before that it seems to be working at Musashino Animation Company.”

After she was full, Zhang Zilin was very curious about Zhang Beichuan’s current condition, so she naturally asked.

“Well, the position is production.”

“It’s hard work.”

“It’s alright, after all, it’s only a year, so it’s natural to have more work.”

“Xiao Chuan, it must be very hard for you to stay here by yourself. You have graduated for a year now. Do you want to go back to China to work?”

Seeing Zhang Beichuan’s silence, Zhang Zilin hurriedly said again: “You don’t delay your development in China, there are still well-known animation companies in China, and the wages are higher than here, not to mention that we are with you, so I suggest you You can go back to China and find an animation company to do it.”

Hearing this, Zhang Beichuan was silent for a long time, then shook his head.

“That’s it,” Zhang Zilin saw Zhang Beichuan’s rejection, and she didn’t ask why, but she felt more distressed. As a sister, she understood Zhang Beichuan’s temper very well, and she would never give up easily if she recognized one thing. This is also for Zhang Beichuan’s good. At least, in China, he still has his own support, but in District 11, Zhang Zilin can’t help her younger brother.

I already owe Zhang Beichuan a lot, but now I can’t help.

The reason for Zhang Beichuan’s refusal is not that he is poor in China, but other reasons. One is that even if he returns to China, he will not be able to enter any good company according to his current qualifications, and the other is that he has worked in Musashino for more than half a year, and he really likes it. The atmosphere of Musashino is that I don’t want to leave. The third is that Zhang Beichuan is already a student of Superintendent Kinoshita. He admitted a few days ago that he will not leave and will continue to work in Musashino. Then he will not Untrustworthy.

“Mom, and uncle, eat, eat, I’m not full yet?” Seeing this, Zhang Yi happened to ease the atmosphere.

After they were full, the three went to the mall to buy ingredients for tomorrow. Zhang Beichuan didn’t buy any ingredients. Originally, Zhang Beichuan used to buy simple mustard noodles for Chinese New Year here in District 11. But since my sister came here Well, of course it can’t be.

“But how do you cook if you buy ingredients? Isn’t there a kitchen where you live?” Zhang Zilin asked.

“It’s fine to borrow Mr. Takada’s kitchen. Although it’s a little troublesome, it’s just not enough to buy kitchen utensils for a meal.” Zhang Beichuan said.

“It can only be this way.”

It was after eleven o’clock when I returned home after shopping. When I got home, Zhang Zilin started cleaning.

As a boy, Zhang Beichuan’s house is relatively clean, but for boys, it is inevitable that he is careless at times, so Zhang Zilin habitually holds meetings to clean up. .

Zhang Beichuan also helped when he saw it. In fact, it was not just their family, but UU reading www. People in District 11 of uukanshu.com will do a big cleaning today, which is a custom, which symbolizes cleaning up all the bad luck in the house and welcoming the new year.

“Xiao Chuan, what are you doing with a door in the bathroom?” Zhang Zilin saw a door pine in the bathroom.

“Oh, this.” Zhang Beichuan wiped off his sweat, and the ground was really tiring. Said: “This is going to be placed on the door in a while. Here in District 11, a door pine will be visited during the New Year to show good luck in the new year.”

The so-called door pine is made of bamboo and pine branches and wax plums using special methods, and the specific Zhang Beichuan is not very clear.

In ancient times, there was a saying in District 11 that gods lived on trees, so before the Chinese New Year, putting a door pine at the door of the house means “welcoming the gods”.

Many Chinese New Year customs in District 11 are influenced by Chinese factors, but there are also differences. For example, there will be a special custom of offering mirror cakes. Many people will worship them, but Zhang Beichuan will not. One is because it is too troublesome. The second is that I am not a local person, and I just follow the customs of the village during the New Year. What is the use of worshipping it? If you really want to worship it, it is more reliable to worship the Sanqing Buddha.

“Sister, you and Yiqiao should sleep at my place. Although the effect is small, it should be no problem to squeeze.” Zhang Beichuan took a new quilt.

“how about you?”

“I’ll just lay a floor.”

“It won’t be too cold, it’s winter again, or I’ll lay the floor.”

Zhang Beichuan hurriedly shook his head: “I can’t sleep with Yiqiao. I’m just saying that I can shrink to the wall table, it’s not too cold.”

“You were always in the same room with Yoshio when you were young.” Zhang Zilin teased.

“You also said that it was when I was a child, and now I happen to be nineteen years old. How can that be?”
