Middle age: leisurely life in the entertainment industry

"You're talking about us Chinese, how about having a lively reunion dinner as a family on New Year's Eve and then watching the Spring Festival Gala together? But that brat in my family insists on going to the movies on New Year's Eve! It's a Hollywood blockbuster , I finally got the tickets, and I didn’t eat the New Year’s Eve dinner. I wanted to eat out with my girlfriend and then watch a movie together, which made me angry.”

Yu Dongqing knew that the Hollywood blockbuster that Boss Ma was talking about was a science fiction action film called "New Era Killer". Domestic action star Li Yunjie plays an important role in the film, which will be released in China on New Year's Eve.

After listening to his words, Yu Dongqing smiled and said: "Nowadays young people like to watch Hollywood blockbusters, with fast pace and exciting scenes."

"Hey, we don't even want to get together with the whole family, let alone keep up the New Year's Eve. Today's young people don't want to celebrate the New Year anymore."

Of course, the two of them were just chatting, and there was no answer for this kind of thing.

Yu Dongqing returned to his home after dinner. At nine o'clock in the evening, Mingliang drove back with her two children and some bean sprouts and bean buns. The somewhat deserted courtyard became lively.

Of course the son was very happy to see his father. After the father and son played for a while, Lele suddenly said: "Dad, my sister made grandpa and grandma unhappy today."

"Um?"

Yu Dongqing looked up at Yu Tongtong who was sitting on the other side of the sofa playing with her mobile phone.

"What's wrong? Tongtong, what made grandpa and grandma unhappy?"

Yu Tongtong didn't answer yet. Meili, who had just packed her luggage in the bedroom, came out and said with a smile: "It's not a big deal. Aren't we going to my parents' house for a reunion dinner on New Year's Eve this year? Tongtong said she didn't want to go, but she wanted to My parents were a little unhappy about going to the movies.”

This again?

"Are you watching "Killers of the New Era"?" Yu Dongqing asked.

"Yes, dad, you don't know, tickets are hard to buy. I asked my classmates to help me grab them several times before I got them." Yu Tongtong defended.

"Then we have to watch it on New Year's Eve? Will it look different in a few days?" Yu Dongqing's tone gradually became serious.

"I want to watch it sooner. It's starring Li Yunjie." Yu Tongtong put down her phone and muttered.

"No! Refund the ticket! I have to go to grandma and grandpa's house to celebrate the New Year on New Year's Eve, and I'm not allowed to go anywhere at night!"

Yu Dongqing's voice suddenly became serious.

Yu Tongtong was stunned.

My aunt didn’t object, and finally my grandma and grandpa agreed. Unexpectedly, my dad disagreed!

It’s rare to see my dad speak to me in such a strong voice!

Meili wanted to help but was stopped by Yu Dongqing's stern eyes.

Yu Tongtong was stunned for a while, and finally took out her mobile phone and started typing.

"What are you doing?!"

"Tell your classmates to get a refund!" Yu Tongtong replied angrily, glared at her brother fiercely, turned around and returned to her room, closing the door with a bang.

The child sighed brightly, then turned to Yu Dongqing and told Yu Dongqing: "Tongtong can go and see it if he wants. The Chinese New Year is coming soon and it will make everyone unhappy. Aren't all children nowadays like this?" "

"I can't take care of other people's children, but I have to take care of my children! At least I still need family affection, right?" After Yu Dongqing finished speaking, he glared at her again: "They are all used to it!"

"Hey, why are you blaming me again?! Lele, let's go to mom's study to play!" After saying that, he couldn't help but pick up his son and walked out of the living room.

Yu Dongqing is the only one left in the room now.

He had a wry smile on his face, why was he like this?

In her boudoir, Yu Tongtong was lying on the bed chatting with her classmates, accusing her father of his "atrocities"

"Xia Yunxing, I kind of hate my dad now. He's rigid, dogmatic, and an antique!"

"Actually, your dad did the right thing. We were a little careless. You shouldn't go to the movies on New Year's Eve. You should stay at home with your parents and elders. They value this very much."

"Okay, Xia Yunxing, you rebelled so quickly? You actually spoke to my father!"

"No, I think we should just consider our own feelings? If you don't watch the movie on New Year's Eve, you can watch it on the first or second day of the new year. The movie is still the same movie, and the content will not change. There is no need to offend everyone. Not happy."

Yu Tongtong was silent for a while, then typed again: "You will be alone at home on New Year's Eve, how lonely you will be."

It turned out that Xia Yunxing's father wanted to go to the United States to negotiate with Powell's agent in person from a best-selling book by the well-known American writer Powell. He expected that he would not be able to come back in time for the Spring Festival.

The stepmother took her brother with her and returned to her hometown of Nanjing a few days ago to celebrate the New Year. As a result, the boy stayed alone in Yanjing City.

Xia Yunxing waited a while before receiving the news:

"It's okay. I'm used to being alone, Tongtong. I envy you for having parents who love you. You should cherish it and don't make them angry."

"You're the only one who can say it! I know!"

Tongtong typed it out, then thought about it and typed another line: "How about you come to our house to celebrate the New Year? Anyway, my dad and aunt also know you."

"Huh? Isn't this inconvenient?"

"What's the inconvenience? It's not like I don't have room for you at home! I'll go and apologize to my dad in a moment, and tell you about your situation by the way!"

"Tongtong, I don't think it's appropriate. I'm worried that your dad and aunt may misunderstand."

"What's the misunderstanding? I didn't fall in love with you prematurely! I'm not even afraid, so what are you afraid of? Are you willing to come? A grown man's mother-in-law."

"Yes, I do!"

Yu Tongtong was a straightforward girl. She immediately jumped out of bed and came to the living room to apologize to her father who was sitting on the sofa drinking tea.

Of course Yu Dongqing is very happy about her daughter's change of attitude.

To be honest, he couldn't bear to talk about his daughter.

My daughter is a sophomore in high school this year. After graduating from high school, she decided to study abroad. After graduating from college, she doesn’t know where she will go.

Think about it, how many days can you spend with your daughter?

Some people say that when children go to college, especially girls, 95% of the time they spend with their parents has passed, and the remaining time is less than 5%, so they should cherish it.

But when she heard her daughter say she wanted to invite Xia Yunxing to her home for the New Year, she was stunned.

Oh my God, you brought it back so early?

"Dad, don't get me wrong. Xia Yunxing and I are just classmates. I think it's quite pitiful for him to spend the New Year alone at home."

Yu Tongtong quickly told her father Xia Yunxing's situation.

Celebrating the New Year alone in Yanjing?

Hmm. It's indeed a bit pitiful when you think about it.

If you refuse categorically, would it look too unkind?

"Okay." Yu Dongqing agreed.

"Dad, you are such a reasonable dad!" Yu Tongtong ran over and hugged Yu Dongqing's shoulders, laughing and running into her boudoir.

"I'll tell Xia Yunxing!"

"What did Tongtong want to say?" At this time, Meiliang pulled her son in and asked curiously after hearing this.

Yu Dongqing told his wife in detail what had just happened.

"Meiliang, do you think what I did just now was right? I let Tongtong's male classmate come to our house to celebrate the New Year?"

To be honest, Yu Dongqing feels a little regretful now.

Unexpectedly, Meimei said: "Husband, I think you did the right thing!"

Yu Dongqing was stunned and lowered her voice:

"Aren't you worried about Tongtong's puppy love?"
