Chapter 119 Annual Meeting
New Year's Day.
That is January 1st in the Gregorian calendar.
Early in the morning, after getting up, Tan Yue went straight to the vegetable market next to the community.
Today, we are going back to the old house and the whole family will have dinner together. Tan Xin wants to eat chicken, and Tan Yue is also a little greedy, so he decided on a dish - spicy chicken.
However, since eating the last chicken that cost two hundred yuan, Tan Yue felt that other chickens had no taste, mainly because they were not chewy.
So he went to the vegetable market to pick chickens early in the morning. When he came to buy vegetables before, he remembered that there would be some free-range chickens in the countryside for sale, but they were more popular, so he couldn't buy them if he came late.
When he arrived at the vegetable market, after a long circle, Tan Yue found an uncle wearing a military coat in a not-so-conspicuous corner.
The uncle had a scruffy beard, but what attracted Tan Yue was the big rooster in the cage that looked very strong and lively.
Tan Yue has been cooking for several years, and he is not a novice in cooking. He can still distinguish between hormone chickens and chickens raised slowly at home.
After asking the uncle about the chicken, Tan Yue bought it without much bargaining.
After two popular shows, especially "Tonight's 80s Talk Show", he received a lot of bonuses. Although not much, it was not a small amount accumulated every month, so he didn't have to bargain with the uncle.
After buying the chicken, he asked the uncle to remove the feathers and cut it into pieces, put it in a plastic bag, and then Tan Yue took a taxi to the old house in the suburbs.
When he got home, his sister-in-law An Nuan and the little girl Tan Xin had already arrived and were chatting with their parents.
Tan Yue walked over and said with a smile: "What are you talking about? This is the chicken I bought. It should be no worse than the last time. Let's all try it later."
An Nuan took the chicken and sent it into the kitchen.
Mom smiled and said, "Just now your sister-in-law said she wanted to buy a car. She usually takes the bus to go everywhere, and it's not convenient to bring a little girl with her. It will be easier to move around with a car."
"But your father and I don't know much about cars. If you have time, help your sister-in-law check it online."
As soon as Mom finished speaking, An Nuan came out of the kitchen and smiled, "Don't bother Xiao Yue. He is busy with work now and has a tight schedule. Let him work with peace of mind."
Tan Yue raised his hand and flicked Tan Xin's head, turned his head to look at An Nuan, and smiled, "Sister-in-law, it's okay. We will have a reunion next year. We finished two weeks of work this week and will be next week. It's easier. I'll have time to check for you then. Besides, many of my colleagues have also bought cars, so I can ask them for their opinions. "
An Nuan didn't insist after hearing this, and said, "Don't look at any good car. I have only one requirement, which is to be able to travel, and of course the safety performance must be guaranteed."
"Well, the price should be within 100,000 yuan."
"I heard from other teachers in our school that some domestic cars within 100,000 yuan have good performance."
Tan Yue nodded and said, "Okay, I'll pay attention to it then."
While talking, he teased the little girl.
The morning of December 30th passed like this.
My mother and sister-in-law put the prepared meals on the table one by one, with a large pot of chicken in the middle. The spicy chicken was naturally inseparable from the pot cake.
The fragrant cake, before the meal started, Tan Yue broke off a piece and ate half with Tan Xin.
Dad took out a bottle of wine from the cabinet. Mom usually supervised them strictly. If there were only two of them at home, they were never allowed to drink.
Today, Tan Yue came back, and it was New Year's Day, so he still had the right to drink a glass of wine.
Dad took out four cups, first poured a small cup for each of Mom and sister-in-law, and then took Tan Yue's cup to fill it for Tan Yue. Of course, Tan Yue couldn't let Dad pour the wine, so he took the bottle and filled it for himself and Dad.
Beside him, Tan Xin saw that everyone had a wine glass, but she didn't, smacked her lips, and seemed a little unwilling, but she was used to this scene, just buried her head in eating chicken.
After clinking glasses, Tan Yue took a bite of the dish, looked at An Nuan, and said, "Sister-in-law, do you plan to change your computer?"
An Nuan's computer was bought when she just came to school to be a teacher, and it has been many years.
It should be more laggy to use it now, right? And the performance is definitely outdated.
An Nuan shook her head and said, "I haven't thought about it yet. I plan to use the money I saved to buy a car first. I'm not in a hurry to buy a computer, and I usually just make some PPT courseware, which I don't use much."
Tan Yue nodded and said nothing more.
On the dining table, in addition to the big pot of chicken in the middle, there were seven or eight dishes placed around in order.
In the past, there were only four or five dishes on weekends, but today it was more abundant.
After dinner, in the afternoon, Tan Yue read some discussion posts about "Tonight's 80s Talk Show" on the Internet.
As the show became more and more popular and famous, not only local forums would discuss "Tonight's 80s Talk Show", but some well-known domestic forums also had topics about "Tonight's 80s Talk Show", and many people participated in the discussion.
It was a bit cold outside, so everyone sat in the house and chatted.
Tan Yue chatted with his family while browsing his phone. In winter, it gets dark earlier and earlier. At around 3 o'clock in the afternoon, An Nuan and Tan Xin had to go back.
In the past, when Tan Yue didn't come back for New Year's Day, An Nuan would stay and bring Tan Xin to spend New Year's Day with the old couple.
The old couple was lonely, and An Nuan and Tan Xin depended on each other.
It’s just that Tan Yue has to stay here to accompany his parents this year. Although there are enough rooms in the old hospital, it’s a bit inconvenient for An Nuan to stay now that Tan Yue has moved in.
Tan Yue sent An Nuan and Tan Xin to the taxi and turned around and walked back.
He said goodbye to his parents and went back to his room to take an afternoon nap.
New Year’s Day has passed,
The new year, January 7, Thursday.
This day is the annual meeting that all the staff of Jishui City TV Station have been thinking about.
The studio of Jishui City TV Station is not enough to accommodate so many people, so it rented Studio No. 1 from the provincial TV station.
Tan Yue dressed neatly today, and even went to get a haircut yesterday. He arrived at the unit in high spirits.
It was not time yet, so he did not go directly to Studio No. 1 of the provincial TV station. He went to the fourth floor of the "Tonight 80s Talk Show" work area to stand for a while and chat with his colleagues.
Several colleagues were concerned about what awards they could get today, and whether they could get the "collective award".
There were more than one person who wanted a new phone.
As for the group award, Tan Yue felt that it should be no problem.
Firstly, the ratings of "Tonight's 80s Talk Show" are the highest in Taiwan.
Secondly, he met with the station director a few days ago, and Director Chen asked him about his opinion on this year's annual meeting.
This made Tan Yue look forward to what award he could get at this year's annual meeting.
