Amidst a lively clatter of firecrackers, the first New Year's Eve dinner of the 1980s was laid out before everyone.
Seeing the New Year's Eve dinner with more vegetables and less meat in front of them, both the Wei Jiang and Wei He families gasped.
Li Juan glanced up at the elderly couple. After Wei Dazhi retired, he originally didn't want to leave, but now that township enterprises were starting to sprout up over there, they really lacked people. They came to find Wei Dazhi, hoping he could come over to help out a bit, offering a pretty good salary.
This meant both the retirement pension and the salary from working at the township enterprise, which together were higher than their own combined income.
Li Juan wanted to make a sarcastic remark, but she held back, thinking that they came back for the New Year's Eve dinner also with a favor to ask of the old couple.
