Today is not only their wedding banquet, but also a farewell banquet to some extent.

After returning to the capital to report on their work, they will return to Gaul. They may occasionally come to visit their relatives in the future, but that should be a few years later.

Thinking of the impending separation, Chris was reluctant to leave and talked to Jiang Si for a long time.

If Jiang Si hadn't reminded her not to miss the auspicious time, she would still be immersed in the mood of parting.

"What's an auspicious time?" Chris asked in confusion.

Jiang Si blinked and said, "I think you should go back and ask your Qin Shian about this question later."

It was getting late, and she should take the children back.

After a few more words, Jiang Si's gaze fell on Qin Shian, and Qin Shian also looked back at her frankly.

Jiang Si curled her lips and said, "I wish you happiness, a long and happy marriage, and a long and happy life together!"

Qin Shian was silent for a moment, then smiled with relief, "Thank you!"

All the past has been completely turned over with this sincere blessing and thank you.

…

When I got home, it was already past three in the afternoon.

In order to attend the wedding banquet, Jiang Si got up before four o'clock this morning.

Just now at the banquet, I was in a good mood and drank half a glass of red wine.

Seeing that she was a little dazed, Huo Tingzhou took her directly to the bedroom.

"You should get some sleep first. We'll have the New Year's Eve dinner later today. I'll call you when the meal is ready."

Jiang Si nodded, lay down in bed and fell asleep soon after.

When I woke up again, I was awakened by the crackling sound of firecrackers outside.

The New Year’s Eve dinner in Shanghai starts early, and people start eating before four in the afternoon.

But she was sleeping very soundly at that time and didn't hear anything.

"Mom, you're awake!" The two little guys couldn't wait to come in, and they ran over as soon as they heard the noise.

"Yeah, you're awake." Jiang Si smiled and rubbed their heads. "Why are there only the two of you? Where's your dad?"

The brother and sister blinked their eyes and said, "I don't know."

"Don't know?" Jiang Si looked at the two little guys suspiciously.

As he was speaking, Third Uncle's voice rang out from the kitchen, "Ah Zhong, you can start cooking now."

After being interrupted by them, Jiang Si forgot about it.

When I went to the kitchen, Uncle Zhong had already put on an apron.

Jiang Si just rolled up her sleeves to help, but was chased out by her uncle, "I'm here, play with the two children for a while."

Jiang Si had no choice but to nod in agreement.

The family never takes Chinese New Year too lightly. Even though there are only six of them including the two little ones, Uncle Zhong still prepared a large table full of food as he did in previous years.

There is chicken, duck, fish, seafood, seasonal vegetables, everything.

In the words of my third uncle, it doesn’t matter if you can’t finish it, this is called “surplus every year”!

When Huo Tingzhou came back, it was already dark outside. He was the one who prepared the following hard dishes.

Jiang Si also helped out for a while, just passing plates or taking seasonings.

The two little guys were not idle either. They worked hard to help their father and occasionally participated in the food tasting.

It is a rare opportunity to celebrate the New Year at the Jiang family’s old house this year. The whole family is very happy, especially the two little ones.

Children of this age love sweet things the most, and Shanghai cuisine hits the spot right on their lips.

After the New Year’s Eve dinner, the third uncle gave each of the four members of their family a bulging red envelope.

However, the red envelope only passed through their hands for a moment before the three of them very consciously handed it to Jiang Si.

Thinking that she still had to stay up all night to celebrate the New Year, Jiang Si decided to put these things away first.

I went upstairs and just sat down in front of the dressing table when Huo Tingzhou pushed the door open and came in.

I receive extra red envelopes from him every year, so this year is no surprise.

Originally she had no intention of demolishing it, but she saw something wrong in Huo Tingzhou's eyes.

So, in front of him, Jiang Si opened the red envelope with the words "May you be healthy and well every year" written on it.

There was only a fifty-cent note and a two-cent coin in it.

Fifty cents and two cents?

Jiang Si was stunned for a moment. This shouldn't be the case. His pocket money was increased this year, but he doesn't smoke or drink, so twenty-five yuan a month is not enough for him to spend.

When she was wondering, Huo Tingzhou suddenly pulled her hand——
