After being reprimanded, the Meng family became much more obedient and well-behaved.

The people breathed a sigh of relief; thankfully, they weren't affected and could have a good New Year.

The Bai family, who had been making their move in secret, had already found a small house and, being wealthy and powerful, bought it directly.

Yunjiang is indeed a nice place with beautiful scenery. I'll come here often in the future and have a place to stay.

As the Lunar New Year approaches, the festive atmosphere on the streets is gradually becoming stronger.

This was Juanjuan's first time seriously preparing for the Chinese New Year, the kind where the whole family would have a lively and joyous celebration.

The child was so excited.

Juanjuan went out shopping with her parents to buy things they needed for the Chinese New Year.

Bai Yunqi was playing Dou Dizhu (a popular Chinese card game) with his two younger brothers.

He already had several strips stuck to his face, but he still wouldn't admit defeat, constantly muttering, "One more round!" "The last round!"

no way.

This game is so addictive! If you win, you want to keep playing; if you lose, you want to win again.

Bai Yun'an, who wanted to run but couldn't: ...

Thankfully, I didn't teach my older brother how to play mahjong.

Compared to being chased and harassed by my older brother, it's much easier to continue playing cards with him.

When Juanjuan returned, she saw her three older brothers still playing cards.

"Are you still playing? Let's do a big clean-up! Er Ya's family next door has already started!"

Juan, who isn't tired at all: "Let's get started too!"

Under the sunlight, the little girl holding the red lantern had her hair bathed in a warm glow. She looked radiant and had a bright smile that made people happy and delighted at first glance.

"Alright! Let's get started!"

Bai Yunqi truly lives up to his reputation as a passionate young (or old) cultivator in the world of immortal cultivation?

Inspired by her sister, she immediately got up and decided to go with her.

Bai Yunxing was naturally used to it; during the New Year, you definitely have to clean up yourself to feel like it's the New Year.

Jiang Dai and Bai Tian were naturally no problem either. Although they were a bit lazy, they had the responsibility of being parents and had to take the lead!

When everyone was captivated by the adorable human baby.

Bai Lazybones Yun An: ...

I don't want to do a big clean, and I don't want to be fed at all!!!

As the sun moved westward, the Bai family's courtyard had changed its appearance. Red lanterns were hung up, and there were even light bulbs placed inside by Bai Yun, making the main feature a red lantern that would overwhelm everyone else.

Although Jiang Dai and Bai Tian thought it was a bit tacky, Juan Juan liked it nonetheless!

The couplets on the gate were written by Bai Yunxing; the calligraphy was beautiful and presentable.

And the Spring Festival couplets inside the house...

Jiang Dai and Bai Tian went straight for something abstract and innovative.

It's cute and straightforward, with illustrations interspersed throughout. It's not really suitable for showing off, but it's pretty enough for me to enjoy.

The decorations inside the house were all brand new and festive, and even the curly rag dolls were dressed in special New Year's outfits.

Because he was very tired from all the fuss in the afternoon, Bai Yun'an took out the pre-made food.

Redeemable from the mall, sourced from our space, fresh and not spoiled, requiring only simple heating.

"Alright, alright, let's eat!"

Jiang Dai brought out the fragrant rice, which was produced by the space and was plump and round.

The dishes on the table—shredded pork with garlic sauce, braised pork with preserved mustard greens, corn with pine nuts, oden, hand-shredded cabbage, and cold broccoli salad—are simply irresistible.

No one spoke during the meal, because it smelled so good, really so good.

Jiang Dai and Bai Tian wanted to lie down after eating because they were easily sleepy.

“You guys should come back early from your outings; you’re still growing.”

Jiang Dai yawned, gave the children a few instructions, and then turned and went back into the house.

I'm not worried at all about whether they'll encounter any danger if they come back late.

Danger my ass! It's good enough if those few don't become danger to others.

The nights in Yunjiang as the New Year approaches will only be more lively.

The lanterns are incredibly beautiful at night, making the fire-breathing and acrobatic performances even more dazzling and amazing. Many people are choosing fireworks and firecrackers at the stalls.

Juanjuan held a candied hawthorn in her hand, its sweet and sour taste perfect for aiding digestion. She held her second brother's hand and walked in the middle.

The one walking at the front is naturally the eldest brother; no need for stereotypes, it's so real.

Walking behind was naturally the lazy third brother.

"Here, roasted chestnuts."

Bai Yunqi, who was running ahead, turned back, handed Juanjuan a bag of hot roasted chestnuts, and then plunged back into the crowd.

These roasted chestnuts are coated with spiritual energy, and the key point is that they must not be cold, otherwise they won't taste good.

Bai Yunxing took the chestnut and took his sister's hand: "Let's go."

Juanjuan looked at her second brother and suddenly remembered that he had always mentioned that younger brother in his heart.

"After we leave Yunjiang, will we go to the frontier to take a look?" Juanjuan asked casually.

Bai Yunxing: "The frontier?"

"Yes." Juanjuan nodded: "I want to see the battlefield that Sister Mu and the others went to."

Bai Yunxing's thoughts were immediately drawn back to that cruel battlefield.

"I don't know, let's see what my parents decide."

He himself might want to go back there, but his family...
