January 28, 1979, the first day of the Lunar New Year.

Hong Kong is quiet and there are no sounds of firecrackers like inland, because setting off firecrackers is illegal here.

So when they woke up in the morning, they were still a little uncomfortable, but they still had to go down the mountain, so they got up early to pack up.

Xia Youyou wore a pair of small leather boots and a Chanel-style tweed jacket. She also had someone prepare clothes for Cao An, Xiao Hai, and Qi Siling early on. They were fitted suits inside and tweed coats outside.

Liu Hui was also wearing new clothes at this time. They were the new clothes that Cao An bought for her when he came to Hong Kong last time.

I didn't have the chance to wear it inland, but this time I finally got to wear it. Xia Youyou even circled around her and said, "Mom, this dress looks really good on you. You look like a lady!"

She was wearing an ankle-length cheongsam with a fur cape draped over it. It was very Hong Kong!

However, Liu Hui was not used to it and was very uncomfortable pulling at her cloak. "Oh, I better change. This dress doesn't suit me!"

No matter how the others insisted, Liu Hui returned to the tent, changed her clothes, and put on the clothes that Xia Youyou had someone make for her.

The waist-cinching windbreaker is similar in style to the one Xia Youyou is wearing.

After putting on the suit, she rolled her eyes at Cao An and said, "Look at your taste, look at my daughter's taste, this is what suits me! What kind of crap are those you bought?"

Cao An touched his nose and didn't dare to say anything.

However, the temperature here was still a bit high. When they came down from the mountain, the three men had already taken off their windbreakers.

Xia Youyou didn't feel anything, and Qi Siling didn't let her take it off.

Coming down from the mountain, I was quickly attracted by the bustle of the streets.

Seeing what happened last night, I thought that people here didn't take the New Year seriously at all. But now, the gongs and drums and lion dances are already going on in the streets!

Xia Youyou held Liu Hui's arm, while Qi Siling protected her on the other side. They stood side by side in the front watching the excitement.

"Mom, so this is how we celebrate the New Year here!" In the north, people just visit relatives on New Year's Day, and there are never such lively group activities.

Liu Hui nodded and sighed, "It's probably because of the "Four Olds" movement in recent years that we rarely see this kind of traditional activity anymore."

Cao An looked at it for a while, then said something to Qi Siling and walked towards the public phone next to him.

Knowing that he was going to make a phone call, Qi Siling stopped the little girl who was about to move forward and said, "Wait for your brother later."

Xia Youyou looked up at him, then looked behind her. Cao An was leaning against a public phone and dialing a number. Xiao Hai followed beside him, looking around vigilantly. She knew that the call was for the fruit seller.

She took the man's hand that was hanging by his side and motioned him to lower his head.

Qi Siling held her hand in his arm and leaned over to listen.

"We still need to look for a house, right?"

Hearing this, Qi Siling raised his hand to touch her head, then leaned over to her ear and said, "Well, don't worry."

After saying that, he pressed the little head towards him and kissed her earlobe.

Xia Youyou shrank her neck, glared at him unhappily, and looked around again.

"Don't worry, no one will notice." Qi Siling pursed her lips, loving her lively look.

The little girl pouted, shook off his hand, and leaned against her mother.

Liu Hui laughed a lot, naturally seeing the intimate interaction between the couple.

Cao An came back after making a phone call and moved closer to Qi Siling. The two of them whispered a few words, and then he protected Xia Youyou and Liu Hui and squeezed out of the crowd.

Protecting the people in the middle, Cao An pretended to glance around casually from behind, making sure that no one was paying attention to them before heading to a secluded place.

There are too many unsafe factors in Hong Kong, especially since they are bringing Xia Youyou and Liu Hui with them, so they need to be more careful.

A few people walked through the streets and alleys and finally found a pier.

After asking some fishermen, they finally found a small warehouse. However, it was also the territory of the gang, so Cao An went to contact them alone and did not let Xia Youyou show up.

The main reason was that the little girl was too eye-catching, soft and bright, and I was afraid something might happen.

Cao An communicated with people in a foreign language. Seeing that he was dressed unusually and was tall and strong, people thought he was a bodyguard of some big family.

In the end, the warehouse was rented for 50 yuan a day.

Cao An took the key, paid a three-day deposit, and watched his men leave.

After making sure that the people had gone far away, he left the place and went to where Qi Siling and the others were hiding. He found a public telephone booth and called the fruit shop owner, telling him the address of the warehouse.

After doing all this, they were not in a hurry to put things into the warehouse, mainly because they were afraid that those people would stare at the warehouse, which would arouse suspicion.

Qi Siling looked at a place from afar, asked Cao An and Xiao Hai to protect the people, and went there alone.

Because of her height, Xia Youyou couldn't see where he was going over the crowd, but Cao An and Xiao Hai saw it.

The two smiled at each other, with some tacit understanding.

When Qi Siling came back, he had nothing in his hands.

Xia Youyou was puzzled for a moment, but didn't investigate further.

Cao An used the money to buy things for everyone, but due to the limited amount of money, he could only buy ordinary things.

As they were strolling through the department store, Xiao Hai passed by a TV counter. He was interested in it, so he listened carefully to the contents.

"Hmm? Yangcheng?"

Several people looked at him strangely, "What Yangcheng?" Xia Youyou asked.

Xiao Hai turned around and smiled at her, "I just saw on TV that there will be a New Year's Eve party in Guangzhou tomorrow night in conjunction with Hong Kong. Should we go and see it?"

"I heard that many celebrities from Hong Kong will be there."

Xia Youyou's eyes were also attracted by the star singing the New Year's song on TV. "Okay!" After saying that, she went to hold Cao An's hand, shaking it and acting coquettishly.

"Brother~ I want to see it too!"

Cao An held his forehead with his hand and said, "Go away, stop wandering!"

Qi Siling came up and held her in his arms. He had just done something big, and he must give her a surprise in the evening!

"Let's see if there are any jewelry that you like. We can exchange them for small yellow croakers." After saying that, he stopped her and went to the jewelry counter that he had already set his eyes on.

When Xia Youyou heard that she had to exchange the small yellow croaker for gems, although she felt a little painful, it was okay. After all, gold was not that valuable now, and it would appreciate in value in the future after being exchanged for gems.

The group arrived at the jewelry counter in a grand procession. The salesgirl saw that they were dressed in fancy clothes and knew they were definitely not ordinary people. So she greeted them warmly and began to introduce them to the group.

Xia Youyou swept her eyes across the glass counter. The shapes were all ordinary and the particles were neither big nor small.

Qi Siling also took a look and asked without looking up, "Are there any bigger ones?"

When the salesgirl heard this, her eyes lit up. She knew that this was going to be a big business, so she quickly asked someone to call the manager over and take out the high-quality items from the safe.

After waiting for a few minutes, a man in a suit with gelled hair came over with a box of jewelry.

He had a smile on his face and opened the box while chatting with them.
