Because today is New Year's Eve and people have to stay up all night, Wang started making dumplings with bread, Sun helped chop the meat filling, and the three sisters-in-law also chopped a few cabbages to make cabbage and pork fillings in the evening.

I was busy until it was almost dark. I made hundreds of dumplings. Although it seemed like a lot, there were many people in the Xu family, and Uncle Xu and his three brothers were big eaters, so making this many dumplings was just right.

Cover the wrapped dumplings with gauze and put them outside to freeze. You can just boil water to cook the dumplings tomorrow.

The family lit a stove in the front hall and closed the doors and windows, so the house became warm. Mr. Xu and Mr. Lin started playing Go again.

The women all sat together chatting, cracking melon seeds, talking and laughing, and they seemed quite relaxed. Suddenly, they felt that this evening was not so tiring after all.

My brothers also picked up books and started reading. Although the college had a ten-day holiday for the Chinese New Year, the academic work assigned by the teacher still had to be completed on time.

Only Xiaoliu was idle and had nothing to do. He was either poking this or fiddling with that. Xiaoba would take a detour when he saw him. After being glared at by his elder brother, he finally calmed down, but he still felt bored.

Qibao thought about it and took out a picture book from his previous life from the space. The book mainly talked about some myths and legends.

He handed the book to Sixth Brother and said, "Sixth Brother, don't take this book out. Just read it at home."

When Xiaoliu saw his sister giving him a book with a colorful character pattern on the cover, he immediately became interested. If it was an ordinary book, he would not want to read it.

I took the book in my hand, opened it and took a look. I saw characters flying in the sky and all kinds of strange animals, which immediately attracted my attention.

Seeing that Sixth Brother had calmed down at noon, Qibao returned to his room, and the two white wolves followed him quietly with light steps.

Qibao brought two white wolves into the space. When the two little white wolves saw Bai Shuang and Bai Xue, they happily came forward to be intimate with each other. The little white wolves had grown a lot, and their fur was as shiny as snow, as if it could glow. Although they were not yet adults, they could see the trend of becoming the majestic king of beasts in the future.

Qibao entered the villa and found Xiaoling with her eyes closed. There was a white light flashing on her forehead like last time. She was probably practicing the forbidden technique she had learned last time.

Qibao didn't disturb him. He went upstairs and entered the room full of clothes. He opened the drawer and looked at the jades. He picked out a piece of fine white jade with a firm texture and a warm color.

She planned to use this jade to carve a few jade pendants for each of her brothers as her first New Year's gift.

She took out the carving knife and started carving. Although she had seen others carving in her previous life, she had never done it herself. However, spiritual power is a good thing. She has practiced her physical spiritual power to perfection and can control it freely. Carving a few jade pendants should be a piece of cake for her!

Qibao put a lot of thought into it. She planned to carve a round jade pendant with an orchid pattern and then engrave one character of each of her brothers' names in the middle.

Although there is the help of spiritual power, if people concentrate their attention for a long time, they will feel exhausted when they relax.

After resting for a while, Qibao was a little worried when she saw that Xiaoling still hadn't woken up, but she didn't dare to go up and disturb her. If Xiaoling was hurt because of her, she would blame herself.

He wrote a note and placed it in front of Xiaoling, asking it to tell her when it woke up. After doing all this, Qibao left the space again.

It was not until midnight that the Xu family members yawned and went back to their rooms to sleep.

At dawn the next day, Uncle Xu opened the door and set off a string of firecrackers. At this time, bursts of firecrackers were heard from the village one after another, and the children stood at the door with their ears covered.

Mr. Xu has no brothers, and his parents have passed away, so the Xu family didn't go anywhere on New Year's Day and stayed at home.

Wang boiled a large pot of water and put the shrimps that had been frozen outside overnight into the boiling water. The iron pots in the countryside are very large and can cook seventy or eighty shrimps in one pot, but it would take several pots to make enough to eat.

The first pot was distributed to the children. They rarely got to eat dumplings because making dumplings was too troublesome and there were so many people in the family. If it weren't for the Chinese New Year, Wang would not have been willing to make dumplings. Although they tasted good, making a meal of dumplings was exhausting.

Several children began to put dumplings into their mouths in big mouthfuls. They kept gasping for air because they were so hot, but they were all very happy eating.

The old man gave a bowl to each of the two white wolves, and gave a bowl to Xiao Bafen, saying, "You three are in for a treat today. I haven't even eaten yet, so I'll serve you three first."

Two wolves and a dog surrounded the old man affectionately.

The old man patted their big heads and said with a smile: "Eat quickly, otherwise you will have diarrhea if you eat it if it gets cold!" He really treated them as human beings.

Qibao also secretly filled a bowl and put it into the space, intending to give it to Xiaoling who had just woken up to try.

Yes, Xiaoling's voice came into Qibao's mind this morning. Seeing that there was nothing wrong with it, Qibao felt relieved.

After breakfast, every New Year's Day, the children in the village would go to other people's homes in the village to say some pleasant and auspicious words. Families with copper coins would give one copper coin to each child, or take small snacks to share with the children. So the children all like the New Year very much, because they not only have food to eat, but also copper coins to take.

Many children from the village came to the Xu family's door today. They were all five or six years old. Just looking at them made people feel soft-hearted. When they saw Wang open the door, a row of children shouted sweetly in unison: "Grandma Wang, Happy New Year and all the best!" They had innocent smiles on their faces.

Wang's face lit up with joy, and she took out the red envelopes she had prepared, saying, "Okay, you are all good children. Take it. This is your New Year's money."

The children took the red envelopes and bowed in unison to express their gratitude, saying, "Thank you, Grandma Wang, for the red envelope."

The more Wang looked at them, the more she liked them. All the children in Xujia Village were good-looking. She said, "Wait a minute. I'll get you some snacks."

Wang quickly brought a plate of flower cakes. A child took a piece and said, "This is made by Grandma Wang's family. It tastes good. Take it and eat it."

The children took the flower cakes and thanked him again, their hearts almost going crazy with joy. They had just secretly opened the red envelope and saw that there were six copper coins! It was a lot!

Wang looked at the jumping figures of the group of children, smiled, and walked into the house with the empty plates.

After dinner, Qibao called his brothers and said, "I've prepared a New Year's gift for you all! I made it myself!"

Xu Wenwu patted Qibao's head lovingly and said, "Big brother likes whatever Qibao gives him. Even if he gives me a piece of grass, Big brother will always keep it with him."

"Sister, what is that? Take it out and let me see it!" Xiaowu said.

Qibao took out a box and said, "This is it, open it and see for yourself!"

Xu Wenwu took the box and opened it, and several of his brothers gathered around curiously.

Seeing a few jade pendants lying quietly in the box, Xiao Wu exclaimed, "How beautiful! Sister, are these really given to us?"

Qibao nodded with a smile and said, "Of course, your names are also on it. I carved them out piece by piece!"
