Chapter 616 Red Envelope

On the twenty-seventh day of the lunar year,

Lin Yao said goodbye to Mu Wanqing and officially embarked on the journey home.

Lin Yao’s routine of going home in the past few years has almost been fixed.

First, go to see her adoptive father. Then,

in the welcome ceremony in her hometown that is getting more and more grand year by year, she turns back home...

To be honest.

Lin Yao’s return this year is considered low-key.

Or rather, she is very low-key every year when she returns to her hometown.

But the Linmu Studio has been very high-profile throughout the year, and her fame is getting bigger and bigger...

There are some things that she can’t avoid by being low-key, and she really can’t avoid them.

Lin Yao and her sister just returned from the capital.

After landing at the airport and driving home, before they even reached the city limit, the small coastal city had already made sufficient preparations...

Lin Yao was forced to stay in the city for a while, and then returned to the small town where her hometown was, and the scene was even stronger.

Lin Yao was really exhausted physically and mentally.

But when she got back to her house, she saw reporters with cameras and a bunch of onlookers who came from nowhere...

"Sister, do you know how to disguise yourself?"

Lin Yao got out of the car, waited for the gate to close, and temporarily blocked off all sights, then immediately turned her head to look at Lin Xi.

"Disguise yourself?" Lin Xi lifted the bag on her shoulder, a little curious.

"Make up to look like someone else? Then people won't recognize me..."

Lin Yao said, and suddenly clapped her hands: "Yes, it's that Japanese magic - makeup!"

"How can makeup be so magical..."

Lin Xi was amused: "And even if it is so magical, I can't do it. Besides, even if I put on makeup for you, do you think others really can't recognize you?" Lin

Yao hesitated for a moment and replied: "What if?"

"No if."

"..."

Lin Yao sighed, and then with a try mentality, she took the hand of the old lady next to her: "Grandma, do you have a way to make others not recognize me?"

"My silly girl, why don't you let others recognize me? You are beautiful, popular, and capable! Don't be shy."

The old lady obviously couldn't empathize with Lin Yao. It had been a long time since she saw her two granddaughters.

Her mind was full of her two granddaughters now.

"..."

Lin Yao had nothing to say, smiled, no longer entangled, but held the old lady's hand tightly.

A group of people walked into the house.

The noisy sound finally disappeared.

After the old lady took the two sisters home, she immediately went to the kitchen.

It seemed that like in previous years, the old lady had already prepared to feed the two sisters...

Lin Yao took off the cap that did not cover her at all, gently shook her long and smooth hair, then sat on the sofa, drank half a glass of water, and then slumped like Ge You.

On the other side.

Lin Xi thanked Xu Huan for carrying the luggage, and then asked the new bodyguard beside Lin Yao to rest.

"Actually, this is the only way."

Lin Xi sent Xu Huan away, then sat next to her sister with a cup of water: "I thought you were used to it."

"It's impossible to get used to it... It's getting more and more exaggerated every year. This year, someone blocked us in the city. Maybe next year we will be broadcast live when we go home. How can we get used to it?"

Lin Yao turned sideways and complained: "I can't change these... I can't even have the idea of ​​complaining and escaping, right?"

"Of course you can."

Lin Xi put down the cup of water, looked at Lin Yao, and said gently: "If you want to act like a spoiled child, you can. Sister welcomes you at any time."

"No, I think I may be more relaxed when I see you acting like a spoiled child."

Lin Yao looked at her sister mischievously.

"Okay, sister is sincere, you let sister act like a spoiled child to relieve your stress!"

"Hehe... Hey hey hey, don't tickle me, can't you afford it!"

"Sister just can't afford it, act like a spoiled child, act like a spoiled child for sister to see!"

"Go away."

The two returned home.

It was like some shackles were untied.

As time went by, gradually, the most authentic faces were revealed.

They were more relaxed than when they were alone in Pengcheng.

Not only did they play around, but in their hometown, they even stuffed each other's food when eating...

Maybe this was the charm of their hometown.

After all, they grew up here and spent their childhood here.

Even though Lin Yao didn't belong here at first, she still had the memories of her childhood.

After years of subtle influence.

It's hard to say whether she can still look at those memories from the perspective of a bystander.

The two of them made a fuss for a while.

Lin Xi finally let her sister go.

After all, she is still the elder sister, so she still maintains her reserve.

"It's a new year again."

Lin Xi sat up straight again, smoothed her hair at the temples, looked ahead, and looked at this familiar yet strange home.

"Yes, it's a new year again."

Lin Yao lay on Lin Xi's round thighs, which were pressed together, and echoed.

Then.

Neither of them spoke.

Another year has passed in the blink of an eye. It is normal to have some gains and losses when you really have a sense of reality.

Although.

The two people's gains and losses are somewhat different...

Lin Xi suddenly lowered her head and looked at Lin Yao, who was lying on her thighs and had reached the age of marriage in the blink of an eye, and smiled gently.

Decided not to think about it.

As long as she didn't let go, she would not leave.

"Let's go, let's go help grandma."

Lin Xi raised her slender but plump long legs to wake up her sister who was lying on her stomach.

"Are you sure you won't be kicked out?" Lin Yao straightened up.

"No."

Lin Xi stood up from the sofa, then pulled Lin Yao to the kitchen together.

But soon...

"My daughters, what are you doing in here? There is a lot of smoke here, get out quickly."

The old lady started to drive people away when she saw the two sisters.

"Grandma, we are here to help. Don't look at us like this. We also cook for ourselves in Pengcheng." Lin Xi smiled and comforted the old lady.

Lin Yao assisted at the side: "Yes, my cooking skills are actually not bad..."

"That won't work either, go home and have a good rest, get out quickly."

The old lady embraced the two sisters and pushed them outside.

The two sisters were at a loss for words, and after much persuasion, they reluctantly stayed in the kitchen to do some easy work such as peeling garlic and washing vegetables.

The old lady was not happy at first.

But when the two sisters sat on the small stool, picking vegetables and playing at the same time.

She turned her back to the two sisters and couldn't help but smile kindly.

No matter what.

Finally.

There is a breath of life at home again...

...

Then, two days before the arrival of New Year's Eve.

The two sisters' lives are extremely simple.

Eat, play, play and sleep.

The main reason is that they can't go out.

The current situation.

Lin Yao, let alone going out, probably has to face long guns and short guns when she walks to the yard.

Lin Yao no longer doubts this.

This year, Lin Mu Studio is really too popular.

Although Lin Xi has politely driven away the reporters outside the yard once, there are still many people who are unwilling to give up.

In this case, the two sisters can only find happiness in the house.

On the twenty-ninth day of the lunar year,

Zhang Youjie finally came back.

He was exhausted and had visible dark circles under his eyes, but he was surprisingly energetic.

"The sales curve of several new products of Youmei Technology at the end of the year has not only not decreased, but increased!"

As soon as he entered the door,

he didn't even have time to drink water.

When Zhang Youjie saw the two sisters, he immediately told them the good news: "This year's performance of Youmei Technology is really exaggerated... It's really just a short year, and it has completed the twenty years of Jiaming Alliance! Xiaoyao, you don't know the expressions of those new shareholders at the year-end meeting.

They really regard you as a god now!"

"Uncle Zhang, do you think I look like a god?"

Lin Yao was a little amused.

She didn't feel very happy about what Zhang Youjie said.

After all, capital, whoever can help them make money is a god...

This god is too cheap.

"I think they look alike."

Zhang Youjie looked at his graceful niece in front of him: "At least they look more like your father. Even if he has achieved his current achievements, he still looks like a gangster leader, not like you... By the way, "Day of Reincarnation" is very popular recently! I heard that there will be a big move on WeChat at the end of the year, right? Can you tell me about it?"

Lin Yao opened her mouth and was about to explain.

"Uncle Zhang, don't talk about work."

On the side.

Lin Xi brought a glass of water and handed it to him, interrupting: "It's the New Year, so let's leave the work until after the New Year. She has been busy for a year, and you are also tired for a year. Have a good rest."

"...I neglected it."

Zhang Youjie took the water, reacted, and smiled at Lin Yao apologetically.

"It doesn't matter."

Lin Yao shook her head gently, and then smiled: "You will know what the move is tomorrow, Uncle Zhang, it doesn't matter one day, have a good rest, grandma has been waiting for you for a day."

"Where is the old lady?"

Zhang Youjie heard this and nodded, and then asked about the whereabouts of the old lady.

As soon as he finished speaking.

The old lady came out of the kitchen and said sarcastically: "Oh, is there anyone who cares about me, an old woman? I thought my biological son and godson were dead, and I only have two good granddaughters left."

"Hey, old lady, why do you say such harsh words? Your godson is here! I wish you a happy new year."

Zhang Youjie immediately jumped up from the chair, showing a flattering smile, greeted the old lady and tapped her shoulder gently.

"What? I haven't seen you for a year, and I don't recognize you at all." The old lady was not as gentle to Zhang Youjie, a close friend who grew up with her son, as she was to her granddaughter.

"Hey, here, old lady, calm down. It was because you were too busy before. I will go out and find a thorn stick to apologize to you!"

"I dare not. It's okay to hit you, but I'm afraid of scaring the two girls."

"Oh..."

An old arrogant.

Plus a flattering middle-aged man.

Together they formed a very funny scene.

The two sisters gathered together, trying to hold back their laughter while watching this scene. Finally, they couldn't help it anymore, hugged each other, and laughed secretly.

However, Zhang Youjie's jokes

made the family more popular.

The New Year atmosphere was stronger...

and tomorrow.

It was New Year's Eve.

...

That night.

After eleven o'clock.

On the second floor, in Lin Yao's room.

Lin Yao was ready to go to bed.

Of course.

Before going to bed, she chatted with Mu Wanqing as usual.

After all, it was agreed that the main focus was company.

Of course, she couldn't forget the black-silk glasses girl far away in Pengcheng.

"Cover up with the quilt, Xiaoyao, don't catch a cold."

At this time.

Lin Xi walked out of the bathroom and saw her sister wearing a thin sweater with the quilt covering her belly, so she quickly reminded her.

"Don't worry, I'm not cold."

Lin Yao replied to Mu Wanqing again, and then replied without raising her head.

"It's not a question of whether it's cold or not."

Lin Xi smiled helplessly, lifted the quilt and lay down next to Lin Yao, pulling the quilt to her chest: "If you catch a cold during the New Year, it will be troublesome."

"..."

Lin Yao had no choice but to lie down, turned sideways and continued to reply to messages.

"Chat?"

Lin Xi turned sideways, put his arm around Lin Yao's slender waist, and asked.

"Yeah, Mu Wanqing."

Lin Yao nodded. While Mu Wanqing was taking a shower, she temporarily put down her phone and looked at Lin Xi who was close at hand: "The New Year is coming soon, and she is still alone in Pengcheng, so let's chat for a while."

"Yeah."

Lin Xi nodded, then smiled and asked: "Then why don't you chat with your sister?"

"What kind of plot is this?"

Lin Yao rolled her eyes at her: "I'm by your side, and you can hug me and sleep with me, what's the point of chatting?"

"You can hug me and sleep with me? Really?" Lin Xi looked at Lin Yao mischievously.

"What do you want to do?"

Lin Yao showed a guarded expression: "I'm just being polite..."

"I don't take this as being polite."

Lin Xi hugged Lin Yao tightly in her arms, even crossing the mountains and ridges, letting their flat bellies stick together.

And under the quilt, she also twisted Lin Yao's plump long legs.

"If you don't mind the tightness in your chest, and if you're not afraid of your sister's waist breaking, you can keep holding like this..."

Lin Yao didn't react at all, and even adjusted her position to lean against her more comfortably.

The two of them have slept together for so long.

"You're not struggling anymore. It's pointless."

Lin Xi was a little disappointed, but she didn't let go of her sister: "I feel that the reality of another year has become stronger."

"Then just accept it. It's just the New Year anyway."

Lin Yao yawned innocently: "If you feel that worrying about gains and losses can't change anything, it's better to accept it calmly."

"That's right."

Lin Xi smiled, then thought of something and asked curiously: "When will the red envelope system be updated? Wait?"

"Not late at night, who will send red envelopes in the middle of the night... It will be officially launched at six o'clock tomorrow."

Lin Yao shook her head gently: "Cooperate with the game, and WeChat will also issue a unified announcement."

"Yeah."

Lin Xi satisfied her curiosity, nodded, and then fell silent.

Lin Yao didn't speak either.

The two were not strangers, and they wouldn't feel awkward staying together whether they talked or not.

"It's twelve o'clock."

The two were silent for a long time.

Suddenly.

Lin Yao glanced at the time and said, "It's the last day now."

"Well... how about we take a photo to commemorate it?"

Lin Xi nodded, then suddenly thought of something, let go of Lin Yao, and climbed out of bed.

"Ah? Now?"

Lin Yao huddled in the quilt, with a 'no' expression.

"Life always has to have a sense of ritual, come on."

Lin Xi gathered her long hair, then pulled her sister up from the quilt.

Then.

Lin Xi picked up the phone and held it in front of the two of them.

"Look at the camera."

The two sisters sat on the bed, snuggling, their faces pressed together, looking at the camera together.

Click.

The picture froze.

On the last day of the year.

The two left a unique picture.

...

No words all night.

The next day.

New Year's Eve.

The most important day in the country.

Different regions celebrate this day in different ways.

But the importance is the same.

And on the same day,

WeChat released an announcement...

However,

for those who wake up late, this announcement is still unknown.

For example, Yi Wenwen.

He got up at around nine o'clock, and he knew nothing about the announcement issued by WeChat at six o'clock...

The first thing she did when she woke up was not to check the WeChat information, but to open "Day of Reincarnation".

As for why.

It's very simple.

Sign-in rewards...

He has already received the rewards of the previous few days.

But what he is most looking forward to is the sign-in rewards on New Year's Eve.

Because only the rewards of this day are unknown...

So far, there have been countless speculations in the player community, but no one knows what today's rewards are.

All players are curious.

Especially with the popularity of "Day of Reincarnation" soaring wildly during this period at the end of the year, more and more players, more and more people discussing it.

His curiosity is getting stronger and stronger.

And today.

The mystery of the reward is finally about to be unveiled...

"Let me see, what is this..."

Yi Wenwen looked at the logo of Linmu Studio emerging and the main page of the game was about to appear, and immediately muttered to himself.

He opened the game without getting out of bed, just for this moment.

A few seconds later,

the game started.

Yi Wenwen skillfully clicked on the sign-in window and completed the sign-in.   In the game, a reminder popped up

[Happy New Year] .   At the same time, on the main page,   fireworks rose into the sky and   bloomed .   Then ,   the reward popped up.   [Congratulations on winning the 'Arrogant Shepherd·Red Envelope Cover'] After this reminder popped   up, the game asked Yi Wenwen if he wanted to open WeChat to claim the reward.   "Ah?"   Yi Wenwen saw this and made a puzzled sound.   What does this have to do with WeChat?   With suspicion, he chose to confirm.   Soon,   the phone screen jumped to WeChat and the reward was claimed.   But what is this used for?   Yi Wenwen still didn't understand.   Until.   He saw the announcement sent by WeChat at six in the morning...   [Happy New Year! The red envelope system is officially online! ]   Yi Wenwen clicked on the announcement and read it in its entirety.   Then.   He was stunned.   He put down his phone, and after a while, he muttered: "... Can this thing also be electronic? Is it so fun to play?"   He was a little unbelievable.   But it was clearly written on the notice, and combined with the rewards of the game just now...   Yi Wenwen suddenly felt a strong curiosity.   He immediately put his phone aside, put on his clothes, walked out of the room, and looked around instead of washing up.   Then when he saw his parents on the sofa, he immediately went up to them: "Dad, where's your phone?"   "What are you doing?"   Yi's father looked at his son in surprise.   "I just found a fun function, let's try it."   He sat down next to his parents, then took out his phone, found his father's WeChat account, and then opened the newly added red envelope system according to the tutorial.   Then.   There is no need for tutorial.   Because the operation of sending a red envelope can be said to be almost clear at a glance.   Enter the amount, enter the password, and then click Send.   No.   Because of the reward red envelope cover, he has an extra operation to choose.   But it is still not difficult.   Soon, Yi Wenwen successfully sent a red envelope of ten yuan to his father.   Ding Dong--   then.   Yi Wenwen had just checked his WeChat payment account when his father's phone rang.   Yi's father picked up his phone and looked at the red envelope page his son had sent out. The cover was a beautiful blonde girl. He asked in confusion, "What is this?"   "Click it and have a look." Yi Wenwen looked over and then answered.   Yi's father extended his index finger and tapped the red envelope.   With a prompt sound.   The red envelope opened.   Ten yuan.   "Red envelope!?" Yi's father was a little surprised: "Is this real money or fake money?"   This even attracted Yi Wenwen's mother who was watching TV next to him.   She took a look and then became curious.   It's interesting.   Yi Wenwen replied, "Take a look at your WeChat payment account."

Yi's father immediately opened his wallet, and then he was even more surprised: "It really increased by ten yuan, so it's all right!? Can I send money directly?"

"Well, it seems that it's a newly updated function, and I can send red envelopes directly through WeChat... Just like in real life, put money into the red envelope, and then send it, and the other party can receive the money when they click it."

Yi Wenwen was actually a little shocked.

But he still explained.

"Interesting... Interesting." Yi's father looked at the red envelope on his phone as if he had discovered a new world.

You know, today is New Year's Eve!

And the New Year's red envelope thing is not unfamiliar to every Chinese!

It can be said that it is very familiar!

Now this familiar thing, on a special day, is presented online...

Instantly, it captures everyone's heart.

Men, women, young and old are all welcome!

"How did this happen?"

This is it.

Yi Wenwen's mother, who had been watching for a while, didn't even bind a bank card to WeChat payment, but couldn't help asking: "It feels very interesting..."

But she hadn't finished her words.

The phone rang, her phone.

She opened it and looked at it, then said in surprise: "Miaomiao's mother also sent me a red envelope! Can I just click it directly!?"

"Hey, the young people in the work group also sent red envelopes, lucky red envelopes? Do you know what it is?"

Then.

Yi Wenwen's father next to him glanced at the WeChat group, raised his head, and looked at Yi Wenwen.

Yi Wenwen: "..."

It seems that his actions are still slow.

He is still experimenting, but others have already started using it.

Soon, he reacted and immediately came up, and then studied the red envelope game with his parents.

The specific gameplay is actually not complicated.

Because of the cultural accumulation of thousands of years, the red envelope game can be said to be well-known to everyone, regardless of gender, age or young... They can understand it instantly.

Soon.

The three of them figured out how to play this game, including the variant lucky red envelope.

And Yi Wenwen's parents have already had a lot of fun playing it.

"Hey, someone sent me a red envelope again."

"I grabbed a few cents... Ha, it's interesting."

"..."

The two of them sank instantly.

Yi Wenwen himself also opened the game group he joined.

Sure enough.

Everyone was discussing how to play the red envelope game.

And there were countless people sending red envelopes...

He glanced at the group, then at the WeChat icon, and was sincerely impressed.

This really broke the limitations of space!

Using communication software, on days like New Year's Eve, it is easier for users to send money and blessings...

This is really too much!

Linmu Studio!

This is also possible! ! ! ! !

At this moment.

He finally knew what the New Year's Eve reward of "Day of Reincarnation" was.

But he felt it was not important...

And the red envelope system has just been launched...

The Spring Festival has just begun...

To be honest.

I can't avoid zz correctness in my drama. In "The Witcher", Fringilla was forced to be blackened, and I can't avoid zz correctness in the game. A black man appeared in Norse mythology. When watching a football game, you can see news questioning why there are no black people in the Argentine team. You can see athletes covering their mouths before the game starts. Now the mainstream games have not been announced. What elements are there in them, everyone is mentally prepared. There is no reason for me to consider this thing when writing a novel?

It's fine if I can't avoid it normally, but I have to consider these things and discrimination when writing novels on the Chinese Internet. This is too miserable...

This is not a problem of logic, nor is it racial discrimination. It's just that I am forced to consider these things. I feel uncomfortable psychologically, as if I have been assimilated.
