He Siyan, carrying the New Year's gifts carefully prepared by Huang Haitang, embarked on his journey to Gu Yunxi's home. He wore a sharp dark blue suit with a simple tie, appearing both dignified and energetic. He Siyan's face was resolute, his eyes revealing determination and confidence, and his demeanor exuded good upbringing and politeness.

The New Year's gifts he carried were beautifully wrapped, each one revealing his respect for the Gu family and his emphasis on traditional etiquette. When he arrived at the Gu family's door, he gently rang the doorbell and waited for the Gu family to greet him.

The door slowly opened, and Gu Yanxiao and Xia Liang stood in the doorway, their faces beaming with warm smiles. Gu Yanxiao wore a traditional Chinese robe, appearing gentle and refined, while Xia Liang wore an elegant cheongsam, exuding extraordinary charm.

Gu Yanxiao said in his gentle and magnetic voice, "Si Yan, welcome, please come in."

Xia Liang added with a smile, "Yes, Si Yan, we've been waiting for you. Bringing so many gifts is really too kind of you."

He Siyan bowed slightly and replied politely, "Uncle Gu, Aunt Xia, Happy New Year. These are some New Year's gifts prepared by my mother. I hope you like them."

The Gu family's living room was decorated warmly and festively, with red couplets hanging on the walls and fresh fruit and holiday snacks on the table. Warm-toned lighting illuminated every corner, creating a peaceful and festive atmosphere.

Gu Yunxi came downstairs and saw He Siyan, a joyful smile spreading across her face. She was wearing a light purple dress, her long hair flowing smoothly over her shoulders, making her look both elegant and poised.

"Siyan, you've arrived." Gu Yunxi's voice was gentle and sweet.

He Siyan stepped forward and handed Gu Yunxi a carefully selected bouquet of flowers: "Yunxi, Happy New Year."

Gu Yunxi accepted the flowers, her smile growing even brighter: "Thank you, Si Yan, these flowers are so beautiful."

At dinner, the Gu family invited He Siyan to join them. The table was laden with a variety of delicious dishes, from crispy roasted fish to tender braised pork, each one made by Xia Liang herself, a feast for the eyes, nose, and palate.

Gu Yanxiao raised his glass and toasted He Siyan: "Siyan, I wish you a successful new year."

He Siyan also raised his glass in response: "Thank you, Uncle Gu, and I wish the Gu family a happy new year and all the best."

Dinner proceeded amidst laughter and cheerful conversation. The Gu family and He Siyan interacted naturally and harmoniously, and their relationship grew even closer during this pleasant meal.

After dinner, the Gu family's living room was filled with a warm atmosphere. The family members sat around the sofa, continuing their holiday celebrations. Gu Yanxiao opened a bottle of his treasured red wine and poured a glass for everyone. He Siyan also took a glass and shared the festive joy with the Gu family.

Xia Liang then brought out some traditional snacks and fruits, placing them on the coffee table for everyone to enjoy. Her smile was gentle, and her eyes were full of love for her family and a warm welcome to He Siyan.

Gu Yunxi sat next to He Siyan, and the two chatted quietly, sharing their New Year's wishes and plans. Gu Yunxi's eyes sparkled with anticipation for the future, and she said softly, "Siyan, in the new year, I hope we can achieve more dreams together."

He Siyan held Gu Yunxi's hand tightly and replied affectionately, "Yunxi, I have the same wish. No matter what the future holds, I will stay by your side."

The other members of the Gu family joined the conversation, discussing their lives and sharing interesting stories and insights from the past year. Gu Yuanzhi excitedly recounted her experiences at school, eliciting bursts of laughter from time to time.

As night deepened, He Siyan realized it was time to take his leave. He stood up and expressed his gratitude to the Gu family: "Uncle Gu, Aunt Xia Liang, thank you so much for your hospitality. I had a very pleasant evening."

Gu Yanxiao and Xia Liang also stood up, expressing their appreciation and blessings to He Siyan: "Siyan, you are welcome to come to our home anytime. You and Yunxi must take good care of yourselves; we all have high hopes for you."

Gu Yunxi escorted He Siyan to the door, where the two embraced, reluctant to part. He Siyan whispered, "Yunxi, I'll be back soon. Happy New Year, my love."

A blush of happiness spread across Gu Yunxi's face as she replied, "Happy New Year, Siyan. I look forward to our next get-together."

He Siyan left the Gu family and embarked on his journey home. Fireworks lit up the night sky, illuminating his way home and reflecting his deep love for Gu Yunxi and his beautiful expectations for the future.

On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, Gu Yunxi got up early to visit the He family. She knew this was an important moment for her, as a future daughter-in-law, to express her respect and blessings to her parents-in-law. Gu Yunxi carefully selected a gift to ensure that it would both reflect her respect for the He family and express her personal sentiments.

She wore a festive red coat paired with elegant black high heels, looking both dignified and stylish. Gu Yunxi's long hair flowed smoothly over her shoulders, and her face was adorned with light makeup, showcasing her fresh and refined temperament.

Gu Yunxi drove to the He family home with gifts. She felt both excited and a little nervous, as this was her first time formally meeting her future in-laws as their fiancée.

Upon arriving at the He family home, Gu Yunxi was warmly welcomed inside. He Zhiqiang and Huang Haitang were already waiting at home, and they greeted Gu Yunxi with friendly smiles.

He Zhiqiang said in his kind voice, "Yunxi, welcome to our home for the New Year. We are very happy that you can come."

Huang Haitang smiled and said, "Yes, Yunxi, come in and sit down. The gift you brought is so thoughtful, thank you."

Gu Yunxi smiled and replied, "Uncle He, Aunt Huang, Happy New Year. This is a small gift I prepared for you; I hope you like it."

He Siyan was also standing to the side, looking at Gu Yunxi with eyes full of love and pride. He stepped forward and said softly, "Yunxi, we are all very happy to see you here."

Gu Yunxi handed the gift to Huang Haitang, then sat down with He Siyan and spent a pleasant morning with the He family. They enjoyed the tea and snacks prepared by Huang Haitang and talked about their plans and wishes for the New Year.

The He family's living room was decorated warmly and festively, with red couplets hanging on the walls and various holiday snacks laid out on the table. He Siyan showed Gu Yunxi around the entire house, introducing her to every corner.

At lunchtime, the He family invited Gu Yunxi to join them. The table was laden with dishes carefully prepared by Huang Haitang, each one brimming with the taste of home. Everyone ate and chatted, the atmosphere harmonious and pleasant.
