Lu Jinghuai also did not forget Aunt Liu and Uncle Chen on the other side. When they saw the red envelopes, Uncle Chen and Aunt Liu both refused them.
"We are both so old, why should we get New Year's money? Logically, we should give it to the wife."
Lu Jinghuai smiled, his expression no longer as cold as when facing outsiders, but rather a bit gentler. "This isn't New Year's money, it's a bonus for Aunt Liu and Uncle Chen. They've worked so hard this year."
Aunt Liu and Uncle Chen no longer refused and watched TV for a while. Aunt Liu and Uncle Chen were also old and didn't have the energy to continue, so they said a few simple words and went back to their room to sleep.
Lin Yan slept for a few hours at noon today. She was not really sleepy at this time and wanted to stay up till the New Year.
At around eight or nine o'clock, Lu Yingqian should have arrived at the riverside with Liang Huo, and she specially sent pictures of fireworks to Lin Yan.
There were some over there, and there were also many private fireworks. Half of the sky was lit up by the fireworks, which was quite beautiful.
Lu Jinghuai also saw the message sent by Lu Yingqian on Lin Yan's phone. He thought for a few seconds and asked.
"Shall we go watch the fireworks too?"
Lin Yan hesitated for a moment, then shook her head. "No, it's too windy outside and too cold. Besides, the riverside and the square are probably too crowded. We won't be able to squeeze in."
If she wasn't pregnant, she would definitely join in the fun. Now that she's pregnant, no matter how careful she is, it's not appropriate. Lin Yan felt a little regretful.
Lu Jinghuai seemed to understand what she meant and said without hesitation: "Then let's not watch others set off fireworks, let's set off fireworks ourselves."
"Has your family prepared fireworks?" Lin Yan was a little curious. They prepared the New Year's goods together, but she didn't buy any fireworks.
At that time, I didn’t think of setting off fireworks. I didn’t think of that since there were no children at home.
However, Lu Jinghuai just thought about it for a moment, stood up and made a phone call. About half an hour later, there was a knock on the Lu family's door.
A young man in his twenties brought a large box of small fireworks and two or three large fireworks.
"Where did you send the fireworks?" Lin Yan was a little curious. It was New Year's Day, so where could she suddenly find fireworks?
Lu Jinghuai did not hide it from her and spoke frankly.
"Liang Huo gave them to me. He took Qianqian out to play, so he must have prepared a lot of fireworks."
Lin Yan chuckled and jokingly said, "Look at you, you don't recognize him as your brother-in-law, but you take advantage of him."
Lu Jinghuai raised an eyebrow and said nothing, then changed the subject and asked, "Going out to set off fireworks?"
"Okay!" Lin Yan put on her coat without any hesitation and was about to go out, but was stopped by Lu Jinghuai.
Lu Jinghuai helped Lin Yan put on the scarf and wrapped her tightly so that no wind could get in when she went out.
Lu Jinghuai set off several large fireworks while Lin Yan watched. He was mainly worried that Lin Yan would accidentally fall when she ran out after lighting the fireworks. Although she was still pregnant, she had to be cautious in everything.
All Lin Yan could play with was the fairy wand in her hand, but her little face was still flushed with excitement.
The fireworks were quickly over, and Lin Yan still felt a little regretful. Lu Jinghuai's heart skipped a beat as he looked at them. He said, "I'll find you some more fireworks in a couple of days."
Lin Yan shook her head. She didn't really like setting off fireworks. It was mainly for the atmosphere. It was fun to do it occasionally. It would be boring to do it every day.
After setting off the fireworks, Lin Yan returned to the living room. A skit was playing on TV and she felt a little hungry.
"I'm hungry." Lin Yan looked at Lu Jinghuai with a pitiful tone.
Lu Jinghuai reacted immediately, and seeing Lin Yan's expression, his heart softened. "There are dumplings in the refrigerator. I'll cook you some dumplings, or whatever you want for dinner. It's cold now. I'll heat it up."
Lin Yan pursed her lips, shook her head and said aggrievedly: "I don't want to eat dumplings or vegetables. I want to eat hand-rolled noodles."
This success made Lu Jinghuai embarrassed. He really didn't know how to make hand-rolled noodles. The only one in the family who could make it was probably Liu Ma. Liu Ma was old and had gone to bed a long time ago. He couldn't bring himself to wake her up to make hand-rolled noodles.
If it wasn't New Year's Eve this year, although it's late now, he could still go find a place to buy some hand-rolled noodles, but on this New Year's Eve, all the shops are closed.
Lu Jinghuai could only coax Lin Yan.
"How about we eat some noodles today? Then we can ask Aunt Liu to make some hand-rolled noodles tomorrow morning."
Lin Yan pursed her lips tightly without saying a word, but her eyes were red. She didn't know why she suddenly felt so hungry. She was so hungry that she wanted to eat a bowl of hand-rolled noodles.
When Lu Jinghuai saw that Lin Yan's eyes were red, he was at a loss and started to coax her without hesitation.
"Let's eat hand-rolled noodles today. Can I go and do it?"
Lin Yan burst into laughter and nodded. After she came to her senses, she felt a little embarrassed and pursed her lips.
"Am I being unreasonable? But I really want to eat hand-rolled noodles."
Lu Jinghuai had also read a lot of information about pregnancy and other people's pregnancy records.
Pregnant women tend to be sentimental and often want to eat certain foods for no apparent reason. They will feel particularly aggrieved if they cannot eat them. These are all normal.
Lu Jinghuai raised his hand and rubbed Lin Yan's head, his eyes full of helplessness and indulgence: "Tonight, I will make sure you eat hand-rolled noodles."
Lu Jinghuai said this, but he was unsure in his heart. Although he knew how to make a few pies, he learned them when he lived alone after going abroad.
But he had never touched hand-rolled noodles, but he really couldn't bear to disappoint Lin Yan.
Lu Jinghuai entered the kitchen, and Lin Yan followed closely, with his wife's trusting eyes beside him.
Lu Jinghuai paused, but still spoke: "Why don't you go to the living room and wait? You're pregnant and it's tiring to stand here and wait. Go to the living room and eat something."
Lin Yan hesitated for a moment, but she was indeed feeling a little uncomfortable due to hunger, so she nodded obediently.
Only after Lin Yan left the kitchen did Lu Jinghuai breathe a sigh of relief. He took out his mobile phone and found the tutorial for hand-rolled noodles.
Nowadays, there are all kinds of tutorials online, especially for hand-rolled noodles, a popular food in the north. A simple search online will yield dozens of different videos.
Lu Jinghuai picked one of the videos, which looked quite simple, so he started to work on it.
However, hand-rolled noodles look simple in the video, but they are not easy to make. The kneading step at the beginning made Lu Jinghuai frown.
Originally, he wanted to make a bowl of hand-rolled noodles just enough for Lin Yan to eat, but he added more noodles when there was too much water, and more water when there was too much noodles.
Looking at the half plate of dough in front of him, Lu Jinghuai fell silent.
At the same time, Lin Yan was waiting in the living room and felt sleepy. She couldn't resist her hunger and ate an apple.
After about an hour, Lin Yan had suppressed her desire to eat hand-rolled noodles, and she also felt that she was making things difficult for Lu Jinghuai.
Just when I was about to go to the kitchen and tell Lu Jinghuai that he couldn't cook, Lu Jinghuai came out with a bowl of hot noodles.
