"Sister Li and the others are here. Do you want to go and talk to them?" Pei Xinghe let go of his wife's hand when he saw the neighbors coming to the door.
"Well, I'm going to go talk to them. You can go out and play too!"
A few days ago, Pei Weidong said that he would play poker during the New Year. It was still early for the dumplings dinner in the evening, so they could go out and play in the afternoon.
She could also talk to her neighbor Mrs. Li and others, as someone would probably come to visit soon.

Because it was Chinese New Year, several neighbor sisters-in-law came over with only a few things. They put the peanuts, melon seeds, and pine nuts they brought on the table and everyone ate together.
They didn't come here to take advantage, but because Gu Qingmeng's house was warm, and she and Han Qiongyin were also friends, so a few familiar people made an appointment to come here to chat.
"Wow, sister, you are so generous. You even take out something as precious as cookies to treat our guests."
