Chapter 255 New Year's Day
After dinner, Zhong Hui took Zhong Xu and Linlin to Xinhe Community to set off fireworks. On the riverbank, many parents had already come with their children. The two children joined in with their own fireworks, and were so happy that they didn't know what to do.
It was really lively tonight, with fireworks constantly going off overhead. Zhong Hui set off one symbolically and then stopped to watch them play.
Suddenly, the cell phone rang. Zhong Hui picked it up and saw that it was a text message from Xu Weian: Ah Hui, Happy New Year.
Zhong Hui also replied with a Happy New Year. Xu Weian called soon after: "What are you doing?"
"Take Linlin out to set off the fireworks." Zhong Hui looked up at the sky. "The fireworks are getting more and more beautiful nowadays."
Xu Weian stood on his balcony, looking at the colorful night sky in the distance, and nodded in agreement: "It's quite beautiful."
"Are you free after the New Year? Can we go play around for a couple of days?"
"We'll see when the time comes."
"Okay, we can go to the beach. The sea breeze isn't cold at this time of year. Standing on the beach, the water is crystal blue. It will definitely be beautiful for taking photos."
"When the time comes, I'll grab a camera and take some beautiful photos of you."
The two chatted casually, and Zhong Hui responded softly.
…
It's the first day of the new year again. I slept late last night and have to get up early today. Zhong Xiong said that he would go to Baiyun Temple to be the first to burn incense today. This year's business will definitely be booming.
The family set off at six o'clock in the morning. On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Baiyun Temple was bustling with people. They arrived at five o'clock and the smoke from the incense burner was already high.
After coming out of Baiyun Temple, it was almost dawn, so I hurried back to have breakfast. After breakfast, I started visiting every household to wish them a happy new year.
This year they moved to Bixi Garden. They planned to start from Bixi Garden and slowly walk all the way to Xinhe Community. Along the way, they would visit every house to wish each other a happy new year.
Zhong Hui and Linlin both wore burgundy wool coats today, which looked nice and festive. After getting dressed, the mother and daughter prepared to go out.
Just as I opened the door, Zhao Xiqian came upstairs: "Aunt Zhong, Happy New Year, Linlin, Happy New Year."
Zhao Xiqian looked cheerful, wearing a princess-style white coat and a bow hairpin.
"Happy New Year, Happy New Year." Zhong Hui welcomed the person in. "Qianqian, take whatever candy you want."
After letting Linlin entertain Zhao Xiqian, Zhong Hui went into the room again and took out a red envelope: "Qianqian, have a happy new year."
Zhao Xiqian took it and said, "Thank you, Aunt Zhong."
After seeing Zhao Xiqian off, Zhong Hui first took Linlin upstairs to wish Zhong Xiong and Yang Fangqin a happy new year, and then went downstairs together.
"Aunt, Happy New Year, may you be prosperous, and give me the red envelope." As soon as she entered the door, Zhong Hui's good nephew Zhong Xu knelt down to greet her.
"Happy New Year, Happy New Year." Zhong Hui was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and quickly took out a big red envelope.
Zhong Xu took it, felt the thickness, and his mouth grinned behind his ears.
"Aunt, I'll go to your house later to wish you a happy new year."
Zhong Hui waved her hand: "That's not necessary."
"It's coming, it's coming."
Zhong Hui was amused by this funny guy. Yang Fangqin closed her eyes. Jian Shou couldn't bear to look at this lackey.
"Uncle, aunt, happy new year."
"Happy New Year, Happy New Year." Yang Fangqin gave Linlin another red envelope.
This is how the New Year is celebrated, with people wishing each other a happy new year and saying hello. In just one morning, Zhong Hui didn't realize how many times she had said "Happy New Year" (Happy New Year).
When they arrived at Xinhe Community, Aunt Meihua saw them coming and hurried out to greet them.
