Chapter 118: Long and Short Winter Vacation



As usual, the New Year's Eve dinner was eaten at Jian Yunxi's house. Comrade Jian Feng, as the head chef, had been busy since early in the morning. Jian Yunxi's uncle was his assistant, washing and cutting vegetables.

Jian Yunxi played poker with her younger brother and sister, paying one dollar per round. She ended up beating her junior high school cousin so hard that he screamed in defeat.

Grandpa and grandma are still fanning the flames: "Keep playing, if you run out of money, grandpa/grandma will support you."

In the end, I felt sorry for my cousin and decided to change the note.

When the meal finally started, my cousin's face was covered with paper. Everyone burst into laughter.

"Humph, my parents blame you for not having a second child. Every time, my eldest sister, second sister and my brother beat me up."

Second Aunt Jian Yunxi was not happy: "Child, you have to perform for a while every year. Don't I want to have a child? Isn't this a policy?"

It was not until after dinner that Jian Yunxi promised to take him to buy fireworks, and his cousin became happy again.

Before the Spring Festival Gala began, Jian Yunxi and Lu Yang called each other to express their longing for each other.

"It's better to celebrate the New Year in my hometown. Beijing has long banned fireworks." This is the first time in Lu Yang's life that he has not celebrated the New Year in his hometown. He feels that there is no festive atmosphere at all.

Although we used to live in our hometown, the three of us would reunite every year. I didn’t expect that after moving to Beijing, his father would have to work overtime at the company during the Chinese New Year.

"Did Uncle ask for the shift himself?"

"Yes, my dad said that his colleagues used to take care of him so that he could go home to spend the New Year with his wife and children. He wants to carry forward this spirit this year."

"Uncle is such a nice person." Jian Yunxi met Lu Yang's parents when she was a senior in high school. They both looked like cultured and well-educated people.

"Lu Yang, what are you laughing at, huh." Lu Yang's chuckle came from the other end of the phone. Jian Yunxi somehow understood the meaning and her face suddenly turned red.

"I think my dad would be happy if he heard you praising him like that."

Lu Yang liked the way Jian Yunxi spoke whatever he wanted.

Someone outside shouted, "Fireworks are being set off, come out and watch them!"

Jian Yunxi was dragged out by her sister while holding her cell phone. With a "bang", a golden firework exploded, instantly lighting up the entire night sky.

"Lu Yang, look!" Jian Yunxi subconsciously raised his phone to the sky, then he remembered that he couldn't see it at all.

Lu Yang's low laugh came from the other end of the phone: "Yun Xi, I heard it!"

Another cluster of fireworks bloomed in the night. "Wow, this time it's purple, so beautiful, like lavender growing in the sky."

Lu Yang's voice came with a mixture of electric current: "Yun Xi, do you like fireworks?"

"I like it, it's so beautiful!"

"I heard from Wang Pu that there will be a fireworks show in Qinhuangdao on the 15th day of the first lunar month. Can I take you to see it then?"

The last huge firework bloomed in the night sky, turning into thousands of stars and slowly falling. Jian Yunxi looked at the gradually darkening sky and whispered, "Okay, it's a deal."

Jian Yunxi's school starts on the 18th of the first lunar month. She originally wanted to buy a ticket for the 16th of the first lunar month so that she could spend the Lantern Festival at home before returning to school.

As a result, train tickets after the New Year were in short supply, and everyone had the same idea as her, so Jian Yunxi could only buy a ticket that lasted for a little after 11:00 p.m. on the 14th day of the first lunar month.

It turned out that she was thinking of staying in the dormitory alone for two or three days, and she thought the cafeteria and library would probably be closed.

Now that was good, she could go traveling to Qinhuangdao with Lu Yang before returning to school. Jian Yunxi was not conflicted at all.

Jian Yunxi's younger brothers and sisters started school on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year. She had nothing to do at home, so she went to her aunt's house in the city to play for a few days.

My little cousin can almost walk, and she is so cute calling “Sister, sister”.

Jian Yunxi took his lucky money and went to the mall to buy two new sets of clothes for his little cousin. It was a new year and a new look!

He also bought a set of warm clothes for his aunt's mother-in-law, with thick wool sewn at the knees and waist. The old lady smiled from ear to ear and kept praising Jian Yunxi.

As a result, before Jian Yunxi went home, her aunt bought her a long down jacket in light yellow, bought the same fruit green down jacket for Jian Yunxiao, and bought sneakers from internationally renowned sports brands for her younger brother and cousin.

Li Meiling was packing up Jian Yunxi's things while muttering, "Niegu is bleeding a lot. It doesn't matter if you go there once. She spent thousands of dollars."

"Don't worry, Mom. I'll buy something for Auntie when I get the scholarship."

Li Meiling smiled and shook her head. She had already made up her mind that when her sister-in-law came back one day, she would give her child a big red envelope.

Before Jian Yunxi left, she had to do one important thing, which was to check her CET-4 score. To be honest, she was not worried at all, as she knew she would definitely pass, it just depended on how many points she could get.

So the group of beautiful and elite students in 307 became lively again.

You are the one to blame: Bodhisattva, Buddha, please bless me!

Miaomiaomiao: Definitely pass!

Mr. Sanshui: But that would be too embarrassing. My mother would definitely beat me to death.

It’s a Cloud, Not a Moon: Everyone is so nervous, but after counting on my fingers, I think everyone will pass.

Miaomiaomiao: Master Jian, can you help me calculate again? Can I get over 600 points?

You are the one who is to blame: Oh my god! 600 points! My goal is not too high, 580 is fine.

It's the clouds, not the moon: This immortal can count with his fingers, and all your wishes will come true.

Mr. Sanshui: Immortal, I haven’t told you my wish yet!

It is a cloud, not a moon: The donor came too late, please come earlier next year.

Mr. Sanshui: Ahhhhhh, do we need to wait until next year? I don’t want to live anymore.

When they checked the scores the next day, Guo Xinyue scored 581 points and Sun Qimiao scored 602 points.

The two of them sent the transcript to the group, calling Jian Yunxi a true god, and Huang Miao didn't dare to check it anymore.
