Chapter 182 New Year



It was already dark outside, and the system was open for a rare moment. Today, it was no longer pitch black, but was dotted with starlight.

Anran went over and turned on the colorful lights, and the entire Cloud Island was illuminated in seven colors, sparkling and extremely beautiful.

An Ran also flew outside to admire her own Cloud Island from a distance.

The colorful Cloud Island is like a guiding light embedded in the endless night, illuminating the way home.

I looked as far as I could and finally saw another cloud island emitting red light from a very far distance.

It is estimated to be about 100 to 180 miles away. After all, there is no obstruction in the sky and the view is unobstructed.

Fly back to Cloud Island, open the lanterns, clapped your hands, and invited everyone to have dinner.

You will be busy tomorrow, so go to bed early.

Having said that, An Ran ended up staying up until midnight again. There was nothing she could do because the free movie was too exciting.

When Anran got up in the morning, she first set off a string of firecrackers. The crackling sound of the firecrackers echoed far into the air.

She was the only one playing the harp in the sky, and it sounded empty and not very lively.

In the morning, I heat up the food from last night and eat it. In the morning, I huddle together with everyone to eat melon seeds, fruits and watch the Spring Festival Gala from previous years.

At around ten o'clock, we started preparing lunch.

The custom there is to have a big meal at noon, eat what's left at night, and eat dumplings around twelve o'clock.

This time, drag the disaster along to help.

They prepared together, including picking vegetables, washing vegetables, cutting meat, peeling garlic, etc.

I'm going to make eight dishes for lunch today, including fish, meat and seafood.

Put on an apron, heat oil in a pan, and start cooking.

Sweet and sour spare ribs, braised carp, steamed king crab, braised prawns, stir-fried garlic shoots with meat, candied sweet potato, cucumber with jellyfish, and cold skin jelly.

Because there are many mouths to feed at home, I made a lot of each.

As for the king crabs and shrimps, she exchanged them for meat with people in the trading area.

After cooking, she set off a string of firecrackers before eating to add to the festive atmosphere.

The air conditioner was on in the living room, so it was very warm. A man and several pets were sitting around the table.

All the family members were there. Xiaoqi and Laoliu had different food, so she took down the unsold pets hanging in the trading area and gave them as food.

There was cola, white wine, beer and Xiao Yuntuan’s favorite milk tea on the table. The little guy is no longer drunk on cola, but now he loves milk tea more.

Zai'e and Changjun transformed into human form. Qianyu has not reached their level yet, so he cannot transform and can only squat aside.

Anran poured Coke and raised her glass, "Cheers, Happy New Year."

【Happy New Year.】

Changjun and Zai'e wanted to try white wine, and Anran didn't stop them. After all, it was only a few days, so why not indulge themselves a little? It wouldn't be a big deal if they got drunk.

As long as these two don't act crazy when they're drunk, it's fine.

The table was filled with dishes, and everyone enjoyed the meal very much. However, Anran's preparation was not sufficient, and there was not much food left, so they had to cook more in the evening.

After a short rest after dinner, Anran started to knead the dough, chop vegetables, and prepare dumplings for dinner.

This is how Chinese New Year is, basically it’s all about eating, drinking, preparing delicious food, and a whole lot of other things.

Zai'e was more dexterous than Changjun. After Anran taught him only a few times, he mastered the trick of making dumplings, and the ones he made were even better looking than Anran's.

Dumplings are also available with various fillings to satisfy everyone's different appetites so that you don't get tired of them.

After wrapping the dumplings, put them aside for a while and cook them when the time is right.

It took several people an entire afternoon just to make the dumplings.

The dumplings are small, but they eat more, so of course the quantity has to increase.

After finishing the wrapping, Anran shook her numb hands and aching waist, and looked at the dumplings on the large grates, feeling a sense of accomplishment.

Because she had no time and was lazy, she hadn't eaten dumplings she made herself for a long time. Most of the time she ate frozen dumplings.

After all, quick-frozen food is not as fresh and delicious as freshly packed food, and the taste is different.

But after I finished wrapping the dumplings, I was too lazy to cook dinner, so I just ate some of the dishes she stewed.

Set off a string of firecrackers before dinner and another string when eating dumplings.

China hasn't allowed the setting off of fireworks for a long time, but I didn't expect that it would be fun once we entered the game.

After dinner, they continued watching the movie. Changjun and the others were sitting together playing cards. This was something Changjun had picked out from Anran's mind and now he had developed it further.

An Ran actually doesn’t know how to play cards, she only knows the rules and doesn’t like to join in the fun, so she lets them play by themselves while she watches a movie.

The movie was playing with scary sound effects, and Anran was crackling melon seeds while complaining that it was too fake.

I've never seen anyone watching a horror movie during Chinese New Year.

At about ten o'clock, Anran took paper money and yellow paper and burned them for her mother.

Although I don’t know if my mother can receive it since we are in a world apart, my intention must be conveyed.

The New Year spent alone was actually more lively than before. Her heart, which had been lonely for too long, finally found a place to settle down.

Anran took out the fireworks and lit them. After all, no one said that fireworks could only be set off on the 15th, so she could set them off as she pleased.

Amid the crackling sound of fireworks in the sky, the light shone on Anran's face.

Amid the explosion, An Ran loudly asked Chang Jun and the others beside her.

"If I could leave the game one day, would you guys be willing to leave with me?"

Chang Jun and the others exchanged glances and said, "Of course I'm willing."

If that time really comes, An Ran will probably have already left the game and become a god, and naturally have the ability to take them away.

Thousands of feathers flapped their wings and rushed into the sky. Under their control, countless points of light shot up into the clouds, like countless scattered fireworks raining down from the sky.

It's breathtakingly beautiful.

An Ran grinned in the fireworks. This was the most relaxing time of her life.

Anran played with them outside for a long time, and only returned to the house after setting off half of the huge pile of fireworks, feeling unsatisfied.

It was just past 11 o'clock, and Anran and Changjun had digested the food in their stomachs.

Boil water in a pot and add dumplings when the water boils.

After eating dumplings, Anran pulled them to stay up all night, and they kept making noise until after 1 a.m. before going to bed.

The temperature outside dropped again, and freezing rain fell from the sky instead of snowflakes.

Freezing rain fell on Cloud Island and quickly froze into a thick layer of ice.

Everything was frozen, even the fruit trees that An Ran had built a greenhouse for were all frozen to death.

The ice continued to spread, freezing all the houses in a thick layer of ice.

The air in the house gradually decreased, and no air could enter the airtight room that was frozen.

An Ran was suffocated and woke up. She resigned herself to her fate and went out to shovel the ice with her weapon.

She knew that the crappy system would not allow them to spend the New Year in peace.

She shoveled the ice off the cracks in the doors and windows and left the rest alone for the time being. She didn't want to do anything else late at night, especially since it was Chinese New Year today.

She just wanted to sleep.

After shoveling the ventilated area, Anran yawned and went back.

Let’s talk about it tomorrow. Today, just being able to breathe is enough.
