That night, Shen Fang behaved himself and slept alone. His parents came over, and he didn't want to embarrass Chen Huilin. Xiao Pang didn't mind, but the woman was making too much noise, and it wouldn't be good if she were heard.
The next day at dawn.
"Son, wake up, wake up."
Shen Fang rubbed his eyes and watched as his mother, with her hair up and wearing pajamas, walked in.
"Here, milk."
Shen Fang sat up, took the milk, and drank it while looking at his mother.
What time is it?
Liu Yue'e sat down on the edge of the bed.
"It's past 7 o'clock, get up quickly, it's almost auspicious time, get up quickly, I'll go call Linlin and Bingbing."
"No, I'll go call them."
Shen Fang lifted the covers and started getting dressed. In their family, there was no such thing as a son hiding something from his mother. His mother's personality was such that she felt there was nothing she couldn't see about her own children.
She suddenly went to Chen Huilin and Xiaopang's room to call for them. Although she didn't say anything, she wasn't their biological mother after all.
Shen Fang arrived at Chen Huilin's room.
At this moment, Chen Huilin was still fast asleep at the head of the bed.
Shen Fang walked up to Chen Huilin and kissed her forehead.
"Linlin, wake up, get up."
Chen Huilin woke up, rubbed her eyes, stretched, and yawned repeatedly.
"Why so early? Darling, sweetie."
Shen Fang smiled and kissed Chen Huilin.
"Get up, it's our family tradition to welcome the God of Wealth at 8 a.m. I'll go wake up Little Fatty."
Shen Fang went to Xiao Pang's room again and woke him up.
Little Fatty stayed in bed, unwilling to move.
"It's only 7:40. They won't even let people sleep in during the Lunar New Year."
Shen Fang patted Xiao Pang's pert buttocks.
"Get up quickly, or my mom will come and wake you up."
Upon hearing Shen Fang's words, Fan Xiaopang immediately sat up straight. She had completely forgotten that Shen's mother was here. With her future mother-in-law present, what kind of behavior would it be to sleep in?
Shen Fang looked at Fan Xiaopang with a smile.
"Oh, so you're finally willing to move?"
Fan Xiaopang pouted: "Ugh, let's go outside and I'll change my clothes. Do you want to watch me change?"
Shen Fang grinned mischievously: "What's wrong with looking?"
Fan Xiaopang beckoned with a charming gesture.
"Want to spar with me?"
Sinking Square.....
"Ahem, today's the right time. Let's spar again in a couple of days, you little vixen."
Shen Fang pinched a handful of Xiao Pang's steamed buns and walked out of the room.
Everyone had breakfast at 8 o'clock.
Liu Yue'e set out the statue of the God of Wealth she had bought yesterday, and prepared offerings and yellow paper.
Shen's father knelt directly in front of the God of Wealth, clasping his hands together in prayer.
"Sir, I hope you will bless our Shenjia Village this year, and bless my son with good fortune, good health, and all the best."
He kowtowed three times.
Little Fatty stared blankly at Shen Fang.
"What are they doing?"
"Welcoming the God of Wealth, also known as welcoming the Lord, is a custom in our area. You can say what your wishes are and ask the God of Wealth for help so you can fulfill your vows next year."
Fan Xiaopang nodded.
Liu Yue'e had already finished worshipping the God of Wealth and presented Shen Fang with three huge incense sticks.
“Son, you’ve had such good fortune these past few years. Remember to have a golden statue made for Grandpa this year. The wish I made last year has come true this year. Grandpa is really protecting you.”
Shen Fang took the incense and candles and knelt down beside the master, looking at the God of Wealth with great respect.
"My lord, thank you for protecting and taking care of me all these years. On August 8th this year, I will help you recast your golden statue at Wudang Mountain. I hope you will bless me with good fortune and success."
He lit the incense and candles, looked at the master, and kowtowed three times.
Stand up.
Little Ma and Zeng Liqing also prayed, especially after hearing how effective it was.
Little Ma made a grand vow.
May everything go smoothly for the penguin this year, and may it successfully go public. I promise to add incense to the altar next year.
Xiao Pang and Chen Huilin also bowed. Their wish was simple: to become famous and to be with Shen Fang forever, growing old together.
Next up is Shen Lanlan.
Shen Lanlan knelt directly in front of the master, holding the huge incense candle.
"Master, my biggest wish in this life is to live a life of leisure and idleness. So far, I've already achieved more than half of that wish. For the rest of my life, I want to continue living a carefree, leisurely life. Also, my great-uncle is very unfriendly to me. I would appreciate it if you could ask him to be more polite to me. If you grant my wish, I promise to burn joss paper for you and offer you tribute every month. The offerings will be plentiful."
He kowtowed three times.
Shen Fang was speechless when he heard Shen Lanlan's willingness.
This guy is deliberately trying to be a freeloader!
Shen Kun finished the job.
I've had breakfast.
Shen Fang and Shen Kun put up the Spring Festival couplets. The room was also cleaned, and Shen Fang sent Aunt Chen a red envelope.
Aunt Chen quickly bowed and said, "Thank you, boss."
Shen Fang waved her hand and pointed to the gift beside her: "Aunt Chen, this is a New Year's gift for you. Take it home. Thank you for taking care of us all year. This is just a small token of our appreciation."
"No, no need."
"Aunt Chen, please accept this. It's our custom where we're from. There's nothing else, just some New Year's goods. Take them home. Xiao Kun is here to see you off, Aunt Chen."
Shen Kun, carrying the New Year's goods, left with Aunt Chen.
After a simple lunch, Shen's father didn't drink any more alcohol. Shen Fang was certain that his father had been dealt with last night.
Chen Huilin went to the rehearsal site early in the morning, and Shen Fang saw that it was already 4 o'clock.
"Dad, Mom, are you ready? Let's get ready to leave."
Dad came out of the bathroom, now wearing a red coat and scarf, his hair was combed to a shine, his beard was shaved, and his face looked very healthy.
