The sound of fireworks broke the silence of the village.
Immediately afterwards, fireworks burst one after another in the sky above the Duan family compound.
Luo Qingyuan and Duan Ye covered the two children's ears, but they were still very excited, jumping around and laughing non-stop while pointing at the fireworks in the sky.
"Mom and Dad, it looks so good..."
Luo Qingyuan smiled gently and nodded: "Yes, it looks very good."
Luo Shuyang and Chen Manhua were preparing new fireworks, and the two of them filled almost the entire courtyard with them.
Seeing their setup, Duan Ye couldn't help but ask, "How much did they manage to get?"
Luo Qingyuan replied with a smile, "It's nothing, this little bit of money is nothing."
Speaking of this, Duan Ye was very happy because he discovered that Luo Qingyuan was also very good at playing mahjong. The 10,000 yuan he lost in the afternoon was quickly won back, and he even gained an extra 5,000 yuan!
So he was very happy and kissed his son and daughter several times.
The continuous sound of fireworks attracted people from the surrounding villages to come out and watch.
After finishing everything, Luo Shuyang, holding Manman, stood with Chen Manhua.
Duan Ye looked around and saw that even his parents were standing together happily, holding hands. Only Liang Mo was alone with his son, watching the fireworks.
When Duan Ye came to his senses, Luo Qingyuan kissed him, and Duan Ye was immediately taken aback.
"I'm going to keep my sister-in-law company."
So Luo Qingyuan handed Duan Luo to Duan Ye.
The scene changed instantly.
Duan Ye looked like a lonely old man, watching fireworks alone with two noisy children.
Under the fireworks, his wife was chatting and laughing with the very handsome Liang Mo.
There was no way around it; Liang Mo's sister-in-law had such a powerful aura that she looked just like a strong woman. Yet, she and Luo Qingyuan were strangely harmonious together.
This made Duan Ye a little jealous, but...
That's his sister-in-law!
Therefore, Duan Ye had no choice but to shut up.
The fireworks show ended half an hour later, and the air was still filled with the smell of fireworks. The adults quickly took the children home.
Luo Qingyuan received a call from Ms. Zhao.
"Hello, Mom."
Happy New Year, Qingyuan.
Happy New Year, Mom! Are you and Dad together?
"Yes, we're abroad. It's summer there right now. Your dad and I have already traveled to quite a few countries, and we're thinking of going to Australia next month to visit your uncle."
Since Ms. Zhao stopped taking care of her child, she resolutely embarked on a travel journey.
Originally, Luo Qingyuan's father was busy with work and was rarely home throughout the year, but he would still visit Ms. Zhao whenever he had time, especially during important holidays like the Chinese New Year, he would usually not be absent.
Luo Qingyuan replied with a smile, "Okay, then you guys go, I'll reimburse you. Have fun, and come back whenever you're done."
Ms. Zhao smiled happily: "Okay, the New Year's gifts for you and your son-in-law have arrived at the old house in Kyoto. Go and pick them up yourselves."
Upon hearing this, Luo Qingyuan asked curiously, "What is it, Mom?"
Ms. Zhao said mysteriously, "Go see for yourself. Duan Luo and Duan Chen's are also here; they've all arrived together."
"knew."
"I'm not talking to you anymore, I'm going to call your brother."
"good."
After hanging up the phone, Luo Qingyuan raised her eyebrows, feeling very pleased.
Duan Ye's laughter rang out from behind: "Hahaha, Chenchen, how can you be so cute?"
Duan Chen: "Dad, are you trying to say I'm stupid?"
Duan Ye: "No, Dad is praising you..."
Duan Chen: "Dad, your laughter makes me feel like you're mocking me, waaaaah..."
Duan Ye laughed even more heartily.
Even Duan Luo giggled.
Luo Qingyuan smiled helplessly, but more than that, she felt warm.
Because there were many people coming to the house today and not enough rooms, Duan Luo and Duan Chen slept with them tonight.
When Luo Qingyuan returned after making the call, Duan Ye had already finished washing up with the children and they were playing cards in bed.
Luo Qingyuan then took a shower and dried her hair before coming out.
By this time, the two children were already fast asleep.
Duan Ye opened his eyes and saw Luo Qingyuan getting into bed and preparing to turn off the bedside lamp, while the child slept between them.
Duan Ye carefully moved the child away and slept next to Luo Qingyuan.
Luo Qingyuan: "..."
Duan Ye hugged her waist and lay down before saying, "You can turn it off."
Then, with a "click," the entire room was plunged into darkness.
Duan Ye then moved even closer to Luo Qingyuan.
Luo Qingyuan: "You're about to push me off the bed."
Duan Ye: "..." He didn't say anything, but touched the side where Luo Qingyuan was sleeping, and then pulled her closer to himself.
"Sister Luo..."
Luo Qingyuan was almost asleep when she heard his voice. Although she was very sleepy, she still subconsciously nuzzled his face and softly replied, "What's wrong, baby?"
Duan Ye's heart melted completely because of how she addressed him.
With Luo Qingyuan, he could always get a response and be assured that he was loved.
I want to call out to you.
So, Luo Qingyuan just smiled gently, turned to the side, and buried herself in his arms.
"Mmm, I miss you too."
Luo Qingyuan nudged Duan Ye: "Don't take the child's blankets away."
Duan Ye then reached behind and touched the two children. Good heavens, there were no blankets.
Duan Ye regained his senses for a moment, then covered the children with the blankets again before gently holding Luo Qingyuan in his arms.
When the four of them are together, Duan Ye feels warm and at peace.
Soon, it was midnight.
The sounds of fireworks and firecrackers outside started up again.
Duan Ye was half asleep. In his dream, there were many, many people, including Grandma Luo, Nan Xing, and Ye Nuan. It was very noisy.
Ye Nuan's face contorted with rage as she demanded to know why he didn't want her.
There was also Nanxing with a smiling face, but she asked her in a sinister tone, "Why are you treating me like this?"
And Grandma Luo said: Duan Ye, you must not let my Qingyuan down.
Too many complicated things made Duan Ye's head feel a little fuzzy and throbbing, but he still woke up. Upon closer inspection, he realized that he had only been asleep for less than an hour.
In his arms lay Luo Qingyuan's peaceful and beautiful sleeping face, and he instantly felt less afraid.
He lowered his head and kissed her lips: "Happy New Year, my wife."
Hearing the sounds outside, he hugged Luo Qingyuan even tighter.
He cherished this hard-won happiness.
He will never forget the words, "Cherish the people in front of you."
He wanted to spend every New Year with her from now on, to make up for the five years they had missed.
Duan Ye quickly drifted off to sleep again, almost thinking that he would never receive a response from Luo Qingyuan.
But unexpectedly, a wet kiss landed on my lips.
Immediately, he heard his lover's voice in his ear: "Happy New Year, husband."
