Chapter 439 A Passerby in a Time-Travel Novel (19)
Looking at the drum set in the room, it's clear that Jiang Yue has been practicing for a while. Let's arrange a talent show for her tomorrow, since she hasn't posted any videos on Douyin except for live streams for quite some time.
When the time came, Jiang Yue started her live stream on time. Compared to those streamers who are often late, she was still good; at least she wasn't late.
Today, I ended my live stream on the hour. After the stream, I took a shower and went to bed. The refrigerator was delivered the next day after breakfast. The delivery speed from JD.com is quite fast. When installing the new refrigerator, I spent some money to have the old refrigerator moved upstairs. Jiang's father said he wanted to move it, but Jiang Yue refused. He said it would be too troublesome if she hurt her back. He still thinks he is a young person.
The refrigerator was full again soon after it was installed. It seems like this is the case in the whole house. The refrigerator capacity is never enough. After a few days, Grandma and Grandpa got tired of staying there, so Jiang Yue and her father sent them back to the village.
Two days after Grandma and Grandma passed away, the beef and mutton that Jiang Yue bought arrived. Jiang Yue had asked her fans to buy it from a region known for its delicious beef and mutton. The meat was freshly slaughtered and shipped, and the shipping cost was quite high.
After the items arrived, Jiang Yue made another trip to the village to deliver them to the elderly, and also bought a lot of fresh vegetables so that they wouldn't hesitate to buy them.
Time passed slowly, and before they knew it, the Spring Festival was almost here. Jiang Xin finally got a holiday. Because she hadn't had a holiday all year, this time she got a full two weeks off, which made her extremely happy.
After bringing Jiang Xin back, they also brought the elderly over. With a few days left before the Lunar New Year, the whole family took some time to go shopping. Everyone, young and old, bought new clothes. It's important to have a sense of ritual for the New Year.
Then I started buying all sorts of New Year's goods, seafood, various meats, vegetables, dried fruits, etc., and I was busy every day until the Spring Festival arrived.
On the day of the Spring Festival, the whole family got up early to put up Spring Festival couplets and hang lanterns, and they were very busy.
Jiang Yue also specially filmed a short video to show her family's lively New Year celebration, and fans left comments and likes.
Around noon, the table was filled with delicious food, emitting an enticing aroma. Everyone sat together, laughing and chatting. Jiang Xin recounted funny stories from her work, making her grandparents and great-grandparents laugh heartily.
After the New Year's Eve dinner, the elders started giving out red envelopes, which Jiang Yue and Jiang Xin happily accepted, just like when they were children.
While staying up all night to welcome the New Year, Jiang Yue suggested playing a game where the loser had to perform. Jiang's father kept losing, so he reluctantly sang an old song. Although he was a little off-key, it was full of warmth.
After staying up all night to welcome the New Year, everyone was a little tired, so they went back to their rooms to rest. The next morning, the New Year's sun shone into the house, and the family gathered together again to make dumplings.
On New Year's Eve, Jiang Yue tested herself and was quite satisfied with the results, having perfectly achieved her learning goals.
After completing the assessment, Bai Zesheng developed a new study plan. He also integrated the knowledge he had acquired in this world and sent out the gift package, hoping to see if the scholars and scientists in this world could spark some new ideas.
I ate dumplings for breakfast on the first day of the Lunar New Year. Although I had put a coin in the dumpling beforehand, I made so many dumplings that I couldn't taste it at all during my meals on New Year's Eve and the first day of the Lunar New Year.
"Where did this coin go? I ate three bowls of dumplings and still couldn't find it."
"I bet the dumplings fell into the pot again after being overcooked. Ask your dad if he found them when he was washing the pot yesterday."
"I didn't notice the dumplings falling out while I was washing the pot these past two days. There aren't many dumplings left, but I should be able to tell if they've fallen out after another day of eating."
It wasn't until the second day of the Lunar New Year that Mr. Jiang found the coin in his food. This doesn't mean Mr. Jiang is lucky or anything like that. It's just that after eating dumplings for two days in a row, no one in the family wanted to eat them anymore, and Mr. Jiang ate all the remaining dumplings by himself. So it must have been Mr. Jiang who found it.
Jiang Yue didn't visit relatives much in this world. Her parents were only children, and frankly, she didn't keep in touch with the descendants of the previous generation's relatives. She only visited relatives with her father and his family. If Jiang Yue had a child who was also an only child, she probably wouldn't need to visit relatives during the Chinese New Year.
However, even without relatives, there are still friends, and we get together during the Chinese New Year to keep ourselves busy.
By the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, Jiang Xin's school had started, while Jiang Yue had already started broadcasting. She only took two days off around the thirtieth. She received many more gifts than usual during the New Year, but she also sent out a lot of red envelopes, so she didn't earn much in the end.
Time seemed to accelerate after the New Year. In the blink of an eye, Jiang Yue and her father were doing farm work in their hometown. They were helping the elderly grow vegetables. They didn't actually need their help, but Jiang's parents felt sorry for them.
I reckon in a few months Jiang Yue will have more green beans, eggplants, and persimmons than she can eat. Thinking about this, I immediately don't want to farm anymore. All these years I've been making things difficult for myself. There are still dried green beans and eggplants left over from the winter that we haven't finished eating.
After remembering this, Jiang Yue prepared a sumptuous dried vegetable feast that evening. Perhaps because she hadn't eaten it for a while, she thought it was quite delicious. Actually, it's okay to eat anything occasionally; eating lobster every day would get boring.
After dinner, I played some mobile games on live stream. The Wi-Fi had been on for a while, so the game ran smoothly. The next day, I worked all day and finished planting everything. The Jiang family then went home.
After arriving home, Jiang Yue picked up the things she bought from the courier station. She carried a bunch of packages upstairs. Once home, she started unpacking them. There were all sorts of random things in the packages. After a while, Jiang Yue didn't even know what she had bought anymore, because she bought things without a purpose. She would just buy something if she saw it on Douyin (TikTok) and thought it looked good.
Jiang Yue found some cured meat in the package. She stir-fried it for lunch. The cured meat tasted good. She bought it from a fan's shop. The entire process, from purchasing live pigs to processing, can be traced. Jiang Yue confirmed that it was safe before buying it. It wasn't that she was overthinking it; it's just that food safety issues these days are too worrying.
"This cured meat tastes good? Where did you buy it?" Dad asked Mom after taking a few bites.
"I don't know, maybe Xiaoyue bought it?"
"Yes, one of my fans sells this at home. The quality is guaranteed. This is my first time buying it."
"Buy more next time and send some to your grandma and the others."
"Um."
After dinner, Jiang Yue promoted the products in her fan group. This wasn't the first time she'd done this; now, many fans tag her every day to buy her products, which makes them feel confident in purchasing anything recommended by Jiang Yue.
Of course, there are also many people who want to take shortcuts. A beverage brand offered Jiang Yue 5 million yuan in cash to recommend it, but Jiang Yue refused because she really couldn't recommend saccharin water.
Jiang's father even said to buy more, but there's no need to buy anymore. With this recommendation, the fans will definitely send her some. Last time, Jiang Yue wanted to buy some high-quality sweet potato noodles, but the fans' stock was all sold out. The fans offered her money, but she didn't accept it. In the end, they sent her a bunch of sweet potato noodles, which she gave to many people and they ate for a long time.
