Chapter 274: Campus Prince vs. Academic God (75)
It was half an hour after the fireworks were over. Xu Jinxiao was lighting the fireworks in the front, while the other four stood at the back and looked up.
No one left, and everyone enjoyed this festive process together.
After Xu Jinxiao finished setting off the fireworks, Xu's mother immediately called them over.
"Great, come and eat the dumplings, they've been kept warm for half an hour."
Mother Xu smiled gently, her voice as soft as water.
"Okay! Mom's cooking must be delicious!"
Xuyuan was the first one to rush into the house. She was already hungry.
Xu Shan and his three friends also entered the villa. The family happily ate dumplings together, with laughter and joy filling the dining table.
Xu Jinxiao felt their warmth towards him, his eyes curved and a gentle smile filled his fox eyes.
The others also noticed his change and were a little touched deep down. Chang'an was finally not so indifferent to them anymore.
They were as cold and indifferent as enemies before, but now they have finally changed. How can they not be moved?
After dinner, Xu's mother organized a general cleaning, which has always been a tradition in Haicheng.
It is a bit difficult to clean such a big villa. In the past, many servants worked together to clean it, but now they have all gone home for the New Year.
Xu's mother simply asked them to clean only the first to third floors, and that was enough.
Xu Jinxiao took the broom and dustpan and took the initiative to sweep the floor. Xu's mother and Xu Yuan were responsible for carrying basins of water and towels and wiping the tables, chairs, sofas and other furniture, and even the door was not spared.
Xu Che was responsible for stabilizing the ground, while Xu Shan helped out here and there.
The five people in the hall were busy with their own things, and the atmosphere was harmonious.
It took them two hours to finish cleaning, and they were really exhausted.
Everyone slumped on the sofa, no one wanted to move.
Xu Jinxiao held a cup of tea and took a sip from time to time.
"Drink more water."
He glanced at Xuyuan, whose water didn't move much, and urged.
Xuyuan quickly picked up the water cup and drank a few sips obediently.
Seeing this, Xu Jinxiao smiled with satisfaction and rubbed her head lovingly.
They sat there for almost half an hour before they finally came to rest.
Xu's mother stood up and asked them to stand outside the house first, while she was going to perform the next step of the defecation.
Xu Shan and the other three quickly walked out and waited for Su Yun to come with the things.
Su Yun came out quickly, holding a feather duster for cleaning, a basin of water with a few green leaves soaked in it, and a branch with green leaves beside the basin.
"Who's going first?"
"I!"
Make a wish and stretch out your hand to recommend yourself.
The crisp voice and cute expression melted Su Yun's heart.
"Okay, then I'll make the wish first."
She smiled indulgently.
Xu Yuan stood in front of her, and Su Yun roughly swept her whole body with a feather duster. Then she squatted down, dipped a branch in the basin of water, and sprinkled it on Xu Yuan's hand.
After completing these two steps, she touched Xuyuan's head and said gently, "Okay, go in."
“Thank you, Mom!”
Xuyuan bowed 90 degrees and sincerely thanked Su Yun.
"Yuanyuan is so good."
Su Yunle praised her happily.
"Mom, can you also cleanse Xiaobai?"
After making a wish and asking, he quickly ran outside, then ran back with the little fox in his arms.
Standing in front of Su Yun, he looked at her expectantly.
"Of course, it's also a member of our family."
Su Yun immediately agreed and, in accordance with her wish, performed the same cleansing on the little fox.
Xuyuan smiled completely now and rubbed the soft fur of the little fox.
"Great, Xiaobai is as clean as me now!"
She happily ran into the house holding the little fox, sat on the sofa and continued watching the cartoon she had been watching before.
Su Yun then did the same to the other three people, and lastly Xu Shan helped her to cleanse herself.
It was still a long time before noon, and the sound of fireworks and firecrackers outside continued, so they went out together to watch, leaving Xuyuan alone watching cartoons in the house.
There were brilliant fireworks blooming in the sky from every angle outside, and the sound of firecrackers never stopped.
Xu Jinxiao turned his head to look in the direction of Gu Jiuting's house. Fireworks exploded in his eyes and the corners of his mouth involuntarily curled up.
Saw the fireworks at his wife’s house.
The lively scene outside made them excited, and they went into the house to get a lot of fireworks.
Xu Jinxiao and Xu Che took turns setting off fireworks, and soon the sky above the Xu family was filled with fireworks.
Gu Jiuting was also standing outside admiring the fireworks, and he unconsciously looked in the direction of Xu Jinxiao's house.
Seeing the fireworks rising over there, the smile in his eyes deepened.
The two of them were standing at a distance, looking at the fireworks at each other's positions and laughing happily.
In the blink of an eye, it was noon. Xu Shan and Su Yun went to the kitchen to make dumplings, while Xu Jinxiao and Xu Che stood outside and chatted, but Xu Che talked more.
Xu Jinxiao still wanted to maintain his image a little bit, so he chose not to talk much.
“Come and eat dumplings!”
There were dumplings again for lunch, but there were also other snacks, fruits and so on.
The family had lunch happily, and the table was filled with laughter.
In the afternoon, it was time to wish each other a happy new year. The family went to Gu's house first and brought many gifts.
When we arrived at Gu's house, the two families gathered in the hall, and the atmosphere was very joyful.
Xu Shan, Su Yun and the Gu couple exchanged greetings and wished each other a happy new year. Then it was the turn of the younger generations to pay their respects.
After greeting each other, the elders from both families will chat for a while. Since they haven’t had much time together, they may not be that familiar with each other yet.
But now that the two families are familiar with each other, they probably have a lot to talk about.
Xu Jinxiao quietly took Gu Jiuting out. Of course he wanted to spend the New Year with his wife.
Su Yun noticed his little action early on, smiled and shook her head, she couldn't help it in such a short time.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the Gu family's house was decorated with lights and colorful lanterns everywhere. Xu Jinxiao held the hand of his beloved wife and strolled in this red ocean. His heart was like a sponge that had absorbed enough water, soft and fluffy.
Gu Jiuting felt the same as he did, feeling extremely satisfied and smiling gently.
Happy times always pass quickly, and Mr. and Mrs. Xu still have to take them away to visit the next family to pay New Year's greetings.
Xu Jinxiao could only reluctantly part with Gu Jiuting, he would come back.
In the afternoon, people from the four major families greeted each other and visited other families when they had time.
It was already past nine o'clock in the evening when the family returned home.
They were forced to have dinner before they came back, but Su Yun still cooked some dumplings. She felt that eating dumplings together as a family meant they would be reunited in the coming year.
