Su Xinyi pouted and glanced at Ye Beiping.
The latter was somewhat helpless and could only take the firecrackers and light them with her sister in the yard.
Bang!
Snap!
Crackling sounds!
A burst of firecrackers went off, and it seemed that the surrounding area responded, with crackling sounds everywhere.
It's Chinese New Year.
Kids love to play, and some parents who dote on their children will definitely bring some back for their little ones when they go to town to buy New Year's goods.
Some children had already finished their playoffs before the Lunar New Year.
However, some children, because their families were poor, would rush out after their New Year's Eve dinner to pick up the unexploded firecrackers from the doorways of every household to play with.
Tao Qiuyan glanced at the door, patted Su Xinyi's hand and said, "Xinyi, we haven't had a proper chat yet. Today is New Year's Eve, and we have nothing to do, so we can finally have a chat."
Seeing Ye Beiping and Ye Xiaoxin having so much fun outside, Su Xinyi felt a slight urge to join them.
Hearing Tao Qiuyan's words, he instantly came to his senses and was slightly surprised.
After a pause, Tao Qiuyan continued, "It would be a lie to say I didn't care about what Qiu Mingyue said earlier. Beiping is our family's only son, so of course I care..."
At this point, Su Xinyi's heart tightened, and she became slightly nervous.
Tao Qiuyan noticed it, and patted Su Xinyi's hand as a gesture of comfort.
“But I’ve come to terms with it. You two are going to spend your whole lives together, and you’ll definitely have children in the future. Before, our family was poor, and we always felt that Beiping wasn’t good enough for you. Now that Beiping is doing well, Mom hopes that you can live a good life with Beiping.”
"Money isn't really important. What's important is that the whole family is happy and healthy."
Su Xinyi, who was initially nervous, suddenly teared up upon hearing this.
I never expected Tao Qiuyan to think that way.
However, she couldn't explain anything. Qiu Mingyue's words had been stuck in her heart, causing her confusion and speculation.
But she still felt love from Ye Beiping, so Su Xinyi almost forgot about it.
"Mom." Moved, she threw herself into Tao Qiuyan's arms and began to sob softly.
Seeing her like this, Tao Qiuyan comforted her as if she were Ye Xiaoxin, patting her back repeatedly: "Don't cry, don't cry, I didn't say anything to you, child. When Beiping comes in and sees this, he'll think I've bullied you."
Pfft!
The joking remark made Su Xinyi burst into laughter through her tears.
Outside the door, Ye Beiping generously gave all the firecrackers he had to the children who came over. Seeing that there weren't many left, he simply gave them all to Ye Xiaoxin.
He then went back to his room to keep Su Xinyi company.
Even when Hou Baolin and Wu Di came to invite Ye Beiping for drinks, he refused.
The three musketeers are helpless; tonight, they are destined to have a new member join them.
That's Ye Xiaoxin.
Hou Baolin and Wu Di saw Ye Xiaoxin leading a group of children playing with firecrackers, and they joined in for fun.
The three musketeers, along with a group of children from the village, kept causing trouble in Pingba Village.
They were either directing one child to blow up a clay pot, or directing another child to blow up cow dung nearby.
The most shameless thing was that they sent several children to someone's chicken coop to fry chickens, ducks, and geese.
What Hou Baolin didn't know was that Wu Di and Ye Xiaoxin, who were standing next to him, seemed to be quite close, walking together.
When they're having fun, Wu Di will sometimes hold Ye Xiaoxin's hand and run away.
Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night for the whole village.
The elderly drink at home, while the young go out to play wildly, without fear of being robbed or anything like that.
Even though everyone is resting during the Spring Festival, and even the children who shoot flowers also celebrate the New Year, these kids run around in the fields all the time.
Hou Baolin and Wu Di played until around 10 o'clock, then sent Ye Xiaoxin home. Afterwards, the two went back to prepare to have a good time with their fathers, getting them drunk as much as possible.
It wasn't until the early hours of the morning that Su Xinyi finally couldn't stay awake any longer and went to sleep with Ye Beiping by her side.
Keeping watch means staying up until midnight; once midnight is over, the day is considered to have passed.
Tao Qiuyan and Ye Xiaoxin naturally went back to their rooms to rest.
Early the next morning.
The whole village was lazy and unwilling to get out of bed, partly because of the cold weather and partly because there was nothing to do during the Spring Festival.
But some women still get up at six or seven o'clock to prepare breakfast.
Visiting relatives and friends on the first day of the Lunar New Year is not allowed.
Most of the time, the kids go to their grandparents' houses to freeload food, drinks, and red envelopes.
Su Xinyi woke up groggily around 7 a.m., heard some noise outside, and decided to get up as well.
Unexpectedly, Ye Beiping pulled her back into his arms.
"It's still early, I'll sleep a little longer." He was still very awake when he spoke.
Su Xinyi could naturally guess that Ye Beiping had probably already woken up, and helplessly pushed his chest, saying, "Mom and the others are all up, let's get up early."
"It's alright, there's no need to go out to pay New Year's visits on the first day of the Lunar New Year, you can sleep in a little longer." Ye Beiping smiled.
Helpless, Su Xinyi could only lie back down on the bed, her large, bright eyes gazing at the ceiling.
One minute...
Five minutes...
Ten minutes...
After a full half hour, Su Xinyi couldn't hold back any longer: "Are you up yet? If you're not up, I'm getting up by myself."
Helpless, Ye Beiping could only let go of Su Xinyi's hand, sensing her discomfort.
After getting dressed, he said to Su Xinyi, "Don't get up yet. Let me light a fire first, and you can get dressed once you're warm."
Su Xinyi gladly accepted Ye Beiping's meticulous care.
