On New Year's Eve, the family compound was exceptionally lively.
Every household prepared a variety of delicious foods.
A few days ago, Aunt Qian and Aunt Liu made a lot of meatballs, and Jiang Yue specially gave some to the sisters-in-law in the compound with whom she had a good relationship.
Tang Zhaodi, Lin Ling, and the others also made local specialties from their hometown and gave them to Jiang Yue and the others.
Half of the dishes on the large table were hometown delicacies sent by various families.
During dinner, Grandpa Lu and Grandpa Jiang chatted for a while, and then everyone started eating.
Jiang Yue sat in a chair with a bowl piled high with food, all of which Lu Yu had served to her.
"Wife, eat more."
Lu Yu said with a smile.
Hearing Lu Yu's words, Jiang Yue smiled and nodded.
After dinner, and after helping tidy up the living room, Lu Yu led Jiang Yue out of the room and into the yard.
Lu Yu specially bought some fireworks and firecrackers, knowing that his wife loved watching them the most.
"daughter in law."
Jiang Yue looked at Lu Yu with a puzzled expression.
"Look over there."
Lu Yu pointed ahead.
Jiang Yue looked over, but there was nothing there.
"Bang!"
Fireworks soared into the sky, bursting open one after another. Watching the dazzling fireworks, Jiang Yue's eyes were filled with surprise.
The sound of fireworks attracted the attention of many people, and everyone came out of their homes.
A lot of people gathered around.
The fireworks display lasted for more than ten minutes, and included both large and small fireworks.
"Wife, do you like it?"
Jiang Yue nodded.
"I really like it."
"Actually, I originally wanted to set off fireworks for more than an hour, but that wouldn't be good for the environment. Next year, when we go back to Beijing for the New Year, I'll let you see an even grander fireworks display."
Lu Yu said with a smile.
"good."
Jiang Yue nodded with a smile.
Lu Yu led Jiang Yue into the house.
Right now, Sanbao and the others have been sent to the neighbor's house, so it's just the two of them at home.
Although Lu Yu and Jiang Yue returned to their room, the onlookers were still somewhat reluctant to leave.
"Were those fireworks set off at Deputy Regiment Commander Lu's house?"
"I heard that one of these fireworks costs several yuan."
"These fireworks are really beautiful."
"These fireworks lasted for more than ten minutes, and they must have cost over a hundred yuan."
"I never expected to see such beautiful fireworks today."
Qin Xiang stood at the door of her house, looking not far away, with Kong Zhen, Zhang Yu, Old Lady Feng and others beside her.
Grandma Feng and Zhang Yu were naturally making sarcastic remarks.
"This is such a waste of money. That's several months' salary."
"Their actions are those of capitalists."
"A few years ago, this would have been grounds for public criticism and denunciation by the division..."
Hearing what everyone was saying, Qin Xiang's face grew even uglier.
To make Jiang Yue happy, Lu Yu actually spent several months' salary to buy so many fireworks to set off.
How could she not be jealous?
She married Zhu Guoqiang, who is currently only a battalion commander, while Lu Yu is already a deputy regimental commander.
She had met Lu Yu twice when she was in high school.
One time, she met Lu Yu and Jiang Shan with Jiang Yue. They were wearing military uniforms at the time. Although she didn't know their ranks, their imposing presence made them unforgettable.
Later, she tried every means to find out Lu Yu's identity information from Jiang Yue.
But Jiang Yue said it was her neighbor's older brother whom she grew up with.
They even said that her family wanted her to marry Lu Yu. At that moment, she became even more jealous.
So he tried every possible way to tell Jiang Yue that the marriage was not good and that Jiang Yue should pursue her own life and not be manipulated by others.
