December has arrived in the blink of an eye. Winter in Dongguan is not cold, but this year there has been a lot of rain. The drizzle has lasted for more than half a month, making the air humid and clothes unable to dry.
This year, Yu Qiuying's family doesn't plan to go back to their hometown for the Spring Festival, but Yu Zhigang's family definitely will. After all, there are two elderly people in the family, and they can't let them spend the Spring Festival alone at home.
Yu Qiuying kept her word and, after the holiday, gave Yu Zhigang and the others a bonus of five hundred yuan each.
Zhou Cailian and Zhou Jiahong also received one thousand each.
On the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month, Yu Qiuying and Zhou Cailian drove Yu Zhigang and the others to the train station.
Zhou Cailian drives a second-hand car, which Yu Qiuying also bought for over ten thousand yuan.
Although it's a used car, the original owner didn't drive it for very long. The owner was a male customer who often ate at the restaurant. He made some money doing business here, but he was soon taken to gambling and lost all his money. His factory went bankrupt, so he sold the car and went back to his hometown.
Yu Qiuying got lucky.
Zhou Cailian's driving skills have improved a lot recently, and she is not worried when driving slowly. Yu Qingxiu, Yu Qinghe, Yu Qingmiao, and Zhou Xiaofen rode in Zhou Cailian's car, chattering about a TV series that had just aired.
Around October, Yu Qiuying bought a color TV and put it in the shop. After closing up shop in the evening, the group would watch TV for a while.
Yu Qinghe and the others were very satisfied with this job. It was free, paid well, had good food and accommodation, and most importantly, the whole family was together, which made them feel very happy.
Believe it or not, the girls have changed quite a bit over the past year. They've all become fairer and gained weight. Yu Qinghe and Yu Qingmiao have even grown taller.
Before coming to Dongguan, Zhou Xiaofen was even more shy and introverted than Zhou Cailian was before, but now she is much more cheerful.
Having broadened my horizons, my mindset has changed somewhat. I've shed my rustic ways and become more confident.
After seeing Yu Zhigang and the others off, Yu Qiuying rushed to buy furniture and other items before the Lunar New Year and arranged everything.
The house was actually renovated a long time ago, but we hadn't moved in yet because we needed to air it out.
I must say, the air here is quite fresh, the environment is tranquil, and it's very comfortable to live here.
Yu Qiuying and her family spent the Spring Festival here.
There are three rooms. Yu Qiuying and Zhou Cailian each have one room, while Zhou Jiadong and Zhou Jiahong share a room.
The beds were all large 1.8-meter Simmons beds, which Zhou Jiahong adored. He was so happy that he rolled around on them for a while.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, when visiting the Qin family to offer New Year's greetings, Jiang Shuhe wanted to give red envelopes to Zhou Cailian and the other two.
Zhou Cailian was too embarrassed to accept it. "Aunt Jiang, I'm all grown up now, I don't need a red envelope."
The Lunar New Year is already on the 27th.
I'm twenty-seven already. Time flies...
Zhou Jiadong was too embarrassed to accept.
Zhou Jiahong happily accepted it, saying, "Thank you, Aunt Jiang."
Jiang Shuhe forcefully stuffed red envelopes into Zhou Cailian and Zhou Jiadong's hands, saying, "You two take them too, may you have peace and safety every year."
Zhou Cailian and Zhou Jiadong had no choice but to accept it.
Unexpectedly, when they returned, Qin Yang gave Zhou Cailian another red envelope, saying, "Happy New Year, and may you have peace and safety every year."
Zhou Cailian took the red envelope, lowered her head, and whispered, "Do my younger brother and the others all have one, or..."
Qin Yang's lips curled slightly, his voice tinged with amusement, "Only for you."
