Chapter 304 Eve of the Lunar New Year



Ye Yunxi chatted with Gu Qingqing and Zhang Jing for a while, and when it was time to leave work, she went home with them.

After leaving the hospital, Ye Yunxi drove Gu Qingqing and Zhang Jing home.

After dropping them off downstairs and saying goodbye, Ye Yunxi drove home.

When they got home, Fu Heng and the others were already there.

Ye Yunxi said with a smile, "You're back so early today."

Fu Heng raised an eyebrow at her, sensing that she was in a good mood today.

"Hmm, where did you go? You seem so happy."

“I went to chat with Qingqing and Ajing. There are only two weeks left until the New Year, and we were discussing how to celebrate this year. I told them to come to our house so that everyone can celebrate together and make it more lively.”

"Okay, it's up to you."

Ye Yunxi sighed and said, "Ah! I wish we could see fireworks this Chinese New Year. It's been years since we've seen any. I wonder if the base will even have fireworks this year."

Xuan Yu chimed in, "The base probably doesn't have any fireworks anymore, otherwise they would have been setting them off for Chinese New Year for the past few years."

Minyu thought for a moment and said, "The base doesn't have them, but we can make them ourselves! Boss, what do you say?"

Fu Heng nodded.

Ye Yunxi asked in surprise, "You can even make fireworks?"

"Sure, that's easy. If you want the base to set off fireworks, I'll talk to Captain Li tomorrow and we'll make a lot to try and finish before the New Year."

Ye Yunxi said excitedly, "Great! That way, we'll have a real festive atmosphere this year!"

Fu Heng gently patted Ye Yunxi's head and said softly.

"As long as you're happy, that's all that matters. Fireworks are simple; you can see them during the New Year."

"Okay. What should we eat tonight?"

"Anything is fine."

Ye Yunxi took out braised beef brisket with potatoes, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, minced meat and green beans, braised pork ribs with radish, and water spinach with minced garlic from her space.

They gave Yunzi and Tangtang some food before they sat down to eat.

After finishing their meal, they quickly washed up and went back to their rooms to rest.

The next day, Minyu and the others went to work at the research center and told Li Yan and Old He about their plan to make fireworks, which they strongly supported.

When Wu Jiji heard that Fu Heng and his team were going to make fireworks, he was very happy and even asked Zhou Yuan to provide them with materials.

Let Fu Heng and the others do more so that the base can have a good New Year this year.

After all, many people have died in recent years, and everyone has been living in fear and trembling. Now that life is finally getting better, of course we have to make the people at the base happy.

With permission, Fu Heng and his group began producing fireworks in large quantities, and Zhang Haiyi also came to help.

Old He even asked everyone to stop what they were doing and make a large quantity of fireworks for the base, with the surplus to be sold.

Half a month passed quickly, and the day after tomorrow is Lunar New Year's Eve.

Early this morning, Ye Yunxi got up, had a simple breakfast, and then took out a lot of New Year decorations from her space.

Gu Qingqing and Zhang Jing are coming over later to help decorate the house.

Today is Fu Heng and his team's last day of work. They are still making fireworks for the base. They can rest tomorrow and have a three-day break.

However, fireworks are already being sold in the market now, mostly sparklers. There are also firecrackers, fireworks, and so on.

Soon, Gu Qingqing and Zhang Jing arrived, followed by Chen Zhe.

They greeted Ye Yunxi with smiles.

"Good morning, Sister Yunxi!"

Ye Yunxi smiled and said, "Good morning, have you had breakfast yet?"

"I've already eaten."

"Let's get started then. When you go back later, take some decorations with you so you can decorate your home nicely."

"Okay, thank you, Sister Yunxi."

"It's nothing, let's get started. Ah Zhe, you hang this string of beads along the window."

Ah Jing, these decals are yours. You can put some on the windows and doors.

"Qingqing, here's a decoration for you. See where you think it's suitable to put it."

"Okay, leave it to us."

Ye Yunxi smiled, picked up the other decorations, and started decorating her home as well.

Yunzi and Tangtang ran around and helped Ye Yunxi and the others with their tasks, often carrying things for them.

They also put up couplets at the door and hung red lanterns on the door.

There are also money trees, decorative saplings symbolizing good fortune, and so on.

The upstairs area was also decorated, making the house look festive and bright.

After being busy for a while, it was almost lunchtime, so Ye Yunxi took the food out of the refrigerator. She heated it up in the kitchen and put it on the table.

She had put this in the refrigerator before Gu Qingqing and the others arrived.

She greeted Gu Qingqing and the others. "Qingqing, Ajing, Azhe, let's eat first. We'll finish what we've started later."

"Okay, coming."

Gu Qingqing and the others went straight to the dining table and sat down to eat with Ye Yunxi.

The group ate and chatted at the dinner table.

Gu Qingqing said, "Sister Yunxi, I heard the base is selling New Year's items now, do you want to go check it out together?"

Ye Yunxi knew that the base had started selling New Year's goods, but they didn't know exactly what was being sold.

Maybe I should go and see if there's anything I like.

"Okay, then we'll go take a look later."

"Okay! I'll eat quickly, and after I finish eating, I'll finish the last bit of cooking, and then we'll go take a look together."

Zhang Jing chimed in, "I was just thinking of going to take a look and see if there's anything I'd like to buy."

Chen Zhe looked at Zhang Jing and said, "Jing, if you see anything you like later, just buy it. We don't need to be frugal during the New Year."

"Okay, let's go take a look first."

Ye Yunxi and Gu Qingqing watched them with smiles.

Soon, the group finished their meal and began doing the last bit of work.

The decorations were all finished half an hour later.

Looking at the home they had decorated, Ye Yunxi felt a warm glow in her heart.

She just loves to decorate her home beautifully during holidays.

Looking at the fruits of her labor, Gu Qingqing smiled and joked.

"This room looks a bit like a bridal chamber! Sister Yunxi, you wouldn't be thinking of proposing to Brother Heng, would you?"

Zhang Jing gently patted Gu Qingqing.

"Don't talk nonsense. Even if it's a marriage proposal, it should be Heng asking Yunxi for help!"

Chen Zhe said with a grin, "Exactly, there's no reason for a girl to propose."

Ye Yunxi was stunned for a moment when she heard what Gu Qingqing said.

Propose? It's not impossible, but she doesn't want to get married so soon. There's still the natural disaster coming up, and she wants to wait until it's over before considering it.

Zhang Jing teased Gu Qingqing, "Qingqing, could it be that you want Haiyi to propose to you?"

Gu Qingqing seemed to have her secret exposed by Zhang Jing, and suddenly fell silent.

Seeing this, the group noticed that Gu Qingqing had become silent.

Zhang Jing realized she had said the wrong thing and immediately apologized to Gu Qingqing.

"Qingqing, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."

Chen Zhe and Ye Yunxi quickly chimed in.

"Yes, Qingqing, Ajing didn't do it on purpose, it was unintentional."
