As the overall environment improved, we bought fireworks for the family this year.
After the New Year's Eve dinner, Li Huai set off fireworks in the courtyard, and the whole family stood in the courtyard to watch.
The vibrant colors burst open in the dark night sky, creating a breathtaking spectacle.
Their fireworks attracted many people from the residential area to watch, and everyone felt it was lively and festive.
The little kid's personality is starting to show.
This child is quite easy to take care of. He only cries a little when he poops or peees or is hungry; otherwise, he's very well-behaved.
However, Zhao Qinglan always felt that Sanwa seemed a bit lazy, but she didn't know if it was just her imagination or if the child was still young.
It's quite remarkable that Sanwa could fall asleep inside despite the loud fireworks outside.
They made a small wooden cart. Their third child is too young to crawl around, so they can put him in the cart and the adults can do other things without having to watch him all the time.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, people pay New Year's visits, give out lucky money, and eat dumplings.
Even the baby who was only a few months old received New Year's money, but Zhao Qinglan kept it for the child first.
As for the three children, Zhao Qinglan didn't care; the children could keep their own money and spend it as they pleased.
The older children are another year older and have become more sensible.
When visiting relatives for the New Year, uncles and aunts always ask about academic performance.
Da Wa and Xiao Duo are not at all intimidated by this; since they entered school, they have consistently ranked in the top three in their class.
The children grew up to be better and better, obedient and with good grades, and everyone envied Zhao Qinglan.
However, some people think that this is Zhao Qinglan's achievement. After all, Zhao Qinglan is someone who was able to get into university through self-study, so she must be very good at teaching children.
Their family's New Year celebrations were getting better and better, but things weren't so great in other places.
In Beijing, Li Zhenhua spent the Spring Festival alone. His wife was in prison, and his youngest son had just joined the army and couldn't come home for the holiday. He felt incredibly lonely.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, he didn't stay at home but went directly to the grassroots level of the military to inspect and extend greetings.
Actually, Li Zhenhua visited his wife in prison once before the Chinese New Year.
However, after several months in prison, Yu Huimin not only failed to reflect on her problems, but was also full of complaints.
When she saw Li Zhenhua, all she could do was ask him to get her out of there as soon as possible, which greatly disappointed Li Zhenhua.
Having grown accustomed to the leisurely life of a high-ranking official's wife, every day in prison felt like an eternity to Huimin.
At this point, she had no time for scheming or plotting; all she wanted to do was get out.
However, Li Zhenhua would not grant his wish. In his view, it was only because he had pleaded so desperately that she had her sentence reduced, and he could not interfere or ask for anything more.
The Wang family, including Grandma Wang and her husband, spent a less-than-happy New Year with their grandson.
The family was struggling financially, and their New Year's Eve dinner was hardly any good. It was only thanks to their daughter, Wang Dahua, who secretly brought them some flour that they were able to have dumplings.
The elderly couple almost shed tears during the Lunar New Year, their hearts filled with worry for their missing son.
There's also Zhao Family Village.
The conflicts within the Zhao family are escalating day by day.
During the Chinese New Year, they started arguing about dividing the family property.
This family has indeed been divided.
As the eldest son in the family, Zhao Laoda naturally bore the heaviest responsibilities and obligations, and therefore received the most.
However, the person Old Lady Zhao dislikes the most now is her eldest son.
Under her cold-blooded ruthlessness, Zhao Laoda didn't even get a house in the end, only three months' worth of food and some belongings, which can be considered as being kicked out.
Old Mrs. Zhao favored her youngest son the most, giving him the most things. However, she knew that her youngest son was not very capable and had to live with her second son, which caused a lot of disputes.
This division of the family property was naturally unfair, but Zhao the eldest had long been disheartened with the family and didn't fight any further. He took his belongings and moved out of the house.
The village couldn't completely ignore him, so Zhao Laoda eventually moved into the village's courtyard where cattle were kept and tools were stored.
Because of the family division dispute, the Zhao family members did not gather together for the New Year's Eve dinner.
On New Year's Eve, Zhao Laoda ate salted vegetables and cornbread alone, looking at the kerosene lamp with a bitter expression, missing his wife and daughters who were nowhere to be found.
Sun and her two daughters stayed in the military family compound until the third day of the Lunar New Year, and then returned to the city on the fourth day.
During their stay in the family compound, Zhao Qingzhu and Zhao Qingju attracted the attention of some interested people.
They asked Wu Mei if either of the two girls was engaged.
If her son hadn't gone to university, Wu Mei really wanted to marry one of the two sisters off to her eldest son.
However, after the New Year, the child went to university, where he will be studying for almost four years.
She didn't think that just because her son got into university, Zhao Qingzhu and her sister were no longer a good match for him.
I just feel that almost four years is too long, and it's not good to delay a good girl from finding a husband.
When asked about the relationship between Wu Mei and Zhao Qinglan, Wu Mei naturally reconciled with her.
As her younger sisters grow older each year, Zhao Qinglan feels that they are still young and don't need to rush to find husbands, but she has to respect their wishes.
Before her sisters returned to the city, she brought up the topic openly.
Zhao Qingzhu's attitude was very frank.
"Sister, it's not that I don't want to find someone. If I meet the right person, I think we can give it a try."
Zhao Qinglan then looked at her younger sister.
Zhao Qingju smiled shyly. "Sister, I'm still young. I want to stay with Mom for a few more years. Let's worry about Second Sister's affairs first."
Since the second sister is no longer opposed to blind dates and finding a partner, she can also help recommend potential blind date partners.
