Hello, hello.
Ma Zhaodi looked at Shi Nanxing and Si Huashang with shock in her eyes.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Ning's parents are so young.
It was only after meeting Si Huashang that Ma Zhaodi understood why Jiang Ning was so beautiful and confident.
"Hello, Uncle and Auntie." Ma Zhaodi greeted them.
Jiang Ning continued, "Mom and Dad, this is Xia Ying, whom you've met before, and this is Ma Zhaodi."
Si Huashang took Ma Zhaodi's hand and said, "So this is Xiao Si. Our Shengbao always talks about you. She said you are very outstanding, the top student in your city, a noble girl from a poor family. It's really rare!"
As she spoke, Si Huashang took out two more red envelopes from her bag and handed them to Xia Ying and Ma Zhaodi respectively. "The New Year is just around the corner. This is a little something from your uncle and aunt to you two. We wish you a happy New Year and all the best."
The two immediately refused, saying, "Uncle and Aunt, we appreciate the sentiment, but we cannot accept the red envelope."
"Keep it," Shi Nanxing, who was usually quiet, chimed in. "I heard from my daughter that you two take very good care of her in daily life. This is a small token of our appreciation from your aunt and me."
It was after hearing from Jiang Ning that Shi Nanxing and Si Huashang heard that her two roommates were very nice kids that they prepared red envelopes.
Whether it's a lot of money or a little, it's all about the sentiment.
Si Huashang continued, "If you don't accept it, it means you think Auntie's red envelope is too small."
Hearing this, the two accepted the red envelope.
Xia greeted them, saying, "Then we wish Uncle and Aunt a Happy New Year, all the best, and good health."
"Okay, okay, thank you both."
After receiving the red envelopes, Jiang Ning continued, "Xia Ying, Xiao Si, this is my son, Chu Yi."
"Chu Yi, you're so awesome!" Xia Ying especially loves dogs, so she squatted down and patted Chu Yi's head.
"Woof woof woof!"
Hearing someone praise it, Chu Yi proudly raised its cute little head.
Ma Zhaodi exclaimed incredulously, "I've never seen such a big dog! It's like a little tiger, so adorable!"
Upon hearing this, Chu Yi became even more excited, his little tail wagging high.
After saying hello at the dormitory, Shi Nanxing and the driver took Jiang Ning and Ma Zhaodi's suitcases to the car.
Kyoto University is an hour away from the station.
After seeing Ma Zhaodi off at the station, the group set off to return home.
As soon as Jiang Ning returned, Grandma Shi handed her a bowl of noodles, saying, "Shengbao, are you hungry? Have some noodles."
Jiang Ning picked up the bowl, took a bite of noodles, and then her eyes lit up. "Did my grandfather make this?"
Grandma Shi laughed and said, "Shengbao, your grandpa really did love you! He gets up before dawn to fry chili oil and knead dough. I told him that we have a chef at home, and he could just tell the chef the method and steps, but he insisted that the chef's method was different from his."
Just then, Grandpa Jiang came out and said, "I knew it! Ningning loves my noodles the most. If you like them, eat more. There's still some left in the pot."
"Okay, Grandpa."

New Year's Eve.
This year was the most complete and reunion-filled New Year for the Shi family. Shi Nanxing was especially happy and gave all the servants in the family a ten-day holiday on the 27th of the lunar year.
Therefore, on New Year's Eve, Shi Nanxing and Si Huashang personally cooked the meal.
Jiang Ning, along with Grandma Shi and Grandpa Jiang, went to put up Spring Festival couplets and hang lanterns.
The Shi family manor is very large.
Now that everyone is on holiday, putting up Spring Festival couplets and hanging lanterns is no easy task.
The three generations of the family spent most of the day working, and there was still a third of the stickers left to be pasted.
Jiang Ning stood on the ladder and said, "Grandpa and Grandma, if you're tired, go and rest for a while. I can take care of things here."
Grandma Shi smiled and said, "I'm not tired at all."
She used to feel increasingly listless as she lived, but now she's full of energy and looks at least ten years younger.
Grandpa Jiang also said he wasn't tired.
After hanging the lanterns, Jiang Ning filmed a video and posted it in the group chat of their loving family.
Then it was sent to the Si family group chat.
Grandma Si was the first to respond to Jiang Ning: 【[Image.jpg] Shengbao, look! Do you like the way Grandma decorated your room?】
Although Jiang Ning was not spending the Lunar New Year in Hong Kong, Old Madam Si still had her bedroom decorated in a very festive manner.
Of course I like what Grandma arranged.
Then came the reply from Aunt Zhao Yunong, the eldest aunt of the Si family: 【[Image jpg] Shengbao, this is the New Year's gift I prepared for you. Come to Hong Kong to pick it up!】
Then came Aunt Sun Jiaqi: [Image jpg] Shengbao, I prepared one too!
Next came the third aunt, the fourth aunt, and so on.
Even her eight uncles showed off the gifts they had carefully prepared for Jiang Ning, not wanting to be outdone.

After the first day of the Lunar New Year, on the second day, Jiang Ning went to Hong Kong with her parents.
During the Spring Festival, many people travel, making airports very crowded and tickets hard to buy. Fortunately, the Shi family has their own private jet, and Shi Nanxing had already applied for the flight route in advance, so Jiang Ning brought Chuyi along as well.
Just as Jiang Ning was leading Chu Yi into the VIP passage, a voice suddenly rang out from behind them.
"Miss Shi?"
