On New Year's Eve, the Ling family slaughtered chickens and sheep to celebrate the festival.
Chi Xingyue got up early in the morning and helped with the work.
Posting couplets, giving out red envelopes, very busy.
When he had some free time, he went to the side room to tinker with it, took out the apples hidden in the space, and distributed them to everyone.
The fruit trees planted outside the yard have produced a lot of fruit this year.
In addition to daily food, Chi Xingyue also stocked up on some long-lasting foods to serve as snacks for the winter.
In addition, she also cultivated some strawberry seedlings, which she planted from seeds and finally bore fruit from spring to winter.
Chi Xingyue picked all the fruits and mixed some from the space into the basket. A basket of fresh and tender strawberries looked very tempting.
No one suspected where this thing came from, because Ling Jiheng went to the county and bought a lot of strange seeds.
They planted them all, but the germination rate was low, and those that barely grew hardly bore fruit.
Strawberries are the "chosen" variety among them.
The Ling family witnessed its growth firsthand and were even happy for Chi Xingyue's harvest.
In order to clear the tail, the two even output the strawberry seeds in reverse.
The grocery store owner bought a lot of goose from Ling Jiheng and sold them outside. He didn't know whether the lucky geese he bought had grown any seedlings.
Although there were two fewer people celebrating the festival this year, the atmosphere was no less deserted than in previous years.
The Ling family mansion was decorated with lights and there was an atmosphere of joy everywhere.
Little baby Shu Kang shook his little body and followed his brother, looking at the pastries on the table and drooling with greed.
The old lady laughed heartily and said, "Look at our Xiao Kangkang, he is young but of a high generation.
Mingyue, Minghao, Weiwei and the others all have to call me uncle."
Ge Jinglan didn't dare to respond and quickly said, "The children are young, they can call me whatever they want, we are on our own."
The old lady glared at Ge Jinglan and said, "That's not acceptable. The rules passed down by our ancestors cannot be broken."
Ge Jinglan smiled and didn't respond.
In the evening, the family gathered at Rongsiyuan for dinner, with ten dishes and one soup, both very generous portions.
After dinner, the old lady played poker with the younger generations, while Ling Yi and others prepared a big fire in the yard.
Stack the pine branches prepared in advance together and form them into the shape of a small mound.
Light it at dawn, which means prosperity in the coming year.
Chi Xingyue glanced at it out of the corner of his eye and then paid no more attention.
He had four identical cards in his hand and threw them on the table: "Bomb!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Ling Jiheng stuffed a strawberry into her mouth.
Bright red and super sweet.
Chi Xingyue showed a flattering smile: "Thank you, my husband!"
Ling Jiheng said "hmm", with an ambiguous smile in his eyes.
The others were not surprised and continued playing cards. However, their luck was not as good as Chi Xingyue's, and she won a large handful of peanuts.
Chi Xingyue had enough fun and gave up his seat to Shu Muyun.
After cracking some melon seeds, I felt sleepy. But I still had to stay up to celebrate the New Year.
This went on until the early morning, when crackling sounds were heard in the village.
Her sleepiness was instantly awakened, and Chi Xingyue shuddered.
He stood up and said auspicious words to the old lady and the elders, then yawned and returned to Qingfeng Courtyard.
The moment he sat on the kang, Chi Xingyue felt relaxed all over and wanted to fall asleep as soon as he touched the pillow.
Unfortunately, I haven’t washed up yet, so I can only enter the space.
When she came out of the bathroom, she found Ling Jiheng a little nervous and uneasy.
Not understanding what he was thinking, Chi Xingyue dried her hair and went to the office to rest.
Unexpectedly, Ling Jiheng came out in less than ten minutes.
He was wearing a pair of loose shorts and there were water droplets winding down his body.
Chi Xingyue yawned and asked him to wipe himself dry before going to sleep.
Unexpectedly, Ling Jiheng sat next to her, his eyes deep but he said nothing.
That look made Chi Xingyue feel uneasy.
The voice was a little erratic: "Why don't you sleep?"
Ling Jiheng lowered his head and put his lips close to her ear: "Madam, today is the first day of the Lunar New Year."
Chi Xingyue didn't understand what he meant.
"Madam will be eighteen after the New Year."
Chi Xingyue opened his eyes wide and lost all sleepiness again.
"That's not right. I think I won't be eighteen until March..."
The second half of the sentence was snatched away by a burning kiss.
Ling Jiheng was particularly enthusiastic tonight, and before they knew it, they were being frank with each other.
Chi Xingyue wanted to stop him, but her arms were weak. She pushed him several times, but Ling Jiheng didn't move at all.
Finally, she gave up.
Anyway, it’s not that long now. It’s quite cruel to let someone stay single after being married for three years.
The most important thing is that she is also human.
God knows how she could endure it in her dreams when she had such a handsome husband but didn't use him.
But she is still young and doesn't want to get pregnant.
Just when I was about to remind Ling Jiheng, I saw him take out a small umbrella from under the pillow.
Chi Xingyue widened her eyes in shock, and noticed Ling Jiheng smiling triumphantly.
After that, there were two hours of drifting.
Chi Xingyue felt like she was about to fall apart.
Isn’t it said that men without experience can only last a short time?
Why is her family an exception?
Could it be that I fed him too much spiritual spring water?
Chi Xingyue didn't want to think about it anymore. She was so sleepy that she could hardly open her eyelids.
Ling Jiheng cleaned her body and leaned over to linger on her lips for a moment.
He didn't know what was said in her ear. Chi Xingyue was in a fuzzy state of consciousness. He threw the person out of the space and continued to sleep.
Ling Jiheng, who was only wearing a pair of shorts, was irritated by the cold air in the west room and got goose bumps all over his body.
Lying on the kang, I couldn't help but chuckle when thinking about the experience of that night.
Listening to the rustling noise outside, I put on my clothes, threw off the quilt and got out of bed.
Then he locked the door and went to Rongsiyuan in high spirits.
The moment the fire was lit, his eyes and brows softened.
Everyone could sense that he was in a good mood, but no one knew why.
It was not until dawn that someone noticed the small spot on Chi Xingyue's neck and glared at Ling Jiheng ambiguously, asking him to be more careful.
What could Chi Xingyue do? As a young wife, she could only turn a blind eye and turn a deaf ear.
After all, the spiritual spring water only washed away her inner fatigue and had no effect on the marks on her body.
Instead, it makes them more colorful.
Fortunately, we unlocked the Nanshan Village Shopping Mall, which has many big-name cosmetics.
Chi Xingyue applied a thin layer of concealer, and the marks were barely visible.
But there was still a fish that slipped through the net and was discovered by the sharp-eyed Shu Muyun.
Listening to her mother-in-law and grandmother talking about herself, she felt desperate too.
But the soul from the 21st century could not admit defeat. Chi Xingyue smiled calmly and felt that his skin was thicker than the corner of the city wall.
After breakfast, it is the happy time to greet the new year and give out red envelopes.
The old lady gave red envelopes to the younger generations one by one, and also specially prepared a small gold bracelet for Shu Kang as a birthday gift.
Shu Kang stumbled and prostrated himself before the old lady, making her burst into laughter. He also showed his four tiny teeth: "Hehe!"
