This scene was so heartwarming and beautiful that Yu Yao couldn't resist capturing it with her camera.
"Ah Yao, I've brought the things." Lu Ze ran over carrying a cardboard box.
"Sister-in-law Meihua, Sister-in-law Sunyu and the others are over there. Let's go find them."
When Lei Xiaojun and Yin Susu's son, Xiao Shitou, saw the firecrackers and fireworks in Yu Yao's cardboard box, they couldn't move and stared at Yu Yao with their big, grape-like eyes.
"Aunt Yu Yao, you have so many firecrackers!"
Yu Yao rummaged through the box and took out a box of firecrackers and five string rods for each of the two little ones. "These are safe. You can play with them, but don't point them at people. We'll set off the rest for you."
Lei Xiaojun and Xiao Shitou nodded obediently, "Thank you, Aunt Yu."
Didi Jin'er is a very safe incense-like firework. After lighting it, it can be flicked like a short whip. It is cheap, and Yu Yao bought two bundles. Everyone who sees it gets one.
These kinds of fireworks are more fun when there are lots of people around.
The Spring Festival in later generations has long lost its festive atmosphere, and many places have even banned the setting off of fireworks and firecrackers. Yu Yao only set them off when she was a child.
Looking at Didi Jin'er, who's sparkling with fire, he's as happy as a little kid.
Because she gave the children massages, the children all liked this auntie very much and would chatter around her.
A dozen or so dripping wires were lit together, scattering sparks in all directions—a truly spectacular sight.
The children sang as they swung their toy sticks, "Toy stick, sparks flying, the police are coming to catch the chicks..."
Seeing Yu Yao playing so well with the children, Sun Yu and Ge Jinhua couldn't help but smile and say, "Yu Yao has such a great personality; she's become the queen of the kids so quickly."
Yin Susu and Su Meihua nodded in agreement: "Yu Yao is so popular with children, she'll definitely be a good mother in the future."
Upon hearing his sisters-in-law's words, Lu Ze couldn't help but speculate.
What is his and Ayao's child like?
The usually aloof and serious Commander Lu would smile whenever he thought of a girl who looked like A Yao.
Sun Yu and the others were initially a little embarrassed, but seeing Yu Yao having so much fun, they couldn't help but say, "Seeing how much fun Yu Yao is having, I'm itching to join in too. Let's go play too."
Besides the "Didijin'er" (a type of firework), Yu Yao also bought a lot of fireworks, including little bees, ground squirrels, and flying saucers...
Her favorite is a dish called "Peacock Spreading its Tail".
The semi-circular paper clip is printed with a peacock pattern. When lit, sparks first shoot out from the central hole, then from the sides, and finally from all five holes together.
The crackling sparks reached a full meter high, truly resembling a peacock spreading its tail feathers—it was incredibly beautiful.
Lu Ze's heart pounded uncontrollably as he followed his lover with his camera, capturing one smiling face after another.
Some were smiling, some were laughing, and some were making funny faces.
She's in every single one of them.
After setting off the fireworks, Yu Yao still had two sticks left. She and Lu Ze each lit one.
"Happy New Year, Lu Ze!" Yu Yao smiled brightly at Lu Ze.
Lu Ze looked down at his lover, "A Yao, Happy New Year!"
Bright fireworks illuminated Yu Yao's radiant face.
At that moment, the fireworks were beautiful, and the people were even more beautiful. The image was etched in Lu Ze's heart and could never be erased.
