Chapter 154 Epilogue
Zhou Yan snorted without changing his expression.
Lin Xu took a few photos with his mobile phone as souvenirs, including those of little Zhou.
The whole family gathered around a big round table for the New Year’s Eve dinner, enjoying themselves harmoniously.
Fireworks are not allowed in the city, but they are allowed in the countryside. There are fireworks everywhere, and some citizens even drive to the countryside specifically to set them off.
The younger brother of Zhou Yan's second uncle was about the same age as Lin Xu. The two of them were setting off fireworks the most enthusiastically. The children of his eldest brother were still young and did not dare to set off fireworks, so they just followed behind them, clapping and laughing.
"Sister-in-law, take this." The younger brother handed the lit hand-cranked flower to Lin Xu.
Lin Xu was stunned by this title.
Seeing that he didn't answer, the younger brother was a little embarrassed: "You - you don't like me calling you that? I'm sorry, I didn't know -"
Lin Xu quickly took the fireworks and said, "No, no, it's just that this is the first time I've heard someone call me that, and I'm a little confused. You can call me whatever you want, hehe."
The younger brother breathed a sigh of relief: "You scared me - then I'll call sister-in-law. These are all for you. When the one in your hand is almost burned, use a new one to ignite it, so that you can play two in a row."
"Oh, then I understand." Lin Xu held the burning fireworks in his left hand and a handful in his right hand.
Zhou Yan couldn't bear it any longer and walked over, holding Lin Xu's hand from behind: "It's called a hand-shaking flower, so you have to shake it to make it look good."
Zhou Yan held Lin Xu's hand and shook the fireworks in his hand. The originally ordinary fireworks burned more fully during the shaking, and the sparks became bigger, leaving colorful afterimages in the air.
"Come on, light the next one." Zhou Yan took all the fireworks from Lin Xu's hand with his other hand, leaving one for him to light.
Lin Xu ran and jumped in the yard with lit fireworks in both hands.
The younger brother followed him, and the two of them had a lot of fun, and the whole yard became lively.
When Zhou Yan had only one firework left in his hand, he lit it, held it in his own hand, and waved it in the air at Lin Xu.
Lin Xu stopped and looked.
Zhou Yan drew a heart in the sky with fireworks.
"Hey, I didn't see anything." The younger brother exclaimed with a smile, threw away the fireworks in his hand and ran into the house.
Only Lin Xu and Zhou Yan were left in the yard.
Lin Xu walked towards Zhou Yan step by step. When he reached in front of Zhou Yan, the fireworks in both of their hands had burned out.
The surroundings grew dark and quiet, with only fireworks exploding in the distant sky.
Zhou Yan opened his arms and Lin Xu rushed in with a smile.
"Xu Xu, it's great to have you."
"Hey, husband, happy new year. In the new year, I will love you more, and you have to love me more, and I wish our family peace and health!" Lin Xu made a new year wish in Zhou Yan's arms.
"Happy New Year! My wish is that all your wishes come true. Xuxu, I love you."
Zhou Yan lowered his head, kissed Lin Xu on the forehead, and hugged him to watch the fireworks in the distance.
The colorful fireworks were reflected in Lin Xu's curved eyes in Zhou Yan's arms.
The new year begins with new hope.

postscript.
The first branch in Xuguangli finally opened in the winter of the third year.
Zhou Yan and Lin Xu rented a piece of land in a newly developed tourist area near their grandmother's home and built a homestay.
The designer is of course Lin Xu.
The homestay is themed on Snow Town, but unlike other Snow Town homestays, it adopts the traditional decoration style of old Northeast China, abandoning elements such as large red and green flowers, and focusing on expressing the purity and romance of snow.
On the opening day, the restaurant was immediately full.
Fans who learned about this from their live broadcast room were naturally happy. It was one more place to travel and check in without having to worry about the accommodation experience, which saved them a lot of worry.
They brought Dongdong with them as well.
Dongdong is not afraid of the cold. It was the first time in his life that he saw the ground covered with snow and he rolled around excitedly.
Lin Xu also rolled on the ground and was pulled up by Zhou Yan by his clothes.
"You're almost 30, why are you still so naughty?" Zhou Yan said as he brushed the snow off his body.
Although he was scolding him, there was a smile on his face and his eyes were full of doting.
No matter how you look at it, Lin Xu doesn't look like a man who is almost 30 years old, either in appearance or in his mind.
The youthful spirit is still there, and Zhou Yan has always taken good care of his simple happiness.
Under Lin Xu's care, Zhou Yan seemed to have started to reverse his growth and looked in better shape than when he was in his twenties.
The staff at the B&B often ignore their age, and the cleaning lady in her forties often calls them children.
The first group of guests were almost all fans from the live broadcast room. They not only brought them specialties from their hometowns, but also small peripherals made for them.
There are everything from ornaments, pillows, to couple shirts.
Lin Xu thought they were cute, so he placed them all in the room upstairs.
They lived in Yunping Village for a longer time, only spending the winter in the Northeast. They did not buy a new house, but instead kept a room on the third floor for themselves.
After a busy whole day, Lin Xu was so tired that his waist almost broke. While Zhou Yan was cleaning up the mess, he took a shower and lay in bed waiting for Zhou Yan.
He threw the pillow given by fans on the bed. The prints on it were cartoon images of the two of them, which were quite vivid and cute.
When Zhou Yan went to bed, he picked up the pillow and looked at it for a while. He was quite satisfied and put it aside.
"What are you looking at?" Zhou Yan lifted the quilt, crawled in and pulled Lin Xu into his arms.
Lin Xu couldn't help laughing: "Haha, I'm looking at your childhood photos. Big sister found another one today and sent it to me, take a look."
Zhou Yan's eyes went dark when he saw the 'big meatball' in the photo.
How come this thing can't be resolved...
"You're not done yet. You're still so happy reading your husband's dark history?" Zhou Yan slapped Lin Xu, ready to punish this little guy.
"It's not really a dark history, is it? It's quite inspiring. From a meatball to a male god, who wouldn't admire him after watching it?"
Lin Xu threw his phone away and threw himself into Zhou Yan's arms.
"Okay, okay, I won't watch it anymore. Don't be angry."
Zhou Yan snorted helplessly: "You heartless little thing, am I really angry with you?"
It was cold outside and the north wind was howling.
The exterior walls of the homestay are well insulated, the air conditioning and heating are running, and the bed is warm.
As the saying goes, when you have enough food and clothing, you will think about that.
Lin Xu wrapped his arms around Zhou Yan's waist.
"Did you secretly eat something later? It was so tiny before."
Zhou Yan smiled at his hint: "A little bit?"
Lin Xu felt a burning sensation on his legs and his face followed suit: "So, let me ask you, what did you eat secretly?"
Zhou Yan turned over and covered himself with the quilt: "Come here, I'll tell you quietly."
Lin Xu's itchy spot was pinched, and the two of them made a mess under the quilt.
