Chapter 71 Happy New Year, Kids
Jiang Wanying flatly refused, "No, I can't sing, and my dancing is uncoordinated. I'd rather not make a fool of myself."
In her opinion, the art troupe is similar to the entertainment industry. If she joins, she will have to practice basic skills hard. Every day, she will either practice dancing, singing and music, and participate in various performances. Not only that, she must always maintain a slim figure, and her every word and action will attract attention. She doesn't want to live that kind of life again.
If a person cannot even have the freedom to eat, how miserable his life would be.
Seeing how reluctant she was, Lu Yanchuan didn't force her. A bright and sunny girl like her probably loved freedom by nature and didn't like being bound by worldly views.
"Besides taking the college entrance exam, do you have any other plans?"
Jiang Wanying smiled slyly, "Guess."
Lu Yanchuan had no idea what she was thinking. It seemed that he was asking about her plans, but in fact he wanted to ask her if she wanted to get married. However, since he thought that she was hurt by Fang Jiaxing, he didn't dare to ask her directly.
"Whatever you want to do, I support you."
Seeing his sincere expression, Jiang Wanying's lips curled up even deeper. "Don't say such things anywhere else. If someone hears it, they might think you like me!"
At this time, Jiang Huaichuan ran out of the house holding firecrackers and saw Lu Yanchuan standing next to his sister.
He frowned slightly, "Why are you still here? Didn't my grandpa and the others leave a long time ago?"
Jiang Wanying said hurriedly, "He's leaving soon too. Isn't it almost time?"
She looked at the firecrackers in Jiang Huaichuan's hand and remembered the alleys in her hometown when she was a child. Every time the New Year came around, every household would set off firecrackers to celebrate.
Fireworks were set off back then, but nowadays, I guess you can only see them in bigger cities.
Jiang Huaichuan glanced down at the watch on his wrist, "Almost there, almost there, ten seconds left!"
He ran to the open space not far from the door, put the firecrackers on the ground, took out matches from his pocket, and prepared to light them.
"three--"
“O——”
"one!"
Jiang Wanying stood in front of the door and shouted the countdown. As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Huaichuan lit the fuse and quickly ran to Jiang Wanying's side.
"Bang—bang bang bang—"
The sound of firecrackers rang out, followed by similar sounds from all directions.
Jiang Wanying quickly covered her ears. In her previous life, firecrackers were prohibited for environmental reasons. She hadn't heard so many firecrackers in a long time.
Lu Yanchuan fought alongside her, looking at the happy expression on her face, and whispered, "Happy New Year, kid."
"Happy New Year!" Jiang Wanying smiled at him, then turned to Jiang Huaichuan and said, "Third brother, happy New Year! In this year, I hope I can drink at your wedding!"
"Go to hell—"
Jiang Huaichuan swallowed the rest of the words abruptly. After all, swearing was forbidden in this age. He forced a stiff smile, cupped his hands, and said sarcastically, "Thank you!"
Jiang Wanying never got tired of looking at the deflated expression on his face.
Lu Yanchuan's voice came to her ears again, but the sound of firecrackers was so loud that she didn't hear what he said at all. She let out an "ah" with a puzzled look on her face.
Lu Yanchuan leaned over and whispered into the little girl's ear, saying lovingly, "If you have anything in the future, you can write to me."
