Jun Zian heard the bitterness in Jun Ning's words and quickly said to her, "Don't worry about me. Come over when you are free. If you are not free, it doesn't matter if you come a few days later. I won't go to work until the eighth day of the Lunar New Year."

Jun Ning replied in a positive tone, "I will go back on the second day of the Chinese New Year. It's not easy to celebrate the New Year, so I will take this opportunity to have a good rest and accompany you."

Jun Zi'an laughed and said, "Okay, then we can have a good talk as father and daughter."

"Okay."

Jun Ning chatted with Jun Zi Anxian for a while before hanging up the phone.

In the blink of an eye, New Year's Eve is here.

Jun Ning and Fu Jingwei got up early in the morning, prepared breakfast, and asked the family to eat.

After breakfast, the two of them worked together to paste couplets, worship the gods of heaven and earth and their ancestors, and then began to prepare a sumptuous lunch.

Grandma Fu wanted to go in to help, but was pushed out by Jun Ning, "Grandma, you don't need to help. A Jing and I will be responsible for cooking today, and you just need to eat."

Grandma Fu laughed happily, "Okay, okay, then we'll go out and wait for the food."

Jun Ning smiled and replied, "That's how it should be!"

Today is New Year's Eve. Every household slaughters chickens and ducks to welcome the arrival of the Lunar New Year. I hope everyone will be healthy, have smooth sailing, good luck and everything goes well in the new year.

Jun Ning and Fu Jingwei hoped the same.

With the cooperation of the two of them, Jun Ning quickly made blanched prawns, crispy roast goose, steamed sausages, fried snow peas with bacon, steamed grouper, shredded chicken, beer duck, braised spare ribs, vegetable sprouts, and a pot of family stew.

When Mr. Fu, Mrs. Fu, Fu Mingli and Kong Xiuya saw Jun Ning making so many delicious dishes, they all praised her.

Grandma Fu looked at Aning and said with a smile: "Aning, thank you for your hard work!"

Mr. Fu also smiled and said, "Aning, your cooking skills are getting better and better. These dishes are really delicious and beautiful. I am drooling just by smelling them."

Even Kong Xiu Ya said from the bottom of her heart: "Aning is really amazing. I don't have such skills and can't make such a large table of dishes."

Jun Ning took out two more bottles of peach blossom wine and poured a glass for everyone. "Come, let's all drink a glass of peach blossom wine. I wish you all great success in the new year, success in your work and career, and safety and health for everyone."

Mr. Fu praised, "A Ning said it well, come on, let's have a drink together."

The whole family raised their glasses and said in unison: "Happy New Year! Good health! All the best!"

After the sumptuous lunch, everyone felt a little full, so Jun Ning brewed another pot of spiritual tea to help everyone digest the food.

In the afternoon, Jun Ning's communication watch began to receive messages from relatives and friends wishing her a happy New Year in advance.

Jun Ning also replied to their messages one by one.

After a short break at noon, at 3:30 in the afternoon, Jun Ning took Fu Jingwei to start preparing the New Year’s Eve dinner.

The New Year’s Eve dinner was even more sumptuous, with all the dishes made from space ingredients.

Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, steamed lobster, honey abalone, cod stewed with tofu, braised pigeon, stir-fried sea cucumber with ginger and scallion, braised venison with purple bamboo shoots, braised rabbit meat, plus a dish of stir-fried choy sum with garlic, and a pot of mushroom seafood soup.

After dinner, the family sat together to chat and stay up late, sending messages and making phone calls.

Jun Ning also sent a message to Jun Zi'an, "Dad, have you had the New Year's Eve dinner?"

Jun Zi'an smiled and said to her, "We just finished eating. Your second brother prepared the New Year's Eve dinner. It was very sumptuous. How about you? Have you eaten yet?"

Jun Ning smiled and replied, "We just ate, and we cooked a lot of dishes. The whole family ate a lot. I think I will gain a few pounds after this Chinese New Year."

After Jun Ning finished talking with Jun Zi'an, he talked with Jun Ziru, Jiang Xiuqing, the eldest brother, the second brother, and the third brother one by one before hanging up the phone.

After finally waiting until the New Year’s bell rang, the Junlin Group of Gangcheng and the Junlin Group of Egret Brigade lit fireworks and firecrackers to welcome the arrival of the new year.

Jun Ning and Fu Jingwei also set off fireworks at the gate of the Fu family's old house.

Nowadays, setting off firecrackers to welcome the New Year is common, but setting off fireworks is a rare thing.

Not to mention that what Jun Ning took out were all large and beautiful fireworks from later times. After they were lit and launched into the sky, they attracted countless people to watch.

"Wow, what beautiful fireworks!"

"Whose fireworks are these? They are so pretty!"

"Mom, mom, I want to set off fireworks too..."

The surrounding neighbors also rushed towards the Fu family.

Some half-grown children saw Jun Ning and Fu Jingwei setting off fireworks, and there were a lot of fireworks set off next to them. They crowded over and asked Fu Jingwei, "Brother Wei, can we help you set off some fireworks?"

Fu Jingwei was also very generous and took out some small fireworks for them. "Come on, these are for you to set off. Please pay attention to your own and others' safety. Set them off towards the sky and never set them off on other people, okay?"

The children laughed and responded in unison: "Brother Wei, we get it! We won't set off fireworks randomly!"

Fu Jingwei patiently taught them how to set off the firecrackers, and even gave each of them a lit incense stick to light the fuse.

When several people in a row set off fireworks together, it looks more spectacular, more beautiful and brilliant, and causes bursts of exclamations from the people around them.

"Wow, it's so beautiful!"

“It’s so beautiful!”

"I have never seen such beautiful fireworks, it is really beautiful!"

With the help of the children, it took Jun Ning and Fu Jingwei more than half an hour to set off the fireworks they brought home.

The people around were so excited that when the show was over, everyone was reluctant to let it go and really wanted them to continue.

After Jun Ning and Fu Jingwei said good night to their family, they entered their bedroom, locked the door, and went into the space villa to rest together.

During the entire Chinese New Year period, everyone greets each other, eats and drinks, and has fun to their heart's content.

It was the sixth day of the New Year. After having breakfast, Jun Ning and Fu Jingwei prepared to go back to her parents' home with their gifts to attend the meeting between their eldest brother and Zhou Siyu's two families.

When Jun Ning and Fu Jingwei returned to the Jun family at the machinery factory, the Zhou family had not arrived yet.

The Jun family has already prepared dried fruits and fruit plates to entertain the guests.

After Jun Ning and Fu Jingwei arrived, as usual, she and her second brother prepared food, while Fu Jingwei chatted about work with Jun Ziru and her eldest brother Jun Chengde.

At 10:30 in the morning, Zhou Siyu and her parents, as well as Zhou Zehai and his wife, came to visit, carrying large and small bags of gifts.

The Jun family also welcomed them in very warmly.

PS: I wish you all a happy Mid-Autumn Festival in advance! Good health! Happy family reunion! 　　 　 (End of this chapter)
