Zhan Nanqi also wore new clothes, a red plaid jacket.
He and Xue Jiayu standing together looked like the prince and princess in a fairy tale, and even Zhan Aoxiang was amazed when they walked down the stairs.
"Whose fairy tale book was not closed? How come two elves came to my house?"
Zhan Nanqi simply ignored his dry humor, and Xue Jiayu forced a smile, "Hahaha...Uncle Xue, I'll take Brother Nanqi to my house to set off fireworks!"
"Okay, go ahead."
Zhan Aoxiang wished that Zhan Nanqi could go out and play with his friends more often.
On the way, they also called Gu Yuan, who was gnawing on a pig's trotter with great pleasure.
Xu Huimei saw that each of them had a big red envelope stuffed into her pocket. "This is the New Year's money that Auntie gave you. Keep it well."
There was a tiger painted on the red envelope, which was very cute. Xue Jiayu held the red envelope and wished Xu Huimei a happy new year. Seeing that Zhan Nanqi did not follow her movements, she patted Zhan Nanqi on the back.
"Brother Nanqi, hurry up and wish Aunt Xu a happy new year! Say Happy New Year with me."
"Happy New Year."
Zhan Nanqi repeated her words mechanically, but Xu Huimei was already very happy.
"Good boy, Gu Yuan, stop eating and go play with them."
"No, I want another one!"
Gu Yuan stuffed pig's trotters and drinks into his mouth. Usually, Xu Huimei had reduced the frequency of eating pig's trotters to once a week in order to control his weight. Gu Yuan, who loved meat, had to take this opportunity to eat his fill!
Xu Huimei, who had just spoken softly to Xue Jiayu and Nan Qi, showed a fierce expression, "Gu Yuan, look at your weight before you eat! Or do you want to eat only vegetables in the first month of the year?"
Gu Yuan immediately dropped the pig's trotter, swallowed the meat in his mouth, and wiped his mouth reluctantly.
"I know! I'll go!"
Gu Yuan put on a scarf and gloves and went out with them.
Lanterns and wedding characters are hung everywhere in the community. When passing by the security booth, Xue Jiayu will take the initiative to say "Happy New Year" to the security guard.
The security guard was holding an iron box filled with dumplings brought from home and was stunned when he heard the blessing.
"Happy New Year."
He didn't expect that someone would say Happy New Year to him, and the resentment of being on duty on New Year's Eve immediately disappeared.
It wasn't long before they were home.
Xue Wangjun had already brought out the fireworks and was waiting for them with Ying Huanyu.
"dad--!"
Xue Jiayu's clear voice made Xue Wangjun very happy, "Dad is here, should we release it now?"
"kindness!"
Xue Wangjun opened the box of fireworks and sighed: "Nowadays, fireworks are getting more and more beautiful. When I was a child, I only had firecrackers to play with."
"Dad, what are firecrackers?" Xue Jiayu asked.
Xue Wangjun showed her the size and said, "It burns very quickly and smells bad. There aren't as many styles as there are now, but my dad loved playing with it when he was a kid."
"oh……"
Xue Wangjun took out a lighter and was about to light the fire, but quickly asked the children to step back.
“Don’t burn yourself, stand under the eaves quickly.
Gu Yuan valued his life the most and was the first to run into the house.
Ying Huanyu wanted to hold Xue Jiayu's hand, but found that Xue Jiayu was holding Zhan Nanqi. She kept it in mind and took two steps back to distance herself from them.
"Xiaoyu, come here."
Xue Jiayu reached out to Ying Huanyu, but was ignored by Ying Huanyu.
"No, I'll stand here and watch."
"All right."
Xue Jiayu didn't suspect anything, and when Ying Huanyu wanted to get angry again, Xue Wangjun had already lit the fireworks.
The fireworks emitted a brilliant light the moment they went up into the sky, and Xue Jiayu stared at them intently.
The fireworks technology at that time was already very mature. Once in the sky, the fireworks scattered and turned into the four words "Happy New Year".
Gu Yuan opened his mouth wide, "You can also change words? That's amazing!"
"Of course! My dad bought this for me."
Xue Jiayu's words made Xue Wangjun very proud, and he immediately lit the second firework.
The second firework turned into the shape of a dragon after it went up into the sky, leaving Gu Yuan and Ying Huanyu stunned.
Xue Jiayu had seen a lot, but none of them were as stunning as the one just now, and Zhan Nanqi... was simply not interested in these things.
He put his hands in his pockets and looked up at the sky.
Although he is young, his facial features are already very profound. When Xue Jiayu looks at him from the side, she can only see his high nose bridge.
"Brother Nanqi, don't you like fireworks?"
Zhan Nanqi looked back at her, his face flashing with various colors under the illumination of the fireworks, but he was still as beautiful as ever.
“I don’t dislike it.”
"Then why don't you have any expression?"
Xue Jiayu pouted, "I thought you were unhappy."
"No."
"Then smile!"
Zhan Nanqi pulled the corners of his mouth, and Xue Jiayu couldn't help laughing when she saw him trying hard to mobilize his facial muscles.
Although Ying Huanyu was staring at the fireworks in the sky, his mind was on Zhan Nanqi and Xue Jiayu.
She pricked up her ears to listen to what they were saying, but the sound of their conversation was drowned out by the sound of the fireworks and she couldn't hear a word.
"What are you laughing at?" Zhan Nanqi frowned slightly.
"Nothing, Brother Nanqi, Happy New Year!"
When Xue Jiayu lowered her head and smiled, a small dimple appeared on her lips, which made Zhan Nanqi's heart soften.
"Happy New Year."
"Brother Nanqi, I have a New Year's wish and I want you to help me realize it."
Zhan Nanqi nodded and said, "Speak."
"I hope your autism can be cured. I know you can be cured, but you just don't want to."
Aunt Jiang has been driven away, and most of the causes of Zhan Nanqi's illness have been solved. If he still doesn't get better, it can only be that Zhan Nanqi himself doesn't want to get better.
Xue Jiayu didn't say it explicitly, but Zhan Nanqi understood.
"Brother Nanqi, you will make my wish come true, right?" Xue Jiayu looked at him with starry eyes.
kindness.
Zhan Nanqi agreed with her in his heart.
Even though Zhan Nanqi didn't respond verbally, Xue Jiayu was not disappointed. She believed that Zhan Nanqi would get better.
After the last firework was set off, they all felt a little lost.
Ying Huanyu still felt like she hadn't seen enough, "Dad, are there any more fireworks?"
"No, these cost me thousands of dollars."
Xue Wangjun didn't expect the fireworks to go off so quickly. The damn fireworks seller even told him that he could have fun for two hours!
He looked at Xue Jiayu guiltily: "Xiaobao, if you still want to read it, Dad will buy it tomorrow."
"Let's talk about it tomorrow. I saw a lot today!"
Xue Jiayu skipped up the stairs and said, "It's so cold, let's go in quickly."
As soon as you enter the door, you can smell the strong aroma of wine.
Jiang Qiuyu and Jiang Peirong brought out a few bowls of rice dumplings made with fermented glutinous rice from the kitchen and invited the children to eat.
"Eat it while it's hot. Eating dumplings is the only way to celebrate the New Year and reunite as a family."
Jiang Peirong felt much better after she had finished pouring out her grievances to Jiang Qiuyu. At this moment, she felt very emotional looking at Zhan Nanqi.
As long as their family is still together, she doesn't care what others say.
Nanqi will get better and better, and they will get better and better too.
