Chapter 246 Fired
Qiao Mo and the others nodded in agreement, and so the family lit the fireworks in order, watching the small fireballs fly into the air, then explode in the air, turning into gorgeous flowers, allowing people to show off their grace.
After setting off the fireworks, they played with fairy drums. The brothers and sisters played with the lit fairy drums in the yard and did not go back to their rooms to rest until almost one o'clock.
Nothing happened that night. The next morning, after eating glutinous rice balls, Qiao Mo followed Wu Weiqian and his brother to visit the neighbors. The Wu family had been away for a few days and had become quite estranged from their neighbors. They just sat at each house for a while, introduced Qiao Mo to the family, and had a cup of tea. In the morning, they visited all the neighbors who had contact with the Wu family, and in the afternoon they stayed at home chatting and eating melon seeds.
The second day of the Chinese New Year is the day to go back to one's parents' home. Bai Ge's parents are no longer around, and her two brothers have also gone to Kyoto. She has no close relatives in Donghai, so she stays at home and reads.
After Qiao Mo knew that they were not going out to pay their respects, he took gifts to pay their respects to Qiao Chengting: Qiao Chengting had a bad relationship with Qiao Chenglin and rarely interacted with his family, let alone going to pay their respects on the second day of the Chinese New Year.
"Auntie, the new hair is good."
"Hello, Momo, come in." Qiao Chengting didn't expect Qiao Mo to come at this time, so she quickly let her in.
"Cousin, happy new year." Seeing Qiao Mo coming, Yang Weihua and his sister stood up to greet her and took the things in her hands.
"Cousin, cousin, cousin, hello." Qiao Mo greeted the Yang brothers one by one.
"Cousin, have a cup of hot tea to warm yourself up." Yang Weihua poured her a cup of hot tea.
"Thank you, cousin." Qiao Mo took the teacup and took a sip. "Cousin, you didn't go out?"
"Everyone has been busy visiting relatives and friends these days, so we should take this opportunity to have a good rest for a few days." Yang Weihua knew what she meant.
"My cousin is right. The necessary supplies have been prepared beforehand. Now our task is to eat, drink and have fun." Qiao Mo nodded in agreement.
"Momo, do you know? Qiao Dong was fired from the steel mill." Qiao Chengting whispered as she sat beside her. "He dated several people but broke up with them. These days, he's been drinking and dreaming at home every day."
"What's going on?" Qiao Mo asked in surprise.
"I heard it was bribery and corruption. Fortunately, the amount was not large, otherwise, he would have been eating free jail food." Yang Weihua was better informed than Qiao Chengting.
"A newcomer actually dares to ask for and accept bribes. He's so bold." Qiao Mo snorted coldly.
"You're right. He lost a good job for a little bit of profit. Let's see what he'll do in the future." Qiao Chengting said regretfully. Her second brother risked his life to get that job. It was despicable that they snatched it away and didn't cherish it.
