He Tingchuan didn't rest once he got home.
Please help me put up the couplets.
Besides his own family, if the young people in other families in the compound hadn't returned, he would go and help put up couplets. Yun Jin would lend a hand, and Xiao Doubao would shiver in the cold wind, unwilling to go back and wait.
Mother He prepared the New Year's Eve dinner early and called He Ximei and the others to tell them that Xiao Nian Gao would be performing on stage tonight.
That's right, today is Lunar New Year's Eve.
Everyone is busy.
He Ziqian and his wife returned early in the morning, carrying their two children. They said they were there to celebrate the New Year with He's parents, but in reality, they were there for a big meal and to collect red envelopes.
They were celebrating their babies' 100th day and planned to host a banquet to receive red envelopes, but Brother He scolded them. Instead, the family had a 100-day celebration at a restaurant outside. Yun Jinhe didn't go because Xiao Niangao wanted to dance.
Feng Qianqian knew that Xiao Niangao was going to perform on stage tonight, and she was extremely jealous. How could Xiao Niangao be worthy of the gala? It must be that Yun Jin was shameless and forced her onto the stage.
Feng Qianqian secretly thought that when her two children grew up a bit, she would send them to sing and dance classes, and later send them to the entertainment industry to become big stars, so that she, as their mother, could also benefit from their success.
He Ziqian was jealous when he learned that Xiao Niangao was going to dance class: "Isn't she just someone who eats, drinks, and acts cute? She can dance? Is she going to be a comedian?"
Enraged, Mother He slapped her: "You think everyone is like you, a spendthrift! Our Nian Gao is excellent. She was selected after only half a month of learning. Just you wait and see, she dances very well!"
Mother He showed off.
He Ziqian said unhappily, "I'd like to see if she can pull off any amazing feats."
He Zizhen sneered, "Big brother is jealous. Little Niangao is outstanding, but you only have a son. You're envious?"
He Ziqian was arrogant and conceited: "Why would I envy a little girl? I have two children. When they grow up and become successful, how can Xiao Niangao compare to them?"
Just then, Yun Jin and He Tingchuan returned from outside and heard He Ziqian's words. Yun Jin mocked, "I hope your big and little babies won't follow suit, gamble away money, ruin their families, and even have a finger cut off."
He Ziqian was heartbroken.
Feng Qianqian looked unwell.
He Zizhen gloated.
Sister-in-law He found it grating and wanted to retort, but seeing He Tingchuan looking at her with a cold gaze, she wisely shut her mouth, knowing that He Tingchuan was not someone to be trifled with; this younger brother-in-law doted on his wife!
Having suffered a loss in silence, He Ziqian stopped discussing the topic.
Mother He didn't mention Yun Jin either; she hadn't said anything wrong, so why would she mention Yun Jin?
Mrs. He prepared a few dishes in advance and asked Yun Jin to pack one portion. The couple ate a few bites and then went to keep Xiao Niangao company.
Mrs. He also wanted to go, but with so many people at home, she didn't know what would happen if she left, so she had no choice but to stay.
Mr. He and Yun Jin left together in their car. Mr. He was a former boss and could go to the scene.
Yun Jin smiled and said, "Thanks to Nian Gao, my husband and I wouldn't have had a chance to go backstage!"
Mr. He glanced at He Tingchuan and said, "Tell him to work harder, do more tasks, and perform well so that he can take you to the site in the future."
Alexander's He Tingchuan was being looked at expectantly by Yun Jin. He clenched his fist secretly: "I'll do my best!"
Mr. He was dissatisfied with the answer and snorted coldly.
When they arrived at the destination, Mr. He did not go with them to see Xiao Niangao. He didn't want his identity to be exposed, and Yun Jin didn't want people to pay too much attention to Xiao Niangao's family background, lest they think that Xiao Niangao got in through connections.
After all, everyone who saw the medals hanging on Mr. He's clothes knew who he was.
Mr. He said, "Take more photos, I want to keep them in my album."
Yun Jin nodded, raised the camera in her hand, and promised to complete the task.
When they arrived backstage, the dressing room was noisy. The couple searched for a while before finally finding Xiao Niangao and her group of adorable children among a group of familiar actors, comedians, and comedians.
Lin Wenfang was doing their makeup, and she was too busy to handle it all by herself. When she saw Yun Jin, it was as if she had seen a savior: "Do you know how to do makeup?"
Yun Jin nodded.
Lin Wenfang was conscripted: "I'll have to trouble you to help me. I can't handle it all by myself. The previous makeup artist isn't feeling well and can't come. You'll have to do the makeup for the little boys. The heavier the better. Just do exactly what I'm doing."
Yun Jin watched for a while, indicating that she had learned it by eye. She immediately took off her thick coat and gave it to He Tingchuan, along with her bag, asking him to help her. She rolled up her sleeves and got to work.
Lin Wenfang was worried that Yun Jin wouldn't know how to do stage makeup, but after she quickly and skillfully applied makeup to a little boy's face, Lin Wenfang nodded in satisfaction and gave her a thumbs up: "Not bad, keep it up, I'll treat you to coffee next time!"
"Okay!" Yun Jin agreed with a smile, gesturing for the next little boy to come over. The process was like an assembly line; in just a few quick movements, she had one made. After warming up, the results were getting better and better.
He Tingchuan watched from the side, admiring his wife as she diligently applied makeup to the children, and thought she was incredibly charming.
He Tingchuan, with a camera hanging around his neck, couldn't resist taking a picture of Yun Jin.
When the second photo was taken, Yun Jin noticed, turned her head to look over, smiled, and looked absolutely stunning.
He Tingchuan snapped a picture, stunned by her beauty; her deep eyes were bright, and her gaze was almost effeminate.
Yun Jin's lips curled up, and she said, "Don't stare at me, go find your daughter!"
Feeling guilty, He Tingchuan was so focused on looking at his wife that he almost forgot the purpose of their visit. He immediately searched for Xiao Niangao in the crowd, who was still not fully cooked, and practiced her movements on the side.
A tap on the shoulder made Xiao Niangao turn around. She was stunned for a moment when she saw He Tingchuan, who was much taller than her and whom she had to crane her neck to see. Then, her eyes widened in surprise, and she excitedly rushed over, shouting, "Daddy!"
