This Lunar New Year's Eve was the most lively one the Ji Family and Chu families had ever experienced.
Besides the constant stream of visitors to the Ji Family in the afternoon, there were also visits from both families together.
In particular, the most common type of person is someone who brings their son or daughter to our door hoping to find a good marriage for their child.
Of course, the main victim of blind dates is Ji Xingchi, after all, he is the oldest and the next head of the Ji Family, making him an extremely sought-after commodity.
Next is Ji Xingyu. A little girl is hopelessly in love with him and immediately confesses her feelings, which startles Ji Xingyu into waving his hands and saying, "I don't like women!"
The little girl pouted, on the verge of tears. "Brother Xingyu, you must be lying to me! I don't believe you! Unless you prove it to me!"
"Whether you believe me or not is none of my business! Who do you think you are? Do you expect me to prove it to you? Go away, go away, don't come to my house to cause trouble during the New Year!"
He was already being polite by not telling her to get lost!
The little girl's parents then apologized and left with her before the Ji Family could say anything.
Ji Xingyu rolled his eyes. "Anyone dares to come to our house now..."
Ji Xingxu: "Second brother, you said you don't like women... so you must have a man you like? So who is your sister-in-law?"
Does disliking women necessarily mean you like men? What kind of absurd logic is that?
Ji Xingyao: "Indeed, so Second Brother, put in more effort to bring her back! Ah-- Could it be that she doesn't like you? Tsk tsk tsk--"
"My Chengcheng likes me a lot! Stop spreading rumors!"
Ji Xingyao and Ji Xingxu exclaimed in unison, "Oh~~~ so Second Sister-in-law's name has 'Cheng' in it!"
Ji Xingyu: "..." There's absolutely no way I can bring him back now! Chengcheng is so gentle, I can't let you two brats scare him!
After all the commotion, it was soon time for dinner. After the two families finished eating together, the most important moment arrived: giving out lucky money!
The most excited were, of course, the two youngest, Yu Niuniu and Chu Rui.
They sat very obediently, watching the two families' parents with eager eyes. When they finally received a stack of red envelopes, they jumped up happily.
The next second--
Ji Ying snatched the red envelope from Yu Niuniu's hand. "Daughter! You usually spend quite a bit, consider this your early tribute to your mother!"
Yu Niuniu stomped her feet. "Mom, aren't you ashamed! How dare you steal a child's New Year's money! If you want New Year's money, ask Grandpa to give it to you!!"
Ji Ying, hands on hips, said, "Aren't you ashamed? You're my daughter, what's yours is mine, and what's mine is still mine! Hey, come and take it! If you manage to take it, I'll give it back to you!"
"You, you, you...! Behold my Foshan Shadowless Kick!"
Ji Nanshu smiled and leaned back on the sofa; his niece was truly adorable.
Ji Ying and her mother were bickering, Yu Ze shook his head helplessly and sat down next to Ji Nanshu, handing her a red envelope. " An'an, this is your New Year's money. Your sister has been putting money into this every year since college, saying it's for her youngest brother's New Year's money."
"After we got married, I also deposited a sum of money into it every year. So this is for you from your sister and me. An'an, take it."
Ji Nanshu was a little embarrassed, but accepted the red envelope and said, "Thank you, brother-in-law."
"It's good that you're back."
Yu Ze's gaze softened.
He and Ji Ying had been dating since their student days. He knew his wife and the Ji Family quite well, if not completely, and he always knew how much they loved their youngest brother. So he was happy when Ji Nanshu was found.
Then the Ji Family and the Chu family started giving Ji Nanshu red envelopes one by one, and even Chu Rui prepared a New Year's gift for Ji Nanshu.
Ji Nanshu and expressed his gratitude.
Chu Mo watched as Ji Nanshu's eyes gradually welled up with tears, his red nose revealing the indescribable emotions he was experiencing.
He thought that having such a family was probably the best gift he could receive in his life, besides being able to love and stay with Chu Mo.
After the red envelopes were distributed, it was time for the annual Spring Festival Gala. The older generation gathered in front of the TV to watch it. Ji Nanshu and Chu Mo, however, secretly slipped out.
It was still snowing lightly outside. The two ran to the street and bought a bag of fireworks, then found an open space to set them off.
The surrounding area was filled with parents with their children, couples, and groups of friends, all gathered together and setting off fireworks.
call out--
The firework shot rapidly into the sky, and with a loud bang, the colorful fireworks exploded in the night sky, it was absolutely beautiful.
Ji Nanshu and Chu Mo held hands tightly, watching the fireworks explode, and smiles unconsciously spread across their faces.
That's the taste of happiness and peace of mind.
Under the night sky adorned with fireworks, the two shared their first kiss of the new year.
Without any lust, it was simply two hearts drawing closer once more.
For Ji Nanshu, this was the happiest year since his master and mistress passed away, filled with the blessings of family, loved ones, and friends.
Master, Mistress, you should be able to see this, right? Your disciple is doing very well now, you can rest assured.
Of course, while some people are doing well, others are not.
Ming Anya, heavily pregnant, brought Bai Nanzheng back to the Ming family for the New Year. Not only was she ridiculed by the Ming brothers, Ming Er and Ming Xiu, but she was also given the cold shoulder by the rest of the Ming family.
Ming Anya cried and questioned, "Grandpa! Dad! And my older brothers, aren't I a biological child of the Ming family? Why are you treating me like this? I just like someone, what's wrong with that?!"
Mingde didn't know what to say about this daughter. He really didn't like this daughter who was born with ulterior motives, but she was still his own flesh and blood. As long as she didn't go too far, he would turn a blind eye to many things.
Before meeting Bai Nanzheng, she was indeed a bit spoiled, but she wasn't as clueless about right and wrong as she is now.
She only has eyes for Bai Nanzheng now. Oh well, let's just pretend we never raised him.
Mingde said coldly, "Are you finished? If you are, then leave. You can say these things after Bai Nanzheng passes the test."
Bai Nanzheng then spoke up, "Dad, Grandpa, eldest brother, second brother, I will prove it to you."
After saying that, the two left the gifts and departed.
Ming'er scoffed, "Disgusting!"
Mingxiu shook his head. "She'll learn her lesson."
Bai Nanyu also had a difficult time this year.
My father was at another woman's house, my second brother went out drinking and drowning his sorrows, and my eldest brother and sister-in-law went to the Imperial Capital.
The vast Bai Family was now empty except for him and one or two servants, and for a moment he didn't know what to do.
It wasn't until He Li called him and asked him to come find him.
Bai Nanyu's face was extremely grim after hanging up the phone. How could he not know why this person was calling him? It was that kind of thing, wasn't it?
But he couldn't not go.
Hai City Hotel, Room 1812.
Upon entering, I saw He Jingyi sitting on the sofa in a bathrobe, holding a glass of red wine, his eyes filled with lewd intent.
"Your clothes are over there, you've changed."
Bai Nanyu took a deep breath, his face filled with humiliation.
1. Is it mandatory to wear it?
"Of course, that's what makes it fun, isn't it?"
"Knew..."
