Seeing the crime scene flashbacks made me the darling of the police station.

Chapter 94 Returning to My Hometown for the New Year
Fuxiang Village, Qingyou District.

When Su Miaoyi arrived, the sun was almost setting.

The car stopped outside the village, and Cheng Jue came to pick her up.

"Sis." Cheng Jue ran a few steps to her side and took the suitcase and the bags she was carrying. "You bought so much stuff again."

“My suitcase is full of things I bought for the children,” Su Miaoyi said. “We only see each other once a year, so I have to be polite.”

Cheng Jue didn't say anything.

Su Miaoyi looked around.

In Jinghai City, the snow on the roads has been mostly cleared, and the cleanup is quite good.

Only in the green belts can you still see some snow.

But it's different in the village.

Because some houses are tall and block the sun, the snow on the streets hadn't melted and had become hard again from being trampled.

It's even slipperier now.

Some families are not coming back.

There was no cleaning either.

The snow is still very thick in many places.

"Did you take them out for a snowball fight?" Su Miaoyi asked.

“I’m all grown up now, I’m not a child anymore, how could I lead a bunch of kids to play such childish games?” As soon as Cheng Jue finished speaking, Su Miaoyi threw a handful of snow at him.

He suddenly stopped.

Su Miaoyi squatted by the roadside with an evil smile on her face, laughing as she squeezed a snowball in her hand, preparing to make an even bigger one.

Cheng Jue watched the snowball in her hand grow bigger and bigger, then grabbed his suitcase and ran.

Su Miaoyi let him run for four or five meters first, and then chased after him.

When the two returned, their heads and clothes were covered in snow.

"Hey, where have you two been? Did you fall in the snow?" Ge Yu looked at the two of them.

The two stood there without saying a word.

Cheng Yong said, "Come in quickly and warm up. Your hands are all red from the cold."

The two entered the room.

The room was full of people.

Su Miaoyi called out to everyone one by one.

"Miaomiao is back? Come here, come here, sit here."

Su Miaoyi smiled and said, "Second Aunt, I'll sit here."

Cheng Jue moved a stool over and placed it next to the radiator for her to sit down, then he sat down next to her.

The two of them were warming their hands.

"Miaomiao, how old are you this year?" Auntie moved a stool over and sat down.

"I'm twenty-five years old now," Su Miaoyi said with a smile.

"Oh dear, you're not young anymore. Do you have a boyfriend yet?"

"Not yet," Su Miaoyi said.

"We need to hurry. The years go by so fast. In a few years, I'll be thirty. It'll be harder to find a job after thirty."

“Okay, I’ll hurry.” Su Miaoyi nodded.

“I have a nephew, would you like to meet him?” Auntie San sat down as well. “He’s over 1.8 meters tall, very handsome, and will be 30 after the New Year. He works in Jinghai City and earns more than 10,000 yuan a month.”

“He’s thirty years old, which is five years older than my sister,” Cheng Jue said from the side.

"What do you know? Older men are better; they'll be more caring. Otherwise, if everyone's an immature kid like you, are you looking for a man or a child to raise when you get married?"

Cheng Jue opened his mouth, looked at Su Miaoyi, and asked in a low voice, "Isn't it good to be young?"

"How would I know? I haven't even talked about it," Su Miaoyi said softly.

"Where does Miaomiao work now?" Her aunt sat down as well.

"Ah, I'm an editor, a novel editor." Su Miaoyi didn't mention that she was writing, worried that if she did, it would be circulated around.

"How much do you earn a month?" my aunt asked.

"Ah, I won't make much money," Su Miaoyi said with a smile. "If you ask me, you should take the civil service exam. You went to a teachers' college, so taking the exam and becoming a teacher would be great. It's stable, easy, and you get summer and winter vacations," her aunt said. "Teachers also have an easy time getting married."

Su Miaoyi nodded with a smile.

She knew that changing the mindset of an individual or even a generation was very difficult.

Debate is useless.

Therefore, we must learn to take the initiative and to ask questions in return.

"Did my cousin pass the civil service exam?" Su Miaoyi asked.

The aunt paused for a moment and said, "Your cousin is a man, and he will have to earn money to support the family in the future. He said that he won't take the civil service exam because he thinks he will earn less money."

"I understand, I didn't pass the exam," Su Miaoyi said.

My aunt's face darkened for a moment.

During the Lunar New Year, Su Miaoyi offered another way out: "There are too many people taking the civil service exam, it's really hard to pass. Other jobs are also very good, it's not like there's only one path, right, Aunt?"

My aunt nodded: "Yes, other jobs are just as good."

Su Miaoyi looked at her.

Her aunt looked at her, paused, and said, "You're a very good editor, very good."

Su Miaoyi smiled sweetly.

Cheng Jue lowered his head and chuckled, then directed the fire onto himself.

"When will the art exam results be released?" my aunt asked.

Cheng Jue suddenly suppressed his laughter: "April, I guess."

"Senior year of high school is a crucial time. Why spend money on that? It's a waste of money, a waste of time, and it interferes with your studies. There's no guarantee you'll even pass the exam. Even if you do, the subsequent schooling will cost a fortune, and it's uncertain whether you'll be able to find a job after graduation. All you do is go through this useless trouble. If I were your parents, I wouldn't agree to it."

Cheng Jue remained silent.

While gently patting Cheng Jue's arm, Su Miaoyi said, "Don't worry, Aunt. Xiao Jue has good looks and talent. He's just born to be in this line of work. He definitely won't have to worry about finding a job in the future."

"You don't need to worry about money at all. I'm your older sister. And if all else fails, there's always my cousin. From what my aunt said, my cousin earns a lot of money. I'll ask him for help when I need it. With so much money, how could he not lend it to me?"

"Your cousin is saving his money to get married," his aunt said.

"He doesn't have a wife yet, does he?" Su Miaoyi stabbed her in the heart. "I heard from my cousin that he won't be bringing a girlfriend back for the next two or three years. Aunt, don't worry, you can relax for a few more years."

My aunt stopped talking, got up and said, "I'll go outside and see if I can help."

My second aunt also left.

Auntie said, "Miaomiao, I'll give you my nephew's WeChat."

"Um, well, I..." Su Miaoyi was about to refuse when her third aunt suddenly got up and left, not giving her a chance to refuse.

Su Miaoyi: "."

Cheng Jue and his companion exchanged a glance and sighed together.

At the same time, I remembered that I shouldn't sigh during the New Year.

The two of them inhaled the air together.

Then they all laughed.

"I'll go and distribute the gifts."

"I'll go as well."

After the New Year's Eve dinner, the whole family, almost twenty people, stayed up together to welcome the new year.

Fireworks are not allowed here.

But I still secretly released a few.

Su Miaoyi took some photos of the fireworks and posted them in the group chat.

A little while later, Lu Zhishen also posted photos of fireworks.

Chu Xingrou posted a picture from the internet.

Yan Cheng sent a picture of a pitch-black sky.

Qi Feng only grabbed the red envelopes and didn't say anything.

This group was also created by him on the spot today.

A while later, Zhuang Yanzheng sent a message: [Where are you? I'll notify the local police station to arrest you.]
Su Miaoyi was speechless and threw a bombshell at him.
