Taking the supermarket space and becoming cannon fodder!

"Happy New Year!"

Everyone wished each other well, with happy smiles on their faces.

Huo Xunye took the opportunity to quietly approach Wen Xin and whispered, "Happy New Year, I wish you all your wishes come true and everything goes well."

Wen Xin looked at him and replied with a smile, "I also hope that all your wishes will come true and you will be safe."

"Yeah." Huo Xunye raised the corners of his mouth, as if there was honey in his eyes.

After that, they went back to their houses to rest. They would go to pay New Year's greetings tomorrow, the first day of the Lunar New Year.

Wen Xin returned to the house, added firewood to the stove, and then got into bed.

Because the kang was always hot, Wen Xin had spread out the quilt on it early, so it was extremely warm as soon as she entered.

She sighed with satisfaction, thinking that 1975 was over.

It has been four months since she came here. She has gradually become accustomed to the life here and has found pleasure in it.

Hope you enjoy the next two years.

Wen Xin gradually fell asleep. With a smile on his face, he must have had a sweet dream.

The alarm clock rang on time the next day.

Wen Xin got up from the bed, turned off the alarm clock, patted her face, and got up with difficulty.

Get up, make the bed, wash up, and cook dumplings to eat.

Before I finished eating, someone knocked on the door.

"Here we come." Wen Xin said after swallowing her last mouthful.

"Xinxin, are you okay?" It was Zhao Wanqing.

"I'll be ready soon." Wen Xin said.

Zhao Wanqing came in and sat down. When she saw that she had not finished her meal, she quickly said, "It's okay. You can finish your meal slowly first. I'm just very excited and came to talk to you."

Wen Xin sat down and continued to eat the remaining dumplings. She smiled and said, "I see you are very excited."

Zhao Wanqing wore a new suit of clothes today, and she looked particularly energetic and radiant.

After eating, Wen Xin washed the bowl and put it away.

Putting on the new clothes they bought earlier, the two of them went out together.

Today Wen Xin is wearing a red coat, black pants, and black cotton boots. There is a beige hat on his head, which makes him look particularly festive and rare.

Zhao Wanqing is wearing a military green jacket, black pants, black cotton shoes, and a white hat on her head. She is very energetic.

When I was in the yard, I happened to meet Zhang Yingying and Wang Yumei. They also put on new clothes.

Zhang Yingying greeted them, "Wanqing, Xinxin, happy New Year."

They also enthusiastically replied "Happy New Year."

Wang Yumei also smiled and said, "I hope we all have good luck and happiness this year."

The four of them met to pay New Year greetings to acquaintances in the village. Actually, there weren't many, just the captain's house and Aunt Guihua's house next door.

They first went to the brigade leader's house. When they arrived, there were other people paying New Year greetings. After they entered, Aunt Huaihua greeted them quickly.

"Come on, sit down quickly and eat some melon seeds and peanuts. There's also sugar here."

Zhao Wanqing and the others said, "Auntie, Happy New Year."

Aunt Huaihua responded with a smile, "Happy New Year, Happy New Year."

Wen Xin grabbed a few peanuts to eat while watching Aunt Huaihua and Zhao Wanqing chatting.

After chatting for a few minutes, we were obviously very happy.

It was Zhao Wanqing who said first, "Auntie, we are leaving first. Please entertain the guests properly. Sorry for disturbing you."

Aunt Huaihua said, "Okay, then I won't keep you. There are many people today. When you have time later, I invite you to come to my aunt's house for dinner."

The four nodded.

After coming out, Wen Xin quietly teased Zhao Wanqing and asked in a low voice, "What's going on, Wanqing, does Auntie know about the two of you?"

Zhao Wanqing's face immediately turned red, and she said shyly, "Oh, that's right, that's right, I should have just found out."

Seeing her like this, Wen Xin felt that it was Lin Dongze who confessed, which was good. They were serious.

After that, the four of them went to Aunt Guihua’s house to pay New Year greetings.

As soon as I entered, I saw a bunch of children.

Tuantuan is wearing round clothes today and has a red headband on her head. She looks as cute as a doll in a New Year picture.

Tuantuan saw them and said, "Happy New Year, sisters, and all the best. I hope you can eat sweets every day."

The most sincere blessings from children.

Wen Xin said, "Happy New Year to Tuantuan. I hope you have endless candies." She stuffed a handful of candies into her pocket.

Zhao Wanqing also smiled and said, "Happy New Year, Tuantuan." She also stuffed her with candy.

Zhang Yingying and Wang Yumei also wished her a happy new year, "Happy New Year." They still stuffed candies in her pocket.

Tuantuan touched his pocket full of candies, smiling so hard that his eyes almost disappeared, and he gritted his teeth and was very happy.

"Thank you sister."

Wen Xin touched her cheek and whispered, "I'll go to my sister's place later. There will be delicious food."

Tuantuan nodded and replied in a low voice, "Okay, this is our secret."

Aunt Guihua, who was in the house, heard the commotion and came out to take a look. She quickly called them into the house, "Quick, come in and sit down. It's cold outside. Tuantuan come in too."

Tuantuan walked over and quietly said to her mother, "Mom, my sisters all gave me candies."

Aunt Guihua looked at her bulging pocket and said, "Then have you said thank you to your sisters?"

Tuantuan nodded heavily and said, "I said it!"

Aunt Guihua said, "That's good. These sugar girls will be put in your little box separately for you first. If you want to eat, go and get them, but you can't eat too much at one time, okay?"

"Okay." Tuantuan nodded.

"Okay, let's go play." Aunt Guihua said, patting Tuantuan's butt.

"Yeah, let's go play." Tuantuan jumped out and went out.

In the room, Aunt Osmanthus placed melon seeds, peanuts, pastries, and sugar water on the table, calling them, "Quick, try it, we made it ourselves."

Wen Xin and the others ate peanuts and chatted with their aunt.

"Auntie, are you at home alone?"

Aunt Guihua said, "Your Uncle Lin went out to pay New Year's greetings, Tuan Tuan went out to play, and my eldest son also went out to pay New Year's greetings."

Wang Yumei asked, "I thought you only had one child in Tuan Tuan."

Aunt Guihua said with a smile, "My son works in a steel factory in the city, and he usually doesn't have much time to come back."

Zhang Yingying praised, "That's really awesome. I'm already working in the city. Auntie, you taught me well."

Aunt Guihua laughed loudly, "No, that kid is lucky. He just meets the conditions when they recruit a job."

Wen Xin continued, "If you find a wife then, your family's life will be better and better."

Aunt Guihua was very happy.

What parent doesn't like others to praise their children.

After chatting for a while, they stood up and left.

Back at the Educated Youth Institute, there was nothing else to do, so we just sat together and chatted.

While chatting, I heard the voice of a child.

It was Tuantuan who brought her good friends to pay her New Year greetings.

Tuantuan was more familiar with them and came up directly, "Sister Xin, sister Wanqing, sister Yingying, sister Yumei, Happy New Year."

Several other little girls also shouted, "Sisters, Happy New Year."
