Time flies, and in the blink of an eye it is less than a month away from the New Year! This is the first time in Luo Yu's life that he has spent the New Year in this strange place.

She was filled with anticipation and excitement for this special experience.

After all, the New Year represents new beginnings, new hopes, and a wonderful time to reunite with family.

At this moment, Luo Yu was standing in front of the window, gazing at the snow-covered mountains in the distance.

She couldn't help but think of the lively scenes during the Chinese New Year in previous years: red lanterns were hung high, fireworks and firecrackers were set off one after another; the whole family sat around the warm fire, enjoying the sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner, chatting and laughing...

Now, although she is far away from home and cannot spend the holidays with her family, she is still full of longing for the upcoming New Year in her heart.

Luo Yu knew that he would have his own unique New Year experience here.

Thinking of this, Luo Yu's face was filled with a happy smile.

"Mu Feng, the new year is coming soon, what are your plans?"

Looking at Luo Yu's expectant eyes, Mu Feng felt that if he didn't say something, she would turn around and leave immediately.

"I've seen other places where people hang red lanterns, light lanterns to pray, and set off firecrackers during the New Year..."

Well, it's exactly what Luo Yu thought! Apart from these, there is nothing else that can be used as a symbolic congratulation.

"But I haven't seen any in town. There are people selling lanterns and firecrackers."

Luo Yu thought that in this rural village, being able to have enough food and warm clothing in the new year was their best wish for the year.

Mu Feng looked at her sad face and said cheerfully, "If you like lanterns, I'll make a few and hang them up. They will be perfect for our new house!"

"You can make lanterns, that's just..."

Mu Feng wanted to hear her finish, but she stopped talking halfway through. He asked in confusion, "Why didn't you say anything more?"

Luo Yu chuckled and said, "I was just talking nonsense. Making lanterns is such a waste. You should read more books!"

I was wondering why she suddenly fell silent. It turned out she was afraid of delaying his studies!

"No problem, just tell me if you like it. If I can't make it, I'll buy it from you. Besides, it's just a few lanterns, it won't take much time, and I have to go out and walk around more!"

Luo Yu nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, then when you are tired of studying, come out and make lanterns, just make a few!"

"Well, where's Ah Ci? Why can't I see her?"

Mu Feng and Luo Yu were talking. They hadn't seen Luo Ci for a long time, so they started looking for her.

When it comes to Luo Ci, Luo Yu starts to have a headache.

Ever since Luo Yu bought the unwanted scraps from the owner of the cloth shop at a very low price and asked Yun Niang to make all kinds of head flowers and small items, Luo Ci saw it once and often asked to go to Yun Niang's house.

Just two days ago, if Luo Yu hadn't picked her up for dinner, she would have stayed at Yun Niang's house and not come back.

Of course, the styles of the headbands and small items were all based on the drawings given by Luo Yu. They would be of great use to her in the future, so she couldn’t be careless.

Aunt Lin and Luoluo were also doing it. Luo Ci didn't go to stay with Luoluo, mainly because Luoyang would disturb her. She went to Yunniang's house, and she and Yaya, who couldn't even hold the needle steadily, wanted to learn how to make hair flowers.

Seeing that she didn't say anything but just sighed, Mu Feng guessed, "But did you go to Yun Niang's house again?"

Luo Yu shrugged and said, "Yeah, right after dinner, he started clamoring to go to Yun's house. He couldn't stay at home any longer."

Mu Feng patted her head and comforted her: "As long as she is happy!"

She didn't need his comfort. She didn't like needlework. If Luo Ci insisted on asking her to teach her, she would really have a headache!

but. . .

"Mu Feng, I don't know how to sew. Do you think a woman like me is not a good match for you and can't sew clothes for you?"

Mu Feng frowned and said, "You are very good. You can buy clothes for yourself. You don't need to make them. I am not that old-fashioned. I like you as a person. It has nothing to do with whether you can sew or not!"

You’re quite good at speaking!

However, if one day in the future he disliked her for not being able to do needlework, she would divorce him without hesitation and find someone to beat him up!

As Luo Yu thought about it, he couldn't control himself and clenched his fists viciously.

"What are you thinking about? You look like you want to eat someone."

Luo Yu, who was still immersed in his own imagination, was interrupted by his sudden voice.

She turned her head and stared at Mu Feng. She saw that he was kind to her and never spoke to her in a hurry. He shouldn't be so mean to her, right?

"Haha~ I'm not thinking about anything. Just study! I'll go to the old house to check the pickles in the jar."

As he said this he walked out quickly, his blurry figure seemed to be fleeing in a panic!

Mu Feng shook his head, thinking that she was shy because of what he had just said!

Now that she couldn't hear him if he spoke, he focused on the book again.

Luo Yu came to the old house and looked at the radishes that had just been put into the jar. She thought to herself, "If you do this, the pickled radishes will taste better, so that all her hard work these days will not be in vain."

After Uncle Cai came back from eating hotpot, he let her place the order first, and she would pickle the food for them.

As soon as the order was received by her, she bought it from other villages and called the villagers to help her. She worked for several days to pickle it.

Luo Yu actually has other ways to make money, such as writing couplets, which is the best way to make money as the new year is approaching.

If she asked, Mu Feng would definitely write it down for her; but Luo Yu didn't want to, she hoped he could concentrate on his studies.

So, Luo Yu gave up this method of making money.

After strolling around the pickle jar in the old house, he came to the vegetable garden; but the vegetable garden was full of weeds or vegetables that were too old to be eaten, some of which were even taller than Luo Yu.

She planned to weed them all and tidy up the vegetable patch after some time; but she had not thought of what vegetables to plant for the time being. Mu Feng had opened a small vegetable patch for her in the backyard, but the vegetables had grown too tall and she could not eat all of them.

The older vegetable leaves become food for the chickens raised in the backyard.

Luo Yu only feeds the chickens on cold and windy days; at other times, she will exile them to the bamboo forest and let them forage freely.

Because she knows very well that chicken that exercises regularly tastes better!

She looked at the jar of pickles and saw that it was still early. Ah Ci must be studying harder at this moment, so she decided not to disturb her. She would go home and pack up to have a good New Year.

When Luo Yu returned home, she was slapped in the face by reality again; she didn't even need to clean the new house, it was still completely new, without even a speck of dust.

She wanted to organize her closet, but with just a few sets of clothes, it wasn't enough for her to waste time.

So Luo Yu sat in the room, staring at the tables and chairs in a daze, sighing from time to time.

“Come and watch me make lanterns!”
