On New Year's Day, everyone stays up all night.

Du Wenxiu was pregnant and in poor health, so she was exempted from this activity.

Du Xiucai came to Dongxing County from another county. Having taught for his entire life, he settled down here.

Du Wenxiu and her sister had no relatives to visit, so the family cooked a table full of dishes and made lots of buns and dumplings, and had a wonderful New Year.

In the middle of the night, someone climbed over the wall. Xiaohu was alert and grabbed the man by surprise and was about to knock him down.

"Good boy, you've made progress!" Hearing the familiar voice, Xiaohu couldn't help but hesitate for a moment, and was caught by the man and his hands were tied behind his back.

Seeing that he did not resist, the visitor knew that his identity was exposed, and chuckled, "It seems that I should feel relieved to have you in this family."

Having said that, he let go.

Xiaohu looked at him in the dark, with stars in his eyes, and said with admiration:

"Brother Lu, why are you back at this time?"

The person who came was Lu Fanghai. It was New Year's Day and there was no moon in the sky, so his appearance was not pleasing to the eye.

But I could hear the voice clearly. It had only been a few months since I left, so how could I have forgotten it?

"I'll go see your sister-in-law first, and then I'll tell you this." Lu Fanghai walked straight into the house, but was grabbed by Xiaohu.

"Brother Lu, don't. My sister-in-law doesn't sleep alone." Xiaohu said hurriedly.

Lu Fanghai grabbed his hand with his backhand and exerted force. Xiaohu felt the pain and gasped.

"What are you talking about? Aren't you afraid that I will beat you up?"

Xiao Hu said hurriedly, "Sister Lu and Sister Yue Niang sleep together. Brother Lu doesn't dare to go in like this."

When Lu Fanghai heard this, he knew he had misunderstood.

He chuckled and let go of his hand.

The two of them were talking outside louder and louder, first waking up A Luo and his mother, who turned on the light and asked who Xiao Hu was talking to.

Xiaohu raised his voice and answered, but he heard something falling on the ground in the main room, making a series of noises.

Instantly, the lights in the main room were lit, and several people came out wearing clothes.

"Oh, Fang Hai, it's you who's back." A Luo called softly. Lu Fanghai made a gesture to keep quiet, and A Luo quickly raised his hand to cover his mouth.

Du Wenxiu stood outside the main door, wearing thick clothes, looking at him, and felt her tears welling up uncontrollably.

I didn't want to cry, so why did the tears just flow down?

She just cried without saying anything, which made Lu Fanghai feel very distressed.

Yue Niang understood the situation and quietly went to A'luo's room with her clothes. Xiaohu also returned to the west wing. They all went in and closed the door, leaving the two of them to express their love to each other.

Lu Fanghai strode forward and reached out to hug Du Wenxiu, but he was afraid that the cold air on his body would make her catch a cold.

He just stood there stupidly, watching her smile.

Du Wenxiu rolled her eyes at him: "It's freezing cold, why are you standing outside? Come inside quickly."

After saying that, he turned around and went in, stirring the brazier to make it burn even more vigorously.

Lu Fanghai followed behind, just grinning foolishly, staring at Du Wenxiu's face for a while, as if he could never see enough of it in his lifetime.

After a while, he stared at her slightly bulging belly with a bit of curiosity and uneasiness.

"Why did you come back at this time? You didn't send any message back before you came." Du Wenxiu asked softly.

Lu Fanghai chuckled and said, "Prince Ning sent me to the capital to do some work. I just happened to have some time left after finishing the work, so I came to see you and I'll be leaving in a while."

Du Wenxiu was shocked: "It's only been such a short time, and you've already rushed back home. Why do you have to tire yourself out like this?"

"I haven't seen you for a few months. Seeing you makes me feel at ease. I think Prince Ning also knows this, so he sent me here."

"Have you eaten yet? Everyone is on holiday at this time of year, I guess you are still hungry."

When Du Wenxiu thought of this, she couldn't help but feel restless, so she stood up and went to the kitchen to light a fire and cook for him.

Lu Fanghai was feeling warmer now, so he hugged her tightly, and Du Wenxiu was so scared that she waved her hand to hit him.

"Be careful of the baby in your belly!"

Lu Fanghai was startled and quickly let go, feeling a little helpless for a moment.

"I, I just came back to see you. I brought some dry food with me and I'll eat it on the way. Please sit with me for a while and talk."

Lu Fanghai murmured, and seeing that he didn't know where to put his hands, Du Wenxiu couldn't help but soften her voice.

"I have some freshly made dumplings at home. I'll cook some sour soup dumplings for you to warm you up. It's freezing cold, and the dry food is cold and hard. Be careful not to upset your stomach."

Lu Fanghai just held her hand and didn't ask her to go.

There was a sound outside the window. Du Wenxiu walked over and saw that the light was on and the fire was lit in the kitchen.

I think A Luo and the others must have thought that Lu Fanghai coming here at this time, and might be hungry.

Du Wenxiu couldn't help but sigh in her heart that women were more attentive, so she sat back down.

After telling him what happened in the area recently, Lu Fanghai said, "I know all this."

Du Wenxiu glared at him, raised his hand and slapped him on the shoulder, angrily saying: "You already know what I am talking about, why bother asking me to say anything? Just keep silent."

Lu Fanghai wrapped his big hand around hers, put it to his mouth, and laughed muffledly: "I just want to hear you talk, I want to hear your voice."

Du Wenxiu was speechless for a moment. The hot air from Lu Fanghai's mouth rushed onto her hands, making them feel sticky.

A Luo quickly brought a bowl of sour soup dumplings, and the two finally let go.

"I thought you must be hungry since you came here so late at night. It's cold outside, so I cooked some sour soup dumplings. You can eat them to warm your stomach and feel better."

A Luo felt embarrassed to enter a couple's bedroom in the middle of the night.

Lu Fanghai thanked him and started eating with big mouthfuls.

Du Wenxiu also told A Luo that he would be leaving soon. A Luo was also surprised. Looking at Lu Fanghai who was busy eating, he couldn't help but feel grateful for the deep love between them.

"I'll go make some pancakes for Fang Hai to eat on the road. Even if he doesn't have time to eat, he can soak them in hot water before eating. They will definitely taste better than dry food."

Having said that, A Luo turned around and went back into the kitchen to work.

"Look, I'm doing fine at home, don't worry. Besides, the workshop is getting bigger and bigger now, and there's no need to worry about sales. Maybe when you come back, you can just be a rich man and be at ease."

Lu Fanghai was probably very hungry. After he finished eating the dumplings, he drank the soup in one gulp. He was sweating all over before he felt refreshed.

"I know something about the workshop. The people in Zang Yaxuan are also the prince's subordinates, but they are not from the same faction as me. They have other tasks to do, but I don't know the details."

"But this man is trustworthy, so you can cooperate with him without any worries."

After eating, Lu Fanghai raised his hand to wipe his mouth. Du Wenxiu gave him a disapproving look, reached out to open his hand, and handed him her handkerchief.

Lu Fanghai chuckled, holding her handkerchief but not wanting to wipe his mouth. He carefully folded it into a small square and put it carefully into the innermost layer of his arms.

"I don't know when I'll be back next time, so I'll just keep it with me as a reminder."

Du Wenxiu didn't bother to talk to him, and asked in confusion: "I thought Prince Ning had made such thorough preparations that there would be a result before the end of the year. Why did it take so long?"
