Xie Yuanzhou appeared from somewhere and leaned over to ask Shen Youning in her ear.

"Wife, when will you tell me a story?"

Shen Youning lowered her eyes and pinched her fingers.

"I know so many things, you just know where they are."

After Shen Youning finished speaking, she turned around and wanted to go play with her son.

This group of Zhang family members were so enthusiastic that she found it a little hard to accept.

This is the first time we meet and we are not related by blood, so how can we be so close?

They were so close that she felt embarrassed.

You just met, so don't get too close to her, otherwise she will get nervous and easily get aggressive.

In the evening, Xie Yuanzhou's aunt and second aunt prepared a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner.

There were clinking glasses, laughter and joy at the dinner table, and an atmosphere of happiness and warmth of a big reunion.

When it was getting dark, they were ready to go back.

One by one, big red envelopes were stuffed into the hands of Xie Yuanzhou, Shen Youning and Xie Anche.

Shen Youning felt the thickness of the red envelope, and a glimmer of light flashed across his calm eyes.

Well, rich.

And it feels like a lot.

Today's trip to the relatives seems to be worthwhile~

When we got home in the evening, the little guy had already fallen asleep in Xie Yuanzhou's arms.

The noise of their return home startled He Yuling and her friends who were sitting next door.

He Yuling was dressed warmly and popped her head out from the other side of the wall.

There was curiosity in her eyes.

"Sister Shen, today is New Year's Eve, why aren't you at home?"

Shen Youning answered while parking his bicycle.

"I went out to someone else's house, had a meal, recognized a relative, and brought back a lot of red envelopes."

"Hehe~" He Yuling became happy after hearing that.

"It sounds like Sister Shen had a fruitful trip today."

"Sister Shen, do you want to come over and play cards with us to celebrate the New Year?"

"It's still early before 12 o'clock, and there's nothing fun for the three of us to play at home."

Just at this time, Xie Anche woke up again.

As soon as he heard about playing, the little guy immediately became energetic again.

"Okay, Aunt He." He answered on behalf of his mother.

Shen Youning and the others packed up and came to Liu Bailu with snacks.

On the table in the living room, there was a messy deck of cards that had not been played yet.

When He Longfei saw Xie Yuanzhou, he felt like he had seen a savior.

"Yuanzhou, you're finally back!"

"If you don't come back, I'll be harassed to death by these two lesbians."

"It's just a game of cards. They are almost playing cards to death. Why would they care so much about it?"

"Come on, let's go play chess and let the three girls play cards."

He Longfei patted Xie Yuanzhou on the shoulder and quickly pulled him aside, as if he was afraid that Liu Bailu and the others would call him again.

The white and slender fingers moved slightly, and a faint smile floated at the corner of the mouth.

Shen Youning glanced at He Longfei.

He Longfei noticed Shen Youning's gaze and his eyelids couldn't help twitching.

He quickly stretched out his big hand to stop it.

"It's New Year's Day, don't say anything to spoil the fun, I won't listen."

"Brother He, look how nervous you are. Do you think I'm a pessimist and can speak eloquently?" A familiar slow tone sounded in the living room.

Every time Shen Youning speaks, the noise around her becomes particularly quiet, and her voice seems particularly influential.

"Then I wish you a happy new year, good health, smooth sailing, and prosperity."

"What does this mean?" He Longfei looked like an illiterate who couldn't understand.

The smile in Shen Youning's gentle eyes deepened, but the attacking power in them did not diminish in the slightest.

A faint smile appeared on her shiny and smooth pink lips.

"Less healthy, faster, go crazy to the end."

As soon as Shen Youning said this, He Longfei's calm middle-aged face became constipated.

Who gives people this kind of blessing on New Year’s Eve?

Xie Yuanzhou's daughter-in-law needs to be educated well.

He Longfei cannot get involved with a female comrade, but he can get involved with the family members of a female comrade.

He looked at Xie Yuanzhou with a serious face.

"Yuanzhou, personal excellence is not true excellence."

"Family education and ideological education are equally important."

Xie Yuanzhou, who was caught in the middle and felt awkward, quickly pulled He Longfei to sit down.

"Brother He, we are not talking about playing chess, let's play chess."

Shen Youning glanced at the two rough men and then went to Liu Bailu and the others.

Liu Bailu secretly gave Shen Youning a thumbs up.

Whispered, "Xiao Shen, are you still the best?"

"This person is so shameless and yet he still has a reason to blame me."

"Come on, the three of us will leave these two alone."

“We play by ourselves.”

Here, the crisp sound of chess pieces falling could be heard.

Xie Yuanzhou, who was playing chess, suddenly spoke.

"Mr. Zhang asked me to say hello."

"How could that be possible..." Mr. Zhang asked me.

The words came out subconsciously, and He Longfei's body stiffened, and the hand that was moving the chess piece stopped in mid-air.

After a while, he picked up the chess piece again.

The deep voice carries a hint of nostalgia.

"You all know?"

Xie Yuanzhou: “Yeah.”

He Longfei: "When did you know?"

Xie Yuanzhou: "Just now."

He Longfei paused playing chess again and looked at Xie Yuanzhou with some anger on his face.

"Boy, are you cheating me?"

He just said, how could Mr. Zhang say such a thing.

There was a sound of "clang".

He Longfei threw the chess piece away in annoyance.

He glanced at Xie Yuanzhou sideways, his face becoming even angrier.

"Just like your wife, cunning and annoying."

"Don't talk about this kind of hidden relationship. Just keep it to yourself."

"Also, don't think too much, kid. I really value you."

"In the entire 119th Regiment, you are the only one who matches my temperament."

"I don't just give people face, I also consider people."

"Otherwise, I will make sure you have enough food and clothes and don't die."

The slight confusion in Xie Yuanzhou's heart was finally resolved.

He thanked his grandfather's family for their help.

But he also wants to make friends with like-minded people through his own abilities.

"Thank you, Brother He." Xie Yuanzhou said sincerely.

"What are you thanking me for!" He Longfei patted Xie Yuanzhou on the shoulder with his big hand and secretly destroyed the chess game with his other hand.

"We are brothers who have been through thick and thin together. Let's talk about our own affairs. There's no need to be so complicated."

"Come on, come on, come on. The pieces are all messed up. Let's start over. What happened just now doesn't count. Let's start over."

"Look, that guy is really a deadbeat." Liu Bailu on this side saw He Longfei's little cheating actions and could only indulge him.

"What kind of old man is like this? He is so shameless. It's really shameless."

Shen Youning glanced at him and said, "Men are all children who never grow up."

"Especially a man who is happy and pampered by someone."

The helplessness on Liu Bailu's face turned into shyness.

"Xiao Shen, you just know how to talk."

……

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Shen Youning put a red cotton jacket on little Xie Anche.

The little guy is handsome and fair, and the red color makes him look even more handsome.

Early in the morning, children came from every household to wish everyone a happy new year and say auspicious words.

Xie Yuanzhou took his son to wrap red envelopes yesterday.

The red envelopes nowadays are small.

But you are small and I am small too, so neither of us is much older than the other.

The red envelopes that Xie Yuanzhou gave to the staff quarters were each worth one cent.

Originally, I wanted to guarantee 5 points, but he is the captain of the special forces after all, so he can't be too stingy.

But don't underestimate this 1 cent red envelope.

People nowadays don’t have family planning, so they have a lot of children in their lifetime. Just a few kids from any family will cost a few dollars.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the gates of the courtyards in the staff quarters were wide open.

However, not all adults will give red envelopes to children.

Most people just stuff two cheap fruit candies into their mouths and call it a day.

"Xie Anche! Xie Anche!"

At the gate of the yard, the kids who usually played well with the little guy came to call him.

The little guy quickly picked up the bowl and ate the last bite.

"Dad, Mom, I'm going to ask for red envelopes."

"Play by yourselves."

After the little guy finished speaking, he picked up the small shoulder bag he had taken out early in the morning and put it on his body.

Once he puts on the little hat, he exudes the unique temperament of a child of that time.

"Don't be impatient, wait a minute." Xie Yuanzhou chased after him.

Red envelopes and candies were given to all the children who came to visit the little guy.

The children who received both red envelopes and candies had their eyes lit up with joy.

"An Che's father is so generous."

"Uncle will definitely get promoted this year."

"Uncle is going to give birth to a son this year."

……

"Uncle, don't worry, we will take care of An Che."

A large group of children, saying all sorts of blessings, left in a mighty procession.

Xie Yuanzhou laughed and shook his head, then went back to continue accompanying his wife.
