"Honey! Take the meat out of the refrigerator and thaw it, or it will be hard to cut!"

"Okay, honey, the fruits are all cut and placed on the living room table. You, mom, and the kids can eat first!"

"Uncle Mu, I have washed the vegetables. Where should I put them?"

"Dad, I've finished peeling my garlic. I peeled a lot. I love eating dumplings with garlic sauce!"

"Feng Ting, come and rest after you finish your work. You are the busiest person today. The two children should stop working and come to grandma to get the red envelope!"

"Okay, mom, wife, let's set up the table first! Everyone is happy today, and I guess mom is itching to play cards. Let's play cards with mom later!"

"Yeah! I want to join in too! Together with my brother, we can definitely win this time!"

The small room was filled with all kinds of sounds, but it was not noisy at all. The family of five had smiles on their faces and were busy preparing for the New Year's Eve dinner.

Gu Min and Mu Qingnian also received red envelopes from the three people. When Gu Min opened the red envelopes, he was a little surprised. The money in each red envelope might not be that much, about three hundred yuan, but there were nine hundred yuan in three red envelopes, which was a huge sum of money for a child.

He felt a little hot, and when he looked up and saw that Nian Nian didn't seem shocked, he knew that she was used to it...

Sure enough, my intuition when I first saw her was right. She was really a child who grew up being loved, but she was not spoiled like other children. She was principled and kind-hearted. It was only in such a loving family that she could be raised to be so pure...

Gu Min was thinking when Lin Wanru suddenly came towards him with something, bent down, and said to him, "Xiao Min, Nian Nian's New Year's money has been deposited in her own account since she was a child. We thought about opening an account for you. The compensation you gave us before has been deposited in that account. This is the passbook, you must keep it well. As for your New Year's money, if you want, you can also deposit it in it. The password is the day you came to our house. Remember it?"

Gu Min was stunned and didn't react for a long time. Every word Aunt Lin said was like a bomb that hit him, making him unbelievable as if he was dreaming...

When I gave out the compensation money, my uncle and aunt refused it in every possible way. I finally accepted it. Did they save it for me?

Not to mention that I am just an adopted child, even my biological parents can't do this...

How come I'm so lucky...

When he looked up again, Gu Min's eyes were slightly red, and he hesitated, not knowing how to respond. Lin Wanru just smiled and touched his head, then turned and left. However, at the moment she turned around, she heard the boy's small but slightly choked voice...

"Thanks......"

Lin Wanru smiled, turned around and said, "You're welcome, little man of our family, go put it away quickly, we'll come out to play cards later! Auntie will teach you how to beat your uncle."

Gu Min burst into laughter and said, "Okay, Auntie!"

--------------

What Lin Wanru said about completely defeating Mu Fengting was really not just talk. When Gu Min and Mu Qingnian were sitting in the same direction, he watched everyone play cards and listened to Mu Qingnian explaining the rules to him. He saw Uncle Mu being beaten by Aunt Lin, and Grandma sometimes helped Aunt Lin and sometimes reaped the benefits. The confrontation among everyone was extremely fierce.

He even suspected that his uncle's love for his wife prevailed again, which was why he gave in to Aunt Lin in every way.

But later he found out, well... his uncle really didn't love her deeply, but he was just a bad cook...

That's how strong my uncle is. Gu Min just learned how to play. After playing two games, he has already started to beat him...

The custom of playing cards in their family is that if you are familiar with someone, you have to put a white note on it...

Soon, Mu Fengting's face was covered with "white beard"...

"Hahahaha, Dad, why do you always have the same look every year!" Mu Qingnian didn't give her father any face and laughed happily.

Lin Wanru was laughing so hard that she fell backwards. Her grandmother was also beside her, her eyes narrowed with laughter. "Feng Ting, don't ever say that your mom taught you this card skill. Hahahaha, Xiao Min is smarter than you."

Mu Fengting "survived in the cracks", barely showing one eye, and said, "Mom, give me some face, I'm giving in to Xiao Min, Xiao Min, don't you think so!"

Gu Min suppressed his laughter and quickly responded, "Yes, yes, I am not as skilled as others. It is only because of Uncle Mu that I can barely win a few games."

The old lady laughed and scolded, "You are already an adult, and you still dare to 'threaten' my eldest grandson. I will hit your head and make it explode!"

"Mom! Spare me! Wife! Save me!"

The family laughed and played, and the sound of their laughter seemed to break through the confinement of the room and spread to the equally festive and lively streets outside...

--------------

As the night was approaching, the family of five started making dumplings after dinner. Mu Qingnian turned on the TV, and the familiar sounds of the Spring Festival Gala began to be heard. Accompanied by festive music, Mu Fengting was responsible for rolling the dough, Mu Qingnian was responsible for pressing it into round cakes, and Lin Wanru, grandma, and Gu Min, who had just learned how to make it, were responsible for wrapping it. The family divided the work and cooperated with each other, and from time to time, they would be amused by the skits in the Spring Festival Gala.

When Gu Min was wrapping the paper buns, Lin Wanru shouted, "Here comes the money!" Then she brought a bowl of sterilized coins and said, "Come on, there are five people in our family, let's put five coins in and see who will have such good luck!"

Mu Qingnian hurriedly ran to Gu Min, "Brother, brother! Can you help me wrap the coin and make a small mark for me? Please, please!"

Lin Wanru laughed and said, "Niannian, why did you let your brother cheat for you so openly? Good luck, but you have to fight for it yourself~"

"But mom, I didn't get to eat it last year! Brother, please help me!"

Gu Min smiled without saying anything, but his hands were very honest as he pinched a small knot on the dumpling.

Mu Fengting couldn't bear to watch and said, "Hey, Xiao Min, just spoil her..."

Mu Qingnian quickly retorted, "My brother spoils me, isn't that normal? Dad, you are just jealous. You are jealous that I will get the lucky coin!"

Gu Min on the side responded with a smile, "Yes, it should be."
