Crazy! The school beauty's mother works as my secretary!

As night fell and the lights came on, the family set up a card table as usual, and laughter immediately filled the house.

As for Chen Mo, he was leisurely eating grapes, occasionally giving some advice on the card game, looking like a military strategist planning a strategy.

It’s no wonder that as long as Chen Mo stands behind someone, that person will be able to win quickly. As a result, Chen Mo has become a lucky star in everyone’s eyes.

"Hubby, come to me."

"Ah, I just set off a firecracker, husband, come over here quickly!"

"Mo Bao..."

For a while, Chen Mo was overwhelmed by everyone's calls and became the busiest person in the family.

Before he knew it, the clock pointed to around nine o'clock in the evening, and Chen Mo's phone received two messages in succession.

Bai Ruoxi sent a message saying: "We are home, thank you Brother Chen Mo (smile JPG)."

It seems that she really remembered the matter of seniority that Ye Shuhui had talked about with Ye Suwan before. Now she didn't even call him boss or classmate, but just called him brother instead.

Soon after, Li Xiu also sent a message: "Boss, it has been delivered safely."

Chen Mo replied to Li Xiu: "By the way, go to the supermarket at home and ask Sister Yang Tao when she will come. If she comes today, you can bring her to the provincial capital."

Li Xiu replied simply, "OK."

As soon as Chen Mo put away his phone, he heard Li Wei in front of him clapping and cheering excitedly: "Hula Hula, what a match!" Seeing this, Chen Mo subconsciously moved behind Su Yun next to him. He looked so interesting, as if he was upholding the principle of "one person wins, fair and just".

After playing another hand of cards, Chen Mo's cell phone rang. It was Li Xiu calling.

"Boss, Ms. Yang said she hasn't finished her work yet, so she won't come today."

"Well, okay, then you come back first."

"Ok."

After Chen Mo hung up the phone, Ye Shuhui asked with concern, "Isn't your sister-in-law Yang Tao here yet?"

Chen Mo nodded and responded, "Well, it is said that there are too many things."

After hearing this, Ye Shuhui sighed softly, thinking to herself that the old house didn't seem small before, but ever since Chen Mo went to study in Shanghai, the house would seem too spacious if it weren't for Nini and Yang Tao to accompany him.

Unexpectedly, this big house now feels a little crowded with so many people. It is the first time she feels that the house is not big enough.

Fortunately, we have moved to the provincial capital. If we were still in our hometown near the supermarket, there would be no room for so many people and we would probably have to sleep on the floor.

After playing a round of cards, Ye Shuhui dismissed the game. After the game was over, everyone went about their own business and prepared to rest.

Chen Mo came out of Su Yun's room after washing up and happened to see Su Yun walking in with a cup of hot milk.

"Hmm, take a sip." Su Yun brought the milk to Chen Mo's mouth with a smile.

Chen Mo smiled and said, "You drink first."

Su Yun raised her eyebrows and pretended to be angry and asked, "What do you mean? Are you afraid that I will poison you?"

Chen Mo quickly said, "Then I'll drink it." As he said that, he drank half of the cup in one gulp.

Seeing this, Su Yun shouted anxiously: "...Give me back my milk..." Before she could finish her words, Chen Mo hugged her, and the two of them slowly fell on the soft sheets. For a moment, the room was filled with a warm and sweet atmosphere.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, the next day arrived, and that day was New Year’s Eve!

Like in previous years, Ye Shuhui got up early to prepare ingredients for the New Year's Eve dinner. This has been a long-standing tradition in her family.

Chicken, duck, fish and meat are the regular guests on the New Year's Eve dinner table. This time, they also specially added some local specialties that Bai Yuqing and Li Wei like to eat. However, these dishes have to be cooked by Chen Mo. After all, Chen Mo's cooking skills are quite good now. Even Ye Shuhui sighs that she is not as good as him. She even suspects that Su Yun and other girls are "captured" by Chen Mo's good cooking skills.

There were a lot of things to do during the day. After all, this was the last day of the lunar calendar in 06, and it was busy and lively everywhere.

As night falls, the fireworks on the riverside are dazzling, decorating the night sky with incomparable splendor.

The annual Spring Festival Gala is being broadcast on TV. The familiar melody and wonderful programs add a festive atmosphere to this reunion night.

Chen Mo moved the dining table to the living room so that everyone could watch the wonderful Spring Festival Gala while enjoying the delicious New Year's Eve dinner.

At this time, the dining table was already filled with a variety of dishes. The delicious appearance of the dishes made Li Wei and the other greedy cats nearby drool.

Su Yun considerately took out some juice and poured it for everyone.

"Mom, come and sit down." Zhou Ya hurriedly pulled Ye Shuhui, who had finished her work in the kitchen, to sit down.

Everyone raised their cups together. Chen Mo smiled and spoke first:

"I wish you all a Happy New Year!"

"In good health!"

"May all go well with you!"

“Thriving!”

"Cheers~"

Everyone clinked their glasses, the crisp sound echoed in the house, and the atmosphere was warm and beautiful.

"Let's eat." Chen Mo gave the order, and everyone couldn't hold back any longer and started to feast on the food impatiently.

This New Year's Eve dinner, accompanied by the brilliant fireworks blooming on the balcony outside the living room, seemed even more beautiful, as if every bite of the food was infused with the strong flavor of the New Year and full of happiness.

“It’s delicious~”

"It feels so good to celebrate the New Year." Li Wei couldn't help but sigh sincerely. She used to spend the New Year with her mother abroad. The feeling of the New Year was very different from that in China. This year, she once again experienced the lively and lively New Year atmosphere in her memory, and she was so happy.

Everyone was enjoying their meal when a familiar face appeared on the Spring Festival Gala program on TV.

"Isn't this Xia Wanqing?" Zhou Ya recognized her at the first sight, remembering that there were some minor frictions when they first met.

"She even performed on the Spring Festival Gala."

"She has been on the Spring Festival Gala before, but she hadn't been on the Gala for several years before this."

"This time, she became popular again thanks to her karaoke."

Su Yun frowned slightly and looked at Chen Mo unconsciously.

Ye Shuhui, who knew the relationship between Xia Wanqing and Chen Mo, couldn't help but worry for her own boy. But when she looked at Chen Mo, who continued to eat calmly, Ye Shuhui couldn't help but sigh inwardly, it's true that the emperor is not anxious about the eunuchs... Bah, why should she, as a mother, worry about it?

Xia Wanqing was performing in a skit show. She has always been popular with the audience. As soon as she appeared on stage, there was warm applause from the audience.

As each joke was told, laughter and applause were heard one after another.

After Xia Wanqing's show ended, everyone had almost finished eating, so they sat down and continued to watch the Spring Festival Gala attentively.

After all, the time now is different from more than ten years later. Now, after eating the New Year’s Eve dinner, people are still accustomed to staying in front of the TV and continue to enjoy the wonderful programs of the Spring Festival Gala.

The fireworks outside the balcony became more and more lively as time approached midnight. The colorful fireworks bloomed one after another in the night sky, illuminating the entire night sky as bright as day.

The host of the Spring Festival Gala began to read the countdown to the New Year. Everyone was looking forward to the arrival of the New Year, and everyone's face was filled with joy and longing. Li Wei excitedly picked up her phone to record this unforgettable moment.

“5、4、3、2、1，新年快乐！”

Almost at the same time, the fireworks on the riverside outside the balcony seemed to have heard the command, "Bang! Bang! Bang!"

They bloomed one after another, and in an instant, illuminated the entire night sky. The brilliant light made the whole world seem immersed in light and joy.

Su Yun, Zhou Ya, Bai Yuqing and Li Wei sat on Chen Mo's left and right respectively. Li Wei enthusiastically led Ye Shuhui to the middle.

Li Wei held up her phone and happily took selfies, shouting, "Mom, look here, Happy New Year!"

"Happy New Year~" Bai Yuqing also smiled and greeted the camera elegantly.

At this time, Su Qingxue, who was standing aside, seemed like an outsider, standing there silently.

It was Su Yun and Zhou Ya who greeted her warmly.

"I don't need to take a picture." Su Qingxue refused subconsciously.

"Why are you still shy?" Zhou Ya smiled and pulled her into the camera together.

"Happy New Year!" everyone shouted in unison.

At this warm and joyful moment, Ye Shuhui took out a stack of red envelopes like a magician and gave them to everyone one by one.

"Come on, take them all. The New Year's red envelopes are different from the ones I gave you before."

"This is the New Year's money that mom gave you. Even though the amount may be a little small, my thoughts are all in it."

"Thank you, Mom! Then we won't be polite." Everyone took the red envelopes with a smile and responded happily.

Finally, Ye Shuhui handed the red envelope to Su Qingxue and said with a smile: "Qingxue, next year you won't be the only junior."

Su Qingxue: “…”

After hearing this, Su Qingxue was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to respond. She just opened her mouth slightly but no words came out. Her expression was a little strange.
