520 Picking up garbage and marrying into a wealthy family

After finishing a dish and about to bring it out and put it on the table, Lin's father, who was wearing an apron, happened to see Gu Shaoyu picking up the shoes. He was about to nod and give Gu Shaoyu extra points, but he saw him standing there in a daze, dancing and jumping in front of Xiang Huanian and Gu Lingyan, following behind Lin Yunchu.

Father Lin: Still not very stable... Let's see...

Everyone was present and the dishes were almost ready. Xiang Huanian was supported by Gu Lingyan to the dining table, and then he was taken care of very attentively.

Get bowls and chopsticks, wipe hands with paper towels, pour drinks, no, warm water... and help to set the dishes from time to time.

Then, he simply sat down next to Xiang Huanian.

He looked like he would stand up and get whatever Xiang Huanian wanted to eat.

Xiang Huanian: "...not really."

"As for you, it's best not to move too much right now. I'm afraid your skin will crack..."

Gu Lingyan said something serious, which Xiang Huanian deeply doubted and sounded a bit alarmist.

“…Is that so…”

Xiang Huanian couldn't believe it. A mild frostbite, if a little more severe, would cause the skin to crack... right?

"If you don't believe me, ask Dr. Song."

Gu Lingyan threw the question to Dr. Song Renan, the only person present who had the "authority" to make a diagnosis.

Xiang Huanian, including everyone at the table who were "watching the show", turned their attention to Song Renan.

Song Renan: “…”

"...Well, in serious cases, there is such a risk."

After receiving the "death stare" from Gu Lingyan and the "hush money" that was much higher than the medical expenses popping up on his phone, Song Renan went against his conscience to a certain extent and said ambiguous words without a subject and in a vague and ambiguous way.

"Look, Dr. Song has said this, so you should just sit down and tell me what you want to eat. I'll help you get it if it's far away."

"……Oh well."

Xiang Huanian always felt that something was wrong and there was something fishy going on. After hesitating for a moment, she raised her eyes and saw Lin Yunchu and others looking at her with squinting eyes and auntie smiles. Her face immediately turned red. She didn't bother to find out whether what Gu Lingyan and Song Renan said was true. She quickly lowered her head and asked Gu Lingyan to call everyone to eat.

As the oldest person present, Father Lin, after receiving Gu Lingyan's reminder, raised his drink cup and said a toast to the people at the table, including An Anlele who was sitting between Lin Yunchu and Gu Shaoyu:

"Hahaha, come on, come on, let's eat! Sitting at the same table like this is also a kind of fate..."

After a brief opening speech, Lin's father did not dare to say too much because of various accidents. Although everyone working in the kitchen had some cooking skills, they could not catch up with Gu Lingyan.

So, after all the trouble, it was already later than usual to eat. If we waited a little longer, the Spring Festival Gala would start, and everyone was more or less hungry, so Father Lin quickly asked everyone to start eating.

The slight sound of bowls and chopsticks colliding with each other announced the official start of the New Year’s Eve dinner.

This belated New Year's Eve dinner, the dinner that Xiang Huanian couldn't even eat in his hometown... He didn't expect that he could have it at the Lin family, with this group of friends he just met this year, and their friendly parents, to have this reunion dinner that was supposed to be a reunion with blood relatives.

By lowering his head to eat, Xiang Huanian concealed his eyes, tears rolling and threatening to overflow.

But her shoulders twitching constantly as she tried to suppress her tears, and her fingers clenching the chopsticks so tightly that they turned white from trying to control her emotions, were all seen by Gu Lingyan who was sitting next to her.

Gu Lingyan felt bad, but she also knew that Xiang Huanian didn't want others to see her vulnerability at the moment.

So, he just kept a normal expression and discussed with Lin's father and Song Ren'an, who were a little drunk, about the modules that might rise sharply next year. But at the same time, he took out two tissues and placed them next to Xiang Huanian's hands.

Silent tenderness.

It always makes people more moved.

Feeling the other party's gentle consideration, Xiang Huanian couldn't hold back the tears in her eyes any longer. She used the action of blowing her nose to wipe away the tears in her eyes.

It’s not because of one’s own experience, but because of the other person’s care.

In a warm and joyful atmosphere, with An An and Le Le being indulged at the table, this New Year's Eve dinner came to an end with the opening music of the Spring Festival Gala.

Thanks to Lin Yunchu for installing the same dishwasher as Gu Jia's in the kitchen. After dinner, facing a large table full of bowls, plates, and pots, she only needs to pour the kitchen waste into the trash can and leave the rest of the annoying dishwashing process to the dishwasher.

Of course, it would be a pity to throw away some of the leftover food, as it could be saved for the next meal. So Gu Lingyan and others put it in a suitable container, sealed it with a plastic bag, and put it in the refrigerator to avoid waste, which also meant there would be surplus every year.

After dinner, everyone had nothing to do, so they just curled up on the sofa and watched the Spring Festival Gala.

However, some time ago, knowing that her parents were coming to her home for the New Year, Lin Yunchu hurriedly bought playing cards and added a pink fully automatic mahjong table to the table in the living room.

It comes in handy right now.

After all, in recent years, one can increasingly feel that the Spring Festival Gala programs are being overly strictly controlled. They lack a bit of surprise and have more indescribable official meaning. Some programs are somewhat boring.

Under the effect of the warm air conditioner, the carpet is no longer cold to the floor. When you sit on the floor, your butt is warm and you can't feel the coldness of winter at all.

Moreover, unlike ordinary mahjong tables, this mahjong table, which was converted from a large table in the living room, not only has basic functions such as storage and placement of things, but is also much larger, can be opened, and can hold a lot of food.

The first round was started by Lin's father, Gu Shaoyu, Song Ren'an, and Lin Yunchu. The rest of the people were responsible for watching the game, eating snacks, and pouring tea...

Gu Lingyan also prepared some midnight snacks, including French fries, fried chicken, barbecued pork, dumplings, and glutinous rice balls...

The aroma was so fragrant that it almost made the four "soldiers" who were "fighting" at the mahjong table lose their minds.

On the contrary, Xiang Huanian and Lin's mother, who were sitting on the sofa watching the game, had their bellies full. Of course, the midnight snacks that Gu Lingyan prepared for Xiang Huanian were relatively light, mainly salty and fresh, but Xiang Huanian also ate very happily.

Time passed quietly in the "winner takes all" game at the mahjong table, with one side winning and blushing, while the other side lost and turned pale.

Soon, the countdown to the New Year began on TV.

"Five, four, three, two, one! Everybody! Happy New Year!"

"Happy New Year!"

The new year is here.

Everything will usher in a new year and a new life.
