The remaining jade pendants were given to each female in the family.

He Ximei likes melon.

Mrs. He likes green beans.

The peace locket worn by He Zizhen.

The little rice cake is wearing peanuts around his neck.

Yunjin also wore peanuts, the same style for mother and daughter, one big peanut and one small peanut, representing good luck peanuts.

They were all carved by He Tingchuan himself, and Yunjin and Xiaoniangao both like them very much.

Only Guanyin and Maitreya Buddha were left, which Yunjin collected and would wear out when he had the chance.

New Year's Eve was very sumptuous. Everyone worked together to make a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner. He Ximei had to go back to have dinner with her parents-in-law, and had lunch here at noon before leaving.

In the evening we watch the news together, stay up late and play games.

Xiao Nian Gao received a lot of red envelopes.

Yun Jin also prepared a red envelope, but He Ziqian already had a job and didn't want the red envelope.

He Zizhen was still young, and she happily thanked the red envelope.

Yunjin didn’t get a red envelope this year, so He’s mother gave Xiao Nian Gao a big red envelope.

It’s the same as He Zizhen’s, ten yuan.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Yun Jin was woken up by firecrackers early in the morning and heard Xiao Doubao's cry. She got up and saw that Xiao Doubao, He Tingchuan, and Xiao Nian Gao, father and son, were playing snowball fights, each chasing He Tingchuan.

The little bun protected his little master and shouted at He Tingchuan.

After watching for a while upstairs, Yun Jin couldn't sleep, so she packed up and went downstairs.

When Xiao Nian Gao saw her, he excitedly shouted, "Happy New Year, Mom! Come on, let's have a snowball fight together!"

"Are we going ice skating later?" Yun Jin touched Xiao Nian Gao's little hand. It was warm, so there was no need to worry about it catching a cold.

"Go." He Tingchuan nodded.

Yun Jin went to call He Zizhen. After having a simple breakfast, she took Xiao Nian Gao to visit every household in the compound to wish them a happy new year. She received many red envelopes, which made Xiao Nian Gao very happy.

"Mom, please keep the red envelope and use it to buy you delicious food and beautiful clothes!" Little Nian Gao was full of filial piety.

Yun Jin's face lit up with joy: "Okay, buy some rice cakes too!"

"I also want to buy it for Dad!" Little Nian Gao knows how to coax his father.

He Tingchuan's doting face.

He's mother asked, "What about me?"

"Buy some for grandma too!" This time, without He's father asking, Xiao Nian Gao started to offer everything: "Buy some for grandpa, buy some for aunt, buy some for my auntie, buy some for my brothers and sisters!"

Finally, he held the little bean bun in his arms and said, "Buy some for the bean bun too!"

They started feeding her all kinds of sweet talk on the first day of the Lunar New Year, and He Mama and the others couldn't handle it at all.

As soon as they left, He's father took out his own private money and said, "They have a lot of expenses raising children. Give this money to Ayun and let her buy some delicious food for Xiao Nian Gao."

Mother He: “…”

I didn't expect that the old man still had some private money.

After counting, I found that there was still more than 30 yuan.

If it weren’t for Xiao Nian Gao, He’s mother wouldn’t have known that the old man who managed her monthly pension actually had a secret stash of funds.

Sure enough, men are not that honest when they get older.

Mr. He ignored the old woman's subtle look. He had worked hard all his life, and after retirement, couldn't he earn some extra money as pocket money?

These were all the winnings he and his old friends earned from playing chess, pennies saved, and now they are all here.

If the little rice cakes weren’t so cute, he wouldn’t be willing to take them out!

He Tingchuan and his friends arrived at the ice rink. Every year on the first day of the Lunar New Year, many people come out to skate. This time, they didn't encounter any ignorant hooligans like last year, mainly because He Tingchuan was always on guard.

He goes wherever his wife goes, and doesn't give anyone else a chance.

When those people saw He Tingchuan, who was tall and strong and looked like someone who was not to be trifled with, they did not dare to covet Yun Jin.

The mother and daughter had a lot of fun at the skating rink. He Zizhen also met her classmates, greeted them and played with them.

Yun Jin didn't expect to see He Ziqian and a girl wearing a red scarf coming to play. After looking carefully, she found that it was not Feng Qianqian.

After meeting them, He Ziqian said openly: "This is my girlfriend Sun Sijia."

Yun Jin had an impression of this name. She was not He Ziqian's later wife in the original novel. She didn't expect that they were together now.

Yes, without the reborn Feng Qianqian, he will definitely return to the original plot.

Yun Jin didn't want to get involved in He Ziqian's love life. She smiled faintly and said, "I'm He Ziqian's aunt. Come to my house when you have time."

Sun Sijia nodded shyly: "Hello, little aunt!"

After chatting for a while, Yun Jin said she wanted to keep an eye on the child and went to look for Xiao Nian Gao.

Sun Sijia looked at Yun Jin's departing figure and said to He Ziqian, "This is the aunt from the countryside you mentioned. She doesn't look like a country girl at all. She's so beautiful."

He Ziqian smiled and said, "If she wasn't pretty, my uncle wouldn't agree. She also has a good brother, otherwise..."

He didn't say anything else.

Sun Sijia could tell that He Ziqian didn't think much of this young aunt.

Maybe I think they are from the countryside.

Sun Sijia secretly felt lucky that she was from the local area. Although she was not as good as the children from the big courtyards, she was still from Beijing, not from the countryside where people looked down on her.

Thinking of something, Sun Sijia asked: "When will you take me to meet your parents? We have been dating for a year."

He Ziqian said perfunctorily: "Let's talk about it after the New Year. We are still young anyway. What are you afraid of? How can I not want you?"

Sun Sijia was afraid of this and wanted to settle the marriage as soon as possible. After all, the man was from a wealthy family and was much better than her who came from a slum.

If I marry He Ziqian, I can live in a small villa.

She hasn't lived there yet.

Now I am squeezed into a ten-square-meter place with my family. It is cold and crowded. Unlike the compound, there is heating. In the cold winter, with temperatures of minus twenty degrees Celsius, the houses in their compound are warm, like spring.

That girl from the countryside can marry his uncle who is a deputy brigadier general. What's the difference between him and a native of Beijing?

Yun Jin didn’t know that she was being looked down upon. Even if she knew, she wouldn’t be angry. After all, those people were only jealous.

She has earned what she has today.

You know, her life in this world is not bad. She has no worries about food and clothing. She has a company and savings. The annual interest is enough for an ordinary person to earn for one or two years. But when she came here, she was almost killed by the heroine of the novel.

Fortunately, she persisted and successfully broke free from the experience of the plot master, turning the original role of cannon fodder into the current grassroots heroine.

Only she knows how difficult it is.

After playing tired, I ate some noodles with soybean paste outside, drank a bowl of mutton soup to warm my body, and then went back to take a nap.

When I woke up, it was time for dinner.

Xiao Nian Gao was taken care of by He's mother and fed. Yun Jin was happy and relaxed, eating and drinking, and helping to clean up. He Tingchuan rolled up his sleeves to wash the dishes, He's wife swept the floor, and He's brother and his son were sent out to sweep the snow.

The next few days were all about eating and drinking.

He Ximei came back with the children and had a meal together.

The children were very happy when Yun Jin gave out the red envelopes she had prepared.

By the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, everyone had basically returned to work. Brother He and his colleagues had to go to work, and He Zizhen didn't have to go to school, so she could go out and play with Yun Jin and her family of three.

He Tingchuan also arranged a car to take He's father, He's mother, his wife and daughter, as well as He Zizhen to take a hot spring bath.

Mr. He rarely goes out. When he heard that his youngest son wanted to take him to the hot spring, he did not refuse. He even rummaged through the drawers at home to prepare his own clothes.

When Mother He saw him like this, she knew that the old man was very satisfied with the itinerary.

The old couple are old and although they don’t like to go out, if their daughter is willing to take them with her, they are also willing to go out with their children!
