As the Chinese New Year draws closer, the streets and alleys of Beijing are gradually filled with a festive and peaceful atmosphere.

On the road, in addition to the daily traffic jams, the lampposts on both sides are hung with big red Chinese knots, and the trees are also hung with red lanterns.

"No matter if there are restrictions in the real world, there are no restrictions here. Even if Jesus comes, there will be no restrictions, I say! Mua mua (^3^)"

Supermarkets and stores of all sizes have been decorated with festive elements, and families can be seen everywhere shopping for New Year's goods.

It seems that every Chinese person is looking forward to the arrival of this festival.

It’s not just because the traditional Chinese New Year has been included in the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.

It is also because the New Year means reunion, hope, and saying goodbye to all the bad things in the past year and welcoming the beginning of a new year with the best attitude.

New Year's Eve.

Luo Yunyan stood in the snow with her hands in her pockets, looking at the Luo family's old house in front of her which was decorated with joy, and a gentle smile gradually appeared in the corners of her eyes.

Suddenly she recalled half a year ago when the old man called her back to Wujizhou for no reason and threw a stack of information in front of her, "Take a look at this first."

Luo Yunyan opened the folder with a look of suspicion. It was full of reports about the Luo family in Jing City, Huaguo, and their search for their youngest daughter over the years. The most recent article was published last month.

There was also a frontal photo of a little girl inside. She recognized the little girl as herself at a glance because there was a mirror in that place before.

Her only entertainment at that time was to look through the mirror every day and see the eyes of the person in the mirror, which slowly changed from fear to numbness, and finally to indifference.

While she was flipping through the documents, the old man continued to talk to himself, "I know that because of the bad experiences they had in the past, you have always been a little shy about family relationships."

"But everyone's family is different, and yours hasn't given up looking for you yet. Perhaps you could go back and see them."

Luo Yunyan even teased him at the time, "What do you mean? Are you planning to change the heir? Am I an outcast?"

For the first time, the old man did not argue with her, but instead said earnestly,

"I just hope you can stop shutting yourself off and try to feel the love that belongs to you. The love and care they can give you is something none of us can give you."

"Of course, Wujizhou will always be your home. As for the position of heir, I spent so much effort to train you, and it can only be you. Don't even think about escaping!"

Luo Yunyan was silent for a long time. Yes, with her ability, wouldn’t it be easy for her to find out her own background?

But every time she had the thought of looking for her family, she would think of Jiang Yingyue and Jiang Ziang who were sold by their scumbag stepmother, Jiang Yining who was sold by her biological parents, and all the other children who were sold to that place before.

Each and every one of these things was like a slap in the face, instantly waking her up.

Sometimes she couldn't help but wonder in her heart whether it was because she was a girl, or an illegitimate daughter who could not be seen in public, her arrival was not welcomed or expected by her family, so she was sold to that dark hell.

She would even sometimes feel fortunate that she had lost her memories of those years, because if she had really been abandoned or sold, there would be one less thing in the world that could make her sad compared to other people.

But this time, whether she was moved by the old man's words or the contents of the folder, she agreed to return to China to recognize her relatives, but the time was originally set after she turned 20.

As a result, the black-hearted old man threatened her with leaving her in Wujizhou to train new people, and directly packed her up and sent her on a flight to Beijing the next day.

Now she was glad that she didn't run away and choose to go to N continent. It allowed her to understand in the past six months that the love of blood relatives could be so silent yet passionate. It also allowed her to pick up a handsome child husband for free.

Her memories before the age of four are long gone, so this is actually her first Spring Festival spent with her family and the two most important friends in her life.

This year will always be different for her.

Coming back to her senses, Luo Yunyan pulled her cotton coat closer and walked into the building.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw the elders sitting around the dining table making dumplings.

Seeing her come in, Grandma Luo called out, "Nannan, come in. Come here quickly. Grandma will teach you how to make dumplings."

"I'm coming." Luo Yunyan felt warm in her heart, took off her coat and went to wash her hands.

Walking to the dining table, Su Wanru touched her hands and frowned slightly, "How come my hands are still so cold even after washing them with hot water?"

Hearing this, the aunt also looked concerned, "You should wear more clothes when going out. Girls should not catch cold easily, otherwise you will easily get a lot of problems in the future."

"Okay, I know. I just wanted to see if the snow outside was deep enough so I could build a snowman."

The Luo family always cooks together during the New Year. The servants of the old house had gone on holiday three days ago, so the snow outside the door had not been cleared in the past few days and had accumulated to a considerable thickness.

Those silly brothers completely regressed to their roots when they returned to the old house and even wanted to have a snowball fight.

Grandpa Luo made the final decision. "Building a snowman is as simple as that. Ask your brothers to build one for you. If that doesn't work, there's still your father and uncle. Don't catch a cold yourself. We've raised these grown men for so long, we can't just let them eat for free without working."

A group of Luo family men who only eat and do not work: ...6, have you forgotten your gender?

"Okay, I will definitely do my best to make use of them." Luo Yunyan looked at her father and uncle beside her with a little pity in her eyes, and answered obediently.

"We're back!" Everyone walked in carrying large and small bags and several large boxes.

The ban on setting off fireworks and firecrackers was lifted during this year's Spring Festival, so they went out together to purchase supplies.

I've been holding it in for so many years. Every time I wanted to set off firecrackers, I had to apply for one, or I had to go to other cities to watch fireworks shows. Finally, I can set off firecrackers to my heart's content right at my doorstep.

After Luo Yunjin changed his shoes, he rushed to Luo Yunyan's side, "Sister, I bought you a lot of fairy wands and a lot of handheld fireworks!!"

"Really? Thank you, Xiaojin." Luo Yunyan was a little surprised. She had never played with a fairy wand before.

In the past, the fireworks we played with in Wujizhou were all large-scale, and we just had to light them and that was it.

Luo Yunjin proudly brushed her hair. "Humph, I told you that you would like playing with fairy wands more. Sister Ningning even insisted that you would like Gatling fireworks. Those things are so heavy, I can just set them off for you to see!"

Luo Yunyan's smile froze for a moment. Actually... she had played with Gatling gun before and really liked it... but she decided not to say it out loud.
