On New Year's Eve, Qi Yuanyi and Lin Qingxiu got up early in the morning.

Although they don't need to prepare New Year's Eve dinner, they still have to fry some New Year's goods. After all, there will always be people coming to their house, not to mention they have to treat people to a meal.

The next thing is the general cleaning. The house must be made spotless. However, for this matter, the two of them unanimously decided to buy cleaning talismans in the mall, which is convenient and saves effort.

Despite this, we still need to take out the quilts from the cupboard and dry them in the sun while the sun is shining, so that they can be used as a blanket for guests when they come.

After a busy morning, Qi Yuanyi and Lin Qingxiu had a simple lunch and packed up the New Year gifts they planned to give to Uncle Qi and others in the evening.

Wrap various scented teas in oil paper, take two cans of previously brewed fruit wine, pick a few boxes of strawberries and cherries, and put them in two large bottles of milk in the space...

In short, they took out almost all the good stuff, and the final result was that the two of them looked at each other in bewilderment at the mountain of bamboo baskets.

"Can we move over there with just the two of us?" Lin Qingxiu sat down on the stool and couldn't help but hold his chin and complain.

Sitting next to him on the other side, Qi Yuanyi was a little worried. "How about driving? Even though the distance isn't far, there are so many things."

"Are you sure we won't be scolded for bringing so many gifts..." Lin Qingxiu's tone was hesitant. Thinking of the nagging of the Qi family before, he couldn't help but shudder.

When the other party said that, Qi Yuanyi also remembered that he had sent a little too much before. Uncle Qi and others surrounded them one after another and read for a full quarter of an hour.

Taking a deep breath, he hesitated and said, "It should be okay. I've been sent there so many times, I should be used to it."

Their eyes met, and both saw uncertainty in each other's gazes.

After a long silence, Qi Yuanyi gave up and said, "Never mind. Let them talk. It'll only take a moment. Just let it go. Let it go in one ear and out the other!"

Since he said so, Lin Qingxiu didn't object. The two of them leaned against each other and basked in the sun.

Xiao Ba lay under the eaves, wagging his tail leisurely, looking quite happy.

……

The atmosphere in the yard was so harmonious that when Qi Hao and Su Zi came in, they didn't notice the pile of New Year gifts at first.

Only after I got closer and glanced to the side did I notice the bamboo baskets that were almost overflowing.

"Are you planning to move? This is a bit... too much." Su Zi's eyelids twitched involuntarily, and he had a bad feeling.

Qi Yuanyi, who was about to say hello to them, immediately closed his mouth and turned his head to look at the charming Samoyed, but his eyes were actually wandering.

Lin Qingxiu remained silent, looking back and forth, looking very busy.

Su Zi and Qi Hao understood a lot from their actions, but they didn't expose them. After all, this was not the first time this had happened.

"Okay, if we have to bring all these to my uncle and the others, then we should quickly move them to the car. It's impossible to walk." Qi Hao was the first to bend down, picked up a bamboo basket and walked out.

Since everyone was helping, Qi Yuanyi and Lin Qingxiu naturally couldn't be lazy. They each picked up a bamboo basket and carried it out at the top of their lungs.

Every time they worked, the two of them fully felt the importance of cultivation and became much stronger!

A group of four people came and went, and in less than half an hour they had packed everything.

……

"Brother Hao, Brother Zi, please sit down and rest for a while." Lin Qingxiu waved his hand and picked up the teapot to pour water for them.

After such a long time, the temperature of the tea was just right, so Qi Hao and the others took a breath and picked up the cup and drank most of it.

As soon as I got home, I started working without doing anything else. It would be strange if I wasn't thirsty.

"Let's set off soon. It's 3 o'clock in the afternoon now. There should be a lot of things to prepare for the New Year's Eve dinner. Go early to help with the work!" Qi Hao reminded after drinking the remaining tea in big gulps.

The other three people who were drinking water nodded in agreement and quickened their pace.

After resting for about five minutes, everyone stood up at the same time, some drove and some locked the door.

Outside Uncle Qi's yard.

As soon as the car stopped, several elders who heard the noise came out to greet us.

Walking in front was my eldest aunt, followed closely by my second aunt, and at the very end were Grandma Qi and her eldest cousin who was supporting her.

Seeing them, the four of them quickly opened the door and got out of the car.

"Grandma, aunt..., why are you all out? Just wait for us inside." Qi Yuanyi stood over and was pulled by Grandma Qi.

On the other side, Lin Qingxiu and Su Zi were held by their eldest aunt and second aunt respectively, who wanted to pull them into the house without saying a word.

Before she could speak, they moved a distance away. Qi Yuanyi hurriedly said, "Grandma... don't be so anxious, there are still things in the car!"

Hearing his words, the eldest aunt raised her eyebrows, "You brought it again? I told you not to bring anything when you come to eat, otherwise I will let your uncle punish you."

Smiling at her flatteringly, Qi Yuanyi said coquettishly: "I don't believe it. My aunt loves me the most. Besides, these are all gifts from others. They don't cost any money."

Unable to convince him, the aunt could only give up and said, "Since you have brought everything, let's move in quickly."

So everyone turned around and went back to the car, ready to get to work.

Although they didn't intend to make a fuss about it anymore, they were still shocked when they saw the bamboo baskets stuffed in the trunk.

They stared blankly at the four young men moving around, speechless.

When they came to their senses, Qi Yuanyi and Qi Hao had already cleaned up and went into the kitchen, leaving Lin Qingxiu and Su Zi to chat with them.

As six o'clock approached, various dishes were served one after another, filling the entire table.

In Yu Shui Village, laughter and joy were heard, accompanied by the brief sound of firecrackers, and the New Year atmosphere suddenly became lively.

They invited each other to sit down and everyone picked up their favorite food.

The Qi family’s New Year’s Eve dinner is never complicated, and there is no required speech. They just sit down and start eating without any requirements.

Therefore, Lin Qingxiu was quite satisfied with the meal: the sweet and sour juicy pork ribs with plums, the soft and chewy stewed beef brisket with radish, and the smooth and tasty steamed egg with minced meat...

Each one of them tickled his taste buds, and he couldn't help but eat two large bowls of rice, his stomach slightly bulging.

Qi Yuanyi was also very satisfied. While picking up his favorite spicy dishes, he also took care of Lin Qingxiu and Xiao Ba who were eating so hard that they could not even lift their heads.

In the end, everyone present was full and rubbed their stomachs, feeling drowsy.

Sure enough, people feel sleepy after eating, especially the elderly, who have already squinted their eyes and dozed off.

Seeing that everyone was like this, Qi Yuanyi directed his cousins ​​to clean up the dishes and the table, and he took out the hawthorn jam he had brought earlier and made tea for the rest of the people.

Facts have proved that hawthorn has a very good effect in helping digestion.

After about half a cup, everyone felt a little better and started talking about everything that happened this year.

……

Time passed quickly, and at around 9 o'clock, everyone began to disperse and go home.

*

After returning home, Qi Yuanyi and Lin Qingxiu did nothing else. After washing up, they hugged each other and fell asleep. On the last day of the year, they still had sweet dreams.
