Pei Zhili first gave them a piece of squirrel fish he made himself, and also said a few words of blessing to the elders. Mr. and Mrs. Pei were instantly overjoyed and kept praising him for growing up and becoming sensible.

Pei Zhili picked up another piece for Jiang Tingxia and said, "Mom, try it."

Seeing his face full of anticipation, Jiang Tingxia couldn't help but smile, "It looks delicious, thank you, baby."

When she praised him, Pei Zhili felt like a firework suddenly blossomed in his heart, and the fatigue from working in the kitchen for an entire afternoon seemed to be swept away in an instant.

Pei Yanzhou was not willing to be outdone, so he also picked up an abalone from the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall that he made and put it in her bowl. Jiang Tingxia also said thank you, and he immediately became unhappy, "Why don't you call me baby?"

Did he want to hear thank you?

Jiang Tingxia, "..."

He actually showed his affection in front of Mr. Pei and the old lady. The expressions of the two old people were very subtle. She was a little embarrassed and glared at him secretly, "Are you still a child?"

"Why, baby, is it calculated based on age?"

Pei Yanzhou's righteous look immediately made the three children dislike him.

She is such a grown-up, yet she is still competing for favor with her own son. Isn't that too shameless?

"Ahem!" Old Master Pei coughed lightly to ease the awkwardness. "Alright, alright. This year it's rare for our family to be together for the New Year. Come, let's have a toast!"

"Bang!" The wine glass and the juice glass collided, making a crisp sound, as if all the barriers and gaps between the family members had disappeared at this moment.

Although this year's New Year's Eve dinner was not prepared by a chef and the taste was not particularly good, it was the most anticipated and best meal in all these years.

Outside the house, snowflakes are falling and the weather is freezing cold, but inside the house, everyone is happy and warm like spring.

After dinner, the old man and the old lady watched the Spring Festival Gala happily in the living room, while Jiang Suisui dragged Jiang Tingxia out to set off fireworks.

"Wait a moment." Jiang Tingxia called her, first helped her put on her scarf and coat, then asked her to put on her hat, and then went out with her.

Although it was a simple little gesture, Jiang Suisui's nose suddenly felt sore when she looked at her mother's gentle face in front of her, and she had an urge to cry.

Thinking that it was New Year's Eve, I tried my best to hold it back.

It turns out that being loved by mother feels so good.

It was as if she owned the whole world at once, and nothing could make her more satisfied than this.

As Jiang Tingxia's followers, Pei Zhili and Jiang Qixing also came to the courtyard and lit fireworks and fairy wands.

“Bang—bang!”

Fireworks shot up into the night sky and blossomed into gorgeous flowers, filling the night sky with colorful lights.

After finishing a round, Jiang Suisui was still not satisfied and shouted to Pei Zhili, "Brother, give me a few more fairy wands."

Pei Zhili was handing a few fairy wands to Jiang Tingxia. When he heard her words, he raised his eyebrows playfully and said, "Okay, you can talk to me after you catch up."

After saying that, he suddenly ran away for a long distance.

Jiang Suisui pursed his lips, reached out and tugged at Jiang Qixing beside him, asking him for help, "Second brother, look, my eldest brother is bullying me, you have to help me!"

Jiang Qixing looked at Pei Zhili and said calmly, "Give her a few."

"Oh, you want me to give it to you? I'm your elder brother, not your younger brother."

Jiang Suisui gritted his teeth and grabbed Jiang Qixing's hand, "Second brother, come with me to deal with him!"

Jiang Qixing glanced at the hand she was holding. The hand wrapped in the glove was quite small, at least much smaller than his. In the past, he couldn't stand it even if this twin sister touched him.

But now, not only did he not reject it, he was even willing to accompany her to do this kind of stupid thing which he thought was quite boring and childish.

The huge courtyard was filled with the sounds of boys and girls chasing and playing, and the snow was set against the fire in the sky. The scene was not only warm but also beautiful.

Jiang Tingxia stood at the backyard door and watched Jiang Suisui and Jiang Qixing team up to pin Pei Zhili in the snow and throw snowballs at him in revenge. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Suddenly, someone held my hand and put it into the warm coat pocket.

She turned her head and saw Pei Yanzhou's handsome profile.

Jiang Tingxia suddenly remembered that more than ten years ago, she and he celebrated the New Year in the same way, standing in the same place, watching Xiaoli running around with a fairy wand, with his laughter filling the yard.

He stood beside her and habitually put her hand in his pocket, as if afraid that it would be cold.

As time goes by, many things have changed, but many things have never changed.

Pei Yanzhou lowered his eyes to look at her, the light of the fairy wand in her hand reflected in his eyes, and he curled his lips, "Do you remember, when Xiaoli was three years old during the Spring Festival, he happened to have a fever and kept crying. I finally coaxed him to take medicine and go to sleep. You said it was a pity that we couldn't set off fireworks on New Year's Eve."

Jiang Tingxia also laughed, "Of course I remember. You left right after I finished speaking. A little while later, you called me to the courtyard. When I went out, I saw you had prepared a lot of fairy wands."

Reminiscing about the past, Jiang Tingxia smiled until her eyes narrowed into crescents. "That New Year's Eve, we kept lighting fairy wands. Although it wasn't as lively as setting off fireworks, I felt... the atmosphere seemed even better."

In fact, as long as the one you love is by your side, the form is not that important.

Pei Yanzhou's smile deepened, and he held her hand tightly. "The atmosphere this year is exceptionally good, and it needs to be lively."

"Hmm?" Jiang Tingxia seemed to feel that there was something behind his words. Before she could ask, she suddenly heard a "bang!" and a huge and dazzling firework bloomed in the night sky.

Coincidentally, the place where she was standing was the best viewing spot, where she could take in the fireworks!

"Bang! Boom!"

Bunch of fireworks bloomed one after another, and the brilliant colors intertwined, as if they could light up the night sky. It was like a visual feast, and the exclamations of the crowd could be heard from afar.

The three children had also returned by now, and together they looked up at the grand fireworks display. Jiang Suisui couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow! So beautiful!"

Jiang Tingxia smiled, hugged her to his side, and asked Pei Zhili and Jiang Qixing to stand closer.

A family should be in good order.

This fireworks show, which attracted the attention of the whole city, lasted for a full fifteen minutes. When the last few huge fireworks lit up the night sky, they actually formed the words "Happy New Year" and "Love You Forever", and then poured down like a river of stars.

Jiang Tingxia's heart suddenly moved, and she turned to look at Pei Yanzhou beside her, "A Yan, this couldn't be something you prepared, could it be?"

Pei Yanzhou raised his eyebrows and pinched her palm quietly, "You just realized it? This is specially prepared for you."

I see, no wonder this is the best viewing spot.

"You didn't even tell me." Does this count as a confession in front of the whole city?

It's quite embarrassing.

"I want to give you a surprise." Pei Yanzhou looked at her with a deeper and gentler look in his eyes. "Do you like it?"
