In the reborn era, the lucky bag is enjoying the show in the factory area.

The noodles made by Aunt Xi were served quickly. Aunt Xi ate two large bowls, the others each had a small bowl, and Guan Jingtian ate the rest.

After another meal, the family lay down in a row on the kang (a heated brick bed) with great satisfaction, chatting about how Aunt Xi had won over her children over the past few months, and how she had almost been swindled out of money by her eldest son. In the end, Aunt Xi fell asleep amidst laughter.

After Aunt Xi fell asleep, Aunt Xi sat up and looked at her eldest sister with red eyes.

“Your aunt has enjoyed life to the fullest and suffered hardships as well. Let her live the rest of her life happily.”

Guan Jingtian leaned against the wall and peeked at the sleeping Aunt Xi, then whispered, "Mom, don't worry, Bei Zhan and I are here. We definitely won't abandon Aunt."

Xi Beizhan touched Luo Yu's small hand and hummed in response.

Aunt Xi sighed softly, "It's good that you understand. We're all family, why so much hatred? She had no choice in the matter."

The family lay quietly for a while before getting up. There was a ton of work to do at home, so there was no time to rest.

This year's New Year's Eve dinner was much more lavish than last year's, partly to celebrate Aunt Xi's return home, and partly because a new life had been added to the family.

Ten hot dishes and two cold dishes were considered a very lavish meal in those days. Families struggling to make ends meet would only have two or four dishes even during the Lunar New Year, and those would be vegetarian with almost no meat.

It's rare to find a family like the Guans that has everything: chicken, fish, eggs, and meat.

Luo Yu didn't participate in the night watch; she went back to sleep early. When she woke up the next day, she turned to her side and saw Black Bean's dog head.

She reached out and stroked the dog's head, then lazily stretched. "Black Bean, are you eager to wish Mom a Happy New Year as soon as possible? Why are you so eager?"

The black bean indicated it didn't understand, but it could respond.

Hei Dou responded with two soft calls, then lay back down, half-closing his eyes and waiting for Luo Yu to get up.

【Sign in】

[Successful check-in, the reward is as follows:]

1. Ten medical human skeleton models

2. Ten yuan in cash

The reward has been deposited into the host's space. Please check it yourself.

Luo Yu stared at the system screen for a long time, still unable to understand what the system was giving him.

But when she saw the ten human skeletons that had appeared in the space, she was so frightened that she fell off the kang (a heated brick bed).

"Fuck!"

Luo Yu's scream startled Xi Beizhan, who was helping to make dumplings next door. He quickly threw the dumplings aside and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Aunt Xi stared in surprise at the half-finished dumplings on the cutting board. "Where is everyone? What happened?"

Aunt Xi calmly continued wrapping the package, saying, "Didn't you hear Luo Yu shouting? I guess he was scared in his dream. The second son went to see his wife."

Aunt Xi curled her lips and said, "The second son has inherited all the fine traditions of the Xi family."

Aunt Xi Er glanced at Aunt Xi Da, "Do you feel good when your second son argues with his wife every day? So what if he's afraid of his wife? If being afraid of his wife can bring him a good life, then so be it. Outsiders don't know."

"Our little Luo, you have no idea, she gives our second son so much face in public, always humble and subservient, never arguing with him, whatever he says goes."

Aunt Xi leaned closer to Aunt Xi and asked with a smile, "Going home?"

Aunt Xi coughed awkwardly, "We'll talk about it when we get home. Who cares about you when you get home? Alright, alright, you should treat the younger generation as an elder and not pry into their affairs. You'll know how inseparable these two kids are once you get to know them better."

Can she say that your great-nephew pours water for his wife to wash her feet every day?

Can she say that even your big nephew doesn't dare to raise his voice to his wife?

Can she say that she accidentally saw your great-nephew kneeling before your niece-in-law?

No, I absolutely won't tell.

……

Xi Beizhan, who had rushed home, was immediately struck by a severe visual shock upon entering the house, which nearly made him kneel down in fright.

Luo Yu, dressed in thermal underwear, was touching his chin and staring at a skeleton as tall as a person.

She could only see the skull's two eye sockets.

"You're back?"

Luo Yu calmly greeted Xi Beizhan.

Xi Beizhan swallowed hard, sidled up to Luo Yu against the wall, and pulled her into a tight hug.

"Don't be afraid, my husband is here. This thing... my husband... sob sob, my husband has never seen it before..."

Xi Beizhan was so scared he almost cried. He had seen dead people all the time, but he had never seen a skeleton before. He couldn't even find an excuse to comfort his wife.

Luo Yu pushed the person aside with disdain, "Look how scared you are, is it really necessary?"

Goodness, she's already forgotten how scared she was and fell to the ground in such a short time.

"Don't be afraid, it's fake. It's used in medicine. It's been around for a long time abroad, and it's also available in our country. It's just that they're all in medical schools. It's normal that you haven't seen it before. To be honest, I've seen it before, but it's been many years. I was shocked when I saw it again."

She had only seen it once before when she was studying biology in her previous life. So many years have passed, and suddenly ten of these things appeared in her system's inventory. She was incredibly brave not to be scared to death.

Black Bean was still fast asleep on the ground, but its position had changed. It used to be lying in the middle of the room, but now it was lying at Luo Yu's feet. It was probably startled at first, but then it realized that this thing wasn't real, it didn't have bones or meat, and it smelled like plastic. It was relieved, but it was afraid that Luo Yu would be scared, so it moved to a different place.

Upon hearing that it was fake, Xi Beizhan was no longer afraid and even curiously reached out to touch it.

"Is this real? It's quite smooth. Honey, where did you get this?"

Luo Yu shook his head and sighed, "They were here when I woke up this morning, ten of them. I don't know what they're going to do with them!"

She suspected the system had malfunctioned; it probably meant to give her ribs, but instead produced ten human skeletons. It must have been an accident.

Xi Beizhan understood; his wife's Qiankun bag had new contents again.

Xi Beizhan waved his hand, "Wife, you'd better put it away quickly. This thing is quite scary to leave outside. What if Auntie and Second Aunt come over later and you scare them?"

During the Lunar New Year, we mustn't scare people into anything bad; that would be a grave offense.

Luo Yu waved his hand, and the skeleton disappeared. Xi Beizhan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the system malfunction caused something that shouldn't have happened, which made Luo Yu a little depressed, she still happily went to the Guan family's house with Xi Beizhan and ate a hot meal of sauerkraut and pork dumplings.

After breakfast, Luo Yu and Xi Beizhan set off.

Today they have to go out to visit relatives. Although the Xi family doesn't have many relatives, they have many friends. Old Wei has come to the city again this year, so they also have to visit him.

Also, Director Hao, Secretary Chang, Director Kong, and Minister Jin—these are the places they need to visit as well. If they have time today, they plan to visit them all in one day. Tomorrow, they'll have time to go back to the Luo family's place.

I had already told the Luo family that I would have to go back for the holidays. Since I promised, they have to keep their word so as not to cause them any trouble.
