Reborn not to be a simp, the school beauty's whole family goes crazy

Chen Dong looked as if he were undergoing a sacred trial, awaiting his family's approval.

Chen Jianguo and Li Huazhen exchanged a glance, seeing surprise and relief in each other's eyes, and their faces showed disbelief.

Chen Xiumei, on the other hand, looked proud, her eyes sparkling, as if to say, "I knew my brother would amount to something!"

Chen Xiurong still said with some doubt, "Don't brag, kid. I'll have my friends check your background another day."

"If you dare to lie to me, I'll give you a good spanking when I get back!"

With a grin and a hint of smugness in his voice, Chen Dong said, "Second Sister, I'm a big boss now."

"You can't even get into my company, and you still want to hit me? Dream on!"

The siblings chatted and joked on the phone, a scene reminiscent of their childhood, filled with laughter.

Chen Jianguo, Li Huazhen, and Chen Xiumei couldn't help but laugh out loud at this scene; it was a genuine expression of happiness and contentment.

Finally, Chen Xiurong said some words of concern for her family, her voice gentle and caring: "Dad, Mom, eldest sister, Dongzi, you all need to take good care of yourselves."

"Once things are settled here, I'll go back to see everyone, and we can all have a good family reunion."

Finally, Chen Xiurong reluctantly hung up the phone.

Even after the phone call ended, the joyful laughter of the Chen family still echoed in the living room.

The laughter filled the entire house, spreading the joy of the New Year to every corner.

The festive atmosphere of the New Year is like a warm spring breeze; although it has gradually spread through the streets and alleys, it still lingers in people's hearts.

However, the pace of New Year's greetings followed closely behind the festive atmosphere of the Spring Festival, like a lively relay race.

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, the morning light was just beginning to break, and the sky was just beginning to lighten.

Chen Jianguo and his family got up early from their warm beds.

The family was busy but full of anticipation as they prepared to embark on their trip to visit relatives and friends.

Chen Jianguo was wearing a brand-new Zhongshan suit. The suit was well-tailored and the fabric was smooth, gleaming faintly in the morning light.

He looked energetic and full of vigor.

Li Huazhen, standing beside him, was wearing a festive red cotton-padded jacket, the color of which was as bright as the red plum blossoms in spring.

She smiled broadly, her eyes filled with wonderful anticipation for the New Year.

Chen Xiumei and Chen Dong also put on beautiful new clothes.

Chen Xiumei's new skirt swayed gently with her movements, like a blooming flower.

Chen Dong, dressed in a brand-new suit, looked exceptionally handsome and radiant.

The family first went to the home of Chen Jianguo's elder brother, Chen Jianjun.

As soon as I stepped through that familiar door, I was greeted by a room full of laughter and joy, as if a warm spring breeze had blown into my heart.

The elder brother and sister-in-law were standing warmly at the door to greet us.

The eldest brother, Chen Jianjun, had a bright smile on his face, a smile as warm as the winter sun, making people feel warm inside.

My sister-in-law was all smiles, her eyes full of warmth.

"Happy New Year, brother and sister-in-law!"

Chen Jianguo greeted him with a smile.

"Oh, my brother, my sister, you've finally arrived! Come in, come in!"

The older sister-in-law greeted them warmly.

Everyone sat around a table, which was already covered with all sorts of sunflower seeds and peanuts. They ate the sunflower seeds as they went.

They enthusiastically shared interesting stories from the past year.

"You guys have no idea, I made quite a few embarrassing mistakes at work last year."

"Once I served the wrong portion of the dishes, which almost caused a major disaster and scared me half to death. Fortunately, I caught it in time and corrected it."

Chen Xiumei spoke vividly.

"Haha, you're really careless."

Chen Jianguo jokingly teased his eldest daughter.

"But I learned my lesson later, and now I'm very serious."

Chen Xiumei stuck out her tongue.

Amidst laughter and cheerful conversation, everyone exchanged New Year's greetings.

"Wishing my whole family good health, peace, and good luck in the new year!"

"Big Brother Chen Jianjun said loudly."

"That's right, that's right, and also, I hope our family business will flourish!"

The eldest sister-in-law chimed in.

After leaving Chen Jianjun's house, Chen Jianguo led his family to his second brother Chen Jianqian's house without stopping.

My second brother's courtyard was decorated with a strong festive atmosphere for the New Year.

The bright red lanterns hung high, seemingly a symbol of celebration, their fiery red color particularly dazzling in the sunlight.

Chen Jianqian saw Chen Jianguo's family from afar and immediately went forward with a big smile, warmly taking Chen Jianguo's hand with a face full of joy.

"Brothers, we've been waiting for you! Come on in!"

As Chen Jianqian spoke, he led everyone into the house.

Inside, a sumptuous feast was already prepared, with the pastries neatly arranged on exquisite plates, emitting an enticing aroma.

As soon as everyone entered the house, they were drawn in by the delicious food, chatting and laughing together.

"These pastries are so exquisitely made; they look very appetizing," Chen Meiju praised with a smile.

"These were specially prepared by your second sister-in-law, just so everyone could taste her cooking."

Chen Jianqian said smugly.

After that, they chatted and laughed, making small talk.

After the men of the Chen family finished visiting, it was naturally the women's turn.

At noon on the seventh day of the lunar new year, the sun was shining brightly.

Chen Jianguo and his entourage walked briskly toward the Xu family compound, preparing to pay a New Year's visit to Chen Meiju's second sister's home.

The Xu Family Compound is quaint and elegant, with its vermilion gate and gray tiles seemingly telling the story of the vicissitudes of time.

However, hidden beneath this joyous occasion are some unknown undercurrents.

Chen Meiju was already standing at the door, craning her neck and looking around, her eyes constantly scanning the path leading to the courtyard.

As soon as she saw her younger brother's family get out of the car, she immediately went to greet them with a big smile, her smile full of warmth and joy.

"Jianguo, you've finally arrived! Come in quickly, the food is all ready!"

Chen Meiju said enthusiastically.

Chen Jianguo handed the gift to Chen Meiju and said with a smile, "Second sister, Happy New Year! I brought you something."

"Oh, my brother, you're too kind."

Chen Meiju accepted the gift, her heart filled with gratitude.

Then Chen Meiju took Li Huazhen's hand and said warmly, "Sister-in-law, come in quickly, don't be shy."

"We really need to have a good get-together today; it's been a long time since we've had such a lively gathering."

As the group entered the courtyard, Xu Xiucai was standing there, ready to greet them. Upon seeing his relatives arrive, a smile appeared on his face.

The group sat down in Xu Xiucai's small courtyard.

Because Chen Meiju owns 10% of Chen Dong's chicken farm, her regular salary and year-end bonuses have earned her a considerable amount of money.

The table was laden with fine wines and dishes, their aromas filling the air and making mouths water.
