Chapter 12026

Luo Fengtang brought over a large box, took out many of these fireworks from it, and gave one to each of the children present.

The children were overjoyed, and Yang Yongqing pulled his son into his arms, holding his son's little hand that was clutching the fireworks towards the sky, "Don't move, you little rascal, let your old man teach you how to set off fireworks!"

Tuantuan and Yuanyuan were naturally being taught by someone behind the scenes, who taught them the proper way to raise their arms, and that the fireworks should be pointed towards the sky, not towards the opposite wall, and certainly not towards people, and even more so towards their friends.

This isn't something to play with; it's dangerous. If they don't behave, they won't be allowed to play with the other fireworks in the box.

This trick really worked. Whether it was the two little brothers or Xiao Sanzi and his friends, they all obediently held up their fireworks and set them off into the sky.

Instantly, the sky above the Luo family courtyard was as bright as day, with fireworks of all colors illuminating the night sky above, one after another. This attracted many children and adults in the village to stand at their doorways and look up at the night sky over the Luo family's house at the village entrance. Everyone was amazed by the magnificent fireworks.

Especially when those one or two large fireworks, the highlight of the night, came on, it was incredibly breathtaking!
Such a large firework only lasted for five minutes before it was over.

Five minutes, and an ounce and a half of silver is gone.

"Tsk tsk, no wonder your grandma said it was a waste of money, it really is!" Liu had already caught up with Yang Ruoqing and made peace with her.

The so-called 'reconciliation' simply means that after Liu chased after Yang Ruoqing from the old house, she caught up with her and apologized to Yang Ruoqing for what had happened before, explained the situation, and obtained Yang Ruoqing's forgiveness. Then they went to the Luo family's house together to watch the fireworks.

And at that moment, Liangliang also had a firework in his hand, and Luo Wuyou was helping Liangliang hold it up and set it off, making Liangliang giggle.

Hearing Liangliang laugh happily, Liu felt from the bottom of her heart that she had made the right decision to come along.

At this moment, she herself was also sticking close to Yang Ruoqing to watch the fireworks together, and couldn't help but smack her lips and express her thoughts.

"But then again, the feeling of burning money... is damn good!" Liu added.

Hearing Liu's words, Yang Ruoqing smiled.

"There's one more. We'll release it when the gates open at midnight tonight. If that happens afterward..."

"I definitely won't sleep. I have to wait until then to watch the fireworks. I haven't seen enough yet!"

"Okay, then Auntie Si will come and take a look then."

"Absolutely. Qing'er, you guys play first. I'm going inside to talk to your aunt. It's Chinese New Year, I have to go and chat with her."

"Fourth Aunt, I think you're just pretending to chat, but you really want the snacks on my table, don't you?"

"Hey, Qing'er, you're great in every way, except you just love to expose people's thoughts!"

"There's nothing shameful about these thoughts, so why can't we point them out?"

"Hehe, there's nothing shameful about it, it's just a little embarrassing. Oh well, what can I do? I was born with a stomach that's never full!"

Yang Ruoqing raised an eyebrow: "Go ahead, eat whatever you want, as long as your stomach can hold it."

"Oh, Qing'er is so good! Your grandmother is really blind!" Liu praised Yang Ruoqing, not forgetting to put down Tan.

Yang Ruoqing waved her hand, sending her inside.

Yang Huaming was also in the main room, chatting with Luo the blacksmith. Wang Cuilian sat beside him, listening with a smile. The arrival of Liu Shi added even more liveliness to the main room.

After a while, the fireworks display was almost over, and the children went to play other games.

At this moment, Yang Huazhong and his large group came over from the village entrance. Luo Fengtang came up to Yang Ruoqing from behind and said, "Qing'er, get ready, we're going to visit the Sun family for the New Year with your father and the others."

"No need to pack, the things are ready, just pick them up in the main room and we're done. I'll go and call the children."

The children's group setting off fireworks was temporarily disbanded, because not only were the two little brothers going to visit the Sun family for the New Year, but Xiao Sanzi and Yongxiao were also going.

So, Liu Shi took Liangliang into the main room, put him in the fire pit, and started eating snacks. Soon, Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang arrived at the main road in front of the house with their three children and New Year's gifts.

From the gates on both sides, as if by prior arrangement, people from the third and second branches of the family filed out, each carrying New Year's gifts.

They all went together to the Sun family's house to wish Old Sun a Happy New Year.

Xiao Hua, holding Yang Ruoqing's hand, probably fell behind by two steps.

Yang Ruoqing guessed that Xiaohua probably wanted to talk to her about something. "What is it, Hua'er?"

"Sister, this is a New Year's red envelope that Grandpa asked me to bring to you."

"Oh? It wasn't seized? And it was issued as scheduled?"

Yang Ruoqing made a joke, took the red envelope, and first glanced at the number of envelopes.

Well, Old Yang and Madam Tan included Xiao Qiao and Nini's share in the calculation, but they didn't include Zuo Jinling's share.

They haven't included Zuo Jinling yet, and Yang Ruoqing isn't forcing it, since their relationship is there and it can't be forced.

As for the amount of money in the red envelopes...

Yang Ruoqing glanced at it casually. Hmm, there were probably eight copper coins, or eight copper coins, stuffed into each one as a token.

Looking at the thick stack of red envelopes, totaling fifty-six coins, the amount was pitifully small, but it was still a token of appreciation.

According to the old Yang family rules, girls, especially the children of married daughters, were not accustomed to receiving red envelopes.

Xiao Hua briefly told Yang Ruoqing about what happened at the old house after they left.

When Yang Ruoqing heard Jiang Guiling's words, her lips twitched. "A peacock spreading its tail feathers, trying to flatter the horse's leg."

Xiao Hua nodded gently: "They left early, and Da Bao went with them to coax them. Uncle Wu seemed a little unhappy too."

Yang Ruoqing seemed to be deep in thought, recalling the story she had heard from Cao Bamei about the quarrel in the fifth house back in December.

I thought to myself that Da Bao was really unlucky. He had just managed to appease Jiang Guiling a few days ago, and now he had to appease her again.

"Tonight we'll visit the fifth branch of the family for a New Year's greeting, just for a quick look around and then leave. Try not to stay there too long, and the children shouldn't stay there to play either. Trust me," Yang Ruoqing secretly reminded Xiaohua.

Xiaohua nodded: "I understand."

Let's leave the topic aside for now, as everyone has already entered the Sun family's courtyard.

The children were already shouting and running wildly towards the brightly lit, open-doored main room.

Old Sun, Madam Sun, and Xiao Jie's father all came to the door to greet them when they heard the commotion outside.

When they saw the large group of people coming this way, adults, children, men, and women, all chatting and laughing, they were already greeting each other from a distance: "Father-in-law, Happy New Year!"

"Grandpa, Happy New Year!"

"Happy Chinese New Year, Uncle and Aunt!"

We've come to wish you a Happy New Year!

"Good, good, good, everyone, Happy New Year!" Old Sun looked like he'd had a couple of drinks tonight; his face was flushed, and he raised his hands, grinning from ear to ear.

Da Sunshi and Xiao Jie's father were even busier, constantly ushering everyone into the main room...
