After the college entrance examination, life began to follow one's heart

Chapter 313 New Year’s Eve
The next morning, Yu Xinyan came over again.

Her home is actually only half an hour away from here.

Good morning, Auntie!

Ms. Ren was at home today and opened the door for Yu Xinyan.

"Yan Yan came to see Xu Lin?"

"Yes!"

"He's inside the room."

"Oh, I'll go in and find him."

"Honey, I'm here!"

Yu Xinyan appeared behind Xu Lin, her voice lowered.

Right now, Xu Lin is typing his code in front of the computer.

"sit!"

Xu Lin glanced at the bed next to him and gestured for her to sit down.

In fact, the layout of Xu Lin's room is almost the same as his room in his small city.

At least the layout of the bed and computer desk remained unchanged, both being next to each other, giving Yu Xinyan a strong sense of belonging.

Yu Xinyan treated this place as her own bed, taking off her shoes and sitting down.

"What are you doing?"

"Being busy with work is fine."

"Will I affect you?"

"Of course not, I can multitask, I can work and chat with you at the same time."

Just a few minutes later.

Ms. Ren came in.

Xu Lin's place is never closed, so Ms. Ren walked right in.

"Yan Yan, it's almost Chinese New Year! Auntie has a red envelope for you!"

Today is the 3rd, and the 5th is Lunar New Year's Eve. The New Year is just around the corner. Tomorrow morning, Xu Lin will be going back to his hometown with Ms. Ren. Moreover, he is not sure if he will be able to see her after the New Year, so he gave the red envelope in advance.

"Thank you, Auntie. Wishing you prosperity and good health!"

Yu Xinyan accepted the red envelope with both hands.

"Yan Yan, be a good girl!"

Ms. Ren really liked Yu Xinyan more and more the more she looked at her.

A while later, Ms. Ren left Xu Lin's room and continued watching her TV series in the living room.

The morning was quite agonizing for Yu Xinyan, since Ms. Ren was there.

But at noon, Ms. Ren said she wanted to go out.

"Honey, the housekeeper has gone out!"

Yu Xinyan was overjoyed and couldn't wait to sit in Xu Lin's arms.

Xu Lin: "Close the door first."

"Then wait for me for a while."

After closing and locking the door, Yu Xinyan quickly returned and sat directly in Xu Lin's lap.

The girl smelled wonderful. Xu Lin told her to sit down and took a deep breath through her neck.

Yu Xinyan blushed: "It itches!"

"I'll spank you later!" Xu Lin scratched the other person's butt.

The jeans Yu Xinyan wore today are absolutely top-notch in terms of visual appeal alone. Especially for girls with good figures, wearing jeans instantly elevates their look. Xu Lin really likes girls who wear jeans.

However, when it comes to feel, jeans are definitely stretched to the limit, far inferior to thin sweatpants.

Are we going out today?

Where would you like to go for fun?

"Do not want to."

Yu Xinyan shook her head. "I'll stay here today."

"Coincidentally, I don't want to go out either."

Xu Lin stroked her long hair. "Let's have dinner at my house tonight. My mom and I are going home tomorrow morning. The next time we meet will probably be in Jiangdu."

"Then I'll have dinner at your house tonight!"

"Okay, I'll tell my mom. Oh, and it's time for lunch!"

Before he knew it, it was noon, and Xu Lin ordered a sauerkraut fish takeout.

This sauerkraut fish restaurant is located in a shopping mall near his home, less than 200 meters away. After all, Xu Lin's house is located in the most developed part of the provincial capital, and the best shopping mall in the provincial capital is right here.

The pickled fish will be delivered quickly, so it won't spoil due to the long delivery time.

We also ordered some other takeout options.

At noon, the two of them had a hearty meal.

Around 2 PM.

Yu Xinyan was a little tired.

"Honey, I want to sleep."

"Go to sleep!"

I'll sleep in your bed!

"Go to sleep."

"And you? Sleeping?"

"You go to sleep, I'll take care of things."

"Okay, I'll go to sleep now."

Yu Xinyan yawned, pulled the covers up, and fell asleep soon after.

Ten minutes later.

Ms. Ren happened to return.

"Xu Lin, I bought some grapes, do you want some?" Ms. Ren called out to him.

"Wait a minute."

"Where's Yan Yan? Has she left?" Ms. Ren asked as she entered.

"She's sleeping."

At this moment, Ms. Ren also saw Yu Xinyan sleeping on her side, facing Xu Lin.

Immediately, Ms. Ren reached out and grabbed Xu Lin's son.

She lowered her voice and said, "You already have a girlfriend, but there's another girl in your bed."

"Don't panic!"

"She'll have dinner here tonight, so buy more groceries this afternoon."

"You better behave yourself, I'm afraid something might happen!"

Ms. Ren instructed that this was to tell Xu Lin not to do anything reckless.

Xu Lin didn't care.

Yu Xinyan slept for more than an hour.

Around 3 a.m., she opened her eyes, mumbled "husband" in her sleep, and reached out her hands, wanting to hug Xu Lin.

Xu Lin was sitting in a chair right next to the bed.

"woke up?"

"How long have I slept?"

"About one hour and twenty minutes."

"It's been so long! But it feels so comfortable sleeping here!"

Yu Xinyan pressed her nose against Xu Lin's, breathing in the lingering scent of his scent.

Yu Xinyan felt very secure sleeping at Xu Lin's place.

"Honey, when are you leaving tomorrow?"

"In the morning, perhaps."

"It's afternoon for us."

Yu Xinyan felt a pang of disappointment. "I won't be able to see you until after the New Year."

"We'll have time to be together in the future," Xu Lin comforted her.

"Uh-huh!"

Yu Xinyan felt that Xu Lin was getting busier and busier.

However, she wasn't the kind of woman with cerebral palsy. Xu Lin was pursuing his dreams and career, so it was fine for him to be a little busy. She had no reason to complain.

Night fell quickly.

Yu Xinyan is having dinner at Xu Lin's place tonight; Ms. Ren has prepared a very lavish meal.

"Auntie, your cooking is so good!"

Yu Xinyan smiled broadly.

"Eat more if you like it." Ms. Ren squinted her eyes. She had watched Yu Xinyan grow up. Yu Xinyan had actually visited her house quite often before, since the two families lived in the same neighborhood and were very close.

"OK!"

"Xu Lin, drive Yan Yan home later, okay?"

"Row."

The three of them ate together, enjoying each other's company.

Half an hour passed after I finished eating.

It was past eight o'clock when Xu Lin said he would take Yu Xinyan home.

"See you next year, Auntie!"

Yu Xinyan said goodbye to Ms. Ren.

"See you next year, Yan Yan."

After saying goodbye, Xu Lin and Yu Xinyan went downstairs.

It takes half an hour to drive there.

Xu Lin escorted her to the outside of the residential area.

"Let's go back."

"See you next year, honey!"

"See you next year." Xu Lin nodded.

"However, I will video call you on New Year's Eve and during the Spring Festival!"

She playfully kissed Xu Lin on the lips. "Honey, I'm going home!"

"Ah."

Xu Lin watched her enter the residential area, and then drove away.

Nothing happened that night.

The next morning.

Xu Lin drove Ms. Ren back to her hometown.

During the Spring Festival travel rush, the traffic jams are not just ordinary; a journey that normally takes six hours can take ten.

But this is still considered good; in some places, traffic jams can last for more than ten hours.

"Honey, we just got in the car!"

Yu Xinyan sent a message when Xu Lin had just arrived at his hometown; now the three of them have just set off.

"Okay, be careful, there are a lot of cars during the Spring Festival travel rush."

When Xu Lin returned home, his father had already arrived a few days earlier.

It's quite busy before the Lunar New Year; we have to clean, give blessings, and do all sorts of other things.

Some ancient rural customs have been preserved in today's rapidly developing economic society.

“Your dad is such a fool. He said he found a feng shui master to do this year’s fortune telling. It costs 200,000 yuan a time. He’ll be here tomorrow.”

Ms. Ren couldn't hold back any longer and couldn't help but complain to Xu Lin.

"So expensive? In the past, when we returned the New Year's gifts, didn't we ask that guy from the next village to do it? It only cost a few hundred yuan, right?"

"So he's an idiot for spending 200,000 yuan on a woman. I wish he had spent my money, then I could have a legitimate reason to scold him!"

Ms. Ren really couldn't hold it in any longer.

She has never believed in these feudal superstitions and ghosts and gods, so how could she bear it when Xu Cheng spent 200,000 yuan to hire a tutor?

Xu Lin laughed and said, "Two hundred thousand? That's quite a high price for a feng shui master!"

The state cracks down on feudal superstition because the population base is too large, and some people will use feudal superstition to harm others. Moreover, there are bloody lessons to be learned from these cases, especially in the past when the overall level of education was not high.

However, the truly capable people are still supported and are highly sought after; they are all very wealthy.

Because they spend hundreds of thousands or even millions at a time.

Of course, this level is something that ordinary people can't possibly access.

The most skilled group of people are the ones who find the best locations for major projects; they don't just do things randomly.

"What's so great about it? It's all a lie. Only your dad has the money to be a fool!"

Ms. Ren felt a surge of resentment. They were divorced, so of course their money was separated, and Xu Cheng was very wealthy.

Xu Lin doesn't know how rich he is, and since he hasn't asked, Ms. Ren doesn't know if she knows or not.

Anyway, Xu Cheng is very rich.

Ms. Ren added, "And I also heard that this man has six wives! Ha! That's ridiculous!"

Xu Lin was extremely embarrassed, because he now had exactly six women with whom he had actually had sexual relations.

“In modern society, people still have six wives. Your dad says that when people choose a wife, they look at her birth chart and specifically look for a woman who will bring them good fortune. I think your dad has something on his mind. Xu Lin might end up with a stepmother for you in the future!”

"Really? Does that mean I'll get an extra big red envelope in the future?"

"You brat, you want a stepmother, don't you?"

Ms. Ren glared at him.

"I'm kidding!"

"Your dad also said that the fortune teller said that a very important person would come out of our family. He was just bragging to make your dad happy, and your dad, that fool, actually believed it."

Xu Cheng was smoking not far away. He glanced over but didn't say anything.

Ms. Ren happened to be looking over and gave him a sharp glare.

Xu Cheng simply turned around and continued smoking.

Ms. Ren: "This silly boy, although as his mother I also think you are very capable, I think to myself, what kind of great person are you? What kind of nonsense is this? How could I dare to dream of such a thing?"

"That old man seems pretty impressive. He's got some skills; he actually knew I'd become a big shot."

Xu Lin is truly exceptional.

"You're just like your dad, never serious!"

"It's only because Yan Yan isn't here that Mom can chat with her. Talking with the two of you always makes me angry."

Ms. Ren complained to Xu Lin for a long time tonight.

the next day.

5 number.

New Year's Eve is here.

Xu Lin and Chi Linyue and the others sent New Year's Eve greetings.

Everyone was quite busy on New Year's Eve.

Ning Yuhan, in particular, gets busy as soon as she gets up in the morning.

New Year's Eve in the countryside is very lively, especially in the afternoon, when people slaughter chickens to worship gods and put up couplets, etc.

Ning Yuhan's family is one of them.

Of course, Yu Xinyan's family is the same. There are quite a few people in Yu Xinyan's hometown, an entire clan of dozens of people.

Very lively.

The same goes for Xia Xiyao.

Her parents are divorced, and she now lives with her father. Her stepmother treats her very well, and she also lives with her grandparents in their rural hometown, so it's quite lively.

Pei Danqing is in the capital, where her great-grandfather is. Today is New Year's Eve, and many people have returned from all over the world; there are dozens of people.

Pei Danqing sent over photos, sobbing uncontrollably.

However, Xu Lin felt that the kind of liveliness at her house wasn't genuine; it wasn't the kind of liveliness that came from the heart, where people were truly enjoying the arrival of New Year's Eve.

Do wealthy families tend to have less human warmth and hospitality?
Xu Lin pondered this question.

What about Chi Linyue?

Her whole family is now in Qionghai, even Chi Boyan, an official from Beijing, returned to Qionghai today.

Xu Lin asked her, "Is it lively where you are?"

"It's quite lively."

"Xixi said she misses you."

Chi Linyue sent over a video of herself holding Xixi, with the two of them facing the camera.

"Xixi, say hello to your brother!"

"Brother, what are you doing? Xixi is thinking of you."

In the video, the little girl is waving; she's very cute.

Xu Lin: "You're trying to trick me into having a baby, aren't you?"

Chi Linyue: "Of course! *smirks*" (images of people laughing)

Xu Lin chatted with her for a while.

Then came Rong Xiyan.

Rong Xiyan: "Xu Lin, I'm so lonely. I want to go back to your place. My home is no good, and I have no friends here."

"Where are your high school classmates?"

"I'm already a sophomore in college, where would I find any high school classmates? I'm not very familiar with them anymore."

Xu Lin thought about it and agreed. Come to think of it, he and Lei Haolong were still in contact, but they were obviously not as close as they were back in high school.

Moreover, Xu Lin went further and further away, and his social circle expanded.

Come to think of it, he didn't have much of a circle of peers when he was in college.

Xu Lin: "I'll drive over to pick you up on the third day of the Lunar New Year."

"Xu Lin, can we video call?"

"No, please look for Ms. Ren."

"Hmph, then I'll go chat with Mom!"

Before long, Ms. Ren and Ms. Ren started chatting.

Ms. Ren is currently preparing the yellow paper, incense paper, candles, and other items she will need this afternoon.

The old man went to the village's main playground to buy couplets and firecrackers.

At this time, people from the town would drive around selling New Year's items, such as firecrackers and couplets.

Shang Wanjun proactively sent Xu Lin New Year's Eve greetings this morning.

Her house has recently been renovated.

Xu Lin looked at the video of the whole house she sent him. It was decorated in the Song Dynasty style, and the renovation cost more than two million yuan.

Therefore, the overall decoration is very beautiful, full of the elegance of Song Dynasty style decoration.

Of course, the presence of money was also real.

When is check-in?

"It's early March, and I haven't bought many of the interior decorations yet."

Shang Wanjun: "Come to my house then, and join us."

"Ok."

"By the way, have you bought an air purifier yet? Try running it for a month straight and see."

"I bought several of them, and they've been running all the time."

Since the renovation was completed not long ago, this step is naturally necessary. After all, the house is for long-term living, and an air purifier is essential for the initial move-in.

Xu Lin chatted with her for more than ten minutes.

in the afternoon.

The old man said he was going to kill a chicken, and at that moment, the Xu family's New Year's Eve officially began.

In the village, around 2 PM, some people started setting off firecrackers to worship the gods.

Xu Lin's family is alright. Although there are only three people, he has several cousins ​​and his family also has children, so it's quite lively. The three Xu brothers, along with their entire family, number more than twenty people.

When we were putting up the couplets for the old house in the afternoon, more than a dozen people from the three families came, making it a lively occasion.

"In a few years, our house will be just as lively!"

Ms. Ren was quite envious of her uncles' families, especially the children who were jumping around so much.

However, they are not as young as Sui Sui An An and the others. Xu Lin's youngest nephew is already eight years old, and his oldest nephew is thirteen years old. Moreover, his family has tall genes, and his thirteen-year-old nephew is already 1.8 meters tall. Even his twelve-year-old niece is 1.7 meters tall. If it weren't for their childish appearance, they would be the size of adults.

Xu Lin has six nephews and nieces in total.

In short, my uncles' families are thriving.

Xu Lin, who bears the heavy responsibility of ensuring the prosperity of the Xu family, said to Ms. Ren:

"I'll put in extra effort then!"
