Going home for the New Year during the winter break, I encountered a cool school girl on the high-sp

Chapter 129 My Xiaoxi can play with fireworks by herself

Accompanied by a few crisp and pleasant "bang" sounds, the firecrackers burst into brilliant sparks in the air, leaving behind a puff of green smoke.

"Bang bang~"

"Bang bang~"

The two little guys cheered excitedly along with the sound of firecrackers, with innocent smiles on their faces.

"Fun, fun~" they shouted excitedly, looking at Chen Chen with an unsatisfied look.

"Brother, bang again!"

"Brother, bang!"

They surrounded Chen Chen and cheered.

Want to do it again.

Chen Chen took the two little guys to set off firecrackers without getting tired of it.

I caught a glimpse of Lin Muxi standing not far away, with a gentle smile on her face, watching them play quietly.

Chen Chen waved at her and asked:
"Xiaoxi, do you want to try setting off firecrackers?"

Hearing this, Lin Muxi quickly waved his hands, a trace of timidity on his face: "I don't dare to play this."

Seeing this, Chen Chen pulled out a bunch of colorful flying cannons from the bag in his hand and said with a smile:

"Don't be afraid, you can try this flying cannon. It won't explode until it's high in the sky. It's very safe."

Lin Muxi looked at the colorful flying cannon in Chen Chen's hand, then looked at the two little guys who were having fun, then turned to look at Chen Chen's encouraging eyes, with some hesitation in his eyes.

Chen Chen trotted over, took her hand, and walked out.

"Come on. You won't know if it's fun until you try it."

Chen Chen found a stick of incense from somewhere, lit it skillfully with a lighter, and then inserted the flying cannon firmly into the ground.

He turned around and handed the lit incense to Lin Muxi, "Come, use this to light it. Don't be afraid, I'll take you with me."

Lin Muxi carefully took the incense, followed Chen Chen's instructions, and lit the fuse with trembling hands.

At that moment, she closed her eyes nervously, waiting for the explosion.

"Whoosh-"

With a crisp sound, the flying cannon shot straight into the sky like a gorgeous rainbow, and then bloomed with colorful light in the air.

Boom——

With a bang, it exploded in the air and a small colorful parachute fell.

"Wow, it's so beautiful!" Lin Muxi opened his eyes and shouted in surprise.

"How is it? Is it fun?" Chen Chen asked with a smile.

"Yeah, it's really fun!" Lin Muxi answered excitedly.

"Senior, let's do it again. I'll play by myself." Lin Muxi's eyes flashed with anticipation.

"you sure?"

Lin Muxi gently shook his arm and said in a coquettish tone: "Come on, come on, do it again, okay?"

Chen Chen looked at Lin Muxi's expectant eyes, and a gentle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He coughed lightly and pretended to compromise helplessly:

"Well, since you want to play so much, I'll let you play by yourself for once. But you have to be careful."

As he spoke, he took out another flying cannon from the bag and skillfully stuck it into the ground.

Lin Muxi held the incense excitedly, her little hands trembling slightly, feeling both nervous and expectant.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here with you." Chen Chen whispered to comfort her.

Lin Muxi took a deep breath and mustered up the courage to bring the incense close to the fuse of the flying cannon.

With a "hiss" sound, the fuse burned rapidly, and the flying cannon rushed into the sky with a bright spark, instantly blooming with colorful light in the air.

Another colorful parachute slowly descended in the air.

"Wow, senior, I did it!" Lin Muxi cheered, his face filled with childlike joy. Chen Chen gently touched Lin Muxi's head, "My little Xi is really great, he can even play with fireworks by himself."

Lin Muxi felt a slight warmth coming from above his head, and his heart couldn't help but tremble slightly.

The warm touch evoked a memory deep in her heart.

I remember one Chinese New Year, there was also a person who said to her in the same gentle tone:

"My little brook is so cool, he can even play with fireworks by himself."

The man's voice was even softer, making her feel as if she was the most spoiled child in the world.

However, as she spent more time with Chen Chen, she found that she thought about that person less and less.

Those memories of the past seem to be fading away quietly.

She suddenly realized that she had inadvertently taken the first step to say goodbye to the past, and her heart was filled with anticipation and yearning for a new life.

She didn't know whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.

Just as she was lost in thought, she suddenly felt someone gently tugging at the corner of her clothes.

Lin Muxi lowered her head, and what came into her sight was Chen Ziquan's expectant little face. He was inviting her in a childish voice, "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, let's play together."

Lin Muxi smiled slightly, "Okay."

Outside the yard, the sound of firecrackers and the laughter of adults and children could be heard from time to time.

Until their aunt came over and asked the two little ones to go home to take a bath and change into new clothes, the two little ones still looked reluctant to go back.

"Ziquan and Ziyan, come over and play after you finish your bath. We'll set off more beautiful fireworks in the evening."

"Great!"

"Great!"

The two little guys clapped their hands excitedly, ran to their aunt on the left and right, and headed home.

"Grandma, let's take a shower quickly. We want to see more beautiful fireworks in the evening."

My aunt-in-law responded cheerfully:

"Okay~ Say goodbye to my brother and sister-in-law quickly."

The two little guys turned around and waved happily at Chen Chen and Lin Muxi.
"Goodbye, brother and sister-in-law!"

"Goodbye, brother and sister-in-law!"

Watching the two little guys walking home reluctantly, Chen Chen and Lin Muxi smiled at each other.

"Xiaoxi, Xiaochen, the water is ready, you should go take a bath quickly."

Liu Xiuying came out of the kitchen and shouted to Chen Chen and Lin Muxi.

Chen Chen turned around and explained briefly to Lin Muxi:

"We have a custom here. During the New Year, we have to wash with special herbal water. It means that we can ward off evil spirits in the new year. I will bring the water to the second floor for you to wash, and I will wash on the first floor."

Lin Muxi nodded slightly and responded, "Okay."

Her thoughts couldn't help but drift back to the distant past.

When I was a child, I celebrated the New Year in Yuecheng, and I also had to wash with this herbal water on New Year’s Eve.

However, I haven't washed it since I left there.

At this moment, smelling the familiar scent of herbs in the air, she felt a warm current in her heart, as if she had returned to that innocent time.

The two walked into the house together.

Chen Chen came to the kitchen and carefully scooped the herbs from the steaming pot into the bucket. Then he lifted the bucket steadily and walked to the second floor.

After that, she took some clean clothes and went downstairs again. She scooped a bucket of bath water with a faint herbal fragrance for herself and went into the bathroom on the first floor.

After taking a shower, the New Year’s Eve dinner is ready.

This year's New Year's Eve dinner will be prepared at my fourth uncle's house.

So after taking a shower, Chen Chen took Lin Muxi to his fourth uncle's house.
