In the afternoon, the weather was just right, the sun was shining outside, but it was still a little cold.

Yang Mi and Chen Le sat in the yard, basking in the sun and chatting.

"Old Chen, it's all your fault. Who told you to be dishonest yesterday?" Yang Mi said with a slightly red face.

Although she was not interviewed, she still felt very embarrassed.

"Hey, how can you blame me? How could I know that the sound insulation of this wall is so poor? They can hear it across the living room." Chen Le said, looking at Yang Mi with a playful look.

Seeing this, Yang Mi's face suddenly turned red, and she gritted her teeth and said, "What? Are you still blaming me?"

Seeing this, Chen Le hurriedly shook his head, "No, I'm wrong, I'll be gentler next time."

"Go, do you still want a next time? Next time, you should wait until you return to Yanjing." Yang Mi said coquettishly.

Chen Le frowned when he heard it and said, "No, it's too long."

"Then you still want to be interviewed?"

"It's okay to be interviewed!"

"Get lost!"

The two quarreled.

In the house, Chen's mother heard the quarrel and smiled like an aunt.

Time quickly came to New Year's Eve.

In the morning, Chen's father took the Spring Festival couplets and pulled Chen Le to paste them.

Yang Mi also got up and watched from the side.

Seeing Chen Le climb up the ladder, Yang Mi said worriedly, "Old Chen, be careful."

Hearing this, Chen Le turned back and grinned, "Don't worry, I will be careful."

After that, he pasted the couplets on the left and right sides, and took Yang Mi to paste the red couplets on the door.

Then came the upside-down blessing on the door.

At this time, Chen's mother and the little aunt were preparing the dishes for the evening.

The dinner on New Year's Eve was very sumptuous, especially since Yang Mi came. Chen's mother put a lot of thought into giving Yang Mi a satisfying New Year's Eve.

She even asked Yang Mi about her taste preferences.

As a result, the meals these days were all biased towards Yang Mi's taste. Although they were delicious, the taste was a little bland.

On the other hand, after Chen Le posted the couplets, he had nothing to do.

They didn't have to worry about anything else, just wait for the night to come.

At this time, a motorcycle sounded not far from home.

Chen Le looked over and saw that it was his uncle and Chen Nini.

The motorcycle was parked steadily at the door.

Chen Nini got off the car and saw Yang Mi, and ran over to her with a hop.

"Hello, sister-in-law!" Chen Nini looked at Yang Mi very happily. After knowing that Yang Mi was the Yang Mi on TV a few days ago, she returned home and was so excited that she couldn't sleep all night.

She wanted to come to see Yang Mi, but her father didn't bring her along, fearing that she would disturb others.

Now on New Year's Eve, she can finally come to see Yang Mi.

Yang Mi smiled when she heard what Chen Nini said.

"Nini! Hello, you are so cute!" Yang Mi praised with a smile.

Chen Nini was very happy to hear Yang Mi's praise.

"Sister-in-law, can you give me an autograph? Many of my classmates like you." Chen Nini said excitedly.

Yang Mi smiled and nodded, "Sure!"

Chen Nini heard what Yang Mi said and immediately took out a few postcards and a pen from her small bag.

Obviously, she came prepared.

Then she handed the postcards and pen to Yang Mi.

Yang Mi took the pen and wrote her signature on it.

Chen Nini, who got the signature, jumped up excitedly with the signed postcard.

Seeing her so happy, Yang Mi couldn't help but smile.

Time soon came to evening, and Yang Mi heard the sound of firecrackers.

"Xiao Le, go to the ancestral hall downstairs with your dad to burn some incense." Chen's mother called out.

Yang Mi looked at Chen Le with some confusion.

Chen Le smiled and explained: "This is our custom. We usually burn incense and worship our ancestors during the Chinese New Year."

"Isn't it Qingming Festival that we worship our ancestors?" Yang Mi asked in confusion.

"Qingming Festival is for the elders and relatives of our own lineage, and the New Year is for the ancestors of the clan." Chen Le continued to explain.

"So that's it!" Yang Mi nodded, indicating that she understood.

Then, Chen Le followed Chen's father to carry chickens, ducks and other offerings as well as incense and firecrackers to the Chen Clan Ancestral Hall.

The atmosphere of this custom is still very strong now. At this time of year, smelling the smell of incense and firecrackers means the Chinese New Year.

But later, this atmosphere became weaker and weaker, as if the flavor of the New Year was gradually fading away.

After returning from the ancestral hall, it was not too early, almost six o'clock.

Chen Le and Chen's father returned home, and grandparents also arrived.

The whole family sat together.

Yang Mi looked at so many people sitting together, and felt very warm in her heart. The New Year atmosphere here was even stronger than her home.

Just as everyone was eating, suddenly outsideSuddenly, the sound of fireworks came.

Colorful lights were reflected from outside into the house.

"Let's go, let's watch the fireworks!" Chen Le pulled Yang Mi and walked to the yard.

"Old Chen, is it not good for us to come out with bowls like this?" Yang Mi looked at Chen Le and felt that it was not good. After all, the elders were still eating inside, and they ran out.

"It's okay, I did the same when I was a child." Chen Le said with a smile.

The main reason was that he pulled Yang Mi with him, so he didn't worry about being criticized. If he ran out alone, he would definitely be criticized.

"Watch the fireworks!" Chen Le shouted.

Yang Mi looked up and saw the sky full of fireworks rain.

There were still more fireworks at this time than a few years later. Basically, every household would set off fireworks.

After dinner, it was more than eight o'clock.

The two went upstairs.

The Spring Festival Gala was on TV, but this year's Spring Festival Gala did not have Uncle Zhao, so Chen Le had no desire to watch it.

Chen's mother brought a new set of clothes and handed it to Yang Mi, which surprised Yang Mi.

"This is what my mother bought for you. She knew you would come to our house for the New Year, so she asked me in advance what size clothes you wear." Chen Le explained with a smile.

"Okay." Yang Mi accepted it happily.

After changing into new clothes, Chen's mother handed Yang Mi a red envelope.

Yang Mi was surprised again, and she looked at Chen Le.

Chen Le touched his nose and said, "Just take it. I don't have a red envelope yet. I still have to give red envelopes to my parents."

After all, who asked him to go out to work.

Hearing this, Yang Mi took the red envelope and showed off in front of Chen Le.

Chen Le wanted to snatch the red envelope because he saw that the red envelope in Yang Mi's hand was not small, and it must have contained a lot of it.

Just as he was thinking about this, his phone rang.

It was Wang Baoqiang who called.

"Boss, I'm here to wish you a happy new year!" Wang Baoqiang's unique voice sounded.

"Baoqiang, Happy New Year!" Chen Le was a little surprised that Baoqiang called so early this year to wish him a happy new year.

"Boss, I am the first one to wish you a happy new year, right?" Baoqiang said with a smile.

Chen Le smiled and nodded, "Yes, you are the first one."

"Haha, that's good!"

Then, Wang Baoqiang hung up the phone, and then Zhang Songwen, Zhou Yiwei, Lin Jiazhen and Bai Ke called one after another to wish him a happy new year.

Chen Le thought they had colluded and called one after another.
