The firecrackers outside crackled for a full 20 minutes.
After eating half of the meal, it gradually quieted down.
The television on the wall was showing the Spring Festival program, which was quite lively.
After the group finished eating, they went back to making dumplings.
When they were all ready, they planned to go back to their rooms to sleep for a while. Huo Jingchen couldn't help but have some fun with Zhao Siqing again.
By the time the two of them got up, it was already eight o'clock in the evening.
Mrs. Gu and Yang Jingqiu had almost finished cooking the dumplings. The room was full of steam, and the windows were covered with a layer of steam, which added some warmth.
"You're awake. Wash your hands and get ready to eat, " Mrs. Gu said gently as she came out with the dumplings.
Zhao Siqing felt a little embarrassed when she saw that everyone was here.
Old Mrs. Huo and Huo Jingchen were also there. Old Mrs. Huo only glanced at her and Huo Jingchen, but didn't say anything.
After eating the dumplings, the older ones left first, saying that they would come back at midnight.
Yang Jingqiu stayed behind and called Jiang Jingming, Gu Shiyu, and Huo Jingchen. Zhao Siqing, Nalan Yanran, and Xie Yumian sat together. Looking at this lineup, they thought that Yang Jingqiu would probably be crushed in a second.
The three of them sat together and watched TV. Song Huaijin and Zhao Yancheng sat on the other side and whispered something.
Sure enough, not long after, Yang Jingqiu's voice came from the Mahjong table at the side.
"Huo Jingchen, YOU'RE NOT ONE OF US! "
Huo Jingchen frowned slightly. He dared not say anything about his mother-in-law's stupidity.
Now that their relationship had finally gotten better, if he said a few words back and angered Yang Jingqiu again, Qing Qing would have to fight with him for a long time.
"Gu Shiyu, why are you so sinister? Fortunately, Qing Qing is not like you at all! "
Hearing this, Gu Shiyu's hand that was about to play cards paused, and he silently played another card.
Jiang Jingming laughed at the side, thinking that it was fortunate that he had nothing to do with it.
But he did not expect that he would be happy too early.
The next second, Yang Jingqiu aimed her gun at him. "You don't even play this, you're so cowardly. No wonder that Chu doesn't want you. "
Jiang Jingming:''...". ...
Could they still play happily?
Zhao Siqing hugged the pillow and sat cross-legged on the SOFA, watching the scene with a silly smile.
How could she have forgotten that although Yang Jingqiu's iq might not be comparable to the other evildoers, her aggressiveness was strong.
Perhaps the one who would win the money in the end would really be the empress dowager.
The party was noisy until 11:30. It was not until Mrs. Gu and Mrs. Huo came back that they finally closed the stall. They cooked another wave of dumplings and pig's feet and began to eat, saying that they were welcoming the god of wealth.
There were several kinds of fillings for the dumplings. Zhao Siqing ate one or two of each, and she was very full.
Looking at the last one in the bowl, Zhao Siqing quietly moved to Huo Jingchen's side and whispered, "Huo Jingchen, can I give you the last one? I'm so full. "
Huo Jingchen turned his head to meet the woman's clear eyes, and then he glanced at the dumplings in her bowl.
"okay, " he said in a low voice. He felt that the Chubby dumplings in her bowl were even more attractive.
Huo Jingchen picked up the dumplings, took a bite, and then his teeth were bitten. He immediately frowned and looked down, and saw a coin wrapped in the dumplings.
Zhao Siqing was also stunned for a few seconds, then she said excitedly, "Huo Jingchen, you will be lucky for the whole year this year! "
