Seeing Ruan Siyao's dumbfounded appearance, Jian Yunxi felt funny, "Anyway, the road is not far, and it will be the same if we walk back." Moreover, they arrive home first, and you save yourself the hard work of moving things. ”

"With that, I feel like I've made a lot of money." Jian Yunxi's reason gave Ruan Siyao great comfort, "Okay, let's walk back slowly, just when we get home, we should finish moving things." ”

"Yes, anyway, my cousin has a lot of strength, so it's just right for him to do this coolie." Jian Yunxi agreed, but in his heart he was very grateful to Lin Beiyu for his great eyesight.

Walking along the street, passing by a small shop that specializes in making birthday cakes, Ruan Siyao remembered that he wanted to buy fairy sticks before going out.

In recent years, fireworks and firecrackers have been restricted in the city, that is, there are no big restrictions in villages and towns, and the only time to set off fireworks every year is the New Year.

"Senior, you wait for me, I'll go buy something." Ruan Siyao pointed to the shop that made birthday cakes and said.

"Buy a birthday cake? Who has a birthday? ”

"No, usually this kind of store also sells fireworks and firecrackers, I want to buy some fairy sticks, I haven't played it for a long time. Just take advantage of the Chinese New Year to play these two days, which can be regarded as an enjoyable experience. ”

"Then why don't you go to the fireworks shop and buy it, there must be more varieties than here."

"No need, it's the same here anyway, just buy some and go back to have fun, just have an atmosphere."

Jian Yunxi saw someone selling sugar and fried chestnuts, "Then you go, I'll buy something over there." ”

Ruan Siyao went to the store and picked out a fairy stick with a small twenty arms, and went out to check out, Jian Yunxi had already carried a large paper bag and waited.

"Let's go, it's not too early." Ruan Siyao held the fairy stick in his arms, and I have to say that these things add up to a bit heavy.

"Anyway, I'm going to send you home, I'll help you carry it, these twenty heels are quite heavy, you can help me hold the bag in my hand." Jian Yunxi didn't allow Ruan Siyao to refuse, and directly took away the stack of fairy sticks that Ruan Siyao was holding.

Ruan Siyao held Jian Yunxi's bag, and he could feel the temperature of his hands burning through the bag. Rising to the steaming heat is the sweet chestnut flavor, "Wow! Senior, the sugar-fried chestnuts you bought? ”

"Isn't it fragrant? I bought two packs and one of them was for you. If you want to eat it now, just take it, it's freshly baked, and now is the most fragrant time. ”

"Eh, there's a pack for me?" Ruan Siyao was a little surprised, "I really don't need to, in fact, you and Brother Bei Yu helped us get something today, it should be that we invite you to eat." Now I'm a little embarrassed that you invite us to eat, senior. ”

"You forgot again, didn't you say okay, are you going to start getting used to calling me Brother Yun Xi? Are you lying to me? ”

Ruan Siyao smiled awkwardly, "I forgot, after all, I've been shouting seniors for so long, and it's really a bit difficult for me to change my words all at once." It takes time to get used to this kind of thing. ”

"It's okay, it's going to be a long time in the future anyway, just get used to it slowly."

"Well, I'll get used to it as soon as I can." Ruan Siyao's eyes flickered, and he felt that he couldn't talk anymore this day, so he took out a sugar-fried chestnut from the bag in his hand, peeled off the shell and began to eat.

Jian Yunxi saw that Ruan Siyao was eating sweetly, and felt that this sugar-fried chestnut also looked better than expected, and it should be ten times sweeter.

Jian Yunxi's eyes swept over from time to time made Ruan Siyao feel that the needles were on his back, and he couldn't help but reflect in his heart, could it be that he ate too hard?

"Senior, no, that Brother Yun Xi, do you want to eat some?" Ruan Siyao took a chestnut that was still steaming and handed it to Jian Yunxi's eyes.

"That's good, but I can't spare my hands to peel chestnuts." Jian Yunxi raised his eyebrows and signaled that he had a bunch of things in his hand, and he almost asked Ruan Siyao to peel them for him.

Ruan Siyao still has this bit of eyesight, "Oh, you wait a while." Removing the shell, Ruan Siyao reached out and put the peeled chestnuts to Jian Yunxi's mouth. However, because of the height gap between the two people, and Ruan Siyao was still holding the bag in his hand, the outstretched hand only stretched out to Jian Yunxi's chin.

Jian Yunxi did not lower his head, but stared at Ruan Siyao's hand, Ruan Siyao's hand was tired, and he didn't see Jian Yunxi bowing his head, and moved his arm carefully, wanting to relieve the soreness on his arm and the embarrassment in his heart.

"That, senior, don't you want to eat chestnuts?" Ruan Siyao asked stubbornly.

Jian Yunxi smiled: "No, I just thought of one thing, so I was in a daze." After speaking, he lowered his head and opened his mouth to eat the chestnuts in Ruan Siyao's hand.

The soft lips and warm fingers touched, and the chestnut took off his hand, and Ruan Siyao quickly retracted his hand as if he had been touched by electricity.

"Well, the chestnuts are really delicious, soft and glutinous and sweet." Jian Yunxi smiled and bent his eyes, "Trouble Yuanyuan, you can help me peel another one." ”

Ruan Siyao lowered his head, took out one from the bag, peeled it carefully, and reached out directly after peeling it, without raising his head, almost feeding the chestnuts into Jian Yunxi's nostrils. If this chestnut was a little smaller, or Jian Yunxi's nostrils were a little bigger, maybe it would really be stuffed in.

"Yuanyuan, are you trying to murder?" Jian Yunxi laughed.

"Huh?" Ruan Siyao looked up, saw where his hand was stretching, and the embarrassment suddenly soared to his head, and he quickly dodged it, "That, it's a pure mistake." ”

"How I feel you're a little absent-minded."

"No, let's go back quickly, if we don't go back, it's too late, Chinese New Year's Eve can't still hang outside."

Ruan Siyao said so, of course Jian Yunxi would not stay any longer. kept sending Ruan Siyao home, and the two of them didn't say much on the way.

Jian Yunxi returned the fairy stick in his hand to Ruan Siyao, "Since you have arrived, then I will go back first." ”

"Hey, senior, you haven't taken the chestnuts yet." Ruan Siyao shouted to Jian Yunxi.

Jian Yunxi turned around and patted his head: "Yes, I forgot that I also bought fried chestnuts with sugar." After speaking, he took out the bag that Ruan Siyao had eaten from Ruan Siyao's arms, "I took the things and went back." ”

"Senior, I've eaten this, you haven't eaten this bag."

"It's okay, we have less family, and you have more family, so you can eat that bag." With that, he strode away.

Ruan Siyao walked into the door with something, thinking about what Jian Yunxi said, no, there is only one more person in his own family than the senior's family, how can he take such a advantage in vain.

"Sister, you're back." Qin Wanting had already opened a bag of potato chips and sat in the yard to eat them, and saw Ruan Siyao holding a stack of fairy sticks in her arms, "Wow! I forgot about it, but luckily you remembered, I bought it back. ”

"I forgot about it, but when I came back, I passed by a cake shop and suddenly remembered that you said you wanted to buy fairy sticks, so I bought them."

"It's good to buy it back, otherwise we have nothing to do at night, so we can only watch the Spring Festival Gala dryly. In the evening, we will go up to the rooftop, and many people will set off fireworks at night, and it is very beautiful to watch on the rooftop. ”

"Then let's light a charcoal pot at night, and watch the fireworks roast sweet potatoes on the rooftop, it can't be better than this." Ruan Siyao proposed.

"Okay, it's burnt, that's fragrant." When it comes to eating, Qin Wanting is full of energy, and she can't wait until night now.

"It's time to eat!" Qin Rui stood at the window and shouted at Ruan Siyao and Qin Wanting.

The Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was extraordinarily rich, and the family got together and enjoyed the fruits of the family's busy day.

After eating, Ruan Duo, Qin Qi, and Qin Rui contracted the work of washing dishes. Before the Spring Festival Gala, Qin Zhen and Liu Li put the fruits and melon seeds they had bought before on a plate in the living room. Ruan Siyao and Qin Wanting pestered Mao Junyi to light a charcoal basin, and Qin Bosen went to the rooftop to feed the bees in the hive the last meal of the year.

There are still about ten minutes before the start of the Spring Festival Gala, Mao Junyi has already lit up the charcoal basin, and turned over a few sweet potatoes from the pantry, "Now put the sweet potatoes in it and roast them first, let's go downstairs to watch TV for a while, and when the time is almost up, you can take out the sweet potatoes." ”

"How long does it take to cook?" Ruan Siyao squatted next to the charcoal basin and observed carefully.

"Such a big sweet potato, it will take an hour." Mao Junyi buried the sweet potatoes in the charcoal pile, "Okay, let's go down first." ”

went downstairs, the dishwashing team had already cleaned up the kitchen, the family was sitting on the sofa, Ruan Siyao and Qin Wanting moved a small bench and sat on the coffee table, eating melon seeds while waiting for the arrival of the Spring Festival Gala.

At eight o'clock, with the familiar opening music, the Spring Festival Gala officially began.

It's still last year's host lineup, it's still a festive background, and it's still a fun show.

Seeing half past nine, Ruan Siyao and Qin Wanting went up to the rooftop, and the fairy stick had been taken up before, at this time someone had already set off fireworks outside, and the originally black sky was illuminated, and colorful lights bloomed in the air, making people happy when they saw it.

Qin Wanting took out a lighter from her pocket and lit a fairy stick, Ruan Siyao took one and put it on the one that Qin Wanting lit, and it was ignited in an instant.

One after another, the fairy rods were ignited, and the yellowish sparks splashed in the air, and some sparks splashed on the back of the hand, with a slight burn, but also brought out full of joy.

Ruan Siyao lay on the edge of the rooftop and shouted into the distance: "Happy New Year!" ”

Qin Wanting did the same, and also held a fairy stick to the edge, "Happy New Year!" I hope I can be admitted to the school of my choice next year, and I hope that our family will get better and better in the future! ”

The two people took turns shouting on the rooftop, until all the more than 20 fairy sticks were lit, and the two people felt that they were still unsatisfied, and let out a shocking laugh on the rooftop.

It wasn't until nearly eleven o'clock that the two of them went downstairs with the charcoal basin and pulled the sweet potato out of the charcoal basin with the help of Qin Rui.

According to the rules, Chinese New Year's Eve is a vigil, and it is only eleven o'clock, several hours have passed before dinner, and the family is more or less hungry.

The sweet potatoes baked over charcoal are really different, and they are much more fragrant than those baked in the oven. After eating the roasted sweet potatoes, the hunger in my stomach was relieved.

At twelve o'clock, the sound of the host's countdown came from the TV, followed by New Year's wishes.

Qin Bosen was the first to speak: "Happy New Year!" Then Mao Junyi, and then came down in turn, until Qin Wanting, as the youngest, finished saying New Year's greetings, Qin Wanting and Ruan Siyao each got a red envelope for the New Year, and the family turned off the TV and went to sleep.

Lying on the bed, Ruan Siyao sent New Year's greetings to Jiang Chuyun, Zhang Jiahui, Xi Xi, and Zhao Yun, and clicked on Jian Yunxi's WeChat chat interface, hesitating whether to send New Year's greetings to the past, and clicked and clicked on the input box, back and forth, tangled for a long time, and finally clicked a happy New Year's emoji and sent it over.
