Chapter 374 Xiao Xinyu Gets Into Bed
New Year's Eve.
Early in the morning, Chen Yuan received a call.
It was from the human version of Yu Zi.
So, he answered it.
"Why did you call me?" Chen Yuan sat up from the bed and said lazily.
"What kind of mural is this? It's New Year's Day, can't I say Happy New Year to you?"
Yu Zi was arrogant and asked directly.
"Oh, sure." Since the other party was so polite, Chen Yuan also responded with etiquette, "Happy New Year, Happy New Year."
"How are you? Didn't anything happen after taking Xinyu back?"
"Very good, very smooth."
Chen Yuan was still a little sleepy and didn't plan to go into details, so he changed the subject: "How are you? You must have been busy these two days, right?"
"Busy? Oh, that's true."
At this point, Zhou Yu suddenly had a strong desire to complain, and confided: "Basically, I'm visiting people everywhere, eating, and meeting people. I don't have much time, and Jiaojiao insisted on asking me to go out to accompany her..."
"Be a little busy, be a little busy."
In response, Chen Yuan said dejectedly.
"That's right, I'm busy, but at least I had a good time..." Zhou Yu suddenly realized something halfway through his speech, and said in a serious tone, "No."
Ding——
Before the other party started the Cybertron voice output, Chen Yuan hung up the phone directly.
A wonderful new year starts with the victory of the seniority dispute.
No, it's the end.
Tomorrow is the first day of the new year.
Then tomorrow at noon, I will take a car with Xinyu to Shaoxiang to see my grandfather and sweep the grave.
Although it's not the exact "Spring Festival" yet, many people have already started to pay New Year's greetings.
Thinking that tomorrow will be a bit busy, Chen Yuan also plans to solve it now.
So, he took out his mobile phone and found Shen Xiaoran.
Chen Yuan: Happy New Year, Xiao Shen, I wish you good academic performance and happiness every day
Give her another red envelope, this guy said he would support himself in the future.
Then, he sent Shen Xiaoran another red envelope of 100 yuan.
Soon, she was blown out.
Shen Xiaoran: Why did you say it today? I wanted to send it to you on time at midnight!
Chen Yuan: I am old, and I am not going to watch the Spring Festival Gala tonight, so I cannot celebrate the New Year on time.
By the way, are there any friends from the future who can tell me how the CCTV Spring Festival Gala is this year? If it is good, I will stay up late to watch it for a while.
Shen Xiaoran: Then, do you want to video chat with me?
Chen Yuan: How can you stutter when typing?
Chen Yuan: Sure.
So the other party called me on the video call.
After the call was connected, Chen Yuan finally understood why she could stutter when typing.
At this moment, Shen Xiaoran was wearing a rather auspicious Spring Festival limited cheongsam, with a warm and furry collar, and a pair of round double buns on her head...
Isn't this Xiao Qiao in our King of Glory?
Remember to indicate the source.
"Happy New Year."
Shen Xiaoran blushed and just started to speak shyly, her mother came over: "Are you with Chen Yuan? Stand further away, I'll take a picture of you."
"No, mom, you play while you are..."
"You look more beautiful when you flip the camera."
"Really?"
"Really."
"Okay, then hold it up for me."
Chen Yuan: "..."
Just like that, Chen Yuan watched Shen Xiaoran retreat little by little and stand in the middle of the living room.
Then, she clasped her hands together. Although this outfit was very embarrassing, she said auspicious words as outgoing as possible: "Happy New Year, I wish you good health and all the best. May you have this day every year, and may Xiaoran be with you every year."
This kid actually tampered with the auspicious words left by our ancestors!
"Thank you."
Looking at this cute child, Chen Yuan felt quite healed.
"Okay, mom, give me the phone quickly."
After greeting the New Year, Shen Xiaoran eagerly went to her mother for the phone.
Then she stumbled, her legs still not in good condition, and she knelt on the ground with her knees...
"Hey, there's no need to do this!"
This kneeling almost shook out the BGM of "If the Falling Leaves Change Season"...
Shen Xiaoran, who did such a shameful thing, hurriedly said to her mother: "Turn it off!"
Just like that, the video call ended.
Then...
Send a message to Sister Tongtong.
Chen Yuan: Comrade Li Tong, Happy New Year
Similarly, it didn't take long for the other party to reply.
Li Tong: Happy New Year, classmate Chen Yuan, I wish you better grades and more handsome looks
After sending the blessing, a transfer of 1,000 with the note "New Year's red envelope" came over.
Gah! Is this the strength of a social person who pays provident fund and social security and medical insurance?
Ten times more arrogant than myself.
Chen Yuan: Is this bribing the people?
Li Tong: How can a public servant bribe the people?
Chen Yuan: It's still too big. Please send me a 200 yuan package, Sister Tong.
Two hundred is enough. One thousand is a bit like a gigolo.
And if I really want to be a gigolo, I will definitely find a younger and prettier Fu Fu.
Just as he was waiting for a reply, a WeChat voice message came.
So Chen Yuan clicked it.
Then, he heard Tong Tong's rare gentle voice: "Brother, take it."
"..."Chen Yuan had to admit that he blushed.
The cheeks were slightly rosy.
No, I can't do anything to let Xin Yu down.
So, Chen Yuan's fingers trembled slightly and clicked the word "collect".
I'll take your money, but forget about your kindness.
I feel comfortable.
Chen Yuan: Thank you, boss, you are generous
Li Tong: Don’t call me boss, civil servants can’t do business
Chen Yuan: "..."
Hey hey, fuck you.
You're one of those TV dramas where the hero rides a bicycle with his sister, and you're there to talk about violating traffic laws, right?
Li Tong: So what are your plans for today?
Chen Yuan: Let’s rest at home, have New Year’s dinner, and then play cards in the afternoon.
Li Tong: OK, it’s fun
Li Tong: No money is required to play cards.
Don't have money to play Hammer?
Chen Yuan: I understand. I promise not to participate in gambling or drug abuse.
Li Tong:?
This yellow is really not guaranteed.
After all, I can control myself, but there is really nothing Yuzi can do.
This guy of hers is simply a pervert.
I have thought about how squeezed my married life will be, which is sad.
Chen Yuan: So what are your plans tonight?
Li Tong: On duty [dog head]
Chen Yuan: Thank you for your hard work, thank you for protecting my Xia Hai
After talking to Li Tong, only the threesome, Tang Siwen and Zhou Fu were left in the group chat.
Let’s leave these people to talk about it at the right time tomorrow.
After all, Fu Ma is great and cannot be ignored.
After it was over, Chen Yuan got up, got dressed, and went outside.
At this moment, Xia Xinyu brushed her teeth and prepared to call him.
The two people met in the hallway of their home.
At this time, my mother suddenly shouted: "Xinyu, come here, let me show you something."
Xia Xinyu was a little confused, and then she dragged Chen Yuan over.
Then, I saw a low fire table in the living room, covered with a blanket...
"Hey, a firebox!" Xia Xinyu recognized the thing and said very happily.
"What the hell?" Chen Yuan didn't quite understand.
"I heard that Jingnan will have this during the New Year, so I made it. See if it feels like the New Year." Yang Junlian said.
"Hmm, I feel like I'm home all of a sudden." Xia Xinyu nodded happily.
"Then how do you use this thing?" Chen Yuan asked.
"Come, let me teach you."
Xia Xinyu directly took Chen Yuan's hand and brought him to the sofa.
Next, open the oven.
Then, two people put their feet on it.
Xia Xinyu also skillfully covered the two people's legs with a blanket.
Chen Yuan didn't feel much at first, but gradually he felt warmth spread all over his body, and exclaimed: "Oh, it's almost like a kotatsu..."
"Yes, they are similar. In Jingnan, almost every household has them." Xia Xinyu said.
"Not every household has it. There must be some families that don't have it. We can't generalize."
"ah?"
"It's okay, I'm in Diejia."
"Yeah, you two can spend the winter with this." Yang Junlian said with a smile.
"Well... aunty, don't you and uncle come and give it a try?" Xia Xinyu asked.
"We went out to play cards." Yang Junlian explained sheepishly.
"Okay, let's go." Chen Yuan made an OK gesture and said, "We just need to be at home."
"No activities?" Chen Jianye asked puzzledly.
"Nothing much to do. Let's take a rest. We have to catch the bus tomorrow." After Chen Yuan finished speaking, he added, "If Yang Qiqi wants me to play mahjong, then I will go."
"Okay, let's come back and cook at noon." Yang Junlian said.
"No, no need." In response, Xia Xinyu said quickly, "There were a lot of dishes yesterday. Chen Yuan and I will cook and eat them ourselves."
"Yes, please don't worry about us, just go live your two-person world."
Xinyuan said so, so Jianye and his wife had no choice but to agree.
Then, they went out.
"Although this is easy to lie down on, does it feel too comfortable and make you sleepy easily?" Chen Yuan asked.
"During the Chinese New Year, you have to be lazy."
After Xia Xinyu finished speaking, she stretched out her hand, looked at Chen Yuan, and gestured a little domineeringly: Come, let me hold you.
Good guy, does this firebox liberate Yuzi's nature?
OK.
In this way, Chen Yuan leaned on Xia Xinyu's outstretched hand.
But after a while, her hands became numb, so she looked at him eagerly.
Then, it became Chen Yuan hugging Xia Xinyu.
She leaned against him.
The two of them were just warming up over the fire, eating sugar oranges produced by Guangzhou C, and watching the latest TV series.
"What kind of show is it? Is it good?" Chen Yuan asked.
"The period drama is pretty good, starring Bai Jingting and Jin Chen." Xia Xinyu said.
"This guy Bai Jingting is really good."
"Yeah...but I think you are prettier than him."
"It's passed."
"I didn't expect our Yuanbao to be so humble."
"No, I mean a lot more than that."
"...Our Yuanbao is so funny."
This New Year's Eve, the two of them had a very relaxed and leisurely time.
Warming up by the fire, eating oranges, watching TV series, scrolling through Douyin, and taking a nap together.
Then, it’s the New Year’s dinner in the afternoon.
After the New Year's dinner, Yang Qiqi opened a mahjong room.
So, Chen Yuan played mahjong for a while with Xinyu.
How should I put it, she is indeed a Hunan girl.
It only takes three to adapt to the rules.
After three rounds, the chaos of sharks began.
They played until 11 o'clock in the evening. After converting the chips into money, Xia Xinyu won more than 200 and happily offered her to pay for the mahjong room.
In this way, the two spent a successful New Year's Eve.
But unfortunately, when they got home, it was already half past eleven. They had missed most of the Spring Festival Gala and it was almost over...
………
In their respective rooms, the two played with their phones and chatted on QQ.
At this time, firecrackers rang outside, crackling.
Xiahai banned firecrackers, but counties like Hexiang were not so arrogant. When the New Year came, there were endless firecrackers.
When Chen Yuan was about to type something to Xia Xinyu, his door was suddenly pushed open.
After Xia Xinyu came in, she locked the door and went straight into her bed, saying, "The Nian Beast is coming, the Nian Beast is coming..."
"Xinbao, don't be afraid, I'll set off firecrackers to scare it away."
So Chen Yuan slapped his butt with his hands, making a crisp sound.
Then, a head popped out from under the quilt, staring at him with a scowl: "Can't you take your own photos?"
"Mine isn't as cute as yours..."
Xia Xinyu covered Chen Yuan's mouth and interrupted his spell.
Then, she shrank to his side, leaning against him like a little wife.
"Aren't you afraid of being discovered by my parents?" Chen Yuan asked with a smile.
"Of course I'm afraid..." Xia Xinyu whispered, "But I sneaked over here because I saw they all went back to their rooms. As long as I go back at five o'clock tomorrow morning, no one will notice."
After saying that, she even set an alarm.
"Xinyu is really bold." Chen Yuan shook his head and sighed.
"..." Leaning on Chen Yuan, Xia Xinyu whispered, "I want to be with you."
Chen Yuan was startled and said nervously: "It's over, Qi Xinyu."
"What does Qi Xinyu mean? Why is my name in it..."
"It's okay, Happy New Year."
"Yeah, Happy New Year."
Just like that, Xia Xinyu snuggled in Chen Yuan's arms, and the two of them were in the room where Chen Yuan grew up, and they were one year older in the explosion...
Tomorrow, Xiao Xia will return home.
