Genshin Impact: Great, you guys still remember

Phew——bang——

The little fox was awakened by the sound of firecrackers.

Snow was falling outside the window, the east wind was howling, and the accumulated snow was reflecting the morning light.

As winter deepens, these crackling sounds become more and more intense.

It's so noisy. I don't know why these people get up so early in the winter.

She stretched out her paws to cover her pointed ears and burrowed her furry head deeper into the quilt, using the warmth to resist the cold and noise outside.

In winter, the most comfortable thing is to stay in bed.

She squinted her eyes, yawned, and was about to take another nap.

boom--

"..."

She covered her ears and burrowed deeper into the quilt.

bang bang-

"..."

She burrowed in again, pulling the quilt to cover herself completely.

bang bang bang-

"(╬▔皿▔)╯"

Are you going to let the fox sleep?

She threw back the quilt and stood up from the bed.

Just at that moment, the door opened a crack, revealing a smiling head.

"Don't want to sleep? It's just right that you're awake. Come out with us."

...

It's hard not to suspect that you did it on purpose.

...

It's the New Year, today is called New Year's Eve by humans.

After this winter, she was only three years old and had no idea about this.

Judging from the lantern festival at Inazuma Castle I visited before, it seems to be much more lively than before, with goldfish catching, temple fairs, wearing masks, etc.

These things that actually appeared in Inazuma City let her know that this festival must be extremely special to humans.

But... why did you buy this?

She leaned on He Li's shoulder, her beautiful fox eyes constantly looking at the red paper in his hand.

Two long and one short, with patterns embroidered on them.

He Li asked a vendor selling red paper for a pen, and Yae Shenzi jumped off his shoulder and squatted beside the table, watching quietly.

"The old year's sorrows go with the wild geese, the new journey brings dreams back with loved ones, and the love gathers at this time."

She couldn't understand, but Lei Dianzhen beside her read it out softly for her.

By the way, he reached out and touched her ear, and said in a gentle voice:

"For hundreds of years, we have celebrated the New Year together. This year is different, and the couplets are also different. Lei Longjun is thoughtful."

"After all, there is one more person,"

He Li smiled and shook his head, put away the couplet, and picked up the little fox on his shoulder again.

what are you guys saying?

The little fox shook his head, totally confused.

What does this have to do with the New Year?

...

"Woo, big brother, real sister, and the little guy——"

At the gate of the shogunate, they met Michiyo.

Chiyo was wearing a bright red robe with a light golden silk petticoat underneath. A small section of her fair neck was exposed at the round collar, and she was wrapped in a bright red scarf, which made her look festive and tall.

"Do you like this dress?"

Lei Dianzhen looked at her with a smile and said:

"Your brother designed it especially for you."

"Hehe, I've always liked big brother's vision,"

After looking around and seeing that no one was around, Chiyo returned to her usual liveliness.

He walked up to the two of them in two steps and reached out to grab the Son of God on He Li's shoulder:

"Little guy, I haven't seen you for a few days. Do you miss me? Give me a hug--"

You open your elbow.

The little fox had always been a little afraid of the ghost, so he immediately got into He Li's clothes.

Being scared of being strangled is only one aspect, on the other hand...

Looking at Chiyo in red, then at the two people also in red, and then at myself who was naked,

Tsk, it's just clothes, I don't care.

What does this have to do with the New Year?

The little fox got into the clothes, and Chiyo's hug naturally went to He Li.

Hugging He Li, she tilted her delicate little face up and smiled foolishly:

"Hey, big brother, happy new year."

He Li couldn't help but reach out and scratch her nose:

"Silly girl, tomorrow is only the first day of the new year. Leave this sentence for tomorrow. Pack up and go to my house for the New Year's Eve dinner later."

"Good~"

...

"What a joke, if you say you won't go, then don't go."

He Li looked at Hu Zhai Palace with some annoyance.

He was always in a good mood, and the little fox had never seen him angry in the few days he had been here.

As soon as she said this, a few muffled thunders sounded in the sky above the Naruto-Oh! Shrine, causing her breathing to slow down a bit. She only dared to stick half of her head out from her collar to peek outside.

"I'm sorry, brother,"

Hu Zhaigong lowered his head, his erect fox ears now drooping softly on the side of his hair, his slender jade fingers gently pulling He Li's hand,

The cold voice of the past now carries some soft and apologetic tone:

"Too many people came to the big community today."

Is this the Fox Palace of Baichen Fox King?

The little fox was dumbfounded when he saw Kitsaigong standing like a primary school student being punished.

"So many that there's not even enough time to have a meal?"

He Li stared into her eyes.

"sorry,"

Hu Zhaigong just lowered his head, clenched his hands a little, and explained softly:

"Tomorrow is New Year's Day, and people always have more wishes."

The shrine is a place to collect wishes, and it is also the original intention of Raiden Shin to establish this shrine.

But...make a wish?

The little fox was still confused.

What does this have to do with the New Year?

"..."

He Li looked at the crowd going up the mountain not far away, paused, and suddenly said:

"So my wish is not a wish in your eyes?"

! !

Hu Zhaigong was stunned for a moment, then blurted out:

"Of course I don't think so. My brother's wish is the first thing I put in my heart."

"Then pack up and go back quickly,"

He Li suddenly waved his hand.

"?"

Kitsusaigong tilted his head.

He Li said:

"My wish is for my family to be together, at least on this day."

"Can..."

Hu Zhaigong didn't know what to say, and after a while he could only smile bitterly:

"But what about these people?"

"Isn't there a lantern festival tonight? Tell the shrine to distribute lanterns. The wishes written on the lanterns and floating on the river will still be heard. This should reduce a lot of your work... Anyway, you have to go back to eat today."

After saying this, He Li turned around and left, but his intermittent voice still carried into his ears with the wind:

"I listen to other people's wishes but I can't be reunited with my own family. What's the point of that? I need to discuss this with Shin. The shrine will be closed for a few days next year..."

Looking at his back, Husaigong couldn't help but smile and shook his head.

The extent to which my brother cares about these things is beyond my imagination.

Since he cares, go for it.

...

When I went to the military camp to call Sasayuri, smoke was already rising from Inazuma Castle.

In the gray fog filled with the sound of firecrackers, lanterns were lit like flowing water at the door of every household, and bright fireworks exploded from time to time in the sky, dimming the moonlight.

Maybe it was because they had been walking all day, but the little guy was a little listless and curled up in his arms.

He Li just thought she was hungry.

As soon as you open the door, you can smell the aroma of food.

"Oh dear Inasal, welcome home,"

Lei Dianying turned around, with a faint smile on his face.

She had taken off the warrior robes that were common in the past and put on a red sweater that Raiden Zhen had sewn himself, a retro plaid skirt with a horn button coat, and a pair of brown long snow boots on her feet, showing off her tall figure.

After being used to seeing the daily outfits of country girls, He Li's eyes lit up when she suddenly changed.

"very beautiful."

"Thank you. It's true that we should change into new clothes during the New Year to say goodbye to the old and welcome the new."

Lei Dianying recalled what Zhen said and answered in a serious tone.

He Li stepped forward, smiled and pinched the corner of her mouth:

"Aying looks good even without changing."

Ying looked down at his body:

"Should I change it then?"

"Why are you busying yourself with that? Sit down and prepare to eat. I'm going to change my clothes and change this little guy as well."

The little fox was still thinking about the similarities between "wearing new clothes" and "saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new", but before he could figure it out, He Li pulled it out from his collar again.

?

My eyes blurred, and I saw him take out a big red "sleeve" from somewhere, and the sleeve had four "tentacles" growing on it.

No, that's not the sleeve.

He Li smiled and said:

"Are you going to put it on yourself, or should I help you put it on?"

Bush, Gomen, me too?

The little fox looked at the rather small piece of clothing with a cute little Qilin embroidered on the back, and subconsciously wanted to resist.

She didn't know why she resisted.

Everyone I saw in the daytime was wearing red. They smiled and held hands, walking through this cold winter together and calling it "New Year"...

She didn't know if wearing this would count as "Chinese New Year". After all, she didn't even know what "Chinese New Year" was.

If it doesn't count, she would rather not wear it.

...

Every time she resisted, He Li would always suppress her with "iron and bloody means".

Just when she thought her resistance would be suppressed again,

There was a warm breeze blowing in my ears:

"This is hand-woven. The pure cotton material will make you no longer afraid of the cold wind. I thought that if we are not by your side, I don't want you to be frozen in the cold wind..."

The little fox was stunned, but He Li was still talking,

I only heard him chuckle in my ear:

"Oh, but I don't think so. If you don't like to wear it, then don't wear it. After all... you don't have to be cold anymore, because we will always be by your side..."

The warm wind blows into my ears, blowing my hair, as if to warm my heart.

The little fox looked at the dark eyes in front of him and his own reflection in them, and suddenly stopped resisting.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door along with a soft voice:

"Have you changed your clothes? Everyone is here. After you change, come out and have the New Year's Eve dinner—"

...

New Year's Eve dinner, reunion dinner, a meal eaten together by the whole family, changing into new clothes together, lighting firecrackers together, looking up at the sparks in the sky together, and waiting for tomorrow to come together.

So this is the Chinese New Year.

She is no longer alone at this moment.

Suddenly, a spark exploded outside the window, and the voice rang in my ears again:

"Happy New Year, little fox."

----------

I wish you all a happy new year. May those who are in school get good grades, those who are unemployed find a good job, those who are working meet a good boss, and may everything go well for everyone.

During the Chinese New Year last year, the book was too short and the plot was not developed, which made the New Year extra seem a bit abrupt. The author received a lot of complaints. This year's extra should be very suitable, and seamless. (￣▽￣)
