Why marry someone when you are reborn?

Chapter 99 Chinese New Year

Early in the morning on New Year's Eve, Luo Yuan and Chen Huaniang moved out of Luo Zhan's house and went to a farm in the suburbs.

Xu Yun and Xie Wanqing also got up early to see them off.

After one night, it was obvious that the couple still hadn't figured it out.

There was still resentment on his face, and he refused to even look at Aunt Deng and the others standing next to him.

Xie Wanqing walked forward and stuffed the bundle in her hand into Chen Huaniang's hand: "Since we have divided the family, you should live a good life in the future. This is the little thing we prepared for you, just consider it as congratulations on your new home."

Chen Huaniang's eyes were red, and she held Xie Wanqing's hand tightly: "Madam Xie, thank you for still thinking about us. I used to give you a cold shoulder--"

She gritted her teeth and complained, "I didn't expect that outsiders would be better than relatives at this time."

When Aunt Deng heard this, she turned her back and wiped her tears.

Xie Wanqing looked embarrassed.

Xu Yun stepped forward, held Chen Huaniang's hand, and freed Xie Wanqing.

She pulled Chen Hua Niang aside and said softly, "Hua Niang, you two should stop arguing. Since you are determined to support each other, don't think about anything else."

After a pause, she lowered her voice: "But if you are wronged, you can talk to someone. Ask someone to help you."

Chen Huaniang sniffed and choked up as she responded, "I know."

He glanced at Auntie Deng with resentment and said through gritted teeth, "No matter what, Dalang and I must live a good life so that some people can take a closer look at us!"

This time, it was Xu Yun who was embarrassed.

But Chen Huaniang was so caught up in her emotions that she didn't notice any of this at all. In the end, Xu Yun decisively let go of her hand, smiled, wished her a happy new year in advance, and stepped aside.

Luo Zhan took a step forward and said loudly: "Sister-in-law, if my brother dares to attack you again, you can send someone to tell me, and I will personally help you get revenge! Even if it means divorce, I will help you!"

Chen Huaniang was stunned.

Luo Yuan glared at Luo Zhan, feeling that his own brother was really not on his side at all.

Ah Shu urged, "Young Master, Madam, let's set off quickly. If it snows soon, it will be difficult to travel today."

Chen Huaniang helped Luo Yuan onto the carriage, and Ashu immediately urged the horses to set off without any delay.

Not until the carriage completely disappeared from sight did Aunt Deng finally unable to hold back her tears.

Xie Wanqing went forward to comfort her.

Xu Yun looked at Luo Zhan twice more.

Luo Zhan didn't say much, rubbing his hands: "Let's all go back. It's too cold outside. It's New Year's Day, don't get cold."

After a pause, Luo Zhan said, "We have few people in our two families, and we have a life-and-death friendship, so why don't we celebrate the New Year together today."

That being said, everyone knew that Luo Zhan was afraid that Aunt Deng would see the lonely house and feel sad when she thought of Luo Yuan and his wife.

Xu Yun was also worried about Aunt Deng, so he nodded: "Okay."

However, even with so many people around, Aunt Deng's mood could not be cheered up.

But this is the first year after the founding of the country, and even though there is a lot of work to be done, it is still worth celebrating.

Moreover, after fighting for so many years, this year seems to be entering a period of stability, and everyone is happy and expectant.

Therefore, this year is taken extra seriously.

The smell of meat and burning firecrackers wafted over every household, and new peach charms were hung on the doors.

When it was time to have the New Year's Eve dinner, there was a loud explosion from somewhere, which scared many people so much that they subconsciously crawled under the table.

Among them is Aunt Deng.

She subconsciously pulled Xu Yun and the others over and crawled under the table.

Luo Zhan jumped up and rushed out of the house in an instant.

Then, he was shocked by the huge, colorful flowers in the sky - not fire thunder.

Those flowers, accompanied by the sound of explosions, bloomed in the sky, dyeing the cold winter night with brilliant colors.

Xu Yun also came out.

She looked up at the sky and murmured, "It's so beautiful."

Aunt Deng and the others who followed out were also dumbfounded.

This splendor is grand and dazzling, with a breathtaking beauty.

Xu Yun asked Luo Zhan: "Is that the direction of the imperial palace?"

Luo Zhan responded, "Yes. I guess your majesties have asked someone to come up with something new. I just don't know what it's for."

Xu Yun guessed: "Maybe it's just for the sake of looking good."

It was specially chosen at this time when families were reunited, with such brilliant colors and crackling sounds - she really couldn't make any other guesses.

Luo Zhan relaxed his tension upon hearing this and even smiled: "It is indeed very pretty."

At this moment, countless people walked out of their houses, looked up at the sky, and were stunned by the shock.

Xu Yun quietly asked the library: "Library, what is this?"

Library: "These are fireworks. They are mainly used for celebrations during festivals."

Xu Yun understood, and then asked another question: "Library, how many systems do you have at a time?"

Library: "One. The delivery system is not an easy thing."

Xu Yun didn't ask any more questions, but she was a little confused. Finally, she looked up at the endless stream of fireworks blooming in the night sky and decided to put them aside for the time being.

The fireworks display on New Year's Eve lasted for half an hour.

By the end, Auntie Deng was a little fed up: "It's nice to watch, but there's nothing new about it."

Xie Wanqing nodded: "It would look better if there were more patterns."

Xu Yun and Luo Zhan looked at each other: ...If your Majesties heard this, they would probably be furious.

But thanks to the fireworks, the atmosphere finally got much better. Aunt Deng enthusiastically talked to Xie Wanqing about the changes in her life after moving to Beiping City, and temporarily forgot about her unhappiness.

After eating the New Year’s Eve dinner, Xu Yun and Xie Wanqing went back to their own house to keep watch.

The next day, the streets were bustling with activity.

Everyone came out of their homes and talked excitedly about the fireworks last night.

Gradually, the name of fireworks spread, and a message spread: There are fireworks tonight. There are also fireworks on the 15th day of the first lunar month, the Lantern Festival! This was developed by His Majesty, specifically for celebrating the New Year! Moreover, fireworks can also drive away evil spirits and avoid plague!

In the city of Peking, there was a chorus of admiration for Your Majesties.

On the first day of the new year, with such an atmosphere, everyone had an idea from the bottom of their hearts: China will eventually unify the north and the south and bring about unprecedented stability and prosperity.

Xu Yun also received many New Year gifts on this day.

The first person to send a gift was Xie Wanqing, who made a new set of clothes for Xu Yun with her own hands.

The second person to come was Aunt Deng. She picked out a lot of Luo Zhan's pens, inks, papers and inkstones and gave them to Xu Yun as a New Year's gift.

In addition, there were knee pads sent by Hongyu, a set of books sent by Gao Yu, a collection of essays and a set of pine soot ink sticks sent by Xiao Zheyue.

Even Zhao Mu and Zeng Wuji came over and presented gifts, including a fan and an inkstone.

Xu Yun sent return gifts to Gao Yu, Xiao Zheyue, Zhao Mu and Zeng Wuji.

However, Xiao Zheyue asked someone to say thank you and gave her a pair of small peach wood rulers, which she carved herself in her free time.

It’s not worth the money, but it’s full of sincerity.
