Chapter 323 Two Families Celebrate the New Year Together
"Anyway, it's just the few of you at home, and we're just the few of us. Besides, we're a family now, so we should celebrate the New Year together!"
"Tangtang also wants to spend the New Year with you."
Li Nanxi kept trying to persuade her.
Wang Manjuan thought to herself, "Since they've already said that, it would be impolite to argue further: 'Then I'll tell them that we'll drive over tomorrow.'"
“Okay, no problem at all. It’s decided then. I’ll be waiting for you for lunch tomorrow,” Li Nanxi said.
After the two hung up the phone, she returned the phone to Shen Wantang.
"Mom," Shen Wantang called out.
Li Nanxi nodded: "You should have told me sooner! Mom hasn't prepared anything yet. Go and ask people to prepare right away. This New Year, our family must have a happy time!"
"Thank you, Mom, you've worked so hard!" Shen Wantang smiled sweetly. She was just like a little child, really looking forward to the New Year.
She's sure to get a lot of lucky money this year!
Li Nanxi has been busy with New Year's preparations these past two days. She needs to prepare a lot of food, and the recipes also need to be prepared in advance. She also needs to have the kitchen all cleaned up.
Li Nanxi will cook for him personally.
Because the chefs in the kitchen will also get a holiday during the Lunar New Year. Everyone is a worker, so they definitely get a holiday.
It won't be too much trouble for Li Nanxi to cook herself, because the chefs have prepared all the ingredients and categorized them. Li Nanxi can just follow the steps.
Even the seasonings were already prepared; Li Nanxi only needed to stir-fry or boil them.
Shen Wantang has been resting at home every day, and Ji Yushi hasn't been working these past two days either.
After dinner, Ji Yushi, without fail, accompanied Shen Wantang for a walk.
Shen Wantang was too excited to sleep!
Her parents are coming tomorrow, along with her brother and sister-in-law. It's going to be a lot of fun with such a big family.
Even in this situation, she felt perfectly comfortable sitting there!
Shen Wantang is truly sentimental and fiercely protective of her own.
"No matter how excited you are, you have to go to sleep right now!" Ji Yushi looked at her. It was already 11 p.m., and she still wasn't asleep!
She usually falls asleep around 10 PM, but today she's already more than an hour late!
"Okay, I'll try to fall asleep!" Shen Wantang handed him her phone and asked him to charge it.
Without her phone, she tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep.
Ji Yushi frowned slightly. He turned off the light and played some soft music. Sure enough, her restless heart calmed down a lot, and she fell asleep in no time.
Seeing that she had fallen asleep, Ji Yushi breathed a sigh of relief, covered her with the blanket, and then it also went to rest.
The next morning, Shen Wantang slept until the morning, which was rare for her!
She usually gets up very early, but she went to bed late yesterday.
downstairs.
Li Nanxi checked the time: "Has Tangtang not gotten up yet? Her parents are coming soon, they should be here soon."
"I don't know, I'll go take a look." Ji Yushi put down the financial newspaper in his hand and got up to go upstairs.
Finding that Shen Wantang was indeed still asleep, he came to the bedside and quietly looked at her sleeping face. As expected of his wife, she was so beautiful!
Shen Wantang felt an itch on her face. She groggily opened her eyes and saw a handsome face magnified in front of her: "What?"
Her voice was soft, and Ji Yushi couldn't resist kissing her on the forehead.
"Get up, you sleepyhead, your parents will be here soon." Ji Yushi's lips curled up slightly.
What a lazybones, sleeping for so long.
Upon hearing this, Shen Wantang finally perked up a bit.
She nodded and stretched: "I'll get up right away, go get me my clothes."
Ji Yushi agreed: "Okay, then sit up by yourself!"
"it is good."
He went to the dressing room and chose a long red down jacket and fleece-lined leggings so she would be more comfortable.
Shen Wantang didn't say anything and just dressed casually.
After changing her clothes, she went downstairs and drank some hot milk.
Before they had finished drinking, Wang Manjuan and the others arrived!
Shen Wantang happily went to greet them, and she hugged Wang Manjuan: "Mom, Dad! Brother, Sister-in-law, you've finally arrived."
"Mom and Dad, brother and sister-in-law," Ji Yushi called out to them.
"Hey! Long time no see, how are you?" Shen Zhengyi looked at Ji Yu as the two chatted as they went inside.
Shen Wantang pulled Wang Manjuan inside.
Shen Tingxiao and Li Shiman exchanged a smile and walked in hand in hand.
Li Nanxi, who was supervising the kitchen, came out when she heard the noise: "Oh! We've finally arrived. You've worked hard. Please sit down! There's fresh fruit on the table."
"What are you busy with?" Wang Manjuan looked at her and got up to go find her.
Li Nanxi quickly waved her hand: "I'm not busy with anything! Please sit down. You must be tired after such a long drive."
"I've been sitting for quite a while, so I wanted to stand up and see what you were doing!" Wang Manjuan said.
"Let's go!" Li Nanxi smiled, and the two of them went to the kitchen together.
Seeing how close the two of them were, Shen Wantang felt genuinely happy.
Ji Yushi, Shen Zhengyi, Shen Tingxiao, and Lu Xiao were chatting. They seemed to have a lot in common.
Ji Qianqian was in her room recovering from childbirth; she had given birth to a girl.
Shen Wantang took Li Shiman to her room to play.
"Sister-in-law, two sisters-in-law." Ji Qianqian smiled at the two of them, while the baby was playing in her crib.
She doesn't cry or make a fuss, she's very well-behaved, and her name is Lu Aiqian.
"The baby is so cute." Li Shiman stepped forward and looked at the child, saying, "I didn't know you had already given birth, otherwise I would have prepared a gift."
"It's okay. Everyone's busy at this time, preparing for the New Year. Besides, we didn't announce it." Ji Qianqian smiled and shook her head.
As the saying goes, three women make a drama, and the three of them were chatting about all sorts of gossip that had happened recently.
Shen Wantang then realized that she hadn't heard the system's voice in a long time. Could it be that it's gone?
[System, are you still there?]
[What's wrong, host?]
So you're still around! I thought you'd just quietly disappeared!
[No, host, I'm sticking with you for life.]
[But your ending is already clear: you're happy and fulfilled, and you hardly need me anymore.]
[After a while, I will fall into a deep sleep. I will wake up if the host calls me.]
"I see... okay."
Ji Qianqian was taken aback; it had been a long time since she had heard her sister-in-law's heartfelt words. Hearing them suddenly felt a little strange.
It was lunchtime soon.
Lu Xiao came to call them for dinner, and Ji Qianqian also came downstairs to eat, wearing comfortable pajamas.
With air conditioning at home, she can move around freely.
We had a great time eating together! It was lively, and everyone chatted.
