Although most households typically closed their doors after dinner, it was New Year’s Eve. Since everyone had to stay up until midnight, they left their doors open.

Usually, everyone would be asleep after dinner. However, everyone was awake at this moment.

When Su Wenxian and Su Wenwu went outside, they saw several villagers laying their firecrackers along the street. The sound of firecrackers went on nonstop throughout the night.

Moreover, there were more people in Su Teng Village than before. New village members had occupied all the empty houses and spaces in the village.

These families had just moved into Su Teng Village according to its requirements. Therefore, the village’s population grew, making the New Year celebrations livelier.

People also lived in the staff dormitories beside the embroidery shop. The sound of firecrackers even echoed from that side of the village. Some wanted to sleep early but could not because of the firecrackers.

After setting off the firecrackers, Su Wenwu and Su Wenxian returned to the house to eat. Even though people would be asleep now, no one felt sleepy.

Instead, they ate and talked. Even Chief Su and Grandaunt Su felt energetic.

When midnight arrived, everyone wished each other, “Happy Chinese New Year, everyone!”

The family could hear the neighbors wishing each other from the streets. There were even more firecrackers at night. The Su family went around to wish each other.

Everyone first wished Chief Su and his wife, and the kids wished their elders a happy Chinese New Year.

“Happy New Year, Granduncle and Grandaunt.”

“Yes, happy New Year, everyone.”

The elders had also prepared enough red packets to give to everyone. Su Binglan received many red packets and gave some to Su Xuexuan, Su Xuehai, and Su Xuerui.

The three little ones received red packets when they wished their aunt. They laughed when they received their red packets. The New Year gave everyone a fresh lease on life. They knew their year would only improve from here.

After midnight, the village finally quieted down. Everyone went home to sleep after setting off just a few more firecrackers. As the family left, Grandaunt Su filled their baskets with things. She even gave them the remaining food to bring home.

Su Fengzhang, Su Fengmao, and Su Fengzhi lived only a few steps from Chief Su and Grandaunt Su l s place. As the trio walked home with their families, they looked up and realized it was snowing.

“Hey, it’s snowing. Early snow is a promising sign of a bumper harvest. It’s a good sign that indicates a prosperous year.”

“Yes, that’s it!”

Everyone was excited to see the snow.

After returning home, Su Binglan and the others warmed up their brick beds. They only needed to start a fire and put a few pieces of firewood into the furnace. They also used charcoal to keep the house warm.

Su Binglan and her husband washed up first. Afterward, Su binglan felt relaxed and sleepy. However, she could not fall asleep for a while. She turned to look at Luo Jin’an, who had just sat on the bed and removed his coat.

She looked at him with a burning gaze, and he paused.

Su Binglan looked at him under the candlelight and felt like Luo Jin’an had just walked out of a painting. She turned over and rested her chin in her hands, coquettishly calling his name, “Oh, hubby.”

The way she addressed Luo Jin’an reminded him of his past. Of course, he thought about when Su Binglan regained consciousness after falling into the water.

Luo Jin’an lowered his head and smiled at Su Binglan. “Yes, what is it?”

His voice was gentle when he spoke to Su Binglan. It was incredibly alluring.

Su Binglan waved at Luo Jin’an and lowered her head. Then she moved closer and whispered, “Happy New Year, hubby.”

Luo Jin’an smiled when he heard her voice. He stroked her hair and said, “Happy New Year.”

He took out a red packet and handed it to her as he spoke.

Su Binglan was stunned. “What’s this?”

“It’s a red packet for you.”

“l didn’t expect you to prepare a red packet for me. I didn’t even prepare one

for you.” Holding the red packet, she hugged Luo Jin’an and kissed his cheek express her happiness.

However, Luo Jinan did not let go and hugged her tightly. He kissed her head and said, “Bing, you’ll be fifteen this year.”

Su Binglan had almost forgotten that she would be of age this year. Her heart pounded when she realized it. Somehow, she felt there was a deeper meaning behind what her husband said.

“But you’ll be nineteen this year, Jin’an.”

Luo Jin’an’s gaze was profound as he looked at Su Binglan. His eyes resembled a whirlpool that could suck her in. He said, “You need to grow up quickly.”

Su Binglan blushed when she heard that. However, Luo Jin’an took a large red packet from his pocket and handed it to her. “Your brother gave you this and told me to wish you a happy New Year for him.”

Upon hearing that, Su Binglan knew her husband was talking about Lan

Ruozhu. She asked, “Didn’t Ruozhu say he’d join us for the New Year?”

She even told the eagle to stay by Lan Ruozhu’s side so that he could deliver messages.

Luo Jin’an said, “Ruozhu has some matters to tend to, so he won’t be able to come for a while. He said he’d visit during the first month of the lunar year. We could also go visit him in the prefecture.”

Su Binglan tightened her grip on the big red packet and nodded. She missed her brother and thought it would be better if he were here. Her heart ached for Lan Ruozhu.

“Then let’s hurry to the prefecture to see him and stay for a few days. Then, we can bring him here for a few days to experience Su Teng Village’s liveliness.

Father and Mother miss him too.’

Shen Qiuhua and Su Fengmao had prepared red packets for Lan Ruozhu, but he did not show up for New Year’s Eve.

“Your brother tried his best to come,” Luo Jin’an said.

Su Binglan understood the responsibilities her brother bore. He had to maintain the deceased royal’s mansion. With his presence, the people of Chu Country could enjoy peaceful and stable lives.

Su Binglan held the red packet and looked toward the prefecture’s direction, saying, “Happy Chinese New Year, Ruozhu..”
