On New Year's Eve, Wen Cai made a table full of dishes. Although the table was not big, Qiao Shaorong was shocked when he saw it and smiled helplessly: "How can I finish cooking so much?"

"I have to make it even if I can't finish it." Wen Cai smiled, "When I was the only one with my mother and I, I had to cook so many dishes during the Chinese New Year, so I want to make auspicious!"

"I have been abroad for many years and have almost forgotten all these customs." Qiao Shaorong sat down and smiled, "Okay, you can reminisce about it."

"I haven't had a good New Year for many years. After my mother passed away, I was the only one. Every year, the New Year's Eve dinner was the next plate of dumplings." Wen Cai paused and said, "I went to Vancouver later and always forgot the New Year's time. Whenever I remembered it, it might be the February of the lunar calendar."

"So, tonight is really worth celebrating." Qiao Shaorong said with a smile without raising the topic in an unhappy direction.

Wen Cai smiled and nodded again: "Yes, I really deserve a drink to celebrate."

“Do you have wine at home?”

Wen Cai slapped his head: "Oh, I forgot to buy it!"

She hurriedly took off her skirt and said, "I'll go to the supermarket outside the community to buy it, but that supermarket is small and I guess I can't buy any good wine."

"I'm very casual." Qiao Shaorong smiled and then stood up, "I'd better go."

"No, no, no, no." Wen Cai quickly stopped him, "You are a guest, how can you buy it? I'll go back soon."

She pinched her wallet and went downstairs. It was already dark. She hurried outside the community. The supermarket was about to close. Wen Cai rushed in and bought a bottle of red wine. She said thank you and Happy New Year to the owner, and then walked back with her things.

When I walked to the Bentley, two children suddenly ran here, playing and joking. A little boy suddenly hit the car and then fell to the ground.

Wen Cai was startled and hurriedly went up to help the child up: "Is it okay? Are you falling?"

During the Chinese New Year, the children are all fierce, not to mention that they are little boys, so they are not so careless. They quickly stood up and shook their heads: "It's okay, thank you aunt."

After saying that, he ran away again and went to play with his previous child.

Wen Cai squatted in place, smiling at their figures running away, and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.

In the closed car next to him, someone in the driver's seat had his eyes on her face, and he could not come back to his senses for a long time.

If the child is still there, he might be like the little boy just now, and he can run and dance, right?

Wen Cai watched there for a long time, until his hands and feet were frozen cold, and finally came to his senses, got up, and slowly walked towards the unit where he lived.

The moment I walked to the door, someone in the community suddenly set off the first fireworks of tonight. The huge and bright flowers bloomed in the black velvet night sky, which was so beautiful.

Wen Cai raised his head, glanced at it, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then walked upstairs again.

Song Xiyuan took all this in his sight. After waiting for a while, he suddenly saw her appear on the balcony with Nannan, pointing the fireworks in the sky to Nannan. Nannan clapped her hands and laughed.

He felt a little moved, and suddenly took out the phone and dialed a phone.

Half an hour later, a truck of fireworks was sent over. Because it was a small city, the restrictions on fireworks were not strictly limited. Everyone had to play and watch, and it was enough to be lively.

Soon someone walked to his car and knocked on the window. He finally rolled down the window. The other party hurriedly said respectfully: "Mr. Song, the fireworks you want are delivered."

Song Xiyuan nodded and responded, lit another cigarette before saying, "Start let it go."

"Yes." The man agreed, turned around and returned to the truck, directing people to lift the fireworks one by one and put them aside.

The owners who had finished the New Year's Eve dinner early couldn't help but gathered together to watch, guessing which family bought so many fireworks to set off.

The first round of fireworks quickly rose into the sky, opening the curtain of tonight's fireworks event. Immediately afterwards, more and more gorgeous and dazzling fireworks continued to rise into the sky, intertwining in the night sky, forming an extremely gorgeous scenery.

The residents in the community either went downstairs to join in the fun or watched on their own balcony. In short, the whole community was crowded with the fireworks above their heads.

With so many people, he could see the person standing on the balcony of Block C on the 5th floor at a glance.

She held Nannan in her arms, constantly pointing to the fireworks in the sky for Nannan to see. Nannan was so happy that she kept patting her hands and laughing.

Song Xiyuan sat in the car with a faint smile on his lips.

Qiao Shaorong brought two glasses of wine to the balcony, handed one to Wen Cai, and leaned on the railing to watch.

"So many fireworks don't seem to be put on by residents." Qiao Shaorong said suddenly.

"What were you saying?" The fireworks were too loud, and Wen Cai couldn't hear what he was saying, so he raised the volume and asked.

Qiao Shaorong smiled and raised the volume: "I said, maybe the municipal government has chosen this community and is doing fireworks events here!"

Wen Cai laughed, then couldn't help but rub his ears and said, "It's good to look good, it's too noisy!"

"Then go in." Qiao Shaorong said, "If you close the door, maybe it will be better."

Wen Cai nodded and said to Nannan: "Nannan, we're going in for dinner."

"No!" Nannan pouted, "I want to see the fireworks, I want to see the fireworks!"

Wen Cai smiled helplessly and put her down: "Nannan is watching here obediently, mom goes to cook dumplings for Nannan."

Nannan nodded, her eyes still staring at the fireworks in the sky.

Wen Cai smiled helplessly, then walked in with Qiao Shaorong and said, "She has never seen fireworks many times, so she is so excited."

"Such a grand firework is indeed rare."

The two of them made dumplings with laughter and looked at Nannan on the balcony from time to time. The little girl was always excited and raised her head high. Every time a firework bloomed in the sky, she would "wow" once.

But no matter how beautiful the fireworks are, they should be almost stopped until nine o'clock, because on New Year's Eve, for everyone, it is not only the day for the New Year's Eve, but also the day for the whole family to watch the Spring Festival Gala together. If the fireworks are put down, it may become a disturbing person.

The person who set off the fireworks quickly came over: "Mr. Song, is it almost the same? There are still ten cylinders left, why don't I come here to put them for you at around twelve o'clock?"

Song Xiyuan's eyes kept looking at the small figure on the balcony on the 5th floor, and shook his head lightly: "No need, you can go."

After saying that, I remembered something again, took out my wallet and took out a stack of money: "Thank you for your hard work, thank you."

The people were immediately overjoyed, took the money and thanked him repeatedly, and then left.

On the balcony, Nannan waited with her neck tilted for a long time, but her neck was sore, but she could no longer see the beautiful fireworks rising into the night sky, and she jumped in disappointment: "Mom, why are there no fireworks?"

Wen Cai walked out and picked her up: "Because Nannan should eat!" After that, she looked downstairs and suddenly found that there were about ten unwashed fireworks piled up at the base of the wall, so she pointed it to Nannan: "Look at Nannan, see if there are any fireworks there, and when it is twelve o'clock, it will be displayed for Nannan again."

"Then Nannan should eat as much as possible! Wait for the fireworks!"

"So good." Wen Cai kissed her daughter on the face and walked in with her daughter in her arms.

Soon, the residents who had previously gathered in the community also went upstairs and went home to watch the Spring Festival Gala. There were only a few sporadic children playing downstairs and were reluctant to go home.

The lights of thousands of houses are still loneliness.

He sat in the car and smoked quietly. Halfway through, the phone suddenly rang. He glanced at Wen Xin's name on it and answered: "My beauty Wen, I wish you a happy New Year."

"Stop being slick!" Wen Xin said angrily, "Where did you go crazy on New Year's Eve? Qin Yang said you don't come back for the New Year, where would you go if you don't come back?"

"No." Song Xiyuan responded lazily, "I made an appointment with Si Nian to have a drink."

"What kind of wine should I drink? Wouldn't it be better to ask Si Nian to come and celebrate the New Year together? Isn't this the case in previous years?"

“This year is different…”

“What’s the difference?”

Song Xiyuan paused and said, "Sinian is in a bad mood. I, a buddy, have to accompany him, right?"

Wen Xin said in confusion: "When did Si Nian fall in love? Which girl from which family? Why did they separate?"

Song Xiyuan coughed twice: "My beauty Wen, please put away your curiosity at the right time. At this time, you want me to tell you this. Do you think it is appropriate? Let's do this first, I may not come back tonight, I will die."

Wen Xin couldn't help but whisper a few more words before hanging up the phone.

He sat in the car and smoked all the cigarettes in the car. He remembered that there was a supermarket outside, so he walked outside and wanted to buy a pack of cigarettes.

Unexpectedly, when I walked out, I found that the supermarket had been closed, and nearby could be seen. Apart from the lights of thousands of houses, only street lights were left.

Today, maybe even the homeless people gathered together to watch the Spring Festival Gala?

Standing in the wet and cold air in City B, he took out his breath and returned to the car, took out his cell phone, turned on the TV, and started playing the Spring Festival Gala.

When the host of the program started counting down the New Year, the city's night sky became lively again, and the sound of firecrackers and fireworks rang out in an endless stream, even more than before.

I looked up habitually, but I found that a small figure of Nannan appeared on the balcony on the 5th floor. At this moment, the little girl was holding the railing tightly, tilting her neck to look forward to another fireworks event.

Song Xiyuan sat in the car and laughed silently. The next moment, he opened the car door and walked out.

Walking to the place where fireworks were piled under the wall, he rolled up his sleeves and moved the fireworks out one by one, lit two of them at the same time, and retreated to the side.

"Wow, so beautiful!" Nannan clapped her hands and smiled again, "Mom, come and see!"

Wen Cai drank two glasses of wine, her face turned red. She was packing the dishes on the table at this moment. When she heard Nannan calling herself, she just smiled: "Nannan, be good, mom will come to see you later."

Nannan didn't care about her and quickly turned her head to look at the fireworks.

Seeing this, Qiao Shaorong couldn't help but laugh: "This little girl really likes fireworks."

"Not that." Wen Cai said, "If it were normal, I was already sleepy at nine o'clock. Today I told her that there were fireworks later, but I was just holding on to this point. I admire her."

Qiao Shaorong smiled and helped her put the dishes into the kitchen, then said again: "You are tired today, so you should go back soon."

Wen Cai nodded and said, "I'll send you down."

Qiao Shaorong nodded, and then Wen Cai reached out to greet Nannan: "Nannan, we're sending Uncle Qiao away."

Nannan became awkward again: "No, Nannan wants to see the fireworks."

Wen Cai stepped forward and picked her up: "Be good, let's go down and see, how many children are there?"

She pointed downstairs, but Nannan looked over carefully. When she saw this, she suddenly saw a familiar figure. Just as she was about to speak, she suddenly remembered something and glanced at Wen Cai blankly: "Mom..."

"What's wrong?" Wen Cai thought she had something to say, so he hurriedly said.
To be continued...
