Wind Chaser: Rebirth in the 18th Year of the Republic of China

Auspicious snow indicates a good harvest, and spring breeze welcomes the new year.

It snowed in Yan'an on New Year's Day.

The cold weather is raging, but it cannot stop people’s yearning for the future and their enthusiasm for the coming of the new year.

The conditions here were a bit difficult, but everyone still had four dishes and one soup.

Potato shaved noodles, steamed pumpkin, Ganquan dried tofu, scrambled eggs with mushrooms, Qianqian rice to drink, and fried cakes, oily steamed buns, pancakes and other staple foods.

Although it is not a big meal, the food is very local.

Comrades from the National Bank and the Special Company all sat in the office, set up a few tables, and had a lively New Year's Eve dinner.

"I wish you all a prosperous new year, and I also wish our revolution will succeed soon and the war will end soon."

Chief Mo used water instead of wine to send his blessings to all comrades.

"I hope everyone will be happy and all their wishes will come true in the new year."

Wei Ruolai stood up and added, glancing at Shen Jinzhen with a burning gaze.

"Hey, hey, hey, you bastard, are you really blessing everyone or the near future? You are not sincere. I will make you drink three cups."

Niu Chunmiao couldn't help but join in the fun, and the others followed suit with a smile.

Shen Jinzhen's face flushed, but Wei Ruolai looked calm as he poured himself three glasses of water and drank them all in one breath.

"In the new year, I hope everyone can have meat every day and live a peaceful and prosperous life. I also hope to succeed Kong Lingzheng and become the commander of the special company!"

Yuanbao stood up with a smile, and while the company commander was recuperating in Ruijin, he couldn't help but join in the fun.

The other comrades applauded his courage and could not help but push and shove him, and started to call him "Company Commander" directly.

When it was Shen Jinzhen's turn, she stood up and looked at everyone. "First of all, I wish you all can realize your wishes. I wish that in the new year, the organization can achieve the final victory, and Ruolai and I can stay together until old age."

When Shen Jinzhen finished speaking, the booing around him got louder again.

"Kiss me, kiss me!"

Normally, Wei Ruolai is their deputy section chief, and Shen Jinzhen is their instructor, so they can't joke around. But now that it is the New Year, everyone couldn't help but join in the booing.

When Wei Ruolai saw that Jinzhen took the initiative to express her affection, he stood up, walked to her side, and when the people around them were cheering and reaching a climax, he hugged Jinzhen in his arms.

"Forget about the kiss, just drink one more glass of wedding wine with everyone."

Wei Ruolai raised his cup and drank another glass of water, then spoke with a smile, but the comrades in the special company were not so easy to explain.

"No, two more cups!"

"Three cups. I want to see the deputy section chief get drunk once!"

……

Although they were drinking water, everyone was still enthusiastic and welcomed twelve o'clock together with great enthusiasm.

"Well, we have ushered in the new year, and everyone has eaten and drunk enough. Go back and have a good rest, and cheer up for work tomorrow."

Amidst laughter and joy, Chief Mo announced the end of tonight's event.

After everyone worked together to restore the house to its original state, they each went about their own business.

"My dear, Happy New Year."

In this strange land, there are neither colorful fireworks nor the hustle and bustle of Shanghai, and it is thousands of miles away from my hometown.

But for Wei Ruo, as long as Jin Zhen is by his side, it is enough.

"Fun."

Jin Zhen responded with a gentle smile, his eyes twinkling like stars.

The two looked at each other tacitly, whispered good night to each other, and went back to wash up.
