After dinner, Liu Pingan led his brothers and sisters out of the house. He was holding a long string of firecrackers, his face full of excitement. Several other children followed behind him, each of them eager to know what would happen next.

They trotted all the way to the yard. Liu Pingan chose a sturdy tree and carefully hung the firecrackers on the treetop to make sure they wouldn't fall. Lele was a little scared, but full of curiosity. She hid tightly in Liu Pingan's arms, only showing one eye, staring at the string of firecrackers nervously and excitedly.

Xiaoqiang and Xiaotao were different from Lele. They jumped and danced with excitement, clapped their hands, and kept shouting, "Let's set off firecrackers! Let's set off firecrackers!" Xiaoxia and Xiaoyan stood aside, looking at their brothers and sisters, and couldn't help but smile at each other. Although they were not as lively and active as Xiaoqiang and Xiaotao, their eyes were also shining with anticipation and joy.

At this moment, the whole yard was filled with a joyful and lively atmosphere, and everyone's face was filled with happy smiles.

At this time, Liu Jianjun came over with a smile, holding a lit match in his hand. He walked to the firecracker, bent down, and carefully lit the fuse. The fuse burned instantly, making a "chi chi" sound. Everyone held their breath, waiting for that moment to come.

Suddenly, there was a "crackling" sound, and the firecrackers exploded on the treetops, with colorful sparks flying everywhere, lighting up the whole yard. Lele screamed in fright, but then laughed excitedly. Xiaoqiang and Xiaotao were so happy that they danced with joy, jumping and dancing around the firecrackers, as if this was the most wonderful moment in the world.

Liu Pingan couldn't help but laugh. He hugged Lele tightly, feeling the pure joy. He looked at the excited faces of his brothers and sisters, and his heart was filled with warmth and satisfaction. He knew that this was the taste of home, the taste of the New Year.

The sound of firecrackers gradually stopped, but the joy and warmth remained in everyone's heart for a long time. They smiled at each other and shared this beautiful and unforgettable night.
