After working for a long time, I finally had the New Year's Eve dinner at four o'clock in the afternoon.

Qiao Qisheng, who helped set the dishes and chopsticks, walked to Xia Lin who was stealing meat: "What do you want to drink? I'll pour it for you."

Xia Lin stuffed a sliced ​​elbow into his mouth: "I want to drink grapes."

While Qiao Qisheng was pouring drinks for Xia Lin, Yang Pingping came over with the last plate of cold dishes and patted Xia Lin's hand: "We're still eating, we haven't eaten yet."

Xia Lin's oily hands grabbed a large piece of meat and ran to the side, and stuffed it into his mouth in a stormy manner while laughing, not forgetting to puff his cheeks and boast: "It's super delicious."

"I just know how to eat." Yang Pingping scolded, "Go, wash your hands and come here quickly, it's dirty."

After Xia Lin washed his hands, the others had already served the table, so they were waiting for him.

He sat on the chair and wiped the water on his body: "Mom, can we start getting stuck?"

"Let's eat, let's eat, look at the child is so hungry, it doesn't matter much during Chinese New Year." Seeing what Yang Pingping wanted to say, Yan Hongjuan hurriedly spoke first, and then smiled at Xia Lin, "Eat, eat."

Xia Lin thought she had tacit approval, and was holding the chopsticks to pick them up, when Yang Pingping slapped her hands: "You don't know the rules, everyone hasn't eaten yet, you've been eating for a long time, just wait."

Xia Lin, who was hit again, looked at Qiao Qisheng aggrievedly, seeing him shaking his head at him, reluctantly put down his chopsticks, and waited to hear his mother's inscription saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new.

Finally, everyone raised their glasses together: "Happy Chinese New Year!"

After the New Year's Eve dinner, Xia Lin sat on the sofa and watched cartoons. Qiao Qisheng sat over with a plate of melon seeds and peanuts, grabbed a handful and handed it over: "Do you want to eat?"

Xia Lin glanced at the four red peanuts in his hand, tilted his head and leaned on his shoulder: "Brother, help me peel them."

"Can't you peel it yourself?" Although Qiao Qisheng said this, he had already put the seeds he had picked up back on the plate and began to peel them one by one.

Xia Lin stared at the TV screen all the time, peeled off a peanut candy in his hand and handed it over: "Here, brother, look, I have peeled candy for you to eat."

"Okay." Qiao Qisheng responded, concentrating on peeling melon seeds while watching cartoons with him, "Don't you want to watch the Spring Festival Gala?"

"Mom will watch it later, I'll watch cartoons first." Xia Lin sat up straight, staring at the TV.

After a long time, he suddenly turned around, stared at Qiao Qisheng who had already peeled a handful of melon seeds, and asked solemnly, "Brother."

"Here, here you are." Qiao Qisheng thought that he couldn't wait to eat melon seeds, so he handed over a handful of them.

Xia Lin leaned over and ate all the melon seeds, and said vaguely: "The 5000-meter butterfly is because you asked my coach to punish you during the competition?"

Qiao Qisheng's peanut-peeling hand paused for a second, then he threw a peanut into his mouth, chewing and saying, "No, the training requires more training."

"But I heard they said it was..." Before Xia Lin could finish speaking, Qiao Qisheng blocked her mouth with a few peanuts: "Try it for me, brother."

"It's okay, it's delicious without melon seeds." Xia Lin pointed to the melon seeds over there, "Brother, I want to eat that, not this."

Qiao Qisheng nodded: "Okay, then brother will peel it for you."

After the three parents finished their work in the kitchen, to be precise, Yang Pingping came out of the kitchen and saw Qiao Qisheng commanding Qiao Qisheng to peel the melon seeds like a master, but Qiao Qisheng obeyed and helped him peel them like a little follower, shouting: "Xia Lin, eat what you want by yourself! Don't ask your brother to help you! How old are you? You'll be in elementary school in the second half of the year. Do you still think you're a kindergarten student?"

"Then I still have to go to kindergarten, then I'm a kindergarten student..." Xia Lin muttered, grabbed the large handful of melon seeds from Qiao Qisheng's hand, and stuck out her tongue at Yang Pingping provocatively, "Brother Qisheng wants Peel it for me."

"Qiao Qisheng, don't talk to him, he's spoiled." Yang Pingping said angrily.

"It's okay, auntie, I'll stay still." Qiao Qisheng didn't stop when he was injured. After peeling one, he put it aside and continued peeling.

"Xia Lin, I'm talking to you, did you hear me?" Yang Pingping raised her voice to warn him, but she wasn't really angry, she just felt that her brother wasn't so pampered.

"Got it, mom." Xia Lin pouted, stretched out her hand and pulled Qiao Qisheng, "Brother, I'm full, you don't have to peel it for me."

Qiao Qisheng raised his head to look at Yang Pingping, stopped the movement of his hands with great interest, and held the last bit of melon seeds in the palm of his hand and handed them over: "There is still a little more, I'll give you all to eat."

"Qisheng, don't give it to him, eat it yourself." As soon as Yang Pingping finished speaking, those melon seeds were snatched away by Xia Lin.

He quickly jumped down from the sofa, and while rushing into the room, he stuffed the melon seeds into his mouth, not forgetting to shout: "Mom, this year's melon seeds are very delicious."

Yang Pingping walked a few steps quickly, raised her hand and pretended to hit her: "Xia Lin! Come here!"

Sitting on the sofa, Qiao Qisheng, who realized that he had been following Yang Pingping and watching her stop when Xia Lin got into the house, sighed silently, grabbed a few peanuts from the plate, peeled them little by little, and threw them into his mouth.

If only his parents could do the same.

But this mood didn't last long. When he was eating his second handful of peanuts, Xia Chengguo came out of the kitchen, went to the corner of the living room, took a bag of fireworks and handed them to him: "Qisheng, take your brother to set off fireworks outside." Flowers? Big ones for Chinese New Year, festive."

Before Qiao Qisheng could react, Xia Lin, who was huddled inside for fear of being beaten, rushed out of the room, took the bag from Xia Chengguo, and hooked Qiao Qisheng: "Brother, let's go."

Qiao Qisheng put the last peeled peanut into his mouth, and wiped off the food residue on his hands: "Let's go, Xia Lin."

Yang Pingping: "Both of you, be safe!"

"Understood, Auntie." Qiao Qisheng held Xia Lin who had changed her clothes with one hand, and opened the door with fireworks in the other.

The open space in the community was covered with shallow snow. Qiao Qisheng dragged Xia Lin to find a place with little snow. Just as he took out the fireworks and prepared to light them, Li Yuan and Wang Changmeng appeared from nowhere: "This is the place we saw first."

Qiao Qisheng didn't want to argue with them, so he dragged Xia Lin to the side, put the shake flowers into Xia Lin's hands, and just about to light the incense with a match, Li Yuan rushed over and took more shake flowers in Xia Lin's hands Throwing it on the ground: "I told you, this place is the one we saw first!"

Originally, he wanted to celebrate the New Year and not conflict with others, and Qiao Qisheng just wanted to play with Xia Lin for a while, but he refused to let go, and said: "It is enough for a hundred flowers to bloom in such a big place, what do you want to put?"

He tilted his head to look at the cannons held by the two of them, and sneered: "That's it?"
