The red envelopes were never too large, often given with the sole intention of spreading joy and happiness, rather than for show. Children had money to buy snacks, adults heard auspicious words, and received positive psychological suggestions. It was a win-win situation, and such a New Year never lacked flavor.

As time passed, Gu Zi grew up and left her hometown. Other places did not have such customs, and with the passage of time, the flavor of the New Year became increasingly diluted. Like many of her peers, Gu Zi gradually stopped paying much attention to the New Year. If it weren’t for the book that brought her here, she felt that she would have almost forgotten the feeling of the New Year. This year was truly wonderful.

The next day was the first day of the New Year, a good day to visit friends and relatives. Gu Zi, having stayed up until midnight with everyone to celebrate the New Year, and only going to bed after setting off the door-opening firecrackers, found it somewhat difficult to get up in the morning. When Li Hua came to find her, she was still in a daze, as if dreaming. She dreamt of the scene where she was telling stories to Su Bing and his brothers the night before.

“Opening the door and setting off firecrackers at midnight on the first day of the New Year is a tradition,” she explained, “because it is said that the ferocious Nian beast would come out to cause trouble on the first day of the New Year. People were very troubled by this. Gradually, they discovered that it was afraid of the color red and the sound of explosions. So, at midnight on the first day of the New Year, people would set off firecrackers in front of their own doors in order to drive away the Nian beast and ensure peace for the coming year…”

She had fallen asleep on Su Shen’s shoulder last night, sleeping soundly, though not for long. The temperature was low, and it was very cold. She didn’t want to get up now, but when her sister-in-law arrived, she realized this and forced her eyes open, sitting up. “Sister-in-law, what time is it now?”

Li Hua sat on the edge of the bed, looking at her sister-in-law who she had woken up. She felt a little guilty, but she had no choice. She really needed to talk to her. “It’s almost six o’clock. I’m sorry for disturbing your sleep. I need to go back to my mother’s house with Lin Cheng to pay a New Year visit. We need to leave early, so I had to wake you up.”

Gu Zi finally forced herself to wake up. She pulled the blanket over Su Le, who was still sound asleep next to her, and looked at Li Hua. “What’s the matter? I know you’re not in a hurry, and you wouldn’t call me if you were.”

Li Hua nodded. “That’s right. Didn’t Gui Hua ask me to help her ask Lin Hun’s intentions before? Now that they have confirmed their relationship, I’m going back today, and Gui Hua is also going to Lin Hun’s house to pay a New Year visit. Gui Hua asked me to help her bring up the matter of marriage. What do you think? Should I help?”

Gu Zi joked, “Gui Hua is really capable. She has already won over Lin Hun. But isn’t she a bit too eager? Is she really planning to marry Lin Hun during the New Year?”

Li Hua laughed. “Isn’t that the truth? I never saw Gui Hua so eager to get married before. But at the moment, Lin Hun’s intentions are not very clear, and that’s where my dilemma lies.”

Gu Zi understood. If Lin Hun didn’t plan to discuss marriage so soon, it would be quite awkward for Li Hua to bring it up. She gave her sister-in-law some advice, saying, “Then don’t ask Lin Hun. Didn’t you say that Lin Hun’s grandmother really likes Gui Hua? Then just ask Lin Hun’s grandmother directly. Gui Hua is such a good catch, if Lin Hun doesn’t marry her soon, someone else will, and he will be at a loss.”

Li Hua was surprised. “So you mean, don’t care about Lin Hun’s intentions and let his grandmother decide? That doesn’t seem quite right. Even if the two of them end up together, I feel there will be a barrier.”

Gu Zi shook his head and explained, “That’s not what I mean. Actually, I was just advising you to go and casually mention it to his grandmother. Old people always hope that their children will settle down as soon as possible.

“Since his grandmother likes Gui Hua, if you mention it, she will naturally urge Lin Hun to consider marriage. If Lin Hun is willing, he will propose to Gui Hua himself. If he is not willing, then it is his own wish, and it won’t be considered forced.”

Li Hua slapped her thigh, suddenly understanding how to proceed. She bid farewell to Gu Zi and left with Lin Cheng.

Gu Zi no longer felt sleepy. She got up and washed, and just as she had changed her clothes, she saw Su Shen carrying a bowl of steamed dumplings in. She heard him say, “Your breakfast, do you want to eat it now?”

The voice came from above her head. At this moment, she was standing next to him, his presence was very strong. Gu Zi felt that it must be because her husband was so tall that his oppressive presence was so strong. It was hard not to notice him.

Today, he was wearing a gray shirt, the hem of which was neatly tucked into his suit trousers. His waistline was clear, and his figure appeared even more tall and straight. His temperament was restrained and steady. Gu Zi couldn’t help but exclaim, “What a feast for the eyes!”
