New Year’s Eve (1)

After breakfast the next day, the Shen Residence started getting lively. Shen Yue and Uncle Wang were taking care of the plants in the yard as Shen Wenna and Aunt Xu were making dumplings for the reunion dinner. While City Z was in the north, many families had the practice of eating dumplings for their reunion dinner, so Shen Wenna made some too.

Mu Yuchen and Xi Xiaye were handling the calligraphy couplets and lanterns.

They worked until 6 p.m. in the evening before the family had their reunion dinner joyously. Because the couple needed to hurry back to the Mu Residence, Shen Yue and Shen Wenna sent them off.

"I got Uncle Wang to put some gifts into the trunk. Give them to your grandparents and parents. Take some time to visit us after the New Year." Shen Yue stood by the door and was starting to miss Xi Xiaye already.
