On the fifth day, Granny Zhu's family returned from their hometown.
Next door, Grandma Lin had already started making lanterns, planning to sell them during the Lantern Festival. Xie Shang was skilled with his hands and learned how to do it after watching a few times. Tongtong wanted a little bear lantern, and Xie Shang was making one for her.
Wen Changling's phone rang, and she checked the caller ID before stepping outside the courtyard to answer.
"How have you been lately?"
Wen Changling did not respond.
"Happy New Year, Wen Changling." The tone from the other end was very relaxed, as if reminiscing, "Say something, let me hear your voice."
She spoke, sincerely cursing someone with all seriousness, "Happy New Year, may you reach paradise soon."
The person on the other end laughed and replied, "Then I wish you get what you wish for."
Getting what one wishes for, this phrase was a knock reminding her.
