There was not much smell of cigarette smoke in the house. Ji Ruoyu thought that considering the current domestic air quality, there was actually no point in worrying about the slightest smell of cigarette smoke.

Everyone sat down happily. They heard the sound of crackling firecrackers outside the door, and saw Ji Yu quickly running into the house after lighting the firecrackers. Everyone laughed.

Zhuang Ze took a bag from his hand, and inside it was a bottle of good wine he brought, just one bottle. After all, it was the Chinese New Year, the atmosphere still had to be there, and you still had to drink some wine. Even a doctor from the Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery

Don't even think about running.

The girls all filled up their drinks. Vivian followed everyone's example and raised their glasses together. Everyone said various blessings. Good luck at work, success in career, safety and health, and the birth of a baby soon.

Ji Ruoyu naturally received the most congratulations, because she was different now. Her status as a pregnant woman naturally gave her some privileges.

Vivian didn't quite know what to say, so she could only say "happy new year". After everyone wished each other, they all raised their heads and drank, and then sat down to eat.

Ji Ruoyu took advantage of the beginning of the dinner to take out all the gifts. Naturally, the first one to give was Cui Lijiang. The tea had been packaged very well. When he handed it to Cui Lijiang, his face was full of smiles.

They all smiled and said, "Hey, you still spend this money. There is a lot of tea at home. You are pregnant now, so don't worry about it in the future. I just came to say hello to you for the Chinese New Year, so I'm not too tired."

"I know you like tea, and it's my sincere wish." When Ji Ruoyu said this, he saw the expression on Qi Meiyun's face looking at the tea in Cui Lijiang's hand with envy, and there was also a little expectation in the envy.

.

Ji Ruoyu took out a second box with the jewelry store's logo printed on it, "Aunt Qi, this is for you. You have worked hard these days."

When Qi Meiyun took it, she finally had a smile on her face. Even the sinister look in her eyes that she had become accustomed to in the past instantly dissipated. When she opened the box, she saw a gold bracelet. It looked very beautiful.

I liked it very much and immediately asked Ji Yu to bring it to me.

After Ji Yu brought it to her, he looked at Ji Ruoyu with a smile on his face, "I know sister won't treat me badly, right?"

Qi Meiyun poked his forehead with her finger, "You know how to be glib!"

Ji Ruoyu smiled and said helplessly, "Of course I won't treat you badly, Ghost Spirit!"

With that, he handed the watch box to him. Ji Yu obviously liked it very much and immediately put it on his wrist. The more he looked at it, the more he liked it. Ji Ruoyu said angrily, "If you take the exam,

No, let’s see how I deal with you!”

Everyone became happy, and naturally Vivian and Du Xiuqi didn't come empty-handed. Some supplements were originally planned to be taken back from Qu Wenyan's place during the New Year, but now they were naturally given to Ji Ruoyu to replenish his health.

Ji Ruoyu looked at his family celebrating the New Year in such a lively way, with everyone looking happy and joyful. When he thought about Qu Wenyan, he suddenly felt that he had done something wrong for himself.

During the meal, Cui Lijiang was anxious to ask Ji Ruoyu to call Su Hang, saying that it was Chinese New Year and what was wrong with her being alone in a foreign country.

Ji Ruoyu sometimes felt that her father-in-law's enthusiasm for her mother was simply... unbelievably excessive. If she hadn't firmly believed in Cui Lijiang's feelings for Fan Yunrui, she would have worried that Cui Lijiang would fall in love with someone else...

When he called, Su Hang seemed to be in a good mood, and there was a smile in his words. Lu Qingfan turned on the speaker of the phone and heard Su Hang saying on the other end, "Just have a good New Year over there.

I'm not happy about this, but I'm on my way to the hospital now. I've arrived in California. Qingfan, your mother has already called me a few times and asked me to come over to celebrate the New Year. I'll be there soon, so don't worry about me.

."

Ji Ruoyu smiled slightly thinking that the two sisters Fan Yunshu and Fan Yunrui were really thoughtful. Then Cui Lijiang exchanged a few words with Su Hang before hanging up the phone.

Normally during the New Year's Eve dinner, one would naturally have to talk to relatives who could not get together. Halfway through the meal, Lu Qingfan took his tablet and chatted with his two mothers, a father and his mother-in-law who were far away in the United States.

Had a video call.

Everyone was very happy and obviously immersed in the New Year atmosphere.

After dinner, everyone sat down in the living room, and finally opened a table of mahjong and a table of poker. It wouldn't be the New Year without playing cards, but playing cards during the New Year is a great time.

Ji Ruoyu was also approved to play two rounds and went to the table with great enthusiasm. Now that she was two people, her aura was indeed different. She beat herself three times in a row and made the other three corners miserable.

It was winter again, and it was getting dark soon. Everyone took a rest and sat in the living room. Some were sitting on the sofa and some were sitting on the carpet. They were eating fruits, cracking nuts, drinking fragrant tea, and having a lot of fun together.

Watching the gala, the atmosphere was so harmonious that the whole room seemed to be filled with festive warmth.

Vivian felt that this atmosphere was so good, and kept whispering to Du Xiu Qi how happy she was. Du Xiu Qi had a smile on his face, while Lu Qingfan looked sideways at his wife who was leaning on his shoulder.

, there is also a slight smile on the corner of the lips.

The two elders were naturally happy when they saw the younger generation being so harmonious. Ji Yu lamented that he was alone and could bring a girl back to celebrate the New Year for him. These words attracted all kinds of criticism.

He started thinking about this at a young age.

Halfway through the gala, Ji Ruoyu was already so sleepy that he almost fell asleep several times.

Lu Qingfan felt sorry for her and wanted her to go upstairs to sleep, but she refused to agree and insisted on keeping up the New Year's Eve. She said that this was the first New Year in her new home and she had to keep up the New Year's Eve. She also said that she had to watch the New Year.

A mouse marries a girl, that was something adults said to deceive children when they were young, but she is the only one who continues to use it now.

Lu Qingfan couldn't resist her, so he let her lie on his lap and sleep for a while. When the New Year's Eve came, they would set off firecrackers, and she would definitely wake up.

Ji Ruoyu gave in and fell asleep soon after. He kept dreaming. In his dream, he dreamed of many people, including Lu Qingfan, Yan Chen, An Chaomu, Qi Chuan, Yu Wenjun, and Zhu Kai, everyone's

Her expression looked so sad, but Yu Wenjun hugged her and was crying. She asked Wenjun why he was crying, but Wenjun didn't say anything. Ji Ruoyu was a little puzzled, and turned around to ask Lu Qingfan what happened, but his eyes were blocked.

He could no longer be found, as if he had just disappeared into thin air.

This dream frightened Ji Ruoyu. He almost woke up from his sleep. He subconsciously grabbed something with his hand. When he opened his eyes, he saw Lu Qingfan's face. It was reassuring. Only then did he see that his fingers were tightly

Holding Lu Qingfan's sleeve.

This didn't seem to be a good dream. Ji Ruoyu felt a little panicked on this festive day.
