Shi's father and Shi's mother got up early to cook, and when they were almost ready, they knocked on the door and asked them to get up quickly.
Jiang Yixuan nuzzled into Shi Shuo's arms like a kitten that had just woken up. Her little paws were all hidden in her fluffy pajamas, so cute and tight.
Shi Shuo kissed her forehead and coaxed her in a low voice, "It's time to get up."
"good."
Jiang Yixuan responded softly, but still looked obedient with her eyes closed.
Shi Shuo stood up carefully and picked her up directly from the bed.
The feeling of weightlessness made Jiang Yixuan exclaim and hug Shi Shuo tightly around his neck, staring at him blankly with a pair of dazed and watery almond eyes.
Like an ignorant and harmless little beast.
Shi Shuo rubbed the tip of her nose and chuckled, "It's time to get up, sleepy kid."
"ah."
Jiang Yixuan blinked and realized that today was the first day of the Lunar New Year and she had to get up early.
"You, put me down and I'll change my clothes."
"good."
Shi Shuo smiled and put her back on the bed, touched her head and ruffled her long hair, which was already messy from sleep.
Jiang Yixuan slapped his rebellious hand away, "You go wash your face first."
"Okay, I'm going to wash up."
Jiang Yixuan changed her clothes as quickly as possible. After Shi Shuo came out, she went in to wash up. When she came out, a big red envelope was handed to her.
"Happy New Year, little Yi Xuan."
"Thanks."
Jiang Yixuan stretched out her hand to take it, but Shi Shuo deliberately took it back, leaned in and smiled, "You can't just get the red envelope without saying something auspicious."
"Then... I wish you peace and joy in the new year and a smooth journey."
"not enough."
"I wish you win more championships in the new year and be happy."
"Not enough."
Jiang Yixuan opened her eyes wide and racked her brains to think of other congratulatory words.
But Shi Shuo suddenly leaned forward and kissed her on the lips, "I wish Xuanxuan loves me more in the new year and that we have more time together."
Jiang Yixuan pursed her lips and smiled happily, snatched the red envelope from his hand and shook it.
"This blessing will definitely come true."
"Then I'll feel relieved."
Jiang Yixuan happily put the red envelope into her bag and fiddled with it before going out with Shi Shuo.
When Shi Can saw them coming out, he immediately ran over happily and said, "Happy New Year. I wish my brother and sister-in-law a happy new year and good health."
Jiang Yixuan smiled even more happily, "Our mouths are so sweet."
Shi Can smiled brightly, and his eyes indicated to Shi Shuo whether it was time to get something.
Shi Shuo snorted, "This kid just wants red envelopes, but he doesn't usually do this."
"I'm an adult and going to college, and I'm not ashamed to ask for lucky money."
As he spoke, he took out a red envelope and handed it to Shi Can.
"Thank you, brother~"
For the sake of the New Year's money, let's not argue with her brother and let him take advantage of her.
Just when Shi Shuo wanted her to take the red envelope and leave, Jiang Yixuan also took out a big red envelope and handed it to Shi Can, smiling gently at her.
"I wish us success in our studies, good health, and more beauty."
"Ah! Thank you, Sister Yixuan!"
Shi Can happily gave Jiang Yixuan a bear hug.
"Then I'll put the red envelope away first."
Shi Can ran away, and Jiang Yixuan turned around to meet Shi Shuo's sad eyes.
"Why doesn't she have me?"
"She is your sister."
"She's not even a few years younger than me."
Jiang Yixuan laughed out loud, and when she saw Shi Shuo's serious look, she wanted to laugh even more. Shi Shuo pinched her chin and shook it.
"What are you laughing at?"
It turns out that this kid is not a few years younger than him, so why does she have a red envelope and he doesn't?
Shi Shuo looked like he had been greatly wronged, which made Jiang Yixuan feel a little guilty, as if she had really bullied him.
Childish ghost.
Jiang Yixuan leaned close to Shi Shuo's ear and whispered to him, "I'm all yours, what more red envelopes do you want?"
Shi Shuo's brows relaxed, that's right.
He snorted, "Okay, then I can barely forgive you."
Jiang Yixuan chuckled helplessly, "Then I would like to thank Ashuo for his tolerance and generosity."
It’s been a long time since I heard her call him Ashuo.
Shi Shuo's hair was smoothed away and he became happy again.
They walked towards the living room. Shi Can was telling Shi's father and mother that Shi Shuo was stingy and was actually jealous of her. When he saw Shi Shuo coming over, he smiled flatteringly and called "brother" obediently.
Shi Shuo didn't even bother to talk to her.
This kid knows how to speak ill of him behind his back.
"Happy New Year to uncle and aunt, I wish you good health and all the best."
"Hey! Okay!" Shi's mother smiled from ear to ear and put the red envelope in Jiang Yixuan's hand, then glared at Shi Shuo who was standing aside.
"Study hard, you brat, don't you know how to say a few auspicious words?"
Shi Shuo raised his eyebrows, "Then I hope my parents will be as good as each other and give me a younger brother and sister?"
Shi's mother was so angry that she slapped him with the red envelope in her hand, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
"Okay, let's eat first. After dinner, our family will go out to celebrate the New Year."
Shi Can gave Shi Shuo a thumbs up.
Her brother is still her brother, how dare you.
Jiang Yixuan didn't expect this from Shi Shuo. She finally knew why her uncle and aunt called him a brat.
Shi Shuo didn't care and put the red envelope in Jiang Yixuan's hand.
"Turn it in."
"Okay, then I'll accept it."
…
After dinner, the family went out to pay New Year greetings.
Neighbors would just say a few words to introduce Jiang Yixuan.
They all praised Jiang Yixuan's good looks and said they were a good match. The enthusiastic neighbor aunt grabbed a handful of candies and gave them to them.
Shi Shuo, a man who always pretended to be boring in the past, always called out to someone first when he came out this time.
Jiang Yixuan shouted after him.
Shi's mother was finally satisfied with her son.
Good, at least now I can take care of my girlfriend.
After getting close, they went to Shishuo's grandparents' house next.
As soon as they opened the door, a Shiba Inu ran out and circled around them, sticking out its tongue and looking so cute.
Jiang Yixuan tentatively called out, "Qiangwei?"
As soon as the Shiba Inu's eyes lit up, he ran to her and started to rub her trouser legs. His tail was wagging and he was not afraid of anything at all.
He also jumped up and hugged Jiang Yixuan's legs, looking up at her.
Shi Shuo raised his foot as if to kick it, and threatened: "Let go."
"Woof!"
"What do you mean, let go."
Shi Can quickly called Gouzi to come to her side, and teased with a smile, "You should play with me, someone is jealous now and will be jealous of anyone!"
"Woof woof!"
"Yeah, you smell vinegar too, right?"
"Woof!"
The excitement outside made the two elders come out of the room, and they all laughed happily when they saw them.
Shi Shuo and Shi Can both said, "Hello, grandpa and grandma."
Jiang Yixuan thought for a moment and then shouted after them.
Grandma Shi nodded kindly, "What a beautiful child. We, Xiao Shuo, are very lucky."
"Come in quickly and sit down."
Jiang Yixuan tugged at Shi Shuo's clothes, "My grandparents also know about me?"
"Well, I told them. I guess my parents told them again. Of course they know."
