The farce was finally over. Celia had a good fight this time. She was in a very good mood these days.
It was the Spring Festival. A lot of people were visiting their families and friends in the countryside. Everyone was caught up in the joyous mood of festival.
During the Spring Festival, Cora slaughtered two fat pigs. Most of the pork was sold for money, and only a small portion would be saved to their own family. At that time, Cora deliberately left a good piece of pork and placed it in front of the fire and burned it for a few days and nights. after a few days, the delicious preserved meat was done and it was a good dish for the household. It could be kept well until summer.
"Do you think the gift from Hardy's mother is too expensive?"
Usually, such a piece of precious meat would only give the daughter or son-in-law in the family who had married and went back home for reunion in the Spring Festival. But they were not relatives with Hardy, and the
that they had something to talk about and didn't want to be embarrassed when they met.
"My silly son, it's not easy for Celia to come here. It's new year. Can you put aside your study for the time being? Nothing is more important than the new year."
Cora was speechless. Was her son really a nerd? Other people always forced their children to learn, but their family was totally different.
"Yes, your mother is right. My son, you should also take a break. Celia is here today. I happen to have something important to tell her. It's good news."
Horace tried to keep her in suspense.
"Uncle. What's the good news?"
Celia was also curious about what good news she could get from Horace.
"Just sit there. I'll get something for you."
Even if Celia didn't come, he was going to find her in the next two days. She would have a good news after suffering a hard time.
Both of Cora and Hardy were puzzled. They didn't know what the good news Horace had.
