Three days passed in a flash.
After entertaining his family and friends, Qin Family was free.
For the past three days, everyone had been at home chatting and telling interesting stories. Their lives had been warm and cozy.
Today was New Year's Eve, so everyone in Qin Family had woken up early. In the morning, they would get the servants to help them with the last wave of cleaning.
Qin Family was very considerate towards these servants, they also had their own families, and every New Year's Eve, he would let them go home during the holidays.
In the past, Qin's father would always accompany Qin’s mother in the kitchen for every New Year's Eve meal. Qin Xiaobao would occasionally run errands for him.
Since Grandfather Qin was an elder and was old, he would naturally not do such things. He would look at the flowers and play with the birds.
Qin Yue, on the other hand, was busy working in his study.
Using Qin Xiaobao's words, her brother would instantly earn countless zeroes, how much would a minute of delay cost, so she let him be busy.
This year was different.
Today, Jian Ran accompanied the Qin’s mother to busy herself in the kitchen, while the Qin's father accompanied the Grandfather Qin to leisurely drink tea and play chess in the garden.
After Qin Xiaobao recuperated from her injuries, she regained her usual vigor. One moment she was running here, the next she was running there.
The most different person from the past was definitely Qin Yue.
Instead of being busy in the study as usual, he took the newspaper and sat in the living room, reading it.
Qin Xiaobao was startled when she passed by the living room. "Brother, did the sun rise from the west today?"
A person who would never show up unless it was time for lunch was sitting in the living room reading a newspaper. This was an explosive piece of news.
Qin Yue looked at the newspaper and ignored her.
He ignored everyone, and Qin Xiaobao would not let him off easily.
She squeezed to his side and sat down, smiling as she said, "Brother, you're not busy today? Aren't you going to take care of the big matters? "
"If you want to sit down, then sit down." Qin Yue said without lifting his head, "If you can't sit still, go to the kitchen and help mother and your sister-in-law."
"So it turns out that I'm feeling sorry for my sister-in-law, because she's tired." Qin Xiaobao snatched the newspaper from his hands, "I was worried about my sister-in-law so I went into the kitchen to take a look. How could she know you were concerned about her when you were sitting here like this? "
Qin Yue raised his head, as he looked at Qin Xiaobao with heavy eyes: "Qin Xiaobao, do you want to be punished to think about it in front of the wall on New Year's Eve?"
"Hey, what happened to the two of you?" Jian Ran walked out with the plate and saw Qin Yue's gloomy face.
Qin Xiaobao immediately said: "Sister-in-law, big brother said he pitied you."
"Yes." Jian Ran nodded, pursed her lips into a smile: "I know."
Qin Yue's face suddenly darkened. He did not speak, nor did he look at them.
How long had these two known each other? In that short time, he had felt as if they were on the same side, and he was the one who had been separated.
"Xiao Bao, this is the pearl I personally made for you. Let me show it to you." Jian Ran said with a smile.
"Thank you, sister-in-law." Qin Xiaobao took one and stuffed it into her mouth, saying with satisfaction, "The pills mother made are still so delicious."
"Wash your hands?" Can you talk when you eat? "Where did you forget your elementary school etiquette?" Qin Yue acted as if he was Brother Yan.
Jian Ran had never seen him in such a state. When she looked at him, she looked at him with a few questions in her eyes.
However, this kind of viciousness could not be considered as malevolence. As the eldest brother, he should educate the younger sister.
Qin Xiaobao pouted, crawled up and ran: "I don't want to play with a big piece of wood like you. I'm going to play chess with my grandfather and father. "
Qin Xiaobao ran away, leaving only Qin Yue and Jian Ran in the hall.
Qin Yue opened the newspaper again and concentrated on reading.
Jian Ran sat beside him and picked up a pill: "Do you want to eat it?"
Qin Yue opened his mouth to bite the pill, but Jian Ran suddenly retracted his hand.
She said, "Do you still want to be angry?"
Qin Yue frowned: "I'm not angry." He just didn't feel well, as if her relationship with Xiao Bao was better than his.
Jian Ran smiled gently, then asked: "Are you unwilling to admit that you care for me?"
Qin Yue frowned even more.
Jian Ran got a little closer to him, and said gently: "Qin Yue, actually, being able to cook for a family with mother is an extremely happy thing for me."
New Year's Eve was a family reunion, and many ordinary families would make a reunion meal on that day.
Actually, it was not about eating this meal, but enjoying the time when the whole family gathered together.
It was meaningless for servants to do all sorts of things, so every year, Qin’s mother would personally cook for his family.
Not food, but love.
The family had a reunion dinner and sat around watching the Spring Festival Gala.
Everyone was like this, plain yet warm. In fact, this was a type of happiness.
"As long as you're happy." "No," he said.
"Then eat it." Jian Ran picked up a pill and fed it into his mouth.
When he had swallowed, she said, "I didn't wash my hands, either."
Knowing that he was obsessed with cleanliness, she intentionally said so before running off. Turning back to look at him, she saw that his complexion was indeed awful.
She added, "I'm just teasing you. Mr. Qin, you must not be angry. "
Qin Yue's face sunk again, he didn't even look at her, but after she left, the corner of his lips unconsciously raised a little.
On the day of the reunion dinner, the Qin Family would break the rule of not being allowed to talk at the table and the whole family would sit together and chat, happy and warm.
After eating, Jian Ran knew that Qin’s mother's health was not good, and took the initiative to take care of the tableware.
How could Qin Yue let his wife help him do the dishes alone? He also took the initiative to help her wash the dishes and clean it all up by himself.
Jian Ran looked at him: "You probably never did this at home before, right?"
Qin Yue shook his head.
"I'm so happy." What he had never done before had been broken for her while the two of them were living together.
After packing up, Qin Wan also began. The family sat together to watch the Spring Festival Gala, chatting as they watched.
For example, how did this host do, how did this celebrity sing, and their topics were the same as many others.
Until the bell for the new year, Qin Xiaobao immediately came in front of Grandfather Qin, "Grandfather, Xiao Bao wishes you good health, and the more you live, the younger you become."
Grandfather Qin smiled as he took out the red packet he had prepared a long time ago, "Come, I also hope that our Xiao Bao will become more beautiful and sensible."
"Thank you, Grandpa!" Qin Xiaobao kissed the thick red packet again and again in satisfaction.
