After the separation, the family had a lot of fish and meat every day, and the best was furious

Chapter 248 New Year's Eve, guests and hosts are happy

"Mrs. Lin, it's Chinese New Year after all, so they can't stay by your side to protect you. But you don't have to worry, they will all be back after the Chinese New Year."

This Xiao Pu was trying to force a smile, and his tone of voice didn't sound fake.

"You mean, I've always had people from the county government secretly protecting me? Is that what you mean?"

The shopkeeper pretended to be surprised: "Oh, so you didn't know, Madam Lin? Look, I'm being too nosy. I wanted to tell you something, but forget it..."

The young constable was about to leave when Lin Lin stopped him.

"Wait, explain yourself clearly before you leave!"

The young constable smiled smugly inwardly, it seemed that Madam Lin had taken the bait.

"Well... well, wasn't the owner of Hibiscus Pavilion released some time ago? Master Qu was afraid that he might harm you, so he sent people to protect you in secret.

But that day, Madam Lin was going to the academy in the suburbs, and our county government happened to be trying to arrest a criminal, so we were short of manpower, and that's why she was targeted by the owner of Furong Pavilion.

But Madam Lin, you are alone. Our Lord Qu said that no matter how short the manpower is, we must keep people by your side.

If it weren't for Lord Qu, the first target of Furong Pavilion's owner's revenge would probably be you, Madam Lin.

Also, don't you think that recently, you've received news of any rumors from the outside world faster than others? This was all leaked to you by someone hired by Lord Qu."

Lin Lin realized it later and was stunned. She was wondering why Yi Tianjiao didn't come to seek revenge on her. Wouldn't it be easier for her to suffer alone?

The problems that she could think of were also thought of by Yi Tianjiao, but she didn't know that it was Qu Yuanxun who was silently protecting her behind the scenes.

If it weren't for Qu Yuanxun, with her solitary personality, how could she possibly be a match for Yi Tianjiao.

Seeing that Lin Lin was silent, the young captain called her twice again.

"Mrs. Lin, Mrs. Lin, if everything is fine, I'll leave first."

"Ok!"

Lin Lin nodded and closed the door of the courtyard.

The young detective walked a few steps and turned back, a smile in his eyes. The old lady's idea was indeed the best.

As long as we tell Madam Lin about this, even if Madam Lin wants to avoid their master, she will be more gentle to their master out of gratitude, hehe...

Lin Lin sat in her room, leaning on the beauty couch, thinking about her estrangement from Qu Yuanxun these days.

Is she really going to be entangled with Qu Yuanxun? But Mrs. Qu will not agree. She herself is unable to have children, and she does not want to harm Qu Yuanxun.

Lin Lin didn't think about it anymore. She decided to take advantage of the opportunity to have a good rest and go to Wushan Village in a few days to celebrate the New Year.

On the afternoon of New Year's Eve, the Shen residence was filled with hearty laughter and was very lively.

"Brother, go make the dumplings. Leave the dough rolling to Doctor Wan and Shen Qingzhou. They're very strong."

Wan Weiran: "..."

"Just feel sorry for your senior brother. Shen Qingzhou has plenty of strength for this job anyway. I'll help Shen Qingzhou."

This was the first time for these people to make dumplings by themselves during the Chinese New Year. They were all rich young masters in their families before, but now they made the dumplings crookedly.

"I think the only time Dr. Wan isn't being a hindrance is when he's eating."

Shen Qingzhou teased Wan Weiran, which made Wan Weiran very dissatisfied.

"Shen Qingzhou, whatever you say is right...but I've always been good at hands-on work. Look at the dough I rolled out for you. I guarantee it won't break when boiled."

Lin Lin and Lin Ting were also making dumplings with them. The simple act of making dumplings was fun for everyone.

"Sister, you come teach Xiaoman and Mr. Qi how to make dumplings, and I'll go help my mother-in-law."

"Okay! Go ahead."

The Shen residence was very lively, and Yang Xiuxiu and Shen Dali were busy in the kitchen.

"Grandma, after you cook the chicken and offer it for sacrifice, bring it back and cut it up for us to eat as white-cut chicken."

In rural areas, people only need to show their respect during the New Year sacrifices, but they still have to bring the food back and eat it. After all, it has always been like this.

"Okay, I'll let you make the seasoning. You make it better."

"Ok!"

The house hasn't been so lively for a long time, and Yang Xiuxiu was also very happy. While cooking, she could hear the laughter of Shen Wanyi and An Yuezi playing with fireworks in the yard.

This year's Chinese New Year was the most dignified one Yang Xiuxiu had ever had in all the years since she married into Wushan Village.

During dinner, Shen Dali took out all the wines he had hidden. Although they were not good wines, they were still his treasures.

"Doctor Wan, Master Qi, this is wine brewed by the people in the neighboring village. It is definitely different from what you usually drink."

Wan Weiran took out a large bowl and poured wine for Shen Dali.

"A wine that even my uncle praises must be good. Let me try it first."

Shen Dali held up the jar and poured a bowl for Wan Weiran with a smile.

"Doctor Wan, try it. It's made from whole grains. Their family can't brew it more than twice a year."

Wan Weiran took a sip and it was a little choking, but after drinking it, it warmed his entire esophagus and stomach, which was just enough to suppress the depression in his heart.

"Mm, not bad, it's quite tasty. You guys should come and drink it too, Qi Hua, come together, come together."

The New Year's Eve dinner was a great success for both the host and the guests. After the meal, Lin Ting took out the fireworks she had bought so that everyone could set them off together in the yard.

Shen Qingzhou was responsible for lighting Lin Ting's fireworks. Together with Shen Wanyi and An Yue, they released the fireworks into the air. Sparks exploded in a brilliant and colorful display.

"Shen Qingzhou, get us two more buckets of fireworks!"

Just as Lin Ting finished speaking, Shen Wanyi came up to him and said, "Daddy, I want one too, I want one too..."

Everyone was having fun, except Wan Weiran, who was sitting alone under the eaves. He had been laughing and playing from the afternoon to the evening, but now he couldn't muster any energy.

When Lin Lin was rushing to play with Shen Wanyi, snowflakes suddenly started falling from the sky.

"It's snowing, Xiaobao, look, it's snowing..."

This year, Wenzhu County was just cold in winter, but it hadn't snowed yet. Unexpectedly, it snowed on the last day of New Year's Eve.

"It's really snowing, Auntie. We can make a snowman tomorrow, yay..."

Lin Ting pulled Shen Qingzhou aside and raised her hand to catch the snowflakes falling from the sky. The snow, as white as fluff, fell into her palm and slowly melted.

"Shen Qingzhou, I once heard a legend that making a wish to the first snow is very effective!"

This made Shen Qingzhou chuckle: "Isn't that the end? Snow is so light, it melts into water and flows away when it hits the ground. How can it carry the wishes of mankind?"

Lin Ting raised his head and stared into his eyes: "Ji Tuo Ji Tuo, do you understand?"

Shen Qingzhou lovingly helped her gather her red cloak: "Okay, then I will also make a wish to Chuxue, wishing that we can be together for the rest of our lives, never apart."

Lin Ting's face turned red. She shouldn't have teased Shen Qingzhou like that, and he even got the better of her.
