Meng Nianyao paused and nodded.

The family sat down. Grandpa Gu sat at the head of the table. On the left of the table sat Grandma Gu, Gu Wencheng, and Meng Nianyao. On the right were Gu Guanping and Lin Ping.

“It’s rare for our family to celebrate the new year together.” Grandma Gu smiled happily; it was rare for their family to have a reunion dinner on New Year’s Eve. “Aunt Yang, go get a bottle of wine. Let Wencheng and his father have a toast. Our family should celebrate.” As parents, she and Grandpa Gu felt a little lonely when their son wasn’t by their side during the New Year.

Auntie Yang smiled and nodded.

Meng Nianyao also wanted to drink some wine, but Gu Wencheng stopped her. “Drink something else with Grandpa.”

“Nianyao, let’s have juice together.” Grandpa Gu smiled.

Meng Nianyao nodded and drank fresh fruit juice with Grandpa Gu.

“Happy New Year.” The few of them raised their glasses to celebrate the new year.

“Grandpa and Grandma Gu, I wish you a healthy and happy new year,” Meng Nianyao said.

“You too. I hope you and Wencheng are safe and happy.” Grandma Gu laughed.

Meng Nianyao hesitated for a moment before pouring some juice into her glass and raising it. “Uncle, Auntie, I wish both you a happy new year. I hope everything goes well for you and that you remain healthy.”

“Wencheng has already proposed to you, and you’re going to hold a wedding with him soon. Nianyao, you should call them ‘Mom’ and ‘Dad’ now., Grandma Gu suddenly said.

“That’s right.” Gu Guanping didn’t dislike Meng Nianyao as much as Lin Ping, so he followed Grandma Gu’s lead.

Meng Nianyao looked at Lin Ping. She knew that Lin Ping definitely didn’t want her to call her “mother.” However, because it was the new year, she didn’t show it, so she nodded. “Okay.” Although she had agreed, she did not call Lin Ping ‘mother’.

After the meal, they pasted couplets. The couplets that the Gu family pasted in the past were written by Grandpa Gu. Later, this habit was passed down to Gu Wencheng. Meng Nianyao didn’t know this, so she was surprised when Gu Wencheng pulled her into the study after dinner. Lin Ping, Gu Guanping, and their grandparents were all sitting downstairs; it was not good for the two of them to run upstairs. free webnov el.com

“What are you doing up here?” Gu Wencheng didn’t bring his work home during his stay at the old mansion, so Meng Nianyao didn’t understand why Gu Wencheng would suddenly abandon his family and come to the study on New Year’s Day.

Gu Wencheng took out some red paper from the bookshelf and ink. He put it aside and waved to Meng Nianyao. “I’m writing a couplet. Come and help.” Meng Nianyao was surprised, but walked over.

After Gu Wencheng finished writing the couplet, the two of them went downstairs. Grandpa Gu was playing chess with Gu Guanping while Lin Ping and Grandma Gu were chatting. The atmosphere was harmonious and warm. Grandma Gu smiled when she saw the two of them coming downstairs. Lin Ping looked at Gu Wencheng with gentleness in her eyes and even looked at Meng Nianyao with a much kinder gaze.

“Grandma, Mom.” Meng Nianyao greeted them and followed Gu Wencheng out to paste couplets without looking at Lin Ping’s expression.

The door was very high. Gu Wencheng asked Meng Nianyao to get a stool. Meng Nianyao didn’t react in time and was about to turn around when Gu Wencheng suddenly picked her up. “Forget it. This will do.”

Meng Nianyao’s body rose into the air. She looked down and saw Gu Wencheng smiling evilly, upon which she punched him angrily. “What are you doing? You scared me to death!” Although her tone was a little harsh, her eyes were full of smiles.

“What’s wrong?” Grandma Gu heard the commotion and came out. “I thought you were bullying Nianyao,” she sighed in relief when she saw Gu Wencheng and Meng Nianyao hugging each other.

Meng Nianyao looked at Grandma Gu and Lin Ping, who had followed her. She smiled awkwardly. “I’m sorry, Grandma. Did I scare you?” She pinched Gu Wencheng’s hand and whispered to him, “Put me down quickly.”

Gu Wencheng was pinched, but his hands didn’t move, and he continued to hold Meng Nianyao. Lin Ping saw this and frowned. She looked at the couplets on the ground, and her expression became even worse. She was even more annoyed with Meng Nianyao. She said unhappily, “Meng Nianyao, it’s fine if Gu Wencheng is messing around, but why did you follow him and throw the couplets on the ground? It’s so unlucky.”

Meng Nianyao’s expression stiffened, and she quickly broke free from Gu Wencheng’s arms.

Grandma Gu smiled and continued.” It’s good to make a scene so that there’s some excitement at home. Otherwise, people who are quiet will panic.”

Meng Nianyao stood with her hands and feet together. Gu Wencheng bent down and picked up the couplets on the ground. He said mockingly,” I thought you would be more open-minded after you went abroad. I didn’t expect you to still be old-fashioned.”

Lin Ping’s face stiffened.

“Wencheng, didn’t you buy fireworks?” Grandma Gu was worried that Lin Ping and Gu Wencheng would be unhappy again, so she changed the topic..
