On the night of New Year's Eve, there were very few vehicles on the roads in Haicheng.
Wei Lizhou and Yu Yiqing traveled smoothly all the way, and soon returned to Wei's house.
After the Wei family driver sent them to the gate of the villa, they drove home and started their vacation.
As soon as Yu Yiqing got out of the car, he immediately felt the strong New Year flavor and lively and festive atmosphere in Wei's house.
The villa is decorated with lights and festoons everywhere, and all kinds of exquisite and beautiful red paper-cuts are pasted on the bright glass windows.
Seeing the beaming scene in front of him, Yu Yiqing pursed his lips.
Thinking of his sudden appearance disturbing the reunion of Wei Lizhou and his family, he clenched his fingertips uncomfortably.
Wei Lizhou didn't notice the turmoil in Yu Yiqing's heart at this moment.
He pointed to the brand-new couplet on the gate, smiled and showed off to Yu Yiqing who was walking beside him, "Did you see that, I posted that couplet myself, doesn't it look good?"
Yu Yiqing couldn't bring himself to appreciate the couplet at this time.
He looked at the happy Wei Lizhou in front of him, opened his mouth, and wanted to call Wei Lizhou to stop, saying that he didn't want to cause trouble to their family, it was better to go back, but before he could open his mouth, Wei's mother suddenly appeared at the door.
Mother Wei was wearing a simple and elegant brown-red cheongsam, with a smile on her face, she said to them warmly, "You guys are back!"
Wei Lizhou smiled and said to Wei's mother: "Mom, we came back very quickly. You said it as if you had been waiting for a long time."
Mother Wei smiled cheerfully: "Don't you know that when people are looking forward, they will feel that time passes very slowly? I have been looking forward to Yiqing coming to our house for a long time."
Mother Wei looked at Yu Yiqing, and said in a friendly tone, "Hurry up and wash your hands, and then we will all make dumplings together. You and Wei Lizhou are in charge of rolling out the dumpling wrappers, while the rest of us are in charge of adjusting the fillings and making dumplings. This New Year's Eve tonight For dinner, everyone has to help."
Hearing Mother Wei's series of instructions, Yu Yiqing froze for a moment. But then the brows that were slightly furrowed suddenly relaxed.
He nodded gently with his brows and eyes, and let out a "hmm".
Wei's mother's indifferent performance instantly dispelled Yu Yiqing's worries caused by overthinking.
While Mother Wei and Wei Shengnan were making dumpling fillings in the kitchen, Wei Lizhou and Yu Yiqing were rolling dumpling wrappers at the dining table.
Mother Wei walked to the dining table holding the dumpling stuffing plate, and when she saw the dumpling wrappers rolled out by Wei Lizhou and Yu Yiqing, she burst out laughing.
Wei Shengnan followed behind her, looked up curiously, and laughed unabashedly.
The dumpling wrappers rolled out by Yu Yiqing are neat in size as if made by a machine, while Wei Lizhou's are one big and one small, crooked, very casual.
With a strong smile in Wei Shengnan's voice, he teased: "Wei Lizhou, can you learn from Yu Yiqing's technique? Look at yours, and then look at Yu Yiqing's. It's just that you don't know if you don't compare. I was shocked by the comparison."
Wei Lizhou snorted dissatisfiedly towards Wei Shengnan, "What do you know, I'm called art! You lack a pair of eyes to discover beauty!"
Wei Shengnan smiled and said: "Since you think the dumpling wrappers you make look good, then you will be responsible for eating those dumplings made with your dumpling wrappers later."magic
Wei Lizhou was interrupted by Wei Shengnan's words. Out of the corner of his eye, he quietly glanced at the dumpling wrappers he rolled out, feeling a little guilty for a moment.
He cleared his throat, and said righteously: "Sharing is a virtue, how can I monopolize it, let's eat together."
Wei's mother was amused by his words, and said: "Okay, don't roll the dumpling wrappers anymore, come and make dumplings with us. I think you are there to make trouble for Yiqing."
Father Wei was cooking the New Year's Eve dinner in the kitchen, and he was mainly responsible for tonight's hard dishes. Hearing the commotion outside, Father Wei also ran out to join in the fun.
Seeing the dumpling wrappers rolled by Wei Lizhou on the dining table, he smiled and echoed Wei's mother's words, and said, "I think what your mother said is right, you are doing Yu Yiqing a disservice."
Although Wei Lizhou admitted in his heart that his dumpling wrappers were so-so, he refused to accept that they were not helping.
He looked at Yu Yiqing beside him, and asked expectantly: "Yu Yiqing, you have seen my performance with your own eyes. Tell the truth, am I doing you a disservice by being here?"
Yu Yiqing was silent for a moment, "Go and make dumplings."
"Yu Yiqing! You have let me down so much!" Wei Lizhou's voice was full of grief and anger, and he looked at Yu Yiqing in disbelief.
Yu Yiqing actually despised him so much!
Mother Wei and the others and Wei Shengnan burst out laughing instantly.
Yu Yiqing's indifferent eyebrows and eyes softened a little under the joyful atmosphere of the room.
In the end, Wei Lizhou was driven by everyone to make dumplings.
Mother Wei and the others were chatting about things while making dumplings, and before they knew it, they talked about Yan's family who lived next door to them.
Wei Lizhou remembered that when he came back just now, he saw that Yan's house was pitch black, and none of the lights were lit, so he said, "It seems that their family didn't celebrate the New Year here."
Because of Wei Lizhou's acquaintance with Yan Daichuan and Huang Shiyuan, Wei's mother has recently started walking with Huang Shiyuan.
She explained to Wei Lizhou: "Aunt Huang and his wife went to celebrate the New Year with his younger brother's family. When their nephew came to pick them up two days ago, I happened to see it."
Hearing Wei's mother mention Yan Kaichen, an annoying person, Wei Lizhou instantly lost the interest to continue talking about this topic, and he gave a faint "oh".
When Yu Yiqing heard that Yan Daichuan and Yan Kaichen were still very close, he couldn't help but frowned.
Yan Daichuan and his wife still didn't seem to have the slightest awareness of being wary of Yan Kaichen's nephew.
The death of Yan Daichuan and his wife in the previous life, Yu Yiqing had long believed in his heart that it was Yan Kaichen who did it.
After investigation in his previous life, although he found some clues, he failed to find conclusive evidence of Yan Kaichen's actions. Moreover, Yan Kaichen has been secretly sending people to obstruct him from continuing the investigation.
Yu Yiqing thought to himself, maybe he should find a way to remind Yan Daichuan to be careful of the inhuman but good at disguising jackal beside him.
After all, once Yan Kaichen gains power, he will become even more difficult to deal with.
