Super Farming Tycoon Chapter 278 New Year's Eve

278 New Year’s Eve
On New Year’s Eve, the entire village was filled with firecrackers and fireworks. The greenish-blue smoke of firecrackers filled the entire Stoneback Village, emitting the smell of sulfur and smoke everywhere, making it look very festive.
The Shi family was no exception. After three long firecrackers were placed, the entire Shi family heard a series of loud bangs.
This year’s New Year’s Eve, the two families gathered together for a reunion dinner.
After dinner, the elders gathered together to chat and even watched the annual Spring Festival Gala!
However, they were old after all. Even though their physical fitness had improved greatly after consuming the spiritual water, they were still old. If they stayed up a little later, they would feel tired and go to rest.
As for the youngsters, they played mahjong or cards. The atmosphere was really lively.
The three uncles and Mr. Gu were playing mahjong. As for the women and younger ones, they made up two more tables and played cards.
Gu Qingming, on the other hand, was a backup. Wherever there was a need, she would fill the gap.
Usually, no matter how harmonious a husband and wife were, when it came to playing mahjong, they would fight to the death without hesitation or mercy!
Haha… However, when it was nine o’clock, she was urged to go to bed.
“Mingming, it’s very late. Don’t stay up late. Hurry up and go to sleep!” Eldest Aunt began to urge her. “It’s getting more inconvenient for you to move around. You can’t sleep well at night. You should hurry up and rest.”
Gu Qingming shook her head and said, “Eldest Uncle, I’ll play here for a while. It’s rare for our family to gather together. I want to accompany everyone for a while!”
Mrs. Gu immediately said with a smile, “Aiyo, you little girl, it’s really rare for you to want to accompany everyone. In the past, I saw you go out alone to have fun!”
Ever since Gu Qingming became an adult, she had her own circle of friends and spent less time at home.
Later on, after Gu Qingming fell in love with Lin Haotian, her relationship with her family suddenly became tense, and she was even more unwilling to stay at home.
Every year during the New Year, after having a New Year’s Eve dinner, she would go out to play with her friends.
As soon as Mrs. Gu said her piece, Eldest Uncle immediately protected his niece. He said, “Mingming is a sensible and obedient child. Don’t be so sarcastic here.”
When Mrs. Gu heard this, she said a little aggrievedly, “Brother, I was clearly the person you doted on the most in the past. Are you not my brother now?”
Eldest Uncle glanced at her and said angrily, “I’m your eldest brother and also your daughter’s eldest uncle. Your daughter is my daughter. I have to protect my own daughter first.”
Mrs. Gu was speechless.
She realized that her status in the Shi family had plummeted.
Should she be jealous of her daughter?
Gu Jianguo glanced at his wife and immediately comforted her, “Honey, you can’t let Big Brother dote on you the most now. I’m the one who dotes on you the most. If you let Big Brother dote on you the most again, I’ll be jealous.”
“Pfft!”
Showing off their love in front of his brother-in-law and sister-in-law really made people laugh.
Mrs. Gu’s face instantly turned red. Of course, she was embarrassed.
Shi Yaoqing took a look and asked Gu Qingming softly, “Sister, is Uncle like this at home?”
Gu Qingming nodded and said, “The two of them show off their love at home every day. I’m used to seeing their public displays of affection every day.”
The others immediately looked sympathetic and said, “It must have been hard on you, Sister!”
The adults present were in a loving marriage as well. However, they were more reserved, unlike their uncle, who showed off his love in public wave after wave!
However, it was also because of the love between the Gu couple that the elders tonight were very gratified and happy.
Young people like them knew that their grandparents were most concerned about their aunt who had married and moved to a distant land.
Although they knew that she was doing well, they were still a little worried since they were thousands of miles apart.
Tonight, her grandparents told her many things about her aunt when she was young. Even the people who listened could sense how much her aunt was pampered.
Fortunately, their aunt was living a blissful life. They were all relieved now.
The few youngsters had seen their uncle dote on their aunt sincerely before.
For example, when eating fish, Uncle would first remove the fish bones before giving them to Aunt.
Every time she ate, Uncle would pick up her favorite dishes and put them into her bowl.
No matter what, the first person he considered was Aunt.
As for the fruit of their love, Gu Qingming, this daughter, sometimes wondered if she was an extra.
Eldest Sister-in-law looked at her aunt and uncle enviously and sighed. “Uncle and Aunt are really in love!”
Third Sister-in-law nodded and replied, “They’re indeed very in love. Sister already said that they show off their love every day.”
Aunt was probably the happiest woman in the world.
When she was young, the entire family doted on her. When she grew up and married her husband, not only did her husband adore her, but her in-laws also doted on her. Many of the common problems between a mother-in-law and her daughter-in-law in the family did not exist at all.
Even though their Aunt was old enough to be a grandmother, she was still doted on.
Third Aunt looked at the loving couple and said with a smile, “That’s enough, you two. Can’t you see that the children are still here? Don’t lead the children astray.”
The three or four-year-old Shi Junxuan, Shi Jiahao, and the ten-year-old Shi Boyu also clamored to spend the New Year with the adults.
The adults were playing cards and mahjong, and the three children were watching television. They were in high spirits.
Mrs. Gu pinched her husband’s face and said with a red face, “Control yourself. Many people are watching now!”
Gu Jianguo’s expression immediately twisted when his wife grabbed his waist. Then, he returned to normal and said, “Alright, alright, I’ll listen to you.”
Mrs. Gu was speechless.
Unknowingly, everyone played until ten o’clock.
The children’s heads were already nodding bit by bit as the adults carried them back to their rooms to sleep.
Under everyone’s urging, Gu Qingming could only reluctantly return to her room to rest.
After returning to her room, Gu Qingming did not go to bed immediately. Instead, she locked the door and entered the space.
As soon as she entered the space, the five little cuties greeted her. The puppies and kittens were lined up in a row. Their white fur was like snowballs, and the big round eyes on their velvet heads were as bright and clear as black pearls.
“Babies! Happy New Year!” Gu Qingming greeted them as soon as she entered the space. She bent down and picked up Ballie. The other three gathered around her. The little fairy flew in the air and she continued, “After tonight, you’ll be a year older. When there’s a chance, I’ll bring you out to play!”
Kong Xingfan blinked and asked, “Master, can I play too?”
Gu Qingming thought for a moment and said, “As long as you’re invisible and not discovered, it’s fine!”
“Oh, that’s great!”
