Chapter 965 Qingfeng Dahui (6)
The Yun family spent the New Year in a lively and warm atmosphere.
1 number.
Even though her help was not needed today, Xiao Xing still got up early and sat next to the kotatsu with anticipation.
This is a location that everyone can see when they go out.
Yun's mother brought breakfast to the table and looked at Yun's father.
Dad Yun cleared his throat and pointed to the preserved fruits and jams divided into several portions beside him.
"Today is Xiao Xing's birthday, so we have to prepare a big meal for lunch. How about the three of us go to deliver the New Year gifts together today? This way we can come back earlier to prepare." Dad Yun said, "Let's eat the goodies your sister brought back today."
Xiao Xing's eyes lit up: "Sister is cooking?"
“Looking forward to it?”
Xiao Xing nodded vigorously.
She was looking forward to it!
Xiao Xing drank her soup faster: "Let's eat quickly, let's go."
"Slow down, it's only seven o'clock, there's no need to be so anxious."
Besides, it snowed heavily last night, and the roads on the street were difficult to walk on.
Dad Yun got up at five o'clock to clean up the snow at home, and after dinner he had to shovel the road in front of his house.
"I'm not afraid of slipping." Xiao Xing quickly finished eating and took out a few gifts from the pile of New Year gifts for neighbors, "I'm giving some to my classmates."
After saying that, he hurried back to change his clothes, and then hurried away carrying the basket on his back.
Yun's father and mother repeatedly reminded her to be careful.
"You can come out now."
Yun Ci poked her head out of the bedroom: "Gone?"
"Let's go."
Yun Ci then came out and sat at the dining table.
Yun's mother went to the kitchen and brought out her meal. The three of them ate while discussing how to delay Xiaoxing's return.
After dinner, Dad Yun went to wash the dishes.
Yunma and Yunci cleaned up Xiaoxing's room together and made space for a cabinet.
After finishing the tidying up, the three of them worked together to carry the cabinet made by Yun's father into the house, and the rest was left to Yun Ci to do by herself.
"Then we're going out, you pay attention to the time."
"understand!"
Yunci came to Xiaoxing's room, dragging a large suitcase that had not been opened since she came back.
From time to time, the sound of bottles and jars colliding could be heard from inside.
Yun Ci carefully put down the suitcase and opened it. It was filled with many small finger-sized glass bottles neatly arranged.
In each small glass bottle, there is a seed of varying sizes, and on the sealed wooden cork is a small sticker with the name of the seed written on it.
These are the plant seeds that Yun Ci collected in this world. She tried her best to collect every kind. Even if some are particularly rare, she can use her own energy to produce seeds.
The cabinet has been wiped clean and all that's left is to put the small bottles on the shelves.
Yun Ci paid attention to the time, arranged the seeds as quickly as possible, dragged the suitcase back to her room, and walked back with a stack of thick books.
This is a plant encyclopedia she compiled herself. All the seeds she found are recorded in it. There are thirty books in total, and each one is thick enough to be used as a brick.
Yunci put the books on the bottom shelf of the cabinet, and then started to decorate it with ribbons and other things.
'Jingle Bell--'
Yun Ci's cell phone that was placed aside suddenly rang. The caller was Yun's mother. This was their agreement that she would call her if she couldn't stop Xiao Xing.
Yun Ci quickened her pace to finish the work and put the room in tidiness before she tiptoed back to her room, pretending that she was still sleeping in.
Not long after she lay down, Xiao Xing returned home humming a song.
After entering the room, Xiao Xing stopped talking. She gently walked to Yun Ci's door, opened it and took a look.
The curtains were still drawn and the person was still covered in the quilt, obviously still sleeping.
Xiao Xing muttered softly: "Sister, really..."
She closed the door carefully and the footsteps gradually faded away.
After a few seconds, Xiao Xing screamed in surprise.
Yun Ci opened the door, leaned against the door frame and looked at Xiao Xing who was just turning around and about to walk over here.
"Happy birthday, Xiao Xing."
Xiao Xing's eyes were red and she trotted into Yun Ci's arms.
"Thank you sister."
Xiao Xing didn't expect Yun Ci to prepare such a gift for her.
She is very happy.
but……
“Will these be expensive?”
"This is your 18th birthday, so of course you have to celebrate it well."
"But... Sister, if you buy all these, will you still have money to live?"
Yun Ci raised her hand and tapped Xiao Xing on the head: "You don't need to worry about this."
Xiao Xing yelled "It hurts", but there was a smile on her face.
Yun Ci also smiled: "Go ahead, sister is looking forward to what you grow."
"I will definitely work hard!"
Xiao Xing said seriously.
She was very curious about what was inside, and after a while she couldn't help it and ran back to carefully examine each seed.
When Yun's father and mother came back, she was already immersed in the world of seeds.
Yun Ci was wearing an apron and busy in the kitchen.
Today the family is going to eat pepper chicken hotpot.
Freshly slaughtered chicken does not require many special steps to process, just cut it and arrange it on the plate.
Yun's mother also came to help cut other meat and vegetables, while Yun's father was holding a basin and picking vegetables on the side.
The whole family is enjoying themselves.
Xiao Xing was awakened by the smell of food. She looked at the small bottles placed around her and subconsciously smiled widely.
"Is the meal ready?" Xiao Xing leaned against the kitchen door, "I'm a little hungry."
"Alright." Yun Ci came over from behind Xiao Xing, holding a cake box still covered in snow, "It's time to eat."
Four people sat at four positions on the kotatsu, with a bubbling hot pot in the middle.
The taste of pepper fills the entire space domineeringly, making your mouth water.
But before we start eating——
The four of them held up drink cups of different colors and clinked their cups together.
"Happy 18th birthday to our Xiao Xing——"

"Wow, I'm so envious. I wish I had a sister like Xiaoci~" Kasuga Cangzi said in a pinched voice, "Sister, sister, my birthday is coming soon~"
Yun Ci couldn't help but scratch her ears: "Cangzi, does your patient know that his attending physician has this kind of personality?"
Kasuga Cangzi immediately regained her composure, with a hint of queenly in her voice: "I usually talk to patients like this."
"You are really versatile. If you don't become a doctor, being a voice actor would also suit you well."
"Is that so? Otherwise, I'll go get a relevant certificate..."
"Okay, let's get down to business."
"Oh, yes." Kasuga Cangzi said, "Xiaoci, do you know who I saw today?"
"Obviously there's no way for me to know."
"Hey, you, I saw that basketball player you like so much!"
Kasuga Cangzi didn't follow basketball, and for a moment she couldn't remember Aomine Daiki's name. She kept saying "qingqingqing" on the other end of the phone for a long time, and finally said:
"It's the dark-skinned one!"
