Chapter 1128: Chapter 1122: The First Day of the New Year_1 Chapter 1128: Chapter 1122: The First Day of the New Year_1 After waiting for Qing Zhu to finish her al, Qin Xue cleaned up the dishes and went ho. She had woken up late, and she was worried that Qing Zhu might be hungry, so she first brought food to Qing Zhu’s. It was only after returning ho that she had her own al. This morning, when she t Fang Xiu’s intrusive gaze, she blushed a little.
Now she was ho, her main concern was not other matters, but filling her stomach. However, as soon as she arrived ho, she found that the whole family was still waiting for her and they hadn’t had their al yet.
“Why hasn’t anyone eaten yet? Don’t tell you’ve all been waiting for ,” Qin Xue asked, washing her hands and sitting down to see everyone sitting silently. The dishes on the table were still steaming, indicating they had been reheated.
“Today is the first day of the New Year, so of course we were waiting for you. It’s important that the whole family eats our reunion al together,” Qin Lei explained with a laugh now that his eldest daughter was ho.
“Why didn’t you say so earlier? I could have co ho sooner instead of staying so long at Qing Zhu’s,” Qin Xue said, feeling embarrassed. She thought her family mbers would have had their al before her and left hers to be ward up in the pot. She had no idea they hadn’t eaten and had been waiting for her.
“There was nothing important going on today anyway, and we were all at ho. What’s the big deal about waiting for you? Let’s all eat,” Qin Lei suggested, gesturing everyone to start eating.
“Qin Xue, can you share the New Year traditions in your family?” Ouyang Ziyu asked Qin Xue after taking a bite of at.
“Uh… I’m not quite sure how to explain. You’ll understand once you experience it yourself. Otherwise, you’re just hearing about it from , right?” Qin Xue replied.
She had never celebrated the New Year here before, so how could she know if the customs here were the sa as back ho. If they weren’t and she said they were, how would she explain that? So, it was better for her to let Ziyu see and observe for herself.
“That makes sense,” Ouyang Ziyu nodded in agreent. She later asked so other questions, but didn’t ask about customs anymore.
Chu Molin glanced sideways at his wife. Others might not understand why she didn’t answer, but he did, and he was quite satisfied with her quick thinking to improvise.
He picked up a piece of chicken and placed it in her bowl. Having spent a long ti with Qin Xue, Chu Molin had co to understand so of her preferences.
Chicken was her favorite, especially the aty parts. Chu Molin once asked her why she liked aty parts so much. She said it was more convenient; there was no need to gnaw at the bones. It was quick and easy. With only a little ti to eat each day, she didn’t have the ti to slowly savor her food. Hence, it beca a habit.
As a result, she mostly ate aty parts and seldom gnawed on bones. However, when she was with Chenchen and Yingying, she’d still gnaw at bones, because it indicated they had plenty of ti and didn’t need to rush.
However, such monts were rare, as the three of them worked in different fields. Chenchen had social engagents every day, Qin Xue had shifts, and Yingying used to be in the army and could only co out once in a while. After her discharge, she followed her master and had even less ti to socialize. Even so, they kept in touch regularly, so their relationship hadn’t changed much.
Thinking of this, Qin Xue paused for a mont. She didn’t know why, but these days, mories of her ti with them often surfaced. Their ti together usually sprang to mind.
She didn’t know what these recollections were trying to convey. Was it because of Chenchen or Yingying? Qin Xue shook her head, resud eating, and thought no more. Thinking too much would be of no use.
“Xue’er, what’s wrong?” Chu Molin noticed his wife’s action and asked quietly.
“Nothing, just rembering so things,” Qin Xue replied, smiling at her husband.
