91: New Year

Mother Jiang, Su Wan, remembered that the couplets hadn't been pasted yet and called out to the three lazy ones.

"He He, Xiao Yan, Xiao Nan, go and paste all those couplets and 'Fu' characters."

"Okay, we got it!"

The three siblings took the couplets and 'Fu' characters that Mu Jin had handed over, which they had bought when shopping for New Year's goods earlier.

"A bit higher, the left and right sides aren't aligned."

"How about this?"

"The right side needs to go up more."

"Yes, yes, right there."

The three siblings were busy pasting outside with great enthusiasm, and they could be heard from inside the house.

On New Year's Eve, the whole family sat together for the New Year's Eve dinner.

Jiang Li stood up with her wine glass alongside Fu Xiangqi. "This is the first time our two families are spending the New Year together. May we have many more years like this."

"Many more years like this, Happy New Year!"

"Cheers!"

Mu Jin and Mu Nuan had left in the afternoon to return to their own homes and spend the New Year with their parents.

Looking at the dishes on the table, they had all been prepared by everyone together.

They were perfect in color, aroma, and taste.

Jiang Li was taken care of by Fu Xiangqi, Mother Jiang had Father Jiang, and Mother Fu had Father Fu.

Seeing this, the three siblings Jiang He, Jiang Yan, and Jiang Nan felt a pang of envy; they also wanted their own boyfriends/girlfriends.

Xie Huaian was also spending the New Year with his parents, and he sent Jiang He a red envelope of 99,999 yuan.

Mo Jinnan was spending the New Year with his mother. Having successfully broken free from the Mo family this year, they were very happy. While chatting with Jiang Yan, he also sent her a New Year red envelope.

Xia Anmeng, who was spending the New Year with her grandmother, saw the message sent by Jiang Nan. The corners of her mouth curled up unconsciously as she replied.

Jiang Nan also sent a red envelope of 10,000 yuan to bring some joy.

He knew that if he sent too much, Xia Anmeng wouldn't accept it.

Jiang Li and Fu Xiangqi stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, watching the snow falling outside.

"Lili, Happy New Year!"

"Happy New Year!"

Everyone else was also busy with their own entertainment.

Grandma Jiang was playing Mahjong with Mother Jiang, Mother Fu, and Grandma Fu.

It seemed like a lot of fun.

Grandpa Fu and Grandpa Jiang continued their fierce battle in Xiangqi.

Father Fu and Father Jiang were playing Go. The lively atmosphere felt truly wonderful.

Jiang He and the others were chatting with their significant others.

The snow outside was pure and white, while the New Year atmosphere inside was warm and bustling.

Jiang Li and Fu Xiangqi took Jiang He along to play games.

After the New Year's Eve vigil ended, everyone went to rest. They would start visiting relatives the next day.

Fu Xiangqi's relatives were mostly here and lived quite close.

But Jiang Li's were further away, and she was wondering whether to take a plane or something else.

【Ding~, it's a new day. Would you like to sign in?】

"Sign in."

Jiang Li replied while picking out her clothes for the day.

【Ding~, sign-in successful. Reward: 1 billion yuan in cash and ten helicopters, which are now waiting at the Shanghai airport.】

Hearing this, Jiang Li felt the system really knew how to solve an urgent problem.

"Mom, Dad, let's go by helicopter. It'll be faster."

"Okay, Lili, you just arrange it. I'll go tell your grandmother and the others."

Perhaps because Jiang Li and the others were now successful, Grandma Jiang and the rest had also broadened their horizons.

If anyone in the village said girls were useless, Grandma Jiang would retort, proudly stating how capable her three granddaughters were.

When Grandma Jiang heard the plan, although she was a bit scared, she agreed and was even somewhat excited.

Fu Xiangqi helped Jiang Li pack her things. "Lili, I'll come find you as soon as I'm done here!"

"Okay, I know. Mwah!" Jiang Li took the suitcase, gave Fu Xiangqi a kiss, and left.

Fu Xiangqi watched her board the helicopter and then left as well.

Meng Wenrui sat in the passenger seat. "Boss, the castle over there is almost finished. Do you want to go take a look?"

Fu Xiangqi thought for a moment. "Let's go see it."

"Yes."

They arrived at a mountain island where the surrounding facilities were exceptionally well-decorated.

There were exquisite paths, and as the car drove through the castle gates, one could see walls of roses on both sides, as well as gardens, pavilions, and fountains.

The castle was situated right in the center of the mountain island.

The entire structure was built in gold and white, looking magnificent and ethereal.

The castle itself occupied nearly five thousand square meters, not to mention the surrounding gardens and other features.

"Boss, the back garden has also been planted with pear trees according to your instructions, and there is a conservatory."

"Mm, I see. How is the interior decoration coming along?"

"The furniture is still being crafted, but the rest is almost done. It's all diamonds and gold shipped from South Africa."

"Mm, remember to buy more gold and gemstone ornaments to place in appropriate spots. Have the gold and diamonds been placed on the stairs?"

"They've been inlaid, following the pattern of a pear tree."

As they spoke, several of them entered the golden castle and saw the interior decoration.

It was very bright.

Everything had been done according to his instructions.

Diamonds and gold were everywhere.

"Mm, very good. When the furniture is delivered, be careful. Some areas are in Chinese style, while others are in different styles. Don't let them mix them up."

"Understood, Boss."

Fu Xiangqi spent three hours touring the castle on a hovercar.

Seeing that it was already eleven o'clock, Father Fu's call came through. "Qiqi, where are you? We're about to set off!"

"Okay, I'll be right there!"

After hanging up, he found Meng Wenrui and Meng Tianyi. "Let's go, to the airport."

"Yes, Boss."

They planned to go to the Capital, where an old family friend resided. The whole family had to go visit... Meanwhile, at Qindao Island,

Jiang Li's helicopter landed at the Qindao Island airport, where dedicated personnel were already waiting to receive them.

After everyone got off, Father Jiang and Mother Jiang were fine, but Grandma Jiang and Grandpa Jiang felt a bit unwell, though fortunately, it wasn't a major issue.

Jiang Li saw the person in charge. "Sorry to trouble you. The helicopter will be left here."

"Certainly, Miss Jiang, please rest assured."

They didn't dare to make any careless moves; this was a helicopter worth hundreds of millions, and they couldn't afford any damages.

Father Jiang had already contacted Yiyi Logistics Company to have a business van driven over.

After Jiang Li and the others got into the car, they first went to the hospital to have the two elderly people checked.

Once the check-up showed no issues, they left.

Jiang Li and the others went to the villa they had purchased here. Fortunately, they had booked someone to clean it beforehand and turned on the floor heating in advance. The temperature inside the villa was comfortable, so the family began to rest.

Grandma Jiang and Grandpa Jiang went to their room, as did Father Jiang, Mother Jiang, and Jiang Li's group.

Jiang Li reported her whereabouts to Fu Xiangqi, letting him know she had arrived safely.

It was now afternoon, and they had an appointment for dinner, so a restaurant needed to be reserved in advance.

An hour later, Fu Xiangqi still hadn't replied. She thought he might be busy and would surely reply once he saw it.

Mother Jiang came to knock on the door. "Lili, are you awake?"

"Mom, I'm up. I'll be out in a moment."

"Okay, Lili, your father has already finished booking the restaurant. We'll leave in a bit."

"Mm, got it. I'm coming right now!"

Mother Jiang also went to call Jiang Yan and the others.

Then, everyone headed out together.
