Chapter 346: Chapter 346: Brother, Is It Morning Yet?

In the evening, the little one got to eat the roasted sweet potatoes as he wished.

Thanks to the little one, Mo Jingchun and Feiyan and the others got to enjoy delicious sweet potato noodle soup in the evening.

“Boohoo~ Boss, I apply to have sweet potato noodle soup again tomorrow morning, it’s just too delicious.”

Hawkeye’s words made Candy’s eyes light up.

If it’s sweet potato noodle soup again tomorrow morning, then maybe getting up a bit earlier isn’t such a bad idea.

At most… at most, eat until I’m full and then go back upstairs to sleep.

As a little foodie, how can I miss out on delicious food just because of sleeping?

Mo Jingchun finished the soup in his bowl and gave Hawkeye a sideways glance.

“What happens if you eat too many sweet potatoes? Guoguo is still small and doesn’t know, but don’t you guys know either?”

“This thing is fine to eat occasionally, but it’s not tasty if you eat too much.”

“If you ask me, rice is still the staple.”

On the twenty-ninth day of the twelfth lunar month, only one day left until New Year’s Eve.

On this day, Mo Jingchun and Guoguo didn’t go anywhere.

Instead, Hawkeye and the others were very proactive, getting up in the morning and starting to shovel the snow, clearing the asphalt road covered with snow.

The snow in the yard was also piled together, almost as tall as a person.

But it seemed that the heavy snow showed no signs of stopping.

An hour later, another layer of snow had accumulated on the ground.

With nothing much to do, Feiyan and the others enjoyed shoveling the snow.

In the yard, they had even built a snowman taller than a person.

Wearing a down jacket and a hat, Candy rubbed her eyes in disbelief as she stepped out the door.

Wow! That’s a huge snowman.

“Guoguo, come and brush your teeth and wash your face.”

“Oh~ coming~”

Actually, at that moment, Candy internally resisted.

Candy thought, well, she had already rubbed her eyes clean just now.

With this much snow, anyway, she couldn’t go out today.

Near the fire pit, Bun lay on the ground, not moving, thoroughly enjoying himself.

“Ugh! How did I end up with lazy teammates again, it’s driving me crazy.”

“Hoo~ hoo~ hoo~”

Frustrated, Candy blew her bangs, making them bounce.

Mo Jingchun just looked but said nothing.

During this time, whether working people or students, everyone was on holiday.

The chances of encountering teammates who would drag you down naturally increased.

Especially some naughty elementary school kids who liked to be annoying.

An hour later, Candy was gnashing her teeth in anger.

“Hmph ╭(╯^╰)╮, not playing anymore.”

“What a lousy game, it’s not fun at all.”

Looking at the angry little one, Mo Jingchun joked with a smile:

“How about I uninstall it from your phone?”

“Uh… maybe let’s not do that.”

“Actually, playing occasionally is quite fun.”

In the afternoon, like Guoguo, Mo Jingchun was dozing off next to the fire pit.

Just then, footsteps came from outside.

Then followed by several thumping sounds.

Someone was stamping their feet in the corridor to shake off the snow from their shoes.

Hearing the sounds, Feiyan got up and went outside.

Soon, Mo Changyou came in, holding an umbrella.

“Uncle, come and warm by the fire.”

“No, I came to ask if you’re celebrating New Year’s together or separately this year?”

In the past, Mo Changyou didn’t need to make this trip; the three families would definitely celebrate New Year’s together.

But this year was different; Mo Jingchun brought back seven bodyguards.

With just the bodyguards, they could fill a table.

So, he needed to ask Xiaochun’s opinion to make arrangements.

Mo Jingchun scratched his head and said, “I think I’ll sit this one out this year, otherwise there’s no way everyone could fit at one table.”

“I’ll just celebrate New Year’s with them this year.”

Mo Changyou nodded and said, “Alright then.”

“I’ll head back now.”

Mo Jingchun got up and walked his uncle to the yard.

“Uncle, be careful on the slippery roads with all this snow.”

“Don’t worry.”

After seeing his uncle off, Mo Jingchun returned to sit by the fire and said with a smile to everyone, “Come on, come on, tomorrow is New Year’s Eve. If there’s anything you’d like to eat, feel free to say so.”

“As long as we have the ingredients, I can make it for you.”

As soon as Mo Jingchun finished speaking, Candy was the first to raise her hand.

“Big Bro, Guoguo wants to eat little river prawns.”

“Granted.”

“Boss, I want to eat braised pork.”

“Sure!”

……

On New Year’s Eve, after calling home, Feiyan and the others were all in the kitchen helping Mo Jingchun.

Only Candy was happily sitting in the living room, watching cartoons.

Maybe the heavens also thought today was a good day.

Yesterday it was snowing heavily, but this morning, it had already stopped.

Judging by the thickness of the snow, it must have stopped last night already.

“Feiyan, pass me the pieces of meat.”

“Okay~”

While Feiyan and the other seven were his employees, Mo Jingchun didn’t treat them as outsiders.

For the New Year’s Eve dinner, Mo Jingchun cooked six pots, all filled with meat.

“We can start lighting the firecrackers now, it’s time to eat.”

Whoosh~~ Bang~

Whoosh~~ Bang~

“Come on, let’s all have a drink together. Wishing everyone a healthy and prosperous new year.”

“Cheers!”

Candy stood on a chair, stretching out her hand, wanting to toast with milk too.

The New Year’s Eve dinner went from a little past five in the afternoon to almost eight, lasting about two hours.

Although Mo Jingchun kept urging them to drink, Hawkeye and the others remained restrained and didn’t drink much alcohol.

They did drink quite a bit of soda though.

Watching the Spring Festival Gala, only then did Mo Jingchun pick up his phone to check his messages.

Unsurprisingly, multiple apps showed red notifications with 99+ messages.

Even the text messages were no exception.

Every time this happened, Mo Jingchun found it quite bothersome.

Especially since most of these messages needed replying.

Otherwise, it would seem rude, as if he was looking down on others.

Mo Jingchun hoped there were some mass-sent messages among them, those he needn’t reply to.

Unfortunately, no one ever sent him mass messages.

When Mo Jingchun saw the WeChat message from Xia Xiaomin, he let out a small “Oh?”.

“Oh?”

Xia Xiaomin first sent a message of blessings, followed by a series of phone screen captures.

“Big Brother, Big Sister, Happy New Year. In the new year, may all your wishes come true.”

Mo Jingchun saw all the screenshots were messages from the kids in the mountains sending their blessings.

The only phone number left was Xia Xiaomin’s backup number.

The children’s blessings, of course, were all sent to Xia Xiaomin.

Seeing these naive blessings, Mo Jingchun felt warm inside.

At the very least, the phones he bought for the kids were worth it.

With the New Year’s bells about to ring, Mo Jingchun gently patted the already asleep Guoguo.

“Guoguo, Guoguo, it’s time to set off fireworks.”

“Do you want to get up?”

Groggily sitting up, Candy squinted her eyes and asked, “Brother, what did you say?”

“Is it already daylight?”
