Chapter 347: Chapter 347: Fulfilling a Longtime Wish

Mo Jingchun smiled with pursed lips, the sky outside was still dark, where did it become bright?

He must have been in a muddled sleep.

“The fireworks are about to start, just waiting for you, little lazybones.”

“Guoguo is not a little lazybones, it’s brother who is.”

The little one objected verbally, but his body was honest.

Without his brother having to say much, the little guy was already up and about.

In just a moment, the sound of fireworks and firecrackers resounded everywhere.

Clearly, the New Year’s bell had rung.

Every household was setting off fireworks and firecrackers to welcome the New Year.

Fortunately, Mo Jingchun and Candy caught the last bus of the New Year.

They promptly lit the neatly arranged fireworks and firecrackers.

“Boom boom boom~” “Wow~”

“So beautiful~”

Mo Jingchun nodded in agreement.

Fireworks are beautiful, never out of date.

The only regret is that even in Huo County town, fireworks are banned.

Without fireworks, how can it be called New Year?

The festive atmosphere is gone.

Thinking of this, Mo Jingchun couldn’t help shaking his head.

Maybe it’s not that the festive atmosphere is gone, but that he has grown up and can no longer find the joys of childhood.

Look, isn’t the little one extremely happy?

A month ago, the little one was already looking forward to the New Year.

Here, the lucky money in his pocket is already peeking out.

Bang~

As the last firework exploded in the sky, the sky instantly darkened.

Only far away, you could still see flickering fireworks, and a few seconds later, the sound of firecrackers reached the ears.

“Why are you still dazed, get ready to grab red envelopes.”

As soon as Mo Jingchun finished speaking, everyone took out their phones and started refreshing continuously.

“Someone message in the group, I can’t find our group chat.”

Buzz~ Buzz~ Buzz~

“Get ready, I’m about to send.”

“I’m really about to send.”

Everyone chuckled, their hands constantly refreshing their phones, while their peripheral vision kept an eye on the boss’s hand.

“Sent, grab it quick!”

The red envelopes were snatched up within three seconds.

“Tsk tsk tsk, your hand speed is really fast.”

Speaking, Mo Jingchun seized the moment when everyone wasn’t paying attention and secretly sent another.

“Oh man, boss, you’re ambushing us.”

“Ah, I only got 99 cents, this luck must not be awake yet.”

“Oh, ambushed again. Haha, luckily I was vigilant.”

Returning to the bedroom, Mo Jingchun twisted his sore arm.

Sending red envelopes like this is too inefficient.

“Zero, send ten red envelopes in each group for me.”

“Finish sending in five minutes, the time interval is random.”

“Boss, can Zero understand this as you being lazy?”

Mo Jingchun chuckled softly, then said, “How can this be called laziness?”

“This is called working efficiently.”

“Moreover, you do nothing all day, yet I still have to pay for your electricity every day.”

“What’s wrong with having you do something?”

“Boss, you’re always right.”

It must be right, if the boss stops paying for electricity, without the support of a supercomputer, the computing power would plummet.

On the first day of Chinese New Year, Mo Jingchun took the little one for a round to visit each household to wish a Happy New Year.

The little one reaped a bountiful harvest, as Mo Jingchun’s ten fingers were all carrying red plastic bags.

The bags were filled with treats given by each household for the little one.

The little one even carried a bag himself.

“Brother, look!”

“It’s an excavator!”

Mo Jingchun had already seen it, such loud noise, how could he not notice?

What Mo Jingchun didn’t expect was that on the first day of the New Year, they could still find someone to clear snow in the village.

No mistake, it was not an excavator at all.

It was a large bulldozer instead.

Mo Jingchun glanced at it briefly, then turned to the little one and said:

“That’s a bulldozer, not an excavator.”

“Excavators have long arms.”

“Oh~”

“Brother, what are we eating for lunch?”

“Leftovers.”

“Huh???”

“Well, we have so many leftovers from last night, what should we do if we don’t finish them?”

“We don’t even have pigs at home.”

Thinking of a big fat pig, the little one couldn’t help shivering.

“Yuck, definitely don’t want one.”

Three days later, after resting at home for a few days and spending time with family, Wild Wolf and the others came by bus.

With someone switching shifts, it was natural for Feiyan and the others to happily take off.

Having a rare holiday, of course, you have to cherish it.

“Wild Wolf, take them to the county’s bus station.”

“Be cautious on the road, there might still be some icy places that haven’t melted.”

“Okay, boss.”

During the first lunar month, there’s nothing else to do, either visiting relatives or on the way to visit them.

Today at Grandpa’s house, tomorrow at Aunt’s house, the next day at Second Aunt’s house.

Every day eating delicious food, fish and meat.

These past few days, Candy had no appetite for the fish and meat.

Instead, salted vegetables, something not often eaten, became the little one’s favorite.

Tomorrow is the day to erect the tombstone for mom and dad, and Uncle sat by the fire mumbling.

Mo Jingchun just kept nodding.

After a long while, Mo Changyou frowned deeply, like the character “川”.

“Xiaochun.”

“I’ve discussed with your big brother and the others for a few days and decided to start a small company.”

“In the future, help your big brother keep an eye, just don’t let anyone swindle him.”

“I’ll try my best.”

“Alright then, I’ll head back first, remember to get up early tomorrow, don’t miss the auspicious time for the tombstone erection.”

The next morning, just as Mo Jingchun got up, Uncle and Aunt rode over on a clunky motorcycle.

Looking at Uncle’s clunky motorcycle, Mo Jingchun jokingly said, “Uncle, this clunky bike should be replaced.”

“Nonsense. This motorcycle has accompanied me for over ten years and hasn’t broken down, why replace it?”

“Plus, replacing it with a new motorcycle would cost several thousand yuan.”

A little past six, everyone arrived.

Mo Jingchun also woke Candy up.

“Raise the jade tablet, the heavenly gate opens, left dragon right tiger, lined up on both sides. Descendants will prosper, ranks and titles attained. Mountains descend a true dragon, with cosmic righteousness flourishing here. Passing on scholarly virtues brings glory, the flags of top scholars raised in every generation.”

In front of the grave, Mo Jingchun kneeled beside Candy, burning paper.

Everyone worked together to erect the tombstone.

As the eldest, Uncle continually spoke auspicious words.

“I now write with my pen towards the heavenly court, the twenty-four mountains become sacred spirits, Confucius grants me the writing pen, for all generations, I can succeed.”

All morning, the sound of firecrackers continued on the back hills; these were from relatives and neighboring folks coming to take fireworks and firecrackers.

Of course, among these were lots of fireworks bought by Mo Jingchun.

And as for the paper being burned, it goes without saying.

With so much paper money, surely mom and dad won’t lack money to spend down there for a while.

If… it could really reach them.

“Brother, so hot~”

Candy held yellow paper, trying to block the heatwave.

The little one’s hair was already stuck with a layer of paper ash.

“Guoguo, go over to Aunt’s, it’s not hot over there.”

Candy glanced in Aunt’s direction, stood up, dusted off his knees, and walked towards Aunt.
