Chapter 276 Su Xiaoxiao Saves An Yongshan

Su Xiaoxiao shook her head helplessly, looked at him, and took the firecracker from his hand.

"I'll order for the kids."

Bei Yan, who was standing nearby, wanted to come over and help Pei Yuan, but Pei Yuan wouldn't let her.

"I'm not drunk, I don't need your help."

It seemed that Su Xiaoxiao could support him, but Bei Yan couldn't.

Bei Yan shook her head helplessly, realizing how pathetic she had been.

Pei Yuan looked at Bei Yan with disdain, but Bei Yan didn't care and went back to drinking his wine.

This kind of master is quite easy to serve. Luckily, Pei Yuan said, "What are you doing here? You're in the way."

He couldn't wait to leave and go have his own drink.

"Please be careful, Master."

Xiao Bao was happiest today. Pei Yuan and Su Xiaoxiao set off all the firecrackers she liked. Fireworks kept blooming in the sky, making Xiao Bao and Su Xiaoxiao's faces glow red.

Xiao Bao nestled in Pei Yuan's arms, "Dad, Mom, I want to sleep with you tonight. I don't want to sleep with my brother anymore."

Da Bao, listening nearby, shook his little head unhappily and said, "What do you mean? Xiao Bao, how old are you? You still want to sleep with Mommy. Aren't you ashamed?"

Xiao Bao kept snuggling into Pei Yuan and Su Xiaoxiao's arms, acting like a spoiled brat.

"I don't want to, I insist on sleeping with Mommy tonight. I'm still a child..."

Su Xiaoxiao picked up Xiaobao and said, "Xiaobao is still a child, of course he can sleep with his mother. Dabao will come over today too, and the whole family will sleep together."

Da Bao looked embarrassed and waved his hand dismissively.

"No, I'm a big kid now, I won't bother you."

As he spoke, he gave Su Xiaoxiao and Pei Yuan a sly look, as if to say, "I know what's going on."

Su Xiaoxiao thought to herself, "Where did this child learn to be so cunning?"

Su Xiaoxiao didn't care about anything else; the whole family had to be together tonight.

She wanted Da Bao and Xiao Bao to know that she had never intended to abandon them.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Su Xiaoxiao got up very early after her two children, Da Bao and Xiao Bao, had been kicking and thrashing around all night.

Spring Festival couplets were pasted up in every room, and Su Xiaoxiao got up to prepare breakfast.

When I went to deliver dumplings to An Yongshan yesterday, I found out that he was no longer with us.

Su Xiaoxiao knew the custom on the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year: she still had to eat dumplings.

She used the leftover filling from yesterday to start making dumplings again.

During Chinese New Year, families don't actually need to eat too many dishes; there's usually more meat.

Knowing it would be quite oily, Su Xiaoxiao made a cold dish instead.

These are refreshing side dishes; adding extra chili oil will definitely make them more flavorful.

Su Xiaoxiao discovered that she now really enjoys drinking dumpling soup, as the saying goes, "the original soup helps digest the original food."

Wearing new clothes, Da Bao and Xiao Bao sat together at the table, waiting for Su Xiaoxiao to give them New Year's money.

This is a New Year tradition. After Su Xiaoxiao gave them lucky money, the two children happily came over and kowtowed to Su Xiaoxiao.

Later, when Pei Yuan got up, Su Xiaoxiao realized that the two little devils had already gone to Pei Yuan's bedside and asked for a New Year's money.

Moreover, Pei Yuan was very generous, giving them more than ten times the New Year's money Su Xiaoxiao had given them.

"Have you two learned your lesson?"

Su Xiaoxiao said to the two children reproachfully.

"Anyway, this New Year's money will be mine in the future." After making breakfast, Su Xiaoxiao went into the room to wake Pei Yuan up.

After being drunk last night, Pei Yuan lay on the bed, looking like he hadn't woken up yet.

"Wow, Chinese New Year is so great!" Da Bao clapped his hands. "So much delicious food, and we can't possibly eat it all every day!"

The food was especially delicious today. Su Xiaoxiao even made fish balls, and everyone enjoyed it immensely.

As they were talking, a tall figure walked in, and Su Xiaoxiao recognized him as An Yongshan.

When he came in, he saw that Pei Yuan's face, which had been quite happy, immediately turned somewhat gloomy.

"How did you come?"

Not only Su Xiaoxiao was surprised, but everyone present was as well.

They saw that An Yongshan was covered in wounds and was walking unsteadily.

Da Bao shouted even louder, "Master, are you alright?"

The first person rushed to An Yongshan and helped him up.

However, Da Bao was still very short and could not support his body at all.

Su Xiaoxiao quickly went over to help, and together they helped An Yongshan into the house.

Seeing that he had what looked like knife wounds, and more than one, Su Xiaoxiao quickly took out her first-aid kit to prepare bandages for him.

Pei Yuan stopped her, saying, "Men and women should not touch each other. I forbid you to bandage him."

Su Xiaoxiao glared angrily back at Pei Yuan. "This is a matter of life and death, don't joke around here, okay?"

“This is a life, and besides, he is Da Bao’s master. I have to save him.”

"You're saving him, but you don't even know his background, how he got injured, or who he offended. Aren't you taking a risk?"

Su Xiaoxiao had considered all of Pei Yuan's points, but...

The situation is urgent, and since it involves a human life, Su Xiaoxiao naturally wouldn't stand idly by.

"Get out of the way!"

When Su Xiaoxiao got angry, she yelled at Pei Yuan.

This statement was quite intimidating, startling Pei Yuan. He had never seen Su Xiaoxiao so angry before.

He let go of her hand, and Su Xiaoxiao quickly grabbed the first-aid kit to help An Yongshan.

Su Xiaoxiao was no stranger to rescuing people. She first chased all the children out of the house, leaving Bei Yan to help.

Liu Qiaomei was still an unmarried woman and it was inconvenient for her to stay here.

Although Bei Yan was unwilling, Pei Yuan had ordered him to help, so he naturally dared not disobey his master Pei Yuan's command.

After treating An Yongshan's wounds, Su Xiaoxiao helped him to her room and told him to lie in bed and rest.

An Yongshan looked weakly at Su Xiaoxiao, "Don't you want to know how I got hurt?"

Su Xiaoxiao shook her head. "No matter what others say, I will always believe in you. Once you're healed, I believe you won't hide anything from me this time."

Su Xiaoxiao went back to her home and burned the blood-stained cotton wadding and clothes that she had used to treat An Yongshan's wounds.

Su Xiaoxiao doesn't care about these things. Some people would find it very unlucky to touch these things on the first day of the Lunar New Year.

At this time, the sound of firecrackers began to ring out from house to house in the village, one after another, signifying the start of the new year.

With the sound of firecrackers, the old year is over and the new year has officially begun.

The villagers of Baihua Village have had a relatively good year, hence the constant sound of firecrackers in celebration. Having grown accustomed to hardship, the poor people, no matter how difficult the previous year had been, still look forward to the new year with the same anticipation as a first love.
