Chapter 223: 126, The Taste of the New Year, Lin Mo’s Important Plans for the Future!_8

Ha-ha…

Everyone couldn’t help but laugh, and Lin Mo also gave a helpless wry smile and shook his head.

Then it was Lin Changshui’s turn,

aided by Lin Mo and Xu Qin, he kowtowed several times, and after standing up, he said, “Dad, Mom, it’s my incompetence that I haven’t been able to make our family flourish, but fortunately, there’s a good son in the house now. Your descendant Lin Mo has made a name for himself.”

“You’ve also seen how lively our home has been recently, right?”

“As far as I can remember, our family has never been this lively, and we’ve never been so esteemed in the village.”

“Life is getting better and better, we lack nothing at home, ancestors, remember to come back for the New Year, we’ve prepared good food and wine for you all!”

After Lin Changshui finished his prayer, Xu Qin also began to pray to the ancestors.

“Ancestors, if you have spirits in heaven, please heal my daughter’s illness quickly, bless her to live without disease or disaster all her life. Even if it means shortening my life, I’m willing, as long as she gets better.”

As she spoke, Xu Qin began to cry, and it took Lin Mo and the others a long time to console her.

Once their mother’s emotions stabilized, Lin Mo helped Lin Siyu come in front of the ancestral tablets and quietly said, “Sister, do you have anything you want to say to the ancestors?”

Lin Siyu stared blankly at the ancestral tablets, silent, unresponsive.

Seeing this scene, everyone couldn’t help but sigh.

“I’ll speak for you.”

Lin Mo wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes with the back of his hand and after thinking for a moment, he said, “Honored ancestors, everything at home is quite good, little sister has been unwell this year, please do not blame her.”

“From now on, our home will only get better, please rest assured.”

“Dad, light the firecrackers.”

Lin Changshui nodded, gestured to the two relatives outside the door, who understood and lit a long string of firecrackers at the entrance.

Crackle, pop, pop…

As the sound of the firecrackers erupted, everyone stood in the courtyard watching red paper scraps cover the entire entrance.

The loud noise appeared to startle Lin Siyu, who clung to Lin Mo’s arm tightly, her body trembling slightly.

“Don’t be afraid, your brother is here, nothing’s going to happen.”

Lin Mo comforted his little sister, and she seemed to improve a lot.

The principal issue with Lin Siyu now was her frequent spells of absent-mindedness, but the occasional clarity in her eyes showed that her consciousness was slowly recovering.

After having dinner, they sat in the living room for a while, then everyone returned to their respective rooms.

Lin Changshui reminded everyone to sleep early, as they had to get up early the next morning to paste couplets, set off firecrackers, hang lanterns, put up window paper-cuts, offer sacrifices to the kitchen god, and so on—a lot to do.

After going upstairs, Lin Mo busied himself for a while, tidying this and that, and by the time Lin Mo laid on the bed, it was exactly midnight.

The system notification sounded.

…..

Lin Mo read the village gossip with great interest and couldn’t help laughing.

Who would have thought,

the charming widow who seemed to carry her chastity arch wherever she went, was quite the player in secret.

Three men warming up at her place, they’re bound to not feel cold, I bet they might even get burnt.

Seeing Lin Mo’s silly laugh, Li Jinwen asked in confusion, “Husband, what’s wrong?”

Lin Mo answered with a smile, “Nothing, nothing, just remembered something funny.”

Li Jinwen pressed, “What’s that? Tell me about it?”

Just as Lin Mo was thinking of an excuse, he heard soft footsteps outside.

Yo,

here comes the most anticipated event of the year,

Upon hearing the footsteps, Lin Mo quickly made a shushing gesture and whispered, “Shh, dad and mom are coming.”

Li Jinwen understood and nodded, keeping silent.

After a while, Lin Changshui and Xu Qin tiptoed in, placed a red envelope by their bedside, and then tiptoed out.

When there was no more sound outside, Lin Mo excitedly picked up the thick red envelope and said with a smile, “Guess how much money it is this year?”

“This thick?” Li Jinwen was surprised at the thickness of the envelope and guessed, “It must be seven or eight thousand, right?”

“I think so too, let’s open it and see!” Lin Mo, excited, opened the red envelope and pulled out a stack of bright red banknotes, saying with a laugh, “Eight thousand eight hundred eighty-eight, boom, boom, boom!”

Li Jinwen laughed and asked, “How much do you think they’ll give Xiaoxiao?”

Lin Mo also laughed and replied, “Definitely more than us, she’s the apple of their eye.”

Then, lowering his voice again, Lin Mo added, “Shall we go have a look?”

Li Jinwen nodded repeatedly, “Let’s go!”

“Let’s go!”

The two put on their coats, with sly grins on their faces, they sneakily left their room and went into their daughter’s room next door.
