"It wagged its tail!" Stone said excitedly.
Lin Chu touched New Year's Eve's head. "It's okay, don't be afraid. Are you hungry? These are for you. "
New Year's Eve seemed to understand. Instead of going to eat, she walked over first and rubbed against their legs a few times. After getting close to them one by one, she turned back and licked the milk tentatively. When she tasted the fragrance, she wolfed it down and gulped it down.
Lin Chu got up to prepare dinner. The dinner for the New Year's Eve dinner was very simple. The old dean had already cooked beef, pork liver, pork belly, tripe, smoked fish, and made pork skin jelly. She had also bought a roast chicken on the way here. As long as they were all cut up, they would be a few dishes. She cooked a plate of shrimp, steamed a fish, fried two plates of vegetables, and mixed ham, cucumber, and vermicelli together. It was very simple, but it was the children's favorite. She also mixed a plate of assorted fruit salad.
After all, there were only two adults, her and the old dean. The rest of the children didn't eat much. They couldn't finish all of this tonight.
Just as she cut the braised food into a plate, she received a call from Wang Jinglin.
Lin Chu looked at the caller ID on the phone screen and raised her eyebrows. Since the last wedding, Cheng Ziming's parents should have hated her to the core, and they really didn't contact her again. Today, they couldn't be calling to wish her a happy Chinese New Year, right?
Lin Chu washed his hands, picked up the phone, and coldly said, "Auntie."
"Lin Chu, you didn't go back for New Year's today?" Wang Jinglin asked.
Lin Chu raised his eyebrows and asked knowingly, "Go back where?"
"Lin Chu, how did you become like this? You know where I'm talking about. You were such a kind girl, but now you become so scheming for wealth. You really disappoint me. "Wang Jinglin's voice sounded very painful.
Impatience flashed across Lin Chu's face. He wanted to hang up the phone directly, but he heard Wang Jinglin say, "The Lin family raised you, but you messed up Ziming and Yuwen's wedding. You didn't even go back for the New Year. How … How did you become so hard-hearted?"
"Aren't you being too nosy?" Lin Chu didn't hide his ridicule. He was too lazy to be polite with Wang Jinglin anymore.
She really didn't care whether she offended Wang Jinglin or not. If she continued to be polite to her, Wang Jinglin would continue to pester her in the future. This kind of self-righteous accusation was simply ridiculous and annoying.
She didn't want to pursue the matter of whether Wang Jinglin and her husband knew about Cheng Ziming's betrayal beforehand. From the looks of it, they probably knew about it. In the future, if she kept in contact with her ex-boyfriend's family, Yan Beicheng would feel disgusted.
It wasn't worth it to make Yan Beicheng uncomfortable for these people.
"Your family and the Lin family are in-laws, but you don't have to go so far as to interfere with the Lin family's affairs, do you? Whether or not I go back for the New Year, where I spend the New Year, who I'll let down, who I'll let down, what does it have to do with you? I've already hardened my heart and cut all ties with the Lin Family. Why do you think I should still listen to your accusations? What position and status do you have to judge me? "Lin Chu said bluntly.
"You …" Wang Jinglin was so angry that she trembled. She looked around the house. It was supposed to be a lively New Year's Eve, a day for family reunion, but the house was empty.
Her son got married, but it seemed like he was the one who got married. He ran over to the Lin Family during the New Year to reunite with them, leaving her and Cheng Jindong staring at each other at home. They happily prepared a table full of dishes, but no one came back to eat.
He was even worse than when he wasn't married!
Wang Jinglin's tears fell, and she said with a sobbing tone, "Lin Chu, are you taking revenge on our family? You asked Yan Beicheng to threaten the Lin Family so that they wouldn't dare to cause trouble for you during the New Year. They didn't dare to call you to go back to the Lin Family. Not to mention that if outsiders found out, your reputation would be bad. You even caused Ziming to not be able to spend the New Year at home. Because you didn't go back to the Lin Family for the New Year, there were only Mr. and Mrs. Lin. Yuwen couldn't bear it and was afraid that they would be lonely, so she went back for the New Year. Ziming naturally followed. But did you think about our family? Only your uncle and I are left. I – "
"What does this have to do with me?" Lin Chu asked coldly.
Wang Jinglin was stunned. "What?"
"I said, Lin Yuwen was afraid that her parents would be lonely at home during the New Year, so she brought Cheng Ziming back to accompany them. What does leaving the two of you at home have to do with me? Lin Yuwen is your daughter-in-law. If you have any dissatisfaction, go talk to her. Cheng Ziming is your son. In order to please the Yue Family, he didn't care about his own parents. If you are unhappy, go talk to him. How ridiculous is it to say that I implicated you? I can't bear the responsibility if you say that it's because I didn't go back to the Lin Family. I didn't go back for the New Year in the past, and I won't go back this year either. If the Lin Family wants me to go back this year, it's because of my relationship with Beicheng. But why should I give them face? Beicheng didn't want me to be in a bad mood during the New Year, so they solved it for me in advance. I'm very happy. If you think that I'm heartless and cold-hearted, then do you think that I will sympathize with you with your cold heart after you called me? "
"I won't. Mrs. Cheng, don't call me in the future. I won't pick up even if you do. I'm such a heartless person. Especially regarding your family and the Lin Family, it has nothing to do with me. If you want Beicheng to threaten your family and Cheng Ziming's future, then go ahead and call me. "Lin Chu said without any trace of politeness.
"You … You …" When Wang Jinglin heard Lin Chu's threat, her face turned pale. Her lips trembled and her teeth chattered. She was so angry that she almost couldn't speak. "How can you talk to me like that? I … I'm your elder!"
"Sorry, I'm in a hurry for New Year's Eve dinner." Lin Chu said and hung up. He didn't even say goodbye. He didn't want Wang Jinglin to pester him and say something outrageous again.
After dinner, he took advantage of the programs that the children didn't like to watch and took the children to the courtyard to set off fireworks. The children were so excited that they couldn't breathe. It was afraid of the sound of firecrackers on New Year's Eve, so it ran to the kitchen and hid with its tail between its legs. The old director saw it and wrapped it in a blanket to comfort it. On New Year's Eve, it was also very smart. It rubbed its little head against the old director's chest, making the old director overjoyed.
When it was 12 o 'clock, Lin Chu went to cook dumplings. The phone in her jeans pocket vibrated. She looked at the pot while taking out her phone. She was worried that it was the Lin Family or Wang Jinglin again, but when she realized it was Yan Beicheng, the corner of her mouth curled up.
He didn't call her the whole day. She thought he was so busy that he forgot.
"Hello." Lin Chu picked up. She wanted to be a little angry and let him know that she was a little angry that he didn't contact her for a day. However, she didn't expect that for some reason, the voice that came out of her mouth was extremely gentle and docile. Not to mention being angry, it was simply too gentle.
When the sound of firecrackers outside reached the kitchen, it was much quieter, but it still affected her hearing. She vaguely heard Yan Beicheng laugh.
"Nothing much. I just wanted to be the first to wish you a happy New Year." Yan Beicheng's magnetic and hoarse voice sounded.
He could faintly hear the sound of firecrackers and fireworks on the other side. It felt especially lively.
Listening to his voice and the sound of firecrackers and fireworks, she actually felt especially warm in the middle of the night.
"Happy New Year. Am I the first person to wish you a happy New Year?" Lin Chu also asked.
"Yes, before they told me, I quickly ran away. I called you first," Yan Beicheng said with a slight smile.
Lin Chu thought of that scene and smiled.
Yan Ningbai's shout came from the other end of the phone. "Nephew, come and eat the dumplings!"
"Go, I'm almost done cooking. I'm ready to eat," Lin Chu said.
Yan Beicheng hung up.
