Chapter 666: He Wanted to Celebrate the New Year With Her

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Tan Mo didn’t want to be pretentious, but she was too embarrassed to let Wei Zhiqian sit on the bed here.

“When I was in the old residence, I thought it would be great if I could celebrate the Chinese New Year with you,” Wei Zhiqian said in a low voice.

Fortunately, the sound of fireworks could be heard from outside from time to time, so he wasn’t worried that his voice would be heard by the Tan family.

“That’s why I came over. I didn’t want to come in and disturb your family’s celebration, so I stayed outside to watch,” Wei Zhiqian explained.

He had told Tan Wenci that he wasn’t here to destroy the family but to join it.

Wei Zhiqian knew the number of times Tan Mo ate the reunion dinner at home would gradually decrease.

The days when the Tan family could enjoy their reunion dinner in peace would not last.

He didn’t come in to disturb them and gave the Tan family the privacy to finish their dinner.

However, the moment Wei Zhiqian said this, an image involuntarily appeared in Tan Mo’s mind.

Wei Zhiqian was alone outside in the dark, looking at the brightness of their home and the liveliness inside.

It was the Chinese New Year, yet he was alone watching the liveliness of their home.

It was only because he wanted to observe the Chinese New Year with her.

Even if she didn’t know, it didn’t matter. He just stood outside and watched silently.

“Just come in. What’s there to disturb?” Tan Mo’s heart ached terribly just thinking about it.

Wei Zhiqian touched the stray hair beside her ear. “It’s a once in a year reunion dinner. You won’t have a chance to eat it at home in the future. I can’t take away the last remaining chances for your family to eat with you. The atmosphere will always be different when I’m here.”

Tan Mo blinked and understood what Wei Zhiqian meant.

He meant that when they got married in the future, she would have to eat the reunion dinner at the Wei residence.

His uncle had actually thought about it for such a long time.

Tan Mo felt a hint of sweetness in her heart.

“Uncle, have you not eaten dumplings yet?” Tan Mo suddenly asked.

“Uh huh.” Wei Zhiqian nodded. “The two elders can’t stay up all night, so we’ll eat them tomorrow morning.”

Wei Zhiqian also thought of Tan Mo’s dumplings.

His brows curved slightly. “Do you still have the dumplings you made? If you do, can I have some?”

Tan Mo’s eyes lit up, and she hurriedly nodded.

In any case, the dumplings she made were still very decent as long as the fillings didn’t leak out.

She had already eaten the rice cake fillings and brown sugar fillings inside.

Whatever filling it was, they tasted acceptable.

“Uncle, wait for me,” Tan Mo said immediately. “I’ve made several kinds of dumplings at home. I’ll get you one of each.”

“Okay.” Wei Zhiqian nodded with a smile, looking forward to it.

Even if Tan Mo did not make the filling, she had helped to wrap them, so he could not wait to try them.

Tan Mo quickly went downstairs.

It was dark downstairs. Tan Mo was afraid her parents and brothers would find out, so she didn’t dare to turn on the lights.

She only turned on the flashlight function of her mobile phone to help her find the way.

After entering the kitchen, Tan Mo took out a bowl and took out the leftover dumplings from the refrigerator.

These dumplings were meant to be eaten by the Tan family in the morning.

Auntie Guo would also take a seven-day vacation when she went home for the Chinese New Year.

The Tan family was used to making more dumplings, which could be saved for breakfast the next day.

They could also be eaten on Chinese New Year’s Day, so there was no need to make more dumplings.

Tan Mo took one of each flavor.

Although the shape of her dumplings was the same, the filling inside could be discerned through the translucent dumpling skin at close look.

For example, the dumplings with chestnut filling had a slightly yellowish-brown color coming from inside.

The brown sugar dumplings were flatter in shape like a cake, and the filling was brown.

Jujube dumplings had a red tint on them.

If no color was visible on the dumpling, it was rice cake filling.

Tan Mo took a shrimp meat dumpling, then she boiled water.

Even though the room was warm, they could not eat food straight out of the refrigerator.

She could not let Wei Zhiqian eat cold dumplings.

After cooking, Tan Mo took out the dumplings and placed them into the bowl.

Then she poured out the water in the pot and scrubbed it out.

She didn’t even dare to use the dishwasher.

She did not want her family to notice anything amiss in the morning.

After cleaning up, Tan Mo returned to her room with a bowl of dumplings.

“Uncle, I just cooked them. Why don’t you try them?” Tan Mo gave the bowl and chopsticks to Wei Zhiqian.

“Why is the shape of this dumpling different from the others?” Wei Zhiqian could tell at a glance.

“I didn’t make this one. I made all the dumplings in this shape.” Tan Mo pointed at the dumpling on the side.

Naturally, Wei Zhiqian tried Tan Mo’s dumpling first.

He took a bite. It was filled with rice cake.

He ate another one. It was filled with jujubes.

He ate another one. It was filled with brown sugar.

The last one was filled with chestnuts.

Wei Zhiqian went quiet.

“Didn’t you make any dumplings with normal fillings?” Wei Zhiqian felt puzzled.

Tan Mo couldn’t say that it was because she didn’t know how to make them.

She puffed out her chest with a proud look on her face. “I was only in charge of making special dumplings. When my parents and brothers eat it, it’s like eating coin dumplings. It’s really special!”

Wei Zhiqian thought of Tan Mo’s position in the Tan family and didn’t doubt it for one second.

“Then isn’t my bowl full of good luck?” Wei Zhiqian said with a smile.

“Of course.” Tan Mo nodded seriously. She didn’t feel that she was fooling Wei Zhiqian at all.

If she wanted to fool people, she had to convince herself first.

Tan Mo had a lot of practice doing this.

“Since my dumplings symbolized coins, there aren’t a lot of them. My parents and eldest brother only manage to find one after eating a big plate of dumplings. My second and third older brothers didn’t even find a single one after finishing a whole plate.”

Tan Mo laughed. “Both of them were stuffed. I was afraid that they would burst, so I gave them one each.”

Tan Mo sounded very proud.

Wei Zhiqian understood what she meant.

It was probably because Tan Mo didn’t know how to make dumplings. They did not want to discourage her from participating in the preparation of the spring festival, and they were afraid she would tire herself, so the Tan family gave her this task.

They treated the dumplings Tan Mo had made as lucky dumplings.

Since eating them meant good fortune, their quantity had to be small in order to appear rare.

In this way, Tan Mo didn’t need to make many dumplings. She could participate in the preparations without being exhausted.

However, it was fine no matter what kind of filling it was as long as Tan Mo had made the dumplings.

After eating the hot dumplings, Tan Mo secretly took the bowls and chopsticks back to the kitchen to wash them.

Wei Zhiqian was waiting for her in the room.

When Tan Mo came back, Wei Zhiqian said, “I am relieved to see you.”

“You should rest early,” said Wei Zhiqian before picking up the coat on the sofa and putting it on.

Tan Mo was surprised. Wasn’t her uncle staying?

Her expression was too obvious.

At this moment, everything was written on her face.

“During the first day of the Chinese New Year, you will be busy. You will have to go out to pay respects to others. Also, you will be expecting guests..” Wei Zhiqian explained, “You should have a good rest tonight, or you will be tired tomorrow.”
