Chapter 161 - 161 The New Year
161 The New Year
Looking at the written blessings before him, He Xing asked Du Yue, “Do we have to paste these blessings on the door?”
“That’s right! I’ve already made the paste. Let’s go paste them now!”
The two of them took the written blessings and walked out of the bedroom. Other than the door outside, there were written blessings pasted on the door of every other room. They also stuck flower patterns on the windows. With red in the house, it felt more like the new year.
Du Yue looked at the written blessings in front of her and felt a little emotional. However, she quickly pulled herself out of her thoughts and found a photo ID from her interspace. She called He Xing over. “Come here quickly. Let’s take a few photos!” Although the resolution was not as clear as other cameras, the good thing was that the film did not need to be developed, and the photos could be directly printed out.
While He Xing was admiring their photo together, Du Yue closed her eyes and searched through her interspace for a while before she finally found a large photo album. Coincidentally, the cover of the photo album was also red, which matched the day very well.
Du Yue wrote down the date on the bottom right corner of the photo and put it into the album. “Let’s take a photo every week from now on. When we’re old and see these photos again, it’ll be like we’re watching a movie that only belongs to the two of us.”
He Xing took the photo album in his hand and looked it over. “If we take photos every week, this album won’t be able to hold so many photos. Even if the two of us can only live for 300 years, this small book can’t hold more than 200 years’ worth of photos!”
Listening to He Xing’s serious words, Du Yue’s eyes curved into crescents as she was moved. “It’s okay. There are many photo albums in the interspace. Even if we can live to 350 years old, I have enough photo albums!”
He Xing nodded and said, “That’s good. It’s just that it’ll be more troublesome in the future. If we have to look at photos from more than 200 years ago, it’ll take at least three days and three nights.”
Du Yue was speechless. ‘I shouldn’t have expected you to be romantic, even if it’s just once!’
She changed the topic immediately. “Aren’t we having dumplings tonight? Come on! I’ll teach you how to make dumplings!” The two of them went back to the bedroom and washed their hands first. Then, Du Yue took out a large stainless steel basin from her interspace. She also took out some flour. She taught He Xing the first step of making dumplings, which was kneading the dough.
After the dough was kneaded, she placed it in the basin, covered it with a lid, and placed it aside to rise. Then, she chopped the meat filling and seasoned it. Only the two of them were eating, so they did not prepare too much—only two kinds of fillings. One was the shrimp with three other ingredients, while the other was the beef with scallion.
By the time the fillings were ready, the dough was ready too. He Xing had learned how to cook from Du Yue for a long time, and it was not in vain. Du Yue had only taught him how to make dumplings once, but he had already learned how to do it. Furthermore, every dumpling he made was beautiful.
Du Yue was in charge of rolling the dough while he was in charge of wrapping the dumpling. The two of them even took out the tablet and placed it on the table. The TV show that they had not finished watching was playing on the tablet. As for the Spring Festival Gala, of course, they would have to wait until they had dumplings at night. Their New Year’s Eve dinner started at eight o ‘clock and ended at 12.
The two of them cooked a table full of dishes and had the dumplings at midnight. After finishing the dumplings, He Xing took out a red box from his backpack. Du Yue had noticed He Xing’s backpack when she saw him this morning, but she did not ask further. She knew that He Xing must have hidden a gift in his backpack to surprise her, so she pretended not to know.
Looking at the red box in front of her, Du Yue’s eyes were filled with surprise as she was touched. She said in a jubilant tone, “Is this… Is this a New Year’s gift for me?”
“Yes, quickly open it and take a look!”
Du Yue’s pitch-black eyes glowed as she carefully opened the box in front of her.
The moment the lid was removed, Du Yue saw what was inside the box. “It’s… a gun?”
“Yes, this gun is called a laser gun. The shooting speed is 0.4, and each shot consumes 120 energy points. The power is amazing. I’m confident that I’ll stand by your side and protect you forever. However, I still want to give it to you. Do you still remember the TV show we watched some time ago? There was a saying that it’s better to teach a man to fish than to give him fish. I’m giving it to you in hopes that it can protect you, but I hope even more that everything will go smoothly for you in the future and that you won’t encounter any danger.”
He Xing explained it word by word. As Du Yue listened, tears welled up in her eyes, and her nose began to sting. She blinked before saying, “Thank you. I like it very much. I’ve also prepared a gift for you.” As Du Yue spoke, she took out the gift she had prepared earlier from her interspace.
Looking at the written blessings before him, He Xing asked Du Yue, “Do we have to paste these blessings on the door?”
