Chapter 1056: Yanyan’s Boyfriend Is Really Capable!
On the twenty-ninth day of the lunar New Year, Mu Chen suddenly said he wanted to return home for the celebration.The home he referred to was the place where he and Mu Yan had lived for more than a decade, which had later been taken over by Zheng Shufen’s family.
The house has now been returned to Mu Chen’s name.
Mu Yan didn’t hesitate and contacted a housekeeper to clean it up. On New Year’s Eve, they went back together.
The house was still the same, but the furnishings inside had changed.
Back then, before Zheng Shufen’s family was expelled, they sold all the valuables, including the furniture.
Since those pieces of furniture were of an old style, they couldn’t be found anymore, so there was no way to restore them to their original state.
However, Mu Yan had already had the house renovated, and now it looked very bright.
In the alley, in the morning, every family was busy cleaning furniture, full of bustle. By afternoon, the adults were at home, preparing the New Year’s reunion dinner.
The children had changed into new clothes and were running around the alley, laughing and shouting, adding to the liveliness.
Mu Yan stood at the door watching the children running away, recalling her childhood when neighbor’s kids threw firecrackers at her deliberately to scare her to tears, and Chenchen was so angry, he found them and fought.
At that time, she discovered that her seemingly weak brother was actually quite formidable.
She also knew he had accepted her as his elder sister.
Turning her head, she discovered Mu Chen had somehow appeared beside her.
Seeing him dressed thinly, she frowned slightly, "Why are you wearing so little, be careful not to catch a cold, hurry inside."
"Okay." Mu Chen nodded and turned to walk inside.
Mu Yan was about to follow him in when suddenly a neighbor came over to visit and brought them some freshly made braised meat.
"Yanyan, Chenchen, Aunt made some braised meat today. You just returned, and surely haven’t prepared much at home, don’t disdain it, just take it."
Mu Yan accepted it and said with a smile, "Thank you, Aunt Li."
"No need to be so polite, we’ve been neighbors for so many years, now your parents aren’t here, we ought to take care of you. If it weren’t for your aunt, you wouldn’t have..." Aunt Li said with a trace of anger in her eyes.
She paused, then smiled again, "Now it’s good, Yanyan is a big star, no one will dare bully you siblings anymore."
"Yes."
Mu Yan chatted briefly with Aunt Li, then Aunt Li left.
She took the bowl of braised meat inside, Jiang Jingheng saw it and asked, "What’s this?"
"The neighbors sent it." Mu Yan replied.
"Okay." Jiang Jingheng nodded, pointing at the couplets on the table and asked, "When to put them up?"
"Around five o’clock, it’s your task," Mu Yan said, "Luo Yao and I will make dinner."
She then looked at Mu Chen beside her, "Chenchen, go to your room to get dressed."
"Okay."
Soon, several other neighbors came over, also bringing things for Mu Yan and her brother.
Looking at the pile of meat and vegetables in the kitchen, Mu Yan was a bit helpless; now everything they bought couldn’t be used.
Thinking for a moment, she said to Jiang Jingheng, "Let’s go buy some gifts now, as a return gift for the neighbors, it wouldn’t be right to receive without giving."
"I’ll have someone send them over." Jiang Jingheng nodded.
"Your assistant doesn’t take a break for New Year?"
"Even on New Year, he can work overtime."
Mu Yan, "..."
Feeling a bit sorry for Lian Jun.
Not long after, Lian Jun delivered a carload of gifts.
Jiang Jingheng was sticking up couplets at that time, standing on a chair, rolling up his sleeves, with absolutely no air of a domineering CEO.
The neighborhood didn’t recognize who he was, but when Mu Yan and the others returned in the morning, there was quite a commotion, and everyone knew he was her boyfriend.
The neighbors were talking, "Yanyan’s boyfriend is really capable, the couplets are put up so neatly, and he’s so handsome, just like a movie star."
Lian Jun, "..."
So, putting up couplets well makes one capable?
