On the twenty-ninth day before the New Year, everyone who was supposed to come home had basically arrived, all staying at Fang Pingying's home to celebrate the entire month.
Fang Pingying's house, due to the small villa they were living in this year, didn't lack room, unlike previous years when during the New Year, everyone would squeeze in, a couple here, a couple there, all staying at Fang Pingying's, making it particularly lively.
Even though conditions had improved and they didn't lack for anything, Fang Pingying insisted on doing many things herself, like making steamed buns, dumplings, and fried meatballs, always feeling that making them herself more truly evoked the spirit of the New Year.
Fang Pingying was frying meatballs in the kitchen with Li Yuchun, glancing out of the corner of her eye at Luo Dashan, who was sitting in the living room, appearing somewhat absent-minded, as though lost in thought.
