Arlo Marsh shrugged helplessly, “My parents have a date with my big brother’s parents to poke mahjong, so there’s no need for us to apany them.”


    “Yes, in order to be able to y mahjong earlier, our two families spent the New Year at noon.” Danny said.


    A bitter smile shed across Dixon’s face, “Well, so did my parents, they took Larissa to The Larissa family to y mahjong.”


    Morris got up and waved at the maids, gesturing for them to add chairs and dishes, “Come over here without a squeak.”


    “What’s the matter, this table of food, not enough to eat?” Danny teased.


    Ament made everyoneugh.


    The maid added seats and dishes, and everyone was seated, and the dining room was just right for sitting and not crowded.


    “All right, let’s get our chopsticks going, the food will get coldter and it won’t taste good.” Madame Cheal said cheerfully.


    Margarita Jones interrupted with a wave of her hand, “That won’t do. It’s New Year’s Day, you have to say a New Year’s greeting, or you won’t be allowed to eat.”


    Ethan: “Good idea.”


    Danny: “You’re the one with the bad ideas.”


    Arlo Marsh: “I think it’s a good idea.”


    Trent Stone: “Let’s do it for the young people, but not for the aunts and uncles and the olddy.”


    Margarita Jones stood up, “Since I started it, I’ll go first.” She raised her hand to ruffle her long hair and cleared her throat, “Farewell to the old year and wee the new year, wishing everyone a prosperous, wealthy, sessful, healthy and joyful year ahead …”


    “Stop, stop, stop!” Danny hastily waved his hand to interrupt her, “The words are all for you guys to say, are you not going to let us eat is it.”


    At once, the restaurant erupted into another burst of joyfulughter.


    Margarita Jones nced at her, “I obviously want to give my best wishes to everyone. You’re overthinking it.”


    “Tsk.” Danny smacked his lips and brushed his sses, “You’ve not been in L City long, but your Mandarin is getting better and better.”N?velDrama.Org exclusive content.


    Madame Cheal saw the two of them tussling with each other, couldn’t help but say, “Danny, it’s not good for you to bully other girls all day long, she …”


    “Pfft …”


    Halfway through her sentence, Arlo Marsh snorted out augh, and several other people also held back theirughter.


    Seeing them allughing, Madame Cheal could not even understand and asked, “What’s wrong?”


    Dixonughed and said, “Grandma, do you still don’t know about big brother being beaten into the hospital by Margarita Jones?”


    “Eww, there’s that?” Madame Cheal frowned tightly with a look of disbelief.


    “Hahahaha …”


    “I testify, really.”


    “Yes, yes, yes, I know that too.”


    “Well, it’s true.”


    “Hahahahaha …”


    The restaurant was full of joy.


    The atmosphere of the New Year lingered, everyone was immersed in joy and happiness, and everyone showed their smiling faces.


    It seemed that when everyone gathered together, all those unhappy, sad and gloomy emotions were also washed away and even forgotten.


    Madame Cheal specially asked Belle to prepare red envelopes, and after everyone finished their New Year’s congrattions, she gave everyone a red envelope, and gave Vivian two extra red envelopes, saying that they were for Yilia and Yves, the two little ones.


    Of course, Mandy’s children also got an extra red packet.


    After the meal, the group walked to the courtyard where Morris prepared fireworks and they stood or sat to enjoy a fireworks show in the courtyard.


    By the time the fireworks were finished it was 10:00 pm.


    Madame Cheal and Tamsin Mond, who were both used to going to bed early and were old enough to go to bed, went to bed early.


    Other people gathered to y mahjong or bullfighting and had a good time.


    Late at night, at twelve o’clock, the New Year’s Eve began again.


    The yard firecrackers, crackling sound actually makes people feel less noisy, everywhere filled with the smell of fireworks, but a wonderful enjoyment.
