The period around this year's Spring Festival was exceptionally lively. With Huang Xiaochuan's help, Yu Wei bought a house in Shanghai. It was an old villa of over 300 square meters. The only problem was that the yard was a bit small. The house was well-preserved and ready to move in. The house cost Yu Wei 1.22 million yuan, one-third of which was due to inflation and currency devaluation.

However, Huang Xiaochuan temporarily advanced the money for him, and Ding Yi will repay Huang Xiaochuan after he helps Ding Yi transfer the money out of the stock market.

With this house, Lao Yu and Zheng Aiying will have a place to stay when they come to Shanghai. Of course, Huang Xiaochuan will also have plenty of places to accommodate them.

So as soon as winter vacation started, Yu Wei and Tang Yuan began their shopping spree. Like little ants moving house, they gradually filled up the house with all the necessary items. However, they only bought small household items. Larger items, such as furniture and appliances, were all delivered by Huang Xiaochuan, saving them a lot of trouble.

When Huang Xiaochuan returned home in the afternoon, he played with the big and small sticks in the yard for a while until Yu Xiang called him and he went inside.

After greeting his grandmother and aunt who were watching TV in the living room, Huang Xiaochuan returned to his room on the third floor.

Upon seeing Yu Xiang, he asked, "What's wrong?"

"Yu Weigang called me and told us to go to his house as soon as possible."

This was something that had been arranged long ago. Today was the day Yu Wei and Tang Yuan were moving, and they had agreed to have dinner at Yu Wei's new house tonight. However, it was only 3 p.m., and Yu Wei was already urging Yu Xiang and Huang Xiaochuan to come to his house. He definitely didn't have any good intentions.

"Dr. Yu, how about we make a bet?"

"Alright, you think you're the only one who figured it out? You think I don't know that Yu Wei wants you and me to help him cook? He's my brother, how could I not know him?" Yu Xiang certainly knew what Yu Wei was thinking.

Huang Xiaochuan hugged Yu Xiang from behind and kissed her on the neck.

"It's because we're family that we both think alike."

Yu Xiang let Huang Xiaochuan hold her waist, but her hands were not idle either; she was tidying up the clothes she had just brought back from the yard.

After folding the clothes, Yu Xiang affectionately patted Huang Xiaochuan's face gently.

"I'll cook with Tangyuan later, you just need to eat tonight!"

"Wouldn't it be easier to just buy some groceries from a restaurant and take them home?"

"It's cold, and the food will be cold by the time it gets home. It won't taste good if we reheat it. Cooking a few dishes won't tire me out." Yu Xiang knew that Huang Xiaochuan was reluctant to let her do the cooking.

"Then don't bother, I'll do it! I'm quick and efficient, a few dishes will be done in no time."

Huang Xiaochuan knew that Yu Wei's house did not have 24-hour heating, so there was no hot water. In this weather, the water coming out of the tap was icy cold, and his hands would freeze and hurt after washing things for a short while. How could he bear to let Yu Xiang do this? He would do it himself!

Before Yu Xiang could object, Huang Xiaochuan pointed to the handbag he had placed on Yu Xiang's dressing table.

"A friend gave it to me. See if you like it."

"What?"

Jewelry from Chow Sang Sang in Hong Kong.

Yu Xiang opened it, looked at it, and then put it away.

"dislike?"

"No, it's just that it's inconvenient to wear it normally."

Huang Xiaochuan knew that Yu Xiang was telling the truth. As a medical student, she wore a white coat every day, so it was inappropriate for her to wear gold and silver jewelry. Besides, Yu Xiang herself wasn't very interested in these kinds of jewelry.

When Huang Xiaochuan arrived at Yu Wei's house, he rang the doorbell, and Yu Wei answered the door.

He stared at Huang Xiaochuan and Yu Xiang's hands, and joked, "You two came empty-handed? Didn't you bring any gifts or anything?"

Huang Xiaochuan pushed the door open and let Yu Xiang enter the house first.

"When are you going to change this habit? You used to do the same thing in your rented apartment, saying you were treating people but then making them cook for you, and you even had the nerve to ask me for gifts? I'll have all these appliances moved out of the house soon."

"That's boring, it was just a joke."

Yu Xiang asked, "Where's Tang Yuan?"

"They're busy in the kitchen. I told them to wait for you guys to come and do it, but they wouldn't listen to me. I couldn't stop them."

Upon hearing this, Yu Xiang glared fiercely at Yu Wei, then prepared to go to the kitchen to help.

At this moment, Tang Yuan heard the commotion outside and came out of the kitchen. He greeted Huang Xiaochuan and Yu Xiang warmly.

"Big sister, big brother-in-law, you're here?"

The four of them had only been chatting for a short while when the doorbell rang.

Yu Wei laughed and said, "It must be Old Ding who's here."

Before he even entered the room, Huang Xiaochuan heard Ding Yi's loud voice.

This guy is really something else; he just spent money to hire several chefs from a restaurant to cook for Yu Wei, which made Yu Wei extremely happy.

Qi Huan was also brought by Ding Yi. With the chef, no one had to do anything. The women gathered together to chat, while Yu Wei led the chef to the kitchen.

"Tch!" Huang Xiaochuan gave Ding Yi the middle finger with a disdainful look.

Seeing that Huang Xiaochuan wasn't responding, Ding immediately raised his voice: "Hey, what's up? We have a beautiful female teacher at our school."

Damn it, Huang Xiaochuan was so angry that his teeth were grinding, but he didn't dare to retaliate.

Forcing a smile, she said in a low, conciliatory voice, "Thank you, okay?"

Ding Yi lowered his voice and made a condition: "How can I express my gratitude with just empty words? Send me a few more sets of the latest Baijiali clothes."

Huang Xiaochuan muttered angrily, "Aren't you done taking advantage of me? Can your Qi Huan even wear all of these?"

"It's for my sister. I'll write down the size for you later. I'll leave this to you."

Upon hearing that Ding Yi intended to give it to his sister, Huang Xiaochuan agreed.

However, he stubbornly insisted, "That was a gift I gave to my sister, it has nothing to do with you."

Once Ding Yi had achieved his goal, he didn't care what Huang Xiaochuan said anymore.

At this moment, Yu Wei came out of the kitchen, and Ding Yi said to him, "I helped you clear out all your stocks this afternoon, and the money will be transferred from your stock account to your bank account tomorrow."

Because Yu Wei bought a house, the entire Yu family came to Shanghai for the Chinese New Year this year, along with Lao Huang and his wife, so both families gathered in Shanghai to celebrate the New Year together.

Not only will Mr. and Mrs. Huang spend the Lunar New Year in Shanghai, but they will also attend two weddings. This is because their nieces Zeng Hong and Zeng Xia will be getting married in the first month of the lunar calendar. They will attend the wedding banquet in Suzhou and then return to Shanghai. After a while, they will return to Suzhou to attend Zeng Xia's wedding. These twin sisters are quite interesting; they chose such close dates for their weddings. If it weren't for the fact that their parents and relatives couldn't be in two places at once, the two sisters might have arranged their weddings on the same day.
