The next morning, the snow stopped, and the sun came out, shining on the silver-coated earth and the white city, bringing a touch of warmth in the air. Luo Zheng's family got up early to prepare breakfast. Lan Xue did not come over for the New Year; she stayed home to be with her own family. Luo Zheng felt a bit regretful but also understood. It's not easy to have time at home during the New Year, so spending time with the elders is more important. He got busy in the kitchen.
The most important meal on New Year's Eve is dinner; breakfast and lunch are less prioritized. Everyone casually cooked some noodles and ate them, then continued to prepare for dinner, with one cutting, one washing, and the other tidying up tables and chairs. The family was harmonious and happy. Luo Zheng enjoyed this atmosphere, realizing it had been years since he last spent the New Year at home with family.
