Master Zhan, your daughter has gone out to catch ghosts again.

Chapter 272 New Year's Trip

Wen Zhenyuan had a case to attend to, so it was already late when he arrived at the Zhan family manor, but everyone was waiting for him to start the New Year's Eve dinner together.

Inside the restaurant, a huge round table was laden with hundreds of delicious dishes, including delicacies from land and sea. Most of them were prepared by chefs who came to the restaurant, while a few dishes were made by Qin Yimo and Zhan Weiguo, a married couple.

Zhan Guiting brought over a high chair, but Youyou raised her hand in refusal, "Daddy, I don't want to sit in the high chair anymore. In the new year, I've grown into a big baby, not a little one anymore. The high chair is no longer suitable for me."

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha……"

The group burst into laughter at the adorable yet precocious little guy.

"So you're going to sit on the ground to eat?" Zhan Chiyan teased her deliberately.

"Stain"

Everyone glanced at Zhan Chiyan.

If you don't speak, no one will think you're mute.

Zhan Chiyan pursed his lips and became obedient.

"I want to sit on a chair, an adult's chair," Yoyo cried.

"Okay, sit down."

Zhan Guiting picked up the little guy and placed him on the chair next to him.

The uncles couldn't sit still any longer and tried every means to get Youyou to sit next to them, but Youyou refused and insisted on sticking to Zhan Guiting.

Zhan Guiting's smug smile was impossible to suppress; his smug expression made even the uncles want to make a sarcastic remark.

As the New Year's Eve dinner was drawing to a close, Zhan Guiting's phone suddenly rang.

It was a video call from Wen Zijin.

Zhan Guiting projected his phone screen directly onto the large screen on the wall and pressed the answer button.

Everyone watching Wen Zijin on the big screen expressed their longing.

Looking at the lively scene of the whole family gathered together, Wen Zijin almost burst into tears.

"Mother……"

Yoyo and the triplets shouted at Wen Zijin on the screen.

"Baby." Wen Zijin covered her mouth, suppressing the soreness in her throat to prevent her tears from bursting out.

Even though it's through a screen, it's still a way for the whole family to get together.

We chatted like that across the screen for over an hour.

"Zijin, it's time to eat. Don't keep everyone waiting for you."

Suddenly, a middle-aged man's voice rang out from Wen Zijin's side, interrupting their conversation. Although the voice was soft, it was clear that it belonged to Wen Zijin's father.

Wen Zijin quickly blocked the camera and hung up the phone a second later.

……

After the New Year's Eve dinner, it was time for YoYo and the triplets to receive gifts and lucky money.

Yoyo triplets, uncles, aunt, and maternal uncle were having a blast together. Four generations under one roof, filled with laughter and joy, a true embodiment of family happiness.

After the initial excitement subsided, everyone sat in the living room, some playing with the children, some chatting, and others sending blessings to relatives and friends—it was quite a lively scene.

"Oh, my darling, tomorrow is the first day of the Lunar New Year. Some of us will be going out to visit relatives and friends, while a few of us will be staying home to receive the guests. Do you want to stay home to receive the guests, or go visiting relatives and friends?" Qin Yimo hugged Youyou in her arms, bent down to touch her face with hers, and asked gently.

"Going out to pay New Year's visits."

“Okay, then let’s go with Dad.” Zhan Guiting took Youyou from Qin Yimo’s arms.

"After we finish paying our New Year's visits, we'll go on a trip together. Yoyo, where do you want to go?" Zhan Weiguo asked.

This has been the case every year. After visiting relatives and friends on the first day of the Lunar New Year, the whole family goes on a trip.

For them, the Zhan family can only gather together for two or three days during the New Year. They are all very busy during the rest of the year and rarely have time to meet. So, every year during the two or three days of the New Year holiday, the whole family will go on a trip together and occasionally invite some relatives and friends to join them. It's lively and fun.

"I want to go to the countryside," Yoyo said after thinking for a moment.

"Rural area?"

Everyone was surprised that this little guy would want to go to the countryside to play.

"Why do you want to go to the countryside, Yoyo?" Zhan Jinxi asked, looking at Yoyo with doting eyes.

"Because there are many things in the countryside that I have never seen before, I want to go and broaden my horizons."

"Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha..." Yoyo's words made the whole family laugh so hard they were doubled over.

"Okay, let's go to the countryside then," Zhan Weiguo said with a smile.

If Yoyo wants to go, then let her go, no questions asked, her wish must be granted.
