Chapter 1046: Chapter 1051: Extremely Lucky
With this jade pendant, ordinary people would think twice before messing with the Green Group, since the name of Red Cloud Villa resonated throughout the entire Daxing Dynasty!
Before Qiao Duo’er could speak, Lu Kejun said, "This is for the child, you mustn’t refuse."
Green Group and Tangyuan were twins; she had to treat them equally.
So she pulled off the jade plaque at her waist.
In comparison, Tangyuan’s pendant was better, but Tangyuan was better at cheering her up.
"Then I’ll thank you on their behalf," Qiao Duo’er expressed her gratitude.
The gift was valuable, and by rights, she shouldn’t accept it, but to refuse on New Year’s Day would definitely not be appropriate.
Oh well, friends should reciprocate gifts, and they would have plenty of time in the future to return the favor.
Green Group started to stuff the jade pendant into his mouth, and Qiao Duo’er quickly intervened.
"Silly boy, not everything is edible!"
Green Group protested when his object was taken away, but this time his protest was futile.
Qiao Duo’er rarely restricted the child’s actions because children grow by exploring the world, but she had one principle: never let the child be in danger. 𝔫𝖔𝔳𝖕𝖚𝔟.𝔠𝔬𝖒
Lu Kejun playfully teased him, "If you smile for me, I’ll find something else for you to play with."
Green Group didn’t agree because he could find something fun on his own, like the little pompoms on Lu Kejun’s clothes.
Lu Kejun quickly handed Green Group over to Qiao Duo’er; she might as well hold Tangyuan.
This Green Group was simply a little devil!
After watching the two little ones play for a while, the hall had been set with tables.
"Fourth Master, Madam, Miss Lu, time to eat!"
Breakfast consisted of Tangyuan, sesame balls, and a few delicate pastries, which were tempting to the eyes.
The breakfast on the first day of New Year was mainly sweet, as this meal marked the beginning of the year, and every household paid great attention to it.
They also ate more sweets, so that life throughout the year would be sweet and joyful.
Tan Zhenghong, who didn’t like sweets, had no strength to complain about these customs, but he knew it was just to seek a good start; thankfully, it was only this one meal, or he would go crazy.
After breakfast, people started going out to wish others a happy new year.
Wherever one went that day, one could hear auspicious words, and the atmosphere was fully festive.
Lu Kejun stayed at home all day, lacking interest in visiting others, simply hoping a certain someone would show up soon.
Now, her biggest goal in life was to win over Luo Qingfeng.
Seeing Lu Kejun bored all afternoon, Qiao Duo’er called over the big girl and Yang Ruoruo, and they started playing cards.
Lu Kejun, who was very clever, understood the rules after playing a couple of hands and soon got the hang of it.
Before long, Lu Kejun slapped the cards on the table: "Bomb!"
This was the most powerful weapon in card games; no one could match her.
"Ke-kun, having both jokers with you, you’re so lucky!" Yang Ruoruo said enviously.
The four of them playing together to collect the two jokers was not something just anyone could achieve.
Lu Kejun modestly replied, "Just luck, but this is so fun. I’ll definitely teach my family to play this when I get back!"
The big girl nodded, "That’s necessary. When my family has nothing to do, we gather to play a few rounds. It’s both a way to pass the time and to bond."
"However, this should just be a casual pastime; don’t get addicted," Qiao Duo’er warned.
Even the best things should be enjoyed in moderation;
if played too heavily, it’s not entertainment, it’s gambling.
After a few more rounds, a young man hurriedly rushed in.
