Yu Bing thought of the three-centimeter scar on Xiao Li’s forehead when she helped her comb her hair.

Yu Bing understood Xiao Sheng’s actions, so she slowly said, “In the past, she was still young and didn’t have the ability to protect herself. It’s normal for you to be worried about her and not let her out. But now that Xiao Li has slowly grown up, she has to come into contact with society. Take things slow.”

Xiao Sheng nodded and then mentioned in embarrassment, “I want to ask you for a favor.”

Yu Bing looked over in confusion. “Tell me.”

Xiao Sheng said carefully, “You have a high education level. I want to ask you to come to my house to tutor my sister when you’re free. She can’t see, so the schools won’t accept her. I can only teach her some elementary school literature and poems. I don’t know how to teach her the rest.”

When Xiao Sheng heard Yu Bing’s words tonight, he felt that if Xiao Li could learn from Yu Bing, her level of knowledge and horizons would definitely be impressive in the future. Therefore, after hesitating for the entire night, he still made this presumptuous request.

Yu Bing liked Xiao Li very much, so she agreed. “No problem. I might not be able to go to your house every day, but I’ll go over when I’m free!”

Xiao Sheng’s smile widened. “Yu Bing! Thank you so much!”

Yu Bing smiled and said, “You’re welcome. I like Xiao Li very much and am willing to teach her.”

As soon as she finished speaking, firecrackers sounded outside. This meant that it was already past midnight and the new year had arrived. Every family in the village went out to light the firecrackers.

Lighting firecrackers meant exorcism and eliminating calamity. It also meant that the old would be eliminated and the new would be welcomed. It represented people’s expectations for a good life in the new year.

Every year, at this time, the festive atmosphere unique to the Spring Festival became even stronger.

Xiao Sheng looked at the light emitted by the firecrackers in the village and turned to look at Yu Bing. “Happy New Year!”

Yu Bing looked at Xiao Sheng with a smile. “Happy New Year!” She didn’t expect her first New Year after her rebirth to be spent with Xiao Sheng.

Feng Cai, who had returned to City H, was also very busy. He returned home at about noon in December.

The Feng family lived in a building of a mechanical factory. The house was 50 square meters with two rooms and a hall, but Feng Cai’s family of eight lived in it.

Feng Cai hadn’t been home for the new year for two years. He felt mixed emotions as he looked at the familiar door in front of him and raised his hand to knock.

The person who opened the door was Grandma Feng. At 70 years old, she was still quite healthy. Her white hair was combed back neatly.

“Grandma!” Feng Cai shouted happily.

When Grandma Feng saw Feng Cai, she wiped her tears excitedly. “You’re back! Hurry up and let me take a look.”

She held Feng Cai’s hand at the door and kept looking up and down. Then, she said in a choked voice sadly, “You’ve lost weight again!”

When Feng Cai’s sister-in-law heard the voice, she put down the spatula in her hand and walked out. “Fourth Brother is back! Grandma, let Fourth Brother in first. It’s cold outside. Let’s go back to the house to talk.”

Feng Cai quickly greeted his sister-in-law.

Only then did Grandma Feng come back to her senses and pull Feng Cai into the house.

When Feng Cai reached home, he realized that only Grandma Feng, his younger brother, and his sister-in-law were at home.

As soon as they entered the house, Feng Cai’s sister-in-law asked her son, Feng An, to call for them.

Feng An shouted in a childish voice, “Fourth Uncle.”

After Feng Cai agreed happily, he gently pinched Feng An’s little face.

Because the school was on break during the new year, when the kid at home saw his fourth brother, Feng Cai, he casually greeted him, then ignored him.

Feng Cai couldn’t be bothered. He only looked around the house carefully. He hadn’t been back for a few years, but the house hadn’t changed much.

There was a bed on both sides of the window. His eldest brother’s family of three lived on one side, and his two sisters lived on the other side. There was a cloth curtain around the bed, so there were two rooms.

As for the two bedrooms at home, one was where Grandma Feng lived, and the other was where Mr. and Mrs. Feng lived. Feng Xian slept in a small bed in his parents’ room.

As he only came back once every few years, he temporarily squeezed into the lower bunk of the shelf bed that the three of them slept in. His sister-in-law and his nephew slept on the upper bunk.

When Feng Cai saw this, he felt a little baffled. Why was this bed still here after his two sisters got married? He looked at his sister-in-law and asked curiously, “Sister-in-law, why is this bed still here?”
