Chapter 407: Chapter 294 The Same New Year in Both Worlds_3

The man spoke thus, and the father, squatting down, hugged his head, remembering how just two to three years ago, his family was all around him, and now he was left all alone.

As the Chinese man thought of this, he did not pity the father, even though the father doted on his biological daughter, it was a pity he had not seen the person’s true nature, thus letting him and his beloved be parted by life and death.

The Chinese man looked up at the sky, it was now the first day of the New Year, and everywhere was bustling; he had returned to his home country for this occasion as well.

Having acquired the Tang Family’s company, this was his foothold here, and also a convenient way for him to stay in this country to watch over the woman who had died, so he could visit her grave every year and talk to her.

The man’s grief-stricken expression betrayed no knowledge that the woman he missed had already crossed over to another dimension and was doing quite well.

Ye Shiqi, who had crossed over, naturally would not know this either.

To this Chinese man, she was just one of his good buddies, not a girlfriend.

He never believed, until his dying day, that someone could love her so dearly!

"How beautiful!"

Their family set off so many fireworks, attracting the entire village to watch, though of course, some people wouldn’t come to their house; they could see the fireworks flying high into the sky right from their doorsteps.

The sky was resplendently lit, visible even from the neighboring village.

In Bushen Village, the daughters of all five rich families had invited the five Ye sisters to watch the lion dance.

Ye Zhiwei’s family’s daughters and nieces had had a conflict with the five Ye sisters, and they had heard about it too; they thought it would be better if they fought, as it would be a good show to watch.

In fact, the other rich families’ daughters didn’t care much for the Big Pancake Face sisters; they had no sympathy even when their friends, these two sisters, were insulted by others.

They seemed like allies and good friends, but in truth, each had their own agenda, maintaining just superficial interests.

Later on, when the five Ye sisters stopped coming to their house, these people didn’t invite them anymore.

They figured that with the two families absent, the feud might end more quickly; why should they get involved? It was better to just wait and enjoy the drama!

Last night, the Ye family set off so many fireworks that these rich families’ kids also didn’t want to be outdone and followed suit. Those who didn’t buy many fireworks immediately sent people by bullock cart or horse to purchase more.

No one expected the Ye family to put on such a big show today; some were unprepared, their few fireworks not thrilling enough, and so they had people rush to town to buy more at once.

Now it was nighttime, Ye Shuzhi, holding her daughter and accompanied by her husband, was preparing to close the shop door, planning to return to the other shop’s home to sleep.

Then she heard her father-in-law run over and tell them not to shut the store yet, as the fireworks sold there had sold out.

Ye Shuzhi was somewhat surprised. The fireworks they stocked usually wouldn’t sell out until the fifteenth of the month.

Of course, her store had opened last year, and her husband had told her about the previous situations.

The stock for this year was similar to previous years, yet she hadn’t expected that last night they would sell out entirely the fireworks meant to sell until the fifteenth.

Today, she still watched over the store early, and on the first day of the New Year, her husband and father-in-law also went to stock up, bringing back a whole bullock cart of fireworks.

Thinking they could sell them until the fifteenth, they watched the shop at ease these past days; she was supposed to visit her parent’s home tomorrow.

Seeing how things were going, the fireworks they stocked just this morning might all sell out.

There were others in town who sold fireworks, but their two shops sold the best, earning a tidy profit from fireworks this year.

"Shuzhi, you take the baby and go back to sleep first; I’ll watch the shop here," her husband said.

Ye Shuzhi nodded obediently; there weren’t many fireworks left in the shop, and her husband might not have to watch over it for much longer.

When she returned to their other shop’s residence, carrying her daughter wrapped in the little cotton blanket her sister-in-law had sent,

She saw her father-in-law calculating with a beaming smile, and her mother-in-law cleaning the shop.

"Shuzhi, there aren’t many fireworks left in the other store, are there?" the father-in-law asked.

"Mmm, just now two groups came to buy; they bought by the box. There aren’t many fireworks left in the other store," she replied, pausing on her way to answer her father-in-law. Seeing his expression, she could almost imagine how much they had made from selling fireworks these past few days.

"Hahaha, very good, very good. Tomorrow, you and your daughter will watch the shop again. As for visiting your parent’s home, we can go after buying back more fireworks!" he said.

Faced with her father-in-law’s joyful expression, could Ye Shuzhi say no?

For people like them who were in business, the regular trades were a bit leisurely; it was only during the festivals that they got busy.

And being busy was good. They didn’t have to worry about not making enough money for food!

"Shuzhi, today your parent’s family also bought quite a few fireworks. I’ve heard from people at the other shops; their masters decided to buy fireworks because your parent’s family did, and that spurred them to join in too!" her mother-in-law said with a smile.

Ye Shuzhi’s mind quickly grasped something; the wealthy loved to compete. Maybe they saw her family, who had just started to prosper, spending so heavily, so in their vanity, others did the same.
