Chapter 262 Chinese New Year
Chapter 262 Chinese New Year
On the last day of the year—Lunar New Year's Eve—the entire tribe was immersed in a flurry of activity.
This is the busiest time of the year!
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, Ruan Mianmian has been in this wonderful world for almost half a year.
After a period of adaptation and integration, she has long been accustomed to life in the tribe.
Before dawn, when the first rays of sunlight had just fallen on the land, Ruan Mianmian got up early to prepare for the New Year!
She carried out a large pile of items from her tent, including the character "福" (fortune), exquisite pendants, and many other items, a dazzling array that was hard to look away from.
After all, the Spring Festival should have the lively atmosphere it deserves!
When the little ones saw that their leader had brought out so many novel and interesting gadgets, they flocked around like bees attracted to nectar, circling around curiously.
In the hearts of these innocent little beastmen, their leader seemed to possess endless abilities. As long as the leader was by their side, there would surely be fun games and delicious food waiting for them to explore and taste.
At this moment, Yu and Kun were working together to hang the ornaments high above; while on the other side, Sen and Yu were focused on arranging the ornaments below.
At the same time, each female member held a bright and eye-catching "Fu" character tightly in her hand, following Ruan Mianmian as she walked slowly forward.
Ruan Mianmian steadily carried a basin of paste that emitted a faint fragrance in both hands, walking at the front of the line and carefully selecting the best location to paste the "Fu" character.
As for those strong and powerful males, they bear a heavy responsibility today!
They were responsible for cleaning the vast area outside the cave entrance.
With a command from the leader, it was announced: "Tonight we will hold an unprecedentedly grand and spectacular fireworks display! Everyone, you'd better work hard and clear out a spacious area so that everyone can fully enjoy this joyous feast!"
So, these males eagerly and enthusiastically threw themselves into their work.
Some of them were carrying huge brooms, sweeping away the snow and dust on the ground; others were carrying heavy stones on their shoulders, moving them to a distance to make room for more people.
Some people even climbed high up on the branches and carefully trimmed away the excess leaves... Everyone was busy and having a great time.
After a whole day of hard work, by noon, all the work was finally almost done!
Now, both the inside and outside of the cave have been completely transformed.
The ground outside the cave, which was originally covered in dust and debris, has become clean and tidy, and the surrounding trees have been trimmed neatly, as if the whole world is bathed in freshness.
The most eye-catching feature is undoubtedly the bright red cave.
From a distance, it looks like a dazzling gem embedded in the earth, radiating a brilliant light.
Everyone gathered together, gazing at the joyous scene before them, their hearts filled with happiness and excitement.
"Wow, the New Year is so great!" a young orc exclaimed excitedly.
“Yes, yes, I love the New Year so much!” another orc chimed in.
"Look at this lively scene! Only the Beast God can live such a wonderful life!" an elderly orc exclaimed with deep emotion.
At noon, everyone ate some of yesterday's steamed buns, since the leader said there would be a "big meal" that night, and they planned to eat a lot on an empty stomach.
Time slipped by unnoticed, and before we knew it, it was afternoon.
The peaceful atmosphere was instantly disrupted as everyone busied themselves preparing items for the evening.
This is my first New Year since arriving in this wonderful world!
This is of great significance to Ruan Mianmian.
So she decided to treat herself and her friends to a special treat, to make this New Year extravagant and unforgettable.
At this moment, Ruan Mianmian was sitting leisurely on the soft, thick carpet in the center of the cave, surrounded by all sorts of bags and packages.
She smiled slightly and then began to take things out of the bags.
The first thing that catches the eye is the beautifully packaged bags of candies and chocolates, their colorful wrappers shimmering enticingly in the sunlight.
Of course, how could we forget the classic White Rabbit Creamy Candy? That familiar milky aroma seems to have already filled the air.
Besides these sweet temptations, there are also all kinds of petite cakes and exquisite desserts.
They have either adorable shapes or exude a captivating fragrance, making them so tempting that you can't even count them all.
In addition, there are some unusual drinks that I've never seen before, with bottles of various shapes and colors.
Surprisingly, there was also a bottle of baijiu (Chinese liquor) hidden inside. The transparent liquid swayed slightly in the bottle, as if waiting for someone destined to taste its mellow flavor.
Looking down at the ground, there was a dazzling array of sunflower seeds of various flavors, crispy peanuts, and other dried goods, covering the entire floor.
The piles of fresh fruit were even more eye-catching: bright red apples, golden pears, golden oranges, pink peaches... there was everything. Ruan Mianmian bought almost every kind of fruit that could be found in the market, without giving it much thought.
In an instant, the entire cave fell silent, and everyone's eyes were focused on these items, filled with curiosity and anticipation.
