Chapter 39: Inviting You into the Urn

The fifth day of the New Year arrived.

From afar and near, the sounds of firecrackers rose and fell in succession.

The fifth day is also known as "Breaking the Fifth," signifying "sending off the New Year." After this day, the New Year was essentially considered over, and everything would return to its normal state.

Businesses opened, and some workplaces resumed work.

Qin Yize had not returned home all night, and the Qin family was somewhat displeased early in the morning. Nevertheless, firecrackers had to be set off, and dumplings had to be eaten.

Moreover, Gu Qiaoqiao's dumpling fillings were so deliciously fresh and aromatic that, along with the dipping sauce, they almost made one want to swallow their tongue.

Qin Xuan had heard from his wife last night about Gu Qiaoqiao wanting a divorce, but he didn't take it to heart.

Though slightly displeased, he didn't show it. They were leaving in a few days anyway, so why stir up unpleasantness?
