The first day of the Lunar New Year passed pleasantly at the Sun Family's.
In the evening, Cao Qiu, Sun Zhuzi, Sun Jiasheng, and Wei Hong took Sun Ting home.
Lin Shan, Chen Fengjiao, Lin Sui'er, and Lin Zheng also went home.
The second day of the New Year is traditionally for visiting one's maternal uncle.
Now that Gu'er and Sun Jiaming were married, they didn't have to follow that custom. Besides, Gu'er had no desire to visit Cao Qiu's relatives. As for her mother Chen Fengjiao's family home, not only was it far away, but Gu'er wouldn't have gone even if it were nearby.
Lin Shuying took her two children to the Lin Family's.
Gu'er had wanted to go at first. Her father, Lin Shan, was only going to be home for eight days, and she wanted to spend more time with him. But light snow began to fall that morning, and for some reason, she felt lazy and lost all desire to go out.
