Although Zhou Ping had said these things, by the twenty-ninth of the Lunar New Year, he still hadn’t seen the little girl even once, nor had his mother mentioned that the little girl had sought her out. The little girl was still silently bearing the sorrow of losing her mother, not wanting to disturb or trouble others, which made the Zhou family members even more sympathetic, feeling how sensible this child was.
On New Year’s Eve, Zhou Ping finally returned.
Zhou Ping’s two sisters also came back, and Zhou Ping’s father had returned several days earlier, helping the maid with the New Year’s Eve dinner. The two Ms. Zhou, Mr. Zhou, and Mrs. Zhou were playing cards with little girl Mo Yaoyao, all seated on the living room carpet, in a circle.
The little girl didn’t know how to play and kept losing. Even though Mr. Zhou, Mrs. Zhou, and Ms. Zhou wanted to let her win, they couldn’t manage to let her win. The little girl had no talent in this area.
The moment Zhou Ping walked in, he saw the little girl about to lose again and scratching her head. He immediately walked over with a smile, sat next to the little girl, and took her cards to play for her, “You guys just keep picking on Yaoyao, look at the piles of money in front of you all.”
The little girl felt even more embarrassed, her face flushed, “It’s, it’s just that I can’t seem to get it myself, it’s not Mr. Zhou, Mrs. Zhou, and my sisters picking on me…”
“Alright, Yaoyao,” Eldest Ms. Zhou laughed, “don’t explain. Didn’t you see he’s just teasing? Alright, alright, alright, you play, you team up with Yaoyao. If you win, it’s Yaoyao’s victory; if you lose, it’s on you?”
“Sure!” Zhou Ping agreed cheerfully.
However, the little girl suddenly panicked, shaking her head vigorously, “No, no…” feeling it was unfair to her brother.
Unknown to her, Zhou Ping whispered to her with a smile, “It’s okay, I’ve never lost at this. Just focus on counting the money I win for you, consider it as your New Year’s money for tonight.”
“That’s all the New Year’s money you’re giving?” Mrs. Zhou laughed after hearing this and gave him a playful look.
Zhou Ping said with a smile, “Mom, that’s not right. If I’m going to give Yaoyao New Year’s money today, I’ll definitely win more and not let you guys win anymore.”
“Oh come on,” Second Ms. Zhou laughed and teased, “When have you ever let us win? Come on, come on, Dad, Mom, sister, today we really need to take down this bratty kid and show him that it’s always been us who let him win.”
“Right, right, right,” Mr. Zhou laughed heartily.
And then the game really began.
It must be said, although Zhou Ping didn’t win every round, he indeed won the most. True to his word, he used the winnings as the little girl’s New Year’s money, stuffing it to her even if she refused.
During the New Year’s Eve dinner, Mrs. Zhou and the others also gave the little girl New Year’s money, not caring whether she accepted it or not, always forcefully insisting because she was the youngest in the family, which was a long-standing tradition—every year, the youngest must receive New Year’s money from the other family members.
The main activity during the New Year was visiting relatives, and during these visits, Zhou Ping indeed took the little girl out to have a good time.
But basically, it was the whole family together, very lively.
Although Zhou Ping and the rest knew that the little girl was still grieving privately over the loss of her mother, during the lively moments, they felt that at least the little girl wasn’t alone.
Zhou Ping knew that the little girl had her final exams, but he had never asked about her scores, even when, on the twelfth day of the first month after the New Year, he returned to S City, he didn’t ask about her results.
After the New Year, as the little girl had to go back to school, she still didn’t initiate contact with anyone, afraid of bothering anyone, living even more quietly.
