Chapter 269 - New Year's Eve Announcement[1]
Wiping the betel nut juice off the corner of his mouth, Chen Yu crouched down while holding onto his aching abdomen. "W-What have you been eating? Can't you act normally?"
"I want to play with Big Brother," Chen Sanke said, blinking her eyes. "Let's play a game only the two of us can play."
Hearing this, Chen Yu subconsciously stepped back. "W-What do you want to play?"
Turning around to look at the living room, Chen Sanke quickly walked into the bedroom and shut the door. She then reached into her shirt and...pulled out a cylindrical object. "This!"
"Corn?"
"No. Mommy said it's a maize."
"They're the same thing." Grabbing the ear of corn, Chen Yu fiddled around with it before asking, "What can we even do with it?"
"Guess how many kernels are on the maize!"
"...How bored are you?"
TL Notes:
[1]New Year's Eve: The New Year's Eve referred to here isn't December 31st, but the day before Chinese New Year (aka, the Spring Festival). The "New Year" referred to in previous chapters is also referring to "Chinese New Year" instead of the New Year on January 1st.
[2]purple underwear: In the northeastern parts of China, parents and students believe in a superstition mentioning that wearing purple underwear allows them to accomplish anything.
