Translation by fingers_and_paws

At night, YangMeng was just sitting on the sofa pondering over what New Year goods to buy when the doorbell rang.

He opened the door and saw BaiLuoYin and GuHai standing outside with a few boxes on the ground.

"It's so late already, why have the two of you come?" YangMeng was puzzled.

BaiLuoYin said while moving the boxes in, "The army gave out quite a lot of stuff and both of us had also received lots of gifts. There's so much stuff that we can't finish eating all of them. I've picked out some good stuff and brought them over for you. GuHai, put this box of big prawns into the fridge first, don't let them spoil."

YangMeng opened the box to take a look, all of them were big tiger prawns, and each one was big and fresh.

"Oh, these big prawns look good, they're all specially supplied?"

BaiLuoYin said without even lifting his head, "I can't remember who brought them. The house is packed full. Although the two of us can eat a lot, we can't finish them all! If the two of you have yet to buy New Year goods, you don't have to go. I figure these stuff will be enough to feed you two."

YangMeng scanned through the items; all the things that BaiLuoYin brought over were good stuff, YangMeng felt extremely grateful. After packing the stuff away, GuHai said to BaiLuoYin, "Go wash your hands first." The two walked to the bathroom and just then YouQi came out. Seeing the two of them, he was quite shocked.

"Why have the two of you come?"

GuHai dumped one sentence immediately, "To see if you're still alive."

After saying, he pressed BaiLuoYin's hands into the sink.

YouQi leaned on the door, watching GuHai rubbing BaiLuoYin's hands quite seriously. YouQi couldn't help giving two light coughs, "Eh, I say, you don't have to be like this right? He doesn't even know how to wash his hands?"

GuHai replied without any change in expression, "I help him rub his hands, conveniently rubbing my hands as well, aren't I helping you to save water?"

After saying, he pulled down a towel and tossed it to BaiLuoYin, letting him dry his hands. Going back to the living room, YangMeng was just on the sofa packing some stuff. BaiLuoYin saw a bottle of marbles and a catapult underneath the coffee table by chance. His eyes lit up and took them out immediately.

"Eh, I say, where did you buy this from? They still sell this kind of things these days?" Boys that were born in the 80s would feel especially nostalgic, seeing these things.

YangMeng stared at it like it's his precious treasure, "This is the toy I played with when I was young. I kept it till now."

The more BaiLuoYin looked the more he valued its rarity, and he said to YangMeng immediately, "Give this catapult to me. I also want to take it back to collect, as a keepsake."

YangMeng was not willing to! However BaiLuoYin had gifted him so many New Year goods, so he still bit his teeth and nodded.

YouQi stood at the side and saw everything exactly, how unwilling YangMeng was when he gave the thing away. His YangMeng had really liked this catapult; he would take it out to fiddle when he had nothing to do. YouQi felt very sorry seeing him like this. Hence he walked to GuHai.

"Eh, talk to your YinZi, let him return the catapult to my MengZi. My MengZi don't have much taste, he just likes to tinker with these old things. If you take it away from him, he won't feel good."

It was rare; GuHai was very easy to talk to this time, he agreed very happily.

He walked in front of BaiLuoYin, took over the catapult and put it inside his pocket.
