New Year's Eve arrived.
To ensure a good meal on this New Year's Eve, Ah Wang assigned tasks to everyone in the family.
Liu Ji was responsible for writing couplets and hanging lanterns.
Second Lang, Sanlang, and Si Niang followed Qin Yao to carry out the big cleaning, sweeping away last year's bad luck and welcoming good fortune.
Ah Wang himself took over the kitchen and warned everyone in advance that no one was allowed to enter until he called, to avoid getting in the way.
Qin Yao, who rarely picks up a broom, said, "I want to switch with Liu Laosan."
Liu Ji was not willing to switch, having finally got an easy job, he was almost ready to give Ah Wang a big hug to express his gratitude.
