Chapter 716: Giving New Year’s gifts is a process of exchange!

Jia Xu just returned home yesterday. The family heard that he stayed at the Li family for one night, ate hot pot, and soaked in hot springs. Even when he went south, he received good care from the Li family.

From Mrs. Jia to Baozhu, everyone, old and young, is extremely grateful to the Li family.

So Mrs. Jia personally took her three daughters-in-law and prepared a new year gift for the Li family.

Before sending it out, the four Jiaren brothers came to visit and presented New Year gifts.

The specialties of Broken Gold Beach are jade melons and golden fruits. At this time of the year, we have planted a lot of them in the Jiayin space, but we dare not take them out.

Fortunately, the fruits on the mountain are not bad, so Jiayin is not going to interfere.

Therefore, the New Year gifts prepared by the Li family for their relatives and friends are basically two baskets of fruits, two baskets of fresh vegetables, two boxes of snacks from Baiyunjian, and a pig leg, plus sea fish and dry goods brought back by the fleet.

The pig hind legs were specially set aside after selecting three fat pigs from the pig house a few days ago and killing them together.

The big white pig of Broken Gold Beach is now also a star pig in Shilibaxiang.

Everyone travels a long way to bring their sows here to "get married" and then give birth to a litter of white pigs or floret pigs.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but everyone thinks that these white pigs and floret pigs are easier to grow meat when raised, and the pork tastes less fishy and more fragrant.

So, this time the Li family selected pig legs as a New Year gift and sent them to every house.

Because of her good relationship with the Jia family, Mrs. Li missed Mrs. Jia, an old sister, and specifically asked her granddaughter to provide two extra baskets of good fruits.

For example, bananas, sweet oranges, pears, grapes, etc.

As the elderly get older and their sense of taste deteriorates, they are always willing to eat some sweet fruits.

Especially in winter, people sleep on a fire bed and use earth dragons or charcoal pots for warmth to avoid getting burned.

At this time, it is so happy to have a juicy fruit to moisten my throat.

Mrs. Jia smiled happily and quickly asked her daughter-in-law to bring out her New Year's gifts.

The Jia family has no fruits or fresh vegetables, but they have a cloth village and a farm.

So the New Year's gift to the Li family was two cages of pheasants, two barrels of carp, four bags of new rice, two bags of sticky rice and one bag of beans of various colors.

In addition, there are four pieces of silk, four pieces of fine cotton, four boxes of embroidery thread and embroidery needles.

There are a lot of these things, but the Jiaren brothers still have to go to the Xing family, so they cannot be put on the Li family's carriage.

So, Jia Xu first accompanied everyone to Xing's house, and then personally delivered the things to Ruijintan.

The Jia family was very happy to see the Li family and the Xing family get married, so after sitting for a while, Mrs. Jia kicked her grandson out and hurriedly took the Jiaren brothers out.

Mrs. Jia Er had already sent news to her brother's family, so Mr. Xing and Mrs. Xing were waiting at home.

Previously, my daughter came back, but she endured her shyness and talked a lot with Mrs. Xing.

The Li family's love and Jiaren's magnanimity satisfy both Master Xing and Mrs. Xing.

But they had not seen Jiaren with their own eyes, and they were still worried.

Finally, Xing Ning greeted everyone in front of the door.

Jiaren walked in front and was the first to enter.

Compared to those wealthy families, the Li family has a much shallower foundation.

But Jiaren is the grandson of Li's parents. He has followed his family from a poor farm to the present. He has experienced a lot and has experienced a lot. He has been studying and taking care of his younger brothers. The most important thing about him is stability and pragmatism. There is still a bit of bookishness in it.

This is the look that all the elders like the most.

After all, who doesn’t want his daughter to marry a good and reliable man?

Jiaren was wearing a sapphire blue brocade robe today, a navy blue belt around his waist, a jade pendant engraved with the three friends of Sui Han, and a dark green purse. He has black hair, **** with a hollow silver band, which is neat and tidy.

His bronze face looks very healthy, without the paleness that is common among scholars.

Wearing boots with white soles and navy blue suede, goshawks are embroidered with gold thread on both sides of the ankles.

Because the weather was cold, he also wore a wolf skin lining and a dark brocade embroidered goshawk cloak, matching the boots.

Mr. Xing and Mrs. Xing were filled with satisfaction when they saw such a handsome and handsome young man walking in step by step through the light snow that had just fallen.

Soon, both parties bowed and offered their seats for tea.

Mr. Xing and Mrs. Xing did not neglect Jia Huan, Brother Li and Brother Mao.

Jia Huan is honest and honest, Brother Li is smart and polite, Brother Cat is innocent and lively, and they all have lovable personalities.

This also made Mr. Xing and Mrs. Xing even happier.

After all, in a gang of heroes, no matter how good the son-in-law is, he still needs the support of his brothers.

Evidently the Li family is as united as brothers and their family business is prosperous as they heard.

Mr. Xing is an editor and reads books all day long, so he is naturally very knowledgeable.

Just after chatting a few words, he couldn't help but start testing Jiaren's lessons, even Brother Li and Brother Mao didn't let them go.

Only Jia Huan escaped the "catastrophe" because he was a cook.

As a result, not only Jiaren's response made Master Xing extremely satisfied, but Brother Li and Brother Mao were also not bad.

This aroused Mr. Xing's love for talents, and he wanted to arrest the Jiaren brothers and ask them until dark.

Fortunately, Mrs.

Mr. Xing is still unfinished and has made an appointment for Jiaren to come and have a long chat with him when he has time after the New Year.

Jiaren was not timid and responded generously.

When he was going out, a window in the side room opened a crack as wide as a palm. Jiaren guessed that Wan'er was behind, so he nodded with a smile and left with his brothers...

Not to mention that the Jiaren brothers hurried to Luo'an Academy, they were very busy with the good news.

In the main hall of the Marquis Mansion, the housekeeper accompanied Jiayin and was sorting out the gift lists one by one, writing out the gift lists in return, and preparing things.

Logically speaking, the Marquis has a large number of troops and is determined to be a solitary minister. He rarely has anything to do with outsiders.

But humans are social animals, how can they not have any human feelings at all? !

So, even if the Hou Mansion only gives New Year's gifts to some old relatives and friends of the Ye family and the Hou's fellow teachers, there are more than thirty people in total.

The housekeeper couldn't help but said: "Fortunately, the fruits and fresh vegetables brought by the princess added color to the New Year's gift.

“Otherwise, there will be so many things that are exchanged every year. What is sent from this family will be sent to that family.

“In the end, many people may have received things that were given away by themselves, which would be really embarrassing.”

Jiayin closed the gift list and said with a smile: "Fortunately, our family has a greenhouse, and there is no shortage of fruits and vegetables. They are rare at this time of year, so we really saved a lot of money on New Year gifts."

She pointed to the ten baskets of fruit in the corner of the storehouse on the ground, and gave instructions to the steward.

"Uncle Steward, these fruits are for the people in the mansion. Could you please help me share them. Tomorrow, I will go to the palace and give a new year gift to Uncle Huang. If there is anything in the mansion, please ask someone to find me at any time. ”

"Yes, Princess." The chief steward responded with a smile. When he was about to speak, the Marquis came back, followed by two young men.

The housekeeper looked familiar and did not recognize it for a moment, but Jiayin jumped up happily...
