Early the next morning, Zhulan received the New Year's gift from Shi Qing. Looking at the gift list, Zhulan was stunned. Shi Qing's gift list was not light. For her, as well as the pen and ink for Zhou Shuren, the most valuable is the seal.

She heard Zhou Shuren say a lot about Shi Qing. Shi Qing couldn't do business because of the price of the imperial examination. She was embarrassed for a few years. It was said that the family was burglarized, and some house deeds and shop deeds were lost. She believed this Hui is not self-directed and self-acted, it is really man-made revenge.

She said, Shi Qing is not someone who doesn't leave a way for her, and she is really generous.

Zhulan showed Zhou Shuren the gift list, "Do you accept it?"

Zhou Shuren, "I taught him for free for two years, and I also took care of him for two years. I received these gifts with peace of mind. I accepted them."

However, Shi Qing lives in a small courtyard, with only a groom and a servant beside him. He even gave him these things generously. I really trust him!

Bamboo Orchid is popular, she really likes gold and silver, "Really?"

"receive."

The corners of Zhulan's mouth are wide, and she is in a really good mood. The two sets of gold jewelry are all made by masters. The golden steps are thin and the butterflies seem to be able to fly. worth silver.

Zhulan happily accepted all of them. She really liked it, and she didn't know whether the one in her belly was a daughter or a son. "Both sets of jewelry are reserved for the child in her belly."

Zhou Shuren stroked his beard. He felt that he should also leave something good for his unborn daughter, "Yeah."

Zhu Lan put away all the jewelry and asked, "Shi Qing is celebrating the New Year alone, do you want to invite me over?"

Zhou Shuren said for Shi Qing's generosity, "Yes."

Zhulan, "Tell him tomorrow, I think he admires you a lot."

Zhou Shuren paused, "Okay."

The next day, Zhou Shuren fined Shi Qing again, "A lot of this article is inaccurate, so go back and copy it a hundred times."

Shi Qing's wrists are used to it, "Yes."

Today's class is over, Shi Qing has packed up his pen and ink. He has come to Zhou Mansion to study for a long time. He also met a former partner in Lizhou City. Knowing that Master Zhou taught him, he satirized him at first, but it changed immediately. The face that pleases everyone now knows that he is a student of Lord Zhou.

Just the students get asylum, what about the son? Miss Wu's brother is a godson, and it seems that he is also being protected by Lord Zhou!

Shi Qing lowered her head and thought a lot, her eyes were desolate, and it was another New Year. He was so old, and he had never had a New Year. Before, his son-in-law didn't want to see him, so he never participated.

Later, when his brother died, he couldn't participate either. This was a concession from his father to his mother. Fortunately, he was used to it.

Zhou Shuren waited until Shi Qing saluted and walked to the door before speaking, "You are out alone, come to your house this New Year."

Shi Qing felt that she had hallucinated. When Lord Zhou left, Shi Qing realized that he heard right.

Zhou Shuren walked to the gate of the courtyard and heard Shi Qing loudly reply, "Thank you sir."

She paused in her footsteps, then waved her hand and left.

Shi Qing hugged the book hard. It was New Year's Eve, so he had done a good job. For this year's New Year, Shi Qing walked out of the yard briskly.

Outside the gate, the servant saw the son, "Young master, are you very happy?"

He has followed the son since his age, and it was the first time he was so happy to see the son.

Shi Qing, "So obvious?"

Shi Qing nodded, "Well, your son's eyes are bright."

Shi Qing curled the corners of her mouth, "I see, it's indeed a happy event for the young master to bring you to the Zhou Mansion for the New Year."

The little servant sighed, this is indeed a great event. Lord Zhou is called Young Master, so he secretly went to worship Buddha, and he will go to worship Buddha tomorrow. I hope Lord Zhou can live a long life, yes, and the mistress of the Zhou family. Safe production.

As soon as I caught my eye, it was New Year's Eve. Zhulan and Zhou Shuren celebrated the fifth New Year. This year is different. They have their own children, and they feel that the New Year is different.

Zhulan and Zhou Shuren came to ancient times, and they were quite excited in the first year. In the first year they lived, the second year was okay, and in the third year, they felt nothing.

But this year, Zhulan and Zhou Shuren got up early in the morning. Both their spirits and their attitudes changed. Zhou Shuren personally took his grandchildren to post couplets and hang red lanterns.

Zhulan cut out the window grilles again, and also got out a lot of red paper, made a small red lantern and hung it on the tree outside.

The bare trees, painted with little red lanterns and red nets, seem to bear fruit in winter.

Outside, Zhou Shuren posted a couplet, and went to buy a cannon. He took off his official uniform and wore a normal uniform. The doll beside him was calling his grandfather. Zhou Shuren was smiling.

Zhulan took her daughter, Wu Yu and her two granddaughters, and folded red envelopes together. This year, Zhulan brought a lot of peanuts, one in each red envelope.

Yushuang asked, "Grandma, there are too many red envelopes."

There are not so many people in the family.

Zhulan explained: "This year's New Year's Eve treats, I will tie the red envelopes to the tree. There are puzzles below. Whoever guesses the red envelopes correctly will get the red envelopes."

Yushuang rolled her eyes, "This is interesting."

Xuehan, "Mother, you are very happy this year."

Last year, my mother didn't say that she wanted to play. She was not very energetic. This year, she was looking forward to the New Year. She felt an indescribable feeling, not only happy.

Zhulan said in her heart, because she has a sense of belonging, so she and Zhou Shuren have changed. Now she and Zhou Shuren feel that every day is interesting, and they cherish time very much. Ah, my mother is pregnant with a child again, and she feels that she is still young.

Xuehan leaned against her mother, "Mother, you are not old at all. In my eyes, mother has always been very young."

Xuehan hoped that her mother would always be with her. She said that she was getting old and she felt uncomfortable.

Yu Lu said, "Grandma, we will take good care of the little uncle or aunt."

Bamboo Orchid, "..."

Yes, the child in my belly is of a very old age.

Xuehan burst out laughing, it's interesting to think about the little brother or sister, the niece who took care of him and grew up.

Noon is the same hot pot, because Zhulan can’t eat mutton, so this year’s New Year’s Eve divided the table according to each room. Zhulan and his wife took Wu Xi and Xuehan to a table.

Rong Chuan, Ming Yun and Shi Qing are at the table.

Zhulan's table is made of chicken soup. There are fish fillets, pork, and mushrooms on the table.

Because Xuehan and Wu Yan also didn't want to eat mutton and beef, Zhulan didn't get two pots at this table.

It was the first time that Wu Xi participated in the New Year with so many people. Although the people in the room were talking chaotically, they were lively and warm.

Shi Qing has eaten better pots before, but this one is the most heart-warming pot.

Just like little lord Mingyun, "Young Master Shi, you're welcome."

Shi Qing smiled, "Okay."

This is the eldest grandson of the Zhou family. I heard from Chang Lian that Master Zhou taught him hand-in-hand, and he took him with him since he was a child. It was really good to have several contacts.
