Chapter 270 Second update

How can you accept New Year's gifts with such an appearance? It seems so disrespectful.

Mrs. Xu grabbed her granddaughter's arm from behind the meat case and ran towards home.

Xu Tianxin said quickly: "Wait, grandma," and hurriedly took off the apron around her neck and handed it back to Grandma Song in the village.

The three Xu family members were also pushed by the Fourth Master to go home quickly, wash their hands, change their clothes, and tidy their hair.

The Fourth Master summoned the decent people in the village and hurriedly brought hot tea to the generals to warm themselves up.

One of the decent people is Liu Jingdong.

Liu Jingdong looked at the handwriting in the snow that was submerged by the snowflakes. He wanted to look up to the sky and scream, but it was over. Everything he had finally made up was covered.

When Xu Tianxin arrived home, the old lady almost fainted from the blood on her little great-granddaughter's body. Zhaodi also sat up in a hurry, with four pieces of her hair shaved off.

Mrs. Xu took a breath, waved her hands and said, "Pig Blood, lie down, don't worry about it."

This old lady heard that it was done by butchering a pig, so she slapped Xu Tian Xin on the butt: "I just made a mistake, and then I could have made a lot of money."

Ouch, her ribs hurt.

"Stop dragging her around and let her wash up quickly. The official is here to give her New Year's gifts. Please clean up the baby's milk. Except for those who are lying on the kang, everyone else in our family will go out."

"ah?!!"

I've heard of people down there trying to kill high-ranking officials, but I've never heard of high-ranking officials taking the initiative to give New Year's gifts to us ordinary people.

Besides, we don’t seem to have any special contributions. Wasn’t it the female general who caused the problem in the first place? The child sewed shoe insoles and other things for Zheng Diantang Shui. Tian Xin did not sew them, but she sewed them. Is this okay?

No, no, no, the little great-granddaughter must have done something else, and she didn't know about it. No one can win the respect of others by eating well and being lazy.

The old lady excitedly climbed onto the kang and took out new clothes for Xu Tianxin: "Don't keep them, wear them quickly."

Mrs. Xu found that the old lady was busier than she was.

When Xu Tianxin put on the only new dress he had left, which was meant to be worn for the Chinese New Year tomorrow, Yue Wei will read out General Fenwu's New Year's gift in a serious manner. The first item is the clothes.

As General Yue Wei read out, the box was opened, revealing a pomegranate red brocade dress with fourteen butterflies embroidered on the collar and skirt.

Xu Tianxin will be fourteen years old after the Chinese New Year.

Lu Yan hopes that Xu Tianxin can transform like a butterfly in the new year, and when he emerges from the cocoon, he can still be as free and happy as when he first met. This dress took two months to make and was made by Lu Yan's most respected nanny.

The second item is a polished bronze mirror, which was captured by Lu Yan when he followed Huo Yunqian when he attacked Loulan four years ago.

Back then, Huo Yunqian was disgusted by Loulan, so he personally led seven hundred elite cavalry through oases, snowy mountains, and deserts, sweeping thousands of miles to capture King Loulan alive. Known as Huo Ghost, he intimidates the Western Regions. But all the seven hundred elite cavalry were injured, and Lu Yan almost died in this battle. The most annoying thing is that the court released King Loulan back after the incident.

However, that battle was the most exciting and enjoyable battle in Lu Yan's heart, so she cherished the captured items.

This time I gave the bronze mirror to Xu Tianxin because I was thinking, how could the girl’s house not have a mirror? Bronze mirrors symbolize perfection and are one of the dowry gifts.

Generals die in hundreds of battles, and heroes return in ten years. No matter where she is in the future, or even whether she is still in this world, she will always be with her. She also had two bronze mirrors for Sui Feng and Sui He, so this one was given to Tian Xin'er.

Fenwu General Lu Yan's third New Year's gift was vinegar shipped from his hometown in Bingzhou. Lu Yan likes all foods to taste sour and spicy. In her opinion, only the vinegar from their hometown is the most authentic. And a set of black-glazed bottles and jars of various sizes.

Lu Yan thought of the herbal oils that Xu Tianxin was playing with, and thought it would be good to use this set of bottles and cans.

Then there are no other gifts from my hometown.

Lu Yan's nanny felt extremely uncomfortable. Lu Yan would send five hundred taels of silver to his hometown every year to provide education for the younger generations of the family. But my uncle from my hometown has not said a word for several years.

Just because three years ago, a relative in the clan wanted to seek an official position without passing the imperial examination, but Lu Yan rejected it. Later, he used crooked ideas to occupy a poor student's imperial examination quota, making him think he had failed. When Lu Yan found out, he cut off his cousin's hand tendons and hamstrings.

Therefore, this set of porcelain vases and vinegar were sent by Lu Yan's biological aunt, otherwise the soldiers would be away at war, and there would not even be annual gifts or family letters.

Unfortunately, even this aunt has other plans.

Lu Yan never got married and had no children for most of his life. The aunt was always afraid that Lu Yan would die in one of his hundreds of battles and that no one would inherit his huge family property. The family letter that gave the New Year gift once again mentioned that she hoped Lu Yan would consider adopting her grandson.

As for the fourth gift, it is naturally a car full of fireworks.

This was given to Zhang Luo by Suifeng Suihe, who bought a whole cartload of fireworks from the newly established firecracker shop in Zhenbei Dadi.

Sui He thought, they had been to many cities with the general on his campaigns and had seen a lot of prosperity, but Xu Tianxin had only played with gunpowder, but had never seen that gunpowder could produce so many gorgeous fireworks.

When Suihe was loading the car, she told Suifeng that she seemed to have seen Xu Tianxin wearing a pomegranate red dress, smiling and standing under the fireworks, clapping happily.

It's a pity that they can't see this scene with their own eyes.

Until the third day of the Lunar New Year, they have to patrol around with high-ranking generals. Lu Yan is one of them, and they can't live without it as their accompanying bodyguards.

While Xu Tianxin was taking these gifts one by one with both hands, Lu Yan in the distance had frostbite on his face and several layers of frost on his eyelashes. On the twenty-ninth day of the twelfth lunar month, he was still crawling around in the mountains and old forests to train his army.
