Farmers have children to raise

Chapter 83 The Adventures of the Palace (1)
As the first heavy snow stops, the New Year will come.

This is Baochun's first New Year here, and it's inevitable that she feels melancholy and misses her old man more and more.

Fate has played a trick, separating the two places, when will they meet again?
I can only lament, the life in front of me still has to go on.

The activities to welcome the New Year start from the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, such as cleaning the house, washing hair and bathing, preparing New Year's utensils and so on.

On New Year's Day, it is even more necessary to worship the heavens and ancestors, and pay New Year's greetings to the elders.

At this time, the general's mansion is also full of joy, and everyone who is outside rushes back to celebrate the new year.

The second brother, Shen Nan, who had never been masked, also came back from the barracks.

Shen Nan is a child of the second uncle's family. He is the only one of his generation who has joined the military. He usually stays in the military camp and rarely stays at home.

This time when he came back from the annual leave, he heard that Shen Baochun had returned from his remote hometown, so he sent a gift with his servant.

Randomly selected some spiced silks and satins, a copy of the Four Treasures of the Study.

The boy called Gao Fu went, this guy followed his master in the barracks, and he had a rough air all over him, and he couldn't understand Baochun's disobedience to women.

When he arrived at Baochun's courtyard, Gao Fu said in a daze, this is a gift from my young master to the third lady, this spice is extremely rare, and I hope the third lady will cherish it.

Baochun raised his eyes and took a look. Since he entered the courtyard, his head had been raised high, and this guy with squinting eyes winked at Lan Xiang next to him.

Lan Xiang put down the sewing basket in her hand, stood up and walked to the guy, "Second young master's kindness, my young lady appreciates it, go back and say hello to your young master on behalf of our young lady, but this gift is unnecessary, my family The young lady never uses spices, and our place will suffer from damp."

When Gao Fu heard this, he lowered his head, straightened his eyes, looked at the girl in front of him, then at the third lady who was leaning on the recliner and reading a book, stared blankly for a while, then turned and left.

After returning home, Shen Nan asked, "Why are you holding me back?"

Gao Fu twisted his neck, "She doesn't care about our gifts, it's fine if the second young master doesn't dislike her, but she still dislikes us."

Shen Nan, who was wiping a sword, suddenly raised his head, put the sword on the table, and stared at Gao Fu.

Gao Fu was so stared at that he lowered his head slightly, and told everything about how he went to Miss San's place.

Shen Nan glanced at him, said nothing, put away the sword on the table, and walked towards the door.

Gao Fuzheng didn't know his young master's attitude, so when he saw his young master passing by him, he turned around and kicked him, gave him a hard look and left.

Shen Nan collected some valuable gifts from her mother and went to the third sister alone.

In the Shen family's generation, the descendants are not considered prosperous, and the combined cousins ​​only have five children.

Ordinarily, with fewer children, the relationship between each other should be better, and these three younger sisters are the only girl in the Shen family, so they should be doted on by the brothers.

However, the three younger sisters didn't like to be touched by people since they were young, and they didn't like this courtyard. To be honest, there was really no affection between cousins.

Coupled with the fact that she was like that again later, it was impossible for her not to be contemptuous.

He had visited Third Younger Sister's courtyard once in the past, but when he walked in today, he found that it had completely changed.

Lush green plants, paths paved with stones, open spaces in front of houses, tables and chairs placed under the bright sun.

Snacks, charcoal stove, deck chairs, maids, guards, children, and dogs.

An atmosphere of ease and peace of life blows across the face.

Shen Nan took a deep breath, the woman reading a book on the recliner noticed him, and looked at him, first looked at the stranger's eyes, then frowned deeply, finally stood up knowingly, called second brother, and greeted him.

If it wasn't for the second elder brother, Shen Nan wouldn't dare to admit that this is his cousin, this change...

No wonder, when he was at his mother's place yesterday, he even said that he would have time to visit her cousin.

The siblings talked for a while, and during the interval, Shen Nan saw that Shen Yan was playing sand table with a beautiful little guy.

I didn't take it seriously at first, but after watching it for a while, I was startled. There is actually some kind of military art in it...

When he went to the third uncle's school, he heard Mr. Hu mention that the two brats seemed to be taught by someone, but he didn't know who the master was, and he had time to pay more attention. He never thought it was really...

Looking back at his smiling third sister, Shen Nan thought that he should walk around with her more in the future.

"...I bought this trauma ointment in a medical center. It has a very good curative effect. In the military camp like the second brother, he often struggles and bumps, so it is better to keep it in case of urgent needs." Before leaving, Baochun asked Lanxiang to bring some ointment for this cheap cousin.

Shen Nan gladly took it, it was really a practical thing, for people like them, getting injured was not a common occurrence, but this gift was delivered wisely.

Looking at the back of the cheap second brother going away, Baochun couldn't help sighing.

When paying New Year's greetings to elders in the New Year, it is necessary to give red envelopes.

The general's father gave Baochun a big red envelope, of course Xiaojiu and the black fat boy also had them, and they were not too small, but it was in Baochun's hands again at night.

The old lady who doesn't like Baochun very much, the red envelope is very formulaic, and the uncle and aunt are also very formulaic. Only the second aunt smiled and stuffed her a red envelope, which was very thick.

Baochun wanted to decline, but the second aunt said, "I heard that you like these."

Baochun accepted it with a stiff smile, and said to himself, who do you always listen to?You tell me, I'll go to him, isn't that slandering people?
What do you mean she likes these?She's not Qian Chuanzi, Qian Yan?
Well, even if she likes it, who doesn't like money?anyone there?

Such a bad reputation!
By the way, on this day, the palace also has rewards.

The queen is Cui's cousin, and her stepdaughter can be considered related, so she and her son also have gifts.

In fact, Baochun was eager to have nothing, even silver and golden mountains, because, according to the rules, if you get a gift, you have to go to the palace to thank you.
