Chapter 443: The Gift

Xia Xiucai immediately understood what Tian meant. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info He hesitated for a moment, and finally told Old Man Xia to let Old Man Xia rest early. He will come over tomorrow to accompany Old Man Xia.

From the corner of Old Man Xia's eyes, he had already seen that Tian was squeezing his eyebrows at Xia Xiucai. He didn't want to put his eldest son in a dilemma, so he nodded. He also asked Xia Xiucai: "Tomorrow is the holiday, why don't you have to give you a day off in your academy." Come over tomorrow for the holidays, come early. ”

For so many years, Xia Xiucai has hardly spent the Shangyuan Festival at home, let alone with Old Man Xia.

Tomorrow the academy will of course be closed. In fact, although Xia Xiucai should have come to teach on the fifth day of junior high school, he was not too busy for a while, and some students from far away places had not yet returned.

Xia Xiucai agreed.

Li Xia saw that Xia Xiucai and Tian were leaving, so he hurriedly stood up and said that he would send the two back to the academy. Tian's impression of Li Xia was still very good, and she smiled at Li Xia, as if she was a little happy. However, Xia Xiucai waved his hand and refused to let Li Xia send it.

"This is very close to the academy, and I'm used to it, so I don't need you to send it." Then he also instructed Li Xia, saying that it was not early, and asked Li Xia to go home early to accompany Li Shanchang and Mrs. Tian if he had nothing to do.

Li Xia smiled, and still asked his subordinates to prepare a carriage to send Xia Xiucai, Tian and Erya back.

Tian had a little smile on his face when he left, which was probably because of Li Xia. Xia Zhi glanced at Li Xia, and remembered what Mrs. Jiugu had just said in Tianfu.

Mrs. Jiugu said that Li Xia was especially good at coming to trouble. Xia Zhi had always felt that Li Xia was kind to talk and do things before, because of Mrs. Jiugu's words, she thought about it and came to the conclusion that Li Xia would indeed come to trouble.

It's never a disadvantage that things will come, such people are always liked.

sent off Xia Xiucai and his family of three, but Li Xia did not leave. He held the little black fish in his arms and laughed, because Xia Zhi and Mrs. Xia were discussing tomorrow's holiday, and he also helped the staff from time to time to say a few words.

At the Shangyuan Lantern Festival, large households in Fucheng generally have to buy some lights, and then buy a few fireworks to set off, which is quite a competition with each other. This is also what the people of Shangyuan Lantern Club Fucheng like to see.

"You'll be late when you come back, so I'll take care of these things for you." Li Xia told Xia Zhi with a smile.

When I returned to Ninghua Hall on the night of the summer solstice, I found that the lanterns everywhere had been changed. Li Xia is not only doing this, she told Xia Zhi that there will be more lights outside the door of Ninghua Hall tomorrow. He's already found someone, and this lamp still has to be named. He also bought fireworks for the summer solstice.

It's the same with the lip on the side. At this time, the shops are thinking about the top-notch, so as to attract people's attention, which will also have an impact on the business in the new year.

Xia Zhi couldn't help but smile when he heard his thoughtful arrangement. "Li Xia, it's really thanks to you." Otherwise, she would not have been able to live in Daxingzhuang until the twelfth day of the first lunar month.

"I'm sure I'm not going to care about what you've entrusted me." Li Xia smiled, and then teased the little black fish, saying that he would take him to set off fireworks tomorrow.

The little black fish was so happy that she almost wanted to climb onto Li Xia's shoulder, but the old lady Xia saw it next to her and glared at the little black fish.

"Look at you, I still want to go to heaven. Sit honestly, or let you go to sleep. Then Mrs. Xia complained to Li Xia that the little black fish was too energetic~ Sheng.

Such a lively little fish, of course, the energy is prosperous~ prosperous.

Li Xia laughed, saying that he was very rare little black fish, and he didn't think the little black fish was naughty. As for the energetic ~ Sheng, that's also a good thing, who likes a child with a wilted head and no energy.

Mrs. Xia laughed helplessly, saying that Li Xia was too used to the little black fish. Then, Mrs. Xia and Mrs. Xia sat on the kang and said something considerate, and here Li Xia still sat down with the little black fish and Xia Zhi.

Xia Zhi asked Li Xia: "Why did Tian Kuo go to send Miss Bing'er, you didn't say anything about it last time you went to my house." ”

"It was the Ninth Aunt who told you." Li Xia said.

"We went to see Jiugu and didn't see Tian Kuo show up, so I guessed that he might not be at home."

"When he came back from your house, he sent Bing'er home." Li Xia told Xia Zhi.

Xia Zhi was slightly surprised, Tian Kuo was actually spending the New Year at He Bing'er's house?

Li Xia nodded.

Xia Zhi raised his eyebrows slightly: "Then are the two of them about to get married?" ”

"He Bing'er wants to be the daughter-in-law of Melon?" The little black fish was surprised.

"Be quiet." Xia Solstice made a gesture towards the little black fish.

The little black fish pursed her lips, and then lowered her voice: "He Bing'er is so annoying." Why does Melon want her to be her daughter-in-law! "I don't seem to understand this very much.

Xia Zhi laughed secretly in his heart, a little kid like Little Black Fish didn't understand He Bing'er's charm. Although she doesn't like He Bing'er very much, and thinks He Bing'er is very pretentious, after all, there are many men and boys who like such girls.

Li Xia laughed twice: "It's okay, the melon is happy to do it, my uncle and aunt were entrusted by my grandmother on her deathbed, and they also nodded." Now it mainly depends on the He family, and there are ...... Bing'er ...... herself"

Xia Zhi glanced at Little Black Fish, and she felt that some of the next topics didn't seem to be suitable for Little Black Fish to hear. The little black fish is still a child after all.

"Uncle, I want to eat double skin milk. You go and talk to the kitchen, and let Xiaoshu'er accompany you. "Xia Solstice discussed with the little black fish.

The little black fish often thinks of what to eat by herself, and then tells Xia Zhi. Summer Solstice sometimes lets him dictate the kitchen himself. The little black fish is quite happy to run this leg~.

Because Xia Solstice was going to eat a snack, he wanted to eat it himself, so he jumped off Li Xia's arms happily.

"Bring one for the big guys, and you can tell the kitchen what to eat." Xia Zhi instructed again.

The little black fish said yes and ran away.

Xia Zhi lowered his voice and spoke to Li Xia: "...... According to common sense, I don't think this is impossible. Even if the He family has any other ideas, your uncle and aunt have made their intentions so obvious, and they can't help but agree for the sake of your two families taking care of Miss Bing'er over the years. ”

But listening to Li Xia's words, it seems that this matter is not so certain.

"Something else, right?" Xia Zhi asked Li Xia.

Li Xia smiled again, the meaning of this smile is rich, and Xia Zhi can't guess it for a while. "Can't say it yet? Bing'er herself doesn't like Tian Kuo, she likes you?! ”

"Don't, don't, no, don't......" Li Xia hurriedly waved his hand, with a look of rejection on his face.

Xia Solstice was almost amused by him. "Look at you! …… Am I wrong? When I was in Fucheng a few days ago, Miss Bing'er was quite obvious......"

Li Xia smiled bitterly: "Bing'er, she ...... That's the kind of character. Sixteen, you little girls must also be strong in the same area. She may not look at anything you don't like, but if you do, she'll definitely grab it. ”

Xia Zhi's heart moved. What did Li Xia mean by this...... And then there is Li Xia's gaze at this moment......

The summer solstice selectively ignores a part. She analyzed this problem with Li Xia very objectively: "Li Xia, if you say that, you are underestimating yourself a little. In terms of family background, you and Tian Kuo are the worst. In terms of appearance ......and appearance, well, some people may think that Tian Kuo is a little better, but you believe me, you are by no means worse than Tian Kuo......"

was so bluntly talked about his appearance in front of Xia Zhi, Li Xia didn't have time to be embarrassed at all. He almost naturally followed the rhythm of the summer solstice, and touched his face cooperatively.

"Summer solstice, I think, you may be ...... You may have your own feelings......"

"I didn't say that." Xia Zhi hurriedly said, "If you don't believe it, ask my grandfather and my grandmother, who is more attractive, you or Tian Kuo." ”

"Big~Grandpa~ Milk is rare like me?" Li Xia asked, seemingly a little unconfident.

"Of course." Not only Mr. Xia and Mrs. Xia, but eight ~ nine out of ten people should think so.

Tian Kuo looks too good as a man, and Li Xia's handsome appearance is more manly and more generally accepted by the public.

Li Xia looked at the summer solstice for a while, and then he asked, "That sixteen, you are rare like me?" ”

Xia Solstice almost nodded, but she reacted quickly, and just as she was about to nod, she realized that such an answer seemed to be a little wrong.

Xia Zhi straightened her face, and she told Li Xia very seriously: "I also think that you are more beautiful than Tian Kuonai." ”

Li Xia smiled, and something inexplicable flashed in his eyes. "I'm relieved."

Xia Zhi didn't ask Li Xia what he was relieved about, and then he told Xia Zhi very seriously: "If Bing'er wants to choose me, it's not about my appearance." She thinks I'm more promising than Tian Kuo......"

When he said the last sentence, Li Xia's tone was low.

Xia Zhi was also silent for a while, and then decided not to talk about this topic anymore.

"Actually, Tian Kuo is not bad. The two of them grew up together and knew each other's roots. Tian Kuo is usually a flowery mouthful, and I can see that he is very different from Bing'er. "If He Bing'er marries Tian Kuo, she should be very happy in the future. Tian Kuo loves her, and her parents-in-law will definitely be very tolerant of her.

"Let's see what they have to say when they come back." Li Xia said lightly.

The two of them talked about something else. Then Li Xia took a brocade box in his hand and pushed it to Xia Zhi.

Xia Zhi asked Li Xia with his eyes. This brocade box was held by Li Xia when he accompanied them to see Mrs. Jiugu today. Then when he arrived at Ninghua Hall, Li Xia put the brocade box on this table.

The people of the Xia family have been behaving since they were children, and without the permission of the master, even if something is placed in front of them, they will not move.

Therefore, no one has touched this brocade box.

The curiosity is so heavy, Li Xia, who is so close to Li Xia, didn't ask what was in this brocade box.

"For you. Sixteen, you forgot that when you went home a year ago, I said I was going to give you a flower crown, and you wore it when you said you wanted to go to the yuan......"

"Ah......" Xia Zhi immediately remembered. She's been so busy these days that she's almost forgotten about it. However, before coming to Fucheng, she still thought about it.

"Already ready?" Summer Solstice took the brocade box.

"I just played two days ago, and I asked him to play more carefully. You see, like it or not? Li Xia looked at Xia Zhi with a smile.

Xia Solstice opened the brocade box, and almost immediately his eyes were flashed by the contents of the brocade box.

The red gold corolla is not big, small and compact, and is simply inlaid with a few pearls, but it is so surprising and unique that people can't take their eyes off it.

This is according to the way she painted, but it is a hundred times more beautiful than the way she painted. I think that the craftsman is a good craftman, but it should be more of Li Xia's aesthetics.

"It's so pretty." Xia Solstice couldn't help but say.

Li Xia's eyebrows and eyes were full of smiles. "If you like it, if you like. I'm afraid you don't like it. ”

"Yes, of course I do."

Li Xia's aesthetics are so in tune with herself.

"Then put it on and try it." Li Xia said.

"Hmm." Xia Zhi nodded, and got up to find a mirror. Then Li Xia held up the mirror, and Xia Zhi put the golden crown on his head in front of the mirror.

The two of them walked around together, and Old Man Xia and Old Lady Xia both looked over.

"Oh, this is ......" Old Lady Xia exclaimed in surprise.

"Grandpa, grandma, do you think this crown is good-looking?" The summer solstice will make Old Man Xia and Old Lady Xia good.

"Ah......" Old Man Xia sat on the kang and tilted his head. Mrs. Xia immediately said that it was good-looking, and then came over to look at it carefully, and was even more full of praise.

Li Xia took the initiative to explain next to him: "If you want to wear it during the 16th Festival, ask me to find someone to beat it." ”

"This is something that ordinary people can't play. I've never seen this beautiful thing......" Mrs. Xia smiled, "You have to find a suitable dress to match, it will look even better." ”

The eldest girl and the little daughter-in-law of Beizhen Mansion are generally dressed up beautifully.

Xia Zhi also felt that it was necessary to choose a suitable set of clothes. Aunt Xia San, Sun Lan'er, Sun Xiu'er, Layue and Chen Xing'er all came over, and Xia Zhi opened her suitcase and asked the big guy to help her choose the clothes she would wear tomorrow.

Old Man Xia sat on the kang, looked at it twice, and then let go. Li Xia had no sense of disobedience and helped Xia Zhi choose clothes by Xia Zhi's side.

"This gold has to be matched with a big red one to look good." Mrs. Xia said.

The big guys all thought that this made sense, and finally helped Xia Zhi choose a set of clothes with a red background.

"Tomorrow will be the best, our sixteenth will definitely be the best-looking." Sun Xiu'er said with a smile.

Everyone chimed in.

"Our family, it's really the sixteenth most handsome." Mrs. Xia also said.

"Oh, I'm ashamed of what you guys say. Put it away, put it away quickly, I'll wear it again tomorrow. Xia Zhi said with a smile.

Everyone also laughed and helped Xia Zhi put away his clothes. At this time, Li Xia was already sitting on the edge of the kang and talking to Old Man Xia.

When Little Black Fish and Little Shu'er came with a snack, everyone had just finished talking and laughing.

Xiao Shu'er felt as if he was missing something. The little black fish looked like he knew everything. Li Xia's affairs were not hidden from him!
