Immediately after the 25th of the month of the month of the 25th fried tofu, the 26th of the month of the month cut the meat, the 27th of the month of the month killed a chicken, in a blink of an eye to the 28th of the month of the month, the next day is the Chinese New Year's Eve.

This year is the first year after Xu Xiangwan's one-room separation, and the days are looser than before, but because there are still more than half of the pigs, sheep, chickens and ducks sent by Shen Qianyu last time, the family did not waste money to buy pork again, but divided the previously marinated pork into small pieces and smoked it with pine and cypress to make bacon, and went to the town to buy casings, and poured five catties of mutton sausages and ten catties of pork sausages by themselves. Because Shen Qianyu sent fresh chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep that had been taken care of, the uneaten ones were all pickled by Zhang's and made into cured chickens and ducks, and the smell was even more fragrant than those sold in the market.

In addition, they have already separated from each other, and they need to worship their ancestors by themselves. Worshipping the gods and worshipping ancestors requires chicken blood paper money and killing roosters now, so Gorou bought a rooster from Guojia Town yesterday and came back to kill it.

These New Year's goods, although they are not the first in Xujia Village, they are quite rich. Especially compared with the upper room, Xu Xiangwan's family is simply too comfortable this day. Shangfang's life is now tight, the twenty taels of silver that sold Xu Xiangwan's sisters a few days ago were taken back by the Xue family, and after the year, they had to give Da Lang a tie, and they had to spend money everywhere, so this year they didn't even make sausages and bacon, but after selling the chickens and pigs raised at home, they cut five pounds of pork and kept them for the Chinese New Year's Eve.

In addition to meat, Xu Xiangwan's family also bought melon seeds, peanuts, jelly beans and other fried goods in the grocery store in the town, which would not even dare to think before the family was separated, not that the people in the house were reluctant to buy it, but that they did not have Xu Xiangwan's brothers and sisters.

The New Year's goods are almost ready, just waiting for the Chinese New Year's Eve to catch up with the half-matinee to buy couplets, door gods, firecrackers, etc., so although it has been closed in recent years, the family is idle.

Taking advantage of the last idle day of the year, Gorou went out with his family to the field to pick the pea tips and prepare to sell them for the last time before the year.

Due to the lack of fresh vegetables in winter, Chunfeng Restaurant's simple fried pea tips have become a signature dish, and the price has risen from 10 yuan to 50 yuan a piece, which is still in short supply, and its popularity surprised the shopkeeper Feng.

The tide rises naturally, and Xu Xiangwan's pea tips have also been sold from six cents a pound to twenty cents a catty, from a car every other day to a car a day, in less than 20 days, Xu Xiangwan's family has sold two thousand catties of pea tips and earned more than 20 taels of silver. If it weren't for the fact that Xu Xiangwan's family only planted peas on six acres of land, I am afraid they would have earned more. Coupled with the money left over from the previous sale of medicinal materials, Xu Xiangwan's family had already saved more than forty taels of silver.

Now one of the things Xu Xiangwan must do before going to bed every night is to count the silver, and if she doesn't count it every day, she can't even sleep soundly, this habit makes Xu Qiuyi laugh at her many times and can't change it.

In addition, Xu Xiangwan is also accustomed to exchanging copper plates into silver in the bank, although it is a lot of trouble, but she always feels that she can only be sure when she sees real money.

Just as Xu Xiangwan was pinching the tip of the pea while silently calculating the silver in his heart, there was a burst of dog barking in the field, which was different from the barking of the big dog in the village, which sounded milky and milky, but it made people feel wild.

"Mrs. Xu, Mr. Xu, can you stop?" As soon as Xu Xiangwan looked up at the source of the sound, he saw a slightly familiar figure waving towards them.

"Why is this Han Qi here again?" Seeing the person who beckoned, there was a tall man in Xuanyi standing far away, Xu Xiangwan couldn't help frowning.

Since the last Laba, Han Qi has come every few days, bringing some snacks and food every time, and occasionally giving Wulang and Xiao Jiu some academic guidance, as if he has become a frequent visitor to Xu Xiangwan's house.

For Han Qi, Xu Xiangwan's feelings are very complicated, if you want to say that she hates it, when she first learned that he was going to buy himself as a maid, there was a little bit of it, but in his later overtures again and again, that little bit of dislike also disappeared. But if you want to say that you like it, you really can't say it, once you contact him, there will be more trouble, causing Xu Xiangwan to subconsciously become vigilant when she sees Han Qi, for fear that if you don't pay attention, you will get into trouble again, and finally affect your family.

The Zhang family and the others already knew that Han Qi was an official master, and they didn't dare to slack off, so as soon as Steward Xue greeted him, he put the pea tips in his hand into the vegetable basket, quickly clapped his hands, tidied up his clothes, and went up to the nearest Tiankan to greet him.

No, Xu Xiangwan had to put down the pea tip in his hand and followed.

From a distance, I saw Han Qi wearing a black fox fur cloak wearing a black fox fur cloak, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, a straight nose and thin lips, and his whole body was perfect like a god, which made people unable to force their eyes. Although it only stood quietly under the carriage with its hands behind its back, it still had a full sense of presence, attracting the villagers who occasionally stopped to stop.

At Han Qi's feet stood a fiery red puppy shivering from the cold, with fluffy hair, long hair almost covering his face, looking honest and honest, only a pair of drooping brown eyes showed his fierce nature.

Seeing the person coming, the little dog was not only not timid, but stood up, glared at Xu Xiangwan and the others viciously, grinned and whimpered, and had a posture of pounce if it was not good.

"What is this?" Xu Xiangwan looked at the puppy with a fiery red body and a head bigger than his body, like a rumored lion, and he forgot to say hello to Han Qi, so he asked directly.

Seeing Xu Xiangwan's casual attitude and familiar tone, Han Qi not only did not get angry, but the corners of his mouth hooked up an imperceptible arc, and said lightly: "This is a mastiff from Tubo." This mastiff grows up to fight with wolves without falling behind, and has an extremely fierce temperament, but it is loyal to its owner, and it is the best to use it to watch the home and nursery. Your home is located at the foot of the mountain, this day is cold, I am afraid that there are a lot of wild beasts, my mastiff in my family happened to give birth to a litter of cubs, give you one, just to take care of your home. ”

After Xu Xiangwan heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and an excited smile appeared on his face.

The previous time Shen Qianyu mentioned that he wanted to send Xu Xiangwan wolf dog, but later considering that the wolf dog wanted to eat raw meat, and there was no other entry at home at that time, he did not mention it again.

Now that their family has finally saved some money, they can consider raising one to watch the family's nursing home.

Seeing that Xu Xiangwan was moved, Han Qier picked up the little mastiff on the ground and stuffed it into Xu Xiangwan's arms without saying a word, and she was not allowed to refuse at all.

But after not seeing him for a few days, Han Qi seemed to be more handsome again, his figure became more and more straight, and the whole person looked refreshed, full of aura, and dizzying.

After Han Qi and Xu Xiangwan finished speaking, Zhang led everyone to greet Han Qi one after another, and then welcomed Han Qi and Steward Xue into the courtyard, let Wulang and Xu Xiangwan accompany them, and he and Xu Qiuyi went to the kitchen to boil water and brew Xu Xiangwan's homemade plum blossom tea.

Now that the family has spare money, they have also bought some things, and they have bought a new set of cups, saucers, and chopsticks, and the one used to entertain Han Qi today is the porcelain cup that Gorou bought a few days ago.

After Han Qi took the tea, his eyes fixed on the teacup, first turned around twice like a playful turn, and then put it in front of his nose and sniffed it, his eyes were soft: "This tea is fragrant." ”

"This is plum blossom tea, it's fun to do it when you're idle, and I hope Lord Han won't dislike the vulgarity of tea." Because Han Qi is now close to Goro's family, and because Goro has benefited a lot from his guidance these days, Gorou has a trace of respect for Han Qi from the bottom of his heart, and he is no longer haunted by the previous events in Ganquan County.

Han Qi nodded, a smile flashed in his eyes, but there was no trace on his face, he just said lightly: "It's not bad to drink." ”

While the quilt was placed on the table, Han Qi also wiped the bottom of the cup with his slender and white fingers, and then glanced at Xu Xiangwan as if unintentionally.

Xu Xiangwan knew that Han Qi could see that this tea was made by her, and when she heard his praise, her face suddenly became a little hot.

"If you like it, I'll wrap some for you and drink it later." Under Han Qi's gaze, Xu Xiangwan subconsciously said.

After finishing speaking, Xu Xiangwan regretted that she almost bit off her tongue, people just said a kind word, why did she send tea to others? These shoddy teas, only Shen Qianyu's eccentric guy will like them, where can a young and ambitious young master look at these things?

"Thank you very much." Han Qi suddenly hooked his lips and smiled, and his dark eyes bloomed with a bright light, which was fleeting.

Xu Xiangwan was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and it took a while to react, Han Qi really planned to ask for tea by himself, and suddenly his face was embarrassed, he grinned embarrassedly, and said stubbornly: "You're welcome." ”

After speaking, Xu Xiangwan hurriedly left the living room, leaving only Wulang, Xiao Jiu and Han Qi chatting in the living room.

After about a stick of incense, Xu Xiangwan used a dim sum box full of dried plum blossoms to take care of, and personally held it and handed it to Steward Xue.

Steward Xue took it cautiously, glanced at Han Qi, who was obviously smiling in the corner of his eyes, and then respectfully thanked Xu Xiangwan, not daring to fake the hand of others, and personally hugged it in his arms, as if holding a cherished treasure.

"Steward Xue doesn't have to be like this, these plum blossom teas are just something I have to do idlely, it's not a precious thing, if the seventh master likes it, I'll send someone to get it after drinking." Xu Xiangwan looked at the appearance of Steward Xue's baby, which was funny.

Steward Xue grinned and smiled, but he didn't dare to relax the movements in his hands, as if he was afraid that he would fall if he didn't pay attention.

After a while, Han Qi and Gorou chatted and laughed, and Guan Goro's demeanor and tone were not only more respectful than before, but also more close.

Although Han Qi's expression was still indifferent, his tone was obviously much kinder than before, and his unsmiling face was much gentler than before, and he even occasionally touched Xiao Jiu's head, just like a brother next door. (To be continued.) )
