This is Xie Zhen's first year in Shangjing.

It seems a bit inaccurate to say this, because Xie Zhen of that life has been here for several years, but whatever! Xie Zhen is always grateful that she can live again.

Mr. Xie and Mrs. Xie have moved back to live three days in advance, saying that although the two Xie mansions are very close, it is more lively to celebrate the New Year in the same mansion.

Although Old Lady Xie didn't say it, anyone could see that the old man was very happy.

On this day, Xie Zhang and Xie Yu went to the study early in the morning, saying that they wanted to improvise a poem for the New Year, and Xie Zhen was not allowed to follow.

Xie Hao wasn't very interested in what they were going to do, but the more they hid it from her like this, the more she felt bored, and besides, with the third brother's temperament, how could he do such a thing as improvising poetry?

But since they didn't want her to get involved, she naturally wouldn't be bored with herself, so she just turned around and went to find Mrs. Xie to see if there was anything she could help with.

Mrs. Xie is directing people to post Spring Festival couplets, this thing has to be done once a year, those clumsy subordinates just can't practice make perfect, and every time they post it, it can cause Mrs. Xie to get angry.

You must know that Mrs. Xie was not originally a person who got angry so easily.

Before Xie Hao got closer, she heard Mrs. Xie's angry and distressed voice.

"Can't you be careful? This is the old man's handwriting, and no matter how many people ask for it, they can't ask for it! Don't break the paper! ”

"And you! A little to the left! Heck, I'm not saying you stand a little to the left, I'm saying you put the paper in your hand a little bit further to the left...... Oops, that's too much again! Come back a little more! Oops, why are you so stupid? Come down, come down, you go up! ”

When Xie Zhen approached, he happened to see a person holding a ladder to climb up, still holding a roll of red paper in his hand.

As soon as Mrs. Xie saw her, she greeted her very warmly and said, "Zhen'er, come on, help the eldest aunt see if the Spring Festival couplets here are crooked?" ”

Xie Zhen softly and softly agreed. So he walked up to her and looked at the Spring Festival couplets that had been pasted seriously.

"Don't you talk about it if you don't read it?" Xie Zhen read out the flying words on the couplet softly, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed, "This is the Spring Festival couplet written by my grandfather?" ”

Where is this like a Spring Festival couplet!

Mrs. Xie thought it was very good. As long as there is a handwritten word written by the old man, it is excellent!

"What are you still doing? Hurry up and get up! Mrs. Xie urged the next humane.

The man then climbed up the ladder tremblingly.

Xie Zhen frowned slightly.

The man finally climbed to the top of the ladder, so he turned his head and looked down, his face suddenly turned pale, and his body trembled even more. Even the ladder seemed to be trembling.

Xie Zhen was shocked in her heart, and said in a lost voice: "Quick, hold on to the ladder!" Help him down! ”

When everyone saw that the ladder was shaking, they subconsciously wanted to dodge, but after listening to her instructions, they had to step forward and hold on to the ladder.

"What's wrong?" Mrs. Xie also saw the abnormality of that subordinate at this moment.

Xie Zhen quickly explained: "I don't know, but I guess he should be afraid of heights in the past, anyway, let him come down first!" ”

The trembling subordinate climbed down the ladder with the help of everyone, and as soon as his feet touched the ground, the whole person immediately collapsed to the ground.

"Oops!" Mrs. Xie suddenly let out an exclamation. It only startled everyone.

saw Mrs. Xie rush over and grabbed the subordinate, saying, "What about the Spring Festival couplets?" What about Spring Festival couplets? ”

Only then did the man remember that he was still holding a scroll of Spring Festival couplets in his hand, and his face suddenly became even more ugly.

After he took out the crumpled red paper from under his fart/thigh, Mrs. Xie's face also became very gloomy.

"You said you! You are afraid of heights, why don't you say it! What else are you climbing up there for? She scolded angrily.

Xie Zhen had no choice but to step forward to support her and persuade her softly, and Mrs. Xie's anger was suppressed.

But the couplets have undoubtedly been ruined.

"What a good thing that is!" Mrs. Xie looked at the crumpled red paper in her hand and sighed heavily.

Xie Zhen thought about it, reached out and took the paper in her hand, shook it open, and saw the six big words "Don't disturb those who pat on the back".

…… Don't mention anything that you don't read, don't disturb those who pat on the back......

Her grandfather was really talented. Let her little one be ashamed!

"Auntie."

Xie Zhen settled down and called softly: "I have a way to remedy it, but this matter." Don't mention it to anyone! ”

Mrs. Xie knew that Xie Zhen was smart, so when she heard this, she felt like she had taken a reassuring pill, and only said: "If you have a way, then it is really great, are you going to beg your grandfather to write another one?" ”

Xie Zhen didn't say yes or no, only smiled. said: "I also asked my aunt to cut a red paper of the same length for me." ”

What's so hard about that? Mrs. Xie quickly handed over a cut piece of red paper to Xie Zhen.

Xie Zhen took the red paper and hid in his study.

It was Nan'er who was waiting for the grinding.

Xie Hao picked out a wolf pen, then moistened the ink carefully, pondered for a moment, and then waved it on the red paper.

Shoot, horse, fart, person, don't, disturb

She wrote carefully word by word, and every stroke was very forceful—the words written by Mrs. Xie were very powerful.

Xie Zhen finally finished writing, and when she dried the ink and picked it up, she felt that she could barely fool the past.

In fact, her handwriting was originally very similar to that of Mrs. Xie, but Mr. Xie's handwriting was more atmospheric and smoother than hers.

These are the momentum accumulated from perennial writing, even if Xie Zhen has the intention to imitate it, it is not something that can be imitated, but as long as Mrs. Xie doesn't pay attention, then the couplet she wrote can still deceive others!

Mrs. Xie really couldn't see that this couplet was actually from Xie Zhen's hand, but she begged Mrs. Xie to write it again, so she was more careful to let her subordinates be careful and carefully pasted it next to the door.

Finally pasted the Spring Festival couplets, Mrs. Xie went to Zhang Luo for other things, she was going to the kitchen to see how the rice cakes were steaming, and Xie Zhen couldn't help, so she found an excuse not to go, and only asked Nan'er to help.

Xie Zhen has become the most idle person in the house now, because even the little beggar San'er helped the people in the house to move some flower pots around the yard today.

But the people looking for her soon came, and there were still three groups of people.

The first one to come was the maid next to Yu Jiuniang. I came to give Xie Zhen a gift for Yu Jiuniang, Xie Zhen accepted the painting scroll with a plum blossom pinned to it, thought about it, and asked the maid to stay for a moment. He returned to the study and wrote a word for Yu Jiuniang, but it was not good to ask the maid to bring back a fluttering piece of paper.

Xie Zhen had no choice but to come out again and say to the maid: "You go back and tell your young lady, and when I frame it, I will visit you in person." ”

The maid didn't know she was writing. It was only when she didn't understand these people that she was unprepared to say these words, but she didn't think it was strange, she just smiled softly and nodded to her, and went back with a food box - it was Xie Zhen who felt that it was a little rude for people to go back empty-handed, so she asked Zhu Jin to pack a freshly made snack for her to take back.

The second one came was a little eunuch in the palace, who was Yan Huai's attendant. At this moment, Xie Zhen couldn't help but carefully consider the return gift. She walked around her study, and the most precious thing was the four treasures of the study that Mrs. Xie gave her on her last birthday...... However, if she wants to give it away, she is reluctant...... Xie Hao very simply dismissed the idea of sending them out.

Since you are reluctant to give away good things, you can only start with the word Qi.

Xie Zhen rolled her eyes and ordered Zhu Jian to quietly call San'er over.

San'er didn't know why the young lady was secretly looking for him. He also wanted him to come quietly, but he had always been very good at it secretly and quietly, so he was still a little excited as if he felt that he was going to do something big, and came quietly.

Xie Zhen asked him if there were any special flowers among the flowers he moved here today.

Special flowers? San'er touched his head and thought about it carefully, and after thinking for a long time, he patted his head and said, "There is really a pot, I heard what it is...... What the...... Scratching the beauty face, well, that's the name, because I think it's a strange name. That's just remembering. ”

Xie Zhen was overjoyed in her heart, and whispered: "You go and bring a basin to me, well, find a beautiful basin and put it in it first." Remember, don't be seen, especially not by the father-in-law at the door, you know? ”

"Father-in-law?" San'er was suddenly a little excited, and said excitedly: "That's my father-in-law?" ”

He's never seen his father-in-law look like before!

It's not a good thing that this kid is so curious, in case he can't help but open the window to look at the father-in-law. Isn't it offending and revealing again?

She had no choice but to sink her face and pretend to be vicious: "I will explain your affairs, you have to do it before you can play, otherwise you will have to go hungry tonight!" ”

As soon as he heard that he was going to be hungry, San'er had no curiosity, so he hurriedly retreated with a smiling face and moved flowers.

San'er is quite capable of doing things, and the flower pots he found are also very good-looking, and I don't know where he found them.

Xie Zhen then handed over the pot of "scratching the face of the beauty" to the waiter and asked him to take it back to Yan Huai, especially exaggerating that this flower is particularly difficult to find in this season.

The father-in-law was so fooled by her that he barely took the precious flower back with offering......

The third person who came finally didn't make Xie Hao so nervous.

It was Ye Xunhuan who came.

When Xie Hao saw her, her whole person relaxed, pulled her and said, "Shouldn't you have brought a gift for someone today?" ”

Ye Xunhuan looked at her with a smile.

Xie Zhen didn't wait for her to answer, and immediately said: "No matter whose gift you bring, don't take it out yet, drink a few cups of tea with me first, I almost didn't get tired today." ”

Ye Xunhuan doesn't like to socialize with people, because he knows the cumbersomeness and trouble involved, so he sympathizes with Xie Zhen very much, so he really didn't take out the gift she brought first, but was very obedient to accompany Xie Zhen to drink tea.

Drinking tea was just an excuse Xie Hao used to evade and delay, she really hoped that Ye Xunhuan could forget about giving gifts, because this time she really couldn't think of what gift to give back to that person......

Why do people have to give gifts? It has to be so troublesome and so nerve-wracking......

Xie Hao sighed a little depressed.

But of course, Ye Xunhuan couldn't forget the gift she brought, so after drinking two cups of tea, she put the gift she brought for Yan Ming on the table.

Xie Zhen doesn't drink tea anymore.

"What is it?" She didn't even bother to dismantle it, so she asked Ye Xunhuan very simply.

Ye Xunhuan said: "It seems to be a paperweight. ”

"Oh." Xie Zhen nodded, this gift is okay, it won't be too exaggerated, and it won't be so much that she can't find a return gift.

"Look, what should I go back to?" She said casually.

Ye Xunhuan said: "As you please." ”

"Oh." Xie Hao nodded again, and a bad thought suddenly popped up in her heart, so she beckoned to Zhu Jin and said, "Come, bring your newly embroidered money bag!" ”

Zhu Jin was stunned for a moment, and then reacted to what she said, her face immediately turned red, and she stomped her feet and said, "Miss, people embroider a sachet." ”

"Sachet? You embroidered it so big, I thought it was a money bag! Xie Zhen sneered: "Okay, okay, no matter what, you can just take it!" ”

Do you want to give her embroidered sachet to His Royal Highness the Grand Prince as a return gift? Oh, how can you be so shy!

Zhu Jin then squirmed and went to get it.

Xie Zhen's mood finally improved.

Ye Xunhuan hooked the corners of her mouth, and the hand that was caressing the desktop was gently raised, and a small box slipped out of her cuffs.

"It's mine." She said softly and gently pushed the small box in front of Xie Hao.

Xie Zhen was stunned, and when she came back to her senses, she really wanted to scream.

This is the first time Xunhuan has given her a gift!

She couldn't help but grab the box and open it.

A silver hairpin lay quietly in the box.

It is an old silver hairpin, and the style and texture are very outdated.

Xie Zhen's eyes were red.

She will never mistake this hairpin, this is the most cherished hairpin in that life, it is the last thing left by Xunhuan's biological mother to Xunhuan, she still remembers the day Xunhuan got married, and only this hairpin was left on the simple bun!

Is she going to give her this hairpin now? Xie Hao almost wanted to cry.

Ye Xunhuan's expression was a little cramped and uneasy.

"It's not a precious thing." She whispered, "If you don't like it, don't wear it." ”

Xie Zhen hurriedly said: "No, it's not that I don't like it, but you gave me this hairpin, what should you do?" ”

Now it was Ye Xunhuan's turn to be stunned, because she didn't expect Xie Hao to know the origin of the hairpin, she felt that Xie Hao's question was a little strange, "What should I do?" I don't wear a hairpin. ”

She said it very naturally, and Xie Zhen couldn't help but want to laugh again.

She held the hairpin in her hand tighter, nodded vigorously and said, "I know, I will accept your hairpin, and when you get married in the future, I will buy you a dowry!" ”

…… Dowry? What's going on? Ye Xunhuan was dumbfounded. (To be continued.) )
