In a blink of an eye, the Spring Festival is coming, and the New Year in the palace is different from the people, although it is very lively, but it is not the same. In the folk, the night is not closed, the flaming lanterns, the frolicking children, the lively firecrackers and the noisy crowd. But the palace was full of lights and people, but it was not angry. Every day, there are endless prostrations, and there are mountains of etiquette and rules.

"Why is it sitting alone in this tuyere?" Ye Cangjue walked over from behind for some reason, and draped the felt on his body over Qi Shangyi's shoulder.

Qi Shangyi glanced back and said weakly: "Thank you, is there another minister's envoy here?" ”

"You don't like it?" Ye Cangjue sat down opposite Qi Shangyi, "I don't like it either." ”

"Huh?" Qi Shangyi thought that he had misheard, and looked up at Ye Cangjue.

Ye Cangjue looked at the frozen pond in the distance, "When I was a child, I sneaked out of the palace to watch other people celebrate the New Year, there were no beautiful clothes, no noble food, but the family around the fire roasted sweet potatoes could laugh very happily." ”

"Let's get out of the palace and take a walk." Qi Shangyi suddenly held Ye Cangjue's hand and said, "Take a good look at the feeling of the New Year." ”

"Huh?" Ye Cangjue looked at Qi Shangyi's smiling face and held his hand in a daze, and nodded slightly, "Okay." ”

Just do it, the two of them changed into their gorgeous clothes and left the palace.

"Why don't you go along?" The little monster jumped on Mo Qi's shoulder and said.

Mo Qi looked at the reclosed palace door and smiled, "Only that strange woman likes to be outside the palace, I want to go back to Qing'an Hall to enjoy the wine." Mo Qi turned around, and he saw the smile on Ye Cangjue's face, and he was never satisfied.

"Congratulations, congratulations." Qi Shangyi pulled the night trick, and when he met someone on the street, he would smile and say hello to the other party, and the other party would politely reply "Tongxi, Tongxi." ”

"Hey, look, those little guys over there are more New Year's money than who?" Qi Shangyi tugged on Ye Cangjue's sleeve and said.

"What is New Year's money?" Ye Cangjue asked.

"Huh?" Qi Shangyi looked at Ye Cangjue in disbelief, "You don't even know what New Year's money is?" ”

Ye Cangjue didn't speak, which means that he really didn't know, Qi Shangyi continued to explain: "The New Year's money is the money given by the elders to the younger generations during the New Year, wrapped in red paper, because children are most likely to be entangled by sneakiness, so use this to get rid of evil spirits, and at the same time, it is also a blessing to children." It's a pity that I don't have any New Year's money this year. ”

"My father and mother will also give me money for the New Year, but that is called a reward." Ye Cangjue said.

Qi Shangyi looked at Ye Cangjue's sad face, and reached out to pat him on the back, "There are people I don't know on the street, why don't we also find a family to pay New Year's greetings." ”

"New Year's greetings?" I don't understand the secret of the night again.

"Yes," Qi Shangyi said and pulled Ye Cangjue to a store, "First of all, we have to think about where to go to pay New Year's greetings, and secondly, we have to buy good gifts, whose house do you think we should go to to pay New Year's greetings?" If those ministers go to their homes, they will definitely worship and praise, and it is better not to go, but ......" Qi Shangyi turned his head to look at Ye Cangjue, "Do you know anyone else besides these officials?" ”

"Others?" Ye Cangjue thought for a while, "If the New Year's greeting is to visit relatives and friends, there really is one." ”

"Oh? Who is it? Qi Shangyi immediately became interested, and when he looked at the gifts he bought in Ye Cangjue, he immediately sank his face, "You just buy some pastries to pay New Year's greetings?" Do such unimportant relatives need to go to New Year's greetings? ”

"You'll know when you go, she likes to eat this." Ye Cangjue got into the carriage as he spoke, and as soon as the carriage pointed to the city gate, he went to a mountain.

"Your friend lives so far away." Qi Shangyi said.

"She likes quiet, so she lives in the mountains." Ye Cangjue said.

After getting out of the carriage and walking a little more mountain road, I saw a courtyard, "Have you arrived?" ”

"Hmm." Ye Cangjue nodded, and as he was talking, a cold wind blew, and a woman in white flew out of the woods on the side.

"I thought it was a chicken thief again, but it turned out to be you." The woman smiled when she saw Ye Cangjue, "Why are you free to come here today?" ”

"Come and greet the New Year." Ye Cangjue said as he lifted the pastry in his hand.

"Well, that's what it smells like." The woman took the pastry and sniffed, "Let's go inside." ”

"Ahh Suddenly there was a scream from Qi Shangyi in the room, and she stammered at the woman and said, "You...... You...... It's really his grandmother! ”

"Why, not like?" The woman who was called Grandma by Ye Cangjue smiled and put the pastries brought by Ye Cangjue into the pastry box.

"Not like, not at all." Qi Shangyi shook his head and said, "You look more like the sister of the Holy Lord." "Qi Shangyi looked at her, no matter how she looked, she didn't look like someone who could be a grandmother, these two wouldn't be joining forces to tease me, right?

"Grandma is my mother's aunt." Ye Cangjue explained on the side.

"And how old are you?" Qi Shangyi looked at this woman, and a sense of awe rose in his heart.

"Sixty? Or seventy? Grandma thought for a moment, "I don't remember much about it." ”

"Then your face ......"

"Huh...... This is to maintain a youthful appearance by relying on spiritual power," Grandma smiled as she put the fruits and pastries on the table and leaned towards Qi Shangyi, "Do you want to see me for what I am?" ”

"Well, no, that's good." Qi Shangyi hurriedly said with a smile.

Grandma smiled and stood up, "You sit down for a while, I'll go and bring some dry firewood in and make a stove, this weather is really going to be cold." ”

"Why have I never heard you mention this aunt?" Qi Shangyi looked at Ye Cangjue, she should be Ye Cangjue's only relative.

"Grandma likes to be quiet, and she doesn't want people to know about our relationship, so she told Gu not to come to her." Ye Cangjue said, "She is Lonely's only relative, so I think it should be more New Year's flavor to come here to pay New Year's greetings." ”

Just as Grandma came in with dry firewood, Qi Shangyi hurriedly smiled and said, "Grandma, let's have Chinese New Year's Eve dinner tonight, right?" ”

"Yes," said Grandma, putting down the wood in her arms and skillfully lighting the stove. "But I don't have those delicacies of the mountains and seas in the palace here."

"It's okay, then I'll help you knead the bread dumplings." Qi Shangyi said with a smile that the first thing to eat during the New Year is dumplings, and then other delicacies.

Ye Cangjue basically can't help because of his body, but Qi Shangyi won't let him sit alone, otherwise there will be no New Year's flavor, anyway, he is wearing gloves, and he can still do things like holding things.

"Well, this filling, you try the salty." Qi Shangyi picked up a little freshly mixed dumpling filling and put it in front of Ye Cangjue.

Ye Cangjue hesitated for a moment, and obediently took a sip, "It's a little light." ”

"Huh? Really? Qi Shangyi said and put the unfinished half spoonful of stuffing into his mouth, "Well, it's really a little, then add some salt." ”

In the kitchen behind her, Grandma lifted the curtain and looked at the two people who were happy in the room, smiled, and retreated back to the kitchen, "It seems that my trick has found someone to accompany me for a lifetime." ”
