said that Gong Xiru was invited by Ling Yi to sit in the side hall, and when he saw the latter, he was full of questions and didn't know where to start.

Ling Yi generously invited him to sit down, and asked people to serve refreshments, and didn't ask Gong Xiru what he was doing, why he would climb over the wall, just looked at the latter with a smile and said: "You came to me at this time, I'm afraid that the elders in the family will say that I am a bad girl." ”

Gong Xiru was slightly stunned, only then did he react, he had long regarded the Hou Mansion as his home, and the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was eaten in Bihetang without any choice, just hurriedly eating, he came out to watch the Lantern Festival, and now he didn't expect to go back to accompany the elders to keep the New Year.

"At this time, I'm afraid it's too late to go back, but let them catch me, I'm just-I just don't want to go back, stay here with you, feel comfortable."

Ling Yi's eyebrows raised slightly, but she still didn't ask.

Gong Sheng was curious, this was the first time he had heard Gong Xiru say such undisguised words, could this be an enlightened brain?

Zhi Yu walked in at this time and said in Ling Yi's ear: "The red envelopes of the maids and maids in the courtyard have all been distributed, and the mothers and housekeepers who are in charge have also been rewarded, and there is nothing missing." ”

Ling Yi nodded with satisfaction, "Grandmother is old, you let someone pass a message and ask her not to guard it, I will keep my grandmother's share." ”

Weaving Fan stood next to him, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but wonder: "Isn't the eldest lady going to take a break—"

Before she finished speaking, she was glared at by Zhi Yu, her eyes rolled, she immediately reacted, and quickly shut up.

"The maid will send a message to Guiyuan." Zhi Yu said respectfully, and then retreated and arranged for someone to pass the word to Guiyuan.

Gong Xiru heard that she was going to keep the New Year. Concerned: "Keeping the New Year is just a meaning, the intention is fulfilled, if you really keep it at ease for a night." I'm afraid I won't be able to go out tomorrow. ”

But whoever keeps the New Year's Day until dawn on the first night, and then he must sleep until the afternoon, and the first day of the new year is the day of leaving the household.

Relatives and friends, no matter how far apart, everyone will choose a place to gather on this day. Children can get New Year's money from various elders, and as for adults, it's nothing more than talking about trivial things such as family life.

this day. If a married daughter is favored by her husband, she can return to her mother's house with her husband.

Although Ling Fu did not have a daughter who was married, he had many relatives. And Ling Shandao is the sister-in-law of the long house. Naturally, everyone else is moving closer to him, and without thinking about it, he can know how lively the Ling Mansion in the first year of junior high school is.

Gong Xiru hesitated for a moment before asking, "Do you like to eat rice cakes?" ”

"Rice cakes?!" Ling Yi was puzzled, but still nodded and said, "I deliberately made a lot of kitchen yesterday, and I didn't eat it in one day today, what's the matter, didn't you bring me rice cakes?" ”

She was just joking. Who knew that Gong Xiru's hand reached into his arms and paused. I don't know whether to take it out or put it down.

"Did you really bring rice cakes?" Ling Yi smiled a little, "Take it out and let me taste it, and I'll see if the taste is too bad." ”

A touch of discomfort flashed on Gong Xiru's face, and he slowly took out an oiled paper bag from his arms and opened it, there were three cakes lying quietly inside, but his appearance looked a little ugly and weird.

"This is our Hou Ye-" Before Gong Sheng finished speaking, he was glanced at by Gong Xiru, and that look seemed to tell him that if he dared to say more than half a sentence, then go back and pull out his tongue.

Gong Sheng was so frightened that he didn't dare to speak, so he could only keep his mouth shut, staring at the rice cake in Gong Xiru's hand and holding back his smile.

Ling Yi's cleverness made her know that this rice cake was made by Gong Xiru herself, not to mention what it looked like, it was this intention, and it was also valuable, after all, men were proud of the battlefield, and as for the kitchen, this belonged to women.

"Thank you, then I'll try it."

Ling Yi couldn't see the slightest hint of ridicule in his eyes, which made Gong Xiru's heart relax a little.

He didn't actually plan to give the rice cake to Ling Yi, and he didn't even think of making rice cakes. Gong Sheng told him this method, and the latter repeatedly assured that he had heard about it from the mouth of the weaving fan, and Ling Yi liked to eat all kinds of pastries.

Every family has to give gifts during the New Year, this is the case in the officialdom, and even more so among friends, but Gong Xiru thinks about what she can give to Ling Yi, gold, silver and jewelry must not be what she likes, not to mention that she is not lacking, it would be best if she could give something meaningful.

This meaningful thing was not the extremely ugly rice cake he was holding in his hand now, but he was busy in the kitchen for two hours, and wasted a few lumps of noodles to make these three barely decent ones, and he was reluctant to throw them away, and it was not easy to give them to Ling Yi to eat, so he was really entangled.

"I-" Unable to find words for a while, Gong Xiru could only barely look at the rice cake in his hand.

Ling Yi didn't think about it, and took a piece, regardless of whether it was cold, hot, raw, cooked.

"It's a little ugly, but the taste is acceptable." She laughed.

The corners of Gong Xiru's mouth suddenly opened, looking very happy.

Gong Sheng stood a little farther away, unwilling to disturb the two masters talking.

Weaving Fan stood next to him at some point, with relief and envy in his tone, and muttered to himself: "The eldest lady and the Hou Ye are really a good match, and I don't know when they will be able to achieve positive results." ”

Gong Sheng smiled: "Our Hou Ye is ready at any time, but your young lady doesn't know what to think, everyone can see what Hou Ye thinks about your young lady, but Miss Ling herself pretends to be confused." ”

The weaving fan hit him on the arm with his elbow, gritted his teeth and said, "If you say bad things about my master again, I will twist your arm off and use it as a pole." ”

Gong Sheng grinned in pain, but there was a bit of a smile in his tone: "You can't get married like this." ”

"I can't marry or not, and I can do anything with you." The weaving fan pouted angrily.

"Well, I'll tell you about the masters.

If you want me to say, these two people are separated, one is more serious than the other, one is more serious than the other, and the other is smarter, but these two people, together and doing things like children.

It's just a few rice cakes, you don't know how long Hou Ye has been tossing in the kitchen, that seriousness, more serious and nervous than last year's battlefield, it is not decent, it is a pity to throw it away, and you can't take it out, and only your young lady does not dislike it, and that thing dares to eat it in her mouth. ”

Weaving Fan squinted at him, "What do you mean, why do you speak with thorns?" ”

Gong Sheng said with a smile: "Where do I have thorns, I mean these two masters are matched, and only when the two of them are together, they are like a teenager, they don't find out by themselves, people say that only in front of the person they really like, they will be defenseless, and they will show their true temperament, these two masters are simple." ”

I love to hear this, and he said: "I don't have any wishes this year, I just hope that the eldest lady will find a good home." (To be continued.) )
