Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, and the East China Sea fishery and various workshops have all let the helpers go home for the New Year.

The sky was a little overcast, and in the evening, large snowflakes began to fall from the dim sky.

Suddenly, the mountains, rivers, fields, and wharves were all shrouded in white snow.

"Auntie, I'm back."

Chen Si'er hurried and hurried, and finally returned to his hometown before Chinese New Year's Eve.

Due to the snow on the road, it usually took two days to travel in one day, if it weren't for the money in the money bag now, Chen Si'er was really afraid that he would freeze to death on the road.

"Si'er, Si'er, is that you?"

An old woman bent over and climbed down from the kang tremblingly.

"Fourth brother, fourth brother is back!"

A little girl rushed into Chen Si'er's arms.

"Fifth sister, help the fourth brother put these things down."

Chen Si'er carried a backpack issued by the East China Sea fishery on his back, and two large bags of items were hung on his shoulders.

"Auntie, I'm Si'er, I'm back." After Chen Si'er put down his things, he hurriedly went over and helped his mother.

Chen Si'er has six brothers and sisters, two sisters are married, one brother was fishing at sea in the early years, and the youngest brother also died, and now there are three people left in the family, if it is not really unbearable, he will not leave his sick wife and sister to go to sea.

"It's good to be back, it's good to be back." The old woman held Chen Si'er's arms with both hands, and tears flowed out directly, "It's become stronger, our fourth child has finally become stronger." ”

"Fourth brother, there is corn porridge cooked in the pot, you must be hungry, I'll go serve you a bowl."

"Don't worry, I have a lot of food in my package."

Hearing that her sister said that she would eat corn porridge at home during the Chinese New Year, Chen Si'er had a sour nose and hurriedly opened the package.

"This package is salted fish, which is pickled by our fleet in the sea and tastes very good; This pack is whale jerky, you must not have eaten it, right? There is also this bag of fresh frozen yellow croaker, that is, the weather is cold now, otherwise the yellow croaker caught in the future will really not be able to bring back. And this pack is ......"

Chen Si'er took out all kinds of food from the package one by one.

"Also, there are two woolen sweaters here, A-Niang and the fifth sister each wear one, but it's warm."

"Si'er, in the past few months, thanks to a few neighbors who have helped our mother, otherwise you may not even see your mother. You can keep two packs of these foods for your family, and share the rest with your neighbors, so that everyone can have a good New Year. ”

Chen Si'er's village is in the corner of Dengzhou Mansion, and the changes that have taken place in Wendeng County have not yet been transmitted here, and most of the village households are still living in poverty.

"Mother, don't worry, you don't have to starve in the future, His Royal Highness the King of Chu has come to Dengzhou, Si'er is now doing things for His Royal Highness the King of Chu, wait for another year, I will buy a small courtyard in Wendeng County, and take you and the fifth sister to live."

As for dividing most of the things he brought back to his neighbors, Chen Si'er was completely in favor.

In a sense, the fact that I have been able to survive to this day is also the result of the help of my neighbors.

After letting the fifth sister put a fish into the pot to stew, Chen Si'er quickly went to give other food to the neighbors.

At this time, every family knew that Chen Si'er was back and knew that he was out.

"Si'er, you told your uncle, is there really no danger in going to sea?"

"Of course, we can't say that there is no danger, but the fishing vessels in the East China Sea are very large and stable in the sea."

"Is your salary really as high as you say? Do you still have meat to eat? The landlord's family is not so good, right? ”

"Uncle, don't worry, everything I said is true, Yang Qiwa at the end of the village also came back today, we are all fishing in the East China Sea, his treatment is better than mine, if you don't believe it, you can go over and ask him when you turn around."

"Si'er, uncle is discussing something with you, can you bring your brother with you after the year?"

"No problem, we are always recruiting people in the East China Sea Fisheries. Listen to our Chu master Bo said, after the beginning of spring, the shipbuilding workshop will have more manpower, and craftsmen with craftsmanship are even more popular. ”

……

Wendeng County Ya.

Li Kuan sat on the main seat, smiled and raised his wine glass, "Come, everyone has worked hard during this time, this king respects everyone with a glass." ”

Although Cheng Chumo and the others all bought a yard near the county government to live, on the day of the New Year, Li Kuan still invited all of them to his place.

In the entire lobby, three tables were set up, and people who were close to Li Kuan were arranged together.

Even the maids Qing'er and Yun'er have their own separate table.

"Lord Wang, it's not me who brags about it, there are not many people who can make me admire it silently, Lord Wang is definitely one of them, this bowl of wine, I will do it first as a respect."

"Since I was a child, my grandfather has hardly praised me; But a few days ago, I came to the house, and my grandfather actually praised me for the first time. ”

"And me, and me. The gang in Chang'an City don't like to take me to play together, just a few brothers look up to me, and Fang Yiai will never forget it in this life and this life. ”

Several teenagers are spending the New Year alone for the first time, and their feelings have rarely become delicate.

"Haha~ You're welcome! Everyone is working hard for the prosperity of Datang, come, toast together! ”

"Cheers!"

"Yesterday, Zixia walked around the street, and felt that the faces of the people of Wendeng were full of smiles, and when I left Chang'an, I heard that Wendeng was a disaster area, and it was all thanks to the prince to have such a big change, and Zixia also gave the prince a cup."

During this time, Zixia felt that it was the most relaxing time in her life.

Although Li Kuan did not express his attitude now, everyone in the palace respected him very much, as if he was the hostess.

It's a really good feeling!

However, Zixia is happy, and some people are not necessarily happy.

is like Qing'er on the table next to her, when she saw her prince and Zixia bowing her head and whispering there, her face became very ugly.

"Sister Qing'er, I'll give you a drink."

Yun'er sat next to her, naturally noticing Qing'er's changes.

During this time, she also understood Qing'er's special status by Li Kuan's side, so she would flatter Qing'er intentionally or unintentionally.

The background of her own girl is destined to become the princess of Chu; The best result is a concubine, in the noble family, the status of the concubine is really not higher than that of a personal maid.

"Drink it yourself, I'll take care of the prince to rest later."

Stretching out her hand not to hit the smiling person, Qing'er replied a little depressed.

The wind and frost of heaven and earth are exhausted, and the weather is harmonious.

New years are added, and spring is full of old mountains and rivers.

The plum willow is fragrant, and the pine fence is old.

Tu Sucheng was drunk and laughed at Baiyunwo.

Li Kuan's side slowly began to have his own people.
