Chapter 100: Chinese New Year's Eve
The north wind blows the snow at the beginning of the fourth watch, and Jia Rui Tianjiao and the year is removed.
Half of Tu Su was still raised, and the grass in front of the lamp wrote a peach charm.
In the blink of an eye, it was Chinese New Year's Eve, and every household was busy pasting Spring Festival and preparing for the New Year.
It's just that because Queen Fang died not long ago, firecrackers can't be released, and this year has lost a lot of flavor.
In the Xu Mansion of Dinghai County, it is very lively.
Although you can't celebrate too much, you can still drink at home with the door closed.
As the head of the family, Xu Huaiyuan naturally issued a New Year's message.
For him, it was a dream.
The stupid son who used to be unbearable suddenly opened his mind and began to study.
This already made Xu Huaiyuan very pleased, after all, he didn't expect his son to be able to enter the Shiden Branch to seal his wife and son.
It is enough to be able to get a student.
Unexpectedly, his son turned out to be very intelligent, quite talented in reading, and made great progress in Confucianism after Mr. Bai Xushan became a teacher.
Lianzhong County, the government, and the hospital have become the only small three yuan in Ningbo Mansion in recent years, and they have earned enough face for the Xu family.
If it was placed half a year ago, Xu Huaiyuan would not even dare to think about it.
In addition to explaining with the blessing of his ancestors, Xu Huaiyuan really couldn't think of anything else.
What's even more rare is that his son has also been rewarded by the Son of Heaven, although there is no promise and just a word of appreciation, it is enough for Xu Huaiyuan to be happy.
This is really the smoke of the ancestral grave.
At the Hangzhou Poetry Conference, the son was even more sensational and won the title of the first genius in Ningbo.
Although this name does not have any real gain, it is pleasant to listen to.
In addition to reading, his son is also quite talented in business.
The Xu family did not run a bookstore originally, but it was suggested by his son to open it, and it turned out that the bookstore was indeed very profitable.
Although the total amount is not as good as that of grain and silk, the net income is more.
Xu Huaiyuan was moved, his son was really sensible.
Isn't what people want to do in this life is to be filial piety and promising?
The Xu family is not prosperous, Xu Huaiyuan is such a son as Xu Yan, and all his efforts are naturally poured into Xu Yan.
Now it seems to be worth it.
Father and son are filial piety, family harmony, what luxury does Xu Huaiyuan want?
If there must be a yes, it is that Xu Yan can get married earlier, give him a grandson, and let him experience the joy of being in the same house for three generations.
Now this matter is also on the agenda, and the son is engaged to the daughter of the Hong family. If nothing else, you will be able to get married in two or three years.
Beautiful, this day is so beautiful.
"Dad, you try this West Lake Longjing, it tastes great."
Xu Yan came to Xu Huaiyuan at some point, holding a hot tea in his hand.
"My son is really filial."
Xu Huaiyuan took the teacup with satisfaction and took a sip gently, only to feel that the aroma was overflowing.
"Although this tea is a little old, the taste is stronger."
Xu Yan said with a smile: "This is the tea collected by my grandfather, and I fried it myself at home, and it tastes naturally good." ”
"My son is still going to Hangzhou next year, right?"
Xu Huaiyuan put down the teacup, patted Xu Yan's shoulder and said, "Bring a few catties to Mr. Xushan then, his old man is very attentive to me." ”
"My son knows."
Xu Yan paused and said, "But there will be new tea next year." The taste of Ming Qian tea is much better than that of aged tea. ”
"Then give a few pounds the same."
"My teacher likes to drink more than tea. A few jars of Ningbo soju are more appetizing to his old man. ”
Father and son, you say a word to me, so unhappy.
At this moment, Xu Chen pushed the door in and sent a plate of pastries to Xu Huaiyuan and Xu Yan.
"Look at what you're talking about?"
"It's just small talk."
Xu Huaiyuan picked up a mung bean cake and took a bite gently.
"How's it going, how is the craftsmanship?"
Xu Chen asked expectantly.
"If you have a wife, what more can a husband ask for."
"Mother, I'll taste a piece too."
Xu Chen touched Xu Yan's head dotingly: "Silly child, my mother is making it for you to eat." ”
"Hmm..."
With a gentle bite, the mung bean cake melts in your mouth.
"This mung bean cake made by my mother tastes amazing."
"Are you two sweeter than whose mouth?"
Although he said so, Xu Chen was still very happy.
"My mother asked someone to make new clothes for you two, and you will try them later."
At the beginning of the new year, everything is renewed.
New Year's Season naturally requires new clothes.
The Xu family is naturally not short of money, they all pull the best lake silk, and invite the best tailors.
Naturally, this garment is not bad.
Of course, the person who wears clothes is also very important, like the Xu family father and son, who look good, will wear it very well.
"Thank you, mother."
Xu Yan said with a smile: "My son strives to grow taller every year, so that he can wear new clothes every year." ”
"You kid."
Xu Chen knew that his son was joking, and patted Xu Yan's head.
"Big brother, big brother help!"
In this moment of joy, an exclamation broke the silence.
Xu Yan was so familiar when he heard this voice, who was it if it wasn't Yang Pengju?
He has been staying at the Xu family these days, and he finally went back for a few days, why did he come again?
Today is Chinese New Year's Eve.
Sure enough, Yang Peng pushed the door and entered, hiding behind Xu Yan in a panic.
"Big brother, help, if the old man chases me back, I will be 'dead'."
Seeing that Yang Pengju was cowering and not joking, Xu Yan wondered: "Why would the good Shibo blame you?" ”
"Well, that's a long story."
Yang Pengju looked frustrated, swallowed a mouthful of foam and said, "Didn't I go home a few days ago?" The old man told me to read more all day long, which was really noisy, so I ran away from home in a fit of anger and went to live in Fangcui Building for a few days. ”
"Isn't this a green building?"
Xu Yan's expression changed when he heard this: "During the national funeral, you went to the Qinglou to find joy, no wonder Shibo was angry." ”
"Look at what the eldest brother said, I'm not stupid, I just avoided the old man, and nothing happened. Besides, no one saw it. ”
Yang Pengju said nonchalantly.
"This kind of thing is just in case. If someone sees that they report you, won't they all harm their family? ”
Xu Yanxin said that the little fat man's heart is really big enough, and during the national funeral, he stayed in the Qinglou overnight for a few days, which is definitely a big disrespectful crime.
"It's too late to say that... Big brother, you let me avoid the limelight first, and when the old man's anger is gone, I will go back to admit my mistakes and make amends. If he catches him now, his legs will have to be broken. ”
Xu Yan said in his heart that the tiger is poisonous and does not eat children, and what the little fat man said is too exaggerated.
Besides, today is Chinese New Year's Eve, and the father of the Yang family will not pick on today if he is idle and has nothing to do to beat his son.
"Dad, mother, what do you see?"
Xu Yan looked at Xu Huaiyuan and Xu Chen, seeking their opinions.
"Ahem..."
Xu Huaiyuan cleared his throat and said, "In that case, the nephew will stay in the mansion for a few days." ”
Xu Huaiyuan knows very well the temper of his friend Yang Wanan, if he really catches Yang Peng back, at least he will have to beat this bastard boy to lose a layer of skin.
