After sending Shen Mingjun away, Zhou took Shen Xi and Lin Dai to the pharmacy, but saw that the food had already been put on the table, but the meal had not been opened for a long time.

"Sister, it's been a long time, why haven't you eaten yet?" Zhou asked in surprise.

Hui Niang smiled: "Wait for my sister to come, without my sister, there is really no taste of the New Year, in fact, it's good to be hungry for a while, looking at the table full of meals, it will taste more fragrant and flavorful for a while." ”

When Zhou heard this, he was moved with guilt, he was a little entangled with her husband at home just now, and felt that Hui Niang could come over late for dinner, but she didn't know that Hui Niang had been waiting for her.

"I've eaten, look ......" Zhou sat down, his face full of apologies, and he was even embarrassed to look up at Hui Niang.

"It's okay, just eat less, and it will be meaningful."

Hui Niang said, handed over the chopsticks, turned her head and happened to see Shen Xi's expectant gaze smiling, and also handed Shen Xi a pair of chopsticks.

"Thank you, auntie." Shen Xi said loudly.

Zhou Shi held the chopsticks, and Zhang Luo said: "Okay, okay, eat, if you don't eat again, your aunt will really be hungry." ”

After all, the New Year's Eve is to keep the New Year, Shen Xi actually ate a lot of dinner, and he couldn't last until the second half of the night if he didn't eat enough, but Hui Niang had dumplings here, he kept a special eye, and left a little place in his stomach, waiting to come and taste the taste of dumplings reads();.

This taste is problematic.

Maybe it's because I haven't eaten it for a long time, plus Hui Niang's craftsmanship is so good, this leek dumpling tastes delicious and delicious, it's wonderful, I want to eat one and want to eat the second, but Shen Xiwan didn't close his mouth at all.

"Didn't you eat it at home?" Zhou looked at Shen Xi's gobbling up and scolded, "Eating so much will kill you!" ”

Shen Xi stuck out his tongue. However, the temptation of food was too great, and he couldn't stop if he wanted to, so in the end, Hui Niang directly snatched Shen Xi's bowl and handed it to Xiu'er, who was more delicious:

"Xiaolang, you are growing your body, but you can't overeat, otherwise you will really eat well, I don't have the ability to compensate you for such a capable boy to your mother."

Shen Xi wiped his mouth and smiled, he wanted to stand up, but because he was overwhelmed, he couldn't stand up, so he just straightened up and sat back again.

Shen Xi couldn't eat anymore, so he could only watch others eat.

Hui Niang eats and chews slowly, she can't eat much for a long time, Xiu'er on the other side has no worries about eating, she has the largest amount of food in this family, but the rest of the maids are very careful, for fear that eating too much will make Hui Niang unhappy. According to the human tooth, the main family is afraid that people can eat too much, and generally those who eat too much are very lazy.

But they don't know that Hui Niang's concern for them is from the heart, and she will never have harsh requirements on food, but she spends the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.

After dinner, a few maids cleaned up the table, and Hui Niang called Zhou's upstairs.

When the two came, Zhou was holding a small wooden box in his arms, and Shen Xi expected that Hui Niang had sent gold and silver jewelry to Zhou again, otherwise Zhou would not have smiled from ear to ear.

"Xiaolang, come here."

Hui Niang beckoned Shen Xi over and stuffed the red envelope directly into his arms, just as Zhou turned his head to look at it, Shen Xi lamented in his heart, Hui Niang gave him the red envelope when she didn't pick anything else, and made it clear that she wanted Zhou to confiscate it.

Zhou said with a smile: "Han Wa'er, thank you Aunt Sun soon." ”

"Oh, thank you, auntie." Shen Xi cried and mourned, and he couldn't see any joy at all.

Hui Niang smiled, she saw the change in Shen Xi's expression, but she didn't say anything.

The Zhou family wanted to go back and put the wooden box away, and called Lin Dai to join him, but asked Shen Xi to stay.

When Zhou and Dai'er left the courtyard, Hui Niang secretly stuffed a red envelope: "Oh, take it to buy snacks to eat." ”

Shen Xi was not polite, he opened the red envelope and saw that the broken silver and copper plates were enough for one or two silver, and he could really buy a lot of snacks with this money. But Shen Xi's psychological age was earlier than the age of pursuing appetite, he smiled, and suddenly asked: "Auntie, you have prepared good things for us, what have you prepared for yourself?" ”

Hui Niang was at a loss for a moment.

At the end of the year, she was busy preparing gifts for her family, and she had to return gifts to the people of the Chamber of Commerce, and even Xie Yun'er, who she had just met, had a rich New Year's gift, but she ignored herself.

"Auntie, I have a small gift here, can I give it to you?" Shen Xi pretended to be mysterious.

Hui Niang smiled and nodded: "If you have a heart, you can do it...... Take a look at the gift. ”

Although she said "if you have a heart, you can do it", but she is still quite looking forward to it, she wants to know what kind of special gift Shen Xi can give her at a young age.

Shen Xi took out a rolled-up piece of drawing paper from his arms, which looked ordinary from the outside, but there seemed to be ink on the inside. Hui Niang thought to herself, did she write a few words of blessing?

When Hui Niang took the paper solemnly handed over by Shen Xi and opened it to take a look, she realized that it was not an auspicious word, but a portrait drawn by Shen Xi with charcoal.

Shen Xi's brushwork is exquisite, the outline of the sketch is clear, Hui Niang knows at a glance that she is painting herself, vivid, and seems to be more beautiful than herself in the mirror.

"Xiaolang, how did you draw it?" Although Hui Niang wanted to hide the joy in her heart, she couldn't help but cover her mouth with her slender hands, so excited that she almost cried.

Shen Xi said with a smile: "It's just that I see that you are busy on weekdays, but you are still very beautiful, so I will draw the image of the most beautiful aunt in my heart, and I am worried that my aunt will dislike the gift I gave too lightly and look down on it." ”

Hui Niang's eyes were filled with tears, and she quickly turned her head and wiped it with a handkerchief, she didn't expect to receive such a special gift in the New Year.

When she calmed down, she turned to look at Shen Xi, and said in a tone of great pity and pity: "Xiaolang, my aunt likes your gift very much." My aunt will hide it and take it out from time to time, okay? ”

Shen Xi felt that Hui Niang's tone was different from usual, and seemed to be trying her best to hide something. He was as wise as a torch in his two lives, of course he would not expose it, and immediately showed the nature of a child, and said with a smile: "Auntie, don't tell my mother, otherwise she will let me draw a picture, I really can't find that feeling." ”

"What does it feel?"

Zhou went home and hid the wooden box, and immediately folded it back with Lin Dai, just in time to hear Shen Xi's shouting.

Hui Niang hurriedly put the charcoal sketch into her long sleeves, smiled and replied, "It's okay, sister, I'm just gossiping with Xiaolang." ”

Zhou didn't suspect anything, and scolded: "This stinky boy knows how to fool around on weekdays...... I had to tidy up the room behind the printing workshop, and today I was going to go there to put some things, but when I opened the door, I almost didn't kill me, and I didn't know what he was doing in it. ”

Shen Xi grinned and said: "Mother, that's the laboratory that my aunt allocated to me, it's full of good things, don't touch it, if many things are put together, they will catch fire immediately, and it's not easy to keep them." ”

Shen Xi didn't say that it was okay, but when she said that Zhou's was even more angry, she was relieved a little because of Hui Niang's help and persuasion.

Waiting for the two families to sit down, Hui Niang asked Shen Xi to tell a story to a room of women.

This is almost a must-have program for the two families to get together during the New Year's holidays, not only the two little Loli and a few maids like it, but even Hui Niang and Zhou also like to listen to it.

"But I don't know what to say." Shen Xi thought about it with his head, but there were too many choices, and he didn't know how to choose for a while, so he shrugged his shoulders and said.

Hui Niang's gaze was soft and loving, her cheeks were slightly red, and she was shining in the beating lights, like a drunken beauty. narrowed her eyes slightly, and Hui Niang's eyes were a little more confused: "Let's talk about "Dream of Red Mansions", the story in it, aunt wants to hear it again." ”
