Volume 1 Chapter 110 New Year's Gift
After the cake was delivered, the renewal payment was settled, and Qiao Xi took her leave.
The most unique thing about Mrs. Shen's birthday banquet this time is the six-layer cake, the birthday celebration of the hundred sons, and the immortal pine, all of which are telling the congratulations on auspicious wishes, and the old lady Shen is even more smiling, and she trusts the cake of the cookie house even more, and is full of praise for her son and daughter-in-law.
The people who congratulated the birthday also said all kinds of auspicious and beautiful words, so that the smile on the corner of Mrs. Shen's mouth never disappeared.
At the end of the banquet, he specially called his son to him, "Son, I'm really happy to be my mother." Don't forget to tip the cookie house. ”
"Mother, don't worry, my son knows what to do." The cookie house really gave him a big surprise, so that his mother was decent, and when his son's face was also bright, look at how envious others are of his mother, even with him full of envy and jealousy, thank you too much.
Shen Jiacheng asked people to prepare a rich thank you gift the next day, and asked Lao Qian to send it to Qiao's family in person, and specially instructed Lao Qian to make sure Qiao's family accepted the thank you gift.
Lao Qian fortunately did not disgrace his life and completed what Master Shen explained.
The cake at Mrs. Shen's birthday banquet was quickly spread to everyone in the streets, and she was even more awe-inspiring about the cookie house.
More than half a month after the reopening of the cookie house, the pace of the Chinese New Year is getting closer and closer. The shops in the streets and alleys have hung up red silk, and they have begun to have the atmosphere of the New Year.
Qiao Xi was rarely idle, and planned to make a new dress for the New Year for the family this time, last year's clothes were really bought in ready-to-wear stores, and there were not many characteristics, the only thing was brand new and not shabby.
This time, she plans to use the best fabrics to make clothes for them personally, and the pigments will be the same, and when she goes out, others will know that they are a family, and the three brothers, sisters, sisters and brothers will definitely attract the attention of many people.
The original contract with Ruyi Shop also expired, and after that, she could open a shop by herself, and she even thought of a name, so it was called Linglong Pavilion.
But now I am still in a hurry, the shop that the eldest brother bought when he participated in the government test in Liaoyun Mansion played a role, and the shop was implemented in advance, and what he wanted to open in the future still needs to worry about whether the shop can be found.
After getting along for so long, Jun Lichen likes to stick to Qiao Xi more and more, almost everywhere Qiao Xi is, he can see him, even he doesn't know what it is for.
What's even more exaggerated is that a certain person who has always been away from the kitchen, suddenly didn't know if his brain was pumping or showing off, and he actually asked Qiao Xi to teach him how to cook.
As soon as he made this request, Qiao Xi was so frightened that it could be said that his soul was scattered, and he was stunned for a long, long time before he woke up, staring at Jun Lichen with an expression that you are not sick, and asked cautiously: "Young Master Su, are you sure you didn't say the wrong thing?" ”
When Jun Lichen found out what he had said, it was too late, as soon as the words came out, he would do what he said, and he couldn't be a person who didn't believe in his words, he was a little annoyed, but he still stiffened his neck and responded: "I didn't say the wrong thing." "I made my own request, and I had to bleed to complete it.
He must have opened it in the wrong way today, how could he suddenly say such a thing to the little girl, this is not lifting a stone to hit his own feet, it hurts, it really hurts, it hurts to the bones.
It was this attempt that made Jun Lichen grow up, and whenever he had time, he was by Qiao Xi's side, whether it was in the air or surrounded by his breath, he could think of him even when he had a meal, and he appeared in front of her all the time.
In the face of such a sticky and unshaken Jun Lichen, Qiao Xi expressed her helplessness, she couldn't accept it.
But this is all for later, it depends on the present.
"Since you said it, you can't give up halfway." Qiao Xi likes to do things from beginning to end, who dares to give up halfway with her, there is no second chance for her. The road was sealed in one go.
"Definitely not." In this way, Jun Lichen lived a hellish life for three days, although it was bitter, tired and uncomfortable, but on the whole, the result was good, and the three days still made people see some results, in the face of Qiao Xi's praise, Jun Lichen smiled like a carefree child.
As the New Year approaches, Jun Lichen is becoming more and more melancholy, he is going back, and after he goes back, he will be the high-ranking prince again, looking at those false faces.
"Young Master, when do you plan to go back?" The cool breeze has been asking the same question for the past two days, time can not be delayed any longer, from here to the capital, it will take a full half a month, if it is one day late, they will not have to rest on the road, they must rush day and night to arrive in the capital on the day of the Chinese New Year's Eve.
"Tonight." Jun Lichen knew that he couldn't delay it any longer, but he really didn't want to leave, but he had to leave.
After dinner, everyone sat in the flower hall and chatted for a while before returning to their rooms.
In the middle of the night, Jun Lichen's room moved, and he quietly opened the door, and the cool breeze was already waiting outside the door. "Young Master."
"You go outside and wait first, and I'll come when I go." Last time, he could say parting words in person, but this time he couldn't, he was afraid that he would not leave for a while.
Qiao Xi's room was quiet, Jun Lichen gently opened the door, came to the bed lightly, and quickly put a little on Qiao Xi's sleeping hole, making her sleep more deeply.
Staring at the little face that looked very immature in the moonlight, a sense of satisfaction swelled in his heart, he took off the jade pendant on his body and stuffed it into Qiao Xi's hand, holding her hand and gently kissing it, "Girl, wait for you to grow up." At first, I didn't understand why I liked to stick to Qiao Xi so much, but then Qiao Song's words made him suddenly, only if he liked her, he would want one to stick to her and possess her.
Reflecting on his behavior, isn't it in response to Qiao Song's words, there are so many girls in the capital, he avoids them like snakes and scorpions, but it is different for her.
At first, she was just curious because she could grow watermelons, and with a little temptation, she handed over the strawberry seeds in her hand to see if she could grow them, but she didn't expect them to be planted successfully, and they were sold for a high price.
The later getting along made his eyes fall on her, and he was not merciful to deal with the people who bullied her, and he made people doubt his life.
Although she is still young, he doesn't want to miss it, maybe on the day he leaves, some people find her good, he has to start first, first put people into his own hands, emotional things can be cultivated slowly, they are still young now, some are time, can afford to consume, and can afford to wait.
Qiao Xi was given a lifetime by a shameless person in her sleep, always sticking to her like a kraft candy, she couldn't get rid of it, and she was almost so angry that she vomited blood.
How could this man do such a thing, with her consent? There will never be an answer to this one.
"Little girl, grow up quickly." After speaking, he took out a letter in his arms and put it next to his pillow, and reluctantly turned to leave.
When she woke up the next day, Qiao Xi found that there was an extra letter next to her pillow, sat up from the bed suddenly, and when she was about to get the letter, she found that there was a jade pendant in her palm, which was warm to the touch, she didn't pay too much attention to the jade pendant, she threw it on the bed, opened the envelope, looked at the letter, and after reading the letter, Qiao Xi was angry with the contents inside, what is this, why was she inexplicably married.
I was yelling in my heart: 'Su Lichen, you get back for me and make it clear for me'. MA's, what does it mean that you can't be hooked up with other men, what does it mean to think about him all the time, who does he think he is~~~
Ah~~~~~ Qiao Xi couldn't get angry with people, so he could only take the letter to get angry, threw the letter on the ground, and stepped on it a few times, and finally trampled the letter directly, and the letter directly became unrecognizable.
He opened the door and walked out in a huff.
I'm angry with her, I'm angry with her, Su Lichen, you have a kind, don't appear in front of her in the end, otherwise she will definitely give him a lifelong unforgettable memory, see if he dares to ignore the private decision, when she is muddy, Su Lichen, you wait for me.
"Ah sneeze, Ah sneeze~~~" Jun Lichen didn't know how many sneezes along the way, which made Liang Feng think that the prince was sick, otherwise how could he sneeze so much.
"Master, are you okay, do you want to see a doctor?" It's not a way to keep fighting like this, so you have to treat it.
"No, keep going." At this time, the little girl should see the letter and jade pendant he left, and the little girl will definitely be so angry that she jumps to her feet, which he expected, and he can't tell how to scold him behind his back. People don't all say that beating is kissing and scolding is love, the more fierce she scolds, the more she likes it, scold, scold, anyway, he won't lose a piece of meat. Chase Yo Literature
He was worried that if she didn't scold and ignore those things and what he said, that was what he should be anxious about.
Liang Feng looked at his own prince with a strange face, and always felt that there was something strange about the prince, but he couldn't tell what was going on.
Shi Ziye didn't say it, he didn't know what to say about one of his subordinates, in short, Shi Zi Ye had subverted his image in Liang Feng's heart, especially the matter of cooking in the kitchen, which scared half of his soul off.
"Little sister, Su Gongzi is gone, did I tell you?" He got up in the morning and came to the flower hall to see the letter on the table, only to know that Su Gongzi had left last night.
"Nope." Qiao Xi was angry, and his tone of voice was full of gunpowder.
"What's wrong with you?" Qiao Song immediately heard that something was wrong and hurriedly asked.
"It's okay, people just leave, why bother so much."
"I also said it's okay, oh~~ I know, it must be Su Gongzi who didn't tell you and didn't mess with you, maybe people were afraid that we would be sad, so they left without saying hello. But he still left us a letter, okay, don't be angry. Qiao Song's mind turned, and he immediately grasped the key point and began to persuade his sister.
"I don't bother to pay attention to him, just leave if I like."
"Yes, yes, ignore him, ignore him. Come to eat, eat. Qiao Song took the xiaolongbao she liked to eat and put it on a plate.
After breakfast, there was nothing to do, the more Qiao Xi thought about it, the more angry he became, the more angry he became, so he decided to find something to do, so as to vent and vent, otherwise it would be too uncomfortable to hold back.
"Hibiscus, spring flowers." Sitting in the hall, he shouted loudly.
"Hey, here we are."
"Girl, what are you looking for from us?"
"Furong, you go to the study to get more paper, Chunhua, you go to the kitchen to boil some paste, girl, I'm going to make a novelty in a few days, and I'll teach you how to play when it's done, it's fun." Playing cards are very simple to make, and you can make them with a little thicker paper.
Anyway, there is no entertainment here, just teach them to play cards and pass the time, and the Chinese New Year's Eve will not be so boring that they want to sleep.
If it weren't for the conditions, she would definitely make a pair of mahjong, and mahjong is the entertainment culture of the Celestial Empire.
"Yes." The two men split up.
Both of them moved very fast, and it didn't take much effort to make cards, and soon she made a few decks of cards and called everyone in the family over.
"Sister, what's the fun?" Recently, Qiao Bai has been seriously reviewing, the master has assigned a task, they will face a small test, to test their level, the little guy has not been pestering his brother and sister recently, except for the encounter will not be, he can hardly be seen, if it is not for everyone to be present today, he will probably continue to deal with books.
"Don't be so nervous, it's okay if you fail the test, it's just a small test, don't make yourself like a big enemy." Qiao Xi smiled and touched Qiao Bai's little head, she hadn't been so ravaged for a long time.
"Your sister is right, it's good to relax." Qiao Song has always echoed his sister, and this time is no exception.
"I'm not nervous, I know." Qiao Bai took the opportunity to escape from Qiao Xi's clutches. I had to get my sister to change this habit, and her hair was messed up. "Sister, what are you letting us see?"
"That's it, Solitaire. Use it to pass the time when you're bored. "Take out the freshly made cards like a treasure and show off.
"How do you play?" There are numbers on it, and this sister has taught, so he knows it.
Next, Qiao Xi taught the playing of solitaire twice, and soon everyone started playing, and Qiao Xi also joined them to play solitaire.
Of course, there is a bet to play cards, but she won't let them gamble money, so she proposes that whoever loses should put a note on their faces, and everyone unanimously agrees on this bet.
It's a lot of fun, and the worst losers in the end are Chunhua and Qiao Bai, the two of them are too simple, they can't fight those old foxes at all, and losing is also a matter of common sense.
Chunhua and Qiao Bai were each pasted with countless small notes, and their entire faces were submerged under the notes except for their eyes, which made everyone laugh.
Time passed little by little, the atmosphere of the New Year became more and more intense, every household began to buy, no matter how hard life is, the New Year still has to be happy, Qiao Xi also began to take action, wantonly buy New Year's goods, some are used for the New Year's home, eat, and some are to be used to give away, such as Juxian Building, Renjitang, and Chen Lao also has to send a copy, and finally there are the villagers of Qiaojia Village who work in her house and those who work in the cookie house, everyone has New Year's gifts, In addition, there is a year-end bonus, which can be regarded as an affirmation of their work.
This purchase is a lot, but fortunately there are a few more carriages at home, otherwise I don't know how many times I have to run to buy all the things.
Qiao Song and Qiao Bai also prepared New Year's gifts for their masters, and sent them to their masters before the New Year, and the masters praised the two of them even more.
On the day of Chinese New Year's Eve, the cookie house began to suspend business, and it did not open until after the Lantern Festival, the news was released early in the morning, and the people who received the news began to customize the things needed for New Year's gifts, and in the last few days, the cake house was busy, and the list received wanted to vomit, but fortunately, Chinese New Year's Eve came soon, liberated them, packed up their baggage and returned to Qiaojia Village.
After the carriage entered Qiaojia Village, it went towards Qiao's house, and when the people from the cake house came back, Qiao Xi sent someone to invite Qiao Siye, who was working in the field, to come over.
After everyone arrived, there was something to do, and the flower hall was full of all kinds of things, such as food and clothing.
As soon as everyone saw this posture, they knew that this was specially prepared for them by Qiao Xi.
"Everyone is here, I won't say much about polite words, I just hope that everyone will continue to work hard in the coming year, as long as you are willing to work, there will always be good days." I am very grateful for everyone's hard work this year, and the effort is always rewarded. These are the gifts I have prepared for you for the New Year. Everyone has it, but everyone is different, some have more and some have less, not favoritism, but according to time. ”
"I'm fair, Grandpa Lin came the earliest, so he has the most things, followed by Uncle Ming, Uncle Li, Uncle Zhen and Uncle Yun, yours are the same, yours will be a little less, because the cookie shop hasn't been open for long. Yours will have as many as they will in the coming year. It's all with your names on it, go get it yourself. ”
"Girl, I don't need mine." Fourth Master Qiao was really embarrassed to take his share, he didn't actually do anything, just sent Qiao Bai, and didn't do anything else.
"You take what is given to you. I remember you well. ”
"Hey...... Good. As soon as Fourth Master Qiao understood the meaning of her words, he didn't refuse.
Everyone got their own New Year's gifts according to their own names and prepared to say goodbye to Qiao Xi.
"Wait, it's not over yet, what are you anxious about?" They thought that was all there was to it, and that there were no surprises waiting for them.
"Girl, there won't be any more, will it?" Fourth Master Qiao was shocked by his own thoughts.
"That's right, this is a year-end bonus for you, everyone has collected it, let's go back and see it."
Everyone took their share, left Qiao's house in a big way, and went home.
