Chapter 788: Motherless Child

Delivering food on Chinese New Year's Eve is naturally not so simple.

Aunt Zhou opened the food box and saw that it was indeed an unusual dish, and it could be seen that it was carefully selected by Li Qianyue.

Looking at An'er's expectant look and looking in from time to time, Aunt Zhou seemed to understand something.

She smiled and said: "Thank you little boy for your kindness, it's cold, let's come in and say, I'll go tell our master." ”

After that, he greeted Li Qianyue and An'er and went in.

An'er breathed a sigh of relief on her face, fortunately Aunt Zhou invited them in, otherwise she really didn't know what to say in order to bring Li Qianyue as a guest on Chinese New Year's Eve.

"Master, Mr. Li has brought you food."

Aunt Zhou's voice was loud, and she soon entered the main hall, she handed over the food box, and the little maid who was waiting at the dinner table caught it.

When I lifted the lid of the food box, I saw that it was indeed a good dish.

Ji Yushen didn't look at it, but Zhao Dahu saw it, and he also showed it to Zhao Yun'er.

Zhao Yun'er only glanced at it, and when she saw Li Qianyue, she jumped off the table happily, "Brother Qianyue, have you had dinner?" ”

The lively and cheerful little girl held her hand, which made Li Qianyue blush a little.

He was grateful to Zhao Yun'er in his heart, if it weren't for her enthusiasm, he was afraid that he would be embarrassed to come suddenly today.

Compared with Zhao Yun'er's enthusiasm, Zhao Dahu is a person with direct decision-making power, he generously slapped the chair, "Come, big nephew, sit down and eat together!" ”

Li Qianyue glanced up at Ji Yushen, but Ji Yushen did not react indifferently.

He was a little disappointed, so he had to thank Zhao Dahu, "No need, Uncle Zhao." I, I'm here to deliver food, and I will give Mr. Ji and you an early greeting. I ......"

"What am I?"

Zhao Dahu is straightforward, he knows that Li Qianyue came over at this time, it must be more than just delivering food.

New Year's greetings don't have to be so early.

Thinking that Li Qianyue's courtyard was deserted all year round, and several servants had taken leave to go home at the end of the year, he was afraid that only An'er would accompany him at this Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.

How lonely it should be.

He became Ji Yushen's master, and generously invited Li Qianyue to the table, "There are not many of our two families, and it is lonely to celebrate the New Year separately, so it is better to eat together." Besides, my Yun'er is still a stranger when she first came to the capital, the two of you are generally old, and you will make her happy for the New Year together, don't you want to? ”

Zhao Dahu found an excuse to let Li Qianyue stay.

Li Qianyue looked at Ji Yushen timidly, Ji Yushen just drank the tea slowly and methodically, and there was no expression of objection.

This is probably the default.

Li Qianyue was happy in her heart, so she sat next to Zhao Yun'er.

The servant put the dishes sent by Li Qianyue on the table, and there were already more than a dozen dishes on the table, which was even more sumptuous.

Zhao Dahu was not polite at all, weighing An'er's status beside Li Qianyue, and simply invited An'er to sit down and eat.

An Ergu refused, "Thank you Uncle Zhao for your kindness, I was originally a servant in the family, standing and serving, you don't have to be polite." ”

She said this with some slurry.

The servants in the family seem to say that she is the servant of Li Qianyue's family, and it seems that she is the servant of Ji Yushen's family.

Zhao Dahu vaguely heard the sound outside the strings and didn't insist anymore.

Ji Yushen put down the teacup and moved the chopsticks, and everyone followed the chopsticks to start eating.

There were two children who frowned and whispered from time to time, and this Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was quite warm.

After eating, Li Qianyue naturally stayed and kept the New Year with everyone.

There are few people in the family, and there is nothing special about keeping the New Year, it is nothing more than Ji Yushen reading in the room, Uncle Zhao sitting on the side playing with his new dagger, and talking to Ji Yushen from time to time.

Ji Yushen basically ignored him.

Li Qianyue and Zhao Yun'er sat on the couch outside, and the two children were much more interesting to keep the New Year, and the kang table was full of small toys and various preserved fruit snacks to prevent them from dozing off.

Zhao Yun'er grabbed the Nine Rings, which Zhao Dahu bought for her, and the special one she bought was made of jade, although it was not as valuable as the real good jade, but it was better than usual.

Zhao Dahu heard it from somewhere, saying that children play this to exercise their brains and grow up smart.

It's a pity that although Zhao Yuner was born smart and beautiful, she is the same as Zhao Dahu on the inside, she is a reckless and straightforward foundation, and she can't take the road of being smart.

She played with it impatiently a few times, and then threw it on the table, "This nine-link is very difficult to solve, partial and expensive, I heard that my father spent five taels of silver to buy it." Five taels of silver, enough for me to eat sugar gourds for a year. ”

Li Qianyue remembered that she had just relieved herself, and she had a good impression of her in her heart, so she smiled and took the jade ring in her hand.

When I got it, I saw that it was ordinary, just using jade instead of the original copper ring.

"It's simple."

"What, you're going to solve it?"

Zhao Yun'er was very surprised, "I haven't solved it for several days, can you really solve it?" ”

Zhao Yun'er said that she had been explaining for several days, probably just taking a look at it every day, and then throwing it aside impatiently, right?

Li Qianyue nodded and took it, "This is actually not difficult, I solved it when I was five years old." ”

As he spoke, he fiddled with the jade ring in his hand for a while, Zhao Yun'er's eyes widened, and he saw that his hands were dexterously shuttling in the jade ring for a while, and he easily untied the ring.

"Wow!"

Zhao Yun'er put her hands on her cheeks and looked adoring.

Li Qianyue concocted the same method, and untied the rest and handed it to Zhao Yun'er, and for a while, the jade rings were all unraveled, and they were clear and crisp one by one.

Zhao Yun'er stacked them all, neatly and neatly, but it was not enough, and she also put a jade ring on her hand.

"Hah, you see."

It turned out that she had small hands, and after the jade ring was untied, it was put on her hand, which happened to be a jade bracelet.

Li Qianyue said: "Do you like jade bracelets?" ”

Zhao Yun'er pouted, "I like it." But my dad wouldn't buy it, I didn't. ”

"Why don't you buy it?"

Zhao Yun'er made a grimace, "My father is a rough man, how do you know what girls like?" You see, he'd rather spend money on this nine-link than know how to buy a bracelet for his daughter, he's too careless! ”

Li Qianyue's eyes rolled, and he thought for a while: "I have it at home, I'll give you one another day." ”

"Really?"

Zhao Yun'er rejoiced, and said, "You are a boy, how can you have a girl's bracelet at home?" ”

Li Qianyue said: "It was left by my mother, and my mother was gone a long time ago." She left a lot of jewelry, I left a few things to see people, I don't need so much, I can give you one. ”

It turns out that his mother is long gone.

Zhao Yun'er looked at him, with some sympathy, and unconsciously got closer, "My mother is also long gone, and the two of us have the same hard life, without a mother's child." ”
