On Chinese New Year's Eve the next day, the sound of people's hurried footsteps and joyful cheers sounded early in Zhufu.

Zhu Fan woke up to the sound of small firecrackers, and the position on the side was already cold, and it could be seen that the person had already left.

Rubbing his eyes, Zhu Fan sat up with a yawn, habitually taking a moment to empty himself.

Hexiang came in from outside, Zhu Fan turned his head to look at her when he heard the movement, and found that Hexiang was also dressed up much more festive than usual.

Simple and generous Chaoyun near the incense bun, wearing a silver step that has been flying butterflies, two butterflies fluttering on its head, lifelike, and her lotus lotus-colored dress complements each other.

This is a dress that Hexiang has never had before, and he used to do farm work in the village, and he needed to dress up when he went to the field or something.

What's more, at that time, as long as you dress up a little in the village, someone will immediately come out to gossip, and Hexiang is a well-behaved person, so naturally she won't want to provoke these things.

At present, because of the relationship between Mr. Zhu and them, Mr. Zhu gets a lot more money a month than he used to teach in the village, and he has ten taels of silver a month.

Hexiang is helping the old man to take care of the people under his hands with the big girl, serving the old couple's food, and they can have two taels of silver a month.

Naturally, waiting in front of them, of course, the clothes should not be too shabby, otherwise people who don't know will think that the Zhufu Mansion is harsh on people's food and clothing after they go out.

Zhu Fan couldn't help but joke when he saw her: "Sister Hexiang is getting better and better now, and she almost stunned me." ”

Hexiang took her a new set of clothes from the cabinet, listened to her words and walked to the side of the bed and threw it to her, and said with a smile: "Okay, you, this kind of thing is still useful for you to say to the old lady, to me, don't waste saliva, who doesn't know that the person who stunned you is the third young master." ”

Zhu Fan jumped up from the bed, sorted out his middle coat and began to wear a small woolen vest.

She wasn't annoyed, she smiled and said, "That's natural, our third uncle is so good-looking, can he not be charming?" Let me tell you, you have to look at him less, don't be fascinated by him then, and leave my old man alone, how pitiful. ”

Hexiang blushed this time, and glanced at her angrily, "The girl's family, no wonder the old lady looks at you and deserves it!" ”

Zhu Fan put on a shirt and a small shirt, put on a skirt from his feet, and after hearing the words, he squeezed his eyes at Hexiang, and damaged each other for a while.

On the day of the pupils of the ten thousand households, the new peach was always replaced with the old charm, and after Zhu Fan got up and went to say goodbye to the old lady and the Qin family, he followed the lotus fragrance to paste the Spring Festival couplets that had been prepared a few days ago with the people to paste every door in the house.

Their custom is to have lunch and evening, and breakfast is similar to usual, fried small potatoes with pepper, milky red bean tortillas, green onion and tender tofu brain, fresh meat soup dumplings, fried dumplings with green onions, and black rice and barley porridge.

Since leaving the village, Zhu Fan's breakfast every morning is almost all these things she has never eaten before, and she often eats so well that she feels that her appetite has been nourished now.

The courtyards on both sides of them usually don't eat at the same table, in the end, they are two families.

But today is different, after all, Chinese New Year's Eve, are all lively, so in the morning when Zhu Fan went to see the old lady, the Qin family came in person, and called the old lady to go to her side to eat with Zhu Fan, Zhu Fuhexiang and the close maids.

I didn't see Old Man Zhu and Zhu You and the Third Young Master at the dinner table, so I didn't have to think about it to know that I must have gone out to work, and I couldn't come back until noon.

Qin couldn't help but complain: "I earn a lot of silver, but I often don't see people, and it's boring to think about it." ”

Zhu Fan was nibbling on the side of the apple, and after hearing this, he couldn't help laughing, and said: "It's not interesting to have more silver, I wish grandma to see that she is used to a good life, and if you want me, she likes a lot of silver." ”

"There are no rules," Qin smiled over there, and the old lady glared at Zhu Fan with a smile.

Qin said: "This girl is really fun, no wonder she accepted her third uncle so obediently that she was reluctant to say even a cold word." ”

After speaking, Mama Chen beside her also smiled, "But isn't it, the old slave watched the third young master grow up, and I haven't seen him have a good face with anyone, even to the old man and the old lady, he is also lukewarm, and he is a cold person in the sky, but I didn't expect it to be a thing." ”

"No," Qin stroked his sideburns and looked at Zhu Fan with a smile.

The old lady felt different, "According to me, it was the third young master who subdued this girl, I can see it, she can have no skin and no face for anyone, so she doesn't dare to the third young master, the third young man glared at her, and he didn't even dare to be too angry." ”

With that, there was another burst of laughter in the room.

Zhu Fan's mouth curled, and after snorting, he stood up with a red face, and said, "I won't tell you, I'll play." ”

After that, Chong Qin's blessing was blessed, and he said a word to the old lady with a smile, turned around and ran away.

"Look at it," the old lady shook her head helplessly, and there was no reproach in her eyes.

Qin Shi also shook his head and smiled, and then turned his gaze to Zhu Fu, who had been sitting next to the old lady and didn't talk much, and smiled and looked at her with satisfaction.

"This girl has a quiet temperament, and she should be eighteen after the New Year, right?"

They don't have to wait for the boss to set the rule that it will be the second child's turn, but the eighteen-year-old girl hasn't decided on a marriage yet, so it's a little too much to say.

The old lady also looked at Zhu Fu and said, "No, I was talking to her father about this a few days ago." ”

Qin nodded slightly, "I can talk about things, a few days ago, I heard someone come back from outside and say that he had a relationship with the little boy of Zhou Ji, right?" ”

The atmosphere in Huaicheng is not as strict as that of Shangcheng, although there are many restrictions on unmarried girls, it is not necessary to go out of the door, the ladies can go out with hats and veils, and people like Zhu Fan simply don't even wear a veil.

The topic turned to herself, Zhu Fu blushed uncomfortably, and nodded slightly, "Yes." ”

Qin Shi smiled, "Zhou Ji's little son looked at Pi Nen, in fact, he was crowned this year, and he had some dealings with his family when the old man was still in the city, even if he watched that kid grow up, his character and appearance are also good, Mrs. Zhou is thinking about finding a good wife for him, I don't know what Fu'er thinks?" ”

Although the old lady and Zhu Fu did not get close to each other like Zhu Fan, they were both granddaughters in the end, so they were naturally worried.

Hearing what Qin said this, she also put her eyes on Zhu Fu's face, and smiled faintly: "If it's really a good one, naturally you don't have to choose, the second child is settled, and the boss can't be too far behind." ”

"Yes," Qin took a sip of tea and wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief in his hand, "It's not appropriate to discuss relatives in the first month, if Fu'er thinks that the Zhou family is good, and after the complicated things, I will ask the master to mention it to the Zhou family, and it will ......."

"No, no need!" Zhu Furu sat on pins and needles, and after reacting, she felt that her words were too intense, so she smiled and said, "No, Mrs. Lao and her grandmother bothered, I ...... ...... not in a hurry."

No matter how good the children of the Zhou family were, they were not as good as the third uncle.

"This ......" Qin and the old lady looked at each other, and then smiled: "Isn't it that Fu'er already has a favorite?" ”

Zhu Fu was shocked when she heard this, her face was peachy, and she couldn't speak.

Qin nodded knowingly, "It seems that it is, the girl's family is embarrassed to say that she is thin-faced, but it is the negligence of us elders." ”

"Nope! No......"

Zhu Fu hurriedly laughed and got up, blushed and stammered, and finally simply stomped his feet and went out with a shy excuse.

The sound of Qin laughing with the old lady came from behind him, and Zhu Fu only felt that her heart was beating like thunder, and she ran faster with her skirt.

It's so dangerous, it's almost, it's just a little bit short, and she says what she thinks in her heart.

What kind of Zhou family child, she has no impression at all, and now, her heart has long been filled with that person, and she can no longer tolerate others.

But that person is about to become her brother-in-law, and he ......

"Big girl beware!"

While running and thinking about things, who knew that he heard a shout just after turning the corner, but unfortunately he had already crashed into a person's arms before he could retract his feet.

As soon as the almost familiar aroma entered her nose, Zhu Fu's whole body thundered, and her face turned red and froze.

The hand that the fox was about to hand over the account book to Wang Sheng hung in the air, raising his eyebrows and looking at the top of the head of the person in his arms.

Wang Sheng consciously took the kind of ledger that he was hanging in the air into his hand, stretched his neck and looked at the motionless person, "Big girl? ”

Zhu Fu was startled, her breathing tightened, and she hurriedly withdrew from the man's arms, looking up at him in a panic, but her heart beat irrepressibly when she met those gentle eyes.

"Three less, right...... I'm sorry...... I, I ......"

Just now...... She bumped into his arms just now, he didn't push her away, he was looking at her now, oh my God, what to do......

"It's okay," Fox Zhiyi smiled lightly at the corner of his lips, taking in the discomfort on her face.

Seeing that he could only see his back, Zhu Fu's heart tightened, and he didn't want the title hidden in his heart to blurt out, "Third uncle!" ”

Fox Zhiyi paused, and Wangsheng looked at the eldest girl with wide eyes in disbelief.

It's no wonder that Wang Sheng reacted so much, but since the young master of his family returned to the village, there has always been only Zhu Fanzhu and the second girl who are called like this.

Even if other people are the same generation as Zhu Er Girl, when they see their young master, they all call him the "third young master" in his life, the third uncle or something, not everyone can climb this kiss.

Zhu Fanyu Hexiang happened to go out to buy some small firecrackers and came back to play, just came from the small garden and walked towards the gate.

I didn't want to come out yet, but I heard such a sound first, and the two of them paused on the spot, and stood at the arch from a distance and looked at this side.

Before Zhu Fan could say anything, Hexiang frowned first, "Why is she ......?"
