The Chinese New Year's Eve of Changtai 35 is coming soon, the Shen family has a lively reunion year, and even the reunion dinner of Shen Zeru's family is also eaten at the Shen house on Jingtai Street, not to mention how lively the atmosphere is. Adults don't talk about it, young people and children get together to set off firecrackers to receive the New Year's money, even Shen Qingde's children will walk a few steps tremblingly, Shen Yuhong and Shen An's are watching from the side, the rule of hugging grandchildren and not holding children is implemented thoroughly, I can only hear what Shen Qingde is babbling in his mouth, which makes Shen Zejing and Shen Yushi laugh for a while, and even the New Year's red envelope is a lot heavier.

Shen Ning still cried on Chinese New Year's Eve. Listening to the rumbling of firecrackers, watching the fireworks shine, mixed with the complex emotions of the past and present lives, and the unspeakable regret and determination, Shen Ning's mind went blank. Now there are only tears left, and she didn't alarm Qiu Ge and Liu Ma and the others, and when she got up in the morning, she was already quietly gone.

What has been done has passed, what has been done has not yet come, and there is nothing new under the sun. After experiencing the Spring Festival of the thirty-sixth year of Changtai, Shen Ning only felt fortunate when she woke up, after a year, she was one year older, yes, she can be regarded as old, although she is still only a thirteen-year-old villain in Shen Mansion.

On the second day of the first lunar month, after worshipping the Bodhisattva of the New Year, the Shen family began to live in Jingzhao one after another. Shen Zegao and Shen Yuxian stayed in Jingzhao for a short time, and they would return to their places of duty on the sixth day of the first lunar month at the latest, and it became an urgent matter to take them to various banquets, Shen Huashan and Shen Zejing were both dispatched, and there were two or three gatherings every day to go, although only to show their faces.

For example, the banquet of Chu Yan's house, the servant of the ministry, although he did not bring Shen Yu and other family members, Shen Zejing took his younger brother Shen Zegao and eldest son Shen Yuxian to go. Chu Yan is arrogant, but after all, he is Shen Zejing's chief official, and there are also officials Lang Zhongcen Xiaobai, Shen Jinghua and others who go together, the officials are in charge of the promotion and retreat of civil officials, and there are many people who go to Chu's house to attend the banquet, Shen Zejing and others did not stay until the end, so they left.

For example, at the banquet of the Guozi Festival Wine Wei Fuli's family, Shen Huashan also took Shen Zejing, Shen Zegao, and Shen Yuxian to go, and also saw his grandson Shen Yuhong's future Taishan Lord Cheng Fangyuan. Shen Zeru naturally went, these people were all familiar with each other, Shen Huashan and the others were much more relaxed, and the atmosphere was much closer and warmer. Wei Fuli also complained about why he didn't bring Shen Yuhong over to let him palm his eyes or something, which provoked Shen Huashan to say that next time, next time, and asked how the family was doing, and when he learned that everything was fine, he and Wei Fuli and others shouted and drank wine.

Shen Ning also followed Shen Yu to the imperial historian Gong's house to go to the banquet, Gong Xinci is a few years older than Shen Ning, and has already made a marriage with the grandson of Wei Liangcha, the Hanoi Provincial Observer, and will get married in May, when Shen Ning and several other little girls go to Gong's house, she is still embroidering dowry. There is nothing to say about the little girl's family getting together, and the most talked about is Gong Xinci's marriage, Shen Ning also echoed a few words, thinking that everyone's marriage is inseparable from the consideration of the right family. Gong Xinci's marriage was not good or bad, Shen Ning was not familiar with her, so she only smiled faintly, and took a few more glances at the maid Cai Fan mentioned by Qiu Ge, and felt a little familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere, but after searching in her mind to make sure that she didn't know this person, she thought that the maids had similar temperaments, so she didn't care. It didn't take long for her to leave with Shen Yu, who was pregnant and couldn't stay outside for too long.

On the fifth day of the first lunar month, the Shen family also held a banquet and invited many people to eat, drink and make friends. There was a family banquet and a flower festival banquet in March last year, and the ladies also had a lot of contacts, and they gradually became familiar with each other. Needless to say, the in-laws of this family, for example, Gu Zicheng's wife is less flattering and more close - her husband Gu Zicheng is very valued by Shen Zejing. Shen Zegao, Shen Yuxian and others also met these people one by one, and they didn't say anything about the scene, anyway, the people who came had a lot of contact with the Shen family, and they didn't worry about not meeting each other in the future, but when they were still in Jingzhao, many names got together.

After the Shen family banquet, Shen Zegao and Shen Yuxian left Jingzhao successively. It was Shen Zegao who set off before Shen Yuxian, and said to Shen Yuwen and Shen Yutao's two sons, telling them to serve and honor their grandfather, explaining that they would listen to their uncles and aunts, and that they wanted to live in harmony with their brothers and sisters, so they reluctantly left. Shen Yuwen and the others thought of Shen Cai's family who was far away in Lingnan, and thought of adapting to the life of Jingzhao, and their mood was also very complicated for a while, and they were even more reluctant to let Shen Zegao leave, and Shen Zejing and others were also sad, and promised Shen Zegao that he would take good care of these two nephews so that he and his brother and daughter-in-law could relax.

When Shen Yuxian left, Shen Zejing did not send it. Everything that should be said has been said, the man is ambitious in all directions, and he doesn't have to cry and cry, what is this like, so he is very relieved to participate in the banquet of Cen Xiaobai's family. Shen An's eyes were red, her son was still young, and she still didn't go to Xiangzhou with him this time. Shen Qingde also seemed to sense that he was separated from his father, he was very quiet, he looked at Shen Yuxian with wide eyes, and he didn't cry sensibly. Shen Yu on the other side had been wiping his tears for a long time, and the flesh that fell from his body was now leaving, and he was reluctant to say anything. Shen Ning and others also told the eldest brother one by one to pay attention to the body and send more letters, etc., Shen Yuxian looked at the room of people who saw them off, mother, wife and children, younger brothers and sisters, and suddenly felt a deep sense of responsibility, these are the people he wants to care for and cherish, and he will shelter them from the wind and rain in the future.

As Shen Zegao and Shen Yuxian left Jingzhao and Shen Huashan and others to go to the court, the atmosphere of the New Year gradually dispersed, and the Shen family was also a lot lonely. Especially Shen Yu and Shen An, they couldn't lift their spirits for a few days, and the servants were also silent and silent, and Mingxuan and Liuheyuan were quiet.

Shen Yu's family also pushed a few banquets, she had a big belly, and others took it for granted, and she also sent a lot of greeting supplements, which made Shen Yu's family happy a lot. Shen An's family also gradually recovered under Shen Qingde's teasing, the feeling that children bring to adults is fresh and laughing every day, and Shen An's is not so concerned about Shen Yuxian.

In a blink of an eye, it is the Lantern Festival, the Lantern Festival is also known as the Shangyuan Festival in Daying, it is a festival of reunion, and it is a festival for men and women who have not married, because on this day, there are Lantern Festival lanterns in the East Market and Xifang, which can allow boys and girls to participate, and the meaning of the Flower Dynasty Festival is also similar.

Early in the morning, Shen Ning went to Heming Xuan to say goodbye, Shen Yu's stomach was already very big, because Shen Yuxian's depressed will to leave Jingzhao had slowly recovered, and at this moment he was listening to Shen Hu's talk about the arrangements for the Lantern Festival, followed by Shen Ning and Shen Jia, two little girls. As a concubine, Shen Hu didn't need to report to Shen Yu's about related work, but she thought that she was temporarily taking care of family affairs, and she had to let Shen Yu's heart be at ease.

"Then I'll take a few of them to Xifang to have a look at it in the evening." In the end, Shen Hu said this, as soon as these words came out, Shen Yao and Shen Jia's eyes lit up, obviously they came to Mingxuan to get this matter as soon as possible. These words were also heard by Aunt Li, Aunt He, Shen Mi and Shen Wan, who just entered the door, the two little girls and the maid needless to say, even the two aunts and mother-in-law had some expectations on their faces - it is really the Lantern Festival Lantern Festival is very lively, not only there are lanterns, but also acrobatics, of course, the snacks and snacks are indispensable, Aunt Li and Aunt He both sighed slightly, recalling the Lantern Festival when they were young.

Shen Wan was naturally the happiest, the people present were the youngest, listening to everyone talking about the Shangyuan Lantern Festival, imagining the excitement of the Lantern Festival, and couldn't wait to go out immediately. She forgot the rules and etiquette that Aunt He usually taught her, and when I took out the lanterns I made myself, the lanterns outside were not eye-catching, which made people laugh, but fortunately she had a straightforward temperament, and Shen Yu didn't care, but Aunt He quietly pulled Shen Wan.

Shen Ning looked at everyone's expectant looks, and couldn't say the sentence "I don't want to go", especially when Shen Yushi told her to play with her aunt and sister, she couldn't say anything, so she had to smile and admit yes. When he returned to Qingzhu Residence, even Qingzhu Residence was full of anticipation and lively atmosphere, Shen Ning sighed slightly, too, Chun Shi and their eldest girls will be fifteen years old this year, and it is normal to look forward to the Lantern Festival like this. Shen Ning remembered the age of these maids, the Shen family's family rule was that the first-class maids around the master could not get married until they were eighteen years old, but the marriage needed a process, and after the marriage, it was time to consider their marriage, and Shen Ning decided to plan for them. In the previous life, they followed her, first married into the Five Princes' Mansion, and then entered the palace, until they died, they did not marry, in this life, she wanted to give them a different life.

Shen Ning suddenly remembered the previous life, and he would always unconsciously think of the things of the previous life, and intertwine the things of the previous life with the experience of this life, maybe this is the sequelae of rebirth.

In the evening, Shen Hu took a group of female dependents and set off for Xifang. The closer to Xianghe Street, the more people there are, everyone is dressed up, and the boys and girls are each holding a lantern in their hands, which is the biggest feature of the Shangyuan Lantern Festival. These young boys and girls are all pink Feifei, at fifteen or sixteen o'clock, cardamom branches appeared, such a scene made Shen Ning feel a lot of emotion, such a girl's feelings, she has long gone.

She stood on Xianghe Street and looked at the bustling crowd, and the flowing lanterns reflected the whole street in a brilliant light, as if walking in the sky and clouds. Such a lively, such a beautiful scenery, just like in memory, beautiful. At that time, such a beautiful day, she was the person who appreciated things, it was under the lanterns on Xianghe Street, he gave her a lantern, holding the lantern he sent, her heart was indescribably sweet, and she seemed to feel that in this life, there was such a person who was already complete.

I wish that the love will be full, and the earth will last forever, he said so at the time.

And then, and then......

"There is no more later...... Under this brilliance, in the midst of this playful laughter, Shen Ning muttered, his face was calm.
