Chapter 604: The New Year's Gift Has Arrived
He also said that here in the capital, Baoling Houjia received a letter, and tore it up without even looking at it, and then Mrs. Baoling Hou found a time to go to Jiafu as a guest, and by the way, she sued Aunt Xue for writing her heart.
Jia Mu was very relieved when she heard this, and laughed: "It's a good tear, if she writes again, you won't care." My family is not involved in this, what are you involved in? ”
Mrs. Bowling Hou sneered, "Who says it's not? Such a white-eyed wolf, it's just enough to help once. She doesn't have a face and no skin, when we all forget about it. ”
As he was talking, Wang came in from outside, and shouted before he entered the flower hall: "Old lady, come and see, Guangzhou's New Year's gift is here." ”
Mrs. Baoling Hou hurriedly stood up and said goodbye, and when she went out, she took a look at Wang, and Wang pulled her and smiled: "Why don't you call me if you come here." ”
Mrs. Baoling Hou smiled politely: "I just came here before, but today I just sent some tea to my aunt, and I bothered you to say hello, where are you busy." ”
As he was talking, a bunch of mothers-in-law outside carried a bunch of boxes and cages in. Mrs. Baoling looked at the words "Jia" written on those cages, and said in her heart that it must have been sent by the Dafang family.
Sure enough, Wang smiled and said: "It's unfortunate that you came, my sister-in-law's New Year's gift was just delivered, I don't have time to entertain you today, you go to your own house, I'll play with you tomorrow." ”
Mrs. Bao Ling didn't want to be annoyed, so she quickly said goodbye and got in the car and went home. On the way home, she was still thinking that this Jia family's big house was separated, and everyone only said that it was definitely not as good as before. But looking at this New Year's gift today, I'm afraid that I am even richer than before.
As a result, when she got home, she hadn't gotten out of the car yet, so she heard the maid outside: "Madam, our family's New Year's gift has also been delivered." ”
Mrs. Baoling was stunned for a moment and asked, "Who sent it?" ”
The maid replied: "Isn't it the Jia family in Guangzhou?" ”
Mrs. Baoling hurriedly lifted the curtains of the car and saw that the two doors were blocked to death, and several boxes had not yet been carried in, and they were all piled up in the corridor.
"So many, all of them are from our family?" Mrs. Baoling was shocked, so many gifts, the New Year's gift she sent was not so old, and it seems that she will go bankrupt next year.
The maid opened the door for her and helped her get out of the car, but before she could take two steps, Shi Xiangyun came over and gave her a proper salute, and asked curiously: "Auntie, whose New Year's gift is this?" ”
Mrs. Baoling Hou smiled: "Your eldest aunt's family." ”
When Shi Xiangyun heard this, he immediately wilted.
Seeing this, Mrs. Baoling asked her, "Well, why are you upset?" ”
Shi Xiangyun pouted: "In previous years, when the sisters were there, they would always have to take me over. Now they went to my grandmother's place, and they didn't come back for a few years, and even my ancestors didn't take me over to play. ”
Mrs. Baoling Hou thought about it for a while, and knew that Shi Xiangyun's temperament would be stuffy if she was locked up at home, so she said to Shi Xiangyun: "Your aunt's niece is also raised by the ancestor, if you are bored, I will send you over, and you can play with her for a few days." ”
Shi Xiangyun was overjoyed when he heard this, and asked his aunt to send her there tomorrow.
Mrs. Baoling said solemnly: "It's almost the New Year, there is no reason to run to other people's houses, after the first day of the new year, I will take you to pay New Year's greetings, and you will stay." ”
Shi Xiangyun didn't say anything when he heard this, and stayed with his aunt to watch the New Year's gift sent by the Jia family in Guangzhou. Seeing the boxes of things, Shi Xiangyun's mouth couldn't close, and she even pulled her aunt and said, "What is this?" ”
Her aunt hadn't seen it either, so she asked for a gift list to see, and after looking at it for a long time, she hesitated: "I'm afraid it's called canned lychee in sugar water?" ”
Shi Xiangyun said that she wanted to taste it, but Mrs. Baoling treated her very pampered, so she immediately ordered someone to open a can, put it in a small bowl, and send it to the flower hall.
After the two entered the flower hall, two bowls of crystal clear lychees in sugar water were served. Shi Xiangyun took a bite, couldn't help but widen his eyes, chewed a few bites, and swallowed it.
"It's so sweet!"
Mrs. Baoling is fond of sweetness, and she also likes this sweet water lychee very much, and when she saw that her niece also likes to eat it, she asked someone to open another can. The two sat in the flower hall and ate two cans of lychees in a row before stopping.
"Auntie, this sweet water lychee is really delicious, I think it's better than fresh." Shi Xiangyun said this, which made Mrs. Baoling laugh for a while.
"Can the lychees you eat compare with those in Guangzhou? I heard that this fruit is not easy to transport, and it has to be picked before it is ripe. On the road, I will cover it in the car, and I will cover it thoroughly when I send it to the capital.
"But can that covered lychee be fresh and delicious? It's either no juice, or it's sour and tooth loss, but I've eaten it fresh once, but only that once. It was still close to Guangzhou when your uncle was released, so I was lucky enough to eat it once. ”
Shi Xiangyun was extremely envious when he heard this, and said: "The eldest aunt's family went to Guangzhou, and the number of times they came to pick me up was less. ”
Mrs. Baoling listened and persuaded: "Although you are a coquette, I have to persuade you. Although relatives are close, don't worry too much about other people's things. If people are willing to treat you well, that's love, if you feel that people don't treat you well because of this, you are not grateful. ”
Shi Xiangyun hurriedly said: "Auntie's lesson is that I just don't have my sister to accompany me, and I am very bored on weekdays, so I have to say a few more words." ”
Seeing that she was really reflective, Mrs. Bao Ling nodded and did not continue.
Xing Shuang's side also received a New Year's gift from the bowling waiter at about the same time. Although the contents are not valuable, they are full of heart.
The marinated bacon sausages were full of cars, as well as Xing Shuang's favorite plate duck and Jia Liang's favorite soy sauce meat, all of which were filled with several large jars.
Bowling has always been unremarkable to the outside world, and it is very low-key. It's a very ordinary gift, but in previous years, there were some calligraphy and painting utensils, but this year it's all food.
Seeing this car, Xing Shuang smiled very happily. Because I came to Guangzhou, I couldn't eat the things I often ate in the capital.
Although Xing Shuang's hometown is not the capital, he has been in one place for more than ten years, and he is used to eating the food there, and he is really not used to leaving at first glance.
Although the things prepared by Mrs. Baoling Hou were not valuable, Xing Shuang was extremely satisfied, and she even felt that the New Year's gift she sent to Baoling Hou's house was not enough.
So after the year, when Lin Zhixiao set off, he went back with a convoy, and Xing Shuang instructed when he left: "These things are inconspicuous here, but the further you go, the more precious they are, you should be careful all the way, don't leave anything behind." But also pay attention to your own safety, if you encounter danger, you can also do without things, just report yourself. ”
Lin Zhixiao was grateful when he heard this, and hurriedly promised loudly that he would deliver the things, and then got on the horse and said goodbye to Xing Shuang.
