Chapter 041: Ice Elimination

In December, the Chinese New Year is just around the corner. The weather is getting colder day by day, and the smell of the New Year is getting heavier day by day.

Xu Yuan has lived many cold and cold years in modern times, and now when she comes to this world, she is infected by the lively atmosphere here.

Xu Yuan still often goes to accompany the old lady, and Du Jingqing often comes to teach her to learn words, and the rest of the time, she still nests in the small courtyard, reading books in a daze.

There is nothing to do in her small courtyard, and the maids and daughters are not like the subordinates in other parts of the Xu Mansion who are busy working for the New Year, and the biggest job to do on weekdays is just to sort out the gifts sent to Xu Yuan by everyone in the Xu Mansion.

The young master and wife of the Xu Mansion have sent a lot of gifts to Xu Shuyuan. Among them, Mrs. Xu sent the most things, and the head of the Xu Mansion, Xu Guogong, and the third young master Xu Lansheng, who had not yet met, also brought gifts.

Xu Guogong gave a pair of gold and silk ruby bracelets, which looked a little cheesy, but it was the kind of very expensive cheesy.

And the ...... sent by Third Young Master Xu

Xu Yuan looked at the box of sundries in front of him, felt a little pain in his head, and said with his forehead: "Ah, which grocery store did the third young master move to my yard?" ”

Xiaolan and Shuyu on the side were laughing and packing up a bunch of things in the box.

From white jade earrings, sandalwood hair combs, to Zhenjiang bamboo paper, crimson Kodan, and even a glass music box......

Although there are many and miscellaneous things, and there are no particularly valuable things, it can be seen that each one is not a random gift, and it is also a piece of the third brother's heart.

Xu Yuan had just instructed the maids to send these things back to the warehouse, and when she remembered it, she hurriedly said, "Hey, wait! Don't go yet, take out the little scissors inside. ”

Among the gifts sent by Xu Lansheng, there was also a set of needlework for the girl's family. Xu Yuan especially likes the small scissors in the middle.

However, she didn't plan to learn from female workers, Xu Yuan took the scissors and said to Shuyu: "I see that you are busy cutting window flowers these days, and I want to learn too." ”

Shuyu smiled: "Okay, Miss, but you have to wait for us to send the things back to the warehouse from the third young master, and then get some paper." ”

Seeing this, Xiaolan said, "There is no other pastime in this snowy day, miss, I also want to learn from Sister Shuyu." ”

When they returned to the house laughing and laughing, they saw Xu Yuan holding small scissors and cutting the air in front of them.

Shuyu was holding a thick pile of red paper in her hand, Xu Yuan hurriedly snatched the red paper, and said, "I'll try it first." You can bring a small stool and sit down. ”

The three of them formed a circle in front of several cases. Xu Yuan took the red paper in her hand and folded it a few times, and cut it a few times with scissors, she unfolded the paper with hope, but unexpectedly cut out a four-like one.

Xu Yuan sighed, put the paper aside, and said, "Shuyu, you come and teach me, I can only cut and play by myself." ”

Soyu smiled and agreed, picked up paper and scissors, and slowly cut them while explaining the steps in detail.

Shuyu's voice was gentle and soft, which was not the same as her usual somewhat impatient personality. Xu Yuan held his head and listened for a while, and said, "Shuyu, you are quite good. ”

According to what Shuyu said, Xiaolan has cut out a simple pattern, and the paper in Xu Yuan's hand has been cut out by her four or five sheets.

Xiaolan smiled: "Miss, what are you doing here?" ”

Xu Yuan glanced at her, picked up a new piece of red paper and shook it in front of Xiaolan, and said, "Cut window flowers, what do you say I'm doing?" ”

At this moment, there was a maid outside the door of the house: "The old lady and the girl are here." ”

The three of them hurriedly got up, Xu Yuan crumpled the scrapped red paper and threw it down, and went to meet them.

"Old lady, Sister Qinqing." Xu Yuan obediently bowed slightly, looked at the old lady and said, "Why does the old lady have time to come and see me?" ”

The old lady took Du Jingqing's hand and walked inside, while Xiaolan and Shuqing next to her hurriedly moved the embroidery pier for the two.

The old lady glanced at Xu Yuan with a smile and said, "What?" Will you come and see me, or will I not come to see you? ”

Xu Yuan shrunk her neck, sat down next to the old lady, and said, "How dare I, the old lady came to see me, it's too late for me to be happy!" ”

"Your sister happened to come to greet me, and she was going to come to play with you, so I brought her with me." The old lady said this, while being intrigued by the things on the case: "Yo? Is this going to cut paper? What did Yuan'er cut out? Show me. ”

Xu Yuan was cheeky, pointed to the piece of red paper on the table, and said, "Well, here." ”

A room full of people, including the maids, couldn't help but cover their mouths and laugh.

Du Jingqing quipped: "Sister Yuan's reunion is a good intention." ”

Speaking of paper-cutting, the old lady has something to say. She picked up the scissors and paper and said, "Today, I will show you a hand too." ”

Hearing the old lady's words, everyone was stunned, and for a while, they all held their breath and stared intently at the movements of the old lady's hands.

When the old lady put down the scissors and slowly unfolded the paper, Du Jingqing exclaimed: "Ah! It's the same spring as the deer and the crane! The old lady is a good craft. ”

The old lady looked quite complacent, picked up her work and looked at it carefully, and said, "I haven't done it for a long time, and I'm a little rusty." If Yuan'er learns, I can teach you too. ”

Xu Yuan has no reason.

There was a stove in the house, and there were such a bunch of people gathered around, it was lively, and the warmth was so warm that Xu Yuan's whole person was dizzy, and he didn't learn a few points of paper-cutting skills, but other feelings intensified in such an atmosphere.

It wasn't very bright outside, so you had to use your eyes here, so the house was lit up.

Under the combined illumination of natural light and lights, the old lady was extremely loving, and when she talked to Xu Yuan, she was also extremely gentle.

Even the little daughter in front of her, who has been lost for a long time, has been stubbornly refusing to call her mother after coming back, only calling the alienated "old lady".

Even if you have a heart of stone, it is difficult not to be moved by such sincerity. And Xu Yuan does not have a heart of stone, but is extremely eager for the warmth of feelings.

Maybe it's because the current atmosphere is so moving that she can't help but want to become the real Xu Shuyuan.

have already accepted the current results, so there are some things that you don't have to cling to. Many things do not yet know cause and effect, but the warmth in front of us is always real.

"I still have business to deal with, so let's stop here for today. Another day, when you are free, I will teach you how to cut paper. ”

When the sun hangs down to the horizon of the sky, Mrs. Xu is leaving, and when the year comes, she is always busy with all kinds of trivial matters.

Xu Yuan didn't do anything more, only smiled at the old lady.

"Got it, mother."
