It just so happens that the craftsmen are also ready-made, but there is not much time before the New Year, and they have to take care of the burial of the old man before the year.

This expansion must be rushed. But fortunately, it was easy to find a short-term job nearby, and as long as they said that they had enough to eat, a lot of people poured up.

Sun Congwen found dozens of people among these people and informed them of the approximate start time.

After the house was fully built, the workers began to expand the lotus pond.

In the end, there were many people, and in less than a month, the expansion of the lotus pond had been completed.

The layout of the house plus some trivial matters was busy for a few more days, because the Chen family has now moved to the capital, and Li Qin asked Sun Boming to send it directly to the capital for the New Year's Festival.

Then, he began to be busy with the funeral of Master Li, and when he was done, it was almost the New Year.

In the first year of coming here, Li Qin spent all kinds of busyness.

By the time Li Qin was really idle, it was already the end of the first month of the New Year.

It usually rarely snows on Gao Qi's side, and even if it does, it is mostly light snow, and there will be no snow after a while.

This year is a little strange, the snow has been falling intermittently for several days, and the grain also said, I'm afraid that the Lantern Festival will not be good.

There was snow outside, but inside the house was warm like spring by the charcoal fire.

There was a blanket on the floor in the middle room, and Li Qin sat barefoot on the thick blanket, although he was only wearing a single shirt, he didn't feel cold at all. At this moment, he was holding a book in his hand and was stunned, and his black hair was only tied with a plain ribbon, and he sat like this, and his black hair hung down to the blanket.

Vanilla sat not far from her own girl doing embroidery, said a word, for a long time did not see the girl respond, looked up and saw her own girl stunned.

In recent days, it seems that she often sees her girl in a daze, and Vanilla got up and poured a glass of water for the girl. Seeing that the girl came back to her senses, she didn't say anything, and Vanilla was busy with the embroidery work in her hands.

A year ago, Ah Liang went back to pick up his father and mother, and now he lives in the Zhuangzi in Fengba, and he can see him all day long. A-Niang has recently had a headache again, and it happened to be snowing these days, so Vanilla wanted to hurry up and make a wipe for A-Niang.

The master and servant were busy with their own work, and the room was quiet for a while, and the rustle of snow outside could be heard.

A short time later, the door of the house was pushed open from the outside.

With two delicate snacks in her hand, she walked in, and when she saw the girl looking at her, she smiled at first, and then said, "This is a new test according to the girl's suggestion, you are trying." ”

Li Qin had returned to normal, and he smiled when he looked at Li'er, "I just said it, if you try it again and again, I won't be able to do it!" Li Qin said, picking up Fluttershy and tasting it.

Li'er looked at her girl, her face full of anticipation.

After Li Qin tasted both, he nodded and said, "It's like that, Li'er's cooking skills are getting better and better now!" ”

When Li'er saw her girl praising her cooking skills, she couldn't help but start giggling. She didn't know what was going on, she just wanted to try what the girl said when she started cooking, but she didn't want to make something, but her own girl liked it very much.

Since then, it has been out of control, and every time there is nothing to do, I will ask the girl a few dishes or snacks, carefully write down what the girl said, and try it over and over again, and then as long as I listen to it, I can make a seven or eight points!

I guess I didn't think I was a cook in my last life!

As soon as you enter the kitchen, you will feel comfortable everywhere, and if you don't cook a meal that day, you will feel uncomfortable.

Li Qin beckoned the herbs to come and try them, and the herbs were also said to be good after eating them, and said that the current cooking skills of the grains are not even comparable to the chefs of Tianxianglou!

After lunch, Li Qin took a short rest, because it was snowing, he couldn't go to Zhuangzi, and he spent the afternoon in the house.

Mrs. Fu wrote a letter a few years ago, although she didn't say it explicitly, but the meaning between the lines was that she wanted Li Qin to go to Beijing with her.

Li Qin is actually very conflicted, she also wants to accompany Mrs. Fu more, but Fengba Zhuangzi has spread that mess, and Uncle Sun always reminds that she can't give up halfway. Even if Li Qin had a heart, he couldn't pull away at this time.

Dong Xiaoxiao also wrote a letter to her, but she didn't say anything big, only said that when the weather warmed up, she would come to Li Qin to play. This is just casual talk, she is busy chasing Chen Yanqing now, where is the time to come here!

Besides, this is not a modern era with developed transportation, and it takes a day or two to run from Jinju to Gaoqi Kuaima! The Dong family naturally wouldn't let her go here alone, unless someone followed.

It's just that what Li Qin didn't expect was that, according to Dong Xiaoxiao, Wu Jingyi really got married to Zhou Yimin. Li Qin carefully recalled the Zhou Yimin he had seen, it should be nothing!

I don't know if this is my own matchmaking.

The next day is the Lantern Festival.

In the first two days, the two girls began to care about whether Li Qin wanted to go shopping for lanterns.

The Li family is still in the new mourning period, so naturally there are no lanterns at home. Although the grains and vanilla look quite stable on weekdays, they will also want to go outside to see when they encounter such a rare day.

Especially vanilla, Ah Liang started asking a few days ago.

Even the nurse, who doesn't express much opinion on weekdays, is persuading Li Qin to take the girls out for a walk. "If the girl is worried about safety, she can let her father and Da Mingzi follow, and I can watch it at home alone!"

It's rare for everyone to be so united, so Li Qin said: "Okay, let Brother Sun follow, and Uncle Sun will stay with you!" ”

And so it was settled.

On this day, the Li family's dinner was exceptionally early.

Before it got dark, Li Qin was hugged by grains and herbs and walked out of the Li family's courtyard.

God seems to know that today is a good day, and the snow has stopped on this day after several days of snowfall.

The streets are cleaned up, and the sun shines through the day, so you don't have to worry about getting your skirts and shoes wet when you walk down the street.

It was not yet dark, and the streets were mostly filled with vendors with lanterns, and there were hardly any people loitering.

Li Qin was dressed in plain clothes, followed by Li'er and Vanilla, followed by Ah Liang and Sun Boming.

"It seems that we came out a little early, and there is no movement outside."

Li Qin also said that he would come out when it got dark, but the two girls felt that they were fooling them, so they pulled Li Qin out early.

"Girl, let's walk around twice and it will be dark, and you can see that someone over there has already lit the lamp." Li'er pointed to the distance and said happily.

Sun Boming proposed at this time: "At this time, there is still some time before dark, the girl can go to the teahouse over there to sit for a while, and when it gets dark, we will come out for a walk!" ”

Li Qin followed the direction of Sun Boming's finger and found that it was the place that Li'er said, so he nodded and said, "Just listen to Brother Sun's arrangement." ”

A few people walked towards the teahouse.

Ah Liang and Vanilla didn't know what to say in the back, and the two sisters and brothers laughed after speaking.

When I entered the teahouse, I found that it was not only a few of them who came early, but there were many people sitting in the teahouse at this time, and they all came early.
