Gu Enyang has been making preparations with both hands, in addition to the county next to Shouyang County, he has also sent people to investigate the situation, just like Qu Qingyan said, the small vendors on the road have used treasure money to pay protection money before.

Since March this year alone, those people have refused to accept treasure money, and the treasure money stored in the hands of many small vendors has become waste paper, and there have been several homicides in various counties for this reason.

In Gu Enyang's opinion, these people should not have account books in their hands, which obviously requires gang action, and there must always be a basis for distributing profits.

But he sent Jinyiwei to Shouyang County to turn the courtyard of Zhou Heshui and Feng Maocai and his party upside down, but they didn't see anything.

"What do you think kid Qingyan should do next?"

"Before, I went to Shouyang County with my teacher to be a bit startled, so Zhou Heshui and Feng Maocai should be on guard, but if Shouyang County doesn't work, we can also go to Linxian County to try it."

Gu Enyang looked at Qu Qingyan deeply, lowered his eyes and stroked his beard: "I've been there, but I haven't." ”

Shaanxi Province has had three waves of Qincha in the middle of the year, and if they were local officials here, they would also have some fears.

Even so, Qu Qingyan had no choice, she looked at Gu Enyang in embarrassment, "The kid can't think of a way to do it for a while." ”

"Well, I'll write a song and send it to Beijing, don't think about it, let's prepare for the New Year."

In a few days, the government will be sealed, and once the seal is sealed, it will take nearly a month to open the seal next year.

Qu Qingyan always felt that Gu Enyang mentioned the New Year with some deep meaning, but he couldn't judge why it was for a while.

had to respond with Yu Youtai and them.

This is the second New Year in Shaanxi, whether it is Qu Qingyan, Qianshan, Da'an, and Mama Wang in her courtyard, they have all become extremely indifferent.

The food in the New Year and the correction and cleaning in the courtyard were carried out in an orderly manner, but the war in the northwest continued, Qu Qingyan originally didn't want to hang too many red lanterns in the house, and he always felt that this was disrespectful to the soldiers who died in the border pass.

"If they had known about it, they would have been glad to have remembered you, but have you ever wondered why they died on the battlefield? What they ask for is nothing more than the peace of the country and the people, and if the red lantern can bring such a good fortune, they are afraid that they would like you to fill the courtyard. ”

At the age of twenty-eight, looking at the cold courtyard, Yu Youtai still couldn't restrain himself from passing through the small door and taking Qu Qingyan out to educate him.

Qu Qingyan smiled self-deprecatingly, but he was a little relieved because of his words: "It's me who drilled the tip of the horns again." ”

Only at this time, the craftsmen had already gone home, and it was too late to repair the courtyard, so they could only use red silk and red lanterns to decorate as much as possible.

"I didn't expect to celebrate the New Year with a few of you juniors in my lifetime."

Gu Enyang stroked his beard and held a wine glass, and a brazier was placed in the four corners of the room to warm the room, he had already drunk a few glasses of wine before, and his face was slightly flushed at this time, but it also seemed that people's spirits had been better for a long time.

Qu Qingyan never thought that one day he would sit with a cabinet minister like Gu Enyang for a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.

She sat in the lowest position, and although she didn't feel inhibited, she didn't make a casual noise.

"How can you all be so quiet, this is Chinese New Year's Eve, no matter how many troubles there are in this year, we have to put it down tonight, after tonight is the new year, everything will be fine."

Whether it is the border pass, the court or the northwest, all of them will be fine in the new year.

Because of his words, the three of them faintly showed a bit of pride in their hearts, and the three of them were not old, they were full of enthusiasm.

An old fox like Gu Enyang knew how to fool them, even if he was drunk.

The wind swirled and opened the window, and a cold wind carried snow foam through the window, Qu Qingyan hurriedly got up and closed the window.

"It's snowing, good, good, Ruixue is a good year, it's really a good luck."

Gu Enyang raised his head and poured another glass of wine into his throat, and when he put down the wine glass, he couldn't help but clap his hands in admiration.

Gu Ruohong clenched the wine jug with some worry: "Grandfather, the imperial doctor said that you are not in good health and can't drink more." ”

"What do you kid know! It's the Chinese New Year, so I should drink more. ”

Qu Qingyan looked at the quarrel between their ancestors and grandchildren lightly, Qu Qingwen was also so relaxed when he was with Qu Wenhai, he didn't hesitate to say what he wanted, and he never had to think carefully about whether there was something wrong with that sentence.

Gu Enyang drank two pots of wine with an open stomach, and was helped by Yu Youtai and Gu Ruohong to go to the backyard to rest.

The three of them stayed in the room, but they wanted to keep the year.

"You don't have much for dinner, why don't I ask the housekeeper to prepare a pot and watch the New Year while enjoying the snow and drinking, how about it?"

Yu Youtai asked Qu Qingyan when he said this, but it was Gu Ruohong who answered: "Okay, good, that's what Brother Yu wants." ”

Yu Youtai, who was called by Brother Yu, subconsciously frowned, Yu Youtai didn't correct Gu Ruohong, but that guy refused to listen no matter what he said, which made him quite helpless.

"Teacher, I call you a teacher, but Qing Chong calls your brother, why do I think he is taking advantage of me?"

Seeing Yu Youtai frowning, Qu Qingyan also joined in the fun, Gu Ruohong would fall to her every time she shouted Brother Yu's smug eyes, did she really think she didn't see it?

"Don't join in the fun."

Thinking of shouting out from Qu Qingyan's mouth, Brother Yu ...... Yu Youtai's heart was extremely awkward, but he couldn't say why it was awkward.

"Ruohong, I also discussed family affairs with your aunt back then, no matter where you come from, you should treat me as an elder, Brother Yu...... Don't shout again next time. ”

was disturbed by Qu Qingyan and lost the opportunity to call Yu Youtai a brother, Gu Ruohong was extremely unhappy.

But every time he called Brother Yu Youtaiyu, Gu Enyang was not present, if Gu Enyang listened to him, he was afraid that he would be educated by Gu Enyang.

After all, with such a background, Yu Youtai can also be regarded as his uncle.

Someone put the pot under the eaves of the porch, and there were braziers in the four corners of the table, even so, Qu Qingyan was almost blown away by the wind as soon as he went out.

"Why are you so delicate, I don't know if I look at your small body, I think you're a girl."

Gu Ruohong was relieved of the title of Brother Yu just now, and he was very happy to see Qu Qingyan like this at this time.

Qu Qingyan never cared about others saying that she was a sissy, she only glanced at Gu Ruohong with a tolerant and loving gaze.

"Well, since you know that I'm not in good health and can't stand the stimulation, I guess Qing Chong won't have a collision with me in words in the future, right?"
